Host Natalie Grueninger speaks with Dr David Grummitt about the December 1460 events commonly called the Battle of Wakefield. Dr Grummitt argues the episode was a small ambush and murder of Richard, Duke of York and his son rather than a large pitched battle, and explains the primary evidence behind this interpretation. The episode also covers the immediate Lancastrian response, the march to the Palm Sunday battles of 1461, and how later Tudor chroniclers and historians transformed these events into a more dramatic mythology.

What happens when a beekeeper with a zoology background, a manufacturing business, and a tendency to question conventional wisdom starts redesigning beekeeping equipment? In this episode, Jeff Ott and Becky Masterman welcome Michael Mahar of 21st Bee, an Arkansas beekeeper and manufacturer who has spent years developing his own approach to bees, equipment, and even value-added honey. Michael explains how frustration with assembling and repairing conventional frames led him to design an injection-molded plastic frame intended to withstand years of abuse. He discusses communication passages built into the frames, multiple cell sizes, drone foundation, small-cell foundation, and the practical considerations behind his designs. The conversation then moves into more controversial territory: Michael's small-cell, treatment-free approach to Varroa management. Michael describes the selection process behind his locally adapted colonies, his unusual use of drone brood, and why he believes small-cell comb is only one component of a much larger management system. Becky adds important perspective on the research surrounding cell size and Varroa, while the group emphasizes that management strategies must account for location, colony genetics, neighboring beekeepers, and individual goals. Then things take a completely different turn. Michael reveals his painstaking process for producing bourbon-infused honey using carefully selected bourbon-soaked oak, different char and toast levels, temperature cycling, and months of tasting and adjustment. Frames, Varroa, genetics, bourbon and honey—this conversation covers a remarkable amount of ground.

Send us Fan MailWhen is surfactant "early," and when is it too early, or too late? In this second installment of our two-part series with the Neonatal Resuscitation Symposium, Ben Courchia sits down with Dr. Roger Soll, a leading voice in surfactant research since the 1980s, to trace how our thinking on timing has evolved, from aggressive prophylactic dosing to selective rescue therapy to today's less invasive approaches like LISA and SALSA. Dr. Soll unpacks why head-to-head trials keep favoring less invasive administration over InSurE, and how the rise of "nanopreemies" is quietly pulling the pendulum back toward earlier treatment. The conversation also touches on video laryngoscopy and aerosolized surfactant's unfulfilled promise. A candid, technically rich conversation for anyone who has stood at a warmer wondering whether, and when, to reach for surfactant. Dr. Soll expands on these themes at the Neonatal Resuscitation Symposium, September 10 to 11, 2026, at Indiana University School of Medicine.

