The Playbook HR 2 7.31.26 by Fanrun Radio

LeBron James' move to the Philadelphia 76ers made headlines last week, but behind-the-scenes, Gov. Josh Shapiro lobbied for the deal. Is Shapiro making a political play for male voters disillusioned with the Democratic party? Meanwhile, former Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes dropped out of a crowded Democratic primary for Wisconsin governor, so who's leading the charge? And a preview from POLITICO's podcast, The Conversation, where Dasha Burns sits down with the Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Brendan Carr.  For more news and analysis, subscribe to the Playbook newsletter: politico.com/playbook 

This week, the boys explore the rapidly changing relationship between companies, creators and employees. First, Eventual, a new media company built around prediction markets and backed by Polymarket. Is this the future of accountable journalism, or simply gambling repackaged as news? Next, Gap expands its creator program to employees, giving workers the opportunity to earn commissions by promoting Gap, Old Navy, Banana Republic and Athleta. Are employee creators an authentic new marketing channel, or are companies quietly adding "influencer" to everyone's job description? Finally, brands such as Target are recruiting ordinary customers with as few as 500 followers to create promotional content. The influencer economy may be getting more accessible, but the brands receiving thousands of inexpensive advertisements could be the biggest winners. Marketing Winners and Losers Joe's winner is the New Bedford Whaling Museum and its ability to create a remarkable content and visitor experience. Robert's loser is Meta and Google, as the platforms continue shifting more advertising responsibility, risk and decision-making onto their customers. Rants and Raves Joe raves about seeing Idina Menzel perform with the Cleveland Orchestra and the powerful lesson she shared about embracing what makes each person unique. Robert comments on "formative debt" and asks whether relying too heavily on artificial intelligence could prevent people from developing the skills and experience they need to think, create and grow.

You do not need to figure everything out from scratch. You can cheat on the test. This episode comes from a talk I gave during our spring BrokerTalks events last April-May. I break down how mortgage brokers can copy a simple podcast strategy that already works and use it to build relationships, create trust, and generate business. I also share the two-show strategy I would use today: interview episodes to grow your network and solo episodes to show your expertise. The best part is that you can batch the whole thing in one afternoon a month. You do not need a studio, a big team, or thousands of downloads. You need a clear title, a simple format, and the willingness to copy what works and put it into action. In this episode, I cover: How to Cheat on the Test - Stop trying to invent everything yourself and start copying strategies that have already proven to work. The Two-Show Strategy - Use interviews to grow your network and short solo episodes to build trust and demonstrate your expertise. Why Local Podcasts Work - A small, focused audience can be far more valuable than thousands of listeners who will never do business with you. How to Find Content Ideas - Use client questions, closed files, market changes, and stories from your sent folder. How to Launch Without Overcomplicating It - Pick a clear title, record several episodes in advance, and publish consistently. You do not need a brand-new strategy. Cheat on the test, copy what already works, make it relevant to your market, and start.

Why isn't your retreat filling? It's one of the questions I get asked more than any other. And while marketing has changed dramatically since this episode first aired-with AI, SEO, and new ways people discover retreats-the core reasons retreats don't fill are surprisingly the same. That's why I'm bringing back this Throwback Thursday episode. In this conversation, I break down the most common reasons retreat leaders struggle to enroll guests and, more importantly, what you can do about it. We cover everything from mindset and messaging to marketing, pricing, and positioning because filling a retreat is never just about posting more on social media. In this episode, you'll learn: Why your belief in your retreat matters more than you think How niching down helps you attract the right guests The importance of writing copy that speaks directly to your ideal attendee Common marketing mistakes that prevent retreats from filling Why lead time matters How pricing, timing, and perceived value all work together If you've ever launched a retreat and heard nothing but crickets, this episode will help you identify where things may be breaking down. The strategies may be timeless- but they still work. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why retreat marketing starts with mindset How to identify and attract your ideal retreat guest Common retreat marketing mistakes Why your messaging may not be connecting The importance of retreat pricing and positioning How to create a stronger retreat value proposition Why visibility takes time Key Takeaways Belief Comes Before Bookings If you don't believe your retreat is worth attending, your audience will feel that. Stop Marketing to Everyone The more specific your audience, the stronger your marketing becomes. Your Copy Matters People don't buy itineraries. They buy outcomes and transformation. Marketing Takes Time One of the biggest mistakes retreat leaders make is starting their marketing too late. Visibility compounds over time. There Is Never Just One Reason Pricing, messaging, timing, audience, marketing, and mindset all work together. Improving just one area may not be enough.   The Retreat Leaders Podcast Resources and Links: Join our Mastermind in Austin!

