Marilyn Gilchrist is a professional dog trainer, and "Who Am I Now" is her conversation with Michael Shikashio, lifted from his podcast The Bitey End of the Dog. Kevin Allison sets it up and returns at the end with his own thoughts. This is a companion episode to Still Dog People: Two Truths, released earlier in the week. (Content note: graphic dog attack) An hour into a routine welfare check on a foster dog, Marilyn stood up to leave. The dog grabbed the lead, she dropped it exactly as she had twice already that afternoon, and every muscle in the dog went tense. The weeks after taught her that the wound in her leg was the smaller problem. She had built a career and a self on being good with dogs, and now she could not be in a room with one she did not know.

Most MSPs can already tell you which of their clients' Microsoft 365 environments are misconfigured. The harder question is why so few get fixed — and what it takes to turn security visibility into security operations at scale. Dave sits down with Nick Ross, CEO of Cloud Capsule and a three-time Microsoft MVP, to talk about the operational gap MSPs can't close with assessment tools alone, and how his team is trying to close the distance between finding problems and remediating them across dozens of client tenants at once. Nick launched Cloud Capsule's Manage tier in May to move partners beyond assessment into remediation. He argues the biggest challenge in M365 security isn't visibility — it's execution: the knowledge gap around how to architect a policy, plus the manual hours to deploy it one tenant at a time. He walks through how the platform templatizes baselines, enforces desired state configuration so controls can't be quietly tampered with, and gives technicians the context to know whether flipping a control from red to green will flood the help desk with tickets. The conversation also digs into the harder business questions: whether pushing security work down to junior techs lowers the skill floor and introduces risk, how to prioritize 250+ controls without drowning in red, and the economic reality that many MSPs already know clients are misconfigured but can't get them to pay for the fix. Nick's answer leans on newer levers — the AI-readiness conversation, Copilot data governance, and cyber insurance renewals — to reframe security as table stakes rather than a hard sell.

Cold pitching isn't dead, but it's definitely not doing the heavy lifting it used to. As media, search, and AI reshape how people find information, getting your brand seen is becoming less about sending the perfect pitch and more about understanding how visibility actually works online.In this episode, Whitney breaks down why traditional PR tactics are losing steam and how SEO, digital traffic, and AI are changing the earned media landscape. The goal isn't to ditch media relations. It's to get smarter about where you're investing your time and how PR fits into your larger visibility strategy.In This Episode, We Cover:Why cold media pitches aren't as effective as they once wereHow SEO is changing the way brands should think about PR and earned mediaThe growing role of digital traffic in determining the value of media coverageHow AI is influencing the way people search for and discover brandsWhat PR professionals and business owners need to rethink to stay visible as the media landscape evolvesSubscribe to Brand Rescue for more straight talk on PR, marketing, and building a brand that people can actually find, and leave a review if the show has helped you rethink your strategy.

There's no series we feel more responsibility to pitch well for than the Critters series because they took their job so seriously as each new movie onboarded onto the series and you'll have to judge if we've done the movies justice! You'll hear which of us or if both of us pick up right where Critters 4 ends, which of us is going for a Planet of the Apes vibe (that shouldn't be hard), and which of us circles back to the beginning of Critters by including the prison planet from the original film. You can hear our commentary on that original film in mere days if you join our Patreon, so what are you waiting for? Enjoy!

