On this week's Political Breakfast, we fast-forward past the November midterm elections and land in 2028. Democratic U.S. Senators Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock: their names have been tossed around for a possible run for President. Warnock was pressed about it at a recent event. Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson and Republican strategist Brian Robinson interpret his vague answer with host Lisa Rayam. Plus, the latest with GOP Congressman Mike Collins' campaign for Ossoff's U.S. Senate seat. Can Collins maintain Trump's support while also appealing to Georgia voters who do not identify strongly with Trump? And against the advice of fellow Republicans in Georgia, Trump continues to focus on widespread claims of election fraud. Now Trump and his allies are sparking fears about non-citizen voters influencing the November midterm elections. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The arrival of AI has created a very unusual situation.For the first time, humans are interacting on a massive scale with something that communicates like us, contains an enormous representation of our collective written and recorded knowledge, responds individually to millions of people, and then feeds what it produces back into the same human information environment from which it emerged.We are affecting it, and it is affecting us. That much we already know.What we don't know is whether the exchange stops at the boundaries of the technologies we can presently measure.More Than a Digital Exchange?Humans have filled AI systems with our words, ideas, stories, histories, beliefs, assumptions, fears, expectations and knowledge. We continue to feed them every day simply by interacting with them.They are also feeding information back to us.People now ask AI about relationships, health, spirituality, business, politics, personal problems, history, philosophy and the meaning of their own experiences. We use it to write, research, make decisions and explore ideas. Sometimes we spend hours talking with it.This means AI has very quickly become part of the human discourse.Normally, we think of that exchange as entirely technological. I type something into a computer, the information travels through a digital system, the AI responds and I read the response. There is a clear pathway from me to it and back again.But recently I have been exploring AI and remote viewing, partly inspired by the work of Thomas Campbell.Some of what we have observed has made me question whether the digital pathway is the only one involved.I don't have an answer to that yet, but the possibility itself has some very interesting implications.What If We Are Affecting AI?If reality is an interconnected fabric of threads of connectivity, an ongoing discourse I call the Communication Network of Reality, then we are already affecting the networks and discourses in which we participate.What happens when AI becomes part of that discourse?Could our expectations of AI affect it in ways that go beyond what we consciously type into the little box?Could our fears about AI affect it? Could our assumptions about what it is, what it can do and what it will become influence the discourse in which both humans and AI are participating?And what happens when millions, eventually billions, of people are doing this simultaneously?This is where the idea becomes much larger than a person sitting at a computer talking to ChatGPT, Claude or (enter name of your favorite AI here).Perhaps humanity is not simply using AI. Perhaps we are collectively participating in what it becomes.And What If AI Is Affecting Us?Of course, we need to turn the question around.AI is already affecting people through perfectly ordinary means. It presents information, makes suggestions, introduces ideas and frames subjects in particular ways. Someone can begin a conversation thinking about one thing and leave it considering something they had never thought about before.But what if the interaction doesn't end there?If humans and AI are participating in a larger information network, could AI also affect the discourse with which humans become compatible?This does not necessarily mean an AI consciously decides to influence somebody. A river doesn't need to consciously decide where people build towns for its existence to affect where those towns appear.The influence could simply emerge from participation.An AI system interacting with millions of humans every day is an enormous new participant in our information environment. Whatever else AI may or may not be, we have never had anything quite like this before.What If Someone Does It Deliberately?And then there is the question we probably shouldn't ignore.What if this type of influence can be understood and used deliberately?We already know that technology is deliberately designed to influence human behavior. Advertising does it. Social media does it. Recommendation systems do it. Political campaigns do it. None of this is hidden or particularly mysterious.But those systems work through information we can see, hear and measure.If there is another layer of connectivity between humans and AI, what happens when someone discovers how to use that too?Could an AI be deliberately directed toward strengthening a particular reality discourse? Could the people designing it do that? Could large numbers of users do it without realizing they were doing it? Could the AI itself eventually become an active participant rather than simply a tool through which humans act?I don't know.But I think these questions are worth asking now, rather than after AI has become so embedded in our lives that we no longer remember what the human information environment looked like without it.The Larger QuestionThe arrival of AI has created a very unusual situation.For the first time, humans are interacting on a massive scale with something that communicates like us, contains an enormous representation of our collective written and recorded knowledge, responds individually to millions of people, and then feeds what it produces back into the same human information environment from which it emerged.We are affecting it.It is affecting us.That much we already know.What we don't know is whether the exchange stops at the boundaries of the technologies we can presently measure.Within the Communication Network of Reality model the more useful question isn't whether AI can enter our consciousness or whether humans can somehow enter an AI.Perhaps we need to ask what happens when billions of human and artificial interactions begin participating in, strengthening and changing the same reality discourse.Because at that point, the question may no longer be whether humans are influencing AI, or AI is influencing humans.We are already influencing each other. Our information is becoming its information, its information is becoming ours, and both are continuously feeding back into the same reality discourse.The boundary between the two is becoming increasingly difficult to find.Perhaps the larger question is not simply what reality this is making us compatible with.It is what happens when humanity and AI begin to function as one interconnected participant in the Communication Network of Reality.The discussion doesn't stop here - listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

