Do we have clearance, Clarence? This week, we revisit an all-time comedy classic, Airplane (1980). One of the trailblazers of the spoof comedy, this film shows how good writing, comedy timing, and subversion of expectation, can create a masterpiece that still holds up 45 years later. Is it the best spoof comedy? Lets us know in the comments.Also Play:Cinema Chain Game--------------------------------------------Subscribe, rate, and review:Apple Podcasts: Our Film FathersSpotify: Our Film FathersYouTube: Our Film Fathers---------------------------------------------Follow Us:Instagram: @ourfilmfathersTwitter / X: @ourfilmfathersEmail: ourfilmfathers@gmail.com
A charter captain recounts one of the deadliest storms ever on Lake Tahoe. Sponsored by Imtra During the afternoon of June 21, an unexpected, ferocious thunderstorm swept across Lake Tahoe. Before the storm, scores of boaters were out enjoying a Saturday on the lake. One was longtime Tahoe fishing charter captain Mike Nielsen. The owner of Tahoe Topliners sportfishing, Nielsen has grown up on the lake and from his 22-foot Duckworth, he had a front row seat to a storm that sank or capsized many boats and tragically, killed eight in what may be the worst marine disaster in Tahoe history.

What happens when we place humans at the center of every workplace decision? Anne-Catherine Nielsen, founder of Equo Magna, brings her rich experience from the hospitality industry to tackle this question in a conversation that couldn't be more timely.In a post-pandemic world where employees are reevaluating their relationship with work, Nielsen offers invaluable insights into what truly matters. "There's been a search for meaning since the pandemic," she notes, highlighting how today's workforce seeks purpose beyond a paycheck. This shift has created both challenges and opportunities for employers.Anne Catherine's perspective on leadership transformation is particularly compelling. "The market conditions are going to create better leaders," she observes, explaining the need for organizations to move toward more human-centered approaches. The conversation explores how toxic workplace cultures simply cannot sustain themselves and how accountability balanced with recognition creates environments where people can thrive authentically.The discussion goes beyond theory, offering practical insights on team dynamics, leveraging technology while preserving human connection, and creating psychologically safe spaces where feedback—even "grumbling"—becomes a powerful tool for improvement. Anne Catherine's background in both hospitality and HR creates a unique lens for understanding how treating employees well directly translates to customer satisfaction and business success.Whether you're a leader seeking to transform your organization's culture or an employee navigating today's changing workplace landscape, this conversation provides actionable wisdom for creating more human-centered workplaces. As Anne Catherine reminds us, at the end of every decision, product, or service, there's always a human being.

From Amy:Timing for creative work is interesting. Sometimes you start a project that, for whatever reason, doesn't want to come together right then. Later the perfect timing arises, and you understand that this project was preparing itself to meet the moment.I recorded this conversation with Sigrid K. Nielsen two years ago; then my podcast went on a forced hiatus. (As in, my editor quit to be a musician, causing me to rework my production process.) Which meant that this and other conversations never got produced, but I kept them in reserve.Now it's Pride Month 2025; now is the moment.What I said then is equally true today: Sigrid K Nielsen lights up a room. I have spent time with her on many occasions, live and on Zoom calls, 1:1 and in groups, and she's never been anything but her most authentic, fully expressed, and yes, BLISSFUL, free self. That's a choice on her part. When you read Sigrid‘s book (forthcoming) you'll see what I mean: Sigrid is incredibly vibrant. But you don't have to wait for the book to meet her. You can listen today.Be forewarned, Sigrid will force you to rethink things you thought you were certain of. Because she sure has rethought things. Courageously so.Back to the timing: As I release this episode, it's Monday, June 23. I wanted to release it on Friday, but that just didn't want to happen, even though it was ready. All the things were conspiring to delay publication. Then on Saturday evening, we learned that bombs were illegally dropped on Iran without notice and without any justification except to make an old man feel good about himself. As with so much right now, there is so much distraction.And I'm going to say this part out loud: Othering trans people, making them scapegoats for all the harms in the world, is keeping US ALL from being who WE ALL truly are, seeing what's right there for us to see. WE ALL have it in us to be compassionate, kind, loving people, when we're not running scared from each other. But that requires awareness.We can make another choice.This othering is not a new tactic. It was there in the 30's in Germany, when trans people were targeted (we forget that part because their libraries, their history, their rich artistic culture was obliterated), and it was there in the 80's when Sigrid and I were coming of age, and only rockstars could dress as they wanted. Because it was a "costume."Performance, you see. Heaven forbid YOU be queer. Or other. Sigrid's former self knew that assignment.But that required hiding in plain sight. Even from yourself. And once you're aware of what's really there, you can't not see it. Pretending not to see is exhausting. You want to stop making believe.Isn't that true for us all?Sigrid is a trans woman who transitioned at nearly 50 years old. AND. This is who she's always been.As much as I have always recognized Sigrid's voice as powerful, her writing sublime, her presence uplifting and joyous, there has never been a moment when her message was more essential.We have solutions to find for our one small, beautiful planet's great problems. Queer people are not one of those problems. They deserve all the love.They are leading the way, ahead of their time.It's going to require all of us to face our deepest fears and embrace our most profound gifts. Our humanity. And to be abundantly clear, this doesn't mean YOU have to be TRANS. Unless you are.We need YOU to be YOU. That's our agenda.Because, as Sigrid often reminds me, though our stories may look vastly different on the surface— hers is from the perspective of a trans woman who came out at midlife, and mine is a different kind of midlife revival—our real-life stories are universal.We are all human and we are all in this together.Thanks Sigrid!Love, AmySigrid K.

