Has enterprise AI finally reached the point where impressive demonstrations are no longer enough? In this episode, I speak with Murali Swaminathan, CTO at Freshworks, about the growing pressure on AI investments to deliver measurable business value. Murali has over 30 years of enterprise software experience, including roles at ServiceNow and CA, and now leads engineering and architecture teams at Freshworks. Murali believes the AI hype cycle is being replaced by an accountability cycle. Buyers want to understand reliability, governance, total cost of ownership, traceability, and the return generated by every deployment. They also want the ability to audit decisions, override outcomes, and use feedback to improve performance. Productivity alone provides an incomplete measure. Within service operations, companies can examine time to resolution, the volume of repetitive work automated, the number of issues completed without human intervention, and the quality of the employee's experience. Murali describes the difference between service-level agreements and experience-level agreements. Resolving a ticket within two minutes means very little if the employee's problem remains. The better question is whether AI completed the workflow and restored the person's ability to work. We also discuss why mid-market and agile enterprises provide a demanding test for AI. These companies have complex requirements but cannot absorb lengthy implementation programs, unclear pricing, or failed experiments. Murali recommends beginning with a limited process, measuring the result, establishing whether it can be repeated, and expanding only after it has proved reliable. Architecture plays an important role. Murali argues that ease of use begins beneath the interface. Configuration-led platforms can be upgraded as new capabilities arrive, while heavily customized systems can leave companies trapped on older releases. Autonomous service operations do not require removing people from every process. Murali uses the example of a printer incident. AI can read the ticket, classify the problem, route it to IT or facilities, and apply an automated fix when a trusted process exists. People retain responsibility for unusual, uncertain, or higher-risk decisions. Scaling this model requires cloud infrastructure that respects regional data residency, privacy, encryption, routing, and audit requirements. AI requests and diagnostic logs must remain within the correct geographic and regulatory boundaries. The conversation concludes with engineering skills. AI coding tools can generate software quickly, but engineers must understand architecture, usability, testing, and customer requirements. Companies also need rules determining which code can be reviewed by AI and which changes require human approval. Is your company measuring whether AI genuinely improves service operations, or is it counting deployments and calling that progress? Listen to the episode and share your thoughts with me.

Today's guest is Gene King, an Access Architect and founder of Atlas Strategic Access, based in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. With over 50 years in business, Gene has founded, scaled, and successfully exited 10 companies and currently operates six active businesses, including Sequence Real Estate, Invest America (an EB-5 immigration investment firm), and Twist Elbow. Roy and Gene, friends of over 12 years since meeting at a Darren Hardy event, dig into the origin story of Gene's very first business at military school, the lesson that reshaped how he handles bullies and pressure for the rest of his life, and why being diagnosed with ADHD at 65 explained a career pattern of exiting companies too early. Gene shares his philosophy on partnerships, why he's never had a verbal argument with a business partner in 22 companies, how he handles conflict at home versus in business, and the mentor's advice that shaped his obsession with knowing his cash position at all times. The conversation closes with the role Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich has played in Gene's life since his early twenties, and his belief that the universe, not active pursuit, brings him his best opportunities.   ⏱️ TIMESTAMP 0:02 - Welcome to the Speaking Podcast, intro to Gene King 0:48 - Gene's background: 10 exits, six active companies, and 12+ years of friendship with Roy 1:31 - Gene's first business: protecting freshmen from hazing at The Citadel 3:50 - The lesson that changed everything: "you can't kill me, sir" 5:14 - Navigating good and bad business partners over 22 companies 5:57 - Discovering ADHD at 65 and why he exited companies too early 7:14 - How Gene structures his day across five to six companies 9:38 - Expanding Invest America's EB-5 program into Canada and Nigeria 11:11 - Why tracking everything matters, and the wealth found in awkward conversations 13:22 - How Gene handles conflict with business partners 16:59 - "Money solves all problems" and a mentor's advice on what really matters 18:10 - Terminating partners and employees with humanity and honesty 19:36 - The five P's: people, process, planning, prayer, passion 20:50 - Balancing patience and persistence as an entrepreneur 21:37 - Resolving disagreements in 50/50 and unequal partnerships 23:34 - Why "cash is king" became Gene's guiding financial principle 25:33 - How Gene decides which businesses to pursue next 27:12 - Discovering Think and Grow Rich in his early twenties 29:34 - Napoleon Hill's mastermind principle and never asking for something for nothing 31:13 - Where to find Gene King and his companies   About Gene King Gene King is an Access Architect, founder of Atlas Strategic Access, and founder of Sequence Holdings, based in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina.