Luck of the Irish.   Irish international amateur golfer David Howard  doesn't seem to need luck with all the talent he has. We had an inspiring conversation about chasing big dreams while living with cystic fibrosis. When we recorded this podcast David had not yet qualified for the Open Championship.  He did qualify just after we recorded and went on to play. Quoting from the Open Championship paper, "On the course, Howard more than held his own alongside the world's best. He started with a four-over-par 74 before finding his groove on Friday. A birdie at the 11th was his fourth of the day and took him to +2, within sight of the cut line. Howard ultimately missed out, dropping a shot at 14 to finish three-over for his week, but took heart from his display." Bravo David!  You're an inspiration.  David shares his journey growing up in Cork, Ireland, where he was diagnosed with CF at the age of seven and learned to balance daily treatments, hospital stays, and the demands of competitive golf. He also explains how his golfing journey began with Pitch and Putt, a sport similar to golf that features shorter holes and requires just a few clubs. The game helped him develop his skills and passion before transitioning to competitive golf. David talks about how advances in CF care have transformed his health, allowing him to compete at the highest levels of amateur golf while representing Ireland on the international stage. The conversation explores David's breakthrough victories, including winning the prestigious East of Ireland Amateur Championship, his ambitions of turning professional, and the discipline and mental resilience required to compete in elite sports. He also shares practical tips on how he stays mentally focused during a golf tournament, manages pressure, and keeps his confidence throughout competition. David reflects on the important role his family, coaches, and teammates have played throughout his journey. Beyond golf, David opens up about the emotional side of living with cystic fibrosis, the importance of talking openly about chronic illness and mental health, and why he is passionate about raising awareness through fundraising and advocacy. He also shares his hopes of writing a book one day and inspiring the next generation of young people living with CF to believe that their diagnosis does not have to define their future. Whether you're a golf fan, part of the cystic fibrosis community, or simply love stories of perseverance, this episode is a reminder that determination, support, and advances in medicine can make extraordinary dreams possible. David is an ambassador for Cystic Fibrosis Ireland. https://www.cfireland.ie Thanks to Nicola Delaney-Foxe for connecting us!

Prince Andrew was effectively pushed out of Pitch@Palace, the entrepreneurship initiative he founded to connect startup founders with investors, after his disastrous 2019 BBC Newsnight interview about Jeffrey Epstein. The interview intensified scrutiny of Andrew's relationship with Epstein and triggered an exodus of corporate sponsors, including KPMG, Standard Chartered and Barclays. With the initiative's reputation becoming inseparable from Andrew's scandal, he stepped away from the project as part of his broader withdrawal from public royal duties.Pitch@Palace's offices were subsequently removed from Buckingham Palace, and plans were made for the organization to continue independently under the shortened name “Pitch,” without Andrew as its public face. The episode demonstrated how quickly his Epstein connections destroyed what had once been presented as one of his flagship achievements. Sponsors, partners and the palace itself concluded that keeping Andrew attached to the initiative posed a reputational risk, leaving him sidelined from the very project he had created and promoted as evidence of his value as a working royal.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Pitch and Power is The Globe and Mail's World Cup podcast. In the 1980s, Margaret Thatcher's England was a country under strain, marked by industrial decline, social unrest and sharp political divides. In that climate, English soccer became a national problem rather than a point of pride. Stadiums crumbled, hooliganism spread and tragedy struck at Bradford, Heysel, and Hillsborough. The game felt like a relic: toxic, unsafe, unloved. Then, in the summer of 1990, something shifted. This episode traces how the 1990 World Cup helped detoxify English soccer and reframe national identity. We look at how an improbable tournament run became a cultural moment that opened the door to Britpop on the radio, “Cool Britannia” in the headlines and the Premier League era that followed. This is the story of a sport crawling out of the wreckage and a country finding a new way to love its national team. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

"The Settlement Cook Book" was published in 1901 and quickly became a kind of guidebook for Jews who had come to America. In her new book, "Recipes for the Melting Pot: The Lives of The Settlement Cook Book," author Nora Rubel delivers a story of immigration, culture, and assimilation — all themes deeply relevant today. She tells stories of food, noting that foods tied to Jewish culture (bagels, pickles) were not necessarily Jewish foods in other parts of the world. We discuss the lessons that come from a cookbook that is now 125 years old. In studio:Nora L.

