From building high-performing sales teams to balancing family life with professional growth, Brian shares insights on staying focused on “dollar productive activities” while cultivating a thriving culture and personal connections.Key TakeawaysDollar Productive ActivityBrian highlights how his early sales training around focusing on dollar-productive activities shaped both his professional and personal life. Whether closing sales or spending time with family, being intentional about high-value actions drives long-term results.CRM & Sales Process DisciplineDespite not being a “detail person,” Brian leans into CRM tools to manage opportunities, categorize customers, and keep sales teams accountable. He stresses that if you can keep all your prospects in your head, you're probably not doing enough activity.Scaling Teams & Building CultureGrowing from 7 to 40 team members in just a few years, Brian explains the importance of cadences—regular meetings, onboarding processes, and tough conversations to ensure cultural fit. Creating a space where passion aligns with purpose is essential for sustained success.Intentional Family TimeFrom playing chess with his son to CrossFit dates with his wife, Brian describes how intentionality extends beyond business into marriage and parenting. Simple, consistent actions—like Mark's “Daily Brief” practice with his wife—can have an outsized impact on relationships.Overcoming Challenges & WinsLeaving a long-term role in feed and forging into tech was one of Brian's toughest decisions, but it led to new opportunities and career wins. He shares stories of closing dairies of vastly different sizes and how objections become lessons when leveraged correctly.Books That Shape LeadershipBrian recommends Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara for transforming customer experience and Moneyball by Michael Lewis as a lesson in data-driven strategy and out-of-the-box thinking.Notable Quotes“What are you doing today that's truly driving toward the results you want?” – Brian Sanford“If you can keep your sales leads in your head, you're probably not doing enough activity.” – Brian Sanford“Sometimes the best thing you can do for culture is have the tough conversation: is this the right fit for you?” – Brian Sanford“Fear of letting go often costs more in money, time, and energy than the tough decision itself.” – Mark JewellAction StepsEvaluate your daily activities: are they “dollar productive”?Create intentional practices in your personal life (like shared activities or daily check-ins).Review your CRM discipline—are you documenting and leveraging your conversations effectively?Don't shy away from tough conversations when scaling a team.Consider reading Unreasonable Hospitality and Moneyball to reframe customer experience and strategic leadership.Listen If You AreA sales leader in agriculture or ag techAn entrepreneur growing a high-performing teamA professional balancing leadership with family lifeSomeone looking to refine both...
Send us a textIn this week's episode of The Wall Street Skinny, Kristen and Jen return to one of their favorite formats: dissecting the finance lessons hidden inside pop culture. This time, they take on Moneyball, a Michael Lewis classic that at first glance looks like a baseball story, but in reality is a masterclass in statistics, valuation, and market inefficiencies. Far more than just a sports narrative, Moneyball is about how disciplined analysis and data-driven decision-making can disrupt entrenched orthodoxy, whether on Wall Street or on the baseball field.Kristen and Jen break down how Billy Beane transformed the Oakland A's into one of the most competitive teams in baseball despite having one of the smallest budgets. From identifying undervalued assets (players) through on-base percentage and walks, to gaming the draft system with the savvy of a hedge fund trader, the discussion highlights how Beane's approach mirrors the strategies of top portfolio managers. The episode draws explicit parallels between constructing a winning baseball roster and building a resilient investment portfolio, making it essential listening for anyone serious about finance.The conversation also zooms out to compare the economics of MLB with the NFL and NBA, where league structures, revenue sharing, and salary caps create vastly different financial dynamics. Along the way, the hosts spotlight themes of efficiency, market psychology, and the importance of independent thinking in both sports and investing. It's the perfect prelude to next week's special episode featuring one of the greatest Major League players of all time.For a 14 day FREE Trial of Macabacus, click HERE For 20% off Deleteme, use the code TWSS or click the link HERE!

