She uncovers the tragic shooting of National Guard soldiers in Washington, D.C., by an Afghan refugee, Minnesota's Somali welfare corruption scandals, Trump's vow to vet all immigrants, Silicon Valley wives bankrolling progressivism, and Tennessee's December 2 election between Republican Matt Van Epps and radical Aftyn Behn.

As the popularity of online prediction markets grows, correspondent Anderson Cooper sits down with Polymarket founder and CEO Shayne Coplan in his first network television interview. The 27-year-old newly minted billionaire talks about his platform, where users can bet on politics and pop culture, sports and finance, even war and peace, and how all that data can be used to forecast the future. After a three-year U.S. ban, Coplan explains how Polymarket works, and how the company finds itself poised to reenter the U.S. market with backing from Washington, Wall Street and Silicon Valley. America's next wave of scientific talent may come from Lambert High School, where students used CRISPR to develop a promising new way to detect and treat Lyme disease, which affects nearly half a million Americans each year. Correspondent Bill Whitaker meets these “CRISPR kids” as they take their breakthrough to iGEM—the global biotech Olympics in Paris—and face off against the world's new rising force in biotechnology: China. Barcelona's 18-year-old soccer phenom Lamine Yamal has captivated fans with his improvisation and flair. Already, he is considered a generational talent and an heir to the great Lionel Messi. Correspondent Jon Wertheim meets Lamine Yamal in his home country of Spain to talk about his rapid ascent ahead of next summer's World Cup in North America.

Journalist Gil Duran's newsletter “The Nerd Reich” documents the latest developments in anti-democracy extremism within Silicon Valley. These extreme views include calls for accelerationism: the idea that unregulated capitalism and unfettered technological advancement should accelerate as quickly as possible, in order to bring about a new world order. While this sounds conspiratorial, Duran says these views are promoted by some of the most influential voices in the tech sector. We'll talk about the political implications of billionaire tech moguls' actions in the Bay Area, the U.S. and the world — and how we can fight back.

This book names people who I knew or knew of in Silicon Valley. It is a reaction to the author's time at Kleiner Perkins Caulfield and Byers. He was part of the team that financed Google and co-founded Drugstore.com during the dot-com frenzy. He was actively involved with Jeff Bezos at Amazon. The prevailing wisdom was simple: raise as much capital as possible, scale at breakneck speed, and worry about profitability later. At the heart of the book is the Evergreen model, a philosophy of building companies that last “and last and last.” Whorton outlines the Evergreen 7Ps® framework, which includes:• Purpose: A mission beyond personal wealth creation.• Perseverance: Commitment to long-term endurance.• People First: Prioritizing employees, customers, and communities.• Profitability: Growth funded through cash flow, not endless rounds of dilution.• Private: Freedom from public market pressures.• Pacience: A deliberate pace, resisting the frenzy of blitzscaling.• Philosophy: A values-driven approach to leadershipReject the false binary. You don't have to choose between hypergrowth or irrelevance. Many founders feel pressured to pursue VC funding even when their business fundamentals don't align. Evergreen offers a viable third path.--------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

Luciano Benetton rose from poverty in postwar Italy to found a chain of 7,000 high street fashion stores and create some of the most controversial advertising campaigns in history, becoming a billionaire along the way. Journalist Zing Tsjeng and BBC business editor Simon Jack discover how it all started for Luciano Benetton with a yellow sweater knitted by his sister, on a journey that takes in Benito Mussolini, Dolce Vita, Formula One, and Princess Diana. But Benetton wasn't just about fashion; with photographer Oliviero Toscani, the entrepreneur launched a series of highly controversial ad campaigns that tackled race, religion, AIDS, and the death penalty, that made the fashion brand infamous. Good Bad Billionaire is the podcast that explores the lives of the super-rich and famous, tracking their wealth, philanthropy, business ethics and success. There are leaders who made their money in Silicon Valley, on Wall Street and in high street fashion. From iconic celebrities and CEOs to titans of technology, the podcast unravels billionaire stories of fortune, power, economics, ambition and moral responsibility to explore how they achieved financial success, before asking the audience to decide if they are good, bad, or just billionaires. Some of the people we've featured previously on Good Bad Billionaire include Tyler Perry, Evan Spiegel, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Henry Ford, LeBron James, Selena Gomez and Martha Stewart.

