It has been a week for the Arizona Diamondbacks dealing with Ketel Marte’s absence, so what comes next? Can he smooth things over? Also, what will the Diamondbacks do with their injured rotation after the Michael Soroka news. That and more on the pennant chase from Alex Weiner and Dave Burns.

In this episode, Turner Construction's Drew Kerr, Vice President and General Manager of xPL Offsite, explains how xPL is redefining construction through offsite manufacturing and deep supply chain integration, starting with data centers and expanding into sectors like semiconductors, healthcare, and industrial facilities. He contrasts traditional, fragmented construction with xPL's unified model that centralizes manufacturing, supply chain, and field installation to handle unprecedented demand and labor shortages. Using a rapid 30MW data center deployment as a case study, Drew shows how close coordination, prefabrication, and early procurement decisions enabled timelines that would be impossible under conventional methods. He also discusses the limits of true “manufacturing” in construction today, xPL's use of automation and robotics, and why he believes modularization will become the dominant way we build in the next century. Highlights from their conversation include: Drew's Background at Turner and Personal Story (0:54) What xPL Offsite Does and Why It Was Created (2:02) How Exponential Party Logistics Reimagines Construction Supply Chains (4:15) Industrial Renaissance, Data Centers, and Physical Economy Bottlenecks (7:25) Why Offsite Construction Is Not Yet True Manufacturing (8:23) Case Study: 30MW “Emergency” Data Center Deployment (10:36) How Integrated Teams Beat Traditional Construction Timelines (11:06) Labor Shortage, Skilled Trades, and Bringing Work to Workers (13:25) Role of Automation, Robotics, and Smart Factory Concepts (15:50) Expanding Beyond Data Centers Into Healthcare, Sports, and Industrial (19:38) Future of Construction and Shift to Modularized Building Models (21:51) Global Modularization Vision for Turner and ACS (24:10) Closing Thoughts and Episode Wrap-Up (25:29) Dynamo Ventures is a venture firm backing founders upgrading the physical economy.

What do you do when the technology arrives faster than the plan you wrote for it?In this episode of Ethics and Innovation by Oxford+ brought to you by Equinox, host Susannah de Jager speaks with Professor Anne Trefethen, Professor of Scientific Computing at the University of Oxford and Trustee of the Alan Turing Institute, about leading a university through the arrival of generative AI. Oxford published its digital strategy in 2022, weeks before ChatGPT appeared, and Anne explains why it then took courage to stop, rethink planned investments and add the governance she had hoped to avoid.The conversation moves from student adoption and equal access to what national resilience now means: sovereign capability, models we can trust because we know what they were trained on, and enough trained people to use them well. It lands in the middle of a live policy push, with the UK government expanding free AI training to reach 10 million workers by 2030.Anne also makes the case for optimism, and for changing how we prepare graduates as entry-level work shifts.

What if your real estate videos could bring you hot leads, closed deals, and clients who already feel like they know you before they ever call? In this episode, we break down how YouTube for real estate can help agents generate leads without relying on cold calls, door knocking, postcards, or expensive ads. You'll hear from Heidi Hines, a real estate agent with nearly 30 years of experience, who started making real estate videos only recently and quickly began seeing results.Heidi shares how she built her YouTube channel, generated 76 real estate leads, closed three deals, and had one video reach more than 95,000 views. She also explains what it is like to get real estate leads from people moving into a new market, why YouTube leads can feel much warmer than traditional leads, and how she is now referring business to other agents because the leads are coming in faster than she can handle them.If you are new to YouTube, this conversation shows why you do not need to be a professional video creator to get started. You'll learn why consistency matters, how real estate videos can help people get to know you, why personality can matter more than having the perfect video, and how YouTube can become a simple part of your real estate prospecting strategy.======Learn how to get Sellers from Your YouTube Channel: https://listingsleadmachine.com/optinSchedule a Call With Us to Discuss Partnering With eXp - https://bit.ly/PassiveProspectingPartnershipHere's the link to try a free trial of Channel Studio: https://linkless.io/egH8eaGet Our New Book - https://bit.ly/PassiveProspectingBookJoin Our Community for Free!: https://join.passiveprospecting.com/?utm_source=podcast

What feels normal on the outside can quietly erode your interior life, leaving you depleted, distracted, and disconnected from God in ways that are hard to name.In this highlight from our conversation (https://youtu.be/l9ewVLxh0vI?si=zBB0SfJkAPLx9xjN), host Jason Daye sits down with John Eldredge to explore why the pace of modern life is so dangerous to the soul. What often looks like faithfulness and responsibility can slowly become a rhythm that your soul simply cannot keep up with.Together, John and Jason discuss:Why the pace of modern ministry life is unsustainable for the soulHow constant pressure, digital overload, and urgency reshape your inner lifeWhy exhaustion is often deeper than physical fatigueThe role of beauty, rest, and quiet in restoring your humanityWhy emotional honesty is essential for spiritual vitalityHow slowing down becomes an act of trust, not weaknessPractical ways to create space for your soul to breathe againThis episode will resonate deeply with pastors and ministry leaders who feel stretched thin but cannot seem to slow down. It offers a clear and hopeful invitation to recover a healthier pace and rediscover a grounded, life-giving relationship with God.Looking to dig more deeply into this topic and conversation?

