Hour 1

After the discovery of the burnt car that belonged to millionaire Houston oilman Ed Baker, speculation was abound. Though the medical examiner finally ruled that the body found inside was indeed Edward Gerald Baker's, some folks didn't buy the ruling. They insisted the oilman had faked his own death and skipped country to avoid the lawsuits against his company or worse – jail time. Harris County Sheriff's Investigators, however, didn't really buy that. Though they seemed to believe that Ed's death was the result of an elaborately planned suicide, they couldn't prove it and still had to leave their minds open to the theory that the man was killed as the result of a mob hit. To this day, exactly what happened to Ed Baker remains a mystery. Part 2 of 2. If you have any information about Edward Gerald Baker's case, please contact Crime Stoppers Houston at 713-222-8477. Inc.

With D'Anton Lynn departing Troy for his alma mater Penn State, head coach Lincoln Riley is on the prowl for a new DC. The crew talks about some of the names that have come up and when they feel this search will finally conclude.

The crew talks about which Trojan football players have decided to look elsewhere and which players are making Los Angeles their new home. There has also been some recruiting news with Trojan targets taking part in the Navy All-American Bowl in San Antonio plus the upcoming Polynesian Bowl in Honolulu. ⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE for 50% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

Dans cet épisode solo, je parle partage avec vous un moment charnière de ma vie professionnelle et personnelle et qui va modifier Vlan! pour les semaines à venir.Je vous parle de mission. Pas d'un mot creux à la mode sur LinkedIn. Pas d'un slogan de communication. D'une mission intérieure, existentielle, que j'ai mis des années à clarifier. Une mission que j'ai longtemps cherchée, parfois à tâtons, souvent en me perdant. Mais aujourd'hui, je sais. Je veux vous redonner envie du futur.J'ai questionné ces dernières années de fragmentation, d'expérimentations, de tentatives parfois contradictoires : un podcast sur le leadership, une masterclass sur l'IA, un livre sur l'écologie… Tout me ressemble, mais rien n'avait de colonne vertébrale. Je me suis perdu à essayer d'être cohérent. Jusqu'à comprendre que la cohérence pouvait être un piège.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de ces neuf polycrises qui façonnent notre époque : écologique, technologique, géopolitique, économique, sociale, politique, démographique, sanitaire… J'explore ces forces invisibles qui rendent le futur si difficile à imaginer, et encore plus à désirer.J'ai compris que le problème, ce n'est pas seulement l'ampleur des crises – c'est le brouillard. L'impossibilité de s'orienter. Le sentiment d'impuissance. L'angoisse de ne plus savoir quel rôle jouer. Et c'est là que j'ai décidé de me positionner clairement : je suis un prospectiviste. Mon rôle, c'est de décrypter, d'éclairer, d'anticiper. Pas pour faire peur. Pour réhabiliter notre pouvoir d'agir.Je vous parle aussi d'un concept essentiel : l'optimalisme. Ce n'est ni l'optimisme naïf, ni le fatalisme résigné. C'est une posture exigeante, ancrée dans le réel, qui refuse la paralysie. C'est la conviction que même au cœur du chaos, on peut encore choisir sa manière d'être au monde.Et puis, j'ai voulu partager une autre boussole : la joie rebelle. Pas la joie fake des good vibes marketées. Une joie lucide, incarnée, indisciplinée. Une joie comme acte de résistance. Une joie comme réponse politique à un système qui prospère sur nos passions tristes.Vlan! devient un média de prospective vivant. Chaque épisode explorera une force invisible qui façonne le futur. Je vais continuer à recevoir des chercheurs, des penseurs, des activistes. Mais cette fois, avec une intention claire : comprendre pour mieux agir, ensemble.Ce que je propose, ce n'est pas un nouveau format. C'est une direction. Une mission. Une manière de se tenir debout dans le monde, malgré tout. Une invitation à naviguer ensemble dans la complexité. À cultiver le sens, même sous la contradiction.Si vous êtes fatigués des illusions, si vous refusez la résignation, si vous cherchez à comprendre plutôt qu'à vous rassurer, alors bienvenue. Cet épisode est pour vous. Et cette mission, elle est aussi la vôtre.Citations marquantes« Je veux vous redonner envie du futur. Voilà. C'est dit. »« Le désespoir naît de l'incompréhension. »« Cultiver la joie dans un monde qui nous vend de la tristesse, c'est déjà un acte politique. »« Je vais cesser d'essayer d'être cohérent. Je vais maintenir du sens sous la contradiction. »« L'optimalisme, c'est refuser de chercher seul dans son coin. »Idées centrales discutéesRedonner envie du futur➤ J'identifie ma mission comme une réponse existentielle et politique à la perte de sens contemporaine.Les 9 polycrises systémiques➤ Je décris neuf crises majeures qui