Episode Overview:In this episode of The World According to Boyar, Jonathan Boyar speaks with Lina Tetelbaum, a corporate partner at Wachtell Lipton, one of the world's most influential corporate law firms, where she heads the firm's shareholder engagement and activism defense practice.Lina takes us inside the world of shareholder activism — how activists choose targets, the small universe of ideas they typically push, how companies and boards respond, and why so many activist campaigns ultimately end in settlements rather than full proxy fights.We discuss the tension between the changes activists typically call for and long-term business strategy, the role of index funds and proxy advisors, how activists build positions, what really happens behind the scenes in settlement negotiations, and why even controlled companies are not completely immune from activist pressure.Lina also shares her perspective on Wachtell Lipton's history in takeover defense and activism, from the era of the poison pill to today's more complex battles between boards, activists, institutional investors, and other stakeholders.Topics discussed include: shareholder activism, proxy fights, activist settlements, board governance, index funds, ISS and Glass Lewis, activist nominees, controlled companies, capital allocation, M&A, and long-term value creation.To receive more of Boyar's research, interviews, and thoughts on investing, subscribe to our Substack at boyarresearch.substack.comAbout Lina Tetelbaum:Elina (Lina) Tetelbaum is a Corporate Partner and Head of Shareholder Engagement and Activism Defense at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz.

Jackie Jantos, CEO of Hinge, says the cost of living is reshaping dating habits, with daytime meet-ups becoming more common and traditional drinks dates becoming less popular as younger people look for cheaper ways to meet in person.She argues that AI should help users express themselves rather than speak on their behalf, rejecting suggestions that AI is making online dating less authentic. Hinge has introduced a range of AI-powered tools, including features that help users improve profiles, start conversations and reconsider potentially offensive messages before sending them. Jantos defends these interventions, saying they encourage reflection rather than creating a filtered version of users online.Jantos says it "breaks her heart" that some young people are turning to AI chatbots for emotional support instead of confiding in friends, arguing that difficult conversations and human connection remain essential parts of building relationships. She points to research showing high levels of loneliness among Gen Z and says younger generations are spending significantly less time together in person than previous cohorts.Jantos also discusses the wider dating-app industry, arguing that Hinge is continuing to grow despite broader challenges across the sector. She attributes that growth to the company's focus on helping users to meet in person and ultimately leave the app altogether.Presenter: Sean Farrington Producer: Jeevan Nerwan Editor: Olivia Baron03:18 Gen Z loneliness and isolation 07:19 Hinge's growth compared to other dating apps 09:18 Growth in the UK and the gender balance 15:20 AI features on the app and authenticity 32:37 The younger generation's relationship with AI 36:12 Age restrictions on social media usage 39:20 Tinder and other Match Group apps 42:25 Is “Designed to be deleted” at odds with the business model? 46:20 The cost of living crisis is leading to growth in daytime dating as opposed to traditional bar dates 54:46 Her career in tech, including roles at Spotify
Younger users of dating apps want “lower pressure” and “more authentic ways of connecting,” and Tinder's new products aimed at meeting those needs appear to be aiding Match Group's turnaround, CFO Steve Bailey says. Bailey joins Bloomberg Intelligence's Nicole D'Souza on this episode of the Tech Disruptors podcast to discuss how dating-app behavior is changing after the pandemic, why Gen Z women are central to Tinder's strategy, and how AI, product updates and helping users connect in real life could reshape growth.

