Episode 386: Ménage à Troi   Friend of the show Tanya Zerr makes her yearly appearance to join David this week to discuss the TNG season three episode Ménage à Troi. It's been a while since we've discussed Star Trek: The Next Generation on the show and I do believe this isn't an episode we ever really discussed before. This episode unfortunately does not depict a Ménage à Trois much to our great sadness. But this episode is one of the first to establish much of the Ferengi Lore we come to know for The Next Generation and for Deep Space Nine. This being a Lwaxana Troi episode it is always a pleasure to see her on screen.

In this episode of The Church Planting Podcast, Greg Nettle sits down with Russ Ewell, Executive Minister of the Bay Area Christian Church, author of He's Not Who You Think He Is, and founder of Digital Scribbler. Together they explore one of today's most pressing ministry questions: How do we reach, disciple, and develop Gen Z and millennials into kingdom leaders? Russ shares recent data showing that Gen Z is experiencing the highest levels of anxiety, loneliness, and loss of purpose of any generation in recent history. Yet he insists this generation is also deeply open, idealistic, and eager to make the world better. He outlines a practical, three-part framework for discipling young people: 1️⃣ Build a foundation in a real relationship with God 2️⃣ Give them personal vision and purpose 3️⃣ Create pathways for leadership development through mentoring, internships, and real responsibility Russ also explains how technology—when used intentionally—can help overcome human limitations, support inclusion for those with disabilities, and open new doors for spiritual formation. At the same time, he cautions church leaders to help Gen Z navigate the emotional impact of social media and digital overload. Finally, Russ offers simple, relational approaches any church can begin right away—like small discussion groups, mentoring circles, or "Pizza & Jesus" gatherings—to cultivate trust, spiritual hunger, and leadership potential in the next generation. Podcast Contents: 00:00–01:00 — Greg introduces Russ Ewell and the focus on reaching the next generation. 01:00–04:00 — Who Gen Z is; mental-health challenges and cultural context. 04:00–08:00 — A practical 3-part discipleship framework: relationship with God, vision, leadership. 08:00–12:00 — Real-life examples: "Double Edge" group, personal discipleship stories. 12:00–16:00 — Why Gen Z is more spiritually open than many assume. 16:00–20:00 — How Russ structures leadership development programs for young adults. 20:00–24:00 — Technology, inclusion, and how digital tools shape Gen Z's spiritual journey. 24:00–27:00 — Why Russ is hopeful about the next generation and where church leaders should focus.

Today we continue our Family of God series with a special message called “Reaching the Next Generation”. As a church, we believe every generation matters and that passing on our faith is one of our greatest biblical responsibilities. Rather than hearing from one pastor, you'll hear from our Children's Pastor, Youth Pastor, and Young Adults Pastor as they share how God is moving in the lives of children, students, and young adults—and how we, as a spiritual family, can intentionally raise them in the faith. Together, we want to seek God's heart for the next generation and take ownership of the call to disciple those who are coming behind us. Speaker: Pastors Ben Dixon, Ronalee Burley, Iziah Dawn, and Jared Hunt Scripture: Psalm 78:1-4 Series: The Family of God Thank you for Joining.

In episode 276 of the Better With Running podcast, hosts Chris Armstrong and Zac Newman welcome Run2PB Coach Ned Buckell.Ned brings a high level of academic expertise to his coaching, as he is currently completing his Masters of Exercise Physiology. The episode serves as a deep dive into Ned's journey, exploring how he transitioned from a competitive junior athlete to a coach who balances scientific principles with real-world experience.The conversation begins by painting a picture of Ned's upbringing in a competitive household as the youngest of four boys. Alongside his twin brother, Matt, Ned's introduction to running started as early as age five with Bendigo Little Athletics and cross-country racing. Listeners get an inside look at the long-standing relationship between the Buckell brothers and their mentor, elite runner Andy Buchanan, who began coaching them in Grade 6. This bond has evolved over moving from a teacher-student dynamic to a professional one where they now work together at the Verve Running.A significant portion of the show is dedicated to a major turning point in Ned's life: a non-running-related injury that sidelined him for years. In Year 8, Ned contracted a severe staph infection that settled in his hip, leading to a month-long hospital stay, and complications like pneumonia and myocarditis. He shares the raw reality of spending 18 months on crutches and the grueling process of rebuilding muscle and fitness after missing a critical window of his junior career, on top of that after a return we hear about the decision to undergo and hip replacement and how he has been able to return to running after this.Beyond his personal history, Ned discusses how his academic background in exercise science shapes his approach to coaching both senior and junior athletes. The episode highlights his focus on Strength and Conditioning (S&C) as a non-negotiable tool for performance and injury prevention. Whether discussing the nuances of tendon stiffness or the mental health benefits of the sport, Ned's perspective is one of resilience making this episode a must-listen for runners looking to understand the "why" behind their training.

