On May 10, 1973, a stranger walked into a bank on Main Street in Kenora, Ontario, carrying guns, duffle bags, and a homemade bomb that was armed to a switch he clenched between his teeth. For more than an hour the standoff dragged on inside the bank as a growing crowd of onlookers crowded the street outside it's doors. At 4:12 p.m., a single rifle shot ended the robbery in an explosion that shattered windows, scattered money through the air, and erased the man at the center of it all. More than fifty years later, his identity and his motives remain unknown. In this episode of The Canadian Gothic, I'm joined by Jack Luna, host of the Dark Topic podcast, to examine the Kenora Bank Robbery Explosion.

As senior living enters a new era of growth, workforce challenges are quickly becoming the industry's biggest bottleneck. Recorded live from the LeadingAge National Show in Boston, hosts Josh Crisp and Lucas McCurdy sit down with Paul Jarvis, EVP of Sales and Marketing at Procare HR, to unpack what operators must do to prepare for 2026 and beyond.This conversation explores why “getting a little bit better at everything HR-related” can have massive downstream impacts on financial performance, care outcomes, and employee satisfaction. Paul explains how viewing HR as a full employee journey, from application and onboarding to scheduling, retention, and compliance, helps operators scale confidently, especially amid acquisitions and regulatory complexity.This week we cover:Why workforce strategy is becoming senior living's biggest growth constraintRetention vs. agency staffing and care outcomesPreparing for 100% occupancy scenariosMeet the Hosts:Josh CrispLucas McCurdyConnect with Our GuestPaul JarvisProduced by Grit and Gravel Marketing.Become a sponsor of Bridge the Gap.
In part one of this two-part series, Dr. Justin Abbatemarco and Dr. Divyanshu Dubey discuss the original patient cohort with occupational exposure, what motivated this line of research, and the key findings from the initial workup. Show citation: Hinson SR, Gupta P, Paramasivan NK, et al. Neural synaptic vesicle autoimmunity following aerosolized porcine neural tissue exposure: insights into autoimmune inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy. EBioMedicine. 2025;122:106053. doi:10.1016/j.ebiom.2025.106053 Show transcript: Dr. Justin Abbatemacro: Hello and welcome. This is Justin Abbatemacro. And I'm here with Divyanshu Dubey to discuss his article published in eBiomedicine, Neurosynaptic Vessel Autoimmunity Following Aerosolized Porcine Neural Tissue Exposure: Insight into Autoimmune Inflammatory Polyradicular Neuropathy. Dr. Justin Abbatemacro: Div is a professor of neurology at the Mayo Clinic, and we just finished our interview, which I would encourage everyone to check out. Div, maybe we could talk about the original cohort with this occupational exposure, what inspired you to do this work and then what did you find with that initial workup? Dr. Divyanshu Dubey: As recounted in our paper, this story began in 2006 to 2008, when a group of swine abattoir workers developed a striking neurological syndrome. These people were previously healthy and suddenly developed severe neuropathic pain, tingling, and variable weakness. The localization stood out, these cases were initially identified by Dan Lachance, who characterized these patients having an autoimmune neuropathy, which was further phenotypically characterized by the work done by Dr. Dyck, calling these inflammatory polyradicular neuropathy based on their nerve root plexus and proximal nerve collisions. And interestingly, a lot of work done back then by Dr. Lennon showed these patients had a unique synaptic staining pattern suggesting there was an underlying antibody driving this disease process. So as I joined the neuroimmunology lab a few years ago, this was one of the areas I wanted to go back and study, not only to find this mystery biomarker which caused the disease in these patients, but also to try and understand how this can help. Dr. Justin Abbatemacro: Yeah. I think my takeaway is be curious, right? You hear the story, you see this pattern. Be curious and investigate, and it takes a team or a village to do it. Dr. Divyanshu Dubey: 100%. So observation, communication between, as you said, a team or a village with like-minded, passionate individuals is one of the successes of many of our discoveries, not just this one in this biomarker space. Dr. Divyanshu Dubey: So the technique we use for discovery of these biomarkers was called a phage display where we use the archive sera to test from these patients, the swine abattoir worker patients with autoimmune polyradicular neuropathy. And we ended up finding two dominant antigens, which was synaptophysin and GAP-43, which were present in majority of these cases. Dr. Justin Abbatemacro: Please come back and check out part two where we discuss the latest findings and maybe some non-occupational exposures. And check out the podcast. Thanks.