s'entrecroisent et façonnent notre époque.La fin de la méritocratie, l'avènement de l'héritocratie➤ Une explication limpide d'une nouvelle injustice silencieuse.L'optimalisme comme posture de vie➤ Inspiré de Tal Ben-Shahar, ce concept permet d'agir dans la lucidité sans céder au cynisme.Maintenir du sens sous la contradiction➤ Une capacité essentielle du XXIe siècle pour ne pas s'effondrer intérieurement.La joie rebelle comme discipline➤ Résister à l'impuissance et aux passions tristes par la joie consciente.Vlan! devient un média de prospective➤ Je donne une nouvelle orientation à Vlan! pour en faire un outil de compréhension et d'anticipation.Références citées dans l'épisodeLivres & auteursViktor Frankl – Man's Search for Meaning (~35 min)Tal Ben-Shahar – Concept d'optimalisme (~32 min)René Char – Allégresse consentante (~55 min)Albert Camus – Le mythe de Sisyphe (~56 min)Slavoj Žižek – Philosophie de la contradiction (~48 min)PersonnalitésDr. Eliza Filby – Concept d'héritocratie (~25 min)Timestamps clés00:00 – Pourquoi je vous parle seul aujourd'hui ?➤ Un moment de vérité : je révèle ma mission.06:00 – Avez-vous encore envie du futur ?➤ Une question simple, mais fondamentale.10:00 – Les 9 polycrises que nous traversons➤ Climat, IA, géopolitique, économie… tout est lié.25:00 – L'héritocratie : la nouvelle injustice silencieuse➤ Le rêve méritocratique s'effondre.32:00 – L'optimalisme : entre espoir et lucidité➤ Ma réponse philosophique et stratégique.45:00 – Maintenir du sens dans la contradiction➤ La compétence clé du XXIe siècle.52:00 – La joie rebelle : une discipline politique➤ Résister aux passions tristes.60:00 – Ce que ça change concrètement pour Vlan!➤ Nouvelle ligne éditoriale, formats à venir, appel aux auditeurs.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Detroit Lions Podcast: John Morton Out and the OC Search Morton Out, Campbell Hints at Calling Plays The Detroit Lions moved on from offensive coordinator John Morton on Tuesday. The decision resets the offense and spotlights the play-calling question. Dan Campbell signaled he is open to handling the call sheet. He also suggested stability if the play caller is him. The likely model is clear. Hire an offensive coordinator who keeps the current Detroit Lions structure intact while sharpening schematics, play designs, game planning, and week-to-week sequencing. The midseason shift strained the operation. Campbell did a lot of the heavy lifting, and it bled into other duties. If that setup existed from Week 1, the outcome might have looked different. Now the Detroit Lions can define roles before the next snap. The NFL calendar will not wait. David Blough Makes Immediate Sense David Blough was the first name to surface. He served as the Washington Commanders quarterbacks coach last season. He is young and considered an up-and-comer. He once backed up in Detroit and understands the Lions locker room. He also knows Jared Goff well. That matters. Blough has been around varied systems, including Washington's approach and time in Cleveland with Stefanski. Jumping to offensive coordinator after two years as a coach is a big step. It becomes more reasonable if Campbell calls the plays. In that setup, Blough could drive passing concepts, opponent-specific installs, and weekly structure while the head coach manages the call flow. Antoine Randall El Fits the Room, With a Catch Another strong candidate is Antoine Randall El. He is the Chicago Bears wide receivers coach and assistant head coach. He left Detroit after a long run coaching the Lions receivers. That was not easy for him. His fingerprints are all over the current room. He helped rein in Jamo and earn his buy-in. Jamo rewarded that trust with a fantastic season. Randall l knows the personnel, the tone, and the standards. He has worked with Mark Brunell, Hank Fraley, and Scottie Montgomery. Seth Ryan is likely to remain and is well liked. The snag is title. Moving from assistant head coach to coordinator is technically a demotion. Extracting him from Chicago could be complicated. Internal Route Unlikely, External Fit Paramount An internal promotion appears unlikely. The Detroit Lions did not pivot in-season when it was needed most. Maybe they were averse to an in-season firing. Either way, the search points outward. The next OC must align with the offense built by Campbell and Ben Johnson, then refine the details. If Campbell keeps the call sheet, the coordinator's job centers on design, sequencing, and opponent answers. The mandate is simple. Make the current Detroit Lions offense more efficient on Sundays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6dP3VIyDo8 #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #johnmorton #offensivecoordinator #dancampbell #playcaller #davidblough #jaredgoff #washingtoncommanders #stefanski #antoinerandalll #widereceiverscoach #chicagobears #passinggamecoordinator #gameplanning #schematics Learn more about your ad choices.

