Texas Wildlife Association (TWA) Recap Larry dedicates a significant portion of the episode to the history, founding, and impact of the Texas Wildlife Association: Recent Event: Larry recently returned from the 41st anniversary TWA convention, which was held at the JW Marriott in San Antonio. Founding History: TWA was established back in 1985. Larry started the organization alongside his friends Murphy Ray and Gary Machen. The Catalyst: The group was formed after David Palmer, an assistant director of law enforcement, warned them about proposed Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) changes that would adversely affect private landowners. Land Ownership: The founders recognized a critical need to protect landowner rights because 95% to 99% of Texas land is privately owned. The "Broom Closet" Meeting: Initially, TPWD officials dismissed their concerns. The officials sent them to meet in Room 232, which turned out to be a broom closet. Official Formation: In response to being dismissed, they called a meeting at the Y.O. Hilton in Kerrville. Out of 50 people invited, 49 attended to form the "Wildlife Association of Texas" (later TWA). McLean Bowman was elected as the organization's first president. Conservation Impact: TWA has driven successful conservation initiatives, including the Texas Big Game Awards program. They also created the Texas Youth Hunting organization, which has introduced roughly 50,000 children to hunting. Auction Items: During the recent convention's auction, Larry sold one of his Savage Model 99 rifles and a brown western hat. Larry also outlines the history of DSC and details several upcoming events for the organization: DSC History: Larry explains that the Dallas Safari Club split from Safari Club International (SCI) around 1982. Summer Expo Location: Due to space limitations at the K Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, the expo previously moved to Atlanta and will eventually move to Houston. However, this year's summer show is being hosted at the Gaylord Texan Resort in Grapevine, Texas. Event Dates: The DSC Summer Expo will take place on July 23rd, 24th, 25th, and 26th. DSC Foundation Gala: The gala is scheduled for the Saturday night of the expo, July 25th. Awards: The DSC Legacy Award is going to Steve Hornady. Additionally, Dr. Mike Arnold is being recognized as the DSC Foundation Educator of the Year. Leadership: Larry highlights the work of Russell Stacy, Mary Edith, and Kaylee. He directs listeners to DSCF.org for more information. Bonus Content: Larry announces a new bonus video podcast that will focus on real-world field content. Auctions: He also mentions online hunting auctions as an additional platform for listeners to engage with. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Americans pay roughly three times as much for prescription meds as people in other wealthy nations. But why? Tahir Amin argues it's largely to do with how our patent systems work. He's been on both sides of the issue: He spent a decade as an intellectual property lawyer, helping corporations use patents to protect their bottom lines. Then he moved to India and saw firsthand how the global patent system hampered access to HIV drugs. That led him to shift gears and create an advocacy organization aimed at changing the patent system to make access to medicines more equitable. He chats with Flora about how it all works, and his new book, “Pharma Monopoly.” Read an excerpt from “Pharma Monopoly: The Battle for the Future of Medicines.” Guest: Tahir Amin is a co-author of “Pharma Monopoly: The Battle for the Future of Medicines” and a founder and CEO of Initiatives for Medicine Access and Knowledge (I-MAK).  Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