This episode of the Allyship in Action Podcast with Julie Kratz features Charlene Polite Corley, Nielsen's VP of Diverse Insights and Partnerships, and Stacie De Armas, Senior Vice President of Diverse Intelligence & Initiatives at Nielsen. Together we discuss the long-term value of diversity for businesses, emphasizing that engaging historically excluded consumers is crucial for growth and brand loyalty. Stacie and Charlene highlight that while people can be "trickier" than money, diversifying your workforce and your approach to consumers is as important as diversifying your financial portfolio. Some key takeaways from this conversation: Diversity is a significant driver of business growth and ROI: Engaging with historically excluded consumer groups is essential for long-term business growth as they represent untapped markets and offer greater potential for building brand loyalty and achieving higher returns on marketing investment. Understanding nuanced cultural and consumption habits is crucial for effective marketing: A "copy-paste" approach to marketing is ineffective. Brands need to develop a deeper understanding of the media consumption habits and cultural nuances of diverse audiences to connect authentically and build lasting relationships. Data shows, for example, that Black, Hispanic, and Asian audiences spend significantly more time online. Centering diverse narratives benefits everyone and creates broader cultural impact: Focusing on representing specific communities authentically in content and advertising doesn't exclude other groups. Instead, it provides "windows" into different experiences, enriching everyone's understanding and often leading to broader cultural trends and significant financial success, as seen in sports and film. Actionable Allyship Takeaway: Organizations and individuals should actively lean into fear and commit to an inclusive data strategy, continually seeking to understand and meet diverse consumers where they are, knowing that it's both the right thing to do and a smart business decision that drives growth and loyalty, regardless of external pressures.

I 1975 fik Danmark Anker Jørgensen som statsminister og Gasolin toppede hitlisterne med "GAS 5". Gerald Ford var i gang med sin korte tid som amerikansk præsident, mens Bay City Rollers sang "Bye Bye Baby". 1975 var også et begivenhedsrigt år The Beatles land. Lennon blev far, McCartney familien blev stoppet med en joint i bilen, Harrison gik soul-vejen, mens Ringo Starr høstede og drak frugterne af sin succes. Og så var der lige albums som "Rock ´n`Roll", "Venus And Mars", "Extra Texture", "Blast From Your Past" og "Shaved Fish". Der var masser af gode historier, masser af Beatles-relaterede begivenheder som tages under behandling af Søren Mathiesen og Claus Nielsen. Det ultra-kompetente panel, som igen og igen hjælper med at lave nærværende podcast. På hver deres måde tager de livtag med den fascinerende historie og giver perspektiv, når det stikker af for værten, Niels Harild. "It Was 50 Years Ago Today" er en serie i "Elsker The Beatles" og det er din helt egen historiefortælling om en tid, hvor der stadigvæk var masser at fortælle om The Fab Four. Episoden her er første del af to om 1975.

Want to steal my Objection Handling Cheat Sheet? Click here. Want to connect with Stratton?? Follow/DM on Instagram @optimalsalesmindsetToday we bring back a favorite guest, Stratton Nielsen @optimalsalesmindset. Stratton was featured a couple months ago on episode 73 where we talked about how to feel your best while selling. In that episode we talked about his experience doing door to door sales and after 4 years getting hit with severe anxiety and feeling controlled by his emotions. He taught us how to change our perspective with our mind and not view it as the one in control... but understanding that there is a deeper true self that ultimately is in control. Today we piggyback on this discussion. We do a little refresher on this mindset and go more into the mechanics of how to use this new perspective to help you perform better. Stratton gives you step by step practices you can use to help you maximize your control over your emotions and thoughts. This episode is dedicated to all levels of experience. If you have moments of frustration or wanting to quit... we talk exactly how to view these feelings, and making sure the decision you make is completely aligned with your WHY for doing this job. Hope you enjoy.
Mike and Steve interviewed Coach Ryan Nielsen, the Saints' former defensive line coach and current senior defensive assistant for the Buffalo Bills. Nielsen discussed his relationship with legendary defensive line coach Pete Jenkins, future Hall of Fame Saints defensive end Cam Jordan, and former LSU head football coach Ed Orgeron. Nielsen emphasized the importance of winning football games in the trenches.

