Podcasts about Kwan

We wrap up the regular season and then talk postseason.The Wildcard series is underway and the Division series is taking shape. We started with HS Kim, Volpe, Yoshida, Suzuki, Ohtani, Darvish, Wong, Imanaga, Yamamoto, Sasaki, Kwan, and Edman. Lots of amazing feats of Asian baseball greatness is on display already, and there is more to come. Stay tuned!

This show has been flagged as Explicit by the host. Quick-Glance Summary I walk you through an MIT experiment where 54 EEG-capped volunteers wrote essays three ways: pure brainpower, classic search, and ChatGPT assistance. Brain-only writers lit up the most neurons and produced the freshest prose; the ChatGPT crowd churned out near-identical essays, remembered little, and racked up what the researchers dub cognitive debt : the interest you pay later for outsourcing thought today. A bonus “switch” round yanked AI away from the LLM devotees (cue face-plant) and finally let the brain-first team play with the toy (they coped fine), proving skills first, tools second. I spiced the tale with calculator nostalgia, a Belgian med-exam cheating fiasco, and Professor Felienne's forklift-in-the-gym metaphor to land one mantra: *scaffolds beat shortcuts*. We peeked at tech “enshittification” once investors demand returns, whispered “open-source” as the escape hatch, and I dared you to try a two-day test—outline solo, draft with AI, revise solo, then check what you still remember. Net takeaway: keep AI on a leash; let thinking drive, tools navigate . If you think I'm full of digital hot air, record your own rebuttal and prove it. Resources MIT study MIT Media Lab. (2025).

Steven Kwan!

The Cat in the Hat, much like doing shrooms, is an experience that will send you to another world of enlightenment. It will have you asking questions you never thought to utter before, like: "Is the Cat in the Hat God?", "Does Mrs. Kwan hold the secret to eternal life?" and, "Why the hell was the talking fish there?" In this episode, we'll cover all of these questions and more.The Cat in the Hat (2003) is rated PG (somehow).

In this episode, I talk with @Audrey Kwan in the Small But Mighty Agency, to tackle one of the most misunderstood growth levers in agency land: referrals.

We soldier on without our dear leader, Kim, much like some of our players who are soldiering on without full use of their muscles and ligaments as they deal with nagging injuries and slumps. But we keep going, even in the face of overt White Christian Nationalism invading our sacred stadiums. The Yankees honor a man who hated them to his core, several of our guys are banged up with injuries, and our pitchers aren't getting enough run support. The mystery of Volpe's horrible season might be explained by a nagging injury, much like Kwan's steady decline in the second half. But Suzuki and Senga are still mysteries. Both had historic starts to their seasons only to completely disappear in the second half. Yamamoto continues to dominate while getting no run support, and Ohtani is still...checks notes...Ohtani.Who will make it to the postseason? We can't wait to find out. Just two weeks of regular season play to go.

Twelve months ago we heard the sobering news of a significant attendance drop in Sydney Anglican Churches. Over the decade from 2013 to 2023, weekly attendance fell by 7% – and when you factor in population growth, attendance was 14% behind.At last year's Sydney Anglican Synod, the mood was serious. A resolution was passed calling for confession and humble repentance – acknowledging that their hadn't been sufficient priority, attention, reflection, or resources to seeing the lost saved by Jesus. Synod called for a five-year focus to reverse the decline – putting prayer, evangelism, church health, and leadership development at the very centre of priorities.Ahead of this year's Synod, there is a response. The Standing Committee appointed a subcommittee, led by the Archbishop, to bring forward concrete proposals. And what they have come back with is significant:A galvanising target – to pursue 5% annual growth through conversion for the next five years.A range of initiatives and actions designed to support churches, leaders, and congregations in this mission.Our guests are Pete Stedman, senior minister at Norwest Anglican Church, and a member of the Archbishop's subcommittee that has proposed the new goal, Jon Kwan, lead pastor at St. David's Forestville and Jo Gibbs, senior consultant with Reach Australia.The Church Cothechurchco.com is a website and app platform built specifically for churches.

David Clark is joined by Claudia Kwan, Managing Director at North Star Impact Funds and recipient of the Outstanding Individual Achievement Award at the Impact Investment Summit. A former Morgan Stanley trader and now one of Australia's leading voices in sustainable capital, Claudia shares how impact investing is evolving beyond its philanthropic roots to deliver returns competitive with traditional strategies. For investors who have historically prioritised financial performance over social outcomes, this episode challenges assumptions highlighting how capital can be deployed to sectors like affordable housing, electrification, and healthcare without compromising on economic returns. Key highlights: * Why measurable social and environmental outcomes are becoming part of mainstream investing. * How impact-aligned portfolios can deliver returns in line with traditional benchmarks. * NorthStar's values-driven, institutional-grade investment approach. * Claudia's journey as a female leader in the investment banking industry. Great perspective on why purpose and performance are no longer mutually exclusive.

The best conversations about the Guardians from The Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima, Baskin & Phelps, and The Afternoon Drive during the week of July 28-August 1. Discussing the Guards' maneuvers at the trade deadline, including the trade that sent 2020 Cy Young winner Shane Bieber to the Blue Jays. Plus, the decision not to trade All-Star outfielder Steven Kwan. Has the organization "waved the white flag" on 2025? Are fans frustrated with the team's direction? And what moves need to be made to improve the lineup for next season?

