Universal Basic Income Pilot and Nonprofit Trends: Insights and Implications Hosts: George Weiner (Chief Whaler, Whole Whale) and Nick Azulay (Senior Strategy Manager, Whole Whale) Main Topics: Sam Altman's UBI Test Results: Overview: Open Research, backed by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, conducted the largest UBI pilot in the U.S., providing $1,000 monthly to low-income participants in Illinois and Texas over three years. Key Findings: Recipients used the money primarily for essential needs, improved living situations, and personal goals. However, there was a notable reduction in workforce participation. The study emphasized the flexibility and agency cash transfers provide, though they didn't solve all underlying problems. Discussion: The hosts debated the broader implications of UBI, considering the nuanced impacts on health, mental well-being, and the economy. They highlighted the potential for both positive and negative outcomes, depending on the scale and implementation of such programs. Nonprofit Trends Report by Salesforce: Cybersecurity Concerns: Only 35% of nonprofits have adequate data handling policies. AI Adoption: Only 12% have officially adopted AI, though 65% are open to it. The hosts noted that many employees might be using AI tools informally, which could pose risks. Recommendations: Nonprofits should develop clear AI strategies and cybersecurity protocols to safeguard their operations and leverage new technologies effectively. Cybersecurity Incident in Columbus: Incident: A cyberattack forced the shutdown of IT services, affecting various nonprofits, including See a Brilliance, which faced payroll issues due to delayed city grants. Implications: The incident underscored the vulnerability of nonprofit IT infrastructure and the need for robust cybersecurity measures. The hosts also discussed the importance of financial planning and bridge financing to mitigate cash flow issues caused by delayed funding. Financial Irregularities in North Carolina Nonprofit: Case: Balanced Nutrition, Inc., led by the wife of North Carolina's Lieutenant Governor, was ordered to repay $132,000 in federal funds due to improper billing. Discussion: The hosts emphasized the importance of transparency and proper accounting in nonprofit operations. Publicizing such cases can serve as a deterrent against misuse of funds. Feel-Good Story: Big Beautiful Life: A charity in Essex, Vermont, founded in memory of 12-year-old Addie Carroll, prepares for its annual fundraiser. The organization provides joy kits and financial support to children with medical crises and their families. Closing Thought: The hosts reflected on the importance of proactive measures in nonprofit management, from adopting new technologies responsibly to ensuring financial stability and transparency.

Attorney Michael Bell and Past Chairman of the Independent Bankers of America, Brad Bolton, have separately disagreed in the press about their views on credit union purchasing community banks. Bell has been a CU legal advisor on almost every deal announced since 2008. Bolton has been very critical of these transactions as the ICBA believes they have unfair advantages, namely around their tax exemption. In their very first appearance together, Brad and Mike engage in a congenial debate – which uncovered more agreements than disagreements. We cover hot topics related to these unique mergers, including: A deeper dive into the tax exemption “advantage” How states are taking their own stances CRA requirements Cybersecurity risks Publicizing deal costs

On this special episode of the PokerNews Podcast sponsored by 888poker, Chad Holloway goes one-on-one with Shaun Deeb, who accepted a $800,000 buyout in his $1 million body fat prop bet against Bill Perkins. Nearly 11 months ago, the poker players agreed to a 14-month wager on Deeb's ability to bring his body fat composition down significantly. The bet had essentially no stipulations -- either get to 17% body fat by the start of the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP), or lose $100,000.  Last month, Deeb gave his X followers an update on his progress, and it was certainly positive in his favor. A January 25 Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan showed his body fat had dropped to 23.9% with still four months to go. That caused Perkins to begin proposing potential buyout possibilities on X, although nothing had been officially agreed upon. On Friday, he went in for another DEXA scan, and he was in even better shape -- 22.0% body fat composition. Then, on Saturday, the future Poker Hall of Famer informed his social media followers that Perkins had bought out of the bet for $800,000 just over three months from the start of the 2024 WSOP. Deeb shared all the details of his journey, why he opted to accept the buyout, and where he plans to go from here. Plus, hear his thoughts on the 2024 WSOP schedule.

“For these rapists, there is a sexual association with various concepts, has always shown aggression and the infliction of pain is eroticized. For this rapist, sexual excitement is associated with the causing of suffering upon their victim. The offender finds the intentional maltreatment of their victim intensely gratifying and takes pleasure in the victim's torment, anguish, distress, helplessness, and suffering;[4] the offender finds the victim's struggling an erotic experience. Sadistic rape usually involves extensive, prolonged torture and restraint. Sometimes, it can take on ritualistic or other bizarre qualities. The rapist may use some type of instrument or a foreign object to penetrate their victim. Sexual areas of the victim's body become a specific focus of injury or abuse. The sadistic rapist's assaults are calculated. They will often wear a disguise or will blindfold their victims.[4] Prostitutes or other individuals whom they perceive to be "promiscuous" are often the sadistic rapist's targets. The victims of a sadistic rapist may not survive the attack. For some offenders, the ultimate satisfaction is gained from murdering the victim.[2] The so-called "power rapist" is preoccupied with a fixed sexual fantasy that they try to act out in the rape, such as a fantasy in which they force a victim to have sex, and they then fall in love with them. These are the least aggressive of rapists, and are the most likely to flee if the victim puts up a strong resistance. "Vindictive rapists" commit physically harmful assaults and with the intent to degrade and humiliate the victim. "Anger rapists" are motivated by anger at the world at large; these are likely to inflict the most physical damage on their victims. These rapists tend to have a long history of violent crime of all sorts. Some are sexual sadists who enjoy the victim's pain and fear.[1] As mentioned above, when differing acts of rape are defined and typified, whether by popular convention, research of the subject, or otherwise, the results are often neither exclusive nor exhaustive in scope. Some instances may fit two or more definitions, while others may remain as yet undefined. One example of this are the following sub-classifications created by American researcher Patricia Rozee:[44][45] exchange rape - rape occurring as the result of bargaining punitive rape - rape used to punish or discipline theft rape - rape that happens when a woman or man is abducted, in most cases to be used as a slave or a prostitute ceremonial rape - rape involving defloration rituals status rape - rape resulting from differences in hierarchy or social class Where they are not already typed above, many of these otherwise distinct forms could equally apply to other classifications (e.g. prison rape that is also punitive rape, war rape that is also theft rape, etc.)” I am a sexual sadist survivor. I am so glad that I walked away from over 45,000 denominations of theological confusion also known as petty squabbling over Biblical interpretations. I am so glad that I walked away from a world that is a safe place for human parasites. I am so glad that I walked away from religious media outlets that have Trump supporters for program hosts on them. I am also so glad that I walked away from a world that pretends that both pastoral suicides and pew suicides are non-existent. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

Meta releases Threads - the first true challenge to Twitter's supremacy as the "digital town square". What was the thinking behind Threads? Will it spell the end for Twitter? Who is using Threads so far and how? Jonah Hill's ex-girlfriend releases a batch of private texts supposedly showing him to be abusive and it's got the digital sphere talking. Another example of how we no longer know where to draw the line between Private & Public. NY Times publishes a hit piece suggesting Clarence Thomas is irretrievably corrupt.

