For their regular catch-up, Oto spoke to the Green Party's Ricardo Menéndez March the party's new emissions reduction plan. He spoke to Professor Guhan Gunasekara - an Associate Professor of Commercial Law at the University of Auckland, to discuss an independent evaluation of the trial usage of facial recognition technology in security cameras at Foodstuffs outlets. And he spoke to Nicola Gaston - A professor in the department of Physics at the University of Auckland, to discuss cuts to humanities and social science programs in the Marsden fund. Sasha spoke to Dr Julie Douglas, National President of the Tertiary Education Union, about the recent cuts to humanities and social sciences from the Marsden Fund. And he spoke to Thomas Dowling, Environment Lecturer and a co-lead on a new earth observation lab launched in collaboration with the University of Auckland.
Just one week ago, science, innovation and technology Minister Judith Collins announced cuts to the Marsden Fund, specifically for humanities and social sciences, reinforcing the government's clear initiative to focus on rebuilding the economy and putting business first. Following this announcement came major backlash from professors, researchers and mainstream news, which claim to shrink the already small percentage of allocated funds towards humanities to an even smaller number. The cuts will also disproportionately affect Maori researchers, cutting the existing 13% of funded research to a proposed 5.5%. Many argue that social sciences and humanities are important for understanding societies' and the science which will be applied to it. However, another viewpoint to consider is the millions of taxpayer money which has been going to silly projects, something which needs to be discussed in further detail. So Sasha spoke to Dr Julie Douglas, National President of the Tertiary Education Union, who believes that the government is making a shortsighted decision for cutting humanities and social sciences from the Marsden Fund.

The country's three biggest education unions have joined forces to put education funding on the political agenda this election campaign. A new BERL report has found public spending per student in 2019 was nearly 25 percent lower than the OECD average. Tertiary Education Union National President Julie Douglas says more investment would allow better decisions about the sort of system we want.

A Tertiary Education Commission briefing shows it believes Te Pukenga's plans to cut 400 jobs does not go far enough. Tertiary Education Union president Julie Douglas says the report is a disgrace. She says the commission has overstepped the mark and is wrong to suggest that education must be 'profitable'. She spoke to Corin Dann.
The Tertiary Education Union is welcoming the $128 million cash injection to the struggling sector. Split over the next two years, it'll increase tuition subsidies by an extra four percent at degree-level and above. The Government is also promising to review the funding system for universities. Union National President Julie Douglas is hopeful the boost will allow Vice-Chancellors at Otago and Victoria universities to reconsider job cut proposals. She says the universities have a level of autonomy over what to spend it on, but the money wasn't given for a new building and stems from a long union campaign.

Some universities are facing tough times with falling enrollments and job cuts looming. Kathryn speaks to Chris Whelan the Executive director of Universities New Zealand and Dr Julie Douglas president of the Tertiary Education Union about what's happening in the university sector.
Fears slashing jobs at Victoria University jobs could force tertiary sector standards to slip. The Wellington university is proposing to cut up to 260 jobs, in the face of a $33 million deficit. Tertiary Education Union National President Julie Douglas, says the cuts are no good. "What our focus is on is the quality output of good, well-educated graduates. And I think what we're risking here is the standard of our public education sector." Otago University this year announced similar plans for large-scale redundancies and mega-polytech Te Pukenga also expects job losses. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Julie Douglas is the president and CEO of Dealer Pay LLC, a company that provides seamless, integrated payment processing and advanced software solutions to the automotive industry. She's also known as the "Sales Lady Extraordinaire." Today, Julie joins Kaylee to discuss her experience founding the company over 9 years ago, as well as the challenges they faced when first scaling the company. Customers value payment convenience when making purchases. Customers now have more payment options than ever before thanks to technological advancements. Dealer Pay began as a payments provider, allowing customers to accept credit cards and checks while also providing reporting. It quickly became apparent to Julie and her team that there was a need for a full point-of-sale solution for dealerships. With the rise of technology, companies are now able to streamline their businesses through the use of tools like Dealer Pay. This allows them to bill customers once the parts have been delivered. Furthermore, their new mobile app allows parts managers to take payment as a card-present transaction in front of the customer. This convenience factor is a huge time saver for parts managers. With the help of tools like this, businesses are able to save time and money while providing a better experience for their customers.

They think about all the different aspects of being an entrepreneur, from the emotional to the tactical journey, and create podcasts that speak to those experiences. This helps their listeners connect with the brand on a deeper level without feeling like they're being sold to.Research and speak to your customers to understand how to position your podcast in a way that brings value to them.Run focus groups, get on the phone with customers, and collect survey responses.

By doing so, you'll know exactly how to position your podcast in a way that inspires them and helps them through any challenges they face.The purpose of a podcast isn't to Trojan Horse your company out there.The purpose is to create content that is meaningful and sincere. Your audience can see right through any marketing play you might throw at them by creating a branded podcast. In order to create a meaningful and emotional connection with the audience, think about how your content helps them. How does it inspire them? How does it make them feel?Make sure your host is a stakeholder in the topic you want to cover.Don't just hire a host for the sake of hiring someone that is talented on the mic. They need to be a stakeholder, an expert, or a guide in the topic your podcast will cover. The show needs to reflect the host's own world in order for it to feel authentic to the listeners. This also helps the host know how and when to dive deeper into certain topics. When creating a podcast, think about whether it can stand for the long haul.Your podcast should be centered around a topic or concept you can execute for a long time. The reason being is it takes a while to build an audience. When you think about starting a podcast, think about what it looks like 10 years from now versus just 1 year from now. This will help you determine if you really have what it takes to grow it into a cornerstone piece of content.If you're considering running ads on your podcast, think about how it benefits your audience and customers.Rather than running ads as an opportunity to open up a revenue stream, think about how the content in those ads is going to help the listeners and potential customers. Take a page from Mailchimp and be “customer-obsessed.” When you put your listeners first, you create the trust needed to build a loyal audience and customer base.Mailchimp measures the success of the Mailchimp Presents platform by how it supports their spirit of generosity and support.Yes, they measure the analytics behind the platform. How many people visit the site, how many people consume their content, and how many of them convert to customers. But they also look at it from a holistic perspective of how is this platform helping or supporting its audience and creators.Approach podcasting from a sincere angle.Try to get to the why of what you're doing with your podcast and identity what can be useful for the audience. At the end of the day, you want it to be a two-way conversation between you as a host (and brand) and the audience.Mentions Mailchimp's ad on Serial The Jump Bloom Season Hands on a Hardbody Going Through It Pineapple Street Media Little Everywhere Call Paul All in a Day's Work

In this classic episode of Stuff to Blow Your Mind, Robert Lamb and Julie Douglas explore the history of the illness and its cultural effects, from powdered wigs and false noses to surgical advances and vampire myths.