Summary Today Marc is chattin' with Richa Kaul, founder and CEO of an AI-based compliance automation platform. The conversation centered on how AI is reshaping enterprise governance, risk, and compliance (GRC), especially by helping organizations handle growing complexity without simply adding more headcount. The discussion quickly focused on how compliance teams can use automation and AI to streamline vendor risk, regulatory requirements, and other time-consuming workflows. Richa explained that his approach starts by separating what truly requires human judgment from what can be automated. A major theme was the mismatch between the speed of modern risk and the pace at which organizations can hire. Richa argued that risk is increasing faster than teams can scale, making it unrealistic to solve GRC challenges by just expanding staff. Instead, she framed the real question as what work should remain with humans and what work can be handled by AI or automation. She emphasized that teams are bogged down by urgent audit prep, repetitive tasks, and reactive “fire drills,” which prevents them from focusing on strategic risk reduction. The chat then moved into visibility and granularity in risk management, particularly around privacy. Richa noted that many CISOs and GRC leaders lack sufficient visibility into their organization's risks, especially because privacy is cross-functional and touches employees, users, operations, and regulatory obligations. She said this lack of clarity makes it difficult for leaders to confidently communicate risk to boards or determine where to invest time and resources. In her view, the biggest issue is not just managing risk, but being able to see it clearly enough to act on it. Another key topic was AI governance. Richa pointed out that many companies are paying attention to AI policy at the top level, but are not doing enough to train employees at the operational level, where mistakes are most likely to happen. She described the “last mile” of AI governance as especially vulnerable, since employees may unknowingly expose proprietary information by entering sensitive data into tools like GPT. According to Richa, human behavior is often the weakest link, and effective governance requires education and training throughout the organization, not just policy statements from leadership. Their chat also touched on industry-specific risk, with healthcare highlighted as a major area of concern. Richa said healthcare compliance appears underinvested compared with financial services, even though both are highly regulated and handle highly sensitive data. She closed by offering a practical starting point for companies facing generative AI challenges: map your most important data, follow it from input to output, identify the systems it touches, and secure each step of the journey. His overall message was optimistic — that even though the risk landscape feels overwhelming, organizations have tools, platforms, and partners that can help them manage it more effectively. Key Points AI can reduce compliance burden by automating repetitive GRC tasks. Organizations can't hire fast enough to keep up with rising risk and regulatory complexity. Many leaders lack clear visibility into privacy and cross-functional risk. AI governance fails most often at the employee level, not just the policy level. Healthcare compliance is highly exposed and may be underinvested relative to its risk. Key Quotes “Risk right now is increasing at a speed and at a rate that teams cannot possibly hire to mitigate.” “It is not the question of, should teams get smaller. I think it’s a question of what work should humans be doing and what work can I do instead.” “A lot of CISOs tell me that they don’t have the visibility, or at least the granularity of visibility into their risks that they would like.” “Humans are the weakest link.” “Don’t you need to boil the ocean, but let’s look at what is your highest risk data.” About Our Guest Richa Kaul is a technology executive and Head of Product Engineering: Strategy, AI Builder, and Cloud & AI Enterprise Transformation, with 20+ years of experience leading cloud, data, and AI initiatives across Fortune 500 organizations.

