ADVENT WEEK ONE: HOPEDecember 1 F. Douglas Powe Jr., PhDHope is a New RealityIsaiah 2:1-5He shall judge between the nations, and shall arbitrate for many peoples;they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learnwar any more. Isaiah 2:4Can you imagine a world where there are no wars? It does seem unimag-inable, especially since there is always a conflict happening someplace in theworld.In this text we read about the hope of one day the very weapons we use to doharm to one another become instruments of provision for one another. Ourswords will till the ground, and our spears will help us to catch fish.At first glance this seems unrealistic given what we have experiencedthroughout our lives. What catches my attention is in verse three when it talksabout God teaching us God's ways. This new reality is not something that wecan achieve ourselves but requires learning.It involves learning, for example, a new way of being with one another thatdoes not move toward violence. The good news is we already have a modelfor what this looks like from Jesus. The truth is it is even challenging for us asChristians to follow Jesus' model.Advent is a time when we should anticipate a new reality. This reality movesus closer toward God's intent for instruments of destruction to become instru-ments of provision. Our hope for this new reality as Christians should move usto action now. We should model Jesus' behavior as individuals and communi-ties of faith. One day we truly will say, “we no longer are training for war.” Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Recovery introduces us to a new reality — one we never expected, rarely feel ready for, and often resist at first. The old way of living was chaotic but familiar. The new way? Honest, spiritual, connected, and grounded. This shift isn't about pretending everything is great; it's about seeing life through new eyes. Pain hits different. Joy hits different. Responsibility hits different. And with that comes a new freedom, one built on truth instead of denial. Today we talk about stepping into that new reality — the one God, recovery, and the Steps keep pointing us toward — and what it means to leave the old one behind for good.

Most agencies try to fix pipeline by working harder, but not by working smarter.This conversation digs into why outbound has gotten tougher, what's changed in the last decade, and how agencies can build a healthier, more defensible acquisition motion. We cover the shift from brute-force outreach to signal-driven, trust-based systems, why TAM size changes everything, and how sales and marketing need to operate as a single unit for mid-market deals. It's a clear look at the mechanics behind winning in a crowded outreach landscape. Michael Maximoff is the co-founder of Belkins and the team behind Folderly. He's spent more than a decade solving the same problems agencies face today: building predictable pipeline in a crowded, trust-heavy market, balancing marketing and sales investment, and adapting outbound to a world that no longer responds to direct pitches.Why cold outreach used to work with simple tools and high volume, and why that era is overHow inbox competition jumped from ~100 cold pitches/month per decision-maker to 800+ todayWhy small TAMs require a different playbook and more precision, not more activityThe importance of costly signals, warm intros, and touch-point-driven credibility instead of direct pitchesHow sales and marketing must operate in tandem to create “surround sound” and increase conversion likelihoodWhy mid-market agencies should hire full-cycle AEs who can build their own book of businessThe danger of giving SDRs outdated brute-force mandates in a world where the role is now a technical, marketing-adjacent functionHow deeper integrations (HubSpot, Salesforce, Clay) are reshaping outreach, personalization, and data orchestrationWhy agencies must choose the channel they have a true “genetic advantage” for.Links & ResourcesBelkins — https://belkins.ioFolderly — https://folderly.comMichael on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/maximoff 

The New Reality for Nonprofit Funding For decades, nonprofits have relied heavily on a mix of grants, donations, and government funding to sustain their missions. But as global philanthropy evolves, those traditional sources are becoming less predictable. According to The Nonprofit Finance Fund's 2024 State of the Nonprofit Sector Report, nearly 56% of nonprofit leaders said funding uncertainty is their biggest operational challenge. On a recent episode of the Nonprofit MBA Podcast, host Stephen Halasnik and guest Joe Reed, founder of the Exponent Group and SolveLine, discussed an urgent question: What happens when your biggest grant disappears? Their answer—nonprofits must begin to think like startups, diversifying income streams and even launching mission-aligned for-profit ventures to ensure long-term impact. "We don't have the luxury to not have this conversation anymore," Reed emphasized. "Healthy nonprofits must start thinking creatively about how they generate revenue."  

In this episode, Jordi Visser joins the show to discuss how exponential technologies, shifting demographics, and rising wealth concentration are quietly reshaping the economic landscape in ways traditional macro models can't capture. He hints at why AI, deflation, and political incentives may matter far more than the usual data releases and how Bitcoin fits into this evolving world.

