Welcome to The Pure Athlete Call-In Show, where we have REAL CONVERSATIONS with REAL PARENTS & COACHES about REAL SITUATIONS and CHALLENGES.On this episode, Jeff Francoeur, Britt Lee, and Brad Williams take calls from parents and coaches navigating some of the hardest moments in youth sports:Chris in Atlanta — How do you grow into coaching a sport you barely know when your kid (or the program) needs you?Libby in Chicago — Her 7th grader made the tennis team. Her 6th grader, one year younger and at the same school, did not. How do you celebrate one daughter without constantly reminding the other that she got cut?Casey in Spokane — His 9-year-old is a “stud” in practice but freezes at the plate, overthinks every cue, and treats a strikeout like the end of the world.Chris in Newark — After years in the dugout, he's now in the stands and can't believe what some parents are saying. What's his role now—and when should a former coach speak up?Mark in Denver — After a couple of errors, a travel-ball coach berated his 13-year-old in front of the team. His son wants to quit. How do you talk to your kid—and how do you approach the coach?Jeff, Britt, and Brad share honest perspectives and advice from their own experiences as parents, coaches, and former athletes.If you want to talk to the guys on a future call-in episode, go to pureathlete.com/call and submit your story, or send a DM on any of our social platforms.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement has stopped publicly sharing location information for thousands of detainees. Three current and former ICE officials told The Associated Press that on Sept. 15 the agency removed from its website the location information for detainees subject to final deportation orders. In a statement, ICE did not confirm or deny the change.Bipartisan negotiations continue on a federal proposal to establish guardrails for artificial intelligence. Official estimates suggest nationwide corn yields will decline this year. Some experts say actual yields could be even lower because of drought conditions.

Zimbabwean businessman Lawrence Mudzinganyama has been arrested and released on a warning following a viral video showing him threatening to murder women at a Sandton restaurant. The incident has drawn fierce condemnation from Acting Police Minister Firoz Cachalia, who has ordered Home Affairs to investigate Mudzinganyama's residency status. In the same breath, Transport Minister Barbara Creecy has launched an immediate investigation into his company's lucrative SANRAL tenders. Mudzinganyama has issued a public apology and is scheduled to appear in the Randburg Magistrate's Court in October. For reaction we spoke to Her Royal Highness Princess Eurika Mogane, National Commissioner for the Commission for Gender Equality.

A retrial means Patrick Clancy sits through all of it again. The 911 audio. The expert testimony describing how Cora, Dawson, and Callan died. The clinical dissection of his wife's psychiatric collapse. Seven weeks of testimony replayed for a new jury while the 11-to-1 split from the first trial hangs over the entire proceeding.Defense attorney Bob Motta joins the show to examine the human cost the legal maneuvering obscures. Lindsay Clancy is reportedly paralyzed at Tewksbury State Hospital on suicide watch with severe ongoing psychiatric illness. Motta walks through the practical reality of what a conviction changes — whether the difference between a secure psychiatric facility and a prison sentence justifies the toll of a second trial on everyone involved.Motta digs into Dr. Phillip Resnick's trial testimony on altruistic filicide — the clinical framework for understanding how a mother experiencing psychosis could believe she was protecting her children. Eleven jurors reportedly heard that evidence and accepted it. The legal system has no adequate mechanism for cases built on this kind of psychiatric evidence. The first-degree murder framework forces binary choices — guilty or not guilty — in a case where the medical reality doesn't fit either box cleanly.The question reaches beyond this family. Mothers across the country followed this trial because they reportedly recognized their own postpartum experiences in Lindsay Clancy's story. What the state does next sends a message about how the system treats women who suffer the most extreme documented forms of maternal psychiatric crisis — and whether continued prosecution serves justice or a prosecutor's conviction record.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Ransomware has changed dramatically over the years. What started as criminals locking up individual computers and demanding relatively small payments has grown into a much larger operation involving stolen data, entire networks, third-party vendors, and increasingly sophisticated ways of pressuring victims to pay. Now AI is adding another wrinkle, giving criminals new tools while also creating some unexpected problems for them. Joining me to talk about how ransomware has evolved is Allan Liska, a ransomware researcher and Field CISO at Recorded Future. Allan has more than 30 years of experience in information security and has spent the last 12 years researching ransomware. He has advised major corporations and government agencies, served on national ransomware task forces, and written extensively about ransomware and threat intelligence. We talk about how ransomware became the business it is today, why small businesses can be just as vulnerable as larger organizations, and how attackers are increasingly going after trusted vendors instead of their intended targets directly. We also discuss what happens inside an organization after an attack, why disrupting ransomware groups really can make a difference, how AI is being used by criminals, and some of the mistakes ransomware operators make that ultimately work against them. Show Notes: [01:06] Allan Liska introduces himself and shares how his work at FireEye led him to begin researching ransomware more than a decade ago. [03:10] Growing ransomware problems pushed Allan and other researchers to begin developing better detections for attacks that many security teams were overlooking. [05:22] Ransomware evolved from attacks on individual computers to taking down entire networks and later stealing data to pressure victims into paying. [06:30] Publicly naming victims gave ransomware groups their own form of publicity and made it much harder for organizations to quietly deny an attack. [08:05] Encryption creates technical challenges for criminals, and stealing valuable data can sometimes be just as effective as encrypting an organization's systems. [09:28] Attackers increasingly target vendors and partners, while some groups are now using AI to create fake stolen data and falsely claim organizations as victims. [13:05] Chris and Allan discuss how transparency and regular communication can help organizations manage public trust after a security incident. [14:35] Ransomware response can quickly lead to employee burnout, making outside coordination and basic needs like sleep, food, and scheduling an important part of incident management. [16:14] A major breach may temporarily open security budgets, so organizations should already know which improvements they would prioritize after an incident. [23:29] International law enforcement agencies have become increasingly creative about tracking ransomware operators and waiting for them to make mistakes. [25:48] Being skilled at hacking does not necessarily mean criminals are equally skilled at protecting their identities or activities from intelligence agencies. [28:21] Ransomware groups frequently make technical and strategic mistakes, including faulty AI-generated tools, reused encryption keys, and stealing data nobody considers valuable. [29:36] Fewer ransomware victims are paying, but average payments are increasing, and ransomware remains profitable enough to attract new threat actors. [33:09] Allan explains why simply banning ransom payments may not work and discusses approaches that could give governments better intelligence about where payments go. [39:33] Collaboration remains an important part of ransomware research, and Allan encourages people entering the field to learn from other researchers and security communities.

Hey teacher besties, it's just me and Gerry this week since Molly's out, and we're covering a lot of ground. I got a review on my book that called out my millennial "hey besties" energy, which, fair. I also just got back from Boston, where I learned Paul Revere never actually said "the British are coming" and apparently moonlighted as a dentist between silversmithing gigs, which honestly explains a lot about colonial-era medicine. We also had to address the elephant in the room: the shirtless pooping clip has become one of our best performing clips ever, which came with its fair share of internet chaos, including someone genuinely threatening Gerry over using a handicap bathroom. Then we get into some real teacher talk: side hustles we've actually done (technical writing, Uber driving, coaching, etc), and how my retired coworker came back to help co-teach my new class, which honestly saved me. We also get into a good debate about AI in the classroom and whether districts should be blocking Teachers Pay Teachers, and Gerry makes a point I hadn't fully considered about how getting mad at AI online just feeds the algorithm more.  Takeaways: When a more experienced teacher offers help or shares resources with you, take it. Teachers often have side hustles like tutoring, coaching, freelance writing, or selling resources on Teachers Pay Teachers. Some districts block sites like Teachers Pay Teachers for legitimate cybersecurity reasons, which is valid, but I maintain that they shouldn't ban it just to restrict teacher resources. Teachers should be trusted as professionals to choose which resources, including AI tools, work best for their own classrooms. Publicly engaging with AI content you dislike, even to criticize it, can actually cause algorithms to push more of that content out. -- Knoword is an online tool for creating fun vocabulary games.

