Podcast appearances and mentions of Richard Baker

Sokaku Kathie Fischer began practicing Zen in 1971 with Sojun Mel Weitsman at the Berkeley Zen Center. She was ordained a Zen priest at San Francisco Zen Center in 1980 by Zentatsu Richard Baker, and continued residential practice at Zen Center for 15 more years. She received Dharma transmission from Sojun Weitsman in 2011 while in the midst of her 28-year career as a school teacher in Mill Valley. Since retiring from teaching science to adolescents she has turned her attention to studying and teaching Dharma. Kathie and her husband Norman are parents of adult twin sons and grandparents of three children.. That's the SFZC bio on her.  In this podcast we hit on various topics , one of them being Richard Baker. This was recorded soon before Baker's stroke from which he's recovering  nicely.

Jiryu Mark Rutschman-Byler is the abbot of Green Gulch Farm as a co-abbot of the SF Zen Center. In the podcast he talks about Becoming Yourself, an upcoming book of Shunryu Suzuki lectures that he worked on with Mel Weitsman. First he talks briefly about Nicole Baden and Richard Baker's recent stay at the City Center and Green Gulch and Baker's stroke of a week ago. He reads selections from Becoming Yourself: Teachings on the Zen Way of Life and we talk about that and more. Most enjoyable. 

We'd love to have your feedback and ideas for future episodes of Retail Unwrapped. Just text us!Guest: Mark A. Cohen Former Director of Retail Studies at the Columbia Business School, and Former CEO Sears Canada.Hudson's Bay, once Canada's proud retail institution, has descended into Chapter 11 restructuring. And the blunt truth is it's not because of recent trade tensions as the company proclaimed, but rather from years of financial neglect, unpredictable customer experiences, and questionable strategic moves. The department store's inconsistent merchandise assortments across different locations undermined The Bay's identity, leaving customers confused about what the retailer actually stood for. Join Shelley and retail veteran Mark Cohen as they discuss how CEO Richard Baker's real estate-focused leadership and lack of retail expertise have led to catastrophic outcomes, reflecting the danger of prioritizing deal-making over operational excellence. His ineptitude doesn't stop at Hudson's Bay. Saks Global is at risk of long-term survival. It's the perfect storm for Saks: The large luxe brands are not going to be bullied by Saks 90-day payment terms and Baker's financial engineering will give market share to Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's. For more strategic insights and compelling content, visit TheRobinReport.com, where you can read, watch, and listen to content from Robin Lewis and other retail industry experts, and be sure to follow us on LinkedIn and Twitter.

Just text us!Special Guests: Mickey Alam Khan, CEO of Luxury RoundtablePam Danziger, TRR contributor and founder Unity MarketingThe shift in luxury retail's competitive landscape through the Saks-Neiman Marcus merger could have a domino effect on the operational synergies of both companies, unlocking fundamental questions about the sustainability of the luxury department store model. At stake is the state of personalized luxury retail when longstanding customer relationships and local market expertise are at odds with the impersonal efficiencies of large-scale consolidated operations. As the evolving dynamics of signature, singular brand stores and large multi-brand retailers unfold, it is evident that luxury brand houses are increasingly gaining control their own destiny through direct-to-consumer channels. Join Shelley, Mickey Alam Khan, CEO of Luxury Roundtable, and Pam Danziger, TRR contributor and founder Unity Marketing, as they dive into Richard Baker's acquisition track record and question whether Saks Global can gain strides against global luxury brands which have become its largest competitors.

Von der Basis unserer Aufmerksamkeits-Praxis aus nähern wir uns unserer eigenen Erfahrung, und erproben das Wort „Gleichmut.“ Inwiefern korrespondiert es mit unserem Erleben, mit dem bestimmten Gefühl unseres „Aufmerksamkeit-Felds?“ Als Praktizierende wird unsere Erfahrung unser Wörterbuch. Baker Roshi fand zwei Wörter, die Kriterien beschreiben, mit denen wir überprüfen können, ob sich ein bestimmtes Wort, wie etwa „Gleichmut“, zur Beschreibung unserer Erfahrung eignet: Genährt-Sein und Vollständigkeit. Er erklärt beide durch Beispiele aus seiner Praxis mit Suzuki Roshi. Anstatt das Wort „Gleichmut“ einfach für uns zu übernehmen, schlägt Baker Roshi vor, neue, andere Wörter zu erproben und zu überprüfen, ob sie unsere Erfahrung nähren und vervollständigen. Er erfand das Wort „inner stationality“, oder innere Stationalität. Dabei denkt er an eine Bahnstation, die unbekümmert ist von dem Kommen und Gehen der Züge. Ebenso geht es ihm mit dem Kommen und Gehen der Erfahrungen. So fand er nach 50 Jahren der Praxis seine Übersetzung des Wortes „equanimity“ oder Gleichmut. Im weiteren Verlauf seines Vortrags legt Baker Roshi diese innere Stationalität des Aufmerksamkeits-Felds weiter aus und macht sie konkret.

Baker Roshi betrachtet die lange Entfaltung seiner Zen-Praxis in Bezug auf ihre Grundlage, den ursprünglichen Geist („original mind“). Dabei beschreibt er einen Weg, auf dem die Fähigkeit wächst, zwischen den Inhalten des Geistes und dem Geist selbst zu unterscheiden. Dieser reine oder ursprüngliche Geist erlaubt es uns, lediglich zu bemerken, ohne gedanklich-konzeptuell zu erfassen („hishiryō“). Mit zunehmender Reife unserer Praxis können wir in der bemerkenden Aktivität des Geistes, dem Gewahrsein, verweilen, und unsere Identifikation mit den Inhalten und Affekten des Geistes ablegen. Baker Roshis Vortrag wird von Tatsudo Nicole Baden Roshi live übersetzt.

