When Joe Custer describes Intrado's purpose, he begins with a story that traces back almost half a century. The company, he tells us, was born inside the Boulder County Sheriff's Department when someone asked whether there might be a better way to connect a caller in distress with a first responder. “Turns out they were on to something,” he adds. Today that idea has scaled into a mission-critical network touching roughly 90 percent of all 911 requests for assistance.Custer explains that Intrado “has to operate like a utility … we cannot fail.” Reliability is not a metric to be met but a promise to the public, one he refers to as “public safety grade.” Behind that standard lies a web of acquisitions—eight to ten over time—that were never fully integrated. That challenge, he says, became opportunity when Stonepeak Infrastructure Partners carved Intrado out of West Corporation and began investing to harden its network and modernize its operations.As both CFO and SVP of Operations, Custer leads a transformation aimed at restoring Intrado's position as the thought leader in emergency communications. The work goes beyond financial engineering; it's about aligning systems, culture, and purpose around a single mission: saving lives. “We want to be the most trusted authority in public safety,” Custer tells us, describing a workforce “deeply committed to the cause.” In his view, reliability, investment, and mission are inseparable—the essential framework for Intrado's next 50 years.

Machinima — a portmanteau of “machine” and “cinema” — refers to movies filmed inside video games. The art form had a renaissance in the 1990s, and many thought it had a future in Hollywood. Among the early pioneers were the New York animation collective the Ill Clan, who puppeteered characters in real-time inside the video game Quake, bypassing traditional animation rendering. This technique exploded into a cultural phenomenon through the 2000s with hits like Red vs. Blue, South Park's Emmy-winning World of Warcraft episode, and This Spartan Life, a live talk show filmed inside Halo 2's unpredictable virtual world. However, machinima.com faced controversies and eventually shut down, erasing its archive and leaving many original artists sidelined. Today, machinima is experiencing a powerful resurgence in documentary filmmaking. Projects like Grand Theft Hamlet, filmed during the pandemic entirely within Grand Theft Auto 5, proved that sophisticated feature films could be created in active, real-time virtual environments. Award-winning documentaries like The Remarkable Life of Ibelin showcase the medium's emotional depth and its potential for democratizing creativity. What started as a technical workaround has evolved into a legitimate art form that continues to redefine the meaning of movies, and games.

Industry leaders from Coder, Scale AI, and Suger reveal why 95% of AI pilots fail—and share the frameworks that actually work to get agents into production.Topics Include:Panel features leaders from Coder, Scale AI, and Suger discussing agentic AI.MIT report reveals 95% of AI pilots fail to reach production.Challenges are rarely technical—they're organizational, mindset, and people-driven instead.Companies lack documented tribal knowledge needed to train agents effectively.Many organizations attempt AI where deterministic, rules-based automation would work better."Freestyle agents" concept: Some problems shouldn't be solved by agents at all.Regulated industries struggle when asking agents to handle highly differentiated, complex tasks.Common mistakes: building one universal agent or separate agents for every use case.Post-billing workflows and business-critical operations aren't ready for AI's black box.VCs pressure companies to define "AI-native"—but nobody has clear answers yet.Scale AI uses five maturity levels; Coder uses three tiers for adoption.Success metrics span operational readiness, business impact, and technology performance indicators.Production requires data governance, context, A/B testing, and robust fallback mechanisms.Even Anthropic uses agents conservatively: research tasks and log triage, no write-access.Path to 50% success requires agile frameworks, people change, and proper AI talent.Participants:Ben Potter - VP of Product, CoderRaviteja Yelamanchili - Head of Solutions Engineering, Scale AIJon Yoo - CEO, SugerAdam Ross - US, Partner Sales Sr. Leader, Amazon Web ServicesSee how Amazon Web Services gives you the freedom to migrate, innovate, and scale your software company at https://aws.amazon.com/isv/

When most people think of the Thoroughbred industry, they picture racing, speed, and high stakes. But what happens to these horses after the finish line? And could their intelligence, courage, and sensitivity make them perfect partners in equine-assisted work?✨ “It's a win-win situation for the equine-assisted world and for the Thoroughbred world — an opportunity to give back to society in a meaningful way.” – Suzi Pritchard-Jones✨ “Any living creature is made up of energy. Unless you can express that energy, it gets bottled up and becomes destructive.” – Suzi Pritchard-JonesIn this compelling episode, Rupert Isaacson speaks with Suzi Pritchard-Jones — a breeder and advocate working to bridge the gap between the racing world and the equine-assisted community. Suzi shares her vision for a more humane future for Thoroughbreds, both during their careers and beyond, where welfare, horsemanship, and second careers in therapy and education take center stage.From Ireland to Florida to the UK, Suzi is pushing for change within an industry often misunderstood and criticized, championing transparency, accountability, and empathy for one of the world's most athletic and misunderstood breeds. Together, she and Rupert explore how Thoroughbreds — once the engine of civilization — can once again serve humanity through healing, learning, and connection.If you want to support the show, you can do so at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/LongRideHome