Education On Fire - Sharing creative and inspiring learning in our schools
Lisa Pinkerton is Head of Education at Widget, a symbols-based communication software company, and a former deputy headteacher, inclusion lead, and NPQ SENCO course facilitator with 26 years in primary education.Lisa makes the case for SENCOs sitting on the senior leadership team, not as a bolt-on role but as a strategic voice shaping decisions from the outset. With over 1.7 million pupils in England currently identified as having SEND, she argues inclusion has shifted from a specialist issue to a leadership one, and explains why designing environments for the child who needs the most support tends to benefit every child in the room.We talk through the shift from a medical to a social model of disability, the "curb-cut effect" as a way of thinking about universal design in classrooms, why visual scaffolds like Widget's symbols work best when they're everyday practice rather than reserved for a few pupils, and why real inclusion means being willing to let a sparkly pink pencil sit next to standard ones. Lisa also shares a powerful story of a pupil whose severe dyslexia had been masked as behavioural difficulty, and how embedding visual support into ordinary classroom life changed his trajectory.Takeaways:Inclusion must be embedded within the decision-making processes of educational institutions, not treated as an afterthought.The integration of symbols and visual aids can significantly enhance communication and comprehension for all students.Effective educational leadership requires the inclusion lead to have a strategic role within the senior leadership team.The approach to education should prioritize the individual learning journey of each student, fostering their unique strengths and needs.Chapters:00:03 - Introduction to Lisa Pinkerton and Widget04:17 - The Importance of Inclusion in Education20:40 - The Need for Flexibility in Educational Practices36:23 - The Curb Cut Effect in Education39:51 - Creating Accessible Classrooms: The Importance of Inclusionhttps://www.widgit.com/https://www.facebook.com/widgitsoftware26https://www.instagram.com/widgitsoftwarehttps://www.linkedin.com/company/widgit-software/
On today's Legally Speaking Podcast, I am delighted to be joined by Matthew Claughton.Matthew is the Managing Director of Olliers Solicitors, one of the UK's leading criminal defence firms. Since taking full control of the business in 2018, he has helped steer Olliers through a major period of growth, quadrupling turnover, strengthening its reputation in privately funded criminal defence, and building a firm widely recognised for its expertise in pre-charge engagement, serious crime, fraud, regulatory work and crisis management. He is ranked as a Leading Partner by The Legal 500, has been recognised as the Legal 500 Northern Powerhouse Criminal Lawyer of the Year, and is widely regarded as one of the standout names in high-stakes criminal defence.But this conversation is about more than rankings and results. It is about what really makes an outstanding criminal defence firm today. How do you build a practice around preventing charges, not just winning at trial? How do you lead through growth without losing standards? And what does it take to stay independent, ambitious and trusted in one of the most pressured areas of legal practice? So why should you be listening in? You can hear Rob and Matthew discussing:- Preventing Charges Through Proactive Defence- Quadrupling Turnover with Strategic Leadership- Client-First Culture Driving Sustained Growth- Developing Future Criminal Defence Talent- Calm Judgment Under Intense Pressure.Connect with Mathew Claughton here - https://uk.linkedin.com/in/matthewclaughton
Joanna Nathan, CEO and co-founder of Prana Surgical, adjunct professor at Rice University and a former MedTech investor who spent years at the J&J MedTech Center for Device Innovation before crossing over into building herself. Her company recently secured FDA clearance for the Prana System, a tissue-sparing platform rethinking how early stage lung cancer is diagnosed and treated.In this episode, Joanna shares the deeply personal story behind her move from investing back into operating, having lost her four year old son in 2021 and wanting proximity to patient impact rather than evaluating innovation from the sidelines. It is an honest and moving conversation about what actually drives someone to take on a decade-long mission.We get into what she learned watching hundreds of pitches from the investor seat, why a no is very often about portfolio construction and timing rather than the quality of your idea, and why a fundraising pitch is a vision document backed by evidence rather than a journal article. Joanna then breaks down the problem Prana is solving, why removing large portions of lung for a tiny early stage nodule is no longer justifiable and how the system is right-sized for the level of risk these smaller lesions present.We also explore the changing face of lung cancer, the rise of never smokers now approaching one in three patients, why the disease is getting younger and more female, the role of mobile screening in rural areas and where AI genuinely helps rather than replaces clinical judgement. Joanna closes with hard-won advice for anyone thinking about founding a company and why community is what carries you through.Timestamps[00:01:38] From Research to Investing to Building: The Path Back to Operating[00:03:33] Why a No From an Investor Is Rarely About Your Idea[00:05:29] Why a Pitch Is a Vision Document Not a Journal Article[00:07:16] The Problem With Early Stage Lung Cancer Surgery Today[00:09:22] The Rise of Never Smokers and a Disease That Is Changing Fast[00:11:03] Why Women Under 50 Now Face Higher Lung Cancer Rates[00:13:18] Getting Creative on Access: Mobile CT Screening in Rural Areas[00:17:21] AI in MedTech: Assisting Clinical Judgement Not Replacing It[00:19:22] How Houston Became an Unlikely MedTech Powerhouse[00:24:06] Who Should Not Become a Founder and the Decade-Long QuestionConnect with Joanna - linkedin.com/in/joannacnathan/Learn more about Prana Surgical - https://www.pranasurgical.com/Get in touch with Karandeep Badwal - https://www.linkedin.com/in/karandeepbadwal/ Follow Karandeep on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@KarandeepBadwalMedical device training courses delivered by Karandeep through Bywater - https://www.bywater.co.uk/
In this episode of the Beyond Retirement podcast, Jacquie Doucette speaks with corporate anthropologist Dr. Andi Simon about why retirement is far more complex than simply leaving work. Drawing on decades of research and interviews, Dr. Simon explains how retirement often creates an identity gap between who we were during our careers and who we are becoming next.The conversation explores how people navigate this transition, why freedom without structure can feel draining, and how curiosity, community, and intentional design can help retirees build meaningful lives beyond their careers.Key Topics CoveredRetirement as a cultural and identity transitionWhy freedom without structure can feel unexpectedly drainingThe stages of retirement: honeymoon, awakening, and restructuringThe importance of curiosity and experimentation after leaving workHow retirees rebuild purpose and communityHow organizations could better prepare employees for retirementTImestamps00:00 Introduction and what a corporate anthropologist studies04:00 Why retirement is such a complex cultural transition11:00 What successful retirement transitions have in common18:00 Curiosity, identity, and asking the deeper “why” questions22:00 What organizations could do differently about retirement25:00 Reframing retirement as a stage of becoming33:00 Advice for people struggling with the transitionGuest Links:Website: https://www.andisimon.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andisimonBook: Rethink Retirement, https://www.amazon.com/dp/1636184278READY TO RAMP UP YOUR RETIREMENT JOURNEY?Start here: https://beyondretirement.ca/start-here/Book a FREE call with Jacquie: https://calendly.com/jacquiedoucette/discoveryCheck out the Beyond Retirement Library: https://placeforbooks.com**************Don't forget to check out Aging With Purpose and Passion.

