Between COVID-19, Avian Influenza, and African Swine Fever, ordinary consumers are more aware than ever of the risks of infectious diseases on animal and human health, and to society at large. Ag technology that helps farmers better prevent the spread of diseases is more relevant than ever, and that was a big part of the motivation for today's guest, Rob Hannam, CEO of Farm Health Guardian. But Farm Health Guardian was far from the only livestock biosecurity agtech company in the space, and at some point, when the team came in contact with a competitor with a complementary suite of technologies, they did something unusual. The two companies merged.Given the current state of agtech funding and global financial markets, we thought the time was right to invite Rob on to talk about how he and his team first started exploring the idea of a merger, how they thought about the decision, and how it helped them unlock new opportunities and a more complete product.For more information and resources, visit our website. The information in this post is not investment advice or a recommendation to invest.

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Florida Ruminant Nutrition Symposium. Panelists Dr. John Goeser or Rock River Laboratory, Inc.; Dr. Bob Kozlowski, PAS of Dairy NExT, LLC and Dr. Tom Overton of Cornell University introduce themselves and give an overview of their backgrounds. (0:10)Dr. Goeser begins with three different ways to define forage quality: energetic potential, particle size as an interaction factor, and anti-nutritional components. He asks Dr. Kozlowski if these are the hot topics for his consulting clients. (6:53)When evaluating the energy potential in feed, Dr. Goeser states there's nothing new as far as measuring the nutrient content of feeds, but capturing the nutrient digestion potential in fiber, starch, and fatty acids is an area where we could stand to make sizable strides. We've been studying fiber and starch digestion for more than 50 years, and they're still really hard to measure because nutrient digestion potential is not linear. In the laboratory, ruminal fiber digestion is measured at many different time points to create curves, but if we want to get a good handle on the energy potential in feeds, we need to take a total digestible nutrients approach.  (9:31)Dr. Goeser feels there are more similarities between laboratories in quantifying fiber digestion potential, but there is little agreement among labs for starch digestion. Research shows that seven hour starch digestion is dramatically affected by laboratory technique and starch digestion curves also vary widely among labs. Dr. Overton commends the lab for diligently working to understand these dynamics. (14:31)From a fiber standpoint, Dr. Kozlowsk states that uNDF has probably been one of the most significant improvements in the tools he has to work with. He gives an example of cows on a 45% forage diet in the Southeast and cows on a 60% forage diet in the Northeast, both with similar uNDF concentrations. Those two groups of cows perform very similarly in terms of volume, fat and protein. (18:43)Dr. Overton asks both guests for their take on feed hygiene. Dr. Goeser feels that there is at least 10 times more to learn about feed hygiene compared to fiber and starch digestibility. Merging veterinary diagnostics with commercial nutrition laboratory work shows promise for solving undesirable mold, yeast, mycotoxin and bacteria issues in feeds. In case studies, he states there is never just one issue at play; there are two or three that may have negative associative effects with one another. Dr. Kozlowski has been seeing varietal-dependent corn silage DON toxin levels in the last few years. Dairies are now looking at all aspects of the agronomy program in addition to all the other assessments of NDF digestibility and starch. (20:33)Dr. Goeser goes on to describe some work on large dairies where they're finding hidden nutrient variation and starch and protein flux that happens within a 1-2 week period that we aren't able to capture with our current sampling techniques. For dairies feeding 2,000-15,000 cows, a diet formulation is on point today, but within that 1-2 week period at the volume of feed they're going through, the diet is now out of spec. However, it's not so out of line that the cows are giving feedback in terms of components or deviation in production or intake. (30:08)On the cow side, new technologies like SCR are allowing insights into rumination dynamics, which can be applied to feed formulation. Some silage choppers now have NIR units measuring silage quality during harvest. The panelists discuss what other technologies might be on the horizon, including on-farm NIR units on front-end loaders or mixer trucks. Dr. Goeser mentions some of the challenges with these technologies, including feed moisture levels interfering with equipment and lack of trust in technologies.

