On today's podcast:1) A record-setting 41-day US government shutdown is on a path to end as soon as Wednesday after the Senate passed a temporary funding measure backed by a group of eight centrist Democrats. The Senate’s 60-40 vote Monday comes amid escalating flight disruptions, food aid delays and frustrations in a federal workforce that has mostly gone without pay for more than a month. The Republican-controlled House must still approve the spending package, which keeps most of the government open through Jan. 30 and some agencies through Sept. 30. But Speaker Mike Johnson said he expects it will pass quickly.2) Air travel disruptions mounted across the US as lawmakers pushed to end the federal government shutdown, with an air traffic controllers’ union warning of “the erosion of safety” as the critical workers missed their second-straight full paycheck. Almost 2,100 flights were canceled as of 6:15 p.m. in New York on Monday, according to data compiled by aviation analytics firm Cirium. That’s about 8.2% of the day’s 25,735 scheduled flights. Chicago O’Hare International Airport had the most cancellations, with nearly 25% of its scheduled flights scrapped. Over 16% of services in and out of Boston Logan Airport were scrubbed, as were 15% of trips at New York City’s LaGuardia Airport. The growing fallout stems from the Federal Aviation Administration’s directive to reduce flight capacity by 10% at the roughly 40 busiest US airports, a bid to alleviate what US aviation officials have said are signs of strain in the nation’s airspace system.3) President Trump said he “at some point” would reduce the tariff rate on Indian goods, saying the US was getting “pretty close” to a trade deal with New Delhi. The comments were the latest signal of a possible thaw in the trade dispute that has soured the relationship between Washington and New Delhi. Earlier this year, Trump slapped additional tariffs on India’s exports to the US in part to pressure New Delhi to stop buying Russian oil, raising the rates on many Indian goods to 50%. That added tensions to an already contentious negotiation over what the US has cast as India’s high levies and other barriers on American goods.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In The Lavender Ladies' Summer Pact, midsummer has arrived in Alder Vale — but something in the air feels slightly off. The bees are uneasy, the lavender blooms shy, and the village well stands lower than it should. Then comes the gentle knock at Nell Rowan's door.Mrs. Harcourt — back straight as a chimney brush, hat pinned like duty itself — appears to remind Nell of something long forgotten: a pact once kept by the Lavender Ladies, a group of wise women who quietly tended not only to the people of the village but to the land itself.As Nell and Mrs. Harcourt walk together through hedgerows and memories, they revive the threefold Summer Pact —Return, Refresh, Remember — bringing lavender and rosemary, cool water, and tokens of gratitude back to the places that have been overlooked.The story unfolds like a spell of gentle repair, reminding us that when we tend what's frayed — the soil, the edges, the heart — the world begins to breathe easier too.Blending soft mystery, folklore, and the comfort of English village life, The Lavender Ladies' Summer Pact continues the world of Whispering from the Rowan Tree, offering calm, wisdom, and renewal in equal measure.Themes:• Renewal and remembrance• The quiet power of women's traditions• Healing through ritual and kindness• Nature, intuition, and tending the edges of lifeIncludes:• A reflective narrative featuring Nell Rowan and Mrs. Harcourt• A guided visualization: A Small Summer Pact You Can Keep• A closing blessing — “May your path be kind underfoot, and may the lavender remember your name.”Perfect for reflective evenings, gentle sleep, or moments when you need to remember that small acts of care still matter.

Action Pact is one of four Head Start programs affected by the federal government shutdown in Georgia. More than 500 children and their families in southeast Georgia rely on Action Pact for food, educational services, and employment resources. However, due to the halt in federal funds, Executive Director Diane Rogers says they’ll have to stop providing that community support starting Monday, November 3. Close to 200 employees will also be furloughed. She spoke to “Closer Look” about how devastating this will be for those in need and how she’s working with Georgia lawmakers in Washington to recover some financial assistance.

