BrownTown talks all things immigration under Trump 2.0, June protests in Los Angeles, and how ICE ain't shit with immigration attorney and new homie Khiabett Osuna. As Trump tests the waters of his draconian federal policies, financially backed by the Big [Fucking Ugly] Bill, and using ICE as his Gestapo-like muscle, we turn our focus to community resistance in all its forms. Khiabett leans into her work in and outside of the legal field as one piece of this larger puzzle to ensure that no human is illegal on stolen land. From protestors, organizers, and healers on the front lines in Los Angeles to mutual aid and rapid-response networks in Chicago, BrownTown and Khiabett unpack our neoliberal past, technofascist present, and what will be a desperate future unless we fight back. Originally recorded July 18, 2025. GUESTKhiabett Osuna is an attorney with Kriezelman Burton & Associates, LLC. While at DePaul College of Law, Khiabett worked at a local immigration firm and was involved in the Asylum Immigration Clinic. She volunteered with the CARA Family Detention Pro Bono Project in Dilley, Texas, helping screen women and children at the South Texas Family Detention Center who had recently arrived in the United States. After law school, Khiabett was hired through the Department of Justice Honors Program as a Judicial Law Clerk, where she clerked for Immigration Judges in El Paso and Fort Worth, Texas. She then worked at immigration firms in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, assisting clients primarily in removal proceedings. In Chicago, Khiabett works at a full service immigration law firm, continuing to represent clients in removal proceedings, as well as individuals seeking family based and humanitarian relief. She is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, the AILA Chicago Chapter Advocacy Committee, and the Federal Bar Association. Khiabett also volunteers at her local church providing consults to community members. Mentioned in the episode:Correction: WWII ended under U.S. President Harry S.

In this episode of OP Talks, Dr. Felipe Hinojosa, historian, professor, and endowed chair for Baylor in Latin America, talks with Dr. Gina M. Pérez, cultural anthropologist, professor and chair of Comparative American Studies at Oberlin, about her recent book Sanctuary People: Faith-based Organizing in Latina/o Communities (NYU Press, 2024).Drawing from historical activist communities in Northeast Ohio, particularly Lorain, and their mobilization efforts following the impact of Hurricane Maria on the Puerto Rican diaspora, to broader national responses, Dr. Pérez argues that sanctuary practices as expressions of care communities reveal that sanctuary people are “not born…but continually made through decisions, big and small…How do you live with your faith? How do you respond to injustice?” This discussion highlights the ongoing effort and commitment required to become a sanctuary person.

In this powerful episode of The Mel K Show, I welcome back geopolitical analyst Joaquin Flores, a man with decades of experience studying the intricacies of international banking, unions, and global power structures. Joining us from Belgrade, Joaquin brings a unique perspective on current events and explains why what we are witnessing today is truly historic. We begin by looking at the recent meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. Joaquin explains why this summit was far more than a symbolic handshake. Despite the noise from mainstream media, which seemed united in hoping for its failure, the meeting demonstrated diplomacy in action. From red carpets to protocol, the outrage from pundits only revealed how disconnected many are from the realities of international relations. Joaquin reminds us that diplomacy is not about childish theatrics. It is about respect, etiquette, and strategy. From there, our discussion dives deeper into what the summit signals for the future of global order. Joaquin highlights the convergence of interests between major powers and how this challenges the dominance of entrenched elites who thrive on perpetual conflict. He emphasizes that cooperation does not erase differences, but it does open doors for negotiation, stability, and opportunities that benefit ordinary citizens. We also examine the bigger picture of how unions, central banks, and corporate institutions intersect with international politics. Joaquin brings clarity to the way financial power shapes policy, explaining why the same establishment voices that push endless wars are also deeply tied to the debt-based economic system that enslaves nations. Understanding these connections is critical to seeing the full truth about where we are headed. Our conversation further explores the cultural decline that has left many unable to grasp the basics of diplomacy or governance. Joaquin points out how generations raised on shallow narratives and media manipulation are now shaping public discourse with little understanding of history, strategy, or responsibility. This, he argues, is part of the reason why so many people misinterpret important world events. Here is what you will learn in this episode: Why the Trump-Putin summit was a historic moment with lasting consequences How diplomacy and protocol are misunderstood by media and political elites The role of international banking and unions in shaping world events Why cooperation among great powers threatens the entrenched global elite How cultural and intellectual decline has weakened the public's ability to understand world affairs This conversation with Joaquin Flores is a reminder that the headlines rarely tell the real story. To understand the world stage, we must look beyond the surface and examine the systems of power, the strategies of nations, and the interests of those who profit from chaos. Joaquin's insights cut through the noise and provide the kind of clarity that every informed citizen needs. At a time when fear and division are pushed daily, this discussion offers perspective, context, and hope that a different path is possible if we are willing to demand accountability and recognize the deeper truths at play.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: First—President Donald Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and a coalition of European leaders struck an optimistic note about the prospects of ending Russia's war on Ukraine during an unprecedented gathering at the White House on Monday. Later in the show—Hungary lashes out at Kyiv, accusing Ukraine of mounting what they called an "outrageous and unacceptable" attack that disabled a Russian oil pipeline supplying the NATO ally. Plus—a growing number of Palestinians are reportedly turning on Hamas and preparing for a future without the terror group in power. But as the discontent spreads, Hamas is striking back with brutal violence against their own civilians, executing critics wherever they find them. In our 'Back of the Brief—the bromance between Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un deepens, as the Russian strongman sends a personal letter to Kim heaping praise on what he called the "heroic" efforts of North Korean troops fighting in Ukraine. The two belligerent powers have vowed to expand their military ties to forge a "just and multi-polar world order."

