As we begin a new year, it's natural to reflect on what's changed - and what's quietly no longer fit for purpose. AI investment is accelerating at pace, and autonomous and semi-autonomous agents are moving from experimentation to everyday work. And yet, many organisations are still operating with leadership models, workforce structures, and planning assumptions designed for a world where humans were the only actors in the system. In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Sandra Durth, Partner at McKinsey & Company, to explore what happens when work is no longer just human-to-human, but human-to-agent - and what that means for the future of organisations. Drawing on McKinsey's latest research, Sandra shares her perspective on: How AI-human symbiosis is reshaping the very definition of work Why traditional hierarchies and leadership models are starting to break down What “agentic leadership” really looks like in practice The implications for performance, management capability, and strategic workforce planning The biggest opportunities - and the biggest risks - HR leaders need to be paying attention to right now Links to research: The agentic organization: Contours of the next paradigm for the AI era Six shifts to build the agentic organization of the future Rethink management and talent for agentic AI Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, Abbie explains how early exercise and play help build the foundation for bone health, muscle development, and cardiorespiratory fitness in girls, as well as how puberty and menstruation shape athletic performance, motivation, and recovery. She also explores how women can tailor training and nutrition across the menstrual cycle through smart fueling, hydration, and inflammation management; examines the evidence behind supplements such as creatine, omega-3s, and magnesium; and unpacks the metabolic and body composition changes that accompany the transition into perimenopause and menopause. Finally, she covers practical exercise programming for busy women, training and nutrition considerations during pregnancy and postpartum, and the evolving role of hormone therapy alongside lifestyle-based, evidence-driven approaches that help women better advocate for their health. We discuss: Abbie's background in distance running and her interest in studying women's health around exercise [3:00]; The role of early-life exercise in building lifelong bone, muscle, and cardiovascular health in girls [4:00]; Training principles for premenstrual girls, the risks of early specialization and delayed puberty from intense training, and how youth sport participation can shape bone and spinal health [7:15]; Nutrition as fuel in young female athletes: supporting training, growth, and performance [11:00]; Training and recovery across the menstrual cycle: recovery, nutrition, supplements, and practical strategies for performance support [16:00]; The benefits of creatine supplementation and importance of protein intake across the menstrual cycle [27:15]; How women should approach training intensity and volume across the menstrual cycle [33:00]; How to identify and monitor the perimenopausal transition and why this phase represents a critical window for exercise and nutrition interventions [37:15]; Case study: time-efficient exercise program for a busy, perimenopausal woman [42:00]; Why improving body composition is a better goal than weight loss, and how to set realistic fat-loss targets in midlife women [53:30]; How to preserve muscle and bone while using GLP-1 medications: resistance training, protein intake, and more [58:15]; Designing a three-hour-per-week training plan for sustainable body recomposition [1:03:30]; Abbie's insights from her 20+ years of self-tracking: nutrient timing, injury prevention, excessive training, bone health, and more [1:07:15]; How pregnancy and the postpartum period affect body composition, and how consistent exercise and intentional nutrition can prevent a permanent shift in body fat or muscle mass [1:13:30]; Changes in muscle quality and metabolic flexibility during perimenopause and menopause, and how exercise may counteract hormonally driven sarcopenia [1:21:45]; The biggest open questions about women's health: combining menopause hormone therapy with exercise, GLP-1 drugs, minimizing injury risk, and more [1:32:00]; How the training response differs between men and women, and the importance of type IIa muscle fibers [1:39:15]; Training advice for the hypothetical 70-year-old woman who has never exercised deliberately [1:47:00]; Misinformation about exercise and nutrition for women, injury risk, supplement hype, and the need for more nuanced messaging around hormones, recovery, and midlife training [1:53:30]; Benefits of hormone therapy in midlife women and its interaction with exercise and lifestyle interventions [2:00:15]; Peter's overall take on how women should approach exercise volume and intensity at various life phases and time constraints [2:03:00]; and More.

We're joined by Jamaal Ghauri, a trader and fund manager who began his journey unusually early — first exposed to crypto markets as a teenager during Bitcoin's early adoption phase, before moving into stocks and eventually options. Jamal walks through the full arc of his development as a trader: early overconfidence, aggressive options bets, a rapid run-up followed by a major drawdown, and the hard lessons that ultimately forced him to rethink risk, position sizing, and process. From there, he explains how he rebuilt by focusing on more structured setups, volatility awareness, and consistency over time. We discuss the evolution of his core strategies — including swing trades, breakout-style setups, and short-term options structures — and how those approaches are now applied within a multi-strategy fund he launched in 2025. Jamal also shares how he thinks about trade distribution, win rates versus loss severity, and why discipline and risk management ultimately mattered more than finding the “perfect” setup. As always, this conversation is about understanding how a trader thinks, how strategies evolve over time, and how real-world risk shows up differently than it does on paper.