In this episode of Truth Works, Jessica sits down with Anna Lundström, the CHRO of Spotify, for one of the most honest and forward-looking conversations on the show.Anna and Jessica share a rare parallel — both grew up inside iconic companies (Netflix and Spotify), both rose into the CHRO seat, and both had to navigate the shift from being seen as “the kid who joined early” to becoming the strategic leader responsible for how the entire company operates.Together, they unpack:The New Reality of Leadership in the AI EraWhy AI is not a short-lived moment but a permanent shift every employee must prepare forSpotify's approach to humanizing AI rather than creating fear around itHow they drove near-100% AI adoption by focusing on learning, tools, and experimentationThe cross-functional AI model Anna built with Product and Platform to lead transformationWhat “future-ready” really means for employees right nowReinventing Culture at ScaleHow Spotify evolved its operating rhythm with a true “Execution Team” (E-Team)Why the company's previous values took them to this point—but new values are needed to take them forwardThe shift from startup to scale-up to global operatorThe three new cultural anchors:One TeamMake It HappenUse Human JudgmentThe Reality of Being a Modern CHROCarrying roles that did not formally exist before: HR strategist, de facto chief medical officer, chief diversity officer, and now “chief AI officer”The pressure and responsibility of being the visible face of people, culture, and transformationWhy deep technical understanding of every HR function is now a leadership advantageHow to operate and make decisions in a world where no one has all the answersFor Employees Asking: “How Do I Influence Culture From Below?”Anna shares practical guidance for individual contributors who feel stuck beneath stagnant cliques, unclear values, or top-down programs that do not translate into real behavioral change. She explores how to use HR partners, leaders, feedback channels, and thoughtful communication to influence culture from the ground up.Why This Episode MattersSpotify touches hundreds of millions of people every day, but the real transformation is happening inside the company as it rewrites how work, leadership, and AI coexist.

In this episode of Cosmosis, Kelly and Jay sit down with someone who has become a true kindred spirit on their path: Daniel Noah, co-founder of SpectreVision, filmmaker, experiencer, and the creative force behind the new High Strangeness comic series. This conversation moves through the deep waters where creativity, anomalous experience, and vocation meet. Daniel opens up about his lifelong relationship with horror and the supernatural, his unexpected awakening as an experiencer, and how that realization reshaped both his inner world and his creative life. He shares what it meant to come out publicly as an experiencer, the responsibility he now feels to others on the path, and why art—and vulnerability—are central to making sense of the anomalous. Together, Kelly, Jay, and Daniel explore: How SpectreVision grew from an indie genre studio into a multiformat home for creators working at the edges of experience Why paranormal phenomena resist traditional narrative structure—and what that means for artists The surprising synchronicities behind Daniel's work on High Strangeness Creativity as a channel for contact, transmission, and the “central source” John Keel wrote about The emotional reality of being a public experiencer, and the mission that quietly forms around those called into this work Daniel's reflections on SpectreVision's newest film, Rabbit Trap, and its unsettling, initiatory portrait of fairy loreYou'll also hear about Kelly's essay on synchronicity for issue #3 of High Strangeness, the story that changed the trajectory of her entire life, and how collaborative creativity has opened new doors for all three of them. This is one of our most intimate and expansive conversations—an exploration of what happens when artists stop compartmentalizing the anomalous and instead allow it to shape their work, their worldview, and their calling.

Since early 2025, federal agencies have shifted their research priorities, cutting or freezing grants that many UNC researchers depend on. Those changes have forced researchers across campus to adjust their projects, rewrite proposals and search for new funding. Professor of Nutrition at the Gillings School of Public Health Alice Ammerman describes how the shake-up has disrupted her community-based research. Senior Associate Vice Chancellor for Research Andy Johns explains how these federal shifts are reshaping UNC's research enterprise and how the University is responding. 111 grants were terminated, leading to $38 million of lost funding as of Sept. 2, 2025. Alice Ammerman was interviewed Sept. 3. Andy Johns was interviewed Sept. 2. Audio story by Kshitiz Adhikari. Produced by Amelie Fawson. Photo by Amina Williams.

