The crew unpacks the significance of the Trade[XYZ] S&P 500 license, why Vanity Fair's recent crypto piece is so controversial and whether the EF is returning to “communism.” Thank you to our sponsors! Fuse: The Energy Network – Shift your energy use and earn rewards. MultiChain Advisors - The Growth & Capital Markets Partner You Need Trade[XYZ] has obtained a license from the S&P Dow Jones Indices to offer S&P 500 perps on Hyperliquid. A crypto trader lost $50 million in a single Aave swap. A Vanity Fair crypto shoot and article is sparking backlash. And the Ethereum Foundation has unveiled a “new” mandate. Uneasy Money hosts Kain Warwick, Luca Netz and Taylor Monahan dig into what the S&P license means for crypto with Kain saying it is not priced in yet. They also debate whether DeFi frontends should block high slippage swaps after the recent Aave swap gone wrong. Plus, did Vanity Fair intend to mock crypto? Luca shares how he dodged the bullet. Tay explains why OpenSea founder Devin Finzer and his wife got the most heat. Kain lets slip how he found himself on the New York Times for buying Trump's memecoin. And why Kain does not think the Ethereum Foundation's new mandate matters in the long-run.

What do you get when an introvert ends up running one of the most iconic hospitality resorts in the country?A very good reminder that the loudest person in the room isn't always the best leaderThis week, after what feels like about 17 years of trying to line up diaries, I finally sat down with the legend that is Chris Eigelaar, Managing Director of The Belfry Hotel & Resort.Now, if you know The Belfry, you'll know it's not exactly a sleepy little B&B with a bowl of mints on reception.We're talking world famous golf, huge events, 468 bedrooms, 1,100+ team members, a £90m transformation, and the kind of sporting history that makes golf fans go a bit weak at the knees.And yet, underneath all of that, Chris is one of the most grounded, thoughtful leaders you could hope to meet.We talk about growing up in hotels in South Africa, arriving in London with a thousand quid and a return ticket, learning that he was a much better front of house operator than chef… and why understanding yourself might be one of the most important things you ever do in leadership.Also, yes, there is a story involving a documentary, a fake power cut, and a perfectly timed on camera jump.Which is, obviously, exactly the sort of thing I'm here for.In this episode, Chris and I get into…• Growing up in a hotel family, where hospitality was basically in the wallpaper• His dad giving him two career options: the Navy… or hospitality• Starting out wanting to be a chef before being politely redirected elsewhere• Moving to London with £1,000, traveller's cheques, and vibes• Picking up whatever work he could get, including some wonderfully random shifts• Helping open the Sofitel St James and building his early career in luxury hospitality• Why he briefly left hotels… then realised he missed the madness• Landing at The Belfry and leading one of the most iconic resorts in the UK• What it really takes to deliver a £90m investment programme in a live business• Why he believes in a flat structure, open doors, and walking the floor• Learning not to force yourself into someone else's leadership mould• Why being an introvert in hospitality is not a weakness• The power of good mentors… and the lessons bad ones teach you too• Resilience, togetherness, and what tough moments reveal about teams• Why one great golf shot is enough to make you think you're Tiger Woods for 3 secondsSome cracking quotes from Chris“Hospitality chooses you”“Just be comfortable with yourself”“My role is to remove barriers so people can do their jobs”“There's no right or wrong leadership style, it's how you use it”“If one person does it, everybody does it, that's hospitality”Why this episode is worth your earsThis one's for anyone who's ever felt like they didn't quite fit the “standard” idea of what a hospitality leader is supposed to look like.Chris is proof that you don't need to be the biggest voice in the room.You don't need to be all jazz hands and noise (Sorry, I'll tone it down... I won't)You just need to know your people, know yourself, and create the sort of environment where others can do their best work.Also, if you fancy a bit of behind-the-scenes Belfry brilliance, leadership wisdom, golf chat, and a story about jumping away from an electrical unit on camera…You're in very safe hands.Show PartnersA big shout out to the first of today's show partner, RotaCloud, the people management platform for shift-based teams.RotaCloud lets managers create and share rotas, record attendance, and manage annual leave in minutes — all from a single, web-based app.It makes work simple for your team, too, allowing them to check their rotas, request holiday, and even pick up extra shifts straight from their phones.Try RotaCloud's time-saving tools today by heading to https://rotacloud.com/philThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

