Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the escalating tensions in Chicago and Portland as President Trump federalizes the National Guard and local leaders push back. They discuss Illinois Governor JB Pritzker's sharp rebuke of Trump's actions, Pam Bondi's inflammatory comments about Portland officials, and how the president's militarization strategy could intimidate voters ahead of the midterms. Kander and Gupta also react to a bizarre Fox News segment featuring Stephen Miller and a troubling Trump clip on Vietnam and Afghanistan, before examining new reporting on the administration's legally dubious “narco-terrorist” operations in Venezuela. Plus, they debate Democratic strategy on the government shutdown, from stalled negotiations to uncertainty over back pay for federal workers, and unpack Pam Bondi's disastrous Senate testimony as she clashes with Adam Schiff and other lawmakers.

“Love Is Blind” Denver continues to give off the most unsettling vibes possible. The couples finish up their honeymoons, head back to the Mile High City and make it as clear as possible how deep their disdain for their partners goes. Against all odds, the least cursed couple seems to be Jordan – a man who downs chicken breast and Crystal Light smoothies each morning – and Normal-Amount-of-Sparkle Megan. Everything comes to a head at the western-themed wider pod mixer where conflicts explode and no one likes Nick.

Episode 279 of The Business Development Podcast, The 10 Unspoken Laws of Trust, dives deep into the unseen foundation behind every successful relationship, deal, and opportunity: trust. Kelly explores how trust shapes human behavior, why it's not automatic despite being essential to society, and the ten unspoken laws that quietly govern how we build and maintain it. From honesty and reciprocity to fairness, accountability, and transparency, this episode uncovers the hidden social and biological frameworks that make trust the cornerstone of business and life.In the second half, Kelly breaks down how to intentionally build trust in business development using five powerful steps rooted in human psychology. He explains how safety, consistency, competence, empathy, and follow-through work together to calm the brain's natural defense system and open the door to real connection. The result is a masterclass on transforming reliability into loyalty — and why, in a world full of noise, predictability and authenticity are the ultimate business advantage.Key Takeaways: 1. Trust is the silent force that drives every deal, relationship, and opportunity in business development—it's the real currency behind every transaction.2. Society relies on trust to function, but it's not automatic because our biology evolved to protect us before it connects us.3. Words and promises form the foundation of trust; when they're broken, the entire system of communication and reliability collapses.4. Fairness, accountability, and reciprocity are natural laws of trust that make cooperation possible and keep relationships stable.5. Predictability is the cornerstone of trust—when people know what to expect, their fear response quiets and loyalty forms.6. Transparency builds safety; secrecy breeds suspicion. Sharing your process and progress openly earns long-term confidence.7. Reputation is trust's shortcut—each fulfilled promise becomes proof of credibility and a signal to others that you're dependable.8. Trust isn't built on perfection, but on consistency; reliability over time is what transforms confidence into loyalty.9. To earn trust faster, focus on emotional safety, consistency, competence, empathy, and follow-through in every interaction.10. The goal of business development isn't to persuade—it's to help the human nervous system decide, “I'm safe with you,” because that's when opportunity. We're proud to be finalists in the 2025 Signal Awards — the only Canadian

Episode 686: Neal and Toby dive into the massive multibillion-dollar deal between OpenAI and AMD. Then, France's Prime Minister resigns just after 27 days of taking over, causing a political earthquake and financial markets trembling. Also, Deloitte has to refund the Australian government after a report made with AI is riddled with errors. Meanwhile, Toby looks into why craft beer is failing to regain its footing as sales continue to struggle. Finally, flights across the US experience delays due to a shortage of air traffic staff, thanks to the government shutdown. And a major bank merger creates the 9th largest bank in the US.

The RH Factor's Hard Groove might sound uncontroversial to modern ears, but in the early 2000s it was revolutionary. With this record, Roy Hargrove broke away from the straight-ahead jazz revival of the Young Lions era and created something entirely new. Hard Groove blended Roy's trumpet with the voices of R&B and soul heavyweights like D'Angelo, Erykah Badu, and Common, artists whose platinum-selling albums (Voodoo, Mama's Gun, Like Water for Chocolate) already featured Roy's melodic horn playing and orchestral arrangements.With Hard Groove, Roy flipped the script: instead of lending his sound to the hip hop and neo-soul world, he invited those artists into a jazz record. The result was a landmark project that blurred genres and redefined what jazz could be in the 21st century.You'll Hear It has been nominated for a Listener's Choice award for Best Music Podcast at the Signal Awards.

