You might mistake a recent video released by the Department of Homeland Security for an action movie trailer. It shows Border Patrol agents in military fatigues entering an apartment building in South Shore and arresting people alleged to be connected to Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan gang. Reporting from WBEZ, the Chicago Sun-Times and other outlets confirm that U.S. citizens were detained for hours, some of them in handcuffs and zip ties. None of that was shown. In the Loop talks to Jim Warren with NewsGuard and security affairs expert Robert Pape of UChicago about whether or not the federal government's videos of immigration raids – such as the one in South Shore – amount to propaganda about Chicago crime and immigrants.

Everyone's talking about the AI datacenter boom right now. Billion dollar deals here, hundred billion dollar deals there. Well, why do data centers matter?

In this episode, Kwasi Ankomah from SambaNova Systems explains why running AI models efficiently matters more than you think, how their revolutionary chip architecture delivers 700+ tokens per second, and why AI agents are about to make this problem 10x worse.

Blake and David examine the growing threat of AI-generated fake receipts, with 32% of accountants unable to recognize fraudulent documents and 30% reporting an increase in fraud since last year. They also discuss the concerning decline in entry-level auditor positions (down 43% since January) as firms adopt AI automation, while nearly half of accounts payable professionals now fear layoffs and also explore the concept of "work slop"—low-quality AI-generated work costing businesses nearly $200 per employee monthly—and debate whether firms should require clients to use standardized technology stacks, with only 37% currently doing so.

Aaron Schwartz is the Co-founder and Co-CEO of Orita.ai, a software company that improves email deliverability. He is also an advisor and investor in various commerce tech companies, including Passport and EcoCart. Previously, Aaron built and managed the DTC brand Modify Watches and was the President of Loop. In this episode… Email remains a core channel for reaching customers, but brands often misuse it. As customer acquisition costs climb and competition intensifies, many brands resort to blasting their audiences with more campaigns, only to see engagement fall and customers unsubscribe. How can companies harness smarter strategies to keep customers engaged without burning them out? According to eCommerce veteran Aaron Schwartz, the answer lies in data-driven retention marketing. Over-sending emails may provide a short-term lift, but ultimately damages deliverability and customer trust. By tapping into customer behavior data, brands can determine when someone actually wants to hear from them, creating more meaningful engagement. Shifting from a marketer's mindset to a consumer's perspective — and using modern analytics instead of outdated rules of thumb — can transform email, SMS, and direct mail into profitable retention channels. In this episode of The Digital Deep Dive, Aaron Conant talks with Aaron Schwartz, Co-founder and Co-CEO of Orita.ai, about retention marketing best practices. Aaron discusses why brands must move past intuition and embrace data, how machine learning enables smarter segmentation, and why balancing timing with customer preferences drives higher ROI.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEPull up, friend—this one's for the high-achieving, heart-led woman whose brilliant brain sees every angle… then stalls. We're turning overthinking from a confidence killer into a confidence catalyst. I'll show you how to catch the thought loop mid-sentence, calm your nervous system, and replace the spiral with identity-anchored Power Lines that move you forward—no perfection required.You'll learn why your mind isn't the enemy (it's an over-eager intern), how compassionate self-talk signals safety, and how choosing one clean action creates momentum you can feel. This is self-love in action: reframing the inner dialogue, regulating emotions, and practicing leadership with your thoughts so you can show up in real life—with clarity, boundaries, and Main Character Energy.By the end, you'll know exactly how to be your built-in bestie, talk to yourself like someone you trust, and proof-stack tiny wins that compound into unshakable confidence. Think calm decisions, clear communication, and aligned relationships that mirror your steady, centered presence.KEY TAKEAWAYSSPOT THE LOOP, LEAD THE MIND: Overthinking is a safety strategy, not your identity—name it, then direct it.TRUTH BOMB: What you rehearse, you request. Spirals train outcomes; Power Lines retrain them.EMPOWERING SHIFT: Self-respect beats shame—your nervous system follows your narrator.ALIGNED ACTION: Decide once, move in five minutes, log two tiny wins—confidence is evidence.CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction: Your Mind Isn't the Enemy00:44 Understanding Overthinking01:23 Main Character Confidence Checklist01:50 Personal Journey: From Overthinker to Leader02:52 The Science Behind Overthinking06:32 The NICE Method: A Compassionate Approach07:02 Self-Talk: The Power of Words10:40 Practical Steps to Rewire Your Brain12:02 Boundaries and Bestie Energy21:37 Main Character Energy: Living with Confidence25:19 Conclusion: Becoming Your Own Best Friend28:03 Final Thoughts and Call to ActionTHE SELF-LOVE 2-STEPWhen you catch yourself second-guessing, over-explaining, people-pleasing, or letting someone else's reply decide your mood, flip this two-step. It pulls you out of performing and back into Main Character Energy, moving you from overthinking to aligned action in under two minutes. Use it before you text back out of anxiety, before an automatic yes, or whenever your peace feels negotiable. One switch and you're back in the role you already own.STEP 1 — NOTICE, NAME & NOW INTERRUPT (Presence → Power) Pause. Hand to heart. Breathe. Name the loop: approval math / all-or-nothing / catastrophic forecasting.
