Every company promotes its best people into leadership, then sets them adrift with zero tools to actually lead. Tess Fyalka has spent 25 years cleaning up that mess. She's the founder of Angle Coaching & Communication, author of Walking the Leadership Ledge, and spent nearly a decade building leadership development infrastructure inside a mid-size commercial construction company before going independent. Two thousand ghostwritten articles and white papers later, she pulled the patterns into a book.In this conversation, Bill and Tess take on the promotion trap that quietly wrecks teams, the lie new leaders tell themselves to avoid hard conversations, and what it actually takes for a star individual contributor to become a real leader of people. Tess walks through "Betsy" — the kind of high-performer companies promote because they assume excellence is transferable, then watch flame out when the wheels come off the bus. She names the Big Lie directly: when a leader avoids a difficult conversation to "protect" their team member, they're really protecting themselves. And the cost of that avoidance compounds.They get into the inside-out nature of leadership development: you can't lead others well until you know your own values, your triggers, and what you're choosing to be in the role. Tess shares her BRRR framework for difficult conversations and why the imaginary scenarios in your head are almost never how the conversation actually plays out. Bill brings his own moments of getting it wrong, including the time he caught himself reflexively defending micromanagement. They close on the metaphor that gives the book its title: when you step into a new leadership role, you're standing on a ledge, and you don't know yet whether the drop is ten inches or ten thousand feet.In This Episode:Why the skills that earn a promotion actively work against you as a managerThe "Big Lie" ineffective leaders tell themselves to avoid hard conversations"Delengaging" — Tess's framework for delegating through genuine engagementThe Betsy problem: what happens when companies promote excellence and expect it to transferHow nearly a decade in commercial construction proved leadership development works anywhereWhy most delegation is really just dumping — and how to tell the differenceAbout the Book:Walking the Leadership Ledge: The "New" Leaders' Guide to Building Resilience and Confidence at Every Step.

Erik Torenberg speaks with tech analyst Benedict Evans about the current state of AI, what has changed over the past year, and which questions remain unanswered. The conversation covers coding agents, foundation models, AI infrastructure spending, software economics, and the tension between today's AI excitement and the long-term realities of technology adoption. Evans discusses why coding has emerged as AI's first breakout use case, how previous platform shifts can help frame the current moment, and why many of the most important questions about AI remain unresolved. Along the way, they explore the future of software, enterprise adoption, consumer behavior, and whether AI models ultimately capture value themselves or become infrastructure for the next generation of applications.   Resources: Follow Benedict Evans on X: https://x.com/benedictevans Follow Erik Torenberg on X: https://x.com/eriktorenberg Stay Updated:Find a16z on YouTube: YouTubeFind a16z on XFind a16z on LinkedInListen to the a16z Show on SpotifyListen to the a16z Show on Apple PodcastsFollow our host: https://twitter.com/eriktorenberg Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

In this mid-year check-in, we're getting honest about what it feels like to be in the "thick of failure". From navigating the weight of an ADHD diagnosis to rejecting the pressure of burnout culture, we discuss what happens when high agency meets low motivation. Whether you're "busy resting" or struggling to model agency when you've lost interest, this episode is a reminder to anchor your self-worth in who you are, not what you achieve.

Tom Herbert shares his takeaways from Tax Tech Live in London, where the AI conversation felt more grounded. Rather than sweeping claims about revolutionising the profession, the focus was on practical use cases, how teams are using AI now, and what this could mean for training and the profession. Herbert also warns that a pricing crunch may be coming as AI costs rise. Matthew Ord then looks at EY's latest Global DNA of the CFO survey, which suggests CFO ambition is running ahead of execution. While many finance leaders want to drive value creation, fewer are leading those conversations. Ord and Herbert explore why finance still struggles to translate data, technology and insight into boardroom influence, and why the future of finance depends on effectively bringing talent and technology together. Finally, the team talks about audit, following BDO's £2m penalty. Ord explains what happened before discussing what the Financial Reporting Council's findings say about audit quality, professional scepticism and the question of what happens next now that audit reform has stalled.