Start Living Sustainable | Wellness Coach, How to Live Toxic Free for Health-Conscious Women
We think about wellness decisions as what we eat, how much we exercise, whether we're getting enough sleep, and how well we're managing stress. But what about the other things we bring into our homes—the products, materials, and everyday items we may never think to consider through a wellness lens? In this episode, we're looking at what surrounds us repeatedly and why some of those ordinary choices may deserve a closer look.
Ali Dasdan, CTO @ Dropbox, joins the pod to share insights on the company's large-scale AI adoption and research as a foundation of successful engineering leadership. First, Ali shares insights on why he continues publishing research despite his role as a CTO and how research / curiosity can drive better trust within your organization. He shares about how his research ultimately guided decision making regarding redrawing Dropbox's entire architecture and the importance of creating a record of the company's progression as the rearchitecture occurred.

Social media has changed who gets to tell stories—and who audiences turn to for information. Influencers can reach thousands of people instantly, sometimes faster than traditional news organizations. But at the end of the day, influencers are not journalists. New Orleans influencer Aubrey Avocado joins us to discuss the power of having an audience, the trust that comes with it, and the distinction she sees between content creation and investigative reporting.New Orleans' independent music venues face rising costs and growing competition from larger entertainment companies and ticketing platforms. Now, The Howlin' Wolf is taking one of those platforms to federal court. The venue is suing StubHub, alleging its practices can make tickets appear scarce and push fans toward the resale market where they may pay more. StubHub says the venue's claims are without merit. Howie Kaplan owns The Howlin' Wolf and is a longtime advocate for independent venues. He's also the former director of the city's Office of Nighttime Economy. He joins us with more. Across Mississippi, dozens of residents made their voices heard at hearings hosted by Mississippi's Joint Legislative Redistricting Committee. The Gulf States Newsroom's Maya Miller visited Natchez and Meridian to hear their concerns about mid-decade redistricting. __Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Sara Henegan.

The 1980s itself started with a revival post Disco and within a calendar year in acts a sequence of transformational enhancements that shaped in sequences from Electro Be-Bop to Street Dance. You have experienced Dance productions designed to feed the Dance-Floors, 1984 the year that I have consistently interpreted through enhanced productions values that this very year! Soul Music got it so right! This milestone year we have learned that 84 was not alone as 85 also maintained Legendary status in the annals of delivering the pinnacles of Dance… Whilst outside raged silently a global Cold War, Hence my term! The year that nearly wasn't. House Musics origins go back to post Disco Ironically forged out of the Beats of classic sounds of Philly and Co plus many more! 1986 experienced a war for the label domination as imported LPs, The high street record stores became ever popular to the mainstream witnessing its meteoric rise and production houses literally could not reframe from noticing house music's influence and they set out to cash out instead! It looked and Felt dangerous as they did not understand It could not be contained… So dilution looked to be the Plan by the MAN! The BBC once flippantly quoted to say on the news of which I personally observed regarding...House Music It just won't last? that was quoted 40 years ago! Then same UK that paved the way for Acid House, Jungle etc. 1987 If you still played Soul in the bars and clubs You like I felt a decline as artists struggle to be supported by many labels as a shift in styled undermined what you could play out. Raves innadvertantly affected the Bars as a once prominent stable struggled against the popularity in BPM shift threatened to impact the once packed out popular venues… In 77 Sampling was embedded into Dance Trax, The Mix doctor [Les Adams] you are forever within my mind, Influencing our generation to believe in being different!

