Artificial intelligence is moving at a pace few organizations have ever experienced, but how much of today's AI adoption is driven by real business value versus fear of being left behind? This week on That Tech Pod, we sit down with Steven Walchek, Founder and CEO of Liminal, for a conversation about what separates companies that are genuinely transforming with AI from those simply putting on a show.Steven shares how growing up around entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley shaped his approach to building companies, his experiences helping scale innovation at Amazon Web Services and FIS, and the lessons learned from launching multiple startups and achieving three successful exits. Along the way, he explains why every major technology wave creates both incredible opportunities and very expensive mistakes.We also dig into why so many organizations fall into "innovation theater," whether executives are adopting AI because of business strategy or fear of missing the next big thing, and which technologies from the past two decades proved to be underrated or wildly overhyped. Steven offers an honest perspective on where enterprise AI is heading, what regulated industries need to get right, and the AI investments companies may look back on with regret just a few years from now.If you're trying to separate AI hype from lasting business value, this is an episode you won't want to miss.Steven Walchek is the Founder and CEO of Liminal, where he helps large regulated enterprises securely scale generative AI with the right balance of governance, visibility, and multi-model access. He's spent more than 15 years building and scaling companies across fintech, cloud, and enterprise software, focused on turning emerging technologies into real operational advantage. Before Liminal, Steven was EVP and Chief Innovation Officer at FIS, where he led corporate venture initiatives, launched new business lines, and built multiple subsidiary companies. Earlier in his career at Amazon Web Services, he worked on early machine learning and cloud infrastructure initiatives while helping expand the partner ecosystem and drive new revenue growth. He's also been involved in three successful exits, including DebtMarket, the fintech company he co-founded and later sold to Intercontinental Exchange. Today, he focuses on helping regulated industries adopt AI at scale without losing control, security, or trust.

In this episode, we're challenging one of the most common assumptions in modern spirituality: that light is inherently good, darkness is inherently evil, and our spiritual paths should always move toward one while avoiding the other.Together, we explore how these binaries shape the way we think about deities, magic, death work, shadow work, healing, and even ourselves. What happens when we stop viewing darkness as something to fear? What if light isn't always gentle, and darkness isn't always harmful?Join us as we unpack the importance of unlearning spiritual binaries and embracing a more balanced, nuanced approach to practice, one that leaves room for complexity, curiosity, and a deeper relationship with the divine.This path isn't about perfection; it's about presence.

I'm just a plain-Jane kind of girl from the Southern US, raised on cornbread, front porch stories, and in the rhythm of Southern Baptist Sundays. My path to Paganism has been long, winding, often surprising, and full of unexpected turns. I didn't find it all at once.

I work with Gods who burn away illusions and shine light into shadow. My magic is devotional and practical, grounded and ecstatic. I believe in sacred rest, in the wisdom of the body, and in building spiritual homes for people like us, the seekers, the weirdos, the ones who never stopped asking questions.

If you make a point of watching a sunrise or sunset, lay in bed a few minutes after waking to collect up the last bits of a dream, love the idea of meditation, but find it challenging, knowing there's spiritual gold to mine in those quiet-the-monkey-mind-moments? Well, you are going to LOVE Season Seven of Curious Cat.If you're a longtime listener to Curious Cat, thank you. Truly from the center of my heart chakra. I show up for YOU. But, the magic of the in-between is something we've talked about LOTS in the last almost five years. If you're new to us, welcome. And for the benefit of me, and maybe you, here's a quick overview that captures the flavor of season seven...When pondering, debating, writing or planning our focus tends fall to the extremes; this or that, which means we ignore the stuff in-between. It probably traces back to some survival mechanism our ancestors developed to determine what foods were safe to eat, what passages were too risky to travel, where we might be safe to sleep at night, and what hours of the day to do which behaviors. But like the ego, which we've discussed in past episodes, maybe it's time for a human upgrade. In fact, maybe the biggest breakthroughs in humanity lie in that juicy in-between space.In the last years together we've covered some major ground when it comes to in-between spaces. First off, my key goal - to explore what it means to be a soul in a meat suit. On our journey, we've learned that when we focus our time and attention on pursuits that nourish both our body and spirit, there are huge payoffs. I call that the sweet spot.From nutrition - eating with our chakras in mind, to activities like yoga that have both a physical and soul-nourishing aspect, to paying attention to our dreams (including day dreams!) How about when we were honest about the yin and yang of ourselves? The shadow self and light self? Remember how when we pulled those shadow traits, the ones sequestered in our soul basements out into the light, we tended to find our superpowers? We can observe the magic of in-between in nature, too. The blurring days, moments really when summer takes on a tinge of amber, a crispness in the morning, that hints to the season to come. What about daybreak? If you sit outside in the moments before the sun rises, you bear witness to the sounds of neighborhood wildlife waking up, beginning a pursuit of food and water; as well as observe the volume of your fellow humans turning their engines, setting off for work or school, an increasing pitch that's barely discernable until it is full-blown day. If you enjoy art, playing with colors illustrates the magic of in-between, moments of brilliance you never could have planned are immortalized on a strip of watercolor paper, the midpoint a dance between two contrasting hues. The in-between can be extremely uncomfortable, too. As a child of divorced parents, my in-between times were a stretch of I-5, miles of freeway that took me from one household to the other. Hard as I tried, I could never sleep through that journey. It was the equivalent of taking off a stuck Band-Aid over the course of fifteen hours. Those twice yearly journeys are the reason I am forever bonded to my big brother, even if we only manage to see each other every now and then because we live far apart. There's magic to observe, hell! harness in the in-betweens if we only take the time to observe them before they slip away. LIke wood sprites at twilight or ghosts that flicker in our peripheral vision, next time you catch a glimpse, stop and turn your head. Watch the in-betweens straight on and learn, soaking in that ethereal, otherworldly essence.Listen/Read/Watch Until the New Season Launches in August 2026Magic of the In-Between, Curious Cat PodcastDragon Magic with Monique PliakosThe Angel of Mysteries & Magic, RazielCan someone please explain the concept of heterotopia?

