The author of the world's best-selling book on negotiation draws on his nearly fifty years of experience and knowledge grappling with the world's toughest conflicts to offer a way out of the seemingly impossible problems of our time. Conflict is increasing everywhere, threatening everything we hold dear—from our families to our democracy, from our workplaces to our world. In nearly every area of society, we are fighting more and collaborating less, especially over crucial problems that demand solutions. With this groundbreaking book, bestselling author and international negotiator William Ury shares a new “path to possible”—time-tested practices that will help listeners unlock their power to constructively engage and transform conflict. Part memoir, part manual, part manifesto, Possible: How We Survive (and Thrive) in an Age of Conflict (Harper Business, 2024) offers stories and sage advice from Ury's nearly 50 years of experience on the front lines of some of the world's toughest conflicts. One of the world's top experts in the field, Ury has worked on conflicts ranging from boardroom battles to labor strikes, from the US partisan divide to family feuds, from wars in the Middle East, Colombia and Ukraine to helping the US and USSR avoid nuclear disaster. Now, in Possible, he helps us tackle the seemingly intransigent problems facing us. In Possible, Ury argues conflict is natural. In fact, we need more conflict, not less—if we are to grow, change, evolve and solve our problems creatively. While we may not be able to end conflict, we can transform it—unleashing new, unexpected possibilities. Successfully tested at Harvard University with almost a thousand participants from business, government, academia, and the nonprofit sector, Ury's “Path to Possible” proved so valuable that Harvard's Program on Negotiation selected it as its inaugural online daylong in April 2022. Possible introduces Ury's methods and makes them available for everyone. Combining accessible frameworks and powerful storytelling and offering dozens of examples, it is an essential guide for anyone looking to break through the toughest conflicts—in their workplace, family, community or the world.

“Predictions are hard,” Yogi Berra once quipped, “especially about the future”. Yes they are. But in today's AI boom/bubble, how exactly can we predict the future? According to Silicon Valley venture capitalist Aman Verjee, access to the future lies in the past. In his new book, A Brief History of Financial Bubbles, Verjee looks at history - particularly the 17th century Dutch tulip mania and the railway mania of 19th century England - to make sense of today's tech economics. So what does history teach us about the current AI exuberance: boom or bubble? The Stanford and Harvard-educated Verjee, a member of the PayPal Mafia who wrote the company's first business plan with Peter Thiel, and who now runs his own venture fund, brings both historical perspective and insider experience to this multi-trillion-dollar question. Today's market is overheated, the VC warns, but it's more nuanced than 1999. The MAG-7 companies are genuinely profitable, unlike the dotcom darlings. Nvidia isn't Cisco. Yet “lazy circularity” in AI deal-making and pre-seed valuations hitting $50 million suggests traditional symptoms of irrational exuberance are returning. Even Yogi Berra might predict that. * Every bubble has believers who insist “this time is different” - and sometimes they're right. Verjee argues that the 1999 dotcom bubble actually created lasting value through companies like Amazon, PayPal, and the infrastructure that powered the next two decades of growth. But the concurrent telecom bubble destroyed far more wealth through outright fraud at companies like Enron and WorldCom.* Bubbles always occur in the world's richest country during periods of unchallenged hegemony. Britain dominated globally during its 1840s railway mania. America was the sole superpower during the dotcom boom. Today's AI frenzy coincides with American technological dominance - but also with a genuine rival in China, making this bubble fundamentally different from its predecessors.* The current market shows dangerous signs but isn't 1999. Unlike the dotcom era when 99% of fiber optic cable laid was “dark” (unused), Nvidia could double GPU production and still sell every chip. The MAG-7 trade at 27-29 times earnings versus the S&P 500's 70x multiple in 2000. Real profitability matters - but $50 million pre-seed valuations and circular revenue deals between AI companies echo familiar patterns of excess.* Government intervention in markets rarely ends well. Verjee warns against America adopting an industrial policy of “picking winners” - pointing to Japan's 1980s bubble as a cautionary tale. Thirty-five years after its collapse, Japan's GDP per capita remains unchanged. OpenAI is not too big to fail, and shouldn't be treated as such.* Immigration fuels American innovation - full stop. When anti-H1B voices argue for restricting skilled immigration, Verjee points to the counter-evidence: Elon Musk, Sergey Brin, Sundar Pichai, Satya Nadella, Max Levchin, and himself - all H1B visa holders who created millions of American jobs and trillions in shareholder value. Closing that pipeline would be economically suicidal.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

The Trump administration is asking universities to sign an agreement in exchange for preferential access to federal funding. On this week's On the Media, how the arrangement would radically alter the relationship between the government and higher education. Plus, how university leaders are navigating the fight over academic freedom.[00:00] Universities were not always so vulnerable to the whims of politics. The whole system of taxpayer-funded, university-led scientific research came about at the end of World War II, and was the brainchild of a man named Vannevar Bush. He felt the partnership of government and academics had to be equal in order to yield breakthroughs. Today, the Trump administration is proposing a new “compact” that would make the President the dominant partner. We speak with one of the authors of the Trump compact, May Mailman.

