Wer uns schon länger hört, kennt unseren heutigen Gast bereits: Prof. Dr. Georg Schomerus, Stigmaforscher und Direktor der Psychiatrie am Uniklinikum Leipzig. Heute ist er da, um mit uns über sein Buch zu sprechen: »Katerland: Wie wir den Alkohol feiern, aber Menschen mit Abhängigkeit ausgrenzen und wirksame Alkoholpolitik verschlafen« das in dieser Woche im Beltz Verlag erscheint.Wir wollen wissen, wie er dazu gekommen ist, sich mit dem Stigma von Alkoholabhängigkeit auseinanderzusetzen, wieso er seine Gedanken in einem Buch festhalten wollte, wie die Alkoholindustrie vom Stigma profitiert und natürlich: wie wir ihren Lügen etwas entgegensetzen können.Wir verlosen unter allen Steady-Unterstützer:innen drei Exemplare von Georgs Buch. Wie du teilnehmen kannst, erfährst du im Newsletter – Da gibt es übrigens auch eine Leseprobe ohne Paywall. Bisherige Interviews mit Georg im SodaKlub:#173 Alkoholabhängigkeit: Sind wir selber schuld?#210 Wie das Sucht-Stigma auch Angehörige trifft#269 Ist Sucht heilbar?Falls du ein paar Grundlagen zum Thema Stigma nachlesen möchtest, haben wir auf unserer Website eine kleine Zusammenfassung geschrieben:https://www.sodaklub.com/stigmaRECOVERY WALK am 12.

On the podcast: hitting $10M ARR without ever testing a paywall, paying their own customers to help make video ads, and why you might want to turn away some potential customers.Top Takeaways:
KI-Wasserzeichen, Smart Glasses, Pegasus und die Rückkehr der Videothek – eine Folge voller Technik, die gleichzeitig genial und ein bisschen problematisch ist. Rüdiger Trost und Tobias Schrödel sprechen zunächst über einen ganz praktischen Digitalisierungsversuch: den Umzug einer eigenen Mail-Domain zu einem deutschen Anbieter. Eigentlich funktioniert alles – wäre da nicht Gmail, das die neuen Mails konsequent in den Spam-Ordner steckt. Dabei zeigt sich auch: KI kann beim Analysieren von Mail-Headern und Logfiles mittlerweile erstaunlich gute Unterstützung leisten. Danach geht es um das große KI-Thema der Folge: Wasserzeichen in KI-generierten Texten. Die beiden erklären, wie Anthropic über veränderte Wortwahrscheinlichkeiten ein statistisches Muster erzeugen kann und warum damit nicht unbedingt bewiesen wird, dass ein Text komplett von einer KI stammt. Auch die Grenzen solcher Verfahren kommen zur Sprache. Und was passiert, wenn künftig praktisch überall „AI generated“ draufsteht? Die beiden diskutieren Kennzeichnungspflichten, Werbeplakate, KI-generierte Werbung und die Frage, ob ein Label irgendwann so inflationär verwendet wird, dass es niemand mehr ernst nimmt. Weiter geht es mit Smart Glasses. Die Ray-Ban Meta und ähnliche Geräte können Fotos und Videos aufnehmen, ohne dass die Person neben einem unbedingt mitbekommt, dass gerade eine Kamera läuft. Ist das ein Fall für den Gesetzgeber oder kann der Markt das selbst regeln? Und warum sind Google Glasses schon vor Jahren zum gesellschaftlichen Problem geworden? Danach wird es praktisch: Apple-Kurzbefehle und Bedienungshilfen können deutlich mehr, als viele Nutzer wissen. Die beiden sprechen über Sprachbefehle, automatisierte Gesten und sogar zeitgesteuerte E-Mails – inklusive der Frage, ob eine automatisch versendete Mail irgendwann ein ziemlich gutes Tatort-Alibi abgeben könnte. Ein weiteres Highlight: Offline-KI auf dem Raspberry Pi. Ein Open-Source-Projekt kombiniert Spracherkennung, ein Sprachmodell und Sprachausgabe zu einem Live-Übersetzer, der ohne Cloud funktionieren soll. Natürlich inklusive der Frage, wie warm so ein Raspberry Pi dabei wird. Anschließend wird es wieder ernst: Apple warnt iPhone-Nutzer vor möglicher Pegasus-Spyware. Die beiden sprechen über staatlich eingesetzte Überwachungssoftware, Apples Sicherheitsstrategie und den Blockierungsmodus für besonders gefährdete Nutzer. Dann folgt ein besonders kurioser Security-Fall aus der Gaming-Welt: Cheat-Anbieter werden selbst zum Ziel eines möglichen Cyberangriffs. Im Raum steht der Verdacht, dass Activision einen Cheat-Anbieter angegriffen, Daten abgegriffen und Hardware-IDs von Cheatern blockiert haben könnte. Die spannende Frage: Darf man einen Regelbrecher mit einem Cyberangriff bekämpfen? Danach geht es um Paywalls, Abos und Mikrozahlungen. Warum kann man nicht einfach einen einzelnen hochwertigen Artikel für einen oder zwei Euro kaufen, anstatt gleich ein komplettes Zeitungsabo abschließen zu müssen? Und warum fühlt sich Streaming heute manchmal komplizierter an als eine Videothek vor 30 Jahren? Die Streaming-Diskussion führt direkt zur Rückkehr der Videotheken-Logik: mehrere Anbieter, unterschiedliche Lizenzen, immer mehr Abos und Inhalte, die plötzlich wieder verschwinden. Digital ist eigentlich besser – nur das Geschäftsmodell scheint zunehmend komplizierter zu werden. Zum Schluss geht es um Neuralink und die Idee, Sehen über eine direkte Verbindung zum Gehirn wiederherzustellen. Die Technologie könnte für blinde Menschen enorme Möglichkeiten eröffnen. Gleichzeitig diskutieren die beiden kritisch über Elon Musk, Neuralink und die Frage, ob solche Innovationen nicht besser in anderen Händen aufgehoben wären. Und natürlich darf die Vorstellung nicht fehlen, künftig einfach Nachtsicht als menschliche Superkraft zu besitzen. -- Links zur Folge immer auf https://podcast.ichglaubeeshackt.de/