Many L&D teams are under pressure to deliver business impact—but are held back by disorganisation, unclear positioning, and a lack of strategic focus. In this episode, Guus van Deelen, author of Organising L&D for Results, shares a practical approach for transforming how L&D functions operate from the inside out. Drawing on his experience and research, Guus explores why traditional L&D structures fall short, how organisational context shapes what “good” looks like, and why it's time for L&D to get closer to the business. He introduces key tools like the L&D Quick Scan and the five L&D ‘chessboards' that help leaders navigate complexity, make conscious trade-offs, and align their teams for real impact. Guus unpacks the value of structured experimentation, the trade-offs of reporting lines, and how L&D can move from a reactive service to a proactive, credible partner in driving performance. For L&D professionals looking to bring clarity, structure, and business relevance to their function, this episode is a timely and actionable guide. Take your L&D to the next level Take advantage of thousands of hours of analysis. Hundreds of conversations with industry innovators and 25+ years of hands-on global L&D leadership. It's all distilled into one framework to help you level up L&D. Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS · Don´t let day to day tasks stop you from spending time ensuring your L&D department is working optimally. · Stop serving the person who shouts loudest. · Automate your admin and processes, if you don´t the business will replace you. · Truly immerse yourself in the business. · L&D Quick Scan is effective and free to download. BEST MOMENTS “Making sure an L&D department is set up for success is very fundamental to everything you want to do .” “An L&D department is never done; it's more about keeping things moving and constantly improving.” “It's not about talking with a manager. It's about going out there, listen, smell, feel. What´s the root cause?” Guus van DeelenGuus van Deelen is a seasoned L&D leader, consultant, speaker, and author of Organising L&D for Results (original Dutch: Leren organiseren). He began his career leading L&D teams at major multinational organisations such as FrieslandCampina, ProRail and SHV, gaining deep insights into the complexities and “messiness” of internal L&D operations. For the past six years, Guus has been operating as an independent consultant, working with over 100 L&D departments across sectors including government, retail, industry, and financial services. He guides organisations through the (re)positioning of their L&D functions—helping teams define governance, structure, and strategy to drive measurable business impact. His first book offers a robust model and actionable methods, including the L&D Quick Scan and the five strategic “chessboards”, that L&D leaders can use to build teams that are credible, aligned, and structured for scale . https://www.linkedin.com/in/guusvandeelen/details/experience Organising L&D for Results book: https://www.amazon.com/Organizing-results-Managing-Learning-Maximum/dp/9462724407 L&D QuickScan and more: https://guusvandeelen.nl/en/downloads RESOURCES The Learning And Development Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-learning-development-podcast/id1466927523 L&D Master Class Series: https://360learning.com/blog/l-and-d-masterclass-home This Podcast has been brought to you by Disruptive Media https://disruptivemedia.co.uk