Ellevate Podcast: Conversations With Women Changing the Face of Business
In this thought-provoking episode of the Ellevate Podcast, host Ally McDonald sits down with leadership expert, Harvard instructor, and MYLO Center founder Margaret C. Andrews for an honest, insightful conversation about what it truly means to lead. Drawing from her decades of research, teaching, and executive experience, Margaret shares the deeply personal origin story behind her new book, Managing Yourself to Lead Others—a moment when blunt feedback forced her to confront her own blind spots and reshape the way she showed up as a leader.Together, Ally and Margaret explore the often-overlooked foundation of great leadership: understanding and managing yourself. They discuss why so many high performers struggle with self-awareness, how intention and behavior can clash, and why emotions—far from being obstacles—are critical data that inform our decisions and our impact on others. Through compelling examples from Margaret's work with leaders around the world, they unpack the patterns, challenges, and transformative shifts that help people bridge the gap between who they think they are and how others experience them.This episode is rich with reflection, psychology, and practical wisdom. Whether you're an emerging leader or a seasoned executive, Margaret's insights will challenge you to pause, look inward, and consider how mastering yourself is the key to elevating not just your work—but everyone around you.Manage Yourself to Lead Others: Why Great Leadership Begins with Self-Understanding By Margaret Andrews.

The newly surfaced emails between Larry Summers and Jeffrey Epstein make one thing brutally clear: whatever polite public distance people pretended existed between them after Epstein's 2008 arrest simply didn't exist behind the scenes. The tone of the correspondence isn't stiff, cautious, or arm's-length; it's friendly, familiar, and deeply transactional. Summers wasn't treating Epstein like a radioactive embarrassment—he was treating him like a wealthy fixer whose money, network, and influence still had value. Even after Epstein became a convicted sex offender, the emails show Summers casually asking for financial introductions, discussing fundraising, and maintaining the same easy rapport they shared before Epstein's downfall. The subtext isn't subtle: Summers still saw Epstein as a useful man to know.Even more telling is how seamlessly that relationship continued as if nothing catastrophic had happened at all. Epstein had just served jail time for exploiting minors, and yet Summers—former Treasury Secretary, former Harvard president, global power broker—was corresponding with him like they were still in the same elite club, untouched by the moral contamination that should've come with associating with a convicted predator. These exchanges reveal a mutual comfort that undermines every attempt to rewrite history or pretend that these ties were incidental. Summers kept going back to Epstein because Epstein was the kind of man powerful people liked having in their orbit: rich, connected, pliable, discreet, and willing to do what “respectable” institutions couldn't. The emails don't just expose a relationship—they expose the lie that anyone in that circle truly cut ties when the truth about Epstein finally came out.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Clinton Treasury chief kept in touch with Jeffrey Epstein years after conviction | Fox News
Jeffrey Epstein's connections to the world of science were not accidental — they were strategic. He courted some of the most brilliant minds at Harvard, MIT, and other elite institutions, presenting himself as a patron of innovation and philanthropy. Epstein used his fortune to endow programs, fund research, and host lavish dinners that mixed Nobel laureates with billionaires. Many of these “men with the pocket protectors” — physicists, geneticists, and computer scientists — were enticed by his charm and his promise of funding. They justified their proximity to him as a necessary evil for the sake of their research, conveniently ignoring the whispers about his criminal past. Even after his 2008 conviction, Epstein's Rolodex of scientists remained active, his money still circulating through institutions that should have known better.In truth, Epstein exploited the intellectual vanity of academia. He loved surrounding himself with geniuses because it elevated his own image — transforming a convicted sex offender into a “visionary benefactor.” Meanwhile, many of those scientists turned a blind eye, preferring the security of his checks to the discomfort of their conscience. Harvard, for instance, accepted millions from Epstein even after his conviction, and prominent figures like Martin Nowak and George Church maintained ties long past the point of plausible ignorance. The relationship was mutually parasitic: Epstein gained legitimacy and access to powerful networks, while the scientists gained funding and proximity to his wealth. It was the perfect marriage of intellect and moral cowardice, wrapped in the language of progress.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 13, 2025. 0:30 We break down the Department of Justice’s stunning lawsuit against the state of California over Proposition 50, a ballot initiative that rewrote the state’s congressional maps with blatant, unapologetic racial gerrymandering. With the balance of power in Congress potentially shifting by as many as nine seats, this isn’t just about California. It’s about the future of the Voting Rights Act, the limits of racial considerations in mapmaking, and whether the Constitution still draws the lines… or the politicians do. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. President Trump signed a bill ending the federal Government shutdown. Democrat Katie Wilson defeated incumbent Democrat Bruce Harrell to become the next mayor of Seattle. The former Chief of Staff for California Governor Gavin Newsom was just arrested as part of a federal corruption investigation. