Helen Clark served as Prime Minister of New Zealand for three consecutive terms and went on to become Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme for two terms, one of the most senior roles in the entire UN system. In this episode of Do One Better Podcast, Alberto Lidji sits down with Helen for a wide ranging conversation covering her grassroots political beginnings in New Zealand's anti-apartheid movement, the state of global progress towards the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, and the fragile state of the international order. Helen and Alberto discuss the importance of building pragmatic coalitions and cross sector collaboration, the role philanthropy can play amid shrinking development aid, the future of Asian philanthropy on the world stage, and her work chairing Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance. They also explore the powerful role sport and volunteering play at grassroots level in building stronger communities. This conversation was recorded at the PBC 2026 Forum (Philanthropy for Better Cities 2026) in Hong Kong, and forms part of a special series marking the forum's 10th anniversary, convened by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, in association with the Institute of Philanthropy. It is a candid and ultimately hopeful conversation about how each of us, whatever our platform, can choose to do good.

Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray pick up the live text conversation from last week with fresh data on what Gmail, Apple Mail, and Copilot are actually pulling out of your sends, and the fix involves bullet points and a formula that fits in two hundred characters. There is also a genuine moral crisis about cheating on your barber, which somehow sets the tone for everything after it.ㅤBest Moments:(00:38) The haircut dilemma, and whether you can book with another stylist without earning the death stare(03:45) AI summaries pull 29 words on average, so the first 150 to 200 characters carry the whole email(04:15) Action plus product plus deadline, the formula lifting click-through rates around 19 percent(06:13) Bullets are ugly and they work, with pull rates of 77 percent in Gmail, 84 in Apple Mail, 92 in Copilot(07:29) Why vague, spammy headlines fall apart once a summary has to describe themㅤ(08:19) Over 70% of people say they are fine with AI reading their inbox to surface deals

QuickBooks and spreadsheets aren't failing because small business owners don't care. They fail because owners are busy running the business, and “keeping the books” becomes a second job with high stakes. I sit down with Justin Meretab, co-founder and CEO of Layer, to dig into why embedded accounting is emerging as one of the most practical, high-ROI moves in embedded finance for vertical SaaS platforms.We unpack the difference between accounting software and bookkeeping, then get specific about why accounting belongs in the embedded finance roadmap right alongside payments, banking, and lending. When your platform already owns the operational workflow and the payments flow, you have the richest possible data to automate reconciliation, reflect refunds and fees correctly, and generate a clean profit and loss statement without the painful setup that comes with horizontal accounting tools. Justin also shares what “good fit” looks like for embedded accounting, especially for businesses doing roughly $50K to $5M+ in revenue that need clarity without hiring a full in-house finance team.We also talk platform strategy: who should own the product, what the SaaS team should own in go to market and support, and how AI is changing everything from transaction categorization to behind-the-scenes bookkeeping automation. If you're building embedded finance, this conversation makes the case that accounting might be the simplest way to deliver immediate value, drive retention, and turn your software into the financial hub your customers already want.If you find this useful, subscribe, share the episode with a builder in vertical SaaS, and leave a review so more fintech teams can find it.

Trust is the hidden advantage that decides which payments companies earn bigger merchants, stronger partners, and more room to innovate. Greg Myers sits down with Darrel Anderson, Senior Vice President of Compliance at Payroc, to get specific about how trust is built in a world of constant audits, card brand rules, bank expectations, and fast-moving fraud. We share why “perfect security” is easy if you lock everything down, and why the real craft is building a compliance framework that protects the business while still enabling growth.We dig into what trust looks like operationally: transactions that keep flowing, the right data showing up consistently, and issues getting caught before they become fines or sanctions. Darrel explains how experienced compliance teams don't just say no, they help product and sales teams find a safe path to yes, and that credibility extends beyond merchants to regulators, card networks, and partner banks. We also talk about speed, including a simple test for reckless launches: if you cannot clearly explain the risk and controls back to someone else, you are moving too fast.When incidents happen, we focus on what preserves customer confidence: frank communication, involving customers in the solution, and taking ownership until resolution is complete. Darrel also shares leadership frameworks like the red balloon theory and “smoke detectors versus fire extinguishers” to push teams toward prevention over reaction. Finally, we tackle AI in payments compliance and fraud: how it can remove repetitive work and sharpen detection, and why criminals using AI means the arms race is just getting started.