01 05 26 Improving Spray Performance by Ag PhD

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Alexandra Gajer, a board certified physician who made a courageous shift from emergency medicine to the world of performance health optimization. Dr. Gajer shared how she reached a point of burnout even though she loved her work in the ER. Her story highlights a powerful truth that many high performers overlook. Loving your career does not make you immune to burnout. She explained why self care cannot be something we practice only during off hours, and how traditional medicine often focuses more on disease than on sustaining long term vitality. I emphasized how essential her work is, especially for leaders and professionals who want to feel energized and capable for decades rather than reacting to health problems after they arise. Optimizing Health for Career Success Dr. Gajer broke down a shift she sees in her clients. Success is no longer just about titles or income. True success requires a strong foundation of health. She explained how metabolic health plays a central role in energy, performance, and longevity. Small changes in how the body uses food for fuel can create massive improvements. She also covered the importance of hormone health and how people at any age can regain optimal energy levels. Dr. Gajer described clients in their 70s, 80s, and even 90s who continue thriving because they invested early in their health and maintained consistent habits. Health Habits for Peak Performance After 45 We explored why leaders over 45 must be proactive about both cognitive and physical health. Many people hit their 40s with more wisdom, capability, and clarity than ever, yet their bodies begin sending subtle warning signs. Dr. Gajer explained how burnout symptoms often show up quietly for people in demanding professions like healthcare, leadership, and entrepreneurship. We talked about why mindfulness, nutrition, movement, and regular health assessments are essential investments for long term functionality and longevity. Food Intolerance and Personal Health Awareness I shared my own experience with food intolerance testing and how it changed the way I look at nutrition. Discovering that I have a potato allergy, despite my Irish roots, and an intolerance to eggs, despite the egg in my brand logo, created some irony and a lot of self reflection. I talked about how foods interact with one another much like medications do, and why paying attention to how your body responds can be a game changer for overall well being. Whole Foods and Testosterone Health Dr. Gajer discussed the sharp decline in testosterone levels among men and why diet is a major contributor. She emphasized the importance of whole foods over processed products that are engineered to be addictive. Whole foods help regulate appetite, stabilize weight, and support hormone balance. She also highlighted the link between processed foods, inflammation, and cognitive decline. The message was clear. Your diet is creating either long term strength or long term struggle. Healthy Eating for Longevity We explored the consequences of poor dietary habits, including the rising rates of type 3 diabetes, Alzheimer's, and dementia. I shared why I believe medications like Ozempic are often used as a Band Aid for lifestyle choices rather than addressing root causes. We discussed how healthy food choices combined with regular movement help people maintain clarity, emotional stability, and resilience. When you take care of your body, you are better equipped to handle every other area of life. Health Habits and Daily Well Being Dr. Gajer emphasized that small health habits create major shifts. He noted that it is never too late to start making positive changes. We discussed the importance of consuming adequate protein, supporting gut microbiome health, and using daily rituals to reduce stress. I reinforced that when you strengthen your health, your performance improves in your relationships, your leadership, and your decision making. Inside Dr. Alexandra Gajer's Health Coaching Practice Dr. Gajer shared an overview of her health optimization practice, which supports clients nationwide. Listeners can book a free intro call through her website theguyerPractice.com. With my background in primary care administration, I deeply appreciate how vital her work is for healthcare professionals and high performers striving to stay healthy while maintaining demanding careers. Her contact information is included for anyone ready to take the next step toward long term health and vitality.