On this episode of Stick to Wrestling, 98.5 The Sports Hub's James “Jimmy” Stewart breaks down a wild week in WWE — starting with Friday's SmackDown from Mexico City, where Sami Zayn dethroned CM Punk in a chaotic Undisputed WWE Championship main event. Johnny Gargano, Candice LeRae, and Kevin Owens all got involved. The finish was messy. The title changed hands. And Zayn is a two-time champion after a nine-day first reign that he has not let anyone forget.Then the focus shifts to Monday's Raw, also from Mexico City, where Roman Reigns defends the World Heavyweight Championship against Penta. The Mexican Destroyer vs. The OTC. A hometown-style crowd. A title match WWE has been building for weeks through a luchador tournament. Stewart unpacks whether this is a showcase or a real threat to Reigns' reign.Plus: the backstage layer. WWE President Nick Khan just called Triple H the best creative mind in all of wrestling and said the company cannot live and die by social media. Publicly, it's a united front. Privately, the question hanging over Stamford is whether business priorities and creative vision are always pulling in the same direction — and what that means for title pictures that keep flipping, talent getting squeezed into big-city specials, and who actually has the last word when a finish goes off the rails.Hot takes. Boston energy. No kayfabe required.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In the year 2000, Lance Wallnau picked up the phone to prep for an interview with a U.S. senator who had been clinically dead for nearly 30 minutes. The voice on the other end told him a story about seven islands rising in heaven — a story that would become the Seven Mountains Mandate. Years later, when Lance called the woman back to confirm the details, she said five words that changed everything: "I never told you that." So who — or what — was actually on the other end of that call? Prophetic voice Lance Wallnau opens up about the moment he believes he was speaking not to a human, but to an angel — and the chain of supernatural events that birthed the Seven Mountains revelation now reshaping the global Church. What if the message reshaping the Body of Christ was confirmed by heaven itself? ----------------------------------- ► Subscribe to stay updated on breaking news, prophetic insight, and conservative commentary:

For the second time, Marc Hildebrand flips the format and puts Larry in the interview seat, this time to unpack the five things men consistently say changed everything after joining the Dad Edge Business Boardroom Brotherhood: clarity, challenge, strategy, accountability, and brotherhood. Using real, anonymized member stories, Larry walks through how the group helps a business owner named Taylor rebuild connection with his wife using the four pillars of marriage and three levels of listening, why "rusty relationships" built on enabling friends keep 78% of men stuck, and why vague goals like "more communication" aren't actually strategies. Larry also shares the origin story of the group's gamified accountability system, born on a cruise ship when he realized he hated holding people accountable the traditional way, and closes with a blunt challenge: most men wait for a crisis before they get help, and by then it's often too late. If you're a business owner who feels like your family gets the leftovers of your time and energy, this conversation is a direct look at what actually changes that.   Timeline Summary [1:02] Larry opens on the tension every entrepreneur feels: building an empire without sacrificing family [4:21] Introducing Marc Hildebrand as this week's interviewer, flipping the usual format [6:42] The first pillar: clarity, and the story of onboarding a new member named Taylor [7:45] Introducing the Brave Man system: bond, raise, amplify, vitality, enjoy, movement, action, network [9:47] The comparison trap and the real divorce and disconnection statistics behind most marriages [10:28] The four pillars of an extraordinary marriage: individual, partnership, friendship, and lovers [13:20] Giving Taylor the 50 Intimate Conversation Starters and a simple daily walk-and-talk challenge [15:13] The three levels of listening: to respond, to understand, and to hear the emotion underneath [20:43] Larry announces a rare open preview of the Dad Edge Business Boardroom Brotherhood [22:29] Why the same relational skills that fix a marriage also apply to clients and employees [26:35] The second pillar: challenge, and the difference between friends and objective advisors [27:22] Introducing "rusty relationships" and the 78% statistic from Mansfield's Book of Manly Men [30:08] The story of a member named Tim who left his gym to stop being the smartest guy in the room [33:38] The third pillar: strategy, and why "more" or "better" communication isn't actually a strategy [35:25] The Casey 1.0 and 2.0 example: moving from scarcity and fear to strategic thinking [38:20] The story of a member named Blake, whose time management problem was really about protecting family time [40:03] Larry announces the first-ever Dad Edge Day with the Arizona Cardinals, November 15th [42:49] The fourth pillar: accountability, and the cruise ship story behind gamifying it [45:29] Introducing "the tent," the virtual system where members plan and track weekly missions [47:20] The story of a member named Jayden whose recurring unfinished mission revealed a deeper marriage issue [48:51] The fifth pillar: brotherhood, and why shame dies in safe conversations [54:30] Larry's closing challenge: most men wait for a crisis, and by then it's often too late   Five Key Takeaways Real clarity often comes from realizing your problem isn't what you think it is. A man convinced his issue is "not enough communication" usually discovers, through the right questions, that the real issue is which questions he's asking and how he's listening. The four pillars of an extraordinary marriage, individual, partnership, friendship, and lovers, break down when couples get stuck managing logistics (partnership) and skip friendship entirely, which makes physical connection feel confusing or absent. A friend who only agrees with your complaints isn't helping you, he's enabling you. An objective advisor without emotional stake in your friendship will challenge you in ways a lifelong buddy often won't. Vague goals like "more communication" or "better connection" aren't strategies, they're wishes. Real change comes from identifying specific, concrete actions, the same way a health goal requires a specific plan, not just an instruction to "get healthier." Accountability works best when it's gamified rather than shame-based. Publicly tracked weekly goals, done with humor and healthy competition, produce more consistent follow-through than accountability rooted in guilt.   Links & Resources The Dad Edge Business Boardroom Brotherhood Preview: https://thedadedge.com/guest Roommates to Soulmates: http://thedadedge.com/soulmates The Pursuit of Legendary Fatherhood by Larry Hagner: https://thedadedge.com The Dad Edge Podcast: http://thedadedge.com/1531  Mansfield's Book of Manly Men by Stephen Mansfield The Miracle Morning for Couples by Hal Elrod, Lance Salazar, and Brandy Salazar   Closing If there's one thing Larry wants every business owner dad to hear from this episode, it's this: don't wait for a crisis. He read an email that same day from a man who waited seven years to address a marriage on the brink of collapse, and now he's scrambling. Clarity, challenge, strategy, accountability, and brotherhood aren't things you need once things fall apart, they're things you build before they do. Go out and live legendary.  

