BTC On the Road Again | First Frontier Circuit FinalsThis is Beyond the Chutes, and this special Bonus Episode takes you inside the First Frontier Circuit Finals — not from the stands, but from the quiet moments just before it all happens.Recorded on the road at the Penn Harris Hotel, just hours before the final performance, this episode features a real-time conversation with Brianna Waltz — IPRA World Champion breakaway roper, registered nurse, wife, and mom — as she prepares for the biggest runs of the weekend.Brianna shares what preparation really looks like when the draw is posted and the pressure is real. From trusting a quirky but honest horse, to simplifying the barrier, managing mindset, and balancing rodeo with work and family life, this conversation captures rodeo as it unfolds, not years later.There's no polish. No hindsight. Just mindset, preparation, and trust — told in the calm before the gate swings open.BTC was on the road again, recording the stories that matter — right where rodeo happens.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is talking tough when it comes to President Donald Trump, but also pushing back against New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani who wants Hochul and the legislature to raise taxes on the wealthy. Joining NY1's Errol Louis to discuss where New York state is headed in 2026 is Susan Arbetter, the host of Spectrum News' nightly upstate political program "Capital Tonight."  They talked about Hochul and Mamdani's push for universal child care, a possible nuclear power plant expansion, and the repurposing of closed prisons in the Adirondack Park.

Emerging Markets, once the darling of the asset allocators world, have found themselves increasingly discarded by those same allocators. Such became the re-allocation away from them and the magnetism of the US & its technology companies, that as recently as the end of 2024, Emerging Markets were at a 50 year low, relative to the S&P 500. With some improved relative performance, it may be asked if this is a flicker, or are we at the foothills of a bigger reallocation? East Capital's CEO, Peter Håkansson, discusses the opportunities, the lessons drawn from researching them for 3 decades, and what the drop in EM Government bond yields might be signalling. He explains why no central heating might indicate corporate failure ahead, which fundamentals matter, and why they prefer to take their bets in company position sizing, rather than in the country weights. He also discusses Frontier markets, the impact of foreign exchange and as a music lover he is, “reasons to be cheerful!” (Ian Dury & the Blockheads)The Money Maze Podcast is kindly sponsored by Schroders, IFM Investors, World Gold Council and LSEG.Sign up to our Newsletter | Follow us on LinkedIn | Watch on YouTube 

In what turned out to be one of the more unhinged episodes of the Camerosity Podcast, for Episode 103 the gang didn't get the show announcement out until the day of the recording, but that resulted in a near record number of participants, and without a dedicated topic to discuss, we ran the gamut of topics from Theo's recent acquisition of a local lab's Fuji Frontier Scanner, to a very lively discussion about radioactive lenses and why you should not grind up lens glass and snort it. Joining Anthony, Paul, Stephen, Theo, and Mike on this episode were A.J. Gentile, Dan Cuny, Doug Doyle, Fernando Villava, Greg McCreash, Ira Cohen, Jeremy Scott, Mario Piper, Norris Liu, Pat Casey, Ron Gee, Vlad Kern, Will Pinkham, plus a few others who didn't say anything. The show starts off with Theo telling the tale of how a Frontier scanner is coming to him and that turned into a very lively discussion about all scanning options from using professional scanners, flatbed scanners, and then eventually to digitizing with a digital camera. Returning guest Dan Cuny shares some vintage digital cameras he's been working on reviews for including the 0.3 megapixel Canon PowerShot 350 and the floppy disc Sony Mavica!  Continuing on the vintage digital discussion was the revelation that three of the five Camerosity hosts all have the 1990s Minolta RD-175 DSLR! Vlad Kern from ussrphoto.com comes on and shares his recent pickup of a spy camera from a shot down Russian drone found in Ukraine which he recently acquired.  Vlad's crazy spy camera looks straight out of a science fiction movie and the hosts wonder how he managed to get that past European and American customs! Of course, we get into a bit of GAS including a follow up to Episode 102 where Ron Gee had ordered an Aero-Liberator camera from John Minnicks, Ron came back to talk about receiving the camera and his initial impressions of it.  Other cameras discussed are the Tele and Wide Rolleiflexes, a rare Foth TLR, the 16mm KMZ Narciss SLR, a very strange and rare American camera called the Millfred Cand-O-Matic and I give an update on some leather I purchased for a Leica IIIa that needed to be recovered. As always, the topics we discuss on the Camerosity Podcast are influenced by you!  Please don't feel like you have to be an expert on a specific type of camera, or have the level of knowledge on par with other people on the show.  We LOVE people who are into shooting or collecting cameras, no matter how long you've been doing it, so please don't consider your knowledge level to be a prerequisite for joining!

