Podcast Notes   Episode 482 An Insight Into the Internal w/ Val Hastings Hosts: Brian Miller, PCC Guest: Val Hastings Date: September 11th, 2025 In this episode, Master Certified Coach Val Hastings shares insights from his book Coaching from the Inside and decades of experience training leaders and coaches worldwide. He unpacks what makes internal coaching unique, how it differs from external coaching, and why every leader can and should integrate coaching into their leadership style. Val also introduces guiding principles for internal coaches, highlighting both opportunities and challenges of coaching within an organization. Key Highlights: Val's coaching journey began unexpectedly but led to a lifelong commitment to transforming leaders through an inside-out approach. Only 7% of coaches work as full-time external coaches—93% are internal leaders, supervisors, or professionals integrating coaching into their roles. Internal coaching presents unique challenges: existing relationships, vested interests in outcomes, confidentiality concerns, and “in-the-moment” hallway or workplace coaching. Three powerful principles from Val's Guiding Principles of Internal Coaching: Coaching Initiative: internal coaches can proactively engage with clients in real time. Demonstrating Worth: internal coaches must continually educate and show value within their organizations. Hat Switching: balancing multiple roles (leader, supervisor, peer, coach) fluidly without derailing conversations. Coaching is often better caught than taught—demonstrations and live experiences help people grasp its transformative power more than explanations. Takeaways: Internal coaching is the reality for most professionals, and learning its unique dynamics is essential for effective leadership. Being intentional about confidentiality, boundaries, and bias safeguards trust when coaching inside an organization. Demonstrating value and educating others about coaching is critical even for internal coaches—visibility and clarity sustain impact. Leaders who master “hat switching” can seamlessly balance authority with coaching presence, maximizing both trust and effectiveness. Coaching from the inside-out creates sustainable cultural transformation, equipping leaders to unlock potential at every level.

What If the CIA and Weyland-Yutani Merged? (Spoiler: Everyone Dies) This week on the podcast, Alien: Earth Episode 5 and Episodes 3 & 4 of The Terminal List: Dark Wolf reviews. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Alien Earth: The Terminal List: Alien: Earth (FX/Hulu) Episode 5 – “In Space, No One…” Summary: A flashback shows the events that occurred on the Maginot starting seventeen days before it reached Earth. Junior security officer Clem wakes Morrow from cryosleep and tells him there has been a fire in one of the containment rooms. Two facehuggers have escaped and latched upon ship’s captain Dinsdale and science officer Bronski. Dinsdale dies from the facehugger’s acid blood when medical officer Rahim attempts to cut the tail from his neck. After being told by engineer Shmuel that the ship’s navigational systems were also damaged in the fire, Morrow concludes that a crew member has sabotaged the ship. Executive officer Zaveri assumes command of the ship, but Morrow threatens to relieve her if she does not prioritize the creatures above the crew. Bronski is placed in cryo-sleep to prevent the gestation of the Xenomorph, but this fails. In science officer Chibuzo’s lab, one leech specimen manages to open its test tube from the inside, and lays its larvae in her water bottle. Witnessing this, the Ocellus also escapes after Chibuzo fails to seal its containment vessel. Apprentice engineer Malachite drinks the water, and the larvae kill him from the inside; Chibuzo and Rahim are also killed by their defensive toxic gas when trying to extract them. Witnessing this, Zavari is in shock and Morrow relieves her of command. After being interrogated by Morrow, navigator Teng is killed by the fully-grown Xenomorph. Chief engineer Petrovich is revealed to be behind the sabotage at the order of Boy Kavalier, who promises him a hybrid body if the ship crashes in Prodigy territory. Petrovich kills Clem and is in turn killed by Morrow, who retreats to the control room and seals himself in. Zaveri is killed by the Xenomorph outside the door. With everyone dead, Morrow locks himself in the panic room and awaits the crash. Back in the present, Morrow meets with Yutani, offering to retrieve the specimens by force and kill Kavalier.