Hire Yourself Podcast with Pete GilfillanThe corporate ladder is disappearing. In this episode, Pete Gilfillan breaks down the realities of today's corporate world, where automation, AI, and restructuring are flattening organizations and eliminating the traditional path to executive growth.If you've spent decades climbing toward leadership, this episode will make you rethink what “upward mobility” really means and why more executives are taking control through franchise ownership.In this episode, Pete discusses:1. The First Rung Is GoneAI and automation are eliminating entry-level positions—the very roles that once drove corporate advancement. As companies flatten, fewer opportunities remain to move up from within.2. Skills Now Matter More Than TitlesThe era of “paying your dues” is over. Advancement depends on performance and specialized skills, not tenure. Executives must now prove their worth in measurable ways or risk being replaced.3. Flattened Organizations, Fewer PromotionsAs technology streamlines operations, layers of management disappear. With fewer rungs on the ladder, career growth becomes limited—and often unpredictable.4. Job Hopping and the Rise of Boundaryless CareersExecutives aren't waiting for promotions that may never come. Many are building multiple income streams—franchises, consulting, real estate—to reclaim control of their future.5. Market Volatility and the End of Job StabilityRestructuring, mergers, and cost-cutting are the new normal. The ladder no longer represents security—it represents risk. The smartest executives are building their own ladders through business ownership.Key Takeaways:The traditional corporate ladder is collapsing from both ends.AI and automation are shrinking entry-level and mid-level opportunities.Career growth now depends on adaptability and self-direction.Owning a business gives you a new ladder—one you control.Franchising offers a structured, proven way to achieve that independence.“The corporate ladder isn't stable—it's disappearing. The smartest executives are building their own ladders.” — Pete GilfillanCONNECT WITH PETE GILFILLAN:

In this special episode, recorded live at the International Remote Viewing Association Conference, Kelly and Jay sit down for an intimate fireside conversation on one of the most provocative questions in anomalous research: what connects remote viewing and the UFO phenomenon? Bringing together two communities that rarely share a stage, they explore how both challenge the limits of consensus reality and reveal the deeper mysteries of consciousness. From the transpersonal nature of contact to the risks and revelations of psychic perception, the discussion dives into what happens when we stop looking up for answers and start looking within. Along the way, they talk about creative integrity in anomalous storytelling, the role of imagination in perception, and why they believe that remote viewing may be one of the most grounded ways to approach the unknown.  Music for Cosmosis is by Michael Rubino.

What happens when the search for truth leads you past the point of no return? In the first episode of Cosmosis: Origins, Kelly and Jay step out of the studio and back into the field—returning to the places where their lives first collided with the unknown. Through moments of honesty and reflection, they revisit the experiences that shattered their understanding of reality and the friendship that was forged in the fire of shared initiation. From childhood encounters with luminous beings to life-altering contact events in adulthood, Origins traces the unlikely path that brought them together—and the moral injuries, secrets, and strange grace that came in the aftermath. As they leave behind the noise of UFO discourse to follow the signal deep into the Ohio River Valley, they ask what it means to rebuild belief from the ruins of certainty. This is where the next chapter of Cosmosis begins.Music for Cosmosis is by Michael Rubino.

For the last century, physics has been treading along the paths set by the same two theories--quantum theory and general relativity--and, let's face it, it's getting pretty boring. Most scientists are simply chasing decimal points in laboratories, unable to explore the theories at large scales, where serious discrepancies could emerge. The situation is a lot like the one physics was in in 1890, right before Planck, Einstein, and Bohr blew the roof off Newtonian physics. As Vlatko Vedral argues in Portals to a New Reality: Five Pathways to the Future of Physics (Basic Books, 2025), that means we are on the brink of a revolution. Vedral shows how quantum information theory has opened radically new avenues for experiments that could upend physics. They can sound very strange--one essentially involves entangling a human with Schrödinger's cat--but they lay bare elements of our theories that are particularly problematic, such as the widespread belief that nothing truly exists unless it is observed. At present these experiments are thought experiments, albeit fascinating ones. But nothing, save inertia and a lack of ambition, stands in our way.

In this conversation, Dr.Vlatko Vedral discusses the complexities of quantum mechanics and its implications for our understanding of reality. He explores the stagnation in physics, the importance of thought experiments, and the potential for new discoveries through technological advancements. Vlatko emphasizes the need for adventurous research and the role of quantum information in shaping future scientific inquiries. He also speculates on the transformative possibilities of quantum technologies and their impact on human perception.Takeaways Quantum mechanics challenges our understanding of reality. The observer effect is central to quantum mechanics. Physics has been stagnant with two main theories for over a century. Technological advancements are paving the way for new experiments. Thought experiments can guide genuine scientific discovery. The integration of quantum mechanics and general relativity is crucial. Quantum information theory expands our understanding of computation. New theories may emerge from the intersection of quantum mechanics and technology. The perception of reality may evolve with quantum technologies. Funding and research approaches need to be more adventurous.Chapters 00:00 Exploring Quantum Reality 04:48 The Stagnation of Physics 08:41 The Clouds of Uncertainty 12:46 Thought Experiments and Their Power 16:01 Five Experiments for the Future 24:54 Technological Feasibility of Experiments 28:27 Quantum Theory and Its Foundations 34:08 The Role of Quantum Information 39:35 Imagining New Realities Through PortalsFollow Vlatko on LinkedIn, Substack, and find their new book here.Subscribe to Breaking Math wherever you get your podcasts.Follow Breaking Math on Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Website, YouTube, TikTokFollow Autumn on Twitter, BlueSky, and InstagramBecome a guest hereemail: breakingmathpodcast@gmail.com