Bill Dafflon is Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Wondera.AI, an AI music company backed by leading Silicon Valley venture capital firms. Bill is currently an investor in WebX, the world's first Bitcoin Accumulation Company (BAC). Why you should listen WebX International Holdings Limited began its journey in manufacturing — transforming raw materials into value. Today, that same spirit of transformation drives the company towards a new frontier: computation power. Around the world, computation resources are abundant yet scattered — powerful, but often idle or misallocated. WebX saw an opportunity: to turn this fragmented infrastructure into a connected, efficient, and finance-enabled network. Evolving from a textile innovator into a computing-power pioneer, WebX builds the systems that convert energy and computation into digital value — redefining how infrastructure powers growth in the digital age. Backed by world-class partners across finance, technology, and blockchain, WebX connects global capital with computation power — unlocking transparent, sustainable, and enduring value creation. Digital asset treasury companies are booming, but WebX is taking a very different path. Instead of raising capital to buy and hold Bitcoin, the company accumulates BTC directly through operational revenue and targeted investments—feeding value back into the Bitcoin ecosystem over time. After securing an account with a regulated Hong Kong crypto trading provider, WebX recently completed its first Bitcoin purchase, fully funded from internal resources. The company's strategy addresses a major problem in the Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) sector. More than 100 publicly traded firms now hold Bitcoin and other digital assets, but most do so passively. Without income-generating operations tied to their treasury, traditional DATs rely heavily on external fundraising—often at inflated market prices—which dilutes shareholders and collapses in bear markets. WebX's active accumulation model avoids these pitfalls by using its own operating business to steadily buy BTC.

However, what he is factually doing is exactly what President Trump has demanded. Prime Minister Carney is saying he is restricting Steel and Aluminum imports from non-free trade agreement countries, and he is lowering the tonnage of Steel and Aluminum that will be permitted for import. His claim is that this approach will help drive up “domestic demand” for Canadian Steel and Aluminum, but that's ancillary to the real objective. President Trump has demanded Canada stop importing cheap steel and aluminum mostly from China; including manufactured component goods that are made with steel and aluminum (think autos). Canada would not stop, because they could not stop. Their manufacturing base, green energy and climate change economy, is more of a component assembly system now. So, President Trump hit Canada with a 35% tariff, and things got ugly. In June Trump raised the tariff to 50%. The back and forth has gone on all year. Carney now announces restrictions on imported steel and aluminum, as well as restrictions on imported derivative goods that come from steel and aluminum, in combination with a spending plan to bolster the Canadian steel and aluminum manufacturing base. This ends up shifting the Canadian industrial sector to making steel and aluminum products without Chinese import dependency.

DOGE Trump White House Unleashes Media Bias Tracker to Crush Fake News Narratives The Trump administration has launched a brand-new “Media Bias Tracker” directly on the White House website. Unveiled on Friday, this tool is designed to call out and document the endless stream of false, misleading, and biased stories peddled by outlets that have spent years attacking President Donald Trump and his agenda. According to the White House, the tracker serves as a “record of the media's false and misleading stories flagged by The White House.” The tracker highlights “offenses” from major news publications, including an “Offender Hall of Shame” and a leaderboard ranking the worst culprits in spreading misinformation. Described as “a race to the bottom,” this feature ranks outlets based on repeat offenses. Topping the Hall of Shame list is The Washington Post, followed by rebranded leftist mouthpieces like MSNBC (now MS NOW), CBS News, CNN, The New York Times, Politico, and The Wall Street Journal. In response to their top spot, a spokesperson for the Washington Post said, “The Washington Post is proud of its accurate, rigorous journalism.” The page also features a “Media Offender of the Week,” currently blasting outlets for exaggerating Trump's calls to hold Democrats accountable for their seditious behavior.