Cybercriminals don't need to “hack” our systems when they can trick someone into handing over access, and AI is making those tricks more realistic and scalable. We talk with Daniel Metcalfe of Cyberfin about where benefits advisors are most exposed and the layered, practical steps that reduce breach risk while still letting teams use AI responsibly. • why employee and employer data is “gold” to attackers • how advisors get used as a pathway to bigger targets • why MFA and antivirus alone don't stop social engineering • where agencies are most vulnerable today: email credentials and tool connections • what “layered” user-based protection looks like in real life • why password managers change the social engineering game • how ongoing security awareness training finds gaps faster than annual check-the-box training • why cloud storage is not the same as encrypted backups • how AI is already being used inside agencies without formal approval • practical AI wins that avoid sensitive data and improve efficiency • what client expectations are becoming in an AI world and why relationships still matter

In this podcast, Dales discusses why intelligent traders repeatedly lose, and how emotion, fear, overconfidence, and media noise quietly destroy their returns. Most traders get it backwards, believing that success hinges on finding the right stock, the perfect strategy, or the next big trend. But the truth is far more confronting. If you want to become more successful, this is a conversation you cannot afford to miss.

A hybrid practice can feel flexible and efficient, until the lack of structure starts creating problems.When therapists move between telehealth and in-person sessions without a clear system, small decisions quickly turn into ethical, logistical, and clinical challenges. Questions about HIPAA, crisis management, informed consent, and scheduling all become harder when there is no defined default.In this episode, I walk through what therapists need to consider before offering a hybrid counseling model. We look at how to decide between virtual and in-person care, where clinicians often underestimate risk, and why your policies matter more than your preferences.This episode is less about technology and more about decision-making.In this episode, we cover:• How to create a clear default for telehealth versus in-person sessions• Why informed consent and crisis planning matter in hybrid practice• What therapists misunderstand about HIPAA, AI, and physical privacy• How cognitive load and scheduling affect sustainability in practiceIf your hybrid model currently depends on convenience or case-by-case decisions, this episode will help you build a structure that is easier to manage and easier to defend ethically.Want to learn more?

Iaros Belkin caught up with Owen Healy at ETHCluj, Cluj-Napoca, Romania, in what turned into one of the more honest conversations I've had at a crypto conference this cycle. Healy is the Founder and Director of Owen Healy Blockchain Talent, a boutique Irish recruitment firm that has placed lots of people from 25+ countries into blockchain projects since he entered the space in early 2021. He built the whole thing from a standing start during COVID, living in rural Ireland, unemployed, with nothing but a LinkedIn account and a genuine curiosity about the technology. That backstory matters. It means when Healy talks about the current market, he isn't protecting a fund position or managing a narrative. He's telling you what he actually sees from the candidate and employer side simultaneously. And right now, what he sees is sobering. On AI and job displacement The WEF Future of Jobs report projects 92 million roles displaced and 170 million created by 2030. Net positive on paper. Healy isn't buying the framing. "There are a lot of companies that historically would have been over-bloated and overstaffed, and they're conveniently using AI as an excuse to conduct layoffs," he told me. "AI is replacing jobs, but maybe not to the extent that the corporate world would like you to believe." He's equally clear that nobody is immune. "Everyone is using the benefits of AI and suffering the consequences of it at the same time." On developers Developers who were comfortable at €150K two or three years ago are now accepting €120K. Healy is direct about why: the market is an employer's market, full stop. Location matters more than it did. The US and Asia are moving; Europe is quiet. And developers are being pushed up the stack regardless. "People are being forced to effectively do more and leverage the best AI capabilities. Sometimes it's reasonable, sometimes it's not." On institutional money arriving This is the part of the conversation that surprised me most. Healy's read is that institutional entry is changing the candidate profile the industry actually wants. "We're entering an industry where hoodies are less in demand and suits are in more demand." For years, TradFi professionals were crypto-curious but couldn't stomach the risk of leaving stable, pensionable careers for a space where ten-year jobs are rare and use cases can be murky. That's changing. JP Morgan, BlackRock, and others are doing blockchain-related hiring now, and it's pulling a cohort of talent that was always interested but never had a comfortable entry point. London, New York, Hong Kong, Singapore: that's where institutional-adjacent hiring is concentrated. On EthCC feeling like a funeral It was an offhand remark that landed harder than most prepared conference soundbites. "EthCC felt like a funeral in many respects," Healy said. His reasoning is rooted in what he sees from the inside: projects that look fine externally, companies still putting on a brave face while quietly running out of runway. He mentioned Code4rena winding down as one example, a business he described as legitimate and genuinely useful to the space. "Nobody's going to invest in you or use your services if you're anticipating you'll run out of business in six months." The one piece of advice he offered for a bear market Go to events. Build the relationships now that pay off when conditions improve. He did it in 2023. He's doing it again. Practical. Unglamorous. And coming from someone who built a 100-placement recruitment business from a rural Irish village during a pandemic, probably worth listening to. Iaros Belkin is a founder of Belkin Marketing, a boutique agency serving as Strategic Advisor to Deep Tech, Web3 and AI Founders.