After seven months away from the main feed, I'm back with an update and a peek behind the Patreon paywall.Over the course of this podcast, particularly the 'cult'ure series, we developed shorthand for something that's hard to name: "the drift" — the way ordinary cultures, well-intentioned ones, gradually erode personal agency without anyone intending harm. Not bad actors. Just systems that reward compliance and quietly punish deviation.After years of documenting how the drift happens (in wellness spaces, workplaces, intimate relationships, and political movements) I kept hitting the same wall. Understanding it isn't enough. There has to be an alternative. And it can't just be try harder or find better people.In this episode, I use a recent social media pile-on as a jumping-off point to unpack why the conversation keeps collapsing into two bad options — hyper-individualism on one end, identity-fusing collectivism on the other — and why neither one actually answers the question.I'm not ready to share the full direction of the research yet. But I'm getting closer. And I think you're going to recognize what I've been finding when you hear it.If you want to follow along in real time through the end of the year, join us at patreon.com/thedeeperpulse.Referenced In This Episode:My recent appearance on The Hard Skills Podcast with Dr. Mira BrancuSupport the showThe stories and opinions shared in this episode are based on personal experience and are not intended to malign any individual, group, or organization.Join The Deeper Pulse at Patreon for weekly bonus episodes + other exclusive bonus content.