In this episode of Around the School Table (xuno.com.au/podcasts), host Steve Davis is joined by Ryan Ma, assistant principal of Saltwater P–9 College, one of Australia’s fastest-growing schools. Since opening its gates in 2019 with 490 students, Saltwater has expanded to more than 2,200 learners in just six years. With families representing over 29 nationalities and 81 languages, the school is a living snapshot of modern multicultural Australia. Ryan explains how Saltwater balances the opportunities and challenges of such rapid growth. From welcoming new families every week to ensuring academic quality across a staff of 250 teachers, the college has re-imagined what it means to create belonging on a large scale. For students, being the “new kid” is a short-lived experience; soon replaced by another arrival: fostering a culture of welcome and adaptability. Central to Saltwater’s philosophy is the International Baccalaureate framework, with its emphasis on inquiry, student agency, and multiple perspectives. Ryan shares how this approach allows students to move beyond rote learning into deeper, critical engagement with global issues, while also leveraging the diversity of the school community itself as a learning resource. Staff retention and collaboration are also front and centre. Instead of isolated teaching roles, Saltwater builds faculty teams that plan and problem-solve together, much like diagnostic teams in hospitals. Teachers share insights, support each other, and collectively tackle challenges. Data plays a pivotal role too. Inspired by the film Moneyball, Ryan demonstrates how tools like Student Maps is used to track progress, support teachers, and ensure strategies are effective. Rather than relying solely on instinct, evidence helps Saltwater refine practice and maintain consistency at scale. Looking ahead, Ryan reflects on the future of education in Point Cook and beyond. With technology transforming access to information, he argues that schools must focus on relationships, resilience, and collaboration; the skills that will define success in the twenty-first century.

What says summer more than Major League Baseball and movie stars at the cinema? So, this week we're reviewing Moneyball! This became an instant classic for sports fans across the country, but does it work for us? This is Ryan's birthday month one-off pick. Come back next episode as we discuss a movie made for the dog-days of August, Heat starring Al Pacino and Robert De Niro!
When small-market teams face off against deep-pocketed competitors, winning means rewriting the rules of the game. That's exactly what happened in Moneyball, where the Oakland A's turned to unconventional metrics and overlooked talent to outsmart the league's biggest spenders. In this episode, we explore the marketing lessons behind it with special guest Scott Greenwald, CMO at Linedata.Together, we dive into how B2B marketers can rethink the metrics that matter, compete asymmetrically against larger rivals, align teams around bold strategies, and tell stories that stick, all while staying credible, prepared, and ready to adapt.About our guest, Scott GreenwaldAt Linedata, Scott's tenure as Chief Marketing Officer has been marked by the successful leadership of a dynamic, multi-lingual team and the creation of transformative digital marketing strategies. Our efforts have resulted in a staggering 600% year-over-year increase in web traffic, contributing significantly to a 20% generation of the sales pipeline.Scott's role extends to overseeing the marketing budget and launching a new CRM and Marketing Automation tool, which has streamlined Linedata's pipeline review process and accelerated the sales cycle. With a focus on driving market visibility and thought leadership, Scott's strategic campaigns across key global markets have empowered Linedata to cement its presence in the competitive financial services industry.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Moneyball:Focus on the outcomes that matter. In Moneyball, the point wasn't to sign the flashiest “five-tool” players; it was to score runs. The same is true in marketing. Scott says, “In the end, it's how many of the MQLs turn into opportunities or new business? And that's what we focus on.” Metrics that look good in a report mean nothing if they don't turn into real pipeline and closed deals. In B2B, your scoreboard isn't impressions or clicks, it's revenue.Credibility over volume in content. AI makes it easy to crank out more content than ever before, but more isn't always better. “If we suddenly increased our, our, our output fivefold, we, we would lose that credibility,” Scott says. His team uses AI to adapt and reformat high-quality core pieces, not flood the market with fluff. Your audience notices when your content is consistent, credible, and worth their time—and they notice just as fast when it's not.Compete asymmetrically. The A's couldn't outspend the Yankees or Red Sox, so they had to outthink them. That meant challenging every “sacred cow” in baseball and finding value others overlooked. Scott explains, “You can't come in here and say, I'm going to transform this marketing organization into what I had before… you have to assess the talent pool [and] review the best way of spending the marketing budgets you have.” In marketing, the same rule applies: when you can't match your competitors' budget, you win by rewriting the playbook.Quote“It is our responsibility as storytellers of not just giving the business what they want, but also giving the audience what they need to hear.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Scott Greenwal, CMO at Linedata[01:04] Why Moneyball?[06:45] Behind the Scenes of Moneyball[10:00] B2B Marketing Lessons from Moneyball[31:51] The Importance of Storytelling[37:18] The Role of Communication in Change Management[41:02] The Evolution of Marketing Automation[45:30] Balancing Content Quality and Quantity[47:00 Final Thoughts & TakeawaysLinksConnect with Scott on LinkedInLearn more about LinedataAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