I was sitting in a leadership meeting with a client's managers, going through the numbers. Labor costs were climbing. Revenue wasn't keeping up. So I asked the obvious question — what's happening here? Why are we bringing people on when the revenue isn't there to match it?   One of the managers looked at me and said, "We just come in, we get a list of goals — or a list of new ideas — and we figure out how to make it happen. That's all we do."   You could see it. The empowerment draining right out of the room.   These aren't bad managers. They're talented people trying to pick up pieces of rice — absorbing every new idea, dropping the thing they were building to chase the next one. And every founder I know does this for the same reason: they're passionate about growth. Nobody moves the goalpost maliciously. They do it because they love moving something forward.   But here's the hidden tax. Every time you shift the gears — add the new initiative, change your mind, change it back — you add cost, you add confusion, and you erode trust both ways. The rising labor was the price of chasing ideas that never aligned with the goals you set in January.   When you sit in the middle of every decision, what it actually tells your team is: I don't trust you to make the call. And what your team hears is: I don't know what the vision is anymore, because it keeps changing.   So we put it all on the table. Calendars, to-do lists, six months of initiatives. Three columns: non-negotiable, aligned, non-essential. Then we trimmed. It's no different than a rose bush — prune the dead branches and the thing starts growing again.   Because if people aren't clear on what you're trying to accomplish, they can't stand behind it. Not every opportunity is yours to chase. Just because every other business is doing it doesn't mean you need to.   So ask yourself honestly: is your team running your business — or are you running interference for your own ideas? Keep the goalposts in the ground. Let them kick the field goal.   Key Takeaways: • Growth isn't more. More inventory, more products, more menu items, more initiatives — that's the reflex, not the strategy. Look at what's actually working first. • Empowerment is not delegation. Handing your team a list of tasks while you sit in the middle of every decision isn't trust — it's a bottleneck. • Moving the goalpost adds an invisible tax. Those rising labor costs were the price of chasing initiatives that never aligned with the original goals. • Trust erodes both ways. The owner stops trusting the team to move things forward; the team stops believing in a vision that changes every two days. • People can't stand behind a vision they can't see. If your focus keeps shifting, your team can't keep the main thing the main thing. • Prune like a rose bush. Cut the dead branches — the non-essential, non-aligned ideas — and what's left finally starts to grow. • Not every opportunity is one you need to tackle. Evaluate it against your mission before you execute on it. • Get into a rhythm with your team. Meet regularly — what's working, what's not, where are we stuck — and adjust, instead of just piling on more.   Timestamps / Chapter Markers: 00:00   Is your team running your business or are you running interference for your own ideas? 00:35   The goalposts keep moving — you add, you remove, you change your mind, then change it again 01:10   The team picking up pieces of rice — absorbing every shift, juggling it all 01:45   They don't just want to execute. They want to know their work matters 02:09   The client whose goalpost never stops moving 03:20   In the room for the financial meeting — labor up, revenue flat 04:00   The manager's line: "We just get a list and figure out how to make it happen" 04:26   What that statement says about trust between owners and their teams 05:10   Empowerment isn't delegation — and the owner sitting in the middle of everything 05:50   "I don't trust you to decide." "I don't know what your vision is." 06:37   The invisible tax — why those labor costs were really rising 07:20   Trust erodes both ways: the owner's frustration, the team's deflation 08:10   Given a leader's title — and just checking boxes and completing tasks 08:57   When things get hard, the easy move is to add something new 09:40   "Let me see your calendars, your to-do list, your initiative list" 10:55   Pruning the rose bush: cut the dead branches and it grows again 11:26   Initiatives that don't fit the brand — chickens with their heads cut off 12:10   Momentum drained: gaining energy, then forced to stop and shift gears 12:50   Not every opportunity is yours to chase 13:30   Want to rebuild trust? Stop moving the goalpost and empower your team 14:20   Keep the goalposts in the ground so your team can kick the field goal   If this one felt like I was sitting across the table talking straight at you — hit subscribe, share it with the founder in your life who keeps moving the goalposts, and leave a review so more Main Street owners can find it.   And if you're sitting there thinking, "My gosh, Theresa, you're speaking to me" — drop me a DM. We'll hop on a call, talk through how many goalposts you've moved, and build a plan to keep them in the ground so your team can finally get those projects across the finish line.   READY TO UNCOVER THE BLIND SPOT HURTING YOUR SMALL BUSINESS?

