Ravi welcomes New York Times Op-Ed columnist Pamela Paul to the show to discuss her skepticism about Vice President Kamala Harris as a candidate and the way in which Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee. Ravi and Pamela explore what Harris needs to do to start making her case to voters, from the importance of a new vision for K-12 education to how voters crave authenticity in today's politics. They also discuss Pamela's recent piece, 'The Republican Party's Elite Conundrum,' which examines how Ivy League graduates lead the Republican Party but downplay any whiff of intellectualism.

The Conversation Factory
The Problem with Change and the Power of Stability, Humanity and Praise with Ashley Goodall

The Conversation Factory

My guest today is Ashley Goodall, a leadership expert who has spent his career exploring large organizations from the inside, most recently as an executive at Cisco. He is the co-author of Nine Lies About Work, which was selected as the best management book of 2019 by Strategy + Business and as one of Amazon's best business and leadership books of 2019. It is an awesome book - highly recommended. If, after listening to this conversation you want to hear more (and I think you will!), take a listen to him and his co-author, Marcus Buckingham, talking on the HBR Idea Cast about lie #5 - the idea that people need feedback - and how most managers think about giving feedback in an utterly wrong way - which is also an idea we dive into later in our conversation today. Prior to Cisco, Ashley spent fourteen years at Deloitte as a consultant and as the Chief Learning Officer for Leadership and Professional development.  His book, "The Problem with Change: and the Essential Nature of Human Performance" is about what we might call lie number 10: the idea that change is good and that leaders must lead change in order to be good leaders. Wholesale belief in this lie has created what Ashley calls  “Life in the Blender” - driven by what I've heard some folks refer to as “The Reorg of the Day”. I love love love the musical analogies Ashley uses to describe leadership - not as the lead guitar or first violin, but as the Ground Bass - the principal structural element of a musical piece. The Leader can help teams navigate change by playing a backbeat of stability and consistency, supporting a range of free expression and variation. Find a link to Pachelbel's Canon here and listen to the Goldberg variations here (which he mentions in the extended version of the analogy, later on in the conversation). What is that Ground Bass? For Ashley it's about helping people feel seen, connected, celebrated and clear on the story of the meaning of their contributions to the work.  This perspective aligns very well with the message Bree Larson offered here some years back. Bree is a Partner at SYPartners and shared her framework around the challenges of designing organizational change - that most change can easily result in one or more of the Six Types of Loss she identified: Loss of Control Loss of Pride Loss of Narrative Loss of Time Loss of Competence Loss of Familiarity  All of which Ashley suggests leaders can deflect or reduce through 9 key leadership skills that he outlines in depth in his book: Make space  Forge undeniable competence  Share secrets  Be predictable  Speak real words  Honor ritual  Focus most on teams Radicalize HR  Pave the way Prior to releasing the book, Ashley wrote a New York Times Op-Ed piece which is a blockbuster and is an even more succinct, poignant and straight-on condemnation of modern corporate leadership - it is also highly worth reading. This book feels a bit like a Burn Book - Ashley is pointing out fundamental misconceptions at the heart of corporate life in a direct and unvarnished manner - in the hope that some leaders will listen and start doing things differently - Leading in a way that takes into account how humans really are and what we really need to thrive at work. Ashley is very clear: companies need to look beyond wellness initiatives and corporate cheerleading and shift their focus to the fundamental environment of daily work. The effects of a corporate life caught in constant change are more than clear to anyone who's been through it: uncertainty, a lack of control, a sense of unbelonging and of displacement, and a loss of meaning As Goodall says, “The ultimate job of leadership is not disruption and it is not to create change; it is to create a platform for human contribution, to create the conditions in which people can do the best work of their lives.” Also - do listen for an extended exchange around minute 40 where we talk about the power of praise and the Paul Hollywood handshake - if you're not a Great British Bake off fan, there's still time to watch a few episodes to get in the mood - or at least witness the effect of the Hollywood Handshake on Friends star David Schwimmer here.