This January marks eight years since the last Fort Indiantown Gap.... For many reenactors who attended over the years it's been hard to find another event that compares - whilst for some of those who didn't attend, the annual reenactment in Pennsylvania has achieved almost mythical status. By the time the event closed in 2018 Chris had been taking part for almost 20 years and in this episode he shares his memories of what made Gap so special - and how it changed over the years.......

McDaniel's Interview and Culture Fit Detroit hosted Mike McDaniel on Tuesday for the offensive coordinator job. He left without a deal and may be headed to Nashville to meet the Titans or another NFL team. The first question in Detroit is simple. Does he fit the culture and the way this staff wants to run the room? If the answer is yes, the upside is obvious. The Lions are in full offseason mode and this opening sits at the center of it. What His Offense Could Unlock in Detroit McDaniel's value shows up in the run game. Miami's offense scores at the one-yard line with regularity because of design. Jalen Waddle is fast. Tyreek Hill is fast. Tua has limitations, yet the scheme squeezes production from the whole group. Devin Hian is not a big back, but he constantly runs into space. That is the point. Create angles. Create daylight. Finish in the low red zone. Picture that with Jahmyr Gibbs. Detroit can run outside zone and be fine at it. The conversation is how much wide zone you want, and how the current offensive line fits. A blend is on the table. Gap scheme. Zone scheme. You can marry both and lean into weekly matchups. McDaniel's passing game can live in quick answers for Jared and still hit explosives. Dagger concept. A go ball to J Mo. Get the ball out, then punish coverage when it bites. That mix fits what the Detroit Lions have built and what this offense already does well. If He Chooses Detroit—and What's Next McDaniel may prefer a head coaching job. If that door closes, Detroit offers a place to reset and light up scoreboards for a year or two. Put up numbers. Win games. Then reassess. The Lions need to decide if the voice, the rhythm, and the install align with their standards. If it clicks, this would be a dynamic hire for the Detroit Lions and one of the most intriguing moves of the NFL offseason. There is more on deck. The crew is pushing daily content and rolling into early draft talk. Draft videos are coming, with some early draft crushes for the 2026 NFL Draft teased on the show. The search for an offensive coordinator leads the week, but Detroit's broader plan is clear. Keep building. Make the right hire. Maximize a roster that is ready to go. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIdcjOEvuZY #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #detroitlionsoffensivecoordinatorsearch #mikemcdanielinterview #culturefit #runninggame #lowredzone #outsidezone #widezone #gapscheme #jameergibbsusage #jaredquickgame #jmodeepshots #daggerconcept #goball #2026nfldraftcrushes #tennesseetitansinterview Learn more about your ad choices.

