Podcasts about program directors

You've done gigs where nothing goes according to plan, but this episode reminds you that chaos is often the classroom. From sleeping on road cases at the Puerto Rican Day Parade to riding a flatbed packed with servo-driven subs that overwhelmed even earplugs and shooting cans, you hear how real-world pressure forges real skills. Mike deAlmeida walks you through learning to roll with it, figuring out systems on the fly before tools like Smaart were common, and walking into unknown gigs where the unknown singer/songwriter turns out to be Shawn Colvin. The lesson is clear: when you don't know the band, communication is everything. Ask how they sound, listen closely, and remember that for that moment, you are part of the band. You're playing the “mixing keyboard” today, so Always Be Performing. As the night wears on, the room changes and so must you. Heat, humidity, and ear fatigue quietly shift the mix, especially in the highs and high-mids, and Mike explains why gradual adjustments beat drastic moves every time. You're reminded to watch the show, not just the meters, and to listen first before using tools like Smaart to confirm what your ears already know. From sweating out microphones and treating them like EQ devices to protecting your hearing with custom molds, active earplugs, and smart exposure management, this episode ties craft, tech, and longevity together. Layer in legendary Celebrity Week stories, the Van Halen M&Ms lesson, and Beach Boys theatrics, and you're left with one guiding principle: mix a good show, every time, because that's how careers last. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 517 – Monday, January 19th, 2026 January 19th: Tin Can Day Guest co-host: Mike deAlmeida, Program Director, Audio Engineering at University of Hartford NAMM coming up!

And a singer/songwriter… who turned out to be Shawn Colvin 00:12:52 Communicating with a band you've never seen Very helpful tips: “Here's how our band sounds.” Guitar players who manage their levels between rhythm and solos As an engineer, you are a member of the band (for that moment) “You play mixing keyboard today” 00:20:37 Teaching the foundation in class, students often seek practical experience on their own Finding practical applications WHILE you're in class is gold. You learn so much. It all comes back to communication skills For FOH engineers, watch the show! Pay attention to the band members 00:24:30 Sound changes throughout the night Heat and humidity will cause ebbs and flows (especially outdoors, but even inside) Watch the highs and high-mids Sound travels faster through a thick medium Gradual adjustments so it sounds better Increasing the mains throughout the show to keep the perceived level due to ear fatigue Smaart Live for tweaking live sound Listen first, then use the gear to confirm what you're hearing 00:31:35 When I mix, I want to hear a good show So I tell the sound guy (me) to mix a good show 00:32:57 Using the tech to isolate live to find (and fix) problems Beyerdynamic MM1 – a measurement mic AND a podcast mic 00:33:48 Learning the nuances of problems 00:35:24 Hot lights to add to the sun!

In this season 8 premiere of Talking Sleep, host Dr. Seema Khosla welcomes three members of the AASM guideline committee—Dr. Rami Khayat, Professor and Division Chief of Pulmonary, Allergy & Critical Care Medicine and Director of Penn State Health Sleep Services; Dr. Shirine Allam, Professor of Medicine at Emory University and Program Director for the Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship at the Atlanta VA Medical Center; and Dr. Christine Won, Medical Director of Yale Centers for Sleep Medicine and Professor of Medicine at Yale University—to discuss the newly released AASM clinical practice guidelines for central sleep apnea treatment. The conversation begins with the rigorous process behind guideline development, clarifying the distinction between evidence-based recommendations and expert opinion. The panel systematically walks through each recommendation, addressing CPAP use across various CSA etiologies including primary CSA, heart failure-related CSA, medication-induced CSA, treatment-emergent CSA, and CSA due to medical conditions. A surprising recommendation against BPAP without backup rate generates discussion about why backup rates matter and why heart failure patients are excluded from certain BPAP recommendations. The experts tackle the controversial topic of adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV), explaining why it's now conditionally recommended even for heart failure patients despite SERVE-HF trial concerns. They clarify that newer ASV algorithms differ from devices used in that study and emphasize the importance of patient-provider shared decision-making and treatment at experienced centers. Practical implementation guidance covers oxygen therapy for heart failure and high-altitude CSA, including insurance coverage challenges. The panel discusses acetazolamide use across multiple CSA etiologies, providing concrete advice on prescribing and follow-up protocols. Transvenous phrenic nerve stimulation receives attention as an option for select patients, with candid discussion about its invasive nature, accessibility limitations, and high costs. The episode addresses the shift toward viewing CSA treatment as chronic disease management, including billing code G211 implications. The experts emphasize that guidelines guide but don't constrain clinical judgment, stressing the importance of monitoring beyond AHI—including patient symptoms and quality of life improvements. Whether you're treating complex central sleep apnea, navigating insurance coverage, or seeking clarity on when ASV is appropriate, this review provides essential guidance for implementing evidence-based CSA treatment. Join us for this season premiere that translates complex guidelines into practical clinical applications.

