There's a lethal trifecta of AI risks: access to private data, exposure to untrusted content, and external communication. In this conversation, Risky Business host Patrick Gray chats with Josh Devon, the co-founder of Sondera, about how to best address these risks. There is no magic solution to this problem. AI models mix code and data, are non-deterministic, and are crawling around all over your enterprise data and APIs as you read this. But in this sponsored interview, Josh outlines how we can start to wrap our hands around the problem. This episode is also available on Youtube. Show notes

In this episode, we explore real experiences that went far beyond “spiritual healing”: encounters with predatory spirits, looping insanity, shapeshifting shamans, and the terrifying aftermath that left people questioning their sanity, their safety, and their place in the world. These aren't your typical retreat stories. These are the ones nobody wants to talk about.From clown phobia turned hellscape to Tetris-brain thought loops, Tim Burton creatures crawling from the void, and a chilling cultural warning about who Ayahuasca may truly be meant for—these firsthand accounts paint a picture of a medicine that can heal… or completely unravel you. If you're fascinated by psychedelic horror, spiritual misfires, and mind-bending supernatural encounters, this episode pulls back the curtain on the shadow realm of Ayahuasca.We'll see you on the inside..TIME STAMPS:0:00 - Bad Trips: The Dark Side of Ayahuasca…1:00 - Intro Music1:58 - Welcome In, Fellow Weirdos2:34 - Christian's Hawaiian Baseball Coach Story For The 400th Time6:41 - Join The Memberships Page So We can Afford a New Computer7:16 - BAD TRIP: It's a No From Me, Boss.11:30 - Christian Mocks Our Stories Author13:30 - Stay on the Resort if You Look Like Scott14:00 - Christian Mansplains Criminal Behavior..17:51 - BAD TRIP: Thought I Wasn't Coming Back..21:21 - Christian Acts Triggered By The "R" Word24:15 - Bring Out The Ol' Soapbox, C.27:00 - The Number of Creepy Clown Trips is Wild30:03 - Scott's Melatonin Dreams Unlock at 250,000 Subs31:40 - Butterscotch Gang Intermission32:58 - Otamatone Rave Song Fail33:43 - BAD TRIP: Darkness Eternal: A Timeline43:17 - BAD TRIP: A Warning For Whitey45:04 - Christian Admits to LOVING Racism?

The Operator's Guide to AI Tool Selection (Before Your CEO Buys Another One) Your entrepreneur is excited about another AI tool, but before you add it to your tech stack, you need to know this: MIT research shows that 95% of AI investments have produced zero returns at the company level.  The Salesforce disaster is the perfect case study: they laid off 4,000 employees to pivot to AI (after promising it wouldn't impact jobs), then had to pivot back when the large language models proved unreliable and experienced drift.  As operators and Seconds-In-Command, you're fielding these AI tool requests constantly, but most SMBs aren't ready for agentic AI or even vibe-coded applications that pose serious security risks (60% of businesses shut down after a cyber attack). In this episode, host Megan Long covers some basic frameworks and points of skepticism to be aware of before adopting any AI tool - agentic or vide-coded.  Beyond ROI concerns, there are real ethical considerations. Being intentional about AI tool selection isn't just about avoiding wasted budget; it's about building efficiencies responsibly without compromising security or causing harm. You'll hear all about: 00:29 - Introduction: The plethora of AI tools promising the world and how operators are fielding these from excited CEOs 00:59 - Origin story: Second First Mastermind quarterly cohort meetings and how vendor selection became a hot topic 01:49 - The 6 critical questions to ask before purchasing any software or tool (pull up your notes app!) 02:57 - The overwhelming answer: Yes, we've all wasted significant time and money on failed software purchases 03:14 - The AI reality check: MIT research shows 95% of AI investments have produced zero returns 03:36 - The nuance: Individuals find personal efficiencies, but company-level P&L shows no benefits 03:45 - Surprising finding: Most AI investments go to Sales & Marketing instead of Operations 03:59 - Salesforce case study: Laid off 4,000 employees for AI, then had to pivot back when it failed 04:40 - Vibe coding concerns: Security and compliance risks when beginners code their own apps 05:18 - The scary stat: 60% of businesses shut down following a cyber attack 05:43 - What is agentic AI and why it sounds so promising (systems that act autonomously on your behalf) 06:14 - Why most SMBs aren't ready: Clean your house before inviting the AI guest over 06:52 - Four guidelines for selecting AI tools: Start low-cost, tie to value creation, plan to scale, use KYA framework 08:11 - The Know Your Agent (KYA) framework: Capability, behaviors, decision tracing, abuse prevention, sandboxes, and human overrides 09:15 - Soapbox moment: Using AI ethically and understanding why people are anti-AI 09:50 - The creative industry impact: Animation directors, musicians, and the elimination of royalties 10:27 - Other ethical concerns: Deepfakes, surveillance, misinformation, environmental harm in rural communities   Rate, review & follow on Apple Podcasts Click Here to Listen!

