Podcasts about NCR

  In an episode that is also available on video form on our Patreon, Ben and Tumaini  are back together for the first time since their late nights in Melbourne, catching up on a busy week of February tennis. The WTA calendar seemed to reach an abrupt breaking point, Carlos Alcaraz kept winning, Jessica Pegula showed just how underrated she is, and Arthur Fils and Jack Draper made comebacks. We also discuss another comeback about which not much is yet known...that of Serena Williams. Plus a look at the future of the South American swing and what's causing its struggles, as well as the looming shadow of the soon-arriving Saudi ATP 1000 event.

In this episode, Julia speaks with Maria in the final conversation of the Trust series — turning attention to what happens to trust in a crisis, when plans fall away and decisions must be made quickly.Maria reflects on trust not as something that can be trained or demanded, but as something that is created over time through communication, shared values, and relationships. A crisis, she explains, does not create trust — it reveals it. In moments of pressure, leaders rely instinctively on the systems, cultures, and people they have already built.The conversation explores the nightmare scenario of crisis leadership: being trapped in a system you do not trust, surrounded by people you do not trust, guided by values you do not trust. Without psychological safety, transparency, and shared responsibility, stress rises, communication collapses, and people look for exits rather than solutions.Maria and Julia discuss what sustains trust under pressure: presence, consistency, honesty, and the courage to listen. They talk about trust as a two-way practice — trusting others to speak up, and being trustworthy enough to genuinely hear what is said, especially when it is uncomfortable.This episode is a reminder that trust is the greatest asset in a crisis — and that it can only be drawn on if it has been built, carefully and deliberately, long before the crisis begins.About the Guest: Maria is a Master Certified Coach (MCC), accredited by the International Coach Federation (ICF) with more than 4,000 coaching hours. She brings over 25 years of corporate and consulting experience, having held senior regional and global leadership roles in international organizations. Her career includes positions such as ManagingPartner at ecap;Group Head of Organizational, Learning & TalentDevelopment at J&P; Global HR Director at Vision; andEEMEA Training & Development Manager at Nielsen.She has also led Talent Acquisition for NCR across the MEA region and served as an Executive Leadership Trainer and Mentor at PwC.Maria holds a Bachelor's degree in Statistics and Insurance Studies from the University of Piraeus, a Postgraduate Diploma in Management from MIM, and a Master's degree in Human Resource Management from Middlesex University.

Fallout Season 2 - Ep 382: We head back into the Wasteland to talk Fallout Season 2 on Normies Like Us. After Season 1 proved a video game adaptation could actually stick the landing, we break down the characters, factions, and lore threads that feel primed for expansion, plus the big questions Season 2 needs to answer. From Vault mysteries to Brotherhood politics and the tone-balancing act between bleak apocalypse and pitch-black humor, we speculate wildly, argue passionately, and absolutely overthink everything. Grab your RadAway and tune in—war never changes, but Normies gonna norm. @Normies_Like_Us https://www.instagram.com/normies_like_us/ @jacob https://www.instagram.com/_j__a___c___o__b_/ @Mike_Has_Insta https://www.instagram.com/mike_has_insta/ https://letterboxd.com/BabblingBrooksy/ https://letterboxd.com/hobbes72/ https://letterboxd.com/mikejromans/

Power rarely announces itself; it hides in helpful tech, polished speeches, and the stories we tell to sleep at night. Our latest review dives headfirst into Fallout Season 2's brutal calculus: New Vegas as a glittering stalemate, mind control as a management strategy, and the thin line between saving someone and crowning a tyrant. We trace Lucy's iron optimism through a prison of choices, from a hospital rescue that backfires to a final moment with Hank that cuts deeper than any bullet. We follow Cooper, the man under the ghoul, through flashbacks that recast him as a loyal soldier and a betrayed husband, and we weigh whether a clue in Colorado can still mend a family that time and radiation have twisted.Inside the Brotherhood, the armor looks the same, but the orders don't. Maximus stumbles into leadership and faces a rift sharpened by relics and pride, where a single decision to protect ghoul children burns every rule he signed. Dane and Thaddeus add tension and comic grit, while Area 51 and the Liberty Prime blueprint promise a war that will outsize any power armor. On the Strip, House pitches survival as math, the NCR hedges its bets, and Caesar's Legion returns with a polished voice and a paper crown that still cuts. The “Kaiser's Palace” wink lands hard because it's true of every faction here: mythmaking is the only currency that never devalues.Down in the vaults, the satire stings. Norm drags Vault-Tec's suits into daylight, only to find the company's best product was always obedience. Steph's path from occupied Canada to a ceremony nobody asked for expands the map and raises the stakes on identity, memory, and who gets to write the official version. Hank's chip network exposes a quiet empire built on borrowed wills. Lucy's last act with her father—mercy as amputation—asks a question we can't shake: if the wasteland can't hold a fair trial, what does justice look like?Stream the full breakdown for sharp takes, lore links, and bold season three bets, from New Vegas sieges to that Colorado tease.

There was going to be history on Sunday no matter what, and Ben and Tumaini end their Australian Open coverage with discussion of Carlos Alcaraz's big win over Novak Djokovic, coming back from a slow start to clinch his career slam by winning the Australian Open, his seventh major title overall. We discuss Alcaraz's present and his ambitions for all-time greatness, where this event leaves his rivalry with Sinner, the future for Djokovic, the significance of a post-Ferrero win. We also, as we planned, use our last show of the tournament to look back at one of the early storylines: American players getting questions about U.S. politics in press conferences, and why we think this is a completely fair and rational thing to have happen.

