Podcasts about Granola

A former NBA star vanishes after a trip home to Memphis, and for days no one knows where he went. Then a missed 911 call, a body in a field, and a murder weapon recovered years later begin to expose a conspiracy no one saw coming.A story of failed plans, shifting stories, and the long trail of evidence that finally brought the truth into focus. Beneath the headlines was a father of six, a hometown hero, and a family left waiting years for answers.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

In December 2012, a quiet Houston home became the center of a mystery that still raises questions.Jim Melgar was found dead inside a closet. Just steps away, his wife Sandra was discovered alive, bound, and unable to explain how the night had unfolded.There were no clear signs of forced entry. No witnesses. Only a scene that could be read more than one way.What followed was a case built on interpretation, memory gaps, and the question of what really happened behind closed doors.A video version of this episode is available on YouTube and SpotifyHow to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

What happens when everyone can build, but no one breaks through the noise?In this episode of Supra Insider, Ben Erez sits down with Elan Miller, founder and CEO of branding and design studio Off-Menu, for the podcast's first live in-person recording. Elan unpacks why this moment is uniquely challenging for brand storytelling—AI has made it easier than ever to build and ship products, but harder than ever to get people to care. He explains how the standard tech playbook (great product + clever go-to-market) no longer works when 10 competitors can copy you within a month, and why honorable points of view are the only sustainable moat.They explore Anthropic's Keep Thinking campaign and Super Bowl ads as a masterclass in positioning against OpenAI, discuss why successful positioning must repel people as much as it resonates, and unpack the Granola rebrand (including Ben's honest reaction as a customer). Elan shares why most rebrands fail (visual makeover without moving anything forward), the different reasons companies should rebrand (talent attraction, internal alignment, crossing the chasm), and his process for finding the “holy s**t insight” that makes people feel seen. Plus, how he's building AI tools that turn brand strategy into practical inputs for higher-quality outputs, and why strong point of view is the antidote to slop.If you're building in a crowded space and struggling to stand out, wondering whether a rebrand is the right move, or trying to articulate what makes you different in a way that actually resonates—this episode is for you.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

In October 2024, two men in Detroit believed they had found the perfect target. A longtime jeweler and pawnbroker whose success made him seem like easy money.They came prepared with disguises, a stolen truck, and a plan designed to look official. But when they arrived at the home of 72 year old Hussein “Sam” Murray in Rochester Hills, that plan began to collapse.A story about assumption, desperation, and how the promise of one last score can end in something far darker.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) and Philip Kiely, early employee at Baseten, discuss the inference stack: the critical layer of software and hardware that sits between a model's weights and a user's prompt. They cover inference engineering, how intermediate layers are evolving over a technical stack that is changing every six months, and how sophisticated organizations are actually consuming LLMs beyond just writing their questions into chatbot apps.–Full transcript available here: www.complexsystemspodcast.com/inference-engineering-with-philip-kiely/–Presenting Sponsors: Mercury, Meter, & GranolaComplex Systems is presented by Mercury—radically better banking for founders.

In the fall of 2021, a young couple in Cobb County, Georgia thought they'd found their dream home. An upscale subdivision. A quiet street. A perfect place to raise their two year old son.What they could not have known was that the house came with an unspoken history. A neighbor who had already crossed the line. A fear that had driven the previous owners to leave. And a threat that did not disappear when the “For Sale” sign went up.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

On a cold February night in Somerset, England, a retired couple sat down to celebrate a birthday dinner during the COVID lockdown.Hours later, police were standing outside their quiet bungalow while one of them calmly admitted what had just happened inside.What began as an ordinary evening of steak, lobster, and a video call with family would end with a husband on the kitchen floor and a case that left even seasoned investigators struggling to understand how the night had spiraled so far out of control.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) deconstructs the "original sin" of payments: building a global financial substrate on shared secrets that were distributed promiscuously to function. He examines the multi-decade game of Whack-a-Mole played by the industry to balance the "optimal amount of fraud" against the catastrophic conversion hit of high-friction security. From the physical failure of terminal buttons to the smartphone finally solving the lifecycle problem of cryptographic tokens, Patrick explores the technical and social reasons why we've moved from "something you know" to the "continuity of access" provided by the device in your pocket.–Full transcript available here: www.complexsystemspodcast.com/secondary-auth/–Presenting Sponsors: Mercury & GranolaIf you have more interesting hobbies than managing your money, Mercury Personal is built for you.

