Die Schweizer Musiksendung «punkt CH» wurde erstmals am Montag, 29. Februar 2016 ausgestrahlt – Grund für uns, das 10-jährige Jubiläum eine Woche lang zusammen mit euch zu feiern. Heute treffen bei uns zwei Generationen aufeinander: Stefan Buck von Hecht startete mit seiner Band im Jahr 2000 – damals noch als Seng und auf Englisch. Riana stand 2018 beim Nachwuchswettbewerb BandXost zum ersten Mal auf der Bühne. Als Stefan anfing, Musik zu machen, war die Branche noch eine ganz andere: kein Streaming, keine Algorithmen, kein Social Media – CDs, Radio und Live-Auftritte standen im Zentrum. Bei Riana sieht das komplett anders aus: Streaming ist selbstverständlich, Reichweite entsteht digital – und kaum hatte sich die Branche daran gewöhnt, kamen mit KI schon die nächsten grossen Fragen dazu. Mit beiden schauen wir zurück auf prägende Highlights, fragen uns, was es im Hier und Jetzt braucht, und werfen einen Blick in die Kristallkugel der Zukunft.

In dieser Folge sprechen Sebastian Hänel und Max Guder über das Thema Neid und Missgunst bei Anglern. Aussagen wie "Das sind meine Gewässer" oder das sind "Unsere Fische" kursieren bei vielen deutschsprachigen Anglern umher. Woher dieses Verhalten kommt und wieso es bei Zander-, Hecht- und Barschanglern und auch allen anderen auftritt, analysieren wir beide. Zudem hat Sebastian den einen oder anderen guten Tipp parat.Viel Spaß mit der Folge und Petri am Wasser!Lass uns deine Skills auf's Optimum bringen:  https://www.zandercoaching.de___Shownotes: Fange regelmäßig und sicher Zander.

In honor of National Caregivers Day on Friday the 20th, CJ welcomes author, speaker, and leadership consultant Glenna Hecht for a deeply human conversation about caregiving, presence, and active listening. After a distinguished career in Human Resources with organizations like Starbucks and Walt Disney World, Glenna faced a challenge she could not fix—her mother's dementia. What began as frustration and attempts to control the uncontrollable became a profound shift: if she could not cure it, she could meet it with curiosity, compassion, and play.Out of that surrender came a simple but powerful question: “How old are you today?” That question opened doors to memory, imagination, and connection, ultimately becoming the heart of her memoir, How Old Are You Today? In this episode, Glenna shares why caregivers are everyday heroes, why they deserve more grace, and how listening—not correcting—can transform the relationship. If they believe it, don't bust the myth. Be willing to enter their world.If you are navigating dementia or Alzheimer's with someone you love, this conversation offers a way forward—not by resisting what is, but by going with it. You can learn how to play Glenna's game and create more meaningful moments with your loved one by purchasing her book on Amazon or wherever books are sold.Want to learn more about CJ Miller?

In this episode of Excess Returns, we sit down with Pete Hecht of AQR to break down portable alpha, capital efficient portfolio construction, and how investors can combine equity beta with truly diversifying sources of alpha. We cover how portable alpha works in practice, how it solves the funding problem for alternative strategies, and why implementation details like leverage, liquidity, and financing costs matter more than most investors realize. If you're interested in diversification, long short investing, managed futures, equity market neutral strategies, or improving total returns without giving up equity exposure, this discussion provides a practical and detailed framework.Main Topics CoveredWhat portable alpha actually is and how it differs from traditional stock bond alternative portfoliosHow portable alpha combines equity beta exposure with unconstrained long short alphaThe funding problem with alternatives and how portable alpha solves itTurnkey implementation versus separating alpha managers and beta overlaysThe role of equity market neutral, managed futures, and multi strategy approachesWhy private equity and private credit are poor candidates for portable alphaLong short leverage versus long only leverage and how to think about riskTarget volatility, risk models, and stress testing leveraged portfoliosFinancing costs in futures markets and how higher interest rates affect strategiesHow to evaluate portable alpha using excess returns, tracking error, and tail riskTax aware implementation and after tax returnsWhy mutual funds are not obsolete for active long short strategiesThe importance of asking whether a view is already priced into valuationsTimestamps00:00 Why you cannot eat a risk adjusted return02:12 Defining portable alpha and the problem it solves03:55 Portable alpha versus traditional balanced portfolios06:54 The funding problem with diversifying alternatives09:00 How portable alpha works in practice13:05 What types of alpha strategies work best16:35 Managed futures and crisis alpha19:49 Simplicity versus complexity in implementation21:46 Why private equity and private credit do not work in portable alpha24:15 Understanding leverage and risk management29:18 Target volatility and portfolio construction34:52 Stress testing and lessons from COVID and 202235:01 Risks and financing costs of portable alpha38:50 Interest rates and leveraged strategies39:07 Identifying hidden beta and volatility laundering46:08 Introducing AQR Fusion Funds50:25 Evaluating performance versus the benchmark53:17 Tax efficiency in long short mutual funds57:29 Is your view already priced in

