In the latest episode of the Whole Whale Podcast, hosts George and Nick reflect on the transformative themes that shaped the nonprofit sector in 2025. With a focus on AI's impact, they explore how answer engine optimization (AEO) has redefined nonprofit discovery and engagement. AI's rapid adoption has led to decreased organic traffic for nonprofits, necessitating strategic pivots in content and donor engagement. George highlights a significant increase in AI-generated content, with Whole Whale producing nearly a million words daily. This shift underscores the need for nonprofits to establish internal AI policies and balance AI use with human oversight to maintain ethical standards and foster innovation. Nick introduces the "crawl, walk, run" framework, guiding nonprofits in adopting AI responsibly. He emphasizes the importance of maintaining human expertise and authority in an AI-saturated world, urging organizations to focus on quality over quantity in content creation. The episode also revisits key rants from 2025, including Microsoft's controversial changes to its nonprofit grant program and GoFundMe's unauthorized creation of shadow donation pages for nonprofits. These challenges highlight the importance of maintaining autonomy and control over nonprofit branding and fundraising. Looking ahead to 2026, George and Nick advise nonprofits to prioritize strategic use of AI, leveraging high-quality intelligence tokens to amplify impact while avoiding the pitfalls of AI-generated "slop." They stress the importance of creating original, authoritative content that reflects an organization's mission and expertise. As they close the episode, George and Nick express optimism for 2026, anticipating renewed energy and opportunities for nonprofits amidst upcoming midterms and sector transformations.
Ransomware payments may be falling, but attackers are not retreating—they are shifting their focus upstream to hypervisors, where a single compromise can undo years of layered security investment. This change fundamentally alters the risk equation for MSPs whose architectures emphasize shared infrastructure and efficiency. Lower payments reflect reduced victim capacity, not reduced attacker effectiveness, forcing adversaries to increase the impact of each successful breach. Recovery speed, architectural resilience, and catastrophic-failure planning now matter more than detection narratives.At the same time, regulators are tightening expectations around AI safety while modernization funding stalls. State attorneys general are warning major AI vendors about harmful outcomes involving minors, even as Congress allows critical federal IT modernization funding to lapse. This leaves implementers operating in environments where AI is treated as production infrastructure but lacks the controls, funding, and policy clarity required to manage risk. In these conditions, responsibility concentrates on service providers without corresponding authority.Concerns over AI transparency deepen as OpenAI's shift to a for-profit model triggers internal resignations and allegations of suppressed economic impact research. When AI vendors control both platforms and narratives, ecosystem participants lose access to inconvenient truths about displacement, quality degradation, and operational disruption. MSPs experience these impacts directly, often after automation decisions have already reshaped staffing, workflows, and customer expectations.Security vendors are responding by introducing AI governance and control-layer tools, but carefully stopping short of owning outcomes. From AI detection and response to bundled copilots, zero-trust packages, and expanded vulnerability scanning, the message is consistency and experimentation—not accountability. As AI systems move from passive tools to active decision-makers, governance becomes an ongoing service rather than a product feature. MSPs that fail to price, document, and limit decision risk will inherit liabilities they cannot automate away. Four things to know today 00:00 Ransomware Payments Fall 33% as Attacks Persist and Shift Toward Hypervisors04:33 State Attorneys General Warn OpenAI, Microsoft, and Apple on AI Child Safety as Federal IT Modernization Funding Stalls08:24 Former OpenAI Employees Raise Transparency Concerns as Economic Impact Research Is Curtailed10:51 CrowdStrike, Microsoft, Vectra, WatchGuard, and LevelBlue Push AI Security Controls Without Owning Outcomes This is the Business of Tech.

November's numbers reveal a market finding a new rhythm—more homes hitting the market, buyers still moving, days on market tightening, and prices holding steady despite shifting affordability.

Fewer surprises, clearer patterns, and just enough momentum to keep things interesting.