Start Your Transformation Now  In part two of this deeply personal series, Jim Fortin continues to explore the mystery and wisdom of Don Xavier, the shaman and spiritual teacher who has profoundly shaped Jim's life and work. After receiving overwhelming feedback from part one, Jim returns with more extraordinary stories—many never shared before—offering listeners a rare glimpse into the spiritual teachings, experiences, and insights he's gained over decades of walking this transformational path. This episode is packed with powerful anecdotes—from ceremonies under the stars in sacred lands to dreamtime revelations that defy logic. Jim dives deeper into what it means to walk the path of awareness, the dangers of over-identifying with the analytical mind, and the spiritual significance behind everyday and extraordinary events. He also shares text messages from Don Xavier that point to the core of what true shamanism is: merging with the “All,” or Anima Mundi. If you're ready to open your heart, quiet your mind, and awaken to a reality beyond 3D logic, this is an episode you won't want to miss. What You'll Discover in This Episode  The misunderstood path of shamanism (00:00) – Jim reintroduces Don Xavier and sets the record straight about who he really is—and isn't.  Belief, skepticism, and “cult” misconceptions (02:50) – Why working with Don Xavier is the opposite of dogma and belief-based systems.  Transformation through experience, not belief (06:13) – Jim shares how growth happens when you let go of needing to “know” and embrace being.  The power of observation over intellect (09:09) – Discover why true awareness begins when you stop thinking and start seeing.  Merging with the All: Anima Mundi (12:06) – Don Xavier's profound message on connecting with nature, energy, and all living beings.  Miracles in the mundane (15:01) – From disappearing winds to perfect recoveries, Jim recalls unexplainable events during sacred ceremonies.  Freeing yourself from the analytical mind (17:57) – How trying to figure everything out actually weighs you down and limits your evolution.  Dreams, animals, and messages from beyond (20:51) – Stories that challenge logic but expand your perception of reality and karma.  The future of humanity and the threat of AI (24:11) – Don Xavier's sobering warning about how technology may again lead to humanity's collapse.  A call to awaken (36:12) – Jim's closing message on the illusion of certainty and the importance of living with curiosity, awareness, and heart. Listen, apply, and enjoy!    Transformational Takeaway  There's more to life than meets the eye—and it's not what you think. The more we try to figure everything out, the more we distance ourselves from true wisdom. Growth begins when we quiet the analytical mind and return to the stillness of observation, connection, and trust in the unknown. As Don Xavier teaches, your mind is not your brain—real transformation starts when you stop thinking and start seeing.

I talk with writer, author, and esoteric health practitioner ARE THORESEN.The language of inevitability is upon us, and it is a cruel language, one that allows no discussion of freedom or our ability to direct things. The future - a terrible future - is filled with AI, the effects of climate crisis, fascisms, and wars. And our present - a terrible present - is only going to get worse.In other words, we're given a unified picture of where we're going and what's happening and how to feel about all of it.Of course, the language of inevitability can only show us relatively little. A narrow look at presumed (or manipulated) outcomes.The future is as wide open as ever.Difference and mutability is closer to the truth: whatever happens will happen differently, to different places, and to each and every one of us.Why? Because material laws and spiritual laws flourish differently in each person's life. We all have our own levels and areas of understanding, aptitude, capacity, and education. We all express differing variations on one theme, but that theme is the cosmos.This is the starting point for my conversation with occultist, veterinarian, and author, ARE THORSEN. Are has been on the show many times, most recently on AEWCH 243, when we talked about illness, health, and the end of materialism. Also on AEWCH 205 on Ragnarok, and AEWCH 116 on demonology & nothingness. His most recent books, The Four Doors and Fading and Merging are available via Amazon. Other recent books (which you can order via independent bookstore through the links here) include Meeting Michael: Further Communications from Spirit Worlds and Travels on the Northern Path of Initiation: Vidar and Baldur, the Three Elemental Realms and the Inner and Outer Etheric Worlds.On this episode, we discuss the technique of connecting with the spiritual world, and more specifically why meditation isn't enough... we need to walk into the spiritual world. And how?

