On today's episode, co-hosts Yasmin Gagne and Josh Christensen discuss the latest news in business and innovation. Topics include the latest on tariffs, layoffs at companies like Amazon and Target, and NBCUniversal's poaching of Taylor Sheridan.     Next, Yaz and Josh talk to Fast Company senior editor Bryan Lufkin about “ghost jobs” and other hiring trends in the current, uncertain economic climate.   Finally, Yaz interviews Lucy Guo. Guo is the founder of the content creator monetization platform Passes, which lets creators make money from fans through things like selling merch and private chats. The company hasn't been without controversy and has faced lawsuits accusing it of allowing and encouraging the distribution of illegal content, including child sexual abuse material, as well as engaging in unfair business practices. Guo is also the cofounder of Scale AI, which Meta recently bought a 49% stake in. That sale made her, by some metrics, the youngest self-made billionaire. Yaz spoke to Guo about why she left Scale AI in 2018, how she responds to those lawsuits, and why she doesn't think we're in an AI bubble.

Welcome back for the conclusion of my conversation with retired Chief of Police and Author Brian Brady. Brian was born and raised in the San Francisco area and became a police officer in Berkeley, California, in the late sixties. He moved around to four different police departments, eventually attaining the rank of Chief of Police.  After decades of serving and protecting, he retired from police work and transitioned to becoming a corporate security executive. This path led him to holding executive positions at prestigious organizations such as NBC Universal and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Brian has published two crime novels and is working on his third.  I really enjoyed talking to someone like Brian, who has seen the evolution of police work through the years and worked his way up from police officer to chief. Brain is one of the few police chiefs I have known who didn’t lose their way and bend to politics and ego. He has a good heart, and that is what’s needed if you are going to lead a police force in today’s world of distorted priorities and egos. Please enjoy this informative and wide-ranging conversation with Brian Brady. In today’s episode, we discuss: ·      How departments are falsifying crime stats. ·      Why would you want to be a police chief? ·      Brian being in four different departments and did most jobs within the PD. What were his favorite positions and department? What was his least favorite? ·      How could the Alec Baldwin situation have happened? ·      Retired from law enforcement and going to corporate security. How difficult was it for him to transition to that? ·      The billion-dollar business of fine art security. ·      Where do art thieves fence priceless pieces of art? ·      The secret world of fine art forgeries. ·      Artificial intelligence and writing. ·      Talking about Harry Bosch and Titus Welliver! ·      His latest book, Greed. What is it about, and what should we expect? ·      The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum heist, which occurred on March 18, 1990, where 500 million in art was stolen. ·      If your book made it to the big screen, who would you want playing the main role? All of this and more on today’s episode of the Cops and Writers podcast. Check out Brian's website to learn more about him and his books! Check out the new Cops and Writers YouTube channel!

In the motion submitted on February 21, 2025, Ricco stated, "Under no circumstances can I continue to effectively serve as counsel for Sean Combs, consistent with the ABA Standards for Criminal Justice." He did not provide specific reasons for his decision, citing attorney-client privilege. Ricco assured the court that his withdrawal would not delay the trial scheduled for May 5, 2025, as Combs continues to be represented by five other attorneys, including lead counsel Marc Agnifilo. Combs has been incarcerated since his arrest in September 2024 on charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and related offenses, to which he has pleaded not guilty. The allegations against him include organizing illicit parties and other misconduct. In addition to his criminal case, Combs has filed a $100 million defamation lawsuit against NBCUniversal and the production company Ample, alleging that a docuseries falsely portrays him as a criminal.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Diddy faces fresh crisis as his lawyer Tony Ricco quits rapper's case with VERY mysterious statement | Daily Mail Online

On today’s episode of the Cops and Writers Podcast, I have with me retired Chief of Police and Author Brian Brady. Brian was born and raised in the San Francisco area and became a police officer in Berkeley, California, in the late sixties. He moved around to four different police departments, eventually attaining the rank of Chief of Police.  After decades of serving and protecting, he retired from police work and transitioned to becoming a corporate security executive.

