Are you still playing by the old career rules, sending out resumes, waiting for HR to notice you, and hoping AI doesn't filter you out before a human ever sees your name? Are you frustrated that you “did everything right” (education, resume, interview skills) yet still feel invisible in a job market overrun by automation, layoffs, and gig work? In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Dr. Chaz Austin explains why corporate loyalty is dead and why every worker, employee, freelancer, or consultant must start thinking like an entrepreneur. Drawing on his doctorate in organizational leadership from Pepperdine, three books, including How to Find Work for the Rest of Your Life, LinkedIn Learning career courses, and a TEDx talk, he breaks down how AI has flooded the hiring system with noise, and why employers are retreating to the safest filter they know: real human relationships and referrals. Instead of hoping an algorithm notices you, Chaz shows you how to become the person people already know and trust before an opening is ever posted, rather than relying on random luck. https://youtu.be/4Ooqx32wiHs?si=HVYTr3Zmb0rgE6ks Dr. Chaz walks you through a practical, modern strategy centered on LinkedIn, targeted groups, and consistent visibility. He reveals how to position your profile, so decision-makers instantly see your value, how to use groups and volunteering as an “audition” for future work, and why you must embrace the reality that you now have two jobs: your craft and your self‑marketing. His “farmer” metaphor, planting and nurturing many relationship seeds over time, offers a realistic, sustainable way to generate ongoing gigs, referrals, and opportunities without feeling like a pushy salesperson. This conversation is packed with insights for anyone frustrated by ignored applications, unstable employment, or a nagging fear that they're being left behind by AI and automation. If you're ready to stop depending on resumes and start building a relationship-powered, opportunity-rich career in the gig economy, Dr. Chaz's approach may be the reset you need. Quotes: "Think of yourself as a farmer: plant as many seeds as you can. You water them, you nurture them, and you don't need all of them to grow; if a few start to pop up, that's your new client, that's your new gig." "Sometimes they don't hire the best people; they hire people they know and trust that they've worked with before." "You need to lower your expectations significantly about the old sending out the resume. You can continue to do that, but don't expect anything. A lot of it is just busy work."  Contact Details: Explore Dr. Chaz Austin's Official Website Visit Dr. Chaz Austin's Facebook Page Connect with Dr. Chaz Austin on LinkedIn Follow Dr. Chaz Austin on Instagram Get a Copy of How to Find Work for the Rest of Your Life on Amazon

"When you say your racial identity is essential to who you are rather than incidental, then you've got the ingredients for tribal warfare." — Victor Davis Hanson  After decades of affirmative action, DEI programs, and identity politics, Americans are tired of seeing every issue through the lens of race. Racial preferences and identity-based politics have weakened social cohesion instead of strengthening it. A society built around shared values, assimilation, and equal treatment under the law is being replaced by a growing focus on group identity and grievance.

After years of alienating working-class voters, Democrats are suddenly trying to rebrand themselves as champions of Main Street with candidates like James Talarico and Graham Platner. From carefully crafted campaign images to handpicked candidates marketed as authentic, the party is betting voters will forget its record.  But can political theater overcome years of rhetoric and policies that pushed millions of working Americans away? The latest attempts to win back the white working class may reveal more about Democrat elites than the voters they're trying to persuade.

The facts are not in dispute. Henry Nowak, a young university student was talking home one night when a 23-year-old Sikh immigrant stabbed him in the chest several times with a “ceremonial blade.” Vickrum Digwa, the killer, told police that Nowak had racially assaulted him. This was a lie. The police handcuffed Nowak, leaving him to bleed out in front of them. "Mr. Nowak, unlike George Floyd, was not a career criminal. He was not being handcuffed because he was passing counterfeit currency and high on fentanyl and resisting arrest as Mr. Floyd was. It's far more egregious for police to handcuff a man bleeding on the ground than to use a standard approved measure to restrain a suspect that was resisting arrest that went south when he stopped breathing.  What was the reaction? The United States blew up for four months.  What was the reaction in Britain to Mr. Nowak? Silence," argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

In this episode of the InspirED Podcast, Andrea De La Cerda challenges the idea that women should be able to “have it all” at the same time without sacrifice or tension.

In this episode of the InspirED Podcast, Andrea De La Cerda shares her journey from corporate burnout to entrepreneurship, revealing that burnout is often less about doing too much and more about being misaligned with who you've become. She breaks down what it really takes to transition into entrepreneurship—from identity shifts to financial preparation—while challenging the idea that leaving corporate is an instant solution.

