Crisis Is Coming. Are You Ready? Every leader will face a crisis. The question is whether you'll be prepared—or caught off guard. In this episode of Deep Leadership, I sit down with Stephanie Craig, President of Kith, to talk about what most leaders get wrong about crisis management—and how to fix it before it's too late. Stephanie shares why crisis preparedness is a mindset, not a checklist, and how trust, clarity, and communication determine whether your organization survives—or comes out stronger. We also dive into: Why most companies treat crisis prep like a “check-the-box” exercise The difference between your brand and your reputation (and why it matters) How to build trust before a crisis hits Real-world examples of companies that turned potential disasters into wins Practical ways small and mid-sized businesses can prepare without massive budgets If you lead a team, run a business, or want to become a better leader—this is a conversation you can't afford to miss.

If you are a risk, resilience or crisis management professional, you might think that the most important thing you can focus on in 2026 is AI. But this week's guest says there is something far more important. She says, we need to be focusing on our stakeholders. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 227 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week we are joined by Stephanie Craig, owner, President and CEO of Kith - a Crisis Communications Firm. Stephanie and Mark talk about the importance of understanding not only WHO our stakeholders are, but having a deep understanding of what's important to them. Stephanie explains that the company owns the brand, but your stakeholders own your reputation. And, your reputation is what people are saying about you when you're not in the room. Mark reminds us that we as risk, resilience and crisis management professionals also have an individual brand, and we all have stakeholders that we need to focus on.

Happy New Year from Fratello On Air! We're back with a new episode, and we're going shopping. Well, maybe. One of us has his eyes on several pieces while the other is taking a wait-and-see approach. Enjoy our 2026 kickoff!Yes, we're back for another year, and it's great to be here! With a new year, we usually make resolutions. However, last year's resolutions didn't go so well. In particular, Mike failed miserably on his plan to sell watches. He was simply too lazy. So instead of making these types of predictions, we've opted to talk about what's on our shopping lists.HandgelenkskontrolleWe kick off our show with a discussion about Kith, which some of you may recall from the controversial TAG Heuer Formula 1 × Kith collaboration in 2024. The brand just opened a new store in London, which is worth visiting if sneakers are of interest. For the Handgelenkskontrolle, Balazs is wearing his trusty G-Shock GW-B5600-2ER, a watch that seems to give him good luck when traveling. Mike is wearing his Synchron Military, a fun piece from 2021. This segues into a conversation about the Synchron Sealab Ti300M, a new titanium diver with many similarities to the Doxa Sub 300T.Shopping in 2026For 2026, we're taking a more reserved approach to collecting — sort of. Mike has a trio of expensive watches on his radar and will struggle to land any of them. However, he has vowed to stay away from accumulating more lower-priced pieces. Balazs, on the other hand, has less specific desires. He has just ordered a microbrand watch from Japan but is keeping mum on the name until it arrives. A watch that Mike is hot on is the Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF 36 in Stone Blue. This probably isn't a surprise, as it comes up now and again on episodes, but make no mistake, the desire is real!Balazs has come close to completing his Angelus collection, but he'd love to add a vintage minute repeater. For the second year in a row, Mike also has a certain vintage watch on his list. The "large" Cartier Tank Normale is still a lustworthy piece, but it's expensive. With its 23mm by 30mm case, this little beauty has real presence but a hefty price tag. Balazs is taking some small steps to fund potential acquisitions by selling a few of his Angelus duplicates, which bodes well for his piggy bank. Finally, while adding another Rolex to the collection wasn't planned, a '60s gilt-dial Rolex Submariner 5513 would be amazing. Our friend Eric Wind of Wind Vintage often finds great examples. There's just something special about the warm font!We hope you enjoy today's episode and look forward to the upcoming year. Let us know what's on your shopping list for 2026 and, while you're at it, what else you'd like to hear about in future installments.