Stephen Dooley is Founder of Roamr, a corporate travel accommodation platform built for distributed teams. Merging insights from trust dynamics and the sharing economy, Stephen explains how a personal pain point led to an innovative travel solution rethinking cost structures and workplace needs. He shares how listening to customer feedback evolved the initial concept into a fresh approach to business travel that—being empathetic and practical—supports flexibility, connection, and culture while delivering measurable impact for businesses and employees alike.     TAKEAWAYS [01:22] Stephen studies commerce aligning early interests in business and entrepreneurship. [01:45] A year abroad gives Stephen an exciting experience and global perspective. [03:11] The year studying in the US sparks Stephen's ambition and sharpens his interpersonal skills. [03:47] Graduate research initially focuses on financial technology and wealth management. [05:15] Stephen is interested in tech-related consumer psychology dynamics and adoption drivers. [06:25] The sharing economy reverses historical fundamental trust patterns and behaviors. [07:11] Younger consumers now influence their parents' tech-based adoption decisions. [08:34] Stephen takes a new role then the pandemic hits, requiring rapid learning. [09:28] A light bulb moment about new realities for travel, lifestyle and career compatibility. [09:47] A great workation opportunity is dashed by unaffordable accommodation. [10:42] Identifying remote work necessities reveal need for better infrastructure. [11:17] Location flexibility is widespread, but how to take advantage of new opportunities. [12:21] Societal tailwinds are behind Working From Anywhere and distributed work. [12:55] Roamr launches with an employee-focused offering home swaps for workations. [13:49] During customer discovery, many employers ask to apply the model to corporate travel. [14:20] Employees get alternatives to hotels, financially benefit, and firms save money. [14:52] Now business travel is more relationship-focused, so culture and collaboration benefits can outweigh reduced costs. [16:31] Travel expenses can be significant so more than 20% in savings is valuable. [17:09] Improved culture, engagement, and retention offer meaningful additional benefits. [19:21] More younger workers understand the Roamr concept and have much interest to connect and network. [20:09] Hosting income also helps employees towards meaningful financial goals. [21:04] Roamr aligns CFO cost savings priorities and CPO employee experience goals. [22:40] Global platform partners expand reach to over 100 countries. [24:31] Top talent understand their worth and if not offered flexibility will work elsewhere. [25:50] Finding the option(s) that work for each person—where is the middle ground? [28:08] Research revealed how taxi rides fostered long-term interactions. [28:46] Engineering connections by mapping users to have facilitated serendipity. [29:32] Adding personal networks to expand reach, connectivity, and flexible opportunities. [31:50] Employees can create and plan local events during work trips. [32:30] Visibility avoids missed connections among nearby remote coworkers. [33:15] Highlighting common interests to encourage sharing experiences while traveling. [34:11] In-person sales increase in relevance as AI outreach becomes oversaturated. [36:02] Commoditized business travel offers few incentives for employees to reduce costs. [37:15] Incentivizing smart booking combined with uplifts for culture and engagement. [37:47] Buffers in travel planning processes reveal hidden budget inefficiencies. [38:55] Roamr is a win-win choice – an optional, flexible alternative to hotels. [39:18] IMMEDIATE ACTION TIP – How can you think differently about business travel processes to avoid or reduce bloated costs?       RESOURCES   Stephen Dooley on LinkedIn Roamr's website     QUOTES   “What if we could make work from anywhere, work from everywhere?”​  “It's a platform that helps companies save 30% on their corporate travel accommodation and we do that by paying employees instead of hotels.”​  “We believe that's a way better way to build culture rather than a kind of team building awkward session in the middle of the office.”​ “So we're not just saying we want to save money. We actually want to make the experience better, more intentional, more engaging.”​ “How do we find a way to give some flexibility, but also bring teams together and make it work?”​ “Everybody can send a million emails now. How are we going to stand out? How we're going to build those relationships?”​