"The word I always come back to when I think of the future of trust and safety is governance. We are no longer just making moderation decisions. We're no longer just banning people or deleting posts or removing accounts. We are ultimately responsible for overseeing the health of the platforms and communities that we've created. Especially in an age of AI, I think there's a huge role for the field of trust and safety in overseeing the decisions that AI makes. In a world where we automate more of our decisions, that doesn't mean that we don't have jobs anymore. It means that our jobs change. And our jobs change to being auditors and overseers of automated decisions. And then when we find problems, we're the people who are now responsible for engineering solutions to them." - Yoel RothFresh out of the studio, Yoel Roth, Senior Vice President and Head of Trust and Safety at Match Group, joins Bernard Leong to trace how trust and safety has evolved from a behind-the-scenes function into a board-level discipline. Drawing on his earlier work in Twitter (now known as X) and his current work across the different portfolio companies under Match Group: Tinder, Hinge, and OkCupid, Yoel reframes online fraud as an economics problem — why a new face costs scammers more than a new SIM card. He unpacks why anonymity does not cause online abuse, compares the American, European, and Chinese regulatory models, and argues trust and safety belongs alongside customer acquisition cost (CAC) as a growth lever. The future, he closes with what great would look like, is governance — AI shifting practitioners from moderators to auditors.Episode Highlights[00:00] Quote of the Day by Yoel Roth from Match Group[01:13] Introduction: Yoel Roth from Match Group[04:30] Content moderation as governance, not just policy[06:30] A front-row seat to platform governance debates[09:00] Protecting public-facing employees from threats[10:30] First shift in trust and safety: regulation goes global[11:30] Shift: from reactive to proactive[14:30] 98% of Match Group's revenue depends on safety[16:30] Tinder Face Check and the case for friction[18:00] Biggest mistakes in building trust and safety[23:30] Why scammers target dating platforms specifically[26:00] A new face costs more than a new SIM[30:30] AI as decision enablement, not replacement[34:00] Detection plus intervention against AI deepfakes[38:00] Three regulatory regimes shaping the internet[40:00] What regulators misunderstand about dating apps[44:30] Why the future of trust and safety is governance[47:30] Spencer Rascoff and the CAC reframe[49:00] Resilience and mission in trust and safety work[51:30] ClosingProfile: Yoel Roth, Senior Vice President, Trust & Safety, Match GroupLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yoelroth/Personal Website: https://yoyoel.com/Podcast Information: Bernard Leong hosts and produces the show.