Out of 5 In Space, No One… Hears You in the Loving Embrace of a Facehugger Darryl: 4.15/5 Brian: 4.28/5 The Terminal List: Dark (Amazon Prime) Episode 3 – “What’s Past Is Prologue” Summary: Vahid and Cyrus Rahimi attend a conference on the Iranian nuclear agreement in Geneva, and later meet with Minister Yousef Saedi. Farooq, Landry, and another CIA officer, Ish Reinhart, join Haverford’s team. Danawi’s phone shows he received $5 million in cryptocurrency to deliver to Balaz Molnar, a nuclear physics professor in Budapest. Texts come through from another number identified as Thana Haddad. Farooq questions her and discovers she is Danawi’s estranged daughter, but can’t bring himself to follow orders to kill her. Varon agrees not to tell the others after he confesses that, as a teenager, his sisters were raped by Uday Hussein, but he later helped the Americans in eliminating him. Edwards and Perash bond, but he becomes more estranged from his wife stateside. Impersonating Danawi, Farooq meets with Molnar and purchases proof of concept for proprietary bearings he is selling to Iran, which will enable them to still enrich uranium with the smaller number of centrifuges mandated by the nuclear deal. A third-party team tail Farooq after the meeting until he is extracted by Landry, and one kills Reinhart. Edwards has Varon cut CCTV and guns the man down on the Budapest Metro, taking a photo for identification before being extracted himself. Writer & Director: Directed by Liz Friedlander, written by Naomi Iizuka and Max Adams. Cast Highlights: Taylor Kitsch (Ben Edwards), Tom Hopper (Raife Hastings), Chris Pratt (James Reece), Rona‑Lee Shimon (Eliza Perash), Dar Salim (Mo Farooq), Rashidz Tzarfati (Tal Varon), Robert Wisdom (Jed Haverford), among others. Air Date: Premiered August 27, 2025 alongside Episodes 1 & 2. Episode 4 – “The Sound of the Guns” Summary: Hastings is contacted by a former Selous Scouts associate of his father, who confirms Haverford manages a long-term asset in Tehran codenamed Shepherd. Minister Saedi thanks Cyrus for his clandestine work, but Vahid begins to question their actions of putting nuclear weapons in the hands of such men. The team relocates to Munich, discovering the third party is the nuclear proliferation Khalid Network, working to move the bearings into Iran before the nuclear deal is finalised. Haverford plans to intercept the convoy in Geneva and swap Molnar's bearings for fakes, rendering Iran's new facility useless. He assures a suspicious Hastings that Shepherd’s intel is legitimate. Edwards and Perash kiss whilst scouting a location. Varon secures the fake bearings from Mossad agent Mordechai Ofer. Hastings becomes concerned about collateral damage with the convoy ambush plan and Edwards’ change in attitude. Edwards argues their current posting allows them to take real action compared to serving under military red tape. Haverford kills Molnar. Impersonating Austrian Federal Police, the team attacks the Khalid Network convoy and obtains the bearings, but are met by a large team of shooters on exfil. Farooq is injured and extracted by Landry. The Israelis betray the team, hacking Haverford's phone and stealing the bearings after incapacitating Edwards.

Sojourner Truth plied the Hudson for 20 years Over seven decades, the Clearwater and Woody Guthrie have sailed the Hudson, amplifying folk singer and Beacon resident Pete Seeger's passionate call to clean up the river and make it more accessible. The iconic sloops are part of Seeger's legacy, but what has largely faded from the collective memory is a third boat he inspired, Sojourner Truth, which carried out his environmental mission for two decades before being destroyed in a storm. Like the Woody Guthrie, the Sojourner Truth was a replica of the ferry sloops that carried goods and people across the Hudson in the 18th and 19th centuries. By the 1830s, more than 1,000 of the wide, shallow-hulled boats were navigating the river. "Pete was an enthusiast for ferry sloops and after failing to convince people to build one, he decided to pay for the Woody and Sojourner out of pocket," hoping to inspire other river towns, said James Malchow, a Woody Guthrie captain. Seeger wanted the smaller, affordable, volunteer-led sloops to carry out Clearwater's environmental mission. "Pete saw the ferry sloops as an organizing tool - a way to get people to work together," Malchow said. Seeger and his wife, Toshi, are credited with naming the Sojourner Truth, an homage to the former enslaved woman from Ulster County who during the 19th century advocated abolition, temperance, civil rights and women's rights. The sloop's hull was built in 1979 by Ferro Boat Builders in Annapolis, Maryland, using a mold from the Woody Guthrie. The hull consisted of steel mesh, rebar and concrete, which is less costly than wood and requires less maintenance. The hull was trucked to Eddyville, near Kingston, where Seeger and other volunteers began outfitting the boat until Ferry Sloops, a newly created nonprofit, took over the project in Yonkers and later in Hastings-on-Hudson. Con Edison donated a utility pole that became the 46-foot mast. The local highway department provided yellow paint for the hull. The boom was shaped from Clearwater's original gaff. Seeger, who owned the Woody Guthrie, contributed its spare suit of sails. An inboard motor was donated. The 47-foot Sojourner Truth was launched in August 1981 and, within two years, began appearing at riverfront festivals. Its ports included Hastings-on-Hudson; Alpine, New Jersey; Yonkers; and Croton-on-Hudson. Other than the hull color, the Sojourner Truth was a twin to Woody Guthrie, launched three years earlier. (The Clearwater, launched in 1969, is 106 feet.) In the early 1990s, Sojourner Truth was vandalized while moored at Yonkers. Fire destroyed its sails and damaged the deck, but it was repaired and continued to sail. Its volunteer crew numbered from four to eight and the sloop, which could hold a dozen passengers, offered sailor training, venturing as far north as Albany and as far south as Sandy Hook, New Jersey. For years until the late 1990s, in October and November, the three sloops sailed the river filled with pumpkins, replicating the work of the 19th-century sloops. Free sails were offered at each port of call, culminating around Halloween at South Street Seaport in New York City, recalled Maryellen Healy, a former Woody Guthrie captain and Clearwater sailor. "It felt like a special moment in time," she said. Sojourner Truth also was a frequent visitor at the Great Hudson River Revival Festival, a celebration of music and the environment co-founded by Seeger and, until recently, held each June at Croton Point Park. Beverly Dyckman, a former Peekskill resident, sailed on Sojourner Truth in the 1980s, training as a crew member. "It was empowering," she said. "I felt freedom, a respite from my worries. When we were zigzagging across the river, slicing into the wind, there was a feeling of power, with water coming up over the rail because we were going so fast." Although Sojourner Truth had a top speed of 7 knots (about 8 miles an hour), Healy has similar memories. "That sounds slow in the auto...