How do you calm an angry person in 90 seconds or less—without defending yourself, explaining, or arguing back?  In this episode of the Balancing Act podcast, host Andy Temte speaks with Doug Noll—a trial lawyer turned peacemaker, award-winning mediator, and author of De-Escalate: How to Calm an Angry Person in 90 Seconds or Less. Doug is also the co-founder of the Prison of Peace project, where he trained maximum security inmates to reduce violence using empathy skills, and he teaches decision making under uncertainty and conflict at Pepperdine's Straus Institute.  Doug shares the neuroscience behind affect labeling—the simple practice of naming someone's emotions to quiet the brain's threat response—and reveals how two words (“you feel”) can transform relationships, resolve team conflict, and build trust.  From the story of a prison inmate who reconnected with her son after 18 years to a CEO who turned a toxic culture around in six months, this conversation makes the case that empathy isn't a soft skill—it's the hardest and most important leadership skill there is.  Tune in to episode 241 hear Doug's story and learn what it really means to listen someone into existence.  AndrewTemte.com

In this vulnerable and powerful episode, Andrea shares the moment she realized she had achieved external success — title, salary, status — yet felt completely empty inside. What looked like accomplishment was actually misalignment.Through her story of career pivots driven by fear, shrinking under cultural and workplace expectations, and surviving layered trauma, Andrea unpacks the real signs of misalignment — from anxiety and insomnia to hollow wins and the endless achievement treadmill. ...CHAPTERS(00:00) – Sobbing despite external success(01:10) – Misalignment isn't ingratitude(02:20) – Career shaped by others' expectations(03:30) – Good at it doesn't mean it's yours(04:30) – Shrinking in marriage and motherhood(05:45) – Corporate pressure and gender bias(07:00) – Mental health breaking point(07:30) – Physical signs of misalignment(09:00) – Hollow wins and Sunday dread(11:30) – Whose dream are you living?(14:00) – Ambition vs. obligation(15:30) – 5 steps to realignment(19:00) – The 30-minute truth audit(00:00) – Sobbing despite external success(01:10) – Misalignment isn't ingratitude(02:20) – Career shaped by others' expectations(03:30) – Good at it doesn't mean it's yours(04:30) – Shrinking in marriage and motherhood(05:45) – Corporate pressure and gender bias(07:00) – Mental health breaking point(07:30) – Physical signs of misalignment(09:00) – Hollow wins and Sunday dread(11:30) – Whose dream are you living?(14:00) – Ambition vs. obligation(15:30) – 5 steps to realignment(19:00) – The 30-minute truth auditRESOURCES ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Goal Getters Guide⁠TAG ANDREA ON INSTAGRAM⁠⁠@andreadlc_coachCONNECT WITH KANDULA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kandula Blogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. . .ABOUT ANDREA DE LA CERDAAndrea De La Cerda is a highly accomplished communications professional with over 25 years of experience in the fields of advertising, communications and marketing.

In the Week 13 recap, we saw a week were there were no upsets in the top 10, however it didn't mean there was a shortage of action! Long Beach St. took down Theo's Matadors twice, while Brad and his Tritons were in the battle but UCI found a way to get it done in 3 and 5 sets accordingly. Dan and his Flyers only had one match for the week in the Battle for Chitown on Rae Strong Night, where the Ramblers came out with the win in 4. UCLA is at 20-0 and looking unstoppable, while Pepperdine had a very important pair of wins Provo vs. BYU that cold prove important if an At-Large bid is on the line. Just a few samples of our discussions before we pick our "Ballers of the Week," NOTE: For those requesting time-stamps, we apologize for not posting them.

In the 300th episode (on Viral Volley Media) we've got an NCAA Men's Championship Volleyball Recap in Week 11 that saw No. 1 UCLA remain undefeated—which beckons the question, “Can the Bruins be beaten?” Also, Penn St. makes a West Coast swing vs. Long Beach St., Pepperdine and USC as Coach Pav continues his retirement tour. Stanford snatches a couple wins against No 7 BYU that could prove to me huge come MPSF Tournament time while celebrating Volleyball Day in the Bay.