Length: 45 minutesSynopsis: This morning (5/5/23), in our Friday Q&A, we took up three(ish) questions: (1) To what extent should/may a rebbi - or teacher, parent, mentor, etc. - talk about their own personal struggles to help those whom they guide? (2) What are some guidelines for navigating workplace temptations involving members of the opposite sex? (3) To what extent should a person be open about their Judaism among non-Jewish coworkers? -----My Educational Philosophy Statement:https://kolhaseridim.blogspot.com/2019/07/my-educational-philosophy.htmlמקורות:רמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות תשובה ב:הרמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר קדושה, הלכות איסורי ביאה כא:א-ב; כב:א-ב,כדברים ל:טו,יט-----This week's Torah content has been sponsored by Moshe Zucker in honor of Joey and Estee Lichter, in recognition of all they do for the community.-----If you've gained from what you've learned here, please consider contributing to my Patreon at www.patreon.com/rabbischneeweiss.

What You Need to Know is we have to stop over-publicizing our kids. The slow-news holiday week brought on some extreme over-analyzing of NCAA women's basketball smack talk. Now an LSU player finds herself all over the news for doing what kids do. Reminds me of the crazy pressure we're throwing at kids across America to grow up and being spotlight figures on “gender transition” when we should be walking alongside them instead. Don't throw them into the limelight and demand they make permanent decisions.  John Schlafly, co-author and editor of the Phyllis Schlafly Report, talks about this week's column — Indictment Imperils the Rights of All. Also, John discusses what Robert Kennedy, Jr.'s presidential campaign might mean for the political conversation in America.  Find the Schlafly Report weekly at Townhall and PhyllisSchlafly.com.  Cynthia Hughes, founder of the Patriot Freedom Project, gives an update on their work to fight for the Jan. 6 political prisoners.

Privacy laws in different countries. Privacy laws apply to both public and private sector actors. United States. The Constitution of the United States and United States Bill of Rights do not explicitly include a right to privacy. Currently no federal law takes a holistic approach to privacy regulation. In the US, privacy and associated rights have been determined via court cases and the protections have been established through laws. The Supreme Court in Griswold v Connecticut, (1965) found that the Constitution guarantees a right to privacy against governmental intrusion via penumbras located in the founding text. In 1890, Warren and Brandeis drafted an article published in the Harvard Law Review titled "The Right To Privacy" that is often cited as the first implicit finding of a U.S. stance on the right to privacy. Right to privacy has been the justification for decisions involving a wide range of civil liberties cases, including Pierce v Society of Sisters, which invalidated a successful 1922 Oregon initiative requiring compulsory public education; Roe v Wade, which struck down an abortion law from Texas, and thus restricted state powers to enforce laws against abortion; and Lawrence v Texas, which struck down a Texas sodomy law, and thus eliminated state powers to enforce laws against sodomy. Legally, the right of privacy is a basic law which includes: 1. The right of persons to be free from unwarranted publicity 2. Unwarranted appropriation of one's personality 3. Publicizing one's private affairs without a legitimate public concern 4. Wrongful intrusion into one's private activities In 2018, California set out to create a policy promoting data protection, the first state in the United States to pursue such protection. The resulting effort is the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), reviewed as a critical juncture where the legal definition of what privacy entails from California lawmakers' perspective. The California Consumer Protection Act is a privacy law protecting the residents of California and their Personal identifying information. The law enacts regulation over all companies regardless of operational geography protecting the six Intentional Acts included in the law. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/law-school/support