Dirty Moderate with Adam Epstein

Mona Charen is a conservative American journalist, columnist, commentator and best selling author.

Buckley as a teenager, and her first job was as editorial assistant at his National Review. She went on to write speeches for first lady Nancy Reagan and then for the Gipper himself.  Looking toward the 1988 race, Vice President George H.W. Bush wasn't conservative enough for her. Fast forward through 4 best selling books (see below for links) and much prestige to CPAC-2018, where she got booed and seemingly harassed enough by the MAGA crowd for her views that security chose to escort her out of the building for her own safety.  Folks, this is NOT Lincoln's, Reagan's or Mona's Republican party. Adam talks to Mona about her career as a conservative thinker, what being a “Never Trumper” means and about whether or not a new center right party might emerge and what that would mean for a potential post-Trump era conservative movement.Mona's books: Useful Idiots: How Liberals Got it Wrong in the Cold War and Still Blame America First (2003)Do-Gooders: How Liberals Hurt Those They Claim to Help (and the Rest of Us) (2005),  Sex Matters: How Modern Feminism Lost Touch with Science, Love, and Common Sense (2018) Hard Right: The GOP's Drift Toward Extremism (2023)Mona's New York Times Op-Ed about her CPAC experience: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/25/opinion/im-glad-i-got-booed-at-cpac.htmlThanks for helping us save democracy one episode at a time!

The demographic cliff - a controversial idea that declining population growth will trigger economic disaster. But is it real or just sensationalized clickbait pushed by those with an agenda?Investment advisor Harry Dent popularized demographic cliff fears in the mid-2000s to sell his financial advice (and a book, of course). From there, it became a favored trope in education, where school administrators - from K-12 to college - worried about not having enough enrolled students. Recently, concerns have shifted to plummeting birth rates in South Korea, China, and Canada. But throughout history, similar narratives have repeatedly stoked moral panic about changing demographics - from Gen X's alleged lack of work ethic to Millennials' supposed disinterest in homeownership and parenthood. Cutting through the hype, Farrah and Adam expose who gains from pushing demographic doomsday myths and why resisting these misleading narratives matters.Mentioned Resources:Harry Dent's book "The Demographic Cliff": https://www.amazon.com/Demographic-Cliff-Survive-Prosper-Deflation/dp/1591847273New York Times article on China's demographic challenges: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/16/business/china-birth-rate.htmlWhy Pew Research Center is no longer reporting on generations: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/05/22/how-pew-research-center-will-report-on-generations-moving-forward/New York Times Op Ed on the population of school-aged children dropping: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/14/opinion/declining-enrollment.htmlNational Post article on the Canadian birth rate drop off: https://nationalpost.com/opinion/canadas-birth-rate-has-dropped-off-a-cliff-and-its-because-nobody-can-afford-housingFind us at www.inthedemopodcast.com where you can also sign up for our newsletter.You can also find us on twitter or instagram at @inthedemopod for updates and clips, and on LinkedIn.

In this episode, I respond to a New York Times Op-Ed by David Brooks piece, "What if We're the Bad Guys Here?" I like Brooks, especially some of his early books like Bobos in Paradise and The Social Animal, but his thesis here in the "Bad Guys" piece is flat wrong, ie that grass roots Republicans vote the way they do out of ignorance and resentment rather than a rational appraisal of incompetence of the self referring Democratic "elites." Rather that look down at the uneducated masses, commentators like Brooks should reflect and ask themselves... If we're so smart, why are our polices result in such bad outcomes? I really like Brooks, but the article should have been called, "What if Ivy League Grads are the Dumb Guys?" In this episode, I explain why that more accurately reflects what's happening in terms of accurately explaining the grass roots rational revolt against Democratic incompetence.

