Universal Market Access (UMA) was founded by 2 ex Goldman Sachs traders that wanted to make global markets universally accessible through financial smart contracts that used synthetic assets on Ethereum. However, this was taking place long before the massive boom of DeFi summer of 2020. As a result, UMA shifted to building an optimistic oracle to power prediction markets as a decentralised ‘truth machine', thus expanding oracle use cases. Through game theoretic models, UMA managed to properly incentivise its token holders to act as voters, rewarding them for good predictions & disputes, and vice versa. Later on, Hart Lambur also co-founded Across, an intent-based optimistic bridge that set out to create a seamless UX for unifying EVM chains. Through their solver network, Across managed to achieve fast (as low as 2 seconds) and cheap bridging, abstracting away crosschain complexities, without any security tradeoffs.Topics covered in this episode:Hart's backgroundUniversal Market Access, from synthetic assets to oraclesBuilding AcrossUMA's optimistic oracleIncentivizing voters & resolving disputesDealing with invalid outcomesOptimistic security assumptionsUMA x Across dual token interactionsAcross' intent-based bridgePricing mechanism & solver competitionZK settlementBridging fragmentationAbstracting & unifying cross-chain bridgingBridging between rollupsUMA & Across governance systemsEpisode links:Hart Lambur on XAcross Protocol on XUMA Protocol on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Navigating the Complex World of Leave Management: How AI is Transforming HR for Distributed TeamsIn today's rapidly evolving workplace, managing employee leave has become a daunting challenge—especially for companies with teams spread across multiple states. In a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge sat down with Anant Agarwal, co-founder and CTO of Aidora, to discuss the intricacies of leave management, the role of AI in simplifying compliance, and actionable strategies for HR leaders. Drawing from Anant's personal journey as a new parent and a tech founder, this conversation offers a wealth of insights for startups and established companies alike.The Role of AI in Streamlining Leave ManagementAnant Agarwal's personal experience as a new parent revealed just how challenging and confusing managing leave can be—especially when navigating complex federal, state, and city regulations. As a solution, Anant and his team at Aidora are using AI to streamline the leave management process for distributed teams. By utilizing AI-powered tools, companies can offer personalized leave plans to employees based on their location, situation, and company policies, ensuring compliance with ever-changing regulations while also empowering employees with the information they need to plan their time off effectively.AI's role doesn't stop at personalizing leave plans; it can also keep HR teams updated in real time with regulatory changes, reducing the risk of errors and compliance issues.

The AI solutions offered by Aidora scale with companies, helping them manage leave for teams of all sizes while ensuring that employees across different states and cities receive consistent, accurate information.Additionally, AI tools like Aidora's free leave plan generator allow employees to confidentially explore their leave options before approaching HR, saving time for both employees and HR departments. With precise, actionable outputs based on location-specific laws, this tool reduces administrative burden and enhances the employee experience, making the complex world of leave management more manageable for everyone involved.About Anant AgarwalAnant Agarwal is the Co-founder and CTO of Aidora, an AI-powered platform reshaping how modern companies manage employee leave.

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Nancy Davis. At age 8, Nancy watched her mother make what she instinctively knew was a terrible financial decision—buying an excessive number of Persian carpets from a traveling merchant parked in a semi-truck on the side of the road. While most kids would have stayed quiet, Nancy spoke up. She not only convinced her mother that the purchase was reckless, but she also successfully negotiated a return of the carpets her family couldn't afford and didn't have room for. That early lesson in financial prudence shaped much of what followed, from Nancy's decade at Goldman Sachs to founding her own investment firm, Quadratic Capital, in 2013. Nancy Davis founded Quadratic Capital in 2013. Nancy is the portfolio manager for The Quadratic Interest Rate Volatility and Inflation Hedge ETF (NYSE Ticker: IVOL) and The Quadratic Deflation ETF (NYSE Ticker: BNDD). Prior to founding Quadratic, Nancy spent nearly a decade at Goldman Sachs primarily with the proprietary trading group (Goldman Sachs Principal Strategies) where she rose to become the Head of Credit, Derivatives and OTC Trading and headed the team for about 5 years for the prop desk. She also served as a portfolio manager at JP Morgan's hedge fund and in a senior executive role at AllianceBernstein. Nancy has been the recipient of numerous industry recognitions. Barron's named her to their inaugural list of the "100 Most Influential Women in U.S. Finance." Institutional Investor called her a "Rising Star of Hedge Funds." The Hedge Fund Journal tapped her as one of "Tomorrow's Titans." Nancy has been profiled by Forbes, and interviewed by The Economist, The Wall Street Journal, and The Financial Times. Nancy is a frequent guest on financial television including CNBC, Bloomberg, and Fox Business. She is a sought-after speaker for industry events.

