The addictive and toxic nature of smartphones has ruined children's attention spans and their “in real life" connections and this ban could help them reconnect with the elusive parchment joy of books.Liam strongly echoes Allison's stance, arguing that tech platforms expose children to "relentless bullying" and corporate exploitation.

This week, NK News CEO Chad O'Carroll and Chris Green of International Crisis Group join the podcast to discuss a Seoul court's decision to sentence former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol to 30 years in prison, finding that he orchestrated a drone operation that sought to provoke a North Korean response and create a pretext for declaring martial law. The episode also explores Chinese President Xi Jinping's recent visit to Pyongyang, the absence of denuclearization from official summit readouts, China's increasingly pragmatic approach to North Korea's nuclear status and the prospects for expanded trade, tourism and people-to-people exchanges. Finally, Chad and Chris preview the upcoming West Coast Exchange, a three-day gathering of Korea watchers, diplomats, journalists, academics and policymakers. They discuss the event's emphasis on informal networking and field visits, the value of off-the-record conversations and why participants often gain as much from discussions outside the conference room as they do from the formal sessions. About the podcast: The NK News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by Alannah Hill exclusively for NK News, covering the latest developments in and around North Korea. Each episode breaks down the week's news cycle with NK News journalists, analysts and expert guests.
Ever wonder what happens when an HVAC contractor realizes that heating and cooling systems are only as good as the building envelope itself? Discover how bridging the gap between HVAC and building performance can transform a standard trade business into a market-leading enterprise. On this episode of the R-Value Podcast, IDI expert Ken Allison interviews Brady Gautreaux. In this conversation, Brady shares his journey from starting as a 16-year-old HVAC helper to founding Brems Energy Solutions. He outlines the exact moment he realized that standard Manual J calculations couldn't solve home comfort issues without addressing underlying insulation and air sealing deficiencies, prompting him to pivot toward a comprehensive building science approach. We also talk powerful strategies for standing out in highly competitive markets through community education and strategic networking. Brady explains how offering specialized training classes to local home inspectors, realtors, and code officials established his company as the ultimate authority on quality control, keeping his business focused firmly on long-term value over rock-bottom pricing. Inside this episode... 01:42 – The Missing Puzzle Piece: How troubleshooting failed Manual J calculations led Brady to embrace blower door testing, air sealing, and insulation. 05:48 – Shifting the Builder Mindset: Moving local builders away from a commodity price-driven mindset toward a focus on long-term quality and partnership. 08:34 – Playing the Long Game: How anchoring a business to a strict quality control tagline helps navigate tough, low-bid competition. 12:45 – Becoming the Local Hero: Building organic relationships and credibility by hosting packed training classes for home inspectors and real estate boards. 16:09 – The Future of the Trades: Navigating modern digital marketing hurdles and balancing the rise of AI with the irreplaceable value of physical labor.
Is your short-term rental truly set up to cash flow, or are you just hoping the market will do the heavy lifting for you? Most hosts look at dynamic pricing as a "set it and forget it" tool, but real revenue strategy requires getting behind the wheel of your data.In this episode, I sit down with Colorado host and revenue strategist Melissa Stewart, the founder of Rev Collective. Melissa scaled from zero to four high-performing mountain cabins in under two years by combining a value-add investment blueprint with a highly intentional, data-driven revenue management strategy.We talk about:Buying distressed mountain properties for maximum negotiating power, doing a full gut rehab to build equity, and leveraging a smart refi to roll into the next deal.Moving past simple bulleted descriptions to craft narrative-driven listing copy that makes guests feel like they are walking through a storybook.What a "healthy" MPI looks like, how to recognize if you are underpriced or overpriced, and why treating dynamic pricing tools like autopilot is a massive mistake.Designing interior and exterior spaces with a strict guest avatar in mind—from luxury robes and sound machines to curated coffee and tea stations.Shifting your mindset around money as energy, shedding old financial stories, and building wealth that creates real opportunities for other women in hospitality.Melissa pulls back the curtain on how her background in accounting and data analysis gave her a unique edge in the short-term rental market. You'll hear how she bridges the gap between high-end hospitality and cold, hard data, and how she built her company specifically