The Donner Party faces another punishing trip across a desert before it finally reaches the Sierra Nevada Mountains on the border between Nevada and California. The party has lost a ton of time, but the travelers still believe they can make it over the mountains and into central California before winter. They make it as far as Truckee Lake – now Donner Lake – before they become trapped by blizzards. Thanks to our sponsor, Quince!

Beyond the Chutes | First Frontier Circuit Finals SeriesBefore the gate opens and the clock starts, there's a moment when it's just a rider, a horse, and everything you've worked on to that moment.In Episode 1 of our special First Frontier Circuit Finals series, we sit down with Karissa Landis, a barrel racer from Middleburg, Pennsylvania, whose journey to success has been shaped as much by trust and patience as by speed.Recorded on site at the First Frontier Circuit Finals in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, this conversation goes far beyond the arena dirt. Karissa shares the deeply personal story of Old Man Cash — the horse who carried her through her youth, her grief, and her growth as a competitor.In a meaningful full-circle moment, Karissa purchased Cash from my daughter Kathleen Simcox, who took a soured barrel racing horse out of the arena for nearly two years and made riding fun again. By stepping away from competition, riding with a partner, and allowing a horse to simply be a horse, Cash found his way back — not just as a competitor, but as a true teacher.Karissa opens up about:Growing up in rodeo and starting young in barrel racingLearning hard lessons from difficult horses and tougher seasonsLosing a close friend and finding comfort in the stall, not the spotlightDeveloping the mental game required to compete at the highest levelAnd learning when to stop saying “if I win” and start saying “when I do”The results followed.At the 2026 First Frontier Circuit Finals, Karissa:Won the first roundPlaced in every roundFinished second in the averageAnd earned an invitation to the NFR Open in Colorado Springs this JulyBut this episode isn't about stats on a scoreboard.It's about what happens when riders show up for their horses, honor the process, and refuse to settle for anything less than their best.This is the story that sets the tone for the entire series.

What if the real competitive edge in the AI era isn't the tools you adopt, but the intelligence you already possess? And what if the agencies that win are the ones that stop chasing novelty and start refining their own IP instead? In this episode of The Agency Blueprint Podcast, I break down what's hype, what's real, and what truly matters for agencies seeking long-term relevance, higher profitability, and sharper differentiation in an AI-driven era. I also explain how the real power emerges when we combine logic, frameworks, and unique agency IP with AI's ability to process massive amounts of information. Don't miss this episode if you're an agency owner ready to move beyond AI overwhelm and into true implementation.Key Questions: [01:34] Are you chasing AI tools because of FOMO, or are you building real impact into your workflow? [04:18] What parts of your agency's process rely on human thinking, and what parts could AI reliably synthesize? [10:45] What would a lean, meaningful AI stack look like for your agency specifically? [12:30] Are you fully leveraging your own data to build a powerful agency-specific knowledge layer? What You'll Discover: [01:34] The rapid churn of AI tools and why chasing novelty over strategy keeps agencies stuck in low-impact adoption cycles. [03:48] How agencies can break their expertise into micro-components that AI can support without taking over human thinking. [05:32] How AI becomes powerful when layered beneath your agency's IP, helping designers, strategists, and writers gather insights faster. [06:52] The specific ways AI can accelerate desktop research, creative prototyping, brand storytelling, and persona testing. [08:12] The crucial difference between short-term efficiency and long-term differentiation, and why agencies must think on both timelines. [09:22] How saved hours can be pocketed, used to reduce price, or reinvested to produce more valuable and higher-fidelity client work. [10:45] How to build lean AI stacks that integrate directly into your workflow rather than disrupt it. [12:30] Understanding that you're sitting on massive pools of undervalued data that could become powerful differentiators with the right AI tools. [13:04] Why the real frontier is not tools, but embedding AI into your unique process in a way that makes your value irreplaceable.