EPISODE 242: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:42) SPECIAL COMMENT: Not even five days since it went live, Zuckerberg's 'Threads' has exceeded the 100,000,000 users mark. And what is Musk doing? Calling him a "cuck" and personally servicing "Libs of TikTok." He's already made a fool of himself threatening to sue Zuckerberg and he HAS sued Twitter's old law firm for accepting the money Twitter owed it. So as Twitter is losing about two and a half billion dollars in value a month, what is his only other play? What it's ALWAYS been: ask the government for a bailout. It HAS to be! For once I'm rooting for the Republicans to take a state-level plan national. One Michigan county GOP leader says of another Michigan county GOP leader "“He kicked me in my balls as soon as I opened the door." And a dismissed budget chairman says new State GOP boss Kristina Karamo's spending is "so far out of proportion with income as to put us on the path to bankruptcy.” MAGA: Make America Groin Again. THIS is unlikely: Ron DeSantis says Trump colluded with Big Tech to bury the Hunter Biden "story" in 2020. Again - more of this please, Republicans. Even President Zelenskyy is scoring points off Trump, and while in an ideal world we'd admit Ukraine to NATO tomorrow, Biden makes two unanswerable points as to why we can't - not now. B-Block (19:04) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Oh, nothing, it's just Tucker Carlson losing 92.5% of his audience between Episode 1 and Episode 8. You can guess which paper asked that moronic cocaine question. And Trump's imbecility at a Dairy Queen invokes one of my Dad's greatest stories and greatest punchlines.

And MLB is trying to spruce up and speed up its player draft. But with it cut from 70 rounds to 20, what happens to all the people who won't be drafted and thus won't start their careers as the lifers who are the backbone of the game?  (34:11) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The podcast host talks about liquidating Joe Biden. The podcast guest - Jeanine Pirro - doesn't walk off the show. And given that assassination-adjacent conversation, why is Nikki Haley STILL predicting the president's death? Plus: Andrea Mitchell thinks magnetometers can detect cocaine. I think I detect the time for Andrea Mitchell to retire before she destroys her reputation and becomes Tom Brokaw. C-Block (41:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Last week was the 20th Anniversary of Ambassador Joe Wilson's famous New York Times Op-Ed that destroyed George Bush's lie that there was WMD in Iraq - and thus destroyed George Bush's legacy. So they decided to destroy Joe Wilson. And craziest of all: they thought I could help.

Yes, I'm a 42 year old man and I'm recording this podcast while wearing a pair of my new Lululemon pants.  And I found them the same way most people find podcasts.Look, we all know the pandemic changed EVERYTHING.   From food delivery to media consumption to...PANTS.  As a recent New York Times Op Ed said - the best things to come out of Covid are "soft pants."  I've been working from home since 2018, and my wife has since March 2020 - and we openly complain when we have to wear jeans, or so-called "hard pants."   Denim's out, comfort is in.   So how did I start my pants journey?   Much like podcast discovery, word of mouth.  My wife's hair stylist told her that she bought a pair for her husband, and he loves them.  So I started looking online -and of course my Facebook feed was soon filled with ads for Lulu, Birddogs, Public Rec, and Fabletics.   I also posted looking for recommendations, and was surprised by how many friends my age had suggestions!  Social media and Google - more drivers of podcast discovery.My wife is a fan of dressing "age appropriate," and I think she's on a secret mission to gradually purge all the sports logo'ed clothes from my 20's out of my closet.   And yes, that includes sweatpants, which are being replaced by the more modern "joggers."     At this point in time, me wearing a jersey to anything other than a game, well it makes about as much sense as sitting by the radio waiting for your favorite song to play.So I bought three pairs, all online of course.   The LuLus, a pair from the cheeky brand Bird Dogs, which might even be slightly more comfortable, and a pair from Fabletics. which I returned.   Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by this new way of wearing pants.   It makes more sense for my lifestyle.   Just like podcast skeptics can often be won over by a show that entertains or informs them. I gotta admit, I stereotyped Lululemon - thinking it was a brand for wealthy suburban moms and sorority girls. But I was wrong.  Just like every SNL sketch you've ever seen stereotypes podcasts and podcasters.  Gone are the days of poor audio made in Mom's basement.  Now, every company needs a podcast as part of their brand strategy.   And podcasting consumption has hit an all time high. 83% of American adults are familiar with it, 64% have listened to one, and almost 100 million people tune in every week.Now that I'm wearing comfy pants every day, I won't go back to jeans, except for those rare occasions when necessary.  I hope you can find a podcast that feels as good on your ears as these pants do on my....legs.   Lata!