Ever hit rock bottom (physically, mentally, or in your business )and wondered how to climb back stronger? Zachary Del Monaco has done it twice before age 25. From spinal surgery that left him relearning how to walk to rebuilding his business and relationship with his father, Zach shares what it really takes to rise again as a solopreneur. In this powerful and personal episode of The Aspiring Solopreneur, he joins Carly and Joe to talk about grit, authenticity, and the small wins that build unstoppable momentum. Get ready for an episode that's part inspiration, part blueprint for resilience...and all heart.Q&As from the EpisodeWhat can solopreneurs do when their business isn't taking off as fast as they hoped?Zach reminds us that success often takes far longer than expected and that persistence is the differentiator. Most people quit during the slow, uncertain middle, but those who stay consistent eventually outlast the competition. His advice? Focus on small, daily wins instead of distant goals. Each mini-milestone builds momentum and confidence until those big results finally appear.How can solopreneurs rebuild after hitting a major setback or starting from scratch?Having faced both physical and emotional rock bottoms, Zach believes that every collapse offers a chance to rebuild stronger. Whether it's losing a business, a partnership, or confidence, setbacks are opportunities to reassess foundations. Instead of rushing to recover, solopreneurs should focus on what they've learned, redefine their “why,” and rebuild with a more stable mindset and structure.Why is authenticity such an important part of solopreneur success?In Zach's view, authenticity is what cuts through the noise (especially in a world where AI can make everything sound the same). He believes that people connect to real humans, not polished perfection. By being transparent about both victories and struggles, solopreneurs create genuine trust and attract audiences who want connection, not just content.

What is HairAid and how can a hairstylist actually change a life in one week? Ambrosia talks with Alannah Zilkowsky (HairAid project lead) and Corey/Hairdustry about HairAid's volunteer-led projects in Cambodia, the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, and Guatemala. Learn how teams teach core foundational haircuts in less than a week, why graduates can earn income immediately, who can volunteer (you don't need to be an educator), costs and logistics, real success stories, and why many stylists return feeling re-energized and burnout-free. If you've wondered how to use your salon skills for global impact, this is your playbook. Catch the Profit Marker Replay HERE: https://small-kiwi-98108.myflodesk.com/ao7u0l0qzq To learn more about HairAid: https://hairaid.org.au/ 1. HairAid is a volunteer-led charity that teaches core foundational haircuts in less than a week, so people in extreme poverty can earn income immediately. 2. You don't need to be an “educator” to serve basic skills. Willingness to follow HairAid's method, and a servant mindset are enough.   3. Projects operate in countries like Cambodia, the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, and Guatemala, partnering with local NGOs for lasting impact.   4. Students often experience their first formal education on day one, and by day's end they complete a live one-length cut with guidance.   5. The curriculum covers greeting, tools, sectioning, one-length, V-shape, long layers, round layers, graduated bob, and short cuts (adapted per location).   6. Impact is immediate: graduates open micro-salons, support families, and even return as translators/trainers, creating ripple effects.   7. Volunteers report personal transformation, learning presence, surrender, and gratitude, often returning re-energized and cured of burnout.   8. HairAid's logistics remove guesswork: pre-trip packets, packing lists, cultural notes, training videos, and on-ground induction day. 9. Typical projects host 12–18 volunteers; costs include a volunteer fee plus flights, many stylists fundraise via clients and salon events. 10.  Common fears (cost, travel, “am I good enough?”) are normal; pairing with experienced leads and teammates makes it manageable. 11. Service extends beyond the classroom: HairAid supports local social enterprises (hotels, eateries) to uplift the wider community. 12. Post-COVID rebuilding means fewer trips now, with more locations returning; connections on the ground help open future countries.  13. You can contribute even if you're not ready to travel: share the mission, sponsor a volunteer, or connect HairAid to credible local partners.  14. Bringing a spouse or friend is welcome, non-stylists can help with admin, cross-checks, or allied community projects.  1 5. Big picture: teaching a skill changes a life, restores dignity, and builds community, while reminding us why this industry matters.