Hour 1 opens with Joe and Dave reacting to the Ravens firing John Harbaugh and making the case that the Dolphins should aggressively pursue him, pointing to Miami's history with the Harbaugh family. They firmly dismiss the idea that Tua Tagovailoa can return next season and succeed, arguing his benching was an organizational decision and a clear sign his time in Miami is over. The conversation also examines potential landing spots for Harbaugh and why Miami could make the most sense. The hour wraps with questions surrounding the Dolphins' GM search, including the growing list of candidates with 49ers ties and what it says about the franchise's direction.

Listen Online: About this episode: In this episode, The First Lady of Nutrition sits down with Dr. David Minkoff, author of The Search for the Perfect Protein, for a deep and eye-opening conversation about why protein may be one of the most misunderstood—and underestimated—nutrients in modern health. A former vegetarian and lifelong athlete, Dr. Minkoff shares what decades of clinical experience have taught him about amino acid deficiency, protein malnourishment, and why so many people struggle with fatigue, weight gain, weak bones, and poor recovery despite “eating enough.” Together, Ann Louise and Dr. Minkoff explore how the body actually uses protein, why absorption matters more than intake, and how gut health, stomach acid, and even acid-blocking medications can quietly interfere with rebuilding muscle, skin, bone, and nerve tissue. Dr. Minkoff explains his concept of “protein turnover”—the idea that your body is constantly rebuilding itself—and why amino acid sufficiency becomes more critical with age, especially for women concerned about bone density and balance. They also touch on the carnivore diet, leaky gut, pre-digested amino acids, and why protein isn't just for athletes—it's fundamental at every age and stage of life. It's a practical, science-based conversation that may change how you think about protein, healing, and what your body truly needs to repair and thrive.The post The Secrets of the Perfect Protein first appeared on Ann Louise Gittleman, PhD, CNS.

In this comprehensive episode, host Favour Obasi-ike, joined by guests Celese Williams, Dr. Fashion, and Ryan Dennis, cuts through the noise to deliver the five most essential SEO fixes small businesses must implement in 2026. Moving beyond abstract theory, the discussion provides a masterclass in actionable strategy, covering the non-negotiable foundations of site architecture, the currency of strategic link building, the revenue-killing impact of slow site speed, the power of dominating local search, and the technical integrations needed to get indexed and noticed by search engines.Next Steps for Booking A Discovery Call | Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