Dan Balsam and Tom McGrath from Goodfire return to explore the frontier of mechanistic interpretability and their new research pillar, Intentional Design. They explain the shift from sparse autoencoders to understanding geometric structure in latent spaces, and share a proof-of-concept method for reducing hallucinations using probes and RL. The conversation tackles concerns about reward hacking, principles for shaping the loss landscape instead of fighting backprop, and what this means for aligning powerful models. They also discuss recent Goodfire results on Alzheimer's prediction, disentangling memorization vs reasoning weights, and how they balance commercial growth with a public benefit mission.

This ScaleUp Radio episode is a ScaleUp Club special — recorded live in February — and it's packed with practical ideas you can apply immediately. Kevin Brent opens with the month's theme: gaining control of your week, moving away from reactive firefighting and towards deliberate, high-value leadership time. You'll hear a simple framework to help you protect the work that really moves the business forward, rather than letting your diary become "a democracy". Then we switch gears into a short AI Pulse update from Paul Rhodes, founder of Green Gorilla Software, who shares a genuinely useful productivity shift: stop typing and start talking. Paul explains why AI needs context, why dictation creates richer prompts, and how tools like Granola and WhisperFlow can turn messy spoken thoughts into structured, usable output. Finally, we move into a live Q&A session with Ryan Slaney, Managing Director of iLockerz, who shares the realities of scaling a product business — including the mistake that "nearly killed" them: trying to build the perfect product from day one. Ryan talks candidly about payroll reality, customer-led development, the value of weekly all-hands alignment, and spotting issues early through "Potential Red Flags". You'll hear: How to redesign your week around green time (strategic), red time (operational) and grey time (low value) Why you must put the rocks in first (or the sand will swallow your week) Paul's AI Pulse: why dictation creates better prompts and faster output Ryan's hard-won lesson: MVP, revenue and feedback loops beat perfection A simple scaling discipline: weekly all-hands, shared visibility and "PRFs" before they become fires Quick heads-up — we're looking for a handful of founders to test our new AI-powered Smart90 Lite app. It's built to help you stay accountable and actually deliver on your goals — in just a few minutes a day. It's free while we're in testing, and your feedback will directly shape the final version. You can get access by emailing kevin@biz-smart.co.uk.

Geoffrey Irving, Chief Scientist at the UK AI Security Institute, explains why our theoretical understanding of machine learning remains fragile even as models surpass experts on critical security tasks. He details AISI's work on frontier model evaluations, red teaming, and threat modeling across biosecurity, cybersecurity, and loss-of-control risks. The conversation explores reward hacking, eval awareness, and why current safety techniques may struggle to deliver high reliability. Listeners will also hear how AISI is funding foundational research to build stronger guarantees for AI safety. Nathan uses Granola to uncover blind spots in conversations and AI research.