Leah Marcus and Yasaman Bakhtiar are the co-founders of Good Girl Snacks, the brand that turned a TikTok obsession into a full-blown business.These two best friends didn't come from food. They came from corporate. Leah was in marketing at a tech startup, Yas was at an auction house debating whether to go back for her master's. What changed everything was a lot of TikTok scrolling and asking one question: why is everyone obsessed with pickles right now, and why isn't there a brand that actually feels like us? So at 23, they quit their jobs, hired a food scientist, found a manufacturer in the middle of Massachusetts, and started building. Documenting every messy, unfiltered moment along the way on social. By the time they launched in February 2024, they already had a community waiting. They sold out in under three months, closed a pre-seed round in two weeks, had a collab with Khloé Kardashian, and are now on shelves at Erewhon, Whole Foods, and Bristol Farms. All with zero dollars spent on ads.In this episode, we get into all of it. The leap they took before they were ready, the social media playbook they built from scratch, and the production nightmares that would have made most people quit. But this isn't really a story about pickles. It's about what it actually feels like to bet on yourself when the odds aren't clearly in your favor. Leah and Yas are proof that the founders who win aren't always the most experienced. They're just the ones who refused to stop.In this episode, we'll talk about:* Leaving corporate jobs and feeling the pull toward entrepreneurship. [02:12]* How a TikTok pickle trend sparked the idea for Good Girl Snacks. [03:58]* Doing the research before quitting their jobs. [06:52]* The confidence that comes from building with the right co-founder. [09:10]* Taking the leap and launching the business in 2023. [11:20]* Building hype on social media months before the product existed. [12:33]* Creating a viral content series to grow an audience. [14:30]* Why consistency and daily posting built early momentum. [18:19]* Finding the first manufacturing partner and navigating production challenges. [19:36]* “Cucumber Gate” and the realities of building a food product. [23:06]* Turning startup mishaps into viral storytelling content. [26:31]* Why resilience and problem-solving matter more than glamour in entrepreneurship. [29:00]* Building community through events, activations, and everyday customers. [31:15]* How influencer relationships and brand partnerships fueled growth. [32:19]* The Khloe Kardashian moment and what celebrity exposure really does for a brand. [34:09]* Landing early retail wins with Pop Up Grocer, Erewhon, and Whole Foods. [38:04]* Raising their first investment round after proving product-market fit. [40:00]* The long-term vision for Good Girl Snacks beyond pickles. [42:23]* Lessons about entrepreneurship they learned the hard way. [43:23]* The sacrifices founders make that people rarely see.

So You Want To Be A Writer with Valerie Khoo and Allison Tait: Australian Writers' Centre podcast
The 1990s are often looked back at fondly as a largely peaceful time. But for former Australian ambassador to Germany Ian Kemish, the conflicts in the former Yugoslavia and Northern Ireland featured largely in his job at the time. Now retired, he has chosen to set his debut thriller novel, Two Islands, during this timeframe. In this episode he shares his inspiration for the book, the real life characters and how to capture the nuances of the story and the decade. What do you do after you retire from a celebrated 25-year diplomatic career? Play golf? Take up birdwatching? No, you write your first novel. 00:00 Welcome07:26 Writing tip: Ask “why?” to being blocked10:31 WIN!: Aubrey Wants to Die by Pip Knight12:15 Word of the week: ‘Absquatulate’16:16 Writer in residence: Ian Kemish17:14 Ian describes what Two Islands is about19:34 What are the two islands in question?22:04 Remembering Yugoslavia and Northern Ireland23:30 Inspiration for the novel25:53 Why the Balkans?27:35 The inspiration for the Australian character, Anita30:01 Writing about the 1990s: distance before the internet31:22 How the story took shape34:07 Researching the book38:15 From bad poetry to diplomacy: finding his writing voice40:52 The challenges of writing fiction for the first time45:28 Landing the publishing deal47:54 What’s next?49:09 Ian’s tip for writers50:32 Final thoughts Read the show notes Connect with Valerie and listeners in the podcast community on Facebook Visit WritersCentre.com.au | ValerieKhoo.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Relationships Course LAUNCHED:https://programs.wenzes.com/courses/epicrelationships_FREE Poster - INFJ EPIC RELATIONSHIPS CHECKLIST:
For this episode of My Martin Amis, we're plugging into the London recording studio of the New Statesman magazine.From the intro: "Founded by economists and social reformers Sidney and Beatrice Webb and the Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw in 1913, the New Statesman has enjoyed a long history of finding and fostering journalistic and literary talent. In the early Seventies, the paper went through a succession of editors, during which time its circulation hit a low ebb. Among its staff then were two bright talents who became close friends through their employer. They sported flared trousers, yellowed fingertips and hair of thickness and length relatively similar to my guests. Their names were Christopher Hitchens and Martin Amis. Half a century later, minus the flares and barely disguised homoerotic tension (although who knows what we'll learn on this episode), a new duo stalks the newsroom."Jack's guests on this episode are George Monaghan, the New Statesman's junior commissioning editor, and Nick Harris, its ideas editor. At 27, they are both in the prime of their youth, yet have chosen to speak about what Amis taught them in Experience on the eternally fertile subjects of love, life, and literature.FOLLOW US ON X: @mymartinamisYOUTUBE: @mymartinamispod Hosted on Acast.