Rajeev raised his voice.Hi: "गुझिया ठीक रहेगी, यह हमारी परंपरा है," मीरा ने उसकी बात काटी।En: "Gujiyas will be fine; it's our tradition," Meera interrupted him.Hi: इस गर्मा-गर्म माहौल में, बाकी खरीदार भी उनके झगड़े का हिस्सा बन गए।En: In this heated atmosphere, other shoppers also became part of their argument.Hi: हर कोई उनकी ओर देख रहा था।En: Everyone was looking at them.Hi: अनया को अपने भाई-बहन की चिंता होने लगी, उसने महसूस किया कि उन्हें साथ मिलकर आसान और खुशियों भरा निर्णय लेना होगा।En: Anaya began to worry about her siblings, realizing that they needed to come together for a simple and happy decision.Hi: "ठीक है," अनया ने हाथ ऊपर उठाते हुए कहा, "हम गुझिया और हलवा दोनों लेंगे, और साथ में फ्रेंच फ्राइज भी।"En: "Alright," Anaya said, raising her hands, "we will get both gujiyas and halwa, along with French fries."Hi: सबने उसकी बात पर सहमति जताई, हालांकि थोड़ी अनिच्छा के साथ।En: Everyone agreed to her suggestion, although with slight reluctance.Hi: सुपरमार्केट से बाहर निकलते हुए, तीनों के चेहरों पर एक मुस्कुराहट थी।En: As they exited the supermarket, smiles appeared on their faces.Hi: अनया ने महसूस किया कि सब पर एक जैसा दबाव डालने से ज्यादा आवश्यक है कि वह थोड़ा पीछे हटे और उन्हें भी निर्णयों में शामिल करे।En: Anaya realized that it was more important to include others in decisions rather than putting pressure on everyone.Hi: राजीव और मीरा ने भी समझ लिया कि व्यक्तित्व की परछाई में रहने से बेहतर है खुल कर अपनी भावनाएँ साझा करना।En: Rajeev and Meera also understood that sharing emotions openly is better than living in the shadow of personalities.Hi: अंततः, वो उनके रिश्तों की मिठास लेकर घर लौटे, ताकि अगली सुबह जब राखी बांधी जाए, उनके बीच स्नेह के धागे और भी मजबूत हों।En: In the end, they returned home with the sweetness of their relationship, so that the next morning when Rakhi is tied, the threads of affection between them would be even stronger.Hi: कहते हैं ना, स्वादिष्ट डिनर नहीं, पर दिल मिलाना ज़रूरी है।En: As the saying goes, it's not the delicious dinner but the bonding of hearts that's essential.

Los Angeles urban development faces severe housing scarcity and bureaucratic strain while pioneering polycentric node architecture across 88 cities.Los Angeles attracts creative talent with its promise of personal reinvention, yet physical boundaries and rigid municipal codes hold its built environment static. Developers face multi-year entitlement delays and fractured county leadership while trying to expand housing and fortify against rising wildfire risks. Resolving this urban dilemma requires moving past single-family sprawl toward large-scale destination planning.Architect Alex Yuen and co-host Libo Li examine the physical and administrative friction blocking Los Angeles urban development with guest Sam Pepper, principal at Padaro Development Group and host of the Building LA podcast. Designed for practicing architects and architecture students, this episode evaluates how LA can transition from car-centric sprawl into a network of high-density destination nodes.### Key Takeaways* Spanish-style courtyard apartments and bungalow courts offer manageable middle-scale density without destroying single-family neighborhood character.* Administrative fragmentation across 88 distinct cities in LA County creates conflicting zoning interpretations that stall entitlement processes for years.* Los Angeles operates as a coarse-grained polycentric matrix where real estate value concentrates in destination nodes rather than continuous walkable streets.* Cohesive commercial nodes require single-developer anchors or unified property ownership, whereas fragmented parcel ownership leads to retail corridor decay.* Building along urban-wildland interfaces requires structural fortification against inevitable wildfire threats rather than attempting complete hazard elimination.### Who This Is ForArchitects, urban planners, real estate developers, and architecture students analyzing municipal housing policy, polycentric master planning, and climate-resilient design.### Episode Chapters00:00 - Why Los Angeles Resists Transformation01:03 - From London Architecture to LA Development04:53 - Hollywood Cachet and South Bay Aerospace07:43 - Physical Constraints and Byzantine Bureaucracy12:38 - County Governance and 88 Competing Cities18:11 - Managing Encampments and Wildfire Threats19:55 - Courtyard Apartments and Manageable Density22:38 - Polycentric Nodes Versus Jane Jacobs Walks27:27 - Single-Developer Anchors and Asian Urbanism33:21 - Personal Expression and High-Wire Nature40:41 - Padaro Group's Destination Development Model44:47 - Optimism for Los Angeles's Urban Future### Resources Mentioned* [Sam Pepper](https://www.linkedin.com/in/samhpepper/)* [Building LA Podcast](https://www.buildinglapodcast.com/)* [Padaro Development Group](https://www.padarodevelopment.com/)* [Norman Foster's Gherkin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gherkin)* [Lincoln Property Company](https://lpc.com/)* [The Grove](https://thegrovela.com/)* [The Row DTLA](https://www.rowdtla.com/)* [Larchmont Boulevard](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larchmont,_Los_Angeles)* [Third Street Promenade](Third Street Promenade)* [Hudson Yards](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hudson_Yards,_Manhattan)### Subscribe & ConnectSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/3zYvX2lRZOpHcZW41WGVrpApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/most-podern-podcast/id1725756164Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@MostPodernInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/most.podernLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/most-podern#LAArchitecture #UrbanDevelopment #MostPodern #UrbanPlanning #HousingDensity