Deep Dive: Elizabeth Struhs was an eight-year-old girl, living with incurable Type 1 diabetes in regional Queensland. Instead of receiving the insulin she needed to live, her parents and other members of their fringe religious group, The Saints, withdrew her injections, believing the healing power of God would save her. She died of diabetic ketoacidosis in January 2022. On Wednesday afternoon, in a bombshell Supreme Court ruling, 14 members of the congregation, including her parents, were found guilty of manslaughter. They included Elizabeth's father and the leader of the congregation, who had originally been charged with murder. In this episode of The Briefing, Bension Siebert is joined by investigative journalist Richard Baker on the ground in Queensland to explain who The Saints are, why what happened to Elizabeth is manslaughter, and whether this case will have any impact on other fringe religious groups that reject modern medicine around the country.

The Geelong Revival Centre, one of Australia’s longest-running cults, has been hiding in plain sight for years. Led by Pastor Noel Hollins until his death in 2024, the ultra-conservative church controls every aspect of its followers' lives. For the past two years, investigative journalist Richard Baker has collected disturbing audio recordings from Hollins and testimonies from survivors. They’ve told him stories of alleged physical and sexual abuse, emotional stories of families being torn apart by strict rules and disturbing allegations of medicine being banned. Due to legal constraints, he’s been unable to share it… until now. You can listen to Richard's podcast Secrets We Keep: Pray Harder here.

SOUL SURVIVOR—Just about every magazine Richard Baker worked for has died. Even one called Life.Also dead: The Washington Post Magazine, Vibe, Premiere, and Parade. Another, Saveur, also died, but has recently been resurrected. And Us Magazine? A mere shadow of its former self.Sadly, Baker's career narrative is not that uncommon. (That's why you're listening to a podcast called Print Is Dead). But Richard Baker is a survivor. He's survived immigrating from Jamaica as a kid. He's survived the sudden and premature loss of three influential and beloved mentors. And he survived a near-fatal medical emergency in the New York subway.Yet, in the face of all that carnage, Richard Baker just keeps going. To this day, he's living the magazine dream—“classic edition”—as a designer at a sturdy newsstand publication (Inc. magazine), in a brick-and-mortar office (7 World Trade Center), working with real people, and making something beautiful with ink and paper.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Mountain Gazette, Commercial Type, and Freeport Press.

September 11, the Iraq War and John Howard's prime ministership were among the most pivotal news events of the early 2000's.  But did you know that during that same period, Australia lived through its biggest corruption scandal – where Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein was paid kickbacks for lucrative Australian wheat contracts?

Anthony Pratt, one of Australia's richest men, was once given advice by the boxing champion Muhammad Ali. If you get in a fight  - run. But now, Anthony Pratt might not have that chance. Until now, Pratt was known for heading up Australia's second biggest private company. But then came October 5, when it was revealed that former American president Donald Trump had allegedly revealed state secrets to Pratt, in a secret meeting. Secrets he had no business hearing, even if he's not accused of breaking any laws. A series of leaked secret tapes and documents have revealed not just this. They also give us a peek into the channels of power. And how billionaires can pay their way to meet the most powerful people in the world - and influence them.

And what he says in private.Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In The Time Falling Bodies Take to Light, the cultural historian William Irwin Thompson predicted the rise of a new form of knowledge building, a direly needed alternative to the Wissenshaft of standard science and scholarship. He called it Wissenskunst, "the play of knowledge in a world of serious data processors." Wissenskunst is pretty much what JF and Phil have been aspiring to do on Weird Studies since 2018, but in this episode they are joined by a master of the craft, the computational sociologist and physicist Jacob G. Foster of UCLA. Jacob is the co-founder of the Diverse Intelligence Summer Institute (DISI (https://disi.org)), a gathering of scholars, scientists, and students that takes place each year at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. It was there that this conversation was recorded. The topic was the Possible, that dream-blurred vanishing point where art, philosophy, and science converge as imaginative and creative practices.

Hi it's Tim here from Inside the Tribe with another great podcast recommendation. The Confession is an astonishing story about how Melbourne detectives broke all the rules in their quest to convict a woman called Katia Pyliotis, who'd been accused of bludgeoning a man to death.

Willy welcomes Richard Baker. Baker is currently the governor, CEO, and executive chairman of Hudson's Bay Company (HBC), and is also the owner of National Realty and Development Corp (NRDC). In 2006, he acquired Lord & Taylor for $1.2 billion and served as its Chairman. He purchased Hudson's Bay in 2006 and took the company public in 2012, getting it listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange. The show starts with Richard emphasizing that “We're all born with what we're born with,” pointing out his innate ability to see things differently from a young age and his drive to go a different route. He believes that we need to maximize our strengths to build our self-confidence. Having studied hospitality at Cornell University, he thinks hospitality applies to all fields. As a natural people-pleaser, he aimed to change how real estate developers do business by focusing on customer service. Although his plans to acquire Toys R' Us fell through, he created NRDC. Being in the game got him the Lord & Taylor acquisition. “If you're always hanging out by the hoop and playing the game, then you'll make your share of baskets,” he says. He states that “We're not investors, we're value creators,” using intellectual leverage as a tool. The financial crisis only led him to pivot and maneuver in the right direction. Richard spotted an opportunity in Canada to turn it into a credit landscape, buying Hudson's Bay despite initial detractors. His previous knowledge of running a department store made it easier for him to make a choice and operate the company.
