Claire breaks down the surprise call-ups, the biggest snubs, Ashley Sanchez's return to the national team, and why the USWNT worry meter is still ticking up at a few key positions. Plus, why Jaedyn Shaw and Ally Sentnor are headed to the U23s, how Mallory Swanson's versatility could change her role with the USWNT, and why these two games against Spain might be the biggest test yet for Emma Hayes and this new-look player pool.

This is a special reissue from Season 1 of Identified. Hrishikesh Hirway has spent a decade getting artists to take their songs apart. On this episode of Identified with Nabil Ayers, the Song Exploder host takes his own story apart instead. Growing up the child of Indian immigrants in a Massachusetts suburb, a food-scientist father, a mother with a master's in literature working at Sears, in a family he describes as "four fourths equals one." It's a conversation about what happens when the whole fractures. His mother, the family's anchor and storyteller, losing her voice, and the grief he only recognised he'd been accumulating for years; a run of hard autumns since; choosing not to have kids and feeling the numbers dwindle; the guilt of the prodigal son who chose music over medicine; and the first song he'd written in ten years, born from a dream of her. And through it all, the Thanksgiving his family invented, forty people in a small house, two full meals, and his mother's legendary mango pie, which went on to a New York Times tribute and a Salt & Straw ice cream flavour she never got to see. His answer to what family is might be the show's loveliest yet: a sectional couch, a Friday night movie, and everyone squished in. 00:00 "Four fourths equals one"01:04 An immigrant family in the suburbs02:39 Inventing their own Thanksgiving07:12 Exeter at 1309:15 His mother, the anchor13:49 A shrinking family16:08 Choosing not to have kids20:00 Music, guilt & the prodigal son28:12 The first song in ten years30:50 Mango pie & Salt & Straw32:57 What is family?

I know how intensely we want a checklist. Do this, this, and this, and the dysregulation will end, and your kid will be OK. This episode is the story of chasing exactly that list (Dr. Sears' Attachment Parenting checklist that I worked to check off one by one) and finding something else entirely in Dan Siegel's Parenting From the Inside Out. He didn't give a checklist at all, just a way of being. So, I can't give you a checklist, but this episode is the closest thing I can give you: a stance to hold as your foundation, and three relational moves that cycle on top of it, out of order, again and again.In this episode you will learn:Why attachment (and regulation, and connection) resist a tidy checklist, and what to reach for instead when the flowchart doesn't existThe difference between the stance underneath everything (curiosity, compassion, non-judgment, staying with uncertainty) and the three moves that sit on top of it: noticing me, noticing you, noticing weWhy losing the stance in a hard moment doesn't mean anything failed; actually, noticing you've lost it is itself the stanceResources mentioned in this podcast:Parenting from the Inside Out → drdansiegel.com/book/parentingfromtheinsideoutThe Attachment Parenting Book: A Commonsense Guide to Understanding and Nurturing Your BabyRead the full transcript at: RobynGobbel.com/beingOrder a copy of the new Guided Journal wherever you love to buy books online or head to RobynGobbel.com/GuidedJournalOnce you order, head to RobynGobbel.com/MAP and register for the FREE online workshop exclusively for everyone who orders the new Guided Journal.

On this special live edition of KeyLIME+, recorded at the Sim Tank innovation event held at Queen's University, Adam brings together a panel of simulation and education leaders to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming medical simulation training. From personalized learning and adaptive assessment to concerns about de-skilling, data ownership, and the evolving role of educators, the conversation examines both the promise and the pitfalls of tech-enhanced simulation. Together, the panel reflects on how emerging technologies may reshape not just how we teach medicine using sim, but how clinicians learn, think, and perform in an increasingly complex healthcare system.     Episode Length:  43:02     Resources to check-out     Dizon JI, Mendoza NB, Gasevic D, Ganotice Jr FA.