Today I'm sitting down with world-leading exercise physiologist Professor Stuart Phillips, PhD, to cut through the noise around strength training, protein, fasting, and midlife muscle. We talk about why women don't need a completely different training programme than men, why just two resistance sessions a week can meaningfully improve strength and long-term health, and why consistency matters far more than “perfect” protein timing or supplements. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN • Whether women need different strength training programmes than men • How little resistance training is needed to protect muscle and aging • Why lifting across all rep ranges builds better long-term results • How cardio and strength training interact (and sometimes compete) • How much protein women actually need per day and per meal • Why protein timing matters far less than total intake • Whether fasted training harms muscle, hormones, or recovery • How under-fueling quietly sabotages strength and adaptation Timestamps00:00 Strength Training Myths for Women 02:31 Why Lean Women May Struggle to Gain Muscle 05:17 Muscle vs Strength vs Power Explained 17:31 How Much Protein Do Women Really Need? 26:48 Protein Per Meal: Absorption, Timing & Anabolic Window 34:24 Carbohydrates, Performance & Insulin Sensitivity 37:34 Fasted Training: Risks, Benefits & Reality42:43 Optimising Post-Workout Nutrition 47:41 Balancing Cardio & Strength Training 52:19 Aging, DEXA Scans & What Really Matters VALUABLE RESOURCES A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible:• Hormone Harmony – Go to https://lvluphealth.com/angela | Use code ANGELA for an exclusive 15% off ABOUT THE GUEST Professor Stuart Phillips, PhD is a world-renowned exercise physiologist and Professor at McMaster University, internationally recognised for his research on muscle protein synthesis, aging, resistance training, and nutrition.

After an ugly game by the Eagles' backups against the Commanders, Eagles fans are mad that the starters were sat.

On today's episode we're focusing on mindset skills, emotional regulation and mental toughness and feel that orthopedic surgery with Dr. Winston Gwathmey, an orthopedic surgeon at UVA. We start off our discussion today with an article from the September 2022 issue of the Journal of Surgical Research titled “Emotional Regulation in Surgery: Fostering Well-Being, Performance, and Leadership.” This article reviews the critical role of emotional regulation as a trainable cognitive skill that enhances surgical well-being, technical performance, and career longevity. It highlights how burnout and stress are pervasive in surgery and argues that individual-level emotional regulation training—paired with necessary system-level changes—can help surgeons cope with the inherent stressors of operative practice, complications, and high-stakes decision-making. Through multiple institutional case studies, the paper illustrates practical strategies for implementing emotional regulation curricula within surgical training, including mindfulness-based programs, mental skills training, and broader well-being initiatives. Across all examples, successful adoption hinges on leadership support, stakeholder buy-in, iterative design, and embedding training into existing educational infrastructure. Ultimately, the authors advocate for an integrated national curriculum that combines cognitive skills training, application to technical performance, and preparation for independent practice to promote surgeon resilience and sustainable careers.Then, from the July 2021 issue of the Journal of Surgical Research, we review an article titled “Mastering Stress: Mental Skills and Emotional Regulation for Surgical Performance and Life.” This article reviews how mental skills training and emotional regulation can enhance surgeons' technical performance, well-being, and career longevity by mitigating the negative effects of stress. It explains the physiological and cognitive mechanisms of stress and highlights how chronic stress impairs decision-making and increases burnout. The authors present evidence that mindfulness, cognitive training, and mental rehearsal improve surgical skill acquisition, stress resilience, executive function, and performance under pressure. The authors go on to outline common elements of successful programs. They also discuss barriers to implementation and propose a framework for integrating mental skills training across surgical education from basic instruction to independent practice. They ultimately advocate for the development of a national mental skills curriculum to promote surgeon well-being, reduce errors, strengthen leadership and teamwork, and improve patient and systems-level outcomes.We are joined today by Dr. Winston Gwathmey, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon and a Professor of orthopedic surgery at the University of Virginia.  He is the Medical Director for the Sports Medicine Clinic at UVA and is also one of the team physicians for both UVA and James Madison University. Dr. Gwathmey is the Program Director for the Orthopedic Surgery Residency Program at UVA and is very passionate about educating the next generation of orthopedic surgeons.  He has won numerous teaching awards including the Mulholland Teaching award, the Charles W. Miller Resident Teaching award, and the Dean's Award for Excellence in Medical Student Teaching. So, we're very excited to have him on today to talk about this important topic. 