This episode is part of our Embedded Finance Podcast Series, exploring the strategies, opportunities and challenges shaping the future of embedded finance. The series is leading up to Embedify '26, the Embedded Finance Summit for vertical SaaS leaders, taking place October 13 in Lehi, Utah. To learn more visit embedify2026.com.  Payments don't fail because the API is hard. They fail because the experience is forgettable and customers never adopt it. We talk with John Badovinac, SVP of Embedded Commerce at Flute, about what vertical SaaS leaders can do differently when they want to own the payments experience and turn it into a real line of business.We get practical on the building blocks: how to model profitability, pick a pricing policy that matches your go-to-market, and design onboarding that feels native inside your product. John explains why “launching” is only the start and how the best platforms drive payment adoption by placing invoicing, text-to-pay, stored credentials, and checkout moments directly inside the workflow users already live in.Then we look forward. John shares how AI dev tools can cut integration timelines from weeks to days, lowering the barrier to embedded payments and embedded finance. He also lays out a compelling next step: embedded intelligence, where AI helps surface working capital, instant payouts, and other financial products at the right time for the right customer. We close with what to avoid, what to demand from a payments partner, and why urgency and long-term alignment matter as you scale.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode we give Senator Bob Packwood the final word on his quick and tragic fall. Amazingly, he agreed to sit down interviews with CBS News, Dan Rather, ABC News Barbara Walters, and an extended interview with CBS News “Face the Nation” with Bob Schieffer. All over a three day period after he was forced to resign from the Senate. He is very open about his struggles and how he feels about the events of those past few days. At the time he appeared to be facing criminal prosecution. That never happened and it spoke volumes about all the non-sexual misconduct accusations piled on him as the scandal unraveled his career. This will end the scandal but we will now hear from Bob Packwood in a series of episodes covering a couple of his  speeches and a fascinating oral history on Bob Dole.  Questions or comments at  , Randalrgw1@aol.com ,  https://twitter.com/randal_wallace   , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

From there, he and Daniel Murray get into the marketing habits they are happy to watch die off, including one that everybody was told was the responsible way to do things. There is also a strong case that the email address you keep demanding from prospects is the wrong one entirely.ㅤBest Moments:(00:31) Jay builds a dorm dresser in two hours while the dad next door finishes his in 28 minutes(01:41) A GetResponse study says double opt-in is dying, and Jay could not be more thrilled about it(02:28) Roughly 30 to 40 percent of people never go back to confirm, so you quietly lose them(02:48) Spam complaints run higher on double opt-in lists because of who actually clicks that button(03:52) Personal emails match better on Meta and social since nobody puts work email on Facebook(05:40) Blocking job switchers from your content makes you the last vendor they ever call

Welcome to Winning the War for Your Heart, a special series based on Brian Freise's book, Above All Else.What if your anxiety, panic, or depression isn't something you need to get rid of—but something you actually need to learn to listen to?In Episode 1, Brian tells the story of the night pain invaded his life in a way he could no longer ignore, numb, or outrun.Brian takes us back to November 2018, when panic walked into his life uninvited, the ER visit he was ashamed to make, and the moment four words—"It's as bad as it feels"—became his first brush with real compassion.If you've ever felt broken, behind, or completely out of control, this is where Brian's journey begins.In this episode, you'll discover:Why "I'm going to push through this" can actually keep you from healingHow Brian's "Great Awakening" changed his relationship with emotionThe difference between soul neglect and genuine self-careWhy "Above all else, guard your heart" is about stewardship—not simply protectionWhy emotional pain doesn't heal the same way physical pain doesWhat to do when anxiety shows up in the middle of the night

Payments is full of “after-the-fact” reporting, but we want a world where the system warns you before the damage is done. I'm joined by Ankita Chowdhry, AI Product Lead at Payabli, to break down where AI is genuinely making a difference in payments right now and where it's still mostly experimentation. We get specific about risk queues, underwriting reviews, compliance workflows, and why modern reasoning models can reduce manual work without sacrificing safety.We also dig into what embedded finance changes for vertical SaaS platforms. When you combine financial data with operational data, you can move beyond simple scoring and start adding context: what the business actually does, how customers behave, and what patterns usually lead to disputes or stalled activation. Ankita shares how that opens the door to proactive payments operations, like detecting elevated chargeback risk early and recommending actions before a merchant gets into trouble.Then we tackle the practical questions builders are asking in 2026: what AI should you build vs buy, what makes production AI harder than a demo, and why Payabli is embedding AI directly into payments infrastructure instead of treating it like a separate tool. If you're building embedded payments, embedded finance, or a vertical SaaS platform, this is a roadmap for what to automate first and how to do it responsibly. 

