We talk beefs (beeves?), dig into Internet drama, and have fun. The NBA is now a 365-day league and it's never been more present in pop culture. From Kevin Durant's burner accounts to LeBron taking his talents anywhere to trusting the Process, the NBA is becoming a pop culture requirement. At the same time, sports can have gatekeepers that make it insular and frustrating for people who aren't die hard fans. We're here to prove that basketball is entertaining to follow for all fans, whether you're actively watching the games or not. Recently featured in The New York Times!

The term ‘sticky floor' refers to the difficulties women face in progressing to higher-paid and higher-powered job roles whilst balancing the demands of their careers with personal, unpaid responsibilities. They can get stuck at lower levels, leaving the most senior positions to be occupied by, predominantly, men. Nuala McGovern discusses some of the reasons and solutions with Claire Reindorp, CEO of Young Women's Trust, and Lucy Kellaway, former journalist, now economics teacher and co-founder of Now Teach.A Lancashire jury has found Ryan Wellings not guilty of the manslaughter of 23-year-old Kiena Dawes. Wellings, who was Kiena's boyfriend, was found guilty of controlling and coercive behaviour and assault between January 2020 and July 2022. He had denied all the charges against him, and will be sentenced at a later date. During the trial, the jury heard that Kiena had left a note claiming she was murdered and that Wellings had killed her before she took her own life. Joining Nuala to discuss this case are BBC reporter Yunus Mulla, Crown Prosecution Service domestic abuse lead Kate Brown and Director of the Centre for Women's Justice Harriet Wistrich.Hermine Braunsteiner was the first person to be extradited from the US for Nazi war crimes. She was one of a few thousand women who had worked as a concentration camp guard and was nicknamed ‘the Mare' by prisoners because of her cruelty; she kicked people to death. In 1964, Hermine's past was unknown: She was living a quiet existence as an adoring suburban housewife in Queens, New York when she was tracked down by a reporter from The New York Times who exposed her past. Angharad Hampshire, a Research Fellow at York St John University, joins Nuala to talk about The Mare, her novel based on Hermine's life.Known as Badass Gran to her Instagram followers, Celia Duff is a double world Hyrox champion after taking up the races at 68.