In this powerful season opener, Andrea shares a deeply personal story about financial dependence, single motherhood, and the night her credit cards were declined at a grocery store with two small children in tow. What felt like a private failure was actually something much bigger: the systemic reality known as the motherhood penalty.Backed by research and lived experience, this episode explores the documented financial cost women pay for caregiving, why the so-called “choice” to stay home isn't always a true choice, and how cultural narratives continue to romanticize economic dependence. ...EPISODE CHAPTERS(00:00) – The grocery store moment that changed everything(01:45) – The decision to stay home — and what it really cost(03:15) – Losing financial power and personal identity(04:20) – The research behind the motherhood penalty(05:10) – Why “choice” isn't always a real choice(05:55) – Romanticizing dependence vs. protecting freedom(06:00) – How to build and protect your economic power(06:50) – Your challenge: know your numbers and take one actionRESOURCES ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Goal Getters GuideTAG ANDREA ON INSTAGRAM⁠⁠⁠@andreadlc_coach⁠CONNECT WITH KANDULA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kandula Blogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. . .ABOUT ANDREA DE LA CERDAAndrea De La Cerda is a highly accomplished communications professional with over 25 years of experience in the fields of advertising, communications and marketing.

Did Burke disavow natural rights and pave the way for the evils of authoritarianism, fascism, Marxism, and progressivism to come? Does a careful, esoteric reading of Natural Right and History reveal the Strauss secret family chili recipe?   On Wednesday, March 4 at 6PM EST / 5PM CST, Saving Elephants will assemble an all-star panel to answer these questions and more.   Representing Edmund Burke: Greg Collins of Yale University and Lauren Hall of the Rochester Institute of Technology   Representing Leo Strauss: Steve Hayward of Pepperdine and the international woman of mystery, Lucretia of the University of Arizona   You can watch the livestream on YouTube or Facebook

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Dr. Arthur Laffer to the show. Mr. Laffer is a Renowned American Economist and Best-Selling Author. In this wide-ranging discussion, Dr. Laffer provides deep insights into economic policy, drawing from his extensive experience as an economist and advisor to President Reagan. Dr. Laffer emphasizes the importance of five key pillars of economic prosperity: taxes, spending, monetary policy, regulatory policy, and trade policy. He argues that lower tax rates, spending restraint, sound monetary policy, minimal regulations, and free trade are essential for economic growth. Reflecting on his work with Reagan, he highlights how reducing tax rates from 70% to 28% and implementing strategic monetary policies transformed the US economy. Discussing current economic challenges, Dr. Laffer is optimistic about the US economy. He addresses concerns about national debt, arguing that while the numbers appear large, they are not as dire as they seem when considering debt-to-wealth ratios and debt service costs. He warns against income redistribution policies, presenting a mathematical theorem that demonstrates how such transfers invariably reduce total economic production. On monetary policy, Dr. Laffer criticizes recent Federal Reserve approaches, advocating for a price rule similar to the gold standard. He sees gold and cryptocurrencies as refuges from poor monetary management, believing private market solutions can create more stable currencies. He’s particularly impressed with stablecoins like Tether and their potential to provide monetary alternatives. Regarding global trade and geopolitics, Dr. Laffer advocates for peace through economic strength. He believes in free trade and mutual prosperity, arguing that countries should focus on becoming trading partners rather than adversaries. He’s critical of over-regulation and redistributionist policies in Europe and supports market-driven solutions to challenges like climate change. Throughout the interview, Dr. Laffer’s core message remains consistent: economic prosperity comes from creating incentives for production, minimizing government intervention, and allowing free markets to solve problems.

Laffer is one of the most influential economic minds of the last century. He is best known for the Laffer Curve, a groundbreaking theoretical construct illustrating the critical tradeoff between tax rates and government revenue—an idea Time Magazine named one of the few advances that “powered the 20th century”. Dr. Laffer's career spans the highest levels of academia and public policy. He served as the first Chief Economist at the Office of Management and Budget and was a core member of President Ronald Reagan's Economic Policy Advisory Board during both terms. His counsel was instrumental in triggering the global tax-cutting movement of the 1980s, advising leaders ranging from Margaret Thatcher to Donald Rumsfeld. An alumnus of Yale and Stanford, Dr. Laffer held distinguished professorships at the University of Chicago, USC, and Pepperdine. Today, he is the Chairman of Laffer Associates, providing institutional research and consulting from his base in Nashville. A prolific author of works including The End of Prosperity and Trumponomics, Dr. Laffer continues to shape the global conversation on fiscal policy and market incentives.