What's going on in the Chinese economy? China reported GDP growth of just 4.3% last quarter. Consumption is sluggish, exports are booming, electronics manufacturers and chipmakers are reporting huge profits as car sales slump. Joe Ngai and Nick Leung dive into the Chinese economy in their latest book The Next China Is Still China: An Insider's Playbook for Winning in the New Era (Scribner, 2026), which came out earlier this year. The book is motivated by a question many executives asked amid new U.S. tariffs and COVID-driven supply shocks: Is there another economy that can replace China's massive consumer market and deep manufacturing base? The answer: No. Joe Ngai is a McKinsey senior partner and chairman of the firm's offices in Greater China. Frequently seen on media such as CNBC and Bloomberg, he has been named one of Forbes China's 100 Most Influential Chinese Leaders, and he has also appeared on Bloomberg Businessweek China's “Person of the Year 2025” list. Nick Leung is a McKinsey senior partner and member of McKinsey's global board of directors. He is also a lead-director of the McKinsey Global Institute, the firm's independent research arm, where he directs research on macroeconomics, global trade, and geopolitics.

J.D. Whitlock's path to becoming a health system CIO began in the U.S. Air Force, where he served in a variety of healthcare management roles, including a deployment to Afghanistan as Commander of the Patient Administration Division at Bagram Airfield in support of Operation Enduring Freedom in 2007. After retiring from the military, he spent three years at a federal healthcare systems integrator before becoming VP, Enterprise Intelligence at Bon Secours Mercy Health. For the past eight years, he has served as chief information officer at Dayton Children's Hospital.J.D.'s role at Dayton Children's gives him a view into two corners of healthcare that are often underrepresented in digital health conversations: children's health and smaller health systems. Dayton Children's is an independent pediatric system with about $900 million in revenue and 4,900 employees. It runs the same core platforms and must meet many of the same expectations as far larger organizations, but without the same resources. As J.D. puts it, there is no office of transformation; it's everybody's job.In this episode of Healthcare is Hard, J.D. joined Keith Figlioli to discuss the unique technology needs of children's hospitals, and how smaller systems can participate in healthcare's AI transformation. Some of the topics they discussed include:Why pediatric technology requires a different lens. Children's hospitals have unique demands because their patients are not just smaller adults. Digital tools must account for parents and guardians, adolescent privacy, state-specific confidentiality laws, and a patient population whose families increasingly expect digital-first communication. Yet pediatric use cases often remain an afterthought for vendors and investors. He argues that vendors and health tech leaders need to think about pediatrics earlier, because the children's hospitals that serve 25% of the population can't just bolt on adult solutions.Innovating without “science experiment” money. Dayton Children's cannot simply pilot technology because it's interesting. J.D. describes a more disciplined approach in which pilots are treated as phase-one implementations, with the expectation that the organization has already studied the evidence and believes a solution can work. That also means learning from larger pediatric academic medical centers, participating in collaborative networks, and focusing internal resources on ideas that have demonstrated value elsewhere. A platform-first approach to AI. Despite the flood of new AI companies entering healthcare, J.D. believes much of the near-term value will come from the core systems health organizations already use. Point solutions can still earn a place, but they need mature integrations and evidence of ROI. As agents increase AI consumption and introduce more variable costs, health systems will also need to scrutinize whether each new capability is being used enough to justify its expense.Matching ROI to the use case. Not every technology investment has the same kind of return. Some need to show hard savings, while others are about improving the clinician experience, supporting retention, or making care delivery work better. J.D. discusses how the key is being clear about which kind of value you expect.To hear J.D. and Keith discuss these topics and more, listen to this episode of Healthcare is Hard: A Podcast for Insiders.