In this episode, Ricardo discusses AI washing, a growing trend where organizations falsely claim to use artificial intelligence. Similar to greenwashing, AI washing occurs when companies exaggerate their AI capabilities to attract investors or appear innovative. In reality, many so-called AI systems are just basic automation or rule-based tools. This practice creates serious risks, including loss of credibility, legal issues, and project failure. Vargas highlights warning signs: flashy storytelling over science, unrealistic promises, lack of true AI experts, neglect of data quality, and poor governance. He explains that real AI projects require transparency, solid data, ethics, and humility—reminding project managers to avoid overpromising and to focus on genuine, data-driven value instead of hype.

We join a fair number of projects, and we often help teams bring their project up to our standard. This means bringing a lot of the same small pieces from project to project.In the latest episode of the No Compromises podcast, we rethink our “project standard” repo. Instead of a full Laravel skeleton, we propose a composable library of tool-specific, versioned configs (PHPUnit, Docker, etc.). We walk through the benefits for greenfield and legacy work, open questions about test organization, and how this approach scales as tools evolve.(00:00) - Why we keep our tooling current (00:15) - The “project standard” repo is aging (01:30) - Reference guide vs installable skeleton (02:30) - Supporting old and new stacks (versions, tags) (03:30) - Pivot: organize by tool and version, not app (04:30) - Example plan: folders for PHPUnit 11/12 (and beyond) (05:15) - What belongs where? Tests, traits, and context (10:00) - Docker-first thinking; where Horizon config lives (11:15) - Open questions: PHPUnit vs Pest vs “testing” folder (12:15) - Takeaway: evolve the repo as the tools evolve (12:45) - Silly bit Want help making your project as organized as one of our projects?

On World Homeless Day, the government has announced a new £36.5 million funding package to help Londoners facing homelessness this winter.

The New Homelessness Minister Alison McGovern is here to discuss today's announcement. And in part two, John Darlington, Director of Projects at the World Monuments Fund, joins us to talk about this week's Hidden London destination, St Dunstan in the East. Hosted on Acast.

Today, Simon Kuestenmacher and I discuss a topic that's at the heart of the “Great Australian Dream”: homeownership. For over a century, owning your own home was not just a rite of passage—it was an expectation. But that dream is slipping further out of reach for millions of Australians, particularly younger generations. We discuss the evolving landscape of homeownership in Australia, tracing its historical roots and examining the current challenges faced by younger generations.   We examine the impact of demographic shifts, migration, and investment trends on homeownership rates, as well as the growing trend towards renting.   The conversation highlights the complexities of housing affordability and the systemic issues that need to be addressed to ensure a fair chance for all Australians in the property market.   Takeaways  Homeownership in Australia is becoming increasingly unattainable for younger generations. Historical peaks of homeownership have been followed by significant declines. Demographic shifts, including education and migration, are impacting homeownership rates. The average age of first home buyers is rising due to economic pressures. Government policies are often short-term solutions rather than systemic changes. The divide between asset-owning and non-asset-owning families is widening. The 'bank of mom and dad' plays a crucial role in homeownership. Renting is likely to become the norm in Australia.   Affordability issues are compounded by rising property prices and construction costs. A comprehensive approach is needed to address housing affordability for future generations.   Chapters  01:48 – Homeownership Dream Slipping Further and Further 09:24 - Different Levels of Homeownership 09:20 – Peculiarities of Life in Inland Cities 13:31 – The Cost of New Construction Become Even Worse 17:45 – Projects in Australian Rental Landscape 21:49 – First Home Buyer Schemes 23:37 – Final Thoughts     Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing Successfully ·         Every entry receives a copy of a fully updated Michael Yardney Property Report   Michael Yardney   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Simon Kuestenmacher: Australia's leading demographer and partner in the Demographics Group   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Also, please subscribe to my other podcast, Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

NGI's Leticia Gonzales, managing director of North American natural gas pricing, is joined by Dave Marchese, CEO of Caliche Development Partners, to discuss the optimism and opportunities for natural gas storage development. Several storage expansions are underway in the Lower 48, particularly along the Gulf Coast. A greenfield project also has received federal approval in recent days. But financing has been a struggle for some projects, preventing them from being sanctioned and ultimately, brought into the market in a timely manner.  Gonzales and Marchese discuss the challenges and successes Caliche has found in expanding its assets in Texas and California, as well as the outlook for future storage developments to accommodate rising natural gas demand.