to empower women hosts who love the guest experience but feel overwhelmed by numbers and tech.If you are ready to stop guessing on your pricing, master your local pacing, and inject serious intention into your operations, this conversation will completely redefine your approach to revenue. Get ready to stop relying on market luck and start commanding the rates your property deserves.HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY POINTS:[01:14] A short introduction about our guests Melissa Stewart and shared her journey from exiting a business to getting into the short-term rental industry[03:06] Melissa reflects on how a background in real estate and a desire for lifestyle-driven wealth building led her and her husband into the world of short-term rentals[05:30] How strategic investing, leveraging equity, and taking bold action helped Melissa scale from one short-term rental property to four in a relatively short time[07:36] Melissa and I dive into how taking on distressed properties, embracing renovation challenges, and viewing obstacles as opportunities helped accelerate equity growth and STR success[12:31] How embracing problems, adapting quickly, and treating short-term rental hosting as a constant problem-solving business is essential for long-term success [14:36] Melissa unpacks how creating intentional five-star guest experiences, strategic branding, and emotionally driven listings became the foundation of cash-flowing STR properties at the top of the market[21:10] Melissa highlights how overlooking listing strategy after investing heavily in a property is a common mistake, and how emotional storytelling and optimization are key to turning beautiful homes into booked STRs[24:54] How STR success depends not just on design, but on operations, pricing, and listing strategy working together to drive higher nightly rates and long-term profitability[28:08] Melissa shares how her passion for entrepreneurship, wealth building, and supporting women in business ultimately led her to launch The Rev Collective[34:16] Melissa's emphasis on active revenue management as a critical profit driver that requires strategy, oversight, and expertise beyond Pricelabs[38:15] Melissa's guidance on using listing optimization, market pacing, and key revenue metrics to make smarter pricing decisions and improve booking performance [43:23] The lightning round Golden Nuggets:“Know your obstacles.

A shift is happening in the skies right now, as airlines quietly slash schedules and strip away basic comforts taken for granted for decades. If you don't double check your bookings, you could be walking blindly into a canceled itinerary—or a "bare-bones" cabin with zero food or water. Meanwhile, a strange new industry experiment means the ticket you bought for a connecting flight may turn out to be for an unforeseen road trip instead. Clark explains. Shifting to the housing market, if you're looking to purchase your first home, Clark has a strict warning: Wait. It is a historically bad time to buy your first house in most of America, and doing so right now is essentially stepping into a financial trap.

Cancer is never convenient, and it never arrives when a patient is truly prepared, according to Daniel C. McFarland, DO, who began the most recent episode of Oncology On the Go with this sentiment. When individuals enter the high-stakes, highly coordinated world of oncology, they do so under extreme duress, often presenting the versions of themselves that are most under stress. In this environment, clinical teams frequently encounter behaviors that get unfairly lumped into the vague and pejorative category of the “difficult patient.” What happens when these challenges stem from an underlying personality disorder rather than just temporary situational anxiety? In this episode, McFarland was joined by psycho-oncology expert Kaleena Chilcote, MD, to unpack the inner workings of personality styles and disorders within oncologic science. Together, they explored the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorders (DSM) diagnostic framework, spanning the eccentric, dramatic, and anxious categories. They discussed how these enduring, pervasive traits impact a patient's health care journey. Shifting the conversation away from the stigma of labels, McFarland and Chilcote delivered actionable, real-world advice for oncology teams. They discussed how to utilize objective, descriptive charting; initiate a pause to check your own provider emotions; and build highly consistent, structured boundaries. From managing frequent phone calls to intentionally scheduling short, high-frequency touchpoints, the pair provided a roadmap for turning interpersonal conflict into therapeutic collaboration, proving that underneath the defense mechanisms, every patient has a uniquely valuable strength to connect with. McFarland is the director of the Psycho-Oncology Program at Wilmot Cancer Center and a medical oncologist who specializes in head, neck, and lung cancer, in addition to being a psycho-oncology editorial advisory board member for the journal ONCOLOGY®. Chilcote is director of Psycho-Oncology in the Department of Palliative and Supportive Care at the Taussig Cancer Center, part of the Cleveland Clinic.