Landing at Dublin Airport is often the first stop in your Ireland journey, but one of the first questions many travelers have is how to get into the city centre. A lot of people immediately look for the cheapest option. That makes sense, but the cheapest option may not always be the best choice depending on how many people are traveling, how much luggage you have, and where your hotel is located. Dublin Airport to Dublin City Centre Transportation Options Before we look at the ways to get into Dublin city centre, there is one important thing to know. There is no train connection at Dublin Airport. Despite being Ireland's busiest airport, the terminals are not connected to the rail network. That surprises quite a few travelers who expect to find a train station like they would at many major European airports. Instead, transportation from Dublin Airport to the city centre is handled by taxis and bus services. When you arrive at the airport, your main options are taxi, Dublin Express, AirCoach, or Dublin Bus. Each works well depending on your budget, luggage, and where your accommodation is located. Here's what to know before deciding which option works best for you. Taxi A taxi is the most convenient way to travel from Dublin Airport to the city centre. Taxis are available directly outside the terminal and will drop you right at your hotel door. After a long flight, that convenience can be worth the extra cost. If you are traveling with multiple people or a lot of luggage, the price of a taxi may actually make more sense than a bus. From personal experience, dragging luggage several blocks after getting off a bus is not something I'm eager to repeat. Now I often choose the taxi simply because it brings me exactly where I want to go. Dublin Express Dublin Express is one of the faster bus options from the airport. Two main routes operate from both terminals, the 782 and 784, with departures approximately every 15 to 20 minutes. Tickets can be purchased online or at the airport. One thing to note is that the Leap card is not accepted on Dublin Express, which can be important if you planned to use that transit card during your time in Dublin. The service makes limited stops, which can make it quicker than other bus options. AirCoach AirCoach is another comfortable option that connects Dublin Airport to the city centre. Buses run regularly and tickets can be purchased online or at the airport. Many travelers find Air Coach to be clean, comfortable, and easy to use, especially after a long flight. Like Dublin Express, the stops are more limited, which can help reduce travel time. Dublin Bus Dublin Bus is the most affordable way to reach the city centre. Routes such as 16 and 41 connect the airport with different parts of Dublin. The fare is inexpensive, but you must have exact change if paying with cash, or use a Leap card. While it's the cheapest option, it also tends to make more stops, which can increase travel time. Choosing the Right Option for Your Trip The best option depends on your travel situation. Consider these three things when deciding: • Number of travelers• Amount of luggage• Distance between the bus stop and your hotel A bus may be perfect if you are traveling light and staying near a stop. But if you have multiple bags or a longer walk to your hotel, the convenience of a taxi may be worth the added cost. Getting Your Ireland Trip Off to a Good Start Getting from Dublin Airport to the city centre is fairly simple once you know the options. Whether you choose a taxi, Dublin Express, AirCoach, or Dublin Bus, the right choice depends on balancing cost with convenience. Taking a few minutes to check your hotel location and transportation routes ahead of time can make your arrival in Dublin much smoother. The post How to Get from Dublin Airport to Dublin City Centre appeared first on Ireland Family Vacations.

