Federal Tech Podcast: Listen and learn how successful companies get federal contracts
Taylor Johnston, President of the Institute of Applied Engineering at the University of South Florida, discussed a secure research environment developed with AWS and the federal government. This initiative allows researchers to work with classified information, progressing from unclassified to top-secret levels. The partnership uses AWS GovCloud for multi-domain, multi-accessible research. Many organizations train models on unclassified data, but classified data has different nuances. Analysts need to build that model in IL6 using those data sets. Johnston highlighted the university's proximity to key military commands and its results-based research, emphasizing the importance of human performance and AI in military applications. During the interview, Johnston observed that AI is an enabler for productivity, not a job stealer. The university aims to bridge gaps among academia, the defense industrial base, and venture capital, helping enhance operational capabilities.

Spring Cleaning – Dallas StarsThe Dallas Stars entered the 2025-26 season with Stanley Cup expectations after three consecutive trips to the Western Conference Final and four straight 100-point seasons. Instead, Dallas suffered another painful postseason disappointment, falling to the Minnesota Wild in six games during the opening round. Neil Smith and Vic Morren examine the Stars' dramatic swings in performance, the devastating injuries that depleted their lineup, and the difficult decisions awaiting General Manager Jim Nill as he attempts to extend the championship window of one of the NHL's most talented—but increasingly veteran—teams.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00:00] The Dallas Stars finish second in the Central Division before losing to Minnesota in six games during the opening round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Neil and Vic discuss the consistently high expectations surrounding a team that has averaged more than 107 points over the last five full seasons.[00:01:00] The conversation turns to Dallas' repeated playoff disappointments after three consecutive trips to the Western Conference Final. Glen Gulutzan returned for his second stint behind the Stars' bench, following a long line of respected coaches who were also unable to lead the organization back to the Stanley Cup Final.[00:01:45] Neil explains how the strength of the Central Division and the NHL's current playoff format creates an extremely difficult opening-round matchup for any team finishing second or third. Dallas knew for months that Minnesota would likely be its opponent, but still could not find a way through one of the league's deepest teams.[00:02:00] Vic reviews the Stars' wildly inconsistent regular season. Dallas followed a 14-1-2 stretch with a 2-6-4 slide, then produced a 14-0-1 run that included 10 consecutive victories before struggling again late in the year. The panel discusses why the Stars can look unbeatable at their best and completely vulnerable when their game disappears.[00:03:00] Dallas' recent playoff history is placed under the microscope. The Stars surrendered a 2-1 series lead against Edmonton in 2024, struggled offensively against the Oilers again in 2025, and then lost another 2-1 series advantage against Minnesota after allowing a late lead to slip away in Game 4.[00:04:00] Jason Robertson and Wyatt Johnston each score 45 goals, but the offense drops sharply after the two young stars. Mikko Rantanen is revealed to have suffered a torn MCL during the Olympics, limiting his effectiveness after returning for the final 10 games of the regular season.[00:05:00] The Stars' extensive injury list is examined. Tyler Seguin suffers a season-ending torn ACL, Roope Hintz tears his hamstring shortly after returning from the Olympics, while Miro Heiskanen, Radek Faksa, Michael Bunting, and Nils Lundkvist also deal with significant injuries during the playoff push.[00:06:00] Neil and Vic debate how much the injuries contributed to the first-round exit. While every playoff team deals with health issues, Dallas lost several high-impact players whose absence significantly reduced the club's offensive depth and ability to compete with Minnesota.[00:07:00] Attention shifts to the offseason facing three-time General Manager of the Year Jim Nill. Dallas owns only five selections in the 2026 NHL Draft, with no picks in the first or third rounds after aggressively trading future assets to acquire veteran help.[00:07:45] The Stars enter the offseason above the projected salary cap before the July reset. Their unrestricted free agents include captain Jamie Benn, Michael Bunting, Adam Erne, Nathan Bastian, Alex Petrovic, and Kyle Capobianco.[00:08:00] Jason Robertson headlines Dallas' restricted free agent class after another elite goal-scoring season. Neil describes Robertson as one of the NHL's premier natural finishers and expects his next contract to become one of the largest and most important negotiations of Jim Nill's tenure.[00:09:00] The discussion turns to the aging portion of the Stars' core. While Robertson and Johnston remain young franchise pillars, longtime veterans Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin are approaching the final stages of their careers, forcing Dallas to consider when and how to begin retooling the roster.[00:10:00] The episode concludes with a difficult question surrounding Jamie Benn's future. Neil praises Benn's leadership, toughness, and lasting impact as captain, but acknowledges that Jim Nill must eventually decide whether to continue with the veteran core or transition the team toward a new generation of leadership.
Case 37, A monk asked Jōshū, “What is the meaning of Bodhidharma's coming to China?” Jōshū replied, “The oak tree in the garden.” Case 5, titled “Kyōgen's Man Up a Tree.” Kyōgen said: “It's like a man up a tree, hanging from a branch by his mouth. His hands can't grasp a bough, his feet can't touch the trunk. Another man comes and asks from below, ‘What is the meaning of Bodhidharma's coming from the West?' If he doesn't answer, he evades his duty. If he answers, he falls and dies. What must he do?”
Stijn Schmitz welcomes Rory Johnston to the show. Rory Johnston is a Commodity Market Research Specializing in Oil and Gas. Johnston describes an unprecedented period of volatility in oil markets, where the supply-demand balance swung radically within a single month. Following a ceasefire in the Strait of Hormuz, a surge of previously stranded tankers created a temporary mini-glut, flipping market structures from severe backwardation into contango. However, this glut proved fleeting as inbound empty tankers, initially driven by the most risk-tolerant owners, have dried up, leaving Gulf loadings constrained by available shipping capacity. Consequently, supply is tightening aggressively again. The most significant factor absorbing the supply shock is China, which swung its crude imports down by five million barrels per day without clear economic damage domestically. Johnston explores speculative explanations, including massive refined product stock releases, a coal-to-petrochemical feedstock switch, or a geopolitical understanding with the US. He also suggests China may be using the crisis as a successful dry run for weathering a potential blockade in a Taiwan conflict scenario. This swing, totaling roughly half a billion barrels, dwarfs the collective releases from IEA member states. Beyond crude, the refined products market, particularly diesel, is critically tight. Diesel crack spreads have soared to staggering levels, driven by drone attacks damaging Russian refineries, prior damage in the Middle East, and China slashing product exports. Johnston clarifies that strategic petroleum reserves function as a supply boost, not passive inventory, and that operational tank minimums at hubs like Cushing primarily affect regional price differentials to discourage exports, not trigger infinite crude spikes. He concludes that the overriding vulnerability is refining capacity, which is easy to target and hard to defend, making North American facilities a potentially valuable geopolitical safe haven in the current drone warfare era.