In today's episode, host Pete Moore is joined by dynamic entrepreneur, Kevin Wathey. Kevin shares his journey from a deeply personal tragedy with his Mom, to becoming a multi-faceted entrepreneur, spearheading innovative projects across the globe. The discussion dives into two latest (and very complementary) ventures, including a new wellness resort set in Costa Rica, tailored for high-performing individuals seeking holistic health transformations.  Kevin also touches on Baseline, his health tech platform designed to revolutionize personal health management by offering customized experiences based on unique biological data. With insights on personal motivation, the importance of wellness, and his ambitious plans for future locations in Italy and South Africa, this episode is a must-listen for those interested in the fusion of hospitality, technology, and health. On building out Velara, Kevin mentions, "The acquisition in Costa Rica was a preexisting boutique hotel. It was 24 rooms, two restaurants, a spa, and five acres of beachfront, on the Pacific Coast in the in the Nicoya Blue Zone. The intention was never to keep it as is, but to expand it. Right before we closed on it, the previous owner came to me and said, 'Hey. We have two extra plots of land adjacent. Would you like those as well?" Key themes discussed Overcoming Limits Through Determination Opens Yoga Studio at 24 Beachfront Hotel Expansion Project Pura Vida: A Subtractive Approach Baseline: Life Quality Scoring Platform Redefining Success and Profitability Embrace Workout Recovery Now A few key takeaways:  1. Tragic Inspiration: Kevin shared a deeply personal story about how his mother's battle and subsequent passing from pancreatic cancer inspired him to pursue a "life without limitations." This taught him that whatever we focus on, we have the potential to accomplish. 2. Career Path: Kevin's journey from playing semi-pro hockey to getting into acting, then discovering yoga in Bali, and eventually moving into the hospitality industry, showcases his wide variety of experiences. These varied paths have shaped his entrepreneurial ventures today. 3. Building in Costa Rica: Kevin discussed acquiring and expanding a pre-existing boutique hotel in Costa Rica into a larger resort with a focus on health and wellness tailored to guests through testing prior to their stay. This venture targets high-performing individuals seeking more holistic health experiences. 4. Baseline Health Tech Platform: Complementing the resort, Kevin is also developing Baseline, a health tech platform that provides personalized health scores based on lifestyle and behavioral interventions. It's designed to track a client's health progress over time and is aimed at reducing dependence on pharmaceuticals. 5. Entrepreneurial Vision: Kevin is balancing two major projects simultaneously, driven by an overarching vision of holistic wellness and lifestyle improvement. He sees both as complementary, each aiding the success of the other.

Today, we're joined by Julie Kallini, PhD student at Stanford University to discuss her recent papers, “MrT5: Dynamic Token Merging for Efficient Byte-level Language Models” and “Mission: Impossible Language Models.” For the MrT5 paper, we explore the importance and failings of tokenization in large language models—including inefficient compression rates for under-resourced languages—and dig into byte-level modeling as an alternative. We discuss the architecture of MrT5, its ability to learn language-specific compression rates, its performance on multilingual benchmarks and character-level manipulation tasks, and its performance and efficiency. For the “Mission: Impossible Language Models” paper, we review the core idea behind the research, the definition and creation of impossible languages, the creation of impossible language training datasets, and explore the bias of language model architectures towards natural language.

Enterprise Connect Podcast | Technology Reseller News “AI isn't here to replace humans — it's here to make customer service smarter, faster, and more efficient.” – Jill Blankenship, CEO, Frontline Group In this special Enterprise Connect 2025 episode, Technology Reseller News publisher Doug Green sat down with Frontline Group CEO Jill Blankenship and CRO Matt Bramson to explore the company's dual mission: delivering cutting-edge customer experience technology while keeping the human touch front and center. Frontline's Edge: A Foot in Both Worlds Frontline isn't just advising businesses on CCaaS — they're living it daily through their own 350-seat contact center. This real-world expertise enables them to offer something unique: deployment strategies informed by frontline operations. That hybrid approach — combining software like NICE CXone and Zoom with agent services and consultative support — is what sets them apart. AI That Supports Agents — Not Replaces Them Rather than jumping on the “AI-first” bandwagon, Frontline brings a pragmatic view. AI is already embedded in their analytics, quality management, and workforce tools. Their focus? Using AI to empower agents, reduce repetitive calls, and improve both CSAT and agent retention. “We envision a future with AI-driven service,” said Bramson, “but customers still need human empathy.” Resilient, Responsive, Ready When a global company with nearly 10,000 agents lost its internal CX team overnight, Frontline stepped in — not in months, but in days. They deployed a full support team, onboarded agents, and stabilized operations fast. That kind of agility is made possible by deep platform expertise and decades of team experience. Built for SMB & Mid-Market Success Unlike traditional CCaaS vendors focused on large enterprises, Frontline tailors solutions for SMBs and mid-market firms in regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and government. Whether it's compliance, rapid onboarding, or integrating omnichannel AI solutions, Frontline helps these clients scale without sacrificing quality. Looking Ahead: Human-Centered AI Blankenship founded the company to solve real-world customer service challenges. Now, she's leading it into a future where AI and human agents work in tandem. With a 98% client retention rate and a reputation for fast, flexible implementations, Frontline is poised to help more businesses navigate CX transformation in the AI age.