The Donner-Reed caravan passes the halfway point of its journey to California, and now the real problems begin. After meeting legendary mountain man, Jim Bridger, the caravan chooses to take an unproven road across central Utah. They believe it is a shortcut which will save them hundreds of miles. It turns out to be a disaster, and the trip across the Great Salt Lake Desert leads to a heartbreaking decision. Thanks to our sponsor, Quince!

Imagine a world where every guest at your event—or every diner at a restaurant—can open a menu and instantly see what's safe for them to eat. No guessing. No anxiety. No risk. That's the world Dylan McDonnell, founder and CEO of Foodini , is helping to build. Diagnosed with celiac disease at age 10, Dylan knows firsthand what it feels like to sit at a table and wonder if what's being served will make you sick. That experience inspired him to launch Foodini, a dietary-intelligence platform using AI and dietitian-led data to make ingredient transparency effortless—for both guests and kitchens. Now, as California implements SB 68, the nation's first allergen-disclosure law for restaurants, Dylan's advocacy and innovation are shaping a safer, more informed dining future. Together, on this week's Eating at a Meeting Podcast LIVE we're unpacking:

On this episode of the Free Thought Project podcast, Matt and Jason are joined by returning champion Aaron Day for his fourth appearance on the show. Day is a liberty activist, entrepreneur, and author. He is the Chairman of the Stark360 PAC and has been a prominent voice in the Free State Project. His latest ventures include his 2026 U.S. Senate run to promote liberty from the inside and Oasara, a counter-economy solution to medical tyranny. We kick off the conversation with Aaron's controversial new bid for U.S. Senate in New Hampshire. Aaron explains why he is entering the belly of the beast and how he plans to use the platform not to govern, but to promote voluntaryist values and expose the two-party paradigm as a criminal enterprise. The discussion then turns to the state of political prisoners in the West. We break down the "ransom" of Roger Ver—who was effectively extorted for millions to avoid a cage—and discuss the ongoing persecution of privacy pioneers like Ian Freeman and Roman Storm. This bleeds into a critical look at the state of crypto, how Bitcoin has been "hijacked" by institutional interests, and why the EU is terrified of true privacy coins. Later, we pivot to the solutions: Medical Freedom. Aaron unveils his new project, Oasara, a medical tourism marketplace designed to help people escape the U.S. healthcare price-gouging (where markups can hit 10,000%). He debunks the myths that "cheaper means worse," explains how AI and privacy are being integrated into patient care, and shares his vision for a parallel health system. We also touch on Aaron's creative side, discussing his eye-opening AI-generated music, before wrapping up with a unique "White Pill" on finding the leverage to dismantle tyranny.  Click Here to Support TFTP.

He emphasizes the importance of creating value, the role of energy in economic prosperity, and the decentralizing force of Bitcoin that can empower communities across the nation.

On Saturday, January 3rd, President Trump announced that a military raid on Caracas had captured Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, and brought him back to the US to face drug charges. The operation followed months of deadly US strikes against boats purportedly ferrying drugs from Venezuela and a military buildup off its coast. But even after Maduro was seized, the administration still could not, or would not, clearly explain its intense interest in Venezuela any more than it could explain its plans for the country. And beyond the practicalities of “running” Venezuela, as Trump said the US would be doing, are even more disturbing questions about what comes next under the “Donroe doctrine”—the administration's update of the 202-year-old Monroe Doctrine, which was used to justify generations of US interventions throughout the Western Hemisphere. This episode of On the Nose turns to a foremost expert on US interference in Latin America, Greg Grandin, to help us understand the historical context of Trump's surge—and what it may suggest about his military adventures going forward. A Pulitzer Prize-winning history professor at Yale, Grandin has written several books on the tangled history of the US and Latin America, including his sweeping 2025 chronicle, America, América: A New History of the New World. Jewish Currents editor-at-large Peter Beinart asks Grandin to break down the political situation in Venezuela and the history of its nationalized oil reserves—and to explain what Trump's new doctrine of pure power may hold in store for the US and the Americas. This episode originally appeared on The Beinart Notebook on Substack.