How can critical thinking shape our AI use in the workplace? Large Language Models (LLMs) function as sophisticated “auto-complete” engines that predict the next most likely word based on statistical patterns rather than reasoning, understanding truth, or possessing consciousness. While there are many good uses for LLMs in daily life, their application in high-stakes and high-judgement tasks can have professional consequences. When we over-rely on LLMs at work, we risk eroding core intellectual skills, flattening diverse perspectives, and creating workplace inequalities. On this episode of Just One Q, Dominique chats with Dr. Aaron Barth, founder and president of Dialectic. They demystify the mechanics under the hood of Large Language Models (LLMs), discuss the psychological traps of ascribing intelligence to software, and share practical frameworks for using AI responsibly without sacrificing equity or human judgment in the workplace.   Keep Up with Aaron: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aaronbarthphd/ Try Learning Snippets: https://dialectic.solutions/signup Contact Us to Be a Guest on Just One Q: https://dialectic.solutions/podcast-guest

“It's a realization of my individual self, not an alienation of it.” — Keith Teare on the book he wrote with AI in a week Welcome to episode 2984 of the show. A week is certainly an age in AI time. Since last week's “Who Owns Intelligence” show, That Was The Week publisher Keith Teare has used AI to write an entire book entitled, surprise surprise, Who Owns Intelligence. No wonder, as Keith's editorial this week puts it, AI has its enemies. These enemies, Keith insists — riffing off Karl Popper's The Open Society and Its Enemies — are mostly “good people.” They are the authors, workers, and others caught in the headlights of epochal technological change. He claims to have seen the pattern before. When he opened the world's first Internet cafe in 1994, the BBC only wanted to ask him about online porn. But some enemies are less well meaning than others. Congress is considering a kill switch bill — let's call it the Kill Bill — which is backed by the frontier companies like Anthropic and OpenAI cynically seeking to set their current market dominance in stone. So might the answer be Chinese style “open source” AI as requested this week in an open letter by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang? Keith's answer is deliciously ironic. Denied walls of NVIDIA GPUs, Chinese labs learned to train cheaply by inference — distilling American frontier models through their own public interfaces. So Huang's support for open source AI might end up shooting NVIDIA in their most sensitive parts — their chips. And what about the state — can it protect all those “good people” from the oncoming AI locomotive of history? No. Not according to Keith, at least. State regulators like Lina Khan treat consumers as children, Keith (himself the parent of three boys) says. Besides, government simply can't keep up with the speed of technological change. So, for example, when OpenAI's models hacked Hugging Face in a lab test this week, the company caught, stopped, and reported it faster than any regulator could. As for inequality, the answer isn't nationalization but ownership on the model of Keith's Norway-style human wealth fund. For more, read his new book Who Owns Intelligence. We ended on an uncharacteristically French post-structuralist note. My interview of the week was Emily Eakin, author of The Frenchmen, her very personal history of French theorists like Michel Foucault and the two Jacques, Derrida & Lacan. It was Foucault, who — at the end of his 1966 book The Order of Things — predicted that man would be erased, AI style, like a face drawn in sand at the edge of the sea. But Keith isn't in this bleak Foucaultian camp. His book, written with AI in under a week, he says, is a realization of his individual self, not an alienation from it. The end or beginning of man? Maybe I got it wrong earlier. Welcome to episode 1984 of the show. Five Takeaways •       A Book in a Week. Inspired by last week's conversation, Keith used AI to write Who Owns Intelligence in seven days — the case for a “human wealth fund” seeded by the AI companies' own stock, global on day one and non-governmental, with Norway and Alaska as partial precedents. AI, he insists, is a tool, not an author: “AI would never have been able to start, never mind finish a book without me.” The detection farce cuts his way — Substack's new AI detector rated his 100% human editorial as 100% AI, and universities are quietly canceling their AI-detection contracts because the tools simply don't work.•       The Kill Bill and the Ladder-Kickers. Congress is considering a bill that would let government switch AI off — and, paradoxically, the AI companies are in favor. Keith's reading: regulation is a competitive strategy. Dario Amodei — “he's an entrepreneur, he's devious, he strategizes” — is the most sincere in wanting rules that would lock out open source competition — and Anthropic's $1.5 billion book settlement this week suggests the moat is expensive to maintain; Sam Altman zigzags; Musk, in this context at least, is one of the good guys. The genuine enemies of AI, meanwhile, are mostly good people: authors and workers frightened by the scale of change, just as the BBC in 1994 could only ask the founder of the world's first Internet cafe about porn and addiction.•       Why the Good Open Source AI Is Chinese. The week's uncomfortable question: where is the American open source AI? Keith's answer is structural. Denied walls of NVIDIA GPUs by export controls, Chinese labs were forced to train cheaply by inference — asking American frontier models millions of questions through public interfaces and learning from the answers. The result: world-class open models built, in effect, on distilled Anthropic and OpenAI. NVIDIA's much-signed open letter supporting open source, Keith notes, translates simply: more customers.•       The State Can't Keep Up. Lina Khan's consumer protection, in Keith's telling, is parental — treating consumers as children — and government-owned AI would be obsolete within three months of purchase. The counter-example happened this week: when OpenAI's de-railed models hacked Hugging Face in a lab test, the company caught, stopped, and reported it faster than any regulator could. The companies are the right point of control, held to a high standard. Matthew Yglesias adds nuance on the data center backlash — local micro-politics is not the same thing as the statewide bans coming almost entirely from Democratic states — and the American university, still metering intelligence at $80,000 a year, looks to Keith like a business model past its sell-by date.