In this special episode, Whit joins Valerie Sizemore, co-leader of the grassroots organization StopAI, for a wide-ranging conversation about the growing influence of artificial intelligence and the risks they believe it poses to human life and society. Drawing on more than fifteen years of engagement with AI, Valerie explores concerns ranging from environmental impact, autonomous warfare, biosecurity, education, and the erosion of human skills and creativity to the increasingly intimate role AI plays in our relationships, psychology, and spirituality. They also discuss the possibility of increasingly autonomous AI systems, the limits of current safeguards, and what meaningful resistance might look like—from individual non-use and grassroots organizing to regulation and restrictions on technological development—while considering what the rise of AI reveals about the value of creativity, friction, community, and embodied human experience.Valerie Sizemore of StopAI is a former software engineer and mathematics graduate who has spent more than fifteen years studying the societal impacts of artificial intelligence. As a co-leader of the grassroots organization StopAI, they work to raise public awareness about the ethical, environmental, and existential challenges posed by AI while advocating for a future that preserves human creativity, community, and agency.

You can also see it on YouTube.Devin: What is your superpower?Jeffrey: But I do want to say the superpower is Being really good with names, and it's taken a lot of practice and many, many years of work, but being able to meet somebody, remember their name, make a connection, and see them anytime later and be able to call them out, remember their name instead of just being like, hey, buddy. Being able to call someone's name lets them know you see them, you hear them, you care about them, and they're important to you.Post-Hurricane Helene recovery in Western North Carolina needs capital that treats local entrepreneurs as builders, not charity cases. Jeffrey Kaplan, CEO of Optimist Ventures and Director of Venture Asheville, is helping make that possible with a new fund designed for Asheville's real economy.During this episode, Jeffrey explained how Venture Asheville grew out of the region's economic development work. The team had already planned to launch an accelerator and fund before Hurricane Helene. Then the storm hit. Assumptions changed. Fundraising changed. The community changed.Rather than step back, Jeffrey and his team pivoted. Optimist Ventures raised its first fund, invested in seven companies last year and is preparing to invest in 13 more.That matters because, as Jeffrey said, “net new job growth creation is coming out of small businesses.” He sees local entrepreneurship not as a side project but as core economic development. In a place better known for hospitality, food and beverage, health and wellness than high-growth startups, that shift is powerful.The fund pairs philanthropy with investment capital. Each participating company receives $50,000. Half is a grant. Half is structured through a Shared Profit Agreement note, or SPA Note, a new instrument Optimist Ventures created to avoid the limits of traditional grants, debt and equity.Jeffrey described the thesis this way: “Could we create a localized fund that wasn't a debt fund, that wasn't onerous equity, that would also have a built-in liquidity system to get returns to investors without strangling our founders, without forcing exits or acquisitions or IPOs?”The answer became a purpose-fit profit-sharing model. Companies repay from net profit over six years. The structure encourages founders to reinvest, take care of employees and grow sustainably instead of chasing a quick exit.Jeffrey made the impact plain: “Every dollar stays here in Asheville. Every dollar helps recovery. Every dollar is creating a job.”I love this model because it brings dignity and accountability together. Founders get capital and support. Philanthropists get meaningful local impact. Investors get a potential return tied to rebuilding a resilient economy.Optimist Ventures is also welcoming community investors through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign at ventureasheville.com. That makes this work even more exciting to me. It gives people who care about Asheville a chance to participate in the recovery not just as donors but as investors in the future of the community.tl;dr:Today's episode shows how Optimist Ventures blends grants and investment for Hurricane Helene recovery.Jeffrey explains the SPA Note, a profit-share model designed for resilient Main Street businesses.Today's episode highlights Asheville's choice to rebuild toward what can be, not just what was.Local investors can support recovery through regulated investment crowdfunding and learn more at ventureasheville.com.Jeffrey's superpower, remembering names, reminds us that dignity begins with seeing people.How to Develop Remembering Names As a SuperpowerJeffrey's superpower is remembering names. He told me names matter because they “make such an impression when you're trying to build a network and build community.” For Jeffrey, this is not a party trick. It is a practice of respect. He said, “Being able to call someone's name lets them know you see them, you hear them, you care about them, and they're important to you.” In his work, where social capital helps move philanthropy, investment and entrepreneurship together, remembering names becomes a tool for trust.Jeffrey especially practices this superpower with children. When he meets a friend's child or sees a kid at an event he is emceeing, he learns the child's name immediately, calls them out and invites them to help. He does this because kids need special attention and affirmation. He believes being seen by an adult can shape a child's self-esteem and sense of possibility. That simple act of remembering a name becomes a way to say, you matter here.Say the person's name back immediately after you hear it.Ask how to spell the name so you spend a few extra seconds with it.Visualize the letters of the person's name over their head.Repeat the name early in the conversation to build memory.Connect on LinkedIn or another appropriate platform soon after meeting.Make the name conversation playful by asking about nicknames, spelling or origins.Practice with everyone, including parents at school, kids at events and casual acquaintances.By following Jeffrey's example and advice, you can make remembering names a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileJeffrey Kaplan (he/him):CEO, Optimist VenturesAbout Optimist Ventures: Optimist Ventures is a post-Hurricane Helene economic recovery fund based in Western North Carolina. It pairs $50,000 in capital with a 14-week accelerator for capital-efficient, community-rooted growth, targeting companies with $150,000 to $2 million in revenue. The fund blends grant and investment capital through a new instrument it created called the SPA Note, a hybrid grant-plus-investment structure designed to fund founders in disaster-affected communities without the usual friction between philanthropic and investment capital.Website: optimistventures.coCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/VentureAVLOther URL: ventureasheville.comBiographical Information: Jeffrey Kaplan is CEO of Optimist Ventures and Director of Venture Asheville.

