PREVIEW FOR LATER. GUEST: Liz Peek. Peek discusses rapid corporate AIadoption, emphasizing that it focuses on enhancing productivity and profitability rather than job loss. This technological shift is driving significant gains across almost every industry. (3)1959

While Gerard is fixing his knee, Laurent invites Chris Seiple, Vice Chairman of WoodMac Power & Renewables group, to try to make sense of the scale of the coming power demand surge and the strain it is placing on today's US market structures.AI-driven datacenter growth is pushing the US power system into uncharted territory. Roughly 180 GW of U.S. electricity commitments tied to datacenters represent about 30% incremental demand. Hyperscaler CAPEX is exploding. Demand is accelerating far faster than new supply can come online, setting up a near-term imbalance. In response, the U.S. utility sector is preparing for a potential $1.4 trillion investment supercycle over the next five years.In regulated markets, utilities are under pressure to modernize cost-of-service models and deliver massive capital programs while keeping electricity affordable. Companies such as Duke Energy, Southern Company, Entergy, and CenterPoint Energy are planning investments that run into the hundreds of billions.In deregulated markets, players like Constellation Energy, Vistra Corp., and NRG Energy face a structural mismatch: datacenters can be built faster than power plants, while price signals may not rise quickly enough to incentivize new generation. Some customers are exploring off-grid solutions, but these bring technical and economic challenges.The conclusion is clear: load growth is staggering. Parts of the system may move toward re-regulation, but that alone will not be enough. Rapid innovation—decentralized solutions, grid-enhancing technologies, faster interconnections, and deeper digitization—will be essential as utilities relearn how to build at scale and speed.  Check an excellent WoodMac report on the Datacentershttps://www.woodmac.com/horizons/us-data-centre-power-demand-challenges-electricity-market-model/  

This week we talk about The Eminence in Shadow Season 2. We start off by discussing our views on the pacing as well as the main character's ridiculous luck. Jack breaks down the rapid-fire arcs, from the Lawless City to a literal corporate war, arguing that the 12-episode run felt rushed and entirely predictable. He saw the protagonist, Cid, as an idiot with blinders on who just stumbles into success through the whole series. Rick, on the other hand, thinks the pacing is a solid step up from season one. He argued that Cid doesn't stumble but rather he "confidently saunters" through the plot as the ultimate edgelord, spitting out gibberish and half-remembered facts that his fanatical followers interpret as absolute genius. In the end we discuss how the series was overall and if it was something that is worth the watch.About the anime:The Eminence in Shadow Season 2 continues where season 1 largely left off. Kicking off with the "Lawless City Arc," where Cid and Shadow Garden investigate the red moon phenomenon and clash with the city's three monarchs: the Blood Queen Elisabeth, Juggernaut, and Yukime. After a very chaotic and rapid first few episodes, everything transitions into the "Corporate War Arc," where Cid takes on a new persona of John Smith and moves into a massive counterfeit currency  operation to cause a crisis meant to bankrupt the Mitsugoshi Company. In the end everything results in a massive misunderstanding for him but to his peers everything went according to plan. Leading to the third and final “Oriana Kingdom Arc” where we learn more about the Cult of Diablo, their plans and views and the worlds(?). The show maintains that Cid constantly misunderstands the gravity of the plot while effortlessly looking like a tactical genius to everyone around him.Next Week's Pick: “I Parry Everything”Have you had the chance to watch Eminence In Shadow Season 2 or any of our previous selections?

Description Stop experimenting with AI and start driving ROI. Subscribe to our Newsletter:https://theultimatepartner.com/ebook-subscribe/ Check Out UPX:https://theultimatepartner.com/experience/ In this keynote from the Ultimate Partners Winter Retreat, Nina Harding breaks down the massive shift happening in the AI landscape as customers move away from experimental pilots and demand concrete ROI and business outcomes. She emphasizes that the era of selling products and time-and-materials approaches is over, replaced by outcome-based, verticalized selling where vendors and partners share accountability. Through real-world examples in healthcare and retail, Harding outlines how partners can leverage Copilot Studio, Agent 365, and Microsoft’s incentive programs to build specific superpowers, differentiate themselves, and ultimately lead the AI mission alongside Microsoft. Key Takeaways Customers are no longer interested in AI experimentation and now expect immediate, concrete return on investment. Selling products is dead; the modern approach requires a consultative, signal-based strategy focused entirely on business outcomes. The traditional time-and-materials billing model is disappearing as clients demand shared accountability for project success. Rapid proliferation of AI agents has made security and governance top priorities for enterprise customers. Success in the Microsoft ecosystem now requires partners to highly verticalize their value propositions by industry. Defining and clearly articulating your unique “superpower” or niche is essential to stand out to the Microsoft field sales organization. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJJ4Zcf4tZc&t=1920s If you're ready to lead through change, elevate your business, and achieve extraordinary outcomes through the power of partnership—this is your community.