She shares the pivotal moments that shaped her journey: studying in Germany as a child, navigating post-Communist economic reform in Poland, and forgoing a job at Goldman Sachs to pursue policy at the International Monetary Fund.

During their time at Rice Business, Mike Tatz '14 and Corban Bates '15 saw an opportunity to connect veterans with capital and the network needed to start a business. As veterans themselves, they understood how important it is to have the right connections and platform to pitch an idea. With that, the Veterans Business Battle was born. But Mike and Corban's story starts long before Rice. The two first met as students at West Point and followed similar paths — from Division I athletics to Army service to financial services, and eventually entrepreneurship. After launching the Veterans Business Battle and earning their MBAs at Rice, Mike went on to found a CBD company for athletes, and Corban began overseeing direct investments into private companies — now serving as the chief financial officer for one of those investments. Mike and Corban join co-host Maya Pomroy '22 to chat about how their time at West Point shaped them, what brought them to Rice Business and the impact the Veterans Business Battle has had over the past decade. Episode Guide:00:00 From Battlefield to Boardroom: Meet Mike and Corban03:01 Life at West Point: Challenges and Lessons08:38 Transitioning From Military to Business School12:57 Creating the Veterans Business Battle20:18 The First Prize and Investor Opportunities22:15 The Journey and Impact of the Competition24:01 Career Transitions and Personal Growth25:29 Mike's Venture Into the Sports Industry27:57 Corban's Path to Artisan Bakery33:43 Final Thoughts and Advice for Aspiring EntrepreneursOwl Have You Know is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:The conversation that led Corban from Army to business school09:55: [Corban Bates] Mike's been a huge blessing in my life, 'cause business school wasn't really even on my radar. It's just kind of going up and down the aisles of the career conference, and there were probably 20 schools there, but I didn't talk to any of 'em. It wasn't on my radar, and I talked to Mike. I just ran into him and it's like, “Hey, how have you been?” Like, you know, all for Rice. He was there recruiting for Rice — Rice had a booth — and he starts telling me about it. And he was just about to start this internship at Goldman Sachs, and he had this amazing first year at Rice, and it just sets you up…[10:24] Yeah, I just ran towards it and was extremely fortunate to get in, and Mike completely changed the course of my career. If I hadn't run into him, then things would be very different.On unapologetically pursuing what lights you up34:29: [Mike Tatz] I think a lot of people, even at business school, they get very pigeonholed into thinking that they have to be a consultant or an investment banker because they think about the financial support that it is going to give them or the safety net. There is a gazillion ways to make money out there. I think you have got to be happy. You have got to be happy. And you can be, but you have got to take that leap. You have got to have a plan. And then once you figure out what it is, you go, baby. You go as hard as you can, and you make everybody else think that you are crazy for how hard you are working at whatever you are doing. If you do that, I think good things are going to happen.Why veterans and business school are a perfect match17:09: [Corban Bates] Rice came up with this concept of really bringing on more veterans to their business school. I think it's a great match of veterans being very far along in their leadership development and people management development by the time they're in their late twenties, but being behind on the business concepts. And then you pair, you know, the rest of the civilians who are advanced in their business concepts but are probably lacking on the leadership front — probably haven't led that much in their twenties. And so it's this great pairing where both sides can learn from each other.The business network gap veterans face13:35: [Mike Tatz] I don't think veterans need any special treatment, nor should they expect — or do we expect — any special treatment. But what I do think is the case is that, going back to that last example — let's say I do want to start a business. I'm starting a business. There are a lot of steps to it, but one of those steps that is crucial is capital. And so my network, being in the military, is Army sergeants, Army majors, privates — whatever it may be, right? They're not the Goldman Sachs folks. They're not the people looking to make investments into companies. They're not the people with the means to not only provide financial capital, but mentorship capital and experience capital that you would need as somebody being in the military, coming out and trying — and wanting — to start your own business.Show Links: TranscriptGuest Profiles:Mike Tatz | LinkedInCorban Bates | LinkedInVeterans Business Battle

Instead, his 60th birthday marked the beginning of an ambitious new chapter.The Child Civil Education Foundation represents his commitment to extend quality education beyond the walls of his successful school to reach underprivileged children throughout Ghana. With a substantial personal investment and a laser focus on teacher development in public and low-fee private schools, this initiative tackles the fundamental challenges facing Ghana's education system. The conversation explores why basic education has been neglected, revealing how public schools have deteriorated to the point where even teachers don't enroll their own children – yet these institutions serve the country's most vulnerable populations.Drawing inspiration from Bill Gates' philosophy of not wanting to "die rich," this educator challenges successful Africans to reciprocate the goodwill they've received from global philanthropists. His insights on working alongside his spouse, balancing motivation with discipline, and addressing systemic educational inequality provide a blueprint for meaningful impact. Whether you're passionate about education, philanthropy, or creating lasting change in developing nations, this conversation offers both inspiration and practical wisdom for making a difference where it matters most.Ready to explore how quality education can transform lives and communities?