Picture this: a patient with early-stage breast cancer is sitting in front of you in the clinic. You are about to offer your expert management plan. The age-old question arises—should you really perform a sentinel lymph node biopsy, or could omission actually help this patient more? Today, we're tackling one of the hottest debates in modern breast cancer care.Should we rethink sentinel lymph node biopsy for select patients, and can skipping it actually improve quality of life without sacrificing cancer control? The stakes couldn't be higher—balancing accurate cancer staging and minimizing harm is the name of the game. Together, we're breaking down the latest evidence from the SOUND and INSEMA trials. What do these landmark studies mean for your patients, your practice, and the future of axillary management? Ready for a journal review that might just change your next consult? Hosts:- Rashmi Kumar, MD, PhDResident, University of Michigan General Surgery Residency ProgramTwitter/X: @RashmiJKumar- Melissa Pilewskie, MDAttending Breast Surgical Oncologist, Co-Director of the Weiser Family Center for Breast Cancer, Michigan Medicine Twitter/X: @MPilewskie- Stephanie Downs-Canner, MDAttending Breast Surgical Oncologist & Physician-Scientist, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Program Director of the Breast Surgical Oncology Fellowship Training Program Twitter/X: @SDownsCannerLearning Objectives:- Understand when and for whom it is safe and beneficial to omit sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in early-stage breast cancer patients.- Identify the risks associated with foregoing SLNB, including loss of nodal staging, and analyze how this impacts treatment selection and prognosis.- Review key findings from the SOUND and INSEMA trials and their influence on axillary management.- Discuss implications for adjuvant therapy, genomic profiling, and multidisciplinary clinical practice.- Recognize which patient populations should still receive SLNB, and the importance of individualized, multidisciplinary decision-making.References:- Gentilini OD, Botteri E, Sangalli C, et al.

Last year, Pope Leo XIV published an apostolic letter called “Drawing New Maps of Hope.” (This is not to be confused with his apostolic exhortation on poverty called “Dilexi te.” There are lots of types of papal writings and it's tough to keep them all straight.) Anyway, “Drawing New Maps of Hope” was all about Catholic education, and the letter itself was released to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Vatican II declaration on education called “Gravissimum educationis.” It seemed like a good time to talk to an expert on primary and secondary Catholic education and find out how things are going in today's environment. How do Catholic schools stand out in a crowded marketplace? How do we keep energy going even when some Catholic schools especially in the northeast and the Midwest have been forced to merge or close? So host Mike Jordan Laskey got his old college friend Dr. Michael O'Connor on the line, who serves as Program Director of Outreach and Professional Development at Boston College's Roche Center for Catholic Education. That essentially means Michael spends most of his time working with faculty and administration at partner Catholic schools and dioceses around the country, helping them live their mission even more deeply. Anyone interested in the present and future of Catholic education in the U.S. will enjoy hearing Michael's reaction to the new letter from Pope Leo and how Catholic schools are responding to our challenging times with creativity and boldness.

How can a wine story rooted in darkness leave you feeling hopeful about your life? Why is France such a symbol of freedom, possibility and reinvention for her? How can discovering France through art, cinema, and wine become an escape into a completely different world? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Namratha Stanley, author of Vineyard Melody: How One Woman Rebuilt Her Life, One Grape At A Time. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks.   Giveaway Three of you are going to win a copy of Namratha Stanely's terrific new book, Vineyard Melody: How One Woman Rebuilt Her Life, One Grape At A Time. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose three people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights Which childhood moments shaped Namratha's sense of courage and adventure and understanding of injustice? What is Vineyard Melody about and how does it differ from other wine and reinvention stories? Why did Namratha feel compelled to write this book despite the risks of telling her truth? What early warning signs in her marriage did Namratha only recognize in hindsight? How did the system ultimately fail to protect Namratha and how did learning French become an act of survival? Why did the language prove so valuable when an unexpected job opportunity in Paris arose? How did ridicule and resistance at home strengthen her resolve to pursue independence through work? What was it like to arrive in Bordeaux for her wine MBA? What did seeing the Eiffel Tower and having her first meal in Paris symbolize about freedom and possibility? Why did Namratha ultimately decide that leaving India permanently was the only path toward rebuilding her life and identity?   About Namratha Stanley Namratha Stanley is the debut author of Vineyard Melody, a memoir chronicling her personal and professional transformation. Once confined to a patriarchal household in India, where she was barred from working, she broke free from marital violence and moved to France in 2017 to pursue a Wine MBA.

Today, she serves as Program Director at INSEEC (Omnes), mentors women and students, and donates part of her wine sales to support children's education in India.