In 1846 in Springfield, Illinois, the Donner family teams up with the Reed family to form the core of a caravan that will travel to the rich farmland of California. The problem is, they're already late. They soon discover that they're among the very last travelers to begin the journey to the West, and the hardships begin almost immediately.

This episode: The first real-world activation of the Garmin Autoland system, the E‑7 Wedgetail networked airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) platform, the flu season impact on crews, an airline captain stands up for exhausted flight attendants, and airlines with the largest fleets. Additionally, airport modernization and the Dulles people movers, the infrastructure needed to support the growth of personal air vehicles, and containment systems for lithium battery thermal runaway. Aviation News Autoland Saves King Air, Everyone Safe, FAA, NTSB Launch Probes On December 20, 2025, a Super King Air (N479BR) operated by Buffalo River Aviation experienced an in-flight emergency after departing from Aspen, Colorado (KASE) on a FAR Part 91 reposition flight. No passengers were on board. Climbing through 23,000ft MSL, the aircraft experienced a rapid, uncommanded loss of pressurization. The aircraft was equipped with Garmin Aviation’s latest Emergency Descent Mode (EDM) and Autoland systems, automatically engaged when the cabin altitude exceeded the prescribed safe levels.

Boeing's $724 million radar plane lives on, despite Pentagon efforts to kill it The E‑7 Wedgetail program is designed to replace the legacy E‑3 Sentry/AWACS-type aircraft (Airborne Warning And Control System) with a modern, networked airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) platform. The E-7 is designed to provide long-range, 360° air and maritime surveillance using an electronically scanned array radar mounted on a Boeing 737 airframe. It's intended to serve as an airborne battle management node, coordinating fighters, surface units, and ground-based air defenses. The Pentagon wants to cancel the purchase of two prototype E-7 Wedgetail jets, but Congress refuses to do so. In fact, Congress provided $847 million in additional funding for the two prototypes. Major Radio Failure Paralyzes Greek Airspace A major failure of aviation radio communications across Greece led to a temporary shutdown of Greek airspace, grounding or diverting flights nationwide for several hours and causing knock-on disruption across Europe. The collapse of radio frequencies in the Athens Flight Information Region (FIR) forced authorities to halt departures and arrivals until communications were partially restored. Travelers stranded in Caribbean as US military operation sends airlines scrambling to add flights A US military operation to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro led to a temporary FAA closure of Caribbean airspace, causing more than 425 flight cancellations and stranding thousands of travelers across islands including Puerto Rico, Anguilla, St. Maarten, and Aruba. Airlines are now restoring service and adding extra capacity, with most commercial restrictions lifted and operations gradually normalizing. Alaska Airlines Captain Sues Boeing Over 737Max Door Plug Incident Alaska Airlines captain Brandon Fisher has filed a $10 million lawsuit against Boeing and subcontractor Spirit AeroSystems, alleging they tried to make him a scapegoat for the January 5, 2024, mid‑air door plug blowout on Flight 1282. He claims Boeing falsely suggested the incident was due to maintenance or crew error, despite later NTSB findings that pointed to Boeing's inadequate training, guidance, and oversight in its manufacturing processes. Fisher says he has suffered “profound physical and mental repercussions” since the blowout, describing ongoing deterioration linked to emotional injury. Alaska Airlines Hits New All Time Record of 540+ Flight Attendants Going Sick With Carrier Struggling to Operate Full Schedule Flight attendants and pilots are calling out sick in great numbers as the flu season takes hold. Alaska Airlines reports that 540 flight attendants are out. Meanwhile, Frontier, JetBlue, and Spirit have activated contingency plans. In an internal memo, Spirit Airlines said, “Our reserve levels are virtually the same as they have been since 2023, but during this holiday, our sick calls have exceeded previous periods by nearly 250% on some days.” Weather delays and ATC shortages have compounded the problem. A memo reviewed by PYOK explained that nearly 20% of the airline's flight attendants called out sick just before the New Year. My Crew Is Done: United Airlines Captain Refuses to Push Tired Flight Attendants And One Passenger Thanks Him For The Delay FAA regulations generally limit a flight attendant's maximum scheduled duty day to 14 hours on domestic flights. With an augmented crew (adding additional flight attendants), duty can be scheduled beyond 14 hours but is capped at 20 hours. This PYOK article relates the observations of a passenger who saw a United Airlines Captain refuse the attempts of the ground crew to keep the timed-out flight attendants on the boarded plane while another cabin crew could be found. With the FAs exiting the plane, the passengers would have to deplane. Top 10 airlines with the biggest fleets in 2026 United Airlines has the largest fleet with 1,050 single-aisle and widebody aircraft. American Airlines follows with 1,023 aircraft, then Delta Airlines (989), Southwest Airlines (810), China Southern Airlines (708), China Eastern Airlines (679), Skywest Airlines (600), Air China (531), Turkish Airlines (399), and Ryanair (349). The data comes from Planespotters.net and individual airlines. It is current as of December 2025. Mentioned Micah was a guest on WBZ, AM Radio 1030 in Boston with Bradley Jay.

