The series completes itself with a look at the grandaddy of them all, Shaun Monson's 'Earthlings'. Although food has been the main focus of the series, this documentary also looks at the use of animals as pets (even that isn't always pretty), for clothes, for entertainment and finally for scientific experiments. Shaun's 2015 sequel 'Unity' is in the show notes below. Antony also mentions a couple of Australian documentaries that are even harder to watch than 'Earthlings' (if that's even possible), and offers some final statements and some attempt at a conclusion. General series notes We all know it's happening. We all know it's horrific but try to tell ourselves it's not that bad and if we just buy free-range eggs we can square it with our conscience and sleep peacefully. However, research and just a small sample of the copious amounts of truly heartbreaking video footage available makes it clear that it is far, far worse than we think (note- the information in this podcast series is actually quite sanitised compared to other testimonies and footage out there). Who is to blame? The consumer or the industry? It seems to be a chicken-and-egg situation that could be improved greatly by the average consumer deciding to invest time in discovering what is behind some of the shameful (and shameless) propaganda techniques employed by the food industry. As should be clear in the series, the animals are the biggest victims but not the only ones, which is obvious when you research the state of meat, eggs and dairy that is routinely passed as 'safe to consume'. To gain a better industry of how and why this nasty business is allowed to happen, a recommended companion piece is the excellent documentary 'The Corporation' and indeed the previous LALO episode on it (see show notes for both). We really owe it to ourselves and the animals who largely live miserable, hellish lives before suffering painful and brutal deaths, to make the effort in the ultimate information age to inform ourselves of the real situation. Unfettered capitalism cannot be allowed to run riot without resistance. Do I recommend watching the documentaries and other video footage available? I'm going to say yes but please proceed with caution and I would actively discourage viewing them if you feel in a vulnerable or depressive state because they have the power to make you question whether true humanity exists and how we can possibly behave in this kind of way to innocent, defenceless beings (once again, I would also include some humans in this). As the saying goes, 'once you've seen it, you can't unsee it', and as Ed Winters aka Earthling Ed says at the end of 'Land of Hope And Glory', 'you can never again say you didn't know'. While listening, consider/research the following; normalisation, desensitisation, disassociation, cultural reinforcement, cognitive dissonance, confirmation bias, power(lessness), exploitation, deception, isolation, (relative) value of life, respect, compassion, sympathy, mercy, humanity.

Allons, enfants de la patrie! Let's celeberate Bastille Day in style! And what better exemplar of the power and élan of French music than the great Gabriel Bacquier?! It was only about a year ago that I published an episode featuring Bacquier singing art song. Today's episode combines Bacquier in his more familiar guise as an opera singer, with further (and even rarer) recordings of him singing mélodies. About a year ago I coughed up a lot of dough for a super-expensive and super-rare 2-LP set entitled Panorama de la Mélodie française in which Bacquier shared the vocal honors with a French coloratura soprano who is virtually forgotten today. Today we hear his contribution to that rare 1964 release featuring songs by the usual suspects: Fauré, Debussy, Duparc, and Hahn, alongside some less-familiar repertoire by Saint-Saëns, Massenet, and Lalo. It came out to not quite enough music for a full episode, so I have supplemented it with excerpts from a great, but nearly forgotten, triumph of Bacquier's: his assumption of the title role of French composer Daniel-Lesur's 1968 opera, Andrea del Sarto. (Astute listeners will remember that last week I played Alain Vanzo singing a selection from this same piece.) In addition, I offer selections from two different 1963 aria recitals by Bacquier, one in Italian, the other in French. This assortment of material reasserts Bacquier's versatility, his solid technique, even the beauty of his voice at that point in his career. As his voice aged, Bacquier gradually assumed more bass roles and character parts but throughout the 1960s, his voice retained its youthful beauty even as his characterizations gained in precision and power. Along with a handful of other French singers during that era, Bacquier was the greatest of the great. Countermelody is the podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Host: Lalo Solorzano Guest(s): Ashley Arnold Published: July 14, 2026 Length: 14:26 Presented by: Global Training Center Summary In this second July Tips episode, host Lalo Solorzano welcomes back Ashley Arnold for a timely conversation about CTPAT and why companies should not let their security programs sit untouched on a shelf. Ashley explains that CTPAT is becoming increasingly relevant again, especially in today's enforcement-focused trade environment. While many companies may already have a program in place, the real question is whether the procedures written in the manual are actually being followed on the warehouse floor, at the front desk, by security teams, and across the full supply chain. The conversation highlights the importance of reviewing and strengthening CTPAT programs, documenting actions, training personnel, and making sure employees understand the “why” behind security requirements. Lalo and Ashley also discuss how CTPAT connects to broader business functions such as logistics, procurement, finance, HR, IT, and cybersecurity. This episode is a practical reminder that CTPAT is not a one-time validation exercise. It is an ongoing partnership and a culture of security that requires attention, participation, and continuous improvement. Main Topic / Discussion This episode focuses on CTPAT and the importance of keeping security programs active, current, and understood throughout the organization. Ashley Arnold explains that companies should review whether their CTPAT manuals reflect what is actually happening in day-to-day operations. Lalo and Ashley discuss how training, audit trails, warehouse-level awareness, cybersecurity reviews, and cross-functional participation all support a stronger security profile. They also emphasize that CTPAT can provide real operational benefits, including stronger relationships with Customs, possible reduced exam risk, smoother cargo movement, and greater internal awareness of supply chain security responsibilities. Key Takeaways • CTPAT programs should be reviewed, updated, and actively used, not simply stored away for annual review. • Companies should make sure their written CTPAT procedures match what employees are actually doing. • Training matters because employees are more likely to follow security procedures when they understand the reason behind them. • CTPAT should involve multiple departments, including warehouse operations, HR, IT, logistics, procurement, finance, and trade compliance. • Cybersecurity is an important part of the broader supply chain security conversation. • The goal of CTPAT is not just passing validation once; it is building and maintaining a culture of security.