Whether she's rocking silver bangles on the beach or sipping coffee in her cabin, your Rich Old Lady deserves a life of financial freedom. And today's guest is here to help you build it. Amanda Holden is the founder of Invested Development and the author of How to Be a Rich Old Lady: Your Guide to Easy Investing, Building Wealth, and Creating the Wild, Beautiful Life You Want. After a career in investment management (yes, she was once a finance bro), Amanda walked away from Wall Street to help over 25,000 women learn to invest, without shame, jargon, or feeling overwhelmed. In this episode, Jean and Amanda break down: Why the financial system feels so exclusive—and how to take your seat at the table How to build “the Gap” (your most powerful financial tool) Amanda's hilarious (and helpful) dating metaphor for asset allocation Whether it's too late to catch up on retirement (spoiler: it's not) The surprising risks of today's AI-driven stock market boom
As we kick off 2026, we're exploring the power of setting intentions, and why they're essential for any transformative journey. By providing a focal point, a clear intention helps you sort through the noise to find the insights most relevant to your growth. It also serves as an emotional "home" to return to, ensuring that you're actively navigating your subconscious, and not just drifting.Key TakeawaysFocus on the "Why" over the "What": An intention isn't a rigid destination or a list of goals; it's the emotional fuel behind your journey. By honing in on your "why,” you create a sturdy foundation for challenging experiences.Practice Distillation for Clarity: Boil your intentions down to one or two core themes or a single word, making it easier to recall and use as a grounding tool during an altered state of consciousness.Bridge the Gap with Emotional Targets: True healing is felt in the body, not just in the mind. To ensure your intentions are actionable, identify your specific "emotional markers" of success so you can recognize when you're moving toward your purpose.-We're proud to partner with North Spore as a sponsor and an educational ally.

Prefabrication only reaches its full potential when it's treated as a system, not a shortcut. In this episode of Bridging the Gap, we explore what it really takes to scale prefab beyond one-off projects and into a repeatable delivery model. The discussion dives into how standardization can unlock flexibility, why prefab strategy must be defined early, and how digital tools like BIM, automation, and emerging AI capabilities can enable more predictable outcomes. We also unpack one of the biggest challenges facing industrialized construction today: owning and managing data across the full lifecycle. If you're thinking about prefab as a long-term strategy—not just a construction tactic—this episode offers a grounded, practical perspective. You'll Learn: What “systematizing prefab” means beyond standardizing components Why repeatability is the key to scaling prefab successfully How early decisions shape prefab outcomes downstream Where digital tools truly add value in prefab workflows Why data ownership and lifecycle continuity remain major gaps How standardization can support customization rather than limit it MEET OUR GUEST Our guest is a leader working at the intersection of healthcare, technology, and industrialized construction. With a background spanning marketing, IT, systems engineering, and modular delivery, he brings a unique perspective on how prefabrication can improve speed, quality, and predictability—especially in highly standardized environments like healthcare. His work focuses on building the process infrastructure required to make prefab repeatable, scalable, and digitally connected. TODD TAKES Prefab Only Scales When You Stop Treating It Like a Project Prefab falls short when it's approached as a one-off solution instead of an operating model. The real breakthroughs happen when organizations step back and think in terms of delivery strategy, repeatability, and long-term systems. When prefab becomes infrastructure rather than an experiment, speed, predictability, and quality follow. Standardization Doesn't Kill Flexibility, It Enables It There's a persistent myth that standardization leads to cookie-cutter outcomes. In reality, a strong standardized foundation creates more flexibility, not less. When the core system is consistent, teams can adapt interiors, workflows, and use cases to real-world needs without reinventing the wheel every time. Digital Tools Matter, But Ownership Matters More Construction has no shortage of powerful digital tools. The real gap is ownership and continuity of data across the lifecycle. Without clear responsibility for the digital thread from design through manufacturing and operations, handoffs break down and value gets lost. Technology enables scale, but systems thinking makes it sustainable. More Resources Thanks for listening! Please be sure to leave a rating and/or review and follow up our social accounts.

Employee retention remains one of the most pressing challenges in senior living, but according to The Queen of Retention, Cara Silletto, the problem isn't that “nobody wants to work anymore.” In this episode of Bridge the Gap, Josh Crisp and Lucas McCurdy welcome Cara back to unpack why retention failures are often rooted in leadership, culture, and outdated assumptions. Cara introduces her Employee Retention Ecosystem, a holistic framework that assigns shared responsibility across employees, managers, and executives.