A.M. Edition for July 31. Earnings from AI hyperscalers this week showed rising demand for their cloud services, with Amazon's CEO forecasting corporate AI use was still in its ‘early stages.' But as EY's Dan Diasio tells us, rising token costs are leading many businesses to question their broader AI approach. Plus, the U.S. says Hamas has agreed to a broad plan to disarm in exchange for an eventual Israeli withdrawal from Gaza. And WSJ reporter Margherita Stancati describes how the arrival of thousands of migrants into the Spanish territory of Ceuta from neighboring Morocco is piling political pressure on the center-left government in Madrid.

Biopharmaceutical manufacturing processes are becoming more complex, prompting manufacturers to evaluate filtration based on its impact across the entire process rather than as a standalone unit operation. Filtration decisions can influence everything from system footprint and flow performance to integration complexity, product recovery, and overall operational efficiency. Growing emphasis on sustainability and yield is also leading manufacturers to examine hidden inefficiencies. In this episode of Off Script, sponsored by Saint-Gobain Critical Process Solutions, we spoke with Hannah Hertrick, market development manager of Filtration Products at Saint-Gobain Critical, about how filtration is evolving into a system-level optimization opportunity. The conversation explores why filtration decisions increasingly extend beyond membrane performance, how filter design and connectivity can simplify system integration, and why manufacturers are taking a more holistic approach to improving process efficiency. Hertrick also discusses the challenge of holdup volume in high-value biologics, the impact of hidden product losses on yield and cost of goods, and the overall importance of reducing system complexity and improving product recovery.
What if a law firm looked less like a traditional office and more like a creative studio?That question helped shape Gardner Skelton PLLC, where colorful murals, collaborative workspaces, office dogs and a renovated former chocolate factory reflect founder and CEO Nicole Gardner's belief that better environments create better lawyers.

HR professionals have a huge opportunity to shape how, why and when AI is used across their organisations.Because AI is not only changing technology. It is changing jobs, skills, teams, management and the way work gets done. And HR is uniquely placed to make sure those changes work for both the organisation and its people.In this episode of HR Coffee Time, Fay is joined by People Consultant Charlotte Goulding to explore how HR professionals can help shape successful AI adoption across their organisations.Charlotte explains why HR should not wait to be invited into conversations about AI and shares how her Five People Foundations Framework can help organisations put the right people foundations in place as work changes.Together, Fay and Charlotte explore what each of these foundations means in practice, including why traditional job descriptions may no longer be enough, why managers will become even more important and how performance, recognition and HR operations may need to evolve.Charlotte also explains how HR can help organisations make thoughtful decisions about AI while keeping people, trust and culture at the heart of them.In This Episode, You'll Learn:Why HR shouldn't wait to be invited into conversations about AIThe difference between “AI for HR” and “HR for AI”How the Five People Foundations work togetherWhy skills and capabilities could become more useful than job descriptionsHow managers can support people through AI-related changeHow performance, recognition and HR operations may need to adaptChapters[0:00] Introduction: Why HR must lead AI adoption[2:01] Welcome, Charlotte Goulding[2:24] HR for AI, not just AI for HR[4:41] From pandemic hero to recent criticism[6:31] How the Five Foundations framework came about[10:42] Overview: The Five People Foundations[11:35] Foundation 1: Identity[15:34] Example: Values in your AI hiring process[19:13] Foundation 2: Clarity[23:28] Applying skills-based roles in HR[26:31] OKRs and quarterly goal-setting[28:05] Foundation 3: Enablement[29:12] Managers: the most overlooked foundation[36:51] Foundation 4: Recognition[39:01] Rethinking career progression and rewards[40:42] Foundation 5: Operations[42:22] Mapping your most critical processes[43:38] Working with Charlotte[45:37] Book recommendations[47:05] Wrap-up and outroUseful LinksConnect with Fay on LinkedInLearn about Fay's Essential HR PlannerLearn about Fay's Inspiring HR Leadership ProgrammeComplete Charlotte's free Five People Foundations diagnostic.Visit Charlotte's website: The People ThreadConnect with Charlotte Goulding on LinkedInBooks Recommended in This EpisodeHR Disrupted by Lucy AdamsBuilt for People by Jessica ZwaanHelpful Episodes to Listen to NextEp 164: Becoming More Strategic as an HR Team: Three Ways OKRs Can HelpEp 166: The Biggest HR Strategy Mistake and How to Fix It, with Dean CorbettEp 172: How One Company Helped Employees Embrace AI, with Laura MaffucciEp 173: How to Build a Better Workplace Culture (So People Thrive at Work), with Aoife O'BrienEnjoyed This Episode?