Today, we are launching How I AI, a new weekly show dropping straight into your How I Work feed every Monday. Over the past few years, I’ve become deeply interested in AI – not because I’m a tech geek, but because I’ve seen what happens when the right tools are used in the right way. You get time back. You think more clearly. And the work itself gets better. I’m joined by Neo Aplin, who heads up inventium.ai, our AI training arm at Inventium. Neo spends his days testing tools, platforms and models so the rest of us don’t have to. In today’s show, Neo and I walk through the 13 AI tools we use every day. We cover: How Neo and I use different large language models for different kinds of thinking, writing and research Why Gemini has become my go-to for deep research How I capture meetings without recordings using Granola Privacy-first alternatives for note-taking and meetings Using Consensus to explore science-backed answers and academic research Why Perplexity is brilliant for product research and comparisons The podcast app I rely on to save ideas without breaking my listening flow How Wisprflow has replaced most of my typing Using NotebookLM to learn faster from long YouTube videos Turning spoken thoughts into journal entries with Letterly Running AI models locally for privacy, security and offline work Connect with Neo Aplin on LinkedIn and via inventium.ai, where he leads Inventium’s AI training and upskilling work with organisations and teams. And here are links to all the tools we spoke about: ChatGPT – best for thinking things through, research, and talking out rough ideas. Claude – the go-to when writing or editing and wanting something that actually sounds human. Gemini – strongest for deep research, especially when comparing results across tools. Microsoft Copilot – an AI EA inside Microsoft, working across emails, files, and documents. Granola – frictionless meeting notes that quietly capture transcripts and build smarter notes. Hyprnote – a privacy-first, local alternative to Granola that runs on your own computer. Otter – meeting transcripts with speaker labels, useful for in-person conversations. Consensus – science-backed answers pulled directly from academic research. Perplexity – ideal for product research, comparisons, reviews, and smarter shopping. Snipd – a podcast player that saves key moments with one tap, without breaking flow. Wispr Flow – fast, intelligent dictation that formats and corrects as you speak. NotebookLM – turns long YouTube videos into quick, searchable insights. Letterly – voice-based journalling that turns spoken thoughts into clean written entries.

Jason Lemkin is the founder of SaaStr, the world's largest community for software founders, and a veteran SaaS investor who has deployed over $200 million into B2B startups. After his last salesperson quit, Jason made a radical decision: replace his entire go-to-market team with AI agents. What started as an experiment has transformed into a new operating model, where 20 AI agents managed by just 1.2 humans now do the work previously handled by a team of 10 SDRs and AEs. In this conversation, Jason shares his hands-on experience implementing AI to run his sales org, including what works, what doesn't, and how the GTM landscape is quickly being transformed.We discuss:1. How AI is fundamentally changing the sales function2. Why most SDRs and BDRs will be “extinct” within a year3. What Jason is observing across his portfolio about AI adoption in GTM4. How to become “hyper-employable” in the age of AI5. The specific AI tools and tactics he's using that have been working best6. Practical frameworks for integrating AI into your sales motion without losing what works7.

Elena Verna is the head of growth at Lovable, the leading AI-powered app builder that hit $200 million in annual recurring revenue in under a year with just 100 employees. In this record fourth appearance on the podcast, Elena shares how the traditional growth playbook has been completely rewritten for AI companies. She explains why Lovable focuses on innovation over optimization, how they've shifted from activation to building new features, and why giving away their product for free has become their most powerful growth strategy.We discuss:1. Why 60% to 70% of traditional growth tactics no longer apply in AI2. Why you have to re-find product-market fit every 3 months3. The specific growth tactics driving Lovable's unprecedented growth4. Why giving away product is a growth strategy that beats paid ads5. “Minimum lovable product” as the new standard (not minimum viable product)6.

A granola shot that goes down like bourbon and lands like a health upgrade. We bring Gita, the founder of Gut BFF, into the studio with Gabby to taste three flavors, Honey Glow, Apple Cinnamon Raisin, and Chocolate Peanut Butter, and dig into the big idea behind the crunch: 20 different plant ingredients per bag, designed to help you get closer to the 30-plants-per-week guideline from the American Gut Study.Gita shares how food-first changes helped her navigate insulin resistance and post-COVID cholesterol concerns, and why prebiotics plus probiotics beat supplements alone. Think of probiotics as seeds and prebiotics as fertilizer; feed both and you generate short-chain fatty acids that support immunity, brain energy, digestion, and overall wellness. We get practical about how people really eat granola, on yogurt for texture, by the handful at 4 p.m., or as a lighter cereal, while calling out what makes this different from the usual sugar bombs: popped ancient grains for clean crunch, nuts and seeds for fiber and protein, and restrained sweetness that lets flavor win.If you're building a consumer brand, there's a playbook here. Bootstrapping forced fast feedback loops, farmers markets, yoga studios, sampler three-packs, while an FDA-inspected regional facility bridged the scary gap between home production and big co-pack runs. We talk pricing, local retail rollout, and smart timing for a raise, plus how to scale without losing quality or shelf life. There's also a cultural shift powering demand: Gen Z is leaning into gut health and clean labels, not just because of dietary restrictions like celiac or alpha-gal, but because they want snacks that feel good and actually taste great.By the end, you'll know which flavor stole the show, how to hit your plant diversity goals without overthinking breakfast, and why taste is the most underrated health strategy. Try the sampler, top your favorite yogurt, and tell us your winner. Subscribe, share with a friend who lives on “healthy” snacks, and drop a review with your flavor pick, what should the next berry be?