In this episode of The Effortless Podcast, Amit Prakash and Dheeraj Pandey are joined by Alex Dimakis for a wide-ranging, systems-first discussion on the future of long-horizon AI agents that can operate over time, learn from feedback, adapt to users, and function reliably inside real-world environments.The conversation spans research and industry, unpacking why prompt engineering alone collapses at scale; how advisor models, reward-driven learning, and environment-based evaluation enable continual improvement without retraining frontier models; and why memory in AI systems is as much about forgetting as it is about recall. Drawing from distributed systems, reinforcement learning, and cognitive science, the trio explores how personalization, benchmarks, and context engineering are becoming the foundation of AI-native software.Alex, Dheeraj, and Amit also examine the evolution from SFT to RL to JEPA-style world models, the role of harnesses and benchmarks in measuring real progress, and why enterprise AI has moved decisively from research into engineering. The result is a candid, deeply technical conversation about what it will actually take to move beyond demos and build agents that work over long horizons.Key Topics & Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction, context, and holiday catch-up04:00 – Teaching in the age of AI and why cognitive “exercise” still matters08:00 – Industry sentiment: fear, trust, and skepticism around LLMs12:00  – Memory in AI systems: documents, transcripts, and limits of recall17:00  – Why forgetting is a feature, not a bug22:00 – Advisor models and dynamic prompt augmentation27:00 – Data vs metadata: control planes vs data planes in AI systems32:00 – Personalization, rewards, and learning user preferences implicitly37:00 – Why prompt-only workflows break down at scale41:00 – RAG, advice, and moving beyond retrieval-centric systems46:00 – Long-horizon agents and the limits of reflection-based prompting51:00 – Environments, rewards, and agent-centric evaluation56:00 – From Q&A benchmarks to agents that act in the world1:01:00 – Terminal Bench, harnesses, and measuring real agent progress1:06:00 – Frontier labs, open source, and the pace of change1:11:00 – Context engineering as infrastructure (“the train tracks” analogy)1:16:00 – Organizing agents: permissions, visibility, and enterprise structure1:20:00 – SFT vs RL: imitation first, reinforcement last1:25:00 – Anti-fragility, trial-and-error, and unsolved problems in continual learning1:28:00 – Closing reflections on the future of long-horizon AI agentsHosts:Amit PrakashCEO & Founder at AmpUp, Former engineer at Google AdSense and Microsoft Bing, with deep expertise in distributed systems, data platforms, and machine learning.Dheeraj PandeyCo-founder & CEO at DevRev, Former Co-founder & CEO of Nutanix.

THE ORIGINS OF A FRONTIER FEUD AND LOGAN'S LAMENT Colleague Professor Robert G. Parkinson. In February 1775, the Pennsylvania Journal published a famous document known as Logan's Lament. This speech, delivered by the Mingo leader James Logan Shikellamy, accuses Colonel Cresap of the cold-blooded murder of his family relations. However, this accusation contained significant errors: Logan misidentified the killer and confused the Cresap father and son. The conflict highlights the complex relationships between the colonials of Virginia and Pennsylvania and indigenous tribes like the Iroquois and Shawnee. The narrative introduces two key families—the Cresaps and the Shikellamys—whose intertwined histories defined the violent confusion of the early American frontier. NUMBER 1

