Newly declassified government records suggest a U.S. national laboratory considered a laboratory origin for COVID-19 to be just as plausible as a natural origin as early as May 2020, raising new questions about what officials knew during the pandemic's early months The released documents describe federally funded coronavirus research that included spike protein engineering, receptor adaptation experiments, and testing in humanized mice, helping explain why those techniques later became central to debates over the virus's origin According to the report, declassified records show Anthony Fauci participated in a 2021 intelligence briefing on COVID-19's origins, prompting new scrutiny over whether his later congressional testimony matched the documented timeline Internal emails and reviewer-selection discussions described in the records suggest scientists and intelligence officials continued debating competing origin theories behind the scenes even as the public conversation increasingly focused on a natural origin The documents underscore why reviewing original records, following the timeline and comparing private discussions with public statements gives you a stronger foundation for evaluating major public health claims

ChatGPT and "The Blip." Guest Author: Keach Hagey. The final segment focuses on the viral success of ChatGPTand the resulting internal conflicts at OpenAI. Hagey notes that as ChatGPT's popularity grew, Altman's focus shifted from early safety warnings to aggressive commercialization, causing friction with researchers like Geoffrey Hinton. A significant power struggle with Elon Musk led to Musk's departure after he failed to gain control of the company. Tensions culminated in "the blip," where the nonprofit board fired Altman for perceived lack of candor and "cutting corners" on safety protocols. While Hagey characterizes Altman as a master storyteller and visionary, she highlights that his management style left a "trail of angry people." Although the staff eventually forced his reinstatement, fundamental disagreements regarding the safe development of AGI remain unresolved, as leading lights in the field continue to warn of the technology's inherent dangers. 41943

The Liberation of Syracuse and the Fall of Dion. Guest Author: Professor James Romm. Dion invaded Syracuse with a liberation force but faced internal chaos as populist passions erupted. He clashed with the radical democrat Heraclides, whom he eventually had assassinated. This political murder embarrassed Plato's Academy, as both Dion and his later assassin, Calippus, were students. Following the murder, Dion fell into a spiritual crisis and became ineffective. He was ultimately killed by a disaffected faction of his own army. His death left Syracuse in terminal decline, marked by food insecurity and the destruction of the once-powerful city-state. 5

