Joined by former Muslim, Oxford PhD recipient, and university founder, Dr. Jacob Imam, today we passionately discuss why the contempt for working with your hands is not just modern, but pagan. We explore how the current education system leaves men in a world that cannot tell them who they are or what they are for. We also get into how the idea that Catholicism has “gone soft” is a false rhetoric and how Islam offers a false sense of strength. From Andrew Tate, to converting from Islam, to what our young men need to be successful as a person in 2026, Jacob provides us with fuel and direction.

TVC 747.1: Tony, Donna, and Ed remember the life and career of Tom Dreesen, the pioneering comedian, actor, and motivational speaker who was also the opening act for Frank Sinatra for many years. Tom Dreesen passed away on June 17, 2026 at the age of eighty-six. Topics this segment include the night when Dreesen visited Story Salon in 2009 (shortly after the publication of his first book, Tim & Tom: An American Comedy in Black and White), and how he incorporated the stories of every performer who preceded him that night before taking the stage himself at the end of the show; how Dreesen's formative years in Harvey, Illinois left an imprint on him; his partnership with Tim Reid as the first interracial stand-up comedy duo; and how Frank Sinatra once affectionately referred to Dreesen as "a saloon comic."

"Welcome Back Love" The San Francisco-born Martin Luther McCoy is a straight up quadruple threat. An actor, guitarist, singer/songwriter, and producer, McCoy is one of those guys who does a lot of things really well. He's released a handful of brilliant solo albums like The Calling, Rebel Soul Music and his brand new one, Welcome Back Love, which we'll get to in a minute, he's collaborated with the Roots, the SF Jazz Collective and Lady Bug Mecca from Diggable Planets, appeared in films like Julie Taymor's Across The Universe, appeared in Yale Repertory Theater's Father Comes Home From The Wars (Parts, 1, 2 & 3) and played live with everyone from Jill Scott to the Red Hot Chili Peppers. A smoldering platter of Neo soul, funk, pop, Afrobeat, gospel, hip-hop and R&B, Welcome Back Love is one of the most transformative musical experiences of the year. From "Reimagine The World" to "Warmth Of Other Suns," Welcome Back Love is deeply satisfying and soulfully precise. And Martin is not only a gifted artist, he's a really cool guy. www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) G + BLUESKY + THREADS: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

Elvis Costello sits down with Gear Club for a career-spanning conversation, from the tiny London room where My Aim Is True was recorded to the unpublished Bob Dylan lyrics he helped finish decades later. John Agnello and special guest host Tony Agnello of Eventide join for a conversation that gets surprisingly candid about the studios, the producers, and the gear behind four decades of records, including the Eventide H910 Harmonizer that helped define the guitar sound on This Year's Model. Topics include the 49th anniversary box set of My Aim Is True, the making of Imperial Bedroom, working with Jeff Emerick, King of America with T-Bone Burnett, Wise Up Ghost with Questlove and The Roots, and the New Basement Tapes sessions built from Bob Dylan's unfinished lyrics.
Bernardo Kastrup, PhD, is a computer scientist, who has recently completed a second doctoral degree in philosophy. He is author of Rationalist Spirituality, Why Materialism is Baloney, Dreamed Up Reality, Meaning in Absurdity, Brief Peeks Beyond, More Than Allegory, The Idea of the World, and Decoding Schopenhauer's Metaphysics. His latest book is Decoding Jung's Metaphysics: The Archetypal Semantics of an Experiential Universe. He has published several papers on Scientific American's website arguing for metaphysical idealism. His website is https://www.bernardokastrup.com/. In this interview, rebooted from 2021, he addresses a series of questions related to the possibilities for different versions of postmortem survival (i.e., reincarnation, possession, mediumistic communication, etc.) in the light of metaphysical idealism. He notes that, in all cases, he expects that the mental contents of personal consciousness will remain as part of an impersonal universal mind – i.e., the one mind that sees through the eyes of all creatures. With regard to the findings of psychical research and spiritualism, his attitude – while open-minded – was one of uncertainty and doubt concerning the quality of the purported evidence.