This week on the Science for Sport Podcast, Richard Graves is joined by Brian Roy, a strength and conditioning coach who has spent the past decade working at the sharp end of action and lifestyle sports, including Olympic BMX Freestyle. BMX Freestyle is still a relative newcomer to the Olympic programme, but its physical demands, injury risks and performance challenges are unlike almost any traditional sport. In this episode, Brian shares his unconventional journey into elite sport, from personal training and postgraduate study to travelling the world with BMX athletes on the global stage. Together, Richard and Brian explore what it really takes to prepare athletes for a sport defined by explosive power, aerial skill, high-impact landings and constant travel. Brian offers a refreshingly honest perspective on athlete buy-in, bespoke programming, and why traditional strength testing and rigid systems don't always transfer to non-traditional sports. This is a fascinating conversation for sports scientists, strength and conditioning coaches, and anyone interested in how performance support adapts when the sport doesn't fit neatly into a textbook. In this episode you will learn * The unique physiological and biomechanical demands of BMX Freestyle competition * How to prepare athletes for repeated 60-second, maximal-effort runs across a full competition day * Why traditional strength testing and gym-based metrics don't always translate to action sports * How Brian adapted training around constant travel, limited gym access, and athlete preferences * Practical strategies for building resilience and reducing injury risk in high-impact sports * Why athlete buy-in often comes from listening, adapting, and being present rather than enforcing systems * How emerging video and motion-analysis technology could shape the future of training in BMX Freestyle and similar sports About Brian Roy Brian Roy is a strength and conditioning coach with over 10 years' experience working in action and lifestyle sports. He holds a Master's degree in Kinesiology and Exercise Science and is currently undertaking further postgraduate study in Applied Sports Science Analytics. Brian has worked closely with elite BMX Freestyle athletes on the international stage, including those competing at the Olympic Games, and has developed a reputation for adaptable, athlete-centred training approaches. His work focuses on performance, resilience, and real-world transfer rather than rigid adherence to traditional testing models. Brian regularly shares insights from his work on LinkedIn and Instagram, where he discusses training philosophy, emerging technology, and lessons learned from working in non-traditional sports environments.

Amy and Kat are feeling motivated and introduce a simple but powerful way to declutter: give your stuff a performance review. Inspired by a tip from a Harvard professor, they talk about how we “hire” items to do a job and how freeing it can be to fire the things that no longer serve you. They also break down the red flags that your house might have too much stuff, from constantly organizing without results to feeling anxious in your own space. Plus, a listener's voicemail proves that if we don’t clean out our homes as we age, we can end up with so much stuff that we won’t even recognize when our own things are being wrapped up and gifted back to us.

Drawing on memory studies and theatrical history, Commemorative Acts: French Theatre and the Memory of the Great War (University of Toronto Press, 2025) analyses a neglected body of plays staged in France after the Great War, between 1918 and 1937, to reveal their profound impact on collective memory and cultural identity. In the aftermath of the Great War, a remarkable wave of collective commemoration emerged, but the aesthetic diversity of this period has often been overshadowed by a singular focus on the combatant experience, primarily conveyed through fiction and memoir. This selective historical narrative has fostered a homogenized memory of the war, neglecting the rich array of cultural productions that also emerged alongside it. Commemorative Acts challenges these prevailing assumptions about the memory of the Great War and its literary expression in interwar France by spotlighting theatrical works that have largely been forgotten. The book uncovers how the dominance of first-person accounts of soldiers' experiences has subtly, yet powerfully, narrowed our understanding of what the memory of the Great War can encompass. It explores how drama, structurally at odds with the first-person perspective and defined by its simultaneous modes of expression and reception, has been lost to collective memory. By examining the unique capacity of the dramatic form to capture war trauma, Commemorative Acts offers insights that differ from those of other literary genres, highlighting the theatre's potential to provide a more expansive and nuanced understanding of interwar memorial culture. Author Susan McCready is Professor of French at the University of South Alabama and the co-director for the Center for the Study of War and Memory at South Alabama; she is also the author of 2016's Staging France between the World Wars: Performance, Politics, and the Transformation of the Theatrical Canon and 2007's The Limits of Performance in the French Romantic Theatre, as well as the co-editor of Novel Stages: Drama and the Novel in Nineteenth-Century France in 2007. She has also co-edited a volume of Lingua Romana on France and Memory in the Great War, and has authored many academic articles and chapters on French theater and related topics, as well as a number of public humanities projects on war and memory.  Host Gina Stamm is Associate Professor of French at The University of Alabama, with research concentrated on the environmental humanities and speculative literatures of the 20th and 21st centuries, from Surrealism to contemporary science fiction and feminist utopias, in Metropolitan  France and the francophone Caribbean, with a book manuscript in progress on posthumanist ecological engagement in the surrealist movement.