A leader who built his career on high-stakes investigations shares how those experiences now shape the culture, standards, and direction of a top litigation firm. Matthew L. Schwartz, Chair of Boies Schiller Flexner LLP, joins Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg to talk about what it takes to lead a litigation-first firm without losing the sharpness that defines its work. He reflects on a decade in the Southern District of New York, where cases tied to General Motors, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, and the fallout from Bernie Madoff shaped his views on judgment, clarity, and what clients actually want from their lawyers. Matthew explains why the firm gives young lawyers real responsibility early on and why senior lawyers thrive with the autonomy to build their practices without heavy bureaucracy. He also digs into the decisions that matter most right now: where to grow, how to align with client needs, and what pressures like AI, rising litigation costs, and outside capital mean for a disputes-only practice. The conversation circles back to a central question for any leader in high-stakes litigation: how do you build a firm where people think boldly, act with integrity, and stay committed to excellence when the pressure is highest? Matthew makes the case that culture, mentorship, and trust still carry the most weight.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Matthew L.

In this episode of the Beauty School Bobby Podcast, Jennifer Alvarez shares her inspiring journey in the beauty industry, from her early struggles in school to becoming a successful salon owner and coach. She discusses the importance of mentorship, the challenges of transitioning from employee to entrepreneur, and the realities of burnout in the industry. Jennifer emphasizes the need for continuous education, the value of surrounding oneself with successful individuals, and the role of coaching in achieving business success. In this conversation, Jennifer Alvarez and Bobbi Powell discuss the challenges and strategies within the salon industry, emphasizing the importance of clear planning, communication, and adaptability. They explore how salon owners can better support their teams and the significance of recruiting and nurturing young talent. The discussion highlights the need for a balance between freedom and responsibility in the workplace, as well as the value of building relationships with future stylists.   Takeaways Jennifer's journey began in seventh grade when she decided to pursue beauty school. She faced challenges in traditional schooling but excelled in beauty school, becoming student of the year. Success for Jennifer was defined by her ability to excel in hair and makeup, contrasting her sister's academic achievements. The transition from employee to salon owner was driven by a desire for more challenges and opportunities. Burnout in the beauty industry can stem from comparison and unrealistic expectations set by social media. Jennifer emphasizes the importance of surrounding oneself with successful people to foster growth. Coaching can provide a fast track to success by helping salon owners avoid common pitfalls. The foundation of a successful salon includes strong systems, leadership, and marketing strategies. Continuous education and mentorship are crucial for personal and professional growth in the beauty industry. Jennifer's coaching focuses on helping salon owners create a supportive and effective team environment. You're going to run into some major issues with trying to develop the right formula. You don't want to overwhelm or complicate things. You have to just be at least 51% clear. Planning is going to prepare you for success. We need to take action in our life more than what we are consuming. There are so many different ways that a salon can work. Business is business; it does not need to be complex. Autonomy comes with responsibility. It's good to be open and take surveys of your team. Your success is my success.   Chapters 00:00 Journey into the Beauty Industry 06:09 Defining Success in the Early Career 12:33 Transitioning from Employee to Salon Owner 19:11 Navigating Burnout and Industry Challenges 24:11 The Role of Coaching in Salon Success 33:21 Navigating Business Challenges 36:17 The Importance of Planning and Consistency 40:23 Understanding Business Structures and Expectations 44:41 The Balance of Freedom and Responsibility 47:12 Implementing Clear Communication and Departure Protocols 53:50 Recruiting the Next Generation of Stylists 58:26 Advice for Young Stylists and Students   www.beautyschoolbobbi.com www.beautyandstylenetwork.com   Follow Beauty and Style Network: @beautystylenet Beauty School Bobbi: @beautyschoolbobbi Jennifer Alvarez: @jenniferjadealvarez

The next wave of protein innovation is here - and it looks nothing like the plant-based burgers that dominated the last five years.  In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, recorded at our Ascot event in 2025, we explore two radically different approaches to meat alternatives. Mycelium fermentation that grows centimetre-length muscle-like fibres, requiring just four ingredients, and extremophilic micro algae that thrive at pH 1 without contamination or arable land. But our panel of experts also confront the hard numbers: with billions of chickens slaughtered annually and current meat consumption mathematically unsustainable by 2050, these innovations must need to achieve price parity, superior nutritional value, and genuine consumer acceptance to make a meaningful impact.