Last week, the government announced a 20% cut in business rates for pubs, clubs and music venues from April. These spaces are increasingly used for coffee mornings, parent and toddler groups, book clubs etc. - the new church hall for many - and they've become a really important "third space" for communities especially for groups that support women. The government has said it wants to protect these venues that are the beating heart of many communities. But is this announcement enough to save an industry that has taken a big economic battering in recent years? Joining Kylie Pentelow, Beverley Whitrick, Chief Executive of the Music Venues Trust, sociologist Dr Lisa McKenzie and 22-year-old pub landlady Elsa Mckenna, who's trying to make exactly this model work.Actor Vicky Krieps is known best to UK audiences for acclaimed performances in films including Corsage and the Academy Award winning film Phantom Thread. She has also appeared in many European films including Hanna, Two Lives, and The Chambermaid Lynn. Vicky joins Kylie Pentelow to discuss her latest film, Love Me Tender, a moving and powerful drama about a mother forced to fight for her relationship with her son after choosing to live openly as a gay woman. The film, directed by Anna Cazenave Cambet and based on Constance Debré's novel, is out in UK cinemas early next month.Campaigners who work with women to encourage them to report crime are concerned that the Early Release Scheme proposed by the government could put them off engaging with the justice system altogether. Andy Burnham has since announced a pause and a review of the scheme, which would have seen around 700 prisoners released from September. Today we hear from a campaigner, herself a survivor of sexual abuse, who fears the policy and the current uncertainty. 'Sam' (not her real name) reported and helped secure the conviction of the man who violently attacked and raped her 23 years ago. A month ago, before the scheme was paused, she received a letter from the Ministry of Justice warning that her attacker would be released early. She joins us alongside Harriet Wistrich, Director of the Centre for Women's Justice.New analysis on mummies of Egyptian princesses shows they were warriors not just pampered queens with the signs pointing to them being highly skilled archers. They even carried wounds consistent with those made by daggers at close combat. It's an intriguing finding but perhaps an even bigger question is why discoveries like this still have the power to surprise us. We delve into how much of history is shaped not just by the evidence itself but by the assumptions we bring to it. Historian, broadcaster and author Bettany Hughes, whose new children's book explores the lives of people in Ancient Egypt, joins Kylie along with Professor of History Olivette Otele.Presenter: Kylie Pentelow Producer: Simon Richardson

AI isn't facing a compute problem—it's facing an infrastructure problem. Every breakthrough in artificial intelligence, electrification and clean energy depends on critical minerals, yet the real challenge is extracting them sustainably and economically.In this episode, Mohammad Doostmohammadi, Founder & CEO of PH7 Technologies, shares how his company is transforming the recovery of critical minerals through a closed-loop process that dramatically reduces water use, eliminates wastewater and unlocks value from low-grade ores and mine waste. He also discusses the realities of commercialising deep-tech, navigating the mining industry's appetite for innovation, and why building the right team—not just the right technology—is what ultimately determines success.

Most cider makers dream of expanding their barrel program. Jason Lummen did the opposite. In Episode 510, Ria Windcaller visits The People's Cider Company in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where Jason explains why he shifted from barrel-aged ciders to dry, sessionable ciders that keep people coming back for another round. Along the way, they discuss local apples, pub culture, changing American tastes, and what it means to build a cidery around community rather than complexity.