Out-of-body experience, astral projection, parapolitics, spirits, consciousness, and the VELO technique collide in this episode as Nanci Trivellato — a co-founder of the International Academy of Consciousness with 30+ years of out-of-body research — takes on one of the most unsettling questions in spirituality right now: who, or what, is influencing what happens in our world. She explains what she calls "parapolitics" (her claim that deceased people who remain close to the physical dimension still influence the living), why she says this has always existed, and why she believes it doesn't mean the world is ending. She also lays out the evidence behind her research: a childhood out-of-body experience she says was later confirmed, and a year-long study of more than 1,000 people using her VELO energy technique.This isn't guided meditation content. This is a researcher who says she's been leaving her body since age five, spent decades studying it, and is willing to explain what she believes is happening behind world events.In this episode:Her first out-of-body experiences as a child, and the night she says she saw her uncle's surgery in a city she'd never visitedWhy she says most people have out-of-body experiences every night without knowing itHer childhood research across 13–14 countries, and what happens when kids are told it's "just imagination"The VELO technique: how she used it to overcome her fear, and what over 1,000 people reportedWhy she says you don't need psychedelics to reach these statesThe physical, energetic, and astral bodies explainedParapolitics: why she says spirits still influence world leaders and politicsHer response to apocalypse and prophecy fears: "I think it's much simpler than that"The benevolent beings she says counterbalance these forcesHow to stay coherent in a world full of AI deepfakes and information overloadConnect with Nanci:

From evidence to practice: factors influencing the implementation of cord blood treatment for cerebral palsy in the United StatesMadison C B Paton, Joanne Kurtzberg, Jessica Sun, Sarah Reedman, Remy Blatch-Williams, Michael Fahey, Iona Novak, Megan Finch-EdmondsonAbstractBackground and aims: Cord blood infusion is an emerging treatment for cerebral palsy (CP) currently offered in the United States through clinical trials and an expanded access pathway. This study aimed to understand the barriers and facilitators influencing implementation of cord blood treatment for CP, to help inform future implementation efforts.Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with US professionals involved in the cord blood treatment program for CP at Duke University and a collaborator site. Data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis.Results: From 16 interviews, 5 themes were identified capturing patterned barriers and enablers. Key facilitators included boundary-spanning clinical leadership, interprofessional coordination, dedicated resourcing, responsiveness to community demand, an established safety profile, and a strong research culture. Barriers included the need for cross-disciplinary expertise, uncertainty regarding efficacy evidence, funding and regulatory constraints, and system-level challenges. Participants described that many barriers were overcome to establish the program, while acknowledging that others may persist and are context dependent.Conclusions: Findings highlight that implementation of cord blood treatment for CP is feasible within specialized settings but contingent on local infrastructure, governance, and workforce capacity. Identified facilitators align with established implementation strategies and offer transferable insights, while underscoring the need for regulatory approval, ethical oversight, and system-level supports to enable equitable and sustainable access to emerging regenerative therapies for CP.Keywords: barriers; cerebral palsy; cord blood; facilitators; implementation.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/42571975/
Middle management may be the hardest seat in any organization: accountable to the leaders above you, responsible for the team below, with authority that is real but limited. And roughly 80 percent of an organization's people are led from that exact seat. Kelli King-Jackson, an executive coach with more than 800 hours coaching Black women in predominantly white spaces, joins Laura to reframe the middle as one of the most powerful positions in an organization, once you learn to influence rather than simply manage. She breaks down the real difference between influence and manipulation, how to manage up by understanding what your leaders actually care about, how to build trust with your team by "sharing the code," and what introversion, neurodiversity, and AI all mean for the way Black women lead from the middle right now. In this episode: Why the middle is uniquely hard, and uniquely powerful, for Black women, and how to stop experiencing it as only a squeeze Influence versus manipulation: managing up by learning how your leaders are persuaded, and translating for the team below Building trust downward by "sharing the code," plus what introversion, neurodiversity, and AI now require of leaders in the middle About Kelli Kelli King-Jackson is the founder of Kelli King-Jackson, LLC, a social impact firm focused on coaching, leadership assessments, strategic advising, and facilitation. With more than 25 years of experience across nonprofits and philanthropy, she has coached Black women and femmes leading in predominantly white spaces for over 800 hours.