Does your MSP business totally rely on you? Can you take time off and know that existing customer issues are solved and more importantly new business can be brought in, WITHOUT you having to be there. Many MSP founders do NOT have this luxury. Even after many years of running their companies, the business still relies on them. Within this podcast, I outline the steps you need to take as a founder to build a team and business that can operate and grow without you. Chapters 00:41 - The core challenge of building an MSP that does not depend on the founder. 02:18 - Speaker's background running a SaaS/MSP business starting in 2005. 03:30 - Evaluating personal strengths and weaknesses (using tools like the DISC test). 05:22 - Identifying tasks and critical decisions that still rely directly on the founder. 06:41 - The importance of documenting standard operating procedures for consistency. 07:54 - Delegation vs. involvement: Learning to let go day-to-day. 08:30 - The rule of three: Automating or delegating repetitive tasks. 09:21 - 10:43: Resolving sales process issues when onboarding new salespeople. 10:43 - Cultivating a corporate culture centered around values and customer satisfaction.12:12 - How detailed operational processes impact business valuations and M&A due diligence. 13:51 - Empowering managers with authority and allowing them to learn from mistakes. 17:00 - Addressing sales as a core organizational weakness rather than just relying on referrals. 20:13 - Shifting expectations to build a leadership team capable of challenging decisions. 21:44 - Reframing sales for technical teams and leveraging customer service for referrals. 25:38 - Measuring business health while away and bridging operational gaps with external experts. 26:59 - Personal reflections on budget alignment failures vs. modern team autonomy. 27:57 - Inspirational story regarding domestic abuse law campaigns and closing remarks. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUBSCRIBE and hit the ALERT button for upcoming videos!