The only good news today for Nebraska football is that it's officially 2026 - so the 2025 season is completely over with. That's about it. Nebraska had a great first quarter and then disappeared on both sides of the ball in a blowout by the UtesWe asked who had more to play for - wouldn't Nebraska be motivated to prove the 14-point spread was disrespectful, and that Utah might have issues in the first game under Morgan Scalley? Nope---at least not after the first quarter. A complete dud to end things for the year and more angst from the fanbase. And not to mention further the backwards hat stuff…Our Sponsors:* Check out Aura.com: https://aura.com/remove* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

My mind was rarin' to go again today, but the rest of me wasn't having it. The smart thing to do was to use the Black Hole Week down time to answer a question the last couple of re-runs might have put you in mind of: What the hell did KITM sound like on January 7, 2026? Well, now you'll know! And if you'd like a preview, here's Scott Anderson's summary of that fateful day… after the actual fateful day. David Waldman, broadcasting from the center of our vast KITM World Headquarters, phones Greg Dworkin down in the laundry room, to discuss all that happened yesterday: Did you read my summary yesterday? No? Well, I don't blame you. Yesterday was pretty crazy. Yesterday, I was certain Trumpers would be no challenge to Capitol police. The day before, I thought even the idea of an assault on the House chamber to be an outlandish joke. Imagine my surprise to find attitudes change so quickly.  Otherwise, it wasn't much of a surprise. The forces of white entitlement, white supremacy and white lunacy amassed in DC, and statehouses across the country. Some of the assembled mob believed they were literally going to war. A few of them might have been surprised on all what that entails, but plenty sure as hell knew what they were doing. The rioters might have looked like jokes but they weren't joking, and everyone knew it. Rudy Giuliani tried to subvert the will of the people, but called the wrong Senator. Violent insurrection is what Donald Trump wanted. He already goaded a mob to seize the capitol in Lansing, Michigan, and he used social media to attempt a coup. He and the gang are being deplatformed 5 years too late, and it's not nearly enough anymore. William Barr, Mick Mulvaney, along with several others of the Trump administration, many Republicans, and all the other presidents can tell you it is not enough anymore. Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee have called on Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment. Of course, it was only yesterday that Mike got his big boy pants pulled up, so that might be a big ask.  Speaking of Mike, Politico's "Congress Reporter", Kyle Cheney misspoke about a discovery that he misconstrued as Pence manipulation of the electoral count, when in fact it is a parliamentarian hero story.

Leadership isn't clean. It isn't safe. And it definitely isn't about trying to look good. Dan Tocchini breaks that illusion wide open. He's spent decades inside organizations, building leaders, shaping culture, and—most importantly—owning where he got it wrong. One of the most powerful truths he brings to the table is this: if you're not willing to put something at stake, you're not actually leading. You're managing your image.Dan shares the hard-earned lessons from running a company for over 20 years and realizing that avoiding tough conversations wasn't compassion—it was self-protection. Performance issues don't disappear because you soften your language or dance around the truth. They compound. And when leaders avoid conflict, what they're really avoiding is accountability. Dan calls that out for what it is, and he doesn't sugarcoat it.This conversation cuts straight into emotional maturity, conflict, and what Dan calls “paradoxical leadership”—the tension between empathy and enforcement. Caring deeply about people while still holding the line. Being willing to argue well, not to win, but to sharpen thinking and make better decisions. Dan reframes conflict as a resource, not a threat, and explains why leaders who can't engage it responsibly end up creating far bigger problems down the road.With nearly five decades of marriage, decades of leadership work, and a lifetime of experience, Dan brings wisdom you can't fake and perspective you can't shortcut. This is about leadership with skin in the game—where authenticity, consequences, and respect all matter. If you want to lead people, teams, or a company without losing yourself—or them—this conversation matters.We Meet: Dan Tocchini III, Connect:Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordanConnect with Dan: https://takenewground.com/Subscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLIN

Today's guest is Dustin Oranchuk, Ph.D. Dustin is a sport scientist focused on sprinting biomechanics, speed development, and force production. Known for blending research with practical coaching insight, his work explores how isometrics, elasticity, and coordination shape high-performance sprinting and athletic movement. Isometric training is one of the “original” forms of strength training, and in the modern day has become one of the most popular areas of discussion and training methodology. Although the practice has exploded, it often lacks an understanding of physiology of adaptation with various methods. In this episode, Dustin explores the evolving world of isometric training, including the origins of isometrics. We discuss differences between pushing and holding contractions, tendon and neural adaptations, and modern applications in performance, rehab, and longevity. The conversation also dives into eccentric quasi-isometrics (EQIs), motivation and measurement challenges, and how coaches can intelligently integrate isometrics alongside plyometrics and traditional strength work.