Cat McGinn, industry commentator and the founder of Liminal and Co, joins Darren to discuss the structural problems with how the advertising industry is using artificial intelligence. While AI promises creative abundance and more originality, it is instead delivering creative convergence and more of the same. They explore why AI acts as a "stochastic parrot," predicting patterns based on past human content and biases, which ultimately regresses output toward the average rather than generating true ideas.  The conversation delves into the cognitive science behind this phenomenon, referencing Wharton's System Three model and the dangerous rise of "cognitive surrender," where high trust in AI leads creatives to adopt faulty outputs with minimal scrutiny. To combat this, they discuss how the best use of AI requires systems thinking, taste, and introducing deliberate productive friction instead of simply offloading the effort of thinking. Finally, they offer an optimistic reframing of creativity as a wild, divergent problem-solving practice. Instead of asking how to make campaigns slightly faster and cheaper, Cat urges the industry to ask what problems can now be solved that couldn't before.

Politics on the UWS is in a liminal place where a new reality is aborning. Of course, this nation exists in "between" places where possible versions of democracy are tried and then abandoned. This week the social democratic version has gained a foothold in our Upper West Side neighborhood – and maybe American politics. Eli Northrup – Bronx Public Defender and justice policy wonk -- was elected the new State Assembly person for UWS's District 69.We spoke with Eli and his campaign manager – Courtney Curd -- on the Sunday before the Tuesday Primary in Riverside Park – opening our mics to citizens to talk to the politician. Then, we recorded at the Northrup After-Election Party at Amity Hall Bar in Morningside Heights.Here are the sounds of an iteration of American politics – one that we at Bar Crawl Radio hope takes hold on our country's disperse imaginations and future governance.Alan Winsonbarcrawlradio@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

This week, Geordie & Michelle. veer into the eerie world of liminal spaces, alternate realities and the unsettling idea that there might be places that exist just beyond our own...Have you heard of the Elevator Game? What began as a South Korean urban legend evolved into an internet paranormal ritual, spreading through horror forums and social media. The premise is simple but unsettling: enter an elevator in a building with at least ten floors, follow a precise sequence of button presses and you may find yourself transported to another dimension. That legend leads to one of the internet's most enduring mysteries: the case of Elisa Lam. What was she doing in that hotel elevator? Could her strange behavior have anything to do with the Elevator Game—or is that simply a modern myth layered onto a tragic real-life event? Geordie also explores the unsettling mythology of Backrooms, the psychology of liminal spaces and why these strange in-between places continue to haunt our imaginations.