The Carrizo/Comecrudo Tribe of Texas and its leader Juan Mancias have established themselves as leaders in environmental causes including the DAPL pipeline protests and another oil and gas pipeline in Texas. Mancias is recognized by the U.N. and has worked hand-in-hand with several established environmental organizations. Along the way, the tribe has brought in more than $5 million in philanthropic and other funds. But an investigation by the online outlet Grist finds the tribe's status, including what its leaders point to as founding documents are suspect. Publicly available geneological documents contradict Mancias' own tribal lineage claims. Along the way, Grist exposes a flawed system in which funders and government entities eager to support Indigenous organizers have no way to adequately discern between legitimate tribes and those with questionable origins. We'll find out about the growth of the Carrizo/Comecrudo Tribe and some of the concerns that have surfaced. GUESTS Tristan Ahtone (Kiowa), editor-at-large for Grist Dr. Kyle Whyte (Citizen Potawatomi Nation), professor at the School for Environment and Sustainability at the University of Michigan Andrea Carmen (Yaqui), executive director of the International Indian Treaty Council Dr. Kim Tallbear (Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate), professor of American Indian Studies at the University of Minnesota Break 1 Music: Sewa Ania (song) Gabriel Ayala (artist) Shades of Blue (album) Break 2 Music: With My Son (song) Vincent Craig (artist)

How long can you hold your bladder? If you're out and about in Edmonton, you might find out the hard way if you're caught without a public washroom nearby. Publicly accessible toilets are a big part of urban planning, but they can be challenging to implement.

The decision of how much to share about a loved one's illness publicly or even with family is a personal one that can have both positive and negative outcomes. The situation can be even more complex when the caregiver and the person being cared for have differing opinions on the matter. In this episode, Allison and Jenna dig into these nuances and share how they have handled this in their own caregiving lives. --- Join us for an online support group related to this episode on Wednesday, September 9, from 6:00-7:15pm CT.

The Justice Yashwant Varma case has renewed calls for greater transparency in the judiciary, including demands for mandatory public disclosure of judges' assets. However, does knowing a judge's wealth upon entering office actually reveal anything about their integrity? The video explores alternatives such as monitoring financial flows, identifying conflicts of interest and creating independent oversight mechanisms while protecting judicial independence and privacy.

Mickie Kennedy - eReleases On Good PR: "Every time you're getting ready to issue a press release that you feel is meaningful to you, think about how can I make it meaningful for that audience person, making them want to read it, make it easier for a journalist to say, yeah, I think my audience would love to hear that." When a woman starts a business and/ or becomes successful, often she does this with pain that has been quelling in her for years.  As an entrepreneur, we push through pain, but eventually it may be time to address Advertising is expensive and doesn't always move the needle.  Marketing as a whole has many options, and PR is one of them.  You see, sharing a press release is taking the steps to get your business out of the paid world of eyeballs and into the world of eyeballs that pay to see you.  That is a much better place to be. But how do you get in the news?  What are the rules of the game for writing and sending these press releases, and who do you send them to? Mickie Kennedy has eReleases, a press release company that caters to the small business that wants to grow, knows the value of press releases, yet has no idea where to start and certainly doesn't have the connections in the journalism world to Enjoy!

We work with authors, used to be mostly self-published authors, but over the past, I would say, 12 to 14 years, we work with a lot of traditionally published authors as well. You know, everything under the sun. We work with a lot of people who appear on Shark Tank, people doing side businesses, hoping that it'll turn into something. Everybody's out there trying to get a little attention and find a way in which they can make press releases work for them. James Kademan [00:00:25]: What is a press release? A press release? Mickie Kennedy [00:00:27]: Basically, it's an announcement to the media. I always tell people, if you are looking to work for— with a PR firm, you want to make sure that you choose one that is in your industry. The biggest mistake that I see and the most amount of money that I've seen people waste is working with a local PR firm thinking that that was the way to go when they should have chosen a PR firm that focused on their industry.

And today we're welcoming slash preparing to learn from Mickey Kennedy of eReleases. Mickey, how is it going today? Mickie Kennedy [00:01:23]: Good, good. James Kademan [00:01:25]: Excellent. And tell me, we're talking about press releases for businesses, is that right? Mickie Kennedy [00:01:31]: That's correct, yes. James Kademan [00:01:32]: All right, tell me a story. What is eReleases? Mickie Kennedy [00:01:36]: So, uh, we are a press release distribution company. We send releases out over PR Newswire, which is the oldest and national press release newswire here in the United States. It's basically a duopoly, PR Newswire, then Business Wire. And we have been in business since 1998. We send out about a little over 10,000 press releases a year, giving mostly small businesses, entrepreneurs, startups access to the Wire at a huge discount because the Wire charges about $2,000 for a national press release going out of 600 words or so. And with us, it's about a third of that price. Wow. James Kademan [00:02:17]: All right. And how— tell me about the discount. How were you able to pull that off? Mickie Kennedy [00:02:23]: Because when they reached out to us years ago, they were really trying to promote like a city distribution. And I'm like, well, my clients are really looking for national media attention. And we kept communicating and I went and met their editorial team. And the one thing I noticed is They have an editorial team overnight, but they don't do much, they said. They said, we have to be there in case there's breaking news or, you know, something happens. And I was just like, well, what if I set up all my press releases for next business day so you could set them up overnight? Wouldn't cost you any additional labor. And they also looked at my customer profile, which is really small businesses, mostly people whose budgets are $2,000 or $3,000 a year. their salespeople would not reach out or want to recruit any customers like that. Mickie Kennedy [00:03:13]: They're going for Fortune 500 companies. They're looking for people who are spending $20,000 to $40,000 a year. So in that way, it was just found money for them. And doing 10,000+ releases a year, it's still a significant amount of money that we're sending them, but it is a huge discount. And, you know, some of our customers do graduate and become much larger, and then we just introduce them directly to PR Newswire and they can work directly with them. James Kademan [00:03:40]: Sure. I suppose if the PR actually works the way a business owner wants it to work, then we hope they graduate up. Mickie Kennedy [00:03:46]: Yeah, absolutely. James Kademan [00:03:48]: Right on. Is there a certain vertical of industry that you typically work with? Mickie Kennedy [00:03:52]: We work with all different types of verticals. We work with authors, used to be mostly self-published authors, but over the past, I would say, 12 to 14 years, we work with a lot of traditionally published authors as well. Seems like the publishers aren't doing marketing anymore, even for established presses and publishers that you've heard of. And so, you know, everything under the sun. We work with a lot of people who appear on Shark Tank. The producers recommend that they do a press release before their episode airs, and we get mentioned quite a bit as a good place for them to send their releases. And so, you know, I think that everything under the sun is who we work with. You know, people doing side businesses, hoping that it'll turn into something. Mickie Kennedy [00:04:39]: You know, people who have small businesses that might have 20 or 30 employees. Employees or even more mid-sized companies moving from there. But I would say it's a pretty mix across all different types of industries. We see everything from technology to, like, you know, waste management to, you know, really, you know, a local carpet company in New Jersey. So everybody's out there trying to, you know, get a little attention and find a way in which they can make press releases work for them. James Kademan [00:05:09]: Sure. How do people end up— or business owners, I should say— how do they end up finding you? Mickie Kennedy [00:05:15]: So a lot of it is either word of mouth or they're doing searches. And, you know, they'll come across us as maybe a blog post that we've written. We've been in business for a long time, so we have over 1,000 articles out there. We also advertise on Google and some other places. But I think You know, I would say probably half of all new customers are just direct referrals. And so someone has suggested they give us a try and, you know, they reach out to us. It's more consultative because a lot of people don't know how it works. So they'll either call and speak to one of our editors or chat or email with us. Mickie Kennedy [00:05:56]: And we walk people through their first press release and their first PR campaign on a a weekly basis. James Kademan [00:06:03]: Sure. Let's lay down the foundation of press releases just so that people understand. What is a press release? Mickie Kennedy [00:06:10]: Basically, it's an announcement to the media. It's usually written in the third person. If you're writing in the first person, it's usually a quote, a company quote, or someone being quoted in, in the press release. They're generally— you've probably seen they say for immediate release at the top. They might have a dateline with the city, state, and the date of distribution. And there's usually a media contact towards the bottom, someone that the media could contact if they have more questions or if they need something a little more specific, like, hey, I really like this, but I'd like to get a quote around this topic, you know, and do you feel like that would be a good fit? So, you know, that's what it is. It's a lot of these just go out on a regular basis. Publicly traded companies have to issue these types of things just to keep their public informed about it so that investors don't feel like they're, you know, something happens that's significant and they weren't notified or given some kind of,...