We're back with our final Life in the Fast Lane for Lap 15, and it features one of my favorite brothers in the world! We kick off, as usual, with the Tokyo Drift Minute (#22), which is the type of minute we've been "fearing" (but it turns out okay!) and wherein Joey explores who Toshi is. We Run the VIN, where we find that Vin's Fast family is also hyping things up in his Instagram comments and where a screenshot Joey took uncovers a vastly different birthday post to Paul Walker. (How many Vinstagrams will we return to in the next Fast Lane? We worry.) Then, in On the Streets... Vin Diesel manifested one of his movies! Also: why is NBCUniversal bad-mouthing sending F9 to space? (More specifically: why now?) We open an overflowing mailbag. Joey shares news about Radiohead and navigating the depths of Danish Ticketmaster. We hear big news from the listeners, get the record set straight on Planet X, and discuss how Fast X breaks action movie protocol. We catch up on recently skipped segments (the Fast X Goof Troop and the Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 Letterboxd game), talk about the first two weeks of the NFL season, and discuss some movies, some concerts, and some other live events.

Our guest is Jay Richman, an Amazon vice president of product and technology who leads the technology team developing AI tools used by sellers and brands to create and deploy ads across Amazon's platforms. His career has tracked the evolution of digital media, from early apps for the Palm Pilot to the first wave of streaming at NBC Universal, and the reinvention of podcast ads and monetization at Spotify.

In this episode of Visual Intonation, we sit down with Rickey Larke, a filmmaker whose work pulses with heart, hustle, and an unshakable sense of purpose. From a childhood of sneaking candy into the AMC Showplace 12 in Bolingbrook, Illinois, to helming his most ambitious short film The Black Bart of Taco King #17, Rickey's journey is a testament to the power of perseverance and community. This is a conversation about the grind behind the glamour, the ten-year climb from unpaid PA gigs to producing a union-waivered short film during a historic industry shutdown. Rickey shares the full arc — from shooting music videos in Chicago to landing a desk at HBO, then stepping into writers' rooms on Black-ish, Kenan, and Grown-ish. Now a supervising producer at NBCUniversal, his path wasn't paved by privilege but powered by relentless work ethic, a deep love for storytelling, and the quiet pride of staying late, showing up early, and being the one who says yes when others hesitate. He talks candidly about the lessons learned behind the camera and the quiet victories that matter most, like wiring a gaffer her pay out of pocket, just to make sure she got what she was owed. We dig into The Black Bart of Taco King #17, a stylish and subversive short that premiered at the 2025 Essence Film Festival. Starring Jasmine Matthews and Derrick A. King, it's a cinematic duel at the dinner table, a heist of words and glances set in a dimly lit bar. Rickey breaks down how the film came together — the strikes, the stakes, the silent prayers behind every take — and what it means to create something with and for the communities that raised him. It's not just a film. It's a mirror, a mission, and maybe even a movement. This episode is about more than credits or accolades. It's about what it takes to build a career from the ground up, to lead with heart and hustle, and to make art that brings people closer. Rickey doesn't just want his work seen — he wants it felt, remembered, talked about in cars and kitchens long after the credits roll. So take a seat, press play, and step inside the world of a storyteller who's building something bigger than himself.  Rickey Larke's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbylarke/?hl=en  Rickey Larke's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rickey-larke-5288a957 Rickey Larke's BlkLst: https://blcklst.com/profile/directedbylarke  Rickey Larke's IMDB: https://m.imdb.com/name/nm10955561/ Support the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli speaks with Justin Evans, a seasoned executive and author of The Little Book of Data. With a career spanning leadership roles at major media and tech firms including Microsoft, NBCUniversal, and Paramount, Evans brings a rare combination of commercial acumen and data fluency to the conversation. His insights offer a refreshing—and deeply practical—framework for how senior leaders should think about data, not as a technical layer, but as a strategic lens.Far too often, CEOs and boards delegate “data” to specialists, only to find themselves disconnected from the systems shaping growth, innovation, and increasingly, AI-driven decision-making. Evans challenges that mindset. He argues that data is now a core leadership discipline—and avoiding it is no longer an option. But here's the twist: embracing data doesn't require becoming a data scientist. It requires leading with the right posture, questions, and level of clarity.Throughout the conversation, Evans offers real-world stories, from nonprofits reducing senior loneliness using conversational analytics, to multinationals unlocking hidden growth by surfacing unused operational data. What sets his thinking apart is not just the depth of his data expertise, but how convincingly he ties it back to purpose, impact, and leadership judgment.This is not a technical conversation. It's a strategic one. And for leaders wondering how to navigate a world increasingly shaped by algorithms, dashboards, and machine learning, this episode is both a wake-up call and a guidepost. If you've ever felt a step behind in the data conversation—or feared being sidelined in the age of AI—this dialogue will help you reframe and reengage with confidence.Actionable Takeaways:Hear how Justin Evans reframes data as a leadership language, not a technical specialty—and what that means for the C-suiteYou'll learn why humility and confidence are the twin mindsets leaders need to lead well in a data-driven worldHear how to spot the untapped 8% of growth potential that may be hiding in your organization's existing dataDiscover how great leaders crystallize complexity—and why that's the superpower that separates insight from noiseYou'll learn what to do when you feel out of your depth in technical conversations—and why that moment can be your greatest advantageHear why delegating understanding can quietly erode strategic control—and how to reclaim it without micromanagingLearn the real reason some executives quietly bounce off data-driven initiatives—and what to do to avoid itGain a framework for using data as a force multiplier for purpose and innovation, not just reportingHear how AI is beginning to create its own data streams—and what leaders must do to ensure alignment with mission and impactDiscover the kinds of questions leaders should be asking of their data teams—and why asking better questions is more important than knowing the answersConnect with Justin EvansJustin Evans LinkedIn The Little Book of Data: Understanding the Powerful Analytics that Fuel AI, Make or Break Careers, and Could Just End Up Saving the WorldConnect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