In a heated exchange, BT and Sal ignite a fiery debate over the Yankees' recent trade deadline decisions, particularly the decision not to pursue Cleveland Guardians star Steven Kwan. While BT argues for patience with the team's young prospects like Anthony Volpe, Sal passionately insists that the Yankees' front office, led by Brian Cashman, has a history of mismanaging top-end talent and should have traded a player like Jason Dominguez to acquire a proven, championship-level player like Kwan. The discussion also touches on the Mets' deadline moves and concludes with a lively interview with WWE's Michael Cole, who, as a die-hard Mets fan, offers his own fiery take on the team's chances.

In their post-deadline analysis, BT and Sal gave the New York Mets and Yankees a "solid" grade for their trade deadline moves, though neither felt the teams truly "crushed it." While acknowledging both clubs addressed critical bullpen needs and secured important position players (Mullins for the Mets, McMahon for the Yankees), they expressed a slight disappointment that neither team made the "over the top" blockbuster moves that would have earned them an A+ in their eyes, particularly the Yankees not landing a top-tier starter or Kwan, and the Mets settling for Mullins instead of a "splashier" center field option like Robert. Both hosts agreed that while improved, neither team went "all in" at the expense of top prospects.

In this lively discussion, BT and Sal delve into the hypothetical trade of Yankees prospect Jasson Dominguez for Cleveland Guardians outfielder Steven Kwan. Sal advocates for acquiring Kwan, emphasizing his proven Gold Glove defense and high-contact bat as a perfect fit for the Yankees' current needs. BT, however, shows more patience with Dominguez's potential, highlighting his youth and the inherent difficulty in evaluating prospects, and questioning the perceived "failure" of young Yankees while acknowledging Alvarez's struggles. The debate encapsulates the classic baseball dilemma: banking on future potential versus acquiring immediate, known production.

The 94 WIP Morning team asks Ben Davis and Ruben Amaro about other potential moves for the Phillies. The Phillies have been linked to Steven Kwan and Luis Robert Jr. Ben and Ruben are higher on Kwan than Robert, but the price will be high. Neither Ben nor Ruben are Luis Robert Jr. fans. Ruben says part of the reason Dombrowski hadn't made moves in years past was because he didn't know how good the prospects he had were to us for trades.

On the day of MLB's trade deadline, Baskin and Phelps discuss why the team would be entertaining trade offers for Steven Kwan when they're only 2.5 games out of the last wild card spot.

Baseball Today and Dugout Discussions Podcast Host Chris Rose joined OverDrive to discuss the Blue Jays' trade deadline options, Steven Kwan becoming a suitor for Toronto, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s skills with the bat, teams seeking a significant move, the NL landscape, the Dodgers' view as contenders and more.

In this discussion, BT and Sal dissect the Yankees' approach to the upcoming trade deadline. A major point of contention is the future of Anthony Volpe, with BT advocating for a minor league assignment to help him regain his form, while Sal believes it could be detrimental. They also debate the Yankees' overall strategy, arguing against a "halfway" approach and pushing for an "all-in" mentality if the team truly intends to contend, specifically highlighting Steven Kwan as a key target. However, they disagree on Kwan's "superstar" status and the willingness to part with top prospects like Spencer Jones to acquire him, while also acknowledging the need for bullpen and starting pitching upgrades if the Yankees are to make a serious postseason run.

In a stunning turn of events, the red-hot Steven Kwan finds himself at the center of a trade deadline firestorm, with BT and Sal ready to dissect every explosive rumor. As teams clamor for the Gold Glove outfielder's services, the burning question remains: will the Guardians deal their star, and what fiery package will it take to land him?

BT and Sal, engage in a lively discussion about a hypothetical Yankees trade. A caller proposes a blockbuster deal sending Jazz Chisholm to Cleveland for Kwan and José Ramírez. Sal, initially hesitant about giving up top prospect Jasson Dominguez, grapples with the idea of acquiring the proven talent of Ramírez. The conversation quickly escalates into a debate about player value, future potential, and whether the Yankees should make such a bold move, highlighting the hosts' differing opinions and the inherent risk-reward of high-stakes trades in Major League Baseball.

Today's encore episode features two interviews with Kevin Kwan, author of the Crazy Rich Asians series.

There's a lot of hype around disruption and building a "blue ocean" business:Where you create new, uncontested market space rather than competing head-to-head in existing markets.But here's a reality check: 90% of startups fail and 42% of those fail because they create something nobody wants.Meanwhile, savvy startups are looking for a "purple ocean" — taking proven ideas and applying them to specific verticals.On the latest episode of The High-EQ Founder, I spoke with Melissa Kwan, serial entrepreneur and CEO of eWebinar, who did exactly this by applying existing webinar technology to customer success teams tired of repeating the same demos and trainings.Melissa's been on the entrepreneurial journey for 14 years.

Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Michele Cobb chat about Catherine Ho's masterful performance of Susanna Kwan's poignant debut novel. Set in a rain-drenched near-future San Francisco, the story follows Bo, a young elder-care worker who faces uncertainty after her mother's disappearance. When Mia, Bo's centenarian neighbor, offers the solitary Bo a job, she readily accepts.
