Podcasts about Vice president

For years, Vice President JD Vance came to know Charlie not merely as an ally, but as a beloved friend. Today, Vance takes up the microphone for his fallen friend and hosts The Charlie Kirk Show. Vance brings on Stephen Miller, Karoline Leavitt, Tucker Carlson, RFK Jr., and more to remember the man who has become an immortal American hero and Christian martyr.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On September 11, twenty-four years ago, I saw the Twin Towers crumble to dust. And then, on September 11th this time around, I saw so many people grieving the shocking assassination of a hugely popular Gen Z influencer in front of 3,000 people. In both cases, millions of people were devastated in disbelief and grief. Including reporters, politicians, law enforcement people - and lots of ordinary folks. And certainly the 2001 tragedy had a scope much greater, but this assassination hit many young people very personally. I found myself praying, again, what I cried out to God 24 years ago. "God, what do You see here?" The answer has been the same both times. Souls. Lost souls. Grieving souls. Eternal souls. I'm Ron Hutchcraft, and I want to have A Word With You today about "A Fatal Shot, A Wounded Generation." Working with young people my entire life, I've seen many of them become less engaged with their world and with current events. A lot of them know more about Taylor Swift's love life but can't find Ukraine on a map or tell you the name of the Vice President. But they were drawn to Charlie Kirk, and he was dedicated to involving them in the major issues of our time. A prime time CNN host said: "If you don't know who Charlie Kirk is, ask your teenager or your college student." He was, in a sense, a generational prophet to many of them. He had over five million followers on X (formerly Twitter) and hundreds of thousands of listeners to his podcast and radio program. A lot of people have said that this generation is disconnected. But listen, they connected with Charlie Kirk. To countless millions of young people, he was finally a voice they could trust. Suddenly, he was gone. For me, this isn't about Charlie Kirk's politics or his culture war perspectives. It is, of course, about his wife Erika and their two children. I'm so glad the Bible says, "the Lord is close to the brokenhearted" (Psalm 34:18). She has a relationship with Him. I pray Jesus will hold them close in His big arms. I do see what God showed me on that dark September 11 years ago. Those souls. The emotional outpouring that has flooded social media gives testimony to the deep sense of personal loss so many young people are feeling now. After the tragic events of September 11, 2001, there was a hole in our hearts that none of our usual "go to" answers could fill. So we turned to God. Churches were full. Prayer was everywhere. Many people opened their hearts to Jesus who died for them and beat death by His Resurrection. For many contemporary young people, this recent loss has left their own hole in their heart. That's where it's about "souls." This trauma will be, for many, a "turning point." Sadly for some, to anger, retribution, disillusionment, despair. All destinations devoid of hope. Or to Jesus, whose hope is stronger than death, guaranteed by an empty tomb. Which brings us to our word for today from the Word of God, which happens to be a verse that Charlie's wife posted hours before his death. Psalm 46:1 - "God is our refuge and strength. An ever present help in trouble." We are desperate for a generation that doesn't carry all our baggage. A spiritual awakening may well be our only real hope. And our young people may be our only real hope of a better tomorrow. I'm praying the death of a looked-to leader may lead them to the Leader whose life and hope are eternal. Jesus called us to tell our world about His unloseable love - and then to let them experience that love through us. That was his final order. I think about the Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, where the guard coming on and the guard coming off exchange these words. The current guard says, "Orders remain unchanged." And the new guard says, "Orders acknowledged." We have our orders from our Master - to be His witnesses. No matter the loss, no matter the cost. Our orders remain unchanged.

This week we sit down with Suzanne Konstance, Vice-President and General Manager for Legal and Regulatory US at Wolters Kluwer. She outlines how the company supports professionals in highly regulated fields with software and authoritative content. Operations span multiple countries with a deliberately local approach, where teams design solutions for each market. Listeners get a clear view of scope, from enterprise legal management to recent additions such as Brightflag, alongside deep subject expertise.Konstance explains a core focus on regulatory compliance across securities, tax, IP, and employment. The aim is simple, help clients stay out of court. Continuous change drives editorial work, with authors and editors tracking shifts, executive orders, and practical effects. Provenance, version history, and context matter, supported by structured meta tagging which helps search and AI retrieve the right source every time.In a segment on trust, the conversation moves to standards for accuracy and auditability. Clients tell Wolters Kluwer quality outranks speed for research, so the team emphasizes authoritative sources and transparent sourcing. Konstance walks through a recent non-exclusive content license with Harvey for primary law from US and German collections, part of a broader collaboration strategy which also includes VitalLaw AI and new cross-border features. The goal is a reliable workflow where answers cite sources, show currency, and fit real practice.Real user labs reinforce these priorities. At AALL, librarians worked hands-on in a sandbox session with no guided prompts, pushing tools to limits and asking tough questions. One theme dominated, transparency, with live citations and source trails visible during use. Editors remain in the loop to curate likely questions, collect feedback, and refine outputs, while openness about progress helps teams separate market sizzle from dependable results.Looking ahead, Konstance expects roles to shift toward managing agents and setting clear instructions, similar to supervising a room full of interns, with strong expertise still required for oversight. Teams will need to train newcomers on fundamentals, auditing, and controls, so technology serves professionals, not the reverse. She also shares sources she follows, industry conversations with customers, conferences, LinkedIn, X, plus guidance from a long-standing internal Center of Excellence for AI.