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we explore the dynamic shifts and breakthroughs shaping the industry, from major acquisitions to groundbreaking scientific advancements. Merck KGaA has made headlines with its bold $11.3 billion acquisition of Bio-Techne Corporation. This marks Merck's most significant deal since purchasing Sigma-Aldrich in 2015, reinforcing its strategic focus on expanding its life sciences tools portfolio. The acquisition aims to accelerate innovation in drug development and diagnostics, highlighting Merck's commitment to enhancing its capabilities in biotechnology under the leadership of CEO Kai Beckmann. Such strategic moves underscore a broader trend towards bolstering biotech portfolios through mergers and acquisitions as companies aim to remain competitive in an ever-evolving market landscape. In regulatory news, the FDA has approved a pioneering combination therapy involving Gilead's Trodelvy and Merck & Co.'s Keytruda for the first-line treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This aggressive cancer subtype has historically had limited treatment options, making this approval particularly significant. The combination therapy leverages an antibody-drug conjugate targeting Trop-2 alongside a PD-1 inhibitor, offering a promising new strategy that could substantially improve patient survival outcomes. This development also highlights the growing role of antibody-drug conjugates in oncology, illustrating how innovative therapeutic combinations can enhance treatment efficacy. Meanwhile, Pfizer's Ibrance has received FDA approval for label expansion to treat HR-positive, HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. As a CDK4/6 inhibitor crucial in cell cycle regulation, Ibrance's expanded use reflects ongoing advancements in targeted therapies that personalize cancer treatment based on specific molecular characteristics. Such expansions demonstrate the importance of continuous clinical evaluation and regulatory engagement in extending the lifecycle and applications of existing drugs. Ionis Pharmaceuticals has gained FDA approval for Tryngolza for severe hypertriglyceridemia, marking a significant milestone for antisense oligonucleotide therapies. By targeting apolipoprotein C-III, Tryngolza offers a novel approach to managing metabolic conditions linked to pancreatitis risks. This approval underscores the growing importance of antisense technology in addressing complex lipid disorders and highlights Ionis' strategic efforts to expand market reach through global partnerships. On the business development front, Boehringer Ingelheim's partnership with Immunai aims to leverage artificial intelligence in T-cell target discovery for cancer and autoimmune diseases. The integration of AI/ML technologies into drug discovery processes is increasingly seen as essential for enhancing precision and efficiency. This collaboration reflects an industry-wide shift towards embracing technology to improve research and development outcomes. In clinical trials, Otsuka's centanafadine shows promise for adults with ADHD and comorbid anxiety following successful Phase 3b trials. As a small molecule reuptake inhibitor, centanafadine could provide dual therapeutic benefits for patients with these overlapping conditions. Such developments highlight ongoing innovation in neuropsychiatric treatments aimed at addressing mental health conditions with greater precision. Financially, Oblenio Bio's $62 million Series B funding round will support advancing its tri-specific autoimmune T-cell engager into trials, potentially offering new solutions for autoimmune diseases through innovative immunotherapy approaches. These financial movements illustrate how companies are strategically positioning themselves to capitalize on emerging therapeutic opportunities. Amid these developments, regulatory dynamics continue to evolve, as seen with the FDA's pilot program aimed at streamlining drug approval processes. Initiatives like these are pivotal in restoring confidence in regulatory frameworks while adapting to new scientific insights and technological advancements. Overall, these developments underscore the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors' dynamic nature, characterized by strategic collaborations, regulatory milestones, and innovative treatment options poised to enhance patient care and strengthen drug development pipelines. The ongoing integration of cutting-edge technologies such as AI signifies an evolution towards more personalized and efficient healthcare solutions. Thank you for tuning into Pharma Daily, where we bring you the latest insights from the forefront of pharmaceutical and biotech innovation.

We're back with another episode of Schauer Thoughts and this week we're taking a brief trip through the Carter Administration to explore it's ties to the agricultural industry and how that could've impacted women's health research for years to come. For legal purposes, this is all a hunch, a guess, and of course, *alleged* and I strongly recommend checking out the resources when this wraps. I hope you find this episode illuminating.

Most AI initiatives fail. Not because of the model. Because organizations skip the boring, essential engineering work that makes software survive contact with reality. Jake Dubin has spent 25 years building production systems, starting with neural networks that solved CAPTCHA back in 1999. He is the founder of Transcendent Software and is building CoffeeBreak, an AI platform focused on reliable human-centered workflows. In this episode, Jake breaks down why human in the loop almost never means what people think it means, what vibe coding is, and why it is quietly creating massive technical debt, and why the same fundamentals that built dependable software for decades still apply, no matter how powerful the model gets. If your AI investment is not delivering what you promised the board, this episode tells you exactly why.

Text us your thoughts on the episode or the show!Despite massive investment in AI, many organizations are struggling to generate meaningful business impact. Why? According to Paul Shirer, most companies are treating AI as a tooling problem when it's really a workflow and adoption problem.In this episode, hosts Michael Hartmann sit down with Paul, Founder & CEO of Infinite Ideas AI and Director of AI & GTM Technology at Bridge Partners. Together, they discussed where AI adoption goes wrong, how leaders should think about workflow design and decision-making, and what it actually takes to move beyond experimentation toward measurable value.In this episode:Why AI is a workflow and adoption problem, not a tooling problemWhat's really causing the high failure rate of AI initiativesHow to tell useful AI adoption apart from "agent sprawl"Why Paul moved away from end-to-end automated workflows, and what changed his mindWhat a connected workspace looks like in practiceBalancing flexibility and governance when every team wants a custom solutionWhy the data layer matters even more in an AI-driven environmentWhether you're being asked to justify AI investments or trying to turn experimentation into real results, this is a practical conversation for operators closing the gap between AI hype and AI impact.Learn more about MarketingOps and The MO Pros community at MarketingOps.com.If you enjoyed this episode, do subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone in the ops community who would find it valuable.Episode Brought to You By MO Pros The #1 Community for Marketing Operations ProfessionalsSupport the show

