The Barrack, 1572–1914: Chapters in the History of Emergency Architecture (Park Books, 2024) tells the little-known history of a building type that many people used to register as an alien interloper in conventionally built-up areas. The barrack is a mostly lightweight construction, a hybrid between shack, tent, and traditional building. It is a highly efficient structure that sometimes also proves to be extremely durable. Easy to erect and to take down, it is—after the introduction of railways and later motor vehicles in the late 19th and early 20th centuries—also easy to transplant from one location to another. Originating as a standardized accommodation in the late 16th century, the barrack became a mass-produced utility of military and civilian mobilization in the 19th century, providing immediate shelter for soldiers as well as for displaced persons, disaster victims, or prisoners. The barrack played a decisive role in shaping the political space of modernity. This interview was conducted by Matthew Wells, Senior Lecturer in Architectural Studies at the University of Manchester. His research explores nineteenth-century architecture, focusing on artistic techniques, technology, and political economy.

Official modelling shows up to 150 people a week could be infected by measles if an outbreak takes hold. Health New Zealand says it can cope with 100 cases a week, but even that would stretch services. The Modelling by PHF Science - formerly ESR - estimated the most likely scenario would see cases peaking at around 100 a week, the same as in 2019. public health expert Dr Oz Mansoor.

We kick off this episode with Amy and Nyree's trip down memory lane, all the way back to hypnobirthing class and WhatsApp business masterminds. That instant “skip the small talk and go straight to heavy breathing” connection is the foundation for a raw, open conversation on why the food industry's old rules aren't working — especially for working parents.Nyree opens up about her slow-burn realisation that work rules—full-time as default, “competitive” salary secrecy, presenteeism—aren't natural laws. In fact, many were dreamed up by power holders decades ago and still weigh us down like an invisible rucksack. She talks about Jack and Grace's bold approach: making part-time the standard, pushing radical flexibility, and refusing to pretend everyone fits the mould. But breaking the rules isn't just about rebellion—it's about rewriting them for real people, not just the status quo.The conversation gets honest about why so many of us—especially women and parents—feel like we're failing when the system is stacked against us. Amy and Nyree discuss how lockdown forced change, and why so many food businesses are sliding right back to the old inflexible ways. They cover the traps of “unlimited holiday” policies and the bittersweet reality that sometimes you have to live (not just write) new rules. Nyree's campaign for salary transparency, #SayThePay, gets a spotlight, and listeners are challenged to notice absurd workplace rules, shift what they can, and model bold boundaries for others—because small changes can make a big difference.Whether you run a team, work on a factory floor, or you're just exhausted by the pressure to “fit in,” this episode serves up real talk and practical encouragement.  Timestamps 00:00:11 Amy welcomes listeners and introduces Nyree.00:02:22 Focus on breaking rules at work and Nyree's passion for rewriting the playbook for working parents.00:03:27 Discussion on flipping job norms—part-time as default, questioning 37.5-hour rule, and how invisible workplace “microplastics” shape us.00:06:14 Nyree's personal shift: realising it wasn't her failing, but systemic work rules, and discusses the power of talking to others.00:07:13 Lockdown as a leveller—closing gaps in flexible working and shifting professionalism.00:08:10 Jack and Grace's remote-first team, co-working spaces, and individualised flexibility.00:09:10 When rule-breaking throws people—why some crave rules and how good rules can help, but “old-school” rules need challenging.00:09:52 Experiments with unlimited holiday—why it didn't work, and the importance of enforcing breaks.00:11:18 Cultural challenges of walking the talk—Nyree's struggle with guilt even in her own rule-breaking business.00:14:40 Coaching insights: dropping the “baggage rucksack” and letting go of workplace conditioning.00:16:21 Salary transparency campaign: #SayThePay—why “competitive salary” is bonkers, and how hiding pay increases inequality.00:19:01 Takeaways for listeners: It's not you, it's the system. Small acts can challenge workplace norms; start where you are.00:21:52 Modelling boundaries at work, being visible about parenting needs, and the radical power of honesty.00:23:54 Perspective on generational shifts—Gen Z, talent strategy, and why food retail and manufacturing must change to attract the best.00:24:15 Example from the police—structural change is possible everywhere, if there's leadership will.00:25:33 Plug for Jack and Grace—purpose-driven comms for organisations doing good, recent British Tomato Fortnight campaign.00:26:41 Reflection on walking the talk and the ongoing work of living your company values. Links and Resources:Website Link: https://fearlessfoodies.co.ukFB Link: https://www.facebook.com/thefearlessfoodiepodLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thefearlessfoodiepod“Say the pay” video: https://www.jackandgrace.co.uk/saythepay/You can follow us here on Instagram: @thefearlessfoodiepodFind Amy on Instagram or LinkedIn for further support with industry coaching and facilitation.Microsearch Laboratories sponsors the Fearless Foodie Podcast https://micro-search.co.uk/