What if the future of fundraising isn't about finding the perfect answer—but about creating space to ask better questions?In this episode of Nonprofit Nation, Julia Campbell sits down with longtime nonprofit leader and innovator Tim Sarrantonio, founder of the Generosity Spectrum, to explore a new approach to professional development, generosity, and community learning. Together, they discuss why nonprofits need more opportunities to practice difficult decisions, build trust, and learn collaboratively rather than simply consuming more information. Tim shares the inspiration behind the Generosity Spectrum and its flagship experience, the Generosity Roundtable an interactive, scenario-based learning environment where nonprofit professionals navigate real-world challenges through storytelling, role-play, and peer discussion. Instead of focusing on finding a single "right" answer, participants develop the judgment, empathy, and confidence needed to lead in an increasingly complex nonprofit landscape. Julia and Tim also explore how AI, social media, and rapid technological change are reshaping the nonprofit sector, why trust is becoming one of the organization's most valuable assets, and what joyful, community-centered learning can look like for today's nonprofit leaders. Whether you're a fundraiser, nonprofit marketer, executive director, or simply passionate about building stronger communities, this conversation offers a refreshing perspective on practicing generosity in uncertain times. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Tim founded the Generosity Spectrum and the challenges it aims to solve. How the Generosity Roundtable uses storytelling, role-play, and collaborative learning to strengthen nonprofit leadership. Why traditional professional development often falls short—and what can work better. The connection between generosity, trust, and thriving communities. Lessons nonprofits can borrow from industries like medicine and aviation, where professionals practice difficult decisions before facing them in real life. How AI, social media, and emerging technology are changing the way nonprofits engage supporters. Why creating safe spaces to experiment, reflect, and learn together is critical for the future of the sector. What attendees can expect from the Generosity Roundtable at this year's Nonprofit Social Media Summit.About Tim SarrantonioTim Sarrantonio is the founder of Generosity Spectrum, an initiative dedicated to helping nonprofit professionals learn, connect, and grow through collaborative experiences. A longtime leader in the fundraising and nonprofit technology space, Tim has spent his career exploring the intersection of generosity, storytelling, and innovation.Through projects like the Generosity Roundtable, he is creating new ways for nonprofit practitioners to build judgment, empathy, and stronger relationships by practicing real-world scenarios in a collaborative environment. His work encourages nonprofit leaders to embrace curiosity, strengthen trust, and navigate an ever-evolving sector with confidence and community.

What if your greatest breakthroughs aren't waiting in your mind ... but in your heart?In this deeply personal conversation, I'm welcoming back Johanna Bloom for an exploration of what happened after a Heart Healing session transformed the way Johanna relates to money, intuition, and herself.What begins as a conversation about writing and publishing unfolds into something so much deeper.Together, we're exploring the intelligence of the heart, subconscious healing + re-wiring, spirituality beyond certainty, animal communication, the gift economy, and why so many of us have been taught to trust our minds more than our own inner knowing.This episode is a conversation that explores the wisdom of your heart and invites you to discover what it already knows.In this episode, we explore:Why insight alone doesn't always create lasting transformation.The subconscious belief that kept Johanna's income capped for years.How Heart Healing and hypnosis helped release a pattern hidden beneath conscious awareness.Why the beliefs that limit us aren't always rooted in fear.The surprising role metaphors play in subconscious healing.What it feels like to experience Angelic Reiki for the very first time.The symbolism of the sparrow and the unexpected ways Spirit communicates.Growing beyond religious conditioning while honoring what was meaningful.Why silence creates space for deeper wisdom to emerge.The difference between living from the mind and living from the heart.What research is beginning to reveal about the heart's intelligence. :)How intuition becomes easier to trust when your nervous system feels safe.Why fun may be one of the most overlooked spiritual practices!Rethinking abundance through the lens of the gift economy.What becomes possible when we begin relating to one another through generosity instead of scarcity.How healing creates ripple effects that extend far beyond the original intention.Whether you're curious about hypnosis, the subconscious mind, intuition, or simply long for a life that feels more spacious, connected, and alive, this conversation offers a loving invitation to explore a different way of knowing.Because sometimes your heart already knows what your mind is still trying to figure out!
I had a great chat with Rose and Adam on a cold winter's day in July, and this warm and friendly duo came to our conversation well prepared. Just over 20 years ago, they made the move from Israel to Ōtautahi Christchurch. They joined KiwiSaver early, eventually bought a home of their own, and continued investing in both the sharemarket and residential property. Mindfulness is also central to their lives. Their daily meditation practice and Zen philosophy have taught them to let go of drama, avoid dwelling on setbacks and view mistakes as opportunities to learn. That perspective is particularly valuable now as they chase down FIRE and rethink their investment strategy. While some of their investments are doing extremely well, others are performing extremely poorly. After eight years of owning rental properties, they have accepted that the strategy has not worked for them. They are now steadily untangling themselves from those investments and redirecting their money towards share investments they better understand and believe in. Throughout their relationship, they have always lived within their means and spent less than they earn. Combined with their mindfulness practice, that habit allows them to view past mistakes as tuition fees rather than failures: take the lesson, make a better decision and move forward.
Hey friends! On this episode, I welcome back my friend and mentor Dustin Willis. We have a candid conversation about Dustin's time in the NBA and the peaks and valleys that came with it. He shares his own story of how quickly he went from living out his dream to being an outside observer of it. It is the business of sports, unfortunately. This is one aspect of elite sports medicine that doesn't get talked about enough and I'm so proud to share this conversation with you guys.