It's a natural companion to Vanessa's discussion of medicinal herbs and the garden as a source of plant medicine. Episode 96: Sensory Herbalism with Karen Lawton Karen Lawton talks about developing a deeper connection with medicinal plants through observation, sensory awareness and herbal practice. It's a lovely companion to Vanessa's discussion of bringing herbs into everyday life and getting to know the plants we grow.
It’s Only Natural Strong roots find ways to grow. “Alfredo,” I call over the new gardener, “this here. Is it a weed?” Alfredo pokes at the thin, lush branch sprouting up from the dirt. “No.” He shakes his head and smiles. “It's a tree.” “A tree? But we never had a tree here. It's too close to the fence.” “Maybe your neighbor had a tree.” A memory-wracking pause. “Oh right, he did. But he took it out a while ago.” “Well, this is a root, and it's growing again.” “The root is growing a tree? In the middle of the root?” “Yup.” “Even though the tree was taken out?” “Yup.” “What happens if we leave it? “It'll grow a new tree.” Huh. The backyard exchange with Alfredo wasn't just a lesson in gardening, but an unearthing of a truth about the fundamental makeup of Creation, colloquially referred to as “nature”. Nature is the system we credit for the day-to-day running of the world, including the celestial bodies of space. To say, nature is an all-encompassing term for the factory setting of the universe, the innate coding entwined throughout, the very essence that makes each entity what it is. Although nature can be tamed or trained, trammeled or trampled to behave in ways incongruous to its default state, a lack of constant force or compulsory system override results in reverting back to factory settings. “Nature” or “natural” are the ultimate descriptors, the words used when logic runs out of explanations, when discovery reaches the end. The nature of a root compels it to burrow deep and intermingle with the soil to anchor that which grows upward. Knobby or gnarled, thick or thin, a root left to its own devices will continually reach outward. Roots shore up the base of a plant, though their oft seen, their efforts only evident in what grows above. Though roots are generally regarded in their role of literally grounding a plant, roots are just as much a part of the plant as the side that grows in shapes and colors very different from its base. The growing tip of the plant is just the other side of the root, unsurprising as it mirrors its nature to always reach outward. Though far less pleasing to the eye, and certainly never glorified in tabletop vases, without roots, stems and leaves and fruits and buds are just a wither away from mulch. However, without the stem and leaves and fruits and buds, the root is just an anchor without purpose. Roots are first to form and last to leave, a clue of nature as to why they're even there. As if something essential to growth is connected to the health and strength of the roots. As if the very nature of roots is to ensure the plant grows. Roots are more than just a base, as they're map of the plant as well. Where did this flower come from? Trace its roots. Why isn't this plant budding? Check its roots. Will the leaves grow back? Depends on its roots. This truth is most evident when it comes to weeds, which contain roots too quick and eager to promulgate to know they shouldn't anymore. And really, what's a weed, but a fast-growing, dominating plant we've decided not to keep? Characteristic to a weed is its resiliency in the face of our attempts to uproot it. Weeds return again and again, unless wholly ripped out with their roots. Even then, the soil must be partially overturned to ensure the job's thoroughly done, or they'll be back and expanding just as quickly as before. Weeds can do little else, as such behavior was written into their very coding from the start of Creation. Why so much emphasis on growth? Growth is the greatest indicator of life, the defining line between existing and being alive. Unhealthy growth is fragile, twisted, wilted, and will not endure. Healthy growth is vivid, bold, and vivacious, a constant expansion and reaching to be more. What sprouts above soil is more fragrant, flavorful, colorful than the roots it stems from. Yet, not a single leaf, stem, branch, blossom can survive without the plain roots that start it all and support the plant beneath. Cut a branch, leaf, or flower and see how long it lasts away from its roots. Cut away a branch, leaf, flower and see how long before another grows in its place. “Alfredo, why aren't these trees bearing more fruit this year?” The gardener looks from the leafy lemon tree to the overgrown peach tree, both vibrant and healthy, but scant on offerings. “They need to be watered better.” “They are watered, see all their leaves are green.” “They need to be watered deep, a few times a week.” It's not enough for roots to burrow, to stimulate the power of growth in the ground, to thrive where soil is rich and nourishing, but to continue to do so even after a tree is grown. It's not enough to pick and trim, to focus on what's above, to be satisfied with how things appear, for what's beneath still requires care. At their best, roots present the possibility of