This Day in Legal History: Dominion of Newfoundland Becomes 10th ProvinceOn March 31, 1949, the Dominion of Newfoundland officially entered Confederation, becoming Canada's tenth province under the terms negotiated with the government of Canada. This union followed a series of national referendums in Newfoundland, where voters ultimately chose confederation over alternatives such as responsible government or economic union with the United States. The legal foundation for this transition was established through the British North America Act 1949, which amended Canada's constitutional framework to admit Newfoundland as a province. These Terms of Union set out the division of powers, financial arrangements, and transitional provisions necessary to integrate Newfoundland into the Canadian federation.One key legal issue involved the assumption of Newfoundland's public debt by Canada, which required careful fiscal and statutory planning to ensure a smooth transition. The agreement also guaranteed certain social benefits, including family allowances, aligning Newfoundland residents with federal welfare programs already in place across Canada. Additionally, the Terms addressed transportation links, committing Canada to maintaining ferry services and improving infrastructure between Newfoundland and the mainland. Legal provisions were also made for the continuation of Newfoundland's existing laws until they could be harmonized with Canadian federal and provincial statutes.The union raised constitutional questions about federalism, particularly how a previously self-governing dominion would adapt to a provincial role within Canada's system. It also required coordination between British and Canadian authorities, as Newfoundland had been under direct British administration prior to confederation. The involvement of British Parliament underscored the imperial legal framework still governing such transitions at the time. Over time, Newfoundland's legal system was gradually aligned with Canadian norms, though some regional distinctions persisted.This event illustrates the complexity of constitutional amendment and territorial integration within a federal system, particularly when sovereignty is partially transferred. It highlights how legal agreements can structure not only governance but also economic and social policy for newly incorporated regions. The Terms of Union remain a foundational legal document in Newfoundland and Labrador's relationship with Canada today.The U.S. Department of Labor has proposed a rule that would expand access to alternative investments in retirement plans, but the shift raises real concerns—especially because it opens the door to assets like cryptocurrency. Framed as a clarification of fiduciary duties under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the proposal creates a “safe harbor” process that makes it easier for plan managers to justify including complex and higher-risk investments.At its core, the rule emphasizes that fiduciary responsibility is about process, not outcomes. That means as long as plan fiduciaries can show they considered factors like performance, fees, liquidity, valuation, and complexity, their decisions may be presumed prudent—even if the investments themselves are volatile or difficult to value.The proposal also reinforces that no category of investment is off-limits, explicitly rejecting any per se restrictions. That neutrality is doing a lot of work: in practice, it signals that assets like private equity, and notably digital assets such as crypto, can now be more comfortably included in 401(k)-style plans.Supporters argue this expands diversification and potential returns, but the tradeoffs are significant. Many of these alternative assets are less transparent, harder to price, and more illiquid than traditional investments—risks that are especially concerning in retirement accounts designed for long-term stability. Crypto, in particular, introduces extreme volatility and regulatory uncertainty, which may sit uneasily with ERISA's protective purpose.The rule also appears designed to curb the rise in fiduciary litigation by giving courts a reason to defer to plan managers who follow the outlined process. While that may reduce frivolous lawsuits, it could also make it harder for participants to challenge genuinely risky or poorly performing investment choices.In effect, the proposal shifts the balance: it gives fiduciaries more flexibility and legal cover, but potentially at the cost of exposing retirement savers to more complex and speculative assets. The big question is whether procedural compliance should be enough when the underlying investments themselves may carry substantial and unfamiliar risks.BREAKING: DOL Proposes Rule To Expand Alternative Investments In Retirement Plans - Law360Match Group has agreed to settle a lawsuit brought by the Federal Trade Commission over allegations that its OkCupidplatform improperly shared user data. According to regulators, the company allowed a third party, Clarifai, to access sensitive information from millions of users in 2014 without proper disclosure. This data reportedly included photos, demographic details, and location information, despite privacy policies suggesting otherwise.Under the settlement, Match Group is barred from misrepresenting how it handles user data and must implement compliance measures to ensure its privacy practices align with its public statements. The company did not admit liability as part of the agreement but could face financial penalties if it violates the terms in the future. The settlement still requires court approval.OkCupid stated that it has since improved its privacy protections and that the conduct at issue does not reflect its current practices.Match Group settles US FTC claims it illegally shared OkCupid user data | ReutersIn my column for Bloomberg this week, I argue that Georgia's gas tax holiday is poorly timed, arriving not during a routine price increase but at the onset of a global, war-driven supply shock. While the policy may appear to offer immediate relief at the pump, I explain that higher prices actually play a necessary role in a market economy by signaling scarcity and pushing consumers to reduce demand. By lowering gas prices artificially, the state disrupts that signal, encouraging more consumption when conservation is most needed.I point out that this kind of intervention weakens the natural coordination between supply and demand, keeping consumption higher than the market can sustain and ultimately prolonging the imbalance. Rather than solving the problem, it risks shifting it into the future in the form of tighter supplies or even shortages. I also note that policies like this are politically attractive because they are visible and easy to implement, but that same visibility effectively subsidizes fuel use at the worst possible moment.Drawing on the experience of the 1970s energy crisis, I argue that similar efforts to shield consumers from rising prices led to distortions, long lines, and delayed adjustment rather than lasting relief. I describe the gas tax holiday as “affordability theater,” giving the illusion of help while masking the underlying scarcity and potentially leading to higher costs later. At the same time, I highlight how broader policy choices are working against long-term solutions by discouraging alternative energy sources and making substitutes like electric vehicles less accessible.I acknowledge that rising gas prices create real hardship, especially for lower- and middle-income households, but I argue that relief should be targeted and delivered through mechanisms like refundable tax credits or commuter benefits. This approach would help households manage costs without incentivizing additional fuel consumption. I also emphasize the need for policies that actively reduce demand, such as investing in public transit, encouraging remote work, and promoting conservation.Finally, I argue that any revenue gains from higher prices should be used to strengthen infrastructure and energy resilience rather than masking current problems. I conclude that while supply shocks inevitably bring economic pain, delaying adjustment through misguided policies will only make the consequences more severe in the long run.