Episode web page: https://bit.ly/3Ys2J9d Episode description: In this episode of Insights Unlocked, Phillip Jackson, CEO and co-founder of Future Commerce, joins the show to explore how commerce is fundamentally shaped by culture, not just technology. Phillip dives into how leading brands use AI in retail to enhance customer experiences quietly and authentically, why friction in the customer journey isn't always a bad thing, and how brands can stand out in a sea of sameness. Key themes and takeaways Commerce is culture, not just tech. Phillip explains that what we buy and how we buy it are deeply tied to identity and culture. The smartest brands are those who see commerce as part of daily life, not just a transaction. The invisible hand of AI in retail. AI can transform retail experiences, but its best applications are often invisible. Using examples like Taco Bell, Phillip discusses how AI can quietly make things easier and more delightful for customers—without being intrusive. Friction's hidden value. Not all friction is bad. While reducing unnecessary pain is important, Phillip argues that some friction helps customers make better decisions, reduces returns, and actually builds trust. Personalization: meaningful, not just flashy. True personalization goes beyond using someone's name. Phillip suggests it's about understanding intent and context, and that surface-level personalization often falls flat or feels invasive. Standing out from e-commerce sameness. E-commerce platforms have made shopping easier, but also more homogenous. Phillip shares research showing that when branding is stripped away, many sites are indistinguishable—and that differentiation is key to long-term loyalty. Clean data is your AI superpower. Brands that want to unlock the full power of AI need holistic, clean data. Phillip shares how brands like Kith leverage years of clean purchase data to launch ambitious customer programs. Invest in what matters. Rather than chasing every trend, Phillip encourages brands to focus on practical, high-value areas—like smarter search, better recommendations, and strong post-purchase support—that truly solve customer pain points.

Thanks to Holly for suggesting this week’s topic! Further reading: Mermaids: Myth, Kith and Kin [this article is not for children] Feejee Mermaid A manatee: A female grey seal, looking winsome: A drawing of the “original” Fiji (or Feejee) mermaid: Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. Let's close out the year 2025 with a mystery episode! Holly suggested we talk about mermaids! Mermaids are creatures of folklore who are supposed to look like humans, but instead of legs they have fish tails. These days mermaids are usually depicted with a single tail, but it was common in older artwork for a mermaid to be shown with two tails, which replaced both legs. Not all mermaids were girls, either. Mermen were just as common. Cultures from around the world have stories about mermaid-like individuals. Sometimes they're gods or goddesses, like the Syrian story of a goddess so beautiful that when she transformed into a fish, only her legs changed, because her upper half was too beautiful to alter, or the Greek god Triton, who is usually depicted as a man with two fish tails for legs. Sometimes they're monsters who cause storms, curse ships, or lure sailors to their doom. Sometimes they can transform into humans, like the story from Madagascar about a fisherman who catches a mermaid in his net. She transforms into a human woman and they get married, but when he breaks a promise to her, she turns back into a mermaid and swims away. In 2012, a TV special aired on Animal Planet that claimed that mermaids were real, and a lot of people believed it. It imitated the kind of real documentaries that Animal Planet often ran, and the only disclaimer was in the credits. I remember how upset a lot of people were about it, especially teachers and scientists. So just to be clear, mermaids aren't real. Many researchers think at least some mermaid stories might be based on real animals. The explorer Christopher Columbus reported seeing three mermaids in 1493, but said they weren't as beautiful as he'd heard. Most researchers think he actually saw manatees. A few centuries later, a mermaid was captured and killed off the coast of Brazil by European scientists, and the careful drawings we still have of the mermaid's hand bones correspond exactly to the bones of a manatee's flipper. Female manatees are larger than males on average, and a really big female can grow over 15 feet long, or 4.6 meters. Most manatees are between 9 and 10 feet long, or a little less than 3 meters. Its body is elongated like a whale's, but unlike a whale it's slow, usually only swimming about as fast as a human can swim. Its skin is gray or brown although often it has algae growing on it