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 California is back in the headlines — and not for anything resembling sanity. We break down the explosive revelation that the California DMV handed out more than 17,000 commercial trucking licenses to foreign nationals, including illegal aliens with no work permits, no legal status, and in many cases, no ability to read or speak English. What should be a safety-first agency has been weaponized into a sanctuary institution, prioritizing politics over public safety. We dive into how this reckless licensing spree undermines trained American truckers, destabilizes one of the most regulated industries in the nation, and endangers everyone on the road. 16:00 We ask American Mamas — Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson — what they think about the viral confrontation between singer Tish Hyman and California congressional candidate Scott Weiner. After a fully intact biological male entered the women’s locker room at her San Francisco gym, Hyman — a Black lesbian and longtime Democrat voter — confronted Wiener directly, demanding to know whether he would actually protect women’s safety. The Mamas break down the moment Hyman stood her ground against a hostile crowd, challenged the narrative that “trans women are women,” and exposed the disturbing criminal history of the man at the center of the controversy. What emerges is a rare, powerful pushback from inside the Democratic base itself — and a sign that even in San Francisco, the backlash to radical gender policies may be beginning. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 22:30 We break down the stunning admission from Democratic Senators John Hickenlooper and Jack Reed, who now claim the longest government shutdown in American history was — unbelievably — “worth it.” While millions of Americans went without paychecks, vital services stalled, and military families were left in limbo, these senators are patting themselves on the back as if the suffering was an acceptable price for partisan leverage. We dig into what the shutdown was really about: not national security, not fiscal responsibility, but a political standoff over illegal-alien healthcare and a $1.5 trillion progressive wish list. 27:00 We Dig Deep into a rare moment of clarity from the U.S. Supreme Court — courtesy of Justice Neil Gorsuch. While promoting his upcoming children’s book, Heroes of 1776, Gorsuch sat down with Fox & Friends’ Lawrence Jones to discuss an urgent issue: America’s growing civic illiteracy. When asked about the consequences of removing foundational stories from our classrooms, Gorsuch didn’t hesitate. The greatest threat to America, he warned, is America itself — a population that no longer knows its own history. We unpack his sobering reminder that most Americans can’t pass the same citizenship test required of legal immigrants, and how that civic ignorance is fueling everything from political polarization to the rise of socialism in major cities. If we don’t teach people why this nation was founded — the principles of natural rights, limited government, and personal liberty — then someone else will fill that void, and not with the truth. 32:00 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:00 We dive into the newest revelations from the Epstein document dump—and what the media isn’t telling you. While headlines focus on misdirection and selectively edited claims, the real story is hiding in plain sight: high-profile journalists and a former New York Times reporter were privately begging Jeffrey Epstein for dirt on Donald Trump… and came up empty. We break down who was involved, what the emails actually show, and why the media’s narrative conveniently ignores the exculpatory details. 35:00 Plus, Barry Brownstein’s Daily Economy article, “The Economics of Gratitude" is a real Bright Spot. We unpack a powerful idea from the article, that gratitude— not entitlement— is the foundation of prosperity. Drawing on insights from 19th-century economist Frédéric Bastiat, we reflect on how modern life is built on the contributions of millions of people we’ll never meet—and how easy it is to lose sight of that. From the smartphones in our pockets to the computers on our desks, we rely every day on technology that no single person could ever build alone. Yet in a culture of comfort and convenience, gratitude evaporates quickly. We dig into how cultivating gratitude can reshape your worldview, your politics, and your daily life, and why remembering what you already have may be the most radical—and liberating—act you can take. 39:30 Harvard's grading scale has basically become a joke. They call it “grade inflation,” but let’s be honest—it’s a participation-trophy festival. And now there’s a rumor that Harvard might finally do something about it. Perhaps Harvard has realized that standards really do matter and they're saying, "Whoa." 41:30 And we finish off with some Words of Wisdom about gratitude.

Live from Morgan Stanley's European Tech, Media and Telecom Conference in Barcelona, our roundtable of analysts discusses tech disruptions and datacenter growth, and how Europe factors in.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Paul Walsh: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Paul Walsh, Morgan Stanley's European Head of Research Product. Today we return to my conversation with Adam Wood. Head of European Technology and Payments, Emmet Kelly, Head of European Telco and Data Centers, and Lee Simpson, Head of European Technology. We were live on stage at Morgan Stanley's 25th TMT Europe conference. We had so much to discuss around the themes of AI enablers, semiconductors, and telcos. So, we are back with a concluding episode on tech disruption and data center investments. It's Thursday the 13th of November at 8am in Barcelona. After speaking with the panel about the U.S. being overweight AI enablers, and the pockets of opportunity in Europe, I wanted to ask them about AI disruption, which has been a key theme here in Europe. I started by asking Adam how he was thinking about this theme. Adam Wood: It's fascinating to see this year how we've gone in most of those sectors to how positive can GenAI be for these companies? How well are they going to monetize the opportunities? How much are they going to take advantage internally to take their own margins up? To flipping in the second half of the year, mainly to, how disruptive are they going to be? And how on earth are they going to fend off these challenges? Paul Walsh: And I think that speaks to the extent to which, as a theme, this has really, you know, built momentum. Adam Wood: Absolutely. And I mean, look, I think the first point, you know, that you made is absolutely correct – that it's very difficult to disprove this. It's going to take time for that to happen. It's impossible to do in the short term. I think the other issue is that what we've seen is – if we look at the revenues of some of the companies, you know, and huge investments going in