Stop Letting the Industry Define Your Success (Before It's Too Late) I was 16 years old. I walked out of an audition without a callback. And I cried. Not because the audition went badly. Not because I wasn't prepared. Just because the answer was no. I had already handed my peace over to the outcome, and I didn't even know I was doing it. I think about that girl a lot. I wish I could go back and tell her: it's one audition. One. In a lifetime of auditions. You are going to be fine. The Problem with Letting the Industry Define Your Success Here's what nobody says out loud: if you wait for a booking to feel successful, you will spend most of your career feeling like a failure. Not because you're not talented. Not because you're not working hard enough. Because the odds of this business mean that even working, thriving actors hear "no" far more than "yes." The casting grid doesn't care about your growth. It doesn't see how far you've come. So if that's where your sense of worth lives, you're giving away your power every single day. Stop outsourcing your worth to your bookings. Let Success Be a Feeling Before It Is an Event Wayne Dyer said it well: change the way you look at things and the things you look at change. That's not just a nice quote. It's a real shift in how you experience your career every single day. When success is a distant event, like landing a series regular by a certain age, you spend most of your life waiting. And not-yet always feels a lot like failure. But when you redefine success as how you live the day? That's something you actually control. Did you train today? Did you take one step in your business? Did you care for your nervous system? That's success. Measurable, real, and fully yours. I worked out this morning and I wanted to quit about six times. But I didn't. And when I was done, I was genuinely moved. Good job. You did it even when you didn't want to. Nobody handed me that feeling. It was mine. Goals, Habits, and Identity Are Three Different Things Most actors blur these together. They matter separately. Goals are results you want. Booking a co-star. Getting new footage. Landing a manager. Habits are what you do consistently. Self-taping weekly. Taking class. Staying in touch with your network. Identity is who you decide you are. Not who you'll become if everything works out. Who you are right now. You can hold all three at once. Goal: book a co-star. Habit: self-tape every week. Identity: I am a working actor in progress. That combination is what actually works. When you stop tying your identity to your outcomes, you become more resilient. And in this business, resilience is everything. Consistency, persistence, tenacity. Those might be the three most important words in this industry. Your Habits Are the Bridge Something I wrote down recently that I keep coming back to: Your habits are the bridge between your identity and your goals. Not your bookings. Not your callbacks. Your daily habits. The quiet, unglamorous work nobody sees. That's the bridge. The industry will always be chaotic. Platforms change. Trends shift. But training, the real core craft work, that's where you go to remember who you are. When your craft is solid, you can ride out the storms without losing yourself. Check In With Yourself. Regularly. Update your definition of success on a regular basis. You grow. Your definition should grow with you. Ask yourself: what does success look like for me today? Maybe it's rebuilding your confidence. Maybe it's getting new footage. Maybe it's strengthening one relationship in the industry. If your definition of success hasn't changed in a while, you haven't let yourself evolve. One More Thing: Your Money Story Matters Too Everything we just talked about, identity, worth, fear, what safety feels like, it doesn't only show up in your career. It shows up in your relationship with money too. I created a 3-part class called Healing Your Money Story: From Survival Mode to Abundance. This is not about budgeting. It's not about forcing a positive attitude or shaming yourself into discipline. It's about understanding where your money patterns came from and why they live in your body, not just your thoughts. Inherited beliefs, the nervous system, shame, money identity, and what it actually takes to feel safe with money. Can you imagine that? Feeling genuinely safe around money. If money has ever made you tense, avoidant, ashamed, or stuck in paycheck-to-paycheck survival mode, this class was made for you. Click here to learn more.
The Florida State Seminoles' desire to leave the ACC intensifies as recruiting becomes a prime battlefront. Can elite signings in the trenches and key positions prove the Noles belong among college football's heavyweights? Brian Smith spotlights Florida State's must-win recruiting targets, from offensive line dominance to the search for difference-makers at linebacker and defensive line. The discussion unpacks the Seminoles' depth chart, rising stars like defensive linemen Earnest Rankins and Kevin Wynn, and offensive linemen Andre Otto and Jonathan Daniels, and the ongoing challenge of building through high school talent instead of relying on the transfer portal. With Coach Mike Norvell's job status looming large, Brian Smith asks if the Seminoles' roster, recruiting wins, and program buzz will be enough to pave FSU's way into the Big Ten or SEC?