Executive editor Jack O'Brien first met Wendy Lund, an honoree from our Pinnacle Awards and Women of Distinction program, in September of 2022. Lund had just left her position as CEO of Agency 100 honoree GCI Health to serve as chief client officer for health and wellness at WPP. Now in her new post as CEO of Stagwell-owned agency Allison, Lund joins this week's podcast for an in-person interview with reporter Bella Czajkowski. Lund dives into a recent HarrisX–Allison Worldwide study on how GLP-1s are reshaping attitudes toward weight loss and care. The report was released late last month and chief among its numerous findings was the observation that GLP-1s have moved firmly into the mainstream, though the public conversation around them remains split between medical breakthrough and moral judgment. As Wendy told Bella, “culture is shaping health, but health is also shaping culture.” And for our Trends segment, O'Brien and Czajkowski are joined by editor-at-large Steve Madden for a conversation on all that went down during the FDA's recent two-day advisory panel focused on peptides.

Join us for a live Q&A with Dr. Ben Bikman here.For the 100th episode of The Metabolic Link, Ben Bikman, PhD, professor of cell biology and physiology at Brigham Young University and author of Why We Get Sick, returns for a milestone conversation with co-hosts Dominic D'Agostino, PhD, and Victoria Field. Together, they examine what clinicians are measuring, what conventional approaches may be missing, and how the science of metabolic health continues to evolve.Bikman argues that the clinical picture of metabolic health remains glucose-centric and lipid-heavy while the earliest signal, elevated insulin, goes unmeasured. He explains why women stay insulin sensitive at far higher body fat than men and what menopause takes away, why visceral fat is misunderstood, and how a fatty liver can be miscounted as lean mass on a DEXA scan. That last point is why he now says he was wrong about GLP-1 drugs, and why he thinks they should be prescribed as something other than weight loss medication.Questions Answered in This Episode:• Why does standard bloodwork detect metabolic dysfunction so late?• Why are women more insulin sensitive than men at the same or higher body fat?• What actually changes metabolically during menopause?• Is visceral fat inherently dangerous, or is something else going on?• Why did Dr. Bikman change his position on GLP-1 medications?• Should GLP-1 drugs be prescribed as weight loss drugs at all?This milestone episode offers a rigorous, physiology-first look at where metabolic science stands today, and what researchers and clinicians may need to examine next.Thank you for listening, watching, sharing these conversations, and helping us reach 100 episodes.

Welcome to another episode of Fratello On Air! This week, Mike is in Florida, and Balazs is in Hungary. But we're here for you! In today's discussion, we tackle a listener suggestion. We're talking about entry-level watches and how brands approach this. Hint: it's very different today, with greater expectations from the buyer.Jumping into watches 15 to 20 years ago was a much different affair than now. Social media was barely present, prices were lower, and microbrands were almost non-existent. Our listener, Cezary, asked us to consider the brands representing the new entry-level category. We do that, but go further and talk about what this term means today and how larger brands interpret it. We hope you enjoy the show!HandgelenkskontrolleWe start our show with some travel banter. Balazs had a lengthy drive to Hungary with his baby daughter. It was relatively challenging, but after one night and 12 hours on the open road, he is enjoying some family time. Meanwhile, Mike flew from London to Miami and slept most of the way before and after watching Marty Supreme. Once again, The Odyssey surfaces during our chat. So be it! Then, we discuss LeBron James and the surprise signing with the Philadelphia 76ers. For the Handgelenkskontrolle, our choices couldn't be more different. Mike is enjoying the pool and jogging with this durable Citizen Promaster BN0220. Balazs has dressed it up with his Rolex GMT-Master 1675.Entry-level watchesWhen it comes to entry-level watches, our listener specifically asked about the Seiko sub-brand, Lorus, and whether it has replaced Seiko 5 as the low-cost option. The bottom line is that we don't think so. There's nothing wrong with these pieces, but they don't seem to be aimed at enthusiasts like the old 7S26 pieces were. Instead, it shifts our discussion to what we think has really occurred. As Seiko has raised prices, the company expects buyers to join the journey. In other words, the price of an affordable watch, as viewed by brands, has changed. Cezary also asked about Longines and whether the brand has become the new Omega. This came up because Omega's prices have drifted upward and Longines now occupies this price bracket. Our view is that there is still a large difference between the two, but that Longines has improved mightily. This leads to a further discussion on the remaining Swatch Group brands and how the hierarchy works. Our feeling, again, is that a brand like Omega wants a buyer to remain loyal and not move to a different brand under the corporate umbrella. Finally, we talk about the rise of microbrands. These companies have become the new entry-level darlings. However, the challenge for these companies is reach and differentiation. Still, for enthusiasts who conduct a bit of research, this is where the opportunities lie.We hope you enjoyed today's episode, and thank you for listening. As always, let us know if you have topics for future shows!
What happens after a patient leaves the hospital may matter as much as the care they received inside it.

