Leadership expert and author Morag Barrett joins Doug Utberg to challenge the myth that “real connection means keeping the peace.” Together they unpack why the best teams — and the strongest friendships — aren't the ones that avoid conflict, but the ones that use it to grow stronger.Morag, founder of SkyTeam, shares how two decades of leadership research revealed a truth few executives want to hear: false harmony kills innovation. Real connection, she says, requires friction, feedback, and the courage to say the hard things before a crisis hits.Doug reflects on his own journey from people-pleasing to presence — and how letting go of performance-based validation can create genuine relationships at work and in life. The result? A conversation that's equal parts psychology, leadership, and personal transformation — reminding us that the path to trust runs straight through tension.TL;DR* Connection without conflict isn't trust — it's tolerance.* Great teams talk about tension before it breaks them.* Supporters agree; allies challenge and grow with you.* Presence beats performance — every time.* Friction, handled with care, forges deeper bonds.Memorable lines* “Connection isn't soft — it's steel wrapped in empathy.”* “Supporters make you comfortable; allies make you better.”* “False harmony is where innovation goes to die.”* “You can't build trust if no one's willing to be uncomfortable.”GuestMorag Barrett — Founder and CEO of SkyTeam, leadership expert, keynote speaker, and author of You, Me, We: Why We All Need a Friend at Work (and How to Show Up as One).- LinkedIn: - Website:Why it mattersTeams don't fail from lack of skill — they fail from lack of trust.

The music business from the late '60s through the '90s was an exciting time that mirrored the music and the musicians making it. It was also a time of new and creative ideas on how to market this groundbreaking cultural phenomenon. Eccentric characters were everywhere, and often the managers, promoters, disc jockeys, and record company staff were just as big a show as the performers themselves. And nobody was bigger and better in promoting rock records than Rap. Paul "Rap" Rappaport enjoyed a storied (and very appropriate) 33 1/3 year career in rock promotion at Columbia Records, where he was instrumental in the careers of an amazing roster of legends, including Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, Elvis Costello, Billy Joel, Blue Oyster Cult, Judas Priest, Alice In Chains, and many, many more. Gliders Over Hollywood: Airships, Airplay and the Art of Rock Promotion is Rap's dynamic, entertaining memoir captures the magic of these times and the people who made it happen, revealing the never-before-heard secrets of the promotion and marketing that turned the music industry on its head. From creating the Pink Floyd airship to sword-fighting with Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden and receiving a guitar lesson from Keith Richards, it's a book packed full of extraordinary adventures with some of the biggest names in rock. This week, Rap joins us as our Third Lad to recount the wild tales of his Top 5 Album Rollouts. These are stories you have to hear (or read) to believe! Learn more about your ad choices.

Employment attorney Gary Martoccio joins Doug Utberg to unpack how artificial intelligence is rewriting the rules of work — and where the law hasn't caught up yet. From layoffs driven by automation to courts banning AI-written pleadings, Gary breaks down how fast this shift is moving and what workers need to know before they sign a severance package. Doug and Gary explore how fear, efficiency, and regulation are colliding — and why most people shouldn't panic (yet).TL;DR* No federal or state laws currently prevent replacing humans with AI.* Discrimination in AI-related layoffs will trigger lawsuits — be careful who gets cut.* Severance packages often include waivers that kill your right to sue; read before signing.* AI is reshaping “back-office” legal work but can't replace human judgment in court.* Courts are banning AI-generated filings to protect legal integrity.* The real danger isn't mass job loss — it's unchecked confusion, burnout, and trauma from constant change.Memorable lines* “Regulation always lags the market — and AI is running a marathon at sprint speed.”* “You can't let ChatGPT argue your case in court — not yet, anyway.”* “Layoffs don't have to be illegal, but they do have to be fair.”* “Don't panic — AI isn't taking every job, just the ones nobody wants to do.”Guest:Gary Martoccio — Employment attorney representing plaintiffs in workplace disputes; expert in wrongful termination, discrimination, and AI-related employment challenges.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/suenorelle/Website: https://www.nobletalent.group/Why it mattersAI isn't just an innovation story — it's a workforce revolution with no rulebook. Understanding where legal lines are drawn (and where they aren't) helps both employers and employees navigate the next wave without getting blindsided.