Welcome to Wrestling Tonight, with your hosts Acefield Retro and Chad. We open Episode 155 with the defining image of the week: Gunther standing tall as John Cena taps out in the final match of his WWE career. What should have been a shared emotional release instead became a revealing moment about WWE's creative posture, as Saturday Night's Main Event exposed the company's increasingly adversarial relationship with its audience. The result wasn't the issue. Gunther is already a made man, and his credibility never hinged on retiring Cena. The friction came from the framing. The show was presented as a celebration, yet paced like Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. By the time Cena escaped the sleeper once and Gunther reapplied it, the atmosphere didn't crest into catharsis. It stalled. That disconnect sharpened during the post-match ceremony. WWE rushed into pageantry — roster surrounding the ring, titles presented, tribute video cued — without letting the building settle. The reaction made clear the audience understood exactly what kind of ending they'd been handed. We break down why the finish felt less organic than corrective, and contrast it with Sting's retirement in AEW, which showed how patience and alignment can create a farewell that feels complete. From there, we pivot to AEW's Continental Classic, where Dynamite delivered real movement. "Speedball" Mike Bailey stunned Kyle Fletcher, Kazuchika Okada handled Jack Perry, and Claudio Castagnoli and Konosuke Takeshita fought to a punishing time-limit draw that reinforced the Classic as AEW's most sports-driven concept. We then hit an Observer-style business and schedule corner, breaking down AEW's crowded December — early U.K. Collision, a three-hour Manchester Dynamite with $1 million at stake, a tight Worlds End promotional window — before flipping to WWE's business side: Royal Rumble demand, archive strategy, NXT PLE timing, and mid-December pre-taping. We close with a look ahead at a loaded week across the industry, from Holiday Bash and the Continental Classic to Impact's cage chaos, SmackDown's continued Cena fallout, NXT's road to New Year's Evil, and a packed runway toward Worlds End, Wrestle Kingdom, the Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, and WrestleMania 42. This is Episode 155 of Wrestling Tonight — where the moments matter, the context counts, and the conversation goes deeper than the finish

Former Senator John Lamping discusses national and local politics, criticizing Republicans for avoiding aggressive strategies in redistricting battles and reflecting on the Indiana and Missouri examples. He highlights the strategic importance of gerrymandering, filibuster dynamics, and the consequences of political caution. On a local level, Lamping examines St. Louis County's $81 million budget deficit, attributing it to population shifts, economic decline, and one-party dominance. He also notes regional growth trends in St. Charles and Chesterfield counties, connecting infrastructure projects to broader demographic and economic changes, and emphasizes the long-term implications for local governance and business.

The expiration of EV tax credits pulled sales into Q3, leading to a sharp Q4 drop.

Affordability remains the primary concern for consumers, making vehicles under $30,000 highly desirable in the current market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

In this episode, we bid farewell to 2025 with a year-in-review analysis of the biggest news, changes, and trends in rewards, credit cards, and award travel over the last 12 months. This episode is part one of a two-part year-in-review series, and I'm joined by Kelly, the Points and Miles Doc, to break down the biggest changes, surprises, and shakeups in the points and award travel world over the last year. In this first half of the conversation, we focus on the biggest wins and disappointments of the year—from credit card issuers that made significant changes to new programs that expanded what's possible with points. We talk through how the landscape has shifted, why earning and redeeming points feels more complex than it used to, and how those changes showed up across credit cards, transferable points currencies, and airline loyalty programs. This episode isn't about declaring whether 2025 was "good" or "bad." It's about understanding how the points and miles world is becoming more specific, more nuanced, and more complex—and what that means for how you participate in it moving forward. Be sure to tune in next week for Part Two, where we'll dive deeper into the trends we expect to shape 2026, along with our predictions and award travel wish lists for the year ahead.