Valentine's Day feels effortless on the surface—red hearts, last‑minute roses, a playlist called “forever.” Pull back the foil, and you'll find contracts, case law, and platform rules deciding which colors, words, motifs, and links reach your eyes first. We walk through 14 “love battles” where romance collides with intellectual property: Cadbury's Pantone 2685C fight over color marks, Interflora's keyword dispute that previews today's AI overviews, and the rise of platform power that summarizes answers before you ever click.We unpack how greeting cards separate protectable expression from generic tropes, and why enforcement now pairs rights holders with marketplaces using AI to spot copycats at scale. On the luxury front, Cartier defends the LOVE bracelet across word marks and 3D trade dress, tackling influencer “hidden link” schemes and winning when “love” functions as a brand, not a feeling. Yet design law still draws limits: nature's shared alphabet belongs to everyone, as seen in jewelry motif disputes where distinct execution—not broad ideas—earns protection.Music and media add fresh edges. Stairway to Heaven narrows claims built on genre grammar, while The Wind Done Gone affirms that transformative critique can legally reframe a classic romance. In apps, the Match Group vs Bumble saga raises whether swipes, card stacks, and mutual opt-in logic are ownable inventions or common digital language. And in a striking turn, New Zealand's Supreme Court confirms that copyrights created during marriage carry divisible value, even as the artist keeps the rights—proof that creative assets follow economics into family law.Across these stories, one theme holds: clarity beats sentiment. Draft precisely, prove distinctiveness, and enforce where decisions happen—search pages, social feeds, marketplaces, and now AI summaries. If you care about brand integrity, creator rights, and what shows up when urgency drives the buy, you'll find practical insights and timely warnings here.

Über Dating-Apps finden viele Menschen ihre Liebe. Doch manche Userinnen und User erleben dort den Horror. Immer wieder kommt es bei Dates oder beim Chatten zu Missbrauch und Belästigung.Innerhalb eines Jahres hat die Match Group, der Mutterkonzern der Dating-Apps Tinder und Hinge, alleine aus der EU fast eine Million Meldungen wegen Missbrauch oder Belästigung erhalten.

Why do people risk everything for love but treat sex like it's no big deal? Why is intimacy the most expensive thing in a brothel? And why do jealousy, infidelity, and heartbreak push otherwise rational people into behavior they later can't explain? Evolutionary biologist and sex researcher Justin Garcia, executive director of the Kinsey Institute and author of The Intimate Animal, joins Michael Shermer for a candid conversation about the biology of sex, the evolutionary logic of pair bonding, and why love—not lust—is what often pushes people past the point of reason. Justin R. Garcia is an evolutionary biologist and sex researcher. He is Executive Director & Senior Scientist at the Kinsey Institute. He is also the Scientific Advisor to Match Group and Match.com, where he provides expertise to the company's annual Singles in America study. His research has been featured in outlets like The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, TIME, Cosmopolitan, and Vanity Fair. His new book is The Intimate Animal.
Dating and relationships have never been simple — but in today's world of apps, algorithms, and endless options, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and disconnected. In this episode, I speak with Dr. Justin Garcia, Executive Director of the Kinsey Institute, evolutionary biologist, sex researcher, and author of the upcoming book The Intimate Animal. We talk about what our biology can (and can't) tell us about love and desire, how technology is reshaping intimacy, and why breakups can hit so hard. We also get personal — sharing stories about grief, recovery, non-monogamy, and navigating love in the real world. Dr. Garcia brings a refreshingly nuanced perspective, blending science, lived experience, and a deep respect for the complexities of modern relationships. Topics Covered The biological basis of pair bonding and why love is a survival strategy How dating apps are changing the way we connect — and the pitfalls of infinite choice Non-monogamy, open relationships, and what science really says about them Breakups, heartbreak, and why they feel like addiction withdrawal Infidelity: what motivates it, and why it's often about secrecy more than sex Practical dating advice backed by years of research The neuroscience of attraction, and how foreplay, communication, and intention keep passion alive How personal experience shaped Dr. Garcia's latest work — including his own recent marriage and fatherhood Guest Bio Dr. Justin Garcia is an evolutionary biologist, sex researcher, and Executive Director of the Kinsey Institute at Indiana University. He's also the Chief Scientific Advisor for Match Group, guiding large-scale studies on modern relationships like the annual Singles in America survey. His research has been featured in outlets like The New York Times, TIME, and CNN, and his new book The Intimate Animal: The Science of Sex, Fidelity, and Why We Live and Die for Love will be released on January 27, 2026.