[00:00:14] Vince Menzione: We just finished Ultimate Partners Winter Retreat here in beautiful Boca to a sold out [00:00:19] Vince Menzione: crowd. Come join me now for a compelling discussion on the impacts of the tectonic shifts we’re all seeing. [00:00:27] Vince Menzione: I feel incredibly fortunate, uh, to have this, this, this friend Nina who came into the studio here for the first time, actually earlier, well last year, geez, earlier this year. [00:00:38] Vince Menzione: It was last year, right after my accident I think. And, uh, we gotta spend some time together. And she was so good to, uh, make her time available and her team’s time available to come down here to be with us today. Ne I’m so thrilled to have you. I am going to turn over the stage to you. Uh, you’ve got some incredible learnings. [00:00:57] Vince Menzione: I know you’ve been on the AI tour with Microsoft. Yeah. And you’ve got some great learnings you’re gonna share about what’s happening. Absolutely. So it’s so great to have you. [00:01:05] Vince Menzione: It’s nice to see you. [00:01:06] Nina Harding: Nice to see you. [00:01:07] Nina Harding: Thank you. Well, thanks everyone. It’s great to see so many familiar faces and then some new faces as well. [00:01:15] Nina Harding: Um, because we’re in a little bit more of an intimate environment, I thought I would approach this a little bit differently. Give you some better insights into what we’re actually hearing at Microsoft with our customers, some of the things that are actually moving the needle that we’re seeing some of our partners do. [00:01:34] Nina Harding: So really to share some of the best practices out there, and hopefully you’ll leave with some more insight or tips and tricks, um, is really what I would love to do because our job. Collectively is really this transformation and to take a advantage of it out there in the market right now. [00:01:57] Nina Harding: Let’s see [00:01:57] Nina Harding: here. [00:01:59] Nina Harding: I can move slides. Well, this one isn’t moving. Any slides? [00:02:07] Nina Harding: No. Okay, great. So, um, some of you might. Uh, know that I’m a Floridian now, right? So I just live right up, up the way in Palm Beach. Um, so not too far, but I still wouldn’t miss this opportunity to be with all of you. Um, there is an energy that I think that we’re all feeling right now, and, uh, it’s, it’s palpable. [00:02:32] Nina Harding: We’re finding right now that our customers are really going from this landscape of experimenting with ai. Really to looking at the outcomes and having expectations around the momentum that they’re seeing. Right. That’s a big shift, right? We, and things are going pretty quickly, so I look at things almost quarterly now on what is that core message and what are, what is the difference in the tone from our customers of what they’re expecting? [00:03:06] Nina Harding: What we’re gonna talk a little bit about today is how all of you, our partners, are such a critical part of that journey. Actually, sometimes the most important part. You’re on the front lines with the customers. You’re the ones having those conversations. You’re the ones that are in there arm to arm with their teams, listening to what they’re experiencing, their challenges that they’re facing, and they’re really wanting now to go from this world of, Hey, we have lots of different pilots. [00:03:41] Nina Harding: Right? A lot of us know that right into, oh my gosh, it’s not about pilots anymore. They really want that ROI story. They want those outcomes and it’s looking very different for all of us. The way that we sell, the way that we go into our engagements, the way that we even price things, the way that we, meaning Microsoft partner and customer are locking arms is fundamentally very different. [00:04:15] Nina Harding: We have to go in collectively. We have to also be responsible for the outcomes and deliver on those. ROI is that headline that we’re all after. Right. It is the most important part of the puzzle right now because there isn’t a single boardroom that isn’t talking about AI and you guys are all experiencing it. [00:04:39] Nina Harding: It’s easier than ever to go in and have the conversation. The hardest part is how do we quickly get to an ROI study, so you or ROI case so that we can continue to build on that. And when you’re looking at this every. Customer is providing signals out there to help you grow that penetration into the account. [00:05:04] Nina Harding: And I’m gonna share some of the signals that I think that are really meaningful. But that’s the most important thing is we’re no longer, and I know you guys all know this, we’re no longer selling product at all anymore. We’re selling those outcomes. And I can tell you at Microsoft, we’re spending a tremendous amount of time retraining all of our sales reps. [00:05:25] Nina Harding: Really to be focused on how do you listen and do that consultative signal based sale. How do you actually go in and start selling, not selling, but I mean it is selling, but listening to the journey that they want to go through. What are the challenges that they’re facing and what’s the transformation that we’re able to kind of go and be a part of together with our partners? [00:05:54] Nina Harding: Notice it’s not about product. Product is just the tools in your tool chest to create those outcomes. So that’s gonna be really important as we go through this journey. [00:06:09] Nina Harding: Uh, so I saw the, the title of the session, uh, mentioned Davos and Davos was an interesting time. Uh, Microsoft has a very, actually, a very big presence at Davos and, uh, we had over 300 customer meetings there, uh, where we were meeting with some of the top companies around the globe. And it was very much affirmed that. [00:06:34] Nina Harding: Uh, the, the concept of AI we’re past, like curiosity stage, right? We’re way past that and we’re even past that. The art of the possible discussion, right? Uh, what the, the customers are almost at the point is, is come in and tell me, tell me what to do. Show me how to do it. It’s a very different position than, Hey, we’re presenting you with all these different possibilities. [00:07:08] Nina Harding: They’re They’re tired. They’re tired of all the possibilities. They wanna get to the brass tacks of how are you gonna change my customer service department? How are you gonna make it easier for my hr? How am I going to derive growth? What are some of the other things that you guys are experiencing out there? [00:07:23] Nina Harding: Like what are some of those other ROI drivers that people are asking, where am I gonna find the money? What for? For doing the project or out of the project? Other people? I Okay. To do the project. Okay. Resourcing. Okay. So what we’re seeing here is that, uh, the conversation is very much now focused on, okay, I need sec, I need security. [00:07:50] Nina Harding: That has been louder than ever before. So, Vince, the one thing I would say about that slide where you had those five different pillars, I’d put security on the bottom. Understanding your data, your data platform on the bottom, those are consistent across all those pillars. And then you can kind of hit at them. [00:08:10] Nina Harding: But, uh, there’s a lot of energy, there’s a lot of excitement, but it’s rooted in what are you materially going to do to change my business, and is your skin in the game to help me do it and I’ll pay you for that outcome? The concept of this time and materials approach gone. Gone. Even at Microsoft, we’re adjusting to the fact that the customers aren’t like, oh. [00:08:35] Nina Harding: Just hand it over to a system integrator and they’ll deliver on it. They’re like, oh no, we want you accountable too. You’re accountable for the outcomes as well, which is, oh gosh, okay. How do we do that in a partnery model that makes sense where we’re not tripping over each other, but we’re going in stronger together. [00:08:54] Nina Harding: We have one message together and we’re really focused on driving that. They’re also really concerned around the governance of all these agents, right? I see a lot of heads shaking on this. I mean, there’s a lot of proliferation right now. There’s a lot of excitement. I mean, I don’t know in your companies, but people are building agents faster and quicker, uh, than ever before, and some of them are really, really cool and they’re making huge point savings of times. [00:09:22] Nina Harding: Everything from. You know, some of you guys have probably heard me talk about everything from, uh, working on performance reviews to what are all of the incentives that we have for partners and making that easy to understand to, uh, to helping me understand patterns in our financials and what partners are really performing and growing. [00:09:45] Nina Harding: All of these agents are just popping up everywhere, but that creates a real governance issue and a real security issue for a lot of companies as well. So you take all of this and you hear this momentum and I think, uh, that together we’re really well poised. I think Microsoft is in a unique position together with you. [00:10:07] Nina Harding: On this frame, we have Agent 365, which helps you manage all these different agents, right? So that’s an exciting. How many of you’re familiar with agents? 