How Storytelling Transforms Guest Experience  Shep Hyken interviews Ronn Nicolli, Chief Marketing Officer of Resorts World Las Vegas. He discusses the importance of creating memorable guest experiences through storytelling, leveraging technology, and the hospitality mentality.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What is hospitality mentality?  What role does storytelling play in creating memorable customer experiences?  Why is meeting or exceeding customer expectations important in the hospitality industry?  How do personal interactions complement technology in creating a seamless customer service experience?  How can AI be leveraged to provide personalized customer service interactions?  Top Takeaways:     A hospitality mentality is one of the most important attributes anybody hiring should look for. It is a philosophy of creating positive and welcoming customer experiences that must be ingrained in every staff member, not just the frontline.    Hospitality is more than a job. It is a passion for ensuring that every guest (or customer) feels valued.     Storytelling is a powerful tool that captures customers' attention and curiosity. A compelling brand story can help build a strong and emotional connection with customers. It helps maintain a consistent brand image and lets the customers know what to look forward to.    Modern customers expect instant solutions and gratification. Providing quick and efficient digital support options empowers customers to interact with a brand in a way that suits their preferences.    Technology can streamline processes and make experiences more convenient, but the personal touch remains important in building customer relationships. Brands need to find the balance between embracing technology and maintaining human interaction. While it is important to educate customers on digital options that will make their interactions more efficient, they should be given the option to engage in more traditional person-to-person ways based on their preferences and needs.    While technology and amenities are important, the overall experience connects with  customers the most. Customers want value for their money, which translates to memorable and meaningful experiences.    Customers like doing business with brands that care about the social issues that are important to them. For example, in the hospitality industry, sustainability is a significant factor in customer experience and decision-making. Customers appreciate being part of sustainability efforts and can improve how guests perceive a brand.    Plus, Ronn shares how he got into hospitality and his advice to anyone who wants to get into the industry. Tune in!  Quote:   "Customers crave experience over amenities. There is a difference between being expensive and being valuable. That difference comes down to the experiences and memories being created."    About:    Ronn Nicolli is the Chief Marketing Officer of Resorts World Las Vegas. He has over 20 years of experience as a marketing and nightlife executive.  Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 86: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: MAGA in disarray. While the mass deportation scheme becomes the latest casualty of having elected a bunch of incompetent egomaniacs, Steve Bannon has declared war on Elon Musk. AND Elon Musk’s toady David Sachs. AND Peter Thiel. Bannon no longer will stop at getting Musk exiled from the White House because Bannon and the rest of the nativist lunatics hate all foreigners but Musk wants to not hate foreigners who can make him more rich via the H1B Visas. Bannon now wants Musk and the others to be the first immigrants thrown out of the country. He actually told this to Italy’s most-read newspaper, Corriere della Sala: "He is a truly evil guy, a very bad guy. I made it my personal thing to take this guy down... he should go back to South Africa. Why do we have South Africans, the most racist people on earth...making any comments at all on what goes on in the United States." The point isn't whether Musk actually does kill and eat Musk. It's that they fight. Because at the same time Musk is admitting he can only cut half of the "government inefficiency" he promised to, and "Border Czar" Tom Homan is warning Republicans that Trump won't be deporting millions immediately. More like 60,000. And the Trump junta has admitted it can't unilaterally lower grocery prices, or install universal tariffs, and he's not going to dig up the Panama Canal and move it to Mar-a-Lago on Inauguration Day, he ain’t buying Greenland and coercing Canada and guess what, he didn’t “settle” Russia’s war on Ukraine in 24 hours, and his minions are hinting his attempts to turn the LA fires into an exploitable political event are going to crash. And even before re-gaining power, Trump has pre-failed. B-Block (34:55) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Joe Scarborough doubles down on his role as Marshal Petain-In-The-Ass at MSNVIchy. Politico dubs him "Elon Mush" then deletes it. And Naomi Wolf thinks victims of the Southern California firestorm aren't panicking enough. C-Block (45:20) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: It's bleak and the forecast for next week is Trump. So I need a laugh and maybe you do too. And this we bring you back to 1994 and the greatest off-air laugh in ESPN's history: Soccer Breakdown.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Alec Baldwin is suing Kari Morrissey and others involved in the Rust case. The lawsuit stems from Baldwin claiming he was wrongly prosecuted for the accidental shooting death of Helena Hutchins on the set of Rust. The case was dismissed due to prosecutorial misconduct. Baldwin is suing for violation of his civil rights, conspiracy, malicious abuse of process, defamation and other causes of action.Attorney Alex Spiro represents both Baldwin and Jay-Z. The judge in the Jay-Z case has had enough of his antics, who has asked him to tone down his inflammatory language, ad hominem attacks and filing copious amounts of litigation to seemingly drown the other side. The "It Ends With Us" lawsuits are a trilogy of litigation. The lawsuits are centered around allegations of harassment, retaliation, and breach of contract. Stephanie Jones and her company, Jonesworks, are suing Justin Baldoni, Wayfarer, Jennifer Abel, Melissa Nathan, and up to 10 John Does for secretly coordinating a media smear campaign against Baldoni's film co-star, Blake Lively, and then used the crisis as an opportunity to drive a wedge between Jones and Baldoni, and to publicly pin blame for this smear campaign on Jones - when Jones had no knowledge or involvement in it.Justin Baldoni sued The New York Times for an article published on December 21st, 2024 covering a complaint filed by Blake Lively with the California Civil Rights Department. He alleges the Times failed to properly investigate these claims before publishing its article and it is defamatory, constitutes false light, invasion of privacy, promissory fraud, and breach of implied-in-fact contract. Blake Lively filed a lawsuit against Justin Baldoni, Jamey Heath, Wayfarer, Jennifer Abel, Melissa Nathan in New York alleging the same things filed in the California Complaint. We're not sure why this wasn't filed in California but think this has to be a strategic advantage.

Sunita Sah: Defy Sunita Sah is an award-winning professor at Cornell University and an expert in organizational psychology, leading groundbreaking research on influence, authority, compliance, and defiance. A trained physician, her research and analyses have been widely published in leading academic journals and media entities including The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Harvard Business Review, and Scientific American. She is the author of Defy: The Power of No in a World That Demands Yes*. We often think of defiance as a snap judgement. Yet, it's so much more nuanced and purposeful than it often appears. In this conversation, Sunita and I explore the common patterns of defiance and how we can all do a better job of standing up for ourselves. Key Points We follow bad advice – even when we know it is obviously bad – to avoid appearing unhelpful. Defiance means acting in accordance with your true values when there is pressure to do otherwise. True defiance is not a snap judgement; it's a process. Acts of defiance are preceded by many moments of conscious compliance, when defiance is deferred. Five stages of defiance often emerge: (1) Tension, (2) Acknowledgement (to ourselves), (3) Escalation (vocalize to others), (4) Threat of non-compliance, and (5) Act of defiance. Vocalizing our concern to someone else is a key pivot point on the journey to ultimately saying no. Respond explicitly to these questions: (1) Who am I? (2) What type of situation is this? and (3) What does a person like me do in a situation such as this?