Daily Bitachon: Erev Tisha B'Av Message Welcome to Daily Bitachon for our Erev Tisha B'Av message. As we prepare for Tisha B'Av, one of our essential obligations is to trace the roots of our exile—to look into the sources and understand why we fell and went into Galut . 1. The Root Cause: Disdain for Torah In Midrash Rabbah (in the introductions, and specifically where Rav Huna and Rav Yirmeya quote Shmuel bar Yitzchak), we find a striking statement: Hashem was willing to forgo punishment for the three cardinal sins—idolatry, promiscuity, and bloodshed—but He did not forgo punishment for the disdain of Torah ( Miyuso shel Torah ). This is explicitly derived from the prophecy in Yirmiyahu: "For what reason did the land perish..." (Yirmiyahu 9:11) The verse does not say the land was destroyed because of idolatry, immorality, or murder. Hashem explicitly answers: "...Because they have forsaken My Torah." The Midrash continues in the name of Rav Chiyya bar Abba, quoting the verse: "They have forsaken Me, and My Torah they did not keep" ( Yirmiyahu 16:11 ). Upon which Hashem says: הַלְוַאי אוֹתִי עָזָבוּ וְתוֹרָתִי שָׁמָרוּ "If only they had forsaken Me, but still kept My Torah! For the light within it would have brought them back to the good." Resolving the Contradiction This presents an obvious problem: The Gemara in Yoma (9b) explicitly states that the First Beit HaMikdash was destroyed because of the three cardinal sins! Furthermore, these three sins carry the death penalty—how could neglecting Torah study be considered a worse trigger for destruction? Rav Aharon Kotler zt"l ( Mishnat Rabbi Aharon , Vol. 1, p. 28) answers: The Power of Remedy: The three cardinal sins are undeniably grave. However, as long as the Jewish people engaged in Torah study, Hashem delayed their punishment. Why? Because the Torah possesses an inherent light that eventually guides a person back to Teshuva (repentance). Loss of the Shield: Once they abandoned and held disdain for Torah study, they discarded the very tool that could save them. Without the antidote, their sins stood unaddressed, and their doom was sealed. Rav Elchanan Wasserman's Mashal: In warfare, two armies may trade blows, but if one side manages to destroy the enemy's armory or airfields, the target becomes completely defenseless. We are in a constant war with the Yetzer Hara (evil inclination). Hashem created the Yetzer Hara , but He created Torah as its antidote ( "Bara'ti Yetzer, Bara'ti Torah Tavlin" ). Abandoning Torah means disarming ourselves in the middle of battle. 2. The Battle with the Sar shel Esav The ongoing historical struggle between Yaakov and Esav is captured in the all-night wrestling match between Yaakov Avinu and the guardian angel of Esav ( Sar shel Esav ). The Timing: Sefarim point out that this wrestling match took place on the eve of Tisha B'Av . The Remint in the Text: The Torah notes that the angel injured the גִּיד הַנָּשֶׁה ( Gid HaNasheh ): גִּיד ( Gid ) hints at the three fast days: ג (Gimmel) = Tzom Gedaliah (3rd of Tishrei) י (Yud) = Asara B'Tevet (10th of Tevet) ד (Dalet) = Shiva Asar B'Tammuz (17th of Tammuz, the 4th month) את ( HaNasheh ) acronym for Tisha B'Av. ת שעה א ב Why Attack Yaakov? Notice that the angel did not attack Avraham (who represents Chesed ) or Yitzchak (who represents Tefillah ). He attacked Yaakov , who represents Torah . Esav's angel targeted the ultimate weapon of the Jewish people. Yaakov's Body (Talmidei Chachamim) --> Could not harm Yaakov's Thighs (Tomchei D'Oraita) --> Successfully struck As the Chafetz Chaim explains (citing the Zohar), the legs/thighs symbolize Tomchei D'Oraita —the supporters who uphold the Torah. The angel realized he could not destroy the Talmidei Chachamim directly, so he tried to weaken the supporters' appreciation for Torah. The Modern Reframe Current Support: Baruch Hashem , in our generation, we are witnessing unprecedented support for Torah learning globally, with initiatives raising hundreds of millions of dollars to sustain Eretz Yisrael's centers of learning. Rav Yaakov Hillel's Insight: When governments reduce funding for Torah institutions, people naturally worry. But Rav Yaakov Hillel offers a profound reframe: Hashem wants the Torah to be sustained purely by those who cherish it—the Charedim v'Dvar Hashem . He is elevating the purity and stature of Torah support. 3. Mourning and the Absence of Torah Why did Esav wait to attack Yaakov? יִקְרְבוּ יְמֵי אֵבֶל אָבִי וְאַהַרְגָה אֶת יַעֲקֹב אָחִי "The days of mourning for my father draw near; then I will kill my brother Yaakov." (Bereshit 27:41) Classic commentators explain: As long as Yaakov was immersed in Torah study, the rule of "Hakol kol Yaakov" applied, and Esav had no power over him. Esav specifically waited for a time of mourning ( Aveilut ) , because a mourner is forbidden from studying Torah. He calculated that during an absence of Torah study, Yaakov would be vulnerable to attack. On Tisha B'Av—the ultimate day of national mourning—we do not engage in standard Torah study. Yet on this very day of darkness, the light of Mashiach is born to turn our mourning into joy. 4. The Halacha of Netilat Yadayim There are only two days in the year when we do not wash our hands up to the wrist for morning Netilat Yadayim (washing only up to the knuckles): Tisha B'Av and Yom Kippur . Day The Spiritual Reality Why We Wash Only to the Knuckles Tisha B'Av Peak power of the Sitra Achra (Esav) The spiritual impurity ( Tuma ) is so thick that standard washing cannot completely remove it; we do only the bare minimum required for the morning. Yom Kippur Peak power of Kedusha (Holiness) Esav is banished ( Se'ir La'Azazel ). The atmosphere is so elevated that impurity has no foothold—only a minimal wash is necessary. Conclusion Our goal this Tisha B'Av is to bridge these two realities: to transform the heavy, vulnerable energy of Tisha B'Av into the pure, triumphant elevated state of Yom Kippur. By recognizing that Torah learning is our ultimate lifeline and protective weapon, may we strengthen our dedication to Limud Torah and its support, and merit seeing the ultimate transformation of this day into a festival of comfort and redemption.