In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Yuyu Zhang to unpack a shift that many developers can feel but struggle to articulate. Yuyu's journey spans academic research at Georgia Tech, building recommendation systems that power TikTok and Douyin at global scale, and leading the Seed-Coder project at ByteDance, which reached state-of-the-art performance among open source code models earlier this year. Today, he is part of Codeck, where the focus has moved beyond AI assistance toward autonomous coding agents that can plan, execute, and verify real engineering work. Our conversation begins with a simple but revealing observation. Most AI coding tools still behave like smarter autocomplete. They help you type faster, but they do not own the work. Yuyu explains why that distinction matters, especially for teams dealing with complex systems, tight deadlines, and constant interruptions. Autonomy, in his view, is not about replacing engineers. It is about giving them back their flow. We explore Verdent, Codeck's autonomous coding agent, and Verdent Deck, the desktop environment designed to coordinate multiple agents in parallel. Instead of one AI reacting line by line inside an editor, these agents operate at the task level. They plan work with the developer upfront, execute independently in safe environments, and validate their output before handing anything back. The result feels less like using a tool and more like managing a small engineering team. Yuyu shares how parallel agents change both speed and predictability. One agent can implement a feature, another can write tests, and another can investigate logs, all without stepping on each other. Just as important, he walks through the safeguards that keep humans in control. Explicit planning, permission boundaries, sandboxed execution, and clear, reviewable diffs are all designed to address the very real concerns engineering leaders have about letting autonomous systems near production code. The discussion also turns personal. Having worked on some of the highest-scale systems in the world, Yuyu reflects on why developers lose momentum. It is rarely about raw ability. It is about constant context switching. His goal with Verdent is to preserve mental focus by offloading interruptions and letting engineers return to work with clarity rather than cognitive fatigue. We close by looking ahead. The definition of a "good developer" is changing, just as it has many times before. AI is not ending programming. It is reshaping it, pushing human creativity, judgment, and design thinking to the foreground while machines handle the repetitive churn. If autonomous coding agents are becoming colleagues rather than helpers, how comfortable are you with that future, and what would you want to stay firmly in human hands?

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss a topic that is near and dear to Dr. White's heart - the relational dynamic between parents and grandparents. As a father of four children and a grandfather to 16 grandchildren, this is a topic where he is very well versed. Marriage and family are foundational institutions in God's created order of our world. And when those families break down, particularly when there are divides and discord between parents and grandparents, the younger generations are impacted in countless ways. Episode Links As Alexis mentioned at the top of the episode, many of the topics covered on the Church & Culture Podcast are inspired by blogs that Dr. White has written. For those new to the podcast, the Church & Culture Blog is where Dr. White releases two reflections each week about a wide assortment of topics related to the church's engagement with the modern world. If you aren't currently a subscriber, you can click HERE to subscribe now. For this week's podcast, there are three recent blogs that Dr. White has written that we'd suggest you to go back and read. They are: “A Vision for Grandparenting,” “Grandparent-to-Parent Mistakes” and “Parent-to-Grandparent Mistakes.” And again, this topic is so important because it's absolutely a part of the vision for family that is outlined in the Bible. Dr. White mentioned a book written by Paul and Diana Miller called A Guide to Great Grandparenting, which talked about this idea of a “family trinity.” When these relationships are healthy, you find that you have healthy and functional young people being raised. He also talked about a large national study on how parents can best pass on their faith to the next generation. You can read more about this in Handing Down the Faith: How Parents Pass their Religion on to the Next Generation written by Christian Smith and Amy Adamczyk. There are two articles that were applicable to today's conversation that we want to share with you: Rheana Murray, “‘Grandparenting on Eggshells,'” The Atlantic, November 26, 2025. Dr. Perri Klass, “5 Common Mistakes Grandparents Make, According to a Pediatrician,” The Washington Post, November 17, 2025. Finally, as mentioned this is a topic on which Dr. White has a lot of experience to draw from. And over the years at Mecklenburg Community Church, he's given many series that fall under the category of “Marriage & Family.” You can find those series gathered at Church & Culture HERE. In addition to the blog, we'd encourage you to check out the Daily Headline News - a collection of headlines from around the globe each weekday. We'd also love to hear from you if there is a topic that you'd like to see discussed on the Church & Culture Podcast in an upcoming episode. You can find the form to submit your questions at the bottom of the podcast page HERE.