[3:39] On November 17th, she will present "Talk ERM to Me: How to Get and Keep Attention from Management." On November 6th, she will be moderating the HUB International Webinar "Geopolitical Whiplash — Building Resilient Global Risk Programs in an Unstable World." [3:59] Registration links for the conference and the webinar are in this episode's show notes. [4:04] On with the show! We're all about ERM in this episode, and I wanted to give you all a chance to get to know Chrystina a little bit, in case you want to meet with her virtually, in person, or both. Let's get to it! [4:14] Interview! Chrystina Howard, welcome to RIMScast! [4:22] We will see more of Chrystina soon, on November 17th and 18th, in Seattle, Washington, at the RIMS ERM Conference 2025. We're going to talk more about that in a bit. [4:39] Chrystina Howard spent a couple of decades with the Willis Towers Watson organization, where she looked after ERM consulting. She built out a platform and rolled it out, that is still going strong globally. [4:53] Chrystina says she was fortunate to come to the HUB International organization, with a great culture, where she kick-started an ERM Consulting Division. She's having a blast, helping clients get what they need in terms of risk management. [5:14] Chrystina says that when building the ERM Consultancy, she had a lot of great folks to work with and two decades under her belt of developing processes and models. She was set to go as soon as she arrived at HUB. [5:31] Chrystina says they have great specialization, and she is able to get into a lot of industry risk information that she may not have known, to build out the breadth of the consultancy. She helps people learn what ERM is, how it's used, how it works, and why people are interested in it. [5:53] Chrystina says, We're just guns blazing, now! [6:09] Chrystina says geopolitical risks are definitely at the forefront for organizations. This includes economic volatility around the globe, tariffs, and import/export regulations between countries, that will call the shots for some time.  [6:27] Chrystina says right along with geopolitical risks will be the effective use of AI. There are security concerns with AI. Some people are not comfortable with it. We're moving into a phase where we've got to put AI to work for us. How can we do that effectively and securely? [6:44] Chrystina says a lot of industries will have staffing challenges, particularly skilled workers. It will hit the healthcare industry pretty hard, along with agriculture, and construction. [6:58] Chrystina says she is seeing a bit of a resurgence in ESG risks. Despite the regulatory environment, people are keen to make sure that companies are being good environmental stewards, treating employees fairly, and behaving as the public thinks is appropriate. [7:41] AI will make data compilation and claims processing faster. Chrystina has been reading of physicians and medical practitioners using AI as a background double-check when they're working toward a diagnosis. [7:58] With its access to information, AI might ask, Your diagnosis is probably right, but did you consider this? We hope this will enhance the diagnostic process, and not take over. [8:11] There is a concern that there's pressure to use AI tools because your colleagues are using them. If you rely on it too much, that can also backfire. We're going to have to strike a balance. [8:40] Chrystina is an optimist when it comes to AI. AI tools can make shorter work of a lot of things in ERM, like scenario analysis; having a tool that will allow you to see multiple scenarios that maybe individuals couldn't come up with on their own, and make decisions from them. [9:06] Chrystina mentions automation for reporting and metric updates. Successful organizations that have the resources can use AI in ERM training, policy updates, and even collecting information through surveys and interviews. [9:23] Enhancing dashboards is a big focus going forward, getting a robust database that gives alerts and keeps everybody up to date. [9:35] Justin mentions crises of the past few years. The Baltimore Key Bridge collapsed a year ago, and we don't hear about it anymore. Justin asks, How can ERM leaders keep resilience and risk appetite aligned with long-term strategy, rather than reactive short-term fixes. [10:00] Chrystina thinks ERM, by nature, is focused on preparation and then response. It takes into account "left of loss." Before the incident occurs, how can we prepare ourselves the best and implement plans should something happen?  [10:16] Chrystina has seen organizations widely embrace ERM more readily following the successful navigation of crises. [10:24] It would behoove ERM leaders to seize that opportunity and make a great connection between the protection and preparation that ERM brought through the crisis to the strategic success of the organization. [10:40] ERM leaders may have to campaign a little bit still, but it's something they can point out to executives, and the selling of ERM will be a lot easier. [10:53] Quick Break! RISKWORLD 2026 will be in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, from May 3rd through the 6th.