From the publisher: As the US struggles to provide affordable housing, millions of Americans live in deteriorating public housing projects, enduring the mistakes of past housing policy. In The Projects, Howard A. Husock explains how we got here, detailing the tragic rise and fall of public housing and the pitfalls of other subsidy programs. He takes us inside a progressive movement led by a group of New York City philanthropists, politicians, and business magnates who first championed public housing as a solution to urban blight. From First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt to the controversial city planner Robert Moses, many well-known historical figures made a convincing case for affordable housing in America.Despite the movement's lofty ideals, the creation of the Projects led to the destruction of low-income communities across the country. From the Hill District in Pittsburgh to Black Bottom in Detroit, predominantly Black neighborhoods were judged only by the quality of their housing. Husock looks beyond these neighborhoods' physical conditions to their uncounted riches, from local artists like August Wilson to vital community institutions. As he shares residents' stories, he honors what they crafted through their own plans, rather than those of city planners.Husock traces the history of public housing to contemporary debates on the government's role in the housing market. Through interviews with residents, he reveals how public housing transformed the lives of Americans and the physical faces of cities and towns. He ultimately critiques "repair and reform" efforts, making policy recommendations that address the core failings of public housing for the people it was once designed to help. Mapping out a better path for policy-makers, he lays a new foundation for upward mobility in America.For information on his book from NYU Press, check out: https://nyupress.org/9781479828432/the-projects/Support our show and Reach out and Read of Tampa Bay at https://patreon.com/axelbankhistoryAxelbankHistory.com is designed by https://www.ellieclairedesigns.com/Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory

This week, I'm answering a listener question that so many of us can relate to: How do you plan your homesteading projects? Do you have a calendar? If you've ever bought all the supplies for a new skill—like kombucha brewing or sourdough baking—and then never actually started, this episode is for you. I'm sharing why it's completely normal to go through different seasons in our homesteading journey and how not everything has to happen at once. I also talk about how I personally plan and prioritize projects, the simple tools that help me stay organized, and how I find little pockets of time in my busy week (even with kids at home). From embracing the ebb and flow of energy to letting go of perfection, this episode is your reminder that your homestead doesn't have to look productive all the time to be meaningful. In this episode, I chat about: Why unfinished projects are completely normal How to think seasonally when it comes to learning new skills The difference between passion projects and habits Finding small blocks of time to get things done My favorite planners and simple brain-dump methods Giving yourself grace to grow slowly and sustainably

Have you ever been caught off guard when the very first thing a prospect asks you is, “What's your price?” It can feel abrupt, maybe even a little irritating. Suddenly, you're on the defensive, worried about proving your value before you've had a chance to build rapport. In this episode of the Sales Maven Podcast, Nikki Rausch tackles this all-too-common scenario head-on and gives you practical strategies for handling it with confidence, credibility, and ease. When someone leads with “what's your price,” it's tempting to respond with “it depends.” But Nikki explains why that phrase is one of the biggest mistakes you can make—it creates mistrust and leaves the other person feeling dismissed. Instead, she walks you through simple, effective language you can use to keep the conversation moving forward while still honoring the question. One powerful approach is giving a price range. By saying, “Projects like this typically range between X and Y,” you immediately build trust, show transparency, and keep the door open to a deeper discussion. This keeps you positioned as a professional who respects the buyer's need for clarity while still allowing flexibility. You'll also hear Nikki's personal story about reaching out to a potential service provider and being brushed off with a vague “we'll get to that later.” That moment was enough to make her walk away completely—a reminder that prospects want real answers, not evasive responses. Nikki shares how you can avoid creating that kind of doubt and instead present yourself as trustworthy and approachable. Beyond live conversations, Nikki gives examples of how to respond in writing when the “what's your price” question comes through an email or contact form. She offers sample wording you can adapt, such as thanking the prospect for their interest, providing a range, and then extending an invitation to schedule a discovery call. This approach shows you take them seriously and gives them a clear next step. Perhaps the most important reframe Nikki offers is this: when someone asks about price, it's a buying signal. Instead of feeling annoyed, recognize it as an opportunity. By practicing your responses ahead of time, preparing your top three discovery questions, and issuing clear invitations after sharing a price or range, you'll set yourself apart from competitors who stumble in this moment. This short but impactful episode is packed with actionable takeaways. If you've ever struggled with the “what's your price” conversation, you'll come away with renewed confidence and language you can put into practice right away. Listen in to learn how to answer the question in a way that strengthens rapport, establishes credibility, and increases your chances of closing the sale.
