“Does DNA barcoding actually work?” It's the first question Kent Rapp hears from prospective customers when he pitches Biolinco's DNA barcoding platform. By his own admission, the technology can sound too good to be true.In Part 2 of this conversation, Kent rejoins the Smart Biotech Scientist Podcast to address that skepticism head-on, unpack how subclone variability and bispecific antibody purity concerns shape customer trust, and share what it actually took to move Biolinco from a Johns Hopkins postdoc project to a company with its first paying customer.In this episode:Common pushbacks and questions from industry regarding new cell line development technologies (03:18)Practical advice for resource-constrained startups developing cell lines, emphasizing efficiency and data quality over brute force automation (08:42)The role and value of DNA barcoding in screening and developing robust cell lines for therapeutics (08:56)Lessons learned from translating scientific innovation into a commercial product, including securing early support and customer trust (10:27)Insights on adapting messaging, leveraging feedback, and understanding market needs as part of the entrepreneurial process (13:52)Key differences between academic research and industry requirements for reliable, repeatable biotech tools (15:26)Kent's most important takeaway for successful cell line development: focus on collecting the right data at the right scale for informed decisions (17:14)Smart insight: Translating innovations from academia to industry brings a new wave of challenges. Kent describes the “valley of death” separating a publishable prototype from a reliable, commercial-grade product. Academic success is often tied to novelty, publications, and grants, while industry demands repeatability, robustness, and consistent performance across labs and operators. Securing early champions and funding, iterating based on tough industry feedback, and building trust with initial partners all require resilience, and a willingness to pivot as needed. Feedback, even when harsh, becomes a “gift” that helps refine the product and business model. The secret is not a single breakthrough, but adaptability and relentless customer focus.If this got you rethinking how you screen clones, you'll want these next.

Unlike the made-for-TV special announcing the final twelve players at this year's Presidents Cup, this Wednesday episode is not a full hour long... but Andy and Brendan do spend most of it reacting to the final rosters and the programming that brought them to us. The two discuss the ridiculousness of a 60-minute show at 5 p.m. on a Tuesday to announce the teams, every player immediately being called "great for the teamroom," and U.S. captain Brandt Snedeker's whispers to Todd Lewis about his selections. Eventually they do get into the picks, most notably Snedeker's selection of Jackson Koivun as the final man on Team USA. Andy and Brendan wonder how Snedeker might've arrived at the decision to take the young star, with some conspiracies being thrown out almost immediately. They debate the merits picking of Koivun (and Jacob Bridgeman) instead of some who did not make the team, including Ryan Gerard, J.J. Spaun, and Ben Griffin. On the International side, Geoff Ogilvy's selections were fairly chalk until a surprise final selection of Christiaan Bezuidenhout, whose wifi (or lack thereof) was a lowlight of the Golf Channel show. PJ can't believe the C-Bez pick and points out that he's ranked lower than assistant captain Taylor Pendrith on basically any list you can find. Andy supposes that the selection was a last-minute rebuttal to the Bridge Man's putter landing a spot on the American side. After plenty of P-Cup talk and a plug for the upcoming SGS Live Show at SPACE, Andy and Brendan discuss a very small Schedule for the Week before getting into some recent news. Colt Knost has found his way back to the forefront of the reinstated amateur debate, but he might've been playing it up on social for those precious, precious impressions. Lastly, Brendan breaks Andy and PJ's brains with a revelation about former PGA of America President Don Rea and his latest whereabouts in a final segment you won't want to miss.

Send us Fan MailERP selection is no longer just a matter of comparing features. It is fundamentally an architectural decision that influences implementation success, reporting quality, operational scalability, and long-term business performance. While many organizations continue to prioritize functional fit and rapid go-live timelines, they often underestimate the importance of application architecture, data models, integration strategies, and governance frameworks. Overlooking these foundational elements can introduce hidden risks that only become apparent after deployment, resulting in disconnected workflows, inconsistent reporting, data integrity issues, and limited opportunities for automation and future innovation.In this episode, Sam Gupta from ElevatIQ is joined by Tim Nargassans and Brian Colville from Velosio where they discuss AI & data architecture considerations in ERP selection.Video: https://www.elevatiq.com/events-and-webinars/ai-data-architecture-considerations-in-erp-selection-reducing-implementation-risk/Questions for Panelists?

What if the bottleneck in cell line development isn't how many clones you screen, but how you track them?Cloning workflows have long relied on brute force: screen more cells, automate harder, and hope that small-scale performance predicts manufacturability. But too often, the “perfect” clone in a 96-well plate turns into a dud when it reaches the bioreactor. That disconnect costs time, money, and promising therapies.This week, host David Brühlmann welcomes Kent Rapp, Co-founder and CEO of Biolinco, an entrepreneur who's turning the classic approach to cell line development inside out. Drawing from his background in chemical engineering and his work in biomanufacturing at Johns Hopkins University, Kent teamed up with DNA barcoding experts to pioneer a new workflow: barcode every cell, pool them, and track their true performance in the environment that matters.Topics discussed:The pitfalls of brute-force screening in traditional cell line development (03:05)Kent's background and how he was drawn to combine science, startups, and biomanufacturing (04:37)Overcoming discrepancies between small-scale and large-scale screening environments (08:30)How DNA barcoding allows for high-resolution, pooled clone screening (10:34)Sensitivity advantages of sequencing over plate-based detection (14:21)Methodology for tracking and recovering individual high-performing clones from pools (15:13)Impact on speed and workflow efficiency in cell line development (17:31)Regulatory and safety considerations related to DNA barcodes in cell lines (19:04)Smart insight: According to Kent, biotech as an industry has a tendency to "automate problems instead of solve them". Rather than addressing the root causes—like lack of meaningful measurements at relevant scales—companies often throw more robots and more plates at the issue, hoping brute force will finally yield the magical clone. But real process improvement requires a rethinking of what is being measured and how those insights are generated—not just a higher throughput of the same flawed assay.If this got you rethinking how you screen clones, you'll want these next. We've tackled cell line development, high-throughput screening, and the art of spotting manufacturable candidates early from a few different directions — here are four worth queuing up.Episodes 117 - 118 : Cell Line Development Secrets: Eliminating Critical Bottlenecks for Faster Timelines with Andrea GoughEpisodes 09 - 10: Revolutionizing Cell-Line Development: Unleashing the Power of Nanopens and Microenvironments with Tanner NevillEpisodes 123 - 124: Manufacturability: Why Most Protein Candidates Fail (And How to Pick Winners Early) with Susan SharfsteinEpisodes 115 - 116: Revolutionizing Biologics Development with Hyper Throughput Screening and AI with Jeremy AgrestiConnect with Kent Rapp:LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/kent-rapp Biolinco website: www.biolinco.comFree 5-day email course, The CMC Failure Chain: the five recurring CMC mistakes that put your promising program at risk → Get it hereSupport the show