something sweet and beautiful for others. It's evident in the blossoms that appear before the fruit forms, a pretty signal that the best is yet to come. Because even a plant has the potential to reach the pinnacle of life through giving part of itself to others. And part of itself is given as proven by the fact that the seeds of the fruit, or even a carefully cut limb of a tree, can be planted in the soil to grow roots of its own with proper care. However, roots must be watered deep, so they will not only grow, not only provide shade, but also give sustenance. To say, the best comes forth when the roots are strongly anchored, nurtured, and fully immersed. When such is the case, the tree not only provides, but also endures the changes that come in the natural cycle of a year. Leaves shed and blossoms fall, trees become skeletal, yet, as long as healthy roots hunker deep, the tree will flourish again. Man is compared to a tree in a number of ways, and the parallels reach from the strength of his base to the goodness he bears. The health of a tree, the health of a man is contingent on several basic factors: (sun)light, (nutritious) ground, (plentiful) water, and strong roots. With all these in place, a man, like a tree, may flourish and grow, and, like a tree, the first three factors are null without the last. Even when the first three are sparse to lacking awhile, so long as the last manages to be resilient and strong, man, like a tree, will endure and grow again. Even if it takes awhile to become evident aboveground. As a tree, man can grow rich in color and reach, with works that spread like a canopy. Such a man may be beautiful to behold, but the man is contained to himself until blossoms appear. A man who gives generously to others is not only not detracting from himself, but representing the best of what man can be. As a tree, a man broken or torn is possibly only showing superficial damage. As long as his roots are strong and deep, as long as there is hope that the roots can be nurtured back to health, he can still regrow. The new tree that rises may not be exactly the same as before, it may not even be somewhere else along the roots, but the same roots anchor it from below. Leaves color and fall, blossoms open and fruits rot, aboveground cycles through a range of changes, but belowground is robust and resilient, for roots are man's true anchor to life and nourishment. Whatever a tree, or body, may endure, it's only a matter of time before nature compels the roots to grow upward again. When his roots are strong, man can prevail through changes wrought by the nature of living, even if it means shedding leaves for a time, or blossoms falling before fruits have a chance to form. Man can weather fierce winds and mighty storms, times of cutting back, times of appearing a skeleton of his potential, because with sturdy roots, with strong values, appreciation of the past, and a true moral foundation, man will not only endure, but flourish again. So long as the roots are not left to rot or wither, they are the foundation for man to rise again. “Alfredo, what do we do with this little tree?” “Cut it.” “Can we do anything to make the root stop growing a tree?” “Nope.” Such is the nature of healthy roots, and no outside force can change it through force or will. Only a fundamental change in the very nature of the roots can stunt their growth, and then the roots aren't really what they were meant to be, are they? The only way to prevent growth is to yank out the roots completely, to destroy them past the point of functioning. For as long as they cling to the earth, they will strive to fulfill their nature. What if I change my mind? What if I want to replant it? What if I want to transplant it? That depends on the soil. That depends on the care. Most of all, that depends on the durability of the roots. For nothing in life is infallible, but the nature of healthy roots to grow. So, even a young tree can one day grow from ancient roots burrowed deep.
As we look at the values that root us in who we are as a church, Surrendered Obedience means letting go of control and letting God take control. When life feels uncertain and the road ahead is confusing, the safest place for us to be is not in control but in a place of surrender. Real faith trusts God enough to obey Him, surrenders enough to let go, and believes God enough to expect Him to provide. In Genesis 22, God asked Abraham to do something that didn't make sense. Abraham's “yes” was already on the table. Surrendered obedience always comes before understanding. When God speaks, obey. Our part is to show up, take God at His Word, and follow Him one step at a time. Surrendered obedience isn't the absence of failures. It's choosing to trust God beyond our last mistake. What God wanted from Abraham was not his son but his surrender. What is it that God has asked you to do that you haven't done yet? Take the first step of obedience. Say, “God, here I am. Speak.” Whatever He says to you, do it.Check out our video version of this episode: https://youtu.be/awkL-0zuHg4Subscribe to our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/8wmeCwBf_zkLearn more about us at chestnutmountain.orgFollow us on Facebook & Instagram @chestnutmtn_