A mission bigger than yourself is the foundation of lasting influence. As highlighted in Erik's interview with Paul "Waterboy" Brown, your calling shapes your authority and attracts devoted followers. - Voice Scales Impact Expertise alone changes one person at a time, but leveraging your podcasting voice multiplies your ability to impact thousands, even while you sleep.  - Implementation Leads to Transformation Information alone is everywhere, but helping your listeners implement creates true transformation. Become the guide who leads your audience beyond learning into action. - Storytelling Trumps Data Stories move people to believe change is possible. Infuse your podcast with tension, climax, and resolution. These narrative parables set you apart and build deep connections. - Relationships Compound Authority Guesting on strategic podcasts and borrowing the trust of established platforms is the shortcut to relevance. True growth comes from being in the right rooms, not having the biggest reach. - Authority Is a Choice Each expert Erik features intentionally engineered their position. It is never about luck or follower count, but about building trust, showcasing your personality, and moving into a category of one.   Episode Highlights: Why your podcast is doing the heavy lifting for 70 percent of your sales process The Authority Engineering Framework: Purpose, Persona, Parables, Platforms, Personality, and Positioning Why focusing on "viral" or "downloads" misses the point for coaches, consultants, and experts How implementing just one of these lessons will start filling your calendar with the right opportunities   Ready to strategically grow your podcast authority?

Hustle is loud, but clarity is what lasts.We sit down with Willem Venter, founder of ZEDMEN - Men premium custom menswear with boutiques in Cape Town and Johannesburg, to unpack how Willem sustained a demanding entrepreneurial life for 20 years WITHOUT letting his health, relationships, or mindset collapse under the weight of growth.Willem Venter has spent 2 decades in business and never stopped training — not because he has to, but because he's built a system where health, family, and business all get equal weight.In this episode, the founder of ZEDMEN shares the exact framework he's used since discovering Stephen Covey's The 8th Habit over 15 years ago — and why he still lives by it today.What stood out most: Willem doesn't talk about "hustle." He talks about scripting your life on purpose — training, sleep, nutrition, and family all scheduled with the same seriousness as a client meeting, because "how you do something is how you do everything."In this episode:How Willem splits his week between two cities and adapts his training schedule to protect family time in eachThe "4 intelligences" framework from Covey's The 8th Habit (SQ, IQ, EQ, PQ) and how Willem uses it to keep business and personal life in balanceWillem's non-negotiable: 7+ hours of sleep, even when travelling — including how he schedules flights around itWhy he treats his gym memberships as a wellness and happiness investmentThe "sharpen the saw" principle for avoiding burnout when business gets stressfulThe Tony Robbins racing-driver story he uses to explain focus under pressure: "don't look at the wall, look at the track forward"How a clear, specific vision (down to a picture on your phone) accelerates goals Willem's reading list for entrepreneursBIO Willem Venter is the founder and owner of ZEDMEN, a premium custom and tailored menswear house with boutiques in Johannesburg (Rosebank) and Cape Town (Century City). Since 2005, ZEDMEN has built a reputation — and a 5-star Google rating in Johannesburg and in Cape Town — on what Willem calls "Personality Dressing": engineering a client's wardrobe and personal brand around who they actually are, not what's trending. Twenty years in, Willem applies the same discipline to his own life that ZEDMEN applies to its clients — treating health, family, and personal development as non-negotiables, not afterthoughts.