Each episode centers on practical marketing, sales, and leadership systems that help boutique gyms build steady momentum without guesswork or constant outreach.Episode HighlightsIn this episode, Blake Ruff breaks down the new Facebook Ads Manager option that allows campaigns to run with both website traffic and instant lead forms. Lead forms keep users on Facebook and can improve lead quality when SMS verification is enabled. Landing pages can produce stronger leads but require a clear, optimized website and a properly installed Facebook pixel for tracking. Using both options together allows advertisers to capture leads directly on Facebook while still sending qualified prospects to a websiteEpisode OutlineHow Facebook lead forms work and why they keep data inside FacebookThe role of SMS verification in improving lead qualityWhen sending traffic to a website can produce stronger leadsWhy is a properly installed Facebook pixel required for tracking conversionsHow to verify the pixel using the Facebook Pixel HelperSetting up higher-intent Facebook lead forms with required fields and privacy policyConnecting lead forms to a CRM for follow-up and nurturingRunning campaigns that allow users to choose between website visits and instant formsWhy website optimization matters before sending paid trafficEpisode Chapters00:00 Intro & Podcast Overview00:30 New Facebook Ads Feature: Website + Instant Forms01:10 Lead Forms Pros, Cons & SMS Verification02:15 Sending Traffic to Website vs Lead Forms03:10 Pixel Setup & Meta Pixel Helper04:15 Building a High-Intent Lead Form05:20 Using Website + Instant Forms Together06:30 Optimizing Website & Final Recommendations07:30 Closing & Call to ActionAction TakenTurn on SMS verification for Facebook lead forms to confirm submitted phone numbers and improve lead qualityInstall the Meta/Facebook pixel on the website and verify it using the Meta Pixel HelperEnsure the lead conversion pixel fires when a form is submittedCreate a Facebook lead form using higher-intent settings and required fields (name, email, phone)Include a privacy policy and clear CTA such as scheduling a free trialConnect the Facebook lead form to the CRM so leads enter the nurturing pipelineSelect the correct pixel and conversion event (“Lead”) when configuring Ads Manager campaignsReview and optimize the website before sending paid trafficConclusionLead forms and landing pages serve different roles inside Facebook advertising. Lead forms create a fast and simple path for prospects to submit their information, while landing pages allow deeper engagement for visitors who prefer to explore a website first. The strongest campaigns often use both. When supported by a properly installed pixel and a clear website experience, this combination improves lead tracking, lead quality, and overall campaign performance.CTAListen to the episode to understand how the website and instant forms feature works and how it can be applied inside Facebook Ads Manager.
Episode 4016: Is the Alberta NDP's Message Landing?Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips dive into the growing conversation around the Alberta NDP's strategy and whether Naheed Nenshi is breaking through with voters. They talk about polling, leader favourables, opposition tactics, and how an opposition actually builds momentum between elections. Is the NDP stuck in the mid-cycle doldrums or facing a real strategic problem? Should the party focus on energizing the base or targeting swing voters in Calgary? And at what point does Carter start invoicing the NDP?Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.Join our Patreon for ad-free episodes, bonus episodes, and access to our exclusive Discord.https://www.patreon.com/c/strategistspodYou can also watch our episodes on YouTube.https://www.youtube.com/@strategistspod Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of the Shift AI Podcast, Nadia Hansen, Global AI Go-To-Market Leader and Industry Advisor for Public Sector at Salesforce, joins host Boaz Ashkenazy for a live conversation recorded at Dreamforce in San Francisco on how AI agents are fundamentally reshaping government services.Nadia shares her unconventional career journey—from serving as the Chief Information Officer for Clark County in Las Vegas overseeing 2.3 million residents and 10,000 employees, to leading public sector go-to-market strategy at Salesforce. From there, the discussion dives deep into how today's government agencies are navigating digital transformation with resilience, experimentation, and a growing openness to AI-driven innovation.The conversation explores how AgentForce and agentic AI are enabling government agencies to deliver seamless digital front doors for residents—automating intake processes, streamlining permit requests, breaking down departmental silos, and providing multilingual access to public services. Nadia explains why voice technology is poised to become the next major interface for government, how co-creating AI use cases with employees drives real adoption, and why the biggest barrier to transformation is mindset, not technology.Boaz and Nadia also examine the growing challenge of shadow AI in government, why bottom-up adoption workshops outperform top-down mandates, and how cities like Kyle, Texas are experimenting with AI in safe, compliant environments. The episode closes with Nadia's powerful two-word vision for the future of work: revolutionary mindset.This episode is essential listening for public sector leaders, civic technologists, and anyone who wants to understand how AI is moving beyond individual productivity gains to transform the way government serves its communities.Chapters[00:00] From Home Depot to the C-Suite: Nadia's Career Journey[04:07] Landing at Salesforce and Repositioning CRM for Government[07:50] First and Worst Jobs: Lessons from Selling Manure[10:22] The Digital Front Door: Seamless Government Services[12:37] Selling to Government: Speak in Outcomes, Not Products[15:03] AgentForce and the Rise of Voice-First Government[17:24] Augmentation Over Replacement: Addressing the Fear of AI[19:47] Bottom-Up Adoption: Co-Creating AI Use Cases with Employees[21:13] Public Safety, Multilingual Access, and the World Cup[23:30] The Future of Work: Revolutionary MindsetConnect with Nadia HansenLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nadiakhansen/Newsletter: Hack to the Future (on LinkedIn)Connect with Boaz AshkenazyLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/boazashkenazy/Email: info@shiftai.fm

Jacob sets down the grand strategy for a gripping personal story, catching up with his high school friend Avi Swerdlow, who landed in Israel the day before the new Gulf War erupted. Avi recounts waking to sirens, sheltering with his mother, and navigating a closed airspace in a circuitous scramble to get home - a reminder that geopolitics is always personal.