Episode 278 of The Business Development Podcast dives into the explosive rise of Startup TNT with co-founder Tim Lynn, a financial strategist and serial entrepreneur who has helped reshape Western Canada's startup ecosystem. Tim shares his journey from investment banking to building a community-driven angel investing platform that has mobilized millions in capital, empowered new investors, and opened doors for founders across the Prairies. With a unique blend of expertise as a CPA, CFA, and CBV, Tim explains how Startup TNT is lowering barriers to entry for angel investing and creating real momentum for entrepreneurs.In this conversation, Tim breaks down the realities of angel investing — why most startups fail, how to build a diversified portfolio, and why collaboration beats going it alone. He shares powerful lessons from his own entrepreneurial journey, the challenges of growing companies in Alberta, and the opportunities that make Western Canada a force on the global stage. Packed with insights, practical wisdom, and explosive energy, this episode is a must-listen for anyone passionate about startups, investing, and the future of entrepreneurship in Canada.Key Takeaways: 1. Most startups fail — 80–90% don't make it, which is why diversification is critical in angel investing.2. A winning portfolio isn't about one bet, it's about 20–40 “shots on goal” to increase the odds of success.3. Angel investing doesn't have to mean $100K+ cheques — pooling $5–10K investments makes it accessible to more people.4. Collaboration beats isolation: Startup TNT thrives by bringing investors, founders, and communities together.5. Investors shouldn't impose their own vision — success comes from backing founders who see the future clearly.6. The role of investors is to champion companies — providing introductions, advice, and resources when asked, not dictating.7. Great companies are built on strong teams — weak team dynamics can derail even the best products.8. Distribution and sales often matter more than the product itself; the best idea isn't enough without reach.9. Alberta and Western Canada have world-class talent and innovation, but need more business and sales expertise to scale.10. Early mistakes and failures are part of the process — both founders and investors grow by “bumping into walls” and learning.

Another week, another lackluster performance from Mel. This week, the Golden ladies do some very cathartic standup comedy – and really cut Mel down to size. Then, Debbie gets a romantic culinary one-on-one date, during which she gets to do her favorite thing: learn when to put the cheese in the omelette. Mel engages in some serious conversations with several of his frontrunners about their romantic histories and their growing feelings, but it's mostly the ladies talking. Will Mel learn to loosen up, get vulnerable, and show us all some emotions? Not this week!

In this episode, Imara talks with Brazilian actress, writer, and producer Darwin Del Fabro about her career and new solo play Lili/Darwin.

The dreaded second spot in the Grand Final lineup has a lot of lore surrounding it, spoken only in hushed tones by those that fear its power.

Episode 323 Temperatures in Antarctica have soared by over 35°C. Scientists are concerned about how quickly things are changing on the continent as these warmer temperatures impact the polar vortex. Coupled with record lows in sea ice cover over the last decade, this could be a sign that Antarctic weather patterns have shifted permanently. What's driving this change - and what happens if we have reached a tipping point of no return? Many mammals, including cats, can pivot their ears to focus on a particular sound. But our ears aren't quite so flexible. But now it appears that a similar process happens inside our brain - ‘swivelling' to focus on sounds from different directions. This has only recently been discovered thanks to new portable EEG equipment, as the process only happens when we're moving. This finding may help us better understand how movement changes the brain - and could even help improve hearing aids.  Why do women tend to live longer than men? It could have something to do with the very chromosomes that determine biological sex. By looking at birds, whose sex chromosomes differ from those of mammals, researchers have discovered an intriguing hint at what's going on. But does their new hypothesis hold up? Alongside all the emerging science, Rowan shares his own theory. And the team discusses the disappearance of the Y chromosome - and what that really means for men. Chapters: (00:00) Intro (01:04) Emergency in Antarctica (10:46) How movement changes the brain (19:34) Why women live longer than men Hosted by Rowan Hooper and Penny Sarchet, with guests Madeleine Cuff, Edward Doddridge, Caroline Williams and Sam Wong.

In Episode 277 of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy takes you inside a true David vs. Goliath battle as he fights for the 2025 Signal Awards in the Business category. As the only Canadian and the only independent finalist up against billion dollar networks like Wondery, iHeart, and Amazon, Kelly reveals how underdogs can rally support and compete with giants. He shares the exact playbook he is using: creating awareness through posts, driving action with direct outreach, scaling with email, amplifying through media, and most importantly trusting community to carry the fight. Along the way you will learn the pitfalls to avoid, the importance of gratitude, and why clarity and simplicity turn support into real action.Now Kelly needs his community more than ever. With just one week left to vote, your support will decide the outcome. It takes only ten seconds to cast your vote, and every share amplifies the fight. If this podcast has ever inspired you, taught you, or helped you move the needle in your business, this is the moment to give back. Vote now for The Business Development Podcast in the Business category of the Signal Awards at vote.signalaward.com. Voting is open until October 9th. Vote and share to create a tidal wave of support and help David defeat a giant.Key Takeaways: 1. Awareness is only the first step — posts create visibility but they don't guarantee action.2. Direct outreach drives results — personal messages cut through the noise and spark real movement.3. Clarity matters — a single link and simple instructions remove friction and boost support.4. Equip your community — give them shareable assets, captions, and graphics so helping you is easy.5. Media amplifies your story — but only if you frame it with a compelling narrative worth telling.6. Gratitude fuels momentum — thank people personally and publicly to deepen connection and trust.7. Don't confuse numbers with commitment — likes and comments are not the same as votes or sales.8. Respect boundaries — pushing too hard or spamming can damage relationships you've worked to build.9. At some point you must let go — after doing everything in your power, trust your community to carry it forward.10. Underdogs win with people, not budgets — community is the greatest differentiator against giants.

This summer, one singular artist could be heard everywhere from the new Cardi B album to the TikTok charts: Janet Jackson. The incomparable Queen of Pop has had her fingerprints all over pop music for the past few months, and it's never been more apparent than on Doja Cat's “Jealous Type.” The lead single from Doja's new album Vie has all the hallmarks of the Janet Jackson sound, from breathy and percussive vocals to nods to iconic production from Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. This episode of Switched on Pop, we go on a journey guided by Janet, and discover the implicit connections to Doja Cat – the so-called “queen of pop-rap” – in the process.