What if the people who change your life are the ones who put you somewhere you have not earned yet? In this episode, Ethan Giffin, founder and CEO of the B2B eCommerce Agency, shares how losing every penny on a failed nightclub in his early twenties led to a chance encounter at a bar that relocated him, employed him, and changed his career trajectory entirely. Ethan now helps mid-market manufacturers and distributors build private buyer portals and open digital revenue channels that did not exist before. This conversation covers why customers quietly quit rather than slam the door, why he reports back to everyone who gives him advice, and what happened when he realized he had let himself get stuck. [00:05:54] What He Does and Who He Serves Founder and CEO of the B2B eCommerce Agency Helps manufacturers and distributors build private buyer portals Clients arrive either not knowing where to start or frustrated their portal underperforms Moves organizations off spreadsheets, Post-it notes, phone calls, and text message orders [00:08:01] You Cannot Be Amazon, But You Must Think Like Them Amazon has more innovation in an hour than a $100 million manufacturer may have in a decade The average 23-year-old graduate was five years old when the iPhone launched Soon that person becomes the director of purchasing Roughly 80% of B2B buyers want a direct-to-consumer style buying experience [00:09:30] What Inspires Him Started as a DJ in the 80s and 90s and learned desktop publishing to make flyers That led to building websites and eventually falling in love with ecommerce Loved being able to buy a penny ad, drive the click, and watch the transaction fire The mix of technology, psychology, and direct response is what hooked him [00:10:27] The Pivot into Manufacturing Existing direct-to-consumer clients kept asking for wholesale ordering systems Those projects blend CRM, technology, psychology, and sales The agency was already well set up to deliver them Pivoted significantly into that focus over the last 18 months [00:11:29] The Backstory His father brought home an Apple computer when he was in fourth or fifth grade Fell in love with computers, graphic design, and marketing An uncle in the Sears executive training program flew around the country in suits Ran yard sales for his grandmother and learned to negotiate over 25 cent items [00:13:30] Client Impact: Opening a Revenue Channel That Did Not Exist Pushes organizations to run 10 to 15% of top line revenue through the digital channel A call center order can cost $50 to $70 once every manual touch is counted An ecommerce order might cost around five dollars Some clients hit five or six million dollars in orders very quickly [00:15:00] Why Activation Matters More Than Building Has heard horror stories of million dollar builds that sold only $150,000 to $200,000 Pilots the system with a small set of customers first Then activates the entire customer base to place first orders The target is 10% of revenue flowing through within 18 months of launch [00:15:53] Quiet Quitting by Customers Longtime clients rarely slam the door; they drift Friction builds slowly until buying elsewhere becomes easier Ethan has watched it happen inside his own business with vendors Buyers now expect transparency on stock, warehouse location, and shipping [00:17:02] The Five Cent Bag Story A Baltimore grocery store carries the specific pepperoni he wants for homemade pizza Their self-checkout cannot process the five cent bag surcharge without staff intervention An employee has to scan a card and unlock a cabinet just to hand over a bag A joyful purchase became something he now dreads [00:20:08] The Relationship That Changed Everything: Neil Grew up in a small town about 70 miles outside Baltimore Opened a nightclub in his early twenties, lost every penny when it closed Ran into an old friend at a bar the night before Thanksgiving Neil got him hired, moved him to Baltimore, and put him up in corporate apartments [00:21:17] Ron Germack and the Rooms He Should Not Have Been In Ron was Neil's boss and a VP at Aerotek, a multibillion dollar company He was the fifth employee hired there many years earlier Took Ethan on trips during the early internet heyday Brought him into conversations at 24 and 25 that he had no business being in [00:22:28] Why He Always Reports Back He is not needy when he asks for someone's time He wants a sounding board and an answer to what he might be missing He always circles back to tell them how the advice played out People appreciate knowing the impact their time actually had [00:23:00] Gary Salzman and the First $100 Steak Dinner Met Gary at a random DJ convention as a young man Gary was one of the top agents in music production and DJing at the time He invited Ethan into a cab to keep the conversation going That led to a steak dinner and a room he never expected to be in [00:25:16] Client Impact: The Hard Conversation Recently met an entrepreneur stuck for three or four years Told him directly he did not have a viable business as it stood Either move it forward or move on to something else Gave him specific gaps to fix and a book to read before coming back [00:26:23] Admitting He Got Stuck Transitioning from an in-person office to fully remote left him isolated post-COVID He stopped talking to people and meeting people Joined Entrepreneurs' Organization about 18 months ago Realized he had let himself get stuck in a room [00:27:20] Traveling for the Company Versus Traveling for Yourself Attended industry events as a thought leader or in a sales capacity Those trips were for the company, not for him COVID ended many of the events he used to recharge with annually Joined EO specifically because it exists for the entrepreneur, not the business [00:28:30] Building the Room He Wanted Runs a flagship event each spring called the B2B eCommerce Summit Invite only, 30 people, for heads of marketing and IT at manufacturers and distributors Built it because trust is eroding in an all online, all AI world You have to create spaces for learning and for trust [00:30:08] Where AI Helps and Where It Does Not As an entrepreneur with ADHD, AI helps him organize thoughts and communicate clearly It acted as a sounding board for the themes in his book The agency uses it to analyze data and enrich online catalogs But you should not be writing your wedding vows with ChatGPT [00:32:04] Where to Find Him His book is Closing the Digital Revenue Gap It covers 10 revenue blind spots costing companies more than they think Free copies available at b2becommerceagency.com Also active on LinkedIn under Ethan Giffin   KEY QUOTES "Quiet quitting basically is the concept. There wasn't some big slamming of the door. Over time we just slowly started buying from other people where it was easier." - Ethan Giffin "When somebody gives me time of theirs, I like to report back. Let me tell you how this advice you've given me has helped me to evolve and grow." - Ethan Giffin "People are generous with those that are generous with them." - Ethan Giffin CONNECT WITH ETHAN GIFFIN Website: https://www.b2becommerceagency.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ethangiffin Email: ethan@groovecommerce.com   Thanks for tuning in!

