In this episode, I break down the core habits that set successful CEOs apart and how those habits directly influence organizational growth. We explore the risks of overcommitting and getting too deep into day-to-day operations, a common trap that can cloud strategic focus. I make the case for a more disciplined approach to choosing opportunities and explain why shifting from monthly to weekly performance metrics can dramatically improve agility. We also dive into the value of developing strong leaders at every level and the role of clear, consistent communication in preventing costly misunderstandings. Ultimately, this episode is designed to help leaders sharpen their habits, elevate their impact, and accelerate growth. Episode Highlights & Time Stamps 1:07 Good CEO Habits 2:56 Delegation and Ownership 5:17 The Power of Selectivity 7:27 Agility in Metrics 9:18 Building Leadership Depth 10:44 Communication Clarity 12:06 Reflecting on Improvement The Hidden Traps CEOs Fall Into: Good CEO Habits Start Here In this episode of Grow Think Tank, we're having an honest conversation about the everyday habits that can make or break a CEO's effectiveness. I'm Gene Hammett, and I'll walk you through some of the subtle traps leaders fall into, starting with the urge to say yes to everything. As CEOs, we're wired to see possibilities everywhere. I've been there myself, feeling like every new idea or opportunity could be "the one" that drives big growth. But a packed calendar isn't a sign of progress. In fact, it often pulls us away from the handful of initiatives that truly move the business forward. We also dig into one of the biggest bad habits: trying to stay involved in every operational detail. Research shows that CEOs spend an incredible amount of time in meetings, up to 72%, according to Harvard. That's a lot of hours that could be spent on creativity, strategy, and vision. I talk about how letting go, delegating more intentionally, and staying out of the weeds is actually one of the Good CEO Habits that fuels growth. Choosing the Right Opportunities: Not All "Yeses" Are Created Equal Next, we talk about the cultural pressure inside organizations to chase every possibility. Saying yes feels productive, but spreading yourself too thin rarely leads to meaningful impact. I share why developing a disciplined approach to opportunity selection is a hallmark of Good CEO Habits. Leaders who grow consistently don't chase more; they chase better. Warren Buffett said it best: the difference between successful people and really successful people is that the latter say no to almost everything. From there, we explore how shifting from monthly performance metrics to weekly check-ins can transform agility. Monthly metrics tell you what went wrong last month. Weekly metrics help you fix what's happening right now. That faster feedback loop helps teams stay aligned, spot issues early, and maintain momentum. Build Leaders, Build Clarity, Build Growth Finally, we look inward, specifically at how CEOs develop the strength of their team and the clarity of their communication. A powerful CEO doesn't try to be an expert in everything. Instead, they build depth in their leadership team, ensuring every department has someone capable, confident, and empowered. Closing those leadership gaps is essential for scaling it's another core Good CEO Habit that separates high-growth organizations from the rest. We also talk about communication, the kind of communication that goes beyond "good enough." Assumptions create confusion, rework, and frustration. Clear, intentional communication creates alignment and trust. I share how being explicit rather than vague can eliminate misunderstandings before they start. Throughout the episode, I encourage you to reflect on your own habits. Which ones are helping you grow, and which ones might be holding you back? When we ask better questions about how we lead, we uncover opportunities to evolve both as individuals and as organizations. That's what we aim for here on Grow Think Tank: helping leaders become more effective, more intentional, and more equipped to scale with confidence. Key Takeaways Fewer commitments lead to better focus. Saying yes to everything creates noise. The most effective CEOs choose opportunities selectively and focus on initiatives that truly drive growth. Staying out of the weeds is a leadership strength. CEOs who try to oversee every detail lose valuable time for strategy, creativity, and vision. Delegation is not just helpful it's essential. Weekly metrics create agility. Shifting from monthly to weekly performance reviews helps teams catch issues earlier, adapt faster, and maintain momentum. Depth in leadership beats well-roundedness. CEOs don't need to be experts in every area they need strong leaders around them. Building leadership capacity at every level accelerates scale. Clarity in communication prevents costly mistakes. "Good enough" communication isn't good enough. Explicit, intentional clarity avoids misunderstandings and keeps teams aligned. Good CEO Habits require intentional reflection. Sustainable growth comes from regularly reassessing your habits, asking better leadership questions, and making small adjustments with big impact. Ideal For: Founders, CEOs, executives, managers, and anyone committed to elevating their leadership capacity. Resources & Next Steps Ready to take your leadership energy to the next level?