Most organizations are extraordinarily good at activity and extraordinarily bad at progress. Meetings that produce more meetings. Initiatives launched before the last ones landed. Leaders who are permanently busy and chronically stuck. This is not a strategy problem. It is a pattern problem, and patterns live in culture, not in org charts. This episode examines the invisible cycles that keep organizations in motion without forward momentum: the norms, assumptions, and unspoken rules that make dysfunction feel like diligence.  In this episode: Meagan Bond, Tom Bradshaw, LindaAnn Rogers, Nic Kruegar, Stacy Lee, Rich Cruz I/O Career Accelerator Course: https://www.seboc.com/job Visit us https://www.seboc.com/ Follow us on LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/sebocLI Join an open-mic event: https://www.seboc.com/events References: Dweck, C.

In this week's episode, Scott McInnes sits down with Christine Armstrong, to dive deep into the critical importance of connection in the workplace. Together they explore how workplace trends have eroded relationships and the role of intentionality in creating a thriving organisational culture.  Christine offers practical strategies to rebuild trust at work and really nurture those vital human connections.    Key Takeaways:  Connection is a deliberate act, not a happy accident  Hierarchical and operational policies inadvertently undermine trust  Connection thrives on small, frequent interactions, not grand initiatives  Trust is the foundation for difficult conversations and authentic connection  The middle layer of work relationships has been lost to societal and organisational shifts  Organisations should design work around human needs, not assumptions of tradition  Simple listening and positive reinforcement are the most cost-effective trust builders    Timestamps:  00:00 Introduction to Connection in the Workplace  02:20 The Importance of Connection  05:20 Impact of COVID on Workplace Connections  08:09 Rebuilding Connections: Strategies and Initiatives  11:39 Creating Learning Moments and Engagement  14:12 Responsibility for Connection in the Workplace  19:50 Navigating Difficult Conversations  23:46 Assuming Positive Intent in Communication  27:02 Meeting Diverse Needs in the Workplace  30:40 Consequences of Weak Connections  35:06 The Power of Listening to Rebuild Connections       Connect with us:  LinkedIn  |  YouTube  |  Instagram     Connect with Christine:  LinkedIn |  Website

Listen to today's podcast... “There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.” This quote by Edith Wharton encourages us to bring light to someone who has been touched by the darkness. Many are living in darkness while struggling with illness. These illnesses may be depression, chronic pain, or battling cancer and the struggle they are facing may be draining the light from their life. Random Acts of Light encourage everyone to show a random act of light for a friend or loved one with cancer or other illness. Initiatives are being taken across the country to show support, one person at a time. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!      So Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Random Acts Of Light Day: Light The Night showcases the progress being made in the cancer arena along with the importance of supporting patients, one at a time. Bring light to someone you know. This can be any random act, big or small. Surprise someone at the hospital with a meal, gift certificate or kind gesture. Gift a cancer patient or survivor with tickets to a sporting event, or gear from a favorite team. Treat a local survivor or patient or colleague to a manicure, pedicure or massage. Take those in need out for coffee, ice cream, breakfast, lunch or dinner. Sometimes it takes just one gentle word or small token to help overcome darkness. Remember, If you like today's wellness tips, let me know.