Today's Witness Wednesday has two stories I read on Facebook. They are stories of people giving of themselves when they didn't need to. The first one starts with one young girl's selfless acts and ends with a whole lot of people. The next one is about a man who made a lot of mistakes and yet at the end of his life does something remarkable for a little girl he didn't even know. I pray that when you hear them, you can see God moving in the world. I pray that when you hear them, you can see that yes, there are a lot of bad things going on in the world, but there is also a lot of good. We need to focus more on the good.”My name's Walter. I'm 69. I'm the night custodian at Lincoln Middle School. Been mopping these halls for 11 years. Most folks don't even know my name. I'm just "the janitor guy' who empties trash and fixes broken lockers.But I notice things. Like locker 247, every morning, I'd find food wrappers stuffed in the vents. Candy bars, chip bags, cracker boxes. At first, I thought it was just messy kids. Then I realized someone was hiding food.One night, I stayed late. Around 8 p.m., I heard the side door creak. A girl, maybe 13, sneaked in with a backpack. Went straight to locker 247, stuffed it with grocery bags, then left quickly.The next morning, the food was gone.I didn't report it. Instead, I watched. For two weeks, the same pattern. She'd stock it at night. By morning, empty.Finally, I left a note in the locker, "You're not in trouble. I just want to help. -Walter, the custodian."The next night, she came to my supply closet. Terrified. "Please don't tell anyone," she begged. Her name was Sarah. She'd been sneaking food to three younger kids, brothers whose dad worked double shifts and forgot to buy groceries. "They're too embarrassed to ask anyone," she whispered. "So I use my lunch money and... borrow from my mom's pantry."My heart shattered."What if," I said slowly, "locker 247 just... had food in it? And nobody asked questions?"Her eyes went wide.I started small. Spent $30 of my paycheck on peanut butter, bread, juice boxes. Left it in the locker overnight. By morning, gone. So I added more. Granola bars. Apples. Crackers.Then something unexpected, I found money taped inside the locker door. $5 and a note, "I'm a teacher. I know what you're doing. Here's for more food."Then $20 from someone else. "My kid graduated from Lincoln. This school saved him. Keep going."Within a month, other staff knew. The nurse donated. The librarian brought canned soup. The gym teacher left his Costco card. "Buy in bulk," he said. "I'll cover it."Locker 247 became legendary. But quiet. No announcements. No assemblies. Just... there. A place where hungry kids could take what they needed without shame.Sarah graduated last year. Came back to see me during finals week. "Walter, I'm studying social work now," she said. "Because of you. You taught me something. Hunger hides in plain sight. But so does kindness."She handed me a photo. Locker 247, but at a different school. Across town. "My college volunteer project," she smiled. "We're putting them everywhere."I cried in my supply closet that night. Sixty-nine years old, crying over a locker.Now? Seventeen schools in our county have them. They call it "The 247 Project." Stock the locker. Ask no questions. Feed the invisible kids.I'm just a janitor. I mop floors and unclog toilets. But I learned this: Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is notice. And then quietly make space for dignity.So look around. At school, work, your neighborhood. Someone's hiding their hunger. Their struggle. Their shame.Leave something behind. Food, money, hope.Locker 247 isn't just metal and paint. It's proof that caring doesn't need permission. Just action.And it starts with seeing what everyone else walks past."Let this story reach more hearts....Please follow us: AstonishingBy Mary Nelson The Death Row DonorAt County General Hospital, 6-year-old Maya's kidneys were failing. Nine months on the transplant list, and her rare blood type meant no matches. Her tiny body was shutting down.Two hundred miles away, Marcus—a number, not a name anymore—sat in a Death Row cell. Twenty years he'd been there, waiting for an execution date for a crime that destroyed lives, including his own.In his cell, he kept one possession: a faded photo of his daughter, who died at six from sudden illness. That was 25 years ago, before everything fell apart.When the prison chaplain mentioned a public plea for Maya's rare blood type, Marcus recognized it immediately—the same type he and his daughter shared. He volunteered for testing, knowing it wouldn't change his fate. The prison board suspected manipulation. The media called it a publicity stunt.He was a perfect match.After brutal legal battles, officials approved the donation as his "final act." Yesterday, handcuffed and flanked by guards in his green jumpsuit, they brought him to meet Maya before surgery.The little girl, told only that this man was "her helper," looked up at him with those wide, trusting eyes. "I want to give him a hug," she whispered."Ma'am, that's not—" a guard started, hand moving toward his weapon.But Maya, despite her weakness, slid off the bed and wrapped her arms around the kneeling inmate's neck.Marcus, untouched by kindness for two decades, closed his eyes. His cuffed hands rose gently to hold her back."You don't gotta thank me, little one," he said, voice breaking. "Just get better, alright?”Follow Us ℕ