Roy Stemman, former editor of Psychic News, is author of Spirits and Spirit Worlds, Reincarnation: True Stories of Past Lives, Spirit Communication, One Soul Many Lives, Mysteries of the Universe, Healers and Healing, Medium Rare: The Psychic Life of Ena Twigg, and (with George Chapman) Surgeon From Another World. Here he describes the relationship between the British spiritualist movement and the Anglican Church, beginning with a report commissioned by the Church in the 1930s. In 1967, the Episcopal Bishop of California, James Pike, publicly reported on his communications with his deceased son through the mediumship of Ena Twigg in London. Pike gave up his position as Bishop to pursue other studies, including after-death communication. Later, in a dramatic event, he became lost in the desert in Israel. After his death, but before his body was discovered, he appeared in spirit to Ena Twigg. New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series.

He is also the Grand Prize winner of the 2021 Bigelow Institute essay competition regarding the best evidence for survival of human consciousness after permanent bodily death. He is Co-Director of Parapsychology Education at the California Institute for Human Science.

Roots of Change Podcast — Episode 106 — What Happens When You Do Not Listen to Your LeadersAn experienced nurse took a management position with genuine commitment, clinical expertise, and practical ideas for improving patient safety on her unit. She raised her concerns. She offered solutions. She kept trying.The response was always the same. We don't do things like that here.In this episode, Diane Gudmundson shares that story, one side of a real situation, because she believes that if the leaders above her had taken time to genuinely hear that perspective, things may have turned out very differently for everyone involved, including the patients.This episode is about what organizations lose when they stop listening to the people closest to the work. Not just good people. Their most important early warning system. And the cost that eventually reaches the patients at the end of the chain.Diane also shares what the opposite looks like from her own experience of leading from a genuinely people-centred place, and what patient-centred leadership at the senior level actually requires.If you are a senior healthcare leader and this resonates with your organization, send Diane a direct message with the word ROOTS and she will share the next step.Secure your copy of Rooted to Rise: The Rise of the Patient-Centred Leader: www.dianegudmundson.com/rtrbook
Dr. Natalie Atwell brings more than 20 years of experience in mental health, counseling, teaching, and ministry, with a deep commitment to finding biblical answers for some of life's most difficult mental and emotional struggles. She is a practice owner, clinical director, educator, and international ministry leader, who also serves on a local Human Trafficking Task Force. She's been involved with international ministry work, including suicide prevention efforts in the Philippines.One of the things that makes her particularly interesting for us here on Canary Cry Radio, is how she incorporates the late Dr. Michael Heiser's Divine Council worldview into her broader understanding of biblical counseling, spiritual realities, and mental health.There is a lot to unpack in this conversation of how Scripture speaks into psychology, theology, spiritual warfare, and healing!

Chris Carter is a physics teacher who was educated at Oxford, England. He is author of four books that make him one of the most significant authors today exploring the question of life after death. They include Science and the Near-Death Experience, Science and Psychic Phenomena, and Science and the Afterlife Experience. His most recent book is The Case for the Afterlife: Evidence of Life After Death. Chris argues that science does not speak with a single voice on the afterlife and examines why many prominent scientists have remained open to questions of consciousness beyond death. He explores five major lines of evidence including near-death experiences, deathbed visions, children's memories of previous lives, apparitions, and mediumship while discussing how standards of scientific evidence should be applied to extraordinary claims. Carter contends that a rigorous examination of the evidence invites a broader philosophical understanding of reality and survival beyond bodily death. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:03:02 Scientists and belief 00:08:03 Creator and afterlife 00:12:02 Five lines of evidence 00:17:32 Skepticism and proof 00:22:12 Quantum perspectives 00:27:06 Reincarnation research 00:32:06 Strongest mediumship cases 00:38:16 Deathbed vision evidence 00:47:18 Conclusion New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man.

More than 75 years after the Korean War, its lessons endure—and divisions over isolationism and American power continue to shape the discourse around modern global conflicts. Dane J. Cash, historian and author of The Forgotten Debate: The Korean War and the Roots of America's Ideological Divisions, joins School of War to explain how the left's hawk-dove divide during the Korean War foreshadowed the neoconservative break from the liberal consensus during the 1970s and why the political battles of the early Cold War continue to splinter America today. 2:10 America Before the Korean War 3:08 The Debate Over Containment 4:15 Multilateralism vs. Unilateralism 5:29 Did Acheson Invite the War? 8:23 Why North Korea Attacked 8:55 Conservative Criticism of Truman 11:10 Liberal Divisions Over Korea 13:30 The Roots of Neoconservatism 17:14 Truman's Lonely Middle Ground 19:51 The Right's Foreign Policy Split 22:05 Taft, Eisenhower, and the GOP 22:58 MacArthur's Moment 25:31 China Enters the War 30:37 Herbert Hoover's Foreign Policy Revolt 33:51 Stalemate, POWs, and Ukraine Parallels This episode of School of War is brought to you by Maven Smart System, the builder platform for the American warfighter, fielded across the force and live on the frontline today.