In this episode, I challenge one of the most common personal development habits—affirmations—and introduce a far more powerful alternative. If confidence feels inconsistent… if discipline fades when motivation disappears… and if you know what to do but still struggle to execute, this conversation is for you. We explore why asking better questions—specifically yes-or-no "Will you?" questions—creates faster, more sustainable behavior change than statements, goals, or affirmations ever could. Drawing on decades of behavioral research, identity psychology, and real-world golf and life examples, I break down how questions engage your subconscious, eliminate excuses, and leverage cognitive dissonance to pull you into action—especially when you don't feel like it. In this episode, you'll learn: Why affirmations often fail to create lasting behavior change How asking "Will you?" activates confidence and ownership The psychology behind cognitive dissonance—and how to use it Why yes/no questions eliminate excuses and justifications How identity-based questions reinforce discipline under pressure The subtle but critical difference between can I and will I How to use questions to execute when motivation is gone This is a tactical yet deeply transformational episode designed to help you strengthen discipline, upgrade your self-talk, and accelerate becoming the version of yourself required to achieve your biggest goals—on the course and in life.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Key Takeaways: Confidence is built through your relationship with yourself—especially your self-talk. Questions engage your brain more powerfully than statements or affirmations. "Will you?" implies ownership, commitment, and action—not possibility. Yes/no questions remove the mental loopholes that fuel excuses. Cognitive dissonance pushes behavior to align with identity. Discipline is strengthened when actions answer questions—not feelings. Asking better questions accelerates becoming who you want to be. Key Quotes: "Confidence is intoxicating—and one of its strongest predictors is how you talk to yourself." "Questions engage you; statements let you hide." "When you ask 'Will you?' there's no room for excuses—only action." "Cognitive dissonance is the discomfort that pulls you toward who you want to become." "Discipline is doing what needs to be done when you don't feel like it." "Your actions don't follow motivation—they follow identity." "The answer to who you'll become lies in the question 'Will you?'"

For decades, the conversation around starting a family has been dominated by a single, ticking sound: the biological clock. We're told that age is the ultimate arbiter of reproductive success. But according to Harvard-awarded fertility specialist Gabriela Rosa, age is only one piece of a much larger puzzle. If you've been told that your "labs are normal" but you still aren't pregnant, or if you're facing the daunting prospect of IVF, it's time to look deeper. Based on Gabriela Rosa's pioneering F.E.R.T.I.L.E. Method, here's why health matters more than age, and what's truly missing from the standard fertility conversation. Health Beats Age with Fertility Gabriela emphasizes that the environment in which an egg or sperm matures is the true driver of quality. She often tells her patients to "act pregnant now to get pregnant later." The "standard" lab reference ranges are often misleading. For example, a TSH (thyroid) level of 4.0 might be considered "normal" by a general lab, but research suggests that for fertility, anything above 2.3 can increase the risk of miscarriage. "In fertility, there is no such thing as a neutral exposure. Everything you eat, breathe, and put on your skin has either a positive or a negative effect." By optimizing metabolic health… addressing "minor factors" like insulin resistance or subclinical thyroid issues… you can often overcome the statistical hurdles of maternal age. The Gap in Standard Treatments The modern medical system is often fragmented. When a couple struggles to conceive, the standard path is a quick referral to an IVF clinic. While IVF is a miraculous tool, it's often used as a "bypass" rather than a solution to the underlying health issues. Gabriela points out that "unexplained infertility" is often just "uninvestigated infertility." Standard treatments frequently miss the power of preconception… taking 3-4 months to "clean the soil" before planting the seed. They also overlook deep-dive diagnostics, testing for silent infections or DNA fragmentation that standard tests ignore. And they fail to account for the cumulative effect: one minor health issue might delay you by two years; three minor issues could theoretically delay conception by 40 years. Fertility Is a Team Sport Perhaps the biggest gap in standard care is the focus on the woman. Statistically, fertility challenges are 40% female factor, 40% male factor, and 20% combined or embryonic. Yet men are often told "you're fine" after a basic semen analysis. Gabriela insists that "fertility is a team sport." A man's health contributes 50% of the DNA and significantly impacts the sustainability of the pregnancy. Don't Settle for "Normal" If you're struggling, Gabriela Rosa's message is one of empowerment. Infertility is not a dead end; it's a "call to arms" to understand your body better. If a clinician tells you "everything is normal, just keep trying" despite months of failure, it's time to seek a second opinion. You have more influence over your biology than you've been led to believe. In this podcast you'll learn: Why health matters more than age when it comes to fertility What's missing in standard fertility treatments and how to fill the gaps Why treating both partners is essential for conception success EPISODE RESOURCES: Website Gabriela Rosa Facebook Instagram X TikTok Fertility Breakthrough Instagram Facebook TalkSex Podcast Apple Instagram X