The high statistical prevalence of burnout in the education system has moved past the realm of speculation and into undeniable systemic reality. While modern teacher preparation programs provide good technical training, they consistently fail to equip people with the emotional tools required to withstand chronic occupational stress. Katrina G. Huels, an educational consultant, former special education leader, and author of Transformational Tools for Special Educators, joins Emily to talk about the cumulative emotional load of behavior management, chronic staffing shortages, and high administrative demands. They outline practical micro-interventions, and reframe emotional intelligence not as a passive wellness trend, but as a critical, evidence-based instructional skill set. TAKEAWAYS Educator burnout frequently leads to detachment from instructional purpose, high absenteeism, and significant early-career retention deficits. Teacher preparation and district professional development programs rarely include formal training on managing chronic physiological stress and emotional fatigue. Shifting an educator's baseline out of a chronic survival state requires self-awareness, self-regulation, and internal motivation. Integrating brief, structured regulatory check-ins into existing daily routines helps prevent acute stress responses from overriding clear situational analysis. Sustained district-wide improvements in school culture and collaboration starts at the top, in administration.

Every star in the night sky is moving – orbiting the center of the galaxy. Some are moving toward us, while others are moving away. We can’t see that motion because the stars are so remote. But we can measure it with special instruments – one of the most important techniques in astronomy. The instruments break the light of a star or other object into its individual wavelengths or colors. Each chemical element imprints its own “barcode” in that array of wavelengths. A star’s motion toward or away from us causes the barcodes to shift position. If it’s moving away from us, the shift is toward longer, redder wavelengths: a redshift. And if it’s moving toward us, the shift is toward shorter, bluer wavelengths: a blueshift. The size of the shift reveals the speed. The technique also can reveal how fast a star is spinning; the side that’s rotating toward us is blueshifted, while the opposite side is redshifted. And it can reveal orbiting companions; their gravity pushes and pulls the star, slightly changing its motion. Two bright stars with well-measured shifts are in view as the sky darkens this evening. Regulus is in the west, well to the upper left of the brilliant planets Venus and Jupiter. Its light is redshifted; it’s moving away from us at about 9300 miles per hour. Antares, quite low in the southeast, is sliding toward us at about 8600 miles per hour – giving its light a definite blueshift. Script by Damond Benningfield
**Totalitarian Targets and Trillion-Dollar Tycoons: The Tech Battleground** In this hard-hitting segment, the hosts expose a deeply troubling pattern of tech censorship and foreign policy maneuvering. The monologue begins by breaking down the collision between global capitalism and European speech crackdowns, analyzing the severe legal threats Elon Musk faces overseas. European nations—specifically the UK and Ireland—are threatening to arrest the tech billionaire for violating their restrictive Online Safety Acts after Musk refused to remove a video documenting a horrific migrant attack in Ireland. The hosts detail a series of shocking escalation tactics from European leadership, including Keir Starmer's push for digital IDs to access the internet and algorithmic surveillance tools designed to scan and save private messages before they are encrypted. Shifting focus back to domestic policy, the commentary highlights Department of Homeland Security Head Markwayne Mullin's reports regarding the ongoing border crisis alongside the bizarre funding loops keeping hostile foreign regimes afloat. The segment wraps up with a fiery critique of Senate leadership, accusing institutional elites of intentionally blocking legislation like the "Defund the Taliban Act" while foreign adversaries are systematically built up at the expense of American safety.

