Welcome to another episode of HALO Talks! Today, host Pete Moore sits down with Duff McDonald, former investment banker and well known business journalist, for a fantastic chat. Duff, whose career has spanned investment banking, business journalism, and bestselling books like “The Golden Passport” and “Tickled,” shares insights on how numbers and data have come to dominate our understanding of business and life—but why they often fail to capture what really matters. In this episode, you'll hear Duff break down the difference between “experts” and “specialists,” challenge conventional thinking on metrics, and advocate for living—and doing business—in the present. Pete and Duff explore why true connection, presence, and awareness can lead to better decisions, stronger relationships, and more meaningful work, especially in the world of health clubs and other verticals in the HALO sector. Whether you're an entrepreneur, leader, or simply curious about finding more joy and meaning in your day-to-day, this conversation will invite you to rethink how you measure success and what it means to build something that truly “tickles” you. When we talk about coming "full circle," Duff definitely can relate. He says, "I worked at Goldman Sachs for two years. I was an investment banker in their analyst program, left that and went into business journalism and spent 20 years as a magazine writer, left that and sort of stopped doing so much magazine writing when the Internet kind of destroyed the economics of print, and weirdly, ironically, ended up writing books after that!" Key themes discussed Numbers vs. Essence: Counting doesn't capture true meaning or human experience. Specialists vs. Experts: Doing is valued over analyzing and predicting. Relationships Over Metrics: Human connection outweighs numerical data in business. Entrepreneurship Mindset: Focus on purpose, not just growth or financial results. COVID Reflections: The pandemic brought unexpected personal growth and realizations. Recruiting and Team Building: Seek people driven by passion and engagement. A Few Key Takeaways:  1. Numbers Don't Capture the Whole Story: McDonald challenges the idea that, “if you have the numbers, you have the story.” Having spent years in business banking and journalism, he realized that while numbers can track growth or comparison, they can't really grasp the true essence of a business. Counting and data analysis are certainly valuable, but they're just one dimension—true meaning often lies elsewhere. 2. The Power of Presence Over Metrics: The most impactful moments in life and business happen when you're fully present in the moment—not distracted by the past or anxiously projecting into the future. Duff relates how, during the pandemic, his own mindset shifted to appreciating the “now,” leading to more genuine experiences and better decision-making. This is a reminder that being present—not just monitoring KPIs or quarterly numbers—can actually produce the strongest connections and best results. 3. The Difference Between Experts and Specialists: Duff makes a subtle but powerful distinction: Experts count, analyze, and predict; specialists do, master, and experience. (Read that again!) Real business insight (and life satisfaction) often comes from those with hands-on expertise—the “specialists”—rather than just those who look at or talk about the data. For example, if you're sick, you want the infectious disease specialist, not just the epidemiologist with numbers. 4. Human Connection and Authenticity Trump Data for Retention: Specifically for health clubs and service businesses, Duff and Pete agree that relationships are everything. Customer retention and loyalty aren't driven by clever data models, but by staff who are present, ask questions, and genuinely care. Looking people in the eye, building trust, and creating a real bond is more effective (and fulfilling) than merely simply tracking attrition rates or conversion numbers. 5. Find What “Tickles” You—and Others: Duff's philosophy, as explored in “Tickled,” is about seeking out what genuinely excites and engages you. When people are truly passionate (“tickled” by what they're doing), their energy is palpable and contagious—whether in recruiting, management, or customer interactions. Asking “What are you passionate about?” or “What tickles you?” leads to deeper, more meaningful relationships, both personally and professionally.

