Ryan Alford sits down with Justin J. Giangrande, Founder and CEO of NETWORK, for a wide-ranging conversation on how NIL is reshaping college sports from the inside out. Justin explains what athlete representation actually looks like in the NIL era, why schools, conferences, and brands are all still figuring out the rules in real time, and why the real power in college sports now sits with a handful of decision-makers who still have not fully aligned. He also breaks down how his firm approaches school negotiations, why the best deal is not always the biggest one, and what parents need to understand before trying to navigate this world alone. Ryan brings the business and brand lens, Justin brings the operator and agent lens, and together they unpack why NIL is both a mess and a massive opportunity. This episode is especially useful for parents, athletes, marketers, and anyone trying to understand where the business of college sports is actually headed. Topics Covered NETWORK's role in collegiate sports marketing and NIL Why regulation still has not caught up The tension between athlete opportunity and roster chaos How brands should think about NIL and athlete partnerships Why high school NIL may be the next big unlock What parents need to know before picking representation How schools can create more real endorsement value Why some sports still have massive untapped upside Connect with Justin J.

The Shadow and the Voice of Death: Unmasking the Power Behind the VoicesIn this episode, we explore the eerie tale of The Shadow, a character with hypnotic powers, unraveling a sinister plot involving transference of voices and monstrous experiments. This story offers insight into the darkness lurking beneath human cruelty and the lengths to which one will go for power and revenge.Most people underestimate the sinister power of experimental science—and the deadly danger when it falls into the wrong hands. In this chilling episode, the Shadow uncovers a scientist's terrifying plan to manipulate voices and turn animals into weaponized instruments of chaos. When a mysterious house in the Louisiana wilderness holds secrets that could threaten everything, Lamont Cranston must confront his deepest fears—and a madman whose experiments threaten humanity itself.You'll discover how a brilliant but troubled scientist, Arthur Whittington, used hypnotic powers and scientific transference to create a fleet of voiceless, savage dogs and a horrifying device that can transform a human voice into that of a cat. We break down Whittington's twisted laboratory where animals are manipulated to serve his deadly purposes—plus, the shocking technology behind voice transference and its potential for destruction. This episode reveals the eerie art of turning innocent creatures into instruments of terror, and how one man's obsession with vengeance and control drives him toward catastrophe.You'll also explore the Shadow's clever strategies to infiltrate the scientist's lair, unravel the mystery of a cursed family, and outsmart a villain who believes he's invincible. It's a story about the power of deception, the limits of science, and the moral lines we dare or refuse to cross. If you're ready for a blend of suspense, science, and the supernatural, this episode delivers a bold reminder: some experiments are better left undiscovered, and some voices too dangerous to listen to.Perfect for thrill-seekers, mystery lovers, and anyone fascinated by the dark side of scientific ambition. Tune in to see how the Shadow's unmatched detective skills and a dash of courage bring justice—and unearth truths buried deep within the shadows of madness. This isn't just a spooky tale; it's a stark warning about the cost of playing god with science and the deadly power of the human voice.

In this episode of Partnerships Unraveled, we sit down with Razvan Todor, VP Strategic Partnerships & Alliances – CSG at Bitdefender. Razvan brings a rare lens to channel work: a product leader who shifted from owning roadmaps to architecting ecosystems that protect users at population scale through telcos, ISPs, and insurance providers.Razvan starts with what it actually takes to move from millions of users to hundreds of millions: ecosystems, not sales acceleration. He draws a clean line between channel and strategic partnerships based on who owns the end customer. When Bitdefender owns the customer, it's channel; when the partner does, it becomes a strategic alliance where both companies co-create value inside the partner's portfolio. That shift changes the conversation entirely. The negotiation stops being about margin and becomes about direction, priorities, and where both organizations want to be three to five years from now.Scale also makes the product stronger. The more customers Bitdefender protects, the more threats it sees, and the faster it can cluster patterns like the California bridge toll scam that adapts its message by geography. Razvan also reframes the old debate between brand equity and partner-led distribution as two sides of the same success story. Strong brand makes signing new partners easier; big partners make the product sharper and lift recognition. The board-level question becomes how to maximize both together.On AI and deepfakes, Razvan is thoughtful: detecting that something is fake matters less than understanding the intent behind it. Cats dancing on Snoop Dogg and a fake Elon Musk stock tip are technically identical. The future of consumer cyber security is guaranteeing trust and authenticity._________________________Learn more about Channext