Dylan Livingston on Longevity Policy, Right to Try, and Scaling the Longevity Dividend Jason Wright interviews Dylan Livingston, founder of the Alliance for Longevity Initiatives (A4LI), about advancing longevity through policy rather than products. Livingston traces his interest from discovering Aubrey de Grey as a teen to COVID-era experiences with his grandfather, which renewed his focus and led him to launch A4LI in 2022 as a coalition of longevity biotech companies. He describes passing a California resolution prioritizing longevity and healthy aging, framing the goal as achieving a “longevity dividend” worth trillions through reduced healthcare costs and increased productivity, and argues therapeutics can democratize longevity more than intensive lifestyle protocols. They discuss Right to Try, its limits under terminal-only access and liability concerns, and A4LI's work expanding access in Montana and New Hampshire for Phase 1-safe therapies. Livingston highlights AI-driven acceleration in biotech, cellular reprogramming with Yamanaka factors, and previews A4LI's Georgetown DC summit featuring major companies, researchers, policymakers, and a Capitol Hill briefing on US-China biotech competition. 00:00 Cold Open Banter 01:05 Why Longevity Policy 02:17 Dylan Origin Story 05:39 Launching The Alliance 08:24 Sponsor Message 09:18 California Policy Playbook 10:49 Longevity Dividend Explained 12:39 Therapeutics As Equalizer 13:44 Moral Case For Healthspan 17:48 Right To Try Primer 21:17 Fixing Right To Try 22:23 Biotech Valley Of Death 25:22 AI And Medical Gatekeeping 26:01 AI Health Coach Teaser 26:35 Plan Aware Health Coaching 27:31 Longevity Goals And Motivation 29:38 AI Accelerating Biotech 32:10 Cell Reprogramming Breakthroughs 34:32 Aging As Root Cause Policy 37:10 Wellness Mindset And Agency 40:15 Prevention Limits And Lifelong Care 44:33 DC Summit Agenda Preview 46:24 Hill Briefing And Biotech Race 49:20 Wrap Up And Medical Disclaimer

French President Emmanuel Macron's announcement that France would increase its nuclear arsenal is a major blow to non-proliferation efforts, but what does this new development mean for European and American security?

For more than 50 years, the Combined Federal Campaign has been a part of DC life. It's the world's biggest workplace charity, letting government employees steer money straight from their own paychecks to their chosen charities. It's especially important to charities here because so many feds live here. But the campaign is now on life support — threatened with termination by the Trump administration. Why target a beloved institution? Drew Friedman from Federal News Network has been covering the story, and according to her it's more complicated than it looks.  Want some more DC news?

Ep. 83 - Chief Daniel Comeaux, the 31st Chief of Police of the Dallas Police Department joins me to look back at his first year in the role – his initiatives, his accomplishments as well as his goals for the future. Chief came to the job with 35 years in law enforcement, six with Houston PD starting in 1991 where he spent much of his time in narcotics; and 28 with the DEA which he joined in 1997.As I say in the episode, I think Chief of Police is a tough job, no matter what department, no matter what city. And the first year in that position has to be the most demanding – fraught with scrutiny, challenges and potential pitfalls – especially when you come in as an outsider to the department and to the city and on top of that, when you're coming to it after 28 years on the Federal side.In this interview, you will hear just how well Chief Comeaux has navigated these waters. He has drawn on all of his experience to define his role, strengthen the department, reduce crime and successfully recruit. He has done it judiciously with keen insight, thoughtful decisions, and I would add, humor. We talk about what shaped him and his leadership style over the years. We discuss what drew him to law enforcement, and some memorable stories from patrol in Houston including the people he remembers and all those fights and foot chases. We cover his time with DEA and talk about the case he is most proud of; the challenges of working hundreds of miles of the Mexican border while in both Tucson and Houston; and his work navigating every drug epidemic over those 28 years, from crack to ecstasy, meth, opioids and now fentanyl.Thank you, Chief for a great interview and for taking the time.

Getting AI WrongArun Varadarajan, Chief Commercial Officer at Ascendion, reframed how I think about why so many AI initiatives are failing.“90% of projects fail because people don't spend enough time defining the problem.”Not because the technology failed or the team wasn't smart enough.It's because leaders started building BEFORE they got clear on what actually needed to change.So what looked like AI progress was really just motion without transformation.And once leaders DO identify the real problem, many still don't move boldly enough to create meaningful change.They get stuck in pilots.Experiments.Incremental improvements.But never challenge the “untouchable” systems and ways of working that have existed for years.And when that happens, the real transformational impact of AI never materializes.The organization just falls further behind while thinking it's making progress.Arun shares with us the leadership conviction and organizational courage to get AI right.Where do you think most organizations are still getting AI wrong?-----Connect with the Host, #1 bestselling author Ben FanningSpeaking and Training inquiresSubscribe to my Youtube channelLinkedInInstagramTwitter