Visit RIMS.org/Advocacy for more information and updates and to register. [12:02] Let's return to our interview with Chrystina Howard! [12:08] Chrystina Howard is the ERM Leader of the Complex Risk Practice at Hub International. Justin asks Chrystina about ERM leaders needing to campaign. Chrystina is one of the featured presenters at the RIMS ERM Conference 2025 in Seattle, Washington, November 17th and 18th. [12:58] Chrystina's foundational session is called "Talk ERM to Me: How to Get and Keep Attention from Management." It is a solo session. She likes to be at the controls! [14:09] Chrystina says speaking about risk to management is a perennial struggle. One of the top questions she gets is how to translate ERM for the C-Suite so they understand the value of the work. [14:21] As risk management professionals, we often get excited about details that might not capture management's attention. [14:29] We have to think about things from the perspective of a CEO and a CFO. What things are important to them? What are they keeping an eye on? How does this relate to the bottom line? Connect those things. Connect risk management to strategy. [14:45] Demonstrate how the protection and preparation of things like Enterprise Risk Management support the execution of corporate strategy. When you're talking to the C-Suite, you've got to hit the high points, quick, like an elevator speech. [15:00] Link positive impacts of risk management to things that the C-Suite is focused on. Grab attention with things that are on their minds, like growth, M&A, performance volatility, how we're doing in the market, how these things play out, and how to help minimize volatility. [15:20] Chrystina says we see a lot of interest from private equity in the strategic business practice of ERM. That's a good thing for risk professionals to keep in mind as they campaign for ERM. There are other people who are keen to know about it. [15:48] ERM gets alerts about negative trends, but it's important to keep the positive news coming too about how they helped create a solution, minimize a threat, and protected the organization so that operations can continue and the strategy can go forward. [16:33] Chrystina says Streamline things. She approaches ERM from a practical and realistic perspective. She doesn't like a lot of jargon or a lot of metrics. She likes simple, streamlined stuff that everybody can get on board with. [16:51] Chrystina tells people, Don't boil the ocean. Participants and risk owners are going to get bogged down if they've got too many things to keep track of. Set up tiers of risks. Start at the top. What can we affect over the next year or two years? [17:10] Keep it practical and realistic. Limit the amount of information you collect. If you start adding different metrics and definitions, that can be a slippery slope. You have to train people how to do it. They have to remember what it's supposed to be. And there are updates to fill out! [17:33] Think about how often you're asking people to update. Every so often, have a blank-sheet risk assessment. Limit how often you do updates throughout the year. [18:14] Reporting intervals should be more than twice a year. Strict ERM practitioners are going to be monitoring risks and looking at the dashboard and the risk register, preparing all the time to report to management. [18:34] Risk owners are an important source of information. All of those folks already have a job; maybe a job and a half. We have to be careful about how we engage them so that we get robust information and we don't overwhelm them. [18:50] When we do updates, they should be limited but powerful. These are the big things that you want executives to know about. Once a year, when you do your board presentation, tell them these things are going great and you want to update them on these other things. Keep it simple. [19:19] One Final Break! As many of you know, the RIMS ERM Conference 2025 will be held on November 17th and 18th in Seattle, Washington. We recently had ERM Conference Keynote Speaker Dan Chuparkoff on the show. [19:36] He is back, just to deliver a quick message about what you can expect from his keynote on "AI and the Future of Risk." Dan, welcome back to RIMScast! [19:47] Dan says, Greetings, RIMS members and the global risk community! I'm Dan Chuparkoff, AI expert and the CEO of Reinvention Labs. I'm delighted to be your opening keynote on November 17th, at the RIMS ERM Conference 2025 in Seattle, Washington. [20:02] Artificial Intelligence is fueling the next era of work, productivity, and innovation. There are challenges in navigating anything new. This is especially true for risk management, as enterprises adapt to shifting global policies, economic swings, and a new generation of talent. [20:20] We'll have a realistic discussion about the challenges of preparing for the future of AI. To learn more about my keynote, "AI and the Future of Risk Management," and how AI will impact Enterprise Risk Management for you, listen to my episode of RIMScast at RIMS.org/Dan. [20:39] Be sure to register for the RIMS ERM Conference 2025, in Seattle, Washington, on November 17th and 18th, by visiting the Events page on RIMS.org. I look forward to seeing you all there. [20:50] Justin thanks Dan and looks forward to seeing him again on November 17th and hearing all about the future of AI and risk management! [20:58] Let's Conclude Our Interview with Chrystina Howard! [21:05] Justin reminds the listeners, Before we get to see Chrystina live at the ERM Conference 2025, she will be moderating a RIMS Webinar sponsored by HUB, titled "Geopolitical Whiplash — Building Resilient Global Risk Programs in an Unstable World." [21:23] Chrystina says everyone is talking about this, and she's excited to get some great experts about it on the line. Justin notes that over the past few years, geopolitical volatility has intensified with trade wars, sanctions, and supply chain disruption. [21:54] Chrystina says there are so many, and they are interrelated. In conflict areas, everything gets turned upside-down. On a global basis, the U.S. economy has broad-reaching impacts. She would keep an eye on import/export trends. This global trade issue is so volatile and dynamic. [22:22] You cannot sleep on the changing regulations around the world. An important subset related to global trade is increasing requirements for in-country hiring and procurement. That will affect a lot of people with respect to where we grow things and get raw materials and tech. [22:51] Chrystina doesn't think we've seen the end of supply chain disruption. She mentions extreme weather from climate change. A large component of the outcome of climate change is energy security. She doesn't think we're clear of pandemics, either. [23:11] Justin says Hilary Tuttle, Editor of RIMS Risk Management magazine, told him something a year ago that has stayed with him. "We're not in post-pandemic anymore. We're in post-height-of-the-pandemic." It's still here. It's never going away. [24:11] Chrystina says there is no substitute for local knowledge and experience. The best way to approach a Global ERM Program across all of your jurisdictions is for ERM leaders to have deputies in each of the jurisdictions. [24:30] These deputies should have a very keen sense of the landscape in their region in terms of policy, risk, interactions, and trade, as well as an understanding of the big picture across the global organization. [24:46] Those people will be key to develop in all of your locations to support the ERM function. They have a job. It doesn't mean hiring extra staff. You can generally find people with that level of expertise locally, with a good understanding of the big picture, within your existing personnel. [25:15] Making that connection with individuals who know exactly what's happening there on the ground is crucial. Chrystina says that is the very best solution. [25:49] Chrystina says there are a number of stakeholders for any organization, internal and external. Chrystina is seeing favorable views from insurers toward companies and organizations that have implemented ERM globally. [26:07] Other key stakeholders also want assurances that there are plans in place to protect them. This goes back to the inception of ERM when there was serious mismanagement at companies like WorldCom and Enron. [26:23] Everybody's board was asking who's minding the store? This isn't going to happen to us, right? [26:27] All of this risk is ultimately going to roll up to your reputation. That's difficult but not impossible to quantify. You can demonstrate how ERM plans address global threats in an anecdotal fashion. That will communicate real value and put people's minds at ease. [26:52] You can do that in a country-specific way with partners in the countries to communicate the nuances, and give you information about how things work in there, why the risk is a problem, what are the drivers, what are the vulnerabilities, and how might this take place? [27:19] That session will be on November 6th. Chrystina will moderate it with Eric Howie, the Vice President for Complex Risk in Canada, and Will Mule, Global Risk Solutions Practice Leader for HUB. For that session, Chrystina asks listeners to send in their questions ahead of time. [28:00] The links to both the ERM Conference 2025 and the Webinar, "Geopolitical Whiplash — Building Resilient Global Risk Programs in an Unstable World," are in this episode's show notes. [28:12] Chrystina, it's been lovely to see you again. I can't wait to see you virtually and in person. [28:21] Special thanks again to Chrystina Howard for joining us. Remember to register for the HUB November 6th Webinar, "Geopolitical Whiplash — Building Resilient Global Risk Programs in an Unstable World," that she will be moderating.