When Lauren Inman-Semerau joined Pact, she found an 11-person team managing 13,000 monthly conversations with disconnected systems. Her solution? Refuse to compromise. In this episode, Lauren reveals how she's preparing PACT to grow in 2026 through strategic AI, tips on getting team buy-ins, unified data, and what she calls gritty innovation. 

Dr. Andrew Campbell, retired senior military strategist and peace leadership pioneer, shares insights on transforming toxic organizations and leading with emotional intelligence. He emphasizes that conflict is unavoidable, and the way leaders respond—rather than react—shapes organizational culture. Through his PACT framework, he teaches how to pinpoint root causes, acknowledge perspectives, collaborate on solutions, and take accountability to prevent recurring disputes. Leaders set the tone for a healthy or toxic environment, and understanding others' perspectives is key to resolving conflicts effectively. He also shares personal experiences of being a toxic leader early in his career and how 360-degree feedback and perspective exercises helped him transform his leadership style. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Dr. Campbell highlights how a leader's character, values, and principles shape their influence and legacy. He stresses the importance of listening to understand, acknowledging mistakes, and stepping outside personal perspectives to manage conflict effectively. Leaders must embrace growth, apply practical strategies to prevent disputes, and foster healthier organizational cultures. He explains that structured conflict management can save hours of wasted arguments and prevent employee turnover caused by toxic workplaces. Quotes: "Every relationship has conflict; how you manage it shapes your culture." "Leaders often react rather than respond, and that determines how people will follow or resist." "We focus on symptoms, but the real issue is often what is not being said." "Your character determines whether you inspire trust or create toxicity in your organization."

A fresh jolt in West Asia: Pakistan and Saudi Arabia have signed a Strategic Mutual Defense Agreement.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's newest podcast series, Friday Focus. Each Friday, join host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan and diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa said on Wednesday this week that ongoing negotiations with Israel to reach a security pact could lead to results “in the coming days.” However, later on Wednesday, an Israeli foreign ministry official told AFP that Syria will seal several security and military agreements with Israel by the end of the year. Despite the discrepancy in timing, it is clear that both countries are interested and invested in completing a security pact in the near future. On this week's Friday Focus, Berman reviews other previous pacts with Syria -- and attempts -- throughout Israel's history. We learn how the civil war in Syria and the fall of the Assad regime have recalibrated how Israel operates inside its neighbor to the north. And we hear about the conflicting Israeli feelings in losing a strong leader who kept the border relatively quiet. Finally, Berman discusses what Israel may demand from Syria -- where it's willing to withdraw and where it decidedly will not. Friday Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by the Pod-Waves. IMAGE: Lazar Berman (courtesy) / Syria's President Ahmad Al-Sharaa in Damascus, September 12, 2025.

Show Feature Sponsor: Precision Holsters VANQUISH AIWB   Get your Challenge Coin! https://train.americanwarriorsociety.com/home   HREC: https://shooting-performance.coursestorm.com/.../warrior...   On this episode of the American Warrior Show, Rich Brown sits down with Taylor Wright of Defenders and Disciples to discuss an innovative new training tool—the DAD BODD. Unlike traditional PACT-style timers that rely solely on audio response, the DAD BODD integrates a laser indicator system with precise timing functions to give shooters real-time, visual feedback on the range. We dive into: How the DAD BODD improves on conventional shot timers The benefits of visual + audio cues for training under pressure Practical applications for defensive shooters, competitors, and instructors Where this tool fits in the future of firearms training If you're serious about sharpening your performance and want to see what's next in training technology, this episode is a must-listen. Taylor was an Infantry Marine assigned to Security forces where he was a member of the CQB Recapture Tactics Team (RTT). After the Marines Taylor went to school and got a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering. Then he did what all engineers do, he became a Cop? Taylor is now the founder of Defenders and Disciples.     Defenders and Disciples: https://defendersanddisciples.com/   DAD BODD: https://shop.defendersanddisciples.com/.../dadbodd-vip...