We're wired for long-term bonding, but novelty and desire often create tension within those bonds. Breakups are more than emotional — they're neurochemical. Love activates the brain's reward systems, and heartbreak can mimic drug withdrawal. Modern dating can feel overwhelming because our brains haven't evolved to handle endless digital choice. Intention and curiosity matter more than perfection. Non-monogamous relationships aren't inherently less loving or stable. They often demand high levels of communication and negotiation. Infidelity is less about desire and more about secrecy. Even in non-monogamous relationships, broken trust hurts. There's no perfect formula for love. Each connection is unique, and understanding yourself can help you show up better in relationships. Connect with Me Have a question, topic suggestion, or want to be a guest?

Ron De Jesus is the Field Chief Privacy Officer at Transcend, driving practical privacy governance and industry advocacy. He previously led privacy at Grindr, Tinder, and Match Group, built global programs at Tapestry and American Express, founded De Jesus Consulting, and remains an active community leader through the IAPP and LGBTQ Privacy & Tech Network. In this episode… Privacy professionals navigate a growing web of privacy regulations and emerging technologies, yet many still rely on manual processes to manage their programs. Teams might track global requirements in spreadsheets and manually triage privacy rights requests. To scale privacy programs effectively, teams need to move beyond manual approaches. So what should privacy teams consider as they adopt automated solutions? The key to scaling privacy programs efficiently lies in embracing automation and technology that aligns with an organization's broader goals. When privacy leaders secure early buy-in from stakeholders, technology decisions are more likely to support the business beyond basic compliance needs. Teams also need clarity on what they are trying to accomplish, a thorough understanding of where their data lives, and time to evaluate how new tech fits into their existing systems and workflows. Sometimes teams expect third-party privacy tools to work out of the box and solve their compliance needs. However, that is often not the case, and why companies must review and test vendor tech solutions to ensure they accurately meet company requirements. In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels talk with Ron De Jesus, Field Chief Privacy Officer at Transcend, about transitioning privacy programs from manual processes to automation. Ron emphasizes the importance of internal alignment when adopting privacy technology, discusses the risks of treating privacy tools as plug-and-play compliance solutions, and highlights the need for companies to review vendor tech solutions against their specific requirements and legal obligations. He also explains how the privacy community helps shape his view of how teams operationalize privacy in practice and shares his prediction for what's in store for privacy professionals in 2026.

It's November again, and that means a bunch of people on the internet are giving up masturbation for the month. While “No Nut November” is a relatively recent phenomenon, it actually has deep roots and reflects humans' longstanding and very complicated relationship with self-pleasure. In this show, we’re talking about the history of masturbation and why people are so conflicted over it. My guest is Dr. Eric Sprankle, an Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology and the co-director of the Sexuality Studies program at Minnesota State University, Mankato. He’s also a licensed clinical psychologist and AASECT-certified sex therapist affiliated with the Minnesota Sexual Health Institute. His latest book is DIY: The Wonderfully Weird History and Science of Masturbation. Some of the specific topics we explore in this episode include: Where does the idea of masturbation as sinful originate? Historically, how have religious and political figures dissuaded people from masturbating? When did masturbation start to become a public health concern? How has the rise of social media coincided with the rise of negative views of masturbation? You can visit Eric’s website to learn more about his work. Got a sex question?