Her exact words (full clip attached): “I don't think many of the tech mafia wives realize… they were used to set the groundwork for what Klaus Schwab calls The Great Reset. Their money especially was being conscripted through a network of NGO advisors, Hollywood, Davos, and their own companies. A really small group of people… completely blind to how their groundwork is being used to enable these Great Reset policies.” Then she turns the knife inward: “These women find their meaning through philanthropic work. I really believed I was helping Black communities and indigenous communities rise up. But now the problems have gotten worse. Crime worse. Mental health worse. The whole model is broken. At the end of the day they always go: ‘But climate change.' Social justice + climate change — it gets progressive women 100% of the time.” She even says many now believe the biggest “climate change issues” are actually geoengineering issues.

Violence increases as AfD gains support. War/Peace roads. His chief opponent is Rixi Moncada, who says Fidel Castro is her idol. Normally, the smart people of Honduras, would reject her, and elect Tito Asfura, but the Communists are trying to trick the people by running a third Candidate, Salvador Nasralla. Nasralla is no friend of Freedom. A borderline Communist, he helped Xiomara Castro by running as her Vice President. He won, and helped Castro win. Then he resigned, and is now pretending to be an anti-Communist only for the purposes of splitting Asfura's vote. The people of Honduras must not be tricked again. The only real friend of Freedom in Honduras is Tito Asfura. Tito and I can work together to fight the Narcocommunists, and bring needed aid to the people of Honduras. I cannot work with Moncada and the Communists, and Nasralla is not a reliable partner for Freedom, and cannot be trusted. I hope the people of Honduras vote for Freedom and Democracy, and elect Tito Asfura, President! potential, of Honduras! Additionally, I will be granting a Full and Complete Pardon to Former President Juan Orlando Hernandez who has been, according to many people that I greatly respect, treated very harshly and unfairly. This cannot be allowed to happen, especially now, after Tito Asfura wins the Election, when Honduras will be on its way to Great Political and Financial Success.

Your authority, mine, and that of the scholars you cite sits on the same level: none. It is all gatekeeping dressed as expertise. The video urging people to ignore “illegal orders” made your intent clear. You stretch the term until it covers anything that suits your goal of weakening the security apparatus and pushing Trump out of office. People see that. They see you. That you all are walking free and making those posts trying to advance a color revolution is the ultimate proof that Trump is not an authoritarian… he is far too lenient. https://twitter.com/CynicalPublius/status/1994807665147744671?s=20 https://twitter.com/SecWar/status/1994552598142038358?s=20 intended to be “lethal, kinetic strikes.” The declared intent is to stop lethal drugs, destroy narco-boats, and kill the narco-terrorists who are poisoning the American people. Every trafficker we kill is affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization. The Biden administration preferred the kid gloves approach, allowing millions of people — including dangerous cartels and unvetted Afghans — to flood our communities with drugs and violence. The Trump administration has sealed the border and gone on offense against narco-terrorists. Biden coddled terrorists, we kill them. Our current operations in the Caribbean are lawful under both U.S. and international law, with all actions in compliance with the law of armed conflict—and approved by the best military and civilian lawyers, up and down the chain of command.

D) out of nowhere, the Seditious Six – which includes one presidential hopeful and one former IC member who had direct involvement in the original attempt to destroy Trump – delivers to social media a “don't give up the ship” video – a public service announcement to all personnel to refuse unlawful orders. *** the video was funded and produced a Soros funded NGO. E) Senator Slotkin, the former CIA ghoul, goes on the news and is very careful to state that she can't identify any unlawful orders that have been given. F) boom, the WaPo delivers the story claiming unlawful orders. G) Friday evening, everyone on the left hits social media – with paid amplification – about the unlawful orders. H) the Sunday shows will be filled with calls for war crimes charges, impeachments, and resignations. All a coincidence, right? None of it was coordinated, right?