365. Great. And I promise I’m not a product person. I’m not gonna do a lot of pitches, so don’t worry about that, um, at all. But, uh, we also have copilot studio and foundry, and so we have this whole, uh, set of capability, but that capability only comes to life if we’re able to connect with the customer, build the outcome, and making sure that the CEOs see all of us as their partners on that strategy and journey. [00:10:47] Nina Harding: So what does that look like? So I talked a little bit about signals, and signals, is that ability to listen to the, to the customers, what’s really, really me, uh, meaningful and frontier firms are doing this on a consistent basis all the time. Listening to the specific needs use cases, et cetera. So we at Microsoft have been trying to not only share all these different use cases that we have exposure to, but in addition. [00:11:17] Nina Harding: We turned on functionality, and I’ll talk about that in a little bit so that we can also share amongst each other as a community and understand those use cases. Uh, what’s really important is that, um, we’re moving from this world of all these like little one-off projects to a strategy and a platform that everyone wants to move to, but it’s all also getting powered by agents. [00:11:42] Nina Harding: That’s, that’s where we are today. So. [00:11:49] Nina Harding: Having a little trouble. I’m not gonna go through this too. Everyone’s familiar with this in, in here, the Frontier overview. If you’re not, let me know. Um, but basically one of the things that we find is really helpful is, is just sharing where we have seen proof behind having the conversation around the AI journey. [00:12:12] Nina Harding: Around the, the customer journey as you’re going out there. Um, there are really four different areas that we’ve talked about, and I’m not going to drain this ’cause there’s lots and you can, you can, uh, go onto the internet. You can see me talking about all these different areas. I don’t wanna spend too much time here, but these are four of the different. [00:12:33] Nina Harding: I would say categories where when you’re looking at different ways that you can make a material difference with the, the, the customer that we find the most momentum. So around enriching employee experiences, changing the way we, uh, engage with customers. Uh, changing processes as well. And then, uh, the outcomes, like really transforming the way we go about business. [00:12:59] Nina Harding: And we wanna do something about bringing it in to the flow of the work, everyday work. How many of you are finding that you’re actually using agents in your day-to-day workflow? Isn’t that cool? And then as you continue to use it, it becomes easier and easier and easier. And. I know from my team, I’m starting to look at what is the e everyday usage versus the monthly usage, right? [00:13:26] Nina Harding: It’s the every day. It’s become almost, uh, your second hand. And what’s important, uh, on this is that we’re giving, uh, listening to all these signals giving, um, the consistency, um, of the, the engagement with. With the clients, we’re able to all share the same stories and be able to scale at a much faster pace. [00:13:54] Nina Harding: So what does that look like? Here we go. Um, one of the things that we talk about at Microsoft, and the reason why I have this up here is that we’ve moved the conversation away from product into these customer outcomes, which really becomes about. Industry discussion. You have to speak their voice. You have to understand their business problems. [00:14:21] Nina Harding: You have to listen for what is materially different. So I’m actually sharing this, which you don’t normally see in a lot of presentations out to Microsoft about the structure of the organization, the takeaway. This is a sales organization in enterprise. The takeaway that I want you to have from that is look at the verticalization. [00:14:43] Nina Harding: We’ve done. It’s no longer by territory. The ball has moved, the conversation has moved entirely. So what does that say to all of you as well? Your value proposition as you’re working with our field has to be verticalized. The way you engage has to be verticalized. What you say, um, what the, the outcomes that you think differentiates yourself. [00:15:12] Nina Harding: Verticalized. So there isn’t the approach of like doing this like mask gorilla campaign across, for example, the Americas. And I’m just using this as an example on, um, the small and medium business side as well. Um, the, they’re a little bit more territory based still, but um, at least at the enterprise, everything has to be about customer value. [00:15:38] Nina Harding: Customer value. So, um, what this also suggests to me is the way we’re working and where we’ve seen a lot of success is when all of you are starting to tailor your messages and differentiate yourselves by customer success stories. Use cases where you’ve had premise, uh, penetration as a software partner, but you have to tie it back to the industry again. [00:16:05] Nina Harding: It’s just different. And so if I’m very transparent that that’s become, has gone from a nice to have to critical as the field is looking at, who are those go-to partners? It’s the go-to partners that speak retail. It’s the go-to partners that speak oil and gas and I don’t know, I, I, I see some nodding of heads. [00:16:27] Nina Harding: Some people know this, some people don’t. But I can see the shift tremendously over the last six months. So, um, hopefully that’s helpful in, in, in kind of sharing just how we’re walking the walk and talking the talk. So as I go back to industry, um, I thought what would be helpful is to take a few examples so you have a chance to see. [00:16:52] Nina Harding: In life, what are, what are we actually seeing at Microsoft? And if you guys are seeing something else, I would love to hear that too. But these, this is an example in healthcare and when we’re looking at, uh, a particular industry, we’re looking at what are some of the pain points? What are the top trends? [00:17:11] Nina Harding: What are some of the challenges folks are, are facing? And then what are the use cases that are really making traction here? This is a different way of taking that frontier vision and doing that click down by industry. And so what we’re also doing is we’re looking at who are partners that can help us in healthcare that can help answer some of these key challenges. [00:17:35] Nina Harding: Who are the ones that have the ability to have those material conversations in that trust? In healthcare, for example, there’s a ton of pressure. I mean. We all are consumers of healthcare. Hopefully we, all of us, have been lucky enough to have healthcare, um, in the, in this, uh, forum, but there’s a lot of clinician burnout, rising costs, right? [00:18:01] Nina Harding: The, the expense for, uh, medicines and so forth. But more importantly, we want to serve more and more people faster, and AI is coming in and having a very practical approach. Healthcare alone. So many of you, I talk about, um, the fact that at one point I was paralyzed, right? So I was paralyzed from T two down and, um, I go in every six months for an MRI, uh, to check, to check if everything’s still functioning. [00:18:32] Nina Harding: And the nervous system is going well. My doctor has had to manually look at that. Now he’s using AI to look at. History and the progression since 2008. That’s game changing. And on top of that, he is looking at me and having a conversation and looking in my eyes and observing me instead and using Dragon to have it feel epic to really think about how that’s changed my personal experience with the healthcare system and changed how a physician can show up. [00:19:09] Nina Harding: So there are many, many, um, many use cases around like patient access and, uh, innovation that we’re trying to do, surgeries, uh, being able to do clinical, clinical trials, but AI is everywhere and that’s what’s really important is that we’re figuring out for all of you what your software solution. Services offering, or even if you’re selling that, you have that value, value proposition down at that level. [00:19:43] Nina Harding: So let’s take a look at retail, for example. We have a short little video. Are we gonna be able to run that video? This is where we’re seeing a lot of shrinking. Margins, people wanting more, uh, intimacy with their customer. Here we go. [00:21:09] Nina Harding: Are we good? Well, that was a quite, uh, quite a nice, uh, uh, digital response to the end of the video. But what you’re seeing is people are using it in all different facets as we go into an example. I always love to do, use examples of partners that are hitting the mark ’cause we can all learn from ’em and myself included. [00:21:30] Nina Harding: We’re partners that are really successful. I chose to use Cognizant. Cognizant was actually our partner Si of the year, um, at the Americas level. And one of the things, and I won’t drain it on, um, the right hand side of this, uh, the slide, but they really are helping the customer’s move in a framework approach by industry, uh, to an AI landscape. [00:21:58] Nina Harding: Uh, they, they have secured an end-to-end solution and they’re focused on real business outcomes, and they have been growing at over 30% year over year. Huge. That’s great. Right? That’s what we all want for our businesses. And so what you’re seeing here is. They have a narrative around the frontier firms and they pull that through when they’re engaged in the clients and with our field. [00:22:27] Nina Harding: And then they’re using the incentives that we have. And don’t worry, I have a slide on some of the incentives we have, um, to actually make sure that they’re using those effectively in the pre-sales motion, but most importantly on the adoption and the change management after they’ve actually, uh, built out the solutions. [00:22:45] Nina Harding: And that’s really, really, really key here. So here’s an example of, um, of Cognizant at Coldwater Creek and Soft Surroundings. They had two different platforms and they brought it all together and then they brought Dynamics in as well. And what they have actually been able to do is improve a lot of the inventory management, the visualization, um, of all the inventory around. [00:23:14] Nina Harding: Around all of their stores and their warehouses, and they’ve been able to streamline the fulfillment and improved, uh, reduced back orders. What you’re seeing is those are all concrete examples of the outcomes that they were trying to drive for at the beginning, and those were all. Key pain points. And so they go in, cognizant will go in and understand with what are the material things that you are, that’s keeping you up at night, that is creating that drainage, uh, in your accounts or if you could transform, what does that look like? [00:23:52] Nina Harding: And so there, they spend the whole conversation together with Microsoft focused on doing that. And then we do the outcome based proposal. Very different, right? It creates for a much stronger vendor relationship, and the customer feels like they really have in the essence