**Tattoos, Traffic, and Sepsis: The Left's Great Blind Spot** In this multi-topic segment, the hosts expose deep-seated double standards on the national stage. The monologue starts with the disturbing surge of Maine progressive candidate Graham Platner, who secured 73% of the vote despite ex-girlfriend reports confirming he has an SS Totenkopf Nazi tattoo. The host compares Platner's political insulation to a 13-year-old in Richland County, South Carolina, who faced full hate-crime enhancements for graffitiing a swastika, pointing out the gross hypocrisy of the establishment. Shifting to the border crisis, the commentary highlights Department of Homeland Security Head Markwayne Mullin's report that the Trump administration has rescued 146,000 human-trafficked migrant children. The host blasts the previous administration for staffing a child crisis line with just a single person—leaving 65,000 distress calls unanswered—and praises Florida's local law-enforcement deputization model over South Carolina's inaction. Finally, the segment transitions to a rare positive note on AI technology, celebrating a new software system in Florida hospitals that successfully cut patient sepsis mortality rates in half.

**Funding the Enemy: The Shocking Continuity of U.S. Cash Infusions to Iran and the Taliban** In this hard-hitting segment, the hosts expose a deeply troubling pattern within American foreign policy: the continuous funding of hostile regimes and designated terror groups. The monologue begins by tearing into the Trump administration's newly proposed maritime framework with Iran, drawing explicit, unfavorable parallels to Barack Obama's 2015 JCPOA. Labeling the deal a "disastrous" mistake and a cash-for-nothing transfer, the commentary highlights how temporary sanctions relief allows Tehran to cash in on billions of dollars in backed-up oil reserves. Despite Iran's record of over thirty red-line violations and constant ceasefire strikes, the U.S. receives only a vague "framework" to have a conversation about enriched uranium stockpiles. Shifting focus from the Middle East to Afghanistan, the commentary dives into an equally stunning revelation regarding the Taliban. Despite a 20-year war that cost $2.3 trillion and claimed 2,456 American lives, the U.S. government continues to send $40 million a week to Afghanistan. The host calls out Senate Majority Leader John Thune for blocking a vote on the House-passed "Defund the Taliban Act," accusing him of outright lying on the record about his awareness of the bill. Citing warnings from intelligence analysts, the segment details how the Taliban is currently protecting reconstituted Al-Qaeda and ISIS terror camps. Whether through sanctions relief to Iran or direct financial aid to Kabul, the host delivers a scathing indictment of a system where foreign adversaries are built up "brick by brick" at the direct expense of American service members. The episode wraps up with a lighter look at domestic business news, touching on the massive financial buzz surrounding a SpaceX IPO.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Darnell Nurse's trade request, where he might end up, the Mike Babcock situation, line combinations, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether or not Darnell Nurse carries more risk than some fans are acknowledging. Given the minutes he plays and his constant availability, it's worth having a discussion about whether or not moving on from the player will create a bigger hole than some people think. While there's no debate that the contract has become an issue, there is still a strong hockey player there that the team will likely be without when the next season rolls around.Shifting gears, the guys continued with the Darnell Nurse conversation with a look at what trading him might even look like. His contract is obviously a massive part of the story when it comes to moving him, but that shouldn't suggest that Nurse carries zero value on the trade market. But what kind of trade should Oilers fans even expect? From there, the boys spoke about the never-ending coaching drama that's raging on after news broke earlier in the week that the team is interested in Mike Babcock. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, Ask the Idiots questions, and Hot and Colder Performers to wrap up the week. The guys also discussed the Stanley Cup Final and how the Carolina Hurricanes have a chance to close things out in Game 6 on Sunday night. They also discussed the NBA Finals and how the Knicks' comeback wins have been wild to watch. Speaking of wild to watch, seeing Knicks fans beating up Spurs fans just for wearing team merch ranks right up there for being nuts.