What is the minimum level of leadership an aerospace company needs to survive constant change? Because technical excellence is not enough anymore. Aerospace and aviation companies are being pushed to move faster, scale highly specialized teams, cut through bureaucracy, and make decisions before every variable is known. But many are still promoting great engineers, operators, and technical specialists into management with almost no preparation for the job they are actually being asked to do. Then leadership wonders why information gets trapped, accountability disappears, teams slow down, and high performers burn out. That is the problem behind Matt Gjertsen's concept of the Minimum Viable Manager. The name sounds modest. The standard is not. At a minimum, managers need to know how to build trust, set clear expectations, and give useful feedback. Without those fundamentals, all the talk about innovation, speed, ownership, and high performance is just noise. You cannot scale technical capability if the people leading it do not know how to align a team, push performance, or create the conditions for others to succeed. And this matters because the aerospace companies pulling ahead are not just hiring better talent. They are building cultures that can move. In this episode, I sit down with Matt, author of The Minimum Viable Manager and former Head of Training and Development at SpaceX. We talk about what aerospace companies can learn from SpaceX about hierarchy, ownership, and execution, and why technical expertise does not automatically produce strong leaders. We also discuss why companies that fail to develop managers alongside their workforce will eventually hit a wall. What You'll Discover In This Episode Why aerospace companies need a practical definition of effective management How trust, clear expectations, and useful feedback support technical team performance Why strong engineers and operators often struggle when they move into management What SpaceX can teach aerospace leaders about hierarchy, ownership, and execution Why fast-moving companies organize work around outcomes rather than inherited processes How leaders can push technical teams beyond their comfort zones without creating burnout Why responsibility must be accompanied by the authority to make decisions What separates aerospace companies adapting to change from those slowed by bureaucracy Why scaling the industry's technical workforce also requires developing capable managers About the Guest Matt Gjertsen is the founder of Built Leaders and the author of The Minimum Viable Manager. A former SpaceX learning and development leader, Air Force pilot, speaker, facilitator, and trainer, Matt helps innovative hard-tech companies build leaders capable of guiding teams through complex, high-stakes challenges.

This is what Leonard Peltier says. A thousand mile wide super storm is a hand-written note from the Mother Earth, writing in her language. Understand the message and act quickly. Each of us is carrying through our everyday life the activism for the protection of the life of the Earth. The DNA for this resistance has been disabled by rightwing religions, the industrial revolution, and by how the USA conquered the Earth and its human companions. Now is the time, here in the third year of a global heatwave and daily extinction of life forms.... to activate the resistance to Earth-killing that we have carried but has been suppressed. We Got To Move! Earthalujah!

We all want two things that can seem at odds with each other: to be our own person and to belong. We want to stand apart from the crowd, but we also want to be connected to it. When that balance gets out of whack, we either lose ourselves in tribalism or drift into isolation.My guest today says many of the problems in modern life stem from our inability to hold these two impulses in tension. His name is Luke Burgis, and he's the author of The One and the 99: Forging Identity in the Age of Social Contagion. Today on the show, Luke explains how becoming a true individual can give you the strength to be a part of a community. We discuss the difference between a solid self and a pseudo self — and what role families and rites of passage can play in moving us toward one or the other — why modern politics feels like a dysfunctional family, the dangers of performative religion, and much more.Resources Related to the PodcastLuke's previous appearances on the AoM podcast:Episode #714: Why Do We Want What We Want?Episode #910: Thick Desires, Political Atheism, and Living an Anti-Mimetic LifeThe True Believer by Eric HofferEducation of a Wandering Man by Louis L'AmourAoM Podcast #1,025: The Life and Legacy of Louis L'AmourAoM article with L'Amour's weekly to-do listsAoM article and podcast about C.S.