I will pursue excellence in my craft and continually grow and learn. That's the next of the Twelve I Wills, and it comes down to two words: don't settle. Excellence is not perfection. It is refusing to settle for less than the best. Christ John Otto starts with a morning of prayer in the Massachusetts State House, and the lesson he took from it: no one sets out to become a crooked politician. You start out a hobbit, pick up the ring of power, and become Gollum. It happens one small compromise at a time. The same thing happens to churches, ministries, and artists. And the road to excellence begins in the same place: the small things. What we cover Why settling for the good means missing the best, and how short-term decisions have long-term consequences "There is no authority for the sellout": lessons from the State House and the ordination process 1 John and the spirit that "dissolves Jesus" drip by drip, through strategy instead of prayer and not offending the big donors Daniel and the ham sandwich: refusing the small compromise makes the golden idol and the lion's den easier to face "Life is made of little things": Dr. Ellsworth Kalas, Father Andrew Mepham, and treating every movement as worship Why prophetic art faded, and why artists must learn to draw, write, and play before they start selling Sears, Amazon, and what happens when you stop growing Practical craft disciplines for visual artists, writers, and musicians, and why you shouldn't lean on online tools Kaizen: small daily improvements that add up, and the freedom to make little mistakes instead of big ones Why fear of failure is the fastest road to compromise, and why you can only steer a moving car Scripture and references Daniel 1, 3, and 6 · 1 John 4:3 · Kaizen · Dr. Ellsworth Kalas (Asbury Theological Seminary) · Myron Barnstone · Alex Tsavaras I will not settle for the spirit of the age. I will not bow down to the idol you have made. Listen to the Lord and do what He tells you Our message is the ministry. So don't just listen to this teaching. Do it. This week, choose one small thing to improve. Take five minutes a day to practice the basics of your craft, and five minutes of silence to listen to God. Do that for seven days. Excellence isn't perfection. It's the daily yes, one little change at a time. Listen to the Lord and do what He tells you Our message is the ministry. So don't just listen to this teaching. Do it. This week, find a quiet place and turn everything off. Take your notebook and the daily Gospel reading. Read it three times: with your head, with your heart, with your hands. Then ask Him what's on His agenda today. Do that for seven days. Most people who actually do this start hearing from God in less than a month. Seven days is enough to know something has moved. Your inner life determines your creative output, and this is where the inner life begins.