In this episode of The Huddle Breakdown Extra Time, host Martin Murphy, James, and Alan dive into the controversial "white smoke" at Paradise following Martin O'Neill's return as manager. The team pulls no punches regarding the Celtic board's rumored "nickel-and-diming" over backroom staff contracts for Shaun Maloney and Fotheringham, exposing a dated billionaire mentality that threatens to derail summer transfer window recruitment. Shifting focus to the upcoming FIFA World Cup, the panel dissects crucial IFAB law changes—including strict new five-second limits on throw-ins, one-minute power-play penalties for slow substitutions, and expanded VAR capabilities—and analyzes how these tempo-boosting shifts will directly impact Celtic's domestic and European campaigns. Finally, the guys break down five years of empirical Scottish referee data from the "Yorkshire Whistler" and offer their expert, unfiltered predictions on World Cup favorites, dark horses like Japan and Ecuador, and the political circus surrounding the tournament.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we're diving into a series of remarkable updates that highlight the dynamic evolution of drug development, regulatory landscapes, and industry strategies. Takeda has made waves with its TYK2 inhibitor, Zasocitinib, which recently outperformed Bristol Myers Squibb's Sotyktu in a pivotal Phase 3 trial for plaque psoriasis. This trial is particularly noteworthy as it involves TYK2 inhibitors, a class of drugs targeting tyrosine kinase 2 to modulate immune responses. The success of Zasocitinib not only strengthens Takeda's competitive position but also underscores the potential of these inhibitors in treating autoimmune conditions like psoriasis. As we look forward to its market launch next year, this development represents a significant stride in the realm of targeted therapies aimed at complex diseases. Shifting gears to regulatory advancements, Johnson & Johnson's Darzalex (daratumumab) has received endorsement from NICE for its quadruplet therapy in newly diagnosed transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma cases. This approval is based on favorable Phase 3 trial results and highlights the therapeutic potential of targeting CD38 on myeloma cells. This marks a crucial step in offering potent treatment options to patients who cannot undergo transplants, emphasizing the growing importance of combination therapies in oncology. In another significant development, Johnson & Johnson is expanding its rare disease portfolio with promising Phase 2/3 trial data for Imaavy. Poised to become the first approved treatment for warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia, this advancement highlights the industry's pivot towards addressing rare diseases with limited treatment options. In India, AstraZeneca has secured CDSCO approval for Enhertu (trastuzumab deruxtecan) combined with pertuzumab as a first-line treatment for HER2-positive unresectable or metastatic breast cancer. This approval signifies a milestone in HER2-targeted therapies, spotlighting the pivotal role of antibody-drug conjugates that deliver cytotoxic agents directly to cancer cells, enhancing efficacy while minimizing systemic exposure. Moving on to business developments, Servier's partnership with N-Lorem Foundation to develop antisense oligonucleotide therapies for rare neurological disorders reflects the industry's increasing focus on precision medicine. This collaboration underscores the burgeoning interest in nucleic acid-based therapies aimed at addressing genetic disorders lacking effective treatments. On the financial front, Kardigan's planned $320 million IPO signals robust confidence in advancing cardiovascular pipeline assets. This move highlights Kardigan's commitment to tackling substantial unmet needs in cardiovascular diseases—an area still rife with challenges despite existing therapies. From a regulatory perspective, China's update of its Good Clinical Practice guidelines aims to streamline clinical trial processes, fostering biotech innovation. This change is expected to enhance drug development efficiency and attract global biotech investments to China's rapidly growing pharmaceutical market. Meanwhile, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla has raised concerns about Germany's healthcare reform plans, warning that they might deter future investments. His comments underscore the delicate balance between cost containment policies and maintaining an environment conducive to pharmaceutical innovation. Additionally, Novo Nordisk's CEO Mike Doustdar expressed optimism about the company's strategic focus on market positioning through innovation and efficiency improvements. This aligns with broader industry trends where large pharma companies strive to maintain leadership roles amid fierce competition. Eli Lilly's sponsorship of short films premiered at Tribeca Festival illustrates an industry-wide trend toward patient-centric approaches and authentic portrayals of people with diseases onscreen. Such efforts aim to enhance communication strategies that resonate with diverse audiences. Furthermore, transformative technologies like cell and gene therapies are gradually moving towards mainstream clinical adoption. This transition necessitates zero-tolerance logistics to ensure these complex therapies reach patients safely and effectively—a paradigm shift offering potential cures but also posing logistical challenges. Finally, industry events such as ASCO continue to spotlight cutting-edge research developments in oncology. Such conferences are pivotal in advancing treatment paradigms and fostering collaborations that drive innovation across the sector. These updates reflect a period marked by groundbreaking scientific advances and strategic initiatives poised to reshape patient care and global healthcare solutions. As companies navigate these complexities while addressing regulatory and economic challenges, maintaining a focus on innovation will be key in charting future growth trajectories within the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors.Support the show

Threats against public officials have become much, much more common. This includes everyone from the president of the United States to members of Congress, to state and local officials, and even civil servants like local librarians. Threats have always been a part of United States history, often manifesting in times of political turmoil or cultural tension. The internet age opened a new chapter in the U.S. making threats easier to make and harder to trace and prosecute. So what exactly is the standard for defining a criminal threat? How has it changed? And how do we balance safety and free speech in a world where the two seem increasingly at odds? On this episode of Throughline, the shifting line between protected speech and true threats.Guests:David L.