Harvard has announced that it is launching a fresh review of its connections to Epstein after new emails and documents were released showing long -standing ties between Epstein and former Harvard president Lawrence Summers. The released materials show that Summers maintained communications with Epstein well after Epstein's 2008 conviction for solicitation of prostitution of a minor, including advice-seeking messages and email exchanges in 2017-2019. The university's statement says the review will look into “information concerning individuals at Harvard included in the newly released Epstein documents to evaluate what actions may be warranted.”This comes on the heels of a previous investigation (completed circa 2020) which found that Epstein had made sizeable donations to Harvard (about $9 million between 1998–2008) and had access to Harvard campus facilities — including an office — even after his conviction. The new probe focuses not only on Summers but also on other Harvard affiliates named in the documents (including Summers's wife, Harvard professor Elisa New). The scandal is reopening questions about how institutions handled Epstein's donations, access and post-conviction privileges.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Clay spent the entire first hour of Episode #1105 tearing into the newly unsealed Jeffrey Epstein court files with the kind of no-filter commentary that only he delivers. Bottom line: there never was and never will be a magical “client list.” The real blackmail material is locked away in intelligence-agency vaults, buried in boxes inside boxes, and no one from Congress to the President himself will ever get the keys, because that leverage is still far too valuable.   What was just released is a batch of documents Epstein's estate quietly handed to Democrats years ago, files they sat on for over a decade because they make their own side look horrific while barely touching Republicans. Clay's prediction is blunt: this isn't about nailing Trump (Trump was the original whistleblower two-and-a-half decades ago, which is exactly why Epstein and his handlers despised him and fed dirt to Democrat operatives). Instead, it's the younger Democrat guard—AOC, Ro Khanna, and that whole crowd—finally shoving the compromised old guard (Bill Clinton, the former Harvard president, and a laundry list of others) off the ship so they can take the wheel. It's a Democrat civil war playing out in slow motion.   He hammered the hypocrisy hard: the same people now screaming “justice for the victims” had total control of the government during both Obama terms and the Biden “third Obama term” and did absolutely nothing while Epstein operated in plain sight. Every single victim is in their mid-40s now, cashed massive settlement checks, signed iron-clad NDAs, and could name names tomorrow if they actually wanted “justice” more than money; they don't.   Clay wrapped it up with a stone-cold reality check: Democrats had zero sacred cows when it came to smearing Trump, even if that meant openly colluding with a convicted pedophile in 2019. The release is pure political theater designed to burn aging Democrat power brokers while the new guard consolidates control. Trump walks away looking cleaner than ever, and the real files stay buried forever. Raw, unapologetic, and vintage Clay.

Within the last week since the House Oversight Committee released the Jeffrey Epstein emails, more of Epstein’s dealings have come to light. Some emails revealed that Epstein made a sizable donation to former Harvard University president Larry Summers’ wife, Elisa New, a prominent Harvard poetry professor, which enabled her to expand her academic reach. According to the Boston Globe, this donation or “gift” did not appear in Harvard's 2020 report on Epstein donations to the university.