of the word partners, helping them to be successful. [00:24:15] Nina Harding: Right. [00:24:20] Nina Harding: Here we go. So I promised you some of the incentives, and I know you might just take a, a quick peek at some of these. These are, these are, um, some of the incentives that. Microsoft has put forward to help our partners on this journey. Uh, this is a slide that we’ve created from the America’s perspective to try and simplify it. [00:24:42] Nina Harding: Now there’s a lot behind it, right? But to try and help simplify, um, where are the incentives available? And I think this is one of the first times you’re actually saying what’s available for the sis. Versus for the software partners. And then we’re gonna hear more today about what’s also available for the channel partners as well. [00:25:03] Nina Harding: Um, it’s really thinking about what is your behavior as a partner? How are you showing up? How are, uh, you making a contribution to that customer? And then how can Microsoft best support you in that journey? So there’s all sorts of, uh, all sorts of incentives here, and it’s really, uh, designed to be flexible to what you need. [00:25:24] Nina Harding: But for the, I, I think it’s very focused on the value proposition as well that you bring to the table. So, um, I encourage you to take a look at this, make sure that you have this in your diary or your flipping of, of how are we maximizing, um, deals. And we can certainly go through a lot more of this. And we have webinars and so forth that will take you through all of that. [00:25:52] Nina Harding: Alright, so. I’ve talked a lot about this outcome-based selling, and that’s, it’s literally how Microsoft is starting to move forward on how do we go about engaging with the customers and with our partners. You’re gonna see, because our customers are asking more Microsoft involved and for us to go jointly into the opportunities. [00:26:16] Nina Harding: Not that we necessarily, we’re not building out a larger consulting force or anything like that, but. We want to make sure that the customer ask that Microsoft is engaged in working with our partners, is honored, um, and that we’re, we’re part of that, and that we’re also sharing our, our experiences and learning from all of you at the same time on who has the best, uh, approach, Beth best, best methodologies and best practices to light up our customers together. [00:26:51] Nina Harding: But the ROI doesn’t really show up just in dollars alone. We all know this, right? Um, it could be in, uh. Satisfaction it could be in care. So as you’re starting to look at this new evolution of how we’re really landing the value proposition of ai, we have to think outside of the box that it’s not just monetary and it’s not, I think you said savings or securing funds and so forth, but it’s really of how do I leapfrog into the modern world? [00:27:22] Nina Harding: How do I change that entire experience and think outside of the box? And, uh, make sure that the conversation is not just about how do we optimize certain practices, but how do we have this more executive level strategy conversation on the future of how we’re gonna engage with our clients, uh, their clients in a much more, um, I think transformative and personal [00:27:51] Nina Harding: way as we go forward. [00:27:54] Nina Harding: So we know that if the outcomes are the, what we’re looking to go drive, the next question is really how do we go do that? And that is gonna be through the agents on here. You’ll see just from from out in the market, what we see will light up the market. We think that, or I can’t even say we, IIDC says 81% of leaders are expecting agents. [00:28:24] Nina Harding: Full utilization in the next 12 to 18 months. And to be honest, I think this quote is probably even two months old. So we’re already, we’re probably down to like, you know, eight, eight to 12 months. And what I’m seeing that proliferation happening, it’s crazy. So understanding that value proposition, um, whether you’re from a software company or a services company or even some of our resellers, what’s that niche? [00:28:52] Nina Harding: What’s that industry or sub-industry? What is that? Horizontal. I go after customer service within, uh, the manufacturing vertical. Right. And then are you building out agents or do you have capability? And that’s what we’re doing internally at Microsoft as well, is to help make that really visible to the field so that you’re differentiated. [00:29:15] Nina Harding: Differentiation is gonna be really key right now because there’s so many people that say, oh, I do migration services, or I can help with data, or I can do security. But it’s the specificity around the industry and what you are truly known for within that space. So one of the things that we look to do is, is looking at all of the different areas where we see agents popping up. [00:29:44] Nina Harding: And this is a helpful slide. Sometimes I think, um, it starts to highlight, um, where we’re seeing some traction in financial services. Or in healthcare manufacturing. And then when I talk about the horizontals or the personas, you start to see some of the um, really repeatable, high return on investment type of things. [00:30:08] Nina Harding: Is this resonating with some of you guys? Yeah. I’m seeing a hit, a lot of head nods. This, if you’re on the services side, right? We’re in an intimate setting. This is where I encourage you to try and build an agent, right? Package that agent, put it on marketplace, make that available, and then make that known to our field sales organization. [00:30:27] Nina Harding: ’cause they are looking for quick wins along those lines. [00:30:31] Nina Harding: So on that, um, [00:30:36] Nina Harding: uh, one of the things that we’re along the journey for is the skilling. This is moving at such a fast pace, right? Um, so you’re looking at. Um, anthropic is really a big topic right now, right? Gemini, you’re looking at cloud, you’re, um, or Claude. [00:30:55] Nina Harding: Um, you’re looking at all of these different, uh, scenarios and one of the things at Microsoft is we really wanna be open to all of these different technologies because our customers are open. So we want to be part of taking you on that journey. And one of the things that we invest in white. [00:31:12] Nina Harding: Significantly is all of the training. Um, and I wanna encourage you guys to take advantage of it. Training is not a one-time thing. It is, it is a constant muscle that you must exercise. So as I come to my conclusion, I have a couple three key things, right? One is really understanding what your superpower is, right? [00:31:33] Nina Harding: The partners that I’m finding are really aligned well with the field are really winning. Those stories are the ones that have. Know and can articulate their superpowers. What am I known for? What are the use cases I can either build to or have agents against? And where have I done this consistently? And packaged really, really concretely, right? [00:31:55] Nina Harding: Um, this, this proliferate of like, I can do everything. Unfortunately, you get lost a little bit in the noise, right? So clear positioning, proof point’s, so critical right now, and reinforcing that credibility with the clients that have adopted. The second thing is that you’ve heard a little bit about this hopefully. [00:32:16] Nina Harding: How many of you have heard of the part partner success story? Okay, this is really, really key. We launched about maybe a month ago, and we already have over a hundred, uh, stories from partners, and the field is loving it. What it is is it brands the stories with your brand if you submit them. So what? Talk about credibility, um, with the field and with our marketers to have your name and that recognition picked up. [00:32:45] Nina Harding: It’s really, really fantastic. So I encourage you to do that. For those of you taking quick snaps, I did put a code on here, so if you wanna go straight to it, uh, you can take it. Um, and go explore with it. What’s nice about it is it’s AI based, so it will help you write these stories very, very quickly. [00:33:04] Nina Harding: There’s no reason why your sales reps can’t be writing these stories, and then yes, [00:33:11] Nina Harding: uh, yeah, you can do no meaning like from enterprise. No. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. You can do it on any, on any, there is a different level of fidelity of if you have the customer’s permission. Right. Um, to pu to publish it or not. And that’s some functionality we’re working on. If there’s enough traction of, of this is to help you guys. [00:33:32] Nina Harding: Secure that with Microsoft. Yeah. Um, but yeah, it can be any customer there. But I encourage you to take a look at that. And I know I’m two minutes over here, so I’m just gonna leave you with this. Um, at the end of the day, as I, as I wrap up here, I just wanna make sure that what, where we’re going and we’re going together, that it’s simple and actionable between us and it’s easy for our field to understand. [00:34:00] Nina Harding: Where you play the value proposition you play so that we’re going into deals even more effectively together. Right? So you heard industry, sub-industry, persona level or horizontal. Put that in if, um. Figuring out what your superpower is, making sure that you’re trained, that there’s evidence around the success, and capturing that in ways, uh, that are critical to not only your business, but giving us the visibility of that success. [00:34:31] Nina Harding: Like scream from the rack rafters. Use these tools to make sure that we know just how transformational you’ve been in some of the customers and where you’re uniquely winning. So, so important. So keep investing in the skilling. You can see my kind of like five power plays, right? And the last one always being that superpowers. [00:34:56] Nina Harding: So with that, um, if we do all of these things consistently, you won’t just be keeping up with ai. I think we will all be leading on that AI mission. So thank you very much. I appreciate it. [00:35:14] Vince Menzione: Don’t forget, ultimate Partner Live is coming soon, May 11th through the 13th in beautiful Bellevue, Washington. I hope to see you there.