Networking isn't just for job hunting — it's the long-term career insurance policy that carries you through promotions, layoffs, and everything in between. And in a world of AI, real career decisions still rely on real people. In this episode of Secrets of the Career Game, Kendall Berg sits down with Catherine Fisher, LinkedIn's career expert and author of the Career Companion newsletter, to unpack how authentic networking really works in 2025.

Catherine offers practical, low-stress strategies to change that — from keeping your network warm with simple gestures to approaching executives without wasting their time. From Gen Z's mini-resumes to the do's and don'ts of authentic outreach, this conversation will change how you think about building relationships and remind you why human connection still matters most. In this episode, we discuss: What role does networking have to play in the full picture of our careers? Why is networking more important than ever today? How are traditional networking practices changing with technology and culture? What's driving the latest networking trends? How is Gen Z rewriting the rules of networking?

‘I'm very confident that someday soon we're going to have government as good as our people again'Paddy O'Connell speaks to former US Vice President Mike Pence about President Trump's second term in office. Pence, whose political career began a quarter of a century ago, first rose to international prominence when he was selected by Donald Trump to be his running mate for the 2016 US Presidential election.When the insurgent billionaire shocked the world by defeating Hillary Clinton, Pence found himself at the centre of an administration beset by multiple controversies from the very beginning, including having to navigate impeachment proceedings against his boss.The pair, however, weren't always aligned in their worldviews, and the relationship became increasingly frayed behind closed doors. Formal ties were severed when Pence resisted efforts by Trump to overturn his election defeat to Joe Biden in 2020.After leaving the post of Vice-President, Pence remained active in politics in the years that followed, eventually running for the Republican nomination for the 2024 Presidential election. This was, of course, won by his old boss - but Pence refused to endorse him the second time around.Despite the turbulent four years in office, he remains proud of what he and Trump achieved in that time. However, he can now speak more freely about his former boss, who is back in the White House for a second term.His experience at the very top of American politics also gives him unique insight into events both at home and abroad. In this wide-ranging interview, he discusses many pressing issues including vaccine scepticism, global tariffs and the Russian invasion of Ukraine.Thank you to the Newsnight team for their help in making this programme.

Li Wang Better every day. That's the way I aspire to live. I was born in 1973 in Philadelphia. My parents immigrated from Taipei and my dad's first job out of graduate school was in Philadelphia. I'm a die-hard Eagles fan and being raised in that city has shaped my identity. Hip-hop culture served as my first artistic influence. Run-DMC, Public Enemy and the Beastie Boys shaped how I created my own environment. During the summer of O.J. trial I interned at the Philadelphia Daily News. I became hooked on journalism. I went on to another internship at the Des Moines Register and started my career as a business reporter for the Times of Trenton. I was the arts editor for the Honolulu Weekly and then the film critic for the Harrisburg Patriot-News.

Wade Brown is the Vice President of Marketing at cbdMD, a publicly traded company known for its CBD and cannabis product lines. He is a seasoned executive with expertise across ecommerce, B2B and B2C channels, digital advertising, and strategic partnerships. Wade has led marketing for restricted product categories, including CBD, THC beverages, firearms, and tactical gear, with leadership roles at SupplyKick, Inc Authority, NatureWise, among others. At cbdMD, he drives customer acquisition and creative ad strategies, spearheading the launch of the Herbal Oasis infused beverage line and securing distribution with major retailers like Total Wine. In this episode… When the usual ad channels become crowded, expensive, or off-limits, many brands can get stuck with limited growth options. For companies in restricted categories, the challenge is even greater: How do you reach high-quality customers while staying compliant and profitable? Could a lesser-known platform like AppLovin be the untapped opportunity these brands need? According to Wade Brown, a seasoned marketing leader with deep expertise in restricted product categories, AppLovin has become one of the most reliable top-of-funnel acquisition channels. He highlights that the platform delivers trackable, high-quality traffic, often outperforming Meta and TikTok. The key, Wade explains, is repurposing proven creatives like UGC videos while also testing interactive HTML ads that offer richer engagement. By treating AppLovin as a funnel starter rather than expecting immediate conversions, brands can nurture audiences more effectively and expand reach into new markets. This strategic approach helps restricted brands capture authentic traffic and build sustainable campaigns. In this episode of the Minds of Ecommerce, Raphael Paulin-Daigle interviews Wade Brown, VP of Marketing at cbdMD, about how AppLovin helps restricted brands scale customer acquisition. Wade discusses the advantages of HTML ads, how to repurpose winning creatives, and the importance of patience in testing. He also shares insights into funnel measurement, traffic quality, and common mistakes marketers make when evaluating new platforms.