Send us Fan MailIn the aftermath of the resignation we take you to the cable news and network newscasts that covered the dramatic fall of the Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee. We hear from journalist, Senators, and Senate Staffers alike as they pile on after the fall but we also hear from the public and amazingly there is the feeling of scapegoating in the air and it seems Senator Bob Packwood isn't alone in the feeling that everything that happened may not have been fair. That was a surprising find as I dug through so much of the long ago materials that I had in our collections.

For our pandemic-era Books in Dark Times (our first ever Special Series!) Elizabeth and John discussed books that were keeping us afloat, barely afloat, way back in April 2020. Memory lane, here we come! A book you might not think would be so comforting starts it off, Daniel Defoe's A Journal of the Plague Year (1722) about the plague in London “during the last Great Visitation in 1665.” Classroom resource for Great Plague of 1665-1666 here Probably based on the journals of Defoe's uncle Henry Foe, the Journal comforts Elizabeth by its similarities to our current situation, providing a sense of continuity to our forebears. Even if that continuity is through our epidemiological vulnerabilities and our incapacity for coordinated action. Second, because some aspects of what happened in 1665 seem so familiar, from detailed discussions of the “weekly bills” of dead in each parish and how to interpret them, to arguments over social isolation, contact tracing, the ethics of leaving London for second homes in the country, and the devastating secondary effects of lost commercial activity: Thirdly: at least it's not the bubonic plague. Elizabeth's love for the 47 novels of Anthony Trollope (or 35 of them, anyways) kicks off a final foray into the deeply comforting books of our childhood–and a discussion of how fantasy nestles into the ordinary.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming health systems, creating new opportunities to improve disease surveillance, diagnostics and decision-making. Yet as AI becomes more integrated into healthcare, important questions remain. How do we ensure these technologies are designed responsibly? How can they strengthen health systems without reinforcing existing inequalities? And what role should communities play in shaping the AI solutions intended to serve them?In this episode of Guiding Research, Chaitali Sinha, Senior Programme Specialist in the Global Health Division at Canada's International Development Research Centre (IDRC), speaks with Dr. Rose-Mary Owusuaa Mensah Gyening, Senior Lecturer at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Ghana.Drawing on her work developing responsible AI for vector-borne disease surveillance, Dr. Gyening discusses how artificial intelligence can support stronger health systems when communities are involved from the outset. The conversation explores why trust, transparency and inclusion are essential to responsible AI, how citizen science can improve health interventions, and why technology should strengthen-not replace-the people and systems at the heart of healthcare.In this episodeResponsible AI and health systems Community participation and citizen science Trust, ethics and data governance AI for disease surveillance and preparedness Building inclusive and equitable digital health solutions This episode forms part of the Guiding Research podcast series, produced by Global Health Matters in collaboration with Health Systems Global (HSG). The series explores the themes of the Health Systems Research (HSR) 2026 Symposium and brings together leading voices in health policy and systems research.* HSG's involvement in the production of these podcast episodes was supported by IDRC.Subscribe to the Global Health Matters podcast newsletter.  Follow us for updates:@TDRnews on XTDR on LinkedIn@ghm_podcast on Instagram@ghm-podcast.bsky.social on Bluesky Disclaimer: The views, information, or opinions expressed during the Global Health Matters podcast series are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of TDR or the World Health Organization.  All content © 2026 Global Health Matters.

Embedded finance is booming, but most platforms miss the point: customers do not want more financial products, they want fewer steps. We sit down with Marni Mullikin, Director of Platform Growth at Maverick Payments, to unpack how vertical SaaS companies can embed payments in a way that actually improves workflow, increases engagement, and creates durable revenue.We dig into why embedded payments is usually the smartest first move, from faster revenue collection and better cash flow to the long-term upside of deeper platform usage and better data. Marni walks through the strategy questions teams should answer before they ever pick a provider, including what success looks like, which ownership model fits, and how to align leadership, product, sales, and customer success so launch does not stall.We also get specific about what software companies should own (the customer relationship, brand, and product experience) versus what a payments partner should take on (underwriting, compliance, risk management, and regulatory complexity). That conversation matters even more when supporting higher risk merchants like CBD or hemp, smoke shops, firearms, gaming, and certain government payment flows with large ticket sizes.