This is a deep, introspective side of Malachi like you’ve never heard before. Today, he opens up about adjusting to living a very public life and the attention that comes along with that, what his relationship is like with social media, how Zombies 4 changed his life, how Zombies 4 made him realize how much he loves singing and dancing, if he ever wants to be on Dancing with the Stars, the message of Zombies 4 that he personally related to the most, the powerful advice that Milo Manheim and Meg Donnelly gave him that he’ll never forget, what that Zombies group chat is really like, what all those different Zombies alternate endings are, if he was ever supposed to play Red’s brother in the Descendants franchise (a big online rumor answered), what his future dream projects are, his biggest celebrity crush (ahem Outer Banks), how he has handled his journey with anxiety, and so much more.

Darrell Castle endeavors to explain why he thinks debt is the worst, most unsolvable problem we face as everything we call a standard of living hangs in the balance. Transcription / Notes DEBT—WHY IT'S SO IMPORTANT Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. Last week I mentioned that debt is the worst problem we face as a nation and I got some comments so this week I will endeavor to explain why I think debt is the worst, most unsolvable problem that we face and why I think that because of debt everything we have and everything we call a standard of living hangs in the balance. Sometimes we forget that in the 1990's the federal government had a balanced budget, When Bill Clinton was president the federal government lived within its means but today it is $40 trillion in debt. So, what, many people say, because it doesn't seem to affect them and after all they live in a nice home for which they have a 30-year mortgage. In the Clinton years the average age of first-time home buyers was in the 20's but now it's about 40. George w. Bush came along and decided we would be required to fight some of Israel's enemies for then and so the debt started its out of control climb to the $40 trillion that it is today. Three fourths of the increase has been added since Obama took office and about $11 trillion or 28% since Trump took office.. In other words, it is accelerating because the U.S. has no way to fund it without borrowing more, a practice known as monetizing the debt or using more debt to pay debt otherwise known as a debt spiral. So, the problem in the private economy is inflation which is why gas was $1.25 in the 90's and is about $4.00 in most places today. Inflation is caused by excessive money printing and excessive money in circulation which devalues all the money you make. If you make $85 thousand per year and do not get a raise for 10 years and there is no inflation you have not lost anything. When inflation doubles the price of necessities during that period you have lost a lot. People are starting to realize all that and it is causing some disturbing reactions especially among young people. They see the system as being gamed against them because some people are rich and they are not. No matter what they make they seem to barely get by, especially in New York, so when a charismatic leader comes along and says I will take from those bad rich people and give it to you they bite. They see the capitalistic system as bad and evil because they have not gotten theirs from it but that is exactly the wrong reaction. The system is broken but not because of a failure of design. It is broken because it has been perverted by a tiny group of globalist ruling elite who are not stupid. They see the entire system failing and on the brink of popping the bubble that props it up and they do not react by trying to fix it and restore soundness. No, the ever more feeble state doesn't pull back and lick its wounds to heal. Instead, it becomes a predator extracting every last dollar from the system that it can. The entire post-war European model of a social state is no longer working, but the state and its ruling elite just keep looting and I suppose they hope we don't notice. The system works like the old quote from George Carlin that we are all familiar with. “See, folks it's a big club and you ain't in it.” Well, I heard some former insider the other day say that George's quote was spot on except today it should be amended to say that it's a small club and you ain't in it. A very small group of people run the world this man was saying and they see what is happening and it terrifies them. They know the debt will never be dealt with and will never be paid. They don't think the deficit will ever again be reduced to zero so they see the only hope as total control through surveillance of every person on the planet. This is accomplished through the widespread use of flock cameras among many other things. The newspaper reports that there are over 1000 flock cameras in my city of Memphis. Total surveillance allows those in control to monitor us and act if we get too uppity. Central bank digital currency will be the primary method of dealing with all the debt the U.S. carries and with the growing dissatisfaction of people with consumer debt they can't live without. The ruling elite first make debt slaves of us all and finally they start to sense chaos and perhaps revolution in the air and they have to do something. Publicly they have their bread and circus to pacify us but privately they have other methods. The people continue to elect what turns out to be the worst people in the country. The state has lost its fear of you or what you think about what it is doing. Let me give you an example by going back to the beginning. The founders designed a system whereby it took the will of the majority of the people's representatives sitting in Congress to send the nation to war. The president had to go the congress and request permission to go to war and the people through their elected representatives had to agree. That was because war had to be paid for and that would require taxes which would affect everyone. What a quaint idea, but it might also require sending their sons to possible death so it was a serious matter. Even as late in history as George W. Bush's war on Iraq if you remember he and Dick Chaney kept us in suspense for many months before the war so they could build a consensus of the people and the media to support the war. It worked because most people supported the war because of 911 etc. We could not imagine it was all just a set up and part of the plan. Now we are so numb we just don't care anymore. The president sees poll after poll that shows his war on Iran to be the most unpopular in history but he doesn't seem to care.  Going to congress or what the Constitution says means nothing nor does the oath of office. Now they don't seem to care what the people think and they don't even bother to convince us. They seem to know that this reckless waste of money is creating more and more resentment and a breaking point is rapidly approaching. Mr. Jefferson told us in the Declaration that rights come from the creator and they are inalienable. To secure those rights governments are instituted among men. In other words, the purpose of government is to secure our rights not to abuse them. He went on to say that when government becomes destructive of those ends it is the right of the people to abolish it. I submit to you that after many years of governments destructive of those ends the people are growing ever more weary and the tiny group of elites at the top can clearly see that and they are taking steps to make sure it never happens. What are some of those steps, well I'm glad you asked. Constant surveillance of every person on earth. Flock cameras everywhere and now even our cars report back on our behavior. Debasement of the currency to the point that central bank digital currency is obviously necessary and with it is the end of privacy, even the limited version of it we have today. Soon there will be constant monitoring of everything you say and write in the public domain. Constant, never ending, pointless, bloody wars, that are so stupid blind people can see them for what they are. Abandonment of the moral center of the country to the point that bedrock faith is just a ruse to appease a few right wingers. Demeaning of the culture at every level with the foulest words used constantly by those in high places. Those are just a few of the things already coming or on their way. To make all this work and save the elite a very small population of cooperative people is all that is necessary and AI will do the work. The population must be reduced to accommodate the sick dreams of these satanic madmen. Since AI is going to destroy the low and middle class well, I guess we don't need as many of them complaining. There are many ways to kill us but the first way that should be obvious to anyone is biowarfare. COVID was and is the best example. The virus, thanks to the science, and his cohorts was engineered to kill in mass numbers but it didn't so the Vaccine had to be invented to do its work. Destroy the reproductive systems of young women and cause miscarriages in those who are pregnant. I've read from Dr. Naomi Wolfe and her work that about 80% pf pregnant women who were injected with the mNRA vaccine miscarried. Dr. Fauci's top assistant just pled guilty to covering up information about gain of function work on the virus. Pfizer admits through 10's of thousands of pages of documents that it intentionally attacked the reproductive systems of women. In fact, one might say that Marx was right or at least on to something when he described religion as the opiate of the masses. What he might notice today is that opium and its directives are the opiate of the masses. The country has been flooded with drugs since Vietnam days and the more war we make against it the worse it gets. The illegal drugs are only a welcome part of the cocktail that our overlords feed us. Well meaning doctors do the only thing the system allows them in the 15 minutes every 6 months they are allowed to see us and that is prescribe big pharma cocktails for every problem. Any natural product,i.e. one made from leaves of trees grown in Asia must be banned to protect us. Yes, the government and its agents constantly scan to see what might help people so they can ban it. Let me go back to the beginning as I draw near the end by saying that they start with abortion. They have trained women along with the Supreme Court to call it reproductive freedom but now 10 states allow abortion until the moment of birth. That sounds a lot like cold blooded murder to me but the proponents of it clap like trained seals with no knowledge, apparently, that they are assisting a very evil few to destroy many. Finally. Folks, I know this all sounds like some wild conspiracy theory but it is instead fact whether you choose to see clear evidence or not. At least that's the way I see it, Until next time folks, This is Darrell Castle, Thanks for listening.