Some experts estimate that ~15% of marriages are sexless, while others put the number as high as 33% ("sexless relationship" defined as a couple having sex 10 times a year or fewer).That's a lot of people.Now let's talk about the stakes:Does a sexless marriage generally mean a less fulfilling one? In a word, yes. According to researcher and associate professor Denis Donnelly in the New York Times, "Happy couples have more sex, and the more sex a couple has, the happier they report being." Plus, her research showed that folks in sexless marriages were more likely to have considered divorce than those in sexually active ones.So what do you do if you're in this position? How do you handle being in a sexless relationship or sexless marriage? Can you bring the sex back in -- repolarize the relationship? Here, we work on answering questions like: "How do I bring up sex with my wife?" -- in Jason's words, “A lot of guys don't know where to start because they don't know where it's coming from.”And, "What do I do if my wife doesn't want to have sex with me?" -- or how to handle the sense that when she does, it's more of her feeling like "this is a thing I have to do for you to get you off my back."It's a tender, vulnerable, and important subject. Let's dive in.---Work with usReady to go deeper than the podcast and take action? Jason and I can help you break old patterns and transform your sex & love life for good.

Welcome back into The Clubhouse!Penn State Legend Coach Stoner shares his inspiring journey in this special episode of The Clubhouse with Penn State Baseball! From growing up in State College to playing for the Nittany Lions in the 1960s, being drafted by the New York Yankees and Oakland Athletics, and eventually leading Penn State Baseball as head coach from 1982 to 1990, Coach Stoner reflects on the incredible highs and pivotal decisions that shaped his career.Here's what to expect:- His early days in State College and his path to becoming a Penn State player.- Being mentored by Penn State great Chuck Medler.- What it was like to turn down professional baseball opportunities to focus on building a future.- Coaching challenges, including limited resources and keeping the Penn State program alive.- Memorable stories from his playing and coaching days with legendary Coach Joe Paterno.FOLLOW STATE MEDIA HERE:► TWITTER | ⁠https://twitter.com/StateMediaPSU⁠► TIKTOK | ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@statemediapsu⁠► INSTAGRAM | ⁠https://www.instagram.com/statemediapsu/⁠► YOUTUBE | ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@StateMediaPSU?sub_confirmation=1⁠► FACEBOOK | https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558183472272CHAPTERS:00:00 - Intro01:30 - Growing up in State College02:35 - Playing at Penn State03:09 - Professional Baseball12:39 - Becoming Penn State Head Coach15:41 - Joe Paterno17:33 - Balancing Teaching and Coaching18:30 - Program Cuts20:54 - Baseball Schedule Overview21:53 - State of the Program31:10 - Penn State Baseball Facilities Tour33:45 - World Series Predictions35:50 - College Football Picks#collegebaseball #mlb #mlbb #pennstate #weare #happyvalley #baseball #sunday #saturday

In this week's episode of the Inside EMS podcast, cohosts Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson dive into the 2025 AHA Guidelines for CPR & ECC and why, for most EMS systems and crews, this feels more like a tune up than a full overhaul. They talk through what is different — like the adult/child choking algorithm change, the inclusion of an opioid overdose response algorithm with public naloxone access, and the shift to a single unified chain of survival across ages and settings. They also talk about what isn't new (for example, the recommendation that routine mechanical CPR devices are not better than manual compressions), why that matters, and how agencies should frame this for crews and training programs. Bottom line: the changes are real, the work is actionable, but this doesn't feel like a seismic shift — so use that to your advantage in getting buy-in from providers and avoiding the “huge change panic.” Memorable quotes “They're actually saying now, which I think is pretty cool, that individuals 12 and above can be taught CPR and how to use an AED.” “The key is early CPR and early defibrillation. And if you'regoing to get more bang for your buck, you need to devote your time to bystander CPR training and public AED access rather than buying fancy gadgets that are appealing but may not actually be supported by science.” “I find it interesting that we used to caution against this in CPR class: ‘Don't give 'em back blows. You may lodge it deeper into the trachea.' But now, I think they've looked at the data, and back blows are, at the very least, not harmful and may be beneficial.” “For those in leadership: audit all your protocols and training materials now. Find out where your system is aligned or out of step.” Enjoying the Inside EMS podcast? Email theshow@ems1.com to share feedback.