A publisher with 10% monthly churn loses 70% of its subscribers in a year.In this episode, Pete sits down with Tyler from Newsletter Glue to break down subscriber churn, and where it actually starts. Tyler shares a real case: a publisher with a large subscriber base that grew for six years, then plateaued and started sliding. The cause wasn't pricing or content. They had never sent a single newsletter, not once, in six years.Newsletter engagement is one of the strongest predictors of retention. Subscribers who open newsletters regularly are about twice as likely to still be subscribed 12 months later. Pete lays out six concrete moves publishers can make to close the gap: drip campaigns for niche and news publishers, tracking quiet subscribers, fixing involuntary churn from failed payments, smarter cancel flows, cutting login friction, and pricing levers that reduce renewal pain points.What you'll learn:Why involuntary churn (failed payments) accounts for 20-40% of all churn, and how Stripe's payment intents plus services like ChurnBuster can cut it by 40% or moreHow The Moss Report's 18-email drip series onboards new readers like a course, and how the Wall Street Journal targets 100 days of engagementWhy niche publishers should package a drip series (not a single newsletter), while news publishers should build habit and routine around a fixed send timeHow personalization, like Mexico News Daily's opt-in regional editions, drives the highest engagement ratesWhy tracking "quiet" paid subscribers lets you intervene before they churn, and why archive content often outperforms fresh contentWhy the cancel flow matters: offering pauses, discounts, or downgrades before a subscriber leavesHow removing login friction with automatic login (Flowletter + Newsletter Glue) reduces support tickets and churnWhy monthly vs. annual pricing changes your churn exposure, and how tiered "good, better, best" plans give you a downgrade path instead of a cancellationResources mentioned:Newsletter Glue: newsletterglue.comLeaky Paywall: leakypaywall.comFlowletter: leakypaywall.com/flowletterList Builder: leakypaywall.com/list-builderLeaky Paywall Insights: insights.leakypaywall.comThe Publisher's AI Survival Guide (free): publisherrevenue.com/tool/the-publishers-ai-survival-guide/The Moss Report: themossreport.comMexico News Daily: mexiconewsdaily.comChurnBuster: churnbuster.io

General News 00:49 Amazon fixing bug that billed some AWS customers billions of dollars A bug in the AWS billing computation subsystem generated inflated billing estimates for some customers, with one Reddit user reporting a quoted estimate near 2.5 billion dollars for a single month. In contrast, others saw figures ranging from millions to hundreds of millions. The issue began late Thursday, and an initial rollback attempt on Friday morning failed to resolve it, suggesting the root cause was more complex than a recent configuration change. Amazon confirmed the billing estimates do not reflect actual usage or charges, meaning affected customers will not be responsible for the inflated amounts shown in the console. Amazon has not disclosed whether any accounts were suspended or paused due to the billing errors, leaving open questions about operational impact during the incident. The event highlights the importance of billing system reliability for cloud providers, since inaccurate estimates at this scale can cause confusion and concern even when the underlying charges are not real. 01:29 Justin – “Amazon doesn’t bill you in the middle of the month, so it’s a pretty low risk that you were gonna get billed or invoice directly on that date, unless you happen to already be overdue on a payment and you were happening to update your credit card at the same time. I don’t think that’s really a big risk for this particular scenario.” 05:04 County With 37 Data Centers Asks Schools to ‘Conserve Electricity' Listener note: Paywall article H

Paywall is not active yet!When things get desperate enough for the Working Class, Democrats are allowed to pass social welfare programs as a counter revolutionary pressure release valve like the proposed one-time billionaire wealth tax in California. It is the reformist illusion of progress while eventually, as the national security state solidifies itself and hunter killer AI packages have work their way into the drones of your local police department, there will be no more social programs. Social Security will expire, most homes, agricultural lands, natural resources will be monopolized by private equity which donates equally to both parties, and there will never, ever be universal basic income. But hey, at least you voted for the “lesser of two evils” and you can blame those independent swine for not voting “blue no matter who” and destroying your future. But the horrifying truth is that there is no red or blue - only imperial purple and you, peasant, do not wear the purple - only the caesars, our modern day billionaires and captains of industry. So we are going to talk about this most recent round of ICE killings, the revamped war with Iran, Lindsey Graham as a locus for examining how red and blue loves each other, the Imperial Boomerang theory for you newcomers, and the origin of policing as a counter insurgency force. There is no daylight between the for profit police state, and the for profit war state. And as always, we talk about what is to be done!#imperialboomerang #breakingnews #lindseygraham #dnc
Google traffic to publishers is down over 30%. AI Overviews are answering the questions your articles used to. Social referral is a shadow of what it was.The one thing nobody can scrape from you is a direct relationship with your audience. This episode walks through the Publisher Flywheel: a 4-step system Pete has built with hundreds of publishers to convert anonymous traffic into known, engaged readers, and turn that audience into revenue.You'll see it working live on The Spanish Eye, a regional English-language news publisher in Andalusia that grew active users 800% in 12 months. Pete breaks down exactly which levers they pulled, in what order, and how you can start with a loose registration wall and tighten over time as confidence builds.What you'll learn:Why the average site sees 1.7 pages per session, and what that means for where your registration wall has to sitHow registration walls convert anonymous traffic 2-7x faster than pop-upsThe two-newsletter setup (free list + paid list) and what each one is actually forWhy your newsletter is a product, not a promo channel, and the cadence that actually convertsHow to target logged-in free readers with the right upgrade message at the right momentThe insights that matter: paywall hits, quiet readers, failed payments, and how to automate follow-upWhen (and whether) to lock down completely against AI bots and searchResources mentioned:The Publisher's AI Survival Guide (free): publisherrevenue.comThe Spanish Eye: thespanisheye.comLeaky Paywall: leakypaywall.com/list-builder/List Builder: leakypaywall.comLeaky Paywall Insights: insights.leakypaywall.com