Second, referring to Epstein as little more than a "constituent" is like referring to Bill Cosby as just a "Pudding Pop salesman" while neglecting his other obvious history. https://twitter.com/tomselliott/status/1991175194908782619?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1991175194908782619%7Ctwgr%5Eac2f6a2c78cd6d4359fa04dfc99c2d4a4b998c16%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Frusty-weiss%2F2025%2F11%2F19%2Fplaskett-delivers-jaw-dropping-explanation-of-why-she-texted-jeffrey-epstein-during-congressional-hearing-n2196340 https://twitter.com/RapidResponse47/status/1991167379791917155?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1991167379791917155%7Ctwgr%5Eac2f6a2c78cd6d4359fa04dfc99c2d4a4b998c16%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Frusty-weiss%2F2025%2F11%2F19%2Fplaskett-delivers-jaw-dropping-explanation-of-why-she-texted-jeffrey-epstein-during-congressional-hearing-n2196340 Source: redstate.com https://twitter.com/RealSLokhova/status/1990992088872190189?s=20   of impeaching the President.

SHOCKER: Numerous Members of Bill Clinton's Administration Were Visitors at Epstein's Island Bill Clinton's Administration was infested with creeps who reportedly visited Epstein Island. President Trump is right.  It is time to investigate the Clintons and the entire Democrat Party for their connections to Jeffrey Epstein.    We reported in 2019 that investigative reporter Conchita Sarnoff, the author of “Trafficking” on the Jeffrey Epstein case, joined Shannon Bream and said Bill Clinton flew on Epstein's plane 27 times and ALMOST EVERY TIME that Clinton was on the plane there were underage girls on the plane. Sarnoff also said Bill Clinton was lying about his flights with Jeffrey Epstein. The Clintons were also regular visitors at Epstein's ranch in New Mexico. Al Gore We also learned in 2019 after a release of files from the first Epstein case that one woman claimed Al Gore was at Epstein's Island. A woman who claims she was a sex slave for billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein says she met former vice president Al Gore, according to documents unsealed on Friday. The documents were made public Friday after a U.S. Court of Appeals upheld a lower court decision to make public more than 2,000 pages of court filings in a since-settled 2015 defamation case brought by Virginia Roberts against Epstein confidant and aide Ghislaine Maxwell. Larry Summers We uncovered in 2019 that Larry Summers, the creepy former President of Harvard and President Clinton's Secretary of Treasury, flew numerous times on Jeffrey Epstein's jet and even flew to Epstein's so called ‘Orgy Island'.   Source: joehoft.com https://twitter.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/status/1990869778764910819?s=20 https://twitter.com/RealSLokhova/status/1991114085724033393?s=20  squeaky clean.

"NO LIMITS: FROM THE PROJECTS TO THE PEAK OF POWER" Follow us on all our social platforms @GrantCardone In this powerhouse episode of The Cardone Zone, Grant brings you two extraordinary stories of ascent from nothing to the top of the business world—real-life proof that your beginnings don't determine your finish line. First, Grant sits down with a real-estate force who went from $600 in his pocket to managing a $4 BILLION development pipeline. He breaks down the mindset shift that took him from pumping gas and cleaning dental offices to building Angel's Landing, one of the boldest developments in downtown Los Angeles.  His message is clear: Cash flow beats net worth. Money should work harder than you do. Action destroys excuses. His journey—from a childhood shaped by the struggles of the segregation era to sitting at the table with Senators, bankers, and decision-makers by age 26—proves that the American Dream belongs to anyone willing to hustle, learn, and never quit. Then Grant welcomes Lloyd Blankfein, former CEO of Goldman Sachs, a man who helped generate over half a trillion dollars in revenue during his run. But instead of a privileged Wall Street origin story, Lloyd reveals the truth: He grew up in Brooklyn public housing, hustling from age 13—selling popcorn at Yankee Stadium, delivering prescriptions, tutoring for $1.50 an hour—all fueled by one thing: escaping poverty. His parents worked blue-collar jobs, and the motivation of "no choice but to succeed" pushed him from a tough NYC school to Harvard on a scholarship, and eventually to the top of global finance. Lloyd shares what it was like sitting across from titans like Bezos, Musk, and the world's most powerful financial players—proving that ambition, discipline, and refusing to stay stuck can take you from the projects to the pinnacle of power. This episode is pure jet fuel for anyone ready to stop making excuses and start making moves.