Elizabeth's flying solo for this one and sharing the real story behind Purely Elizabeth - the part with no business plan, a muffin mix made in her mom's kitchen, and a triathlon that unexpectedly changed everything. From stumbling into the wellness world to figuring out CPG on the fly, she walks through the early days of building the brand without a roadmap. You'll hear the wins, the missteps, and the decisions that could've gone either way, plus why staying mission-led (and a little weird) has always been worth it.Episodes Here Say Hi To Elizabeth and Purely Elizabeth: Website | InstagramLiz: The Nourished Edit Mentioned: Institute for Integrative Nutrition 

If you have diabetes or if diabetes prevention is your goal, avoid these foods at all costs. Your health depends on it! Discover the 10 worst foods for diabetes that you should eliminate from your diet NOW!Eliminate ultra-processed foods from your diet now with the FREE Dr. Berg Junk Food Meter App: https://drbrg.co/47sq8MNApple Download: https://drbrg.co/3KUb6XGAndroid Download: https://drbrg.co/3KV39RV0:00 Introduction: Avoid these foods 0:13 Insulin resistance explained 2:30 Seed oils and type 2 diabetes 6:53 Insulin resistance and diabetes8:16 What not to eat if you have diabetes12:42 How to detox aldehydesLong before prediabetes and diabetes comes insulin resistance. You can be insulin resistant for 15-20 years before you develop diabetes!Chronic sugar consumption can lead to insulin resistance, but seed oils can be equally problematic. Seed oils cause damage to the cell membranes (which contain insulin receptors) and damage to the mitochondria.There is evidence that unsaturated fatty acids can reduce the risk of diabetes, but this is not the case with rancid, oxidized seed oils. These highly refined seed oils are full of toxic byproducts such as aldehydes, which create irreversible damage in the insulin receptor. The average person consumes 25%-30% of their calories from seed oils.You can have high insulin and normal blood sugar for many years. Over time, this overworks the pancreas, causing the beta cells that produce insulin to become overworked and eventually stop producing insulin, leaving the body without a mechanism to regulate blood sugar levels. Normal blood sugar should be around 80, which is equivalent to a single teaspoon of sugar in the blood, even though the average person consumes 81 to 131 teaspoons of sugar every day!If you have diabetes or you want to avoid it, avoid these foods:1. Fast food fries and fried chicken 2. Deep-fried restaurant foods 3. Chips/crisps/corn chips4. Doughnuts and pastries5. Sweetened drinks 6. Frozen breaded foods 7. Commercial salad dressing and mayo8. Instant noodles9. Granola/protein bars and cookies10. Microwave popcornTo detox aldehydes, consume more of the following nutrients: •Carnosine: grass-fed red meat•Sulfur-rich vegetables: onions, garlic, broccoli •Polyphenols: green tea, dark chocolate, pomegranate Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