Associates on Fire: A Financial Podcast for the Associate Dentist
In this episode of The Dental Boardroom Podcast, Wes Read, CPA, CFP, continues the series on turning financial chaos into financial freedom for dental practice owners. Building on previous episodes covering team assembly, personal financial planning, and implementation strategies, Wes dives deep into the third step: developing a business financial plan that supports your personal financial goals.He explains why organizing your financial reporting is the foundation for success, how to interpret monthly financial “X-rays” of your practice, and why understanding your break-even points is critical for long-term wealth accumulation.Whether you're aiming to stabilize cash flow or strategically grow your practice, this episode offers the insights you need to take the next step toward financial clarity and independenceVisual Reference: Break-Evens ChartKey PointsDeveloping a business financial plan is step three in the dental financial planning journey.Organizing financial reporting (balance sheet, income statement, forecast) provides a monthly “X-ray” of your practice's health.Practice CFO's monthly CFO Analysis offers in-depth trend data, industry comparisons, and a “Where Did My Cash Go?” report.Understanding break-even points helps track when collections start contributing toward personal wealth.Fixed costs (rent, labor, marketing, administrative expenses, debt) make up 75–85% of a dental practice's expenses.Variable costs (labs, supplies, merchant fees) fluctuate with production and collections.Dental practices' high fixed cost structure can amplify the impact of slow months on cash reserves.Hitting break-even levels for obligations, debt, taxes, and personal pay is necessary before wealth accumulation begins.#DentalBoardroomPodcast #DentalFinancialPlanning #DentalPracticeManagement #DentalBusinessTips #DentistWealth #BreakEvenPoint #DentalCFO #FinancialFreedomForDentists #DentalBusinessGrowth #DentalPracticeOwners
Discover the science of persuasive messaging with communications expert Anat Shenker-Osorio in this compelling archive episode from Benn Marine's former podcast, Ocean of Organizing. While the Campfire team dives into 2026 planning, this conversation from 2019 remains strikingly relevant for anyone crafting messages that move people to action.Anat, whose research has appeared in The Atlantic, Boston Globe, and The Guardian, shares game-changing insights about how progressive campaigns can craft winning messages. She breaks down the fundamental flaws in typical progressive communication—what she calls the "Boy, have I got a problem for you?" approach—and offers a powerful alternative framework that starts with shared values rather than problems.Beyond specific messaging tactics, this episode explores the deeper philosophy of movement building. Anat emphasizes that effective campaigns focus on what they're for rather than what they oppose, noting that "what we fight, we feed." She shares examples from successful campaigns around the world—from New Zealand's election of Jacinda Ardern to Minnesota's defeat of Islamophobia—showcasing how positive, values-based messaging transforms outcomes.Whether you're planning a campaign, crafting organizational messaging, or simply curious about how language shapes our political landscape, this conversation offers invaluable tools for communicating with impact. Listen for practical frameworks you can immediately apply to your own work, and discover why creating hope through positive messaging remains essential even in challenging times.ASO Communications – This is Anat's website and where you can learn more about her and her research.

In this episode, we challenge the all-or-nothing mindset around decluttering and organizing. Not everyone is a minimalist, and not every item needs to go in a donation bag to count as progress. We explore the emotional and personal work of deciding what to keep—not just what to toss—and why organizing is ultimately about awareness and alignment with the life you're building today.This is a gentle reminder that organizing with intention doesn't have to mean constant letting go. Sometimes, it starts with simply asking the right question: What still deserves a place in my life right now?In this episode we talk about:Why organizing doesn't always mean throwing things awayThe importance of clarity, not speed, in the decluttering processA mindset shift from “What should I toss?” to “What do I want to keep?”Mentioned in this Episode:A seasonal mindset check-in: embracing where you are right nowThe emotional work behind identity and organizingWeekly organizing nudges from the Organize & Cherish newsletterReview full show notes and resources at https://theorganizedflamingo.com/podcast Hosted on Acast.