Constellation Brands (STZ), parent company of Modelo and Corona, served an earnings win that lifted the stock Thursday morning. Even as demand improved, Diane King Hall says net sales still declined. UBS shed a light on the retail space with an upgrade on Gap Inc. (GAP) as its sales increase. However, Diane points to a laggard in Nike (NKE) after Needham downgraded the stock, as the firm sees the company's turnaround story taking too long. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Today on Bridging the Gap we'll put aside irrational fears and concentrate of a fear we'll all have if we're wise - a fear of God. As Lloyd reminded us yesterday, that doesn't mean we should tremble at the thought of God, and live in fear of what awful thing He's going to do to us if we sin.
If you're back at work and already quietly overloaded — you're not broken.January often pretends everything resets, while your nervous system, responsibilities, and expectations clearly don't.In this episode, Dex explores why high-performing leaders don't need new goals, more effort, or a “new you” — they need a new standard.Drawing on Dan Sullivan's concepts of The Gap and The Gain and 10x thinking, this episode reframes overwhelm, pressure, and ambition — and shows how leadership energy is restored by raising standards, not expectations.In this episode, you'll learn:Why January motivation often collapses — and why that's not a failureThe difference between goals, standards, and unrealistic idealsHow unexamined standards quietly drain leadersWhy burnout isn't about caring too much — but outgrowing old rulesHow to move from The Gap to The Gain in everyday leadershipWhat real 10x leadership looks like (and what it isn't)The one question to ask in your first week back at workThis episode is for leaders who want high performance without self-betrayal — and results that don't cost their health, relationships, or joy.Next step: And if you'd like personal guidance on 10x-ing your leadership, learn more at:https://go.dexrandall.com/leadershipSend us a text----------------------------------- Resources:Start 1-on-1 coaching at https:/mini.dexrandall.comLead Better with Dex AI Coach https://app.coachvox.ai/share/dexrandallConfidential.

How can AI actually help construction teams make better decisions (without adding complexity or losing the human element)? In this episode of Bridging the Gap, Todd Weyandt sits down with Shelley Copsey, CEO of FYLD, to explore how AI-driven insights are transforming safety and decision-making in construction. Shelley shares how FYLD helps teams move beyond lagging indicators and manual reporting by turning frontline data into actionable intelligence, right when it matters most. The conversation dives into why predictive safety is the future of construction, how real-time insights empower workers instead of policing them, and what it takes to build trust when introducing AI on the jobsite. In this episode, you'll learn: How AI turns frontline construction data into real-time, actionable insights Why predictive safety beats reactive reporting every time How to introduce AI in a way that builds trust with field teams What “human-centered AI” really looks like in construction MEET OUR GUEST Shelley Copsey is co-founder and CEO of FYLD. In her role, she leads a scaling company empowering major infrastructure companies to drive highly efficient field workforce operations, driven by data and enabling each and every day's operations to be safely delivered to plan. She has over 25 years of experience in the intersection of physical infrastructure and digital technologies, as well as the human transformation required to deliver on the promise of emerging technologies. TODD TAKES Digital Powers Better Job Operations Technology isn't just about automating tasks—it's about creating smarter, safer, and more productive job sites. With real-time data, teams can anticipate risks, streamline workflows, and deliver higher quality outcomes without the traditional trade-off between speed, safety, and cost. Tech Supports, Not Replaces, People AI and digital platforms work best when they elevate the workforce, not replace it. Technology puts power in the hands of field teams, giving them visibility, communication, and support that strengthens trust and culture across the organization. From Blame to Lessons Learned Construction has often defaulted to a blame game when delays or incidents happen. But the real transformation happens when mistakes become learning opportunities. By capturing and analyzing data, companies can reframe setbacks into insights that improve planning, execution, and safety for the future. More Resources Thanks for listening!