I return to Countermelody‘s Salut à la France miniseries with a tribute to the Monaco-born French-naturalized tenor, Alain Vanzo (1923-2002). There was simply no more elegant a tenor (or any singer!) in the French operatic repertoire (and beyond) than Vanzo in his glory days in the 1960s and 1970s. I have chosen a setlist which presents him, in his core repertoire (Gounod, Massenet, Lalo), sounding truly exquise, but I also show him in music for which he was less-celebrated, but equally compelling, everything from Mozart, Rossini, and Puccini, to Mascagni and even Giordano, with even more delicious surprises along the way. Special thanks to my friend Olivier, for specifically requesting this episode. In preparing it, I became a Vanzo admirer to an all-out raving Vanzo fan girl. In listening to this, you may well find yourself in the same place that I did! Countermelody is the podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song.

Host: Lalo Solorzano Published: July 10, 2026 Length: ~12 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center Summary This week, Lalo Solorzano steps in behind the microphone while Cindy Allen enjoys a well-earned vacation—and instead of Taylor Swift, he's drawing inspiration from Metallica's "Sad But True." The title fits. Across CBP, the Department of Commerce, and the FTC, one message is becoming increasingly clear: trade compliance is becoming more data-driven, more electronic, and more demanding. From modernization initiatives and export controls to de minimis implementation and "Made in USA" enforcement, organizations are being expected to prove more, document more, and know more about every transaction. Rather than focusing on a single headline, this episode connects the dots between several regulatory developments to highlight a broader trend shaping the future of international trade. This Week in Trade CBP continues modernizing trade processes through expanded electronic filing initiatives, including e-bonds, export manifests, and vessel entry modernization. Rulemaking continues following the end of de minimis treatment, with new electronic filing requirements for informal entries and international mail shipments. CBP is evaluating additional importer identity verification requirements for customs brokers. The Department of Commerce continues advancing work on Section 232 actions, AD/CVD proceedings, and export control regulations. The FTC issued warning letters to companies regarding potentially improper "Made in USA" claims. Main Topic Although this week's news covers multiple agencies and regulatory actions, the underlying story is much larger than any one announcement. Lalo explains how CBP, Commerce, and the FTC are all moving toward the same objective: greater visibility into international trade through better data, stronger documentation, and increased accountability. Whether companies are filing customs entries, managing exports, making country-of-origin claims, or relying on e-commerce fulfillment models, compliance is becoming less about reacting to problems and more about demonstrating that internal controls, documentation, and processes are already in place. As Lalo puts it throughout the episode—"Sad but true." Key Takeaways Electronic filing and automation continue replacing paper-based trade processes. The post–de minimis environment requires greater attention to entry data and importer responsibilities. Companies should routinely evaluate potential AD/CVD exposure rather than relying solely on tariff classifications. Export compliance continues expanding into advanced technologies, software, AI, semiconductors, and biotechnology. "Made in USA" claims should be treated as compliance statements—not marketing slogans. Strong documentation and cross-functional collaboration are becoming competitive advantages.