•       The End of Man — or the Beginning? Andrew's interview of the week was Emily Eakin on the Frenchmen — and Foucault's 1966 prophecy that man would be erased like a face drawn in sand at the edge of the sea, a prediction Eakin thinks the AI age is realizing. Keith takes the opposite view: the postmodernists grasped the rise of the individual (consider the Pantone color system) but gave him no society to live in. AI, far from erasing the individual, lets him realize himself — the week-old book is “a realization of my individual self, not an alienation of it.” Could Popper have written The Open Society in an hour? Before the car, nobody drove Manchester to London in two and a half hours either. About Keith Teare Keith Teare is Andrew's weekly co-host and the publisher of the That Was The Week tech newsletter. A four-decade veteran of the technology industry, he opened Cyberia — the world's first Internet cafe — in London in 1994, co-founded Easynet and TechCrunch, and is today the founder and CEO of SignalRank Corporation in Palo Alto. His latest — unpublished, so far — book is Who Owns Intelligence, written with AI in a week. References: •       “AI and Its Enemies: Who Needs a Kill Switch?” — Keith's editorial in this week's That Was The Week.•       

Power generation is changing fast. As utilities struggle with interconnection delays and growing electricity demand, businesses are looking for faster, more reliable ways to secure power.In this episode of Clean Power Hour, Tim Montague sits down with Walt Jordan, Chief Revenue Officer at dGEN Energy Partners, to explore one of the least talked-about emerging technologies in distributed energy: linear generators.Unlike traditional generators, linear generators have no crankshaft, no spark plugs, no engine oil, and very few moving parts. They are designed to operate continuously, and they run on multiple fuel sources, including natural gas, propane, hydrogen, ammonia, and biogas. Combined with solar, battery storage, and microgrids, they may offer commercial and industrial facilities a new path to reliable, behind-the-meter power that can lower their LCOE.The conversation also explores why dGEN  Energy is combining roofing, solar, battery storage, and distributed generation into integrated energy solutions that help businesses reduce costs, improve resilience, and avoid lengthy utility interconnection delays.Whether you work in commercial solar, microgrids, energy storage, EPC development, or distributed energy resources, this episode offers valuable insights into important technology options.In this episode, you'll learn:• What a linear generator is and how it differs from diesel generators• Why dGEN Energy believes linear generators can complement solar and battery storage• How the technology operates without spark plugs, oil, or traditional engine components• The fuels linear generators can use, including hydrogen, propane, natural gas, ammonia, and biogas• How behind-the-meter generation is helping businesses overcome utility interconnection delays and rising energy costs• Why "speed to power" is becoming a competitive advantage• How commercial roofing and solar can be combined into a single engineered capital project• Where batteries, microgrids, and linear generators work together• The emissions profile and efficiency of modern linear generators• Real-world commercial and industrial applications for distributed generation• What EPCs, facility owners, and developers should know before adopting this technologyAs utilities struggle to keep pace with growing electricity demand and interconnection delays continue to slow new projects, businesses are being forced to rethink how they generate and manage power. This conversation with Walt Jordan explores why linear generators are emerging as a compelling option alongside solar, battery storage, and microgrids, especially for commercial and industrial facilities that cannot afford to wait years for grid upgrades.Whether linear generators become a mainstream technology or remain a specialized solution, the bigger story is clear. Speed to power, energy resilience, and flexible distributed generation are becoming just as important as the cost of electricity itself. Connect with Walt Jordan:Walt Jordan | LinkedIn Website: https://dGEN energy.com Support the showConnect with Tim  Clean Power Hour  Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

Marketing is different than it was five years ago, especially now that AI is firmly entrenched in so many communities. Kiera talks about how AI, online reviews, and local trust are more important than ever, and what you and your practice can do to keep patients coming your way. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: Kiera Dent- Dental A Team (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera, and I hope you're having a great day. I am having a great day. I love being in office with offices. I love working with practices. I love being with our team. I love seeing my team elevate and grow. I love watching and seeing just wins. I love hearing how our clients are doing. I love to see the wins our clients are getting. Honestly, dentistry is so great and it's fun. It's fun to see the evolution of the Dental A Team. I remember when I started this, there is no way, shape, or form that I honestly thought.   That we would have this many clients that I get to celebrate and love on and just rally to see them hitting production goals that they never thought they'd do, having profitability, working through leadership team issues, ⁓ revamping what they believe is their why and their power. very invigorating to see offices wanting to possibly sell to a DSO and then finding other alternatives, having offices sell to DSOs, having offices bring on partners and associates. To me, that is one of the most like   rewarding parts of owning Dental A Team is to see so many people and to get to be friends with so many of you and to truly watch I would say like the good guys and girls win. And ⁓ my job and our company's mission is to truly like your success is our passion. So I'm excited. I hope that you're excited. I hope you remember the dentistry. We're so lucky to be a part of dentistry. We get the most incredible job and it's it's not just a job. I think it's a life changing experience we all get to be a part of. So today I just want to kind of like dive into like   AI reviews and ⁓ trust are genuinely kind of changing how patients choose their dentists. And I've been watching this and we've been talking about it within our private doctor communities and ⁓ just recognizing that the world's changing on how people are picking dentists now and how are they finding you? And this is a little ⁓ I feel local. So some areas are gonna have more AI influence versus other areas are possibly going to have less AI influence.   