Episode logline:Saxophonist—and bassist—Gerald Albright talks origin stories, the punch and polish behind “Living My Best Life,” why the title cut “Full Throttle” opens up onstage, and what listeners can expect when his band hits Oakland.About our guestA pillar of contemporary jazz with decades of touring and studio work, Gerald Albright writes and produces with a rhythm-section mindset. He came up on saxophone in South Central Los Angeles, later added bass guitar, and now releases music independently on Bright Music Records. That hybrid vantage shapes sets built on pulse, melody, and forward motion.What we cover·      Origins & influences. How a church-lesson pivot put a sax in his hands—“I immediately fell in love with the saxophone”—and why Maceo Parker's clarity and percussive bite became a lifelong model.·      Hearing from two chairs. The bass guitar changed how he writes and locks the pocket: “Now I'm in the rhythm section, where there's the meat and potatoes of the groove… I combine the two to create the best music I can.”·      Studio craft → stage energy. The gleam and stacked-horn sound of “Living My Best Life” grew from pandemic-era time in the studio: “I learned how to mix my own records… I like to put the horns right up front.”·      Why “Full Throttle” stretches live. “I wanted the freedom to really stretch out and play… When we play it live, we really get to go full throttle.”·      What fans can look forward to. A high-energy, audience-involved night that blends burners and love songs, drawn from a catalog spanning 20-plus projects.·      What's next. A new, as-yet-untitled EP in the mixing stage—“the music is coming out phenomenal”—with touring to follow.Featured tracks (discussed in this episode)·      “Living My Best Life” — stacked horn writing, sleek rhythm bed, and the producer's ear for space.·      “Full Throttle” — title track from G-Stream 3 – Full Throttle, built for improvisation when the band opens it up on stage.The band on these datesAnthony Brown, Jr. (bass), Colin “CC” Clawson (keyboards), and James “JRob” Roberson (musical director, drums).Memorable quotes·      “I immediately fell in love with the saxophone.”·      “The bass chair put me where the meat and potatoes of the groove live.”·      “I like the horns right up front—that's the sound!”Listen for·      How Albright connects Maceo Parker's articulation to his own attack.·      The way a bassist's perspective shapes phrasing, form, and set flow.·      Why new independent releases keep his horn stacks, mixes, and repertoire exactly as he envisions them.Links & infoTickets: Yoshi's Oakland — https://yoshis.com/events/buy-tickets/gerald-albright-10/detailGerald Albright — Official site: https://geraldalbright.com/CreditsHost: Steve Roby — Backstage Bay Area.Production: Backstage Bay Area Audio.