Actively manage site speed through optimized hosting, a Content Delivery Network (CDN), and compressed media files.Dominate Your Geographic Area: For businesses serving specific areas, embedding location data (maps, zip codes, city names) directly into your site is crucial for capturing "near me"searches.Integrate to Accelerate: Directly connect your website to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools and manually submit new content to get indexed significantly faster than waiting for organic crawls.Detailed Show Notes & Timestamps[00:00:00] Introduction: Setting the Stage for 2026Host Favour Obasi-ike kicks off the new year by tackling the evergreen challenge of Search Engine Optimization. He frames "fixing" SEO not as a one-time task but as a continuous process of optimization that is fundamental to brand awareness, website traffic, and revenue growth. He provides an initial call to action, directing listeners to the link in the show description to book a consultation or subscribe to his email list for ongoing insights. With the stage set, the episode transitions into the first and most foundational technical fix for any small business website.[00:04:15] SEO Fix #1: Site Architecture - The Foundation of Your Digital PresenceSite architecture is the fundamental blueprint of a website, dictating how both users and search engine algorithms navigate, understand, and value its content. A strong architecture is the bedrockof any successful digital presence, ensuring content is organized, accessible, and easily discoverable.Key components of a robust site architecture include:Canonical Tags: A canonical tag tells search engines which version of a page is the "master copy," preventing duplicate content issues. As Favour Obasi-ike explains with the "Adam Apple"analogy, just as a person has one true name, your content must have one single, consistent identity recognized by search engines to avoid confusion.Image Optimization: Large, uncompressed image files are a primary cause of slow load times. Uploading images that are several megabytes in size will significantly degrade site performance and hurt search rankings.Link Health: Regularly checking for and fixing broken or duplicate links is essential for a clean and functional site structure.Website Updates: Using the "brushing your teeth" analogy, Favour Obasi-ike explains that keeping content and copyright dates current signals relevance. Search engines prioritize fresh, well-maintained content, and an outdated copyright date is a direct signal that a site may be abandoned or irrelevant.*Heading Tags (H1-H6):* Properly structured headings organize content for human readers and provide a clear hierarchy that helps search engines understand the main topics and subtopics of a page.URLs & Schema: Keyword-rich URLs (e.g., .../cookie-recipes) and schema markup (microdata for recipes, events, etc.) give search engines explicit context about a page's purpose, improving its chances of ranking for relevant queries.[00:14:30] Guest Spotlight: Celese Williams on Design, UX, and SEOGuest speaker Celese Williams distills her formula for a successful small business website into three core principles: simple design, easy user experience (UX), and findable SEO. She powerfully underscores this advice with her own success story, revealing that her "basic" but architecturally sound website generated $247,000 in revenue last year, proving that a solid foundation is more valuable than flashy design.With a solid architectural blueprint defined, the next strategic imperative is to establish realistic implementation timelines, which vary dramatically based on a business's starting point.[00:19:45] Strategy Session: SEO Timelines for New vs. Existing BusinessesDetermining a realistic timeline for SEO results is a common strategic challenge. The approach differs significantly for a business building its digital footprint from scratch versus one that is optimizing an existing but underperforming presence.Prospect ProfileProspect A: No online presence, thriving on referrals.6-12 Months: Building a digital foundation from the ground up requires significant time to establish authority, build content, and gain visibility. Favour Obasi-ike notes this timeline can be shortened to 3 months if a podcast is part of the strategy.Prospect B: Existing local presence, but not definitive.3-6 Months: Leveraging an existing foundation allows for a faster path to scalable results. The focus shifts from creation to optimization, building upon the authority the site already has.Celese Williams adds a critical counterpoint, emphasizing that industry competition is the ultimate "X factor" that can heavily influence any projected timeline. A business in a low-competition niche may see results faster, while one in a saturated market will face a longer road. From this high-level strategy, the focus shifts to the practical tactics of audience building across different platforms.[00:26:30] Community Q&A: Building a Social Media AudienceThis Q&A session addresses a common pain point for small businesses: how to efficiently build and maintain an audience across multiple social platforms without getting overwhelmed. The speakers offer a unified message centered on smart, focused distribution.Celese Williams' "Master a Few" Strategy:Trying to be on every platform is an unsustainable and difficult strategy.Businesses should focus on mastering the top 2-3 platforms where their target audience is most active and engaged.Dr. Fashion's "Smart Distribution" Method:She advocates for the "create once, distribute smartly" approach.This involves batch recording long-form content and using tools like repurpose.io to efficiently atomize and distribute it across various platforms, tailoring the hook for each audience.Favour Obasi-ike's "Ecosystem" Approach:He analyzes the importance of building a presence within a platform ecosystem like Meta (Facebook, Instagram, Threads, WhatsApp).He highlights the power of using long-form content, such as a podcast, as a source for dozens of micro-content pieces (clips, quotes, articles), which dramatically improves searchability and reach.[00:39:00] Case Study: The Power of Organic Keyword GrowthFavour Obasi-ike presents his own podcast as a powerful case study on the long-term value of consistent, high-quality content. He illustrates its organic keyword growth over just three months:Top 3 Keywords: Grew from 85 on October 13th to 198 in January.Top 10 Keywords: Grew from 91 on October 13th to 245 in January.Top 50 Keywords: Grew from 469 on October 13th to 1,196 in January.Top 100 Keywords: Grew from 238 on October 13th to 627 in January.This tangible growth demonstrates how a steady stream of relevant content creates a compounding interest effect on search visibility. The discussion on content distribution logically pivots back to a core SEO technical fix: the links that tie all that content together.