Navigating partnership trends, comparing the big three AI platforms, and Pinterest best practices. ----- Welcome to episode 548 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork is sitting down with our very own Emily Walker to talk through the updates shared in our latest blogging newsletter.  Food Blogging News Roundtable: Brand Partnership Trends, AI Platform Comparisons, and Pinterest Best Practices In this episode, Bjork and Emily break down exactly how to navigate the "Big Three" AI tools (ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude) and explain why building deep brand authority is your best defense in the changing search landscape. If you want to future-proof your business, doubling down on your niche expertise is no longer optional — it's essential. They'll then shift gears to practical platform strategies, covering why Pinterest is suddenly obsessed with your site's user experience and the specific metrics that actually drive YouTube growth. Whether you are planning your holiday marketing or just trying to streamline your workflow, this episode is packed with tips to help you adapt without sacrificing quality. Three episode takeaways: - The "big three" AI assistants aren't all the same: Bjork and Emily break down the key differences between ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. It's not about picking just one; it's about knowing which tool has the right "personality" and strengths for the specific content task you're tackling today. - Brand authority is your new SEO superpower: With AI changing how people search, keyword optimization isn't enough anymore. You'll hear about why doubling down on your niche and proving you are the expert is the best defense (and offense) in the era of AI-generated answers. - YouTube and Pinterest are craving different things right now: Stop treating all visual platforms the same! Pinterest is prioritizing user experience and site functionality, while YouTube is all about watch time and that crucial first click. Plus, Bjork and Emily chat through why consistency is still king for growing an audience through video. Resources: Subscriber to the Food Blogger Pro newsletter!

Today’s the day. Australia’s new Social Media Minimum Age Legislation kicks in—and families everywhere are feeling everything from relief to panic. In this special episode, Justin is interviewed by “Intrepid Reporter Kylie” in a reenactment of a newsroom conversation that never got to air. You’ll hear what this ban actually means, how parents and teens are reacting, why the timing matters, and what families can do to keep kids connected, active, and thriving—without the algorithm pulling them in. Short, practical, reassuring. A must-listen for every parent navigating summer holidays and a new digital reality. KEY POINTS Why parent reactions have been overwhelmingly positive How teens really feel—and why some are secretly relieved What the legislation does and doesn’t block The truth about VPNs, fake IDs, and workarounds Why school holiday timing may actually be perfect How this ban affects connection, loneliness, and real-life friendships What platforms are age-restricted vs. still accessible Why messaging apps aren’t the same as social media How Justin & Kylie navigated the changes with their own teen The essential role parents still play (the ban doesn’t replace you!) QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “I’m not anti-screen. I’m pro living a full, balanced, whole, healthy life.” RESOURCES MENTIONED eSafety Social Media Hub – full details on the new minimum age legislation Platform list of age-restricted vs. permitted services happyfamilies.com.au ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Talk early and often about the changes rather than enforcing them cold. Shift the focus to real life: encourage outdoor time, friends over, hands-on activities. Check your child’s accounts together and deactivate any that are now age-restricted. Discuss messaging alternatives (not algorithm-driven). Stay engaged—the ban reduces risk but doesn’t remove screen challenges. Reassure your child that boredom is normal and survivable—and often the gateway to creativity. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Nonprofit Newsfeed the hosts dive into the latest developments in the nonprofit sector, focusing on the aftermath of Giving Tuesday, challenges with donation platforms, and exciting AI opportunities for nonprofits. Key Topics: Giving Tuesday Overview: The hosts reflect on the impact and outcomes of the recent Giving Tuesday, with hopes that it reached the predicted $4 million mark to kickstart the fundraising season for nonprofits. Donation Platform Concerns: A significant issue discussed is the case of Flip Cause, a donation platform that inadvertently kept "shadow campaign pages" live, leading to a $500,000 loss in donation revenue. The California State Attorney General issued a cease and desist order after nonprofits reported these discrepancies. This incident underscores the risks associated with outdated or unauthorized donation pages, emphasizing the need for nonprofits to regularly audit and verify their donation processes and data integrity. AI for Nonprofits: Anthropic's announcement of Claude for Nonprofits offers a 75% discount on AI access, aiming to enhance nonprofit operations with AI tools for grant writing, engagement, and program evaluation. The hosts compare this offering to Google's AI tools, discussing pricing and the importance of choosing the right AI tools to maximize impact while ensuring data privacy. Mr. Beast and Rockefeller Foundation Collaboration: The partnership between YouTuber Mr. Beast and the Rockefeller Foundation aims to engage young people in philanthropy by combining storytelling with data-driven philanthropy. The discussion highlights the potential impact and pitfalls of influencer-led philanthropy, emphasizing the importance of ethical storytelling and the need to avoid reinforcing negative narratives about aid recipients.