Fertility treatment is becoming increasingly common in Canada. But why?On this episode of DemograFix, Cara Stern and Mike Moffatt dig into the dramatic rise of IVF and fertility treatment in Canada, and what it tells us about how Canadians are building families.IVF births in Ontario have nearly doubled as a share of all live births since 2014, while the average age of patients starting IVF has climbed past 35. As Canadians spend longer in school, establish careers later, face higher housing and living costs, and delay parenthood, more people are turning to fertility treatment to help build the families they want.But access to fertility care can depend heavily on where you live. Cara and Mike look at the geographic lottery of fertility treatment, differences in provincial funding, long waitlists, workplace benefits, and the often-overlooked costs of IVF, including time away from work and travel for treatment.The bigger question is what happens when more Canadians are trying to have children later in life.Is Canada's fertility system prepared for growing demand? And should policymakers be looking beyond IVF to the housing, career and economic pressures that are pushing parenthood later?#IVF #Fertility #Canada #Demographics #FertilityTreatment #OntarioChapters:00:00 Introduction00:42 The Economic Reality of Delayed Parenthood01:28 Why is Fertility Treatment Usage Up?02:44 Biology and Success Rates03:08 Analyzing the Data Surge04:16 The Geographic Lottery of Fertility Access05:22 The Biological Realities06:41 The Myth of Fertility Control07:44 Rising Complications in Younger Patients08:27 Male Factor Infertility08:42 The High Cost of Treatment and Waitlists10:03 The Hidden Costs (Time & Travel)11:34 Workplace Benefits and Trends12:01 Recap and Future Outlook13:01 Policy Responses and Root CausesResearch/links:Publicly funded in-vitro fertilization (IVF) program - Province of British Columbia Canadian assisted reproductive technologies registry CARTR PLUs annual report CARTR Reports - Canadian Fertility & Andrology Society Provincial coverage | Fertility Matters Canada https://news.ontario.ca/en/release/1007375/ontario-connecting-more-families-to-fertility-supportshttps://www.zionmarketresearch.com/report/in-vitro-fertilization-marketHosted by Mike Moffatt & Cara Stern & Sabrina MaddeauxProduced by Meredith MartinEdited by Sean Foreman and Canadian Civil

A team that consistently delivers results isn't always a healthy team. In this episode, we explore why high-performing teams can still become stuck in passive waiting hesitant to share ideas, embrace change, or take risks. Learn the three leadership shifts that help teams move from fear to trust: building psychological safety, fostering collaboration over competition, and modeling calm under pressure. Sometimes the biggest culture changes begin with one simple conversation. Top 3 Takeaways: 1. Psychological safety fuels innovation. People are far more likely to share ideas and embrace change when they know honesty won't be punished. 2. Collaboration creates stronger teams. Publicly celebrating shared wins and focusing on collective success builds trust, engagement, and retention. 3. Culture changes one conversation at a time. Leaders don't need a major initiative to create change—they need the courage to go first and ask honest questions. Episode Minutes: Minute 2: Collaboration versus competition Minute 4: "Teams borrow their leader's nervous system far more than they borrow their leader's strategy."

Episode 124 featuring Darrel Walls... This episode starts with laughs, jokes, and pure chaos, but quickly turns into a vulnerable conversation about identity, judgment, faith, and what happens when the world puts you on a pedestal because of your gift. Darrel Walls opens up about making mistakes publicly, being judged by the Christian community, and the pressure of being expected to be perfect because his gift helps lead others to God. We unpack the difference between who you are and what you do, refusing to let your past define you, and remembering that even the people God uses are still human. This one gets real.

How laughable. The big tent of the Left now includes Nazis, misogynists, rapist, illegals, those who would kill for illegals, anti-Americans of any ilk, anti-Semites, ripoff artists from all over the globe. When you consider the makeup of the Left, one word comes to mind: terrorists. We call Iran the biggest state-sponsor of terrorism, but I challenge that. I think the American Leftist is the biggest sponsor of terror.   https://x.com/HormuzReport/status/2086808758072840408 Iran has completely ruled out any future negotiations with the Trump administration, declaring it will wait out Donald Trump's term until January 20, 2029, per Iranian outlets and Ghalibaf advisor's post. "Trump will not reach an agreement with us. We will accompany him until his term ends," said Majid Shakeri, advisor to Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf. He posted: "The path to victory is neither fighting nor a deal — it is managing the process of neither war nor peace, up to the point of victory. Publicly confirming negotiations with the U.S. is sheer folly. The winning approach is denial, ambiguity, and strategic patience." Iran's conditions remain unchanged: $300 billion in compensation, release of frozen assets, and withdrawal of U.S. forces. Until then, the Strait stays closed. [X] SB – Iranian man on support of Pres Trump There is something happening in Iran right now that I find absolutely hilarious. Not the suffering of the Iranian people. That's tragic. I'm talking about the suffering of the American media trying to explain why Donald Trump isn't losing. Because apparently we have reached the point where Trump is simultaneously losing the war, running out of missiles, failing to negotiate, destroying the Iranian economy, controlling the Strait of Hormuz, and somehow forcing Iran to make demands about how it wants the United States to end the war. I know. That's quite a magic trick. And now the media has discovered something else. Trump is "pivoting." That's the word. Trump is supposedly pivoting away from the military campaign and back toward economic pressure. No. He isn't pivoting. There was never a pivot. That's the story. Trump has been applying pressure to Iran from multiple directions all along. The military campaign is one weapon. Sanctions are another. The blockade is another.