Story of the Week (DR):JP Morgan's news weekThe Lurid Lawsuit, Salami Scandal and Trash-Can Thief Vexing JPMorgan's PR Department AND Meme of 'JPMorgan's HR Department in 2026' Has People in Stitches Amid Sex Scandal and Knicks Bin IncidentShe Stole a Knicks Trash Can Off the Street and Lost Her Job at JPMorganThe Trash Bin That Cost Her Career: Who Is Angie Báez? JPMorgan DEI Executive Fired After Viral Knicks Parade VideoThe Trash-Can Thief: Angie Báez, an Executive Director of Community and Industry Engagement at the bank, was captured on a viral video during the New York Knicks championship parade emptying a public trash bin onto a Manhattan sidewalk so she could steal the limited-edition, blue-and-orange Knicks-themed container.The Resolution: JPMorgan quickly terminated her employment after the video went viral. Báez eventually returned the trash bin and was issued $175 in sanitation fines.But what kinds of thing DON'T get you fired and get you fined?In 2023, JPMorgan Chase agreed to a $290 million (1,657,143x) settlement to resolve a class-action lawsuit from survivors of Jeffrey Epstein. The bank was accused of actively ignoring glaring red flags and helping bankroll Epstein's sex-trafficking operation for 15 years.Internal documents and later congressional probes revealed that the bank processed roughly 4,700 suspicious transactions totaling $1.1 billion for Epstein. They failed to file a single Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) until after his death.Who Kept Their Job? Mary Erdoes: The Head of Asset & Wealth Management was fully aware of Epstein's status as a high-risk sex offender, reviewed his account, and was directly implicated in internal communications regarding his status. She faced zero professional demotions and remains one of the top candidates to eventually succeed Jamie Dimon as CEO.In 2020, JPMorgan Chase entered a deferred prosecution agreement and agreed to pay a record $920 million (5,257,143x) to settle federal charges of market manipulation.For nearly a decade, traders on JPMorgan's precious metals and U.S. Treasuries desks engaged in "spoofing"—placing tens of thousands of fake, deceptive orders to artificially move market prices and maximize their own profits. The FBI stated that traders "openly disregarded U.S. laws."While a couple of mid-to-high-level traders (like Michael Nowak and Gregg Smith) were later criminally convicted and sentenced to prison, the executive leadership team responsible for supervising them and implementing compliance programs suffered no casualties. Top management stayed perfectly secure, chalking the multi-million dollar fraud up as the work of a few "bad apples."The Salami Scandal: Veteran wealth manager Brent Bodner was fired by JPMorgan in 2024 after he expensed a $642.50 deli platter (containing wings, sandwiches, and salads) for a Super Bowl gathering at his Beverly Hills home. The bank accused him of intentionally misclassifying a personal party as a pre-approved business meeting.Bodner counter-sued, jokingly dubbing the controversy the "salami incident." He argued that the event was a legitimate client-acquisition dinner that only two prospects ended up attending, and that the minor coding error was used as a pretext to push him out.The Resolution: A FINRA arbitration panel sided heavily with Bodner, ruling that JPMorgan acted preemptively out of paranoia that brokers were leaving for rivals. The panel ordered JPMorgan to pay Bodner $4.25 million in damages.The Lurid Lawsuit: Chirayu Rana, a former vice president on JPMorgan's leveraged finance team, leveled highly salacious allegations against his female supervisor, Executive Director Lorna Hajdini. Rana's lawsuit alleges he was subjected to a campaign of racial discrimination, severe harassment, and forced sexual relations under the threat of having his career sabotaged.The Resolution: Rana rejected a $1M settlement offer, countering with a demand for up to $22 million before escalating the fight to court. Both Hajdini and JPMorgan strongly deny the allegations as entirely fabricated, and the legal battle is moving toward a highly publicized trial.JPMorgan Chase promotes Petno, Rohrbaugh to copresidents, setting up two more successors for DimonThe Wait to Replace Jamie Dimon Keeps Getting Longer: Another potential successor, Marianne Lake, is leaving JPMorgan, as the longstanding chief executive enters his third decade atop the bank.How JPMorgan went from 3 female CEO contenders to an all-male succession raceJPMorgan named Doug Petno and Troy Rohrbaugh, current co-heads of the bank's commercial and investment bank, as co-presidents, setting them up as the frontrunners to succeed longtime CEO Jamie Dimon. Their promotions, the bank said in a press release, "are part of the Board's ongoing succession planning process."Petno and Rohrbaugh were among a handful of powerhouse candidates poised to succeed Dimon, including Jennifer Piepszak, chief operating officer, Marianne Lake, CEO of the commercial bank, and Mary Erdoes, CEO of asset and wealth management.Marianne Lake, a Potential Dimon Successor, Leaves JPMorganOne-time Retention and Continuity equity awards to the following Operating Committee members:Doug Petno, Co-President and CEO of the Commercial & Investment Bank, and Troy Rohrbaugh, Co-President and CEO of Consumer & Community Banking, in the amount of $30M each;Mary Erdoes, CEO of Asset & Wealth Management, and Jennifer Piepszak, Chief Operating Officer, in the amount of $20M each.JPMorgan Chase unveils $50 billion buyback, Goldman Sachs raises dividend after Fed stress testA 6 year study shows which CEOs are pushing RTO mandates: The ones with the biggest egosFortune 500 bosses demanding staff return to the office share one trait: narcissism, research findsA six-year study tracking corporate executives revealed that strict return-to-office (RTO) mandates are heavily driven by narcissism and executive ego, rather than actual employee productivityWharton organizational psychologist Adam Grant noted that researchers used reliable corporate proxies to quantify CEO narcissism, including the oversized scale of their compensation packages, the size of their signatures, and the prominence of their photos in company annual reports.The data showed that leaders with highly inflated self-opinions consistently coveted maximum power and status, making them the most aggressive opponents of remote work.Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan pushed hard for a 5-day-a-week return to the office. Why they're now letting employees work from homeGameStop CEO Cohen spurns $35 billion pay plan to focus on plan to buy eBayGameStop CEO on His eBay Pursuit: ‘I'm Not Going to Stop, I'm Not Going to Go Away'GameStop unveiled a compensation package worth roughly $35B for Ryan Cohen ​in January, hinging on a turnaround that requires him to lift the struggling company's market value more than tenfold and sharply boost its profit.In May, Cohen surprised Wall Street with an unsolicited offer to buy eBay for roughly $56 billion in cash and stock to ‌turn the e-commerce company into ⁠a bigger competitor to Amazon.EBay's board rejected the proposal, calling the offer "neither credible nor attractive."Cohen argued that he doesn't want the package ⁠so that GameStop's leadership can fully focus on its operating performance and the planned acquisition.SpaceX handed lowest possible ESG rating by MSCI: Triple C score puts Elon Musk's company on par with Russia after 2022 invasion of UkraineMusk 'most obvious risk' following SpaceX's lowest possible ESG rating“Board of Directors: The SPACE EXPLORATION TECHNOLOGIES board currently has an independent majority, which enables it to more effectively fulfill its critical function of overseeing management on behalf of shareholders. The company has failed to split the roles of CEO and chairman, which may limit the board's independence from current management interests. Split CEO and chairman roles are characteristic of 67% of companies in this market.”Welltower CFO's $167 million pay package sets new recordWelltower's Tim McHugh is the new highest-paid finance chief among the biggest U.S. companies. His $167 million pay package in 2025 not only dwarfs that of his CFO peers but also outpaces the compensation of many CEOs.McHugh's pay at Welltower, a real-estate investment trust focused on rental housing for seniors, surpasses the $139 million compensation package received by Tesla's Vaibhav Taneja in 2024. This puts him more than $135 million above Alphabet's Anat Ashkenazi, the next highest-paid CFO in 2025. And it secures him a spot in the club of executives making $100 million or more, a group that remains rare.Here's what the article DID NOT MENTION: CEO Shankh Mitra: $821MGoodliest of the Week (MM/DR):DR: Scientists Say New Method Turns Coffee Grounds Into High-Potency Renewable FuelAccording to a press release from South Korea's National Research Council of Science and Technology, a team of researchers at the Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources (KIGAM) have developed a method to convert spent coffee waste into high-quality charcoal, known as biochar.While that's a feat in and of itself, the kicker is the method's blistering speed: it takes just 90 seconds from start to finish, with no drawn-out drying process or oil separation required. According to the release, the new technique solves a major issue in extracting the latent energy potential of spent coffee beans.DR: Bill to raise minimum wage to $25 an hour will be introduced in Senate DR MMThe bill would incrementally increase the minimum wage from its current rate of $7.25, with the first jump to $12 an hour in the first year of enactment. Major corporations would have six years to work up to a $25 minimum wage, while smaller employers would have a 13-year runway. The legislation would also do away with subminimum wages for tipped workers, such as restaurant servers, youth workers and workers with disabilities. Nearly half of the American workforce makes less than $25 an hour.DR: Federal judge blocks new law aimed at ESG, DEI investing decisionsA federal judge has blocked Kansas from enforcing a new law that requires institutional investment advisers to make certain disclosures when recommending against company management on issues, including environmental, social and governance principles.U.S. District Judge Holly Teeter on Wednesday issued a preliminary injunction halting enforcement of law enacted last session that two major national institutional investment advisers said was unconstitutional because it discriminated based on speech.MM: MacKenzie Scott alone accounted for one-third of America's $19.2 billion in megagifts last yearAssholiest of the Week (MM):CEO SPEED ROUND - ONE HEADLINE, ONE CEO, ONE LINERTim Cook - It's pretty sweet to quit your job and let the new guy fight the union: Apple closed America's first unionized store and blocked workers from transfers — now the union is fighting backJamie Dimon - It was easy - we just pointed to the ones with boobs and said “Not you”: How JPMorgan went from 3 female CEO contenders to an all-male succession raceZuck - The best thing about being a little man king with no accountability is I can randomly change and unchange and rechange my mind… about people's lives: Meta pauses an AI training program that tracks employees' keystrokes after an internal leakLarry Fink - Have you SEEN the size of my signature???