Miss Kay's memory issues are changing how her family spends time with her, but they definitely haven't stolen her joy. Al shares how Miss Kay lights up over simple moments like burger cookouts, popcorn movie nights, and a trip to see a patriotic documentary — and she still cracks a perfectly-timed joke when the moment calls for it. Jase and Al also revisit a few wild childhood memories from Phil's barroom years after an old George Jones song brings the past rushing back. The guys dig into the difference between trials and temptations, why God uses testing to mature us, and how Satan tries to twist vulnerable moments toward destruction.

A lot of Christian men treat fitness and health like optional side quests—something nice to care about after the important stuff is handled. But what if stewarding your body is actually part of your calling as a husband, father, and leader? Right behind spiritual and relational capital sits physical capital, and ignoring it eventually impacts everything else God has entrusted to you. In this episode, we talk honestly about the “dad bod” mindset, why physical health matters more than most Christian men want to admit, and some practical ways to start taking stewardship of your body seriously. Steven shares the conversation with his doctor that changed everything for him, and together we unpack how better health can help you show up stronger for your wife, your kids, and the work God has given you.

No other podcast has this! https://economist.com/TOE Roman Yampolskiy has spent two decades being right about things people wished he wasn't — and in this conversation, he's not here to scare you, but to be precise. He makes the case that AI alignment isn't merely unsolved but fundamentally under-defined: no agreed-upon values, no way to formalize them even if there were, and no mechanism for enforcing them on something smarter than its creators. His strongest argument isn't a doom scenario, it's that you cannot indefinitely control something smarter than you.

EXILES | LIVING AS OUTSIDERS FOR GOD'S KINGDOM This week Brian opens by challenging the idea that the only difference between a believer and an unbeliever is forgiveness. While forgiveness is real and glorious, Peter wants the church to understand something bigger: through the resurrection and the Spirit, followers of Jesus are a new humanity entirely. Born again through the living and enduring Word of God, they are not just pardoned sinners but a new kind of human being altogether. Brian calls the church to grow into that identity by craving Scripture, cutting sin out of the diet, and most importantly, loving one another deeply as the most powerful witness to a watching world. Exiles is a 12-week journey through 1 Peter looking at what it means to follow Jesus in a world where we increasingly feel like outsiders. Rather than seeing this tension as a problem, Scripture shows it is the normal shape of life for those who belong to God's kingdom. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are called to witness to His reign in the world through faithful presence, courageous love, and enduring hope. This series invites us to live as a distinct people whose lives point others to Jesus in a world that is not yet restored and made new.A New Kind Of Community1 Peter 1:22 - 2:3Brian Berger | Pastor of Life Discipleship 5.31.2026

In the military, a “gray man” refers to a service member who neither outperforms or underperforms his or her comrades. Someone who seamlessly fits into the group and gets the job done and doesn't get unwanted attention while doing it. In that line of work, that can be a talent. In today's story, we're talking about a man who made a career out of being unnoticed, whose entire personality could be described as “gray,” and yet, had a violent and hateful nature resting just under the surface. When all was said and done, two women would be dead and countless others would never feel safe in their homes again. Join us live at Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp in Equinunk, PA, September 10-13th!

The hicklib is usually a social outcast, a failson who needs a moral explanation for why he hates the community he never fit into. His resentment searches for a theory that will dignify his rage, and the progressive missionaries installed in local institutions are happy to provide one. The hicklib has become one of rural America's petty plagues. But as the value of college degrees collapses, a new breed is emerging: the fail-lib.

Harriet Clark's novel, “The Hill,” is one of the most anticipated works of fiction of the year. It's a story of a girl growing up visiting her mother, who is serving a life sentence in prison for a politically motivated crime. And although “The Hill” is a work of fiction, it follows the contours of Clark's own life closely: her mother is Judy Clark, who drove a getaway car after a robbery in which two police officers and a security guard were killed. One of “The Hill” 's enthusiastic admirers is Rachel Aviv, a staff writer at The New Yorker. She spoke with Clark about the power of fiction, her mother's life story, and the power of narrative when thinking about how to confront carceral systems. Further reading: “Harriet Clark's Début Is a New Kind of Coming-of-Age Novel,” by James Wood “The Trial of Gisèle Pelicot's Rapists United France and Fractured Her Family,” by Rachel Aviv New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday. Join host David Remnick as he discusses the latest in politics, news, and current events in conversation with political leaders, newsmakers, innovators, New Yorker staff writers, authors, actors, and musicians.