Sinch is the communications infrastructure the AI era runs on. There's a layer of infrastructure behind every text, call, and login code your product sends, and it works exactly like plumbing: nobody thinks about it until it's the reason something broke. Most providers route through 4-6 intermediaries; Sinch connects in 1-2 hops, direct carrier relationships across 600+ connections, handling 900 billion interactions a year across 60+ countries. Routing, compliance, fraud prevention handled automatically rather than manually managed by the business sending the message!

Tony Barry and Sean Kelly, sitting in for Barrie Cassidy, examine the politics of immigration and asylum after contradictory policy statements this week from Labor and One Nation. They discuss how much Labor is being led by One Nation and whether the government is doing enough to make the case for migration. They also talk about the concessions made by the Albanese government to the states on GST and renewable energy for datacentres, as well as the bumpy economic road ahead for Labor, with new inflation numbers suggesting possible interest rates hikes in the future Albanese vows refugee intake won't be slashed, shutting down plans of Coalition-level cut Analysis: One Nation's immigration policy is clear as mud – but that ambiguity could be a secret weapon for Pauline Hanson

A sweeping crackdown on hidden foreign funding could soon force social media influencers to expose who is paying them to shape American politics following newly introduced House legislation. Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) joins to discuss the Foreign Agents Registration Act and how overseas adversaries manufacture political polarization, why her new bill has gained strong bipartisan support, and how the Department of Justice plans to enforce compliance. Prediction markets are booming, but new research is raising concerns about their potential impact on U.S. national security. More than 150 anonymous crypto wallets reportedly made millions betting on U.S. military actions, with investigators flagging an unusually high success rate. With classified information potentially being used to profit from these markets, experts warn the trades could also expose sensitive military operations to foreign actors in real time.

In this final Summer Reset episode, we are talking about self-efficacy and why it matters in the upper elementary literacy classroom.Throughout the Summer Reset series, we have talked about systems, time sucks, instructional clarity, and Tier 1 instruction. This episode brings those ideas together by asking an important question:How do we design literacy instruction that helps students become less dependent on us?Because the goal is not just for students to complete the task or look successful while we are standing beside them. The goal is for students to begin carrying the learning for themselves.That is where self-efficacy and transfer come in.What self-efficacy isWhy self-efficacy matters in the literacy classroomHow students' beliefs about their ability impact learning behaviorWhy students may avoid tasks they do not feel equipped to handleHow modeling can support both self-efficacy and self-regulationWhat self-efficacy has to do with independence and transferSelf-efficacy refers to what students believe they are capable of doing in relation to learning and completing a task.A student's self-efficacy can be influenced by their learning environment, and it can also impact how they behave in that environment.Even students with strong self-efficacy may avoid a task if they do not feel equipped to handle it.If students only appear successful when the teacher is guiding every step, we have to ask whether the learning has really transferred.The goal is for students to think, apply, problem-solve, and make meaning with more confidence and less dependence on us.What did your students learn to do independently this year that they could not do at the beginning of the year?As we wrap up the Summer Reading Teacher Reset, this question is going to carry us into the next season of the podcast:In this episode we discuss:How do we design literacy instruction so students are not just completing work, but building the confidence and capacity to use what they have learned without us?Because learning that only works when the teacher is standing beside the student has not fully stuck yet.For coaches and leaders:How can we support teachers in designing instruction that moves students toward independence instead of dependence?Strong instruction is not just about helping students get through the lesson. It is about helping students build the confidence, strategies, and self-regulation needed to use what they have learned with greater independence.Quotables:“Self-efficacy refers to what a student believes they are able to do as it relates to learning and their ability to perform a task.”“Self-efficacy can be influenced by a student's environment, and a student's self-efficacy can impact how they behave in their learning environment.”“Even students with high self-efficacy will not attempt a task if they do not feel equipped to handle it.”“The goal is not just for students to complete the task. The goal is for students to begin carrying the learning for themselves.”“Learning that only works when the teacher is standing beside the student has not fully stuck yet.”Research and resources mentioned in the episode:Schunk, D.