HeLIX Exploration PLC (AIM:HEX, OTCQB:HHEXF) CEO Bo Sears spoke with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion after extending its helium sales arrangement through March 2027. The deal commits 100% of available Rudyard volumes to an industrial gases group, following three initial tube-trailer sales during the project's start-up phase. Sears discussed the pricing achieved, which is significantly above the assumptions used in Helix's pre-IPO model, and the potential to agree longer-term, higher-volume arrangements. He also outlined the production expansion programme, with additional wells expected to increase volumes as Helix scales Rudyard.

JT & Tim Capel are joined by Logan Crosland to break down Beverly Hills, 90210 Season 4, Episode 16: “Crunch Time.” Final exams bring the pressure to a breaking point as David turns to stimulants to keep up with school, and his increasingly erratic behavior begins raising red flags with Donna and the rest of the gang. Meanwhile, Steve finally gets his showdown with John Sears, as the fallout from the fraternity break-in comes to a head and the future of KEG hangs in the balance. Dylan also makes a life-changing decision when he offers financial help to Suzanne, setting the stage for one of Season 4's biggest storylines. JT, Tim, and Logan break down all the major developments with awards, character rankings, best moments, and plenty of discussion about David's downward spiral, Steve's redemption arc, and the pivotal turns that push Season 4 into its next chapter. All that and more on another nostalgic installment of 9021NoSo.

HeLIX Exploration PLC (AIM:HEX, OTCQB:HHEXF) CEO Bo Sears spoke with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the spudding of the Ollie #1 well and plans to test the northern extension of the Rudyard Field in Montana. Sears said Ollie #1 is targeting the northern flank of Rudyard, where the northern dome appears larger than previously anticipated, with the location chosen to test that extension and potentially become another helium production well. On what Helix expects to learn, Sears highlighted the presence of multiple stacked pays at Rudyard, with the company examining every formation encountered, including its target intervals and the Precambrian formation. "We're looking at everything, taking a really hard look at literally every formation we drill through in this particular well," he said, describing Ollie #1 as one the company believes could ultimately prove productive for helium. Sears also explained that Ollie #1 sits less than a mile from the existing gathering system, which currently terminates at Weil #1. If it delivers the expected flow and helium results, connecting it to the pipeline could take a couple of weeks to a month once vendors and crews are available. Beyond Ollie #1, Helix has surveyed four new wells and is reviewing them before submitting to the state, with Sears saying drilling across the Rudyard anticline is expected to continue over the coming months and years. The company is also developing a new membrane to increase gross gas throughput alongside its existing pressure swing adsorption system.

In this week's episode of WSJ's Take On the Week, co-hosts Telis Demos and Miriam Gottfried break down the conversation around AI safety and development, and how markets have reacted. Plus, OpenAI is now expected to have its initial public offering next year instead of this year. Will Anthropic follow suit? They also analyze the Federal Reserve's recent unanimous decision to hike interest rates, the mechanical impact of 10-year Treasury yields crossing 5%, and how these macroeconomic shifts are reshaping the bond market. Next, Jefferies equity analyst Jon Petersen joins the show to explain how rising interest rates and limited supply are impacting real estate investment trusts (REITs). They also discuss the impact of AI on the sector. Are companies like Digital Realty and Equinix poised to fare well in the data center buildout? What about industrial REITs like Prologis and Stag Industrial? Plus, Petersen breaks down why the REIT sector could be a healthy safe haven for investors if the AI bubble bursts. News Corp, owner of The Wall Street Journal, has a content-licensing partnership with OpenAI. This is WSJ's Take On the Week where co-hosts Telis Demos, writer for WSJ's Heard on the Street, and Miriam Gottfried, WSJ's investing and wealth management reporter, cut through the noise and dive into markets, the economy and finance—the big trades, key players and business news ahead.

Storm Chasers Pitcher Ben Sears is our Pregame Interview!Ben talks about his two awards he won last night, being moved to the bullpen more full time, his favorite community appearance he went on this year and more.