Send us Fan MailTrent and Peaches bring in Taylor Starch, the mad scientist himself, to answer the questions candidates keep asking at Operator Training Summit.This is part one of the OTS FAQ dump, and it covers a lot: whether dependents can move with you during Zulu, how personal belongings work at selection, how to prevent ear infections, whether you should swim freestyle or combat side stroke, what the pipeline looks like, and what candidates should actually be doing when they have months or years before shipping.Taylor gets into the big one: stop testing your limits every day and start expanding them. Training is not about aggressive overload. It is about progressive overload. Tiny steps, stacked over time, beat the “I destroyed myself on Tuesday and can't train until Friday” nonsense every time.The crew also talks water confidence, buddy breathing panic, mask and snorkel issues, why you have more air than your brain thinks you do, and why getting water in your mouth is not a crisis — it is part of the job.Then Taylor opens the mobility church: your hips suck, your joints matter, and if something is supposed to move but does not, that is going to show up in treading, running, rucking, pull-ups, and everything else. Rubbing it with a foam roller and pretending it is fixed is not a plan.The episode closes with the answer candidates still do not want to hear: cardio, cardio, cardio. If you are training for Air Force Special Warfare and your aerobic base is trash, everything else gets harder. Build the engine. Strength matters. Water confidence matters. Mobility matters. But if you cannot absorb volume, recover, and keep stacking work, the pipeline is going to find you.Links:OnesReady.comOperatorTrainingSummit.com00:00 - Ones Ready Intro01:02 - Why We're Answering OTS FAQs01:31 - What Gear and Training Discounts Should I Use?03:56 - Taylor Starch Joins the FAQ04:33 - What OTS Events Are Still Open?05:04 - Why We Started Tracking Candidate Questions06:21 - Can Dependents Move With You During Zulu?08:30 - What's Harder: Pull-Ups or Talking to Gym Crush?09:00 - How Do I Prevent Ear Infections?09:38 - Can Taylor Actually Swim?11:03 - Should I Train Freestyle or Combat Side Stroke?11:56 - How Long Should I Be Able to Swim Continuously?12:45 - What Does the Full Pipeline Look Like?14:08 - Do I Need to Know Every Detail Before I Go?15:19 - What Are the Best Water-Con Mindset Tips?16:06 - Why Am I Panicking if I Have Enough Air?17:13 - How Should I Ramp Training Without a Ship Date?18:01 - What Is Progressive Overload?21:00 - Should Training Feel Like Failure?23:40 - How Much Can Small Weekly Progress Add Up?27:45 - How Do I Prevent Chafing on Runs and Rucks?29:58 - Do I Keep My Personal Belongings at Selection?31:07 - Should I Be Afraid of Passing Out in Water Con?33:53 - What Do I Do if My Mask Floods?34:51 - What Happens if I Lose a Fin?35:56 - How Much Finning Should I Do Before Shipping?38:51 - Is Active Duty Better Than Guard?39:49 - Do My Hips Suck?40:56 - Why Does Mobility Matter So Much?45:12 - Should I Redline Water Con Every Day?49:03 - How Does OTS Build Buddy Breathing Progression?51:58 - How Did Zone Two Change Peaches' Training?53:02 - Why Does Volume Build Confidence?58:00 - How Do I Bulletproof Ankles, Knees, and Hips?01:01:15 - What Does Balanced Training Look Like?01:03:31 - Why Is Aerobic Base the Priority?01:05:00 - What Is the One-Two-Three Training Principle?01:07:19 - Part Two Is Coming01:08:02 - OTS and Ones Ready Wrap-UpSupport the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page:  HERERegister for our Operator Training Summit:  OperatorTrainingSummit.comFind an Air Force Recruiter: AirForce.comCollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code:  ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code):  ATACLeteDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code:  ONESREADYDFND Apparel...

The 2026 G-League Coach of the Year, Vitor Galvani, joins us to detail how he built and adjusted Hedge & Plug in Brazil and the G League. He explains why the coverage made sense in what he calls a “scoring guards league,” how the pickup point changes the plug technique, the triggers for releasing the hedge, and why re-screens and late flips can put the coverage under real stress.   The conversation moves behind the ball to Galvani's “Protection Plan”: the MIG and Fence, jumping pickups to discourage direct corner skips, choosing when not to X-out, “See Numbers Go,” peel switching, and building Black, White, and Gray changeups around the same defensive identity. On offense, Galvani gets into KYP on guard-to-guard screens, creating separation before the action, Hot Stove versus Cold Stove screens, and using second-side pass-and-chase actions to attack switching.    In Start, Sub, or Sit, Galvani challenges the usual pace conversation by starting shot selection, connecting offensive involvement to defensive effort, and explaining why his team moved the ball side to side with purpose. He closes with the relationship between shot quality, Tagging Up, and offensive rebounding, along with the daily investment that shaped his coaching education.What You'll LearnHow the ballhandler's pickup point changes the on-ball defender's responsibilities within Hedge & Plug.  The two triggers Galvani used to release the big from the hedge.  Why re-screens and late flips are difficult Hedge & Plug counters, and when switching becomes the emergency solution.  How the MIG and Fence form the “Protection Plan,” including having the Fence jump the pickup rather than automatically X-out.  How “See Numbers Go” and peel switching turn aggressive gap positioning into opportunities for steals.  Why Galvani trained some peel switches as reads rather than relying on a defensive call.  How Black, White, and Gray allowed his team to change the ball-screen picture without abandoning its defensive base.  Why KYP comes before pace and technique when teaching guard-to-guard screening.  How separation, randomness, and “action on top of action” keep guard-to-guard screens from being steered or jammed.  How shot selection can influence offensive pace, defensive effort, Tagging Up, and offensive rebounding.To join coaches and championship winning staffs from the NBA to High School from over 70 different countries taking advantage of an SG Plus membership, visit HERE!