And did the Beeb, in ancient times, broadcast to England's* mountains green?... ...Till Reith has built Jerusalem, transmitting to England's* green and pleasant** land.   *and Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland's **and the less green and unpleasant bits too === In the third and final part of our General Strike special, 100 years on, we look at 10-12 May 1926, in a week that changed the BBC forever - as John Reith walked a tightrope of independence and impartiality. Plus the legacy of the strike, how it changed the BBC, and of course we couldn't resist bringing you the iconic moment of Reith announcing the strike's end, by reading Jerusalem with accompanying orchestra and choir. While there was no recording at the time, Reith re-enacted it in 1932. The newspapers, the bulletins, the occasional later reminiscence (Peter Eckersley, Stuart Hibberd...), this aims to be the most thorough - and yet I hope entertaining - retelling of the BBC and the General Strike. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I did putting it together.   With thanks to these excellent resources...

6-9 May 1926, in a week that changed the BBC forever... this is part 2 of our 3-part special on the BBC and the General Strike 100 years ago this week (at time of podcast release), two million strikers were out in solidarity with the miners. It brought unique challenges to the BBC - with Winston Churchill trying to take it over, a tightrope of independence and impartiality, and broadcast requests from the Archbishop of Canterbury (no), the Leader of the Opposition (no), the TUC (no) and the Prime Minister (come on in sir!). John Reith welcomes the PM to his own home, even rewriting his speech for him while he's on air. It's all part of what we're calling The BBC and the General Strike in 5 (Over-)Steps. This episode, we'll discover over-reaching editorialising of the news, Reith the rewriter and those notably absent voices of opposition. Hmm. But then again, what would you do differently... and would that hand to Churchill the BBC on a plate? All will become clear, in our day-to-day guide through the middle of the General Strike during those nine days in May 1926. This episode looks at 6-9 May. Last episode we looked at 3-5 May. Next episode we'll look at 10-14 May plus the General Strike's legacy (and Reith's apologies). I hope you'll agree it's a fascinating tale, worth us taking the long way round. The details - from the role played by Reith's creaky office chair to his mum listening to the PM through the study door, and from Earl Grey's doorstep duel to Peter Eckersley's shock when he discovers imbalanced news - are deserving of retelling. So thanks for listening, if you do. And you should. Join us!  Part 3 follows on 10 May 2026 - 100 years on from the moments featured.

100 years ago to the day (at time of podcast release), Britain began to grind to a halt. Our first and only General Strike. But while it was a time of national crisis, it was also an opportunity for the BBC - and particularly John Reith. With most newspapers ceasing publication, the BBC gained a news division, and a reputation, for independence and impartiality - at least, that's what Reith hoped. But it meant opponents and critics at every turn - from strikers believing they were being unfairly ignored, to Winston Churchill thinking the BBC were too generous to the strikers. Surely, thought Churchill, it was better for the government to commandeer the BBC, and become an audio version of his pop-up partisan paper The British Gazette? There's a lot to this tale. So to do it justice, we're breaking it into four podcasts. This is part 1 - with the birth of the BBC's news-gathering squad, and Reith locking horns with Churchill, though cosying up to the PM. And he announces the strike - and other interruptions - from his own home studio. Our guest is Professor Michael Tracey, of the University of Colorado at Boulder, and former head of the Broadcasting Research Unit.