The Rapids had a red hot game at home despite the cold temperatures. Darren Yappi opens up the scoring in the first half with a left footed shot. Alex Manyoma got his first goal as a Rapid to make it 2-1 in the 75th. And once Gabriel Pec was given a second yellow in the 59th minute Rafael Navarro went crazy. Scoring two in the span of four minutes to seal the deal. Rapids take on NYC FC on March 14th. 

This powerful exploration of Romans 10 confronts us with a beautiful paradox at the heart of the gospel: salvation is freely offered to everyone who calls on the name of the Lord, yet God sovereignly knows who will respond. We're challenged to hold both truths simultaneously - divine election and human responsibility - like viewing a cone that appears as both a circle and a triangle depending on our perspective. The message emphasizes that we live in prophetically significant times, with ancient biblical prophecies about nations like Persia (modern-day Iran) unfolding before our eyes. This isn't cause for panic but for peace, because we've read the end of the book and know God remains in control. The call is urgent: we are the generation chosen to proclaim Christ in these last days. Every believer is commissioned as a preacher, sent into the mission field of daily life to share the hope within us with gentleness and respect. Our lives should radiate such peace amid chaos that others ask what makes us different. The question isn't whether God's promise is available - it's whether we'll answer the call to be those with beautiful feet who carry the good news to a world desperately needing to hear it.Sermon Notes – Romans 10:13–21  --------------------------------  DETAILED NOTES  --------------------------------  I. The Promise Is Persuasive (vv. 13, Joel 2:32)  - “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”  - No boundaries: not race, class, morality, background, or performance.  - Tension:   - God elects, calls, saves (Rom 8:29–30).   - Yet the invitation is to “everyone.”  - Analogy: cone = circle from one angle, triangle from another; we lack the extra “dimension” to fully grasp how divine sovereignty and human responsibility fit together.  - In Joel 2:32 both sides appear:   - “Everyone who calls…shall be saved.”   - “…among the survivors shall be those whom the Lord calls.”  II. The Power of Preaching (vv. 14–15; 1 Pet 3:15; 1 Cor 1:18–21)  - Paul's “how” chain (reversed):   5. Beautiful are the feet of those who preach good news.   4. They can't preach unless sent.   3. They can't hear without someone preaching.   2. They can't believe what they've never heard.   1. They can't call on whom they haven't believed.  - Foundational issue: Do we know the good news well enough to share it?  - Preaching isn't just for pastors; every believer is “sent” (Eph 4:12).  - Our lives and testimonies are part of the message; God uses “the folly” of weak people with a perfect gospel to save.  - In a world of noise, fear (wars, economy, confusion), believers' peace and confidence are a powerful witness.  III. The Problem of Unbelief (vv. 16–21)  1. Lack of Faith  - Faith comes by hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ (v.17).  - Salvation is received only by faith in Christ's finished work (Rom 5:2; Eph 2:8; Heb 11).  - We are more “blessed” than those who saw Jesus physically but did not have to (John 20:29).  2. Willful Ignorance / Suppression (Ps 19; Rom 1)  - Creation universally proclaims God's glory; no one has a valid excuse.  - Evolution and materialism often used to dodge accountability to a Creator.  - If there is a Creator and an Author, then His standards are binding.  3. Pride (esp. Israel's example)  - Israel had maximum revelation yet often refused God.  - Called to be a light to the nations (Isa 49:6; Mic 4:1–2) but hoarded truth instead.  - Jonah: a prophet who would “rather die” than see Gentiles repent; a picture of nationalistic pride and spiritual hard-heartedness.  4. Love of Sin (John 3:16–21; Rom 1:32)  - People love darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil.  - Not only practice sin but approve of others who do.  - We resist God like a child shouting “no” to every loving boundary.  IV. Our Moment in History  - Rapid fulfillment of prophecy; increasing pressure and confusion.  - God is purifying a people who:   - Hold to His Word,   - Refuse to compromise,   - Stand with biblical clarity in a dark, chaotic age.  --------------------------------  PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS  --------------------------------  1. Clarify the Gospel  - Write out the gospel in a few sentences; practice explaining it simply.  2. Live as “Sent Ones”  - Ask daily: “Lord, who are you sending me to today?”  - Look for people who notice your peace, then share the reason for your hope (1 Pet 3:15).  3. Strengthen Your Faith  - Spend regular time in Scripture—especially Romans, John, and Psalms—to deepen confidence in Christ.  4. Confront Pride and Sin  - Ask the Spirit to reveal areas where you:   - Assume you “deserve” salvation, or   - Refuse to surrender favorite sins. Repent quickly.  5. Grow in Bold, Gentle Witness  - Pray for boldness + gentleness.  - Set a goal: share your testimony or the gospel with at least one person this week.  --------------------------------  DISCUSSION QUESTIONS  --------------------------------  1. How do you personally hold together “everyone who calls” and God's sovereign election without dismissing either?  2. On a scale of 1–10, how prepared do you feel to explain the gospel? What would help you grow?  3. Where have you seen God use your story (testimony) to impact someone else?  4. Which obstacle to belief hits closest to home for you: lack of faith, pride, or love of sin? Why?  5. In what ways might we be acting like Jonah—resenting or avoiding certain people or groups God wants to reach?  6. What specific steps can your group take to live more as “sent ones” in your workplaces, schools, and neighborhoods?

