55: At Home with the Brontës

There has never been a literary family quite like the Brontës. In our autumn podcast Ann Dinsdale, Principal Curator of the Brontë Parsonage Museum at Haworth in Yorkshire, joined the Slightly Foxed team to discuss the story of the family's life there. The Brontës moved to Haworth in 1820 when Patrick Brontë became curate, and the parsonage was established as a museum in 1928 when it was acquired by the Brontë Society. Mrs Brontë and the oldest two daughters, Maria and Elizabeth, died there from tuberculosis, leaving Charlotte, Emily, Anne and their brother Branwell to be educated at home by their widowed father.  Ann talks about her work at the Parsonage Museum, a treasure trove of Brontë memorabilia, containing 9,000 items including clothes, letters, first editions and the sisters' own writing boxes. The Brontës were a close-knit family, sharing their games and creating a rich imaginary world which formed the basis of their later writing. Patrick Brontë was a loving and in many ways an unconventional father, who encouraged the girls' education and allowed them to read freely. He was a lover of the natural world, and on their daily walks in the wild moorland country around Haworth the sisters absorbed the atmosphere that would permeate their novels.  Recognition came in 1847 when each published a novel, though initially they hid behind the pseudonyms of Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell. Charlotte's Jane Eyre was the first, an overnight sensation which was the talk of literary London, causing endless speculation about the identity of its author. Three months later came Emily's Wuthering Heights, which shocked readers with its story of passion, violence and revenge, and finally Anne's Agnes Grey. The scene could have been set for brilliant literary careers, but within two years both Emily and Anne were dead from tuberculosis, Emily at 30 and Anne at 29. Charlotte married her father's curate, lived on to write Shirley and Villette, based on her time as a teacher in a school in Brussels, and died at 38. Branwell, who never fulfilled his family's high expectations, died addicted to alcohol and opium when he was 31. Even before Charlotte's death Haworth had become a place of pilgrimage for Brontë fans, and Mrs Gaskell's 1857 biography of her helped to establish the family's lasting fame. Today the Parsonage Museum is hugely popular with visitors. It is also a centre for research and runs an annual festival of women's writing. Ann's deep knowledge of the Brontës and her experience of running the museum made for a fascinating discussion, leaving us to wonder, had the sisters lived longer, what their eventual literary legacy might have been. Autumn book recommendations were Blythe Spirit, Ian Collins's biography of Ronald Blythe, The Brothers York by Thomas Penn, Plainsong, an American novel by Kent Haruf, Traitor's Legacy by S. J. Parris, and The Land in Winter by Andrew Miller. For episode show notes, please see the Slightly Foxed website.

E1020 The Praise Paradox: Why Recognition at Work Doesn't Always Feel Good

Tactical Living

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, unpacks a surprising truth: praise, awards, and public recognition don't always feel good to first responders (Amazon Affiliate). While many people assume medals and compliments bring pride, for those in uniform they can sometimes trigger discomfort, guilt, or even resentment. We explore the psychology behind this paradox—and how to accept recognition in a healthy way without feeling like you're betraying your values. 1. Why Praise Can Feel Uncomfortable First responders often see their actions as “just doing the job,” not something special. Public praise can feel undeserved when you know how much was lost or how many others were involved. 2. The Guilt-Recognition Conflict Recognition sometimes resurfaces memories of traumatic calls or fallen colleagues. Officers may feel like accepting praise dishonors those who didn't survive. 3. The Culture of Humility and Stoicism First responder culture often discourages showing pride or seeking attention. Praise can clash with the deeply ingrained mindset of selfless service. 4. How This Affects Mental Health Dismissing or deflecting praise can reinforce feelings of isolation and low self-worth. Refusing to internalize recognition contributes to burnout and emotional exhaustion. 5. Healthier Ways to Receive Praise Acknowledge the emotion without minimizing it (“It was hard, and I did my best”). Redirect praise to the whole team without rejecting it entirely. Talk about the discomfort—normalize it among peers to reduce shame. Use praise as a reminder of impact, not perfection. Keep perspective: accepting recognition doesn't mean seeking it.