Did New England do enough to protect Drake Maye? Was the draft focused on building a real long-term foundation, or was it just about adding bodies to a roster with obvious holes? Mike and Zach discuss Will Campbell, left tackle concerns, offensive line depth, and why protecting Maye could define the Patriots' entire season.From there, the show dives into the Patriots wide receiver room and the big-name trade rumors that continue to follow New England.Could A.J. Brown become a real trade target for the Patriots? Should New England be aggressive if a true number one wide receiver becomes available? Mike and Zach compare A.J. Brown and Stefon Diggs, looking at age, upside, production, injury concerns, risk, fit, and what each receiver would mean for Drake Maye's development. A.J. Brown brings star power, size, and explosive upside. Stefon Diggs offers experience and reliability. But would either move be enough to push the Patriots into the AFC contender conversation?The guys also discuss Romeo Doubs and whether the Patriots can build a successful spread offense without a clear elite number one receiver. Zach makes the case that spreading the ball around could help Drake Maye grow in year three, while Mike questions whether a receiver room built around multiple number two options can win playoff games against teams like the Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens, and Cincinnati Bengals.The episode also features a full breakdown of the Patriots' 2025 schedule, one of the toughest in the NFL by traditional strength-of-schedule metrics. Mike and Zach look at New England's matchups against the AFC West, NFC North, and other key opponents that could shape the Patriots' playoff hopes. They also discuss the Patriots' 10.5 win total and whether that number is fair, too high, or actually reachable if Drake Maye and the roster stay healthy.Zach also brings the numbers on NFL rest differential, including where the Patriots rank compared to the rest of the league. The schedule may be difficult, but New England's rest advantage could give Mike Vrabel's team a real edge in key spots. Mike and Zach debate whether that rest differential helps offset one of the hardest schedules in football.Then the conversation turns to the bigger AFC playoff picture.Are the Patriots legitimate AFC contenders in 2025? Should New England be viewed as a threat because of Drake Maye, Mike Vrabel, and a stronger roster? Or are the expectations moving too fast for a team that still needs to prove it can win meaningful games in January?Mike and Zach discuss the Patriots' Super Bowl chances, AFC Championship expectations, playoff matchups, and how New England stacks up against the Chiefs, Bills, Ravens, Bengals, and the rest of the AFC. They also touch on Patrick Mahomes' injury situation, Kansas City's uncertainty, and whether the Chiefs are still the biggest roadblock in the AFC.The episode closes with the off-field story surrounding Mike Vrabel and Diana Russini. Mike and Zach discuss the controversy, the media reaction, and whether it could become a distraction for the Patriots entering the season. They look at how the situation could affect Vrabel's focus, his reputation, and his future in New England, while also asking the bigger question: does any of this actually matter once the Patriots start playing football?This is a full New England Patriots offseason breakdown with the usual Missing the Point mix of honest football analysis, strong opinions, frustration, optimism, and enough chaos to match the current state of the Patriots.Topics include:New England Patriots 2025 offseason previewDrake Maye year three expectationsDrake Maye development and playoff growthPatriots offensive line concernsWill Campbell and left tackle questionsPatriots 2026 NFL Draft strategyA.J.