Social media has turned therapy into a language that almost everyone seems to speak these days, which is why your feed is probably full of posts about topics like trauma, boundaries, and gaslighting. In this episode, we're taking a closer look at the rise of “therapy speak” and how, for better or for worse, it's reshaping the way we talk about emotions, conflict, and relationships. I am joined by Joe Nucci, a licensed psychotherapist, writer, and social media influencer. His debut book, Psychobabble: Viral Mental Health Myths & the Truth To Set You Free, is available wherever books are sold. Some of the specific topics we explore in this episode include: What are some of the problems with overusing therapy speak? How is social media changing the way people think about and approach relationships? What does the term “love-bombing” actually mean? How do you know the difference between something like love-bombing and just moving fast in a relationship? You can check out Joe’s website to learn more about his work. Got a sex question?

Cindy Lim is the founder and Head of Brand for a new app called Yuzu. Launched in early 2024 by Match Group (the same company behind Tinder, Hinge, etc), Yuzu brands itself as a social + dating platform aimed at the Gen Z Asian community (but open to all). Many mainstream dating apps are generalized; Yuzu is part of a trend of “niche” dating/social apps catering to specific demographics (in this case Asian community) and offering more than just dating. The social mode emphasizes friendship/community (not just hookups/dating) which is increasingly important to younger users. By embedding culture (heritage, interests, community events) it hopes to foster deeper connections rather than superficial ones. The core target is the Asian diaspora (Asian Americans, Asian immigrants, pan-Asian culture) looking for social or romantic connection. It also welcomes people of any race/ethnicity so long as they engage respectfully with the cultural focus. It's especially for people who want both friendship/community and the option of dating in the same space: Yuzu tries to blend those rather than only romance. It's attracting people who are comfortable with culturally-aware branding (celebrating Asian heritage, culture, shared values) — it's not a purely “swipe and date” generic app. www.joinyuzu.com
When it comes to sex, we often think about safety and pleasure as being at odds with one another. But it doesn’t have to be this way. In this episode, we’re talking about some new Kinsey Institute research looking at people’s experiences with Lorals for Protection, a product designed to offer both protection and pleasure during oral sex. I am joined by Dr. Cynthia Graham, a senior scientist at the Kinsey Institute. She is editor-in-chief of the Journal of Sex Research and conducts research on a number of important sexual health topics. Some of the specific areas we explore in this show include: Why do discussions about safer sex almost always leave oral sex out of the equation? Oral sex is often thought of as a low- or no-risk activity, but is that really the case? How come dental dams never really caught on? How does Lorals offer something different compared to other barrier methods? How can we help people to maximize both pleasure and safety during sexual activity?

This week, our hosts Dave Bittner , Joe Carrigan, and Maria Varmazis (also host of the T-Minus Space Daily show) are sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. We start off with a celebration of Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Joe's story is on how the North Wales Police are warning cryptocurrency holders after a victim lost £2.1 million in Bitcoin to a highly targeted scam, where criminals posing as police used a fake security breach story to trick them into entering their password on a fraudulent site. Dave has two stories this week, the first one from a Reddit user being targeted by the classic "White Van Scam," where scammers tried to sell cheap projectors as high-end equipment using a fake story and forged receipt. In his second story, the FBI is warning that cybercriminals are spoofing its official IC3 website to steal personal information and scam victims, urging users to type the URL directly and avoid suspicious links or fake social media pages. Maria has the story on two U.S. senators pressing Tinder parent company Match Group to step up efforts against romance scams, demanding details on how it detects fraud and protects users from criminals exploiting trust on its platforms. Our catch of the day comes from Reddit where a user was targeted by a scammer, but cleverly was able to get them to retreat.