In this episode of the Urban Valor Podcast, we sit down with a World War II Army veteran who survived one of the deadliest moments of the European campaign...the Rhine River crossing! And later walked through a liberated Nazi death camp! At just 19 years old, Paul A. Groves was drafted into the U.S. Army and assigned as an infantry messenger with E Company, 89th Infantry Division under General Patton. In January 1945, he landed in France before pushing toward the Rhine River — one of the final and most dangerous barriers into Nazi Germany.At 2:00 AM, his unit loaded into boats under darkness.Halfway across, German machine guns opened fire.His company commander was killed.His first sergeant was killed.Then the boat exploded.Thrown into the freezing river under direct fire, Paul became the only Soldier from his boat to survive.As American forces advanced into Germany, he helped liberate a Nazi concentration camp — describing the smell of death before they ever saw it.After surviving the Rhine and witnessing the camps, Paul was told he would likely be sent to invade Japan. Then the atomic bomb was dropped.Now over 100 years old, he reflects on combat, fear, survival, and what General Patton meant when he said a Soldier must learn to hate the enemy.This is a firsthand WWII testimony from one of the last living soldiers of that generation.
At 17 years old, Michael King bought a brand-new CNC machine despite never having seen one in person. With no formal trade school background or apprenticeship, he relied on years of self-directed learning, curiosity, and a steady stream of YouTube machining content to take the leap. He sectioned off space in his dad's warehouse, installed a Haas DM2, and started figuring it out in real time. What began as a personal interest in building things quickly turned into real production work. A stainless steel contract gave him early traction. A used Swiss machine that arrived broken forced him to learn diagnostics and hand-code thousands of lines of G-code. Over time, one machine became several, including a dual-spindle lathe and a five-axis Matsura, forming the foundation of what is now The Monk Works. In this episode of MakingChips Generation CNC, we talk through how Michael has approached growth with unusual discipline. He's kept overhead low, relied entirely on word-of-mouth instead of advertising, and leaned heavily into technology from day one. Rather than scaling by adding headcount immediately, he's focused on automation, standardized tooling, and building systems that allow the business to operate beyond what he can personally track in his head. The conversation also explores how he thinks about cash flow, process maturity, quality, and long-term sustainability. At just 20 years old, married with two kids, Michael is already navigating the tension between capacity and structure, ambition and patience. His story challenges the idea that manufacturing has a high barrier to entry while reinforcing that longevity still depends on discipline and intentional decision-making.

Just translate your website into Spanish and launch in Mexico, right? Wrong. Dead wrong. Mexico is heavily cash-based, credit card acceptance rates are terrible due to fraud. International e-commerce is a minefield of assumptions that silently kill conversions before customers ever see your products.This encore episode brings back Naveen Gunti, VP of Logistics, Digital and Technology for International Markets at American Eagle Outfitters, whose insights are more relevant than ever. Join hosts Chuck Moxley and Nick Paladino as we explore why international means operating in 60+ countries, each with completely different consumer behaviors, payment systems, and brand perceptions. We dive into the concept Naveen calls "macro friction", friction that comes from outside your website, like when marketplaces in a country deliver in one hour and you take three days, making your perfect checkout flow irrelevant. They break down developer and product bias, explaining how building experiences for yourself in ideal conditions on the best network destroys experiences for users who aren't in those conditions. Most powerfully, Naveen warns that assuming you've eliminated all friction is exactly when you've just created it.Key Actionable Takeaways: Localize for market-specific payment and fulfillment expectations - Partner with local infrastructure like cash payment networks in cash-based markets and meet delivery speed standards set by dominant marketplaces, not just your own capabilitiesStop building for yourself in ideal conditions - Test on actual devices, networks, and conditions your users face; developer bias creates friction when you optimize for best-case scenarios that don't represent real usageContinuously test and assume friction is never fully eliminated - The moment you think your experience is frictionless, you've stopped adapting to evolving customer expectations and competitive pressures creating new friction from outside your siteWant more tips and strategies about creating frictionless digital experiences?

The 2026 NFL Free Agency period is nearly here, and the linebacker market is set to be one of the most volatile position groups in the league. In this episode of Go for 2, we're breaking down the "Big Three" veterans—Bobby Wagner, Lavonte David, and Demario Davis—and whether they have one more run left in them. We also dive into the high-upside youngsters like Devin Lloyd and Quay Walker, who are coming off massive contract years.