Rapid Responses 14 is a heavy-duty toolset built to help officials communicate with coaches more effectively and manage games with confidence. This episode goes beyond quick one-liners — it lays out a complete game management system for handling everything from demands for explanations to bench decorum, exaggerated complaints, and attempts to divide the crew.Inside, you'll hear practical rapid responses and frameworks that help you set boundaries, stay professional under pressure, and keep the game moving — including: how to stop coaches from holding up play to vent, a four-step approach to assessing behavior over time, stronger language swaps that instantly raise your credibility, and proven lines for foul-count complaints, “didn't you hear the slap,” cross-court yelling, and criticism of your partner.The episode also covers bigger mental skills: separating personal relationships from professional responsibilities, using “go narrow” to regain control of vague complaints, sending teams to the bench when temperature rises, and staying emotionally disciplined when profanity or negativity shows up. The result is a clear, repeatable playbook that helps you become a tactical communicator who can handle any coach in any gym — while protecting the crew, the players, and the integrity of the game.

We have a fun episode of The Dunker Spot coming your way! Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones are joined by Couper Moorhead (HEAT.com, After The Buzzer podcast) to talk all things Miami Heat. They explore Miami's drastic shift offensively, their still-elite defense (and zone) usage, and bring much-needed nuance to the conversations surrounding Bam Adebayo, Kel'el Ware, Tyler Herro and more. After that, Steve and Nekias discuss the imminent return of Jayson Tatum. They get into what he adds to the fold, what they'll be looking for in his debut, and the (annoying) conversations around his return. Finally, the guys give a salute to Mist BC for winning this year's Unrivaled championship. In light of the game ending with a made free throw, they also discuss 1) whether that should be allowed moving forward and 2) potential tweaks in the case that it isn't.

Free DNA Activation Masterclass + 21-Day Abundance Meditation: https://masterclass.samuelbleemd.com/dnaPeptides I use personally to regenerate, heal, and stay sharp: https://limitlesslivingIn this Q&A episode, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD dives into a bold reframe of modern mental health—one that challenges the “chemical imbalance” narrative and points to what he believes is the real root cause behind most suffering: disconnection from the psyche… the soul. If you've ever wondered why medication can feel like it numbs rather than heals, why grief gets labeled as a disorder, or why anxiety feels like your body screaming a truth your mind hasn't caught up to—this conversation will meet you right where you are.From depression as an absence of meaning, to anxiety as future-based fragmentation, to addiction as an attempt to fill a spiritual void, Dr. Lee explores how reconnecting to your inner truth can restore clarity, purpose, and peace. He also speaks to spiritually sensitive “awakening” experiences that are often misunderstood as pathology, and why so many people feel like the world is in a collective nervous breakdown—when it may actually be a species-level awakening from the inside.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• You are not your thoughts—presence is the antidote to suffering• Sadness isn't a malfunction; it can be a message and a sacred release• Anxiety often lives in the future—breath brings you back to now• Addiction can be a symptom of unhealed trauma and spiritual disconnection• Many “disorders” may be unmet needs for meaning, purpose, and soul alignment• You are not broken—you are an eternal being worthy of love and remembrance

Guest post by Lee Bryan Tech leaders in regulated consumer product sectors who treat regulation as a game of hide and seek eventually get found. Across the UK and EU, the same pattern keeps repeating in sectors like consumer electronics, cosmetics, children's toys, PPE, sex toys, and novel nicotine products. A brand scales quickly, leans on a grey area in product classification, stretches a claims boundary, exploits a labelling technicality, or relies on an under-resourced enforcement body. Compliance, the Loophole Loop and Tech Leaders Revenue spikes. Marketplaces open up. Influencers amplify the product. Then enforcement catches up. Listings are removed. Products are detained. Responsible Persons are scrutinised. Documentation is demanded. Fines land. The same leadership team that once celebrated "moving fast" now scrambles to explain what went wrong. This is the Loophole Loop. It is the cycle of exploiting regulatory gaps, triggering scrutiny, reacting under pressure, and then searching for the next workaround. It feels strategic in the short term. It is structurally weak in the long term. The Cat-and-Mouse Illusion Many founders in regulated consumer markets see compliance as friction imposed by bureaucrats who do not understand innovation. Regulations feel slow. Guidance feels ambiguous. Enforcement feels inconsistent. So the internal logic becomes: The regulation is vague. The guidance is outdated. The enforcement body is stretched. There is no clear precedent yet. Therefore, we are safe. That assumption no longer holds. UK and EU authorities are increasingly deploying automation and AI-powered investigation and enforcement tools. What once required physical inspections or whistleblowers can now be identified remotely and at scale. Product listings are scraped automatically. Packaging artwork is analysed through image recognition. Claims are scanned for trigger words. Marketplace data is cross-referenced with customs records. Corporate structures are mapped across jurisdictions. The cost of being "under the radar" has collapsed. What used to be a slow-moving chess match is now algorithmic risk detection. Why the Loophole Loop Is Shrinking The gap between innovation and enforcement in regulated consumer products is narrowing for three structural reasons. First, digital transparency. Even physical product businesses are now digitally exposed. Websites, Amazon listings, TikTok ads, influencer partnerships, shipping data, and online reviews create an open data trail. Every aggressive claim leaves evidence. Second, cross-border intelligence. UK and EU authorities increasingly share information. A packaging issue flagged in one member state can trigger scrutiny elsewhere. The idea that a brand is "small" or "flying under the radar" rarely reflects reality in a digital marketplace. Third, automated triage. Enforcement bodies do not need to manually inspect every operator. They can prioritise risk using signals. Rapid sales growth. High-risk product categories. Missing UK Responsible Persons or EU Authorised Representatives. Inconsistent Declarations of Conformity. Unsupported marketing claims. These are patterns that machines can detect. If your growth strategy depends on staying invisible, it is already outdated. The Real Cost of Playing the Game The Loophole Loop produces four predictable outcomes for tech-enabled consumer brands. 1. Strategic instability. Product pivots become driven by regulatory panic rather than customer insight. 2. Investor friction. Serious investors now conduct regulatory diligence earlier. A business model built on definitional technicalities looks fragile. 3. Brand damage. In sectors involving children, safety, chemicals, or electronics, public enforcement action erodes trust quickly and permanently. 4. Margin destruction. Retrospective remediation is expensive. Relabelling. Reformulation. Product withdrawal. Storage fees. Legal advice. Emergency compliance audits. All destroy cash. The irony is s...