Host: Lalo Solorzano Guest(s): Ashley Arnold Published: July 8, 2026 Length: 11:26 Presented by: Global Training Center Summary What do the World Cup, Beyoncé's world tour, and international trade compliance have in common? More than most people realize. In this July Tips episode of Simply Trade, host Lalo Solorzano welcomes Ashley Arnold as the featured tips instructor for the month. Together, they connect major global events, concerts, soccer tournaments, trade shows, and traveling equipment to one important compliance tool: the ATA Carnet. Ashley explains how ATA Carnets work like a “product passport” for goods that temporarily enter a country and then leave again. From cameras and stage equipment to trade show booths and production gear, these items are not being sold, but they still cross borders and need proper documentation. Instead of paying duties and taxes and later trying to recover them, companies can use a carnet to simplify temporary importation. This episode makes a technical trade topic practical, timely, and easy to understand by showing how compliance plays a role behind the scenes of entertainment, sports, events, and business travel. Main Topic / Discussion This episode focuses on ATA Carnets and how they support temporary international movement of goods. Ashley Arnold explains that when equipment travels internationally but is not sold and must return home, an ATA Carnet can help avoid unnecessary duties, taxes, and documentation burdens. Using examples like the World Cup, Beyoncé's world tour, international camera equipment, stage gear, and trade show booths, Lalo and Ashley show how global events depend on trade compliance. They also clarify that items intended to stay in the destination country, such as promotional giveaways or merchandise for sale, generally do not belong on a carnet. Key Takeaways • ATA Carnets are useful for goods that temporarily enter another country and return home. • Carnets can help avoid paying duties and taxes upfront and then trying to recover them later. • Not everything crossing a border is for retail sale, and that distinction matters in trade compliance. • Carnets are commonly used for cameras, stage equipment, trade show booths, and other event-related gear. • Promotional items, giveaways, merchandise for sale, and goods that will remain abroad generally should not be placed on a carnet. • Customs brokers and specialized carnet service providers can help companies determine when and how to use one.

Continuing with this most upsetting but vitally important topic, Antony completes his look at 'Land of Hope And Glory', discusses the big myth about tradition and change and then switches to a new documentary called 'The Dying Trade'. This film was made by Jack Hancock, who gives the issue a new spin by exploring his relationship with his father, who just happens to be a man-and-boy slaughterhouse worker (Antony avoids euphemistic words like 'abattoir' throughout this series). Along the way, Jack meets a Holocaust survivor and such legends as Temple Grandin and Gail Eisnitz. As Upton Sinclair famously said, 'it's difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on him not understanding it'. This second part ends with testimonies from some rather brave slaughterhouse workers, who are largely victims themselves working in a stressful and terrifying environment which is, as Shaun Monson puts it, 'both a kitchen and a toilet'. General series notes We all know it's happening. We all know it's horrific but try to tell ourselves it's not that bad and if we just buy free-range eggs we can square it with our conscience and sleep peacefully. However, research and just a small sample of the copious amounts of truly heartbreaking video footage available makes it clear that it is far, far worse than we think (note- the information in this podcast series is actually quite sanitised compared to other testimonies and footage out there). Who is to blame? The consumer or the industry? It seems to be a chicken-and-egg situation that could be improved greatly by the average consumer deciding to invest time in discovering what is behind some of the shameful (and shameless) propaganda techniques employed by the food industry. As should be clear in the series, the animals are the biggest victims but not the only ones, which is obvious when you research the state of meat, eggs and dairy that is routinely passed as 'safe to consume'. To gain a better industry of how and why this nasty business is allowed to happen, a recommended companion piece is the excellent documentary 'The Corporation' and indeed the previous LALO episode on it (see show notes for both). We really owe it to ourselves and the animals who largely live miserable, hellish lives before suffering painful and brutal deaths, to make the effort in the ultimate information age to inform ourselves of the real situation. Unfettered capitalism cannot be allowed to run riot without resistance. Do I recommend watching the documentaries and other video footage available? I'm going to say yes but please proceed with caution and I would actively discourage viewing them if you feel in a vulnerable or depressive state because they have the power to make you question whether true humanity exists and how we can possibly behave in this kind of way to innocent, defenceless beings (once again, I would also include some humans in this). As the saying goes, 'once you've seen it, you can't unsee it', and as Ed Winters aka Earthling Ed says at the end of 'Land of Hope And Glory', 'you can never again say you didn't know'.

This is the first part of a series on a topic which could be the most important and urgent ever covered on this podcast. There's no doubt that the research, including lots of video footage, has been the most upsetting and harrowing, but there has been a strangely cathartic quality to it as well. In this part, Antony talks about his relationship with animals, the video that was the final trigger (or final straw) for these episodes, and then begins to go through the content of the film 'Land of Hope and Glory'. This documentary is known as a UK version of the well-known animal rights/use & abuse film 'Earthlings', which will be covered later in the series. General series notes We all know it's happening. We all know it's horrific but try to tell ourselves it's not that bad and if we just buy free-range eggs we can square it with our conscience and sleep peacefully. However, research and just a small sample of the copious amounts of truly heartbreaking video footage available makes it clear that it is far, far worse than we think (note- the information in this podcast series is actually quite sanitised compared to other testimonies and footage out there).