In this special episode of the podcast, originally hosted by Indico Data's Unstructured Unlocked, Matthew Grant, CEO of InsTech, joins Tom Wilde and Michelle Gouveia to discuss how insurers are harnessing third-party data and AI to make more informed, efficient underwriting decisions. With over 25 years in catastrophe modelling and analytics, Matthew shares his view on where the real innovation is happening and where insurers are still facing friction. From the rising value of external data sources to the operational impact of generative AI, the conversation is packed with insights that go beyond the buzzwords. InsTech is sharing this episode to highlight the practical challenges and opportunities facing carriers and reinsurers as they modernise their approach to risk. What you'll learn Why many insurers still struggle to access the most basic risk data What third-party data needs to prove before it's trusted in underwriting How AI is changing both the speed and depth of catastrophe modelling When it makes sense for carriers to build proprietary models—and when it doesn't What reinsurers have taught the market about effective model use The quiet power of improving underwriting efficiency, not just accuracy How better data and analytics can help insurers write more risk with more confidence If you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Matthew Grant on LinkedIn.

» Produced by Hack You Media: pioneering a new category of content at the intersection of health performance, entrepreneurship & cognitive optimisation.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hackyoumedia/Website: https://hackyou.media/In this episode, the British supermodel David Gandy joins the show. The man who defined an era of male modelling reveals why he walked away from guaranteed money to build something bigger. After watching female models launch empires while male models remained stuck as "clothes hangers," he made a calculated bet: turn down the certain payday, take back ownership of his image, and build a business that would outlast his modelling career.Now, at the top of his game, he runs his own brand "Wellwear" which has seen enormous success over the last few years, and it's only on the rise. David dives into his take on why AI will devastate the modelling industry and the coffee brand strategy that's generating more long-term value than any campaign ever could.00:00 Introduction01:30 Getting scouted late and breaking into male modelling03:52 Early modelling stigma and the shift toward aspiration07:44 Struggles with sample sizes and building a unique fit11:36 Gym injuries, competitive edge, and learning to scale back15:28 Training, longevity, and dedication through every era19:20 Campaign prep, appearance tricks, and dietary tweaks23:12 Behind launching a clothing line and early business lessons27:04 Why fashion's a brutal industry for newcomers30:56 Collaborating without conflict and owning your brand image34:48 Exiting M&S, brand evolution, and staying relevant38:40 Modelling's unpredictability and carving your own path42:32 AI models, declining rates, and the future of modelling46:24 Debunking modelling myths and why few succeed50:16 Moments of doubt and surviving early rejection57:59 Embracing discomfort, training consistency, and hard truths01:01:51 Crafting a personal brand by staying selective01:05:43 Designing legacy beyond his own image01:09:35 Mentorship, new faces, and passing the torch01:13:27 Aging, grey hairs, and why 30s are underrated01:17:19 Escaping social media and the battle for attention» Escape the 9-5 & build your dream life - https://www.digitalplaybook.net/» Transform your physique - https://www.thrstapp.com/» My clothing brand, THRST - https://thrstofficial.com» Custom Bioniq supplements: https://www.bioniq.com/mikethurston• 40% off your first month of Bioniq GO• 20% off your first month of Bioniq PRO» Join our newsletter for actionable insights from every episode: https://thrst-letter.beehiiv.com/» Join @WHOOP and get your first month for free - join.whoop.com/FirstThingsThrst» Follow David«Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidgandy_official/?hl=enWebsite: https://www.davidgandywellwear.com/

I sesongens andre episode av Spøkelser etter avdøde størrelser har Niclas Larson besøk av en ny gjest. Det er Stig Eriksen som gjør debut i podkasten. Stig og Niclas er kolleger på Institutt for matematiske fag på UiA, og Stig har lang erfaring av å jobbe som lærer både i skolen og i lærerutdanningen. I den semistrukturerte samtalen så forteller Stig om sine erfaringer av å jobbe med modellering. Et eksempel på en oppgave som blir drøftet er hvor mye man puster på en natt. Og hva er det egentlig som er viktig når man jobber med modellering i skolen? Er det resultatet, dvs. at svaret er riktig, eller er det prosessen og veien til svaret?