What happens when artificial intelligence meets the everyday heroes of local government? That's the question driving my conversation with Justin Dennis, co-founder and COO of Urban SDK, a geospatial AI company helping more than 250 North American cities make faster, safer, and smarter decisions. Justin shares how a Smart Cities Challenge from the U.S. Department of Transportation inspired him to co-found Urban SDK in 2018, and why he believes the future of public safety depends on replacing manual data collection with real-time intelligence. From traffic fatalities to hurricane recovery, he explains how the company's HALO platform gives local leaders and emergency responders the insights they need to act before crises escalate. In a single platform, they can identify dangerous road zones, predict high-risk intersections, coordinate clean-up operations, and rebuild infrastructure based on data rather than guesswork. We also explore how AI is quietly reshaping government operations, from disaster management to traffic enforcement. Justin discusses the challenges of introducing cutting-edge technology into systems that still rely on spreadsheets and siloed workflows. Yet his optimism is clear. He believes governments are beginning to embrace AI not as a buzzword but as a practical tool to save time, resources, and lives. As one Florida community recently reported a 40 percent drop in traffic fatalities, the impact is already measurable. Urban SDK's story is about technology meeting public service with purpose. So as we enter another year of rapid AI progress, how can data-driven insights continue to empower local leaders to protect citizens and improve quality of life? And what could your city achieve if every decision were powered by real-time intelligence? Share your thoughts after the episode.

Alan is joined by the multi-talented Dr. Brady Smith, a dentist, standup comedian, and social media sensation. They dive into Dr. Smith's fascinating dual career, exploring whether he's a dentist who does comedy or a comedian who does dentistry, ultimately concluding he's a highly successful dual-profession guy. Dr. Smith shares his journey from running the noble but challenging Halo Dental Network charity—which led to his earlier podcast—to receiving a $15,000 piece of coaching advice that transformed his career: get on TikTok and be the face of his brand. He details his rapid rise to social media fame, the freedom it gives him to be authentic, and how he handles both the viral success and the inevitable "haters," including dealing with board complaints about his unique (and fully legal) "Laughing My Gas Off" podcast where he cleans celebrity and comic's teeth while they're on nitrous oxide. They also discuss the pressures and mental toll of dental practice, the difference between how dental professionals and the general public value dentistry, and Dr. Smith's successful experiment with a twice-weekly, 16-hour workday schedule. Dr. Smith offers advice to patients to "keep trying" to find a dentist they can relate to and encourages his peers to "stop sucking so bad" and be more approachable.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop speaks with Paul Sztorc, CEO of Layer2 Labs, about Bitcoin's evolution, the limitations of the Lightning Network, and how his ideas for drivechains and merge-mined sidechains could transform scalability and privacy on the Bitcoin network. They cover everything from Zcash's zero-knowledge proofs and “moon math” to the block size wars, sound money, and the economic realities behind crypto hype cycles. Paul also explains his projects like Zside and Thunder, which aim to bring features like Zcash-style privacy and high-speed transactions to Bitcoin. Listeners can try Layer2 Labs' software or learn more at layer2labs.com/download.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop opens with Paul Sztorc from Layer2 Labs, discussing the connection between Bitcoin and Zcash and how privacy could be added through zero-knowledge proofs.05:00 Paul critiques early Layer 2s like Rootstock and Lightning, calling many “not real” or custodial, and compares the current scene to the .com bubble.10:00 They explore media hype, Silicon Valley culture, and crypto's cycles of optimism and collapse, mentioning Theranos, FTX, and fake-it-till-you-make-it culture.15:00 Conversation shifts to sound money, government spending, and how Bitcoin could improve fiscal responsibility, referencing Milton Friedman's ideas.20:00 Paul questions Bitcoin treasury companies like MicroStrategy, explaining flawed incentives and better direct ownership logic.25:00 They move into geopolitics and The Sovereign Individual, discussing borders, state control, and the future of digital sovereignty.30:00 Paul explains zero-knowledge proofs, Zcash's “moon math,” and the evolution from sapling to Halo 2 for better privacy.35:00 The topic turns to drivechains, BIP300, and Layer2 Labs' projects like Zside and Thunder, built for real Bitcoin scalability.40:00 Paul explains why Lightning fails, liquidity limits, and why true scaling requires optional L2s with large block capacity.45:00 They discuss the block size war, merge mining, and how miners and nodes interact in Bitcoin's structure.50:00 Paul breaks down the Merkle tree, block headers, and SHA-256 puzzles miners race to solve for proof-of-work.55:00 The episode closes with how L1–L2 coordination works, the mechanics of slow withdrawals, and secondary markets in drivechains.Key InsightsBitcoin's privacy gap and Zcash's influence: Paul Sztorc begins by explaining how Bitcoin lacks true privacy since senders, receivers, and amounts are visible on-chain. He describes Zcash as a model for achieving anonymity through zero-knowledge proofs and explains how Layer2 Labs aims