[00:41:10] SEO Fix #2: Web Links - The Pathways to ProfitabilityLinks are the nervous system of a website, creating pathways that guide both users and search engines to valuable content. They are the currency of the internet, signaling authority and relevance.Favour Obasi-ike outlines a simple yet powerful three-step strategy for link building:Identify Core Products/Services: Begin with a clear understanding of what you sell. This focus will guide your keyword and content strategy.Embed Keywords in URLs: Create descriptive, keyword-rich URLs for every page (e.g., velvet.com/red-velvet-cookies). Avoid using "stop words" (like for, the, a), as they add no contextual value for search engines and make URLs longer and less focused.Match Social Posts to Website Links: Implement a *"1-to-1 match"* strategy. For every social media post you create, ensure there is a corresponding article or landing page on your own website. This ensures you are building authority for your domain, not just for the social media platform.Celese Williams enthusiastically endorses this approach, noting that SEO agencies charge clients $1,000 on the low end, up to $20,000-$30,000 on the high end for this exact strategy. However, a perfectly linked site is useless if it's too slow to load. This brings us to the third critical fix: optimizing for pure speed, a non-negotiable factor for both user retention and rankings.[00:52:15] SEO Fix #3: Site Speed - Winning the Race for AttentionIn 2026, website speed is a make-or-break SEO factor. A slow website directly harms user experience, increases bounce rates, kills conversions, and leads to lower search rankings. Google prioritizes sites that provide a fast, seamless experience for its users.Key actions for improving site speed include:Identify Performance Bottlenecks: Use a tool like GTmetrix.com to analyze your website's performance and get a baseline score.Optimize Hosting: Invest in a high-performance hosting platform that can handle your traffic and content demands.Leverage a CDN: A Content Delivery Network (CDN) stores copies of your site in multiple geographic locations, serving content from the closest server to the user, which drastically improves loading times for a global audience.Compress Images: Use a tool like compressor.io to significantly reduce image file sizes without sacrificing visual quality. This is one of the most effective ways to boost speed.From the technical dimension of speed, the analysis moves to the equally important geographical aspect of location.[00:57:45] SEO Fix #4: Location - Dominating Your Local MarketSince the vast majority of online searches have local intent (e.g., "tacos near me"), it is strategically vital for businesses to clearly signal their service area to capture nearby customers. Location-based SEO is not just for brick-and-mortar stores; it's essential for any business serving a specific geographic region.Actionable strategies for location optimization include:Integrate Map Links: Embed Google Maps and Apple Maps links directly on your website to provide clear location signals and improve user experience.Connect to Google Business Profile: A complete, updated, and active Google Business Profile is the cornerstone of local SEO. Ensure it is linked directly to your main website.Focus on a Target Radius: Optimize your content and keywords for a specific 5-20 mile radius to serve the most relevant local audience and avoid competing on a national level unnecessarily.Celese Williams strongly reinforces this point, advising that local service-based businesses must "master their own backyard" before even considering expansion. This on-page focus on location provides a natural bridge to the final, technical step of integrating the site with search engines.[01:02:10] SEO Fix #5: Integrations & Setup - Connecting to the Digital EcosystemThe final critical fix involves technical integration. This is not just a one-time setup step but the official act of submitting your website to search engines, ensuring your content gets seen, crawled, and indexed in a timely manner.The essential integration process includes:Connect to Google Search Console: This is the primary and non-negotiable step for submitting your site to Google, monitoring performance, and identifying technical issues.Submit Your Sitemap: A sitemap (sitemap.xml) is a file that lists all the important pages on your website. Submitting it through Search Console is like handing Google a complete directory, ensuring it knows what to crawl.Integrate with Microsoft Bing: By importing your Google Search Console profile directly into Bing Webmaster Tools, you can easily gain visibility on the world's second-largest search engine.[01:06:15] The "Fast Pass" Technique: Manual IndexingRyan Dennis and Celese Williams highlight a powerful tactic for new content. By manually requesting indexing for a new page in Google Search Console, you can effectively get a "fast pass" that prompts Google to crawl it within hours or a day, rather than waiting weeks for an organic crawl. Favour Obasi-ike adds a key detail: Google allows a daily quota of 10 manual indexing requests per website. This tactical discussion sets up the final Q&A, shifting from established SEO practices to the emerging influence of AI.[01:08:30] Community Q&A: The Role of AI in Content CreationThe episode concludes with a forward-looking discussion on a pressing question for 2026: is using AI for content creation a viable SEO strategy or a potential pitfall? The consensus is that AI is a tool, not a replacement for human expertise and authenticity.The speakers offer nuanced perspectives:Favour Obasi-ike's "Personalized AI" Stance: AI-generated content is only effective when deeply infused with human elements: brand tone, personal stories, case studies, and unique media. AI should be used for leverage, but the final product must align with Google's quality principles.Celese Williams' "Cautious Tester" Approach: She advises that businesses with strong SEO have more to lose and should be wary of AI, while those starting from scratch could test it. She raises a critical question about how AI aligns with Google's ranking systems. In response, Favour Obasi-ike highlights that Google updated its E-A-T framework to E-E-A-T, adding a new "E" for Experience. This update reinforces the need for human-led content, as AI cannot generate genuine, first-hand experience—a critical ranking factor in 2026.The ultimate takeaway is that AI is a powerful assistant, but it must be used to enhance—not replace—the unique experience, expertise, and emotion that only a human can provide.[01:19:00] Final Thoughts & How to ConnectFavour Obasi-ike wraps up the episode by reiterating the five critical SEO fixes that can transform a small business's digital presence.