Shotgun Spratling and Kasey Kazliner return on the Dedeaux Download Podcast to break down USC baseball's 3-0 start to the season with a historic Saturday performance. The Trojans threw a combined no-hitter that ended in dramatic fashion as a two-run homer from Andrew Lamb invoked a 10-run mercy rule. Sandwiching the dominant 11-0 display on Saturday were a pair of close victories for USC as it won the season opener 3-1 and then locked up the sweep Sunday with an 8-5 victory over the Pepperdine. In each game, the Trojans got elite starting pitching, allowing just three hits over three starts and 16 innings. Shotgun and Kasey break down all the action and look forward to the upcoming matchups after they talk with USC sophomore right-hander Grant Govel about throwing the first six innings of a no-hitter and striking out a career-high nine batters. Govel also discusses his offseason development, putting on 20 pounds of muscle and refining his repertoire, which was all working for him in his start against the Waves.

For good or ill, the post World War II era built by the Baby Boomers seems to be rapidly coming to an end.  But what will replace it?  What might be done to prevent global conflicts and bloodshed as the old order begins to break down?  And what should younger conservatives seek to conserve in this era of chaotic change?  Joining Saving Elephants host Josh Lewis is Director of Research at the Danube Institute, Calum Nicholson to share how the Anglosphere often misunderstands the way the rest of the world thinks and how that might help us better prepare for what's ahead. About Calum Nicholson From the University of Cambridge bio With a background in social anthropology and human geography, Dr Calum T. M. Nicholson has conducted original research that reconsiders how we understand the societal implications of climate change, notably in the context of its relationship to human migration and international development. A former development consultant and Parliamentary researcher, at PACE Dr Nicholson teaches courses on international development, international migration, and the politics of climate change. Dr Nicholson also teaches a well-received course on the political, cultural, and historical significance of social media. He is currently Director of Research at the Danube Institute, and was formerly Director of the Climate Policy Institute. His new book is entitled Climate Migration: critical perspectives for law, policy, and research.   Introducing Conservative Cagematches Ever since Leo Strauss published his magnum opus Natural Right and History, which ends by heavily implying Edmund Burke opened the door for the evils of historicism in the modern world, a great fissure in conservative nerddom erupted between those who align with either titan. Were Strauss' criticism of Burke warranted? Did Burke disavow natural rights and pave the way for the evils of authoritarianism, fascism, Marxism, and progressivism to come? Does a careful, esoteric reading of Natural Right and History reveal the Strauss secret family chili recipe? On Wednesday, March 4 at 6PM EST / 5PM CST, Saving Elephants will assemble an all-star panel to answer these questions and more.

The Dedeaux Download podcast, part of the Peristyle Podcast family of shows, returns with the 2026 college baseball beginning Friday. Shotgun Spratling and Kasey Kazliner continue with the third and final episode in the three-part season preview, leading up to the start of the 2026 USC baseball season. In the finale of the season preview series, USC head coach Andy Stankiewicz joins the Dedeaux Download to talk about where the Trojans stand heading into Opening Day Friday against Stankiewicz' alma mater, Pepperdine. He discusses how several returners are going to have to take a step forward to replace many of the team's top performers off last year's NCAA tournament team. Stankiewicz also talks about the Trojans' roster construction this offseason adding an impressive freshman class and some experienced transfers while turning other transfers down that were interested in USC. The head coach also discusses keeping the momentum of the program moving forward after ending a decade-long postseason drought and chats about what fans can expect when they come out to the new Dedeaux Field. After a break, Shotgun and Kasey take a final preseason look at the roster construction, discuss how the schedule breaks down for the Trojans and looks at the preseason perception of USC baseball this year with the team picked to finish third in the Big Ten. The podcasting duo previews this weekend's matchup with the Pepperdine Waves and answers your email questions about the transfer portal.

We explore one of the most sensitive and least discussed topics in Jewish life: money and marriage.• Why do so many couples avoid talking about money?• What do fights about money really represent?• How can couples build financial trust and literacy before and during marriage?• What role should community education play in preparing young people for real-world financial responsibility?To unpack all this, we sat down with Sarah Nissel, an attorney, law professor at Pepperdine, and Executive Director of the Jewish Divorce Assistance Center of Los Angeles. After mediating over 300 divorces, Sarah has learned what truly makes (and breaks) relationships when it comes to money + how self-awareness, communication, and education can prevent heartbreak.She shares candid lessons from the front lines: how to talk about money without shame, how to manage conflict constructively, and why the chuppah isn't the finish line, it's the starting line.It's a powerful, eye-opening conversation about emotional intelligence, financial transparency, and Torah values in Jewish relationships — not just how to avoid divorce, but how to build marriages that actually thrive.