Venezuela Issues Statement After President Trump Orders All Aircraft to Avoid Regime-Controlled Airspace In Venezuela's statement, the regime accused the United States of attempting to “intimidate Venezuela” and framed Trump's announcement as an attack on Latin America as a whole. The press release ignored every factual concern raised by U.S. intelligence, including increased military involvement in cocaine transport and the regime's long-standing partnership with the Cartel of the Suns. Today's outburst from the Maduro regime is another example of Venezuela deflecting blame while its role in regional crime expands. Meanwhile, President Trump's position is clear: protect international aviation, disrupt drug networks, and stop allowing a criminal regime to use its airspace as a staging ground.

Who do you think really armed the Venezuelan “gangs” that flooded swing states right before the election? Who flew the untraceable Gulfstreams full of product and kids out of Maturín and Maiquetía while Biden looked the other way? Same people who ran Iran-Contra, fast-forward 40 years. Trump isn't just closing airspace, he's cutting the oxygen to the deep-state money laundering superhighway that's been funding black sites, color revolutions, and child trafficking networks across the hemisphere.

Many are struggling with discernment, but the strategic reality is simple: Maduro hasn't controlled Venezuela for years. The deep state held the reins. Then the guardians caught him, flipped him and weaponized the façade of control against the deep state. They may publicly acknowledge it; they may bury it. But the aftermath will speak for itself. In the days immediately following his surrender or “death,” watch the information floodgates burst wide open…especially involving U.S. elections. The timing will be surgical. The disclosures will be coordinated. And the narrative collapse will be unmistakable. Zelensky’s Sacked Top Aide ‘Escapes’ To Front-Line To ‘Hide’ From Corruption Investigators Andriy Yermak, the man who until just over 24 hours ago was Zelensky’s right hand man and the president’s top most powerful aid as chief of staff, and Ukraine’s appointed chief negotiator with the US on the peace process, is going to the front lines, apparently to “fight”. After his home and offices were raided by Ukraine’s anti-corruption investigators Friday related to the ongoing massive energy sector kickback scandal, Yermak announced by text message to The New York Post, “I'm going to the front and am prepared for any reprisals.” He followed with, “I am an honest and decent person.” According to the lengthy analysis [emphasis ZH]: Zelensky's fixer, enforcer, gatekeeper, and indispensable ally, isn't a “corruption scandal.” It's Washington slapping the table. NABU, the U.S.-trained attack dog of Ukrainian politics, didn't raid the Presidential Office by accident.It raided to remind Zelensky that the war isn't his to command, the peace process isn't his to veto, and the leash around Bankova Street is held in Washington, not Kiev and certainly not European chihuahuas. Because the real story isn't Yermak's resignation. The real story is the West turning on itself over how to end a war Russia has already won.

The bureau said that the classified information was stashed away in a room at FBI Headquarters and was related to Crossfire Hurricane and also other FBI inquiries into President Donald Trump and his allies. Patel previously said that the FBI had found “several bags” containing evidence related to the Russiagate investigation. One electronic communication made public by the Justice Department in court filings related to the prosecution of former FBI Director James Comey earlier this month indicated the FBI began a preliminary investigation into the discovery this summer.

In this episode of The Digital Executive, host Brian Thomas welcomes Joshua Scott, Vice President of Security at Hydrolix and a veteran with nearly 30 years of experience turning complex security risks into clear business value. Josh shares how Hydrolix is redefining what's possible with massive-scale log data—processing everything from terabytes to petabytes and delivering insights in seconds.Josh breaks down why security leaders must speak the language of business, translating technical risk into financial and operational impact to earn executive alignment. He also unpacks the challenges of securing data at extreme velocity and scale, the growing need for automation, and why the next generation of security leaders will win by leveraging AI as an accelerator—not a replacement.Looking ahead, Josh discusses how AI-generated attacks, identity misuse, supply-chain compromises, and automated phishing will reshape security programs over the next three to five years. His message is clear: AI will empower defenders and attackers alike, and success will depend on how effectively teams adopt automation, prioritize intelligently, and stay ahead of rapidly evolving threats.A timely, insightful conversation for CISOs, security leaders, and technology executives navigating today's increasingly complex cyber landscape.If you liked what you heard today, please leave us a review - Apple or Spotify.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