Host Tara addresses the intense fallout surrounding a horrific, widely shared video of an attack in Belfast, Northern Ireland. She calls out UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Australian media for targeting Elon Musk over the viral footage rather than confronting underlying immigration flaws. Tara exposes Starmer's newly proposed tech crackdowns, including a mandatory digital ID to access the internet and aggressive software scans of citizens' personal devices. Shifting to US politics, she breaks down a new executive order from President Trump targeting the US Postal Service, designed to block the transport of mass-mailed absentee ballots unless a state provides full transparency of its internal voter rolls. > Belfast riots, Elon Musk censorship, Keir Starmer digital ID, Online Safety Act, UK surveillance laws, mass-mail ballots, Trump executive order, independent political commentary
Host Tara breaks down a fast-moving, high-stakes broadcast. She opens with President Trump's sudden Truth Social announcement that the US military is moving to seize control of Iran's vital Kharg Island energy infrastructure. Tara and co-host Lee analyze why portions of Iran's defense grids were strategically left intact and challenge mainstream narratives regarding who truly controls the Strait of Hormuz. Shifting across the Atlantic, the show targets UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer for using a viral, horrific knife attack video filmed in Belfast to justify a chilling digital clampdown. Tara exposes the UK's draft surveillance legislation—which would force tech companies to scan private user data directly on their devices—and asks what this creeping "social credit hardware" means for the future of global free speech. > Kharg Island military operations, Trump foreign policy, Strait of Hormuz conflict, Belfast speech crisis, Keir Starmer online safety act, private device surveillance, digital ID mandates, campaign security, independent political commentary

The latest Gallup poll shows 9% of U.S. adults now identify as LGBTQ, which is almost triple the 3.7% recorded in 2014. But here's what the same poll also shows: public support for homosexuality has dropped from 71% to 65% in just two to three years, with Republican support cratering from 55% to 37%. Is the pride phenomenon finally running out of steam? Kevin is joined by Sam Rust to discuss this shift today.
Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded and edited, and it's ready to help you wrap up the week. On today's podcast, the guys discussed the Darnell Nurse trade request, the Mike Babcock rumours, and much more.The guys kicked off this week's episode of Real Life with a conversation about the Darnell Nurse trade request that just came down today, and how it seems like we're walking toward the end of an era in Edmonton. While there's little doubt that Nurse's contract became a problem, the reality is that he was also a very good Oiler for a very long time. Despite the contract being a sticking point, the reality is that Nurse is a guy who gave his all to the city and the franchise.Shifting gears, the boys discussed the Mike Babcock rumours that have kicked up over the last week, and how just hearing his name was enough to trigger the entire fanbase. While there are a handful of Oilers fans who legitimately think this could work, the vast majority of them hate the idea to their core. That led the boys to discuss which guys would be better options for the Oilers, and whether they would even be interested in getting out of their own way.Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast on the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with a breakdown of the Knicks' Game 4 win, New Yorkers embracing the moment, and recapped Tyler's trip down to Vegas, what it was like being at the Cup Final when you don't care. Even with the lack of Oilers games, it's always remarkable to see how much news can happen in Edmonton even though the team hasn't been on the ice in months. Hosted on Acast.