Hosts: Case Aiken and J. Mike Folson, with returning guest J.D. Martin. Initial Impressions and Reactions to Megamind (02:00 - 10:40) JD relates personal experience watching the movie during a back pain episode. He praises the voice cast: Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, Jonah Hill, and Brad Pitt. Characters, Casting, and Voice Performances (10:40 - 21:04) Discussion of the main characters and voice actors: Will Ferrell as Megamind praised for his comedic timing. Tina Fey as Roxanne Ritchi, the strong Lois Lane archetype. Music and Soundtrack (21:04 - 26:00) Soundtrack by Hans Zimmer and Lauren Balfe well received for blending classic superhero score with many rock needle drops. Noted needle drops include 'Highway to Hell,' 'Back in Black,' 'Crazy Train,' and 'Bad to the Bone.' Supporting Characters and Humor (26:00 - 31:27) Minion, Megamind's pet, is highlighted as a great comic sidekick balancing Krypto and Otis-type roles. The film's dense joke rate is praised in comparison to sitcom qualities. Plot and Story Structure Evaluation (31:27 - 41:28) Discussion appreciates that the Superman analog Metro Man faking his death and quitting is a strong story beat. Titan's rise and subsequent villainy highlighted as key to forcing Megamind into the hero role. ️ Final Narrative and Thematic Elements (41:28 - 51:29) The endgame where Megamind takes on the identity of the hero (Metro Man) using disguises is highlighted. Love story between Megamind and Roxanne praised as a slow burn and effective emotional core. Cultural and Industry Context (51:29 - 58:56) Megamind's release context: 2010, alongside Iron Man 2, Toy Story 3, and before MCU dominance. Positioned as a parody, deconstruction, and love letter to superhero genre before the MCU explosion. Closing Remarks and Tribute (58:56 - 01:07:01) Recognition of Patreon supporters and invitation to join. Tribute to actor Terence Stamp (General Zod in Superman films) who passed away on recording day.

Strong voice cast (10:40 - 18:00) Notable performances, especially Will Ferrell as Megamind and Tina Fey as Roxanne Ritchi. Jonah Hill's character adds a darker twist on typical sidekick tropes. Numerous classic rock needle drops (22:30 - 23:00) A hallmark of DreamWorks animated movies aimed at older kids and adults. ️ Fight sequences and choreography (26:58 - 27:30) Surprisingly well-executed and impactful, elevating the animated action to near live-action standards. Tight story structure (31:27 - 34:00) Well-paced with a high joke-per-minute ratio making it enjoyable for multiple viewings. ️ Megamind's character arc (41:28 - 51:29) From villain to hero effectively supported by strong thematic elements, including friendship, identity, and redemption. Movie fits well in the 2010 superhero context (51:29 - 58:56) Before the MCU boom, making it a timely and insightful satire and love letter to superhero media.

Highlighting inspiring stories, practical tools, and an invitation to a free training, the hosts encourage listeners to dream bigger, disrupt limiting beliefs, and step into their highest potential—personally and professionally—by aligning with the natural cycles of growth and expansion.   TAKEAWAYS Theme of expansion and personal growth as we transition from 2025 to 2026. Natural cycles of contraction and expansion in personal and professional contexts. Importance of letting go of old habits, behaviors, and identities to facilitate growth. The analogy of nature, particularly trees shedding leaves, to illustrate the necessity of release. Recognition of "push" and "pull" periods in the growth process. The significance of the transitional period leading up to the new year for reflection and preparation. Holistic growth across various life areas (career, relationships, health, finances) for sustainable success. The role of accountability, vision, and community support in the transformation process. Neuroscience-based practices for maintaining focus on personal goals and shifting mental states. Encouragement to embrace discomfort as a part of the expansion journey and to challenge limiting beliefs.