The prevailing theme of our discussion centers on the persistent and multifaceted impact of tariffs within the furniture industry, a subject that has dominated conversations at the recent High Point Market. As we delve into the intricacies of this evolving landscape, we observe that suppliers are exhibiting remarkable creativity in response to the challenges posed by the tariff environment, thereby ensuring the continuity of business operations. Notably, consumer preferences are shifting, with an increasing demand for functionality, value, and sustainable practices influencing purchasing decisions. Domestic manufacturers are finding unexpected advantages, as tariffs have prompted a resurgence of interest in American-made goods, thereby narrowing the cost disparity between imported and locally produced items. Furthermore, we explore transformative real estate developments, such as the innovative conversion of the former Red Lion Hotel into a mixed-use space, which epitomizes the broader evolution of our industry, extending beyond mere furniture to encompass strategic real estate initiatives that aim to rejuvenate the market's very core.The dialogue presented in this episode of Furniture Industry News intricately navigates the complexities of the furniture market, particularly through the lens of the current tariff environment. The discussion commences with an examination of the pervasive influence tariffs exert on the industry, compelling suppliers to recalibrate their strategies in response to evolving consumer expectations. It is noted that while the tariff situation introduces formidable challenges, it simultaneously catalyzes a renaissance for domestic producers, thereby leveling the competitive playing field. This duality of challenge and opportunity is underscored by insights from industry leaders who recognize a burgeoning consumer preference for domestically manufactured goods, spurred by an increased awareness of sustainability and a desire to support local economies.Takeaways: The current tariff situation continues to foster a dynamic and challenging business environment for furniture suppliers. There is a notable shift in consumer preferences towards furniture that offers both functionality and genuine value. Domestic producers are experiencing a resurgence in consumer interest due to the competitive advantages presented by tariffs. The transformation of the former Red Lion Hotel into a mixed-use space exemplifies real estate's growing importance in the furniture industry. Bernhardt Furniture is adapting to the modern consumer by combining traditional craftsmanship with innovative design elements.