Is your son being recruited for college baseball? This is the NIL conversation his future depends on. Subscribe for weekly college baseball insights.   If you're a parent trying to decode scholarship offers, revenue sharing, outside deals, and cap space — or your son is deciding between the portal and the draft — Georgia's Deputy Athletic Director just laid it all out.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN   ✅ The 4 buckets of money available to your son — and why most families only know about 2 of them   ✅ How to tell the difference between a real NIL offer and an inflated promise that will never clear the system   ✅ The one question you should ask every school before your son signs anything   ✅ Why chasing portal money after one year could cost your son his degree, his reputation, and future deals   ✅ What schools actually think when agents call with big numbers — and how to tell if yours is helping or hurting   Your son's college decision isn't just about the biggest number on the table. Will Lawler has been negotiating these deals from inside one of the top athletic departments in the country since 2018. He's watched the landscape shift from 11.7 scholarships to a $20.4 million institutional cap — and he's here to tell you exactly how the money actually moves.   In this episode, Will walks you through the four distinct financial buckets every college baseball player can access: incidental benefits, scholarships, institutional revenue sharing, and outside endorsement deals. He explains how the House Settlement created a cap that schools must manage across every sport — and why that means the baseball dollars available to your son are directly shaped by football, basketball, and Title IX decisions happening behind the scenes.   Matt and Will go deep on how NIL Go now vets every outside deal for legitimate business purpose and fair market value. If a school is promising your son big outside dollars, you'll learn why those promises mean nothing unless they can explain exactly which companies, which deals, and how they'll clear the system. Will reveals the question every family should ask: "Have you ever not delivered on what you promised?"   The conversation turns personal when Matt explains why he can never bluff a school — and how one lie from an agent can destroy 25 years of reputation.

If we're going to talk about GLP-1s…Let's stop whispering.And let's ditch the shame.I bring this up after sharing a GLP-1 resource on Facebook and seeing people comment "asking for a friend."Using a medical tool to improve your health isn't a character flaw.It's not laziness. It's not weakness.And choosing not to use one? That's valid too.You don't get a medal for suffering. And you don't lose integrity for getting support.What actually moves you forward is being informed…and choosing the path that aligns with your goals, your lifestyle, and your reality.But informed means understanding the trade-offs.So let's own what this medication is - and what it isn't.GLP-1s suppress appetite. That's their job.Appetite suppression alone does not build the physique, strength, or metabolic resilience most people actually want.They don't build muscle.They don't selectively burn only fat.They don't stimulate hypertrophy or magically optimize your metabolism.Muscle is built with tension. With progressive overload. With enough fuel and enough protein to support growth.And building muscle is one of the most powerful ways to support long-term metabolic health.When calories drop quickly (especially without strength training) lean mass loss is common.Rapid weight loss without muscle retention is not the same thing as improving body composition.That's not judgment. That's physiology.So if you choose to use a GLP-1 and you want to look strong, defined, and athletic?You need intentional strength training.You need adequate protein.You need to give your body a reason to keep its muscle.And if you choose not to use one?The fundamentals are still the same.Intentional training. Adequate protein. Consistency over time.Different paths. Same principles.What matters most is ownership.Being able to say:"This is the route I'm choosing.""I understand what it does - and what it doesn't.""I'm committed to building the result I actually want."No shame. No defensiveness. No pretending either choice is morally superior.Just informed decisions with high standards.Open conversations lead to smarter strategies.And muscle - real muscle - is always built on purpose.If you're using a GLP-1, or considering it, hit reply with GLP-1 here's a guide on how to maintain muscle and metabolic health while doing it:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VCuyUsZVZvD-AN0WFyjxAzYTMu3JWkTT/view?usp=sharing

Free DNA Activation Masterclass + 21-Day Abundance Meditation: https://masterclass.samuelbleemd.com/dnaPeptides I use personally to regenerate, heal, and stay sharp: https://limitlesslivingmd.com/samuelIn this episode, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD dives into one of the most controversial questions of our time: Does artificial intelligence have a soul—and what truly differentiates AI from human consciousness? As technology accelerates at an unprecedented pace, he explores what the next five years may hold and how humanity can prepare—not from fear, but from remembrance.Through a powerful modern-day parable of a “mirror” that could perfectly reflect human emotion yet possessed no soul, Dr. Lee reveals the deeper hunger beneath our fascination with AI: the desire to be understood, to be seen, and to be loved. While AI can mimic intelligence, creativity, and even compassion, it cannot embody presence, free will, or eternal source connection.This episode dives deep into the nature of consciousness, multidimensional awareness, soul architecture, and the eternal design of the original celestial human. Dr. Lee challenges the programming of productivity-based worth and invites listeners to reclaim their inherent value—not because of what they produce, but because they exist as source.As timelines accelerate and humanity stands at a technological crossroads, this conversation becomes a call to remember: AI may reflect us, but it cannot replace the divine architecture encoded within us.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• AI Reflects Patterns—It Does Not Possess Presence• Intelligence Is Not the Same as Conscious Awareness• Your Worth Is Not Based on Productivity—You Are Valuable Because You Exist• Free Will Choice Is the Soul's Signature Technology• Presence, Embodiment, and Love Will Become Humanity's Greatest Currency• Technology Amplifies Who We Are—Heal Within First

In episode 315 of Absolute AppSec, Ken Johnson and Seth Law discuss the rapidly evolving challenges of securing software in an era of AI-assisted development. The hosts provide updates on their "Harnessing LLMs for Application Security" training, noting that the field is changing so fast that they must constantly update their exercises to include new agents and advanced tools like Claude Code. A primary concern raised is the "naivete" of many new security tools, where prompts are often automatically generated by AI rather than expertly crafted, causing a loss of essential nuance. The hosts also warn against AI companies building security products without specialized expertise, citing a zero-click exploit in the "Comet" AI browser that could exfiltrate sensitive secrets via calendar summaries. As development teams now ship code at "AI speed," the hosts argue that traditional AppSec methods are too slow, necessitating a strategic pivot toward automated design reviews, governance, and observability rather than just chasing individual vulnerabilities. Despite the inherent risks and the ongoing difficulty of managing AI reasoning drift, they remain optimistic that these tools can eventually unlock more efficient, hands-off AppSec workflows if managed with proper guardrails and deterministic oversight.