The higher the score, the more likely a CEO was to publicly oppose remote and hybrid work and seek additional status (like a board chairmanship).

This week on The Audit Podcast, Casey Atwater, former Head of Audit at ZoomInfo and founder of Internal Audit Collective, joins the show to talk about how AI is changing SOX, internal controls, and the way internal audit work gets done.   We focus on what's actually changing in practice. Casey shares why SOX is no longer just a testing exercise, but a design and architecture problem. As systems change faster and AI gets embedded into day-to-day work, the way controls are built and maintained has to change with it.   He explains why controls need to live inside workflows instead of being tracked in spreadsheets, and why management will increasingly take ownership of control design and execution. Internal audit still plays a role, but it shifts more toward advising, reviewing change, and focusing on higher-risk areas outside routine SOX testing.   We also talk about the gap between automation and complexity. Even though more systems are being added, many organizations are not seeing meaningful efficiency gains in controls. Casey walks through why that mismatch exists and what it means for audit teams.   The conversation ends with practical ways audit teams can start adapting now—by reducing redundant controls, looking harder at which systems actually need to be in scope, and working more directly with control owners to fix issues instead of just documenting them. He also makes the point that while tools and AI will change a lot of the technical work, relationships and communication inside the business still matter just as much.   1:42 — ControlBridge AI & the future of SOX 16:16 — Continuous monitoring 09:13 — Getting management to own controls 20:18 — AI beyond testing automation 22:24 — Practical actions for audit leaders 25:17 — Final Thoughts   Be sure to connect with Casey on LinkedIn.     Also, be sure to follow us on our social media accounts on LinkedIn, Instagram, and TikTok.   Also be sure to sign up for The Audit Podcast newsletter and to check the full video interview on The Audit Podcast YouTube channel.   This podcast is brought to you by Greenskies Analytics, the services firm that helps auditors leap-frog up the analytics maturity model.

During Ep. 37 of the Ask the Law Firm Seller Show, Jeremy E. Poock, Esq. addresses the following question: I found a Buyer for my law firm, but we have not agreed upon terms yet. What do you recommend? At the outset, Poock clarifies the scope of the question to apply to Small Business Law Firms, typically owned by 1 or more founders. Poock next distinguishes between why sellers typically have difficulty agreeing upon terms with either of  the following 2 types of purchasers:   (a) Internal successors; and   (b) Growing Law Firm purchasers.   Regarding internal successors, Poock explains the following as typical reasons for why negotiations stall:   Most internal successor prefer remaining as key employee lawyers because of their concerns about the following risks associated with purchasing their boss' law firm: (i) Risk of decreased originations after the firm's founding Rainmaker(s) retire; (ii) Risk of not affording to pay a purchase price; (iii) A need to work even harder; (iv) A worsening work-life balance; (v) Personal financial risk associated with guarantying an office lease and bank credit line; and (vi) Risk of key employees departing the firm.   Based upon those risks, key employee lawyers often stall negotiating purchase terms, followed by, at some point, sharing their preference to remain as an employee, rather than an owner of their boss' law firm.   Poock then explains the following typical reasons for why negotiations stall between selling law firms and Growing Law Firm purchasers: (i) Discomfort with asking difficult questions during due diligence; (ii) Not necessarily knowing terms to include in a letter of intent, offer, or similar document; and (iii) Difficulty negotiating financial terms with a buyer who is often a colleague or friendly competitor.   As a cure to such stalled negotiations, Poock shares the following advice:   That the parties consider engaging a deal intermediary to facilitate completing due diligence, negotiating purchase terms, and preparing an agreement.   Here's why:   The value of a deal intermediary includes: (i) Asking difficult questions to a seller and a buyer, including financial questions, experience level questions, post-Closing role questions, and more; (ii) Sharing the answers to difficult questions with each party, together with assisting the parties to remain focused on reaching deal terms; (iii) Facilitating the negotiation of deal terms; and (iv) Assisting with drafting deal terms into a Letter of Intent, followed by an agreement.   So, when a selling law firm and a purchasing law firm become “stuck in the mud” with reaching terms, a deal intermediary can provide the value needed to assist the parties with completing due diligence, facilitating negotiations, and reaching a win-win agreement.