Host: Lalo Solorzano Guest(s): Denise Published: June 30, 2026 Length: 21:23 Presented by: Global Training Center Summary Trade compliance does not happen in a vacuum. In this episode, Lalo Solorzano wraps up the four-part series with Denise by exploring why cross-functional training and stronger internal partnerships are essential for smoother global trade operations. From classification and customs audits to cost forecasting and border delays, the conversation highlights how trade compliance depends on collaboration across departments that may not always realize they play a role in trade. Denise explains why teams like engineering, finance, procurement, sourcing, logistics, and supply chain all bring critical knowledge to the table. When those teams operate in silos, companies face rushed decisions, unclear ownership, duplicated work, and avoidable compliance risk. But when they align around shared goals, define roles early, communicate clearly, and close the loop after decisions are made, trade becomes less of a roadblock and more of a strategic partner. This episode offers practical guidance for building trust, reducing last-minute fire drills, and turning one-off requests into long-term business relationships. Main Topic / Discussion This episode focuses on the importance of cross-functional partnerships in trade compliance. Lalo and Denise discuss how departments outside of trade compliance—such as engineering, finance, procurement, logistics, sourcing, and supply chain—directly influence trade outcomes, even when they do not see themselves as part of the trade process. Denise breaks the process into three practical phases: before the work begins, while the work is underway, and after decisions are made. She explains how teams can align on shared goals, clarify expectations, make collaboration easier, and recognize contributions to strengthen future partnerships. The episode also uses tariff classification during a product launch as a practical example of what can go wrong when teams do not communicate early, and what changes when companies create a structured, proactive partnership around trade decisions. Key Takeaways • Trade compliance is most effective when departments work as partners, not isolated teams. • Shared goals help turn competing priorities into collaborative problem-solving. • Clear roles and expectations reduce defensiveness, confusion, and duplicated work. • Strong cross-functional relationships lead to fewer border issues, better cost predictability, and a stronger position with customs authorities.

1) Montaña: Hace unos años tuve un gran amigo que se llamaba Lalo. Lalo es un tipo que siempre cae bien, con una sonrisa siempre en la boca, siempre simpático y con algún chiste por contar. Creo que ninguna fiesta o asado es lo mismo con él que sin él. Contaba sus historias y nos descostillábamos de la risa, era una máquina de hacer chistes. Es de esas personas que en primera instancia las necesitamos siempre, pero nunca imaginé el infierno que vivía. Comprendí con el tiempo que Lalo cada mañana hace un esfuerzo sobrehumano para salir de la cama, le cuesta un horror tener que vivir un día más. Por fuera, a la vista de todos, parece un tipo feliz y superado con las cosas que le tocó vivir, pero en su interior se siente desesperanzado, agotado y hasta dolido. Asustado y solo, me animo a decirte que sufre de una depresión crónica que lo paraliza y le va cortando ese espíritu alegre en cuotas, mientras pasa el tiempo, pero, no hay prótesis para un espíritu amputado. El famoso Robbie Williams, antes de quitarse la vida, puso la frase “ Todo lo que se necesita para esconder un alma herida, es una sonrisa falsa, y nunca se darán cuenta de lo lastimado que estás”. Él también dijo en otra ocasión: “Pensé que lo peor en la vida era terminar solo, y no lo era, lo peor en la vida es terminar con gente que te hace sentir solo”. También, como mi amigo Lalo, vivía un infierno, por eso para sanar hay que ver el todo.2) Leproso: Hay gente que tiene la lepra de vivir aparentando y buscando agradar, pero vos no sos como los demás. Por eso ponete las pilas, amigo, amiga. Pasas el día intentando parecerte a ellos, y eso es agotador. Hay veces que uno se hace el interesante, pero, más que interesante, uno parece perdido. Eso ocurre cuando uno pasa demasiado tiempo mirando a los demás y muy poco tiempo mirándose a sí mismo. Esa es la lepra que te quita lo hermoso del rostro de tu vida. Hay veces que empiezas a construirte, en vez de descubrirte. Aprendí en estos años que no tengo que querer ser el mejor, tengo que aprender a ser único. Dios y yo creemos en ti. 3) Digas: Una vez me tocó predicar a sacerdotes. Era lo más duro para mí, porque son gente sabia y medio que “difícil de entrar”. Entonces, mi guía espiritual, me contó una historia: Había una vez un hombre muy inteligente. Había estudiado muchísimo, se había formado con los mejores, había leído millones de libros, sabía muchos idiomas y hasta se licenció en Biblia. Él sabía que era muy inteligente. Un día decidió ir a visitar a un sabio del cual muchas personas hablaban. Llegó a la casa, era muy simple, no había libros a la vista, el sabio lo invitó a pasar y le empezó a servir té. El hombre se sentó y aceptó el té, mientras le contaba al sabio todo lo que él sabía, con quién había estudiado, todo lo que había leído. El sabio mientras servía la taza de té lo escuchaba, pero algo pasó… el té rebasó la taza y empezó a caer todo el té al piso y ensució todo. El hombre lo miraba y no entendía, pero le gritó al sabio diciéndole “Espere, ¿no ve que la taza está llena? Sigue cayendo té”. El sabio dejó la tetera, dejó de servir y le dijo “Igual que esta taza, vos llegaste lleno. Cómo voy a enseñarte algo si no hay espacio adentro tuyo para recibir algo nuevo.” El hombre se quedó en silencio. Era la primera vez en años que no tenía nada que decir. La moraleja del cuento es que el mayor obstáculo para aprender no es la ignorancia, es creer que ya lo sabemos todo. Así que, para aprender algo nuevo, hay que soltar algo viejo. Algo bueno está por venir.