John Casmon interviews Ed Mathews, a former Silicon Valley tech executive who walked away from a high-flying software career to build a more family-centered, freedom-focused life through real estate. Ed shares how missing too many “18 summers” with his daughters pushed him to leave DocuSign and go all-in on multifamily after seven years of flipping houses and small-building rehabs on the side. He explains how he scaled his Connecticut portfolio by finding “rock star” contractors through trade-to-trade referrals, building tight systems, and using process—not heroics—to let average people perform exceptionally well. Ed details why he prefers long-term residents over constant value-add turnover, how he achieved 4.2-year average stays, and why responsiveness, respect, and presence on site drive both mission and NOI. The conversation closes with his shift away from property management toward asset management, his expansion into AI-powered operations, and the launch of both a debt fund and private equity fund to pursue larger 150-unit-plus acquisitions.

Andrew Ross Sorkin has spent his career following the money to understand everything — from Wall Street to Silicon Valley, from media to AI. A journalist who never set out to be one, Sorkin built DealBook into the Super Bowl of business journalism, turning curiosity into empire-building. In Boardroom's October Cover Story, he shares how an overheard word such as “internet” landed him at The New York Times, how he approaches interviews like a tennis rally rather than a serve, and why Oprah remains his white whale. Through stories of Too Big to Fail, the 1929 crash, and the coming AI reckoning, Sorkin unpacks how narrative drives markets, crashes, and comebacks alike. From Elon Musk's many personas to the billion-dollar game of sports, streaming, and live entertainment, this is Andrew Ross Sorkin: journalist, storyteller, dealmaker — chasing what feels impossible, one conversation at a time.

We trace the roots of the threat—from Tavistock to the Dark Enlightenment—and expose how these forces are shaping policy, public health, and even the future of human autonomy. This conversation reveals the ideological takeover happening inside both political parties—and why your freedom depends on understanding it.

In this episode of The Digital Executive, host Brian Thomas sits down with Maksim Ovsyannikov, a veteran enterprise product leader with over 25 years of experience shaping productivity solutions across supply chain, HR, marketing automation, customer success, and CRM. Now leading product and design at SugarCRM, Maksim shares how his diverse background led him to focus on redefining CRM for the AI-native era.Maksim breaks down why traditional CRMs fail sellers, how SugarCRM's “precision selling” framework addresses the gap, and the four critical components that enable AI to transform seller productivity: delivering better leads, identifying risks, improving preparedness, and empowering coaching. He also unpacks the difference between augmentation AI and generative AI—and why the real risk isn't AI taking jobs, but humans losing jobs to those who master AI.Looking ahead, Maksim predicts that nearly all enterprise software will soon be built around AI-driven workflows that deliver outcomes, not just dashboards. He explains how conversational and agentic AI will reshape seller experiences, enabling more intuitive, human-like interactions and dramatically higher productivity.A forward-looking conversation for anyone interested in the future of CRM, sales technology, and AI-driven enterprise software.If you liked what you heard today, please leave us a review - Apple or Spotify.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this candid snack episode, Tracy sits in the interview seat as Miranda explores the practical reality of AI for private practices. Following Tracy's conversation with David Herman about AI in dental marketing, this episode addresses what practice owners are really asking about AI implementation, where these tools genuinely help, and the critical questions to ask before investing time and resources. Tracy shares insights from a recent burnout workshop with Silicon Valley physicians and offers a framework for thinking strategically about technology that supports—rather than replaces—human connection in healthcare. Click here for full show notes Episode Highlights AI's real role in healthcare: Where these tools genuinely help (administrative tasks, scribing) versus where physicians have serious concerns (primary care AI models) The "band-aid on a fixed system" reality: Why AI tools can reclaim time but don't address the systemic commodification of healthcare delivery Implementation without drowning: Tracy's framework for introducing new technology when you're already stretched thin, including the time leadership quadrant approach Real physician experiences: Stories from Tracy's primary care doctor and Miranda's daughter's cardiologist about AI scribing tools reclaiming 3-4 hours weekly The marketing-systems connection: Why beautiful marketing campaigns fail when practices lack the infrastructure to handle increased inquiry volume Questions to ask before implementing AI: What end result you want, how to ensure HIPAA compliance, where volume will come from, and whether your team is resourced for success Memorable Quotes "It's not about fear of being replaced, it's fear about causing harm." "The system isn't broken—it's fixed. One quarter of a degree at a time, the temperature has been increased to the point where it became normalized." "These people go to school for 8, 12 or more years to practice medicine and are now well paid but not well enough for the amount of hours they put in—business administrators, basically admin paper pushers." "We want all of our providers to be well rested, to have bandwidth, to not have to be reactive all the time. We want that as patients." "If we're not going to be human, then what's the point?" "Our clients do not love slowing down, but it's the way that we can gain clarity." Closing AI represents both genuine opportunity and potential pitfall for independent practices. The key lies not in whether to adopt these tools, but in approaching implementation with clear strategic thinking about your desired outcomes, team capacity, and practice ecosystem. Before investing in any AI solution, take time to work on your business from that essential 30,000-foot view—because technology without strategy is just expensive noise.