The media won't speak truth to power. They can't. The power in question is what keeps the media going.Join us as we break this down and discuss why the mass media coverage of climate change is not the whole truth, what's missing, and why they keep it from us.We also talk about the result on society of this situation — climate anxiety, nihilism, and ultimately more consumerism, which is good for capitalism and the media machine.And we don't just leave you with that mess, we talk about what to do instead! Episode Transcript: [00:00:29] What is up? So today we are gathered here to discuss. A very important topic. Marc, why don't you start by telling me what. Told me about, was it your aunt or somebody who was telling you or asking you for some advice? Yeah, a friend of mine emailed me and I'll just share this one particular story. [00:00:52] There was a few people who messaged me right after Monday. Whenever the IVC report was released, the latest one. And this one particular person emailed me and shared with me that she has a son early twenties and throughout the whole week, he was super depressed, super sad, angry, pissed off just all the fields based on this report. [00:01:17] And she just didn't know how to respond. She. She acknowledged the truth. And then she knew obviously the work that we do. And so she emailed me asking for suggestions and ways that she can maybe direct her son's emotions, feelings, anger, pissed off ness towards something positive. So I gave her a handful of suggestions and links and things like. [00:01:38] And and then, yeah I think later that week, you and I talked about it and just sharing this particular story, and one thing led to another, and we started to have some really interesting conversations about where all this is coming from outside of the the science stuff outside of the IVC. Yeah. [00:01:55] And marc, you say where all this is coming from? Yeah. The climate anxiety. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Yeah. And it's been interesting the last couple of days, since that report coming out, reading all these articles about people responding to not even just articles, but even people's personal updates on Facebook and LinkedIn and Twitter about just, oh shit, this is really bad. [00:02:19] And so I think collectively we're seeing more and more people waking up and realizing what's going on. Yeah. And then what we wanted to talk about, like a couple of things. So there's a couple of things happening at the same time. One is the IPC report that came out on Monday. And then all of the media coverage that followed and. [00:02:40] All of, people's general reaction to that is it's climate anxiety. It's a feeling of helplessness. It's a sort of mass depression. So we want to talk about that. We want to address that and the hard feelings and things it and what can be done about it. But it also led to a conversation that you and I started having about the media and what. [00:03:01] Can expect from the media and what we can not expect from the media. So before we get into that, I wanted to share a little sound clip. I don't know if this is legal, can legally share a another podcast. It's like a little clip from another thing. The last four decades has been hotter than the one before. [00:03:20] And they've all been hotter than any time in the last several. I think it's a hundred thousand years, maybe 125,000 years. It's almost a guarantee that the next decade, this decade we're in the twenties, it was going to be hotter than the one before for this one. And the one after that will be hotter. And that causes all sorts of other problems. [00:03:41] It's the largest, most menacing source of rising sea levels. It means more of the world's ice is going to melt. We're warming at two to three times, the pace of the rest of the globe, those glaciers that are shrinking all around the world are going to shrink even more. In some cases they're going to disappear. [00:03:58] There was nothing to stop it to accelerating retreat. The ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica are going to keep melting within a few decades. We might have an ice free Arctic, which is a really horrifying phone and both that and glacier. Melt. And just the rise of temperatures is going to keep the sea levels rising more and more, maybe five inches, six inches, seven inches, whatever, five to 10 feet before the end of the century. [00:04:26] That's enough. Geez. I need a beer after listening to that. And this is what's. Inundating the entire world, in addition to the news about the war in Afghanistan, and I don't know, like a billion, other things that are just terrible, like the point is the news media loves to share when things are going horribly. [00:04:46] You know what I mean? Like that to the media is good news in a weird twisted way, because it means that they get more views. And they have something to report and they have something to pontificate about and they have all these experts that they can then go and interview you and ask them about their opinion and like their take from it. [00:05:09] And it just goes on and on. It's free content for the news and they love this. And so of course they are just digging in hard to the impacts of climate change of the climate crisis. And marc actually forwarded me this amazing article that helped us focus our thoughts on this whole issue. [00:05:33] And it was a business insider or. , and it's the headline is the media frames, the climate crisis as hopeless, but that's because they're hiding the solutions. And so for me, that was the ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, the climate news coverage is digging in hard on the doom and gloom. [00:05:55] This is hopeless. This is awful. It's a code red for humanity, and they're not sharing anything that people can do about it. And so of course the impact of that is everybody feels helpless. Everybody feels like we're doomed. What they're saying is. This isn't going to get any better for at least 30 years, which is wrong by the way. [00:06:21] It's false. We can do things about this, but they're just, yeah, they're just really the news media does not have what's the word? And incentive. Think about the long-term impacts of what they're doing. They also don't have an incentive on highlighting solutions, right? And there, and you made a comment a few minutes ago about the reason, like we only hear the best stuff and that's by design, they tap into emotional fears and all this other stuff, that, that drives us to want to learn more in this kind of what's the word I'm looking for this this really weird way of it's on the tip of my tongue. [00:07:05] Like w we, we keep doing what we know is wrong, but we can't help it, and so in this case, we keep watching the news. We can't help it because that's just how we get our information. And if we are solely relying on certain media outlets that we quote unquote trust, we feel that whatever it is that they report is the only accurate thing out there. [00:07:28] And that's a problem. That's a huge problem. It is a huge problem. One thing that I did in my immediate circle, anyway, as soon as I knew that the IPC report was going to come out I knew that what it was going to contain obviously it's not going to contain any surprises ah, climate change assault. [00:07:48] We would know about that already. So I knew that it was coming out and It was going to probably be more specific. It was going to be more dire because, since the 2018 report I haven't really seen any major policy changes. So obviously we're not shortening the gap between action and the time limit that the 2018 IVCC report said that we had to act. [00:08:15] So obviously. You can deduce that it's going to be sounding more red alarm bells and telling us that we have even less time to act. And so knowing that, and also knowing that the timing of the report coming out is before the next conference of the parties cop 26, is it which is supposed to happen in a month or two? [00:08:39] September? Yeah. Yeah. September. So they're putting that this report out so that the negotiators who negotiate on international climate policy and plan international next steps have the latest information. And so of course, it's going to be code red and sounding the alarm bells because they want to influence the policymakers to do what's right. [00:09:06] And act in line with the science and take it seriously. So in my personal sphere, which is basically like I told my mom, and then I posted on the climate designers network. I was like, Hey, so Monday, this report is going to come out. It's not going to tell you anything you don't already know, like you have been hearing from me for ever. [00:09:30] And in the community's cases, all of us that the climate situation. And emergency and action. It needs to be taken. And all the stuff that the report is basically going to be trying to tell people. So you already know this. You don't need to pay attention to the news. I know that the news is going to be dire. [00:09:49] I know that it's going to be grim. It's not for you. It's Jenner. It's to generate. The political the social will, that then leads to the political will to take bold and drastic action because that's what needs to be done. And in a way, I was looking forward to all of that coming out and then hopefully sitting back and waiting to see what the policymakers do with that. [00:10:14] But, my warning was intuitively knowing that people would pick up on the headlines and feel pretty helpless and feel pretty anxious, in climate anxiety. And if you're not in the space, as much as we are. Then that makes sense, right? If you have your normal life raising a family, nine to five, nine to nine, overwork kind of thing, you're only focusing on what's in your immediate surroundings. [00:10:46] And so the last thing you might want to take on as a hobby is learning and understanding the climate space. And so it makes sense that the majority of people are feeling this way. After this report came out because there's still, unfortunately a small percentage of people that are in this space. And even those that are in this climate space, they still subscribe to what it is that you're talking about. [00:11:12] Sarah. And maybe this is the difference between, Us and them in terms of designers. Just one thing I like to say, and maybe this is a segue into the next topic is that as designers, I feel like we're optimistic by nature in a sense. Where we look at a challenge and we try to find ways to make it better, to find solutions to focus on what's working and amplify what isn't working. [00:11:40] And so I think there's also your day-to-day worldview kind of thing in terms of how you would approach. What the report listed out, definitely. Yeah, there's a lot of people that don't have. That perspective. And I, I heard from marc what your aunt said. And then I saw this tweet just randomly from somebody who said, you have a climate misinformation problem and they're tweeting to tick tock. [00:12:07] And she said videos saying, it's too late to do anything about climate change are going viral, which is leading to climate inaction and a lot of mental health problems. And so, I want to talk about two things I want to talk about why the media reports things the way they do. And why it's not it's misinformation. It's propaganda. It's not the full story. Maybe it would be a good time to show that video that you just showed me. Do you want to share that? [00:12:37] He had another thing we're unsure if we can share, but what do they say better to ask for forgiveness than permission from five years ago? Lots of experience. Yeah, here we go. So the video starts about 60 seconds. And so we'll just show you that part. [00:12:56] We need them to tell us so we can fall in line. [00:13:00] Democracy is staged with the help of media that work as propaganda machine media operate through five filters. The first has to do with ownership. Mass media firms are big corporations. Often they're part of even bigger conglomerates they're end game. And so it's in their interests to push for whatever guarantees that profit critical journalists and take second place to the needs and interests of the corporation. [00:13:33] the second filter exposes the real role of advertising media costs a lot more than consumers will ever pay. So who fills the gap advertisers and what are the advertisers paying for audiences? And so it isn't so much that the media are selling you a product they're out. They're also selling advertisers, a product. [00:13:59] You, [00:13:59] how does the establishment manage the media? That's the third filter. Journalism can not be a check on power because the very system encourages complicity. [00:14:11] Corporations big institutions know how to play the media game. They know how to influence the news narrative. They feed media scoops, official accounts interviews with the experts they make themselves crucial. Process of journalism. So those in power and those who report on them are in bed with each other. [00:14:35] If you want to challenge power, you'll be pushed to the margins. Your name won't be down. You won't be getting in. You lost your access. You've lost the story. When the media journalists whistleblowers. Stray away from the consensus they get flat. That's the fourth filter when the story is inconvenient for the powers that be, you'll see the flat machine and action, discrediting sources, trashing stories, and