Hey Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our conversation with Kelly Sullivan Walden, and today we're going way deeper into the subconscious. Kelly breaks down why recurring dreams, “random” dream characters, and emotional themes aren't accidents,  they're messages from your inner world asking to be understood, healed, or completed. She also introduces us to her JET SET dream-decoding formula and explains how to use Image Rehearsal Therapy (a powerful technique studied at Harvard) to re-enter a dream, resolve stuck emotions, and finally get the peace or closure you've been craving. PLUS, we explore the difference between ego goals and soul goals, why manifesting doesn't work unless the subconscious feels safe, and how to use nighttime intention-setting to magnetize what you actually want (and not what stresses you out). And if you've ever had recurring dreams about missing flights, running late, or old relationships resurfacing? Kelly helps the booth break down exactly what those dreams reveal… you don't want to miss this one!  HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Recurring dreams show you exactly where you're still stuck. When the same dream keeps returning, it's your subconscious highlighting the fear, wound, or belief you're finally ready to outgrow. Soul goals create real alignment in your life. When you shift from chasing external “wins” to connecting with the deeper feeling you truly want, your energy changes, and your subconscious stops resisting what you're trying to manifest. Your dreams reveal the gap between the life you're living and the life you're meant for. Themes like being left behind, running late, or choosing a different path mirror the real choices you're afraid to make. When you interpret them, you gain clarity on what needs to shift so you can finally move forward. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Thrive Causemetics: https://thrivecausemetics.com/healsquad Get 20% OFF with this link!  Briotech: https://shopbriotech.com/ Use Code: HEALSQUAD for 20% off  GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kellyswalden/  Website: https://www.kellysullivanwalden.com/  Book: https://go.shopmy.us/p-31008148  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Today's Headlines: The House finally voted on releasing the Epstein files, and it was a blowout: 427–1, with Louisiana Republican Clay Higgins as the lone no vote. Speaker Mike Johnson is still trying to get the Senate to redact names (interesting), but survivors held a powerful press conference beforehand urging Trump to stop playing politics and just release the files himself. Meanwhile, the first real accountability domino fell: Larry Summers is stepping back from Harvard and the Center for American Progress over his deep Epstein ties — though OpenAI's board is staying suspiciously quiet about whether he's out there too. Over in the Oval Office, Trump hosted Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman for what was supposed to be a big investment-and-F-35s photo op, but it immediately derailed when reporters asked about Epstein and, awkwardly, MBS's role in the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. Trump waved that off with a casual “things happen,” then snapped at ABC's Mary Bruce for asking why he hasn't released the Epstein files, calling her a “terrible reporter” and demanding ABC lose its broadcast license. Very normal, very innocent behavior. In foreign policy news, the UK has reportedly stopped sharing intel on drug smuggling boats over concerns about recent U.S. strikes — something Secretary of State Marco Rubio swears is absolutely not happening because “it didn't come up once.” The courts were also busy. A federal judge said the DOJ's case against James Comey may have been tainted by “profound investigative missteps,” another court blocked Texas's new gerrymandered congressional map for 2026 (pending the inevitable SCOTUS appeal), and a bankruptcy judge finally approved a $7 billion Purdue Pharma settlement after six years of legal trench warfare — money that will go to families, governments, hospitals, and tribes devastated by the opioid crisis.