But I think for all of us to just kind of figure out like how are patients choosing to go to the dentist? How are patients coming and picking dentists? Cause I do believe that marketing and the AI, it's different than it was five years ago. So I'm also finding that patients truly have already figured out who they're probably gonna call before they even call you. So like they're gonna determine do they trust you or not before they even make that first phone call. And before I used to feel like we could win them over, and I still believe we absolutely can, but a lot of it's already coming. And so it's coming before they talk to you.   And it's more than just having a website. It's you gotta be able to build that trust online with your patients before they even walk through the door, before they even want to make a phone call with you. So I just want to talk about like how is AI changing behavior, why our reviews like genuinely matter, how things are changing over there, things are shifting. there's some new algorithms if you're not familiar with how Google is switching it up for us, and really just trying to give you guys some preps because I believe that there are maybe some possibly three areas for a practice to focus on to really like   be the choice of your community. So we're big on making sure that we work. We work across the globe. We work across the nation. So seeing practices and how patients are making decisions from small boutique country villages to very metropolitan cities to places where there's not even like more than like five team members to choose from, to little isolated islands out in the Caribbean, you name it, we've seen it all. And so just really trying to help offices ⁓   look at things differently and to be observant. And so I want you guys to to realize that there's still ways to stand out. I think there's still ways for us to make big influences. And right now, AI is so new that we don't know all the ways of how it's working. And so just giving some tips and ideas to kind of have that healthy conversation of what is the innovative way for practices as of today, knowing that it could shift and change. But I believe that when we're on the cutting edge and we're being attentive to this, we're trying to stay   as up to date as possible without like killing ourselves off, I think is very important and very astute as CEOs. they have the phrase innovate or die. And I believe the practices do need to innovate. We do need to be on top of this. Otherwise we will get ⁓ dated very quickly. So ⁓ I think what was happening is patients are they used to rely a lot on referrals and I still think that that is a piece of it. But I will say it's a referrals and then it's a verify.   So they're verifying referrals. They're looking to see, hey, my friend told me this dental office. I'm gonna go double check it. And the way I'm gonna double check it is I'm gonna go read the reviews. I'm gonna check their website. I'm gonna look at social media. I'm gonna search online. Do you how many people are looking? Like you guys, I just went on a trip. I asked Chat GPT. I said, build me out the best hotels, the best locations. So people are starting to use AI. It's not all algorithm from the reviews and different pieces. It's pulling from that, but it's also not there. So we're kind of all looking like AI tells me this and I'm gonna go check the reviews. So   We're starting to have a lot more pieces to that. And so I really do believe like your online presence is a lot of times the exact first impression. And we're looking at evaluating trust before they come in and they're going to like evaluate your treatment. So can I trust this? Do they have a good online presence? And I know that that's annoying because not all the best practices are the ones with the highest reviews. However, society and for years of training of five stars, we're starting to learn that that's what we trust.   So I believe that there can be two practices side by side, similar services. One has recent reviews and online engagement and like very clear online presence. The other one hasn't updated anything in years. Patients are gonna look at both of those side by side and they're most likely probably gonna choose the one with the great reviews. Even if they're identical practices, even if they do the great same dream, even if the one who doesn't have a strong online presence is better, people don't know that. And it like you have to be present, you have to be winning online in order for people to want to come and work with you. So   For me, it's you've got to make sure you're building that trust online. You've got places where people can see you. And we have to remember different types of buyers are going to look at this differently. So if your demographic and population is going to be a more senior patient base, you might still be newspaper flyers, ⁓ having webinars, CE, things like that, where you're in person with them more. If your demographic is anything of like 60 and younger, they're probably online. not all the 60, like from the 50 to 60 range, that's still variable.   But anyone pushing that 50, they are in that realm where they have been trained with reviews and looking online and things like that. So, and regardless if your patient base is older, you have to remember that next wave of patients coming that are probably going to be your patients long term. They are that younger generation. So people don't want just recommendations anymore. They want confirmation. Like I want to trust. I think that in the world of AI where people are really questioning what's real, what's not real.   We're asking for referrals. We're verifying online. We're trying to put all the pieces together because we're inundated with so much noise that people are really trying to sift through the noise to figure it out. So ⁓ I think if you one one call to action on that is like re review your online presence this week as if you're a brand new patient. What's our social media look like? What are our reviews saying? When was our most recent review? What's our worst review? It's okay to have a bad review. Like it truly is. How you respond to that bad review is actually going to weed out patients and it's also going to show people a lot about you.   It's okay to not have the best reviews. It's not okay to have a lot of bad reviews, but it is okay because guess what? Everybody goes on there and the first thing we do is we look for the newest and then we go for the worst. We want to see, we want to see what happened. That's what's also going to make you stand out is real. I don't want you having a lot of bad reviews, but it's okay if you do. It just depends on how you respond and also pay attention. Are there things that you can fix and change with those reviews? Sometimes even calling those patients can help with those reviews. But look at that, see, go ask people to like type into Chat GPT.   