Marc rails that constitutional war powers matter but argues Trump's Venezuela actions—though labeled corrupt by opponents—were decisive, practical, and “America First,” not the start of endless wars; he accuses Democrats and the mainstream media of being outmaneuvered, dismisses fears of a Greenland “invasion” as hysterical distraction, and frames the moment as a reclaiming of Monroe Doctrine-style U.S. strength that keeps enemies off balance.

Marc kicks off a packed first hour covering the opening day of Missouri's legislative session, with insight into tax cut talks, lobbying battles, and upcoming interviews with state leaders. On the Soapbox, he defends Trump's Venezuela strategy as a smart, “America First” move that exposes media hypocrisy and Democratic double standards. Kim's “Whim” segment unpacks the Hilton hotel backlash over DHS and ICE agents being denied rooms, sparking debate over political bias in business. The hour closes with a heartfelt tribute to Michael Reagan, honoring his legacy of faith, patriotism, and his father's enduring example. #MissouriPolitics #AmericaFirst #HiltonControversy #Venezuela #MichaelReagan #MarcCoxShow #KimOnAWhim

Normally, when one of the Ladies asks a Big Question, the answer ends up being exploratory and open-ended — but not today. Today, Erin isn't asking. She's telling.   It's Erin's Soapbox: The Internet Ruined Christmas Lists.   In this episode, Erin compares the traditional handwritten Christmas list (with its general descriptions of needs and wants) to the modern Amazon wish list (with its detailed prescriptions for specific gifts, right down to the desired size, pattern, and color) and finds that there is really no comparison.   “Part of what happens with an old-fashioned Christmas list is relational,” says Erin. “The person giving the gift gets to really consider what they know about the person they are selecting a gift for, and consider what they would enjoy. And the receiver gets to learn something about the person who gave it.” Amazon and other online wish lists, by contrast, are transactional, require (and allow) no creativity, and do little to enhance relationships.   Throughout the conversation, Erin, Sarah, and Rachel all share stories about good, bad, and sometimes highly idiosyncratic Christmas wish list experiences and offer practical tips for how to craft — and shop from — a well-made Christmas list.   Connect with the Lutheran Ladies on social media in The Lutheran Ladies' Lounge Facebook discussion group (facebook.com/groups/LutheranLadiesLounge) and on Instagram @lutheranladieslounge.

We pull on a few loose threads from recent episodes, and some of them unravel into way more than we expected.

In this Marc Cox Soap Box segment, Marc breaks down the national reaction to Dick Cheney's funeral and how the media chose to frame the coverage. He looks at the difference between past political civility and the tone of today, then digs into why Donald Trump and JD Vance did not attend and how their absence was portrayed. Marc also examines shifting alliances inside the Republican Party and what this moment says about the changing political narrative.