Kevin and Sylvia launched iRide Arusha in July 2024, offering motorcycle tours and rentals in Tanzania. Within 18 months they scaled across four East African cities through a franchise model called iRide Africa, with partners operating in Rwanda, Nairobi, and Mombasa. The franchise structure allows riders to cross borders and book multi-country tours.The episode covers operational realities: importing equipment across borders, navigating tourism regulations, managing multi-country payment processing, and running rentals and guided tours as two distinct businesses with different customer profiles and sales cycles. Kevin and Sylvia share how they find customers through motorcycle clubs, price for premium buyers, and use immediate response times as a competitive advantage.TOP 10 TAKEAWAYS1. Test adjacent niches when your market is saturatedRather than launch another safari company in an oversaturated market, Kevin and Sylvia identified motorcycle touring as an underserved adventure niche in East Africa. Consider what adjacent experiences your destination supports that competitors aren't offering.2. Franchise models can scale faster than going soloWithin 18 months, iRide expanded across four East African cities through franchise partnerships. Partners share mechanics, bikes, marketing resources, and customer referrals. This creates a network effect where riders can start in one country and end in another, adding value no single operator could deliver alone.3. Target communities, not just individualsKevin reaches out directly to motorcycle clubs in major US cities. One Chicago BMW Riders club is bringing eight people in February. Booking one club creates the revenue of eight individual customers with a fraction of the acquisition cost. Find the clubs, associations, or communities that match your experience type.4. Customer service is a competitive advantage in developing marketsTheir immediate response times and willingness to hop on Zoom calls builds trust fast, especially for customers who've never been to Africa.5. Platform diversification requires testing, not guessingiRide is on Get Your Guide, Viator, Klook, WeTravel, and fielding Facebook messages, but hasn't found the magic channel yet. Test widely, track what converts, double down there.6. Price for the experience you're actually delivering, not your self-doubtKevin admits they severely underpriced at launch. Beginner business owners often can't see their own value clearly. If you're offering wow moments and authentic connections, charge accordingly.7. Guided vs. rental requires different marketing and operationsRental customers (experienced, self-sufficient, quick decision makers) need less hand-holding than guided tour customers (more questions, longer planning cycles, higher price points). These are functionally two different businesses with different messaging, pricing, and customer profiles.8. Gross revenue and net income are very differentVehicle maintenance, cross-border parts sourcing, and insurance eat into margins constantly. Build cash reserves and expect hidden costs, especially in asset-heavy businesses.9. Local language fluency unlocks competitive advantagesSylvia's Swahili fluency helped navigate Interpol holds on imported bikes, handle tourism police complaints from competitors, and build long-term supplier relationships. Language access isn't just customer-facing—it's operational power.10. Differentiation isn't just what you do, it's how guests connectGuests consistently cite the vastness of the landscape and local interactions (like lunch with Sylvia's 88-year-old farming grandmother) as their standout memories. Design for connection points your format uniquely enables.

The average reader need not go far in a bookstore before, knowingly or not, they encounter authors who started their careers by self-publishing prior to achieving commercial success. Examples include Margaret Atwood, Andy Weir, Colleen Hoover, Anna Todd, E. L. James, Scarlett St. Clair, and many more. Such stories of self-made writers are compelling and seem more attainable to others with the accessibility of modern publishing platforms such as Amazon, Apple, Google, Kobo, Wattpad, Webtoon, Radish, Inkitt, Qidian, Tapas, and Swoon Reads. However, in Inequalities of Platform Publishing: The Promise and Peril of Self-Publishing in the Digital Book Era (U Massachusetts Press, 2025) Claire Parnell uncovers in her examination of the two most popular—Amazon and Wattpad—these services in fact perpetuate systemic racial, gender, and sexual bias against authors of color and queer authors through their technological, economic, social, and cultural structures. At a time when there is a real reckoning with the discrimination that has resulted in publishing opportunities for only relatively few privileged authors—who are often White, upper class, and male—self-publishing presents itself as an equalizer of sorts. Exploring that idea, Parnell shows that these platforms are not just intermediaries for information; they structure content and users in multiple, often inequitable, ways through their ability to set market conditions and apply algorithmic sorting. Combining original interviews, walkthrough method, metadata analysis, and more, Parnell finds that self-publishing platforms reproduce challenges for authors from marginalized communities. Far from equalizing the market, the new platforms instead frequently perpetuate the stubborn barriers to mainstream success for BIPOC and queer authors. Learn more about your ad choices.