Host: Lalo Solorzano, Denise Smalls-Altagracia Published: June 2, 2026 Length: 20:17 Presented by: Global Training Center Summary In this Simply Trade Tips episode, Lalo Solorzano and Denise Smalls-Altagracia break down one of the most important but often misunderstood parts of U.S. import compliance: Partner Government Agencies, or PGAs. While many importers focus mainly on CBP, duties, tariffs, and broker filings, Denise explains why customs clearance is often much bigger than paperwork and duty payments. PGAs regulate the products themselves, covering areas such as public health, safety, agriculture, environmental standards, transportation, and security. That means an entry may look correct from a customs perspective but still be delayed, detained, or refused if agency-specific requirements are missed. Denise also highlights common agencies importers may encounter, including FDA, USDA, APHIS, EPA, and CPSC, and explains why documentation, product classification, and early planning are essential. This episode matters because PGA compliance directly affects speed, predictability, cost control, and supply chain reliability. Importers who understand agency requirements before shipments move are far better positioned to avoid costly surprises and keep trade moving. Main Topic / Discussion This episode focuses on Partner Government Agencies and their role in the import process. Lalo and Denise explain that CBP may serve as the primary border authority, but PGAs are the subject matter experts that determine whether certain products meet U.S. requirements and can legally enter commerce. The discussion covers what PGAs are, why they matter, which agencies importers commonly encounter, what documentation may be required, and how PGA compliance should be treated as a business function rather than a last-minute customs task. Key Takeaways • PGAs are federal agencies that work with CBP to regulate specific imported products. • Import compliance is not only about duties, tariffs, and customs paperwork. • Agencies such as FDA, USDA, APHIS, EPA, and CPSC may require additional documentation or review depending on the product. • Missing or inaccurate PGA information can lead to delays, detention, refusal, penalties, or supply chain disruption. • Strong PGA compliance improves shipment speed, predictability, cost control, and business reputation. • Companies should identify agency requirements before purchase orders are issued or goods are shipped.

Host: Lalo Solorzano and Trudy Wilson Guest(s): N/A Published: May 27, 2026 Length: 16:11 Presented by: Global Training Center Summary In this episode of Simply Trade, Lalo Solorzano and Trudy Wilson continue the Trudy's Trade Tips series with another practical discussion on USMCA. This time, the focus is on documentation, certification requirements, and why tariff classification is the foundation for making accurate free trade agreement claims. Trudy explains one of the biggest changes from NAFTA to USMCA: the old formal certificate of origin is gone. Instead, companies must ensure their USMCA certification contains the required minimum data elements, regardless of the format used. That flexibility can be helpful, but it also creates room for confusion when documents are unclear or incomplete. The conversation also highlights the importance of identifying the certifier, exporter, producer, and importer, along with product descriptions, classifications, origin criteria, blanket periods, and certification statements. Trudy and Lalo then explain why tariff classification must come before USMCA qualification. If a company does not understand the classification of the finished product and its components, it cannot properly apply USMCA rules of origin. This episode matters because USMCA savings are valuable, but only when claims are documented, supported, and correctly qualified. Main Topic / Discussion This episode focuses on the documentation requirements for USMCA and the importance of tariff classification in determining whether goods qualify under the agreement. Trudy explains that USMCA no longer requires the old NAFTA certificate format. Instead, companies must provide the required minimum data elements in whatever format they choose. This includes identifying the certifier, exporter, producer, and importer, along with the product description, tariff classification, origin criterion, blanket period, authorized signature, date, and certification statement. A key point is that documentation must be clear. If a shipment includes both USMCA-qualifying goods and non-qualifying goods, the paperwork must clearly identify which items qualify. Mixing unclear origin declarations with USMCA claims can create confusion and risk. The discussion then shifts to tariff classification. Lalo and Trudy emphasize that “all roads lead to the HTS.” USMCA qualification depends on understanding the classification of the finished product and the classifications of the components, parts, or ingredients used to make it. Without that foundation, companies cannot properly apply product-specific rules or determine whether a tariff shift has occurred. Key Takeaways • USMCA does not require the old NAFTA certificate form, but it does require specific minimum data elements. • Companies may use their own format for USMCA certification as long as the required information is included. • The certifier, exporter, producer, and importer must be clearly identified with the required contact details. • Documentation must clearly show which goods qualify for USMCA and which do not. • Tariff classification is the foundation for USMCA qualification. • Companies must know the classification of the finished good and the components used to make it. • Product-specific rules under USMCA depend on classification and often require analyzing tariff shifts. • Lalo and Trudy recommend understanding tariff classification before taking on USMCA qualification work.