diverting the conversation [00:15:09] to manufacture consent. You need an enemy of target. That common enemy is the fifth. Communism terrorists immigrants, common enemy, a boogeyman to fear helps corral public opinion, five filters, one big media theory. Consent is being manufactured all around you all the time. [00:15:38] So that is a video. I think I saw the video years ago and it was so it's basically the content of the video is taken from Noam Chomsky's book, manufacturing consent. And if you If you watch democracy now, the narrator, the voiceover is a needed men. But yeah, so he breaks down those five filters in that book much more than what the video does, but knowing that we were going to be chatting about this topic made me realize oh yeah, I forgot about this video. [00:16:05] I should totally share it. Yeah. Yeah. It's so good. Like the visuals, the eyeballs and the mouths and the people running the machine, how their eyeballs or mouse are so shut, like so amazing. Yeah. So anyway, the point is even if a journalist were to write an article that fully expressed the climate problem complete with the solution. [00:16:30] Because the solutions challenged that power structure that the media helps support the media will never completely report on those solutions. And it really took all of those puzzle pieces for me to be able to formulate that sentence in my head and share it here. So thank you. Thank you for sharing all of that. [00:16:51] That's amazing. Yeah, and I think it's just an example of why we really do need to question our news outlets. We can't just rely on, the, a quote from a particular news channel fair and balanced, there's always going to be not always what we tend to go to mass media. There are people behind the scenes. [00:17:14] And so we really needed to question their intention. We need to question their motives. We need to question their sources. And so it makes total sense that a lot of these media outlets are focusing. Part of the larger story, focusing on certain aspects of the story and not highlighting what we really do need to start talking about. [00:17:37] And again, as I mentioned, the fact that we're in the space more often, others, we're in this time climate space. Yeah. We see this stuff and, at some, knowing that we're going to be talking about this topic, It made me realize, we take it for granted. At least I take it for granted. [00:17:53] Cause for me, it's just, oh, I'm getting my news from places that I trust. And I still, question that at times. But again, for those who just have other things going on in their lives and the last thing that they want to do is do more research or more. Put more thought into where they're getting their news. [00:18:09] They just, turn on the TV or open up a browser and just rely on what's in front of them. What's put in front of them. And I want to veer off a little bit here and say the moral of this message is not just to question the media because we have a huge portion of society right now. [00:18:27] That really gets off on questioning the media to the point where they believe that the mass media is straight up lying about science, about facts, about things that happen. And that's not what we're saying. The mass media machine, I think, is still held to the idea that the reporting is fact-based. [00:18:50] They're not just straight up making up stories and I'm pretty sure I don't know this for sure, but I'm pretty sure that if something were revealed to be false, they would issue a correction right away. Usually you see that happen. Because if they report things that are false, they would lose the trust of people and they would go out of business. [00:19:15] So it's not, yeah, it's not that they're not reporting the truth. It's just that they're not reporting the part that challenges their business model and their power structures. There's like a two-sided coin to this. And I think that I'll give credit where it's due. I don't think that people who are anti-science are smarter. [00:19:36] Per se, but I will give them credit for having a sort of intuition perhaps where they can tell that something is not being reported fully or that there's something not correct in the advertising. In the media, in what the media is telling them The unfortunate conclusion of that intuition is that they think the whole thing is false and they throw the whole baby out with the bath water. [00:20:03] And they don't believe anything that they see on the news. And therefore they believe that COVID is a hoax and climate change is a hoax and they only listened to the talk, show people, the pundits and opinion editorialists on certain channels that they trust. Because those people speak to the intuition part of them, they speak to the feelings part of them and the emotions and say the things that feel right. [00:20:29] The gut of people who, you know, to their credit could tell that the mass media isn't telling the whole truth. Yeah, I wanted to interject that. And just to say that, like a question the media, but not the way that anti-vaxxers question. Sure, exactly. Yeah. So I think, let's come back to, the media that has. [00:20:50] Publicizing or showcasing what the report has in it. And that your clip that you played earlier, is this everything's on fire. Everything's gonna melt. Everything's fucked. So yes, they are. That is true. That is, that's been mean that is happening. And again, no one knows exactly. [00:21:07] We have all these models and AI and computers and things, and, they're getting better and better each and every year. But I think what we're trying to say, let's not have that be the focus of this story would be the main thing that we all talk about because it doesn't go anywhere outside of that. [00:21:23] What do you do when, it's like when you're at a party and someone, changes the topic and talks about a really depressing event that just happened. And my cat just died. It was like, oh, sorry, man. If you just kill the vibe, how many in our audience in our committee, Yeah, I am one of these people who add a party or something. [00:21:40] Someone brings up anything remotely related to climate, and then I'm like climate change and it's just a buzzkill it's totally stops. The conversation has to be really like, be out that's happening. Cool. [00:21:54] And then everyone walks away from you. Yeah. And so all of that, I think that's a whole other topic is why people don't want to talk about climate change at all. And so there was a huge push for awhile to get the media, to even cover climate change and to talk about it as the emergency that it is. [00:22:12] And now I think that has shifted a little bit And it's about the framing, in that video that we just watched, there was the common enemy w what'd they call it filter. So putting everything through a common enemy filter, but I think the common enemy filter that they're using in this case is climate change itself is the enemy. [00:22:31] So what they need to be doing and that what they won't do because of question's power is that they need to cover climate app. Genocide, generational murder intentional and knowingly committing murder. And when you frame it that way, in that frame is a subject and a object and the subject is the person or persons or institutions committing the murder. [00:22:57] And they won't ever do that because put it, putting it that way, puts accountability on the institutions, responsible for the crisis. Which are the institutions that the media supports and is funded by and makes them possible. So instead they leave that part out of the equation, which leaves people feeling helpless. [00:23:18] And this part is a little bit conspiracy theory, nihilists scared, depressed, anxious. People tend to be easy to manipulate and get them to buy more stupid shit. Distraction. Yeah. Yeah. Like I'm going to go out and buy a bottle of wine to distract me from how depressed I feel I'm going to go out and buy the new red dead redemption or whatever video game people are blind to distract me from, and then I need a bigger TV because I'm so immersed in this escapism. [00:23:50] And a better sound system. So it's really good for business. It's really good for capitalism. It's really good for the advertisers, for everybody to be anxious and scared and depressed, but that's not the way that it needs to be. So what I would like to shift into now, if that's okay, is What we need to be doing as maybe independent climate communicators, or maybe what we might want to talk about at parties instead of just climate change. [00:24:17] And there was one article that I found, oh, here it is. This was published on Nova raw media.com. I don't know what that is, but I like it. And the headline the title, it's an opinion piece. And the title is the IPC. Can't predict how we fight that. [00:24:37] And it's basically about they're like, okay, so on Monday, the IBCC delivered it's six comprehensive assessment report, blah, blah, blah. The report made for grim. It warranted that breakdown was now happening rapidly and yada yada, yada, and then it goes into all of that. And what I like about it is towards the end of the article, or like maybe the last half of the article starts to say, what is, and isn't possible. [00:25:07] Isn't just a matter of science. It is principally a matter of politics. If we want it to stop burning fossil fuels, we could, if we wanted to build a just green and sustainable world, we could, the problem of course, is that our governments don't want to, they refuse to take the action required because they are wedded to an economic model. [00:25:31] That depends on growth. That incentivizes destructive practices for short-term profit and that values the private accumulation of wealth over the continued existence of life on this planet. I add to that there also at the same time in bed with large media corporations. Yes. So they have no intention of doing that anytime soon, enacting extreme progressive climate policy because it affects their bottom line. [00:26:02] So the point is. We don't have to accept that the next 30 years will be more of the same heat waves and flooding and fire. We don't have to except the death and displacement of millions of people, which is predicted by the IBCC report, if we do nothing. So I think that there's this. Media led peeling conclusion that this is baked in and done. [00:26:39] But look at over the last a hundred years, how much change has happened when people stand up and demand? Change, like in my lifetime, I've seen the Berlin wall being torn down and entire governments being re imagined and configured. Nobody believes that's possible as something as gargantuan as the United States and Western Europe and the whole world bank outlay crap that's going on. [00:27:09] But. , the physics of the reality of the situation that we're in demand to change. And we have science and truth on our side to demand change the growth imperative for never an in-growth to payback that debts that governments have been hanging out with for decades. It doesn't work anymore. And at some point, somebody is going to be like, all right. [00:27:40] All right. I'm just going to walk away from this debt and we're going to start over. Like they did at the end of world war two, all the allies, the leaders, the negotiators, whatever got together. And they designed the new monetary system and 22 days, and then released it to the public. Not even in beta, didn't have a QA team come on. [00:28:01] There were I'm guaranteeing you, there were no women in the room. Colonies the countries that we're in developing times we're not invited to the table. Probably very few people of color in the room. This was designed by rich white dudes who were drunk on power and had let's just be graceful and say they had biases. [00:28:26] They had no idea about evolution theory, ecological science, they had very limited knowledge about how the world works and they had some half-baked theories that they called economy. Science, which is not a science, it's a fake science and learning. But they had theories about what would bring wellbeing and peace that, which I guess were euphemisms for profit and through trial and error over the last, however many decades, math is hard. [00:29:02] The shit don't work, guys. W I w it doesn't work, but they're unwilling to admit it because they're in too deep, they have so much sunk costs and all of these infrastructures and systems that are already in place. And I think they're at a point now where it's fuck it. Let's just squeeze everything as much as possible, every ounce as possible. [00:29:22] Yeah, most of them are so old that they don't have to face the consequences. Exactly. So that's why it is on us and people younger than us even to stand up to them and be like, no, that's not okay. This is not okay. And they are using the media to make us complacent and anxious and nihilistic and everything else because. [00:29:46] That drains our energy from being able to say, oh wait, actually, Hey, there's 20 million of us and six of you. So this is not okay. Yeah. They know it works. So they just keep at it and unwilling to hide. Or put the focus on solutions, unwilling to highlight the heroes that are already doing the work. [00:30:09] It's not in their interest because for one, it proves that this can be addressed climate, can be addressed, but also it affects their bottom line as well. Again, like I'm so in it, because this is what we do. And, talk to me about