What happens when a society possesses extraordinary technological power but lacks a shared sense of what that power is for? John Vervaeke, Jordan Hall, Guy Sengstock, and Christopher Mastropietro reunite for a sustained inquiry into normativity: the structures by which human beings perceive direction, value, responsibility, and the difference between better and worse action. The question becomes urgent in the context of artificial intelligence, where increasingly consequential decisions are being made inside a culture that struggles to articulate a coherent basis for judgment. The conversation begins with Guy's encounters with the AI community and the fear that humanity may soon make decisions it cannot reverse. From there, the group investigates modernity's technological understanding of being, the reduction of creation to artifacts, and the modern self's attachment to sole authorship. John and Jordan propose that meaning is participatory: intelligibility is not manufactured by isolated selves but emerges through shared authorship with other people, traditions, practices, and reality itself. The dialogue then turns toward virtue. If the problem is not simply ignorance but malformed attention and desire, knowing what should be done is insufficient. The deeper difficulty is how people become capable of wanting, perceiving, and participating in what is good. Socratic aporia, vulnerability, kenosis, embodied practice, pilgrimage, and dialogue are explored as ways of undergoing reorientation rather than merely acquiring information. In the final movement, the speakers discuss bad-faith dialogue, leisure, lingering, tourism, linguistic lostness, and doomscrolling. These apparently different subjects converge on one insight: when people remain sealed inside environments engineered around their existing capacities and preferences, they lose access to the forms of friction, surprise, and participation that can transform them. Key Insights Normativity is the directional structure through which actions appear better, worse, appropriate, or necessary. The AI crisis exposes a deeper cultural inability to answer what technology should serve. Modernity often confuses participation in creation with ownership of the resulting artifact. Meaning and intelligibility require shared authorship rather than sovereign individual control. Virtue cannot be transmitted as information alone; it requires transformed attention and participation. Embodied practices can reorganize abstractions because higher cognition remains rooted in sensorimotor life.

Welcome back to RECESS — our bi-weekly look at what we're learning, trends we're seeing in the health and fitness space, and how we're building more play into real life.The fitness industry is facing its biggest shake-up yet, and it's coming from a syringe. In this episode of RECESS, we cover a lot of ground: from Caroline's high school graduation and a wild weekend of sports (Knicks championship! Water polo! World Cup!) to the questions keeping health and fitness professionals up at night.The centerpiece of this episode is a candid conversation about GLP-1, GLP-2, and the newly trialed GLP-3 drug Retatrutide — and what near-30% body weight loss results mean for the future of personal training, nutrition coaching, and the entire weight loss industry. Is weight loss about to become a purely medical intervention? And if so, what does that mean for coaches, trainers, and wellness brands like ours?We also take on a viral debate about AI-generated fitness influencers crowding out real coaches on social media, break down the data on whether women should skip college in the age of AI (spoiler: the numbers say no), and share our take on Backrooms, the buzzy horror film directed by a local kid who built the concept as a high schooler. If you've ever felt the existential dread of liminal spaces, this one's for you.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy Caroline Starrett's observation that "muscles are the new skinny" might be the most important trend call in fitness right nowHow GLP-3 drug Retatrutide achieved nearly 30% average body weight loss in Phase 3 trials, and what that means compared to Ozempic and ZepBoundWhat happens to the fitness industry if weight loss becomes a purely pharmaceutical interventionThe hidden dangers of GLP-1 drugs: muscle and bone mass loss, weight regain after stopping, and the return of extreme thinness cultureWhy AI-generated fitness influencers are getting millions of views while real coaches struggle for reach, and what to do about itThe data behind college ROI for women: why the gender pay gap and VC funding stats make a compelling case for staying in schoolWhy the most successful female founders (Rent the Runway, Stitch Fix, 23andMe, Tory Burch) share one thing in commonA local director's Backrooms, worth seeing even if you hate horrorKey Highlights: (00:00) Welcome back to RECESS; Caroline's high school graduation and becoming (almost) empty nesters; the "open nest" philosophy(01:50) A massive weekend of sports: Knicks championship, Stanley Cup, World Cup, water polo tournaments, and shoutouts to Cal athletes competing in European club championships(05:35) The viral Canadian coach's Instagram post: AI-generated fitness influencers vs. real coaches, the algorithm problem, and a defense of making content that's actually fun(07:45) Why real coaches deserve your engagement: the difference between AI-driven content and educators who've spent years building free resources(11:17) College ROI debate: a prominent female entrepreneur suggests skipping college; Juliet and Kelly push back with data — 65–75% higher lifetime earnings for college grads, and the gender pay gap closes with education(16:00) Female founders and elite credentials: why the women who actually break through in VC-backed startups almost universally have top-tier degrees; notable examples and one cautionary tale(18:00) Caroline's insight: "muscles are the new skinny" — when anyone can change their body composition with a GLP drug, muscle becomes the differentiator(19:29) Breaking down the GLP-3 trial results for Retatrutide: 70+ lbs average loss, nearly 30% body weight reduction, and how it compares to GLP-1 and GLP-2 drugs(20:40) How GLP drugs are splitting the fitness industry: some coaches relieved, some threatened, and the legacy weight loss brands already pivoting(22:45) The dark side: muscle and bone mass loss, Hollywood's return to extreme thinness, and what happens when people stop taking the drugs without changing their habits(27:00) The message that still matters: muscle is your longevity organ; building a body for adventure; why GLP drugs and strength training aren't mutually exclusive(27:29) Backrooms the movie: local Marin School of the Arts alum director Kane Parsons, and why this creepy-beautiful film is worth your time even if you're not a horror fan(29:10) Wrap-up and thanks for listening