The hosts opened by celebrating 2027 quarterback commit Trae Taylor's rise to five-star status, praising both his Elite 11 performance and his dedication to recruiting future Huskers. They also discussed Nebraska adding running back Tikey Hayes, viewing the transfer as valuable depth for the backfield while acknowledging the uncertainty surrounding Mekhi Nelson's availability.The emotional centerpiece of the show was the return of site founder Jon Johnston following his recent stroke. Johnston shared the story of suffering the medical emergency while visiting Las Vegas, undergoing an emergency thrombectomy, and beginning a challenging rehabilitation process. Despite lingering fatigue and speech difficulties, he maintained his trademark humor, describing surreal hospital experiences, discussing his recovery, and expressing optimism about making occasional appearances on future live shows. The hosts warmly welcomed him back and encouraged listeners with his positive attitude and determination.Later, the panel debated Michigan's latest off-field issues before transitioning into a fun segment pairing every Big Ten football program with a song reflecting its personality. The creative exercise produced humorous comparisons, nostalgic music references, and spirited discussion, culminating with each host selecting a song for Nebraska that reflected the program's proud history, frustrating recent struggles, and enduring optimism. The episode concluded with appreciation for the fan community and the traditional “Go Big Red” signoff.

NEGOTIATING WITH TRUMP: LESSONS ON POWER, INFLUENCE, AND DEALING WITH EXTREME BARGAINERS by PETER D. JOHNSTON https://www.amazon.com/dp/0980942179 WHAT MAKES DONALD TRUMP TICK? Is the world negotiating with a madman—or a genius? Is his chaotic approach to influence instinct-driven, or is it a calculated strategy? And did the co-author of The Art of the Deal secure a second presidency because of his negotiation style, or in spite of it? To endure and flourish in the era of the 47th president, we need more than political commentary. We need a playbook—one that helps us see patterns and analyze for ourselves what's going on, while empowering us to excel in our own negotiations. In Negotiating with Trump, Peter D. Johnston applies the objective lens of a negotiation expert to decode President Trump's tactics. Johnston exposes the mechanics of Trump's leverage, digging into his personality profile, his mastery of our psychological tendencies, and the coalition building that drives his agenda. From the boardroom and the international stage to your living room, this is a systematic and entertaining examination of what works, what fails, and what we can learn from Trump's extreme approaches to negotiation. Whether you are closing a business deal, negotiating conflicts at home, or hoping to influence America’s next steps as a nation, this book will force you to rethink what you know about power, persuasion, and the art of the deal. About the author Peter D. Johnston is an international negotiation expert, a leading advisor, thinker, practitioner, and negotiation speaker. His bestselling book, “Negotiating with Giants,” relays lessons from his advisory work, research, and history's most difficult negotiations, ranging from trade deals and hostage-takings to the achievement of Magna Carta. He is also the author of “Negotiating with Trump” (June 2026) and the award-winning novel, “Weapons of Peace” (2019). His negotiation results have been formally recognized by the US Government for their positive economic and social impact, domestically and abroad. He is the Managing Director of Negotiation Advice International (NAI).

Oil market expert Rory Johnston provides a comprehensive analysis of the current global energy landscape and recent supply disruptions. He examines the Strait of Hormuz crisis, the impact of Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian refineries, and the surprising resilience of the market due to China’s massive reduction in crude imports. The discussion explores potential geopolitical shifts, such as the UAE's departure from OPEC and Iran's attempts to control vital shipping lanes. Ultimately, Johnston highlights a transition toward a more interventionist era where nations must prioritize energy sovereignty and infrastructure diversification to survive future shocks.