Also Leute, es ist so weit: In dieser Folge nehme ich mir die Freiheit, mal allein und solo über ein Thema und mit Euch zu sprechen. Ich mache etwas, was ich eigentlich ungern mache: Über Menschen reden, die mich empören. Lieber ignoriere ich sie. In diesem Fall geht es um eine Empörung, die viral gibt und zu einer Empörungsdebatte um einen „Witz“ von Dieter Nuhr wurde, den er auf Kosten von getöteten Frauen reißt, die Opfer von Femiziden wurden. Nuhr sieht das natürlich ganz anders und habe es so auch nicht gemeint, wie es jetzt viele verstehen. Dennoch, die Lacher im Saal waren ihm sicher. Die Kritik kam später, weil viele Menschen diese Geschmacklosigkeit nicht amüsiert, sondern total aufgeregt hat: Frauen aber auch Männer. Und das hat dann wieder die empört, die eigentlich nur lachen wollten. Ich will in dieser Folge mit Euch darüber reden, wieso diese Debatte so krasse und heftige Reaktionen und Emotionen auslöst, wer sich hier und warum überhaupt angegriffen fühlt und was das alles mit dem Zustand unserer Gesellschaft und dem Feminismus in Deutschland zu tun hat. Shownotes: Bücher, Studien, Texte, Interviews, die ich erwähne: Buch: Kristina Lunz, Düzen Tekkal: „Wer hat euch erlaubt, Frauen so zu hassen?

A local news publisher with no paid paywall is still pulling reader revenue, and it's working.In this episode, Pete and Tyler break down an incognito digital-only publisher (about 60k monthly visitors, per Similar Web) running a model that ignores the usual playbook. There's no hard wall on the content. Everything stays free to read after a generous registration step, and the paid upgrades come from community perks instead of locked articles.If you've been nervous that putting up any kind of wall will tank your traffic, this one's a useful counter-example. It shows how to capture emails, build confidence with a wall, and turn free registered readers into paying members.Key TakeawaysThe generous registration wall. Readers get 3 free articles off the street. On the 4th view, a free registration wall unlocks unlimited access. That setup is hitting a 5.7% conversion rate against wall views and brought in 2,200+ registered readers in about 3 months, which Tyler says is far beyond what their old sidebar email widget ever did. The plan is to tighten the wall to two or one free article over time, and Tyler thinks conversion could roughly double when they do.Move commenting off Facebook. Tyler's take: turn off comments on your Facebook page and pull the conversation back to your own site. Gating comments behind registration (or paid membership) keeps the discussion clean and easy to moderate, since people with their name and payment details attached tend to behave. You also keep the eyeballs on your site instead of handing them to social.Levers for paid upgrades beyond content. Since articles are free after registering, paid upgrades run on membership perks: on-site commenting, an ad-free experience, a physical welcome gift (a hat or bag), discounted tickets to events held a few times a year, and a subscriber-only newsletter. Paid subscribers can also email questions directly to the editorial staff.The pay-what-you-can option. Below the main pricing cards sits a small donation option for readers who want to support local journalism but won't commit to full-price membership. Tyler says a measurable number of people take it, spending $5 to $9 who'd otherwise have spent nothing.The text-only editorial newsletter. No images, no standard teasers. It reads like a personal note from the editor, with article links woven into the writing and a support CTA at the bottom. Pete also flags the reply-to-the-editor angle: when readers actually hit reply, Gmail reads that engagement as a quality signal and is less likely to bury your newsletter.Learn more about our paywall strategies: https://leakypaywall.com/

Welcome to “Paywall Podcast”.I was going to put this behind a paywall, but after some thought, we have too many of those in boxing. Instead, it is free.What is it?My final thoughts on a “big fight” after the weigh-in that will help you get excited for the fight.This week, I tackle Xander Zayas versus Jaron “Boots” Ennis. Is Zayas too big? Did he have trouble making weight? Does ‘Boots' get hit too much? Is ‘Boots' arrogant? Plus thoughts on Emiliano Vargas, Ben Whittaker, and Jahi Tucker versus Euri Cedeno.