there. And investors can clearly see the benefit of GenAI. And so investors are right to ask the question, well, where's the revenue for these businesses? You know, where are we seeing it in info services or in IT services, or in enterprise software. And the reality is today, you know, we're not seeing it. And it's hard for analysts to point to evidence that – well, no, here's the revenue base, here's the benefit that's coming through. And so, investors naturally flip to, well, if there's no benefit, then surely, we should focus on the risk. So, I think we totally understand, you know, why people are focused on the negative side of things today. I think there are differences between the sub-sectors. I mean, I think if we look, you know, at IT services, first of all, from an investor point of view, I think that's been pretty well placed in the losers' buckets and people are most concerned about that sub-sector… Paul Walsh: Something you and the global team have written a lot about. Adam Wood: Yeah, we've written about, you know, the risk of disruption in that space, the need for those companies to invest, and then the challenges they face. But I mean, if we just keep it very, very simplistic. If Gen AI is a technology that, you know, displaces labor to any extent – companies that have played labor arbitrage and provide labor for the last 20 - 25 years, you know, they're going to have to make changes to their business model. So, I think that's understandable. And they're going to have to demonstrate how they can change and invest and produce a business model that addresses those concerns. I'd probably put info services in the middle. But the challenge in that space is you have real identifiable companies that have emerged, that have a revenue base and that are challenging a subset of the products of those businesses. So again, it's perfectly understandable that investors would worry. In that context, it's not a potential threat on the horizon. It's a real threat that exists today against certainly their businesses. I think software is probably the most interesting. I'd put it in the kind of final bucket where I actually believe… Well, I think first of all, we certainly wouldn't take the view that there's no risk of disruption and things aren't going to change. Clearly that is going to be the case. I think what we'd want to do though is we'd want to continue to use frameworks that we've used historically to think about how software companies differentiate themselves, what the barriers to entry are. We don't think we need to throw all of those things away just because we have GenAI, this new set of capabilities. And I think investors will come back most easily to that space. Paul Walsh: Emett, you talked a little bit there before about the fact that you haven't seen a huge amount of progress or additional insight from the telco space around AI; how AI is diffusing across the space. Do you get any discussions around disruption as it relates to telco space? Emmet Kelly: Very, very little. I think the biggest threat that telcos do see is – it is from the hyperscalers. So, if I look at and separate the B2C market out from the B2B, the telcos are still extremely dominant in the B2C space, clearly. But on the B2B space, the hyperscalers have come in on the cloud side, and if you look at their market share, they're very, very dominant in cloud – certainly from a wholesale perspective. So, if you look at the cloud market shares of the big three hyperscalers in Europe, this number is courtesy of my colleague George Webb. He said it's roughly 85 percent; that's how much they have of the cloud space today. The telcos, what they're doing is they're actually reselling the hyperscale service under the telco brand name. But we don't see much really in terms of the pure kind of AI disruption, but there are concerns definitely within the telco space that the hyperscalers might try and move from the B2B space into the B2C space at some stage. And whether it's through virtual networks, cloudified networks, to try and get into the B2C space that way. Paul Walsh: Understood. And Lee maybe less about disruption, but certainly adoption, some insights from your side around adoption across the tech hardware space? Lee Simpson: Sure. I think, you know, it's always seen that are enabling the AI move, but, but there is adoption inside semis companies as well, and I think I'd point to design flow. So, if you look at the design guys, they're embracing the agentic system thing really quickly and they're putting forward this capability of an agent engineer, so like a digital engineer. And it – I guess we've got to get this right. It is going to enable a faster time to market for the design flow on a chip. So, if you have that design flow time, that time to market. So, you're creating double the value there for the client. Do you share that 50-50 with them? So, the challenge is going to be exactly as Adam was saying, how do you monetize this stuff? So, this is kind of the struggle that we're seeing in adoption. Paul Walsh: And Emmett, let's move to you on data centers. I mean, there are just some incredible numbers that we've seen emerging, as it relates to the hyperscaler investment that we're seeing in building out the infrastructure. I know data centers is something that you have focused tremendously on in your research, bringing our global perspectives together. Obviously, Europe sits within that. And there is a market here in Europe that might be more challenged. But I'm interested to understand how you're thinking about framing the whole data center story? Implications for Europe. Do European companies feed off some of that U.S. hyperscaler CapEx? How should we be thinking about that through the European lens? Emmet Kelly: Yeah, absolutely. So, big question, Paul. What… Paul Walsh: We've got a few minutes! Emmet Kelly: We've got a few minutes. What I would say is there was a great paper that came out from Harvard just two weeks ago, and they were looking at the scale of data center investments in the United States. And clearly the U.S. economy is ticking along very, very nicely at the moment. But this Harvard paper concluded that if you take out data center investments, U.S. economic growth today is actually zero. Paul Walsh: Wow. Emmet Kelly: That is how big the data center investments are. And what we've said in our research very clearly is if you want to build a megawatt of data center capacity that's going to cost you roughly $35 million today. Let's put that number out there. 