Podcast appearances and mentions of John Bradshaw

What if the real AI race in 2026 isn't about building bigger models, but about where decisions are made, how fast they happen, and whether they deliver measurable value? In this episode, I'm joined by John Bradshaw, Director of Cloud Computing Technology and Strategy at Akamai, to unpack his predictions for the next phase of cloud, AI inference, and the economics that will shape enterprise technology over the next 12 months. As organizations move beyond experimentation, John explains why the boardroom conversation has shifted from capability to return on investment, and how spiraling compute demands are forcing leaders to rethink the balance between performance, cost, and innovation. We explore why this new financial scrutiny is not slowing AI adoption, but refining it. John shares how inefficient GPU workflows, centralized inference, and poorly aligned architectures are being challenged by a more disciplined approach that pushes intelligence closer to the edge. This shift is not only about latency and performance. It is about building scalable, value-driven platforms that can support real-time decision-making, agentic workloads, and global user experiences without breaking traditional IT budgets. Trust is another major theme throughout our conversation. From the rise of everyday AI agents that quietly handle routine tasks to the growing importance of secure, resilient inference pipelines, John outlines how low-latency edge infrastructure, local processing, and hybrid cloud models will redefine reliability for both enterprises and consumers. We also discuss the smart home backlash following recent outages, and why the next generation of connected products will be designed to work even when the network does not. The episode also looks at the future of streaming, where consolidation, intelligent content delivery, and AI-driven personalization are reshaping both the user experience and the economics behind the platforms. Behind the scenes, orchestration is emerging as a defining capability, with multiple models and services working together to validate outputs, reduce hallucinations, and create more dependable AI systems. This is a conversation about moving from possibility to production, from experimentation to accountability, and from centralized architectures to distributed intelligence. So as AI becomes embedded in every workflow and every customer interaction, will the winners be the companies with the biggest models, or the ones that know exactly where their AI should live, how it should be orchestrated, and how it proves its value every single day?

Welcome to a new episode of The Way Out Is In: The Zen Art of Living, a podcast series mirroring Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's deep teachings of Buddhist philosophy: a simple yet profound methodology for dealing with our suffering, and for creating more happiness and joy in our lives. In this installment, Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and leadership coach Jo Confino explore the lifelong journey of self-forgiveness and how to forgive ourselves. How do we find the capacity to let go of past hurts and come into the fullness of our lives?  The conversation also touches upon themes like self-love, self-compassion, community, spiritual growth, impermanence, the coexistence of suffering and happiness, and the importance of ongoing practice. Brother Phap Huu discusses the Buddhist perspective of the Dharma threading through time, embracing past, present, and future; how loving oneself begins with recognizing and accepting one's stories and scars; the importance of treating oneself with kindness and compassion; acknowledging unskillful actions; practicing with the inner child; and much more. In addition, personal stories shared by the presenters illustrate how forgiveness and self-love evolve over time, and that forgiving oneself is vital for genuine compassion and service. The episode concludes with aspirations for the new year.

We’re constantly changing. The Buddha has said that we cannot bathe in the same river twice. When we bathe in that river, the river is not the same and we are not the same.” “The Buddha says that suffering is made of non-suffering elements – and that means you have happiness inside.” “What I’ve learned from my journey is that healing is always a verb.” “There is no way to healing; healing is the way.” “Our practice of listening is very important. When we say we have to learn to listen, listen not to respond, but just to listen. Listen to acknowledge, accept, and witness.” “It’s important to be in the present moment, but it's also important to have an aspiration to bring into the present moment – not to see in the future, but to see coming alive right now.”

Most men carry shame. But they don't talk about it—especially when it comes to sex.They were raised to be "good boys," "nice guys," and "respectful partners"... but underneath that, many are dealing with something toxic: sexual shame. It wrecks their confidence. It kills their desire. And it silently poisons their relationships.In this video, I break down how sexual shame develops in men, how it fuels codependency and dead bedrooms, and what it takes to finally own who you are as a man—without guilt, without apology.

On May 8, 2016, John Bradshaw died of heart failure at the age of 82. He is survived by his wife and two children.