Going to therapy makes you a good person Putting that you're going to therapy on your dating app is a cheat code – meaning that you are safe to date We have reached a point where we're more focused on “mental health” than on mental illness Therapy-speak has invaded everything It is toxic to tell everyone to go to therapy What is leading to comparisons of therapy to religion? Decreased membership in organized religion Finding your own morals and values outside of organized religion Finding meaning and purpose through the work you do in therapy A fear of the degradation of social contracts and a rise of moral relativism How are people framing the role of the therapist? Potential for individual exploration of how to live one's life that is individualized and less tied to specific doctrine Another potential to be seen as giving direction on how to live life The role of community care versus individualized healing Relationship versus individual focus The nuance of what therapy is versus the fears of what is being done What is the fear about therapy being so central in our lives? The worry that people are too self-focused and not sufficiently other focused Pushing back on the status quo and established systems The notion that “therapy is good” and “all people need therapy” Therapy as a status symbol or a designation that I'm a good person Lack of access for folks with mental illness due to “worried well” and “personal growth” clients taking all of the spots Resources for Modern Therapists mentioned in this Podcast Episode: We've pulled together resources mentioned in this episode and put together some handy-dandy links.

Susie is mad at one of her favorite authors, so she rants about his boomer views. We discuss a documentary about competitive dog groomers, and Susie explains why she thinks they're similar to professional athletes. We hear some "old gossip" about Jayne Mansfield, and learn why her death saved lives. We debate a New York Times Op-Ed that said therapy isn't for everyone, and going doesn't mean you're necessarily a good person. Susie wants to know if any of Sarah's therapy clients have ever been combative (and it's probably because Susie sounds like she wants to punch her therapist, which doesn't seem like a healthy attitude. lol). We discuss the fishermen who loaded their fish with weights to cheat in a contest, and we discuss people who *ahem* cheat and then want to "take the money and run."

Bertrand's latest piece in the New York Times is an autobiographical tale that describes his life growing up in generational poverty titled, “I Escaped Poverty, But Hunger Still Haunts Me”. Now, as Pascal can attest to, writing for outlets like Newsweek, the editing process can sometimes alter what the main thesis of what you're trying to convey in order to be “relatable” to a wider audience. I spoke with Bertram a few weeks ago while hanging out with my son in L.A. and we had a long talk about poverty's lasting effects on one's psyche and how he actually got out and stayed out. Sacrifices are sometimes necessary. Removing yourself from friends and family who are stuck in the same cycle.   It may seem harsh and counterintuitive to those of us on the left, but sometimes escaping the barbaristic reality of capitalism necessitates solutions that slogans and hope can't provide immediately. The abolition of capitalism will not occur overnight, and the purpose of this essay is to shed light on the collateral damage caused by the structures in which we live. But, sadly due to the editing to fit a liberal framework, it almost comes across as a Horatio Alger story.    Throughout the essay, Bertram paints a very vivid picture of what generational poverty looks like through a child's eyes. As a baby, his father was incarcerated and remained a dark presence in his life.  His mother was dependent on relationships with men, which didn't work out well due to her violent nature as well leaving Bertram the victim of circumstance. But his life was one was one I'd seen play out where I'm from and there were stories that reminded me of my own life.     Our conversation a few weeks back explored the dark realities of what it is like to go hungry and be poor, as well as the reality that sometimes it is necessary to turn one's back on their family and friends in order to survive. In this case though, it is not a Hollywood tale about meritocracy and entrepreneurship. In order for Bertram to move beyond his inner-city surroundings, it took more than simply hard work and determination. From the piece in the Times:   In 1988, the year I was born, the Census Bureau reported that there were approximately 31.9 million people in poverty. In 2019, the last year before the pandemic, it had grown to 34 million people. According to one study of 20 million children, only 3 percent of Black children born into poverty make it to the upper class — adults whose annual household income is in the top 20 percent. The fact that I'm among that 3 percent is due to good fortune (an unearned talent for tests) and the help of strangers: federal grants and low-interest loans put in place by people I have never met. Delaying parenthood was vital to my escape, but it wouldn't have happened without access to contraception and abortion, which will be less available to the poor kids coming up behind me.   So if you guys have a chance check out the article, there should be a link in the chat, and if you're watching the playback on this there will be a link in the comments.