THE DEATH OF A RANGER AND THE CREATION OF A HERO Colleague Professor Robert G. Parkinson. Michael Cresap marched his riflemen from the frontier to Boston in 1775, where the press hailed them as "secret weapons" against the British. However, these troops proved undisciplined, and Washington privately wished they had not come. Suffering likely from malaria, Cresap fell ill and died in a New York City boarding house in October 1775. Despite being a stranger, New York patriots gave Cresap a massive, lavish funeral at Trinity Church to rally support for the cause. The revolution transformed Cresap from a frontier instigator into a celebrated American patriot. NUMBER 5

How do we pass on the faith to the next generation? God has entrusted us with tools that are simple. You might say ordinary. They are ordinary in that anyone can do them. They are extraordinary in that when we are faithful to deploy them God gives the increase to our efforts and more is accomplished through them than we could accomplish through any of our best laid plans. In this episode I share with you a sermon I recently preached at a men's breakfast at Bethel Church in Frontier, Saskatchewan.Happy New Year! May God add His blessings to your endeavors in 2026!

In the early nineteenth century, a stretch of upstate New York became one of the most spiritually charged regions in American history. Known as the Burned Over District, this frontier landscape was shaped by relentless revivals, bold preachers, and a growing belief that individuals could choose salvation and reshape society. In this episode of the History of the Papacy Podcast, Steve Guerra is joined by historian John Fagant of the Buffalo Presidential Center (https://www.buffalopresidentialcenter.org) to explore how the Second Great Awakening transformed western New York into a proving ground for religious innovation. At the center of the story is Charles Grandison Finney, whose revival campaigns challenged older ideas of predestination and emphasized free will, moral responsibility, and action. The conversation traces how revival culture spilled beyond churches into abolitionism, women’s rights, education reform, and other movements that continue to shape American public life. What began as a regional religious phenomenon became a national turning point in how Americans understood faith, authority, and reform. #HistoryOfThePapacy #BurnedOverDistrict #SecondGreatAwakening #AmericanReligiousHistory #ChurchHistory #BuffaloHistory #UpstateNewYork #ReligiousReform Support the show:Buy me a coffee! https://buymeacoffee.com/historyofthepapacyPatreon: http://patreon.com/historyofthepapacyBuy me a book: http://bit.ly/40ckJ8EHave questions, comments or feedback?

Join Dr. Martin in today's episode of The Doctor Is In Podcast.  

In early September of 1799, the Stone Expedition reunited deep in the unmapped wilderness beyond the Ohio River. Nine men gathered at the designated rendezvous, carrying fresh provisions and renewed hope. They could not have known that within weeks, two of them would be dead, and the survivors would carry secrets that would haunt their bloodlines for generations.This episode chronicles the expedition's darkest chapter as they pressed deeper into forbidden territory than any Europeans had ventured before. The creatures that had watched them for months began gathering in unprecedented numbers, converging from all directions toward something none of the men could see but all could feel drawing them forward. When the expedition crossed into hostile territory without realizing it, the fragile peace they had built shattered in a single night of violence that left Henri Beaumont scattered across a forest clearing in pieces too small to bury. But the horror of that night was only the beginning. Guided by creatures whose motives remained unknowable, the surviving members discovered a hidden valley—a vast sanctuary concealed between mountain walls where hundreds, perhaps thousands, of these beings had lived in complete isolation since before human civilization began.What they found in the caves of that valley would challenge everything they believed about the natural world and reveal a relationship between humans and these ancient creatures far more terrible than any of them had imagined. The bones told the story. Scattered. Broken. Some fossilized with the weight of millennia, others bearing traces of recent flesh. Teeth marks near the joints. Evidence of breaking for marrow. The native warnings had not been exaggeration. They had been truth. This episode also documents the final descent of Will Harper, the expedition's artist, whose mind had been unraveling since his first encounter with the creatures months before. His death in a forest clearing—surrounded by silent witnesses, his heart simply stopped, his face frozen in an expression of terrible transcendence—remains one of the most haunting passages in the Stone journals.Two men entered that valley who would never leave it. The seven who survived would carry the weight of what they witnessed for the rest of their lives, bound by an oath of secrecy that would echo through their descendants for two hundred years.Some knowledge demands a price. Some truths are paid for in blood.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

