Because of the government shutdown, the Bureau of Labor Statistics will not release its monthly unemployment and jobs survey today. But that's probably not a big deal to President Donald Trump, who has apparently decided that the best statistics are the ones that either say what he wants to hear, or are simply never heard at all. The most expensive extreme weather events, which facilities are creating the most pollution, quarterly reports, incidents of domestic terrorism, the number of people who need food assistance…these are all statistics Americans need to know. And these are all forms of data under attack by the Trump administration. And this started long before the shutdown. America has been a world leader at collecting data on everything from the number of bison living in Plains states to the divorce rate – but our data supremacy might be coming to an end. And that's really, really bad, for reasons we might not even know yet. So to find out more about the stats we're losing, and what else we're losing in the process, we spoke to Denice Ross. She's a senior fellow at the Federation of American Scientists and former U.S. Chief Data Scientist for the Biden administration.And in headlines, President Donald Trump determines the US is in an “armed conflict” with drug cartels, the Trump administration punishes a slew of blue states by cancelling nearly $8-billion in grants for their clean energy projects, and the lastest update in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case.Show Notes:Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Drawing on insights from Dr. Jim Bob Haggerston's entrepreneurial journey, they discuss the dangers of burnout, the importance of hiring and developing strong number twos, and the balance between skill and desire when building a team.

#OZWATCH: JEREMY ZAKIS, NEW SOUTH WALES. #FRIENDSOFHISTORYDEBATINGSOCIETY. SUMMARY: Meteorologists rely on experience as models fail, citing oceans being one degree warmer.

Whether you're a business leader, entrepreneur, or someone reinventing yourself, the way you think about innovation will shape your future. Innovation isn't about guessing or chasing shiny ideas. It's about having a process, the right tools, and the discipline to test, learn, and scale what creates value. In this episode, I sit down with Alex Osterwalder—one of the world's most influential strategy and innovation thinkers, inventor of the Business Model Canvas, bestselling author, and CEO of Strategyzer. Alex has changed how the world approaches business design. Millions of entrepreneurs and leaders use his tools to innovate with clarity instead of chaos. We dive deep into the fundamental mistakes both large corporations and startups make: falling in love with ideas, building too much too fast, and only later discovering customers don't care. Perhaps most valuable is Alex's framework for balancing core business operations ("exploit") with future-focused innovation ("explore"). This practical approach helps organizations avoid the common trap of applying existing business rules to innovation projects—a mistake that almost guarantees failure. Whether you're leading a Fortune 500 company, building a startup, or reinventing your own career, this episode offers actionable insights to make innovation less of a gamble and more of a repeatable process. What You'll Learn From Volleyball to Strategy: How Alex's unlikely journey shaped his obsession with creating and simplifying tools for business. Why Business Plans Fail: The origin of the Business Model Canvas and why structure beats guesswork. AI & Innovation: What AI changes (everything) and what it doesn't (the fundamentals). Portfolio Thinking: Why great companies run many small bets, kill weak ones fast, and scale the winners. Avoiding Zombie Projects: How to spot and stop initiatives that drain resources but deliver no evidence of value. Systems, Not Slogans: Why excitement isn't enough—innovation needs the right structures, incentives, and processes to thrive. Personal Success Strategy: Alex's reflections on what success means beyond growth and money, and why defining your own metrics of success is essential.

What’s the biggest shift you wish you’d made sooner? What advice would you give your younger self before 30? In this special reflection, Jay opens up about the lessons he wishes he’d known before turning 30, insights that could have spared him time, energy, and unnecessary stress. Now, at 38, he shares eight counterintuitive truths from psychology and human behavior that have reshaped the way he lives, loves, and works. From realizing that people think about us far less than we imagine, to understanding that burnout comes more from a lack of meaning than from long hours, Jay invites us to reexamine the subtle habits and hidden fears that quietly drain our lives. These aren’t just ideas, they’re practical tools to help you stop overthinking, release old fears, and make choices that align with the life you truly want. In this episode, you’ll learn: How to Rely on Discipline Over Motivation How to See Most Fears as Echoes of the Past How to Use Belonging to Fuel Lasting Change How to Prevent Burnout by Finding Meaning How to Stop Your Brain From Distorting the Future Growth isn’t about waiting for the “right” moment—it’s about shifting how we see ourselves and the choices we make daily. The lessons Jay shares are powerful reminders that every season, good or bad, is temporary, and that true peace comes from living a life of meaning, not perfection.