35 million. Roughly, I'd say 25… Well, 20 to 25 million of that goes into the chips. But what's really interesting is the other remaining $10 million per megawatt, and I like to call that the picks and shovels of data centers; and I'm very convinced there is no bubble in that area whatsoever.So, what's in that area? Firstly, the first building block of a data center is finding a powered land bank. And this is a big thing that private equity is doing at the moment. So, find some real estate that's close to a mass population that's got a good fiber connection. Probably needs a little bit of water, but most importantly needs some power. And the demand for that is still infinite at the moment. Then beyond that, you've got the construction angle and there's a very big shortage of labor today to build the shells of these data centers. Then the third layer is the likes of capital goods, and there are serious supply bottlenecks there as well.And I could go on and on, but roughly that first $10 million, there's no bubble there. I'm very, very sure of that. Paul Walsh: And we conducted some extensive survey work recently as part of your analysis into the global data center market. You've sort of touched on a few of the gating factors that the industry has to contend with. That survey work was done on the operators and the supply chain, as it relates to data center build out. What were the key conclusions from that? Emmet Kelly: Well, the key conclusion was there is a shortage of power for these data centers, and… Paul Walsh: Which I think… Which is a sort of known-known, to some extent. Emmet Kelly: it is a known-known, but it's not just about the availability of power, it's the availability of green power. And it's also the price of power is a very big factor as well because energy is roughly 40 to 45 percent of the operating cost of running a data center. So, it's very, very important. And of course, that's another area where Europe doesn't screen very well.I was looking at statistics just last week on the countries that have got the highest power prices in the world. And unsurprisingly, it came out as UK, Ireland, Germany, and that's three of our big five data center markets. But when I looked at our data center stats at the beginning of the year, to put a bit of context into where we are…Paul Walsh: In Europe… Emmet Kelly: In Europe versus the rest. So, at the end of [20]24, the U.S. data center market had 35 gigawatts of data center capacity. But that grew last year at a clip of 30 percent. China had a data center bank of roughly 22 gigawatts, but that had grown at a rate of just 10 percent. And that was because of the chip issue. And then Europe has capacity, or had capacity at the end of last year, roughly 7 to 8 gigawatts, and that had grown at a rate of 10 percent. Now, the reason for that is because the three big data center markets in Europe are called FLAP-D. So, it's Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin. We had to put an acronym on it. So, Flap-D. Good news. I'm sitting with the tech guys. They've got even more acronyms than I do, in their sector, so well done them. Lee Simpson: Nothing beats FLAP-D. Paul Walsh: Yes. Emmet Kelly: It's quite an achievement. But what is interesting is three of the big five markets in Europe are constrained. So, Frankfurt, post the Ukraine conflict. Ireland, because in Ireland, an incredible statistic is data centers are using 25 percent of the Irish power grid. Compared to a global average of 3 percent.Now I'm from Dublin, and data centers are running into conflict with industry, with housing estates. Data centers are using 45 percent of the Dublin grid, 45. So, there's a moratorium in building data centers there. And then Amsterdam has the classic semi moratorium space because it's a small country with a very high population. So, three of our five markets are constrained in Europe. What is interesting is it started with the former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. The UK has made great strides at attracting data center money and AI capital into the UK and the current Prime Minister continues to do that. So, the UK has definitely gone; moved from the middle lane into the fast lane. And then Macron in France. He hosted an AI summit back in February and he attracted over a 100 billion euros of AI and data center commitments. Paul Walsh: And I think if we added up, as per the research that we published a few months ago, Europe's announced over 350 billion euros, in proposed investments around AI. Emmet Kelly: Yeah, absolutely. It's a good stat. Now where people can get a little bit cynical is they can say a couple of things. Firstly, it's now over a year since the Mario Draghi report came out. And what's changed since? Absolutely nothing, unfortunately. And secondly, when I look at powering AI, I like to compare Europe to what's happening in the United States. I mean, the U.S. is giving access to nuclear power to AI. It started with the three Mile Island… Paul Walsh: Yeah. The nuclear renaissance is… Emmet Kelly: Nuclear Renaissance is absolutely huge. Now, what's underappreciated is actually Europe has got a massive nuclear power bank. It's right up there. But unfortunately, we're decommissioning some of our nuclear power around Europe, so we're going the wrong way from that perspective. Whereas President Trump is opening up the nuclear power to AI tech companies and data centers. Then over in the States we also have gas and turbines. That's a very, very big growth area and we're not quite on top of that here in Europe. So, looking at this year, I have a feeling that the Americans will probably increase their data center capacity somewhere between – it's incredible – somewhere between 35 and 50 percent. And I think in Europe we're probably looking at something like 10 percent again. Paul Walsh: Okay. Understood. Emmet Kelly: So, we're growing in Europe, but we're way, way behind as a starting point. And it feels like the others are pulling away. The other big change I'd highlight is the Chinese are really going to accelerate their data center growth this year as well. They've got their act together and you'll see them heading probably towards 30 gigs of capacity by the end of next year. Paul Walsh: Alright, we're out of time. The TMT Edge is alive and kicking in Europe. I want to thank Emmett, Lee and Adam for their time and I just want to wish everybody a great day today. Thank you.(Applause) That was my conversation with Adam, Emmett and Lee. Many thanks again to them.