With the Canada–U.S. trade war pushing brands to rethink where their product goes, Mexico has quietly become one of the biggest openings in Canadian CPG. Former Bed Bath & Beyond Mexico CEO Steve Sotto joins Phil and Kenny to break down how Canadian brands actually get in — and where most of them get stuck.Fresh off touring Mexico City retail together in June, the crew digs into the channel Canadians keep overlooking: thriving department stores like Liverpool and El Palacio de Hierro, in a market where Canada's own department stores (The Bay, Sears, Eatons) have all but vanished. If you've got a premium product and you're only thinking Walmart and Chedraui, you're missing a huge slice of Mexican consumerism.Then it gets practical. Steve walks through the two halves of exporting — the commercial side (getting on shelf) and the logistics side (getting into the country legally) — and why the second one is where brands blow it. Cofepris registration, NOM numbers, product classification, custom brokers, bonded warehouses: miss a step and your shipment sits at port racking up penalties, no matter how perfect your labels are.The throughline: Mexico is a sign-off market, not a complaints-based one like Canada.

What do you do when the job market keeps saying no - and what do you build when an entire industry is serving the wrong customer? In this episode of The CJ Moneyway Show(TM), CJ sits down with Anya Cheng, founder and CEO of Taelor. Anya shares how she entered the U.S. job market during the 2008 financial crisis with limited English and no easy path into marketing. She printed an alumni directory, made cold calls, traveled between major cities, found creative ways into conferences, and eventually turned competitive research into a proposal for a new digital service - with herself as the contractor ready to build it. That beginning led to a career across personalization, commerce, delivery, international expansion, and product leadership at organizations associated with Sears, Target, McDonald's, eBay, and Meta. Anya explains that smart teams are not persuaded by confidence alone. Leaders must make the logic visible: What is the goal? What is the hypothesis? What trade-off does the strategy make? What evidence would change the decision? Taelor applies that discipline to men's fashion. Its customer may want to look prepared for a job interview, date, presentation, or executive meeting without browsing thousands of products or managing laundry. AI and human stylists use fit, preference, occasion, behavior, quality, and feedback data to assemble coordinated outfits through a rental model. PAGE 5CJ MONEYWAY MEDIA(TM) | PODCAST EDITORIAL INTELLIGENCE The most important insight goes beyond clothes. AI generally learns from the past. A company's advantage comes from creating data competitors do not have and cannot easily buy. Taelor says it can observe preference without the same price distortion as e-commerce, learn garment durability through repeated cleaning, and connect customer feedback to brand partners designing future collections. Human stylists remain close to customers, train the system, and protect the trust AI alone may not yet earn. The supplied transcript ends at 30:00 during Anya's answer about building trust. Final release copy must be expanded or corrected only after the remaining source is reviewed. Episode Key Takeaways Rejection can become research when you study what the organization actually needs. A founder can create a role or product by proposing a solution before asking for permission. Customers may value time, confidence, and peace of mind more than the physical product itself. The strongest AI moat is often unique, continuously refreshed data rather than access to a general model. Observed behavior can be more reliable than what people claim about size, taste, or preference. Human experts build trust, interpret nuance, and surface needs that structured inputs miss. Circular systems can turn returns, cleaning, and reuse into quality intelligence. A clear hypothesis allows teams and investors to evaluate strategy without sharing the founder's intuition.