The part of Alex Murdaugh's new defense filing that matters most is the part about personnel files. Tony Brueski works the listener mail with Robin Dreeke, a retired FBI Special Agent who spent his career in behavioral analysis.The motion asks the court to order prosecutors to produce updated disciplinary records and internal affairs materials. It covers misconduct findings on any officer or forensic analyst tied to the investigation, arrest or prosecution. It names no one. The language is broad enough to reach several people.One of them is former SLED senior special agent Ryan Kelly. He led the investigation into the September 2021 roadside shooting involving Murdaugh and Curtis Eddie Smith. Kelly testified at the 2023 murder trial. He told jurors investigators had found nothing whatsoever connecting Smith to the killings of Maggie and Paul. Kelly left SLED in 2025 and joined the Charleston County Sheriff's Office as chief inspector of internal affairs. He was fired from that job in June 2026 after an administrative investigation into allegations of harassment, conduct unbecoming, improper procedures and unsatisfactory performance.That termination has not been linked to anything Kelly did while at SLED, and there is no indication the allegations involved any Murdaugh-related investigation. Whether any of it would be admissible is a question for the court. Publicly available records do not describe the underlying conduct.That is exactly the kind of post-trial development the motion appears built to capture, and it is why listeners keep asking how exposed the state's witness list actually is.His convictions no longer stand, and Murdaugh is presumed innocent heading into April. Robin Dreeke handles the mailbag on credibility files, impeachment, and what a jury never sees.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

“The way the law is working — the Workday case is exhibit A here — is that vendors are going to be on the hook if their systems are producing biased outcomes. Period.”— Marc WeinsteinEpisode OverviewIn this episode I'm joined by Marc Weinstein, an attorney with 27+ years of practice focused on organizations that use tests to make high-stakes decisions about people — licensure, certification, admissions, and employment selection. His work centers on the legal rights of people impacted by AI systems and the organizations that use them.The legal ground under AI hiring is moving fast. In the past few months a state AI law got sued into a rewrite, a court handed down a ruling that shields bias audit data from view, and a new lawsuit opened a line of attack nobody was watching. If you buy, sell, or use AI hiring tools, this episode helps you stay on top of the shifting sands.Topics Discussed & Key Insights1. First, how to roll: governance before headlines.Marc's advice starts above the regulations. Your own governance is the key to successful risk mitigation. Get this part right and the rest gets much easier.* Before you track any law, ask why you want to use AI in the first place. If you have good answers, then ask how* Set principles for your organization — not for the whole world, for your organization. Let them drive your use cases, your vendor selection, and your evaluation criteria* Operate by them for real. A policy that lives on paper is worth nothing* Do this and you're already in compliance with most of the laws that could touch you. Everything below is what's shifting underneath that foundation2. Vendor liability is shifting fast — get ready now.For a long time, vendors selling hiring tools got a pass. How the customer used the tool was the customer's problem. That arrangement is breaking down.* In Mobley v. Workday, the court is letting claims proceed on the theory that the platform acts as an agent of its employer customers — which puts the same federal anti-discrimination laws that apply to employers on the platform* Plaintiffs go where the deep pockets are. Mega vendors like Workday and 8fold are the deep pockets* Employers are still independently on the hook. Vendor liability adds to yours, it doesn't replace it* Newer legislation points the same direction, and California's new regulations make bias testing itself evidence in court — more on that below* Since we recorded: the court refused to dismiss most of the remaining claims against Workday. The case keeps moving, and the core theory keeps surviving3. Bias audit data can be withheld — and that says a lot.A discovery ruling in the Workday case protected the company's bias testing data from the plaintiffs. Worth sitting with what that means.* The court held the data was privileged because lawyers curated it and the testing was done to provide legal advice — not for business use* Publicly advertising that you conduct bias testing did not waive the privilege* So the people alleging harm from the system may never see the data that would show whether the system harmed them* The bigger question: if the most important evidence about how these tools perform can be shielded, what does accountability actually look like? Proof may have to come from other directions4. There are new ways to hold these tools accountable.The Eightfold case shows creative lawyering finding routes into AI hiring that didn't exist a year ago.* The claim is built on the Fair Credit Reporting Act and privacy law — the argument is that AI-generated candidate scores are consumer reports, compiled without the required disclosures and consent* These theories don't require proving discrimination as a legal element, which makes them easier cases to bring* The target hasn't changed. It's still about how these tools treat people. There are just more ways to get there now5. Colorado is the cautionary tale: get aggressive, get crushed.Colorado passed the most rigorous state AI law in the country — mandatory risk management, impact assessments, a real duty of care. Then it got taken apart.* xAI sued to block the law. The DOJ intervened on xAI's side — the first time the federal government moved to invalidate a state AI law* The legislature rewrote the law under pressure. The replacement is a notice-and-transparency framework, delayed to January 2027* The lesson for everyone else: states that regulate AI aggressively are going to get sued by the federal government and the private sector. Plan around that reality6. Meanwhile, California quietly became the strictest.While everyone watched Colorado, California put real requirements on the books — and nobody has sued to stop them.* Under the FEHA regulations, conducting a documented bias test supports an employer's defense in discrimination litigation. Not conducting one supports the plaintiff. Records must be kept four years* The privacy agency's automated decision-making rules take effect January 2027: pre-use notice to applicants and employees, opt-out rights, and the right to demand how a system reached a decision about you* That last one matters. Can anyone actually explain how a frontier AI model reached its decision? For most of these tools, the honest answer is noFinal TakeawayThe laws will keep shifting. Colorado got rewritten, California's deadlines are coming, and the courts are redrawing vendor liability case by case. You can't chase all of it. Build the governance foundation, make vendors show you their evidence — your data, not just their study — and treat every recommendation a machine makes as the decision it really is. Good governance gets you more than 90% of the way there, as long as it's not just lip service. This is a public episode.