This conversation features a thoughtful discussion between Nathan and Kelley Hecht on how nonprofits can use AI in practical, responsible ways.  Nathan introduces Kelley and highlights her work at AWS, where she helps nonprofit organizations adopt cloud technology and AI with a strong focus on data, security, and ethics. Kelley shares her journey into AI, explaining how early confusion helped her understand the gap between hype and reality. Together, they explore common misperceptions about AI, stressing that it is not about tools alone, but about clear goals, good data, and strong decision-making.   The conversation emphasizes data as a strategic asset and introduces Amazon's "working backwards" approach to solving problems. Nathan and Kelley also discuss challenges faced by both small and large nonprofits, the importance of leadership support, and the role of culture in AI adoption. They conclude by reinforcing that AI should strengthen human connection, not replace it.    HIGHLIGHTS  [02:22] Kelley's Role and Contributions to Nonprofit AI  [07:04] Challenges and Misperceptions in AI Adoption   [12:11] AI's Role in Nonprofit Ecosystems   [15:00] Data Strategy and AI Integration   [20:52] Working Backwards: Starting With the Why  [24:16] Moving Beyond "AI as the Answer"  [32:59] Data as the Lifeblood of the Organization  [41:45] Future of AI in Nonprofit Sector   Connect with Kelley:  LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kelleyhecht  Connect with Nathan and Scott:  LinkedIn (Nathan): ⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/nathanchappell/⁠⁠  LinkedIn (Scott): ⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/scott-rosenkrans⁠⁠  Website: ⁠⁠fundraising.ai/⁠⁠

Cassia van der Hoof Holstein writes about her cousin Chris, "captain of the cousins" in a family where cousin love means always having a place to go, advice in any time zone, and guides through every storm. She reflects on planning a Passover feast with Chris in Hawaii, their endless conversations about everything and nothing, and how the phrase "blood is thicker than water" doesn't quite capture it—it's not just blood, it's love. Love through a hundred seders, a million text messages, sharing apartments and childcare and sometimes organs. It's about what home means, what gets transmitted and transmuted across generations, and the ocean of cousin love that sustained them both.

Der Audi A8 D2 – Der verführerische Widerspruch Audi hatte bereits mit dem 200er und mit dem V8 seine Ambitionen in die Oberklasse vorzudringen, klar gemacht. So war der A8 im Grunde von langer Hand geplant und angekündigt. Als es dann Mitte 1994 so weit war und der erste A8 auf die Straße entlassen wurde, hatte Audi eine Luxuslimousine erschaffen, die einen Widerspruch in sich trug: der neue Oberklasse-Bolide war, zumindest mit dem Achtzylinder als Quattro, zu sportlich für einen gediegenen Gleiter. Gleichzeitig war diese Sportlichkeit aber schon immer Audis Markenversprechen: Technische Finesse, qualitativ hochwertige Verarbeitung und Sportlichkeit. All das machte eben auch den Reiz des A8 aus. Hier wurde die Oberklasse nahezu neu interpretiert. Wer Audi A8 fuhr, gehörte nicht zur bräsigen Elite sondern eben zu den dynamischen Machern. So zeigte sich auch Gerhard Schröder gerne im A8 und in der Folge dann auch, zumindest anfänglich, Angela Merkel. Neben der neuen Sportlichkeit gab es aber auch Verwunderung über den neuen Hecht im Fischteich: Wer die kleinen Motoren in der Serienausstattung und nicht als Quattro orderte, bekam einen Fronttriebler. Dieses Novum wurde vielfach belächelt, allerdings grundlos. Auch mit Vorderradantrieb zeigte der A8 ein ausgesucht gutes Handling, nicht zuletzt wegen der technisch aufwendigen Mehrlenker-Einzelradaufhängung, die das Auto sauber in der Spur hält. Später kamen dann der S8 und sogar ein Zwölfzylinder in W-Form dazu. Insgesamt verkaufte sich Audis Luxusschlitten bis 2002 runde 100.000 mal, was vor allem darauf zurückgeführt wird, dass die S-Klasse W 140 seinerzeit nicht den Geschmack der Oberschicht traf und der geneigte gutbetuchte Kunde dann lieber zum Audi griff. Ron und Frederic sind sich mal wieder einig: wenn A8 dann S8 in Vollausstattung. Während Ron allerdings in einem schwarzen Brummer flexen würde, zieht es Frederic eher zu einem gesetzten Dunkelgrün. Was das alles mit dem Film Ronin, Jason Statham und Aluminium zu tun hat – das erfahrt ihr in diesem Podcast.