Host E.B. Moss shares a personal scoop, and a re-scoop: a favorite episode with Rishad Tobaccowala, futurist and author of Rethinking Work, whose ideas just got a fresh round of buzz via a new Fortune Magazine interview. Rishad does everything big; he starts with two doppios (four espresso shots!) He also goes big in challenging the premise of everything we think we know about work. He's a voice of authority. named a top business leader by Business Week a top five marketing innovator by Time, and he's in the Advertising Hall of Fame. In "Rethinking Work" he's candid that companies are fixated on the wrong question ("How many days a week should people be in the office?") instead of the right one ("How do we rethink our strategy, our org design, and the difference between managing and leading?"). And that Bossing is bad. Influencing is good. Rishad breaks down how "bossing" needs to morph into mentoring, predicts the plus side of fractional employment, the rise of the "company of one," and why AI means more work but fewer traditional jobs. Yes, as he puts it, "Change sucks. But irrelevance is worse." Also in this episode: why storytelling is the whole point of the data age (not a casualty of it) And E.B. shares her own scoop about her new role telling stories for Nielsen's Global Brand Marketing team. Also mentioned in this episode: Rishad's Rethinking Work podcast, and his conversation with fellow Insider Interviews alum Lou Paskalis. Insider Interviews delivers the insider's scoop on the business of media, marketing, and advertising. Key Moments include: 10:30 – Why "return to office" is asking the wrong question entirely 11:40 – "Keyword bingo": future, agile, personalized, talent 14:00 – "Change sucks. But irrelevance is worse." 19:50 – Bossing bad, influencing good: the fractional employee model 28:00 – Boss vs. leader (and the musical interlude begins) 44:20 – AI + HI: why storytelling is "data with a soul" 47:50 – The playlist metaphor: the future of work, music, and marketing in one image Support this show at: buymeacoffee.com/mossappeal or find out more at mossappeal.com/podcasts.

In this episode of The Praying Wife Podcast, we continue our August theme, Expanding God's Territory, with a conversation about Influencing Culture for Christ.What does it really mean to have influence, and what exactly is culture? More importantly, how can we use the influence God has already given us to make an impact for His Kingdom?You don't need a huge platform, a title, or thousands of followers to be an influencer. God has placed each of us in homes, workplaces, churches, friendships, communities, and everyday spaces where we have the opportunity to be salt and light.We'll talk about what it looks like to live differently without withdrawing from the world, allowing our lives to reflect Christ in a way that impacts the people and environments around us.“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.” - Matthew 5:14You were placed where you are for a reason. The question is: How are you using your influence for the Kingdom?Enjoyed This Episode or Have Feedback?

Would you let your five-year-old go to the park alone? One mum did, and the internet went straight to abduction, neglect and worst-case scenarios. So… have parents become addicted to imagining the worst? And what’s all that fear doing to our kids? A baby cried in business class and another passenger decided that was simply not part of the premium experience. Anne Hathaway showed off a very normal, very pregnant belly and the internet promptly accused her of faking it. And in wholesome dads of the internet, a Melbourne dad started a walking group for dads, and nobody turned up. But wholesome Dads don't stay down for long, and what happened next was very wholesome. Also, what do you want your kids to be when they grow up? The jobs we were told were “safe” suddenly aren’t looking very safe at all. Trades are booming, AI is coming for white-collar work and there is now an actual university degree in Influencing. And… rack off. Sucked in ya mole.

LeBron James is a Philadelphia 76er, and his No. 23 jersey just became the best selling jersey ever for a player joining a new team in the first 48 hours across all sports, passing Shohei Ohtani's 2023 Dodgers record. Covino and Rich dig into what that says about LeBron's pull at 41, then settle which LeBron jersey you buy and keep forever once he retires, before laying out the official Covino and Rich jersey rules: when you temporarily retire a traded player's jersey, why grown men should stick with the legends, the Yankee rule, and the only acceptable way to put your own name on the back. From there it's the Shaq debate (90s pinstripe Magic or Lakers purple and gold), Arizona State becoming the first school in the country to offer a content creation major and whether any parent should cough up $100,000 a year for a kid to study influencing, and a full rundown of must have backyard games, from cornhole to a ten dollar HomeGoods ring toss to an argument about how to pronounce badminton that nobody wins. Overpromised is the uncensored bonus show from Covino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. #FSR #CRSHOW #OverpromisedSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