kelp farming, regenerative, agriculture, carbon removal, all these amazing solutions. [00:30:28] And those three out of countless solutions. Obviously project drawdown was, I think one of the first major, if I can use this word breakthroughs in this topic, Sarah, that really started solutions. Exactly. And nobody else would tell us that there were solutions get off of fossil fuels. And obviously is what needs to happen, but that's not on any of like you or me. [00:30:56] Yeah. We can't do that. The decision makers there. Let me just go turn the switch off in the other room. So then we all got convinced that like we had to do. Turn our air conditioning to 80 degrees to save energy. And that was going to solve it. Yeah. You bring up a good point here. I think the other ingredient to all this too, is that. [00:31:15] These organizations, these corporations, they're putting the onus on us by design. And so they're deflecting all of their responsibility towards us to change our ways. And as we all know, our individual actions as good as they are, as, as much as we should all do them is collectively not going to move into. [00:31:35] At all. And so Sarah, I want to bring this up real quick. You were talking about, after world war two and all these people started to create this new this new economic structure. I keep going back to, I know we've mentioned this last time, the book that we're both reading and unless you finished but I'm still reading less as more. [00:31:52] And I still keep going back to this. I think about this probably every other day. There's a blurb in there pretty early on. About how it's crazy, how we can't. We can't even bring up the idea of changing our economic system. That just is oh my God, what are you some crazy lunatic? Like we can be so creative in terms of coming up with new technologies. [00:32:11] How many iPhones are there now? 15, 20 phones. We keep evolving and innovating all these other aspects of life, but yet we can't evolve or come up with a brand new economic system. I know. And it's for 25 or 30 years. The propaganda machine has been nailing. This point home that came out of the cold war, but socialism is bad. [00:32:36] Communism is bad. And basically Thai. Anyone who believes in climate change to, oh, you must be a socialist. They have this concept of the slippery slope to socialism and it's so scary. It's the fifth filter, the common enemy. Yeah. So they've been using that common enemy to discredit anybody who. [00:33:01] Understands climate science, because they know that the solution is anti-capitalist and they somehow think that any anticapitalist ideology is automatically what has come before. And I think with less is more what Jason Hickle is saying and what you and I are saying. Let's invent something new, given all of the knowledge that we have based on earth science on ecological economics. [00:33:30] Now we have a branch of ecological economics. We know a lot more about human behavior. We know that. Market practices do work and don't work. And what the results of implementing them are. We know more about what people want. We know more about what. The world better. We know so much more than Karl Marx did, or any of the scientists of the 18 hundreds or whatever, like the Smith who invented capitalism yeah. [00:34:01] To go back to as well. So we have the knowledge, we can take what's good from any of those theories and philosophies and ideas. And discard the parts that don't work. So we don't have to just slide back into something that people are for whatever reason, scared of, we can basically create a new economy the same way they did at the end of world war to create new rules. [00:34:28] That take into account. The reality that we've learned in the last several decades, we've learned so much about how the earth works. That is just not even baked into any of the policies surrounding our economy. And it's about time. Like several countries have been saying this since the 2008 financial crisis. [00:34:50] France came out and said, Hey, you guys, we need to have a new Bretton woods conference and redefine the economy. And it was just reading about it today. Someone else came out and said we need to do this. It really is just, we need to demand that a new economy be designed to be based on the wellbeing of people within the. [00:35:13] Now more well-known earth system of where we live, the reality of where we live. This is not very hard. It's complex, but we have all the information. We have so much more information than we have before. And so I think like it's just this weird insecurity, fear thing of ah, I don't want to I'm scared to try something new. [00:35:37] And as designers, when a system isn't working, like that's good news for us, that means that all of our skills come into play and we get to take all of these . Disparate pieces of information and start connecting them together and making something coherent out of it. And that's the kind of work that designers love to do. [00:36:01] So that's why climate designers exists. I think this is a time for people who have the skills and tools to. Visualize complex information and help people communicate connections between different fields. Designers don't have to be an expert in every single scientific field, but we know how to help all of those separate experts get connected in a cohesive plan. [00:36:32] That's what we do. Thank you for saying that. Cause I feel like I'm always the one saying that, [00:36:36] and I re-read the end of a Buckminster fuller is operating system for spaceship earth, the 1969. I think he was published that somewhere in the mid to late sixties. And that's the last thing he says is like the planners and the architects of the world need to get together. And take reality into consideration and put forth a new plan because the people running the boat right now, do not know what they're doing, not have the skills to make these plans. [00:37:10] And this has been very evident since the end of world war two and everything else that's happened. Like it has not lifted wellbeing except for a few people. Has not brought world peace case in point Afghanistan. And now we have ecological crisis to deal with it. Like they didn't even consider or know about back then. [00:37:31] So it's time for a redesign. There's so many things I wanted to say in the last couple of minutes, but you can find it, just like interrupt me. No, I, okay. I'll say one thing I don't know if you've seen the Netflix series explained, there are like 20 minute videos on a variety of topics. [00:37:47] And one of the latest ones that actually came out about a week or two ago is I think the title of it is the end of fossil fuels or something like that explained. And watching it. Two things. I don't think it went. Deep enough. I don't think it would. And this goes back to what we are talking about, there are people behind Netflix making those editorial decisions to determine how much is in this 20 minute piece and how much isn't. And that's the thing of what is not in that piece. And they did bring up the solutions towards the end. Of course. Like 92nd clip, compared to the 20 minutes that they have talking about the problem. [00:38:26] The other thing I wanted to bring up is, and this goes to some of the comments you just made. They had out of all people, they had a handful of people that they were interviewing out of all people. They had the former CEO of shell, I believe uh, Lord brown. I forgot his first name, Lord something. Like a title is his I think he was given it by the queen something. [00:38:45] Yeah. I don't know. I'm not at work, but um, here he is talking about, his latest thoughts and opinions currently, and I'm thinking, oh, why the fuck were you not thinking that when you're in the position of power, you knew what was going on. We all know. Bye now. And the, decades ago, these fossil fuel companies knew what they were doing. [00:39:06] It's no secret. So him being in a leadership position decades, even after that, he knew what was going on. And so it just really bugs me. And you saw this a lot with Trump appointees in the white house, they would quit and discussed or get fired and then write a book telling about all the secrets, say the shit now, say it in the moment. [00:39:23] You can save so many lives and, you know, put food on the table. I understand. Cause I also don't. Anyway, what I'm saying is there's when you say that there's smart people to come up with new economic systems and all these new things, I get it, but there's also people in positions of power that know that they need to do this, but they don't, they're unwilling to, so we can put together an, a team of people to come up with. [00:39:48] All these new solutions at a systemic level. But I think what we also need to focus on is at the same time, how do we get those people that are early already in those positions of power, out of. Position, so that those solutions that we do come up with can get implemented, can actually be implemented at scale. [00:40:09] And you see a lot of communal living places, you see a lot of small towns try and all these, like testing out all these different things, which is great. But we really need to amp that up. We really need to bring that to a scale. That's going to move the needle. And I feel like if we, I love the local level approach, don't get me wrong and we need to do that because as Sarah mentioned, we need to test things out, we're going to fucked up. [00:40:34] We're going to fail. We're going to probably make some mistakes. But if we do it at a smaller level, it has less of an impact to those fuck-ups. And then eventually we learn from those mistakes. And then, yeah, let's start to. Branch that out into other areas, other industries. But until we, until those people in power stay in power, it's going to be a lot harder fight to do that. [00:40:53] Yup. One of the really cool things that it says in this article about the ITCC can't predict how we fight back is they say we need to amplify the voices of the global. And act accordingly and they have a link here. It says at cop 26, climate vulnerable countries are demanding the delivery of climate finance, greater ambition from major emitters and a focus on loss and damage. [00:41:20] And if you click on that link, it goes to the climate vulnerable forum, which is something I didn't know existed, but it's it looks like it's a group. The climate vulnerable nations and their statement is very much questioning power. And it says it's not yet too late. Yeah. So there. They definitely have a lot more to say about what needs to be done and a lot more urgency to do that. And really, I don't think it's up to us to come up with new solutions so much as another thing that designers do is we amplify the voices of people, by creating campaigns, brands, visuals, videos posters, all of the above and. [00:42:05] Just going and looking at what some of these other countries who are more urgently facing the climate crisis, because they are just positioned a little bit differently on the globe and just amplify what they have to say, amplify what they are requesting. And I guess, the idea is if. The negotiators of these larger richer companies see that even their constituents are demanding these things, then it will help shift the power balance to these more vulnerable countries. [00:42:40] Yeah. I'm wondering, I'm going to, I'm going to make a really. I don't know if I even believe what I'm about to say, but the design community, there's a lot of designers and first world countries I don't know the statistics I'll look it up after this. At least in the U S AIG is the one of the largest design associations. [00:42:58] And they do a lot of these like census type things and there's probably data in there. So what I'm getting at is I'm wondering. How do we support those communicators as designers and those in third world countries? How do we support them to do this kind of work? So that we can avoid this idea of design imperialism of designers going in and with good intentions, of course. [00:43:23] Maybe not the best processes or how are ways to approach a community that they don't belong to. How do we actually support those that are actually in those communities? Yeah. Again, be humble and realize that you have biases too, even though you have good intentions, you don't necessarily know what you don't know. [00:43:43] And just a shameless plug. Another reason I bring this up is because I'm getting more and more excited about some of the new chapters that we're going to be onboarding in the next couple of weeks. We have a handful that some of them will call out specifically. We already have one in Latin America based in Brazil. [00:44:00] We have another one coming on board. Our second one in India, we have another one in Oh, it's on the tip of my tongue. I can't remember. Yeah. I don't think that's a, I wouldn't think that would be, but you have a few. Yeah. So I get excited when I see our community. Reach into these other countries. [00:44:21] And so like, how can we all learn from one another? How can we all learn and share resources so that we can uplift all of the designers within our community, every creative person within, so that they can do the work at that local level? Yeah. Or knows the media isn't going to help us find out. What's what they're saying, what they're demanding. [00:44:40] So we needed to talk to each other and we need to talk about climate.