to bring that same level of privacy to Bitcoin without introducing a new altcoin or token.The failure of current Layer 2 solutions: Paul argues that existing Bitcoin Layer 2s like Lightning and Rootstock are flawed—either custodial, inefficient, or deceptive. He compares today's crypto landscape to the dot-com bubble, full of overhyped projects and scams that will collapse before the genuine solutions survive.Sound money and political accountability: The discussion expands beyond technology to economics, as Paul highlights how unsustainable government debt and spending distort incentives. He believes Bitcoin could restore discipline to fiscal systems by forcing real accounting and limiting the political capacity to inflate or borrow endlessly.Corporate Bitcoin strategies are often misguided: Paul criticizes companies like MicroStrategy for treating Bitcoin as a speculative treasury asset instead of using it for real utility. He argues that investors should just buy Bitcoin directly rather than buy shares in companies that hold it, since intermediaries introduce unnecessary risk, fees, and opacity.Drivechains as Bitcoin's missing scalability link: Sztorc presents drivechains, outlined in his proposal BIP300, as the practical way to scale Bitcoin. Drivechains allow multiple Layer 2s to exist simultaneously, each optimized for specific features like privacy, larger blocks, or smart contracts, all while using the same 21 million BTC.Lightning Network's structural limitations: Paul dismantles Lightning's core assumptions, pointing out that it cannot scale globally because each channel requires on-chain transactions and constant liquidity maintenance. He calls Lightning a “Theranos of Bitcoin,” arguing that it distracts the community from genuine, scalable innovation.Merge mining and the path to Bitcoin's future: The episode concludes with Paul describing merge mining as the mechanism that unites L1 and L2 securely, letting miners earn more revenue without extra work. He envisions a Bitcoin ecosystem where optional, diverse L2s provide privacy, speed, and flexibility—anchored by a lean, reliable L1 base.

On this episode of HALO Talks, host Pete Moore sits down with Logan Chierotti, founder of Physician's Choice supplements, to dig into the in's and out's of building a high-growth company in the HALO space. Logan discusses his journey from working in digital marketing to launching what is now the top probiotic brand on Amazon, with annual revenues approaching $250 million. He opens up about the importance of focusing on value and science-backed products, the challenges of navigating both e-com and retail distribution, and the lessons learned in building a top-tier executive team. Whether you're a health club operator considering selling supplements or an entrepreneur looking for growth tips, you'll want to hear Logan's takeaways on company culture, self-awareness, and long-term success in a rapidly evolving, highly-competitive space. When it comes to educating customers beyond just price, Logan states, "We wanted to give consumers value. And what's nice is with the Internet or e-commerce or even . . . med spas or health clubs, is you can educate the consumer more, right? They come into your store or they come online and you have all the marketing there so you can really educate them as opposed to just dropping your product in Walmart, which is a pure brand or commodity game. People are buying there based on price or based on packaging, versus when you control the distribution channels, you can educate them a lot more." Key themes discussed Transition from e-commerce to retail distribution strategies. Building a high-quality executive and leadership team. Navigating retailer partnerships and managing risk. Importance of a singular brand focus: Probiotics and gut health. Educating versus marketing to the consumer. Value and growth of subscription business models. Founder self-awareness and letting go of ego. A Few Key Takeaways:  1. Hyper-Growth Through Strategic Focus: Logan shared how Physician's Choice grew quickly by narrowing their initial focus to just probiotics and gut health. Rather than trying to be everything to everyone, they became the top probiotic brand by focusing on a science-backed, in-demand supplement. 2. Controlling Distribution—Don't Chase Every Retailer: Logan emphasized the importance of controlling your own distribution channels, especially in the early stages. He cautioned against being seduced by “sexy” big box retail deals, which often shift risk onto the product provider and can become a logistical and financial nightmare. Physician's Choice only says yes to retailers who agree to their terms. 3. Value-Driven Brand Built on Education: The brand positioned itself as a value brand—affordable, yet backed by science and trust in the name. They focused on educating consumers through controlled channels like e-commerce and social media rather than relying on traditional retail, where purchasing decisions are much more driven by price and packaging. 4. Building a Strong Executive Team: Chierotti's biggest learning was recognizing his own strengths and weaknesses early. He surrounded himself with a high-level executive team, brought in a CEO when the company reached a certain size, and freely gave equity to key hires. He stressed that hiring smart people and getting out of their way was crucial to scaling up. 5. The Power and Patience of the Subscription Model: About 40-50% of Physician's Choice revenue comes from subscriptions—compounded over years. Logan pointed out how businesses (health clubs, supplement companies, etc.) often underestimate how long and compounding subscription revenue can take to build, but if you stick with it and focus on customer retention, the growth will come.