In this episode, Jethro Jones welcomes Patrick Mongrain, a middle school teacher, instructional coach, and restorative justice specialist, to discuss building sustainable systems in education. Patrick shares his “Moneyball” approach—leveraging data and analytics to improve classroom instruction and teacher support. He emphasizes the importance of moving beyond quick fixes and initiative fatigue by focusing on eight key practices that create hope and clarity for educators.Moneyball - Billy Bean developed a system of analytics to make a better system. Judging people based on unimportant data and perceptions. Applying a similar approach to how we teach. Spending time in different areas that see what great things are happening all over the place. Stop throwing shiny objects at the problem. The Key Performance Indicators: Class RoutineCommunity DataCorrective FeedbackInformed SupervisionOpportunities To RespondPositive FeedbackPositive Feedback RangeStudent To Teacher TimeTeaching ExpectationSystems = hopeKnowing what to do next gives people hope. That's how systems create hope. 2% of teachers need to be evaluated, 98% of teachers need to be coached. Evaluation as a hoop to jump through. Teachers are so incredible, having an evaluation system that is so complex makes it difficult. Repeating is not the same as creating. Two injustices against teachers - evaluations Evaluation systems seem intentionally overwhelming.Initiative FatigueTrust Based Observations Edchanger Pro app - Make observations like a How to be a transformative principal? Relationships - taking the time to connect with them. Self-care is working in a system that you feel confident in. About Patrick MongrainPatrick Mongrain is a certified teacher currently serving in a TOSA role. He taught middle school history and leadership for 10 years and has spent another 10 years as a district-level instructional coach and restorative justice specialist. In his current position within the professional learning department, he divides his time evenly between teaching in classrooms, supporting school leaders in building systems, and working on district wide improvement. Patrick believes teachers are incredible, and to truly support them, we must move beyond quick fixes and do the hard work of building and sustaining systems. In this spirit, he has created a coherent instructional framework that applies a “Moneyball” approach, leveraging data and analytics on key performance indicators. He's written a book Theory Can Only Take You So Far and developed a data collection app called Edchanger Pro that brings this system to life.Contact: E-mail: pmongrain65@comcast.netWebpage: https://www.youtube.com/@EdChanger and www.EdChanger.comApp: EdChanger Pro: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/edchanger-pro/id6741165826 LinkedIn: Patrick Mongrain Join the Transformative Mastermind Today and work on your school, not just in it.

It's time for the movie based on the book about baseball sabermetrics which somehow ended up being entertaining as hell. Starring Brad Pitt, Jonah Hill and the always amazing Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Moneyball covered the beginning of the Billy Beane era as GM of the Oakland A's, a team whose ownership was simply incapable of competing with rich MLB franchises such as the New York Yankees. Beane was determined to find a new way of valuing players in order to find the ones who could produce runs at cut-rate salaries in order to compete on an unfair playing field. Yep, sounds boring, yet the screen version was funny, heartwarming, engaging and suspenseful. Yes, the saying is trite as hell, but it was a home run.

You don't build an empire selling $.15 hamburgers. You build an empire on the land that those hamburgers are made of. Power of the name, branding, McDonald's is the new American church on main street. A vision of a wholesome America, families go to eat share values. Branding see that name lit up on the sign. McDonald's sounds like America. Would you eat at a place named Crocs? Guy eats at McDonald's he's never going to get pushed around. Great book on McDonald's, and the industry called Fast Food Nation by Eric S Speedee system, bring factory component to a kitchen. Redesign a kitchen for speed and efficiency, orders in 30 seconds like a conveyor belt. No plates all paper throw it away when done. You have a service window people walk up and get their food immediately. The idea of being is to go lean. Initially there was a learning curve with customers but soon it caught on and it was the model for all fast food restaurants.

What Business Are You In? - McDonalds is a Real Estate Company Replay Clip from 2/9/20, where Matt talks about the biggest franchise of all, and what their real business model is. McDonalds has built a business empire thru Real Estate, not burgers. The Dollar Menu is designed to get customers in the door. McDonalds loses $ when people purchase from the dollar menu, it is a Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC). This is also called a ‘Loss Leader', selling a product at a low cost to get customers. McDonalds then makes money when people buy more, and off return business. McDonalds is one of the biggest Real Estate companies in the world. The stock is valued on the $37 Billion in Real Estate they own. They make money as a landlord, because the franchisee is their tenant. The Founder – business movie biography of Ray Kroc. Kroc started as a milk shake salesmen to the McDonalds brothers in California, then went on to create the franchise system we know today. The first President of McDonalds Franchise (Harry Sonneborn) helped Kroc create the real estate model that the franchise was base on, and used to scale to a billion $ company. Internally McDonalds used the Brother's Speedee Service System created pre-Kroc. The Question ‘What Business Are You In?' comes from business consultant Peter Drucker. Business owners need to understand what problem or service they really offer their customers.