On today's podcast, we talk about an innovative specialized primary care model for older veterans called the Geriatric Patient Aligned Care Team (GeriPACT) program.  It's designed with smaller patient panels and enhanced social worker and pharmacist involvement, and its approach is aimed at improving care and outcomes for our aging population. We unpack the intriguing findings of a recent JAMA Network Open study authored by one of our guests, Susan “Nicki” Hastings, looking at GeriPACT that compares it to a traditional Patient Aligned Care Team (PACT).  While GeriPACT successfully delivered more attention to geriatric conditions, it surprisingly didn't translate into expected improvements like more time at home or better self-rated health. We discuss the potential reasons behind this with our other two guests, one a geriatrics fellow, Kristie Hsu, and the other a recurring guest and host of the podcast, Ken Covinsky.  Was it just that it didn't work, or were there other things going on, from the intensity of "usual care" to the challenges of measuring complex health outcomes and the possibility that 18 months simply wasn't long enough to see the full benefits? Despite what was ostensibly a negative trial, we highlight some reassuring aspects and future hopes for GeriPACT and how we can all incorporate some of these components into the care of our patients. We'll also pose critical questions for future research, emphasizing why continued development and evaluation of new care models are essential for the health of our older population.

This is a link post. So the situation as it stands is that the fraction of the light cone expected to be filled with satisfied cats is not zero. This is already remarkable. What's more remarkable is that this was orchestrated starting nearly 5000 years ago. As far as I can tell there were three completely alien to-each-other intelligences operating in stone age Egypt: humans, cats, and the gibbering alien god that is cat evolution (henceforth the cat shoggoth.) What went down was that humans were by far the most powerful of those intelligences, and in the face of this disadvantage the cat shoggoth aligned the humans, not to its own utility function, but to the cats themselves. This is a phenomenally important case to study- it's very different from other cases like pigs or chickens where the shoggoth got what it wanted, at the brutal expense of the desires [...] --- First published: September 2nd, 2025 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/WLFRkm3PhJ3Ty27QH/the-cats-are-on-to-something Linkpost URL:https://www.hgreer.com/CatShoggoth/ --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