Viewing time as a ticking clock or a constant inconvenience disconnects us from life's natural rhythms. Distinguished jurist and Indigenous law scholar John Borrows says we should redefine our relationship with the hours. He explains why we should stop managing time and start living with it as a companion. When we think about time as a friend, we create more opportunities for vulnerability, healing and connection.
For many women, alcohol isn't the problem. It's simply become part of the routine.A way to unwind after a long day. A way to celebrate, connect with friends, or simply get through the week. But what happens when we begin to wonder if it's still serving us?In this episode, I sit down with Paula Devine, founder of Happiest Hour and a certified sobriety coach, for a thoughtful, judgment-free conversation about gray-area drinking, "mommy wine culture," and why more women are choosing to rethink their relationship with alcohol.Paula shares her own journey from believing alcohol helped her cope to realizing it was quietly taking more than it was giving—impacting her mental health, her peace, and her sense of self. Today, she helps women explore that relationship with honesty, compassion, and practical support, meeting them exactly where they are.Together, we discuss:• What "gray-area drinking" really means• Why you don't have to hit rock bottom to make a change• The connection between alcohol, hormones, sleep, and mental health• How to navigate social situations, mocktails, and changing habits• Finding more peace, clarity, and freedom through intentional livingWhether you enjoy an occasional glass of wine, have considered drinking less, or simply want to better understand someone you love, this conversation offers perspective without pressure and a reminder that every woman's path is her own.Learn more about Paula and Happiest Hour at www.HappiestHourAF.comFor more conversations, travel, wellness, and stories that help us all hold tight to the good, subscribe to my newsletter at www.PaigeKornblue.com

For years, we've been told that becoming known means creating more content, growing bigger audiences, and showing up everywhere. But lately, I've been asking a different question: What if that visibility playbook is no longer the one that helps experts build real authority? In episode 501 of Amplify Your Success Podcast, I share what I've been noticing as I work with experts, host conversations, and continue building my own visibility strategy. The way people discover, trust, and choose who they work with is changing. We're seeing buying behavior shift, social algorithms become less reliable, and audiences crave something much deeper than constant content. I talk about why I'm moving away from chasing visibility for visibility's sake and leaning into a different approach. One that's built on thought leadership, meaningful collaboration, trusted relationships, and community. I'll also share why I've become so excited about platforms like Substack, why I believe collaboration is becoming one of the most valuable ways to grow your authority, and what I think experts need to focus on if they want to become known in this next era of business. If you've been feeling like creating more content isn't producing the results it once did, this episode will help you rethink where your energy belongs and how to build authority that lasts. Key Takeaways: [00:00] Why I believe the traditional visibility playbook is expiring and what is replacing it. [02:19] The shift I'm seeing in how people build trust and make buying decisions today. [03:10] Why I believe the influencer era is giving way to a new kind of authority built on authenticity and earned wisdom. [06:51] Why I've stopped trying to create content for algorithms and what I'm focusing on instead. [09:03] How podcast guesting is evolving and why collaboration matters more than simply getting booked. [12:24] The common mistakes I see experts make that keep them from turning podcast interviews into meaningful business growth. [13:52] Why I'm investing so much energy into Substack and how it's becoming an important part of my authority ecosystem. [17:16] Why community has become one of the most valuable assets for building long-term visibility and trust. [20:41] How strategic collaborations create opportunities that simply can't be replicated by traditional marketing. [23:58] Why playing the long game is one of the most important mindset shifts you can make if you want to build lasting authority.

Healthcare organizations have spent decades working to improve patient safety, but those efforts have traditionally focused on what happens after a patient enters the healthcare system.

The health of American Democracy is in decline.According to the McCourtney Institute for Democracy, only 27% of Gen Z strongly agree that democracy is the best form of government.Democracy can be found in many forms and political ideologies. Most recently, we're witnessing the rise of Democratic Socialism. Zohran Mamdani, Bernie Sanders, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are just some of the politicians who identify as socialists.Combined with the public's growing anti-capitalist sentiments, these new political ideologies are stirring quite the controversy. President Trump and JD Vance have spent the past year comparing them to communism.But are these new approaches to government really a threat to our democracy, or arethey tryingto revive the health of our democracy?We'll learn more about how Americans are rethinking democracy.Guests:Michael Kazin, professor of history at Georgetown UniversityBrianna Mack, associate professor of politics and government at Ohio Wesleyan UniversityTanmay Shah, Cleveland City Council Member, Ward 12

The discussion reframes traditional risk by highlighting the clinical importance of psychological distress, social isolation and behavioural factors in shaping cardiovascular risk and recovery. The conversation also turns to clinician wellbeing, with Ms Garbrecht outlining the impact of burnout, workplace stress and organisational culture on both physician health and patient outcomes. From the physiological effects of stress to the influence of communication and framing in consultations, this episode offers practical, time-efficient strategies to enhance patient interactions and reinforce positive behaviour. Dr Kalra reflects on applying these insights in practice, while Ms Garbrecht emphasises a fundamental principle: clinicians must prioritise their own wellbeing to deliver optimal care.