Key Takeaways Food serves as a powerful connection to cultural heritage and family traditions, preserving memories across generations. Starting with familiar ingredients and asking questions is the best approach when exploring a new cuisine like Mexican cooking. Breakfast holds special significance in Hispanic culture as a time for family connection and conversation, not just sustenance. Essential Mexican pantry staples like dried chilies and cilantro can transform everyday cooking with authentic flavors. Cultural traditions like Día de los Muertos help families maintain connections to their roots and honor those who came before. Passion projects that start as personal endeavors can evolve into meaningful careers when they authentically reflect one's heritage. Comparing unfamiliar ingredients to similar familiar ones (like cotija cheese to feta) helps overcome intimidation in trying new cuisines. Quotable Moments "It was just more of just having a recipe catalog for my family" - Ericka on the original purpose of Nibbles and Feasts. "Every time I see breaded fish, I'd always think of her" - Ericka remembering her grandmother's specialty dish. "Hispanic heritage, one in my house, there's, it's an everyday thing" - Ericka on celebrating culture daily. "I feel bad for those people" - Ericka responding to those who taste cilantro as soap "We always eat breakfast, even if it's a Wednesday morning. We sit and we eat breakfast" - Ericka on the importance of breakfast in Hispanic culture. "It's just a way of bringing everybody together and talking about our day" - Ericka on breakfast as family connection time. "You have to experiment and find out how it's used" - Ericka's advice for exploring Mexican ingredients.

SummaryPart two of Clark's practical “Lessons Learned” series—from an old slide deck that still packs a punch. We cover why mission must lead your conversations, how to cultivate until the “yes” is likely, the art of listening (and how to measure it), why the case must be bigger than your organization, and the simple discipline of getting in the living room, not just the inbox.What You'll LearnLead with mission, not programs: Define the problem you exist to solve; then show how your programs are the vehicle.Money isn't the problem: Relational deficit > budget deficit. Build the relationship that makes the gift obvious.Change lives, not line items: Donors give to impact. Your job is to articulate how lives change uniquely through you.Listen like a pro: Aim to speak far less than you listen; measure it after each meeting to improve.Don't be flippant with the ask: Cultivate and ask—don't “just ask.” Ask when a “yes” is likely.Emotion moves big gifts: Logic opens the door; emotion carries the gift over the threshold.Meet with both spouses: If both aren't in the room, your best arguments will go unanswered.Make the case bigger than your org: Community, nation, world—then your distinctive role.Treat giving as a habit to build: Start small with first-time or reluctant givers; grow over time.Recognition matters (even if it's “no recognition”): Always ask and align.Choose the living room over lunch: Fewer interruptions, clearer decisions.Prior donors predict future gifts: Steward yesterday's givers to cultivate tomorrow's.Never take insiders for granted: Keep building the drama for board and volunteers, too.Do your homework: Know their giving, interests, and context before you meet.You must ask: After real cultivation, make the clear, specific ask.Practical ToolsAdd this to every visit report: “% of time I talked vs. % donor talked.” What you measure improves.Pre-visit prep checklist: giving history, household context, mutual connections, LinkedIn scan, recent news.Quotable Moments“Listen. Listen intently. Listen even more intently.” — Jerry Panas“I never give because there's a need. I give because I'm interested and I believe I can make a real difference.” — as referenced in the episodeRelatedLessons Learned in Major Gifts Fundraising (Part 1)Links & ResourcesMajor Gifts Fundraiser services and trainings: majorgiftsfundraiser.comTry the Clarkbot (AI coaching, prompts, and role-play): majorgiftsfundraiser.comContactHave a question or want feedback on an upcoming ask?