Emma Fitts is a Ōtautahi-based Interdisciplinary artist working amongst sculpture, photography, and textile installation. Drawing from an expanded painting practice in which the canvas is reimagined as an active material in itself, creating its own imagery and form while also behaving as its own support structure. Resulting in these immersive material rich spaces that contemplate architecture, textiles, queer history, feminism and memory. In her current exhibition at Melanie Roger Gallery, Emerald Pools Fitts explores the notions of memory through the revisitation of a work first exhibited in the courtyard at Objectspace (2022) as lapping at your door, and later reconfigured for the installation of The Air like a stone presented at The Physics Room (2023). The work then undertook another reconfiguration and is now back here in Tāmak at Melanie Roger Gallery, presented as Emerald Pools. Through each of its reconfigurations the work has built up this rich history, holding residue of its past lives and allowing the works memories of reconfiguration, weather exposure, and re-installation to become embedded within the work itself. Alongside the memory of the work's various iterations the work also holds the history of its own making process at its forefront. With Fitts purposefully exposing the works methods of construction through raw seams, and canvas folds. Shifting the viewers attention to not only the work itself but also the wider histories a work might hold. The show becomes a site of multiplicity, holding the work's accumulative history of its prior contexts, configurations, and surrounding dialogues. Maya caught up with Emma about the show and her overall practice.
About 5 percent of the population is earning the minimum wage, but a lot of us still aren't earning a whole lot more. So, why aren't wages more generally shifting higher? Money correspondent Susan Edmunds spoke to John Campbell.
Allie reacts to breaking news from the Southern Baptist Convention, which passed an amendment defining pastoral roles strictly for males. Shifting gears, the sin of partiality is turning murderers into victims and white victims into villains. Allie covers the Karmelo Anthony murder trial, as the 19-year-old faces charges for stabbing Austin Metcalf to death at a 2025 Frisco, Texas, track meet, yet crowds chant for his freedom, and media narratives racialize the case despite the evidence. Conversely, in the U.K., bodycam footage from the Henry Nowak stabbing reveals police handcuffing the dying 18-year-old victim while showing leniency toward his Sikh killer, highlighting dangerous double standards. This video examines how overcorrections on racism have distorted justice in both America and Britain, echoing the racial divisions of the O.J. Simpson trial. What does the Bible say about such partiality? Also, the Department of War narrows down religious affiliations recognized by the Chaplain Corps, but Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) take issue with the fact that LDS was not listed as a Christian denomination. Do you have a question for Allie? Leave a voicemail at 844-755-5252.

What if everything we've been taught about mourning is completely archaic? In this deeply emotional and beautifully raw episode, Heather sits down with her lifelong friend, Kate Doerge—a certified grief coach, motivational speaker, author, and nonprofit founder. After tragically losing her 16-year-old daughter, Penny, to Neurofibromatosis (NF1) in 2022, Kate and her family made a radical choice: they chose to feed their faith, starve their fear, and throw out the traditional mold of dark, sorrowful mourning. Instead, they chose to flood their lives with love, light, and celebration. In this episode, Heather and Kate dive deep into: Redefining Grief: Why choosing joy after a devastating loss isn't a betrayal to your loved one—it's the ultimate tribute. The Story of Penny's Flight: How Penny lived more in her 16 years than most do in a hundred, and how her legacy is fueling a revolution to find a cure for NF. Shifting the Rhetoric: Better ways to show up for grieving friends instead of just saying "I'm so sorry" or "I can't imagine." Lifespan vs. Wingspan: Embracing the truth that some souls are meant to come into this world fast and furious, leaving an impact that transcends time. "We are all going to hit the mat in life. It's all about how we decide to get back up." Grab a box of tissues, lean into your intuition, and join Heather and Kate for a groundbreaking conversation on navigating Earth University, finding your flow through the darkest waters, and learning how to love our people differently once they've passed to the other side. Kate's new book, Reimagining Grief: Finding a New Path to Healing, Strength, and Joy After Loss, is available everywhere books and audiobooks are sold.