The Celtics beat the Bulls last night and are now in second place in the Eastern Conference, yet people still aren't believing in the team. Will Tom Brady help or hurt the Raiders by being a key advisor in their coaching search? Driving on icy roads is the absolute worst.

After a three-year tenure that ended with a 3-14 finish in 2025 and a 15-36 overall record, the Cardinals have parted ways with Jonathan Gannon and will soon usher in a different era with the hiring of a new head coach. Craig Grialou, Paul Calvisi and former NFL linebacker Lorenzo Alexander break down what went wrong in 2025, how injuries and inconsistency derailed a season that began with promise, and why ownership and GM Monti Ossenfort decided it was time to pivot. They also look ahead to the next head coach inheriting a roster with upside in 2026, including young players who gained valuable experience in 2025 and standout talents like tight end Trey McBride and wide receiver Michael Wilson, who enjoyed a breakout season.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Joe reacts to Mike McDaniel's press conference, saying he has no idea what the head coach meant when discussing the quarterback situation for next season. The conversation shifts to the Dolphins' GM candidate list, which is loaded with 49ers ties and raises questions about how much influence McDaniel's background is having on the process. Joe questions whether the next GM will truly have power or simply be brought in to work with the current structure. The segment centers on whether Miami will actually allow a new GM to put his own stamp on the organization

Joe and Hollywood dive into the latest twist in the Dolphins' offseason, with reports that Mike McDaniel will be involved in the GM search — a move that raises plenty of eyebrows. They debate whether it's a strange look for a coach on the hot seat to have a say in hiring the next general manager and question how secure McDaniel's job really is. The conversation also touches on comments suggesting the head coach may already be safe and Tua Tagovailoa's openness to a fresh start next season as uncertainty continues to surround the franchise.

In this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna sits down with psychologist and mental health leader Dr. Max Doshay to explore the identity shift that reshaped both his life and career. Max reflects on how losing a version of himself he once deeply identified with forced him to confront who he was beneath the roles, titles, and expectations he carried. What followed wasn't a straight path, but a series of pivots that led him toward leadership, purpose, and deeper self-awareness. Together, they talk about humility, ambition, and the tension between striving and staying grounded. Max shares what it's like to lead without ego, to build something meaningful without losing yourself in the process, and to remain open when life unfolds differently than planned. This conversation offers a thoughtful look at what can emerge when identity falls away — and something more honest takes its place.Dr. Max's Resources:WebsitesDrMaxDoshay.comMonima Wellness Center Element Q Healing Center Social MediaLinkedIn: Dr. Max DoshayLinkedIn: Monima Wellness CenterInstagram: @drmaxdoshayInstagram: @monimawellnessInstagram: @elementqhealingcenterFacebook: Monima Wellness CenterFacebook: Element Q Healing CenterBooksSecond Firsts by Christina RasmussenThe Road Less Traveled — M.

Thank you for an incredible 2025!

In 2016 psychologist Paul Bloom wrote a book titled Against Empathy: The Case for Rational Compassion (a naming decision he still wrestles with). In the book, as in his career and in this Social Science Bites podcast, Bloom deconstructs what is popularly meant by empathy. "Everybody seems to have their own notion," he tells interviewer David Edmonds, "and that's totally fine, but we end up talking past each other unless we're clear about it." And so he outlines several widely used definitions -- think compassion, for example -- before offering several more scholarly ways of viewing empathy, such as "cognitive empathy" and "emotional empathy." A key to understanding his work is that Bloom is not actually against empathy, at least not in general, even though he tells Edmonds, "I think empathy is -- in some way -- a great cause for our worst behavior." But the use of what he terms "emotional empathy" concerns him because, as he explains, it's not evenly distributed or applied, and thus allows harm to occur under the guise of benevolence. "Empathy is sort of vulnerable to all the biases you would think about. This includes the traditional in-group, out-group biases -- race, nationality, religion. It includes attractiveness -- it's easier to feel empathic for somebody who's cute versus someone who's ugly." Bloom and Edmonds also discuss how empathy leaches into the realm of artificial intelligence, where what might be judged empathetic responses from AIs can devolve into a humanity-extracting feedback loop. In his work as a professor of psychology at the University of Toronto, and as the Brooks and Suzanne Ragen Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Yale University, Bloom studies how children and adults make sense of the world, with, as his website notes, "special focus on pleasure, morality, religion, fiction, and art." He is editor of the journal Behavioral and Brain Sciences, and has written a number of public-facing books, including 2016's Against Empathy, Psych: The Story of the Human Mind, and The Sweet Spot: The Pleasures of Suffering and the Search for Meaning.  