In this solo episode, Dr. Debi shares 11 anonymized, real-world scenarios showing how unhealed betrayal quietly derails performance, leadership, health, and culture at work. From weight changes and gut issues to micromanagement, perfectionism, disengagement, and self-betrayal, you'll see how a personal rupture (even years old) can surface on the job—and what to do about it. You'll also hear research-backed prevalence stats (weight, gut, sleep) and a clear invitation to move from Stages 2–3 (shock and survival) into Stages 4–5 (healing and growth).    Who this episode is for  Professionals, leaders, and founders who feel “off” at work and can't trace why  HR/people leaders noticing unexplained dips in performance, morale, or collaboration  Anyone who suspects an earlier betrayal might still be shaping today's choices, health, and capacity    Key concepts & signals  Betrayal shows up at work physically (weight, gut, sleep), mentally (focus, overthinking), emotionally (hypervigilance, distrust).  Nervous system hijack: After broken trust, people often swing to micromanagement, second-guessing, isolation, or over-preparation.  Stages matter: Creativity, confidence, and connection typically reliably return as you move into Stages 4–5 of the 5-Stage model.  Research snapshots (from Debi's community data):  Weight/eating struggles: ~47%  Gut issues (IBS/Crohn's/constipation/diarrhea): ~45%  Sleep problems: ~68%    Case snapshots (anonymized)  Sarah — Weight & confidence spiral Discovery of husband + best friend affair → stress eating → +40 lbs, pre-diabetes, energy crash. Missed two promotions; client-facing confidence plummeted.  Marcus — Gut & career derailment Brother's $50k “investment” betrayal (borrowed from 401k) → nausea → IBS, 30 missed days in 6 months, $12k out-of-pocket care → transfer to lower-paying support role.  Jennifer — From empowering to micromanaging Daughter's addiction/deceit eroded trust → hypervigilance, excessive approvals, morale drop → $30k demotion.  David — Cultural catalyst to clock-watcher Father covertly rewrote will for estranged sister → emotional numbness → stopped mentoring/initiatives → ~25% drop in departmental satisfaction.  Lisa — Anxiety, over-prep, stalled growth Fiancé + maid of honor affair weeks before wedding → panic in meetings, medical leave, therapy costs → over-preparation and hesitation → lost Senior Manager promotion.  Tom — Creativity collapse Close friend's emotional affair with his partner during family caregiving → withdrew creative risk-taking → lost edge in pitches → 3 major accounts (~$2M) missed.  Rachel — Sleepless CEO Sister's manipulation of elderly mother & finances → insomnia, ruminations → poorer board-level decisions, investor strain, performance dip; sleep meds added side-effects.  Kevin — Isolation after double betrayal Wife left for best friend → withdrew from people, closed-door leadership → cross-functional effectiveness down ~40%; silos and delays multiplied.  Maria — Paralysis by over-analysis Business + romantic partner embezzled to fund secret life → hyper-checking, documentation glut → missed time-sensitive opportunities; costly lost trading advantage.  Robert — Purpose lost, pipeline thins Adult son (aided by brother) sued him for “emotional damages” → quit mentoring/junior development → leadership pipeline weakened; burnout → early retirement.  Andrea (self-betrayal) — Successful but misaligned Pressured away from teaching into law → chronic fatigue, migraines, disengagement, ~30% billable drop, ~$800k lost potential revenue → leave of absence. The cost wasn't only professional—it was existential.    How to spot it (self-check)  “I don't recognize how I lead or work anymore.” (micromanaging, over-prepping, perfectionism)  “My body is louder than my calendar.” (gut flares, migraines, insomnia before big decisions)  “I'm here but not really here.” (numbness, disengagement, loss of initiative/mentoring)  “I don't trust my read on people.” (multiple confirmations for simple tasks, second-guessing)  “I'm productive—but always late.” (hyper-vigilant thoroughness that kills timeliness)  “I'm successful—and empty.” (self-betrayal: achievement without meaning)    Try this: 6 reflection prompts  Which case felt uncomfortably familiar—and why?  Where does betrayal show up most for you: body, mind, or relationships at work?  What do you over-do (control, analyze, isolate) to feel safer—and what does it cost?  Which responsibility did you stop (mentoring, initiating, pitching) after the rupture?  What would “Stage 4–5 me” do differently this week?  If self-betrayal is the theme, what small act of alignment could you take in 72 hours?    If you lead a team (HR, managers, execs)  Watch for sudden style flips (empowering → micromanaging; creative → conventional).  Replace “performance policing” with support + boundaries (clear priorities, fewer approvals, flexible micro-rest).  Offer psychological safety + access to evidence-based healing resources; normalize PTO for real recovery.  Protect culture carriers (your “Davids”)—and rebuild when they dim.    Practical next steps  Name it: If you recognized yourself, that's progress.  Assess: Take the Post Betrayal Syndrome® indicators seriously (weight, gut, sleep).  Stabilize the body: Basic routines (sleep hygiene, hydration, movement) reduce reactivity.  Skill up: Learn boundaries, rebuild self-trust, and pace decisions during healing.  Advance stages: If you're in Stages 2–3, get guided support to move into 4–5, where creativity, confidence, and connection reliably return.  Share back: Tell Dr. Debi which story resonated most; it helps tailor future episodes.  Memorable lines  “We can try to leave betrayal at the door—but our body and leadership bring it to work.”  “Micromanagement is often a trust injury in disguise.”  “Success that betrays you is still betrayal.”  Resources & links  The PBT Institute — programs, coaches, community: https://thepbtinstitute.com/  Corporate/HR offerings & talks: https://thepbtinstitute.com/corporate/  Tell Dr. Debi which scenario hit home for you, and what you'll try this week.