In this sixth installment of A Special Place In Hell, Sarah bows to “white supremacy urgency” and powers through her illness, which is either COVID or Monkeypox. Meghan talks about attending a screening of the film Jihad Rehab, a “controversial” documentary that made it to the Sundance Film Festival, only to be deemed “a truckload of hate” and effectively wiped out of existence, leaving the first-time filmmaker without work or any financial or community support. As she watched the film, Meghan couldn't figure out what the problem was. But Sarah guessed it on the first try!The girls/women then revisit the main subject of last week's episode: pornography. Listeners left some candid feedback in the Substack comment thread (available only to paid subscribers) and the co-hostesses discuss these remarks, especially one from a man who described becoming so desensitized by porn that he no longer finds most real life women attractive. (Obviously he's never met a female podcaster!) Sarah hypothesizes that porn addiction will eventually lead to human extinction. Sarah and Meghan (or S & M) then move on to a problematic evergreen, the subject of sexual consent. Citing a recent New York Times opinion piece suggesting that saying “yes” to sex doesn't necessarily make it totally consensual, Sarah wonders why it's so hard to just say “ick” and move on. Finally they delve into the subject of (trigger warning) cuddle parties, asking why anyone would go to such a thing and whether wearing footie pajamas constitutes “asking for it.”Extra Juicy Bonus Content (for paying subscribers only!): Prominent New York literary figure creates merchandise line inveighing upon another prominent literary figure to “Retire B***h.” Sarah is appalled.

In some climate circles, solar geoengineering is akin to a swear word. Also known as solar radiation modification (SRM), it means deliberately modifying the earth's atmosphere to reflect solar radiation. It provokes forceful pushback, because it's unclear how it would affect the earth's agriculture, ozone layer and ecosystems. But it's been attracting interest because it's clear it would do one thing well: cool the planet. If we're not moving fast enough on emissions reductions and carbon removal to avoid 1.5 degrees Celsius of warming, could solar geoengineering, despite its risks, be less dangerous than a hotter world? In this episode, Shayle talks to Dan Visioni, a climate modeler who studies solar geoengineering at Cornell University's Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. They discuss what solar geoengineering might look like in the real world.  Stratospheric sulfate injections would mimic the effects of volcanic eruptions like Mount Pinatubo in 1991, which cooled the planet by 0.5 degrees Celsius in the following year.  Marine cloud brightening would use salt aerosols to brighten a type of cloud that reflects solar radiation, a phenomenon already created by ocean-going ships. They also cover cirrus cloud thinning and—straight out of a sci-fi movie—space mirrors. They explore key questions, such as: What do we know about the potential effects on ozone, precipitation and ecosystems? What do we need to research and what could we learn by testing? Which could scale faster—Carbon dioxide removal or solar geoengineering?  Solar geoengineering could cost a tiny fraction of the amount required to scale up CDR. Does that mean it could buy us time to draw down emissions more cheaply? Or does the relative affordability enable a rogue actor to deploy it without international collaboration? And who gets to decide whether the world deploys solar geoengineering? Whose hand is on the thermostat, so to speak?
