The U.S. Small Business Administration's New Focus on Manufacturing

It's fair to say that with the story of Jason Vukovich — The Alaskan Avenger — we've been on quite the rollercoaster ride.From his origin story to his arrest and incarceration, it's undoubtedly a story that has sparked division. A story met with disapproval, admiration, and — in some respects — astonishment. However you look at it, there's no denying that Jason's story is unlike many, if any.We followed Jason as he fought for parole from a sentence of over 20 years for his attacks on three registered sex offenders. We were there when his sister received word of his failed attempt at parole, with authorities stating he'd have to wait five more years to go home.Then, only weeks later, came more news — he had won an appeal. And yet, his release continued to be delayed, pushed back time and time again… until he finally walked free.When I spoke to Jason upon his release, he told me he was focused on moving forward with his life and had begun building an online presence to connect with those who had followed his story. But it would be that very online presence that saw him put behind bars once again — following claims of a parole violation.Word quickly spread: some believed it meant he'd have to serve out the remainder of his sentence, while others suggested it was merely a 10-day “cool-down” period.After more than two weeks, Jason was again released — this time under stricter conditions — as he regained his focus and returned to the free world.And it's here that I find him now, as we sit down to discuss exactly what happened… and what's next for the man they call The Alaskan Avenger.You can find Jason on all social channels by searching The Alaskan Avenger.

Gareth Williams, MD of Hatfields Motor Group joins us again, in the second instalment of his two part interview. With the changes in Jaguar in recent years, Gareth and his team have had to adapt, he elaborates on  their new focus and their aims for the future.   Also, as Hatfields now offer Omoda & Jeacoo, Gareth is well placed to discuss with us, the future of established brands compared to the offering from China. Then finally, we look at electric vehicles and the opportunities they offer now and beyond. Here are the highlights: {00:47} Changes in Jaguar  {05:50} New Focus {12:12} Chinese Brands {21:09} Forward thinking {24:13} Don't say it, do it {26:50} The opportunities electric vehicles offer {39:36} You can't have responsibility without authority About Symco Training: Symco Training was founded in 2000 by Simon Bowkett and it was his belief that the business had to offer its clients something different. That difference was clear to Simon from his days in the dealership when he experienced many sales trainers who had all the answers, but were unable, unwilling or both to actually show the delegate how they could be implemented. It remains the ethos of the business today. You see, Symco only employ trainers that are committed to delivering not only in spiring and insightful training, but are equally as happy to demonstrate these skills and techniques with real customers in your own showroom. We believe in order for sales training to be effective and in Simon's words ‘real world', it needs to be tried and tested in the only place it matters the showroom floor. There is no room for theory when your goals are for your team to sell more cars, hours or parts and retain more profit. In dealerships around the world the focus applied by many of the sales executives is to try and sell a deal. Symco specialise in getting your teams to focus on selling themselves, the product and then supporting this with the deal. To find out more visit: www.symcotraining.co.uk

In this episode, we are going to explore a topic that I truly enjoy - workplace culture and wellbeing.

If you have any interest in workplace culture, this episode is definitely for you!

When the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) issued a paper in September setting out its position on the human element, its implications were clearly going to be far reaching. Its publication followed an IACS presentation in June to the Human Element Industry Group, which is made up of a number of maritime NGOs and it says that IACS' aims “to highlight and emphasise the importance of … human element aspects when developing new IACS requirements applicable to the ship and ship systems.” RINA's Secretary General Roberto Cazzulo currently chairs IACS' Council, giving the Italian organisation a particular significance in any discussion about its implications and, in this podcast, RINA's North Europe Region Senior Director for RINA's marine activities Fiorenzo Spadoni, puts IACS' approach into context, saying that it reflected significant industry changes driven by digitalisation, decarbonisation and increasingly complex ship systems. He also discussed whether these developments can help move the industry closer to net-zero emissions. “One critical factor in achieving net zero is the role of the human workforce” and by providing seafarers with skills and motivation to manage these technologies, “we are accelerating their adoption and the path toward net-zero,” he said.

In this insightful interview, Dr. Marty Makary speaks candidly about pressing issues within the U.S. healthcare system. He addresses how current debates often divert attention from core challenges, framing healthcare as a divisive landscape when the real focus should be on patient-centered care and meaningful provider support. Dr. Makary calls on policymakers and leaders to look past polarizing discussions and work toward reforms that prioritize quality, accessibility, and integrity in practice. Watch as he delves into the testimony of healthcare professionals and advocates who, for the first time, shared their insights directly with national leaders in a recent Senate hearing. This is a powerful moment for those committed to bridging the gap between healthcare policies and the actual needs of patients and providers. Join us for a closer look at what meaningful change could look like in our healthcare system. *Expert Featured* Martin Makary, MD, MPH X: @MartyMakary https://www.linkedin.com/in/martymakary/ _Blind Spots: When Medicine Gets It Wrong, and What It Means for Our Health_ : https://a.co/d/eQafyeh About us: Metabolic Mind is a non-profit initiative of Baszucki Group working to transform the study and treatment of mental disorders by exploring the connection between metabolism and brain health.