In this episode of The Paywall Podcast, Pete sits down with James Baldacchino, fractional CMO of Leaky Paywall and AI SEO specialist at Ellipsis, to break down what publishers need to do as AI reshapes search and reader revenue: how to optimize your content for LLMs like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, why most publishers underprice their content and how to run a silent price test that lifts revenue without spooking subscribers, plus a live teardown of a high-traffic B2B publication that exposes the exact paywall friction points costing publishers paid conversions.

“GAA football and hurling fans cannot be subjected to another season of not being able to watch their county teams compete in the provincial and All-Ireland championships on TV”. So says Fine Gael Senator Mike Kennelly who spoke to Anton this morning.
The Champions League final highlighted a growing issue in sports media: more fans are becoming unwilling to pay for content. Despite record-breaking media rights deals, the shift from free-to-air to paywalled access appears to be reducing reach and reshaping audience behaviour. As subscription fatigue and fragmentation increase, questions are emerging around whether the current sports broadcasting model is sustainable. The discussion explores whether the industry needs to rethink pricing, distribution, and how it defines and monetizes its true audience. Key Points:Did moving the Champions League final behind a paywall push fans away?Are paywalls prioritizing short-term revenue at the expense of of long-term audience growth and reach?Is piracy a symptom of pricing and accessibility issues rather than a problem that can be solved through enforcement?If piracy is growing, what does that mean for the actual value of sports media rights?How should sports rethink distribution - free-to-air, subscriptions, or new hybrid models - to better match modern fan behaviour?
In der allerersten Folge meines neuen Podcasts „Marinićs Freiheit“, einem Spin-off von „Freiheit deluxe“, geht es um Geschichten und Stories. Solche, die wir in den Nachrichten lesen, die uns die Politik erzählt über uns und unsere Zukunft. Erzählungen, denen wir auch schon mal verfallen, weil sie uns tagelang beschäftigen, vielleicht auch empören. Stories sind überall - sie beeinflussen, wie wir unsere Welt und Gegenwart überhaupt wahrnehmen. Wir reden zwar immer von Fakten, doch die Art, wie wir unsere Wirklichkeit verstehen, bestimmen vor allem Geschichten. Aber wieso sind es ausgerechnet Stories vom Untergang, die so verfangen? Es gibt gerade einen gewissen Thrill vom Untergang der Demokratie zu reden, so wie Söder nach den letzten Wahlen von der „letzten Patrone der Demokratie“ sprach. Warum sind diese Stories medial so beliebt, obwohl sie einen so runterziehen? Weil sie stimmen oder weil wir eine Angstlust haben? Manchmal denke ich, es ist einfach viel Arbeit, diesen Spins etwas entgegenzuhalten. Man isst dann eben auch den Shit-Burger, obwohl man weiß, er macht dick und ist ungesund. Dazu habe ich mir Khesrau Behroz eingeladen, einen der besten und erfolgreichsten Podcaster also auch Storyteller Deutschlands; für mich der „Steven Spielberg der deutschen Podcastwelt“. Khesrau und ich lieben beide das Schreiben. Wir erzählen beide gerne Geschichten. Es ist unser Handwerk. Es ist manchmal ärgerlich, zuzusehen, wie dieses Handwerk missbraucht wird, um Angst zu machen, Menschen zu manipulieren oder eigene Machtinteressen durchzusetzen. Und wo sind die guten Geschichten und wer erzählt die Erfolgsstories?