If you own a multi-year guarantee annuity (MYGA) or are thinking about buying one, this episode could save you from a costly mistake. Discover why annuitizing a MYGA internally is rarely in your best interest—and how a simple MYGA-to-SPIA strategy can unlock the highest contractual guarantees for your retirement income.    In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  Definition and purpose of a MYGA (multi-year guarantee annuity) Why internal annuitization quotes are usually uncompetitive The MYGA-to-SPIA strategy using a 1035 exchange Focusing on contractual guarantees over brands and brochures Using an independent quoting process across all carriers   Key Takeaways:  A MYGA is best used as a principal protection tool with a guaranteed interest rate, not as a product you annuitize internally for lifetime income. Internal annuitization quotes from MYGA and other deferred annuity carriers are typically uncompetitive compared to independently quoted single premium immediate annuities. A MYGA-to-SPIA approach—using a 1035 exchange to move from a matured MYGA into the highest paying immediate annuity—can help secure superior lifetime income guarantees. The smartest annuity decisions are made by focusing on contractual guarantees instead of company names, product labels, or glossy marketing materials. Relying on a broad, apples-to-apples quote across highly rated carriers helps avoid lazy or biased recommendations that may cost you long-term income.   "With annuities, you're buying it for the contractual guarantees.

A braita establishes the laws of a needle found in the thickness of the beit hakosot, ruling that a single-sided penetration is kosher while a complete perforation renders the animal a treifa. The presence of a drop of blood or a scab determines if the injury occurred before shechita. Internal organ crushing (risuk evarim) caused by falls is a treifa according to the Mishna. Rav Huna rules that an animal left on a roof and subsequently found below is not assumed to have crushed organs, a principle the Gemara applies to a practical case involving Ravina's goat. Addressing a sheep with dragging hind legs, Rav Yeimar and Ravina debate whether the cause is common rheumatism or a severed spinal cord. Rav Huna, Rav Menashye, and Rav further delineate which specific impacts - such as goring rams, sheep handled by thieves, or direct blows from a stick - instigate a concern for internal trauma. Rav Nachman rules that the womb protects a fetus from organ crushing during birth, and three sources are brought to attempt to prove his ruling, but all proofs are rejected. Animals falling in a slaughterhouse are similarly not suspected of risuk evarim. The Gemara outlines the physical indicators of recovery for a fallen animal, establishing when a twenty-four-hour waiting period or an internal inspection of the body cavity is required. Shmuel addresses a bird that strikes the surface of the water, ruling it valid if it swims its body length. The Gemara evaluates various impact surfaces - including garments, nets, sifted ash, and different preparations of flax - to determine whether their specific textures and density buffer a fall or cause a treifa status.

John Carpenter explained it best. We're all seated around a campfire. The storyteller says, the evil is. . .out there and points into the darkness. That's external horror. Think Jaws, The Birds, Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Now same scenario but the storyteller says the evil is. . .in here and points to us, our own hearts. That's internal horror. Think Black Swan, Psycho, Twin Peaks etc. Secret Movie Club founder.programmer Craig Hammill talks about the interesting differences and rhymes between external and internal horror movies. And how, ultimately, most great horror movies are a combination of both. 

The cultural landscape of our generation is riddled with unprecedented confusion, chaos, and dis-ease. We watch a generation feverishly medicating their pain, blinded by the sophisticated propaganda and competing ideas that pervert absolute truth across medicine, politics, and the home. Yet, the primary battleground is not external; it is waged within our very anatomy. In this episode, we utilize a precise framework to move from the frantic observation of societal symptoms to a profound education on internal liberty. By dismantling the deceptive trinity of "I want, I need, and I deserve," we map out the exact functional mechanics of how a soul falls into decay, and conversely, how it is entirely reconstituted through the power of authentic self-government under the custom-carved yoke of the Creator.Where to Find VirginiaWebsiteInstagramFacebookLinkedInDonate