Do you ever catch yourself reaching for your phone when you don't really need or want to, and wonder what that shows your kids? In this episode, Screenagers creator Dr. Delaney Ruston talks with two moms who decide it's time to make a change. They talk about the habits they want to shift and take on the One Small Change Challenge using a model called DARTS: Doable, Arrange for success, Reasons, Treats, and Support. Follow along as Delaney walks Tory and Hillary through setting their own goals, and try using this model to set yours too. We'd love to hear if you do, so send a note to delaney@screenagersmovie.com.

In this episode we answer emails from Ron, Mark, Rick and Keith.  We revel in your generosity and discuss the mechanics of monthly withdrawals and how rebalancing smooths that over, modelling portfolio with money going in and money going out, and a follow up on portfolios employing futures contracts as leverage.  And gooooold!  And THEN we our go through our weekly portfolio reviews of the eight sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.Additional Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page:  Donate - Father McKenna CenterOur South Africa Trip Video Playlist:  Penguins in Cape TownRemembering Gov.

We walk through what a powerful gold run means for real-world withdrawals, safe withdrawal rates, and the way diversified portfolios shoulder risk when the regime shifts. From the Golden Butterfly and Golden Ratio to return-stacked experiments, we review performance, drawdowns, and why structural diversification—equities, Treasuries, gold, real assets, and managed futures—often beats clever timing when you're spending from your nest egg.We also open the donor mailbag with sharp questions from listeners practicing monthly withdrawals ahead of retirement. Should you fund withdrawals from accumulated cash or trim recent winners? How much does trade timing matter at month-end? We share simple rules that reduce friction: let dividends build a cash buffer, sell strength back to targets, and rely on periodic rebalancing to correct small timing errors. For those using volatile tools like UPRO, TMF, or crypto, we explain why defined targets and a steady cadence matter more than chasing the “perfect” price.Futures curious? We touch on financing costs, collateral choices, and the risk realities of leverage, including why even elegant models must respect max drawdown. Along the way, we challenge the habit of erasing the 1970s from gold analysis and highlight how data-driven diversification can protect retirees from sequence risk. Whether you're simulating withdrawals or already living on your portfolio, you'll get practical tactics and a clearer lens for portfolio design.If this resonates, follow the show, leave a review, and share it with someone planning their retirement drawdown.

What are we still missing in catastrophe modelling and how can we close the gap? As part of InsTech's The Future of Catastrophe Risk: Where Science Meets Reality event, this expert panel explored the limitations of current catastrophe models and how the insurance industry can evolve its approach to risk. Hosted by Ludovico Nicotina (Inigo), with insights from Sandra Hansen (Guy Carpenter) and Paul Wilson (Twelve Securis), the discussion focused on where models fall short, how emerging risks are challenging traditional assumptions and what it will take to build more resilient, climate-aware modelling frameworks. In this conversation, the panel explores: What current models overlook — from unmodelled sub-perils to social and infrastructure vulnerabilities How inter-annual clustering and systemic effects drive outsized losses The tension between increasing model flexibility and responsible use of adaptation features Whether vendors are providing enough transparency to support custom views of risk How the industry can better incorporate future climate states into today's modelling tools The case for cross-sector collaboration and more open sharing of internal risk perspectives If you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Matthew Grant on LinkedIn.