In this sponsored Soap Box edition of the podcast, Andrew Morris joins Patrick Gray to talk about how Greynoise can often get a 90 day heads up on serious vulnerabilities. Whether it's malicious actors doing reconnaissance or the affected vendors trying to understand the scope of the problem, it seems that mass scanning activity lines up pretty nicely with typical 90-day disclosure timelines. A fascinating chat with Andrew, as always. This episode is also available on Youtube. Show notes

BrownTown debriefs"No Cop Academy: The Documentary" (2023) with campaign organizers, interviewees, and producer/curator of the film, Debbie Southorn and Destiny Harris. The team reunites to discuss the creation, process, and impact of the one-hour SoapBox-produced film and the #NoCopAcademy campaign more broadly. The adult-supported, youth directed coalition and campaign from 2017-2019 was a grassroots effort demanding the city of Chicago stop the construction of a then-$95 million dollar cop academy in West Garfield Park and fund youth and communities instead. The city ultimately decided to move forward with the project, however, the lessons learned and strategies seeded would prove fruitful for future campaigns in Chicago and movements across the country. The gang unpacks how Chicago youth changed the organizing landscape and movement media supported in naming, framing, and resisting power, both forging a path to the city's current political moment. BrownTown and guests compare and contrast the struggles of the late 2010's to what our movements are up against in this new fascist reality.

Guess who's back... on this episode after a long break due to... things.... we discussed the recent store relocation to Archbald, PA, smooth pavement, weird inspectors and of course the absolute shiteshow going on absolutely everywhere all at once... Soapbox deployed.    

In the archives of major American rhetorical moments, "Leave Britney Alone!" by Cara Cunningham (formerly known as Chris Crocker) is one of the most impactful. She taught a generation about the dangers of gossip magazines and criticism culture in one poorly-lit youtube video.Well, Cara is in good company. Won't people ever Leave Jane Alone?

Technology woes aside, it's time for another episode of the Carpool Podcast! There's so much to talk about today including BIG merch updates, the Sexiest Man Alive and excitement for 'Zootopia 2.' Plus, the games that are helping Kelly get through her post-allergic reaction brain fog. It's been a while, but Kelly has a new fast lane philosophy that might take a couple minutes for you to figure out, but it's totally worth the journey. Then, some great advice questions that have Kelly and Lizz helping a Chick-Fil-A owner spend $70,000 on a new car and helping a new grandma to find the perfect car for her. It's time to talk about 'Dancing with the Stars' and with the contestant count dwindling, it's time to really focus on who should go next. It should be Andy, but will it? Also, something needs to be said about celebrity guest judges. In Industry News, both Ram and Hyundai are ramping up their line-ups significantly. Ram has their first SUV on the way and Hyundai will have 4 truck models by 2030! Today's episode is brought to you by ⁠⁠Clean Simple Eats⁠⁠.

BrownTown chops it up with Kiara Hardin and Infiniti Gant, multifaceted organizers with the Obama Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) coalition. Ten years since the announcement of the Obama Presidential Center (OPC) on Chicago's South Side and five years since the passing of the Woodlawn Ordinance that ensured housing protections for some residents, the coalition has continued to organize to ensure affordable housing for more area residents, including and specifically South Shore. The gang compares and contrasts the political moment and opportunities from summer 2020, in the midst of the uprisings, to fall 2025 under a Brandon Johnson Mayoral Administration with a backdrop of a fascist takeover on the federal level. They end with a discussion on the interpersonal nature of community organizing at its root in relation to de-pedestalizing politicians in order to circumvent power to the people because when we fight, we win! Originally recorded September 10, 2025. GUESTSKiara Hardin is a dynamic project manager and organizational strategist with a passion for creative, collaborative solutions that center the needs and priorities of the Black community. With a strong focus on capacity-building, Kiara partners with Black-led and Black-focused organizations to create anti-authoritarian systems that fortify organizational infrastructure and promote sustainable growth. Her work, driven by a commitment to social equity, particularly addresses the social determinants of health. A dedicated community organizer, Kiara played a key role in the organizing efforts behind the South Shore Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) ordinance, working alongside local residents to fight for equitable development and protect long-standing Black communities from displacement. Through this campaign, she is helping build grassroots power, elevate community voice, and ensure that public policy reflects the lived experiences and demands of South Shore residents. Follow Kiara on Instagram and Linkedin.Infiniti is an incredibly motivated, astute, and empathetic community organizer with the willingness to push beyond previous experiences to contribute innovative ideas and creations. A skilled public speaker, researcher, organizer, independent worker, and team player, she's all about freedom and committed to using those skills for building people power for her community.Follow the Obama CBA on Instagram and Twitter.