S7, EP 208Special Guest: Mike PecciJoin us tonight at the Chaos Table and listen in on our conversation with award winning Director, filmmaker, writer and visual storyteller Mike Pecci.Mike is known for blending horror, science fiction, and emotionally grounded genre filmmaking with striking cinematic imagery. Classically trained in silent film directing and cinematography in New York, Pecci built his career directing commercials, music videos, and branded content before emerging as one of the most distinctive voices in independent horror cinema. His work combines old school visual storytelling with modern cinematic intensity, drawing inspiration from filmmakers like John Carpenter, Steven Spielberg, Alfred Hitchcock, and Andrei Tarkovsky.Pecci first gained major attention with his viral science fiction horror short film 12 Kilometers, a Lovecraftian nightmare inspired by the real life Kola Superdeep Borehole. The film became a cult phenomenon online, praised for its atmosphere, practical effects, sound design, and cinematic ambition. The film generated a massive grassroots following through an unconventional “you need the director's permission to watch it” release campaign, helping it spread virally throughout the horror community. Critics described the film as “what if David Lynch directed The Thing,” while audiences praised its haunting tone and immersive visual style. Since the release of 12 Kilometers, Pecci's films have screened at major genre and independent film festivals around the world, including the FilmQuest, where his short film Come Home earned him the award for Best Director. His experimental horror fashion film Metanoia, starring David Dastmalchian, received multiple festival nominations including Best Cinematography and Best Macro Short at FilmQuest, as well as nominations at the London Fashion Film Festival. Outside of narrative filmmaking, Pecci has directed over 30 music videos and commercial campaigns for artists and brands including Killswitch Engage, Meshuggah, Czarface, Bose, Fujifilm, Leica, and Samuel Adams. Pecci is also the creator and host of the long running filmmaking podcast In Love with the Process, where he interviews some of the industry's top cinematographers, directors, editors, and artists about the realities of the creative process. The show has become a respected platform within the filmmaking community for its honest conversations about art, struggle, obsession, and storytelling.Known for his visceral visual language, love of practical filmmaking, and emotionally driven horror, Mike Pecci continues to push genre storytelling into bold and unexpected territory. His work has earned a passionate cult following among filmmakers and horror fans alike, establishing him as one of the most exciting emerging voices in modern genre cinema.Mike's Links -Website - http://mikepecci.com/Podcast - http://inlovewiththeprocess.com/IG- https://www.instagram.com/mikepecci/This is a shareable podcast where a group of creatives join together to  document their creative voiceover & on-camera journeys in real time. We hope this podcast creates inspiration, stirs up a few ah-ha moments or maybe brings to the surface a feeling of "you're not alone" while navigating the creative process.

What if the thing holding you back is not the obstacle, but your inability to identify the real constraint?

They discuss internal and external constraints, self-awareness, discipline, environment, goal alignment, and the level of execution required for meaningful progress.After thousands of episodes and years of coaching, Kevin and Alan have seen the same pattern again and again. Most people either lack the awareness to see the real issue or the consistency to do what the goal requires. Better results start with better diagnosis.