The core structural shift identified is budget reallocation within technology spending, as funds are redirected from legacy software, hardware refreshes, and higher-cost labor toward AI infrastructure, automation, and junior-level hiring. This resource substitution is not additive but redistributive, with spending on AI solutions and related tools coming directly from reductions in traditional IT line items. IBM's $70 billion market valuation loss and delays in large deals signal that even established vendors are affected by this reallocation, with money leaving areas they once dominated. The primary evidence is IBM's issuance of its first profit warning since the early 2000s, attributed to missed large contracts and delayed deals, which triggered a 25% drop in share value, equating to $70 billion in market cap loss. According to Dave Sobel citing Semafor, this reduction was not due to an overall decrease in technology budgets but resulted from enterprise customers reallocating funds toward hardware and AI-related infrastructure. Omnia reported a 3.6% decline in global PC shipments during the second quarter, which was also attributed to rising hardware component costs driven by AI buildouts, causing delays and cancellations in endpoint refresh cycles. Supporting developments include Ramp and Revelio Labs research showing that organizations intensively adopting AI increased headcount by 10% and entry-level hiring by 12% over two years, while CompTIA found IT unemployment fell below 3% even as tech firms cut staff. Futurism cited further labor market reshuffling, with older workers in AI-exposed roles exiting the workforce and younger, cheaper hires being amplified by automation. ConnectWise's rollout of an AI-native platform and KPMG's survey highlighting the importance of leadership accountability in AI projects reinforce that resource allocation is shifting to tools and personnel accountable for AI operation and outcomes. Operationally, this reallocation puts pricing pressure on providers focused on legacy revenue lines such as per-seat licenses, break-fix, and hardware refresh, as these budget categories are shrinking. Evidence from Service Leadership's profitability report shows providers who adopted service desk automation earlier are now earning more per wage dollar, compounding their advantage. The practical implication for MSPs and IT service providers is to identify which client budget categories are “filling” and adjust offerings toward data readiness, AI deployment, and managed accountability, rather than defending legacy categories now facing structural decline. Failure to adapt exposes firms to revenue erosion and intensifies competitive risk from providers aligned with relocated client spend.   00:00 Watch the Money Move  04:37 AI Spend Is Funded by Substitution  07:19 Your Revenue Mix Is the Bet 10:24 Why Do We Care?  Supported by:  Guardz ScalePad 

The Approach Angle Nate Schwartz (@_nateschwartz) and Kyle Bland (@blandalytics) discuss pitch tunnels and their impact on arsenal construction. The podcast starts by talking about what a pitch tunnel is and why it can be effective against all types of hitters (including Jordan Walker, who Nate has to give a mention to after the Home Run Derby win). They talk about how release points and movement can confuse a hitter in terms of pitch recognition and affect their decision window when it comes to making a swing. Then, they talk about all of the different ways that the public has attempted to quantify tunneling. The next segment discusses arsenal construction -- like what makes pitches good tunnel partners and how bridge pitches can be effective. Additionally, they talk about why it can be useful to have pitches that don't tunnel with one another. Finally, they close with players that have interesting tunnels & mixes: Davis Martin, Bryan Woo, Nolan McLean, and Paul Skenes.

A classic RISK! episode from March 2014. Three live storytellers, three very different voices in the head. Vicki Tollemache spent her teens as the careful kid orbiting a wilder crowd. The summer before she turns 16, she decides to get her first kiss over with and arranges a late-night meeting with a boy she barely knows. The kiss becomes something she spends years trying to forget, for reasons she only understands much later. Kevin Allison hits the bottom of a lost decade with no career, no money, and no plan. He picks up a book about taking dictation from God and starts a notebook of his own, never sure whether the answers are wisdom or just his own voice talking back. Mollena Williams admits she's an alcoholic and lands in detox, where a four-foot hyena climbs out of the floor and refuses to leave.

This week's Throwback Thursday episode tackles one of the biggest challenges facing retreat leaders today: Pricing. Because let's be honest... Most retreat leaders aren't struggling because they don't know how to host a great retreat. They're struggling because they're underpricing their expertise, their experiences, and the transformation they provide. In this popular episode, Shannon Jamail sits down with retreat pricing expert Erin Haag to discuss the difference between attracting price shoppers and attracting value-driven buyers. Together they explore why so many retreat leaders: charge too little work too hard take on too much risk and end up making far less profit than they should You'll learn why pricing isn't just about covering costs—it's about creating a sustainable business that allows you to serve your guests at the highest level. Shannon and Erin also discuss: Why low pricing often attracts the wrong buyers The difference between price-sensitive and value-focused guests Why premium retreats often perform better during economic uncertainty The hidden costs of underpricing How to communicate transformation rather than features Why retreat leaders need to stop charging based on fear Whether you're hosting your first retreat or your fiftieth, this episode will challenge how you think about pricing and profitability. Because transformational experiences deserve transformational pricing. What You'll Learn in This Episode The difference between price shoppers and value shoppers Why underpricing hurts both you and your guests How to price retreats for profit and sustainability Why premium retreats can be more resilient during economic shifts The importance of communicating value over cost Common pricing mistakes retreat leaders make How pricing impacts the type of guests you attract Key Takeaways Price Determines Who You Attract The guests attracted to a $2,000 retreat often have different buying motivations than those investing $7,000 or more. Underpricing Creates Problems Many retreat leaders think lower prices mean more bookings. Often, the opposite is true. Retreats Are Not Vacations You're not selling a hotel room. You're selling transformation, growth, support, community, and results. Profitability Matters A retreat that breaks even isn't necessarily successful. Retreat businesses must be profitable to remain sustainable. Value-Based Buyers Think Differently When guests understand the value of the experience, price becomes only one part of the decision.   The Retreat Leaders Podcast Resources and Links: Join our Mastermind in Austin!

