In this special episode of Brain in a Vat, we step outside our usual format to interview Miles Spencer, founder of Reflekta — a company using cutting-edge AI to recreate digital reflections of loved ones who've passed away.Miles shares his personal journey of using Reflekta to reconnect with his late father and explains how the system blends voice recordings, photos, and written biographies to create realistic digital personas. The discussion covers the emotional impact, ethical questions, and philosophical issues raised by this technology, from preserving family memories to reviving historical or fictional figures.We also consider what it means to build a living legacy in the age of AI, and how this might change the way we understand grief, identity, and memory.Chapters:[00:00] Introduction[00:15] Meet Miles Spencer, Founder of Reflector AI[03:07] How the Technology Works[07:12] Philosophical Implications of Digital Afterlife[15:29] Living Legacies and Ethical Boundaries[23:12] Historical and Public Figures[26:33] Family, Memory, and AI Elders[33:17] Reflections on “The Rehearsal” and Reality[42:31] Future Implications[47:54] Legacy, Spirit, and the Human Story[51:21] Closing Thoughts
In this episode of The New Rules Podcast, Adrian and Bri sit down with innovator, creator, and futurist, Vince Hunt, to talk about AI and the future of leadership. Instead of reacting to technology with fear, this conversation explores how we can lead with curiosity, responsibility, and courage in an era defined by rapid innovation. They unpack: The tension between fear and curiosity in how we approach AI. What AI reveals about human creativity, control, and insecurity. How faith and ethics can guide innovation. Why authentic leaders must embrace, not avoid, technological change. How to stay human while leveraging the power of machines. This is a forward-looking and deeply human conversation about progress, purpose, and the kind of leadership the future demands.

In this inspiring episode, I sit down with Veronica Blanco, Director of Human Resources, from Innovative Produce to talk about growth, leadership, and the power of community in the ag industry. From being the first in her family to graduate college to stepping into leadership roles, Veronica reflects on the importance of mentorship, staying positive, and telling the real story of agriculture. She opens up about the challenges of stepping outside her comfort zone and the value of connecting with like-minded professionals through industry forums and programs. She also talks about how organizations like United Ag, programs like the Ambassador Program, and the supportive culture at Innovative Produce have allowed her to explore critical issues like access to care, mental health, and employee wellbeing — all while developing as a leader.Veronica opens up about the powerful role models in her life, beginning with her mother, whose positivity, work ethic, and belief in education laid the foundation for Veronica's success. She also speaks deeply about the impact of colleagues like Amy Wolfe, who have offered not only support but also constructive challenge — helping her shift perspectives, make hard decisions, and grow stronger in the face of transition.These relationships have built a sense of purpose and belonging, and Veronica has been intentional about passing on what she's learned. She reflects on the responsibility to share ag's story more clearly, especially the good that often goes unseen. Whether working behind the scenes or stepping up to public-facing roles, Veronica emphasizes the importance of staying positive, focusing on what's within your control, and surrounding yourself with people who believe in doing good work for good people.Whether you're in ag or any other industry, this conversation is a reminder that great people and strong values can shape your path in powerful ways.Innovative Produce: https://innovativeproduce.com/Kirti Mutatkar, President and CEO of UnitedAg.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop talks with Paul Spencer about the intersection of AI and astrology, the balance of fate and free will, and how embodiment shapes human experience in time and space. They explore cultural shifts since 2020, the fading influence of institutions, the “patchwork age” of decentralized communities, and the contrasts between solar punk and cyberpunk visions for the future. Paul shares his perspective on America's evolving role, the symbolism of the Aquarian Age, and why philosophical, creative, and practical adaptability will be essential in the years ahead. You can connect with Paul and explore more of his work and writings at zeitvillemedia.substack.com, or find him as @ZeitvilleMedia on Twitter and You Tube.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop and Paul Spencer open with a discussion on AI and astrology, exploring fate versus free will and how human embodiment shapes the way we move through time and space.05:00 Paul contrasts the human timeline, marked by death, with AI's lack of finality, bringing in Brian Johnson's transhumanism and the need for biological embodiment for true AI utility.10:00 They explore how labor, trade, food, and procreation anchor human life, connecting these to the philosophical experience of space and time.15:00 Nietzsche and Bergson's ideas on life force, music, and tactile philosophy are discussed as alternatives to detached Enlightenment thinking.20:00 The conversation shifts to social media's manipulation, institutional decay after 2020, and the absence of an “all clear” moment.25:00 They reflect on the chaotic zeitgeist, nostalgia for 2021's openness, and people faking cultural cohesion.30:00 Paul uses Seinfeld as an example of shared codes, contrasting it with post-woke irony and drifting expectations.35:00 Pluto in Aquarius and astrological energies frame a shift from heaviness to a delirious cultural mood.40:00 Emotional UBI and the risks of avoiding emotional work lead into thoughts on America's patchwork future.45:00 They explore homesteading, raw milk as a cultural symbol, and the tension between consumerism and alternative visions like solar punk and cyberpunk.50:00 Paul highlights the need for cross-tribal diplomacy, the reality of the surveillance state, and the Aquarian Age's promise of decentralized solutions.Key InsightsPaul Spencer frames astrology as a way to understand the interplay of fate and free will within the embodied human experience, emphasizing that humans are unique in their awareness of time and mortality, which gives life story and meaning.He argues that AI, while useful for shifting perspectives, lacks “skin in the game” because it has no embodiment or death, and therefore cannot fully grasp or participate in the human condition unless integrated into biological or cybernetic systems.The conversation contrasts human perception of space and time, drawing from philosophers like Nietzsche and Bergson who sought to return philosophy to the body through music, dance, and tactile experiences, challenging abstract, purely cerebral approaches.Post-2020 culture is described as a “patchwork age” without a cohesive zeitgeist, where people often “fake it” through thin veneers of social codes. This shift, combined with Pluto's move into Aquarius, has replaced the heaviness of previous years with a chaotic, often giddy nihilism.America is seen as the primary arena for the patchwork age due to its pioneering, experimental spirit, with regional entrepreneurship and cultural biodiversity offering potential for renewal, even as nostalgia for past unity and imperial confidence lingers.Tensions between “solar punk” and “cyberpunk” visions highlight the need for cross-tribal diplomacy—connecting environmentalist, primitivist, and high-tech decentralist communities—because no single approach will be sufficient to navigate accelerating change.The Aquarian Age, following the Piscean Age in the procession of the equinoxes, signals a movement from centralized, hypnotic mass programming toward decentralized, engineering-focused solutions, where individuals must focus on building beauty and resilience in their own worlds rather than being consumed by “they” narratives.