Cutting the cord on your print edition is the scariest operational decision you can make as a publisher. Even when the writing is on the wall, and skyrocketing paper, ink, and fulfillment costs are eating your margins alive, the fear of losing legacy subscribers and fleeing advertisers keeps many publishers completely paralyzed.In this episode, Pete sits down with Wally, partner at digital agency 50 Fish, to walk through a real-world case study of a 30-year-old legacy enthusiast publication, Brew Your Own Magazine, that pulled the plug on print and successfully migrated to a 100% digital-only model using Leaky Paywall.They dissect the exact multi-month blueprint used to transition legacy print readers, how they protected their ad revenue by leveraging trackable digital flipbooks, why they had to tear down their old magazine department navigation for a topical SEO architecture, and a brilliant operational hack using Leaky Paywall's Lead-In extension to explode their free registration list.If print overhead is a ticking clock for your business, this episode is your tactical guide to life after paper.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeThe Reality of the Churn: You'll find out what actually happens to your paid subscriber base when you stop printing, how to handle long-term fulfillment liabilities, and why a well-timed, transparent communication plan beats a rushed transition every time.The Print Replica Ad Trap Solved: BYO retained its legacy print advertisers by offering a digital flipbook with clickable, trackable URLs. This satisfied the 20% of readers who still want a magazine layout while giving advertisers modern data analytics.Stop Replicating Print Layouts on the Web: Organizing your website navigation by magazine departments kills your user engagement. Restructuring content into topical buckets drives massive SEO and longer session times.The Lead-In Growth Hack: You will learn the exact strategy 50 Fish uses to identify high-traffic organic search magnets. They hook readers with the first few paragraphs using Leaky Paywall's Lead-In block, then trigger a free registration wall right at a high-suspense subheading.Why Email is Your Real Product: Traditional metered paywalls fail to capture one-and-done organic traffic.

Сторонники теорий заговора не доверяют официальным властям. Они принимают точку зрения того человека, с которым могут пообщаться лично. В 70-х Джон Тодд выступал в церквях южных штатов и рассказывал о заговоре иллюминатов и колдунов, к его словам прислушивались.

What happens after a reader signs up for your free registration tier? If you aren't actively nurturing them during the honeymoon period of peak engagement, you are leaving predictable reader revenue on the table.In this episode of the Paywall Podcast, Pete and Tyler break down the anatomy of high-converting email drip campaigns. They contrast two radically different, successful publisher case studies. One niche enthusiast publication dominates with just one perfectly timed email. Another educational publisher leverages an intensive 18-email sequence to drive continuous paid conversions.Whether you cover hyper-local news or serve a deep-niche enthusiast market, you will learn how to stop nagging readers for money. You will discover how to build real trust, leverage your unique voice, and match your email cadence to user intent.Key TakeawaysThe Transactional Goldmine: Your initial account confirmation email boasts an average 70% open rate. If you don't have a subtle, text-based subscription CTA at the bottom, you are missing your most visible touchpoint.The 60-Minute Honeymoon Window: Giving readers an hour to digest your content pays off. One publisher sends a beautiful, high-value welcome email exactly 60 minutes after registration, and it is their highest-converting inbound marketing asset.The Content Bundle Hack: Packaging your best evergreen articles into a free Essentials resource bundle can instantly spike your free registrations. One niche publisher saw a 30% jump using this exact tactic.Local News Playbook: Local publishers should skip aggressive discounts. Instead, focus on introducing your team, highlighting investigative wins, and leaning into your highest-traffic content categories like local food, crime, or politics.The Two Superpowers: You already have the content and the traffic. You just need the confidence to protect your value with a strategic registration wall and a purposeful email sequence.Links & Resources MentionedLeaky PaywallNewsletter GlueCase Studies Referenced: Small Boats Magazine and The Moss ReportTool Highlight: Leaky Paywall Timewall Extension (automatically shifts free content behind the paywall after a set amount of time to create natural urgency)

Honda Puts Its Garage Door Opener Behind a Paywall by Lehto's Law
What if the most expensive moment in your customer acquisition funnel is also your most ignored opportunity?Agility requires seeing a user's “no” not as a final endpoint, but as a data point that signals a need for a different path. It demands that we pivot in real-time to offer alternative forms of value, rather than simply writing off the investment and the relationship.Today, we're going to talk about one of the biggest blind spots in the subscription economy: the paywall. For most apps, this is a binary, all-or-nothing moment where up to 95% of hard-won users say "no" and are effectively treated as a lost cause. We'll explore why that moment of decline isn't the end of the customer journey, but potentially the most valuable opportunity to build a different kind of relationship and unlock new revenue.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Michael Gants, Founder and CEO at Encore.