Ryan Lockman is the managing partner of Horn Williamson & Collins, a mid-sized construction and commercial litigation law firm in Philadelphia and Delaware. A trial lawyer representing homeowners in residential construction defect and consumer protection disputes throughout Pennsylvania and New Jersey, Ryan has secured more than $20 million in verdicts and arbitration awards, including a $3.2 million jury verdict for homeowners in a construction defect trial. He earned his MBA from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, which informs his approach to law firm management, operational efficiency, and long-term strategic growth. Most recently, Ryan developed Construction Defect University, an AI-assisted internal training platform built using Claude Code to provide more structured onboarding and practice-specific training for attorneys and paralegals. WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT ATTORNEY TRAINING Law firms have long relied on observation-based training, with younger lawyers learning by sitting in meetings, listening to experienced attorneys talk through cases, and gradually figuring out how the work gets done. But as Ryan Lockman explains, that kind of ad hoc training only goes so far when new attorneys and paralegals need to understand the terminology, client communication expectations, and litigation process before the work starts to make sense. At Horn Williamson & Collins, Ryan started addressing that gap by creating more structure inside the firm, including team leaders, internal CLEs, and clearer benchmarks for how attorneys and paralegals should stay on top of cases and communicate with clients. From there, he built Construction Defect University, an AI-assisted internal training platform designed to give new attorneys and paralegals more practice-specific training. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge, Elise Holtzman talks with Ryan Lockman about why the old expectation that lawyers should "just figure it out" is breaking down, how structured training supports client service and talent retention, what Construction Defect University actually includes, and how he built it using Claude Code in less than 30 hours. 3:16 - Ryan's path from civil rights law to construction defect litigation 7:00 - How business school changed Ryan's approach to running a law firm 11:15 - Recognizing when an ad hoc training approach no longer works 14:37 - Why "hit the ground running" was never a reasonable expectation 16:23 - The connection between attorney training and talent retention 20:28 - Using incentives to help lawyers understand expectations 23:20 - Training team leaders to manage, mentor, and communicate 27:17 - How Ryan built an AI-assisted internal training platform 29:27 - Internal response to the platform and involving associates in the process 30:46 - What Construction Defect University includes for attorneys and paralegals 36:24 - Using AI as a substitute for hands, not brains 39:21 - Why leaders forget what new lawyers do not know Mentioned In How One Managing Partner Is Rethinking Attorney Training From the Ground Up Horn Williamson & Collins | LinkedIn Ryan Lockman on LinkedIn Claude Code Microsoft Copilot Get connected with the coaching team: hello@thelawyersedge.com The Lawyer's Edge SPONSOR FOR THIS EPISODE This episode is brought to you by the coaching team at The Lawyer's Edge, a training and coaching firm that has been focused exclusively on lawyers and law firms since 2008.

Labor shortages continue to challenge industrial companies everywhere. But there is another growing concern many leaders are now facing: How do you preserve the knowledge and experience veteran employees take with them when they retire? In this episode of Grounding AI Podcast, Donna Peterson explores how industrial companies can begin using internal GPTs and AI systems to capture employee expertise, preserve institutional knowledge, and help newer employees learn faster. AI will not solve labor shortages overnight. But AI can help organizations protect decades of experience, improve onboarding, and give younger employees faster access to trusted internal knowledge. In this episode you'll learn: • What internal GPTs are and how companies can use them • How AI can preserve veteran employee expertise before retirement • Ways newer employees can learn faster using AI tools • Questions leaders should ask before building internal AI systems • How industrial companies can use AI without sacrificing authenticity The companies that use AI strategically will strengthen teams, improve knowledge transfer, and prepare the next generation of employees for long-term success.

Your nine-to-five pays the bills, but it doesn't define your career, and if you think it does, that might be the thing holding you back. This week, I sit down with a lead product designer, community builder, and all-around multi-hyphenate to talk about owning your career before someone else does.What happens to your sense of identity when the job goes away? Have you built anything outside of it that would survive?My guest this week is Frank Bach, a lead product designer who's worked at places like Instagram, DoorDash, and Headspace. But honestly, the resume might be the least interesting thing about Frank. He also runs the LA Design and Dev community, teaches courses, fronts a hardcore band called Monk, and runs his own e-commerce shop, Sunshine Shop. Frank is someone who has clearly figured out that a career worth having doesn't fit neatly inside one little box.We get into a lot in this conversation, like the danger of tying your self-worth to a company name, why “personal brand” feels so gross to so many designers, and what it actually looks like to cultivate what you're known for without becoming a full-time content creator. Frank has a really practical way of thinking about all of this: treat your full-time job more like a freelance engagement, stay in “maintenance mode” when life demands it, and remember that your manager is thinking about their own promotion, not yours.We also talk about the other side of having a lot going on: how to decide when something's run its course versus when you just need a breather, how to balance side projects without letting them eat your life, and why starting something messy is always better than waiting for the perfect moment. If you've ever felt like your career is just happening to you, this one's worth a listen.Topics:• 03:20 - How Frank got into design and the multi-hyphenate mindset• 04:20 - The danger of tying your self-worth to a company name• 05:05 - Treating your full-time job like a freelance contract• 06:25 - The upside of big brand names on your resume• 07:05 - What happens to colleagues who lean too hard on “ex-Google, ex-Meta”• 08:17 - Why personal brand feels gross to so many designers• 09:35 - Personal brand isn't just posting on LinkedIn• 11:10 - Being memorable: your look, your setup, your presence• 13:40 - The Instagram hiring story: 15 years of showing up paid off• 14:45 - Internal brand: the designers who are legends without being online• 15:37 - Maintenance mode: you don't have to be 100% all the time• 19:38 - Does your day job have to fill your creative cup?• 21:05 - How side projects made Frank more valuable at work• 24:45 - How to have the side project conversation with your manager• 28:40 - How Frank stays consistent with so many things going on• 29:15 - The minimum viable version: where to start if you have nothing• 30:19 - Knowing when to cut something loose• 33:57 - Hiatus vs. done: how to tell the difference• 42:31 - Closing advice: you're in the driver's seatHelpful Links:• Connect with Frank on LinkedIn• Listen to Monk• Sunshine Shop—Thanks for listening!