Sean and Amanda return to continue their yearlong project of listing the 25 best movies of the 21st century so far. Today they discuss one of the greatest sports movies of all time: Bennett Miller's ‘Moneyball'—starring Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill. They explore the film's very curious production history with director Steven Soderbergh, share why they think this was the best performance of Pitt's career, and examine what the movie's legacy is considering Miller's lack of work following its release.

In this week's Born to Watch, the lads swing for the fences with their deep dive Moneyball (2011) Review. Whitey, Dan on the Land, and Will “The Worky” take to the mound to dissect why this unconventional baseball flick, starring Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill, continues to resonate over a decade later.From the get-go, it's clear this isn't your typical sports movie review. The team kicks off with backyard renovations, foot fetish tangents, and a laugh-out-loud discussion on the bizarre world of Japanese vending machines, classic Born to Watch territory. But once they find their groove, it's all baseball, banter, and brilliance.Moneyball, based on the true story of Oakland A's GM Billy Beane, gets the full pod treatment. The trio wax lyrical about Pitt's understated performance, Hill's against-type turn as the socially awkward numbers guy, and Philip Seymour Hoffman's quietly simmering portrayal of sceptical coach Art Howe. Whitey makes the case for this being one of Pitt's finest performances, yes, even better than his Oscar-winning turn in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Dan and Will aren't far behind in their praise, though they're quick to point out the poetic license the film takes with some of its real-life counterparts.Of course, it wouldn't be Born to Watch without the gang tackling the “overs and unders.” Will throws a curveball with a surprisingly low watch count, while Whitey admits he's clocked in over 40 viewings. Dan, as always, brings the analytical fire, no surprise for a man who appreciates Michael Lewis' storytelling DNA, also behind The Big Short.The trio also tackles one of the episode's core questions: Why are baseball movies so damn good? Is it the history? The romance? The slower pace that allows for actual acting? Whatever the formula, it works. From The Natural and Field of Dreams to Major League and Bull Durham, the guys rattle off their favourites with the kind of passion you only get from true movie lovers.There's also an appreciation for the film's dry, cerebral tone. Unlike other sports flicks that rely on big plays and locker room speeches, Moneyball thrives on boardroom tension, Excel spreadsheets, and quiet moments of doubt. Yet somehow, it's riveting. It's a film about math, risk, and the emotional cost of change, and yet it's as compelling as any game-winning homer.Listeners are treated to the usual podcast hallmarks: mock trailers, roast reviews (with one critic thoroughly torn apart), and a beautifully read back-of-the-DVD synopsis that outshines the studio blurb. Whitey's disdain for the critic who panned the movie is particularly entertaining, while Dan gives a thoughtful defence of Moneyball's cinematic liberties.The episode also veers into classic BTW chaos. There's a spirited debate on the merits of Jack and Jill (spoiler: there are none), a nostalgic dive into The Inbetweeners as a sleeper hit of 2011, and an epic sidetrack into surfing journalism and Jonah Hill's transformation from comedy darling to surf-culture punching bag. It's podcast whiplash in the best possible way.As always, the “Ordinary People” segment stands out, offering a nuanced examination of the film's characters and the performances that bring them to life. The pod pays homage to Philip Seymour Hoffman, laments Jonah Hill's real-life reputation despite his on-screen brilliance, and even finds time to praise an uncredited Spike Jonze cameo that nearly steals the film.In the end, Moneyball gets the respect it deserves, a deeply human story wrapped in a sports movie shell. For the Born to Watch crew, it's not just about baseball; it's about challenging the system, betting on the misfits, and finding magic in the margins.So whether you're a sabermetrics savant or just love a good underdog story, this episode is a must-listen.Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts!Join the conversation:Is Moneyball the smartest sports movie ever made?Could you build a winning team with just data?And is Brad Pitt's Billy Beane his most underrated role?#BornToWatch #Moneyball #BradPitt #JonahHill #BaseballMovies #Sabermetrics #SportsMovies #FilmPodcast #AaronSorkin #MichaelLewis #PhilipSeymourHoffman #UnderdogStory #MovieNight