When you substitute understanding with gimmicks, you hamper your score now and in the long term. Tips like “10 questions in 10 minutes” or “If you don't understand an answer, it's probably correct” excuse poor reading and rushed test-taking. When you accept that the LSAT is easy and every question is solvable, you're more likely to commit to a problem until you solve it. No shortcuts needed. ⁠Study with our Free plan⁠⁠Download our iOS app⁠⁠Watch Episode 522 on YouTube⁠0:40 – Structuring StudyMila started with a 150 and plans to study two to three hours a day while in school. Ben and Nathan suggest limiting LSAT time to one focused hour and prioritizing perfect grades. After she's secured perfect grades for the semester, she can switch to LSAT prep. Mila and other candidates looking to boost their GPA could also consider enrolling in a few community college courses that offer A+ grades. 5:21 – Undergrad Involvement in Pre-Law ClubsKyle wonders whether joining pre-law clubs is necessary. The guys explain that clubs and extracurriculars are negligible compared to GPA and LSAT. A 4.0 GPA paired with a great LSAT score will always outweigh résumé fluff. Schools may pretend otherwise, but admissions officers prioritize numbers.15:17 – Graduate School ConundrumCarson asks if finishing grad school before law school makes sense. Ben and Nathan point out that lawyers learn what they need on the job—grad degrees won't add value. Universities push unnecessary certificates and programs because they profit from them. Don't pair bad LSAT prep with wasted tuition. Learn freely, but don't pay for credentials you don't need.26:53 – Pearls vs. TurdsDemon team member Beatriz shares a questionable piece of advice that one of her students heard from another prep company: “If you don't understand what the answer is saying, it's probably correct.” Turd. This advice is antithetical to the Demon approach. Wrong answers don't need to make sense, but right answers do. If you understand the passage, you should be able to understand why the right answer is right.  The LSAT is easy if you approach it correctly.32:57 – UC Law San Francisco Welcome EmailNate reads a verbose welcome email from his alma mater, UC Law San Francisco (formerly Hastings). It's a wall of text showing what students pay thousands for—law school administrators framing business interests as justice. The email is more about promoting the school's image than welcoming students.39:50 – Choosing the Right Law SchoolSean wants advice on picking the right school. Step one: get your best LSAT. Step two: apply broadly and early. Step three: compare offers. Rule of thumb: rank schools by cost, not prestige. If a more expensive school is ranked higher, double its rank and see whether cheaper options fall within that range. Going cheaper often means graduating at the top of your class, with better job prospects and stronger networks.59:57 – Question TypesMcKenna asks whether she should study question types. The guys explain that focusing on question types is a distraction. Meaning is in the words on the page, not labels. Most struggling students overemphasize question types instead of careful reading. 1:07:53 – Personal Statement Gong ShowCelebrity contestant and Demon teacher Kaley shares a lived-experience essay. 1:19:05 - Word of the Week - InexorableAmong them was a rigid belief in the inexorable power of logic to change the opinions of others.Get caught up with our ⁠Word of the Week⁠⁠ library. 

During an archeological expedition to Egypt, Belgian detective Hercule Poirot is called upon to investigate the ominous deaths surrounding the opening of a newly discovered tomb.  As Poirot, along with his faithful companion, Capt. Hastings, unravels the enigma, he encounters a cast of characters, each with their own motives and secrets. The sixth short story from Agatha Christie's collection, Poirot Investigates features acclaimed DC actor and vocal artist David Bryan Jackson, along with musical renditions of Irving Berlin's classic “Puttin' on the Ritz,” by Chicago trumpeter Markus Rutz and his musical collaborator on the keys, Adrian Ruiz.  

Following the Norman Conquest at the Battle of Hastings, Norman culture transformed the country, as William I governed through force and bureaucracy. One of his lasting legacies - the Domesday Book - was the result of a complex and extensive survey to find out who owned what, and how much tax they should pay. It provided a snapshot of medieval life and has survived almost 1,000 years of turmoil, war and politics.  The Domesday Book can still be consulted in modern legal disputes today, but how did William's bureaucrats create such an in-depth document about an entire kingdom? What does the book reveal about the king's ruthless methods of conquering? And what light does it shine on the so-called Dark Ages? This is a Short History Of The Domesday Book.  A Noiser podcast production. Hosted by John Hopkins. With thanks to Dr Chris Lewis, a fellow at the Institute of Historical Research in the University of London, and co-author of the book, Making Domesday.  Written by Jo Furniss | Produced by Kate Simants | Assistant Producer: Nicole Edmunds | Production Assistant: Chris McDonald | Exec produced by Katrina Hughes | Sound supervisor: Tom Pink | Sound design by Oliver Sanders | Assembly edit by Dorry Macaulay, Rob Plummer | Compositions by Oliver Baines, Dorry Macaulay, Tom Pink | Mix & mastering: Cody Reynolds-Shaw | Fact check by Sean Coleman Get every episode of Short History Of... a week early with Noiser+.