The Kathryn Johnston case required more than outrage over what happened. It required careful legal work, coordinated effort and a willingness to uncover the facts. In this clip, Nick Moraitakis explains how the attorneys representing Ms. Johnston's family worked together, divided up the issues and handled the many depositions needed to build the case. Robin Frazer Clark also notes the larger impact of that work. The case not only resulted in a settlement for the family, it helped bring attention to serious problems within the Atlanta Police Department's Red Dog Unit and contributed to broader reform. This clip highlights the role civil litigation can play in uncovering truth, holding institutions accountable and helping prevent injustice from being ignored.

Is the city's new $5 downtown parking program worth it to Denverites? After Mayor Mike Johnston came on the show last week to talk up his grand new plan to get people downtown, our dear listeners had a lot of thoughts and feelings about it. Jill Locantore, executive director of the Denver Streets Partnership, took particular issue with Johnston's approach to the topic of drinking and driving – she joins host Bree Davies to share her perspective on the mayor's new parking plan and some big ideas to fix Denver's problems with car storage. Jill and Bree also discuss the Glendale City Council's “no build” vote on bus rapid transit on Colorado Boulevard, the state of the Denver Deserves Sidewalks initiative, and more. Bree mentioned Jill's last appearance on the pod, when they discussed the idea of establishing parking benefits districts. Jill mentioned Families for Safe Streets' recent recommendation for regulations on autonomous vehicles. Bree also talked about the ballot measure Denverites passed to create funding to fix, build, and replace sidewalks on a recent episode of Your City Could Be Better, City Cast's national podcast!

This week on Sunday Nights with Bill Crews, we explore Australia's oldest living culture, revisit one of the nation's most challenging public health crises, and uncover the hidden family stories that can shape generations. As Australia marks NAIDOC Week, Bill is joined by Indigenous author, filmmaker and traditional knowledge holder Victor Steffensen to discuss his acclaimed book The Knowledge. Together they explore the enduring wisdom of Aboriginal culture, what it truly means to care for Country, the importance of cultural burning, and why traditional knowledge remains just as relevant today as it has been for tens of thousands of years. It's a thoughtful conversation about connection, respect, and the lessons that can help build a stronger future for both people and the land. Bill also speaks with acclaimed Australian author GS Johnston about his powerful new novel For a Moment More, which returns to Sydney's HIV/AIDS crisis during the early 1990s. Drawing on his own experiences as a pharmacist on Oxford Street at the height of the epidemic, Johnston reflects on the fear, stigma, grief and remarkable resilience that defined a generation. They discuss how far Australia has come in the treatment of HIV, why these stories must continue to be told, and what younger Australians can learn from this pivotal chapter in our recent history. Plus, Bill sits down with award-winning Australian novelist Sue Woolfe to discuss her moving new novel The Girl Who Climbed on Rooves. Inspired by the extraordinary discovery that her mother had concealed a childhood spent in an abusive orphanage, Sue explores family secrets, trauma, memory and the emotional truths that fiction can reveal. It's a deeply personal conversation about the stories families keep hidden, the lasting impact of childhood experiences, and the healing power of storytelling. Three fascinating conversations that examine Australia's past, challenge us to think differently about the present, and offer hope for the future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Michael Vorenberg recounts how, following Lincoln's assassination, William T. Sherman met Joseph Johnston at Bennett Place to negotiate a surrender. Sherman offered terms more generous than Grant's, including allowing Southerners to keep weapons in armories to prevent guerrilla warfare. However, the Washington cabinet rejected these terms as too lenient. (10)1865 RICHMOND