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training We've been talking about AI on this podcast for years — not just as the next shiny tool, but as the biggest shift agencies will face this decade. Yet most agencies still haven't done more than dabble. Meanwhile, their competitors (or even their clients) are using AI to move faster, make sharper decisions, and drive results that leave everyone else scrambling to catch up. If you're still on the sidelines, you're already behind. Today's guest is clear about the game-changing role of AI in the agency world. He argues it's not just about making your shop more efficient — it's about driving better client results, delivering faster, deeper insights, and adding to your bottom line. Agencies that fail to embrace AI risk being outpaced by clients who bring it in-house or by competitors already using it to gain an edge. To stay competitive, you have to take a forward-thinking approach that uses AI to scale operations, increase client value, and keep your best people. Phil Parrish is the co-founder & President of PrograMetrix, a boutique programmatic advertising agency that also crushes it in paid search and paid social. Celebrating their 10-year anniversary this past April, Phil's team has stayed nimble, focused, and mighty — helping clients dominate their digital paid media while driving real, measurable results. He'll discuss his vision on AI, how he's using it as a multiplier, and why that are not already adapting their processes to include this technology, will be exposed. In this episode, we'll discuss: Navigating pipeline churn anxiety. Delivering quick wins with AI. Why agencies that don't adapt will get exposed. Focus on the wins, not just the tasks.

Betting on Yourself (And Getting Clients to Bet on You Too) Phil didn't stumble into agency ownership by accident, but he didn't overcomplicate it either. He built strong client relationships over the years, recognized the moment when he thought, “I can do what this company does — why not do it for myself?” and took the leap. With clients ready to follow, he launched PrograMetrix and started generating revenue quickly, sidestepping much of the risk that keeps many would-be agency owners stuck. The takeaway? If you've built trust and consistently delivered, clients will follow when you launch your own shop. Relationships and results are your best startup capital. Navigating Uncertainty Without Panic Every agency owner hits moments of chaos—those “Are we going under?” nightmares that keep you up at 3 AM. So far, Phil's journey hasn't quite hit the “we can't make payroll” panic, but pipeline uncertainty and client churn anxiety were very real, especially during COVID-19. Ironically, the pandemic ended up being a huge growth driver. As trade shows and in-person events vanished, clients who were spending six figures on live events had to redeploy budgets digitally. PrograMetrix was perfectly positioned to catch that wave. “You've got to have a good business plan, offer strategic value, make smart bets, and stay laser-focused when your back's against the wall.” It's a solid reminder: when chaos hits, the cream rises. The agencies that pivot fast come out stronger. AI: Beyond Social Posts and Rocket Emojis Let's get real: most agencies are looking at AI like it's a shortcut to crank out social posts and blog content (and yes, that's part of it). But Phil's approach is a level above—he's integrating AI deeply into PrograMetrix's operations to enhance speed, insights, and performance, not just save a few hours per week. In his view, agencies that have depended on time as their inventory and work on the basis that the more time they can utilize the more revenue they can drive will struggle unless they modernize operations using AI. For its part, Phil's agency is building a proprietary product using a licensed data warehouse, pulling data from all their platforms (The Trade Desk, Meta, Google, TikTok, LinkedIn, etc.), and using AI to run advanced queries and develop unique optimization techniques. The end goal would be to deliver faster, clearer, and more impactful insights that clients can't get by simply logging into their ad accounts. The bottom line: If your agency isn't embedding AI into how you operate and deliver, not just as a tool to “save time,” clients will either bring it in-house or go with an agency that does. The market is moving, and speed and value are non-negotiables if you want to win and retain serious clients. Delivering Quick Wins and Story-Driven Insights Mid-market and enterprise clients dropping six to seven figures on ad spend need to feel your authority and your velocity from day one. They need to breathe easier knowing your agency has it handled, and they need to see progress fast, or they'll be out. Using AI, Phil's agency uncovers insights like: Path to conversion (impressions and touchpoints before a sale) Channel impact across the funnel Audience segment insights Messaging that drives real ROI They're not just sending reports but turning complex data into actionable stories for their clients. If you're still measuring your agency's success by how much time you can bill rather than how much impact you can deliver, it's time to rethink your model before your clients rethink you. Why Agencies That Don't Adapt Will Get Exposed Look, AI isn't going to wipe out agencies. But it will wipe out agencies that are stuck operating like it's 2015, coasting on outdated processes, and sending the same recycled reports clients can pull themselves. AI is like the giant scoreboard in baseball, showing every advanced stat in real-time. Agencies that are half-assing delivery can't hide anymore. If you're running bad ads, AI will show your client you suck, and you'll get fired. (Like the agency I just fired.) AI won't kill the agency model, but it will expose agencies not using best-of-breed tools to deliver value faster. AI as a Multiplier, Not a Threat — and Saves Him $200K Phil is using AI as a force multiplier to: Deliver faster, clearer insights for clients Optimize campaigns for even a 2-3% lift that compounds over time And they're doing this without having to invest in new talent at the rate they otherwise would have. As Phil says, “if we can skip hiring one or two traders, that's a $200K swing to the bottom line.” And it's not because he doesn't value his team—he's investing in making his team better. AI helps smart people do better work, get better results, and actually enjoy their jobs. Clients see more value, your agency scales efficiently, and your team sticks around longer, reducing churn and recruitment costs. It's About Buying Wins, Not Just Doing Tasks If you've seen Moneyball, know Billy Beane reinvented baseball by focusing on “getting on base,” not vanity stats. Agencies should think the same way: What are your “get on base” moves that drive client results? Are you outcome-driven and problem-solving, or are you a task rabbit waiting to be replaced by AI? When clients have big challenges, do they come to you first, or are you stuck doing low-value production work? If it's the latter, it's a sign to reposition your agency now. If you don't, you're writing your own exit letter from the industry. Make AI Use Mandatory, Not Optional As an agency leader, it's time to go all-in on integrating AI across all SOPs, not just as an add-on for the leadership team. Why? Because this tech: Makes employees more valuable in the marketplace Makes them happier by removing annoying, low-leverage tasks Keeps your team aligned with your agency's growth goals Before they started using AI prompts to understand how to optimize a campaign or improve performance, their campaign managers were conducting huge Excel exports. Now they can focus on strategy. If you're the only one using AI in your agency, you're toast. You need to lead, train, and require your team to use these tools to become outcome-focused problem solvers rather than task executors. Stop Being Fearful. Start Doing If you're feeling fear around AI, that's normal. But you'll stay scared if you don't start using it. Phil's team didn't wait for a perfect moment; they're actively building, testing, and refining AI use across their delivery and ops. The agencies that will win over the next 3-5 years aren't the ones worrying about AI—they're the ones using it to solve bigger problems faster for their clients.