He embedded with Ukrainian forces, teaching lifesaving combat medicine in one of the most complex warfighting environments on earth—where FPV drones, AI-enabled targeting, electronic warfare, and prolonged field care are reshaping how wars are fought and how leaders lead. His mission: multiply capability, build confidence, and ensure medics could save lives when evacuation was impossible and every movement carried risk. This episode explores leadership as action, not theory: ·      Leading and teaching under live drone threat in active war zones·      How modern warfare in Ukraine has changed training, trust, and command·      The mindset required to mentor warriors in austere, high-risk environments·      Building resilient teams when technology, terrain, and tempo collide·      Why leadership rooted in purpose and service outlasts fear and fatigue·      What the Russia–Ukraine war reveals about the future of combat leadership  This is a story of service, courage, and responsibility—of a leader who chose to step forward, share hard-earned knowledge, and risk his own life so others could go home alive. It's a rare, firsthand look at leadership where preparation, humility, and moral clarity matter more than rank or title. If you're searching for insight into leadership in war, drone warfare, Ukraine, Russia, combat medicine, modern conflict, resilience, and warrior mentorship, this episode delivers unmatched perspective straight from the field.

On today's episode we're focusing on mindset skills, emotional regulation and mental toughness and feel that orthopedic surgery with Dr. Winston Gwathmey, an orthopedic surgeon at UVA. We start off our discussion today with an article from the September 2022 issue of the Journal of Surgical Research titled “Emotional Regulation in Surgery: Fostering Well-Being, Performance, and Leadership.” This article reviews the critical role of emotional regulation as a trainable cognitive skill that enhances surgical well-being, technical performance, and career longevity. It highlights how burnout and stress are pervasive in surgery and argues that individual-level emotional regulation training—paired with necessary system-level changes—can help surgeons cope with the inherent stressors of operative practice, complications, and high-stakes decision-making. Through multiple institutional case studies, the paper illustrates practical strategies for implementing emotional regulation curricula within surgical training, including mindfulness-based programs, mental skills training, and broader well-being initiatives. Across all examples, successful adoption hinges on leadership support, stakeholder buy-in, iterative design, and embedding training into existing educational infrastructure. Ultimately, the authors advocate for an integrated national curriculum that combines cognitive skills training, application to technical performance, and preparation for independent practice to promote surgeon resilience and sustainable careers.Then, from the July 2021 issue of the Journal of Surgical Research, we review an article titled “Mastering Stress: Mental Skills and Emotional Regulation for Surgical Performance and Life.” This article reviews how mental skills training and emotional regulation can enhance surgeons' technical performance, well-being, and career longevity by mitigating the negative effects of stress. It explains the physiological and cognitive mechanisms of stress and highlights how chronic stress impairs decision-making and increases burnout. The authors present evidence that mindfulness, cognitive training, and mental rehearsal improve surgical skill acquisition, stress resilience, executive function, and performance under pressure. The authors go on to outline common elements of successful programs. They also discuss barriers to implementation and propose a framework for integrating mental skills training across surgical education from basic instruction to independent practice. They ultimately advocate for the development of a national mental skills curriculum to promote surgeon well-being, reduce errors, strengthen leadership and teamwork, and improve patient and systems-level outcomes.We are joined today by Dr. Winston Gwathmey, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon and a Professor of orthopedic surgery at the University of Virginia.  He is the Medical Director for the Sports Medicine Clinic at UVA and is also one of the team physicians for both UVA and James Madison University. Dr. Gwathmey is the Program Director for the Orthopedic Surgery Residency Program at UVA and is very passionate about educating the next generation of orthopedic surgeons.  He has won numerous teaching awards including the Mulholland Teaching award, the Charles W. Miller Resident Teaching award, and the Dean's Award for Excellence in Medical Student Teaching. So, we're very excited to have him on today to talk about this important topic.