The Psychology of Leadership: Turn Stress into Peak Performance, with Sebastien Page, a $500 billion fund manager How do top leaders and athletes use stress to boost performance instead of burning out? Most high-achieving leaders believe they have to eliminate stress to perform their best—but sports psychology reveals the opposite is true. The real problem isn't stress itself; it's operating too close to the edge without understanding your optimal performance zone, leading to burnout, lost creativity, and goal-induced blindness. In this episode of Impact with Ease, Blake talks with Sebastien Page, Chief Investment Officer at T. Rowe Price and author of The Psychology of Leadership, about the neuroscience and psychology of peak performance. Sebastien shares insights from 25 years as a leader in high-pressure finance, revealing how research from elite athletes like Simone Biles and Roger Federer can transform how you lead. You'll learn why zero stress isn't the goal, how to turn stress into energy, and the framework for sustainable success that helps you thrive at work while protecting what matters most in life.

In this week's episode, host Ryan Coonerty speaks with Harris County, TX, County Commissioner Lesley Briones, who explains her role representing the third-largest county in the country with a population larger than 26 U.S. States and 34 cities. Ryan and Briones discuss her journey as a Harvard and Yale Law School graduate who became a public school teacher and then a judge, and how her parents instilled in her the belief that she should always help others. Briones talks about navigating the chaos left by the Trump administration—including Governor Abbott's redistricting plan —how faith continues to ground her work, and how growing up as a daughter of teachers and a proud Latina on the Texas–Mexico border has given her resilience. Tune in to learn why Commissioner Briones believes Texas can become a swing state (spoiler: it's so close). IN THIS EPISODE: • [01:03] Commissioner Briones' background and entry into public service. • [02:16] The role of a County Commissioner and what that means in Harris. • [04:07] Federal challenges that Harris County faces under the Trump administration. • [10:30] Attempts to work collaboratively in the face of troubling bills. • [13:13] Staying hopeful and engaged for the generation to come. • [17:06] Sentiment towards the current administration in Harris County. • [18:51] How Commissioner Briones' background informs her work in local government. • [22:55] Her path to public service in 2019 and how it differs from working as a judge. • [30:15] Embracing faith and inclusivity as a Democratic leader.
Send us a textWhat if one of the most devastating, life-altering experiences isn't visible from the outside but silently shatters someone's identity, relationships, and sense of control?As a Harvard-trained fertility specialist, Gabriela Rosa, has spent over 20 years working with individuals and couples whose lives were flipped upside down by the heartbreak of not being able to conceive. She's walked beside thousands through the silent trauma of repeated loss, the mental health fallout of failed attempts, the breakdown of marriages, and the overwhelming isolation that comes when your body doesn't do what it's “supposed to.”The pain is real - even though the world often dismisses it. And the recovery? It requires an entirely new way of relating to your body, your dreams, and your definition of self-worth.Gabriela comes with the collective stories of the people she's helped through their darkest, most vulnerable moments. She believes that behind every fertility challenge is a human experience of trauma, and she has powerful insight into what healing looks like when life doesn't go as planned.

Under the leadership of CEO Hiten Sonpal, the company has developed a groundbreaking alternative to hydraulics called Beltdraulics, inspired by the efficiency of human muscles. This innovative technology replaces traditional hydraulics, which rely on fluids and compression, with electric systems that use belts to mimic the tension in muscle fibers.Hiten explained, “Hydraulics required pumps, reservoirs, and hoses. They were inefficient and leaked everywhere. So, [the founders of RISE Robotics] came up with an alternative technology that we now call Beltdraulics.” Beltdraulics offers remarkable advantages, being three times faster, three times more efficient, and three times more durable than traditional hydraulic systems.The company's work is more than just an engineering feat—it's a green revolution. RISE Robotics' technology is already helping industries like oil and gas reduce emissions and improve efficiency. For example, their equipment can cut battery size requirements in half, reducing costs and infrastructure demands while doubling productivity. “If there's anything we can do to clean up [polluting industries], it would be fantastic from a company mission perspective,” Hiten said.RISE Robotics is also making waves with government contracts, including partnerships with the Department of Defense and interest from sectors like maritime, forestry, and mining. The potential applications for their technology are nearly limitless, as hydraulics are used in everything from cranes to farm equipment.As part of its growth strategy, RISE Robotics is raising capital through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder. Hiten emphasized that the campaign offers investors terms similar to those of institutional backers, making this an exciting opportunity for individuals to invest in a clean, green future.RISE Robotics is not just innovating; it's paving the way for a cleaner, more sustainable industrial landscape.tl;dr:Hiten Sonpal introduced how RISE Robotics is replacing hydraulics with clean electric systems.Hiten explained the company's Beltdraulics technology, inspired by muscle fibers, that's faster and more efficient.RISE Robotics is disrupting industries, from oil and gas to defense, while reducing emissions and costs.Hiten shared his superpower: building high-performing teams through diversity, psychological safety, and collaboration.Investors can join RISE Robotics' mission by participating in its Wefunder crowdfunding campaign.How to Develop Building High-Performing Teams As a SuperpowerHiten's superpower lies in his ability to build and lead high-performing teams. He explained, “To have a high-performing team, you need diversity—diversity of experiences, ideas, passions, and interests.” He also emphasized the importance of fostering “a culture of healthy conflict” where team members feel psychologically safe to voice their ideas and concerns. This environment enables teams to collaborate effectively, expand possibilities, and achieve more than they would individually.One powerful example of Hiten's superpower in action came during his time at iRobot. After a challenging trip to China, one of his team members called him out during a retrospective for not providing enough central coordination. Instead of reacting defensively, Hiten saw this as a success—a reflection of the psychological safety he'd created within the team. This openness allowed the team to improve and ultimately succeed.To develop this superpower, Hiten suggests creating a culture where feedback is welcomed and encouraged, even when it's directed at leadership. He also advises reducing complexity for teams by narrowing focus and cutting scope on projects, enabling them to move forward effectively.By following Hiten's example and advice, you can make building high-performing teams a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileHiten Sonpal (he/him):CEO, RISE® RoboticsAbout RISE® Robotics: RISE Robotics is enabling the electification and automation of heavy machinery using Beltdraulics, it's propreitary fluid-free low-maintenance alternative to hydraulics that is 3x faster, 3x more efficient and 100% digital.