We persist for what matters most—for the people we lead, and the people we love.But persistence can start to feel like just another weight to carry, another demand that drains us. And people are tired. So many of us are balancing caregiving, leadership, advocacy, a constant firehose of urgent crises, and maybe sneaking in some rest. So sure, persistence sounds good, but how do we keep going without flaming out?We learn how to prune our proverbial gardens.Pruning, whether a tomato plant or an out-of-control to-do list, requires focusing on the present so we can remove what no longer serves, while protecting what still has life in it. It's persistence in action. It's what keeps us from burning it all down and walking away or from our commitments taking over our lives.Today's guest offers us a masterclass in persistence. She started small. When resistance showed up, she didn't just push through. She revisited her vision. She stayed in relationship with mentors and worked in community. And over time, she has built a global movement for disability, visibility, equity, and justice.On today's 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, Tiffany Yu shares a reminder that persistence isn't about doing it all right away or quitting when it's too much. It's about staying focused, refining our vision, and staying connected to supportive people and your mission.Tiffany Yu is the CEO and Founder of Diversability, a 3x TEDx speaker, and the author of The Anti-Ableist Manifesto: Smashing Stereotypes, Forging Change, and Building a Disability-Inclusive World. She started her career at Goldman Sachs and was named to the 2025 Forbes Accessibility 100 List. At the age of 9, Tiffany became disabled as a result of a car accident that also took the life of her father.Listen to the full episode to hear:How the seeds of Tiffany's disability activism were sown during her time at GeorgetownHow Tiffany's delayed processing of her grief and trauma impacted her ability to connect with disabled joyWhy it matters that all of us get invested in prioritizing accessibility and inclusion for the disability communityWhy accessibility is about more than just utility and needs to address the wholeness of people with disabilitiesWhat leaders can do now to craft more accessible and inclusive spaces and eventsThe importance of community and using your influence to build bridges in the face of setbacksLearn more about Tiffany Yu:WebsiteDiversabilityInstagram: @imtiffanyyuConnect on LinkedInThe Anti-Ableist Manifesto: Smashing Stereotypes, Forging Change, and Building a Disability-Inclusive WorldLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaThe Unburdened Leader on SubstackSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:The Persist NetworkEP 134: Focus, Feel, Forward: Redefining Leadership for the Long Haul with Amanda LitmanJanina FisherDr. Dan SiegelStephen Porges, PhDBest Buddies InternationalStigma FightersMade of MillionsFrancis WellerThe Power of Exclusion | Tiffany Yu | TEDxBethesdaJudith Heumann - Defying Obstacles in "Being Heumann" and "Crip Camp" | The Daily ShowWhat My Bones Know, Stephanie FooBenson Boone - Beautiful ThingsSeveranceSchitt's CreekOppenheimerReading RainbowArthurMister Rogers' NeighborhoodShine Theory: Why Powerful Women Make the Greatest FriendsThe Problem with Positivity | Tiffany Yu | TEDxYouth@CaliforniaHighSchool

Western governments claim to be models of democracy, and demonize their geopolitical adversaries as "authoritarian", but empirical evidence shows that the USA and European countries are oligarchies dominated by economic elites and large corporations. Billionaire Donald Trump is the perfect symbol of this, but he's by no means the only one. Ben Norton explains.

P.M. Edition for July 16. In comments from the White House today, President Trump denied that he was trying to oust Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, though he raised the prospect that Powell could be removed for cause. Plus, big banks like Goldman Sachs have reported bumper earnings for the second quarter. But as Journal reporter AnnaMaria Andriotis tells us, the factors that made the quarter so strong may not continue into the next few months. And Oracle, the software company founded nearly 50 years ago, is striking big deals for artificial intelligence that's boosting its stock price. WSJ Heard on the Street columnist Dan Gallagher joins to discuss what it would take for Oracle to become one of the biggest names in AI. Alex Ossola hosts.