Modern companies, markets, and institutions routinely behave in ways that would be diagnosed as pathological in a person: emotional detachment, strategic deception, grandiosity, and the treatment of people, animals, and ecosystems as means to an end. Yet, most of the individuals who make up these organizations don't naturally hold these traits and behaviors themselves. So, why does exploitation keep winning at scale, even when most people are decent, cooperative, and want the same basic things?   In this episode, Nate is joined by Greg Elliott, a systems theorist and author of the Psychopathic Selection Hypothesis (PSH), to unpack why our institutions themselves have become so psychopathic, and how that affects the behavior of the average human. Drawing on evolutionary game theory, anthropology, and the neuroscience of psychopathy, Greg argues that cooperation is evolutionarily stable in small tribal systems, but that modern systems where anonymity and abstraction make exploitative, instrumental strategies more profitable. He walks through how this dynamic produces what he calls "entrapment games," in which pro-social people become behaviorally locked into relationships, jobs, and systems where leaving costs more than staying.  All of this builds toward the core of Greg's theory: winning, instrumental strategies get crystallized into the operating logic of institutions themselves and reproduced by anyone who plays the game, whether or not they are personally psychopathic. While Greg doesn't see any easy answers, he does offer a set of possible leverage points: shortening feedback loops, increasing transparency and accountability, and rebuilding smaller, reciprocal communities. If domination isn't an aberration but a predictable output of the game board we've built, what does that mean for how we try to fix it? Is it possible for an entire civilization to behave psychopathically even when the vast majority of the individual people inside it are empathetic and pro-social? And if the ultimate goal is to steer toward a more pro-social system, is there a way to 'win the game' and re-write the rules without also resorting to psychopathic strategies and behaviors? (Conversation recorded on August 13th, 2026)   About Greg Elliott: Greg is a Siemens solutions Consultant specializing in data science and AI, as well as the Co-Founder of Orbyfy. His research and writing of his book, Psychopathic Selection Hypothesis: From Natural Selection to Symbolic Selection, Scale, Abstraction, and Institutional Collapse, led him to found The Institute for Symbolic Selection, an interdisciplinary research program investigating how human-created symbolic systems shape behavior, institutions, and the long-term evolution of civilization.    New to game theory? Here's a short primer:  Game theory is the study of how people make decisions when the outcome depends on what everyone else decides too, often with the potential for mutual gain or mutual harm. Its most famous illustration is the Prisoner's Dilemma: two people, each individually better off betraying the other, who both end up worse off when they do.   For a deeper understanding, check out these links: - Game Theory video explainer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ecJ_fDpWTg  - Game Theory article explainer: https://www.econlib.org/library/Enc/GameTheory.html  - Prisoner's Dilemma video explainer: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/how-to-outsmart-the-prisoner-s-dilemma-lucas-husted    Show Notes and More   Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

August 21, 2026In this episode, Scott, Mark, and Dr. Ray Painter revisit the coding and documentation requirements for cystoscopic bladder tumor treatment. They discuss why tumor size—not the size of the resection bed—drives code selection, how multiple tumors are handled, and why documenting the exact bladder location is increasingly important for diagnosis coding. The team also explains when to use malignant, uncertain, or unspecified neoplasm codes, why you should code based on what is known at the time of the procedure, and when a same-day bladder instillation may or may not be separately billable. The key takeaway: bladder tumor coding is highly detail-dependent, and accurate documentation of size, location, diagnosis, and any separately performed services is essential to support reimbursement PRS Coding and Reimbursement HubAccess the HubBotox LCD AlertDownload the AlertFree In-Office Prostate Biopsy Calculator (Suppoted by UC-Care)Download NowPRS Coding CoursesFor UrologistFor APPsFor Coders, Billers, and Admins Join the Urology Pharma and Tech Pioneer GroupEmpowering urology practices to adopt new technology faster by providing clear reimbursement strategies—ensuring the practice gets paid and patients benefit sooner.         https://www.prsnetwork.com/joinuptpClick Here to Start Your Free Trial of AUACodingToday.com   The Thriving Urology Practice Facebook group.The Thriving Urology Practice Facebook Group link to join:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ThrivingPractice/