Jeffrey Epstein's connections to the world of science were not accidental — they were strategic. He courted some of the most brilliant minds at Harvard, MIT, and other elite institutions, presenting himself as a patron of innovation and philanthropy. Epstein used his fortune to endow programs, fund research, and host lavish dinners that mixed Nobel laureates with billionaires. Many of these “men with the pocket protectors” — physicists, geneticists, and computer scientists — were enticed by his charm and his promise of funding. They justified their proximity to him as a necessary evil for the sake of their research, conveniently ignoring the whispers about his criminal past. Even after his 2008 conviction, Epstein's Rolodex of scientists remained active, his money still circulating through institutions that should have known better.In truth, Epstein exploited the intellectual vanity of academia. He loved surrounding himself with geniuses because it elevated his own image — transforming a convicted sex offender into a “visionary benefactor.” Meanwhile, many of those scientists turned a blind eye, preferring the security of his checks to the discomfort of their conscience. Harvard, for instance, accepted millions from Epstein even after his conviction, and prominent figures like Martin Nowak and George Church maintained ties long past the point of plausible ignorance. The relationship was mutually parasitic: Epstein gained legitimacy and access to powerful networks, while the scientists gained funding and proximity to his wealth. It was the perfect marriage of intellect and moral cowardice, wrapped in the language of progress.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
The newly surfaced emails between Larry Summers and Jeffrey Epstein make one thing brutally clear: whatever polite public distance people pretended existed between them after Epstein's 2008 arrest simply didn't exist behind the scenes. The tone of the correspondence isn't stiff, cautious, or arm's-length; it's friendly, familiar, and deeply transactional. Summers wasn't treating Epstein like a radioactive embarrassment—he was treating him like a wealthy fixer whose money, network, and influence still had value. Even after Epstein became a convicted sex offender, the emails show Summers casually asking for financial introductions, discussing fundraising, and maintaining the same easy rapport they shared before Epstein's downfall. The subtext isn't subtle: Summers still saw Epstein as a useful man to know.Even more telling is how seamlessly that relationship continued as if nothing catastrophic had happened at all. Epstein had just served jail time for exploiting minors, and yet Summers—former Treasury Secretary, former Harvard president, global power broker—was corresponding with him like they were still in the same elite club, untouched by the moral contamination that should've come with associating with a convicted predator. These exchanges reveal a mutual comfort that undermines every attempt to rewrite history or pretend that these ties were incidental. Summers kept going back to Epstein because Epstein was the kind of man powerful people liked having in their orbit: rich, connected, pliable, discreet, and willing to do what “respectable” institutions couldn't. The emails don't just expose a relationship—they expose the lie that anyone in that circle truly cut ties when the truth about Epstein finally came out.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Clinton Treasury chief kept in touch with Jeffrey Epstein years after conviction | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageHeadlines can heat the blood; evidence steadies the mind. We step back from election drama to explore Thomas Sowell's lifetime of clear thinking on prices, incentives, culture, and the hard truth that there are no solutions—only trade-offs. From a hardscrabble childhood and a GED to Harvard, Chicago, and the Hoover Institution, Sowell's journey shapes a method: test claims against outcomes, not intentions. That approach leads us into the politics of “affordable” promises, why price signals matter, and how well-meaning policies can shrink the very prosperity they aim to expand.We dig into Sowell's early work at the Department of Labor and his influential findings on minimum wage effects for low-skilled workers, especially black teenagers. We read from The Thomas Sowell Reader to unpack the affordability fallacy and trace the historical costs of price controls that produced shortages and hunger. Then we widen the lens: the welfare state's incentive problem, the constrained versus unconstrained visions from A Conflict of Visions, and what Hayek's knowledge problem tells us about why markets outperform central planning by discovering information rather than pretending to possess it.Culture, too, plays a pivotal role. We discuss patterns highlighted in Black Rednecks and White Liberals, the portability of skills across migrant communities, and the controversy and clarity around affirmative action mismatch and outcomes after California's Prop 209. Through it all, we keep returning to Sowell's style: relentlessly empirical, comparative across countries and centuries, and immune to flattery or faction. If you're ready to think harder, start with Basic Economics, then move to A Conflict of Visions, and let the data change your mind where it should.If this conversation sharpened your thinking, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves big ideas, and leave a review so more curious listeners can find us.Key Points from the Episode:• Sowell's early life, military service, and academic rise • Lessons from labor economics and minimum wage data • The “affordable” fallacy and the role of price signals • Historical failures of price controls and shortages • Trade-offs versus intentions in welfare policy • Constrained and unconstrained visions of human nature • Culture, skills, and group outcomes across countries • Affirmative action mismatch and graduation rates • Hayekian knowledge, markets, and adaptation • Recommended books and a reading path for newcomersOther resources: Want to leave a review?