Why do so many physicians keep pushing through exhaustion—even when they know it's unsustainable? In the final episode of our cognitive dissonance series, we're moving from theory to practical application. Once you recognize the internal conflict between your values, identity, and daily reality, what comes next? This week, we're exploring the common ways physicians cope with cognitive dissonance—from overworking and emotional suppression to comparison and perfectionism—and why these strategies may provide short-term relief while fueling long-term burnout. You'll also learn healthier, evidence-based ways to create greater alignment between your work, your values, and your well-being without sacrificing your compassion or commitment to medicine. If you've ever thought: "This is just how medicine is." "Everyone else seems to be handling it better." "I just need to work harder." ...this episode is for you. In this episode, we discuss: What cognitive dissonance looks like in everyday physician life Why overworking, perfectionism, and productivity can become coping mechanisms How emotional suppression quietly contributes to burnout The hidden impact of comparing yourself to colleagues and social media Why many physicians disconnect from their own needs The difference between temporary coping and long-term healing How self-compassion reduces burnout without lowering your standards Why psychological flexibility is essential for physician wellness A simple "Alignment Inventory" exercise to identify where your life feels out of balance Practical ways to create healthier boundaries and reconnect with what matters most Cognitive dissonance isn't proof that you're failing—it's often the first sign that something important needs your attention. Greater awareness creates the opportunity to choose a different path.

Congress appeared to be closing in on several major issues last week, before the White House shifted the dynamics in a way that could change what comes next. Now lawmakers are reassessing both timing and substance. For a look at where things stand, we turn to Mitchell Miller, Capitol Hill correspondent for WTOP.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today David gives his answer to whether the following statement in the Declaration of Independence is more influenced by enlightenment hubris than sound Christian theology: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights."

Zendesk went private two weeks before ChatGPT launched, and the moment it came out, it was obvious that customer service would never be the same again. Shashi Upadhyay, head of product, engineering, and AI at Zendesk, joins Craig Smith to explain what the company has built since: a self-improving AI system that doesn't just resolve tickets but learns from every failure, studies what the human did to fix it, and gets measurably better over time. He calls it the resolution learning loop, and for Zendesk's best customers, it's already resolving 70 to 90% of incoming tickets autonomously, up from the 10 to 20% that chatbots managed just a few years ago. The conversation goes deep on the engineering decisions that actually matter: why hallucination is a feature, not a bug, and why the real challenge is knowing exactly when to switch from creative AI to deterministic code; why Zendesk acquired Forethought and what made their approach to going live in days rather than months so valuable; and why, despite all the momentum, Upadhyay estimates we are only about 5% through the adoption of AI in customer service. The bottleneck isn't the technology, it's the change management required to restructure how human and AI workforces operate together. His vision of the end state is striking: personal AI agents talking directly to enterprise AI agents, resolving 90% of issues instantly, while humans focus exclusively on the complex, high-value interactions that genuinely require them.

This is a recording of Rabbi David Kasher's weekly parsha study class from 5.27.2026, co-sponsored by Hadar and IKAR.