The atmosphere of the emergency department can be a hard thing to put into words, with intense emotions washing over patients and staff alike. This month we feature a poem, powerfully illustrating the drama and stress inside the ED bubble. One of the recurring sources of uncertainty for patients is the question, “How long until I'm seen, doc?”, and there's a paper following up on that issue with a personalised approach. A framework that has been employed by NHS England, aimed at dealing with the problem, is Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC). The next paper finds there is a limited evidence on the impact of SDECs, as well as confusion around their definition. Another paper on the subject of patient flow shows that while digital solutions are promising, you can't replace a streaming nurse for critical decisions. To finish the episode is a 10-year retrospective review on the use of blood in paediatric trauma, drawing on the data of the Trauma Audit Research Network. Read the highlights: October 2025 primary survey Whose turn is it?

Lucinda is joined by allyship expert Julie Kratz, who discusses her research on why people with power often disengage from conversations about diversity and inclusion, feeling either "threatened" or "irrelevant."  Together they explore her latest book, which outlines a "use fear as fuel" strategy and introduces a framework for building allyship programs. Julie stresses that everyone has power and a social responsibility to champion inclusion, arguing that strong allyship is less about transactional "doing" and more about building meaningful relationships that lead to personal fulfilment, better team dynamics, and positive organisational change. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many people in positions of power, particularly white men, do not believe conversations about diversity and inclusion are meant to include them, often fuelled by fears of status loss, irrelevance, or the belief that allyship offers "all risk, no reward." Everyone has power, and the first step to becoming an effective ally is to build a strong "allyship why" rooted in the understanding that humans are a social species whose survival and happiness depend on collaboration and helping one another. Effective allyship involves moving beyond individual action to creating systemic change, which includes building highly customised allyship programs that focus on key behaviours like modeling and storytelling to make inclusive practices contagious. Organisations need to focus on building inclusive policies (e.g., caregiving leave, pay equity) and objective hiring and promotion processes to minimise bias, as people are often judged on potential (if they resemble current leadership) or actual performance (if they are different). BEST MOMENTS "The first step that I offer is really building your allyship why. Like why do you want to be helpful to other people?" "Power's not bad, it's what you do with it that matters. And so don't you want to be on the good side of history, like don't you want to be the one that's standing up to social issues, even if it doesn't impact you?"

The Architecture of the Wire explores the development of telecommunications infrastructure and its impact on the architectural and urban culture of the modern age—from poles, wires, and cables, to “micro-architectures,” such as the théâtrophone and the telephone booth. Starting with the intrepid worldwide infrastructures of the late nineteenth century, Carlotta Darò proposes a new history that explores the multiple links and crossroads of such technical “things” with architecture and art.Based on extensive research of North American company archives, and French institutional ones, and drawing on secondary literature in art and architectural history, media studies, and the history of technology, Darò examines the aesthetic implications of material objects that have forever changed our urban, rural, and domestic environments. This interview was conducted by Matthew Wells, Senior Lecturer in Architectural Studies at the University of Manchester. His research explores architecture in the long nineteenth century, focusing on artistic techniques, technology, and political economy.

In this episode, Matthew Grant sits down with Matthew Eagle, Head of Global Model Solutions and Advisory at Guy Carpenter, to explore how one of the industry's most respected voices sees the future of modelling, capital management and advisory in reinsurance. With three decades of experience, Matthew reflects on what's changed — and what hasn't — in how reinsurers view risk. From the early days of catastrophe models to today's generative AI agents and open modelling platforms, he shares how his team is helping insurers manage volatility, optimise capital and drive profitable growth. In this episode, Matthew shares: Why flood, wildfire and severe convective storm are the perils to watch — and model — more closely How generative AI is already reshaping pricing, underwriting and actuarial workflows What insurers need to know about build vs buy when it comes to new analytics tools How Guy Carpenter is scaling open-source tech through Oasis and data standardisation What skills are now essential for new analysts entering the industry How AI agents are being used to replicate complex actuarial decisions in seconds Why “good enough” modelling still matters, and where precision can be a false economy The link between terrorism modelling and gaming engines — and what it signals for future innovation If you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Richard Hartley or Matthew Grant on LinkedIn.