In this episode of The Digital Executive, host Brian Thomas welcomes Piet Buyck, global technology executive, AI strategist, and author of AI Compass for SC Leaders. With more than 30 years leading innovative IT solutions, Piet is on a mission to make AI-driven planning easy, accessible, and human-centered.Piet introduces the concept of the AI Compass—a framework that blends generative, agentic, and narrow AI to guide leaders through the complexities of modern supply chain planning. Instead of treating AI as just another tool, the compass helps organizations navigate uncertainty, break down functional silos, and move toward a more adaptive, holistic decision-making model.He emphasizes that AI should never replace humans, but instead amplify their judgment. Piet explains how to operationalize a “human + AI” decision model using a balance of accuracy, transparency, and fairness—determining what to automate, what to supervise, and what must remain human-led.The conversation explores why supply chain planning has remained stubbornly manual despite decades of technological progress. Piet outlines entrenched habits—rigid processes, siloed KPIs, and opaque numbers—that prevent companies from becoming AI-first. He shows how organizations can shift toward a more dynamic, assumption-driven, data-aware planning culture.Looking ahead, Piet describes the cultural transformation required for supply chain teams to thrive in an AI-augmented world: embracing continuous learning, developing data literacy, unlearning outdated practices, and building confidence to collaborate with AI systems rather than fear them. With the right mindset and governance, he believes companies can unlock massive value—far beyond traditional planning improvements.A must-listen for supply chain leaders, innovators, and anyone navigating the intersection of AI and organizational transformation.If you liked what you heard today, please leave us a review - Apple or Spotify.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In the wildly popular biohacking and longevity space, Peter Attia is often cited as one of the leading luminaries. His straightforward, science-backed approach seems to cut through the noise in a space dominated by fit bros and wellness grifters who always seem to have a product to sell. But the man who dropped out of residency at Johns Hopkins to found a private clinic focused on longevity has his share of critics, who are a bit suspicious about his self-experimentations—and the millions he makes counseling Silicon Valley insiders about experimental medicine. This week we take a look at longevity broadly and Attia specifically. Derek kicks off the episode with a recap of his time at Eudemonia Summit, where, among other things, he got to debate another leading biohacker, Dave Asprey, about seed oils. As it turns out, longevity was the top buzzword there as well.