Aaron Johnston has spent the last 26 seasons building South Dakota State University into one of the premier mid-major programs in women's college basketball. Under his leadership, the Jackrabbits have dominated the Summit League, consistently winning conference championships and earning NCAA Tournament berths. Most recently, SDSU has reached the NCAA Tournament in four consecutive seasons, continuing a standard of excellence that has made the Jackrabbits the benchmark for success in the conference.One of the most remarkable aspects of Johnston's career is that he successfully guided the program through its transition from Division II to Division I without missing a beat. While many programs struggle through that process, the Jackrabbits quickly established themselves as contenders at the Division I level. Johnston has also intentionally challenged his teams with demanding Power Four non-conference schedules, believing those early-season tests prepare his players to compete in March and elevate the program into the national conversation year after year.As South Dakota State enters a new chapter following the departure of star Brooklyn Meyer, plenty of attention will be on how the Jackrabbits respond. Even with key pieces to replace, Johnston's track record suggests the expectations won't change. With a culture built on player development, consistency, and championship habits, South Dakota State is poised to remain one of the nation's top mid-major programs and a team capable of making noise in the NCAA Tournament every season.Available wherever you get your podcasts.

When Princeton University Professor Mark Johnston's daughter was 18 months old, she stood on a beach with what he describes as a "quizzical philosophical look on her face, as if she was thinking, 'Is this my only life?'"That question is the heart of Johnston's talk at UC Berkeley this past March, where he revisits a topic he wrote about two decades ago. Back then, he believed that the hope for an afterlife was impossible. But now, he has changed his mind. "Today, I want to show why I was wrong," says Johnston, author of the 2010 book Surviving Death. "That decent and comprehensible hope is not dashed by such ontological considerations. Even if we are essentially embodied somehow or other, our present embodiments may not be our only embodiments.”In this Berkeley Talks episode, Johnston explores through a secular lens how near-death experiences fail to provide decisive proof of a detached soul, how reductive materialism — the view that everything about the mind can ultimately be explained in physical terms — creates absurd ethical contradictions, and how viewing ourselves as "embodied wills" leaves open the possibility of a life to come.This talk took place on March 11, and was part of the Foerster Lectures on the Immortality of the Soul sponsored by Berkeley Graduate Lectures.

Recorded live at the 2026 Iowa Bandmasters Association conference, Alan and Steve sit down with conductor and educator Cynthia Johnston Turner for a candid conversation about what really matters in the band room. Cynthia unpacks how she moved from a fear‑ and product‑driven rehearsal culture to one centered on psychological safety, inclusion, and community—without lowering musical standards. She shares practical ideas for engaging 21st‑century learners, balancing “old school” structure with modern expectations, setting healthy boundaries with students, and bringing improvisation and creativity into the concert band setting through clear rules and low‑risk experiments. Band directors at all levels will find honest reflection, concrete strategies, and permission to separate their self‑worth from how the ensemble sounds.

On this week's episode of True Crime New England, Katie and Liz jump in their time machine and go all the way back to the 1840's in Rhode Island to discuss the murder of Amasa Sprague. Hailing from a very prominent and wealthy family, Amasa and his brother, William, grew their success with a massive mill franchise and political positions. On New Year's Eve of 1843, Amasa was doing his nightly check of the livestock on his nearby farm in Johnston when he was shot and then beaten to death with a gun. At the time, the area was full of Irish immigrants who were constantly being treated poorly due to their heritage. Very quickly, a family of Irish brothers were found to be at fault for the murder despite the lack of evidence.
