Wonder Media Network - an award winning female-founded, audio-first creative podcast studio - and iHeartPodcasts, the No.1 podcast publisher globally according to Podtrac, have launched "Divine Intervention," a 10-episode narrative podcast, fifteen years in the making. Host Brendan Patrick Hughes delves into one of the most tumultuous periods in the history of the Catholic Church, the United States and the personal lives of ten revolutionaries. Fifty years ago, a ragtag band of radical nuns in combat boots, wild-haired priests and their madcap friends swiftly became accomplished cat burglars in a hellbent effort to sabotage a war. They did everything they could to destroy the war machine - they scaled walls, picked locks, hid in broom closets and broke into federal draft boards, stealing the files of the young men about to be sent into combat. They napalmed these files in city squares. They shredded them at press conferences, harbored draft fugitives in church sanctuaries, and traded blows with J. Edgar Hoover's FBI. Many went to jail, others betrayed their friends, and some fell in love. "Working on this project for so many years meant that I was able to capture a lot of important voices that have since left us, like Howard Zinn," said Hughes. "This has been a decades-long labor of love about the people I grew up with - outlandish and fiercely political Boston Irish Catholics out to save the world." Episodes available here: Https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-divine-intervention-98132542/ Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

By the year 2035, we will likely be able to utilize AI to crunch complex data sets and produce far more accurate predictions of the future, for everything from stock market fluctuations to consumer trends. Already, meteorologists are using AI to improve weather forecasting—for instance, by more accurately predicting when a hurricane will make landfall. But BCG's Alan Iny says this does not mean that business leaders will be able to dispense with planning for multiple scenarios. Predictions will never be perfect—and everyone will have access to the same tools—so strategic planning will remain critical even as it evolves in new ways.

Branding in the trades? Most people don't think about it, but it matters way more than you realize. From rusted-out work trucks to outdated websites, we're digging into why your brand isn't just a logo—it's the first thing customers and potential employees notice before you even step on the job.Branding isn't just for corporate types in fancy suits. If you're in the trades, your brand is what tells people you're the real deal. That first impression—whether it's a clean truck, a solid website, or just returning a damn phone call—can make or break your reputation. And yet, so many businesses in the trades slap a logo on a truck and call it a day.We're getting into the nitty-gritty of what branding really means for blue-collar businesses. Do customers see you as the pro who runs a tight ship or the one whose truck looks like it barely made it to the job? Are you actually showing up online where people are searching for you? If your website looks like it was made on dial-up, it's probably time for a refresh.We're breaking down when and how to rebrand, why it's not just about the logo, and the real cost of neglecting your image in an industry built on trust.Highlights:Why branding is more than just a logo—it's how you show up every day.The biggest branding mistakes in the trades (and how to fix them).The real reason your website shouldn't look like it's from 1998.When it's time to rebrand and how to do it without overcomplicating thingsIf you didn't here we just launched a brand-new website and programs designed to support the trades community.