In this episode, I'm joined again by my co-host, Demetrius (“D") Parker, as we continue our Coworker Chemistry series. Last time, we looked at the high-energy types (3, 7, and 8). This week, we shift gears to talk about another powerful trio: Types 1, 2, and 6, commonly known as the dutiful types.These three strategies bring such a strong sense of responsibility and group cohesion to their work and teams, though they each express it in different ways. In our conversation, we covered:Type 1 (Striving to Feel Perfect): integrity, high standards, and the pressure of an inner critic.Type 2 (Striving to Feel Connected): empathy, connection, and the challenge of people-pleasing.Type 6 (Striving to Feel Secure): loyalty, risk-awareness, and the courage it takes to ask hard questions.We also dig into how these types can complement one another, where they might clash, and what growth looks like for each...from turning “the way” into “a way,” to setting clear boundaries, to transforming fear into collaboration.Whether you identify with a 1, 2, or 6 (or work with someone who does), I think you'll find this episode full of both practical insights and real-life examples you can take back to your team.What You'll Hear in This EpisodeThe strengths and blind spots of Types 1, 2, and 6.Why these types are often the backbone of teams.Stories and analogies (including the “Mafia boss” and the six's “BS meter”) that bring these strategies to life.Practical tips for collaboration, leadership, and personal growth.And stay tuned! Our next episode will cover the remaining group: Types 4, 5, and 9.D and I both facilitate workshops on behalf of Enneagram MBA.

President Trump wants a new census that excludes undocumented immigrants and reflects post-election data. But experts say such a change would require congressional approval and disrupt years of planning for the 2030 count. Here to consider whether the proposal is even feasible and how it could reshape the $2.8 trillion in federal funding tied to census data are Meeta Anand and Howard Feinberg. Ms. Anand is Senior Director, Census and Data Equity, at The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights.

If every new hire feels like it hijacks your entire month, this episode is for you. Today on Recruiting Conversations, I walk you through how to create a structured onboarding system that removes you from the center without removing your presence. Because if you're still doing 90 percent of the onboarding work yourself, you're not just overwhelmed. You're the bottleneck. But it doesn't have to stay that way. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Introduction – Why onboarding feels overwhelming and why that's actually a systems issue [01:00] The Real Problem – Leaders treating onboarding like a one-week event instead of a repeatable system [02:00] Introducing the 4P Framework – People, Process, Playbook, Personalization [03:00] P1: People Assign ownership for tech, CRM, marketing, culture, support Move from shared ownership to clear ownership Use peer mentors and onboarding coordinators [03:30] P2: Process Map out day 1 through day 90 Use tools like CRMs, Trello, shared docs to organize the flow Filter every step through these questions: Does this build clarity? Confidence? Connection? [04:30] P3: Playbook Document what you say and do so others can repeat it Include logins, workflows, rhythm calendars, and short videos When it's not written, it's not real [05:30] P4: Personalization Welcome notes, calls, gift boxes, and personal check-ins Structure creates consistency, personalization creates belief [06:30] The Pushback – You say you don't have time to build this. But you don't have time not to. [07:00] Start Small – Use your next hire to document everything you already do [08:00] Beyond Tasks – Onboarding is not just about information. It's about belief Did I make the right decision? Do I belong here? Can I trust this team? [08:30] Final Challenge – Build a 30-day onboarding play. Start with what you already do, then improve it Key Takeaways If You're Doing It All, You're the Bottleneck – Scale happens when systems replace memory Structure Doesn't Kill Culture – The right systems free you up to lead with presence Clarity Creates Confidence – Documented onboarding builds momentum faster than ad hoc training Don't Just Transfer Knowledge – Transfer belief, identity, and purpose Use Every Hire to Improve the Process – Each round gives you a better playbook for the next one The best leaders don't just recruit well. They onboard with purpose. They build systems that scale their time, protect their culture, and create confident, connected team members from day one.

Let's remove you as the bottleneck and build a system that lasts.
In this episode, I share why I had to build a business that doesn't rely on me being in the center of everything. Back when I was scaling to 6 figures, I thought the only way to grow was to do it all myself, serving clients, creating content, and running the backend of my business. But what it really led to was burnout. I realized if I wanted freedom and sustainability, I had to step out of the weeds and create a business model that worked without me. Inside this episode, you'll hear: How I created a life-first business model that works around my family obligations. The systems and team support I put in place to stop doing everything myself. How I use AI in my agency so my team can create content for my brand.