Our Head of U.S. Public Policy Research Ariana Salvatore explains how U.S.-China tensions, export controls and domestic regulation are reshaping where AI is built, who controls it and what investors should watch.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Ariana Salvatore: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Ariana Salvatore, Head of U.S. Public Policy Research at Morgan Stanley. Today, a look at how government is increasingly determining the future of AI in the U.S. – from where it's built to which technologies US companies and consumers can use. It's Friday, August 7th at 10am in New York. AI is rapidly reshaping the economy and society, so this is a pivotal moment for government to consider the rules governing that development. The first area to watch is technology restrictions, particularly in the context of U.S.-China competition. Now, for much of the past decade, the government's approach has been to restrict a relatively narrow group of technologies with clear national security implications while maintaining broader commercial ties. But as export controls spread across more sectors of the economy and AI moves from software into physical infrastructure, the definition of what qualifies as national security has become broader. The Department of Commerce could, for example, expand the entity list. That would require US cloud providers, software companies, and model marketplaces to remove or stop supporting models tied to designated Chinese developers. Congress could then make those restrictions more durable through things like the annual defense bill or other policy vehicles. We're keeping an eye on several legislative proposals, like the AI Overwatch Act, which would tighten controls and give congressional oversight around exports of the most advanced AI chips; and the MATCH Act, which would extend restrictions further upstream to semiconductor manufacturing equipment and seek closer alignment with allied producers. These measures wouldn't directly ban Americans from using a Chinese model, but they could constrain China's ability to train future frontier systems. But it's not just the US that could impose a set of restrictions. China has a parallel set of tools focused more on integration and market access. Regulators could block four models or APIs. They could require locally controlled deployment. They could impose Chinese data and content standards or use cybersecurity and entity list authorities to promote domestic substitutes. The likely result is an increasingly distinct pair of AI ecosystems. That's our two worlds thesis in practice. Over time, we think that means a bifurcated global AI market into separate technology ecosystems. That looks like the U.S. relying on export controls, allied supply chains, and largely closed frontier model platforms, while China emphasizes domestic hardware, open-weight models, subsidized compute, and localization. Over time, that bifurcation could produce different chips, models, standards, data rules, and distribution channels, while third countries navigate between the competing stacks. The second area to watch is domestic regulation. Today, the landscape is pretty fragmented. States are moving first on certain specific issues, including automated decision-making and child safety. Now, at the same time, Congress is confronting competing objectives from industry, consumer groups, and national security officials. So far, we think the evidence suggests that the administration's preference is for a light-touch approach, a largely voluntary national framework rather than a broad new licensing regime. But it's also moving toward more direct oversight of the most advanced models. That includes the possibility to play a more active role prior to model release to ensure that certain protections like cybersecurity and intellectual property are met. Publicly outlined priorities from industry seem to broadly overlap with that approach: a consistent federal framework, clearer liability standards, access to data, compute, and power, and copyright rules that don't materially limit model training. But of course, the industry isn't monolithic. There are some important nuances between frontier developers and other players. So, what does all this mean for investors? The government's reaction function will be critical to the way AI is developed and diffused throughout our society in two key ways. First, we see regulation altering not only the pace, but also the geography of AI infrastructure. At the same time, we think these constraints could strengthen the investment case for bottleneck solutions like on-site power generation, fuel cells, storage, and more. Second, greater technology bifurcation supports investment in parallel supply chains. The key takeaway here is that the government is no longer simply regulating the industry from the sidelines. It's helping to determine how fast AI develops through domestic rules, where it develops through infrastructure, permitting, and sovereign AI policy, and which technologies are accessible through export controls and market access restrictions. Thanks for listening. If you enjoy the show, please leave us a review wherever you listen and share Thoughts on the Market with a friend or colleague today.

A 1999 child-protection campaign linked to the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children brought Prince Andrew and Peter Mandelson together at a high-profile event focused on safeguarding vulnerable children. Both men were publicly positioned as advocates against abuse, aligning themselves with efforts to protect minors. Within a short period after that introduction, however, both were photographed socializing with Jeffrey Epstein, creating a stark contrast between their public roles and their private associations.That overlap has since drawn criticism, with individuals connected to the campaign expressing regret about facilitating the connection and acknowledging how it intersected with Epstein's wider network. The situation highlights how Epstein was able to operate within elite circles that included political figures and royalty, even as those same figures were publicly tied to causes meant to combat the kind of abuse he was accused of. Both Andrew and Mandelson have denied wrongdoing, but the timing and proximity of these relationships continue to raise questions about judgment and why those associations were not immediately severed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New picture shows disgraced Andrew with Mandelson at kids charity event weeks after 'meeting for first time'Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Larry Kudlow just delivered one of the most brutal live television takedowns of Senate Republican leadership that you will ever see.During a heated interview with Republican Senator James Lankford, Kudlow held absolutely nothing back—challenging the Senate GOP over its failure to advance President Trump's agenda, its weak messaging, its abbreviated work schedule and the uncertain future of the SAVE America Act.“Where is it?”“You're bungling everything.”“Nothing is getting done.”Kudlow said directly to Lankford's face what millions of frustrated Americans have been demanding to know: Why do Republicans repeatedly campaign on President Trump's priorities, win political power and then fail to deliver the legislation their voters expected?The SAVE America Act remains a major priority for President Trump and his supporters, but its path through the Senate is far from guaranteed. The confrontation became even more explosive when Kudlow accused Republican leadership of losing its energy, its message and its ability to explain what it is accomplishing for the American people.Was Kudlow right to publicly confront Senator Lankford? Are establishment Republicans moving too slowly on election integrity, immigration and the rest of Trump's agenda? Or are Senate rules and Democratic opposition the real obstacles?Watch the entire breakdown, then tell me what you think in the comments.Do Senate Republicans need to remain in Washington until the SAVE America Act reaches President Trump's desk?Subscribe and turn on notifications for breaking political news, fact-checking and analysis from Professor Nez.#LarryKudlow #JamesLankford #SAVEAmericaAct #TrumpAgenda #SenateRepublicans #BreakingNewsFor free and unbiased Medicare help, dial (656) 218-0931 to speak with my trusted partner, Chapter, or go to https://askchapter.org/nez✅ Reach out to me: https://bio.site/professornez✅ ORIGINAL MADE IN U.S.A 250TH AMERICA DESIGNS: https://professornez.myspreadshop.com/✅ Check out our Official Clips Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@professornezclips▶ Support the Channel and Buy us a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/professornezEducational Commentary & Original AnalysisThis channel presents educational, lecture-style analysis created by a university professor and educator.

She came to the United States from Cameroon almost 30 years ago with a master's degree in education, almost no exposure to computers, and a goal to pursue a doctorate. Her two sisters, both already in IT careers, redirected her. She thought she could never succeed in the field. She became an IT help desk worker. Then a network administrator. Then an IT manager. Then a director. Then a CIO. Then a COO in Spain. Then a Chief Technology and Innovation Officer. Then a Vice President and CIO at a California State University. Her PhD — the original goal from 1995 — she completed in 2019. Twenty-four years later than planned. Dr. Monique is Vice President for Information Technology and CIO at California State University, Chico, and a multiple CIO award winner. In this episode, she shares the specific moments — some planned, some forced on her — that defined how she uses her voice to steer her career. You'll learn: Dr. Monique was the only person of color in senior leadership at an elite STEM university. She organized the conversation her organization wasn't having: a roundtable on race and social justice with her IT team. She went first, dropped her own protective mask, and shared her own experiences with racism — which is what unlocked everyone else. The sessions grew into a six-cohort DEI program across the entire university, co-developed under her executive vice president. A junior male employee publicly questioned in a group meeting whether she was being overpaid. Her two white male predecessors' salaries had never been questioned by that same group. She stood up calmly and said: "I did not come to this meeting to discuss my salary. But if I must, I believe I am appropriately compensated for the work that I do." The room went silent. How she trained herself to respond to the angry Black woman stereotype: when emotions rise, her voice drops lower instead of higher. She slows down. She puts her hands on her thighs. She stands with her feet flat on the ground. She stated her intention to her team before a difficult conversation: "I am standing up not to be overpowering, but because having my feet on the ground helps me control my emotions." Days later, people were still reaching out saying it changed how they see her. At a conference in Chicago, a vendor friend insisted she skip the Super Bowl to meet someone he knew. She agreed. The stranger asked her about her career. She "unabashedly spoke up" about her achievements. He told her they were building a role to lead technological innovation. She applied. She got the job as Chief Technology and Innovation Officer. She applied for Deputy CIO at the Colorado School of Mines with none of the required higher education experience. Got interviewed. Got the job. Eight months later: interim CIO. Three months after that: full CIO. She directly asked her executive vice president there to sponsor her — sharing her goals specifically and asking for stretch assignments. That EVP let her serve as deputy COO while still serving as CIO. The framework she and Ivna coin in this episode: "confident humility." Women often embrace the humility and delete the confidence. The combination of both — taking no apologies for what she has accomplished while doing so with poise and grace — is what she credits for attracting sponsors throughout her career. Why she asks directly for sponsorship by naming specific career goals and specific asks, and why she audits her sponsor network regularly — including thinking about what would happen to her if her strongest advocate left the organization tomorrow.