Episode Summary: Is emotional intelligence the ultimate superpower? In this episode, we dive into how mastering your emotions can improve every relationship and professional interaction you have. We discuss why reacting instantly is almost always a mistake and share a 3-step action plan to help you control your impulses, understand your own feelings, and become a master communicator. Learn how to use the "Six-Second Rule," the power of a "Draft Folder Policy," and how to truly listen without just waiting for your turn to speak. Key Takeaways & Action Steps: · Why EQ Matters: Emotional intelligence isn't just about being "nice." It is about effectiveness. Dealing with humans requires a skill set that goes beyond logic. · Step 1: Master the Gap: o The Six-Second Rule: Anger causes a chemical flush in the brain that lasts about six seconds. If you can pause for just that long (drink water, take a breath), you can regain control. o The Draft Folder Policy: Never send an angry email or text immediately. Write it, save it, and sleep on it. You will almost always edit or delete it the next day. o Control the Space: You can't control the delayed flight, but you can control your reaction. "If the flight is delayed, there is something wrong with the plane, the pilot, or the weather—and you don't want to be on it anyway." · Step 2: Name it to Tame it: o Engage Logic: When you specifically name an emotion (e.g., "I feel disrespected" instead of just "I'm mad"), your brain shifts from the emotional center to the logic center, instantly lowering stress. o Separate Self from Feeling: Stop saying "I am angry." Start saying "I am experiencing anger." You are not the emotion; you are the vessel experiencing it. · Step 3: The Listener's Lens: o Stop Reloading: Most people aren't listening; they are just waiting for their turn to talk. Stop reloading your next argument and actually hear what is being said. o The Looping Technique: Before you respond, summarize what the other person said ("So what I hear you saying is..."). This validates them and clarifies any misunderstandings before they blow up. o Validate to Influence: You don't have to agree with someone to validate their feelings ("That sounds frustrating"). Connection precedes influence. Quotes from the Episode: · "Anger causes a chemical flush in your brain that lasts about six seconds. If you can pause, you win." · "Stop reloading. Stop waiting for your turn to speak and actually listen." · "You can't fire a behavior, but you can change it. Name it to tame it." · "If you only have short-term friends, look in the mirror. You might be the problem." Action Plan: 1. Practice the 6-Second Pause: Next time you feel triggered, count to six before doing anything. 2. Use the "Draft" Rule: Commit to waiting 24 hours before sending any difficult communication. 3. Try "Looping": In your next conversation, repeat back what you heard before you offer your opinion.

In this episode, I'm welcoming the Christmas season with something I think we all need a reminder of this time of year: you don't have to do it all at once. I'm sharing what it's looked like for me to release the pressure of unfinished to-do lists and instead focus on living in sync with the season I'm in — emotionally, mentally, and practically. This mindset shift has helped me move from overwhelm to peace, and I hope it encourages you too. We talk about: Why not everything needs to be a priority right now and how to be okay with that My early motherhood memories and how they shaped my outlook on productivity How I'm approaching health and fitness with grace in this season Practical tips I use to manage tasks without spiraling A few books that have really supported my mindset lately: The Gap and the Gain, The Joy of Movement, and The Upside of Stress This is one of those cozy, honest episodes where I invite you to breathe a little deeper, take something off your plate, and remember that peace often comes when we accept our current season for what it is not what we think it “should” be.