On this episode of the SeventySix Capital Sports Leadership Show, Wayne Kimmel interviewed the President & CEO of ANC, Jerry Cifarelli Jr. Although Jerry's father originally founded the company more than 25 years ago, ANCs transformation since Cifarelli re-acquired the company from Learfield in 2023 has been remarkable. Departing from the conventional path of a second-generation, Cifarelli chose to forge his own path, leaving ANC in 2022 after nearly a decade with the firm to establish C10 Media. His strategic acumen and skill as a relationship builder paid dividends immediately when he secured the firm's initial project, designing and installing a cutting-edge multimedia solution for MGM Music Hall at Fenway. In 2023, recognizing a unique opportunity, Cifarelli Jr.. leveraged his long-standing industry relationships and vision for what a re-imagined ANC could be to orchestrate the acquisition of ANC by C10 Media back from Learfield. In less than two years, Jerry has transformed ANC from a digital signage solutions provider into a versatile, full-service technology, advertising, design, and service partner. Following ANC's successful first year, Cifarelli secured a substantial equity partnership in ANC by Fenway Sports Group, ideally positioning the company to fulfill Jerry's vision as a diversified single-source solutions provider and strategic partner, at the epicenter of the sports and entertainment business. Some of its digital signage projects in the past two years include: American Century Field (Milwaukee Brewers); Nationals Field (Washington Nationals); the Toyota Center (Houston Rockets); American Airlines Center (Dallas); Levi's Stadium (SF 49ers); ScotiaBank Arena (Toronto); Gainsbridge FieldHouse (Indiana Pacers); Dodger Stadium; Wells Fargo Center (Philadelphia); Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse (Cleveland), and Smoothie King Center (New Orleans). And when it comes to college facilities, ANC has relationships with nearly 65% of all colleges, and during the past two years its roster of college sports facility upgrade projects reads like a who's who of college sports: Alabama, Penn State, SMU, Boise State, Marshall, Arkansas, Louisville, Rutgers, West Virginia, Oregon State, South Carolina, and Cal Berkeley.Jerry Cifarelli Jr.:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerry-cifarelli/Chapters00:00 Introduction to ANC and Its History02:49 The Evolution of Signage in Sports05:52 ANC's Role in Venue Technology09:08 The Importance of People in the Business12:00 Recognition and Awards in the Industry14:38 Case Studies: Enhancing Fan Experience17:49 Monetizing Sports Venues20:48 The Future of Sports Venues and Technology23:44 The Professionalization of College Sports26:56 Mentorship and Leadership in Sports Business29:44 Advice for Aspiring Sports Professionals

Episode 211 of The Adventure Podcast features adventurer Ollie Treviso. Ollie recently completed a 14,000km, 20-month walk along the Andes, from Tierra del Fuego to the Caribbean Sea. In this episode, Ollie opens up about how far he's come - from a rugby-playing teenager abusing steroids and working as an insurance broker, to living in a cave in Gran Canaria, working on farms, and eventually discovering the power of slow, human-paced travel. Matt and Ollie explore his first long-distance walk across the UK, complete with an over-packed rucksack, no tent experience, and a rule never to pay for accommodation, and how these early stumbles laid the foundations for his South American journey. They also talk candidly about grief and loss, why walking feels most meaningful, resilience, identity, and the uneasy balance between adventure, ego, and storytelling. This conversation is longer than normal. But its honest, fun, and full of surprising side stories. What emerges is not just the tale of an epic trek, but an honest reflection on what drives someone to keep walking into the unknown.For extra insights from the worlds of adventure, exploration and the natural world, you can find The Adventure Podcast+ community on Substack.

This conversation dives into the tension between long-form and short-form content, using it as a lens to reflect on life, faith, and identity. Just as films, sermons, and podcasts stretch out to reveal depth and process, human lives themselves are framed as moments within God's greater long-form story. Short clips may capture attention, but the essence comes from the bigger picture—and in the same way, each person's life is a brief but meaningful scene in eternity's narrative.The dialogue turns to how Jesus embodied efficiency and clarity, never wasting words or allowing distractions to throw off His stride. His life is described as a “short form” packed with infinite weight, compressed into three years of ministry that carried eternal consequences. Every moment, whether a rebuke, a parable, or a simple phrase, was delivered with precision, reminding us that true power comes through alignment with purpose.Another key theme is identity in the Spirit. Blaspheming the Holy Ghost is reframed not as mocking, but as rejecting one's true identity of oneness with God. To deny the Spirit within is to live under a false self. By contrast, embracing accountability for that divine breath—the same Spirit breathed into humanity from the beginning—shifts the focus from chasing victories to simply being who we already are. Recognition brings both freedom and responsibility.Ultimately, the conversation challenges incomplete gospels that emphasize only the cross while overlooking the transformative power of Christ's words and way of life. Cleansing, it is argued, comes not from ritual alone but through receiving the words spoken. The call is clear: life may feel like a vapor, but in embracing the “I am” reality, we live with urgency, efficiency, and accountability—becoming living testimonies in God's grand design.