Shawn O'Malley and Daniel Mahncke break down Match Group (ticker: MTCH), a company that operates as part of a duopoly in online dating, owning a number of dating platforms, including Tinder, Match.com, Hinge, OkCupid, and more, with specialized platforms appealing to certain demographics and dating niches. During the Pandemic, the company was a popular growth stock, but as the number of paying users at Tinder has declined, the business has stagnated, and the market has punished it severely. Yet, the company is still quite profitable, yielding a seemingly attractive valuation. In this episode, you'll learn about the unique business behind online dating, why Match is having trouble resonating with Gen Z, how large the TAM is for online dating, the most important things the company is focusing on to reinvigorate Tinder, why Hinge may be the future of Match Group and online dating, and whether Match Group is attractively priced, plus so much more! IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN: 00:00 – Intro 07:24 - What advantages Match Group has in its favor as the world's largest online-dating company 29:05 - About Match's origin story as a spinoff and its executive turnover 35:59 - The biggest structural challenges weighing on Match Group's growth 44:44 - Why the senior dating market may be a growth engine for Match Group 46:50 - How Match Group operates and competes as part of a duopoly with Bumble 47:19 - Why investors are so weary of the online dating industry 01:03:18 - How to think about modeling MTCH's intrinsic value 01:07:28 - Whether Shawn and Daniel add MTCH to their Intrinsic Value Portfolio *Disclaimer: Slight timestamp discrepancies may occur due to podcast platform differences.

Blake and David discuss how both AICPA and NASBA have officially endorsed a 120-hour CPA licensure pathway in the ninth edition of the Uniform Accountancy Act, validating Blake's long-standing advocacy against the 150-hour requirement. They also examine Baker Tilly's policy, which requires CPAs to remove their designations from email signatures and LinkedIn profiles due to alternative practice structures. They move on to the launch of GPT-5, praising its improved integration but noting concerning chart errors in OpenAI's presentation and ongoing hallucination issues. Rounding things out, they also discuss Trump's firing of newly-appointed IRS Commissioner Billy Long after just weeks in office, comparing it to his dismissal of the Bureau of Labor Statistics head over unfavorable job revision data.SponsorsOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpay Keeper - http://accountingpodcast.promo/keeperMissive - http://accountingpodcast.promo/missive TeamUp - http://accountingpodcast.promo/teamupChapters(00:41) - AICPA and NASBA owe Blake an apology (02:35) - AI and GPT-5 Launch (04:17) - CPA License Controversy (13:04) - IRS and BLS Firings (24:54) - Tariffs and Economic Impact (37:13) - Impressive Results with GPT-5 (41:13) - Private Equity and Accounting Firms (45:16) - AI Errors in High-Stakes Presentations (56:41) - SEC's New Stable Coin Regulations (59:56) - China's Response to US Stable Coin Regulations (01:01:16) - KPMG and the Silicon Valley Bank Collapse (01:03:20) - Macy's Executive Bonuses Clawed Back (01:05:33) - Luckin Coffee's Auditor Penalized (01:08:34) - Mike Lynch's Estate Hit with $1 Billion Judgment (01:09:51) - Match Group's Stock Surge and Economic Optimism (01:12:58) - Final Thoughts and Continuing Education Show NotesNASBA, AICPA give blessing to 120-hour CPA pathwayhttps://www.cfo.com/news/governing-bodies-of-accounting-give-blessing-to-120-hour-cpa-requirement/754033/ AICPA and NASBA Approve Model Legislation for New CPA Licensure Pathhttps://nasba.org/blog/2025/05/13/aicpa-and-nasba-approve-model-legislation-for-new-cpa-licensure-path/NASBA and AICPA Publish Ninth Edition of the Uniform Accountancy Act (UAA)https://nasba.org/blog/2025/07/22/nasba-and-aicpa-publish-ninth-edition-of-the-uniform-accountancy-act-uaa/Alaska Becomes the Latest State to Offer an Alternate CPA Pathway, With No Help From the Governorhttps://www.goingconcern.com/alaska-becomes-the-latest-state-to-offer-an-alternate-cpa-pathway-with-no-help-from-the-governor/CPA requirements by statehttps://www.cfo.com/news/cpa-requirements-by-state-cfo-accounting-updates-changes-150-hour/740328/Baker Tilly Secures Private Equity Investment in Largest CPA Transaction to Datehttps://insidepublicaccounting.com/2024/02/05/baker-tilly-secures-private-equity-investment-in-largest-cpa-transaction-to-date/Trump ousts Billy Long as IRS commissioner, names Bessent acting headhttps://www.cnn.com/2025/08/08/politics/billy-long-ousted-irs-commissionerIRS Commissioner Billy Long replaced after less than two monthshttps://www.npr.org/2025/08/08/nx-s1-5496549/irs-billy-long-trumpTrump removes Billy Long as IRS commissioner, giving him the shortest-ever tenure in the rolehttps://federalnewsnetwork.com/management/2025/08/trump-removes-billy-long-as-irs-commisioner-less-than-2-months-after-his-confirmation/OpenAI botches the charts in GPT-5 introductionhttps://flowingdata.com/2025/08/07/openai-botches-the-charts-in-gpt-5-introduction/GPT-5 Launch Demo Plagued With Catastrophically Dumb Errorshttps://futurism.com/gpt-5-demo-dumb-errorsSam Altman addresses 'bumpy' GPT-5 rollout, bringing 4o back, and the 'chart crime'https://techcrunch.com/2025/08/08/sam-altman-addresses-bumpy-gpt-5-rollout-bringing-4o-back-and-the-chart-crime/Introducing GPT-5https://openai.com/index/introducing-gpt-5/Need CPE?Get CPE for listening to podcasts with Earmark: https://earmarkcpe.comSubscribe to the Earmark Podcast: https://podcast.earmarkcpe.comGet in TouchThanks for listening and the great reviews!