that helps camouflage it. The end of the manatee's tail looks like a rounded paddle, and it has front flippers but no rear limbs. Its face is rounded with a prehensile upper lip covered with bristly whiskers, which it uses to find and gather water plants. The manatee doesn't look a lot like a person, but it looks more like a person than most water animals. It has a neck and can turn its head like a person, its flippers are fairly long and resemble arms, and females have a pair of teats that are near their armpits, if a manatee had armpits, which it does not. But that's close enough for Christopher Columbus to decide he was seeing a mermaid. Seals may have also contributed to mermaid stories. In Scottish folklore, the selkie is a seal that can transform into human shape, usually by taking off its skin. There are lots of stories of people who steal the selkie's skin and hide it so that the selkie will marry the person—because selkies are beautiful in their human form. Eventually the selkie finds the hidden skin and returns to the sea. Similar seal-folk legends are found in other parts of northern Europe, including Sweden, Iceland, Norway, and Ireland. Many of the stories overlap with mermaid stories. Seals do have appealing human-like faces, have clawed front flippers that sort of resemble arms, and have rear flippers that are fused to act like a tail, even if it doesn't look much like a fish tail. The grey seal is a common animal off the coast of northern Europe, and a big male can grow almost 11 feet long, or 3.3 meters, although 9 feet is more common, or 2.7 meters. It has a large snout and no external ear flaps. Males are dark grey or brown, females are more silvery in color. It mainly eats fish, but will also eat other animals, including crustaceans, octopuses, other seals, and even porpoises. While I don't think it has anything to do with the mermaid or selkie legends, it is interesting to note that seals are good at imitating human voices. We learned about this in episode 225, about talking mammals. For instance, Hoover the talking seal, a harbor seal from Maine who was raised by a human after his mother died. Imagine if you were walking along the shore and a seal said this to you: [Hoover the talking seal saying “Hey get over here!”] Let's finish with the Japanese legend of the ningyo and a weird taxidermy creature called the Feejee mermaid. The ningyo is a being of folklore that dates back to at least the 7th century. It was a fish with a head like a person, usually found in the ocean but sometimes in freshwater. If someone found a ningyo washed up on shore, it was supposed to be a bad omen, foretelling war and other disasters. If you remember the big fish episode a few weeks ago, if an oarfish is found near the surface of the ocean around Japan, it's supposed to foretell an earthquake. The oarfish has a red fin that runs from its head down its spine, like a mane or a comb, and the ningyo was also supposed to have a red comb on its head, like a rooster's comb, or sometimes red hair. Some people think the ningyo is based on the oarfish. The oarfish is a deep-sea fish so it's rare, usually only seen near the surface when it's dying, and it has a flat face that looks more like a human face than most fish, if you squint and really want to believe you're seeing a mythical creature. These days, artwork of the ningyo usually looks a lot more like mermaids of European legend, but the earliest paintings don't usually have arms, just a human head on a fish body. But by the late 18th century, a weird type of artwork had become popular among Japanese fishermen, a type of crude but inventive taxidermy that created what looked like small, creepy mermaids. They looked like dried-out monkeys from the waist up, with a dried-out fish tail instead of legs. That's because that's exactly what they were. Japanese fishermen made these mermaids along with lots of other monsters, and sold them to travelers for high prices. The fishermen told tall tales about how they'd found the monster, killed it, and preserved it, and pretended to be reluctant to sell it, and of course that meant the traveler would offer even more money for it. The most famous of these fake monsters was called the Fiji Mermaid, and it got famous because P.T. Barnum displayed it in his museum in 1842 and said it had been caught near the Fiji Islands, in the South Pacific. It was about three feet along, or 91 cm, and was probably made from a young monkey and a salmon. The original Fiji mermaid was probably destroyed in a fire at some point, but it was such a popular exhibit that other wannabe showmen either bought or made replicas, some of which are still around today. People still sometimes make similar monsters, but they use craft materials instead of dead animals. They're still creepy-looking, though, which is part of the fun.