This afternoon (9/14/21) we attempted to answer the questions we raised yesterday. Using a combination of our own minds and the sources provided by R' Qafih in his digest, we were able to arrive at a decent understanding of two ways to learn the Rambam. We had a nice tangential discussion about the tension between the notion that our sins are completely erased by teshuvah and the idea of "my sin is before me always." We ended off with a reexamination of the classic question, "What is teshuvah gemurah?" for which we came up with two closely related answers.----------מקורות:רמב"ם - משנה תורה, ספר המדע, הלכות תשובה ב:ב,ה (עם הערות הרב יוסף קאפח)תלמוד בבלי - יומא דף פו עמוד ב (עם פירוש רש"י והמאירי)רמב"ם - משנה תורה, ספר זמנים, הלכות תעניות ד:א-ב----------This week's Torah content has been sponsored by an anonymous donor in gratitude to the YBT community for being so welcoming to the new guys, and to the "old" guys. ----------Bekius Disclaimer: Note that this is a bekius chavurah - as opposed to an iyun shiur.

This afternoon (9/13/21) we took up the question: Which sins should a person publicize his teshuvah on and which sins should he keep private? After reviewing the Rambam on the basic mitzvah of vidui, and going over a few "side ideas," we learned Hilchos Teshuvah 2:5, raising all the major questions and starting to develop an approach. Tomorrow we'll attempt to answer all of our unanswered questions. ----------מקורות:רמב"ם - משנה תורה, ספר המדע, הלכות תשובה א:א; ב:הרמב"ם - משנה תורה, ספר קדושה, הלכות איסורי ביאה יט:יז כא:י,טו;----------This week's Torah content has been sponsored by an anonymous donor in gratitude to the YBT community for being so welcoming to the new guys, and to the "old" guys. ----------Bekius Disclaimer: Note that this is a bekius chavurah - as opposed to an iyun shiur.