Step into Episode 202 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Dan Bogert, 10-year Government Affairs veteran at the Arizona Restaurant Association, to pull back the curtain on the policy battles, legislative wins, and behind-the-scenes advocacy that protect Arizona's restaurant industry every single day. From a viral "Free the Scoop" ice cream bill to negotiating directly with the governor's office twice a week through a global pandemic, Dan brings the kind of candid insider knowledge that rarely makes the news but directly shapes how every operator runs their business.The conversation covers a sweeping decade of high-stakes moments: COVID shutdowns, the $4M outdoor dining program, the messy road to getting alcohol-to-go codified into law, now finally simplified as a clean permit as of January 1, 2026, plus the ongoing fight against dram shop liability and the Torres Supreme Court ruling that changed the game. Dan also flags what operators should be watching right now in 2026: the mainstream rise of generic GLP-1 drugs quietly suppressing restaurant traffic, a new Tempe drink-spiking ordinance, and Arizona's shifting labor regulation landscape. They close with a genuine breakdown of why an ARA membership — starting at $495/year — can be one of the most valuable investments a restaurant owner makes, giving operators a strong voice at the Capitol and access to the advocacy that helps protect and shape Arizona's restaurant industry. The episode wraps with a rapid-fire round that reveals Dan was a competitive swimmer who'd choose dishwasher if he ever crossed over to restaurant life.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 2:04) Intro: Episode 202, Meet Dan Bogert & the Arizona Rain(2:04 - 3:35) Dan's Background: Tempe Native, Wildland Firefighter & Federal Reserve(3:35 - 6:38) Landing at the ARA, Lobbying Life & the Learning Curve(6:38 - 10:38) First Big Win: The Ice Cream Bill & "Free the Scoop"(10:38 - 14:32) COVID-19: Shutdowns, Reopening Guidance & the $4M Outdoor Dining Program(14:32 - 18:40) Alcohol To-Go: AZ To Go Week, Executive Orders & the 2021 Legislative Fix(18:40 - 21:25) What Is an Executive Order?

A Note from James:Tony Hawk is one of the greatest athletes of all time—but what fascinates me most isn't just the tricks.It's the mindset.Tony didn't just become the best skateboarder in the world. He built an entire ecosystem around what he loved: competitions, companies, tours, sponsorships, and one of the most successful video game franchises ever created.What's interesting is that none of it was planned that way. It came from constant experimentation, falling—literally—and getting back up again.In this episode, Tony talks about the path to excellence, how he handled criticism and failure, the moment he finally landed the legendary 900 trick, and how skateboarding evolved from an underground subculture into a global industry.Episode Description:Tony Hawk didn't just change skateboarding—he helped transform it into a global cultural phenomenon.In this archival conversation, Tony shares the real story behind his career: learning to master fear, surviving the ups and downs of a niche sport, and eventually building a massive business empire around skateboarding.He explains how passion drove him through the lean years when skateboarding almost disappeared, why constant experimentation helped him stay at the top, and how a combination of timing, risk-taking, and creative control led to the success of the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater video game franchise.The conversation also explores the legendary moment when he landed the first successful 900, the importance of protecting your brand, and why mastery often comes from relentless curiosity rather than natural talent.What You'll Learn:Why pursuing passion—even during downturns—can create long-term successHow failure and repetition build elite skill in any disciplineWhy protecting your brand and intellectual control matters in businessHow the 900 trick became one of the most iconic moments in sports historyWhy continuous learning and experimentation are essential for staying relevantTimestamped Chapters:[00:02:00] The Physics of Skateboarding & Learning Through Failure[00:03:12] Introduction[00:03:38] Developing Air Awareness in Skateboarding[00:04:10] The First Time Going Airborne in a Pool[00:05:05] Learning How to Fall Safely[00:06:19] Aging, Risk & Walking Away from Mega Ramps[00:07:17] Skateboarding's Rebellious Origins[00:08:00] Creativity and Individual Style in Skate Culture[00:09:00] Advice for Pursuing Excellence[00:10:00] Learning Every Aspect of an Industry[00:11:35] Skateboarding's Collapse in the Early '90s[00:12:33] Becoming a Professional Skater[00:14:02] Mentorship from Stacy Peralta[00:15:13] Going Broke During Skateboarding's Down Years[00:16:29] Skating Parking Lot Shows for $100 a Day[00:17:31] The X Games and Skateboarding's Comeback[00:18:45] The Video Game That Changed Everything[00:19:31] When Tony Hawk's Pro Skater Became “The Game”[00:20:24] Lessons from Skateboarding Applied to Business[00:21:17] A Failed High-End Denim Business[00:22:43] Being Called a Sellout[00:24:00] Protecting Your Brand and Reputation[00:25:13] Creating Tony Hawk's Pro Skater[00:26:20] Designing the Game Mechanics[00:27:20] The Long Road to the 900[00:29:35] Landing the 900 at the X Games[00:31:08] Becoming Tony Hawk Inc.[00:32:21] The Importance of Total Immersion[00:33:29] Designing the Downward Spiral Ramp[00:35:24] Advice for Raising a Passionate Kid[00:38:12] Business Advice from Tony Hawk's Sister[00:40:29] Working with Family[00:43:04] Why Some Athletes Fade After Success[00:44:28] Clearing Up the 900 Controversy[00:48:00] The Hoverboard PrankAdditional Resources:Official Tony HawkTony Hawk's™ Pro Skater™ 3 + 4Bones Brigade: An AutobiographyRiley Hawk on InstagramSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Miri Buckland never planned to be a Founder, until a Stanford class project turned into Landing, a social app that grew to over a million downloads without spending a dollar on marketing. After six years of pivots, community building, and ultimately shutting it down, she's back at zero-to-one with Extra, a new email app launching this spring. We talk community-led growth, committing to the pivot, and why every launch is a starting line, not a finish line.