Palmer Luckey got fired from Meta for backing the wrong candidate—now he's the hero saving American defense, and that shift tells you everything about how fast the ground moved beneath Silicon Valley's feet. For decades, tech and defense were allies, then came 15 years of hostility so visceral that Google employees revolted over a Pentagon AI contract, and when leadership caved, only three people showed up to hear what border security actually involves. But something broke: COVID exposed our inability to make things, Ukraine revealed wars now iterate in days not decades, and suddenly the Harvard dorm room generation realized the people building satellites and drones weren't just necessary—they were the future, while legacy defense contractors still operate on Soviet-style five-year plans that guarantee cost overruns and obsolescence. Now the question isn't whether Silicon Valley returns to its Cold War roots, but whether America wins by becoming more like China's centralized system or doubles down on the chaotic creativity that built nine of the world's ten most valuable companies in 25 years—and the founders flooding into defense, energy, mining, and manufacturing suggest the second American century is just getting started.Resources:Follow Ben on X: https://x.com/bhorowitzFollow Marc on X: https://x.com/pmarcaFollow Katherine on X: https://x.com/KTmBoyleFollow David on X: https://x.com/daviduFollow Erik on X: https://x.com/eriktorenbergStay Updated:If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://x.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

In this episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down with Dan Snow, Berkeley PhD and Harvard Business School professor turned BYU educator; for a thoughtful conversation on identity, reinvention, and choosing a life of deep purpose over conventional success.Dan shares his journey from the factory floors of Ford to the lecture halls of Harvard, and why he ultimately walked away from the elite academic path to teach and mentor at BYU. With rare humility and clarity, he unpacks the quiet courage it takes to start over, the challenges of being “the outsider,” and what it means to build a life that actually aligns with your values.They explore leadership, legacy, and how the most meaningful growth often comes from embracing discomfort.

Harvard has announced that it is launching a fresh review of its connections to Epstein after new emails and documents were released showing long -standing ties between Epstein and former Harvard president Lawrence Summers. The released materials show that Summers maintained communications with Epstein well after Epstein's 2008 conviction for solicitation of prostitution of a minor, including advice-seeking messages and email exchanges in 2017-2019. The university's statement says the review will look into “information concerning individuals at Harvard included in the newly released Epstein documents to evaluate what actions may be warranted.”This comes on the heels of a previous investigation (completed circa 2020) which found that Epstein had made sizeable donations to Harvard (about $9 million between 1998–2008) and had access to Harvard campus facilities — including an office — even after his conviction. The new probe focuses not only on Summers but also on other Harvard affiliates named in the documents (including Summers's wife, Harvard professor Elisa New). The scandal is reopening questions about how institutions handled Epstein's donations, access and post-conviction privileges.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Harvard historian Rebecca Lemov has spent decades uncovering the uncomfortable truth about free will, manipulation, and the invisible forces that shape human behavior, from Cold War brainwashing experiments to the AI companions whispering in our ears today. In this eye-opening conversation, Rebecca reveals how modern technology has turned us all into subjects of the largest behavioral experiment in human history. She discusses the shocking rise of AI-induced delusion, why Silicon Valley executives send their kids to tech-free schools, and the personal breaking point that taught her no one is immune to influence. This isn't just academic theory. Rebecca shares her own story of escaping a controlling relationship and addiction, the 10-day meditation retreat that felt like torture, and why she believes the nightmare of mass manipulation "isn't in the future, it's already here." But she also offers hope: practical strategies for protecting your mind, raising resilient children, and reclaiming the freedom we thought we had. ABOUT THE GUEST Rebecca Lemov is a historian of science at Harvard University and author of The Instability of Truth: How Brainwashing Shaped America. Her research explores the hidden history of behavioral control, from Cold War experiments to modern algorithmic manipulation. She's been featured on Joe Rogan and numerous podcasts examining the intersection of technology, psychology, and human autonomy.