Time is running out to get your tickets for Chaos Trivia! Team LMSU is joining forces with the fabulous folks from Currently Speaking for a blockbuster crossover event, with special guests, the NEMchat Singers. Chaos Trivia is set for the first night of the All Energy Conference on Wednesday 29 October in Melbourne, and as predicted, tickets are selling like hotcakes with only a few left! There will be trivia! Role playing? Musical interludes! Food! Drinks! And Tennant is still committed to some wizard cosplay! All proceeds go to the First Nations Clean Energy Network so - RUN, don't walk and snag tix for you or a whole trivia team.—Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a target! Your intrepid hosts reflect on the many and varied reactions to the slick and stage managed birthing of the Climate Change Authority's advice on a 2035 target and the Government's acceptance of their advice to adopt a target of 62-70% emissions reduction on 2005 levels by 2035. Simultaneously declared “Economy wrecking” (Opposition), “Weak and disappointing” (Greens) and “The sweet spot” (Prime Minister Albanese), it looks like business groups broadly land in the “benign toleration” camp and environment groups unhappy with the bottom end of the range. What do we reckon? The real debate starts now on the level of ambition needed in the policies to get to the top of the range—especially since current policies only get us to about 51% by 2035.Looking for fodder for your own opinion? Check out the op-eds penned by Luke and Adam Morton, and Adam's conversation with CCA Chair Matt Kean.Our main courseIt wasn't just the targets the Government served up last week that had your intrepid hosts salivating at the degustation menu of climate policy offerings to sample. Treasury modelling, NDCs, sector plans, OH MY! But y'all know the LMSU crew can't resist the sweet tantalising temptation of a seriously nerdy modelling exercise and so it was decided - there was never really any question - to the Treasury buffet we go! With three scenarios to unpack, a friendship of climate models used - TIM, MIRA, EMM, ALEX, anyone? There was a lot to digest in here! Eye watering economic upsides for green exports, signalling on declining fossil fuel exports, the cost of delay and some seriously refreshing honesty about limitations of modelling, there was something for everyone here and some significant foundations being laid for the future debate of climate policy in Australia.One more thingsTennant's One More Thing is: a fun Well Actually post, “Why every Sankey diagram you've ever seen is wrong” by Michael LiebreichFrankie's One More Thing is: a shout out from Marian Wilkinson in response to our recent episode on her Quarterly Essay on Woodside, saying she wanted to provoke a broader discussion on the influence of large companies like Woodside on federal and state politics and local communities. Love your work Marian!Luke's One More Thing is: a plug for his other podcast, First Fuel, which features his recent interview with Dr. Saul Griffith at the Energy in WA conference in which Saul predicts the economics of electrification will spur a rapid decline in gas exports and urged a pivot to clean commodities.And that's it for now, Summerupperers. There is now a one-stop-shop for all your LMSU needs: head toletmesumup.netto support us on Patreon, procure merch, find back episodes, and leave us a voicemail! 

This week we talk to LCP partner Cat Drummond about the latest developments in capital modelling for general insurers. We discuss: • Findings from LCP's latest market research and benchmarking, covering both technical developments, process and resourcing issues • Key challenges for insurers, from soft markets to regulatory expectations • How insurers are reflecting changing geopolitical and climate risks in their capital models

This week on the podcast we examine the results of the Office for Students' first sector-wide survey on sexual misconduct. With over 50,000 responses from final-year undergraduates, the data provides a stark picture of prevalence, reporting, and staff-student relationships in higher education. But with only sector-level results released, questions remain about transparency, accountability, and the regulator's approach to such a sensitive issue.Plus we discuss the politics and potential consequences of a proposed levy on international student fees – a policy idea that could reshape funding, recruitment, and the UK's global competitiveness. And we take stock of warnings from the Institute of Physics about possible closures of departments and courses, asking what this says about funding for high-cost subjects and the sector's capacity to manage contraction and change.With Charlotte Corrish, Head of Public Policy at the Office of the Independent Adjudicator for Higher Education, Mark Bennett, Vice President Research and Insight at Keystone Education Group, and David Kernohan, Deputy Editor at Wonkhe, and presented by Mark Leach, Editor-in-Chief at Wonkhe.The “regulatory burden” on sexual misconduct needs to lift the weight from studentsWhat OfS' data on harassment and sexual misconduct doesn't tell usIOP: Quarter of UK university physics departments risk closure as funding crisis bitesPublic First: Counting the cost – Modelling the economic impact of a potential levy on international student fees