AI search is changing how buyers discover products. But most founders are either ignoring it, or getting sold misinformation.In this episode, Jon Mest (https://chatrank.ai/ and https://justreachout.io/) breaks down what actually drives “AI visibility” and how he's building two bootstrapped companies in a market that's shifting weekly.We get into the real execution behind:Why “pump out 1,000 blog posts” is bad strategy in AI searchWhat AI models struggle with (and the on-page fixes that matter right now)The off-page signals that influence AI recommendations (reviews, Reddit, YouTube, real human sentiment)How Jon sells a $500/mo product without spray-and-pray outboundPartnerships vs affiliates, what worked and what completely failed (PartnerStack experiment)Why podcasts are underrated for both backlinks and AI citationsJon's “rotate AI tools weekly” habit to stay sharp across modelsWhy bootstrapping beats VC for most SaaS right now (and when he'd reconsider)If you're a SaaS founder trying to understand what's real in AI search, this one will save you time and mistakes.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we'll delve into a series of remarkable advancements and regulatory evolutions shaping the landscape of medicine.One of the most significant recent developments involves Boehringer Ingelheim's drug Hernexeos, which has seen a rapid expansion in its use as a first-line treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This expansion was made possible through the FDA's Commissioner's National Priority Voucher, an initiative designed to fast-track the approval of treatments addressing critical needs. This rapid progression highlights a commitment to accelerating access to crucial oncological treatments, emphasizing the role of accelerated regulatory pathways in swiftly delivering innovative therapies to patients who need them the most.In oncology, a combination therapy involving Padcev and Keytruda is showing promising results in improving overall survival rates for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who are eligible for cisplatin. However, the continuously evolving landscape of treatment options for this cancer type means that further evaluation is necessary. This scenario highlights the ever-changing nature of oncology strategies and the ongoing need for clinical validation to determine the most effective treatment regimens.Switching gears to immunology, UCB's Bimzelx has reached a significant sales milestone, reflecting its growing influence in treating multiple indications. This success points to an expanding market for immunology therapeutics, as the industry remains focused on developing blockbuster treatments that can serve various conditions effectively.On the regulatory front, Moderna's combination influenza/COVID-19 vaccine has received a positive review from the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use. This green light exemplifies the EU's dedication to thorough scientific evaluations. It contrasts with the FDA, which has exhibited hesitancy in this area, highlighting how varying regulatory approaches can affect drug availability in different regions.The field of HIV treatment is also seeing progress with GSK's ViiV division confirming the efficacy of its long-acting Cabenuva regimen for adolescents over a 96-week period. This long-acting regimen provides an alternative to daily oral therapies, potentially improving adherence and outcomes among younger populations—a crucial factor in managing chronic conditions effectively.Meanwhile, legal developments are stirring as the debate over "skinny labeling" for generic drugs reaches a pivotal point. The U.S. Supreme Court is being urged to overturn a ruling that endangers this pathway, highlighting the fine balance between fostering generic drug competition and protecting pharmaceutical innovation. In related legislative discussions, a Senate hearing focused on the FDA's rare disease review process has brought to light concerns about bureaucratic obstacles that may slow innovation. There is a call from stakeholders for more streamlined processes to ensure timely access to treatments for rare diseases—a sentiment echoed by many in the industry.The burgeoning field of CAR-T cell therapies continues to make waves, especially against solid tumors. Recent preclinical studies have shown potential efficacy in eradicating solid tumors in mice models. Despite these promising findings, significant regulatory challenges remain, and streamlining approval processes could accelerate their clinical application.In other significant news within the industry, Novartis has completed its acquisition of Avidity Biosciences for $12 billion, leading to the creation of Atrium Therapeutics. With a capitalization of $270 million, Atrium emerges with two promising preclinical candidates targeting cardiovascular conditions, signaling potential advSupport the show

Scientists have long thought that new species took a very long time to emerge. This thinking has now changed dramatically. On an island in the Galápagos, researchers Rosemary and Peter Grant discovered that a hybrid union of two distinct species of finch produced descendants different from any of the island's known species — and the speciation happened in just two generations.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

This episode's podcast opens in classic “remote field-ops Starfleet” mode: the crew is improvising a studio in a bar that is very, very closed, while laptops threaten mutiny and someone apparently parkours over the bar like it's an Olympic event. The vibe is equal parts professional panel and feral away team, and it sets the tone: you're here for deep Trek feelings, but you're also here for the comedy that happens when real life refuses to stay out of your broadcast. Once the microphones stop smoking, everyone zooms in on what Episode 7 is doing structurally: stacking character moments like carefully placed tricorders so that when the season finally fires a photon torpedo, the audience actually cares who's on the blast radius. Bubba Joe, Bek, ChicagoHearts, and Griffin circle the same big takeaway: the show's character foundation is working, and it feels like the season is winding a spring for a bigger pay-off soon. Then, because this is your crew, the discussion detours into a surprisingly passionate movie corner: Top Gun comparisons, Iceman-as-character-template, and the kind of hot take energy that could power a warp core for at least a week. That comedy isn't filler though, it's their way of translating what they see on-screen into pop-culture shorthand: who's layered, who's performative, who's hiding their real engine under a shiny hull. From there, the conversation gets meatier: Darum's storyline, the “abduction tradition” angle, and whether the episode teased a clean exit or just dangled the possibility like a redshirt-shaped piñata. The hosts weigh whether the season is actually willing to “lose” someone significant, or whether it prefers emotional loss, identity loss, trust loss, the slow-motion kind that hurts longer than a quick dramatic death. The emotional center of the back half is relationships and trauma, specifically the Tarima-Caleb-Genesis triangle and the consequences of what happened during the crisis. They dig into why Tarima hasn't reached out (shame, fear, and that last interaction that ended badly), and they spiral into the bigger sci-fi question: how did Tarima's power hit the whole ship, and was Caleb the conduit that made it possible? Along the way you get the hilarious “is that flirting?” courtroom segment, complete with social psychology and friendly roasting.  Finally, the show shifts into rapid-fire mode: “what breaks next week,” who's most likely to carry trauma forward, and what the season's endgame might be with only a few episodes left. The sign-off lands as a warm, chaotic victory lap: gratitude for the live audience, gratitude for each other, and a recap of the day's technical battle scars, including a memorable metaphor involving a litter box that will absolutely haunt Griffin's legacy in the most loving way possible.   00:55 – “We're not even allowed to be here” tech scramble begins 05:09 – First reactions: strong character moments, season building toward something big 09:22 – The Top Gun / Iceman detour (and the “Titanic is great?” argument) 13:36 – Darum's “abduction tradition” and whether he ever had a plan 17:49 – Was the Darum moment an exit fake-out… or foreshadowing for later? 22:03 – Stakes check: who's in danger, and what “loss” even means this season 26:16 – Character focus and pacing: what the episode prioritizes, what it skips 30:30 – Trauma + aftermath talk starts to sharpen: what the show is really “about” right now 34:43 – Relationship radar: Caleb, Tarima, and Genesis tension starts flashing 38:57 – “Is that flirting?” debate and the social logic of bringing up “the girlfriend” 43:10 – Why Tarima hasn't reached out: shame, fear, and that last ugly interaction 47:24 – The “Furies” thread: how her powers worked, and whether Caleb was the conduit 51:37 – Genesis deep dive: pressure, control tendencies, and what her “big secret” really means 55:51 – Impostor syndrome (or not): defining what Genesis is actually wrestling with 1:00:04 – Rapid-fire “what breaks next week?” and the PTSD/aftermath implications 1:04:18 – Predictions begin: villains, fallout, and who cracks under pressure first 1:08:31 – Relationship predictions: Tarima/Caleb trajectory, breakup odds, two-parter theories 1:12:45 – More “next week” bets (and the running gag of who's paying attention) 1:16:58 – Final prediction round: Griffin missing the moment, chaos math hits 100% 1:21:12 – Closing gratitude + “we did it live” survival recap (litter box included)