Your VCs have hidden value beyond capital. Most founders never ask for it.D'Arcy Martin has been Head of Platform at Outward VC for six years. She's watched hundreds of funding rounds close.

Her job is connecting dots most founders don't even know exist. LP introductions that become your biggest clients. Portfolio partnerships that unlock new markets. Co-investor networks that solve your hardest problems.But here's the thing: if you don't ask, you don't get.The hidden benefits we unpack:Why you should reference-check your VCs before signing (and how to do it)What value adds beyond capital: sector expertise, LP networks, portfolio ecosystemsWhy VCs are startups too (and what their fundraising journey means for you)How to build your dream funding round (and which specialisms to prioritise)Why some founders get way more attention than othersThe "Christmas list" strategy: What to ask for right nowD'Arcy shares the story of one founder who sat down for a catch-up, shared they were selling to similar customers as another portfolio company, and D'Arcy connected them. Today they're doing a joint partnership and it's one of their first enterprise clients in the US.

In this deeply human episode, Dr. Mark Bonta sits down with cardiac surgeon, scientist, and writer Dr. Paul Fedak for an honest look at the hidden cost of excellence in medicine. Dr. Fedak shares the story of the injury that forced him out of the operating room and into a profound reckoning with identity, purpose, and the culture of silence that surrounds clinician suffering.Drawing from years as Professor at the University of Calgary and Director of the Libin Cardiovascular Institute, he unpacks why perfectionism is so common in medical training, how surgeons learn to mask pain behind composure, and why emotional detachment has long been mistaken for professionalism. Together they explore the unseen burden clinicians carry, the pressure to perform without pause, and the moments when the mask finally cracks.Dr. Fedak speaks candidly about ego death, vulnerability, and rebuilding a life after losing the work that once defined him. He describes the colleagues who opened up only after he shared his own story, highlighting how connection and honesty can transform a profession built on quiet endurance.This episode examines the human side of medicine that rarely makes it into textbooks. Identity. Injury. Recovery. Presence. What it means to care for others while trying to stay whole yourself.A moving conversation for anyone in healthcare or anyone who has ever struggled with the weight of impossible expectations.Paul Fedak, MD, PhD's website : paulfedak.comEpisode Takeaways1. Surgeons are trained to push through pain, not acknowledge it.Medical culture rewards resilience and persistence, but that same conditioning prevents clinicians from recognizing and responding to their own injuries.2. Perfectionism is wired into medical training.Traits like list making, obsessive task completion, and performance under observation are common in medicine and often go unexamined despite their psychological cost.3. The mask of competence becomes automatic.Clinicians become so skilled at hiding distress that even close colleagues fail to notice warning signs. This silence leaves suffering invisible.4. Vulnerability creates connection and protects lives.When Dr. Fedak shared his story, dozens of peers came forward with their own hidden experiences. Openness is not weakness. It is safety.5. Ergonomic injuries in surgery are far more common than most people realize.The physical demands of operating are intense, yet surgeons lack the protections that other healthcare workers receive.6. Leadership shows the true burden physicians carry.Once in leadership roles, clinicians see the depth of burnout, fear, and quiet endurance happening behind the scenes.7. Losing the identity of “surgeon” creates an existential crisis.Stepping out of the operating room forced a complete reevaluation of purpose, ego, and self worth.8. Technical excellence is not the full measure of a doctor.Relational skill, empathy, presence, and human connection matter just as much as procedural skill.9. Medicine needs protected space for reflection.Without pause and presence, clinicians lose touch with themselves and the people they care for. Healing requires time, community, and grounding.10. System structures shape clinician wellbeing.The fee for service model rewards quantity over recovery, creating pressures that make self care feel impossible.11. Paying clinicians to care for themselves could change outcomes.If mental health visits, ergonomic care, and recovery time were compensated, more clinicians would seek help early.Episode Timestamps07:10 How one surgeon's work related injury forced a career pivot and a deeper conversation about wellbeing.08:25 The secret stories colleagues shared only after Paul opened up about his own suffering.10:30 Independent contractor status and why doctors lack the ergonomic protections nurses receive.13:00 The unseen emotional toll behind surgical careers and what leadership reveals about clinician suffering.16:00 Training teaches perseverance, but injury demands honesty. The conflict surgeons are never taught to navigate.17:28 Medical trainees and perfectionism. Why obsessive traits are six times more common in medicine.19:10 When the mask becomes permanent. How clinicians hide distress even from each other.20:00 Two tragic losses and the lessons Paul learned about checking in with colleagues.22:00 Vulnerability as leadership. Why sharing your story opens the door for others to heal.28:57 Did speaking out come with professional risks. What changed when Paul stopped protecting his own ego.31:55 Losing the identity of “surgeon.” The ego death that followed leaving the operating room.33:40 Beyond technical mastery. Why excellence must include human connection, empathy, and presence.34:46 How medicine can “create space” for reflection, grounding, and real conversations.37:50 The hidden financial pressures behind surgical work and how billing shapes clinician behavior.DISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