What if your most profitable campaign window isn't Black Friday or Cyber Monday… but after the holidays, when everyone else is quiet? While most marketers are winding down, savvy brands are doubling down—tapping into the “Q5” period between Christmas and early January, when ad prices drop, engagement spikes, and consumers are laser-focused on their New Year goals. Today we're digging into how AI is revolutionizing brand partnerships, why micro-influencers might be your secret Q5 weapon, and what smart marketers are doing to turn a slow season into a sales surge.To discuss this, I'd like to welcome Xavier de Baillenx, CEO of Ramdam, an AI-powered creator platform working with over 50,000 influencers globally. About Xavier de Baillenx Xavier de Baillenx is a serial entrepreneur and the Co-founder and CEO of Ramdam, an AI-powered platform that streamlines user-generated content (UGC) production for brands, optimizing every step of the creative process. Launched in 2023 by the same team known for their previous venture, Pretty Fun Therapy, acquired by Match Group (the company behind Tinder and Hinge), Ramdam empowers advertisers to connect with the right creators, delivering high-performing ads that elevate social media campaigns and eliminate the guesswork of the creative lottery. The platform quickly gained recognition, with brands like Allianz, Voodoo, and Colgate-Palmolive leveraging Ramdam to achieve up to an 80% improvement in performance compared to traditional UGC marketplaces. Ramdam's rapid success also led to securing $3.15 million in funding in October 2024 to accelerate its global expansion. Xavier's entrepreneurial journey began in 2013 when he co-founded Pretty Fun Therapy with his current team, a venture that was acquired by Match Group, the company behind Tinder and Hinge, in 2016.

Today, I'm talking with Hinge founder and CEO Justin McLeod. Hinge is one of the biggest dating apps in the United States — it's rivaled only by Tinder, and both are owned by the massive conglomerate Match Group, which has consolidated a huge chunk of the online dating ecosystem. Justin and I dug into that here, and we also explored some of the thorny issues around AI and dating, Hinge's monetization, and data privacy in the second Trump administration.

Content warning: assault, sexual assault, rape, serial rape, and nonconsensual pornography. As shared in part one of her story, Hannah Vanderhorst is a special education teacher and administrator living in Denver, Colorado. Having moved to the city in 2016, just before going through a breakup, Hannah turned to dating apps to expand her social circle and look for potential love. However, an October 2019 date changed her trajectory forever. It was on this date that she became a victim of a serial sexual predator, although she wouldn't find that out until over three years after her assault. Hannah would then join a taxing legal battle to receive justice, witness legal change elicited by her and others' experiences, and work to heal from the trauma. The Broken Cycle Media team is grateful that Hannah was willing to so selflessly share her story to bring awareness to our listeners. Sources: Allyn, B. (2024, February 15).