In this fourth and final episode of the GFI's special series on UK nature finance, host Phoebe Tucker is joined by Annabel Davidson Knight, Community Benefits from Nature Adviser at the Scottish Land Commission, to ask a pressing question as private investment scales up: how do we make sure local communities are included, not sidelined? The conversation explores why community voice matters in natural capital projects, how to avoid repeating historic patterns of exclusion and extraction, recent market developments and the standards emerging to guide good practice, and the practical and financial business case for putting community inclusion at the heart of nature restoration.

This episode is part of our Embedded Finance Podcast Series, exploring the strategies, opportunities and challenges shaping the future of embedded finance. The series is leading up to Embedify '26, the Embedded Finance Summit for vertical SaaS leaders, taking place October 13 in Lehi, Utah. To learn more visit embedify2026.com. In this episode I sat down with Conn Byrne, Executive Director of Integrated Payments at Payroc, to get practical about what embedded payments and embedded finance really mean for vertical SaaS leaders who want to scale without burning engineering time.We dig into Conn's three-part framework for making embedded finance work in the real world: the cardholder and merchant experience (where retention is won or lost), the developer experience (how fast your team can integrate and customize), and the partnership experience (what happens after launch when something breaks, priorities shift, or you need roadmap clarity). Along the way, we talk about what's driving demand right now, from private equity expectations to the explosion of AI-built software platforms that can enter a vertical overnight.We also map the natural product path after embedded payments: lending built on payment data, banking capabilities that improve funding speed and reduce fees, and add-ons like payroll that can turn your platform into a true operating system for your customers. If you're evaluating an integrated payments partner, planning a migration, or trying to decide how far to go beyond payments, this conversation gives you a grounded checklist and a longer-term view.And a special thanks to Payroc for being a supporting sponsor at the summit this year. 

Send us Fan MailWith his back against the wall Senator Bob Packwood vowed to fight on. Here is the coverage of that 24 hours when all of Washington held its collective breath while Bob Packwood tried to find a way to defend himself from the overwhelming vote for expulsion, 6-0 by the Senate Ethics committee. the committee kept up the pressure by information dumping 40lbs of material from their investigation. Packwood would reach out to friends and powerful allies, like Bob Dole, and what he found was no place to go.

Send us Fan MailIn this epsode we will listen tot he one full length interview Bob Packwood gave reporter Barbara Walters about midway through the ordeal that would consume thirty-three months in total before it toppled his career. It is an in-depth interview an examination of the scandal and it does leave you with lingering questions about the entire ordeal that I think still echo through time all of these years later. The accusations were, in all but one case, decades old. the accusations about his diaries and him looking for jobs for his now ex-wife, all seems to be a little bit without merit. Was Bob Packwood about to pay the ultimate price to atone for the sins of the senate and powerful men for decades. Was the process fair?  Or was the case just that overwhelming. My own opinion is it was a little of both, but we will let you decide as you hear it all unfold over the next several episodes.  Questions or comments at  , Randalrgw1@aol.com ,  https://twitter.com/randal_wallace   , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Send us Fan MailIn this preview we look back at arguably the biggest game changer of 1995 for Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole. It was the loss of his chief Lieutenant in the United States Senate, Bob Packwood. Dole and Packwood were friends, and both men were experts on the Federal budget. Packwood's loss cannot be overstated. In this special series we will examine the scandal that brought him down, the agonizing three years it unfolded and the shocking 24 hours in which one of the most brilliant and powerful leaders in modern Senate history saw his two decade career collapse. Questions or comments at  , Randalrgw1@aol.com ,  https://twitter.com/randal_wallace   , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray make the case that your loudest buying signals are sitting in segments you probably never bothered to build, hiding in plain sight while you fuss over the folks who already converted. There is also a detour into bikini-store career advice and the structural horrors of the Rhode Island accent, so adjust your expectations accordingly.ㅤFollow Daniel on LinkedIn and check out The Marketing Millennials podcast for sharp, no-fluff marketing insights.