Directed by Academy Award winner Guillermo del Toro (The Shape of Water, Pan's Labyrinth), Blade II (2002) takes Marvel's Daywalker saga to new, blood-soaked heights. Wesley Snipes (Demolition Man, White Men Can't Jump) returns as Blade, the half-human, half-vampire warrior sworn to rid the world of the undead. This time, Blade must form an uneasy alliance with the Bloodpack — a lethal team of vampires led by Nyssa Damaskinos (Leonor Varela – Cleopatra, Arrested Development) and Asad (Danny John-Jules – Red Dwarf, Maid Marian and Her Merry Men) — to stop a terrifying new breed of predator: the Reapers. With their grotesque split jaws and insatiable thirst, the Reapers threaten both humans and vampires alike. Memorable moments include the explosive nightclub fight, Blade's intense sword battles, and the shocking reveal of Nomak (Luke Goss – Hellboy II: The Golden Army, Death Race 2) as the first of the Reapers and Nyssa's brother. Also starring Kris Kristofferson (A Star Is Born, Lone Star) as Whistler, Norman Reedus (The Walking Dead, The Boondock Saints) as Scud, and Ron Perlman (Hellboy, Sons of Anarchy) as Reinhardt, Blade II is a gothic action-horror classic filled with del Toro's signature visuals, martial arts spectacle, and bloody mayhem.

We explore how avoidance, disguised as politeness, slowly erodes trust — and how courageous conversations can actually strengthen relationships and performance. Katherine breaks down what “calling out the elephant” looks like in practice: reading the emotional landscape, choosing timing over impulse, and speaking truth without weaponizing it.From emotional intelligence to communication frameworks, we examine how leaders can replace fear with curiosity — and transform tension into alignment.TL;DR* Avoidance kills trust faster than conflict ever will.* Clarity + compassion = productive honesty.* Name the issue early — silence grows resentment.* True kindness includes telling the truth.* Courageous dialogue builds stronger, safer teams.Memorable lines* “Kindness without honesty is just avoidance in disguise.”* “The longer you avoid the elephant, the bigger it gets.”* “When you name what's real, people finally exhale.”* “Courage isn't about comfort — it's about connection.”Guest: Katherine Lazaruk — Founder, LZRK Consulting | Executive Coach & Keynote Speaker LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katherinelazaruk/ Website: https://lzrkconsulting.com/Why it mattersEvery organization has its unspoken truths — unaddressed conflicts, performance gaps, or cultural tension. Leaders who learn to name those realities, with empathy and clarity, create workplaces where honesty isn't feared but valued. The courage to speak the unsaid is what separates management from leadership.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

In North America, we tend to think of circumcision as "normal" and "widespread." But did you know that circumcision as a practice only became widespread in the US in the mid 1900s?So what's the deal? Why did it originate as a practice and why has it persisted? And perhaps most importantly, what is the impact on a man -- both physiologically as well as psychologically?The answers may surprise you -- I know they did me. I was unaware, for example, of the extent to which intact foreskin helps a man with sexual pleasure. I also didn't realize that foreskin restoration is a thing -- that if you've been circumcised, there's actually a way to re-grow foreskin.There's a lot of intensity and sensitivity around this subject, and for good reason: It matters deeply. If you yourself are circumcised, you have loved ones who are, and especially if you're a parent-to-be, please listen. It's important.---Work with usReady to go deeper than the podcast and take action? Jason and I can help you break old patterns and transform your sex & love life for good.

Still more with Selah and Kori. "The Line Squad" is a night that all but changed Washington D.C. Scooters, memorials, laughs and a little mayhem best describe the two-hour adventure for the media team. And Honor Flight 33's visit to Arlington National Cemetery. Arguably the most memorable stop on the entire three-day journey. Memorable, not only for the 67 veterans but for Selah and the special moment she was able to experience.