Lyn sits down with sex counselor Fran Frye to dismantle the common misconceptions surrounding male and female sexual desires. Drawing from her personal journey as a rape survivor turned advocate, Fran offers a profound look into the world of problematic sexual behaviours and the distinct frameworks of spontaneous desire versus responsive desire. KEY TAKEAWAYS Men more frequently experience spontaneous desire (instantly ready out of the blue), while women often experience responsive desire, which requires warmth, curiosity, and lead-up to activate. A vital piece of anatomical education is that vaginal lubrication is a natural physiological preparation for penetration, but it does not automatically mean a woman is psychologically turned on or ready for sex. To combat boredom and explore novelty safely, couples can utilise a "yes, no, maybe" list online or via social media to find creative, mutually comfortable ways to connect/ spice things up. Rather than viewing it as a mere tool for performance, men naturally seek emotional connection through their sexuality; understanding the erotic nervous system is crucial for male emotional regulation and well-being. BEST MOMENTS "We are not dildos. We aren't meant to just be erect and expected to be ready to quote-on-quote perform. There is some lead-up and connection that is required." "Women often find themselves bored in sex faster than men do... I find that it's the sex that they're having is what they're bored with." "A regulated man is safer than any weapon we sell in the name of protection, and I find that sex and regulation is very important to the betterment of men." "Communication is lubrication." ABOUT THE GUEST - Fran Frye – Sex Educator, Counsellor & Clinician Fran Frye focus's on supporting men as they unpack their sexuality within a patriarchal culture that often labels them as dangerous, defective, or emotionally closed off. She helps dismantle these narratives through curiosity, empathy and practical tools that foster healthier relationships with the body, partners and self, helping them build greater empathy, emotional depth, and responsibility in their intimate lives.

Hello to you listening in Da Nang, Vietnam!   Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga. As a storyteller I know that conflict is the driving force of any story. No conflict - no story. A character can struggle externally with outside forces like a person or situation as well as internally against fears, doubts and flaws in her own mind. While conflict feels miserable resolving the conflict often dictates how the character grows when she figures a way out of the hole she's in.   Once, when I was feeling hopeless and couldn't see a way out my neighbor Fred showed me an illustration, a sketch of a man dressed in a business suit carrying a briefcase and trapped in a swirling blizzard of sheets of paper. You're here, he said, pointing to the man, feeling caught in a tempest, seeing no way out. Think of each sheet of paper as an option. Choose one. It doesn't matter which you choose. What matters is that you choose. Choosing will calm the chaos you feel and begin to reveal choices. And then what? I asked. Focus on that one choice. Make a decision. Feel the shift in your situation. You've done something. Gained a bit of control. Now, choose another. Focus. Gain control. Do it again and again until you see your way clear. It works. I promise.   I'm here to say that all these years later Fred is still right. Give it a go! Then you'll know. You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us!