In this episode, Kelly and Jay recount an extraordinary night at the International Remote Viewing Association conference in Cloudcroft, New Mexico—one that began as a simple group experiment in spoon bending and ended with a display of unexplained aerial activity over the nearby White Sands Missile Range. As dozens of participants focused their attention around a bonfire, cutlery softened and twisted in their hands—just as amber lights began moving across the desert sky in ways that defied conventional motion. The synchronicity between the two events raised unsettling questions about consciousness, matter, and the possible feedback loop between human intention and the phenomenon itself. Kelly and Jay examine that night moment by moment, reflecting on its implications for remote viewing, psychokinesis, and the broader study of anomalous events. Along the way, they discuss: The history of spoon bending and PK (psychokinesis) experiments, from Jack Houck's “PK parties” to government research programs. The atmosphere and experiments at the IRVA conference, including conversations with legendary remote viewers like Lyn Buchanan, Paul H. Smith, and Dale Graff The simultaneous UAP activity observed near White Sands and its uncanny timing with the group's collective experiment How belief, skepticism, and shared attention can shape reality—and why documenting the anomalous is never just about evidence, but about participation. This episode invites listeners to consider the possibility that consciousness is not a passive observer of the world—but an active participant in its unfolding.

Reality Check, The Spectator's new data-driven show hosted by economics editor Michael Simmons, kicks off with a big name: Arthur Laffer. The man who taught Reagan to cut taxes tells Michael why Britain's economy is 'disappearing', why the Bank of England shouldn't exist, and why he still believes low taxes – and a little optimism – can send Britain 'to the moon and the stars.'

In this special episode of Cosmosis, Kelly and Jay return from the International Remote Viewing Association Conference in Cloudcroft, New Mexico—where they spent a week immersed in the world of psychic espionage, anomalous perception, and frontier consciousness research. Surrounded by legends like Lyn Buchanan, Dale Graff, and Paul H. Smith, they were reminded of what drew them to this mystery in the first place: the humbling realization that reality is far stranger, and far more beautiful, than we imagine. Recorded live at the IRVA conference, this episode features a captivating talk from Paul H. Smith, retired U.S. Army Major and one of the original remote viewers from the Stargate Program—America's once-classified psychic espionage unit. Smith traces the deep and tangled relationship between UFOs and remote viewing, revealing how intelligence operatives and scientists like Ingo Swann, Hal Puthoff, and Pat Price used psychic perception to probe the mysteries of the phenomenon. From secret lunar targets and underground bases to the blurred boundary between consciousness and the unknown, Smith's stories bridge Cold War history and the edges of human perception. Whether you're new to remote viewing or steeped in its lore, this episode offers a rare, firsthand perspective from one of the few who lived it. Music for Cosmosis is by Michael Rubino.