Sue spent years leading high-performing teams in New York City's recruitment world. Then came burnout, long commutes, and layoffs. With a newborn and a toddler at home, she decided to stop building other people's companies and start her own. In this episode, we unpack what it really takes to pivot from paycheck to purpose — fear, patience, and the discipline to design a life around freedom, not frenzy.We dive into what founders get wrong about scale, how “stickiness” beats speed, and why being your own bottleneck can kill your dream faster than any competitor. From cash flow realities to the myth of overnight success, Sue shares the emotional and tactical lessons of rebuilding after collapse.TL;DR* The courage equation: Real growth = equal parts fear and excitement.* Don't go back to burnout: Layoffs can be a chance to rebuild — not return.* Cash flow kills faster than failure: Design for early revenue before “scaling.”* Patience > virality: Shark Tank stories aren't the norm — steady wins.* Stickiness beats scale: Differentiation creates sustainability.* AI advantage: Use GenAI for leverage, not replacement — efficiency still needs execution.* Don't be your own bottleneck: Founders must delegate or automate to grow.Memorable lines* “If you're doing the right thing, you should feel equal parts fear and excitement.”* “Nobody knows you're here until you tell them — at least eight times.”* “Fast growth is sexy, but slow cash burn wins the long game.”* “AI can't replace human grit — it just compresses the distance between idea and action.”Guest: Sue Bortone — Founder & Executive Coach, former NYC recruitment leader helping professionals rebuild their second act.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/suenorelle/Website: https://www.nobletalent.group/Why it mattersFreedom isn't found in escaping failure — it's earned by rebuilding smarter.

Executive coach and researcher Marina Morgan (Morgan Impact) joins me to explore what few founders talk about openly—entrepreneurial trauma—and how resilience, not hustle, becomes your survival skill in an age of constant disruption.Marina works with leaders to navigate emotional recovery after layoffs, bankruptcies, and burnout—real losses that rarely get social support. Together we unpack how AI, rapid change, and relentless uncertainty are reshaping not just business models, but our nervous systems.The conversation moves from neurophysiology to leadership—why trauma isn't just mental, how adaptation speed varies person to person, and why founders need to treat resilience like revenue: measurable, trackable, and intentional.TL;DR* Entrepreneurial trauma: Failure leaves real physiological marks—acknowledge them.* AI stress loop: Fast tech shifts can outpace human adaptability.* Preventive care: Sleep, nutrition, and movement fuel better decisions.* Control what's controllable: Focus energy on what you can change.* Resilience is ROI: Strong nervous systems create stronger companies.* Professional help matters: When reactions don't fit reality, therapy restores alignment.Memorable lines* “Trauma isn't just in your head—it's in your MRI.”* “AI change is faster than our ability to adapt.”* “Your physical condition is your first strategy.”* “Resilience isn't luck—it's management.”Guest: Marina Morgan — Founder, Morgan ImpactLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marinamorgan-sf/Website: https://themorganimpact.com/Why it mattersEntrepreneurs experience real trauma—but rarely name it. As AI accelerates change, the leaders who will thrive aren't the toughest—they're the most self-aware, regulated, and resilient.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

This week on the Inside EMS podcast, hosts Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson dig into a hot-button issue lighting up EMS forums: DUI blood draws by paramedics. In Vanderburgh County, Indiana, a new program lets fire department medics perform evidentiary blood draws at the request of law enforcement — right on scene, even if the suspect isn't being transported. Supporters say it's efficient; critics say it's unethical.   The hosts share their own history with blood draws in the field and reflect on how their professional philosophies have evolved.   It's a passionate, no-holds-barred conversation about legal gray zones, moral boundaries, patient advocacy, operational burdens and the blurry line between healthcare and law enforcement.   Spoiler: There's no easy answer. But if your agency is considering such a program, this episode is required listening. Memorable quotes “My job is to do medical care, period, end of file. Quite often in doing my job, I make the point, ‘Hey, I'm not a cop, man. You can trust me.'” “There's a moral dilemma there. Are we caregivers or are we evidence collectors?” “Even if the laws permitted me to do so for one reason and one reason only, it's very hard to shift from a caregiver mindset to a defensive mindset.” Enjoying the show?

Blake Murphy and Julia Kreuz recap Max Scherzer's incredible performance last night and highlight the big hits and clutch defensive plays leading to the win. Afterwards, Sportsnet's Chris Black (30:06) dives into Andres Gimenez's home run, Daulton Varsho's bases-loaded walk and Addison Barger throwing out Josh Naylor at third base. Sportsnet's Shi Davidi (50:25) reflects on Scherzer's outing and what the removal of Anthony Santander from the roster means. Following that, Nathan Bishop (1:07:49) of ‘The Light Bat' Substack outlines the Mariners' side of the first 4 games and in what capacity Bryan Woo could factor into the rest of the series. Lastly, Dodgers broadcaster Stephen Nelson (1:18:53) recaps the starting pitching and Game 4 between Los Angeles and Milwaukee.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliate.