These episodes of #thePOZcast, live from Transform 2026 in Las Vegas, are proudly brought to you by our friends at PIN. AI recruiting tools that automate candidate sourcing, screening, and scheduling across 850M+ profiles. Built for recruiters, agencies, and hiring teams. Learn more and check out a demo:  https://www.pin.com/book-a-demo?via=adam-posner Thanks for listening, and please follow us on Insta @NHPTalent and www.youtube.com/thePOZcast For all episodes, please check out www.thePOZcast.com TAKEAWAYS:  1. Same Tools, Same Results — You Have to Rebuild the Engine The insight at the heart of Pin: giving AI the same Boolean search infrastructure that human recruiters use produces the same mediocre results, just faster. The only way to get genuinely better outcomes is to rebuild the search engine itself so that AI can operate on a fundamentally different foundation. That's what Pin did — and why the results look different. 2. The Best Candidate Should Be First, Not on Page Seven The clearest signal that a recruiting search tool is working: the most qualified candidate for a role appears at the top of results, not buried deep in a list that requires manual excavation. For recruiters who've spent years digging through pages of search results, seeing the right person in slot one is a genuinely disorienting experience — in the best way. 3. Natural Language Filtering Closes the Gap Between Search and Judgment Standard filtering tools handle objective criteria — location, tenure, title. Pin's natural language feature handles the subjective judgment calls that used to require hours of resume scanning: the specific details that determine whether a candidate is actually worth a call. Resolving those questions in two questions or fewer is a meaningful time return for high-volume recruiters. 4. Pattern Recognition Learns Even Without Feedback — But Feedback Makes It Faster Pin's algorithm doesn't require explicit feedback to improve — it reads behavioral patterns in what recruiters accept and reject and adjusts accordingly. But providing reasons for rejections accelerates the learning dramatically. The system is watching, learning, and tuning, whether or not you tell it why. 5. The Curveball Candidate Is a Feature, Not a Bug Periodically surfacing a candidate who sits just outside the current search parameters isn't an error — it's deliberate calibration. When a recruiter declines that candidate, Pin learns where the line actually lies, resulting in increasingly precise results over time. The tool is always running a low-stakes experiment to get better. 6. A Visual Pipeline Changes How You Manage a Search Pin's upcoming Kanban board — drag-and-drop stages from interested through offer made — addresses one of the most persistent frustrations in recruiting: knowing at a glance where every candidate stands without digging through notes or spreadsheets. Pipeline visibility is a workflow problem as much as a sourcing one. 7. MCP + Claude Desktop = Autonomous Sourcing The MCP Server integration is the most forward-looking announcement in this episode: the ability for Claude Desktop to run Pin autonomously, without manual recruiter input, using Claude's broad knowledge base to execute searches and surface candidates. For business development and high-volume sourcing, this is autopilot for the top of the funnel. 8. The Second Company Is Easier Because the Team Already Knows How to Build Together Steven's team story is a blueprint for founder-led companies: seven people from his first venture joined him at Pin, bringing a shared language, shared trust, and a shared understanding of what works and what doesn't. The result is what Steven calls "life on easy mode" — not because the work is easier, but because the team already knows how to do it together. 9. Always Give Feedback to Your AI Tools Every rejection is a data point. Every accept is a signal. The recruiters getting the best results from AI-powered search tools are the ones who treat the interface as a two-way conversation — providing context, reasons, and reactions that train the system toward increasingly precise output. Passive use gets passive results.   CHAPTERS: 00:00 – Day 9: The Return of Steven Lu Adam, on day 9 of 10 at Transform, welcomes back Steven Lu — a returning guest and the founder of Pin, the recruiting AI tool Adam uses every day. 02:00 – Why Giving AI Boolean Tools Gets You Boolean Results The core problem Pin was built to solve: if you give AI the same search tools as a human recruiter, you get the same results. Pin rebuilt the search engine itself so AI could actually deliver better outcomes. 04:30 – The Aha Moment: Best Candidate, Slot Number One What clients experience when they switch to Pin: the best candidate for the role appears first — not buried on page seven. 06:30 – Natural Language Questions That Answer the Hard Stuff How Pin's natural language feature goes beyond standard filters — answering the nuanced, make-or-break questions about a candidate in two questions or less. 09:00 – Pattern Recognition: Learning From Every Rejection Pin's behind-the-scenes intelligence: even without explicit feedback, the platform picks up on recruiter behavior patterns and adjusts results automatically. 12:00 – The Curveball Candidates Why Pin intentionally surfaces occasional outlier candidates — to test parameters, refine the algorithm, and deliver increasingly precise results over time. 14:30 – Alpha Drop: The Kanban Pipeline Board Feature 1 in development: a visual Kanban board for tracking candidates through the hiring pipeline with full drag-and-drop functionality. 17:00 – Alpha Drop: MCP Server + Claude Desktop Integration The bigger announcement: Pin is building an MCP Server integration that allows Claude Desktop to run Pin autonomously — putting AI-powered sourcing on autopilot. 20:00 – The Team Behind Pin: Seven People Who Followed Him Seven employees from Steven's first company joined him for Pin — and that shared experience is what makes the second company feel like "life on easy mode." 22:30 – Real Results: Fees Collected, Offers Made The feedback that hits hardest: fee emails arriving up to 20 a day, and Adam's live proof point — three Pin-sourced candidates getting offers by end of the week. 24:30 – Where to Find Pin A direct listener recommendation: try pin.com, mention Adam and Steven, and see what a rebuilt search engine actually delivers.  

Here is one of my own stories about resolving a cavity in my toddlers front tooth! This is a super common symptom in children when mothers are wanting to stop breastfeeding, or in my case wanting to start night weaning. After working with so many women through this symptom in their children, I knew right away what was causing the conflict and we were able to resolve the symptom within a week or two.

Conflict is inevitable, but when handled correctly, it can lead to growth and positive change. Unfortunately, many people handle conflict destructively. This show discusses the four typical approaches to resolving conflict and explores what God's answer is to these issues. Resolving conflict is an important topic if you've ever struggled with strife in a relationship with those you care about.  Eph 4:26 BE ANGRY, AND yet DO NOT SIN; do not let the sun go down on your anger,   Help Dr. Self continue this show - partner at www.icmcollege.org/donate  Answer your call by enrolling with the International College of Ministry at www.icmcollege.org/enroll  Purchase Dr. Ray's latest book, "The Call."