In this episode of The Digital Executive, host Brian Thomas sits down with Dr. Hany Demian, physician innovator, regenerative medicine pioneer, and CEO of the Biop Spine Institute. With over 20 years of experience treating chronic pain, Dr. Demian has shifted away from traditional pain management toward a groundbreaking model that blends AI-driven diagnostics, cellular-level therapies, and microinvasive procedures—all aimed at restoring the body rather than simply masking symptoms.Dr. Demian shares the personal and professional turning point that pushed him to transform his approach: patients repeatedly returning with the same pain, coupled with his own struggles with chronic spine and joint issues. This inspired his mission to move beyond management and into true healing. Today, his clinics combine biologic treatments such as stem cells, PRP, and peptides with data-guided rehabilitation and AI-based predictive modeling that assesses lifestyle, genetics, wearables, inflammation markers, and more.He explains how AI is unlocking unprecedented insights—predicting who will develop back pain, how quickly degeneration will occur, and which interventions will work best. Inspired by early breakthroughs in AI-driven cardiac prediction, Dr. Demian believes spine and joint care will soon shift from reactive to proactive, catching problems 5–10 years before they become symptomatic.Looking ahead, Dr. Demian envisions a radical shift in musculoskeletal care:Regenerative therapies as first-line treatmentNear elimination of traditional pain clinicsFewer surgeries due to earlier detection and cellular repairWidespread reversal of aging-related degenerationHe predicts a future where aging becomes a “modifiable condition,” supported by advanced stem cell treatments, peptides, exosomes, genetic insights, and healthier lifestyle habits now emerging in younger generations.Dr. Demian's optimistic, science-backed vision points toward a world where chronic pain is rare, mobility is preserved, and humans age healthier and stronger than ever before.A fascinating conversation for anyone interested in regenerative medicine, longevity, AI in healthcare, and the future of pain-free living.If you liked what you heard today, please leave us a review - Apple or Spotify.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Amol Rajan speaks to Sir Nick Clegg - former deputy Prime Minister of the UK and, more recently, former President of Global Affairs at Meta - about big tech, AI and the future of social media.Sir Nick first appeared on the world stage back in 2010, when he became the UK's deputy prime minister after his Liberal Democrats party went into a coalition government with David Cameron's Conservatives.After leaving Westminster in 2017, he surprised many political observers when he was hired by Facebook, now known as Meta, to head up their global affairs and communications. In 2022, Sir Nick was then promoted to become the company's president of global affairs, where he oversaw policy and government relations.Sir Nick subsequently worked closely with Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg for several years, but decided to step down at the beginning of this year.And now, amid growing concerns over the regulation of big tech, the growth of AI and the future of the internet itself, he's drawing on his vast experience from both Westminster and Silicon Valley to offer insight into what could be ahead.Thank you to the Radical with Amol Rajan team for their help in making this programme.

They help their clients generate ROI through their done-for-you podcast service. In this episode… Podcasting continues to evolve, and not always in ways creators expect. One minute, the industry is celebrating growth, and the next, it is wrestling with algorithms, labeling rules, and shifting listener habits. With so many moving parts, how do hosts stay ahead without overthinking every episode? According to John Corcoran, a longtime leader in the podcasting space, the answer starts with understanding how small details can shape the listener experience. When asked about the issues podcasters should pay attention to, he points to something as simple as explicit-language labeling and how easily it can trip up creators. John explains that platforms often flag episodes automatically, sometimes even when no one has actually used a swear word, which means podcasters spend more time worrying about symbols than strategy. He also highlights how tools like accurate speech-to-text technology can transform productivity and consistency, especially when injury or busy seasons complicate content creation. Tune in to this episode of the Smart Business Revolution Podcast as Chad Franzen of Rise25 interviews John Corcoran to discuss the biggest issues impacting podcasts today. You will hear why explicit ratings matter more than most hosts realize, how speech-to-text tools can double your productivity, and what separates authentic B2B podcasts from forgettable ones. John also provides insights on using podcasting as a strategic tool to build relationships and grow your business.