Max Guder, eine Hälfte hinter dem Instagram-Account harz_fishing, hat sich mit mir in seiner wunderschönen Heimat, dem Harz, getroffen, um über sich und sein Leben zu sprechen. Obwohl Max noch vergleichsweise jung ist, hat er bereits eine beeindruckende Anzahl riesiger Fische gefangen – vor allem Hechte. Mit Fotos, Storys, Reels und YouTube-Videos erzielt er in der Social-Media-Welt eine enorm hohe Reichweite. Mittlerweile arbeitet Max hauptberuflich bei Pure Fishing für Savage Gear sowie Abu Garcia / Berkley, ist in mehrere Kooperationen eingebunden, landet regelmäßig auf den Titelseiten von Angelmagazinen und hat den legendären „Fisch-in-den-Weitwinkel-pressen-Pokal“ bereits vor Jahren gemeinsam mit seinem Kumpel Willi quasi auf Lebenszeit gesichert. Wer einmal hinter die Kulissen der Content-Maschinerie blicken möchte, wissen will, wie man Inhalte bewusst inszeniert, um Reichweite zu generieren, dabei aber nicht nervig zu werden – und vor allem, wie viel Arbeit wirklich dahintersteckt –, sollte sich diese Folge mit Max auf keinen Fall entgehen lassen.

Chelek Chof Hey pg 270. Hashem, lift me out of here!This week's Sicha learning is honor of:*Esty Tsap, in honor of her birthday today, Yud Beis Teves!*Brochie Altabe, in honor of her birthday, Vav Teves, and wishing arichus yamim and good health to her parents, Dr. and Mrs. Hecht. With gratitude to Etty & Mrs. Shapiro for making Chassidus so accessible to women, bringing Moshiach now! *A quick and smooth Refuah sheleima for Yehuda Leib ben Manya, we are all davening for you!Yaakov asked Yosef not to leave him in Mitzrayim, and Yosef promised he wouldn't. Then Yaakov said, “Swear to me,” and Yosef made a shvua. Why both a promise and a shvua? A promise means “I'll do it when I can,” but a shvua makes it front and center - something you live with constantly. On a deeper level, a shvua means commitment beyond logic: even if it doesn't make sense, I'll still do it. Yosef's mission was to bring Hashem into the golus and uplift it. He could have reasoned that Yaakov - with all his holiness - should stay in Mitzrayim to help elevate it. But Yaakov said no - “Swear to me you'll take me out.” Yaakov's role was to remain above the golus, like the person standing outside a cave holding the rope to lift the one inside. Yosef and Yaakov represent two roles: Yosef transforms the darkness from within; Yaakov stays above and pulls us toward Geulah.Our takeaway: In our own “golus moments,” be a Yosef - bring Hashem into whatever you're facing and ask, “What does Hashem want from me here?” But also be a Yaakov - never get comfortable in the darkness. Stay mindful, keep striving, and cry out, “Hashem, lift me up out of this golus!”

Can We Agree on What Skilled Mindfulness-Based Teaching Looks Like? Lessons from Studying the MBI:TACIn this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer and Dr. Rebecca Crane explore the Mindfulness-Based Interventions: Teaching Assessment Criteria (MBI:TAC), a widely used tool for assessing the competence of mindfulness-based program (MBP) teachers. As mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) gain popularity in clinical and workplace settings, ensuring teaching integrity and program fidelity becomes increasingly important. This study tested a training model to help mindfulness teachers reliably assess MBP teaching quality. The findings show that international MBP teachers can align their understanding of teaching competence, paving the way for standardized mindfulness education. Tune in to learn how mindfulness training is evolving to maintain high standards in research and practice.Full Reference:Crane, R. S., Hecht, F. M., Brewer, J. A., Griffith, G.

It's hard to say exactly when, but some tens of thousands of years ago, our best friends were born. I'm referring, of course, to dogs. This didn't happen overnight—it was a long process. And it not only changed how those canids behaved and what they looked like, it also changed their brains. As wolves gave way to proto-dogs, and proto-dogs gave way to dingoes and dalmatians and Dobermanns and all the rest, their brains have continued to change. What can we learn from this singular saga? What does it tell us about dogs, about domestication, and about brains?  My guest today is Dr. Erin Hecht. Erin is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard, where she directs the Canine Brains Project.  Here Erin & I talk about how dogs are the most anatomically diverse species on the planet—and how their brains are no exception. We sketch the different waves in the dog domestication saga and discuss scenarios for how that saga got underway. We talk about how brains change as they get bigger and about how they change during domestication. We discuss a recent study by Erin and colleagues comparing the brains of modern dogs with the brains of pre-modern dogs like village dogs and New Guinea singing dogs. We also talk about a new study from Erin's lab finding that domestic dogs share with humans a key language-related structure. Along the way we talk about the Russian Farm Fox experiment, the stereotype of the gentle giant, the left lateralization of language, the respiratory condition known as BOAS, the dog personality inventory known as C-BARQ, the limitations of the idea of a "domestication syndrome", and the puppy kidnapping hypothesis.  Longtime listeners will recall that we had Erin on the show to talk about her work on fermentation and brain evolution. Given how much fun we had with that one, it was only a matter of time before we had her back to talk about her main line of research on dog brains. So here you go friends—hope you enjoy it!   Notes 4:30 – For one recent study of the early domestication of dogs, see here.