Interview with Tyler Hill, Vice President of Geology, i-80 GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/i-80-gold-tsxiau-14m-oz-resource-base-targets-mid-tier-producer-status-7786Recording date: 9th September 2025i-80 Gold is systematically advancing five Northern Nevada gold projects toward production through extensive drilling campaigns and feasibility studies, with completion targets set for Q1 2026 and Q1 2027. The company operates three high-grade underground mines (Granite Creek, Cove, Ruby Hills) and two oxide open pit projects under a strategic hub-and-spoke processing model.The company has demonstrated significant commitment to resource definition through comprehensive drilling programs. At Cove, the flagship project, i-80 Gold completed 45,000 meters of drilling over two years, with feasibility study completion planned for Q1 2026. At Granite Creek, 14,000 meters of infill drilling on 50-meter spacing is planned for 2025, focused on converting inferred resources to measured and indicated categories. The Ruby Hills Archimedes Underground component will begin drilling later in 2025, continuing through 2026, with feasibility study completion targeted for Q1 2027.A key differentiator in i-80 Gold's strategy is the centralized processing hub utilizing existing infrastructure at Lone Tree. The facility features an autoclave processing system that handles refractory ores from the three underground mines, while heap leach pads remain at individual sites. This configuration reduces capital requirements for individual projects while creating operational synergies and cost efficiencies across the portfolio.Led by Vice President of Geology Tyler Hill, who brings over nine years of experience on the Cove project, the 15-person geology team leverages deep local expertise and established contractor relationships. The company utilizes contractor drilling services while maintaining in-house geological expertise at each site, providing operational flexibility and access to specialized capabilities.Beyond current development activities, i-80 Gold maintains significant brownfields exploration opportunities. Historical drilling across the sites was predominantly shallow, conducted during the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s when gold prices were substantially lower. Current gold price levels justify deeper exploration programs, potentially expanding resource bases across all projects. The company has developed robust geological models that have identified numerous brownfields targets for step-out exploration.i-80 Gold represents a focused precious metals development company with concentrated assets in Northern Nevada's prolific mining district. The geographic concentration provides access to established mining infrastructure, regulatory familiarity, and skilled labor pools while creating operational synergies through proximity. The sequential feasibility study releases, combined with potential resource expansions and exploration discoveries, create multiple value inflection points for investors seeking exposure to Nevada gold development.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/i-80-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

This is a preview of a premium episode. To hear the full episode, head to our Substack: ⁠https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/astro-teller-and-ivo-stivoric-why⁠ When a company talks about taking a “moonshot,” it often ends up being something trivial: a new emoji keyboard, or delivering a pizza in less than 30 minutes. But at X, the Moonshot Factory, which is part of Google, they're tackling some of the world's thorniest problems: sustainably feeding the world's population, climate change, education, and much more. Today we're speaking with Astro Teller, Captain of Moonshots, and Ivo Stivoric, Vice President at X. Astro has a PhD in artificial intelligence from Carnegie Mellon and wrote a prophetic 1997 novel about AI called Exegesis. He's the grandson of Edward Teller of Manhattan Project fame, but his own legacy is built on creating protected spaces where multidisciplinary teams can tackle humanity's biggest challenges—from self-driving cars to internet access delivered by balloons. Ivo leads a portfolio focused on climate, sustainability, and social justice. A designer by training who cut his teeth in the early days of wearable computing at Carnegie Mellon's Engineering Design Research Center, Ivo brings a unique perspective on bridging human needs with breakthrough technology. Together with Astro, he co-founded BodyMedia, one of the pioneering companies in wearable health monitors, which was later acquired by Jawbone. We chat with Astro and Ivo about how they've maintained one of tech's longest creative partnerships, why moonshots require unlearning everything you know about building products, and how they're using their "moonshot factory" push the boundaries of what's possible when you combine emerging technology with empathy for human needs.