Host: Lalo Solorzano Published: May 21, 2026 Length: ~22 min. Presented by: Global Training Center Summary In this special 500th episode of Simply Trade, Lalo Solorzano steps behind the mic solo for the first time to reflect on how the podcast began, how it has evolved, and where it may be headed next. What started during the pandemic as a way to recreate the casual, meaningful trade conversations usually found at conferences has grown into a platform with multiple hosts, recurring segments, conference partnerships, and a loyal trade community. Lalo shares the origin story of the show, from its early days with Andy Shiles to the addition of voices like Annik, Cindy Allen, Renee, Julie, Warrington Ellicott, Trudy, and others. He also talks openly about the challenges of producing a podcast, the decision to remain mostly sponsor-free, and the importance of keeping the show focused on authentic conversations rather than outside influence. This milestone episode is part reflection, part roadmap, and part thank-you note to the listeners, hosts, partners, and trade professionals who have helped Simply Trade reach 500 episodes. Main Topic / Discussion This episode centers on the 500-episode milestone of Simply Trade and the evolution of the podcast from a pandemic-era idea into a broader trade media platform. Lalo reflects on the show's beginnings, the people who helped shape it, and the different series that have emerged over time, including Cindy's trade commentary, Canadian-focused episodes, professional development tips, conference partnerships, and potential future segments. He also shares what may be coming next, including more trade crime episodes, possible Mexico-focused content, renewed “Simply Trade Folks” conversations, and more technology-focused discussions around AI and trade tools. Key Takeaways • Simply Trade began as a way to recreate informal trade conversations during the pandemic. • The show has grown from a simple host-led podcast into a larger platform with multiple voices and recurring segments. • Lalo wants the podcast to remain authentic, open, and mostly free from sponsor influence. • Future content may include trade crime stories, Mexico-focused episodes, technology discussions, and more career-centered conversations with trade professionals.

Jackson Boxer and Eduardo “Lalo” Yishima joined us at TAQ to talk about relaunching one of London's original Mexican restaurants into something far more ambitious, produce-led and reflective of modern Mexican cuisine. Jackson explained how the former Taqueria had become trapped trying to compete on cheapness rather than quality, despite having an incredible location and loyal following. The pair discussed how London's understanding of Mexican food has transformed over the last 20 years, with diners now far more educated and excited by authentic flavours, proper tortillas and regional cooking. Bringing Lalo back from Mexico to lead the kitchen allowed them to completely rethink the menu, from nixtamalized heritage corn tortillas to carnitas, tuna tostadas and deeply flavourful salsas that feel genuinely rooted in Mexico while using exceptional British produce.A huge part of the conversation centred around ingredients and the realities of running restaurants in modern London. Jackson spoke passionately about using rare breed pork, Yorkshire grass-fed beef and whole Cornish tuna across the restaurant group, while Lalo described the emotional significance of properly nixtamalized tortillas and imported Mexican chilis. The pair explained how London diners are now sophisticated enough to appreciate bold, complex Mexican flavours and why TAQ's relaunch focused on quality and value rather than racing to the bottom on pricing. Jackson also opened up about the pressures restaurateurs face today — from social media expectations to shrinking margins — while teasing his upcoming Exmouth Market opening, Vespa, where dishes like coal-grilled squid stuffed with pork and prawn boudin will headline the menu.To close, the conversation drifted into travel, comfort food and personal inspirations. Jackson recommended an Italian train journey through Bologna, Florence, Rome and Naples as the ultimate food weekend, while Lalo made a passionate case for Buenos Aires and Argentina's bakery, pizza and wine culture. Their “Go To Hall of Fame” dishes perfectly reflected the emotional core of the episode: Lalo chose his mother's pozole, a deeply nostalgic Mexican soup tied to his childhood, while Jackson described his mother's fruit tarts made with hand-grated frozen butter pastry as one of the greatest things he's ever eaten. Across the episode, what stood out most was the pair's shared belief that food is ultimately about generosity, memory and craft — whether that's a taco, a trompo, a tart or a late-night tortilla folded around cheese and hot sauce.Watch and Subscribe To Our Youtube Videos Here - https://www.youtube.com/@gotofoodOrder Ben's Incredible Book - All You Can Eat - By Clicking Here - https://www.amazon.co.uk/All-You-Can-Eat-British/dp/1805221523Get 2 Months of Blinq For Free - With Code - GOTOBLINQ - https://blinqme.com/Order The Greatest Meat In The Country From HG Walter Here & Have Restaurant Quality Meals From Home - www.hgwalter.com Hosted on Acast.