What if the most powerful response to terrorism is not fear—but dignity, love and human connection?On the 25th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks, Ed Hart welcomes Terry Grace Sears and Monica Meehan McNamara of Dignity Beyond Borders for a deeply moving conversation about grief, trauma, resilience and the lifelong journey of healing.For more than two decades, Terry and Monica have worked alongside children, spouses and families affected by 9/11—as well as young people around the world impacted by terrorism, war and mass violence.This conversation explores why healing does not mean forgetting, why closure may not exist after traumatic loss and how being surrounded by people who truly understand can help someone begin to move forward.Terry and Monica share:• Why 9/11 remains both a public tragedy and a deeply personal loss• How the children and spouses of those killed have carried their grief for 25 years• Why people need to be seen as more than what happened to them• How telling our stories can become part of the healing process• The extraordinary impact of Project COMMON BOND• How young people from opposing sides of conflict discover their shared humanity• Why “the ministry of presence” can be more powerful than finding the perfect words• How trauma can be transformed into purpose and service• Why love, dignity and an open heart still offer hope to our worldOne of the most powerful truths in this episode is that healing is not a destination. It is a lifelong process of putting one foot in front of the other, rediscovering joy and allowing pain to become a source of compassion and purpose.As Terry explains, sometimes healing begins with a simple promise:“I will be there for you until you don't need me to be there for you.”And as Monica reminds us:“Love goes a long way—and it is transformative.”Today, we remember those whose lives were taken on September 11, 2001. We honor their families, the survivors and the first responders—and we recognize those who have spent the past 25 years ensuring that no one faces trauma and grief alone.Learn more about Dignity Beyond Borders:https://www.dignitybeyondborders.org/Contact the organization:info@dignitybeyondborders.orgSubscribe to From the Hart with Ed Hart and share this episode with someone who needs to be reminded that even when we are bearing the unbearable, hope and joy are still possible.Available on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeartRadio and all major podcast platforms.#NeverForget #September11 #Healing #HumanConnection #DignityBeyondBorders #FromTheHartPodcast

Earlier this season, we tackled a book found in the trunk of a friend's car and things have only deteriorated from there. Friend-of-the-show Laura found The Beautiful Poetry of Donald Trump lying in a gutter; once again, you really can find terrible books anywhere! Given that this book was literal garbage and had a seemingly feeble premise, our interest was piqued. Thanks, Laura!

"When you try to wait for the perfect opportunity, you end up missing the opportunity."   Most investors try to find the next Amazon, and most lose money doing it. ETFs solve this by bundling hundreds of companies together, removing the need to pick winners. Three specific ETFs (VOO, SCHD, and QQQ) have created more millionaire investors than virtually any individual stock, and this episode explains exactly why.   Jaspreet Singh walks through each ETF, what it invests in, and the logic behind it, then closes with a decade of real market examples showing why the ABB strategy (Always Be Buying) is what separates investors who build wealth from those who watch from the sidelines.   In this episode, you'll learn: Warren Buffett's $1 million bet: the S&P 500 returned approximately 7.1% annually over 10 years after fees versus 2.2% for an expensive hedge fund, proving most people can beat professional money managers by simply owning an index Why the S&P 500 is self-cleaning: when a company like Sears fell out of the 500 largest companies, it was automatically replaced, only about 50 of the original companies from the mid-1950s remain in the index today How VOO gives broad exposure to the 500 largest U.S. companies, no stock picking, no active management, and automatic replacement when companies stop qualifying How SCHD invests in approximately 100 strong dividend-paying companies including Chevron, Coca-Cola, Verizon, and Procter & Gamble with a minimum requirement of 10 consecutive years of dividend payments to qualify Why chasing the highest dividend yield is a mistake: a high dividend from a weak company can be cut, taking both the income and the stock price down with it, the goal is finding companies growing both profits and dividends over time How QQQ gives exposure to the NASDAQ 100 (the 100 largest non-financial companies, primarily tech) averaging approximately 20% annual returns over the last decade, but falling more than 75% during the dot-com bust between 2000 and 2002 How the 2020 crash, the 2022 correction, and the 2025 tariff-driven selloffs all followed the same pattern: markets dropped, panic set in, and then broke new record highs shortly after making each downturn a buying opportunity in hindsight How to implement ABB automatically: set up weekly or biweekly transfers from a checking account into a portfolio of ETFs so investing happens regardless of market conditions, news cycle, or who is in the White House   Keywords: ETF investing, S&P 500, SCHD, QQQ, dividend investing, NASDAQ, wealth building, always be buying, index funds, long-term investing   Want more financial news?