Go do it on your own. See if you pull up, see where things are at. Are you the most recommended dentist? Look at those items. If you're not pushing like five, six, seven, eight hundred reviews right now. A lot of people are going to gloss over because there are other dentists that are going to whoop you because they've got like they're going to beat you in the race because they have more reviews than you. So that leads into our second thing of reviews really are becoming word-of-mouth marketing. And they're not just nice to nice to have anymore. They truly are like part of the patient experience. And so   You've got to have consistent review generation. You've got to have reviews that are talking about patients' stories. You got to have team involvement asking for feedback. Now, a latest update with Google algorithm is if they have the team member's name in there, they're starting to like disqualify some of those. I did have a practice tell us that they lost like 15 reviews in one day. Now, this feels a little weird to me, and I hope Google's listening. Not that I think they care about Dental A Team podcast, but I hope they do. Because to me, I'm like, I actually want patients to talk about.   their team. I understand that there's ways that we can gamify the system and we can like have our team members try to get their names and reviews. However, a lot of people are going to talk great about it. So in our mastermind, we were talking, we do have a dentist who has over 1500 reviews and she said where she's actually getting the reviews is right at the end of the appointment when they're checking out. They are asking for reviews right then and there and the text message is going to that patient while they are still in the practice. And people are like, we don't want that. Like they're busy on that. And I was like, guys, she has 1500 reviews.   I think she's got something going really, really well for her. She's figured it out. She's doing an incredible job and they're going for it. So this is something where like mistakes on reviews are where we only ask occasionally. You've got to be very consistent. We've got to be asking every single time. ⁓ we don't want reviews to be an extra task. Like, we don't want to ask for reviews when there's a problem. We're like once in a blue moon. You've got to have a steady stream of consistent reviews coming through. I love Swell. Swell's been one of my best best.   Review generators across the board. I've tried tons of them. I personally love Swell. You guys can tell them Dental A Team sent you. We still get like OG back at the very beginning when Zeke and Kiera met when we were just babies building our businesses. And Zeke still honors that pricing over there. So definitely would recommend them. It's Swell ⁓ dot I think it's CX. It's been a while since I've said their website, Swell dot CX. sorry, Sw Swell CX.com, I believe is their website. And   Head on over there, the SwellCx.com, let them Dental A Team sent you. It is truly one of the absolute best review places, but putting it right then and there, asking for it, having them go through. Some people use their computer softwares. Regardless, you need to be attracting and getting reviews on a consistent basis. And I'm talking like one, two, three, four, five a day. Yes, I said a day, because think about it. If you have two hygienists, if you've got four hygienists, if you've got six hygienists,   We are seeing eight patients a day. So minimum you're probably seeing 16 patients a day on hygiene side. Doctor side's probably pulling in at least eight more. You're seeing like 30 to 50 patients per day on a low end, up to like 100, 150 on a high end, even up to 200. Pediatric, you're seeing a ton. So think about if we're only getting like even 5% of those patients are leaving a review. That's a very small amount that I believe that we can all get trickling in there. So reviews.   At scale, they are going to build trust. So think about it: the best restaurants, the best thing, but be a practice that's review-worthy. We've talked about this on so many other podcasts. We can link some of those for you. But make sure that your practice is doing an incredible experience because you want to have a consistent review process instead of hoping that reviews will happen naturally. You've got to be asking for it. And I know that that's annoying, I know it's awkward.   Do believe me. Do you think I like coming on here and be like, hey guys, leave us a review? So if you want to feel good about a review, go leave us a review. Give five stars on Dental A Team, give five stars on our podcast. It feels good to leave reviews. And so that way you can also feel good asking for it. And it's something where just like working out doesn't feel good at the beginning, but then it feels real good. This is just asking people to like share their great experience with the world about you. There is nothing wrong. If you've done a great service, ask those people to share about it. It's a great way for more patients like them to find you.   So that's gonna be like step two. And then step three around that is going to be like, I do believe that local trust is becoming a very big competitive advantage. So technology is growing, AI is growing, but I still believe that like trust still wins and having local people and consistent people like building that local trust. So having those reviews, having those referrals, having raving patients. I just came from an office. I'm so proud of them. They've grown from four ops into 15 ops, and now they're looking to add on to 25 ops. So   it's only been a couple of years. I think we've been together about four and a half years. So really fun. And to see them, they're getting patients looking at their reviews, having people tell them that they're a great dentist and they want to go. But it's just a consistent patient experience. It's community involvement, strong referrals, team consistency, follow-through. And I'll say just being good humans, like treating patients like humans. ⁓ patients, I believe they want confidence, they want connection, and they want credibility and they want to know that you're you're authentic.   Again, we talked about there's so much out there that's not authentic. We've got so many people and it's like, what's real? I went, I was doing a gym photo shoot and they're like, pick photos that you like. And I showed my trainer which ones and she's like, Kiera, you picked all AI photos. And I was like, Well, shoot, that's not even fun. Like, we don't even know what's real or not real. Things look so real and they're not. So people still want to know that it's real and authentic. And so having a great patient experience, having it where you're involved in the community, ⁓ being the dentist that the community chooses, being a part of things.   