This week in True Crime Today's Week in Review, the Murdaugh case is examined from the two structural angles that explain everything that followed — the legal and institutional dynasty that produced Alex Murdaugh, and the financial and behavioral architecture he built and maintained inside it.Part 1 of The Name establishes the foundation. For eighty-six years, three generations of Murdaughs served as solicitors in South Carolina's 14th Circuit, controlling prosecutorial decisions across the lowcountry. The legal implications of that kind of multigenerational institutional power are significant: it creates a parallel system in which accountability is selectively applied, in which the family occupies a position above the law they nominally enforce. Part 1 examines what that environment produces — the psychology of entitlement that develops when consequences are genuinely optional, the toxic family system dynamics that normalize the suppression of accountability, and the specific way that upbringing shaped the man who would eventually steal millions from his own clients and murder his wife and son.Part 2 documents the financial and behavioral record that ran underneath the performance. The fraud was not a single act of desperation — it was a sustained, escalating operation involving millions stolen from clients over years, maintained alongside a serious opioid addiction that required its own concealment infrastructure. Maggie Murdaugh was consulting divorce attorneys. The Mallory Beach boat crash in 2019 — resulting in the death of a young woman and a cover-up that implicated the family directly — was the first point at which the system that had protected the Murdaugh name for generations faced a test it couldn't simply absorb. Part 2 examines covert narcissism as a behavioral and legal framework: how it performs respectability, how it manages exposure, and what the documented record of Alex Murdaugh's conduct looks like when analyzed through that lens.The crime didn't begin at the dog kennels on June 7, 2021. It began with a name.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

"U-KISS Experience, the Power Behind the Character"… Kevin Woo Voices 'Saja Boys' Member

Electricity underwrites nearly every aspect of modern life, yet decisions about power, cost, and control are increasingly opaque. New York Times energy correspondent Ivan Penn joins Mark Labberton to unpack how data centres, AI, utilities, and politics are reshaping the grid—and who ultimately bears the cost. "The real focus is who pays and who gets paid." In this episode with Mark Labberton, Penn reflects on his journey into journalism, his unexpected path into energy reporting, and how covering power revealed the economic forces shaping daily life. Together they discuss electricity as a moral and economic issue, the rise of AI-driven data centres, nuclear power's return, utilities versus tech giants, consumer vulnerability, racial inequity in journalism, and faith as a commitment to truth. –––––––––––––––– Episode Highlights "The real focus is who pays and who gets paid." "Electricity is the most important resource we have." "The utilities once the Goliath have suddenly become a David." "We wouldn't have need for any of this if you didn't build a data centre." "To be able to stop abuse with a pen is a powerful thing." –––––––––––––––– About Ivan Penn Ivan Penn is an energy correspondent for the New York Times, where he reports on electricity, utilities, nuclear power, data centres, and the economic forces shaping the energy transition. He has covered energy and utilities for more than fifteen years and has previously worked at the Los Angeles Times, Tampa Bay Times, Baltimore Sun, and Miami Herald. Penn's reporting has examined nuclear plant failures, grid reliability, climate pressures, and the growing influence of technology companies in energy markets. A longtime journalist shaped by investigative reporting, he is also attentive to issues of equity, public accountability, and consumer protection. Penn is a graduate of the University of Maryland and was the first black editor-in-chief of its student newspaper. He also holds a master's in global leadership from Fuller Theological Seminary and was a John S. Knight Fellow at Stanford University. His work reflects a commitment to accuracy, fairness, and public service journalism.