    About this episode:  For this episode, we'll take the American Civil War to places that far too many dismiss - west of the Mississippi. Sites and confrontations that may not be as well-known as eastern theater battlefields like Shiloh, Antietam, Gettysburg or Chattanooga but, nevertheless at locations where national interests were just as great, passions of those involved just as deep and consequences that were just as far-reaching. Three selected stories - each to provide a snapshot of personalities, events and ramifications. One to highlight Union and Confederate campaigns in faraway New Mexico Territory; Another, vengeful guerilla warfare in Kansas and Missouri; and, for our third story, while civil war raged, a clash between whites and Native Americans in Minnesota. And now, stories from the American Civil War that originated in the Trans-Mississippi. Stories from then the western frontier.        ----more---- Some Characters Mentioned In This Episode: David E.

WOMEN OF COMMERCE AND THE FRONTIER Colleague Emma Southon. We meet Julia Felix, a Pompeianentrepreneur who ran a luxury bath and dining complex, offering "bougie" experiences to the middle class before dying in the Vesuvius eruption. The discussion shifts to Vindolanda in Britain, where letters between Sulpicia Lepidina and Claudia Severa reveal a vibrant social life for women in military forts, including birthday parties and domestic luxuries like wild swan and imported wine.

The fundamental reality of our lives is a spiritual one. According to Ephesians we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers and the rulers of the darkness of this age, and against spiritual hosts of wickedness in heavenly places. As I have come to realize the role these battles were playing in my own life and how to fight in these battles my life has changed for the better. On this episode I share with you a talk I recently gave at Bethel Church's Fall Meetings in Frontier, Saskatchewan.Merry Christmas! Thanks so much for tuning in throughout 2025. May God bring you Grace and Peace in 2026.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Marinela Profi, Global Market Strategy Lead for AI, GenAI and Agentic AI at SAS, about the rise of agentic AI and how we will move from hype to real, reliable AI. In today's episode, we'll discuss: Why LLMs alone don't solve business problems – and what does, how governance is becoming the new frontier of AI trust, and what leaders should expect by 2026, as enterprises shift from experiments to autonomous, explainable intelligence. KEY TAKEAWAYS A generative AI chatbot is really good and answering questions, generating text, or summarising content. But, it typically stops when it comes to conversation. On the other hand, an AI agent goes beyond that, it can take action, it has goals, memory, reasoning capabilities and can orchestrate multi-set workflows using a combination of not just large-language models but also rules, data and analytics. Generative AI talks, and agentic AI does. The 5-step lifecycle of an agent is a framework I put together to help me and my customers understand what an agent actually does step-by-step in practice. 1. Perception 2. Cognition 3. Decisioning 4. Action, and 5. Learning. Governance boards in 2026 will act more like digital oversight committees, they will ensure that agents aren't just smart, but they are safe, explainable and accountable.  BEST MOMENTS  ‘Post action the agent learns from feedback from a human operative. It's important to monitor the learning loops, you cannot allow the agent to “self-update” in ways that are uncontrolled.'  ‘How autonomous should an agent be? 90% of the time it depends on the risk and impact of the task.' ‘Autonomy without accountability is a risk multiplier.' ‘Governance doesn't stop at deployment, performance must be continuously monitored.' ABOUT THE GUEST Marinela Profi helps organizations move from AI hype to trusted impact. As Global Market Strategy Lead for AI, GenAI and Agentic AI at SAS, she works with enterprises in financial services, healthcare, and government to build AI systems that don't just act fast—but act responsibly. With an MBA and a Master's in Statistics and AI, Marinela bridges two worlds: translating complex data science into clear business strategy. Her work focuses on how agentic AI—intelligent systems that perceive, reason, and act autonomously—can deliver governed, explainable decisions instead of black-box predictions. A frequent keynote speaker at international AI and analytics events, she shares insights on the evolution from generative to agentic AI and the new frontier of AI governance, trust, and human-AI collaboration. Marinela is also an Advisory Board Member for Wake Technical Community College's Data Science Program, helping shape future-ready curricula that connect classroom learning with real-world AI innovation.