Listen now on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube.—In our conversation, we discuss:* Why traditional org charts and career ladders are breaking down and what that means for researchers and designers.* How AI and startup culture are reshaping roles, shrinking teams, and pushing senior-level decisions onto mid-level professionals.* Why most people feel unprepared for their new responsibilities and how to close the gap without waiting for formal mentorship.* How to build your own “board of directors” through small acts of generosity and curiosity.Some takeaways:* Org charts are collapsing and it's changing everything. Many companies, especially in tech, are shrinking their teams while still aiming for scale. That means fewer senior leaders and more ICs making high-stakes decisions without traditional support. The result: mid-level professionals find themselves thrown into strategy roles they never trained for. This indicates a shift in how companies operate at their core.* There's no playbook for where we're headed. You can't Google your way out of the complexity of hybrid roles. When someone's a lead on paper but making director-level calls with no mentorship, the usual advice doesn't cut it. People need better access to real conversations and fast feedback loops. Mindaugas recommends building your own crew of people to talk things through, not just reading another Medium post.* The people who navigate change best aren't trying to be the smartest in the room. They're collecting diverse perspectives, asking for honest takes, and updating their opinions as they learn. In a noisy world of LinkedIn hot takes, this kind of thoughtful input often comes from quiet backchannels. Building those backchannels takes intention, not perfection.* Don't start with the ask. Start with curiosity. One of the best ways to build strong professional relationships is to reach out with zero agenda. A quick note saying “I appreciated your talk/post/article” stands out precisely because nobody does it anymore. When you do that over time, you create a trail of goodwill so when the time comes for an ask, you're not a stranger. Mindaugas shares how this approach helped him build a global network from scratch.* Mid-level is now the pressure point of modern orgs. Senior ICs are being handed business-critical decisions without context, coaching, or peers to learn from. Community matters as a practical scaffolding for decision-making and finding those people is the key to helping you get to your next level, and push through that mid-level ceilingWhere to find Mindaugas:* LinkedInStop piecing it together.

Artificial intelligence is transforming education, and compliance is no exception. In this episode, we discuss how AI is influencing Title IX and Title VI work, from investigations and training to how students search for information about their rights. We begin with a look behind the scenes at ICS, including updates on community partner renewals, new training opportunities, and upcoming Title VI Coordinator courses. From there, we explore three key questions: How is AI changing where students and staff find compliance resources? Can AI tools safely support Coordinators and investigators in their daily work? And how might parties or advisors use AI in Title IX cases? Throughout, we emphasize the importance of accuracy, accessibility, and oversight, reminding listeners that human judgment and empathy must remain at the core of every compliance process. Tune in for practical ways to navigate AI's growing role in education. Key Points From This Episode: Behind the scenes: The busy renewal season for ICS and Community Partners. Popular resources and tools available to ICS Community Partners. Details of our spring training calendar, including the “Compliance Core Four” courses. Live training in Dallas covering compliance essentials for K–12. The growing relevance of AI in Title IX and Title VI compliance. Three focus areas: opportunity and risk, student access, and advisor use. How AI is changing where students and staff search for resources. The risk of misinformation when AI can't locate school policies. Steps for improving website accessibility and plain-language content. How AI tools can support coordinators through transcription and summarization. Guardrails for safe and ethical AI use in compliance work. Risks of bias, overgeneralization, inaccuracy, and loss of context in AI outputs. How parties and advisors may be using AI to prepare Title IX cases. Potential fairness and confidentiality challenges posed by AI-assisted work. Why human judgment, empathy, and expertise remain central to compliance. Practical takeaways for preparing your institution for AI's growing role.

In this episode, Mike is joined by Chappell to discuss Tiffany "New York" Pollard's newest reality show, 'Slayers: Wheel of Fate,' coming to OutTV on October 8.

In this episode, Kelly and Jay revisit the groundbreaking work of John Keel, one of the most influential and controversial figures in UFO history. Known for Operation Trojan Horse and The Mothman Prophecies, Keel pushed beyond the limits of conventional ufology to propose ideas that remain provocative more than 50 years later. They explore both the human story of Keel—the journalist, traveler, and relentless investigator—and the radical frameworks he left behind for making sense of high strangeness. Along the way, Kelly and Jay connect Keel's legacy to today's debates, government narratives, and their own upcoming fieldwork. Highlights include: Keel's unique approach: using news clipping services and personal witness interviews to identify patterns across thousands of reports. His skepticism toward the extraterrestrial hypothesis and why he suspected UFOs were closer to home than another planet. The “paraphysical hypothesis” and Keel's concept of the super-spectrum, where UFOs and entities may be part of a hidden ecology overlapping our own. Insights into window areas—locations where high strangeness clusters—and how this connects to modern hotspots. The role of storytelling, control mechanisms, and myth-making in shaping how humanity perceives the phenomenon. Why Keel's outsider perspective continues to challenge both researchers and experiencers today. Music for Cosmosis is by Michael Rubino.