Why Pricing Matters in the Retreat Industry (00:00:17) Shannon shares why pricing remains one of the biggest challenges retreat leaders face, especially when they are delivering transformational experiences but not making enough profit. A Retreat Is Not Just a Vacation (00:01:09) Shannon reminds retreat leaders that retreats are experiences that create change, and believing in the value of the offer is essential. Welcoming Erin Haag Back to the Show (00:01:55) Shannon welcomes Erin Haag back to the podcast and shares why they are aligned on the topic of retreat pricing, even though their pricing models are different. The Problem With Underpricing Retreats (00:02:20) Shannon and Erin discuss why retreat leaders often get stuck in their heads around pricing and how undercharging can hurt both the host and the industry. Retreats Are a Business (00:03:19) Erin explains that retreats must be profitable if they are being run as a business, not a nonprofit or hobby. The Facebook Pricing Debate (00:04:10) Erin shares the story of a Facebook post where a retreat leader asked for advice after raising her retreat price to $6,000. Higher Priced Retreats Are Easier to Sell (00:05:02) Erin explains why higher priced retreats can be easier to sell because they attract value-based buyers instead of price shoppers. Tiffany's Buyers vs. Claire's Buyers (00:05:25) Erin uses the comparison of Tiffany's and Claire's shoppers to explain how price impacts the type of buyer a retreat attracts. The Economy and High-Ticket Retreat Buyers (00:08:10) Shannon and Erin discuss why lower-ticket buyers may be more affected by the economy, while value-based buyers are still willing to invest in premium retreats. Matching Price With Value (00:09:18) Shannon and Erin clarify that higher prices must be supported by higher value, luxury experiences, and a clear transformation. Building Profit Into Retreat Pricing (00:10:31) Erin shares how she recommends retreat leaders build in a minimum profit goal and aim for healthy profit margins when pricing their retreats. Don't Shortchange Yourself or the Industry (00:11:23) Shannon encourages retreat leaders to stop underpricing and instead use their profit to support themselves, hire others, give back, or create scholarships. Why Underpricing Hurts the Market (00:12:00) Erin explains how underpriced retreats condition buyers to expect unrealistic pricing and make it harder for professionals in the industry to earn sustainably. Income Can Match Impact (00:12:49) Erin talks about why women in the retreat industry need to make money and how that money often gets reinvested into families and communities. Selling the Transformation, Not the Thing (00:15:05) Shannon explains that retreat leaders are not just selling rooms, meals, or activities. They are selling the full experience and transformation. Why Women Struggle More With Pricing (00:15:36) Shannon shares what she has noticed as a venue owner: men often charge more confidently for retreats, while women tend to struggle with pricing. Money Mindset and Limiting Beliefs (00:16:19) Erin and Shannon discuss how women have often been conditioned to see money conversations as taboo, which can impact pricing confidence. How to Shift From Low Pricing to Higher Value (00:17:43) Shannon asks Erin how retreat leaders who have been underpricing can begin to make the switch to more profitable pricing. Start With the Math (00:17:57) Erin recommends looking at past retreat numbers, cancellations, profit, hours worked, and actual earnings to make pricing decisions from data instead of emotion. Calculating Your True Hourly Rate (00:19:05) Erin explains how retreat leaders can calculate what they really earned for their time and why many would never accept that rate in another job. Bake in the Value of Transformation (00:20:32) Erin explains that many retreat leaders forget to price in the transformation their retreat provides, not just the logistics of the trip. Price Shoppers Nitpick Every Detail (00:21:05) Erin shares how price shoppers often compare retreats to what they could book on their own, missing the deeper value of the retreat experience. Attracting Value-Based Retreat Guests (00:22:24) Erin explains that higher priced retreats help position the transformation and unique experience as part of the value. How to Work With Erin (00:24:00) Shannon asks Erin how retreat leaders can connect with her and learn more about profitable retreat pricing. Erin's Free Retreat Pricing Resource (00:24:12) Erin shares her free guide with top tips for hosting profitable retreats and explains where listeners can find it. Final Thoughts on Pricing and Profitability (00:25:05) Shannon closes the conversation by emphasizing the importance of guidance, self-belief, and profitable pricing in helping the retreat industry grow in a healthy way.