In this episode of HALO Talks, host Pete Moore catches up with good friend and industry veteran Rich Novelli, marking his second appearance on the show. With over 40 years in the HALO space, Rich shares how he's now turning his focus from traditional health clubs to the rapidly-growing world of corporate wellness. He discusses how his new platform, Alegria Wellness, leverages tech and personalized coaching to drive higher employee participation—especially in small and underserved businesses. Novelli explains why simply offering discounted gym memberships just isn't enough, how accountability and personal connection make all the difference, and what companies can do to create healthier, more engaged teams. Whether you're a business leader, HALO sector professional, or just passionate about corporate wellness programs, this conversation offers fresh ideas on boosting both individual and organizational performance. On empowering smaller businesses, Rich states, "I am targeting these smaller scale companies because that's where I feel the underserved market is at this point. It's getting with these small companies and really making a difference in an impact." Key themes discussed Growth of corporate wellness sector and market projections. Importance of personalized coaching for employee wellness. Challenges with low health club participation rates. Leveraging tech and apps for scalable wellness programs. Targeting underserved small businesses with wellness solutions. Team building and increased employee engagement through challenges. Removing barriers: Affordability, participation, and personalization. A Few Key Takeaways:  1.Corporate Wellness Is No Longer "Nice to Have"—It's Essential: Novelli highlights how the convergence of technology and corporate culture has pushed employee wellness from a "fringe" benefit to a strategic necessity. The sector is rapidly growing, with market projections to hit $25 billion in the next five years. 2. Small Businesses Are an Underserved Market: Most corporate wellness solutions target large organizations, but Rich is focusing on smaller companies (5–300 employees), arguing they need accessible, scalable wellness programs. His app-based platform, Alegria Wellness (powered by Nuvita), is designed specifically for this demographic. 3. Participation Is Key—And Personalized Coaching Drives It: Traditional health club memberships often yield low participation (only ~10%), but Novelli is aiming for 30–40% by leveraging both personalized coaching and tech. The program includes exercise, nutrition, stress management, socialization, and uses a blend of digital tools and personal touch to keep users engaged. 4: Team Building and Engagement Creates ROI: Wellness programs can be gamified for small teams, with six-week challenges that foster team spirit and healthy competition. These short-term commitments help boost engagement and can lead to growing participation rates, delivering meaningful ROI for employers beyond just health metrics. 5. Personalized, Hands-On Approach Removes Barriers: Rich stresses the need for tailored coaching and accountability, adapting to individual needs whether or not employees use a health club. His system also removes the heavy lifting for companies—providing marketing materials, analytics, and all necessary support—making wellness both affordable and easy to implement, especially for businesses without a dedicated HR department.  Resources:  Rich Novelli: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rich-novelli-4770856    Rich's First HALO Talks: https://www.halotalks.com/rich-novelli-highpoint-sport-wellness-general-manager/  Integrity Square: https://www.integritysq.com Prospect Wizard: https://www.theprospectwizard.com Promotion Vault: https://www.promotionvault.com HigherDose: https://www.higherdose.com

John Buckingham considers Alphabet (GOOGL) "growth at a reasonable price stock" compared to its A.I. peers. While he calls Nvidia (NVDA) the "clear" leader in the space, John says Alphabet is a buy even at current levels. John Freeman believes Alphabet still has room to run with its "platform game" and "vertical" approach to A.I.

Absolom was the perfect picture of a hypocrite. He would do anything to get promoted to the throne, and since he was evil, he had to cover up who he truly was.

In this edition of Web News, we dig into one of the biggest marketing debates heading into 2026: should you try to be on every platform? With SEO shifting beyond Google, brands are reevaluating how they show up across Reddit, X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and everywhere else people search for answers. We break down when it makes sense to focus on a single platform, when multi-platform posting actually pays off, and why “being everywhere” isn't always the optimal strategy. From content formats to audience behaviour, we explore what really matters as platforms evolve and fragmentation continues across the web.