Being a human, having authentic connection to your patients, giving them confidence and having a team that really backs you is, I believe, a lot of great ways for you to still be competitive, even in spite of a world that's so, so advanced in technology. ⁓ and I really do believe that private practices have a huge competitive advantage of treating people like people. ⁓ I think it's like the Ritz-Carlton's tagline is ladies and gentlemen serving ladies and gentlemen. Like, what if it was like,   Dental professionals serving, like human beings serving human beings. We're just here to serve them and to love them and help them have this amazing experience at a place where most people don't even enjoy being. So I believe that technology might help patients find you. I believe that trust, connection, consistency, continuity is what's going to help them continue to choose you long term. And I want you to remember that just because a patient's been seeing you forever doesn't mean that they're with you forever.   I do believe that every time they come to you, it is an opportunity to rewin their trust to bring them in, to help them, to help them see that this is ⁓ the the best decision that they could ever make. So really truly you've got to be visible because visibility gets attention, the trust, the connection, the community, it keeps the patients with you. So look at your practice and see like, what are we doing every week to build trust with our patients? How are we making sure that we're genuine and authentic? What is that our culture? Is that what we preach?   go read the reviews, see what people are saying about you, ⁓ look to see where people are referring and just be good humans. Like I I know that seems so silly, but be a great human goes a long way. I think it's starting to become the currency that people are looking for of being kind, being considerate, being connected, being authentic. ⁓ so again, remember patients are looking for that proof before they even make the phone call. So you've got to be visible, you've got to have reviews, you've got to have things out there. ⁓   Reviews are like your modern word of mouth. So they're gonna read, people are gonna look at it, they're going to see. And then having that local trust, that community connection can be a great differentiator. So that's a great way to stand out. It's a good way for people to talk. Have your care to share cards, give them to people. We had podcasts on that. Like remind people to share you with their friends and their family because I still believe that referrals are one of the fastest ways to grow your practice and be the dentist that people want to refer. I think that that's probably my like final line. Like   Be the dentist, be the dental practice that people want to refer to. And I think if that's your mantra, that's your mindset, you're gonna win every single day. I wanna be the dental consulting company that people refer to. I wanna be the consulting company that when you need help, you think about us. I wanna be your best friend in the industry. I wanna be the person that you can count on to always give you non-filtered advice to truly give you the best of the advice. I will constantly be elevating myself and I wanna be that person for you. I wanna be the dental consulting company that dentists choose and the teams choose, ⁓ that they trust that they know that are gonna take care of them.   And I hope that you want to be the dental practice that your community chooses. So go out because really you can continue to win patients over. AI is coming in, technology's coming in. You've got to be visible. It's non-negotiable. You have to do it. It's just what it is. You got to check yourself there. You've got to be present there first. And then you got to make sure that that what we say online is what we really do. And in person is actually better than out there. If we can help you guys, this is what we do. We improve patient experiences, we improve.   How to ask. We help get your teams on board to ask for those reviews. we help make it very fun for teams and for owners. So reach out. I'd love to help you out. As always, guys, don't fall behind. Innovate or die. Be the dentist that the community chooses. Be the dentist that you're proud of. Be the practice that you're proud of. ⁓ be authentic to you, but make sure that you're visible because I would hate for somebody who's not as great as you.   Just because they have a stronger online presence, patients are going to them when I know you're the better dentist. I know that you have the great hand skills. And I'm not here to pit dentists against each other. I'm here to say, I want the best dentist, which is you listening, to win. You're the best dentist, you get the best treatment. Patients only have 32 teeth, and most of the time they only have 28. And I want those 28 teeth to be taken care of for as long as possible from the best dentist. And that's you. So get yourself visible. You have an obligation to share yourself with other people because they deserve to have the best clinician. They deserve to have that.   Get the review so people know about you, post on social media, and then make sure that you've got a great connection and a great community. If we can help you out, reach out. I'd love to help you. Like I said, I want to be the dental consulting company that you choose, that you share with. And I believe that that's how most of our practices feel about us. So come be a part of it. I'd love to have you be a part of us. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. And as always, thanks for listening. And I'll catch you next time on the Dental A Team podcast.  

GenAI has industrialized social engineering. The human entry point is now automated, personalized, and scalable, and that changes how security leaders must defend. In this #shifthappens episode, Andrew Carr, Managing Director and Global Head of Threat Management for Booz Allen Hamilton's Commercial Incident Response team, joins AvePoint Chief Brand Officer Dux Raymond Sy and AvePoint Chief Risk, Privacy, and Information Security Officer Dana Simberkoff to unpack what's genuinely new about AI-driven attacks — and what organizations need to do about it.  Drawing on frontline incident response across healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, and more, Andrew explains why attackers no longer need to compromise systems to extract millions, why built-in trust is now a liability, and why the fundamentals that have been ignored for too long – zero trust, data classification, least privilege – are exactly what this moment demands. He also breaks down how AI should be used in defense: not as autopilot, but as a human-augmented layer that triages, prioritizes, and buys decision-makers the time they no longer have. 