They have trade rumors, roster questions, offensive line concerns, and a fan base ready to believe again.Now New England has to prove whether the 2025 Patriots are a real AFC contender or just another offseason idea that sounds better before the games start.Support the show-----------https://www.MTPshow.comOur Social Mediahttps://linktr.ee/MTPSHOW-----------Hosts: Mike Marcangelo, Dave ClarkeProducer: Craig D'Alessandro, Dave ClarkeInquiries: Craig@mtpshow.com

On this episode of Power House, Zeb Lowe sits down with AI and enterprise software executive Stephen to discuss where artificial intelligence is actually headed in mortgage lending beyond the hype cycle. Stephen explains why the industry is shifting from flashy AI promises to practical implementation, with the real opportunity centered around augmenting teams, improving workflows, and scaling production more efficiently. The conversation also explores why mortgage tech adoption has historically struggled, and why change management — not technology itself — remains one of the industry's biggest obstacles. Zeb and Stephen also dive into interoperability challenges, clean data infrastructure, AI drift, and how artificial intelligence could reshape staffing models, lender consolidation, and loan cycle times over the next several years. At its core, this episode is about a simple reality: the lenders investing in AI infrastructure and adoption today may define the next era of mortgage lending.

Special guest Gordo from the podcast Play Tessie joins Mark Corbett and Mat Germain for an in-depth look at the current state of the Boston Red Sox. The crew breaks down Boston's elite pitching, offensive struggles, leadership concerns, player development, trade deadline possibilities, and how the Red Sox compare to the Rays model of success. Red Sox Pitching is Carrying the Team Boston's starting rotation and bullpen have been among the best in the American League during May.  Sonny Gray's dominant outing sparks discussion about the strength of the staff.  Gordo explains how the pitching staff consistently gives the Red Sox opportunities to win games. Offensive Problems Continue The Red Sox remain one of the weakest offensive teams in baseball despite strong pitching and defense.  Trevor Story, Jarren Duran, and Caleb Durbin are discussed as major offensive disappointments.  Gordo notes that even league average run production would make Boston one of baseball's top teams. Life After Rafael Devers and Alex Bregman Discussion on the impact of losing star players and veteran leadership.  Pressure has shifted onto younger players who may not yet be ready to carry the offense.  Roman Anthony's development becomes a major focal point for the franchise moving forward. Christian Campbell and the Youth Movement Debate over Christian Campbell's future position and timeline to return to the majors.  The group discusses whether Campbell should move back to the infield.  Concerns are raised about rushing top prospects before they are fully ready. Comparing the Rays and Red Sox Development Systems Mat explains how the Rays build organizational identity from the Florida Complex League all the way to the majors.  Gordo discusses Boston's analytics-heavy developmental philosophy and recent coaching changes.  The conversation explores whether the Red Sox lack a unified organizational identity. Leadership and Clubhouse Identity Alex Cora's firing and Chad Tracy's promotion are discussed in detail.  The hosts examine whether Boston lacks veteran leadership and emotional anchors in the clubhouse.  Comparisons are made to successful Rays teams built around accountability and defense-first baseball. Ownership and Spending Questions The crew debates whether Red Sox ownership still has the same urgency to win.  Comparisons are made between Boston's current payroll strategy and previous championship seasons.  Fenway Sports Group's expanding business interests become part of the discussion. Brutal Upcoming Schedule The Red Sox face one of the toughest remaining schedules in baseball.  Matchups against the Braves, Yankees, Rays, Blue Jays, Mariners, Dodgers, and others could define the season. Trade Deadline Speculation Gordo breaks down possible trade chips including Sonny Gray, Aroldis Chapman, and Garrett Whitlock.  Mat discusses why the Rays could potentially pursue Chapman at the deadline.  The group debates whether Boston should buy, sell, or retool for next season. What Gordo is Watching the Rest of the Season Roman Anthony's health and development remain the biggest storyline for Boston.  Gordo explains why Anthony could still become the centerpiece of the franchise. Featured Guest Gordo from the Play Tessie podcast  Contributor to Baseball Isn't Boring Follow Gordo on X: @BOSSportsGordo Remember to like and subscribe to BaseballBiz On Deck.