Growing up in Southern California, he saw family members with preventable disease go uncared for, struggled in school, and was misdiagnosed with severe ADD in middle school before a later diagnosis of a comprehension disability. After being told in sixth grade he wouldn't amount to much, a continuation school, his mother's advocacy, and a teacher's attention kept him afloat.At UC Davis, an outreach email changed everything, placing him in a lab for four years and opening the door to both science and medicine. A friend introduced him to MD-PhD resources, and shadowing an orthopedic surgeon turned interest into excitement. Chris shares how he built an enduring motivation by reframing medicine as a currency for service, with a commitment to community, including Indigenous communities.He breaks down the hardest premed task—articulating Why Medicine—and the post-it exercise that helped him find a coherent thread. Applying during the first COVID cycle, he earned 16 interview invites and 9–10 acceptances by presenting a clear why and tangible research work. We also discuss advocacy for more GME positions in Indian country and his interest in dermatology and leading a lab.If you've ever been told you won't make it, this conversation offers practical ways to keep going.What You'll Learn:- How a misdiagnosis and school setbacks were addressed and reframed- Ways to access research and mentorship through outreach programs- A practical method to build a coherent Why Medicine- What made his MD-PhD application make sense and earn 16 interviews- Using community and advocacy to sustain motivation

Garret Price and Andrew Mott shift from Combine takeaways into the real domino period: NFL free agency. The focus is how quickly dynasty value can swing based on tags, cap space, and surprise landing spots. The quarterback section starts with Daniel Jones as the cleanest call to return. From there, they frame Kirk Cousins as more of a bridge or depth option than a true long-term starter, with potential fits depending on how a team wants to handle the next rookie class. The most discussed “swing” outcome is Malik Willis. They see logical scenarios where he lands in a spot that gives him a chance to start sooner rather than later, but they also push back on the idea that he becomes a franchise saver. The upside is real for fantasy. The long-term NFL outlook is still more uncertain. At running back, they spend time on the tension around Breece Hall, with the tag scenario creating downside risk for both fantasy managers and the player's perceived freedom. Kenneth Walker is treated as more likely to stay put, but with enough uncertainty that it is worth tracking closely through the deadline. From there, the conversation turns to possible landing spots and role fits. Travis Etienne is one of the biggest pieces on the board if he changes teams. Rachaad White gets framed as a committee and depth type of option rather than a clear starter. Rico Dowdle, Tyler Allgeier, and JK Dobbins round out the “next tier” of backs who could become important depending on how a backfield is built and how much money a team is willing to spend. On the wide receiver side, they start with Alec Pierce as a clean field-stretcher fit for multiple teams. Mike Evans is the headliner name if the longtime situation finally changes, with a clear expectation that any move would be tied to chasing a title. They also run through veteran and role-based fits, including Wan'Dale Robinson, Romeo Doubs, Jauan Jennings, and Christian Kirk, with the key point being that teams with cap space and obvious needs can reshape the entire room quickly. They close the receiver discussion with Deebo Samuel and Rashid Shaheed, focusing on how either player could change an offense's geometry depending on usage and price. At tight end, they highlight David Njoku as the kind of addition that can immediately upgrade an offense that needs a true middle-of-the-field presence. Isaiah Likely is treated as a talented option whose market may not be as hot as fantasy managers expect. Cade Otton is discussed as a solid, reliable tight end piece who can fit multiple teams without needing to be the entire passing game.