“... reading it made me so hopeful and excited that I've been telling everyone I know about it. This is not just a book for MBAs or people who work in business. It's for anyone who has wondered, 'Is capitalism fixable?'"—Ari Shapiro What if the most radical idea in business is that purpose is the best tool for unlocking long-term growth? And what if the secret to sustaining your organization's integrity is readily available if you look in the right places? In his new book Incorruptible, a New York Times and USA Today best seller, Eric Ries reveals the hidden forces that he says cause even great organizations to drift from their original reason for being. Then he shows how to design businesses that can withstand that pressure. Drawing on two decades of work with founders, CEOs and investors, he exposes the flaws that make companies vulnerable to short-term thinking. He offers a blueprint for “mission-controlled” organizations that can grow, prosper, and endure without losing their soul. Incorruptible has received advance praise from Dan Heath, Mark Cuban, Frances Frei, Kim Scott, Bob Sutton, and many others, including LinkedIn Co-founder Reid Hoffman, who says "Incorruptible is a must-read for any founder, board member, investor, or consumer who cares about protecting entrepreneurship, innovation, and the productive power of capitalism from the dangers of short-term thinking—and for anyone who recognizes the importance of trustworthy and enduring institutions for a thriving democracy." Using lessons gleaned from generations-old retailers and manufacturers to recently founded tech sector stars, Ries reframes the ethical longevity of business as a practical design problem. He provides every builder—founder, executive, investor or citizen—“a playbook to help avoid the inevitable pitfalls” (according to Mark Cuban) and the tools to create enterprises that uplift rather than exploit. He explores positive case studies such as Cost Plus Drugs, Costco, Hershey's, Khan Academy, REI and others; he also delves into cautionary tales from Cadbury, J. Crew, Gateway, The Limited, Polaroid, Sears and Whole Foods. Scott Cook, who will be in conversation with Ries, has been a prominent supporter of Incorruptibleand has publicly praised it as required reading for founders, CEOs and investors, noting “If you're a founder, a CEO planning an IPO, an investor seeking epic outcomes—stop now and read Eric's book. It will change your life. Eric unveils the unspoken truths on how to build a legendary success … and keep it successful. When will it be seen as founder malpractice to not have read this book?"  Success alone will not protect what matters most; Ries says only incorruptible design can.  Learn more about your ad choices.

How do you lead when trust in business, government, and media is at a generational low? On this episode of The Voice of Retail, host Michael LeBlanc welcomes Keith Wyche, Fortune 500 board director, keynote speaker, and author of the new book Uncommon Leadership: A Blueprint for Restoring Integrity, Trust, and People-Centred Leadership.Keith's retail story begins in the back room of one of Ohio's largest Sears stores, working the paint department as a college intern. From there, he built a career inside organizations in the middle of massive change: AT&T as the Bell monopoly broke apart, IBM as it shifted from hardware to solutions, then grocery at Cub Foods, where he spent his first months cutting meat, icing cakes, running a register, and stocking freight to understand the work before changing it.He shares the hard feedback that explained why he kept hitting quota at IBM but never got promoted: without followership, there is no leadership. That lesson underpins his trust formula, character times competency times consistency, where a zero in any one factor cancels the other two. Keith and Michael dig into why leadership drifted from service to self-interest, pointing to quarterly earnings pressure, a celebrity culture that rewards charisma over character, and CEO pay that has climbed from roughly 25 times the average employee to 200.The conversation turns to Walmart, which Keith joined in 2015, a year after Doug McMillon began pushing the company out of its brick-and-mortar comfort zone. He describes the unvarnished truth session, the burning platform, the jet.com talent infusion, and the storytelling that made the stakes real, including his reminder that Sears once had both the stores and the catalogue and is gone today.For executives who want somewhere to start Monday morning, Keith offers a practical framework. Listen to associates, using the two questions he asks on every store walk. Listen to customers and vendors. Then clarify and simplify the mission the way Walmart turned everyday low cost into everyday low price. A Chicago self-checkout rollout that consulted neither associates nor shoppers serves as a cautionary tale.They close on board composition in the AI era, the CEO, CFO, and operations seats plus the cybersecurity and AI expertise that may sit with a director in their thirties, and why customer-facing automation like shelf-scanning robots and AI greeters got piloted and pulled. As Keith says, AI can tell you a tomato is a fruit; wisdom tells you not to put it in the fruit salad.His parting advice for the next generation of retail leaders is simple: human capital is the most important asset on the balance sheet. "I'm in the people business," he says. "I just happen to sell groceries." Presented by Kokek, Canada's Way to Pay. Visit Konek.ca to learn more. Michael LeBlanc is the president and founder of M.E.