All anyone wants to talk about right now is Electronic Arts, and reasonably so. The American publishing titan is on the verge of being purchased by external interests for $55 billion, and when we say external, we mean it. The major player in reverting EA to a private corporation is Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund, muddying this already complex deal that also happens to be the largest leveraged buyout in human history. Perhaps not surprisingly, this gives us much to pontificate on. Other news this week includes rumblings of a DualSense revision with a removable battery, the very real potential that a Prototype remaster is imminent, the wisdom (or perhaps lack thereof) in Forza Horizon 6 skipping PlayStation 5 at launch, and more. We then get into listener inquiries to wrap up the show, as we always do. What are our thoughts on Xbox's staggering Game Pass price hike? How do we feel about Magic: The Gathering's stylish new collaboration with PlayStation? Is Destiny officially on death's door? Will Dustin have a coffee named after him at a cafe in Texas?

The conversation looks at the impact cults can have on people, the characteristics we see in today's culture, and how we can wisely come alongside friends and family who may be involved in such groups.

(00:00:00) Mercury's Shrinking Secrets: Insights into the Solar System's Smallest Planet (00:00:43) Mercury's Ongoing Shrinkage (00:03:11) NASA's Carruthers Geocorona Observatory (00:11:52) Insights from Martian Meteorite NWA 16254 (00:14:23) Tech News In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore the intriguing dynamics of Mercury's shrinking size, embark on a mission to unveil Earth's elusive exosphere, and uncover the secrets of ancient volcanic activity on Mars.Mercury's Ongoing ShrinkageRecent research published in AGU Advances reveals that Mercury continues to shrink as it cools, a process that has been ongoing since its formation 4.6 billion years ago. Scientists have estimated that the planet's radius has contracted by between 2.7 to 5.6 kilometres due to cooling-induced faulting. This study employs new methods to provide a more accurate understanding of Mercury's long-term thermal history, which could also be applied to other planetary bodies, including Mars.NASA's Carruthers Geocorona ObservatoryNASA has launched the Carruthers Geocorona Observatory to study Earth's invisible halo, the exosphere. This mission aims to capture the first continuous observations of the Geocorona, revealing the dynamics of hydrogen atoms escaping into space. Understanding the exosphere's response to solar activity is crucial for predicting space weather events that could affect astronauts on missions to the Moon and beyond. The observatory will provide insights into how Earth retains water and may even aid in the search for exoplanets with similar atmospheric conditions.Insights from Martian Meteorite NWA 16254A meteorite discovered in the Zaharov Desert is shedding light on Mars's ancient volcanic systems. The rock, classified as NWA 16254, offers unprecedented insights into the planet's magmatic processes, indicating a two-stage crystallisation process that occurred under varying pressure conditions. This discovery could help scientists understand Mars's thermal history and its volcanic evolution over billions of years, raising questions about the planet's past and its potential for hosting life.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAGU Advanceshttps://agu.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/23337380NASA Geocorona Observatoryhttps://www.nasa.gov/Planetary Science Journalhttps://iopscience.iop.org/journal/2632-3338Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Mercury's Ongoing ShrinkageNASA's Carruthers Geocorona ObservatoryInsights from Martian Meteorite NWA 16254