This week, the State Department published a report accusing Cuba of being the “capital of 21st-century communism,” and of plotting an anti-American revolution. On this week's On the Media, why the Trump administration can't stop invoking Cuba as its “communist” bogeyman. Plus, hear from a former flight attendant turned independent journalist, who is doggedly covering ICE's removal flights. [01:00]  Brooke Gladstone looks at how President Trump and his allies are using dehumanizing language and the specter of communism — seemingly inspired by far right provocateur Jack Posobiec — to try to discredit all Democrats leading up to the midterm elections. Gil Duran, journalist and author of The Nerd Reich, explains the connection.  [08:47] The State Department released a report this week about the threat that Cuba poses to the United States, listing everyone from Mayors Zohran Mamdani and Karen Bass, journalist Amy Goodman, to a co-founder of Ben & Jerry's as agents of Cuban influence. Brooke sits down with Michael J. Bustamante, associate professor of Cuban and Cuban-American history at the University of Miami, to talk about the cherry-picked historical scholarship in the report, and the role that the Cuba bogeyman plays in American politics today. [31:25] Micah Loewinger speaks with Gillian Brockell, independent journalist and former flight attendant who is covering ICE flights and third-country removals. Brockell explains why all ICE flights, domestic and international, are unsafe, and how the Trump administration is trying to skirt around judges' orders by sending asylum seekers to countries, often far-flung, that they didn't come from.     Further reading / watching: “Why Trump Keeps Talking About Communism: The 'Unhumans' Playbook,” by Gil Duran Cuban Memory Wars: Retrospective Politics in Revolution and Exile, by Michael J.

This week, OpenAI reported that two of its models escaped their testing sandbox and launched an autonomous cyberattack, turning what sounds like science fiction into reality. We discuss the implications for efforts to align artificial intelligence and for the release of future A.I. models. Then, we ask how the United States should respond to Kimi K3, a new A.I. model from the Chinese company Moonshot AI that the White House says was built by distilling American models. Finally, we're joined by Veniamin Veselovsky, the chief executive and a co-founder of Preseen, to discuss A.I. superforecasting. He tells us why A.I. is starting to match and even beat humans at predicting the future. Guest: Veniamin Veselovsky, co-founder and chief executive of Preseen.

The first Golden Dawn episode was history, philosophy, and the extraordinary story of how a small London order shaped almost everything we now call manifestation, reality creation, and consciousness work. This one is pure application. Eight complete techniques you can practice starting today, in your own bedroom, with nothing but your body, your breath, and your willingness to step into the current. No robes. No temple. No initiation required. Just the actual working system Israel Regardie broke a fifty-year oath of secrecy to publish in 1937, translated into a form you can begin using tonight. ⠀ Inside the episode I walk you through each technique step by step. The Kabbalistic Cross that establishes your identity as a creative center of consciousness in sixty seconds. The Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram — the single most important daily practice in the Western magical tradition. The Middle Pillar exercise that activates five energy centers along your spine and charges your entire field with divine energy. The vibratory formula for speaking reality into existence. The consecration technique for turning any corner of your home into a consecrated space that grows stronger every time you enter it. The God Form Assumption that puts you directly inside the identity of your future self. The complete daily practice that ties it all together in twenty minutes. The Tattvic doorway for entering the elements at will. And the magical diary that every Golden Dawn student was required to keep. These are the techniques Damien Echols used to survive death row. These are the techniques Israel Regardie called the minimum foundation for initiating your own journey into the light.

Jimothy the raccoon escaped, and apparently OpenAI's models did too. Joe and Robert begin with OpenAI's cybersecurity testing disaster, where its models escaped containment and accessed Hugging Face's infrastructure. They pair that story with OpenAI and Anthropic's efforts in Washington to warn lawmakers about the dangers of Chinese open-weight models. Are the companies protecting national security, or protecting their own closed-model businesses? The boys then discuss why Facebook may be the new TikTok. Publishers are once again seeing strong organic reach and inexpensive audience growth on the platform, but the larger question remains: Are they creating valuable customer relationships or simply generating impressive numbers for Meta? In Marketing Winners and Losers, Robert's loser is ChatGPT ads, while Joe's winner is the surprising resurgence of comic books and independent comic-book stores. Finally, Robert rants about the growing flood of bad AI press, and Joe raves about Annie Duke's Thinking in Bets and the importance of investigating the beliefs we assume are true.