The episode highlights a shift from technology selection to operational risk management in the AI landscape for MSPs. Service providers are being forced to navigate the fast-changing interplay between AI models, the harness software that mediates their deployment, and the financial realities of consumption-based billing. The rapid proliferation of open-source and open-weight AI models, alongside market behaviors from closed vendors and regulatory interventions, is introducing volatility and uncertainty in both cost structures and client offerings. This dynamic creates structural challenges related to margin maintenance, vendor dependency, and responsibility for AI-driven decisions. The discussion cites the release of GLM 5.2, an open-weight model from Z AI, which now rivals expensive closed models on key benchmarks at a fraction of the cost. At the same time, large-scale investments by commercial AI vendors have yet to deliver returns on expectations, with reports indicating businesses that adopted AI are not seeing projected value. Specific attention is given to operational constraints such as compute scarcity, token consumption variability, and export policy restrictions impacting AI availability. The episode notes that these pressures are driving both vendors and MSPs to reconsider the viability of reliance on expensive, closed offerings versus investigating open alternatives. Supportive examples include the proliferation of AI “harnesses” (middleware layers like Perplexity, Claude Code, and Cowork) that sit between service providers and underlying AI models, increasing both choice and complexity. Token billing models are highlighted as a source of unpredictability for MSPs, with vendors like Atera and ConnectWise experimenting with different abstractions to shield or pass through token risk to service providers. The potential for on-premises AI deployments using smaller language models is discussed as a cost-mitigation strategy, though this raises further questions about data privacy, infrastructure burden, and long-term vendor roles. Additionally, uncertainty is flagged around sustainability of leading vendors, with projections that at least one major AI player may exit or be acquired within a year due to financial vulnerability. For MSPs and IT service leaders, these structural and supporting developments translate into increased operational and financial complexity. There is a pressing need to evaluate not just which AI technologies to adopt, but how to architect solutions that can withstand rapid vendor movement, cost swings, and evolving regulatory requirements. Practical safeguards include testing open-source AI models alongside commercial offerings, exercising caution in vendor selection, and closely monitoring evolving consumption billing models. Preparing staff and clients for adaptive, process-oriented approaches—rather than fixed solutions—is positioned as a necessary step to maintain resilience as the AI adoption cycle continues to correct course.

Kevin launches a new classic RISK! series for Disability Pride Month, revisiting stories about life with a disability from episodes past. Amy Salloway takes a job as guest playwright at Entropy, a theater program for adults with multiple disabilities. On her first day, a charming client named Aaron falls at her feet. The interview quickly becomes something Amy knows is off-limits. Mary Gossett meets Andrew on the Plenty of Fish dating app. He's a wheelchair user. Their first months together are equal parts giddy first love and daily logistical negotiation. Then, on the morning of what was supposed to be a landmark day, Mary loses feeling on the right side of her body. (And thanks to Amy Salloway and Jeff Grell, who organized the Twin Cities RISK! fundraiser where Mary's story was originally recorded.) • Leave your comments to these stories and find episode details and music credits at risk-show.com/podcast/the-best-of-disability-stories • Find this and future Best of Disability Stories episodes at risk-show.com/disabilitystories  Be Part of RISK!

Two people learn something about protecting and being protected, one at a mall in lockdown, one on a plane full of strangers. (Content note: gun violence) Jon Rappoport is on a Zoom call in his home office when his wife bursts in with news that their twelve-year-old twin daughters are texting from a nearby mall about an active shooter and hiding in Macy's. He drives there in flip-flops, half feral, and the girls keep texting him back, begging him not to come. Then Robin Gelfenbien takes a small plane out of St. Louis, freshly heartbroken and dreading her return to New York. She circulates a notebook around fifty strangers with an invitation to write a story together, then sets her sights on convincing a flight attendant named Valentino to let her read it aloud before they land.