“Send Coach John a message”I found something that got me thinking, reflecting, smiling and yes, having a few tears. It came from liminal (@Liminal1988) where they shared this post:  “A happy life doesn't consist of just happy moments, it is a mixture of both the happy and the sad.  There will be good times - when you laugh with your friends until your cheeks are read and your stomach hurts, trips to the park and the zoo, shopping and late-night ice-cream runs, and private jokes and notes passed in class, and every little prank that you play. There will be long lazy days spent at the beach as you dip into the ocean just as the sun sets, and holidays to countries with tender sand and warmth in the air, and nights you spend indoors with your family wrapped around you and the comforting days that you spend alone. ~ Ruby Dhal, (author of The Path to Self-love.)  Each item in this post got me thinking about many things throughout my life. In fact when I typed this out, I got to thinking about other things too.  So many things reminded me that I have had a happy life so far AND I plan to choose to continue to have more of a happy life too as I get older.  I sincerely hope this helps you to connect with having a happy life too.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

In this episode of Pagan's Witchy Corner, we sit down to work through a selection of reflection questions centered around one of the most important, and often overlooked, aspects of spiritual practice: boundaries.Together, they explore what spiritual, emotional, and ethical boundaries actually look like in everyday life, how those boundaries have evolved throughout their own practices, and why developing them is essential for maintaining healthy relationships with ourselves, our communities, and our spiritual work. Through honest conversation and personal reflection, they discuss the lessons they've learned, the mistakes they've made, and the ways strong boundaries have helped shape their paths over the years.Whether you're just beginning your practice or have been walking your path for decades, these questions invite you to examine your own beliefs, values, and experiences with curiosity and compassion.This path isn't about perfection; it's about presence.

I'm just a plain-Jane kind of girl from the Southern US, raised on cornbread, front porch stories, and in the rhythm of Southern Baptist Sundays. My path to Paganism has been long, winding, often surprising, and full of unexpected turns. I didn't find it all at once. The more I leaned into my dreams, my intuition, and my experiences with spirit, the more the world began to shimmer with meaning. The gods, the dead, the land – all of it was speaking. These days, I'm a priestess of death and rebirth, of sovereignty and sacred mischief. I walk with spirits. I work with Gods who burn away illusions and shine light into shadow. My magic is devotional and practical, grounded and ecstatic. I believe in sacred rest, in the wisdom of the body, and in building spiritual homes for people like us, the seekers, the weirdos, the ones who never stopped asking questions.

Liminal time is that time between "no longer" and "not yet." It is something we experience in many seasons of our lives — something we see now as we enter the season of graduations and weddings. Other experiences of liminal time, though, come not by choice but by loss. This episode explores how the two most important factors in helping us when we find ourselves in the "in between" times are spirituality and community.

Send Us a Message!The most disorienting seasons of life often aren't the endings or the beginnings. They're the in between. That's where liminal space lives, and it's where so many of us either break open into a truer life or try to force ourselves back into the old one.In this episode, we'll explore:• defining liminal spaces as the in between where time slows and growth accelerates• using curiosity and metacognition to track reactions and rewrite old stories• working with archetypes, parts, and soul contracts to integrate the self• building energetic boundaries and differentiation to stay connected without shrinking• naming dissociation patterns and returning to presence in the physical realm• creating shared reality through collaboration instead of scarcityChristine Renee sits down with Lacee Gengenbacher to name what liminal spaces actually feel like: time standing still, identity shifting, and the Tower moment where what “worked” stops working. We talk honestly about how expansion can get tangled with a chronically activated nervous system, why calm can feel unsafe after chaos, and how to reframe growth so it doesn't require pain and suffering to be valid. Along the way, we dig into embodiment, nervous system safety, dissociation, and the practical power of curiosity and metacognition to track what's really happening when you feel triggered.We also connect the dots between parts work and spiritual practice, including archetypes, soul contracts, and Internal Family Systems style language. When the ground moves under you, the inner voices get louder, and we share ways to meet those parts with intention instead of judgment. A thread we keep coming back to is connection: you're only as connected to others as you are to yourself, and energetic boundaries help you stay in your truth without shutting down your light.We close by sharing what we're building in community: the Gathering of the Mystics summit in Bozeman, Montana, a three day container designed for safe exploration, real integration, and shared medicine through speakers, workshops, and intentional ritual.