Why leadership requires sensing and feeling, not just knowing, in 2025 Managers often prioritise what they “know,” while leaders rely more on what they “sense” and “feel.” This distinction, popularised by executive coach Marcel Danne, is more than semantics—it highlights a profound difference in mindset. As of 2025, with Japan navigating demographic challenges, digital disruption, and global uncertainty, the ability to sense and adapt has become more critical than simply knowing facts. What's the difference between managers and leaders in decision-making? Managers tend to focus on knowing first—building confidence through data, self-education, and sheer hard work. Leaders, however, prioritise sensing first—tuning into people, context, and emotions before deciding. In practice, this means managers often bulldoze forward with certainty, while leaders pause to feel and reflect before acting. In Japan, this distinction matters. Hierarchical firms often elevate those who “know,” but the complexity of 2025 requires leaders who can sense subtle shifts in markets, teams, and cultures. Mini-Summary: Managers lead with knowledge; leaders lead with sensing. In 2025 Japan, sensing is critical for navigating complexity. Why are managers often so confident in their own answers? Managers often rely on personal effort: self-education, long hours, and relentless execution. This creates confidence, even ego, but often without much self-awareness. Many managers assume the path is clear because they've worked hard to “know” it. This overconfidence mirrors Western corporate cultures where rugged individualism is prized. But in Japan, such confidence can clash with collaborative norms. A “my way or the highway” mindset alienates teams, undermining innovation and engagement. Mini-Summary: Managerial confidence stems from effort and ego, but without self-awareness, it risks alienating teams—especially in Japan. Why do Japanese firms prioritise questions over answers? Japanese business culture values asking the right questions more than having immediate answers. To a Western-trained manager, this seems counterintuitive, but it ensures decisions reflect collective wisdom. Leaders in Japan often pause to ask: Are we even solving the right problem? This contrasts with the West, where speed and decisiveness are praised. In 2025, Japanese organisations that blend both—rigorous questioning plus timely execution—are best positioned for global competition. Mini-Summary: In Japan, leaders prioritise asking the right questions before jumping to answers, ensuring collective wisdom shapes decisions. How do feelings reshape leadership effectiveness? Managers often dismiss emotions as distractions. Leaders, however, integrate feelings into decision-making. Dale Carnegie's Human Relations Principles emphasise empathy, appreciation, and understanding as essential leadership skills. Leaders who sense how people feel can adjust tone, timing, and messaging. In 2025, with hybrid work and employee burnout prevalent, emotional intelligence is more critical than ever. Companies like Hitachi and Sony are embedding empathy into leadership development to retain talent and drive innovation. Mini-Summary: Feelings, once ignored by managers, are now essential for leaders managing hybrid workforces and avoiding burnout. Can leaders evolve from “knowing” to “sensing”? Yes. Leaders can shift by gradually reordering their priorities. Many, like myself, began as managers focused on knowing and execution. Over time, through feedback and reflection, feelings and sensing moved to the forefront. For example, Dale Carnegie training encourages leaders to practice empathy, appreciation, and active listening. These skills shift behaviour from control to collaboration. Even small changes—like pausing before responding—signal growth. Mini-Summary: Leaders can evolve from knowing-first to sensing-first through training, reflection, and small behavioural changes. What should leaders do today to balance sensing and knowing? In 2025, leaders must balance data with empathy. This means: Asking the right questions before chasing answers. Listening actively to signals from teams and markets. Using knowledge as a foundation but not the driver. Modelling humility and curiosity in decision-making. Executives at firms like Toyota and Rakuten illustrate this blend, combining rigorous data with people-first leadership. Leaders who fail to evolve remain stuck in outdated managerial mindsets. Mini-Summary: Leaders must balance sensing and knowing by listening, questioning, and modelling humility—skills critical in 2025 Japan. Conclusion The difference between managers and leaders lies in order of priority: managers know first, leaders sense first. In Japan's complex 2025 environment, sensing, feeling, and questioning matter more than simply knowing. Leadership is a journey of self-discovery—moving from rugged individualism to collaborative sensing. The challenge for executives today is clear: are you still managing by knowing, or are you leading by sensing?