The encounter between Piers Morgan and Russell Brand in April was, if nothing else, compelling and revealing. Despite their very different personae, they have had strangely similar journeys through some of the darker aspects of media and come out the other side, each now positioning himself as part of ‘alternative media', whatever that exactly means, while still in contact with the mainstream. Antony breaks down a quite bizarre conversation, with both protagonists wrestling for control and trying to direct things into the areas they would prepare to discuss. There are a few truth bombs detonated here, which many alt. media commentators seem to have missed as they focus only on a few moments of dead air. Did Piers and Russell simply expose one another for who & what they are? How sincere are they, or is it all a grift from people well schooled in how to capture attention and often direct it? You decide (the full interview is in the show notes) Following this, Antony offers a book recommendation, a couple of comments on a mental health shenanigans, and a few details of an amazing athletic achievement in London a few weeks ago Enjoy!

Greg Davidson is the Co-Founder and CEO of Lalo, a modern baby and toddler brand built around the idea that new parents deserve better: better design, better guidance, and products that actually grow with their kids. Greg's path to founding a baby brand is not what you'd expect. He came up through a series of fast-growing startups in sales and go-to-market roles at Elastic, Krossover, WayUp, and Artsy before co-founding Lalo in 2017 with his former WayUp colleague, Michael Wieder. Neither of them had kids at the time. His first child was born in 2020, just after officially launching the business in 2019 and right before a global pandemic. They were somehow still able to grow 400% that first year. Lalo has since raised a $10.1 million series A, and expanded into Target, Babylist, Pottery Barn Kids and beyond. Greg is based in Miami and is a dad of three.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode of Simply Trade, host Lalo Solorzano is joined by Trudy Wilson, longtime Global Training Center instructor and trade compliance expert, for the first installment of what Lalo calls “Trudy's Trade Tips.” This conversation focuses on a foundational topic that continues to create confusion across import and export teams: Incoterms 2020. Trudy breaks down why companies should not simply default to familiar terms like FOB or Ex Works, especially when containerized freight, export filing, loading responsibility, and risk exposure are involved. Key Takeaways Incoterms are voluntary, but they help buyers and sellers clearly define responsibility. There are 11 Incoterms, but most companies should focus primarily on the 7 “any mode” terms. FOB, CIF, CFR, and FAS are often misused when goods are moving in containers. “Ocean shipment” does not automatically mean one of the ocean-only terms applies. Ex Works may look simple for the seller, but it can create serious compliance and operational risk. Export filing, proof of export, loading responsibility, and product destination still matter. AI and automation can help, but trade professionals still need the foundation to validate results. Featured Discussion Trudy explains why the four sea and inland waterway terms should generally be reserved for goods that are “pumped or dumped” onto a vessel, such as oil, grain, minerals, or ore. For most containerized shipments, even when moving by ocean, companies should usually be evaluating the seven any-mode Incoterms instead. She also cautions against the casual use of Ex Works, reminding exporters that “easy” does not always mean low risk. Memorable Quote “If you don't have the foundation right, you're going to have issues with the tariffs anyway.” Hosts Lalo Solorzano Trudy Wilson About Simply Trade Simply Trade is a podcast by Global Training Center, created for trade compliance professionals, importers, exporters, customs brokers, and supply chain leaders who want practical conversations about global trade.

Retired agent Ed Mireles reviews several true stories from his 15-plus years of undercover work using the alias Lalo. He recounts his assignments posing as a notorious drug trafficker, transporter, and money launderer in Miami, El Paso, Tucson, and other areas along the Southwest border between Mexico and the United States. Ed, aka Lalo, managed several warehouses in Miami, Florida, and he expanded to operate a transportation business and later a trucking company. The quantity of drugs he reportedly moved made him highly sought-after by the cartels and law enforcement. Ed and his wife, Elizabeth "Liz" Mireles, who is also a retired FBI agent, are the authors of LALO: Undercover Tales of Money, Drugs and Lies, a book based on the many true stories about Ed's undercover roles.

Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy step away from bourbon for a rare tequila-focused Happy Hour, pouring LALO Tequila Blanco and finding a surprisingly smooth, easy-sipping pour with notes of agave, citrus, tropical fruit, and a little creaminess on the palate. Tony tries tequila because of Passover restrictions, Fingers brings the bottle on a recommendation from a liquor store clerk, and the two of them try to figure out whether this blanco belongs in the liquor cabinet at around $45 a bottle. The guys spend most of the episode digging into what makes this tequila work, why it drinks easier than expected, and whether tequila fans would see LALO as a legit sipping option. The Alec Bradley Safe Keepings Toro is along for the ride, but this Happy Hour really belongs to the bottle. Also in the mix: a little talk about news, travel, cast iron cooking, and the usual Eat Drink Smoke Happy Hour wandering into places it probably didn’t plan to go.