Pirsumei Nisa seems like an integral part of the Mitzvah of Mikra Megillah. But what miracle or miracles are we publicizing?

Sermon by Rabbi Dan Ross, "Publicizing the Miracle of Vaccination" December 18, 2020

Maimonides call lighting the menorah a "dear and beloved" mitzvah, which is a rare term. The reason? Publicizing the miracle of Chanukah leads us to another important mitzvah. Find out which one in today's audio clip.

Who is the Jewish people's PR director? How do all of the mitzvos including the chukim and all of the ones that we do behind doors result in kiddush Hashem?

Kina and Shala are individuals. And sometimes individuals have wildly differing opinions. This is one of those times. In this week's episode, we examine the intersection of one's dating life and social media life. How much do you share online and when? Do you at all? Is posting one photo together really such a big deal (one of us thinks so)? Publicizing your relationship on social media has pros and cons, advantages and pitfalls, from the beginning stages right on through to the altar. One person's celebration of their love life is another person's trying too hard to prove a point. Some things you just can't take back when it hits that social media feed. In our segment 'Date or Dash' we consider what it would be like to go out with someone who likes to document every date moment for the 'gram. Which co-host do you side with this week? Drop us a line.

Cause marketing proves an effective marketing strategy for many retail and service organizations. Publicizing support for social justice campaigns and other non-profits can lead to increased brand loyalty as well as target like-minded consumers. Has your organization given thought to participating in cause marketing, and specifically, the effect cause marketing could have on employee engagement? In this episode of HR Power Hour, join Verrill Attorney Rob LaPlaca for a discussion on the history of cause marketing, what it is, how it works, as well as the considerations companies must keep at top of mind when determining whether cause marketing should be part of the organization's marketing strategy, and if so, whether there is a way to simultaneously increase employee engagement.

To order the new Living Emunah 5 please click here https://www.artscroll.com/ Books/9781422626078.html Rabbi Yitzchak Zilberstein told that he received a letter from a man who said that he had been suffering from terrible back pains for four years. He had a surgery done which eased the pain a little, but did not cure it. He still needed constant pain killers. And then, one day, all of a sudden he woke up and the pain was completely gone, Just like the Gemara said, Hashem says when the time of a sickness is up, then it leaves at that precise moment in its entirety. He and his wife say Nishmat daily, thanking Hashem for removing the pain. He ended the letter with a question, “Should I make a seudat hoda’ah(a meal to give thanks) and publicize Hashem’s chesed to me or should I be worried about the ayin hara(evil eye) ?” Rabbi Zilberstein answered, he should most definitely make a seudat hoda’ah , like it says in Tehillim ישלח דברו וירפאם" – after Hashem send His word and heals – ויזבחו זבח תודה וספרו מעשיו ברינה – a person should offer a korban and relate the miracles of Hashem.” The Korban todah had a shorter time to be eaten than other korbanot and it is accompanied by an enormous amount of bread – 40 loaves – which have to be consumed in just one day. The Ha’emek Davar explained the reason: Hashem wants the person bringing the korban to invite a lot of people to publicize the miracle that He performed for them. The Chavot Yair writes, a seuda made to publicize a miracle has a status of a seudat mitzvah and, therefore, the Rabbi said most definitely he should make a seudat hoda’ah . But then, Rabbi Zilberstein added, there are times that a miracle should not be publicized, at least not by name. And he gave an example of a man who once brought his young 13 year old son to him. The Rabbi said he noticed large scars on the right side of the boy’s face. The man explained, six months before, his son was in a car accident and had major damage to his head. The doctors in the emergency room said there was no hope for his survival. The man ran to the Gadol Hador , Rav Elyashiv, in tears and asked what could he do to save his son’s life? At that time, the boy had not yet begun putting on Tefillin , as he was still only 12. The Gadol advised, the father should buy a very high quality pair of Tefillin and put them on the boy’s head. He said, “Those Tefillin will need a head to be put on every day. That will give your son a zechut to be healed.” The father quickly followed the advice and he got Tefillin and put them on his son’s head in that emergency room. The medical staff was baffled, as the boy made a complete recovery. That man asked Rav Zilberstein, should he publicize that miracle or should he be scared of the ayin hara ? In that instance, the Rabbi told him not to publicize. Although, as he explained before, there is a concept of שיחו בכל נפלאותיו – to proclaim Hashem’s miracles, this case was an exception. He quoted a Gemara in Masechet Sanhedrin which asks, why don’t we hear about Chananel, Mishael and Azarya after they were miraculously saved from a fiery furnace? The Gemara answered, they passed away from the ayin hara . They were amidst flames and came out unscathed. Everyone looked at them in amazement all the time and it negatively affected them. Rabbi Zilberstien elaborated, an open miracle that has no explanation according to natural means is something that should be concealed from others. This boy was healed by putting on a pair of Tefillin. That was a supernatural occurrence. There was no medical logic whatsoever for him to be healed. Most miracles, however, that people experience can be explained in the natural way of the world and therefore should absolutely be publicized. Publicizing a miracle is a great avodat Hashem. The Zohar HaKadosh writes, it is incumbent upon people to speak about the wonders of Hashem and, when they do, the angels in Shamayim gather together to listen to his praises and they praise Hashem and, as a result, the Name of Hashem becomes glorified. May we all experience the yeshuot of Hashem all the time.

We all have our moments of complaining about our partners, but it seems more common to post a meme on social media that's a quick jab at something your partner does or doesn't do!  This isn't helpful and can potentially harm the relationship.

If you're selling digital products or services in 2020, I have good news for you. Most of you can bypass all the complex approaches to marketing and sales by adopting a personal brand strategy for your business. Every business needs a marketing and sales system of some kind in place. You can incorporate both into a personal brand strategy. The one approach can tick a lot of boxes!

Ayelet Noff (Blonde 2.0) and Joon Ian Wong (CoinDesk) discuss how the changing landscape has made the term ‘ICO’ unfavorable – instead, the focus is on the innovation of the company.

Innovation comes in many ways, forms and inspirations. Today we consider the basic use of communication as an innovation for compliance. We’re chatting with Ben Adelberg, host of The Back of the Range Golf Podcast, and today he’s sharing his processes, tips, and tricks for innovation and moving forward with whatever it is you’re working on. Ben’s approach: Ben interviews a wide variety of people, so before he ever gets on the phone with them, he does a deep dive. He goes through all of their social media channels, websites they might have been on, books they’ve written — anywhere that might have information on them — and finds out every single thing he can that could potentially lead him to different and unique questions to ask his guests. His goal is to go through the entire episode and ask questions they’ve never been asked, which makes The Back of the Range unique and stand out among all the other golf podcasts. Publicizing the podcast: Publishing a podcast episode is just half the job. It could be the most entertaining episode, but if nobody really knows about it, it’s just going to sit there. So for every episode, Ben promotes it to his Facebook page, Twitter, Instagram, and uploads every episode on YouTube. He takes a 30- to 60-second long snippet of the episode and transforms it into what’s called an audiogram: a static picture with audio over it. It goes onto all his social media channels with a link to the episode. He’ll also make sure to tag the person the episode is featuring and mention anybody else that might have been mentioned in the snippet, so it shows up on anyone following those feeds as well. This increases your reach and gets that 60-second clip in front of as many people as possible. Leveraging tools: In this business, you’re trying to capture people’s attention. A post that just says “click on this link” isn’t giving a big reason to listeners or followers to click on the link. Create a captivating photo or video, maybe something comical, or create a poll question on Twitter or a contest on Instagram. Just like anything in life you want to accomplish, you’ve got to put the work in. Showing value: Ben read Joe’s autobiography twice, did a deep dive on all his events, and fortunately loved baseball and golf, so he was extremely well-prepared for the episode. With every single guest, he tries to show value and his legitimacy right away by asking different probing questions that show he’s done his research. Once you do that, they respect the fact that you’ve done your work, and armed with that and a clean phone line, the episodes turn out well.