Summary In this episode, Cultivating Curiosity host Jeff Ikler reflects on his love of year-end "Best Books" lists and why reading sits at the heart of his podcast and personal life. He welcomes lists from institutions like The New York Times and the New York Public Library, seeing them as both a defense against book banning and a source of discovery, connection, and generosity. For Ikler, books spark curiosity, deepen empathy, and create bonds—whether through gifting or thoughtful conversation with authors. He also underscores podcast hosts' responsibility to read their guests' work in full, arguing that preparation honors both listeners and writers. Ultimately, Ikler finds himself drawn to books that slow him down through careful observation and reflection, or expand his understanding through deeply researched history, reinforcing reading as both nourishment and refuge. Three Major Takeaways Reading lists are acts of resistance, curiosity, and connection—not just recommendations. Thoughtful reading is essential to meaningful conversation, especially in podcasting. The most rewarding books either sharpen our attention to the present or deepen our understanding of the past. Jeff's favorite books in 2025 Crossings – How Road Ecology is Shaping the Future of Our Planet by Ben Goldfarb. Quoting from the book jacket, "Creatures from antelope to salmon are losing their ability to migrate in search of food and mates; invasive plants hitch rides in tire treads, road salt contaminates lakes and rivers; and the very, very noise of traffic chases songbirds from vast swaths of habitat." In this beautifully crafted book, Goldfarb makes the case that overpasses and underpasses are essential for reducing the deaths of animals and humans who inevitably come into brutal contact with one another. One of the chief takeaways in our era of divisiveness is that road ecologists and other scientists, insurance companies, and government officials are working collaboratively to solve problems. They have different goals for doing so, but they're working effectively at the intersection. You can access my two-part podcast interview on Getting Unstuck–Cultivating Curiosity with Ben in episodes 347 and 348. The Comfort of Crows – A Backyard Year by Margaret Renkl. This title came from one of last year's best books, and it did not disappoint. Quoting from the book jacket, "Margaret Renkl presents a literary devotional: fifty-two chapters that follow the creatures and plants in her backyard over the course of a year." How often do you read a chapter or passage because the writing is so moving? If you're interested in slowing down and seeing more of your immediate world, this is a great place to start. This small volume is a course in observation and reflection. Challenger – A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space by Adam Higginbotham. Like many Americans who watched the Space Shuttle Challenger break apart just seventy-three seconds into its mission, I thought I knew the story, but I was so wrong. As the book jacket explains, "…the Challenger disaster was a defining moment in twentieth-century history–one that forever changed the way America thought of itself and its optimistic view of the future. Yet the full story of what happened, and why, has never been told." I was moved to head-shaking anger after reading how decisions were made and bungled. Higginbotham's explanation of a highly complicated topic is beautifully presented. The book is a primer on the dangers of overly complex and competing bureaucracies and ego. Remember Us – American Sacrifice, Dutch Freedom, and a Forever Promise Forged in World War II by Robert M. Edsel with Bret Witter. Remember Us documents twelve lives connected to the American Military Cemetery near the small village of Margraten, Netherlands. Approximately 8,300 Americans who helped liberate the Netherlands from the Nazis and the grip of fascism during World War II are buried there. One of these was a Black American soldier who, along with a company of other Black Americans, dug the graves under the harshest weather conditions. The cruel irony is that Black soldiers worked in segregated and mostly non-combat roles in a war fought to eliminate tyranny and oppression. The cemetery is remarkable because local Dutch citizens have taken it upon themselves to adopt each grave and visit it weekly. This practice reflects the citizens' ongoing gratitude, and their visits ensure that the soldiers are always remembered for their sacrifice. There is a waiting list of citizens who wish to adopt a grave. Raising Hare—a Memoir by Chloe Dalton. This title has made almost every list I've come across. From the jacket cover, "…Dalton stumbles upon a newborn hare—a leveret—that had been chased by a dog. Fearing for its life, she brings it home, only to discover how difficult it is to rear a wild hare." Dalton deftly and wisely navigates caring for the hare as a house guest versus a pet, a choice that lets the hare move between the wild of the nearby woods and the security of her home. Like Renkl, Dalton has a keen eye for observation, one that put me in her home and garden as a witness to their interactions. Origin — A Genetic History of the Americas by Jennifer Raff. When I was growing up, I watched or read with almost religious fervor anything National Geographic produced featuring Louis Leakey, a paleoanthropologist and archaeologist. I was in awe of how he dug through the layers of time to find bones and artifacts from our earliest ancestors. Leakey's work was critical in demonstrating our human origins in Africa. So, when my friend Annette Taylor, a researcher of evolutionary psychology and biology, shared an article featuring Professor Jennifer Raff, an anthropologist and geneticist trying to rewrite the history of human origins in the Americas, I knew I had to invite her on my podcast. As a history enthusiast, I found it especially rewarding to co-host, along with Annette, a discussion with Professor Raff on podcast episode 358 about how and why early peoples migrated to and within North America. Raff has a talent for simplifying complex topics and making listeners comfortable with uncertainty. Scientists have theories and are constantly testing and revising them. We don't yet know for sure how early peoples arrived here or