As we recorded this episode, the Senate agreed to unanimous consent, sending the House passed legislation to release all of the Epstein files to President Trump’s desk for signature. Trump has already said he will sign the bill into law, as we saw Epstein victims rally on Capitol Hill today to urge lawmakers for full transparency. Amy and T.J. discuss the one lawmaker who voted against the bill - a congressman from Louisiana - and the Harvard professor who has expressed being “ashamed” at his level of friendship with Epstein in the latest round of emails released to the public.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if creativity isn't a gift possessed by a few—but a skill every leader already has? In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli sits down with Tessa Forshaw and Rich Braden, co-authors of Innovation-ish: How Anyone Can Create Breakthrough Solutions to Real Problems in the Real World. Drawing from their work at Stanford and Harvard, they share how innovation is less about genius and more about discipline, collaboration, and the willingness to see differently.Forshaw and Braden dismantle the myth of the lone genius, showing how the best ideas rarely come from one person's brilliance but from diverse teams willing to challenge each other's assumptions. They unpack the concept of “cognitive caution”—that natural human tendency to play it safe—and explain how leaders can create the psychological conditions that make creativity thrive.The conversation explores why traditional brainstorming often fails, why “innovation theater” gives the illusion of progress without impact, and what leaders can do to make innovation an everyday practice rather than a one-off event. From developing the muscles of divergent and convergent thinking to understanding how fear, hierarchy, and bias stifle creative problem-solving, this dialogue offers a roadmap for embedding innovation deeply into leadership and culture.Braden and Forshaw also discuss the responsibility that comes with innovation—how thoughtful leaders must consider both the intended and unintended consequences of new ideas. And in a world reshaped by AI, they offer a refreshing reminder: technology can amplify human creativity, but it cannot replace the curiosity, humility, and judgment at the heart of real leadership.This episode is a must-listen for CEOs and senior leaders who want to foster innovation that's not performative, but practical—and who see creativity not as a department, but as a leadership imperative.Actionable TakeawaysYou'll learn why everyone—not just “creative types”—is capable of breakthrough thinking, and how leaders can help teams rediscover that confidence.Hear how to replace “innovation theater” with daily practices that embed creativity into decision-making and culture.Discover the concept of cognitive caution—and how to reduce the fear and hesitation that quietly shut down new ideas in organizations.Explore the difference between divergent, convergent, and executive thinking—and how each contributes to effective innovation.Find out why the myth of the lone genius hurts innovation, and what truly collaborative creativity looks like inside high-performing teams.Learn how to ask better questions—the kind that expand perspective, reveal blind spots, and lead to better solutions.Hear why humility may be a leader's most powerful innovation skill, enabling curiosity and openness across the organization.Understand why short-term performance pressures often block creative problem-solving—and what leaders can do to make space for exploration.Connect with Tessa Forshaw and Rich BradenInnovationish Website Innovationish Substack Tessa Forshaw LinkedIn Rich Braden LinkedIn Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

Today, we're thinking about Marcyliena Morgan, a keeper extraordinaire, a linguistic anthropologist who founded and championed the Hip Hop Archive at Harvard. Marcyliena Hazel Morgan was born in Chicago, May 8, 1950 and passed away September 28, 2025. We were fortunate to interview her in 2018 as part of the opening story in our NPR series The Keepers, about activist archivists, rogue librarians, curators, collectors and historians. Keepers of the culture and the cultures and collections they keep. Guardians of history large and small, protectors of the free flow of information and ideas. Individuals who take it upon themselves to preserve some part of our cultural heritage. Marcyliena Morgan was all that and more. Our story delves into the the founding of the Hip Hop Archive and Research Institute at Harvard by Dr. Morgan and Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. to “facilitate and encourage the pursuit of knowledge, art, culture, scholarship and responsible leadership through Hiphop.”You'll hear from Professor Morgan, Professor Gates, Nas, Patrick Douthit aka 9th Wonder, an array of Harvard archivists and students studying at the archive as well as the records, music and voices being preserved there. We've also included more of our original interview with Dr. Morgan. The Kitchen Sisters Present is produced by The Kitchen Sisters (Davia Nelson & Nikki Silva) with Nathan Dalton and Brandi Howell. We're part of the Radiotopia Network from PRX. 

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, we begin with comparing dating habits from today's non-traditional online hookups to the more conventional methods that were much more respectful and thus meaningful. Also, women are much more likely to defend political values when dating, Ford Corporation has thousands of openings for critical positions, former Harvard president Larry Summers steps back from public roles after House release of Epstein correspondence and audio from Stephen A. Smith on opening the files.