很多人第一次听到 “Not in the same league”这个短语时,会按照字面意思理解为 “不在同一个联盟”。然而,在实际的对话场景里,它有着截然不同的含义。今天,卡卡老师就来为大家解读 “Not in the same league” 的真实意思和用法。“Not in the same league” 意思是“水平不在一个档次;不是一个级别的”。这里的 “league” 并非仅指组织层面的 “联盟”,而是用来衡量人或事物在能力、技能、水平、档次等方面的 “层级”,当两者在这些维度存在明显差距,无法相提并论时,就可以用这个短语来描述。这个用法的来源于体育赛事。在足球、篮球等体育项目中,“league”(联赛)会根据队伍实力划分不同级别,比如英超、英冠就是英国足球不同层级的联赛,不同联赛的队伍实力差距显著。人们由此类比,将 “不在同一个联赛” 延伸为 “实力、水平不在同一层级”,后来逐渐脱离体育场景,广泛用于日常交流,可形容人(如能力、成绩)、事物(如品质、档次)之间的差距。电影原声1:-You are not her competition. You are not even in the same league. She's got guts.你根本不是她的对手,你们甚至不在一个层次上。她有胆量。例子:A: Do you think Tom can compete with Mike in the singing contest?A:你觉得汤姆能在歌唱比赛里和迈克竞争吗?B: No way. They're not in the same league. Mike has been training for years.B:不可能。他们根本不是一个级别的。迈克已经训练好几年了。电影原声2:-It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Cole. 认识您很高兴,科尔先生。-Likewise.我也是。- You two are in the same business.你们是同行。-But not exactly in the same league. Kith is a cellist. One of the best that I have ever heard.— 但也不完全是一个级别的。姬丝是位大提琴家,还是我听过的最出色的大提琴家之一。 更多卡卡老师分享公众号:卡卡课堂 卡卡老师微信:kakayingyu001送你一份卡卡老师学习大礼包,帮助你在英文学习路上少走弯路

Subscribe to Throwing Fits on Substack. RIP la capra Italiana. This week, Jimmy and Larry are paying homage to boxer style shorts, wearing the band tee to the funeral, when to bust out the Paraboots, cotton-linen blends, dumpy diaper butt pants, adult acne, remembering the one and only Giorgio Armani and his immeasurable influence, how archivists and mood boarders are moving in response to the news, ruminating on contemporary collective grief over a celebrity death, Lawrence finally saw Oasis live at MetLife Stadium and it lived up to his impossibly high expectations and he could probably talk about it forever to be honest so forgive him as he gets a little emotional, what even is Padel, Kith is opening up a member's only club in NYC and bringing Erewhon and a bunch of other sponsors with them (including Armani) so let's break it all down since it's gonna cost you $36,000/year, luxury hammam handjobs, you might've heard that SSENSE filed for bankruptcy protection but how did we get here and what might happen next, and much more.
Welcome to this classic episode. Classics are my favorite episodes from the past 10 years, published once a month. These are N of 1 conversations with N of 1 people. Sean Feeney makes you want to be a better person, friend, and leader. Sean is the co-founder of Grove House Hospitality Group and the owner of Lilia and Misi, two of New York City's most sought-after restaurants. He left his job in Trading to chase down a dream with Michelin star chef Missy Robbins. Sean leveraged his finance background to write his own rulebook for the restaurant industry, crafting several establishments that now boast several thousand people on the waitlist any given night. His story is as entertaining as it is inspiring. As we go step by step through his business endeavors, he points out all of the times he was told “it's just always been done this way” and how that revealed to him where he could innovate. Sean's restaurants are the perfect example of building a business into the fabric of a community, collaborating with other brands in authentic ways, and staying true to yourself along the way. Please enjoy this awesome conversation with Sean Feeney.

'WHO ARE YOU ANYWAY?' x Rory feat. LEON THOMAS is available NOW https://orcd.co/rorywayaThere's too much going on right now in Hip-Hop. First, DJ Khaled had a monkey wrench thrown in his album release just from one sarcastic comment from Drake on Instagram. Do you believe this album is getting back again? Cause we do (09:21). Our favorite urban outfitter (hahaha) Kith is releasing music now, and we give our take on it (28:50). By the time you're hearing this, I'm sure you've already downloaded Tweaker Remix with Lil Wayne. Of course our resident rap nerd HATES the idea of it, and his dismay gets us into our personal top 5 rappers (35:25). Speaking of our personal faves, Demaris is over the moon about Cardi B's new song with Pardison Fontaine (48:58). Of course the boys have to start talking like they're at the music label and ruin her joy. Rory tries to figure out the last time he heard a Lil Wayne album, while Tommy Richman proves to us that once you go black, you don't go back (1:00:30). Kanye confirmed some of suspicions about AI use with his next album - maybe Druski can catch him mid-rollout for his new reality show, 'Coulda Been Love' (1:13:45). We give our love to Irv Gotti (1:31:20), before getting into our latest voicemail submissions (1:38:16).