Veteran astrologer and Mystical Messages host Hilary Harley outlines what to expect cosmically during September 2025. After an energetically calm month in August, September wastes no time making waves with the final two eclipses of the year. The first eclipse occurs on Sunday, September 7th. A Full Moon Lunar eclipse in Pisces and Virgo pushes us to surrender what we cannot control. Rely on wellness and work practices to manage what unfolds, especially as Change Agent Uranus turns retrograde right before this eclipse. Expect the unexpected. This is not necessarily negative; however, Virgo is about efficiency and will streamline your life by clearing any one or any facet that is not working in your best interests. The Full Moon in Pisces calls us to dream, plan, prepare, surrender. Repeat. The second eclipse occurs on Sunday, September 21st. On the eve of the Fall Equinox, this New Moon Solar eclipse occurs at the final degree of Virgo, emphasizing healthy routines for body, mind and soul. As the Sun enters Libra on Monday the 22nd, you are invited to bring balance, peace, harmony and beauty into your life. Remember to factor in your own needs with those of all others around you.

Daniel & Shawn dive into Remitly, the digital remittance platform aiming to disrupt a $2 trillion global market. After years of prioritizing customer acquisition and corridor expansion over profits, Remitly is now approaching a critical inflection point, one where scale, margin leverage, and cash generation could unlock a new phase of investor confidence. But there are risks as well: crypto-native challengers, regulatory uncertainty, and broader concerns about the remittance industry all raise the question of whether the upside is worth the risk. Here, they unpack Remitly's moat, including its direct payout network, risk engine, and customer trust, and assess whether these factors are enough to fend off cheaper, faster payment rails, such as stablecoins. They walk through the company's unit economics and what the valuation model implies under both steady-state and high-growth scenarios. Along the way, they compare Remitly's customer lock-in strategy to Booking.com, examine the remittance corridor dynamics in India, the Philippines, and Latin America, and debate whether this is a misunderstood fintech with enduring staying power or a product ripe for crypto disruption. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN 00:00 – Intro 01:08 – How the remittance market works 01:50 – Why Western Union struggles to compete with Remitly 02:16 – Why and how Remitly was founded 04:48 – What risks Remitly faces 05:01 – How stablecoins could disrupt the remittance industry 11:34 – What competitive advantages Remitly has 17:16 – What digital-first companies compete with Remitly 24:37 – Why scale is everything in the payments sector 27:56 – Whether Remitly is attractively valued at its current levels 29:27 – Whether Shawn & Daniel add RELY to The Intrinsic Value Portfolio *Disclaimer: Slight timestamp discrepancies may occur due to podcast platform differences.

Episode 2677- Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss questioning the reasons behind slower weight loss for women, lab-grown meat, and fitness trackers. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/07/questioning-the-reasons-episode-2677 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Questioning the Reasons Vinnie is learning a lot about making kombucha. (3:00) He has discovered that he can reduce the sugar in it and still maintain great flavor. Reasons for women losing weight slower than men, even on a ketogenic diet. (9:00) Frontiers in Nutrition gathered the metadata, and this is what they found. Testosterone makes it easier to mobilize fat. Variations in the hormonal biochemistry occur in most women, making losing weight a larger challenge. (15:00) Low-carb/keto still works for women, but can be at a different rate, so consistency is key. Lab-grown meat. (21:00) They discuss the difference between lab-grown and fake meat (like Impossible Burger). They discuss the marketing and messaging behind the motivation. Climate change is a motivation, and they discuss inconsistencies in the argument. (28:00) Lab-grown meat still contains chemicals and would challenge the environment for different reasons. (37:00) The definition of an “ultra-processed” food: lab-grown and imitation meat qualify as this. You can watch Vinnie's documentary “Beyond Impossible” to learn more. (42:00) Fitness trackers. Vinnie isn't always a huge fan, but if it keeps people active and cognizant of their goals, he's fine with them. (44:00) The unfortunate thing is that they are not always accurate. They don't always work well for obese people, and the algorithm was designed based on thin, healthier people. (46:00) Don't get mad at the companies, just don't make yourself dependent on trackers. Rely on yourself! They discuss examples of what they mean by this. It's also not great to become obsessed with the data. That can have its downside as well.