Released towards the end of the Nintendo 64's lifespan in 2000, Perfect Dark was the culmination of several years of FPS development on consoles.  After Rare released Goldeneye in 1997, they wanted to take another spin at the formula, but this time with an original IP.  Enter Perfect Dark, featuring many of the cornerstones of FPS design that defined Goldeneye, but far more refined.The game featured more varied level design, a ridiculous selection of weapons, improved enemy AI (with a wider range of reactions to damage) and more advanced scripting.  No longer tied down to realism, Rare was free to throw in sci-fi weapons and surreal alien environments.  And this extended to the story as well, which went to some absolutely wild places.But for all its improvements upon Goldeneye, is there a fatal flaw at the heart of N64 FPS design?  Or is it just an awkward middle child, playing in the shadows of both the PC behemoths and the specter of Halo?On this episode, we discuss:Level DesignPerfect Dark retains the mission structure of Goldeneye, with multiple objectives set in short and sharp missions.  Do the improved and better explained mission objectives bring a clarity to the mission design that Goldeneye lacked, or is it still confusing and incoherent?GunsPerfect Dark has an absolute plethora of weapons, from guided rocket launchers to wallhack alien sniper rifles.  Does its wide variety of weapons provide a deep and replayable moment to moment gameplay experience, or is it undone by its identity as a hitscan FPS?EnemiesMost of the enemies you face in Perfect Dark are regular humans, who die in a single headshot.  What does the game do to add challenge and variety to the FPS hitscanning experience of clicking on heads, and is it way too easy with a mouse and keyboard?We answer these questions and many more on the 134th episode of the Retro Spectives Podcast!—Intro Music: KieLoBot - Tanzen KOutro Music: Rockit Maxx - One point to anotherPerfect Dark OST: Grant Kirkhope—What was your favourite level in Perfect Dark?  Are there any indie FPS games coming out (or already out) that are evocative of its design?  Did you find there was anything at all remotely redeeming about the story?  Come let us know what you think on our community discord server!You can support the show monetarily on our Buy me a Coffee Page!

Mitchell Frederick - Null Halo (Original Mix) www.nocturnalradio.live // www.mitchellfrederick.com Look at me… don't look away, We've both been hiding, But the night won't keep secrets. Null halo… burning slow, Your body tells me all I need to know, Breath is heavy, shadows show, Stay right here, don't let go. Your eyes cut through the flashing light, Searching for something that feels right, Every move is a truth you confess, Every touch takes away the rest. The world outside can wait till dawn, Right now it's just us and the song, Skin on skin, hearts collide, The night's alive — nothing to hide. Closer… slower… Deeper… lower… Null halo… burning slow, Your body tells me all I need to know, Breath is heavy, shadows show, Stay right here, don't let go. One more touch… One more taste… Lose the fear… Erase the space. Hands explore where words won't dare, Heat in the dark, we find it there, Every heartbeat keeps the time, Your rhythm tangled into mine. No past, no lies, no blame, Only the spark, only the flame, If love exists, it sounds like this — One breath held, one endless kiss. Null halo… (hold me slow) Burning slow… (don't let go) Breath is heavy… (let it flow) Stay right here… (never say no). #Techno #TechHouse #DanceMusic #MelodicTechno #ElectronicMusic #HouseMusic #DJLife #RaveCulture #UndergroundMusic #MusicProduction #DanceVibes #FestivalSeason #Beatport #SoundCloud #MusicLovers #ClubMusic #DeepHouse #TechnoFamily #MelodicHouse #EDM #DJSet #LiveDJ #MusicMix #VinylRecords #PartyVibes #BassMusic #Trance #MusicCommunity #Dancefloor #ElectronicDanceMusic