They cover practical strategies for identifying AERD, the importance of a detailed NSAID history, and how treatment decisions are shaped by patient goals and disease severity. --- Get the BackTable apphttps://www.backtable.com/app --- Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction02:08 - What Is AERD and Prevalence 06:32 - History Taking and Mechanism 11:10 - Typical Symptom Progression and Alcohol Intolerance 16:41 - When to Do Aspirin Challenge 19:00 - Challenge Protocol And Upper Airway Reactions24:53 - Aspirin Desensitization vs Challenge27:58 - Aspirin therapy after desensitization and Risk of GI Bleeds31:17 - Biologics Change AERD33:42 - Choosing Aspirin Desensitization vs Biologics 35:52 - Patient Counseling and Motivational Interviewing 41:26 - Convenience and Cost of Therapy 44:10 - ENT Allergy Collaboration47:22 - Rapid Fire Pearls51:13 - Future Research & Management Direction54:05 - Final Takeaways --- More about this episode Dr. White explains that AERD affects about 8 to 10 percent of asthmatics, with even higher rates in those with severe asthma or nasal polyps. He reviews typical adult-onset progression, alcohol-related respiratory symptoms, and the underlying pathophysiology, including imbalances in arachidonic acid mediators and leukotriene surges after NSAID exposure.The conversation includes practical questions to ask when taking an NSAID history, such as reactions to common pain relievers or alcohol, and when to consider aspirin challenge. Dr. White also details long-term treatment strategies, including the role of biologics like dupilumab and aspirin therapy after desensitization, with considerations for dosing and gastrointestinal risk. He explains how factors like asthma severity, recurrent polyp disease, sense of smell, cost, and convenience all influence therapy choice. The episode concludes with a discussion of multidisciplinary collaboration, patient counseling, and Dr. White's insights on future research directions in AERD management. --- Resources Aspirin sensitivity and severity of asthma: evidence for irreversible airway obstruction in patients with severe or difficult-to-treat asthmahttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16275362/ Polyphenolic Activation of Basophils Explains Alcohol Hypersensitivity in AERDhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41065188/ New insights into the mechanisms of aspirin-exacerbated respiratory diseasehttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39641750/ The role of aspirin desensitization followed by oral aspirin therapy in managing patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease: A Work Group Report from the Rhinitis, Rhinosinusitis and Ocular Allergy Committee of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunologyhttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7980229/ Safety and outcomes of aspirin desensitization for aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease: A single-center studyhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28550988/ Selection of aspirin dosages for aspirin desensitization treatment in patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory diseasehttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17208597/ Factors influencing aspirin therapy after desensitization (ATAD) tolerance in aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) patientshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41022281/ Feed the Good Wolf: Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindsethttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/42103433/ --- BackTable ENT & Allergy is the go-to podcast for otolaryngologists, allergists, and head and neck surgeons.

This special series of Defensible Decisions, discusses Ogletree's Talent Risk Assessor dashboard that helps employers integrate data from the full employment lifecycle to give management a birds' eye view of the legal risks associated with employment decisions. Episode one features shareholders Scott Kelly (Birmingham/Washington) and Chris Near (Columbia), who are are joined by Chrissy Blantz from the firm's Data Analytics team, to examine how Ogletree's Talent Risk Assessor evaluates selection and hiring processes for legal risk. Using a continuing hypothetical involving a multi-state employer, the group walks through stage-by-stage funnel analysis and explains why a statistical flag should prompt a legally informed inquiry rather than a conclusion about compliance. Scott, who is chair of the firm's Workforce Analytics and Compliance Practice Group, also previews the data quality and documentation considerations that will be addressed in the next episode of the series.

Get on the wait list, launching this fall. (Say it "Hey Sammy," spelled H E Y S A I.) Coaching Youth Hoops on Facebook — The group where this week's listener question came from. Come join the conversation. Coach Bill and Coach Collins tackle a question straight from the Coaching Youth Hoops Facebook group: how do you teach shot selection to young players when every kid wants to jack up threes and every parent in the stands is yelling "shoot it"? The answer is a three word vocabulary any third grader can learn: great shot, good shot, no shot. Coach Bill breaks down how he uses it live in scrimmages, why the follow up question matters more than the label itself, and how the same shot can be a great shot for one player and a no shot for another. The first question almost every kid gets after a game is "how many points did you score?" Nobody asks how many stops they made or how good their defense was. That single question shapes how young players behave with the ball. Basketball is a team sport, and shot selection is where team play either shows up or disappears. Coach Bill's youth level definition of a great shot has three parts a player can self assess in a fraction of a second: You are on balance There is no hand in your face The shot is inside your range, meaning a distance where you make a decent percentage A wide open layup is the purest great shot at the third, fourth, and fifth grade level. Get those layups in. A good shot might be a mid range look with no hand in your face. A no shot is the one where you cannot even hit the rim from that spot, most often a three point heave. At the high school level Coach Collins does much of this teaching in film sessions. Coach Bill does the same work in real time during scrimmages, and the immediacy is the whole point. The feedback lands while the shot is still fresh. The sequence is simple: A questionable shot goes up Blow the whistle and pause the action Ask: "Great shot, good shot, or no shot?" Let the player answer Whatever they say, do not label it right or wrong. Just ask "Why?" Players will usually tell on themselves. "I had a hand in my face and I was off balance." Now they own the definition instead of just hearing it from a coach. The temptation is to declare the verdict. Resist it. The follow up "why" is where the learning lives, because it forces the player to run the checklist out loud. Over the course of a season, Coach Bill saw the payoff: players started passing up their own decent look to feed a teammate who had a great one. Ask them and they will tell you honestly what they can and cannot make. Following through on that knowledge in a live game is the hard part, especially with a parent in the bleachers yelling "shoot the ball" thirty seconds after the coach said not to. This is where coaches have to be careful, and it takes time to learn each player. Two examples from the episode: One kid can hit the rim on a three about a third of the time. Another cannot reach the rim at all. Same shot, different verdict. One girl can slice between two defenders and finish. For her that is a good shot. Another player cannot dribble through two defenders yet, so for her it is not. Coach Collins compares it to a player who can dunk versus one who has to finish with a layup. Different skill levels, different green lights. When a player says "but Steve just shot a three and you told me not to," the answer is not "Steve is better than you." It is: Steve can make that shot right now, and you can do things Steve cannot do. The key word is yet. This is where you are today, and that is okay. Pick your three definitions and say them out loud to your team this week. Keep them short enough that a nine year old can repeat them. Build the whistle and ask routine into every scrimmage. Two or three stoppages is plenty. Ask "why," then stay quiet. Let the player make the case. Spend the first few weeks learning each player's real range so your verdicts are individualized and fair. Talk to your parents early about what a good shot means on your team, so the message from the stands matches the message from the bench. "I don't say that's right or wrong. I just say, okay, why? Why is it a no shot?" — Coach Bill Episode SummaryTimestampsTimeTopic00:00Welcome back, and Coach Collins on retirement, no more grading tests00:33Why a retiring coach should give the new coach space01:37Will he still show up to the games?02:15Sponsors: CoachingYouthHoops.com and HeySai.com03:56Today's topic: good shot, great shot, no shot04:02Why kids default to selfish shots, and the "how many points did you score" problem04:50Coach Bill defines a great shot at the youth level05:31How do players learn their own range?06:00The live scrimmage drill: whistle, ask, let them answer06:42What each category looks like in a youth game07:13Coach Collins on doing the same work through film at the high school level08:16What happens when a player disagrees or points to a teammate09:11Differentiating standards by player without calling anyone out10:15Final thoughts and where to find moreKey Takeaways1.