In this episode of Pagan's Witchy Corner, we explore energetic consent, spiritual sovereignty, and why consent matters just as much in magical and spiritual spaces as it does in the physical world.Far too often, conversations about spirituality focus on connection, devotion, and community while overlooking one of the most important foundations of any healthy practice: consent. Whether we're discussing energy work, divination, deity communication, magical mentorship, healing practices, or community interactions, the ability to say "yes," "no," or "not right now" is essential.Join us as we discuss what energetic consent actually means, how spiritual boundaries protect both practitioners and communities, and why sovereignty over your own mind, body, energy, and practice is a sacred right. We also examine common ways consent can be overlooked in spiritual spaces and how practitioners can cultivate healthier, more respectful relationships with both the seen and unseen worlds.Because spirituality should never require surrendering your autonomy.This path isn't about perfection; it's about presence.

I'm just a plain-Jane kind of girl from the Southern US, raised on cornbread, front porch stories, and in the rhythm of Southern Baptist Sundays. My path to Paganism has been long, winding, often surprising, and full of unexpected turns. I didn't find it all at once. The more I leaned into my dreams, my intuition, and my experiences with spirit, the more the world began to shimmer with meaning. The gods, the dead, the land – all of it was speaking. These days, I'm a priestess of death and rebirth, of sovereignty and sacred mischief. I walk with spirits. I work with Gods who burn away illusions and shine light into shadow. My magic is devotional and practical, grounded and ecstatic. I believe in sacred rest, in the wisdom of the body, and in building spiritual homes for people like us, the seekers, the weirdos, the ones who never stopped asking questions.

Synopsis A failing furniture store owner and aspiring architect Clarke is trying to work on himself in therapy when he stumbles upon a hidden portal to a labyrinthian series of rooms. These “backrooms” have an uncanny nature about them. They don't seem to have any logical floor plans, scale, or use case. They are like a memory of a room, and not a room itself. As Clarke explores deeper he is confronted with a danger within that might consume him if he stays too long. Review Backrooms as a concept started as a creepy and tongue in cheek 4chan comment and them was adapted and thrived on youtube as a series of shorts. Now the creator of that series helms a hollywood movie starring oscar nominated actors. It accomplishes a great feat in bringing a very specific flavor of horror to the masses. Liminal horror. the unsettling feeling of the spaces between spaces. whereas most horror would focus on the scary, or horrifying, or dread. The word the exemplifies Backrooms is uncanny. It's the feeling of something being just off enough to capture your attention. The plot and the characters seem like secondary concerns compared to maintaining the weirdness of the production design, but are just complex enough to give the audience something to latch onto. The personality flaws and trauma of the protagonists seem like a key to unlocking the secrets of the backrooms. But by the end of the movie, it's just as ambiguous and dreamlike as the beginning. It's hard to list out what works so well in the movie, but I found it uniquely enjoyable and disturbing. Score 10/10

The Backrooms movie arrives tomorrow from A24, and we're diving into how found footage horror and liminal space folklore became one of internet culture's most unsettling modern legends. From a creepy 2019 message board image to Kane Pixels' viral YouTube series, Reddit deep dives, TikTok rabbit holes, and analog horror aesthetics—this episode explores why empty hallways, buzzing fluorescent lights, and yellow walls tap into something primal about being lost nowhere.Inside this episode:• Why The Backrooms are trending again with the A24 film arriving tomorrow • How a simple empty yellow room became a modern creepypasta legend • Why liminal spaces feel so familiar, lonely, and unsettling• How Kane Pixels helped turn internet horror into cinematic found-footage nightmare• Why the scariest thing about The Backrooms may not be the monster - but the architecture itselfThis is a quick, creepy, casual dive into the internet horror phenomenon that made empty hallways feel like a doorway out of reality.

We go deep into the backrooms and what they signify and the emerging narrative of the collective unconscious of the BACKROOMS and this genre of liminal horror as well as other key liminal horror spaces.