He has also written two novels, based on his studies of spiritualism, whose protagonists are deceased figures in the afterlife, The Imprisoned Splendor and The Afterlife Therapist. Here he describes various aspects of his understanding of the afterlife, as portrayed in his novel, The Afterlife Therapist. Some of the recently deceased do not realize that they have died.

Rest and recreation are essential tools for resilience and good mental health as they help support the biological rhythms your body is already running. We'll dig into these rhythms more in this episode by breaking down three layers of the body's natural cycles: Ultradian rhythms (the short cycles within each day), circadian rhythms (24 hour cycle), and infradian rhythms (longer cycles like menstruation and seasonal changes). The practical thread through all three is the same: manage energy, not time. Notice your rhythm and do your best to honor what your body is telling you. Note: This is an encore episode, originally aired during Joy Lab's Roots of Resilience Series (Element: Resilience). It's replaying here to close the month of Re-Creation because it goes straight to the biological foundation of why rest and recreation aren't optional extras — they are literally built into your body. As Aimee puts it in her intro: these rhythms are not something to fight. They're something to come home to. About: The Joy Lab Podcast is an Ambie-nominated podcast that blends science and soul to help you cope better with stress, anxiety, and depression. It's hosted by integrative psychiatrist Dr. Henry Emmons and holistic mental health researcher Dr. Aimee Prasek.

Joy Lab episodes referenced: Joy Lab Podcast #13 (The Roots of Resilience) This episode is a broad overview of what we'll be talking about over the next 9 episodes. It's a really helpful summary! Roots of Resilience Series starts with episode #53: Roots of Resilience Chemistry of Calm (Dr. Emmons' book referenced in this series) The 20 Minute Break (book) Linnaeus' Flower Clock How does the brain deal with cumulative stress? A review with focus on developmental stress, HPA axis function and hippocampal structure in humans Cumulative Stress and Health Questions this episode was made for: Q: Why do I crash mid-afternoon and feel like I can't focus no matter how hard I try? A: That's your ultradian rhythm doing exactly what it's designed to do. This episode explains the 60-to-90-minute focus window, why pushing through leads to a steeper crash, and what a 15-to-20-minute break actually does to restore your brain's capacity. Q: Could my sleep or stress problems be connected to my hormones being out of rhythm? A: It's certainly possible. This episode walks through how cortisol fluctuates naturally across 24 hours, what happens when that pattern gets disrupted by chronic stress (including the classic 3 AM wake-up), and how protecting your sleep is the single most powerful thing you can do to help let your system rebalance itself. Key moments: [00:00] Aimee's intro to the encore: this episode closes the month of Re-Creation by grounding rest in biology — rhythms aren't optional, they're built in [01:00] Welcome — the Element of Resilience, Roots of Resilience Series, third root: aligning with nature [01:30] Henry: bio-rhythms might be the most important and most easily ignored root of resilience [02:00] Natural world runs on cycles — plants and animals fall in line naturally; humans have the choice to ignore or fight them [03:00] Inside the body: hormones, energy, focus, and mood are all directly shaped by these rhythms [03:30] Depression can be a problem with internal timing — getting out of sync with bio-rhythms; Chronobiology and body-clock research: a booming field; SAD as a familiar example of seasonal rhythm [04:30] Three rhythms to cover: ultradian (under 24 hours), circadian (24 hours), infradian (more than 24 hours) [05:00] Ultradian rhythms: most overlooked, most ignored in the typical workday; What we do instead: push through, reach for sugar or caffeine, experiment with nootropics — when the body is asking for a break [07:00] Henry: managing energy rather than time — noticing when you're fading and honoring it early before the crash [08:00] Dr. Anders Ericsson's violinist study: comparing professional soloists with good-but-not-great performers [10:00] The lesson: excellence came from tending to rhythms, not from fighting through them — more practice was possible because of better recovery [10:30] Transition to circadian rhythms — sleep is the big one here [11:30] Henry: sleep might be the best mood stabilizer available — the research is unambiguous; People with depression + sleep problems who improve their sleep double their chances of recovery [12:00] People without depression who develop sleep problems double their risk of becoming depressed [12:30] Cortisol fluctuates naturally over 24 hours — lowest during deep sleep, starts rising around 3–4 AM, peaks in morning, dips post-lunch, rises again mid-afternoon, declines through evening [13:30] The post-lunch cortisol dip: a natural signal for rest, a walk, or a nap [14:00] The HPA axis (hypothalamus, pituitary, adrenal): when this gets out of sync, depression can follow [14:30] Aimee: the 3–4 AM cortisol surge — when under stress, that's exactly when people wake up and can't get back to sleep [15:30] Mood problems can arise or worsen from fighting these natural cycles — enormous friction and energy wasted [16:00] Ways to tap into circadian rhythm: notice the animals and nature around you — dogs, chickens, birds, flowers [17:30] Light exposure: get bright light in the first 1–2 hours after waking; dim lights significantly in the evening [18:00] In winter: dawn simulator or bright light device in the morning; 15-minute session around 5 PM to help set sleep timing [20:00] Adrenal fatigue: when stress goes on long enough, adrenal glands become overtaxed — a state of profound depletion, controversial but real [20:30] Possible connection to long COVID — a pattern Henry has seen clinically [21:30] Infradian rhythms: cycles longer than 24 hours — less obvious but powerful when you become aware of them [22:00] Two key infradian rhythms for mental health: menstruation and seasonal affective disorder [22:30] Menstruation: predictable changes in mood, energy, and sleep — part of a sophisticated, elegant cycle [24:30] Seasonal depression: root cause is the change in circadian rhythm — shorter days disrupt bio-rhythms [25:00] Henry's short course on SAD: convince your body it's not the middle of winter — bright light early and late, fresh light foods, keep moving [26:00] Closing wisdom from Lao-Tzu: "Nature does not hurry.