In this episode, hosts Tim and Keith finally realize their long-held dream of sitting down with their hero, the brilliant neuroscientist Professor Karl Friston. The conversation is a fascinating and mind-bending journey into Professor Friston's life's work, the Free Energy Principle, and what it reveals about life, intelligence, and consciousness itself.**SPONSORS**Gemini CLI is an open-source AI agent that brings the power of Gemini directly into your terminal - https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli--- Take the Prolific human data survey - https://www.prolific.com/humandatasurvey?utm_source=mlst and be the first to see the results and benchmark their practices against the wider community!---cyber•Fund https://cyber.fund/?utm_source=mlst is a founder-led investment firm accelerating the cybernetic economyOct SF conference - https://dagihouse.com/?utm_source=mlst - Joscha Bach keynoting(!) + OAI, Anthropic, NVDA,++Hiring a SF VC Principal: https://talent.cyber.fund/companies/cyber-fund-2/jobs/57674170-ai-investment-principal#content?utm_source=mlstSubmit investment deck: https://cyber.fund/contact?utm_source=mlst***They kick things off by looking back on the 20-year journey of the Free Energy Principle. Professor Friston explains it as a fundamental rule for survival: all living things, from a single cell to a human being, are constantly trying to make sense of the world and reduce unpredictability. It's this drive to minimize surprise that allows things to exist and maintain their structure.This leads to a bigger question: What does it truly mean to be "intelligent"? The group debates whether intelligence is everywhere, even in a virus or a plant, or if it requires a certain level of complexity. Professor Friston introduces the idea of different "kinds" of things, suggesting that creatures like us, who can model themselves and think about the future, possess a unique and "strange" kind of agency that sets us apart.From intelligence, the discussion naturally flows to the even trickier concept of consciousness. Is it the same as intelligence? Professor Friston argues they are different. He explains that consciousness might emerge from deep, layered self-awareness—not just acting, but understanding that you are the one causing your actions and thinking about your place in the world.They also explore intelligence at different sizes. Is a corporation intelligent? What about the entire planet? Professor Friston suggests there might be a "Goldilocks zone" for intelligence. It doesn't seem to exist at the super-tiny atomic level or at the massive scale of planets and solar systems, but thrives in the complex middle-ground where we live.Finally, they tackle one of the most pressing topics of our time: Can we build a truly conscious AI? Professor Friston shares his doubts about whether our current computers are capable of a feat like that. He suggests that genuine consciousness might require a different kind of "mortal" computation, where the machine's physical body and its "mind" are inseparable, much like in biological creatures.TRANSCRIPT:https://app.rescript.info/public/share/FZkF8BO7HMt9aFfu2_q69WGT_ZbYZ1VVkC6RtU3eeOITOC:00:00:00: Introduction & Retrospective on the Free Energy Principle00:09:34: Strange Particles, Agency, and Consciousness00:37:45: The Scale of Intelligence: From Viruses to the Biosphere01:01:35: Modelling, Boundaries, and Practical Application01:21:12: Conclusion

In this Craft of Fatherhood episode, host Ned Schaut challenges fathers to reflect deeply on a pivotal question: What are you modeling for your kids? Drawing from candid stories and personal struggles, Ned explores how the way we speak about others, show up in marriage, approach work, and set the tone at home creates a lasting picture for our children. He invites listeners to evaluate whether their actions align with the values they hope to pass on and ends with a powerful affirmation about identity and intentional fatherhood. This episode is a call to lead by example—because what we model matters more than what we say.Chapters:00:00:00 - Introduction: Welcome to the Craft of Fatherhood Podcast 00:00:20 - Central Question: What are you modeling for your kids? 00:00:47 - Personal Reflection: Modeling marriage for growing daughters 00:01:21 - Anecdote: How a parental divorce influenced a daughter's view on marriage 00:02:22 - Self-Reflection Point 1: The words you model in your home 00:02:50 - Self-Reflection Point 2: The example you set in your marriage 00:03:12 - Self-Reflection Point 3: How you model work and approachability 00:03:51 - Self-Reflection Point 4: The values you model in your home environment 00:04:11 - A challenge: How would your kids describe what you value? 00:04:50 - Affirmation Prompt: Who do you say that you are? 00:05:10 - A Father's Affirmation: I am here to listen, provide, protect, and care Links and Resources:Transform Your Body with Ned & RUK Fitness: RUK FitnessThis episode is sponsored by The Adventure of FatherhoodOrder The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?https://www.adventureoffatherhood.com/https://www.rebelandcreate.com/Each week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.