As WORT celebrates its 50th birthday this year, we've been reflecting on what the last half-century has meant to our community. But on today's show, host Douglas Haynes asks, what will the next 50 years look like? He's joined by the next generation of radio leaders, Olivia O’Callaghan and Daniel Stein from WSUM and Ted Hyngstrom from the Daily Cardinal who produces the weekly feature, Cardinal Call, on WORT. Record numbers of UW Madison students are signing up to volunteer at WSUM, say O'Callahan and Stein. There's interest from students wanting to play music on air and from listeners wanting to engage in digital content, like DJ spotlights and vinyl takeovers. Hyngstrom speculates that there's such a demand for radio because it's easy to consume, you can just put on your headphones and get music or news on demand. There may be something to the generational generalizations about Gen Z-ers ditching the algorithm in favor of analog media, from cassettes to radio. O'Callahan says it's rewarding to be a part of a medium with a long history. And Stein says that even if the medium is an old one, people are consuming radio content in very 21st century ways, by listening on apps, by setting reminders for their favorite shows, replaying favorite shows, and listening on the go.  Stein says that “radio is a big market for people who are looking for an itch that's not already being scratched.” Whereas AI is zapping people's creativity, people tune into WSUM or WORT “because they want to hear something authentic.” College Radio and community radio are shaping local culture, and that work excites these three students. Hyngstrom says that the work of “making something” motivates him, like an art form would. He's driven to work on human-centered stories shaped by expert knowledge, like the Daily Cardinal's recent AI issue. O'Callahan says that getting to know show hosts contributes to the intimacy of the listening experience of radio. She got connected to college radio as a way to meet people, and now she's getting professional experience by applying classroom work in a real-world capacity. And from multimedia content to dynamic programming, our guests envision a bright and innovative future for radio. Ted Hyngstrom is the producer of Cardinal Call, a collaboration between WORT and UW-Madison student newspaper “The Daily Cardinal.” As Podcast Director, he has overseen a comprehensive overhaul of how the Cardinal approaches audio journalism, working to integrate podcasting and audio journalism into the newsroom while simultaneously supporting multimedia storytelling. Academically, Ted is a sophomore Honors college student at UW-Madison studying Journalism and Political Science. Someday, he hopes to work as a local news multimedia journalist. Olivia O’Callaghan is a junior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison studying journalism and sociology. She joined WSUM Student Radio her freshman year, and worked as a Traffic Director in 2024 before being elected to serve as Station Manager for the 2025 calendar year. She hosts a music show at 10pm on Wednesday nights called “Kitchen Sink.” Daniel Stein is the Program Director at WSUM where he oversees the content broadcast on their FM and online signals, develops show schedules for nearly 200 active members, and enforces federal broadcast regulations.

On November 7, Commonwealth Club World Affairs of California, the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum, will host The Asian American Foundation's (TAAF) first-ever AAPI Youth Mental Health Summit. Under the theme “Sparking Solutions Together,” the summit will convene hundreds of experts, advocates, funders, and business executives to address the urgent and often overlooked mental health challenges facing Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) youth. From 2018 through 2022, suicide was the leading cause of death among Asian Americans aged 15–24, and the second leading cause of death among Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders. Yet despite being deeply impacted by the nation's mental health crisis, AAPI youth remain largely invisible in the national mental health conversation, and the data needed to understand their mental health is scarce at best. To fill the gap, TAAF released "Beyond the Surface" in December 2024, the most comprehensive study to date on AAPI youth mental health, which revealed: Nearly 1 in 2 AAPI youth screen positive for moderate depression; 1 in 3 have planned or attempted suicide; Stigma, family pressure, and silence keep many from seeking help; Only 53 percent feel comfortable talking with their parents; Just 1 in 4 have accessed formal care; and 46 percent have never seen a mental health provider. Building on these findings, the November 7 summit will bring together leading experts to spark dialogue on breaking stigma, closing gaps in care, and exploring how community partners and technology are reshaping the ways young people seek and receive support.  Join us online to hear from: Midori Francis, Actor, "Grey's Anatomy" Ryan Alexander Holmes Owin Pierson, Creator and Mental Health Advocate Lisa Ling, Journalist Noopur Agarwal, VP of Social Impact, MTV Norman Chen, CEO, The Asian American Foundation (TAAF) Philip Yun, Co-President and Co-CEO, Commonwealth Club World Affairs Rushika Fernandopulle, MD, Practicing Physician; Co-Founder and Former CEO, Iora Health; TAAF Board Member Juliana Chen, MD, Chief Medical Officer, Cartwheel Perry Chen,Director of Programs and Partnerships, Behavioral Health at Blue Shield of California Rachel Miller, Founder & CEO, Closegap Meena Srinivasan, Founding Executive Director, Transformative Educational Leadership Ayesha Meer, Executive Director, Asian Mental Health Collective Henry Ha, Program Director, Community Youth Center of San Francisco Anne Saw, PhD, HOPE Program Reid Bowman, MPH, CHES, Outreach & Program Manager, UCA Waves Rupesh Shah, COO of Crisis Text Line Tone Va'i, LCSW, Clinician, Samoan Community Development Center Amy Grace Lam, PhD, Chief Program Strategist, Korean Community Center of East Bay Christine Yang, ASW, Korean Community Center of East Bay Christina Yu, LCSW, Clinical Supervisor, Korean Community Center of East Bay William Tsai, PhD, Associate Professor, New York University Cindy H.

While getting an annual mammogram is pretty commonplace for many women, the testing isn't always accessible for many reasons: language barriers, a lack of insurance or being underinsured, the inability to get to a clinic, and childcare issues, just to name a few. Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's Mammography Van has a solution for that.