The concept of government is under attack. In the United States, Donald Trump has fired tens of thousands of federal workers; ignored congressional statutes; insulted judges; and allowed Elon Musk, the world's richest man, access to sensitive government information in a slash-and-burn campaign against the US government. In June 2025 Michael Lewis, the renowned author of bestselling non-fiction masterpieces including Moneyball, The Big Short, Flash Boys and Liar's Poker, came to the Intelligence Squared stage to tell the inside story of how the Trump administration is dismantling the government and how potentially disastrous the consequences for us all might be. Drawing from his new collection of essays Who is Government? The Untold Story of Public Service, Lewis argued that we must remember the often overlooked ways government officials do work that is deeply consequential to our lives. He shared impactful stories of public service, such as the story of a coal miner devoted to making mine roofs less likely to collapse and an Internal Revenue Service agent fighting tax evasion like a character straight out of a crime thriller. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

Today's episode is a big one. We're joined by Jaimie Fuller — Chairman and co-founder of eo, the company behind eo SwimBETTER, the wearable that's quietly but rapidly changing how elite swimmers train. If you follow the tech side of the sport, you've heard the buzz: real data, real-time feedback, real results. But this conversation isn't just about gadgets and gear. It's about values. Fuller and eo have launched the Integrity Wall campaign, taking dead aim at the Enhanced Games. It's a bold stance in a sport that, frankly, has a complicated history talking about clean performance. Fuller tells us why he felt compelled to draw a line in the sand, and why now is the time for swimming to take a clear position. We also get into the data revolution — how athletes like Pan Zhanle, Paige Madden, and Kyle Chalmers are showing what's possible when you blend tech, technique, and transparency. Fuller opens up on how eo's AI-driven tools are reshaping the athlete-coach dynamic, unlocking gains without crossing lines. And — hot off the press — we break down Swimming's Moneyball, a new documentary from eo that drops today. It's a fresh look at how data is redefining what it means to be fast in the water. If you care about the future of swimming, clean sport, or what happens when tech meets talent, this is an episode you don't want to miss. Editor note: Jaimie Fuller does state in this podcast interview that the Enhance Games is promoting pharmaceutical sales. We did review the Enhanced Games website, and (as of the day of this report), the homepage of the Enhanced Games website has a button in the upper righthand corner GET ENHANCED. When you click that button you are taken to enhanced performance products. TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy) is listed with a dollar amount to buy.