ITL debates what Houston should be learning from the NBA's final four teams.

Markets have now advanced for seven straight weeks, a historically bullish signal for long-term returns. But short-term risks are starting to build beneath the surface. Momentum is weakening, breadth remains soft, and markets are approaching a potential sell signal as overbought conditions begin to unwind. In this episode, we break down why a pullback toward the 20-DMA — and possibly the 7,000 breakout level — would not be unusual after such a strong rally. We also examine the historical pattern of market corrections following the appointment of a new Fed Chairman, election-year volatility risks, and why investors may want to become more defensive without abandoning the broader bull market outlook. We discuss portfolio positioning, risk management, value versus growth, fixed income opportunities, and why a correction could become the next major buying opportunity later this year.

Our favorite military analyst, Sim Tack, returns to the pod to assess three different conflicts reshaping global security. In Ukraine, territorial gains are tactical, not strategic; Russian economic endurance remains the real variable. In Iran, a degraded military has reached a stalemate the U.S. and Israel cannot break without regime change. And in Mali, a jihadist advance is threatening to create a new territorial caliphate... with Russia's failed security guarantee quietly accelerating the collapse.--Timestamps:(00:00) - Welcome(01:08) - Sim is Back(01:56) - Is the World Overwhelming?(04:23) - AI Briefings and Limits(06:10) - Drones and War Evolution(09:44) - Top Conflicts to Watch(11:59) - Ukraine Strikes and Oil Leverage(13:53) - Reality Check on Initiative(18:26) - Zelensky Endgame Options(23:28) - Russia Staying Power and Economy(26:15) - NATO Threat Question(26:46) - Russia Threat Timeline(27:53) - Can Russia Fight NATO(29:30) - Satellite Buildup Reality(30:23) - Europe Rearms Narrative(35:11) - Asymmetric Threat Debate(37:06) - Drones Cyber Article Five(41:11) - US Munitions Bottleneck(47:39) - Iran Stalemate Logic(50:27) - How Neutered Is Iran(53:46) - Mali Jihadist Surge(57:17) - Closing Thanks Outro--Sim's Work:AllSource Analysis: https://allsourceanalysis.com/work/sim-tack/Linkedin: https://be.linkedin.com/in/sim-tack-081b313b--Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

Jase, Al, and Zach tackle the growing tension around global conflict by walking through current events and the questions many are asking about Israel, Iran, and biblical prophecy. The guys draw an important distinction between letting faith inform your worldview and using ancient scripture to justify modern warfare without proper context. They explore what the Bible actually says about God's promises, the identity of Israel, and how those promises are fulfilled. The guys remind listeners that no political leader is the Messiah and that the real power of God is found in the Gospel.  In this episode: Deuteronomy 6, verse 4; Genesis 25, verse 23; Matthew 24, verses 6–7; Luke 23, verse 43; John 21, verse 12; Romans 1, verses 1–5; Romans 9, verses 1–8; Romans 9, verses 30–33; Romans 11, verses 25–29; Romans 15, verses 4–12; 1 Corinthians 3, verses 16–17; 1 Corinthians 15, verses 35–44; 2 Corinthians 1, verse 20; Hebrews 7, verses 11–12 “Unashamed” Episode 1323 is sponsored by: Get 15% off OneSkin with the code UNASHAMED at https://www.oneskin.co/unashamed #oneskinpod https://chministries.org/unashamed — See why Christians are ditching health insurance for good.