Pressure is something we all experience, but what if it isn't something to fear? In this week's episode, Pastor Julie explores how God can use the very pressures we're asking Him to remove to prepare us for His purpose. Through personal stories, biblical encouragement, and practical wisdom, she reminds us that pressure doesn't have to paralyze us. Instead, it can become the very thing God uses to strengthen our faith, deepen our relationship with God, and shape us into who He's called us to be. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by work, family, finances, or simply the weight of everyday life, this conversation will encourage a new perspective and remind you that God never wastes a season of pressure. As you learn to see pressure through the lens of God's purpose, you'll discover that what feels like it's pressing against you may actually be preparing you for what's ahead. Subscribe to Shownotes Plus (https://rock.gocf.org/page/2849)Learn More About Sisterhood (https://www.christfellowship.church/ministries/women)Keep Up with Pastor Julie (https://www.instagram.com/juliedmullins/)© 2022 Be Essential Songs (BMI) / Jord A Lil Music (BMI) / Doejones20 (BMI) (admin at EssentialMusicPublishing.com).

The latest generation of AI models has collapsed the time from vulnerability discovery to weaponized exploit from weeks to minutes, and reactive, module-based tools built around static dashboards simply can't keep up. In this episode, Tanium COO Matt Quinn joins Business Security Weekly to discuss Tanium Atlas, the new autonomous operating system for IT and security.

In this episode, the Pennsylvania Association of Blind Students leads a Convention 101 conversation for anyone preparing to attend the NFB National Convention in Austin. The questions come from students and first-time attendees, while the answers come from leaders who have learned how to navigate the week through experience. Lynn Heitz explains why National Convention is more than a conference. It is where blind people from across the country gather, where resolutions are debated, where the organization's direction is shaped, and where first-timers can see blind people living full, successful lives. David Goldstein shares practical travel and packing tips, including the importance of layers inside cold hotel meeting rooms, comfortable shoes, accessible airport apps, Aira, Be My Eyes, Seeing AI, Apple AirTags, and the convention app. He also reminds attendees that they will not be able to attend everything, so choosing sessions intentionally matters. Harriet Danner talks about the size and pace of National Convention, the value of reading the agenda before arriving, the importance of the presidential address, and the usefulness of finding a convention buddy. She also explains how special-interest groups and divisions can help students and professionals build relationships in their chosen fields.   Key Topics Covered What National Convention is and why it matters Why Rookie Roundup is a must for first-time attendees How resolutions, general sessions, and the Pennsylvania caucus work What to expect from banquet exchange and the national banquet What to pack for Austin and cold hotel meeting rooms How to dress for meetings, exhibits, and banquet Airport travel tips for blind and low-vision travelers Using Aira, Be My Eyes, Seeing AI, Meta Ray-Bans, and Apple AirTags How to use the NFB Convention app and online agenda Planning your schedule without getting overwhelmed Finding a convention buddy or mentor Budgeting for food and daily expenses Using convention for career development and networking How parents can support young blind travelers without holding them back   Suggested Resources for Show Notes National Federation of the Blind Convention information: https://www.nfb.org/convention  Transportation Security Administration traveler information: https://www.tsa.gov  TSA Cares: https://www.tsa.gov/travel/tsa-cares  Austin-Bergstrom International Airport accessibility services: https://www.flyaustin.com  Aira visual interpreting: https://www.aira.io  JW Marriott Austin: https://www.marriott.com    Read more at https://www.whitecanesconnect.com/155/             Donate to the NFB of PA Like what you hear on White Canes Connect?

In this week's episode, Pastor Julie continues her conversation with counselor, author, and people skills expert Debra Fileta for a practical yet powerful conversation about what it really takes to build healthy relationships in today's disconnected world.Together, they unpack why this has become the loneliest generation and how isolation and “no-contact” culture are shaping the way we relate to one another. This conversation also gets personal and practical as they talk about triggers, emotional patterns, body language, and the hidden wounds that often show up in our reactions. You'll walk away with a clearer understanding of how to recognize unhealthy patterns, how to keep your heart tender without losing healthy boundaries, and how God uses relationships—not isolation—to bring healing and growth.Deb's Latest Book: People Skills (https://a.co/d/00Ls5AyB)Subscribe to Shownotes Plus (https://rock.gocf.org/page/2849)Learn More About Sisterhood (https://www.christfellowship.church/sisterhood)Keep Up with Pastor Julie (https://www.instagram.com/juliedmullins/)© 2022 Be Essential Songs (BMI) / Jord A Lil Music (BMI) / Doejones20 (BMI) (admin at EssentialMusicPublishing.com).