Publicizing Chanukah with Rabbi Asher Meza of TorahJudaism.com

The Advertising Division of G-d's Business The Torah (Shemot 31:17) describes Shabbat as an אות – a “sign” that Hashem created the world in six days and rested on the seventh: ביני ובין בני ישראל אות היא לעולם כי ששת ימים עשה ה' את השמיים ואת הארץ וביום השביעי שבת וינפש. “It [Shabbat] is forever a sign between me and the Children of Israel that G-d made heaven and earth in six days, and stopped and rested on the seventh day.” The Hafetz Haim famously explained the concept of Shabbat being a “sign” by way of an analogy to a shop. If the shop's front door is locked, but the sign bearing the store's name is still prominently displayed on the building, everyone knows that the store is still in business. Even if the owner or manager went on vacation for two weeks or a month, or if the facility is being renovated and is temporarily closed, as long as the sign is displayed, people know that the business has not closed down, and that it will, sooner or later, resume its operations. Similarly, the Hafetz Haim explained, Shabbat is the “sign” announcing that the “business” of Judaism is still open. Even if occasionally we “close,” and we fail to act as we should, as long as we observe Shabbat, we are still “open for business,” we are still devoted to Torah despite the temporary lapse. This analogy has profound implications. Businesses pay for large, elaborate signs in order to catch people's attention and advertise themselves. If, as the Hafetz Haim teaches, Shabbat is the “sign” of our “business,” then this must mean that Shabbat is the way we “advertise” Hashem. This is how we publicize the basic fundamentals of Jewish faith – that Hashem created and governs the world. Each week, when Shabbat begins, we work in the advertising division of G-d's business, spreading the word that He is our Creator and King. Advertising is a multibillion dollar industry. Google earns billions providing a search engine and countless other free features solely by having companies advertising their products and services on its pages. Waze, the internationally renowned navigation app, is profitable because businesses pay it to show their advertisements to people driving nearby. Newspapers make money not from subscriptions, but from advertisers. Businesses pay to have their ads placed in elevators and on top of taxicabs. People pay huge sums of money for advertising because, quite simply, it works. Publicizing one's product or service is an effective way of attracting customers. And this is why G-d promises us such great rewards for observing Shabbat – because through our observance we “advertise” His “business.” There are number of things we can learn and understand about Shabbat based on this perspective. First, one of the rules of advertising is that the clearer and more direct the message is, the greater an impact it will have. While some companies may occasionally run a temporary vague advertising campaign to build anticipation (“It's coming soon…”), as a general rule, companies want to send a clear, explicit message of what they are offering consumers. This is why we begin Shabbat with the recitation of Kiddush , in which we state very clearly and succinctly what it is we are advertising – that G-d is the Creator of the world. Right from the start, we send a clear and direct message. Other insights into the “advertising” value of Shabbat can be gleaned from a conversation I once had with a Shabbat guest many years ago, a ba'al teshuva who worked in advertising. I asked him why Coca Cola continues to shell out money for advertising, when everybody knows about and is very familiar with the company. He explained that Coca Cola continues to advertise for three reasons. First, people's minds are feeble, and are prone to forgetting. If Coca Cola did not continue to advertise, then no matter how famous it is now, it would gradually fade from people's consciousness. Secondly, there is stiff competition. Pepsi is continuing to advertise, and so Coca Cola needs to continue, as well, in order to keep up and not lose ground in the perennial battle for consumers. Finally, the market is always shifting. Today's young children are tomorrow's consumers, and so large, famous companies must continue to advertise to attract the new potential consumers. It occurred to me that all three factors are directly and profoundly relevant to the “advertising” role of Shabbat. First, we are forgetful, and we therefore need regular reminders about Hashem. We wear tzitzit all day as a reminder, and we likewise observe Shabbat each week to ensure that G-d's control and authority over the world remains at the forefront of our consciousness. Secondly, there is, unfortunately, a great deal of “competition.” Society bombards us with the very opposite message, the message of unbridled indulgence and permissiveness as the means of enjoying a happy life. We need to counteract this dangerous message with the timeless, true message about Hashem and the kind of life He wants us to live. Thirdly, even if we are keenly aware of Hashem, we need to convey this message to our children, as the “market” is constantly shifting and the message therefore needs to be regularly repeated and reinforced. Two stories are told about Rav Baruch Ber Leibowitz, the famous Rosh Yeshivah of Kaminetz, that underscore the power of the message that is sent through Shabbat observance. Rav Baruch Ber once visited the United States to raise money for his yeshiva. The trip took place in the 1930s, at a time when Jewish immigrants faced enormous pressure to work on Shabbat, and many of those who heroically refused to compromise Shabbat observance suffered poverty and hardship. At one point during his trip, Rav Baruch Ber passed by a Jewish-owned store on Shabbat and noticed that the door was locked. He went over to the lock and kissed it. He exclaimed, “O holy lock! You proclaim that Hashem is our G-d and we are His servants!” On another occasion, when a Jewish immigrant told the Rabbi that he had decided to close his store on Shabbat, Rav Baruch Ber told him, “Go put your ear to the lock. You will hear it shouting, ה' הוא האלוקים – ‘Hashem is G-d!'” Those Jews who passed this test and made enormous financial sacrifices for the sake of Shabbat observance made a resounding proclamation that nothing in the world is greater than Hashem. This was the most effective advertisement possible. This is the opportunity we are given each and every week – to serve as G-d's personal advertising agents. There are an unlimited number of ideas that marketing experts can devise to broadcast their message. We don't necessarily need to resort to bumper stickers or billboards, but we can think of ways to enhance our Shabbat observance in order to “advertise” Hashem more effectively. But in truth, the mere observance of Shabbat itself sends a very strong message. This can be achieved simply by the sight of a family walking to or from the synagogue on Shabbat on a hot summer day dressed in suits and ties. They are not going to a wedding or banquet, but simply celebrating G-d's special day, and this already powerfully conveys the message of G-d's mastery over the world. Our Shabbat clothes loudly proclaim, ה' הוא האלוקים . As mentioned, advertising is a very lucrative industry. We are promised great rewards for accepting this vital role and “advertising” Hashem through our Shabbat observance. And the clearer and more beautiful the “signs” that we create through the enhancement of Shabbat, the more effective our “advertisement” will be, and the more we will be rewarded.