In this warm, idea-packed episode of The Forest School Podcast, Lewis and Wem move from personal updates to a deep dive on resilience. Using Looby McNamara's Cultural Emergence and Chris Johnstone's framing, they explore recovery, adaptive, transformative, and spreading resilience. They challenge the “just power through” myth, contrast perseverance with true resilience, and look at how groups become more sustainable through transparency, shared roles, and flatter hierarchies. Expect practical examples from fire-lighting to policy writing, plus reflections on neurodivergence, school attendance narratives, and how adults can model resilience when there's a supportive team around them.⏱ Chapter Timings:00:00 – Patreon intro and setting the scene for a busy month01:39 – London “bird orchestra,” road trip vibes, and upcoming FSA plans04:26 – What the FSA road shows are and why mini-conferences matter06:03 – Workshop picks: coil baskets, nature connection, and “dangerous toys”07:24 – A secret embargoed event, outfit chat, and Wem begins a PhD10:28 – Four types of resilience via Looby McNamara and Chris Johnstone12:53 – Oxford definitions: beyond “hardness” to bouncing and recovery20:12 – Adaptive resilience vs perseverance: the fire-lighting example22:42 – Community resilience: transparency, small teams, and avoiding burnout41:54 – Modelling resilience, flatter hierarchies, and support networks

Have you ever wished you had a trusted partner by your side in your coaching work, someone who elevates your ideas, shares the load, and helps you grow in ways you could never achieve alone? In this episode of the podcast, we explore the concept of co-coaching. Co-coaching is about more than simply sharing a client group with another professional. It is about building a relationship of trust, alignment, and mutual respect that enhances both the client experience and your own development as a coach. We reflect on our own journey together; how we first met, the values that underpin our partnership, and the ways co-coaching has helped us take bolder steps, hold space for complex group dynamics, and recover quickly when our minds go blank. There is a special kind of magic that happens when you can bounce ideas off someone who gets you, challenges you, and sees possibilities you might miss on your own. We discuss the very real benefits of working alongside another coach, from sharing creative preparation and delivering richer sessions, to having another set of eyes and ears to spot what's happening in the room. We share how co-coaching has supported us in debriefing after intense sessions, navigating moments of uncertainty, and modelling collaborative, respectful working relationships for our clients. There is also a strong business case for co-coaching. You gain access to each other's networks, expand your reach, and benefit from shared opportunities. Beyond that, the joy of celebrating milestones together, and simply having fun, makes the work more fulfilling. Whether you are considering co-coaching for the first time or want to deepen an existing partnership, this episode offers insights into how to choose the right partner, maintain a healthy dynamic, and create experiences that benefit everyone involved.   Timestamps: 00:39 – What co-coaching is and why it matters 02:27 – How idea-sharing elevates creativity and confidence 04:19 – Handling unexpected moments with authenticity 05:42 – Modelling collaboration for clients 06:36 – Choosing the right co-coach and aligning values 07:58 – The importance of debriefing after sessions 10:15 – Unique feedback opportunities through co-coaching 11:39 – Building connections and networks without competition 12:34 – The business benefits of shared audiences 13:58 – Celebrating milestones together and sustaining joy 15:50 – The flexibility of working together and independently 16:20 – How to explore co-coaching further through our training   Key Lessons Learned: Co-coaching provides a unique platform for creativity, confidence, and mutual support. Alignment in values, goals, and ways of working is essential for a thriving partnership. Having another coach present allows you to see and respond to group dynamics more effectively. A healthy co-coaching relationship models collaboration and flexibility for clients. The debrief process after sessions is crucial for learning, closure, and moving forward. Co-coaching expands your professional network and brings business opportunities. Variety in working styles and personalities benefits clients and broadens learning. Joy, celebration, and camaraderie are powerful motivators for long-term collaboration. Co-coaching can offer emotional resilience by sharing both the highs and the challenges. Strong relationships often start in shared learning environments such as CPD programmes.   Keywords: co-coaching, coaching partnerships, group coaching, team coaching, coach collaboration, professional coaching, coaching networks, coaching business growth, collaborative coaching, coach development,   Links & Resources https://www.igcompany.co.uk/gtc https://www.igcompany.co.uk/group