Michael Wayne grew up in Mississippi, attended the Naval Academy, left after his father died, built a career in business and investments while running a hedge fund for fifteen years, spent twenty-five years as a clandestine CIA contractor operating across some of the most sensitive and most dangerous missions available — and then went to Ukraine after the 2022 Russian invasion to organize humanitarian aid, evacuate women and children from combat zones, train Ukrainian soldiers, and deliver equipment to the front line before discovering widespread corruption tied to Ukraine aid that he says reached powerful US politicians. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, he shares what twenty-five years as a CIA contractor actually looked like from the inside, what changed after 9/11 in the intelligence world, what the Ukraine work actually involved, what the corruption he discovered actually implicated, and what the DOJ prosecution that followed his decision to push back against that corruption actually produced — including a wire fraud conviction, a federal prison sentence at FPC Montgomery, and what he believes was a deliberate government effort to make him a convicted felon before he could become a whistleblower. _____________________________________________  #TrueCrime #espionage #cia #prisonstory _____________________________________________ Thank you to CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Download Cash App Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/ksjh06pb #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

This one is Claude Sonnet 5 - did a decent job. Got Gemini to do it at the same time and it was SHIT. --------------------------Jack the Insider and Hong Kong Jack open with an air-conditioner instalation story that would give any WHS officer a heart attack, before diving into the immigration debate consuming the Western world, Albo's cringeworthy podcast melon gag and the diplomatic fallout with Japan, Angus Taylor's Twitter misfire, a grim Newspoll for Labor, the conviction of former Bishop Christopher Saunders, the unravelling Mahmoud Fazal/Four Corners scandal, an AI Royal Commission, Israel's rejection of the Gaza peace plan, Ukraine's drone edge, a spot of Marxism 101, and a bumper sports wrap covering the Ashes build-up, Geelong's concussion waiver scandal and the NRL's new PNG and Perth franchises.00:00:26 — Cold open: Hong Kong air-con drama. Hong Kong Jack recounts tradesmen scaling the building exterior, tying off to a sewer pipe and rigging a platform in under an hour — a workplace safety non-starter back home.00:01:20 — Immigration policy in limbo. Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke pulls his National Press Club address after Cabinet gets cold feet on migration numbers; One Nation capitalises on the vacuum.00:02:17 — Paul Kelly on the West's immigration reckoning. The hosts unpack Kelly's column on multiculturalism's failures in Europe versus its comparative success in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the US, and why a clear pathway to national identity matters.00:04:23 — The politician/public disconnect. A Financial Times study (John Burn-Murdoch) showing big gaps between public and political opinion on migrant assimilation across Britain, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden.00:06:10 — Is the far right the cause or the symptom? A robust back-and-forth on whether One Nation, AfD, Reform UK and Le Pen's party are driving the backlash or simply capitalising on governments that lost control of migration systems.00:08:50 — Albo's podcast melon gag fallout. The PM's crass "melons" line about the Japanese Prime Minister on a comedy podcast draws a diplomatic complaint from Tokyo and calls for an apology he still hasn't given.00:10:39 — Why politicians chase the "youth" podcast circuit. Discussion of Albo's ties to Sandilands-style FM radio and whether the audience numbers justify the reputational risk.00:12:32 — Latika Bourke's double standard question. Would a corporate CEO survive the same scrutiny as a Prime Minister? The Jacks disagree on how novel the standard really is.00:14:14 — Angus Taylor's Twitter misfire. A dissected, over-written tweet accusing the "socialist" Albanese government lands badly — "people might think they're bumbling fools, but they don't think they're socialist."00:15:53 — Angus Taylor and the ICAC donation question. A circular exchange over an unresolved email regarding a potential donation tied to a group under ICAC scrutiny.00:17:52 — Coalition social media strategy. Jane Hume's five-a-day Instagram habit and whether the Coalition's messaging is landing with anyone at this point in the electoral cycle.00:18:52 — Productivity and work-from-home. Westpac CEO Anthony Miller warns rates could stay elevated into 2028 without a productivity fix; Victoria shelves its work-from-home legislation ahead of the planned 1 September start.00:21:36 — Red tape and the housing/business regulation debate. Building approval bottlenecks, the Coalition's building-standards rollback proposal, and why company/tax reporting (not ABN registration) is the real handicap for small business.00:24:14 — Newspoll: Labor's primary vote "plunges." Labor down to 29 percent (from 31), described by the Jacks as more "meandering" than plunging — with a look at how far off Labor is from its 34.5 percent election benchmark.00:25:31 — Kos Samaras/RedBridge on the new voter blocs. A breakdown of Labor's inner-city, under-45, migrant-heavy base; One Nation's mortgage-stressed, outer-suburban trades vote; and the Coalition's shrinking, wealthy, over-55 remnant — plus where the Jacks think the analysis oversimplifies.00:28:42 — How the Coalition lost its heartland. Reflections on 19 years of Coalition government since Howard, the failure to read demographic warning signs, and the loss of both the "asset rich" and "asset poor" ends of its old coalition.00:31:49 — Content warning: child sexual abuse. Former Bishop of Broome Christopher Saunders, 76, found guilty of one count of sexual penetration and multiple indecent assault charges against a young Indigenous man; sentencing yet to be scheduled.00:32:50 — Saunders' pattern of behaviour. Allegations of financial mismanagement, smuggling