In this episode of The Chad & Cheese Podcast, hosts Chad Sowash and Joel Cheesman interview Patrick McGee, a former Financial Times reporter and author of Apple in China: The Capture of the World's Greatest Company. The discussion delves into McGee's book, which explores Apple's transformative relationship with China, its massive investments, and the unintended consequences for global tech and geopolitics. The interview covers McGee's research process, Apple's control over its narrative, the scale of its investments in China, and the broader implications for manufacturing, workforce development and U.S.-China relations. Timeline Just give me the main bullet points, without the Key Points and Key Points McGee's Background (00:29–02:08): McGee's Financial Times reporting in Hong Kong, Germany, and on Apple shaped Apple in China, focusing on China's authoritarianism, supply chains, and Apple's operations. Research Process (02:08–05:00): Over 200 interviews and 1,000+ pages of unreported Apple documents reveal novel insights into manufacturing, bypassing Apple's product-focused narrative. Apple's Narrative Control (05:00–08:31): Apple steers media toward product features, obscuring key figures like Isabel Gamahi and critical China operations. Apple's Investment (2013–2016) (08:31–15:16): Beijing's 2013 media attacks led to a $55 billion annual investment by 2015, with Cook's $275 billion pledge in 2016, likened to double the Marshall Plan. China's Workforce (Pre-2016) (15:16–17:08): Apple trained 28 million workers, enabling competitors like Huawei, with China realizing this impact in 2016.

Vocational Training (Present) (30:06–33:58): Apple's China training, akin to Germany's system, empowered Chinese firms; U.S. could adopt similar models. Geopolitical Outlook (Present–2025) (33:58–39:02): India's role is limited; China's manufacturing dominance persists, with Apple's AI lag adding risk. EVs and China's Lead (2019–Present) (39:02–42:46): Tesla's 2019 operations boosted China's EV dominance; West struggles with battery supply chain control.

People who possess spiritual leadership must demonstrate integrity in their private and public lives..

Acts 10 tells the story of Cornelius, a Roman centurion who feared God and did good works, but still needed salvation through Jesus. At the same time, God was preparing Peter to overcome cultural boundaries to share the Gospel. This moment marked a historic breakthrough: salvation was not just for the Jews, but for everyone. This story reminds us that God is already moving in the hearts of people before we even show up. As we obey, God opens doors for His Kingdom to be advanced through our lives.Pastor Parris HayashiSunday June 15, 2025 Live at 9:15 AM

In this installment of our Workplace Strategies Watercooler 2025 podcast series, three key members of our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Compliance Practice Group—Simone Francis (St. Thomas/New York), Scott Kelly (Birmingham), and Nonnie Shivers (Phoenix)—address the status of DEI initiatives as they face unprecedented scrutiny. The speakers start by level setting about the status of equal employment opportunity laws, Title VII, Section 1981, and protected characteristics, while outlining strategies for adapting to increased DEI oversight and initiatives from the new administration. Nonnie (who co-chairs the firm's DEI Compliance Practice Group) drills down on the guardrails organizations can put in place regarding resource and affinity groups in the workplace, in addition to the legal status of quotas and preferences. Simone shares perspectives on the importance of identifying the goals of resource groups when assessing their legality and utility for an organization, and whether organizations have used objective data in designing these programs. Scott probes the usefulness of data regarding the policies, design, and implementation of resource groups especially when ensuring the practices of these groups do not go far afield from the policies used to implement them. Finally, Scott stresses the importance of internal and external communications about these programs while assessing these resource programs.

Gerry Connolly, the longtime Virginia Democratic congressman responsible for some of the most influential federal IT reform legislation of the past two decades, died Wednesday after a battle with cancer. He was 75. Connolly's family shared in a public message that the Northern Virginia congressman “passed away peacefully at his home this morning surrounded by family.” “Gerry lived his life to give back to others and make our community better. He looked out for the disadvantaged and voiceless,” they wrote. “He always stood up for what is right and just. He was a skilled statesman on the international stage, an accomplished legislator in Congress, a visionary executive on the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, a fierce defender of democracy, an environmental champion, and a mentor to so many. But more important than his accomplishments in elected office, Gerry lived by the ethos of ‘bloom where you are planted.'” While Connolly served on a variety of committees during his 16-year career in the House of Representatives, including an assignment on the Committee on Foreign Relations that spanned the entirety of his service, he was most known in the federal technology community for his leadership on the Oversight and Reform Committee, during which he made agency accountability for modernization and cybersecurity a staple issue. A White House group helmed by national security adviser Stephen Miller and other homeland security-focused leaders has taken up a new focus: evaluating the federal government's powerful biometrics program. The Homeland Security Council is now working with federal agencies and departments to review “all biometrics programs to ensure they perform as efficiently and effectively as possible,” Abigail Jackson, a spokesperson for the White House, told FedScoop on Tuesday. “The Safety and Security of the American People is the President's highest priority,” Jackson said. “Biometric screening and vetting programs are a vital part of the Administration's efforts to protect U.S. Citizens.” The review comes amid recent FedScoop reporting that the Department of Government Efficiency has extended its operations to the Office of Biometric Identity Management, a small but influential office within DHS that helps oversee one of the world's largest biometric databases.

They Never Tested the Blood! Eric Faddis on the Stunning Oversight in the Karen Read Case In this jaw-dropping episode, Attorney Eric Faddis helps us unpack one of the most baffling oversights in the Karen Read case: blood was discovered on key objects in the house where John O'Keefe was last seen alive — but it was never tested. How does that even happen? We take a hard look at what this missing forensic testing could mean for the integrity of the entire investigation. Blood on a cup, a kitchen item, and even on interior surfaces might have held critical answers — but according to courtroom testimony, those samples were never analyzed. Eric walks us through the legal fallout of such a lapse: Is this just bad police work, or something more strategic? And could it ultimately derail the prosecution's narrative? We also examine how this revelation plays with jurors. Does it feed the defense's claim that Karen Read is the target of a botched and biased investigation? Or will the prosecution argue that the untested samples don't matter — that the case is strong enough without them? This episode is for anyone who's ever asked, “Why didn't they test that?” — and wants a real answer from someone who's been on both sides of the courtroom.

News around public lands these days seems to revolve entirely around the Trump administration. In the case of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, many of the steps the administration is taking with the operational efficiencies of the National Park Service and other land management agencies certainly are keeping PEER busy.   But what exactly is PEER, and what is their mission? For as long as the National Parks Traveler has been in existence, going back 20 years, stories recounting PEER and its lawsuits against land-management agencies have appeared frequently in our coverage. To explain the nonprofit organization's role, our guest today is Tim Whitehouse, PEER's executive director.

Last week, the "Understanding UAP: Science, National Security & Innovation" event was held in Washington, D.C., in collaboration with the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and included members of Congress and leading UAP experts. Luis Elizando, a UFO whistleblower, presented a peculiar image of a flying craft taken over the Four Corners area, close to the alleged alien underground base in Dulce, NM. Additionally, Dr. Hal Puthoff, who worked on the government's psychic spy and UFO research programs, revealed the US military has recovered more than 10 crashed UFOs since the 1940s. Is our government feigning real disclosure to hide advanced technology and alien life above and below us? Tonight on Ground Zero (7-10 pm, pacific time on groundzeroplus.com), Clyde Lewis talks with UFO researcher and co-owner of Contact in the Desert, Ron Janix. #groundzeroplus #ClydeLewis #UFO #contactinthedesert #aliens #UndergroundBase