Dr. Sara Szal, a Harvard and MIT-trained physician, sits down to unpack why women bear the brunt of autoimmune conditions at rates that keep climbing. She introduces the three-legged stool concept that's required for autoimmune disease to take hold, then breaks down why 95% of her patients show cortisol dysregulation long before they're ever diagnosed with anything. What makes this conversation powerful is that Dr. Szal doesn't just study this academically, she's lived it, going through prophylactic mastectomies and converting her own positive anti-nuclear antibody back to normal through targeted interventions. This is a masterclass in understanding the drift from health to disease and exactly what you can do about it before the soldiers come for you.

The late Jeffrey Epstein, AKA Dr. Frankepstein, was among the biotech giants working towards transhuman H+ human engineering and projects connected to Gender Affirmation surgeries that mutilate young people and render them sterile. Within the trove of the notorious Jeffrey Epstein's emails recently acquired by Bloomberg, the infamous pedophile and ruling class socialite proposed to fund an interesting program– Harvard's Personal Genome Project (PGP). Epstein's reason for doing so? To find out if “beauty resides in DNA.” This continues to be an ongoing Frankenstein drama, but with all of the Tech Titans that Trump has embraced. Epstein was only one man among a group of elites seeking to transcend the limits of human life through transhumanist biotechnology.

As humans, we are governed by our core beliefs, many of which we aren't even aware of. There are so many things we believe to be true and so many foundational concepts of our perception we never question. So in this episode, we're going to question them. Ram Dass was an American Spiritual teacher, psychologist, and writer. He gained popularity in the early 1960s by bringing concepts of consciousness and spirituality from India, to America. His book, "Be Here Now" is a spiritual classic selling over two million copies. He began as a professor at Harvard before being fired along with Timothy Leary for experimenting and advocating the use of psychedelics. Now, as a proper Christian, I was fairly unaware of Ram Dass. That is until the winter of 2024 when my Dad, Dan Miller of 48 Days To The Work & Life You Love fame, was diagnosed with cancer. During the six weeks between his diagnosis and ultimate death, he had little interest in any topic other than spirituality. And one of the people he tuned into was Ram Dass. My brother Jared and my Dad would pull up YouTube videos of Ram Dass and I got my first real exposure. My spiritual journey since then has been nothing short of revelatory. And such was my delight when the giant publisher, Harper, contacted me about doing a show on a new book from Ram Dass. What it ended up being was a new book compiled from over 50 talks Ram Dass conducted, compiled and edited by Parvati Markus, who was at the right hand of Ram Dass since the beginning of his spiritual leadership. Parvati is an author of multiple books on spirituality and one of the closest long term friends to Ram Dass that ever existed. In this episode Parvati joins me to talk through key issues Ram discusses such as our human propensity, especially in western cultures, to think in terms of “us” vs “them.” We discuss Judgement vs appreciation. Then attachments and the danger of what we cling to. And we spend a lot of time talking about the dangers of identifying with our roles, which for much of humanity, again, I think exaggerated in our western culture, is all that we know to identify with. The new book, which I've read front to back twice now, is There Is No Other: The Way to Harmony and Wholeness. Connect more at ramdass.org.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1846"You get to Harvard, the rich kids still don't wanna be friends with you. Why not? Because you can't afford to split the table at the club on Friday night." - Vivian TuVivian Tu pulls back the curtain on something most people never talk about: why hard work and even elite credentials aren't enough to build real wealth. She walks through the brutal reality of class barriers with stories from Wall Street, where they literally have different names for people who are technically good at their jobs versus those who were born knowing which fork to use. The Harvard example hits hard because it exposes how even at the peak of merit-based achievement, you can still be locked out of the rooms where wealth actually happens. Not because you're not smart enough or didn't work hard enough, but because you can't afford to split a dinner bill at the club. She talks about proximity to wealth as learning a completely different language, one that teaches you not just who to know but how deals get discussed, how real wealth presents itself, and the tiny cultural signals that separate people who grew up with money from those performing wealth.What makes this conversation valuable is how practical Vivian gets about navigating these realities. She explains how her own wealthy friends opened doors to opportunities she never could have accessed otherwise, from US Open tickets on a bank's dime to connecting with the right business managers and accountants. But more than that, she teaches you how to spot the difference between real wealth and fake rich, breaking down the fundamental truth that people with actual money aren't trying to impress you. This isn't about becoming bitter or cynical about class barriers. It's about understanding the game well enough to play it smarter, recognizing that the path to wealth exists for anyone but looks completely different depending on where you start and who you learn from along the way.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