Our June episode is a two-for-one, as we have two credit union leaders and recent graduates of WCMS for you. Marlene Nielsen is the Payments Manager at Granite CU and Elise Schexnayder is the Director of Professional Development for the California Credit Union League. Both graduated from WCMS last year as part of the Phi Class. They join the Frogcast today to talk about public speaking skills. Third year students are required to present a topic to a panel before graduating, and Marlene and Elise had very different reactions to learning this news. Along with their classmates, they decided to schedule some formal practice time for their class. This practice, however, continued well beyond the class presentation itself and became a CU-based Toastmasters group in partnership with the WCMS Alumni Association. Marlene and Elise share with us the growth, skills, and takeaways they gained from their Toasmasters and WCMS experiences.
"As homes get tighter, ventilation isn't optional—it's essential." — Patrick Nielsen In this episode of RESTalk, host Bill Spohn sits down with Patrick Nielsen, Global Technical Products Manager at Broan-NuTone, to discuss the evolving world of home ventilation. With over two decades of experience, Patrick walks us through the major drivers shaping residential ventilation practices today—from tighter building envelopes to the growing emphasis on indoor air quality and energy efficiency. Patrick explains the importance of dwelling unit ventilation (DUV), spot vs. whole-house strategies, and the increasing role of energy recovery ventilators (ERVs) as builders and raters seek practical ways to meet stringent codes and achieve better HERS scores. He also touches on upcoming developments like capture efficiency standards for range hoods, automated balancing features in modern ERVs, and the implications of makeup air requirements. Whether you're a builder, rater, or HVAC pro, this episode is packed with actionable insights for navigating the ventilation challenges in today's high-performance homes.

The alternative currency bucket could use a rebrand. That referential and somewhat deferential phraseology – a reference to Nielsen – drives Peter Liguori, VideoAmp's executive chairman, a little nuts. It stems, he argues, from the “absurd notion” that the TV industry “has almost 100% of its eggs in one basket.”

In this episode, AdTechGod interviews James Rosewell, co-founder of Movement for an Open Web, discussing the evolution of the open web, the implications of the Privacy Sandbox, the importance of web browsers, and the future of regulation in the digital advertising landscape. They explore the impact of political changes on antitrust initiatives and the need for market certainty, while also providing resources for listeners to stay informed about these developments. Takeaways James Rosewell founded Movement for an Open Web to address concerns about the Privacy Sandbox. The open web must offer advertisers a good return on investment and protect content rights. Privacy Sandbox can now compete on its merits without coercion from Google. Web browsers play a crucial role in the digital advertising ecosystem. Regulation is needed to ensure fair competition in the browser market. Political changes are influencing antitrust motivations in the US. Market certainty is essential during the appeal process for Google. The European Commission is taking steps towards divestiture of Google. Funding models for web browsers need to be reevaluated. Resources are available for those wanting to learn more about the open web movement. Chapters 00:00 Introduction to the Open Web Movement 01:29 The Birth of Movement for an Open Web 04:09 Antitrust and Privacy Sandbox Insights 06:02 The Role of Web Browsers in Advertising 10:00 Regulation and the Future of Browsers 12:10 Political Changes and Their Impact 14:00 Looking Ahead: Opportunities and Challenges 16:33 Resources for Further Learning AI Anxiety, Media Shakeups & the Social Disconnect In this episode of The Refresh, Kait breaks down a pivotal week in Adland marked by existential questions around AI, massive corporate restructuring, and the steady evolution of streaming. From WPP's dramatic rebrand and layoffs to the Meta antitrust trial's conclusion and fresh Nielsen numbers, the episode weaves together the mounting pressure of rapid technological change and its human cost. Key Discussion Points: WPP rebrands Group M as “WPP Media” under an AI-first strategy, but the move triggers confusion and layoffs impacting up to 45% of staff. The broader advertising industry is facing an AI reckoning, as companies move faster than ever with minimal oversight or infrastructure for displaced workers. Meta's antitrust trial wraps, with the FTC accusing the company of a “buy or bury” strategy—highlighting internal emails and challenging definitions of competition. Despite social media's waning ability to foster community, creator marketing continues to boom—but may need reevaluation for long-term brand building. Nielsen's April report shows streaming now holds 44% of total TV usage, with ad-supported content making up 72% of viewership; Grey's Anatomy tops the charts. Learn more about your ad choices.