The unexpected blowout in the May jobs report just sent shockwaves through the financial markets, adding 172,000 jobs and more than doubling Wall Street's expectations. This undeniable economic strength severely disrupted the Federal Reserve rate cut narrative, causing treasury yields to spike and sparking an immediate repricing across yield-sensitive assets like tech stocks, real estate, and cryptocurrency.In the crypto sector, the liquidation cascade was intensified when MicroStrategy's Michael Saylor sold 32 Bitcoin, cracking his long-standing narrative to never sell and leading to a massive psychology shift among investors. Despite $1.7 billion in crypto value being wiped out in a single day and prediction markets shifting toward a potential rate hike this year, long-term fundamentals remain strong for investors who can navigate the volatility and capitalize on the capital rotation into AI infrastructure.Key Topics DiscussedImpact of the May jobs report on financial markets and stock valuationsFederal Reserve interest rate predictions and surging treasury bond yieldsMichael Saylor's unexpected Bitcoin sale and the resulting crypto psychology shiftBroadcom's AI chip guidance and the subsequent tech stock pullbackThe direct correlation between high treasury yields and asset repricingCapital rotation from cryptocurrency assets into AI infrastructureMassive institutional unrealized losses in Bitcoin and EthereumPrivate debt funds and utilizing asset-backed lending strategiesKey TakeawaysStrong economic data can negatively impact asset prices by eliminating the immediate justification for Federal Reserve rate cuts.The 10-year Treasury yield spiking above 4.5% instantly changes the economics of real estate deals and pushes out expected refinancing windows.MicroStrategy's unprecedented sale of 32 Bitcoin proved that narrative shifts can trigger rapid liquidation cascades in volatile markets.Market pullbacks are healthy corrections that offer long-term investors valuable buying opportunities at discounted asset valuations.Shifting investment strategy toward first-position, asset-backed lending can provide crucial downside protection during periods of market turbulence.Connect & Take Action:Wealth Intelligence Brief: Text "WIB" to 844-447-1555 to get Matty's free macro data, real estate intel, and crypto signals delivered to your inbox 3 times a week.Imagos Income Fund: Text "INCOME" or "DEALS" to 844-447-1555 to learn more about Matty A's private debt fund targeting 10% fixed returns paid out monthly.
Nobody sent you a memo. But the baseline for what "good" looks like in your business quietly shifted and it happened fast. Clients who were happy with a recap email now expect a structured summary with action items within 24 hours. Turnaround times that felt reasonable 18 months ago are starting to feel slow. This isn't because your clients got harder. It's because AI changed the reference point for everyone. And the obvious response, automate everything, is exactly the wrong move. In this solo episode, George breaks down what's actually happening as AI reshapes client expectations across service businesses, coaching, consulting, and beyond. He shares where the shift is showing up, the trap most entrepreneurs fall into, and the three questions every business owner needs to sit with right now. What You'll Learn In This Episode: The three ways AI is shifting client expectations right now: speed, structure, and personalization Why over-automating is the trap and how to spot if you've already fallen into it How George uses AI tools (Read AI, Plod, Claude) to free up capacity without losing humanity The difference between using AI to replace relationships vs. using it to protect them Three diagnostic questions to audit your delivery, your AI use, and your human presence Why the most intentionally human business, not the most automated, wins in this market Key Takeaways: ✔️The floor of what "good" looks like in business has moved. If your delivery standards haven't been revisited in 18 months, they're worth a hard look. ✔️Clients aren't being unreasonable. Their frame of reference has changed because AI changed it, whether they're using the tools themselves or just experiencing them through others. ✔️The trap: hearing "AI is changing expectations" and immediately thinking "I need to automate more." That instinct, unchecked, trades the one thing your business is built on, relationship. ✔️AI should free up your capacity so you can be more human, not less. Use it for structure, summaries, and administration. Protect the moments that require you. ✔️If your client can feel the AI, if something feels off, less personal, less invested, you have a hole in the bottom of your bucket. ✔️Efficiency is not the goal. A better client experience is the goal. Sometimes those are the same. Sometimes they're drastically different. ✔️The market is not going back. Expectations will keep moving. The businesses that win are the ones that stay intentionally human while letting AI handle the repeatable work underneath them. ✔️You don't have the business you want because you haven't become the person to run it. No AI tool changes that. The human part will always be the most important part.