In 1891 J. Murakami travelled from Japan, via San Francisco, to Vancouver Island and began working in and around Victoria. His occupation: creating permanent images on the skin of paying clients. From this early example of tattooing as work, in Needle Work: A History of Commercial Tattooing in Canada (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2024) Dr. Jamie Jelinski takes us from coast to coast with detours to the United States, England, and Japan as he traces the evolution of commercial tattooing in Canada over more than one hundred years. Needle Work offers insight into how tattoo artists navigated regulation, the types of spaces they worked in, and the dynamic relationship between the images they tattooed on customers and other forms of visual culture and artistic enterprise. Merging biographical narratives with an examination of tattooing's place within wider society, Dr. Jelinski reveals how these commercial image makers bridged conventional gaps between cultural production and practical, for-profit work, thereby establishing tattooing as a legitimate career. Richly illustrated and drawing on archives, print media, and objects held in institutions and private collections across Canada and beyond, Needle Work provides a timely understanding of a vocation that is now familiar but whose intricate history has rarely been considered. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

David Gandini, CEO of SOBRsafe, discusses innovative alcohol detection technology designed for workplace safety and behavioral health. The company offers two primary devices: the SOBRCheck, a stationary device that uses biometric identification to detect alcohol presence through skin vapor, and the SOBRSure, a wearable band that pairs with a smartphone to monitor alcohol levels discreetly. These devices aim to enhance safety in environments like oil and gas facilities while also supporting individuals with alcohol use disorders by providing real-time data to clinicians.The SOBRCheck device allows employees to check in and out throughout the day, ensuring they are alcohol-free before entering the workplace. The data collected is de-identified, meaning it does not store personal information, thus addressing privacy concerns. The SoberSure band serves a different purpose, focusing on continuous monitoring for individuals in behavioral health settings, allowing clinicians to track their patients' alcohol consumption discreetly and effectively.Gandini emphasizes the importance of leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve the accuracy of alcohol detection. By normalizing individual baselines based on physiological and environmental factors, the technology aims to reduce false positives, particularly in challenging environments like oil fields where ethanol emissions may interfere with readings. This advancement is still in its early stages, but it represents a significant step toward more reliable monitoring solutions.Looking ahead, Gandini highlights the potential for integrating this technology with insurance companies to offer discounts for verified sobriety and exploring in-vehicle applications for alcohol detection. The company is also expanding its reach internationally, with ongoing efforts in Australia and New Zealand. Overall, SOBRsafe is positioned to make a substantial impact on workplace safety and behavioral health management through its innovative approach to alcohol detection.

As Eric and Michelle are both intrigued by the notion of merging science and spirituality, they were curious about a new technology that was circulating at the recent Conscious Life Expo in Los Angeles.The term "bio-photon" has been around for a while, and is sometimes used to describe the phenomenon of invisible light being produced and used as a method of communication and energy transferrance in virtually every cell of the body.In this episode, Gary Kiss shared that he was a former consultant in the stem cell industry and claims that he developed a unique technology he says can help stimulate and energize a person's clogged pathways of energy flow.Ever the skeptic, Eric asks many questions about how this technology  works.  Whether or not you believe every claim made, we think you'll be intrigued by the conversation. Mr. Kiss's web-site: Eluumis.com