Originally from Uruguay and now based in Madison, WI, Matias helps cities and organizations connect with underheard voices. He reminds us that progress isn't just technological—it's social. Without infrastructure, access, and inclusion, adoption doesn't happen.EVs, he argues, are a mirror for how we build systems: Who benefits, who's left out, and who gets a say?TL;DR* Equity first: EV access must include every neighborhood, not just the affluent.* Infrastructure gap: Charging deserts echo old redlining patterns.* Ethical supply: Sustainable batteries require fair labor, not just clean tech.* Density wins: Transit, walkability, and urban design matter more than suburban car swaps.* Trust gap: People don't adopt systems they don't feel included in.Memorable lines* “We'll buy in when it's built for everyone.”* “You can't be in community while there's smoke. When the air clears, connection starts again.”* “Electric cars don't build trust—people do.”Guest: Matias Lemos Castillo — Founder, MLC ConsultingLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mlemoscastillo/Website: https://consultantmlc.com/Why it mattersEV adoption is a trust story wrapped in a tech story. Until cities design for inclusion, access, and connection, the real revolution won't be electric—it'll be community-powered.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

Did you know that premature ejaculation is the most common form of sexual dysfunction on the planet? In a similar vein, experts estimate that erectile dysfunction impacts a staggering 30-50 million men in the U.S. alone. And some studies suggest that 1 in 10 men experiences delayed ejaculation.The truth is, sexual dysfunction affects millions and millions of men, but the experience is often one of being alone. Helpless. Feeling stuck or out of control. Common thoughts:"Why can't I get hard when I want the sex? I feel like my body's betraying me.""I'm so frustrated about cumming so fast -- I want sex to last.""What's the point of even going on a date if I know it's eventually gonna end up in the bedroom?""I'm terrified that I won't satisfy her sexually, and then she'll either humiliate me, leave me, or both.""What's wrong with me?"---Here, Luke reveals the one primary and often overlooked yet vitally important commonality that exists between all sexual dysfunction. As he puts it, “Western medicine has reduced it to it being all about blood flow...” and it's about way more than that.As a doctor of Chinese medicine, Luke brings a unique and potent perspective on the topic. The plain truth is that overcoming sexual dysfunction like erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and delayed ejaculation is simply not about what you think it's about.---Work with usReady to go deeper than the podcast and take action?

Most founders think ads are the only scalable way to grow. They aren't. Aiden shows how outbound, done right, can outperform paid social—no algorithms, no ad bans, no CPM spikes. The secret isn't “more hustle.” It's smarter tech: parallel dialing that filters bad data, avoids spam flags, and connects live calls 10x faster.We trace the fall of traditional cold calls (three live connections per hundred dials), the rise of AI limits under TCPA, and why Facebook ads have quietly become a treadmill of copy rewrites, rising costs, and bot clicks. Aiden's model flips the script—less burn, more control, and measurable consistency.Even more surprising: the next generation of inside sales agents aren't in Silicon Valley—they're Egyptian lawyers earning more cold-calling than in law. Global leverage meets old-school grit.This isn't nostalgia for boiler rooms. It's data-driven, tech-enabled human connection.TL;DR* “Cold calling is dead” is a myth—it just evolved with smarter tools.* Parallel dialers reach 700–800 numbers/hour with adaptive line control.* Real cost advantage: your time + dialer fee vs $10K ad testing cycles.* AI callers are banned under TCPA—human voice still wins trust.* Best ROI: trained inside sales agents + verified mobile data = predictable leads.* Bonus: outbound also builds partnerships, not just direct sales.Memorable lines“Cold calling isn't dead—it's just been automated, filtered, and reborn.”“You can't out-ad Facebook's algorithm, but you can out-call your competition.”“Consistency beats creativity when your pipeline depends on people.”“AI can't legally sell for you—but real humans still can.”GuestAiden Sowa — Founder & CEO of Zoto Dialer, building next-gen multi-dialing systems that balance pickup rate, compliance, and speed for sales teams worldwide.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aidansowa/Website: https://www.zotodialer.co/Why this mattersScaling isn't about finding the next hack—it's about control.Cold calling 2.0 delivers what ads can't: consistent reach, predictable costs, and direct conversations that build trust faster than clicks.