why they migrated, but that's the beauty of science and history. There is always more to discover. If You Lived Here, I'd Know Your Name by Heather Lende. I read this book decades ago and was as captivated then as I was this year by Heather Lende's storytelling ability. Adapted from the back cover, "As both the obituary writer and social columnist for the local newspaper (in Haines, Alaska, population about 2,500), Heather Lende knows better than anyone the goings-on in this breathtakingly beautiful place. Her offbeat chronicle brings us inside her — and the town's — busy life." Why read about a small town in Alaska? Maybe because it helps us look critically at our own lives. Like Renkl and Dalton, Heather Lende has an eye for detail, but also the humanity beneath the detail. She has graciously agreed to be my guest in podcast episode 400 this coming February. The most interesting books read in 2025 by his friends and colleagues Steve Ehrlich – The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul by Connie Zweig.  Zweig writes from a Jungian perspective that is accessible to anyone who thinks about old and new agendas, internal and external, as we transition to later life, and reflect on what we want to hold on to, and what we're prepared to let go of to live an authentic life.   Cindy House – What Just Happened by Charles Finch. It's one person's experience of the terrible year that was the pandemic lockdown, with all the fear, uncertainty, and strangeness I had forgotten. I loved his cultural observations and witty take on one of the weirdest years of our lives. I am so glad this particular record exists.  By Edgington – The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer. I first read the book in 2013, then again in '24, and now I read and refer to it every year. Singer's book is what propelled me to join his Temple of the Universe, where Mariah and I now live on the grounds. It's filled with inspiration and simple, almost homely wisdom: "The moment in front of you is not bothering you; you're bothering yourself about the moment in front of you!" Spencer Seim – To Possess the Land by Frank Waters. It follows the life of Arthur Manby, who came to the New Mexico territory in 1885 from England. He quickly tried to cash in by calling parcels of land his own. He quickly ran into resistance, often by force, and had to learn the hard way that the land of New Mexico in those days was a bit more complicated. Charlotte Wittenkamp – Shift by Ethan Kross. Kross examines Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning and the notion that we always have the freedom to choose how we respond - even to the atrocities Frankl had to put up with in a WWII concentration camp. Kross examines and supports, with scientific findings, various ways we can shift our perspectives to gain easier access to that freedom of choice. Paul McNichols – E-Boat Alert by James F. Tent. The book offers a nearly forensic yet highly readable analysis of the threat posed by the E-Boats of the German Kriegsmarine to the Allied invasion of Europe in 1944. It covers the development, use, strengths, and limitations of these fast, maneuverable craft, as well as their impact on the Normandy landings on D-Day and the weeks thereafter. The most interesting part is the chain of events that ultimately led to their neutralization. Annette Taylor – My Name is Chellis, and I'm in Recovery from Western Civilization by Chellis Glendinning. Chellis writes affectionately and respectfully about eco-psychology and nature-based peoples from whom members of Western Civilization could learn a lot. Sue Inches – The Light Eaters – How the unseen world of plant intelligence offers a new understanding of life on earth by Zoe Schlanger. A thrilling journey that leads the reader from an old paradigm of plants as separate inanimate objects, to the true nature of plants as sensing, alive beings who communicate with the world around them. An inspiring example of how human understanding of the world around us is making progress! Rich Gassen – The Art of Gathering by Priya Parker. Priya teaches us how to have better parties, events, and relationships through her writing. I used this book's information (along with her podcasts) to plan a better 10-year anniversary party for the Campus Supervisors Network community of practice I lead at UW-Madison — making it exclusive, inviting, and tailored to those who attended. Mac Bogert – Renegades by Robert Ward. After some time as a college professor, Bob decided to try journalism. He spent twenty years interviewing folks from Waylon Jennings to Larry Flynt, and, damn, he's good at it! Hunter Seim – Catch-22 by Joseph Heller. The novel is set during World War II, from 1942 to 1944. It mainly follows the life of antihero Captain Yossarian, a U.S. Air Force B-25 bombardier. The term "Catch-22" itself refers to a paradoxical situation in which contradictory rules or circumstances trap a person. In the novel, Yossarian discovers that he can be declared insane and relieved from duty if he requests it, but by requesting it, he demonstrates his sanity. Remarkably accurate in describing organizational dysfunction and bureaucratic absurdity. It was the perfect book to read in 2025. Bill Whiteside – I Regret Almost Everything by Keith McNally. I wondered whether this memoir by a New York restaurateur (who hates the word "restaurateur" and much else), who suffered two strokes and survived a suicide attempt, would live up to its social media hype. It does.

MEETING LEE HARVEY OSWALD AND THE SEARCH FOR EMPLOYMENT Colleague Paul Gregory. This segment traces the relationship back to June 1962, when Pete Gregory first met Lee Harvey Oswald. Oswald, seeking employment that utilized his Russian language skills rather than manual labor, was referred to Pete for a language evaluation. Pete wrote a letter vouching for Oswald's fluency, though he noted Oswald was not a native speaker. Oswaldwas bitter about working as a welder for low wages and hoped to avoid the "blue-collar trap." The segment also introduces the first meeting between Paul and the Oswalds at Robert Oswald's home, where Paul observed Lee's poor grammar despite his fluency. To help the couple financially, the Gregorys arranged for Paul to take Russian conversation lessons from Marina Oswald. NUMBER 2