Imagine losing a team member who's been with you for years. Beyond the obvious recruiting costs, you're facing a cascade of hidden consequences: the training burden on your remaining team, eroding morale as staff wonder if they should be looking elsewhere, and patients noticing unfamiliar faces at every visit. That's the reality of turnover, and it's far more costly than most dentists realize.Drawing from my own practice experience—nine years of remarkable stability followed by a challenging period of departures after COVID—I've discovered that reducing turnover doesn't require complex systems or extravagant perks. It comes down to three fundamental principles that are surprisingly easy to implement but transformative in their impact.Recognition sits at the heart of retention. When I committed to giving each team member two specific compliments weekly (what I call "filling buckets"), I was shocked to discover how many quiet contributors I'd been overlooking. Creating systematic appreciation—sharing patient reviews, implementing token recognition programs, celebrating achievements—transforms recognition from an occasional afterthought to a cultural cornerstone.Regular one-on-ones provide the psychological safety team members need to express concerns before they become resignation letters. These structured conversations aren't just problem-solving sessions; they're relationship-building opportunities that demonstrate you value each person's perspective. I've consistently found that periods of team unrest coincided with lapses in these critical meetings.Finally, investing in your team's growth and creating a workplace where people genuinely enjoy their colleagues builds remarkable loyalty. People will tolerate significant workplace challenges when they love the people they work with and feel they're continuously developing professionally.Ready to transform your practice into one where people want to stay?

In explaining this decision, Prime Minister Mark Carney released a statement which read, "Canada recognises the State of Palestine and offers our partnership in building the promise of a peaceful future for both the State of Palestine and the State of Israel."Just over a week later, U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu unveiled an alternative way forward: a 20-point plan they say would end the war in Gaza, but falls well short of creating a pathway for the creation of a Palestinian state. Today, we're talking about the creation of a Palestinian state, as well as the promise, failure, and uncertain future of the two-state solution.

The Beaverton Sobriety Opportunity for Beginning Recovery treatment court is open to Beaverton or Washington County residents who have at least one prior Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants conviction and who agree to the program’s strict requirements. About 200 people have graduated from B-SOBR since its launch in 2011.    Participants must agree to wear an ankle monitor and submit to biweekly testing to ensure their sobriety during the first few months. They must also attend regular meetings with their case manager and the presiding judge to monitor their progress for the 20 months or so it typically takes to complete the program. Beaverton police officers also make monthly visits to participants’ homes, which can help reframe negative interactions they may have had previously with law enforcement, and engage family members or others in the home to support the participant’s recovery.    The All Rise Treatment Court Institute selected the B-SOBR program in January 2025 as one of 10 treatment courts to serve as a national model for new treatment courts for the next two years.    We rebroadcast an interview which first aired in March 2025 about the B-SOBR program featuring B-SOBR case manager David Finke, police liaison Officer Michel Wilson and Mauricio Molina, a recent graduate of the program.

My guest is Dr. Christof Koch, PhD, a pioneering researcher on the topic of consciousness, an investigator at the Allen Institute for Brain Science and the chief scientist at the Tiny Blue Dot Foundation. We discuss the neuroscience of consciousness—how it arises in our brain, how it shapes our identity and how we can modify and expand it. Dr. Koch explains how we all experience life through a unique “perception box,” which holds our beliefs, our memories and thus our biases about reality. We discuss how human consciousness is changed by meditation, non-sleep deep rest, psychedelics, dreams and virtual reality. We also discuss neuroplasticity (rewiring the brain), flow states and the ever-changing but also persistent aspect of the “collective consciousness” of humanity.