Do you know what you'll be retiring to? Join us for six Fridays starting on October 3rd and invest in Future You. Learn more here. ___________________________ How much time do you spend working out your body versus working out your emotional health? Physical fitness requires daily practice—hitting the gym once won't deliver the results you want. But when it comes to our emotions, we often think we'll "deal with that later" or assume we don't need to actively work on our emotional well-being. Emily Anhalt, clinical psychologist and author of Flex Your Feelings: Train Your Brain to Develop the 7 Traits of Emotional Fitness, knows this approach doesn't work. She's developed a framework for "emotional fitness"—an ongoing, proactive practice of strengthening your mental and emotional health through small, consistent habits that build resilience, curiosity, and communication skills before you need them. In this conversation, Emily shares how emotionally fit people approach life differently, why playfulness is a valuable health practice (with research to back it up), and practical strategies you can implement today. Her insights are particularly valuable and timely for those navigating retirement transitions, when stress doesn't disappear—it simply changes form. Emily Anhalt joins us from California. _______________________________ We Discuss Why emotional fitness requires daily practice, just like physical fitness How curiosity transforms defensiveness into opportunities for growth Why playfulness can increase creativity, collaboration, and longevity The hidden stress of retirement: identity, relationships, and meaning Setting boundaries: every "yes" is also a "no" to something else The power of "Relationship Retros" for proactive connection Using emojis strategically to improve communication and reduce misunderstandings Building new friendships through your existing network The monthly feedback message that can transform your relationships _______________________ Bio Dr. Emily Anhalt is the author of  Flex Your Feelings: Train Your Brain to Develop the 7 Traits of Emotional Fitness. She is a clinical psychologist, author, and cofounder of Coa, the gym for mental health. For the past fifteen years, Dr. Anhalt has worked clinically with executives, founders, and tech employees, and has conducted extensive research with prominent psychologists and entrepreneurs about how leaders can improve their emotional health.