After a very good women's final, Ben and Tumaini hop the microphone once more to discuss Elena Rybakina's impressive three-set win over Aryna Sabalenka, avenging her loss in the final here three years ago. We discuss Rybakina's strong form, her potential to challenge for the top spot in the rankings, as well as Sabalenka's struggles in some of these big matches while still being the clear top player in women's tennis overall. We also discuss the remarkable arc of Stefano Vukov, Rybakina's coach, who was banned from the premises of the Australian Open a year ago, but this year collected a coach's trophy.

After a dozen days that were mostly dull, the Australian Open kicked into high gear on Day 13, and so Ben and Tumaini stayed up late to discuss what made it so great. Carlos Alcaraz was up big, then was in trouble, then was up against the wall, but finally eked out a rousing win over Alexander Zverev to book his spot in his first Australian Open final.  But instead of being joined by his customary opponent Jannik Sinner for the fourth time in a row in a major final, Alcaraz will face 38-year-old Novak Djokovic, who used his restedness to deliver a redline beauty of a match. We look ahead to the final and how Djokovic might be able to win it, where these losses leave both Zverev and Sinner, and more.

The women's Australian Open final is now known for this year, and Ben and Tumaini also talk about several other buzzy topics of the day. We start with Aryna Sabalenka and the great win she had, as well as the strange hindrance call, which leads to a grunting rehash. We also discuss Elena Rybakina, and the high-quality second set she had against Pegula. We then take on two other topics of the day: the player backlash against cameras prying into their backstage lives, as well as the increasingly apparent (and rapidly approaching) Serena Williams comeback.

This Australian Open still hasn't yet had the epics we've been hoping for, but Ben and Tumaini are here to review and preview as hope springs eternal, and as the star-studded quarterfinals make way for the star-studded semifinals. There were a lot of duds in the quarterfinals, it must be said, none duddier than Lorenzo Musetti's brutal injury while commandingly leading Novak Djokovic. We also discuss the greatness of Aryna Sabalenka, and the great play of soon-to-be semifinal opponents Elena Rybakina and Jessica Pegula.

The first four rounds of the Australian Open featured historically few upsets--the Top 6 seeds are all still in for both the men and women—and so Ben and Tumaini had lots of big stars to talk about heading into the business end of this tournament. We start with the women: Sabalenka-Jovic, Gauff-Svitolina, Pegula-Anisimova, and Rybakina-Swiatek. And then on the men's side, there's Alcaraz-de Minaur, Zverev-Tien (after Tien demolished Medvedev), Musetti-Djokovic, and Shelton-Sinner. Lastly, Tumaini talks about his cousin being very famous now.  Thank you for listening! Our Patreon is back up and running to ensure NCR keeps going and stays ad-free, and we hope you can join in supporting NCR!

She has over 200 articles published online to date. She has held various roles within the publishing industry for the past 25 years. Darlene has been writing short stories and books since she first learned how to put pen to paper. This book is a culmination of a life's pursuit and comes out of a love for words and writing, relatable characters, a little bit of sci-fi, love and suspense.Inner Sanctum was written primarily in the NCR, particularly at Brewed Awakenings in Kemptville, Ontario -- lattes, books, and great atmosphere just seem to go hand in hand.Inner Sanctum: Remnant - The last-known remnants of life from Upper World Earth is dying.The underground city of Egerton's population – saved from almost certain death on the surface 400 years ago – is shrinking.Family Control Officer Aurora Cassle and Mayor's Assistant Den Maron must find out why. Their investigation reveals Egerton's long-forgotten history and long-buried secrets which generations of mayors have hidden from the public.Den and Aurora's research leads them to one conclusion; the only way to save their city – their people – is to return to the surface.To do so presents great risk to everyone. No one can really predict what awaits them on the surface after four centuries – wars, disease, predators. Most are willing to take the risk, but some don't want life in Egerton to change at all and do what they can to ensure no one leaves.The fight to return to the surface comes at a cost no one expects.https://www.facebook.com/DarleneOakleyAuthorhttps://nextleveleditingandtranscription.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

First, we talk to The Indian Express' Sophiya Mathew about vehicular emissions in Delhi and how much they contribute to the pollution in NCR. She shares how after stubble burning, vehicular emissions are the major cause for pollution, the scale of the problem and how the government plans on dealing with it. Next, we talk to The Indian Express' Anonna Dutt about a study released last week according to which uranium has been found in samples of breast milk collected from mothers in Bihar. While medical professionals are saying its not something that is concerning, Anonna shares details of the study and why the medical professionals are saying so. (10:50)Lastly, we talk about Pakistan's remarks on the Ram Temple in Ayodhya and India's response to the same. (22:13)Hosted by Niharika NandaProduced by Niharika Nanda, and Shashank BhargavaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar 

In another episode that was already released as a video overnight for our Patreon backers, Ben and Tumaini wrap up what was a very busy Saturday in the world of tennis, including three simultaneous finals. We start with the WTA Finals in Riyadh, where Elena Rybakina won a very high-quality, high-level tournament that still looked small. How is the WTA going in Saudi Arabia after two years? Should they extend their stay there? Read Tumaini's column on the state of the WTA for more. We then discuss the down-to-the-wire (down-to-the-netcord?) drama around the race to Turin, where Novak Djokovic made Lorenzo Musetti and Felix Auger-Aliassime sweat it out until the last possible moment before withdrawing from Turin. Was that fair or foul? We also discuss the newly announced "Battle of the Sexes" between Aryna Sabalenka and Nick Kyrgios, which we both think is a bad idea (but for a different perspective, read Ben's interview with the organizer, Stuart Duguid).  And then for a fun finish, Tumaini waxes lyrical about his love for 1 Point Slam, which is returning in Melbourne next year in a much bigger form.