What separates an impressive agentic AI demonstration from a deployment that produces measurable business value across an entire company? In this episode, I speak with Frank Theisen, Vice President of IBM Technology across Europe, the Middle East and Africa, about how businesses can move AI agents beyond isolated pilots and into the processes where work actually happens. Frank believes the conversation has changed considerably. Most large companies are deploying some form of AI, yet many still struggle to demonstrate a significant commercial return. The difference comes from connecting AI with end-to-end business processes rather than creating another assistant that sits outside the systems employees use every day. IBM has attempted to prove this internally through its "client zero" approach, using its own technology across human resources, IT, procurement, sales and software development before taking those practices to customers. The company reports that AI, automation and hybrid cloud have contributed to $4.5 billion in productivity gains over three years. Frank explains how IBM's AskHR service handles common employee inquiries and helps managers complete administrative tasks without learning how to operate several separate enterprise applications. IBM reports that AI now resolves 94 percent of common HR requests automatically, while similar work is taking place across IT support and procurement. The discussion then turns to orchestration. As companies acquire agents from multiple software providers, the problem becomes far larger than creating individual assistants. Businesses need to understand how agents communicate, which systems they can access, what identities they use and who remains accountable for their actions. Frank expects the number of applications, agents and non-human identities to grow rapidly. Without orchestration and governance, companies risk recreating the same application sprawl they have spent years attempting to reduce, this time with software capable of making decisions and generating additional code. Data presents another barrier. Publicly trained models rarely contain the proprietary information that gives a company its commercial advantage. That information remains distributed across databases, applications, mainframes and cloud services. Frank argues that enterprises need a governed, federated way to bring AI to their data without repeatedly copying everything into another repository. We also discuss digital sovereignty across Europe and the Middle East. Frank describes sovereignty as a matter of control across data, operations and technology. Companies need to decide which workloads require isolation, which regulations apply and where dependence on one provider could limit their future choices. Wimbledon provides a timely example of these principles in practice. IBM Bob helped modernize the tournament's digital platform by mapping and migrating approximately 15,000 articles, videos, photographs and related metadata. IBM says work that would traditionally require four or five specialists over several months was completed by one engineer within four weeks, with the assets themselves extracted in 47 minutes. Frank closes with three practical priorities. Understand where AI could affect the business, determine how successful use cases can be automated across complete processes, then address security, governance and provider dependence before expanding them. If your company already has dozens of AI pilots, should the next investment create another agent or coordinate the ones you already have? Listen to the episode and share your thoughts with me.

Hunter Biden says he has nothing left to hide. He's been all over the internet in recent months, including appearances with some of his harshest critics, such as ultra-conservative podcasters Candace Owens and Nick Fuentes. In May, he reactivated his long-dormant X account, writing, “You've never actually heard from me.” Since then, he's posted an average of 23 times per day — weighing in on politics, news and culture. After his private life and struggle with addiction was made public through leaks in the media, congressional investigations and federal prosecutions, Biden now says being ‘stripped naked in the public square' was, in a way, a gift. In this episode of NPR's Newsmakers, Scott Simon sat down with Biden, who opened up about that public shaming, why President Joe Biden decided to pardon him after tax and gun convictions and why he didn't want his father to run for reelection in 2024 – but didn't tell him at the time.Newsmakers is where you'll find NPR's biggest interviews.

1. Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and its policy platform: Socialist, communist, and Marxist in nature. A proposal to replace elements of the existing American constitutional system. An attempt to eliminate or weaken traditional checks and balances in government. 2. Government Restructuring DSA supports changes such as: Eliminating the Electoral College. Expanding the House of Representatives. Ending the Senate filibuster. Reducing the Supreme Court's power of judicial review. Moving toward a governmental structure centered on a single federal legislature. Abolishing the U.S. Senate. Implementing ranked-choice voting. 3. Economic and Social Vision Reduced work obligations. Universal access to housing. Elimination of debt. No need for private health insurance. Publicly funded retirement. Freedom from mortgages and landlords. 4. Immigration and Border Policies Ending immigration detention and deportation practices. Granting amnesty to undocumented immigrants. Reducing border enforcement measures. 5. Influence on the Democratic Party The DSA has become increasingly influential within Democratic politics. Establishment Democrats enabled the rise of socialist candidates. More Democratic candidates are receiving support from socialist organizations and winning elections. The DSA IS pushing the Democratic Party further left.

Ken and Anthony revisit the 2010 Cavs pitch to LeBron, including a bizarre Family Guy-style cartoon the front office made for him, before pivoting to the surreal modern version playing out on podcasts, where former GM Bob Myers openly pitched LeBron on joining the 76ers during an appearance on agent Rich Paul's show. The hosts debate whether Cavs front office figures like Kobe Altman should go on Rich Paul's podcast to make a public case for LeBron staying in Cleveland, with Anthony arguing a strong, respectful pitch is necessary while Ken worries it could look desperate. They agree LeBron still wants to feel wanted and that a genuine basketball-based case, not just fan nostalgia, is what should be made if the Cavs want him back. The segment closes by teasing the ongoing question of whether Cavs fans have been spoiled by the LeBron era and whether that's fueling unfair criticism of Donovan Mitchell.

Ken takes heat from callers after arguing the Cavs need to make a genuine, public effort to bring LeBron back rather than assume nostalgia alone will do the trick. Multiple callers, including one who compares Bob Myers' pitch to a "pathetic loser" move, push back that a legend like LeBron shouldn't need to be courted and that the Cavs have already done their work behind the scenes. Ken clarifies he's not asking anyone to beg, just to give LeBron real basketball reasons to return rather than taking his loyalty for granted the way he felt taken for granted in 2010. The segment closes with a callback to their old "Cleveland Classic" bit, floating other beloved former Cleveland players like Francisco Lindor they'd want to see return.

Episode 118 featuring Ariel Pryor... She came from hard. And she built something harder. Ariel Pryor sat down with B. Simone and gave LTTA a side of herself she has never shared publicly — and sis did not hold back. In this episode she talked about growing up in a past that wasn't easy, becoming a millionaire in her early 20s, selling digital products, and what it actually costs to build an empire while keeping God at the center. But then they got into the real stuff. Dating while abstinent. What that actually looks like in real life with a real boyfriend. Staying grounded when your platform is growing faster than you can keep up with. And the pressure that comes with being a woman on the rise in this new social media era. This episode is for the woman who is building something, believes in something, and is trying not to lose herself in the process. Ariel is on her way up — and this conversation will take you with her.

Michael Vorenberg challenges the idea that the Civil War ended at Appomattox Courthouse on April 9, 1865. While Lee's surrender was a crucial step involving the stacking of arms, Lincoln did not publicly declare the war over. Lincolnremained focused on the ongoing process of reconstruction. (9)1863.