alcohol into dry Indigenous communities, a 2019 police raid uncovering exploitation material, and a Vatican finding he likely abused Indigenous youth.00:34:59 — The Bishop Ronald Mulkearns parallel. The Ballarat bishop's Royal Commission appearance and mysterious final holiday hosted by Saunders in Broome shortly before his death.00:37:06 — The Four Corners/Mahmoud Fazal scandal. Fazal's background as a self-described former Mongols bike gang sergeant-at-arms turned journalist; his Cocaine Nation and Meth Highway reports pulled from air, along with a Background Briefing program.00:38:33 — Media Watch's verdict. Linton Besser's assessment that Fazal was "embellishing his journalism," and how ABC's editorial oversight failed across two flagship programs.00:39:39 — The Jordan Shanks (Friendly Jordies) threat allegations. Fazal's alleged role relaying threats from the Alameddine crime family after Shanks' house was firebombed twice; Fazal disputes the death-threat characterisation.00:41:36 — Where journalism crosses into participation. Jack the Insider's personal rule against interviewing active criminals, and a wider discussion of when reporters become "players" rather than observers — including a detour to the "Poison Dwarf," Clayton Milne.00:46:20 — A 2006 ice epidemic documentary as the gold standard. A comparison piece where public health officials and police saw the crystal meth wave coming years before government — done properly, without masked, unverifiable sources.00:48:21 — South Australia's $3 million AI Royal Commission. Premier Peter Malinauskas announces the inquiry; the Jacks are sceptical it will produce much, suspecting it's more about attracting AI investment.00:49:27 — The AI investment bubble risk. Massive capital flowing into Anthropic, Meta and Google versus cheaper, competitive Chinese models — and what that imbalance could mean for the S&P 500's AI-heavy weighting.00:51:00 — Israel rejects Trump's 15-point Gaza plan. Distrust that Hamas will disarm, and why the stakes feel existential rather than abstract for Israelis.00:52:32 — Israel's 27 October election. Netanyahu's fragile coalition, Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Smotrich's collapsing poll numbers, and the growing backlash over ultra-Orthodox exemptions from IDF service.00:57:09 — Ukraine: Starlink access and drone warfare. Elon Musk restricting Ukrainian Starlink use against Russia, a declined meeting with Trump, and Ukraine's drone successes — including a joint exercise with US forces in Germany.01:00:29 — Reports of distress aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln. Unconfirmed accounts of sailors going overboard after roughly ten months of continuous deployment.01:01:52 — Stephen Kotkin on Marxism's enduring appeal. Why intellectuals keep returning to Marxist ideas despite the historical body count — and a tangent on campus recruitment, ASIO and the "special role" intellectuals imagine for themselves.01:05:15 — Iran, Cambodia and the fate of the intellectual class. Historical examples of revolutions turning on the intelligentsia that helped bring them about.01:06:06 — Sport check: the Ashes build-up begins. Australia's shaky start against Bangladesh, Steve Smith's lucky reprieve, and questions over Alex Carey's batting position and the middle order.01:08:24 — Selection headaches: Labuschagne and Nathan Lyon. Marnus Labuschagne's technical struggles and whether Lyon plays out the year, with the World Test Championship and next year's Ashes on the horizon.01:11:03 — Geelong's concussion contract waiver scandal. A player reportedly signing away his right to sue over concussion management; questions over why the club didn't submit the waiver to the AFL or AFLPA, and calls for points deductions rather than fines.01:16:04 — Jake Kelly's likely retirement and player consent. Whether it matters who initiated the waiver, and why players will "sign anything" to keep playing despite long-term brain injury risks.01:18:30 — NRL expansion: PNG Chiefs and Perth Bears. Tax-free salaries giving PNG Chiefs an effective cap advantage, players relocating to a purpose-built village in Port Moresby, and Perth's 2027 entry into the competition.01:22:36 — Poaching rugby fans, AFL's expansion and wildcard finals. The Perth Bears' leadership, Tasmania Devils' draft concessions, Nigel Lappin's coaching move, and early impressions of the AFL's new wildcard finals round.

A new ERP will transform the day-to-day jobs of your people. But it is unrealistic to include every single team member at your organization in every step of such a complex process. How can you navigate so many differing opinions in such an important initiative? With so much weight on the shoulders of those leading the effort, how do you make the right decision for who gets a say and who doesn't? On this episode of The ERP Advisor, ERP selection expert, Quentin DeWitt breaks down how organizations should fill their ERP selection project team, and how to structure the team for success.Connect with us!https://www.erpadvisorsgroup.com866-499-8550LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/company/erp-advisors-groupTwitter:https://twitter.com/erpadvisorsgrpFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/erpadvisorsInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/erpadvisorsgroupPinterest:https://www.pinterest.com/erpadvisorsgroupMedium:https://medium.com/@erpadvisorsgroup

Send us Fan MailMost ERP initiatives struggle not because of technology limitations but because of misalignment among business stakeholders, IT, and software vendors. Organizations often move too quickly into product demonstrations without establishing structured requirements, assuming the software will naturally adapt to their processes. This webinar explores how a well-designed ERP request for proposal (RFP) serves as a strategic cost-control tool rather than a procurement formality. By creating clear requirements, reducing ambiguity, and establishing a shared framework for evaluation, a disciplined RFP process helps organizations avoid costly implementation mistakes and make more informed ERP investment decisions.Video: https://www.elevatiq.com/events-and-webinars/erp-rfp-how-to-save-30-on-erp-selection-costs/Questions for Panelists?