Chef and restaurateur Eduardo Garcia, better known as “Lalo,” started his cooking journey in his mother’s kitchen. His mother didn’t have any formal training, but prepared food through her own instincts and deep knowledge of flavors. As a child, Garcia picked fruits and vegetables on the migrant route from Florida to Michigan. It gave him firsthand experience of the work that it takes to harvest the produce that ends up on our plate. Today, Lalo Garcia is one of the most celebrated chefs in Latin America. Today, we talk about his journey. His immigrant story is one familiar to those who have crossed the border.

Today's featured artist is, I hope, a name that some of you will at least have heard of: the French mezzo-soprano Germaine Cernay, born Germaine Pointu in Le Havre in 1900 and dying tragically young of an epileptic event in war-torn Paris at the age of only 43. Here is an artist who strikes a balance between poise and white heat, with a voice of exquisite timbre anchored by a flawless technique. Between making her debut at the Opéra-Comique in 1927 and her early retirement from her singing career the year before her death with the intention of becoming a nun, Cernay was a prodigious recording artist and a habituée of both the operatic stage and the concert platform. Today's episode presents her in her core operatic repertoire (Debussy, Fauré, Mascagni, Bizet, Thomas, and Saint-Saëns), with a strong emphasis on the works of Jules Massenet (Werther, Don Quichotte, Thérèse, Le Cid, Hérodiade, Sapho). Cernay is also heard at the outer edges of the mélodie repertoire, singing songs by Charles Bordes, Xavier Leroux, and Georges Dandelot, alongside the more familiar Lalo, Chabrier, and Brahms, not to forget a smattering of operetta. Some of her strongest recordings feature stellar contributions by fellow singers Georges Thill, Arthur Endrèze, André d'Arkor, Roger Bourdin, and Charles Friant. In recent years, even without a sytstematic reissue of her recorded oeuvre, her reputation has only increased, and she is now recognized as a standard-bearer of the French mezzo-soprano repertoire. Countermelody is the podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Hosts: Lalo Solorzano Guests: Eric Hargraves – Elliott Davis Cindy Allen – Trade Force Multiplier Mark Segrist – Sandler, Travis & Rosenberg Recorded Live At: The International Compliance Professionals Association (ICPA) Annual Conference in San Antonio. Episode Summary In this special live conference episode, Lalo sits down with three trade experts at the ICPA Annual Conference to unpack one of the biggest trade law developments in years: the Supreme Court ruling limiting the use of IEEPA for tariff authority. Together, Eric Hargraves, Cindy Allen, and Mark Segrist break down what the decision actually means, how the administration pivoted immediately to other tariff tools, and why importers should not assume refunds are guaranteed. The conversation dives into the legal fallout, enforcement uncertainty, and compliance strategies companies should be thinking about right now, including protests, litigation strategies, and how trade compliance is rapidly becoming a C-suite level issue. If you're trying to understand the real-world impact of the ruling, tariff stacking, and what actions importers should be taking today, this discussion delivers practical insight straight from the conference floor. Key Takeaways The Supreme Court Limited Presidential Tariff Authority Under IEEPA The Court ruled that the president cannot impose tariffs using IEEPA, emphasizing that taxation powers belong to Congress under the Constitution. The Administration Immediately Pivoted to Other Tools With IEEPA tariffs struck down, the administration quickly shifted toward Section 122 and other statutory authorities, showing that tariff policy will continue through different mechanisms. Tariff Stacking and Complexity Are Increasing Importers now face potential layers of tariffs under Section 232, Section 301, Section 122, and other mechanisms, making duty calculations and compliance far more complex. Refunds Are Not Guaranteed Even though the ruling invalidated certain tariffs, experts warn that refunds are not automatic, and companies must actively preserve their rights. Importers Must Take Action Now Companies should be monitoring liquidation dates, filing protests when necessary, and considering litigation options to protect their ability to recover duties. Trade Compliance Is Now a Strategic Function Trade and customs issues have moved from back-office compliance work to strategic discussions at the executive level, impacting supply chains, costs, and global operations. Notable Topics Discussed The Supreme Court decision on IEEPA tariffs Section 122 as the administration's immediate fallback tool How tariff stacking affects real duty rates Litigation strategies and the growing role of the Court of International Trade Why companies should file protests and protect their refund rights The rise of trade compliance as a strategic corporate function Resources & References International Compliance Professionals Association (ICPA) ICPA on LinkedIn ICPA LinkedIn Group About the Guests Eric Hargraves A trade and customs specialist with Elliott Davis who advises companies on navigating complex regulatory frameworks and trade enforcement issues. Cindy Allen Founder of Trade Force Multiplier and a leading voice in customs compliance, supply chain strategy, and global trade education.