First up on the podcast, a new path to calculating the Hubble constant. This value for the universe's speed of expansion is typically determined in one of two ways, one favored by cosmologists, the other by astronomers. But the resulting values from these methods are consistently different. Staff Writer Daniel Clery joins host Sarah Crespi to discuss how reappearing bursts from deep space, lensed by gravity, could resolve the dispute over the speed of the expanding universe. Next on the show, freelance producer Elah Feder talks with Mauro Costa-Mattioli, principal investigator at Altos Labs' Institutes of Science, about tuning the “integrated stress response” (ISR) in mouse brains. The ISR pathway turns off much of protein synthesis in cells as a response to stressors such as viral infections or oxygen deprivation. The ISR is overactive in some models of cognitive dysfunction—suggesting the downregulated protein synthesis may hamper brain functions such as memory formation. In his paper, Costa-Mattioli and colleagues show turning on the ISR pathway causes memory problems in mice and turning off the ISR can restore function in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome. Although this research was in mice, it suggests cognitive dysfunction associated with many different disorders may involve the ISR—making it a good therapeutic target.

Zach sits down with Ron and Catrina, a married couple behind the YouTube music show Covers on the Spot, to find out what happens when you treat a relationship like a live recording session. Ron is the creative director and host of the show, where bands are given a song they have never heard and tasked with covering it in a single day. Catrina is a graphic designer on the same media team at Musora and the quieter half of a pairing that, by their own description, sounds like "something harmonic." Together, they have three kids, a shared workplace, and a relationship built on aligned values and very different processing speeds.Using a "covers on the spot" framework for the conversation, Zach gives Ron and Catrina relationship prompts and asks them to riff. What comes out is a candid look at how they handle conflict, protect their time together, and keep choosing each other through the daily grind of parenting and working side by side. Catrina is open about her tendency toward passive aggression and the work she is doing to change it. Ron talks honestly about learning to stop "winning" arguments and start listening instead. One of the most striking moments comes when Catrina says their relationship at its best sounds like silence: quiet, smooth, still moving.Zach ties it all together with a Ben Folds story about orchestras resolving dissonance, not just difference, and drops one of his signature reframes: repair is more important than resolve. This is an episode for anyone who has ever stayed up until 2 a.m. trying to fix something with their partner and wondered if there was a better way.Key TakeawaysWinning the argument is not the same thing as being right about the relationshipGiving your partner time to process is not waiting. It is participating.A relationship is not something you find. It is something you build with someone who wants to build with you.Repair is more important than resolve. You can go to bed without solving it and still be okay.Protecting your time together matters more than filling your calendar with activityThe best relationships keep evolving their sound. What worked five years ago may not be the song you need now.Constraints (kids, time, fatigue) can actually sharpen how a couple communicates, not just limit itVulnerability is daring to be fully honest with someone, not just showing them the version of yourself you think they wantGuest InfoRon (Catrina's husband): Producer and host of Covers on the Spot, a YouTube music show where bands cover a song they have never heard in a single day.

In this episode, we sit down with Hope Pedraza to explore how tools like Human Design and nervous system regulation can help uncover and unwind unhelpful narratives that drive burnout and stress. Hope breaks down the difference between generational and transgenerational patterns, emphasizing that true healing starts with awareness and honoring moments when “mom needs a minute.” The conversation dives into identifying hidden signs of burnout, why supporting the nervous system comes first, and how tools like HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) can provide deeper insight into symptoms. She also offers a practical introduction to Human Design, including the five types, and how these frameworks can support everything from creativity to navigating ADHD and perimenopause. Ultimately, this episode highlights the importance of individualized biohacking—aligning your health strategies with your unique design, environment, and life stage to prevent burnout and optimize well-being.Hope Pedraza is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, Human Design Guide, Clinical Hypnotherapist, and host of the Hopeful and Wholesome podcast.

Episode 3955: Joshua Fields Milburn shows how removing excess, whether in coffee or consumption, reveals a richer, more intentional life, even if the transition feels uncomfortable at first. He also reframes failure as a powerful tool for personal change, demonstrating that even imperfect experiments can permanently reshape habits and priorities. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://www.theminimalists.com/coffee/  &  http://www.theminimalists.com/failure/ Quotes to ponder: "Black coffee is a synecdoche for life when you eliminate the excess when you deliberately avoid life's empty calories what remains is exponentially more delicious more enjoyable more worthwhile" "A meaningful life is an acquired taste sip slowly and enjoy" "Minimalism has never been about deprivation rather minimalism is about getting rid of life's excess in favor of the essential" Learn more about your ad choices.