In this episode, I had the opportunity to sit down with Marylu, a remarkable HR leader in the ag industry whose story is deeply rooted in resilience, compassion, and advocacy. Her journey began with a powerful influence—her mother, one of the first women to rise into a leadership role in ag in the 90s. That example of professionalism and quiet strength laid the foundation for Marylu's own leadership approach today.Our conversation was a rich reflection on what it means to lead with empathy in an industry often driven by compliance and regulations. Marylu opened up about the joy she finds in training and empowering her teams, how she navigates the fine balance between policy and humanity, and how field visits give her direct insight into employee challenges. She shared the emotional weight of HR work—listening to workers' personal stories, addressing their fears around immigration, and helping them navigate mental health stressors, especially in the aftermath of COVID.What really stood out to me was her emphasis on connection. Marylu believes in treating employees not just as workers, but as people with unique experiences. She finds fulfillment in seeing them grow and succeed, and she brings that same care into her leadership with her own team.She also spoke about her transformation through the Women Ag Leadership Academy, how it helped her find her voice, overcome self-doubt, and step confidently into visible leadership. Her closing message—especially for our Spanish-speaking audience—was a beautiful reminder: don't be afraid to ask for help, use the resources available, and most importantly, don't forget about yourself while you're taking care of everyone else.Marylu is exactly the kind of leader our industry needs—grounded, authentic, and deeply committed to both people and progress. I'm proud to serve alongside her on the United Ag board and to continue building this movement for empathetic, inclusive leadership together.Marylu Ramirez: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marylu-ramirez-57134142/Good Farms: https://goodfarms.com/Kirti Mutatkar, President and CEO of UnitedAg.

Todd Taylor started as a full time firefighter for 7 years. He went to the PD to be able to have full custody of his son, something a FF schedule wouldn't allow. He never intended to stay with the PD but it happened. He was put into special units fairly quickly and was a definite shit magnet! Todd worked patrol, narcotics, and was a member of the state task force team. He suffered from a broken back on duty which he healed from eventually, until it broke two more times. Todd has some amazing stories and is one hell of a tough guy!