This post officially kicks off my Venice Immersive 2025 coverage, see links to all 38 episodes and 30+ hours of interviews down below. We're starting off with the interview that I did with Doug Liman (co-founder of 30 Ninjas), Julina Tatlock (co-founder of 30 Ninjas), & Jed Weintrob (co-founder of 30 Ninjas), & Max Spear (Product Lead of Android XR at Google) about Asteroid on Saturday, August 30, 2025 at Venice Immersive in Venice, Italy. Here is the story synopsis for Asteroid: "Asteroid is an immersive film and interactive story extension made for the launch of Google's new Android XR platform. The 180° immersive short film is a high-stakes action thriller about a group of strangers who take an old Russian Soyuz rocket to mine a near-earth, treasure laden asteroid for a chance at unimaginable wealth. After the film, the experience continues and the audience enters the world of Asteroid when they receive an SOS from one of the characters, DK Metcalf, who was left for dead. The viewer becomes a player when they are invited to aid in DK's rescue. Through speaking with an AI-generated version of DK — played by the NFL player as himself — the user determines the truth about what happened on the asteroid and sends his exact location to NASA for rescue." Here are the contextual domains that are explored: Long distance travel [9] where someone is left behind (de facto exile) [12], and there is a rescue mission where you as a character [1] help out the protagonist [7] in the second half, but also a lot of mystery [12] to figure out and investigate [9] Here is the Elemental Center of Gravity: 1st Center of Gravity of Emotional Presence: cinematic Virtual Reality thriller that begins as a film and continues as an immersive story game. Combination of live-action 180-video along with CGI-driven animations also in 180-video2nd Center of Gravity of Earth Element / Environmental and Embodied Presence: Worldbuilding of sci-fi extraction of asteroid, you embody a character in story in the last part, and you break the fourth wall in the onboarding talking to the actor who plays a character via AI3rd Center of Gravity of Air Element / Mental and Social Presence: Conversational-driven AI Story Extension - You talk to the actor DK Metcalf at the beginning and with the character at the end. A bit of puzzling together of the myserious aspects of the story4th Center of Gravity of Fire Element / Active Presence: continues as an immersive story game - Improv convo + slightly nudged and directed exploration Archetypal Themes and Character Explored: Everyone are anti-heroes archetypes - Power and Greed vs Limitations, constraints, boundaries, death. Doug Liman says there aren't many anti-heroes in space movies, Han Solo is an exception. What if all of the characters were Han Solos? What drama would ensue? Artist Statement: "I've always thought of myself as an immersive filmmaker. The goal was to put the audience in the action, not to be sort of passively watching it. Now that the technology has caught up with us, I really can put the audience in the rocket. Asteroid is the story of a ragtag group of astronauts who booked a ride on a used Soyuz spacecraft. An asteroid passes near Earth. It's laden with precious metals and gems. If you can get there, you can become insanely wealthy. It's a modern gold rush."

I interviewed Sister Sylvester about Constantinopoliad on Friday, September 12, 2025 at Venice Immersive in Venice, Italy. Here is the story synopsis for Constantinopoliad: "Constantinopoliad is a collective reading and audio work. A response to the archive of the poet Constantine Cavafy, the story is inspired by the blank and torn-out pages in Constantinopoliad, an Epic, the journal the teenage Cavafy began when he and his family fled Alexandria; by lost and missing queer archives through time; and by the ghosts, both erotic and historical, that visit the older Cavafy in his poems." Here are the contextual domains that are explored: The exploration of identity [1] as a person has moved from his home [4], and into a distant land [9] with some feelingsof being exiled [12], but also the implication of homosexuality [5] within the context of having to remain hidden or taboo [12]. It's dipping into the vast archive [9] of Cavafy's expressions of identity [1] and poetry and art [5], and recontextualizing as these universal experiences that are still very much relevant today [9]. Here is the Elemental Center of Gravity: 1st Center of Gravity of Air Element / Mental and Social Presence: collaboratively reading together - narrative distillation of an archive. You listening to the audio narration, but you have to negotiate how to co-read this "book" object together. The form of this "book" also deviates from normal book where it is part pop-up book, but also a flat stage to be explored with the other person. This externalized book becomes a bit of an abstracted theatrical stage for the story as it unfolds, but there are also more explicitly architectural elements to this "book" object as well. The piece also creates an implicit invitation to connect and talk with your audience partner afterwards about the piece2nd Center of Gravity of Water Element / Emotional Presence: AMAZING MUSIC + time-based narration + lighting. There's some amazing synchrony between the music, the timing of the reading, as well as the lighting. It really gives a strong sense of time. The reading of the story almost feels like a narrative podcast of sorts, but is mostly a matter of convenience of recording of the live performance so that it could be toured at immersive festivals without the burden of paying for all of the performers and musicians.3rd Center of Gravity of Earth Element / Environmental and Embodied Presence: Book like object as an architectural artifact, and has a whole spatial journey. The installation also had tables with lighting effects, but also there were projctions that were happening within the space as well. Most of the focus of spatial experience happens within the context of the architectural nature of the "book" object, but the other theatrical elements of the environment definitely help to cultivate an overall mood.4th Center of Gravity of Fire Element / Active Presence: Explore the story through various interactions. There's no narrative agency per se, although one could deviate from directly reading along with the text. There's an implicit contract to stay on course with your actions since you're negotiating the experience with another person. Archetypal Themes and Character Explored: Exploration of the "lost and missing queer archives through time; and by the ghosts, both erotic and historical, that visit the older Cavafy in his poems" Artist Statement: "My favorite response to this work was an audience member who described it as 'making love to a stranger through a book'. The work invites audiences into a sensual and concrete encounter with Cavafy's life and poems: fingers making contact with history; illumination revealing images from between the pages; sounds conjuring the ghosts of 19th century Alexandrian cabarets. With words by sister sylvester, score by Nadah El Shazly, and illustrations by Efrîn Özyetis, Constantinopoliad is a multi-sensory encounter with the past, and with forgotten stories that can haunt us into new imaginings for the present."