Fresh off the flesh, the steaks deliver themselves on the latest episode of The Rewatch Party. Elise left Nick, Anthony, and Manny to their own devices and they're taking on Tim Burton's 1996 sci-fi masterpiece(?): Mars Attacks!, a film pitched on a series of random alien trading cards that somehow landed a spect-ack-ack-ack-ular cast. Debate the film's minimal box office profit margin, uncover the origin of the iconic martian “ack ack ack”, and a walk down memory lane to the days of Blockbuster, Hastings, and the noody aisle.  So ultimately is this a misunderstood masterpiece or a total misfire fit only for TRUE pokemon nerds like Geoff?  Only one way to settle it.  Tune in and ack ack ack like you mean it. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116996/

A free laundry, shower and korero service for people experiencing homelessness in Hawke's Bay is seeing an increase in demand and calling for more volunteers to help out.

Alexa Cook reports.

McDonald's workers have been striking at different outlets around the country in a bid to get the fastfood giant to commit to introducing the living wage. Staff have walked off the job at McDonald's in Hastings, Auckand, Whanganui, Wellington and Dunedin, with more strikes planned for later this week. The workers union, Unite, said the fast food chain's pay offer of 2.1% is not enough to keep pace with rising costs and the company making $105 million in New Zealand in the last declared financial records. Whanganui McDonald's worker, Rangi Tangira spoke to Lisa Owen.

Ben and Nathan share strategies for using visualization to stay engaged in Reading Comprehension. They also explain that getting a full-ride to law school takes more than just a high LSAT score—your application timing, school choices, and willingness to walk away from weak offers all matter.⁠Study with our Free Plan⁠⁠Download our iOS app⁠⁠Watch Episode 520 on YouTube⁠0:28 – How Law Schools Guide Career DecisionsA Harvard alumnus describes losing his job in big law after publishing an op-ed criticizing the Trump administration. Nathan and Ben discuss how law schools recruit students under the banner of justice, but then steer them toward corporate law firms. The guys remind listeners: you can't do public-interest work and make big-law money at the same time. Sending their students to big law is a choice that schools have a vested interest in. 9:27 – UC Law SF Sweatshirt DriveNathan shares an email from UC Law San Francisco (formerly Hastings) asking alums to buy sweatshirts for incoming 1Ls. He and Ben laugh at the school's request for $40 sweatshirts while simultaneously charging students more than $50,000 in tuition per year. 21:16 – Visualizing PassagesConnor asks for advice on improving visualization skills in RC. Strong reading comprehension depends on pausing to visualize the text—especially when it's abstract. Creating a mind map lets you evaluate each sentence and anticipate what's coming next. If you're not actively questioning and connecting ideas, you're missing the forest for the trees. 34:01 – Proctor TroublesMichael ran into issues with a proctor during his test and wonders if he should cancel his score. Ben and Nathan say there's no advantage to canceling. The real question is whether his practice test results showed he was ready. Prepared students need not worry about minor test-day issues.37:51 – Don't Settle for Sub-ParMike has a 3.98 GPA and practice LSAT scores in the 170s. He's considering applying in-state with a 166 but also wonders about his T-14 prospects. The guys advise Mike to take an additional gap year, score 170+, apply early, and secure scholarships at top schools, especially given his career aspirations. 44:17 – Conditional Full RideTheo adopted the motto of going to law school for free. After a gap year, he improved his LSAT, applied broadly, and accepted a full-ride scholarship to his top choice law school. The downside is that it's a conditional scholarship. Nate encourages Theo to stick to his commitment not to pay for law school.52:37 – Personal Statement Gong ShowNatalie is the next Gong Show contestant.

To start our new instalment of episodes about the most consequential political trials in history David explores the trial of the eighteenth century: the impeachment of Warren Hastings that ran in the British parliament from 1788-95. Hastings had been Governor-General of Bengal, controlling much of India for Britain and for the East India Company and making himself and many others rich in the process. So why did his former allies turn on him? Why did his trial last for seven years? Why did it end up as a festival of hypocrisy and madness? And why would its closest twenty-first century parallel be the impeachment of Elon Musk? Out now on PPF+: Part 2 of David's conversation with Alexander Douglas in which they talk about how Silicon Valley took a philosophical concept of identity and turned it into a commodity to be marketed. Plus, how should we think about ‘impostor syndrome'?

RETCON: ‘Retroactive Continuity' — generally used in science fiction and fantasy to re-write historical lore to make it conform to modern interpretations. That's what the BBC is doing to their new series on The Norman Conquest: William I of Normandy's successful invasion of the British Isles and the defeat of the Anglo-Saxon King Harold at the Battle of Hastings.