We start by exploring why investors so often fall in love with certain companies—and how nostalgia, personal experience, and compelling stories can quietly override sound investment discipline. We'll discuss the real risks of concentrated single-stock positions, why familiarity often feels safer than it truly is, and why long-term investing success often requires behavior that runs counter to human instinct.Proxy voting rarely gets much attention, yet it's one of the few direct ways investors actually exercise ownership. We'll break down what proxy voting is, how it works, and what really happens to your vote when you own stocks through mutual funds or ETFs rather than directly. We'll also examine why firms like JPMorgan are rethinking the role of proxy advisory services, the rise of in-house and AI-driven voting tools, and why regulators are taking a closer look at who's influencing corporate decision-making.A listener question takes us deeper into a strategy we've mentioned before—but haven't fully unpacked: “superfunding” a 529 plan. We'll explain what superfunding is, how it works under current gift-tax rules, and when it may—or may not—make sense for families looking to fund education efficiently. We'll walk through the potential benefits, key tradeoffs, and planning considerations investors should understand before committing large sums to a 529.We wrap up with this week's market update, focusing on two forces shaping investor sentiment: monetary policy and earnings. The Federal Reserve concludes its two-day FOMC meeting with interest rates left unchanged, but markets are paying closer attention to the Fed's language and what it signals about the path ahead. At the same time, fourth-quarter earnings season accelerates with reports from Microsoft, Meta, Apple, and Tesla. We'll discuss what investors will be watching most closely—particularly whether ongoing investments in artificial intelligence are translating into sustainable profits and long-term value.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C.

In this episode, Tara sits down with newly elected legislator Diane Mitchell from District 21 to discuss why closing South Carolina's primaries matters, how citizens can make their voices heard, and the crucial 33-10 bill that could finally prevent unaffiliated voters from participating in Republican primaries. Diane shares her first-day experiences, explains how to contact the judiciary committee, and outlines what citizens can do to ensure their representatives act in line with their constituents' wishes. Plus, we touch on the upcoming press conference for the Student Privacy Act and how citizens can engage with government budget hearings.

Send us a textWhat really happens when a woman stops playing the role she was chosen for — and starts writing her own story? Pretty Woman isn't a fairytale about love saving a lost girl. It's a study of how perception, confidence, and self-worth transform attraction into something real — and dangerous.In this video, we break down how Vivian turns a transaction into transformation, how presentation and playfulness become tools of power, why seduction is never just about desire — but about emotional safety and control, and how confidence, humor, and vulnerability shift the balance between fantasy and truth.This isn't about a girl becoming “worthy” of love. It's about a woman realizing she already was.

Justin Montemurno: Systems, Strategy, and the Power Behind the PowerIn this high-voltage episode of the Get Deep Podcast, we sit down with Justin Montemurno—a Southern Minnesota native whose journey from wrench-turning teen to global infrastructure strategist is anything but ordinary. Justin shares his story of growing up in St. James, tinkering with engines, learning from uncles, and developing the work ethic that would power a career spanning technical sales, engineering, and global energy infrastructure.We dive into Justin's early experiences in manufacturing and process improvement at Kato Engineering, where he helped redesign workflows that massively increased output—and caught the attention of leadership.

From land transitions and farm succession to culture-building inside long-standing institutions, this conversation highlights the often unseen professionals who quietly shape the future of rural America.This episode is not about loud leadership.It's about intentional leadership — the kind that listens first, honors history, and builds for the next generation.Key Takeaways1. Intentional Leadership Starts with ListeningAmanda defines intentionality as being fully present — listening deeply to boards, staff, members, and stakeholders before rushing to solutions. Especially when stepping into a role held for decades, listening isn't passive — it's strategic leadership.2. Time Is the Most Valuable Resource Leaders StewardIf you take someone's time, you owe them your attention. Amanda challenges leaders to end meetings that lack engagement and to stop multitasking their way through conversations. Presence builds trust. Distraction erodes it.3. ASFMRA: The Silent Force Behind Land TransitionFarm managers and rural appraisers often work behind the scenes during some of the most emotional moments families face — death, succession, retirement, and land sale. These professionals ensure land is valued correctly, managed responsibly, and preserved for future generations.4. Land Is Personal and Business — Both Can Be TrueAmanda speaks from lived experience as both a farm kid and a farm wife. Legacy isn't about forcing the next generation into agriculture — it's about stewarding land wisely so future choices remain possible.5. Culture Isn't Fixed — It's FedOrganizational culture is a living system. Amanda emphasizes that culture must be modeled, nurtured, and protected — not “fixed.” Leaders must remove negativity, reward learning, and allow failure without fear.6. The Best Leaders Don't Have All the AnswersStrong leaders surround themselves with trusted advisors — a “kitchen cabinet” — and listen to those with expertise. Leadership is not knowing everything; it's knowing who to listen to.7. Agriculture Needs a New North StarThe old rally cry of “feeding the world” no longer resonates in an age of abundance. Amanda and Mark explore a new calling for agriculture — one rooted in stewardship, distribution, legacy, and thriving rather than survival.Notable Quotes“People want to be heard — and there's usually truth in what they're saying.” – Amanda De Jong“Time is the most precious resource we have. If I take your time, I'm going to listen.” – Amanda De Jong“Culture isn't a thing to fix. It's something you care for.” – Amanda De Jong“The best leaders don't have all the answers — but they listen to the people who do.” – Amanda De Jong“Land carries emotion, history, and responsibility — not just value.” – Mark JewellAction StepsAudit how present you truly are in meetings and conversations.Identify your personal “kitchen cabinet” — trusted advisors you listen to consistently.If navigating land...