John Hope Bryant unpacks what entrepreneurship is and isn’t, stressing it differs from small business ownership and social-media “lifestyle” images. Using a viral “Go-Kart God” example and his own experience running payroll for hundreds, he describes entrepreneurs as high-risk builders who work relentlessly under uncertainty to create scalable enterprise value and equity, not just income. He outlines capitalism’s ecosystem roles (employees, self-employed, business owners, entrepreneurs), discusses taxes and capital gains, and traces “entrepreneur” from French origins through Cantillon, Say, and Schumpeter’s “creative destruction” with examples like Sears, Blockbuster, and Netflix. John also shares his personal origin story: from Compton and a banker’s classroom visit to launching the Neighborhood Candy House. He emphasizes the importance of observation, demand, pricing, cash flow, reinvestment, and personal agency.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After years of waiting for plans -- and after Salt Lake City denied original plans -- Intermountain Health is announcing new plans for a massive hospital in downtown Salt Lake City. This major complex will take the site of the former Sears store, which has become home to a lake and lots of birds since the building was demolished. In this segment, we hear from leaders with Intermountain Health, officials at LDS Hospital, and SLC Mayor Erin Mendenhall.

Miami Hurricanes fans have a new reason to believe: A'mir Sears flashes true two-way star potential, drawing comparisons to Travis Hunter. After a dominant display against Bishop Gorman, can Sears redefine what it means to be a game-changer on both sides of the ball? His elite athleticism, hand-eye coordination, and explosive lateral movement suggest he's a year-one starter and possibly the most dynamic skill recruit Miami has landed since Jeremiah Smith. Brian Smith breaks down Sears' positional versatility, from shutdown corner to dangerous playmaker on special teams, and considers whether top programs like LSU or Texas could pry him away before National Signing Day. The conversation explores how Sears stacks up against high school legends like Allen Iverson and Travis Hunter, discusses Miami's recruiting strategy, and raises the question: Will Sears' commitment stay rock-solid amid aggressive national interest?

What's up, dudes? Remember standing in line for hours to get that one toy? Your parents probably did, especially after you sat down and circled all the toys you wanted in the Wishbook? Vinnie Brezinsky from Huey and Bax joins me to talk holiday shopping and wishbooks! Malls and shopping and commercials! Oh my! From Toys 'R' Us to Sears, from JC Penney to Kmart, we talk all about shopping and wishbooks. The Sears Wish Book began in 1933 as a special Christmas edition of the Sears, Roebuck and Co. catalog, packed with toys, games, dolls, bicycles, clothing, and other gifts that quickly made it a beloved holiday tradition for American families. Over the decades, the catalog grew into a massive annual showcase—often hundreds of pages long—where generations of children eagerly circled, dog-eared, and dreamed about the presents they hoped Santa might bring. As department-store catalogs declined and shopping shifted online, Sears discontinued the traditional Wish Book in the 1990s, briefly revived it in print and digital forms in later years, and left behind an enduring piece of Christmas nostalgia.Toys? Check. Clothes? Yeah, they're in there too. Christmas decorations? Of course! So grab your red marker and circle all the things you want in this episode on 1980s holiday shopping and wishbooks!  Give us a buzz! Send a text, dudes!Check us out on Facebook, Twitter,  Instagram,  Totally Rad Christmas Mall & Arcade, Teepublic.com, or TotallyRadChristmas.com!  Later, dudes!

We discuss bidets, ice cream sammies, Sears erotica, The Grand Pricks race, a catfight, Harp, Ossoff, RIP Dolly, horsemeat, anyone? The POTUS waistline. AI vs AI and the arrest of a pervert. Thanks