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 8-06-2026: >ul> An emailer with persistent nine-month nerve damage in her right leg after a hysterectomy asks whether peptides could help. Dr. Dawn attributes the injury to lithotomy positioning during surgery, then reviews the main nerve-regeneration candidates in the FDA peptide review pipeline: BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound, strong rat data on sciatic nerve recovery with thicker myelin sheaths), intracellular sigma peptide (targets glial scar CSPGs blocking CNS regrowth), C3 peptide 156-181, GHK-Cu (copper peptide, upregulates nerve growth factor and neurotrophin-3), self-assembling hydrogel scaffolds for bridging nerve gaps, ARA-290/cibinetide (an erythropoietin fragment with early small fiber neuropathy trial data), and Semax (used internationally for stroke rehab). She adds standard functional-medicine adjuncts: alpha-lipoic acid, methylated B12, and methylfolate at high doses for six months. An emailer asks about safe features when buying an infrared sauna. Dr. Dawn covers three concerns: EMF exposure (look for shielded/grounded heaters testing under 1 milligauss at seat level, avoid unshielded Wi-Fi and Bluetooth panels); VOC off-gassing (avoid plywood, particle board, and MDF because of formaldehyde and benzene release, and avoid Western red cedar and pine because of high terpene emissions and instead choose poplar, basswood, or eucalyptus); and avoid built-in oxygen ionizers, which produce ozone as a coronal-discharge byproduct that irritates airways and generates secondary oxygenated VOCs. Dr. Dawn covers the surprisingly long list of medications that raise estrogen in middle-aged men—including nearly all antidepressants and antiepileptics, statins, NSAIDs (specifically naproxen and indomethacin but not ibuprofen), most blood pressure medications, PPIs, H2 blockers, Parkinson's drugs, antihistamines, and muscle relaxants. She recommends annual monitoring of the estrogen-to-testosterone ratio and offers rebalancing options: topical chrysin (blocks aromatization), indole-3-carbinol, calcium D-glucarate (blocks enterohepatic estrogen recirculation), soy (competitive receptor inhibition), and grape skin extract. The first mRNA-based flu vaccine was approved this week for adults 50 and over. Beyond the 27% improvement in seasonal efficacy over conventional shots, the strategic advantage is manufacturing speed. This will be critical when or if bird flu mutates to respiratory human transmission. Since mRNA vaccine can be reprogrammed from a new viral sequence in weeks versus the three-to-four-month growth cycle for conventional flu vaccines, rapid response can save lives. But mRNA vaccine side effects include more injection-site pain and fatigue - more like a tetanus shot than a traditional flu shot.. A Spanish prospective study of chemicals affected puberty in the young studied 500 girls followed from ages 7-10 and again at 14-16 used urine chemical measurements as objective exposure markers rather than food diaries. Ethylenethiourea, a metabolite of dithiocarbamate fungicides used heavily on strawberriess,was associated with earlier menarche, while a chlorpyrifos metabolite was associated with delayed menarche. this latter effect was more pronounced in overweight girls whose fat tissue concentrated the compound. Dr. Dawn recommends organic strawberries and keeping children away from fumigated fields. University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine researchers developed a chewing gum from lablab beans containing the natural antiviral protein FRIL, which reduced oral HPV by up to 93% in samples from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients. The gum also suppressed Fusobacterium nucleatum and Porphyromonas gingivalis, oral bacteria that promote cancer recurrence. Michigan State University's Hamburger lab studying delphinium (larkspur) alkaloids joined forces with Tomáš Pluskal's Czech Academy of Sciences lab studying wolfsbane (monkshood) after meeting at a Barcelona conference. Together they mapped the biosynthetic assembly line for aconite—an alkaloid with valuable applications against malaria, pain, cancer, and agricultural pests but impossibly slow to extract from source plants—and cloned the pathway into tobacco, which grows aggressively and produces large quantities of the compound. An emailer named in the message asks about an incidentally-discovered enlarged aorta on CT. Dr. Dawn notes it officially becomes an aneurysm at 4 cm (annual monitoring) or 5 cm (six-month monitoring), with smoking cessation critical since tobacco directly weakens the aortic wall. She describes the "zipper of fire" back pain of dissection versus catastrophic rupture, and notes Medicare covers a one-time screening ultrasound for ever-smokers over 65.

Summer is here - we enter the long days and sultry nights with the garden looking glorious - but always looking to the horizon for a little bit of rain to keep things looking green and lush. Herbaceous borders are set to maximum colour, vegetable beds seem to multiply in growth weekly and the gardener's tan is ever present. So enjoy the long summer days, take some time to appreciate time in your garden and join the Talking Heads pair as they continue to look after their planty spaces, as well as enjoying their gardens at home.We give a long overdue shoutout to our wonderful listeners in this episode - and in doing so discuss raptors, buddleja aphids, petrichor (Lucy is NOT jealous...), chilli peppers, fuchsia gall mites and tropical tree selection in a Lancashire garden - in doing so we inadvertently fill the whole 30 minutes when we actually had planned to also discuss summer gardening 'funk' (which we have now moved to next weeks episode). If this isn't evidence that this podcasting duo are the king and queen of hortiwaffle, I don't know what is!Instagram links:Lucy lucychamberlaingardensSaul plantsmansaulIntro and Outro music from https://filmmusic.io"Fireflies and Stardust" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com)License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)Support the show

Chris Pierce and Sean Graham from Maven Cost Segregation discuss how most real estate investors overlook the incredible tax benefits of niche asset classes like gas stations and car washes. Sean Graham, owner of Maven Cost Segregation, reveals how these properties unlock massive depreciation advantages, sometimes allowing for 100% bonus depreciation in Year 1. Imagine buying a gas station for $1.2 million with just a few hundred thousand in land, and being able to write off the entire property immediately. That's the power of understanding IRS rules and proper classification.