President Trump's deployment of the National Guard from red states into blue cities isn't just a partisan attack; it's also a geographic one. In the 2024 election, Donald Trump won rural areas by 40 percentage points. And you could see what's been happening in Washington, D.C., and Chicago as a rural political coalition militarily occupying urban centers. The rural-urban divide in America has become so big it's dangerous — for our politics, and for democracy. And yet, just a few decades ago, this divide didn't exist. Urban and rural areas voted pretty much in lockstep. And for Democrats to gain power again, they'll need to figure out how to win some of those voters back.So how did the Democratic Party lose rural voters? And what could they do to win their votes back?Suzanne Mettler is a political scientist at Cornell University and the co-author with Trevor E. Brown of the new book “Rural Versus Urban: The Growing Divide That Threatens Democracy.”Mentioned:Rural Versus Urban by Suzanne Mettler and Trevor E. BrownFour Threats by Robert C.

Host David From sits down with Chris Koopman, CEO of the Abundance Institute, to unpack why data centers—the backbone of our digital lives and the rise of AI—are straining America's electric grid, and how policy is either clearing the runway or clogging it. Koopman explains the explosive growth in compute demand, why years-long permitting and legacy rules are the real bottlenecks, and how states can welcome next-gen infrastructure without sacrificing reliability for “grandma's AC.” He also highlights creative solutions—from private grids to siting innovation—and why permitting reform is essential if we want abundant, affordable power. Then, the conversation turns to nuclear's resurgence, especially advanced and small modular reactors that promise safer, scalable, always-on energy to meet AI's round-the-clock needs. Koopman makes the case for empowering communities through competition and choice: defend open-source AI, let startups flourish, and allow states to pick the energy mix that fits their resources—whether that's gas, wind, solar, or nuclear. If America wants to lead the next industrial revolution, we need an “abundance mindset” that unleashes builders and modernizes the rules holding them back.

On this day in Tudor history, 7 October 1589, the bells of Deptford tolled for William Hawkins: merchant, sea captain, three-time mayor of Plymouth, and the steadier, quieter elder of the famous Hawkins brothers. Buried at St Nicholas's, his monument is lost, but his impact isn't. In this episode, I trace how Hawkins turned Plymouth into a launchpad for Elizabethan sea power: From Brazil voyages with his father to a Plymouth shipowner and civic powerhouse Privateering in the Channel during the 1557–58 war and pushing London for reprisals after San Juan de Ulúa Building Plymouth's infrastructure (new water conduit, weighhouse, grain transport) and securing Hawkins' Quay Leading a bold 1582–83 venture via Cape Verde to the Caribbean (Margarita, Puerto Rico) Backing, and benefiting from, ventures tied to the 1560s transatlantic slave trade Helping marshal seven Plymouth ships against the Spanish Armada in 1588 Not a household name like Drake or John Hawkins, William was the engineer of capacity - the quay-master, quartermaster, and mayor who kept ships, money, and men moving when England needed them most. Had you heard of this Hawkins before today?