Episode 310 opens with Steve Dennis reporting back from an invitation-only Amazon analyst day in Seattle, two days focused on Prime and grocery. Steve unpacks the breadth of the Prime flywheel, Amazon's push into sub-one-day delivery, the drone facility he toured just before the company announced an expansion to roughly 500 markets, and why Amazon's rise to the number two grocer in North America should have rivals looking over their shoulders. Then, the numbers. US retail sales grew about 5% excluding fuel. Walmart delivered a lackluster 2.6% US comp, its weakest in six years, offset by a 46% jump in global advertising and nearly $3 billion in tariff refunds the company says it will reinvest in price. Target posted a nearly 4% comp with traffic up 3.6%; real progress, though Steve cautions the invitation can be better than the party. In off-price, TJX comped 4% while Ross Stores turned in a second straight double-digit quarter. And Simon Property Group made the case that great physical retail is alive and well. The interview, recorded live at the CommerceNext Growth Show in New York, features Scott Friend, Partner at Bain Capital Ventures, and Indy Guha, General Partner at VMG Partners. Scott co-founded price optimization pioneer ProfitLogic before joining BCV twenty years ago; Indy co-leads VMG's commerce infrastructure fund after scaling Signifyd. Together they tackle a hard question: when AI makes everything easier to build, how do you tell a real company from a pitch formula? Their answer centers on founder clarity and earned domain expertise, because a couple of quarters' head start has never mattered more. The conversation ranges across whether personalization and merchandising optimization are now table stakes, the surveillance pricing debate, AI-driven homogeneity versus the promise of the "N of one" customer journey, and Indy's memorable "Claude-proof" test for anyone building in commerce. Both push back on agentic commerce hype, arguing agents will own low-interest replenishment missions while people keep the treasure hunt. Scott points to the revenue ramp of AI-native companies as evidence this cycle is real, not overhyped. Both land in the same place: brand, community, and authenticity are the last durable moats, and retail teams must become architects rather than assembly-line workers. Back in studio, on the radar: Steve tracks the bond market, with 30-year Treasuries at a 19-year high and the 10-year at 4.75%, squeezing discretionary income and retailer expansion plans alike. Michael watches Canadian icon Roots, newly sold to New York's Marquee Brands with Joe Mimran advising on merchandising, and asks whether the brand can reclaim its former glory. Registration is open for a special webinar featuring Steve in conversation with Placer AI's Head of Analytical Research RJ Hottovy. From changing shopping patterns to emerging market opportunities, shifting consumer demand continues to reshape the industry. So don't miss this data-driven session unpacking the most important trends defining today's marketplace and the strategies leading brands are using to win retail's future.