 It's the season of giving—and today, we're unwrapping one of the most transformative gifts of all: the gift of mirrors. In this episode, Shannon sits down with Dr. Sheila Gujrathi, biotech entrepreneur, physician, and trailblazer whose career has taken her from Harvard to the helm of Gossamer Bio—and into the heart of human-centric leadership. You may know her from her TED Talk, “Shattering the Glass Ceiling by Finding the Right Mirrors,” and her book, The Mirror Effect, which helps leaders everywhere see themselves—and each other—more clearly. Together, Shannon and Sheila explore how to shatter the glass ceilings not only above us, but within us. They discuss how fear, insecurity, doubt, and shame—the “FIDS,” as Sheila calls them—can quietly hold us back, and how surrounding ourselves with mirrors who see our brilliance can change everything. From learning to “have your own back,” to creating your personal board of directors, this episode is a reminder that confidence begins when we start believing the reflections that lift us higher. Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VV_mAbu_N0g✨ This December, give yourself the gift of belonging—and pass it on.

Arto Minasyan is the Co-founder and President of Krisp, a company that provides AI-powered noise cancellation and voice optimization to improve clarity in virtual communication. He is also the Co-founder and CEO of 10Web, an AI-driven WordPress platform that automates website building, hosting, and performance optimization for businesses and agencies.  In this episode… Voice technology is evolving faster than most people can track, redefining how we meet, collaborate, and build online. As AI becomes woven into everyday tools, tasks that once felt clunky or technical now feel surprisingly simple. So what happens when voice AI and automated web creation become powerful enough to feel effortless? For Arto Minasyan, a longtime innovator in AI-driven communication, real progress occurs when technology removes friction from the experience instead of adding to it. He explains that people don't embrace tools simply because they're sophisticated — they stick with the ones that make life easier within seconds. That thinking guided Krisp's expansion from basic noise reduction into transcription, meeting notes, and real-time accent conversion. His work on automated WordPress creation reflects the same principle: deliver immediate results through an API rather than forcing users to navigate a complex platform. By centering speed, clarity, and intuitive workflows, Arto sees AI reshaping the way people communicate and build online. In this episode of the Inspired Insider Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Weisz sits down with Arto Minasyan, Co-founder and President of Krisp, to discuss the rise of voice AI and next-generation WordPress automation. They explore Krisp's expansion beyond noise cancellation, the power of an API-first website builder, and how timing shapes startup success. Arto also talks about the future of human-to-computer voice interaction.

1️⃣ The January 6 Pipe Bomber Mystery

What turns a kid from Brooklyn into a leader who builds and rebuilds big businesses, then starts over again by choice? Meet Mike Tepedino, Founder and Managing Partner of Blue Light Capital, whose path runs from six gritty years in loan workouts on the “what can go wrong” side of real estate became the foundation for everything that followed.We get into the leap to brokerage, the Chinese-restaurant meeting that set up HFF's rise, and the 2019 sale to JLL for about $2 billion, where scale brought new tools and reach but also a fresh look at purpose and timing.Now Mike is building again with Blue Light Capital, stepping into an underserved middle-market bridge space in the roughly $15 to $50 million range, and pairing that with BLNext, a nonprofit that trains college and pro athletes for real estate careers with 150 hours of Excel and Argus plus one-to-one mentors who have walked the path.If you care about discipline, people, and timing, this conversation delivers hard lessons and practical wisdom with zero fluff. Watch the full episode to hear how Mike thinks about focus, why small habits like handwritten notes still matter, and what it takes to start again when everyone thinks you are done. 00:00 – Welcome to the Show00:44 – Who Was “Little Mike”?