Charlie Birney was way ahead of the curve when he became an early adopter of podcasting in 2012. His love of listening to and telling stories through this platform made the years of explaining to friends and family how to access them on an iPhone worthwhile. He started Launch Podcasts in 2014, and its purpose was not what you might expect. He was not interested in growing the audience or monetizing the show. Instead Launch Podcasts was a tool for speaking directly to the group of people, previously unconnected, in a co-working space they shared. Charlie had a vision for internal podcasting that transcends sectors and issue areas. Uber uses them, for instance, to communicate rules and policy updates to a massive and remote workforce. We talk about the possibilities that internal podcasting holds for nonprofits that want to mirror their stated values inside of their organizations. An episode could feature frontline staff explaining what they need to be effective in this challenging environment. Another could prepare board members to use their connections in support of policy goals that advance the organization's mission. The possibilities are endless and the results can be powerful.

Welcome Graham fam! We are so glad you could watch Sunday morning online with us.

Last week we talked about the physical things that Satan will tempt you with, and today we are talking about the internal things that Satan comes at us with. Scripture* Matthew 4:1-11* Acts 20:29-30* Galatians 1:10* Deuteronomy 6:14-18 Sermon Points* Satan is no respecter of holy places!* Satan will double down on your identity!* All of us are tempted to take it for granted! ClosingWe are not to test God by disobeying him and testing his patience or grace with us. That is very unwise as we never know when it will run out. However, we are invited to test him as he promises us good things, such as in giving in Malachi 3:10. God invites us to obey him. He never invites disobedience!

Tal Fortgang discusses the "Scalian revolution" that shifted the Supreme Court toward judicial restraint. He notes that while Scalia faced a hostile press and "nasty" internal criticism from colleagues like Harry Blackmun, his ideas eventually prevailed. Fortgang also observes that the modern partisan venom in confirmation hearings began during Scalia's era with the contentious treatment of Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas. (12)1930

Ken and Anthony dissect Deshaun Watson's first press conference in 20 months, zeroing in on his cryptic "internal conversations" comment that has fans wondering if he's already been promised the starting job. The guys debate whether Shedeur Sanders has ever truly faced real competition in his life, and why Ken still believes starting Watson early could actually be better for Shedeur's long-term development. Plus, reports that Todd Monken lost his voice screaming at Shedeur in practice raise new questions ahead of Mary Kay Cabot joining the show at 8:20.

Joseph Sternberg explains China's reform of the Hukou residency system, which has limited internal migration since the 1950s.

1. Jill Biden and President Joe Biden Jill Biden’s remarks about President Biden’s debate performance. She feared he may have been having a stroke, arguing that: Her actions afterward (campaign event, public praise, restaurant visit) contradict that concern. This suggests either exaggeration or dishonesty. Claims that President Biden experienced cognitive decline. Allegations that political leaders and media knowingly concealed this. Media organizations and Democratic officials were aware of Biden’s alleged condition. There was a coordinated effort to hide or minimize it. They frame this as an example of: Political power being prioritized over transparency. A broader credibility problem in U.S. politics. 2.