The Enlightened Family Business Podcast Ep. 165: Rethinking Succession in Family Business with Josh Baron In this episode of the Enlightened Family Business Podcast, host Chris Yonker sits down with Josh Baron — Harvard Business School faculty member, co-founder of Banyan Global, and co-author of multiple Harvard Business Review works on family enterprise — for a rich, deeply practical conversation on the topic that never gets old: succession. Josh has spent 20 years advising family businesses and teaching at Columbia and Harvard, and what he keeps finding is that families don't fail at succession because they chose the wrong person. They fail because they never built the right process. Together Chris and Josh explore why a family business CEO who's been in the seat for 30 years is not facing a job change — they're facing an identity crisis; why the how of succession is more important than the what; the critical difference between conquerors and rulers and why the next generation doesn't need to look like the founder to be the right fit; how to use the arc of succession — assets, roles, and capabilities — as a planning framework; what happens when the founding generation leaves and the next generation discovers they have no one to resolve their disputes; and why working backwards from the far future is one of the most effective tools for getting a reluctant founder to engage. They also dig into the four ownership models used by successful multi-generational family businesses and why the question isn't just who should run the business — it's whether the family should have a business at all.

In this episode of the AAOS Now Podcast, host Ahmed Emara, MD, speaks with Nathan Mesko, MD, FAAOS, to explore the limits of orthopaedic surgery and the difficult decisions surrounding “heroic” measures. Dr. Mesko draws on 13 years of experience in orthopaedic oncology and joint reconstruction to unpack what "heroic" really means in surgery. He argues that heroism has less to do with technical difficulty – ”can I perform this procedure” – and more to do with what a patient is being asked to endure to reach a surgeon's envisioned outcome. Throughout the conversation, Dr. Mesko returns to a central idea: Surgical capability should always be outpaced by wisdom. He walks through how to recognize when the push toward a heroic operation is being driven by the surgeon rather than the patient, and he offers concrete techniques for having honest, humane conversations with patients around amputation, cancer diagnoses, and end of life. He also discusses the emotional toll of these decisions, including guilt, escalation of commitment, and how surgeons can build the humility and self-forgiveness needed for a sustainable career. The episode closes with a personal story that illustrates why staying present with a patient and not turning away from them, even after a frustrating conversation, can matter even more than the surgery itself. Key topics covered: Defining "heroic" measures in orthopaedic surgery and how that threshold shifts over a surgeon's career as the surgeon matures, including the evolution from saying "yes" to every procedure to knowing when to say "no” The challenges of actually getting informed consent for maiming or life-altering procedures, such as sacral resections and proximal femoral replacements, given the challenge of explaining to patients how much the procedure will impact their daily life Recognizing when surgical momentum is being driven by the surgeon rather than the patient, including escalation of commitment and the sunken cost fallacy in surgical decision-making The value of physically equalizing the conversation, such as pulling up a chair and sitting down rather than towering over the patient, to build trust and openness The importance of listening to patients before recommending treatment options to ensure that the treatment aligns with the patient's goals and personal wishes Strategies for guarding against unnecessary repeat interventions, including peer consultation and pausing after setbacks Rethinking success in orthopaedics beyond X-rays and implant longevity, including patient-reported outcomes Managing surgeon guilt, self-forgiveness, and separating outcomes from the integrity of the decision-making process The importance of never leaving a patient without a clear next step or follow-up plan Listeners are encouraged to reflect not only on how they operate, but on how and why they decide to operate at all.

Rainn Wilson was a late bloomer: he landed the role of Dwight Schrute on The Office after over a decade of struggling as an actor. But success didn't solve all of his problems -- and it even created some new ones. In this live conversation for the Authors@Wharton series, Adam asks Rainn about his unlikely journey to stardom and how it led him into exploring the insights that philosophy, psychology, and the world's great spiritual traditions can offer on modern life's existential questions. They also discuss Rainn's favorite moments from The Office and do some improv when Dunder Mifflin invites a certain organizational psychologist to talk to Dwight.
