John welcomes the host of Pablo Torre Finds Out back to the show to discuss a pair of freak-outs at the intersection of sports, politics, and commerce: the Republican outrage over Bad Bunny being chosen to headline next year's Super Bowl halftime show, and the NBA's panic over the unfolding scandal, exposed by Pablo's exclusive reporting, involving billionaire LA Clippers owner Steve Ballmer and the team's superstar forward, Kawhi Leonard. Pablo explains why the NFL's increasing financial and cultural dominance make it impervious to partisan controversies; what drove Ballmer to engineer an egregious scheme to circumvent the NBA salary cap; and why the former Microsoft CEO's status as the league's richest owner (indeed, the richest in all of sports) presents a vexing quandary for Commissioner Adam Silver and the NBA's investigation of Ballmergate.

From Disney to Microsoft, via Vodafone and Virgin Media, Cindy Rose has been a top executive at some of the world's best known companies. Born and raised in the US, one of her early passions was figure skating – a sport she confessed left her covered in bumps and bruises. After qualifying as a lawyer, she later switched to corporate roles, relocating to Europe then London. Her time at Disney included a shift dressed as Mickey Mouse's loyal hound, Pluto, welcoming guests to the Californian theme park. Now she's set to become the new CEO of the troubled FTSE ad giant, WPP – where her experience in tech and AI look set to be an asset. Stephen Smith talks to friends and colleagues to find out how Cindy Rose made it from law to leadership – and the challenges she faces as head of one of the world's biggest advertising groups.

In 1979, the Los Angeles Lakers were purchased for just $67 million. Today, they're reportedly worth $10 billion. That's an incredible return—but how does it compare to a simple investment in the S&P 500 over the same period? We dig into the numbers and break down what makes public equities one of the most unbeatable long-term investments. Also in this episode: - What really drives massive returns over decades. - Why Steve Ballmer—yes, the former Microsoft CEO—is being called one of the greatest investors of all time. - The surprisingly simple principle behind his investing success (and how you can apply it). Here's to wise investing, Brett Pattison, Brian Hunsaker, and Spencer Nelson

We sit down with Steve Ballmer, the legendary former Microsoft CEO and owner of the LA Clippers, for an epic conversation covering his 34 years at Microsoft. Steve listened to our Microsoft episodes and had some thoughts to share — and boy, did he deliver. Steve takes us point-by-point through the original IBM DOS deal that started everything, how he built Microsoft's enterprise business from scratch, and offers his candid reflections on missing mobile and search. We also cover the story behind “developers, developers, developers”, the complexities of his relationship with Bill Gates (including a year where they didn't speak), and why he ultimately decided to step down as CEO. Plus, we learn why Steve has held onto his Microsoft stock through it all — giving him arguably the best investment track record in the world over the last 10 years with his net worth growing from $20B to $130B since leaving. And of course, we couldn't resist also talking about his other passion: the Clippers and Intuit Dome. Hit play and get ready to experience the patented Steve Ballmer energy and fun on full display!Sponsors:Many thanks to our fantastic Summer ‘25 Season partners:J.P.

I often sit down with Satya Nadella, my boss, and Microsoft's third CEO—but rarely with microphones. In the final segment of our Microsoft CEO trilogy, we talk about his journey from his early days playing cricket to leading Microsoft, the link between poetry and programming, and how the company is leading the next wave of technological transformation—redefining how we build and interact with technology.Click here for the episode transcript

Microsoft's CEO acknowledged the significant role of AI in code generation, with estimates suggesting it writes a notable percentage of the company's code. Meta made its powerful Llama 3 language models broadly accessible via APIs and integrated them into its new AI assistant, positioning it to compete with established players. However, the sources also highlight ethical challenges, detailing an unauthorized AI experiment on Reddit users that raised serious concerns about consent and manipulation, leading to legal action and internal investigations. Furthermore, the text mentions OpenAI rolling back a GPT-4o update due to user complaints about its personality and introduces smaller, more efficient models like GPT-4o mini. Finally, AI's application in other fields is noted with AI analysis uncovering potential genetic links to Alzheimer's and a strengthened partnership between Waymo and Toyota for autonomous vehicles.

In this episode of the Positive Leadership Podcast, I sit down with Rana el Kaliouby, AI scientist, entrepreneur, investor and thought leader in the field of artificial emotional intelligence. From growing up in Cairo to studying at MIT and co-founding Affectiva, Rana has spent her career bridging the gap between human emotions and technology. Today, as Deputy CEO at Smart Eye and founder of the ethical AI venture fund Blue Tulip, she continues to champion a more empathetic, inclusive, and human-centered approach to innovation. Together, they explore: Why emotional intelligence matters more than ever in today's AI-driven world How leaders can foster trust, diversity, and belonging through empathy What it means to be a humanist in a digital age Rana's story is one of bold vision, resilience, and a deep belief in technology as a force for good. 

On this episode of the GeekWire Podcast, we talk with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella about the company's 50th anniversary, and where it's headed from here. Plus, highlights from Microsoft’s 50th anniversary event in Redmond, which featured a rare joint appearance by Nadella with former leaders Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer. The day also reflected Microsoft's role in an increasingly complex global landscape, with a CNBC interview focusing in part on the impact of tariffs on the company and the global economy, and a protest outside the event condemning the use of the company’s technologies to support Israel in the ongoing war in Gaza.

This episode of the Positive Leadership Podcast is truly special—for two reasons. First, Microsoft is celebrating its 50th anniversary, marking five decades of innovation, transformation, and leadership in the tech industry. Second, on a personal level, this milestone resonates deeply with me.

If you had some free time and a Windows PC in the 1990s, your mouse probably crawled its way to Minesweeper, an exciting watch-where-you-click puzzle game with a ticking clock and a ton of “just one more game” replayability. Originally sold as part of a “big box” bundle of simple games, Minesweeper became a cornerstone of the Windows experience when it was pre-installed with every copy of Windows 3.1 and decades of subsequent OS updates. Alongside fellow Windows gaming staple Solitaire, Minesweeper wound up on more devices than nearly any other video game in history. Sweeping through a minefield of explosive storylines, Journalist Kyle Orland reveals how Minesweeper caused an identity crisis within Microsoft, ensnared a certain Microsoft CEO with its addictive gameplay, dismayed panicky pundits, micromanagers, and legislators around the world, inspired a passionate competitive community that discovered how to break the game, and predicted the rise of casual gaming by nearly two decades. Rudolf Thomas Inderst (*1978) enjoys video games since 1985. He received a master's degree in political science, American cultural studies as well as contemporary and recent history from Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich and holds two PhDs in game studies (LMU & University of Passau). Currently, he's teaching as a professor for game design at the IU International University for Applied Science, has submitted his third dissertation at the University of Vechta, holds the position as lead editor at the online journal Titel kulturmagazin for the game section, hosts the German local radio show Replay Value and is editor of the weekly game research newsletter DiGRA D-A-CH Game Studies Watchlist.