Early isometric systems emphasized position specific strength over movement. Modern usage has expanded beyond barbell sports into rehab and longevity. 8:38 Modern Applications of Isometrics Isometrics are now widely used to “own positions” across joint angles. Longer duration holds are frequently used for tissue health and rehab. Training intent has shifted from peak strength toward durability and resilience. 9:52 Neural vs. Morphological Adaptations Short range, position specific isometrics bias neural intent and coordination. Long muscle length isometrics bias hypertrophy and tendon adaptation. Choose isometric type based on whether the goal is performance transfer or tissue change. 15:45 The Importance of Long Holds Tendons require relatively high intensity to meaningfully adapt. Long holds help reveal side to side asymmetries and control deficits. Extended holds build tolerance and confidence in vulnerable joint positions. 19:42 Combining Isometrics and Plyometrics Pairing isometrics and plyometrics can produce modest additive benefits. Combining methods may reduce fatigue compared to doing each alone. The interaction may enhance effort quality rather than purely physiological output. 39:22 Exploring Eccentric Quasi Isometrics EQIs combine a maximal hold followed by forced eccentric lengthening. They accumulate large time under tension and eccentric impulse. EQIs are powerful but mentally taxing and difficult to sustain long term. 47:10 Periodization and Isometric Training Use longer, lower intensity holds earlier in the offseason. Progress toward shorter, higher intensity, position specific isometrics near competition. Post game isometrics can support recovery without additional joint stress. 1:05:48 Future Research Directions Measurement technology has driven the resurgence of isometrics. Push versus hold distinctions are becoming a key research focus. Future work aims to clarify muscle and tendon behavior during isometric intent. 1:13:00 Closing Thoughts and Reflections Consistency with foundational exercises drives long term progress. Isometrics are tools, not replacements for dynamic training. Coaches should match the method to the goal, not the trend. Quotes from Dustin Oranchuk “Tendons tend to need a certain threshold of intensity to get meaningful adaptations.” “The maximal amount of force you can push is almost always more than what you can hold.” “Isometrics let you own positions rather than just pass through them.” “Long holds are a great diagnostic tool for finding asymmetries.” “EQIs are effective, but they are very hard to push hard and regularly.” “Use the best tool for the job rather than trying to blend everything together.” “Consistency beats constantly reinventing your training approach.” “Isometrics compress joint motion so other systems can recover and adapt.” “Intent matters just as much as the muscle action itself.” “You do not need complexity to get strong adaptations over time.” About Dustin Oranchuk Dustin Oranchuk, PhD, is a sport scientist specializing in speed development, biomechanics, and force production in sprinting and jumping.

Actor/comedian Jeremy Piven is back for part two of his interview and talks about the ten years it took to get his movie made. "The Performance" is based on an Arthur Miller story in which a Jewish tap dancer is recruited to prance before Hitler. | Jeremy has made the jump from acting to stand-up comedy and still gets ridiculed by other comedians. | He grew up acting with John Cusack in his family theatre company in Chicago at age eight. *To hear the full show to go www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!

Behavioral scientists have been exploring whether a psychological reset can lead to lasting change. In this update of a 2021 episode, we survey evidence from the London Underground, Major League Baseball, and New Year's resolutions to look at accidental fresh starts, forced fresh starts, fresh starts that backfire — and the ones that succeed.  SOURCES:Katy Milkman, professor at the Wharton School.Andy Byford, former commissioner of Transport for London.Ferdinand Rauch, economist at the University of St. Gallen.Hengchen Dai, professor at U.C.L.A.'s Anderson School of Management.Bob Tewksbury, former big-league pitcher. RESOURCES:“A Large-Scale Experiment on New Year's Resolutions: Approach-Oriented Goals are More Successful than Avoidance-Oriented Goals,” by Martin Oscarsson, Per Carlbring, Gerhard Andersson, and Alexander Rozental (PLOS ONE, 2020).“A Double-Edged Sword: How and Why Resetting Performance Metrics Affects Motivation and Performance,” by Hengchen Dai (Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, 2018).“The Benefits of Forced Experimentation: Striking Evidence from the London Underground Network,” by Shaun Larcom, Ferdinand Rauch, and Tim Willems (2017).“Framing the Future: The Risks of Pre-Commitment Nudges and Potential of Fresh Start Messaging,” by John Beshears, Hengchen Dai, Katherine L.