Sometimes a single month can hold enough joy, loss, wonder, and meaning to rearrange the way you see your entire life. In this episode, I share three moments that arrived unexpectedly and changed me in ways I didn't anticipate. You'll hear about neighbors who taught me something about legacy, a newborn who altered my sense of what truly matters, and a friend whose final wish reminded me of the impact one life can have. It is a story of beginnings and endings, presence and absence, and the quiet space where both shape us. I rarely talk about my personal life at this depth, but this season held lessons too important to keep to myself. If you've ever had a stretch of time that left you different than it found you, this episode may feel familiar. And if you haven't, it may open your eyes to the shifts happening right now in your own life. Take a few minutes. Slow down. Join me for a story about what really matters. Quotes by Dr. Bray "The most extraordinary parts of our lives are never bought, scheduled, or wrapped—they are lived, shared, and loved." "Uncomplicated joy doesn't ask you to produce, achieve, or prove anything." "The bonds you feel standing in a driveway listening to family stories can outlast trips, summers, and even loss."
What if the biggest shift you could make in your sales conversations next year is not about learning something brand new, but about finally doing what you already know in a more intentional way. In this episode, Nikki Rausch explores three game changing adjustments entrepreneurs can implement in 2026 to create more confident, grounded, and ease filled sales conversations. If you've felt heavier pressure in your sales calls this past year or found yourself stumbling over your words, overthinking, or feeling shaky when the stakes are high, this episode gives you the practical reset you need. Nikki begins by tackling the first and most foundational shift: asking the right questions. Not just more questions, and not generic ones, but the strategic questions that build safety, credibility, and momentum. She explains how well crafted questions act as your consultation roadmap, keeping the conversation on track while showing your buyer they're in capable hands. Without this structure, you risk rambling, oversharing, coaching instead of selling, or losing the lead entirely. Nikki shares how a consultation map elevates your professionalism, shortens your consult time, and positions you as the guide your client is looking for. She even discusses her new AI assisted offer that helps entrepreneurs create their question map step by step. The second shift is one that many sellers think they've mastered but often haven't: leading with benefits rather than features. Nikki breaks down why features alone don't sell and why the "so what" behind your offer needs to be clearly stated, not left for the client to interpret. She walks through how benefits speak directly to the outcomes your clients want and how articulating them increases your confidence as well as the buyer's. By sharing common mistakes she sees entrepreneurs make, and how just rewriting a few sentences can transform an offer's appeal, Nikki encourages listeners to revisit their sales pages and pitches with fresh eyes. Finally, Nikki highlights the third shift: practice. Real, out loud, low stakes practice. She explains why confidence isn't innate; it's built through repetition and muscle memory. Sales conversations feel wobbly for the same reason walking a narrow beam feels wobbly: your body and brain haven't rehearsed the movement enough. Through stories from strategy sessions and her new monthly practice groups in the Sales Maven Society, Nikki shows how practicing language, pre framing, and key transitions can radically shift your presence on sales calls. When your voice steadies, your energy follows, and your buyer feels it too. Whether you're new to sales or seasoned but stuck in a rut, these three shifts can change everything. Ask better questions. Speak in benefits. And practice until confidence is your default setting. Here's to 2026 being your most grounded and successful sales year ever. Nikki invites you to join the Sales Maven Society.

So many women in midlife say the same thing: "I feel heavier inside, and I don't know why." The truth is, hormonal shifts during perimenopause and menopause can profoundly affect your emotions — often in ways no one ever warned you about. In this compassionate episode of Tea & Truth, Lynne breaks down the real science behind the emotional weight of hormonal change, including how fluctuations in estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, and neurotransmitters influence your mood, stress tolerance, sleep, and overall emotional stability. We also explore the human experience — the overwhelm, the irritability, the tears that come out of nowhere, the feeling that small things suddenly feel big, and why midlife tends to amplify everything emotionally.

This week's masterclass was a hot mess — robot voice, wrong screen share, speaker notes exposed, the whole thing. And yet…it became the perfect metaphor for how most business owners run their companies every day: chaotic, reactive, and held together by a few heroic team members doing their best to keep it all from falling apart. In this episode, I unpack what REALLY happened, what it reveals about leadership and system gaps, and why Q5 is the most important window to reset your business before 2026. If you're burnt out, stuck in operations, frustrated with your team, or constantly cleaning up messes — this episode is a wake-up call. Not because of the tech failures, but because of the leadership patterns underneath them. Q5 is your chance to break those patterns and step into a new identity as a true CEO. Key Takeaways: The "robot voice" disaster and how it mirrors the chaos inside most small businesses Why your #2 (like my Lauren) is proof of what real ownership looks like — and why most teams don't have it The 5 core leadership shifts you must make before 2026 Why Q5 is the most valuable (and most ignored) planning window of the year The identity shift required to move from operator → proactive CEO How unclear systems and unclear leadership create 90% of your stress The cost of waiting until January to "fix things" — and why that keeps you stuck every year If you're done repeating the same painful patterns and want 2026 to look radically different, book a Business Reset Session. We'll diagnose your operational gaps, team challenges, leadership blind spots, and build the Q5 plan your business needs to stabilize and grow. Book at https://bulletproofbusinessgrowth.com/
