Episode 097: “The Space Between My Truth and Yours” Disagreement doesn't have to mean disconnection. In an age of constant polarization, we're quick to assume that difference equals danger — but it doesn't have to. In this episode of Staying Power, JDK and Ashley explore how two people can both “be right” from their own lived experience, and still stay curious, compassionate, and connected. They unpack what psychology and neuroscience say about cognitive flexibility, emotional safety, and why the brain craves certainty even when it costs us closeness. Learn practical ways to hold space for “two truths” in your relationships — from partners and coworkers to friends and family — and why the capacity to do so might be one of the most important resilience skills of our time.

Episode 096: “Letting People Be Themselves (Without Losing Yourself)” Why is it so hard to stop trying to “fix” or “improve” other people — even when we know it rarely works? Whether it's a partner, co-worker, or family member, most of us try to shape others to meet our comfort zones, beliefs, or needs for control. In this episode of Staying Power, JDK and Ashley unpack the deep human drive behind this habit — from nervous system survival patterns to attachment conditioning — and explore how we can build healthier, more authentic connections through acceptance and self-awareness. Learn how to recognize manipulation (even subtle, well-intended kinds), set compassionate boundaries, and shift your focus from control to connection through both mindset and somatic tools.

What do you do when life doesn't make sense, when the answers don't come, and the waiting seems endless? In this week's message, Pastor Ken Senchal challenges us to build staying power—the kind of faith that stands firm when the storm doesn't pass. Through the powerful story of Joseph, we uncover the four anchors that create real consistency: ⚓ Trust God when life doesn't make sense. Even when Joseph was betrayed, sold, and forgotten, he trusted that God was working behind the scenes. What feels like a detour is often divine direction. ⚓ Guard your integrity when no one's watching. Joseph could have compromised, but instead he honored God in private moments that defined his public destiny. Character under pressure reveals who we truly are. ⚓ Serve faithfully wherever God places you. Whether in Potiphar's house, in prison, or in the palace, Joseph worked with excellence as unto the Lord. God promotes those who stay faithful in the unseen places. ⚓ Choose forgiveness over bitterness. Joseph had every right to get even—but instead, he chose to forgive. Forgiveness freed his heart and positioned him for God's greater purpose. This episode will remind you that consistency isn't built in comfort—it's built in the struggle. When you remain faithful through difficulty, God is shaping the strength you'll need for destiny.

This week, we conclude our "Staying Power" series by exploring the ultimate question of allegiance. When life's storms hit and your faith is tested, where do you turn? Drawing from John chapter 6, we delve into Peter's powerful declaration of unwavering commitment to Jesus, the source of eternal life. Discover how building on the right foundation, staying connected, and remaining in God's radical love are the keys to enduring any challenge. This message is a roadmap for living, reminding us that true staying power isn't about our strength, but about staying anchored in the One who holds us firm.

Episode 095: “The Bright Side Has Clouds Too” We often think of “happy” people as immune to bad days — or that those who struggle with sadness or stress can't genuinely embrace positivity. In this episode of Staying Power, JDK and Ashley explore why both ideas miss the mark. True happiness isn't about constant positivity; it's about balance — the ability to hold space for hard emotions and good ones without falling into toxic positivity or hopeless pessimism. With insights from psychology and neuroscience, they unpack how resilient people manage emotional ups and downs, what happiness actually means in research terms, and how to cultivate emotional flexibility in daily life.

Most Christians don't miss their harvest because they don't love God — they miss it because they stop too soon. They lose steam when the results don't show up fast enough. In this convicting and timely teaching, Pastor Ken exposes the gap between good intentions and consistent obedience — and why the blessing of God is always found on the other side of endurance. Through Galatians 6:9 and examples like Noah and Daniel, we learn that: Prayer is not a religious task — it is the relationship that fuels your consistency God's Word is the tool that forms your character and anchors your decisions Small acts of daily obedience create tomorrow's breakthrough Your feelings do not determine your faithfulness — your decisions do God's favor follows those who keep showing up even when nothing seems to change If you've been tempted to quit, if you feel weary in well-doing, or if you've been waiting for God to move but haven't stayed consistent — this message will call you higher. Listen in, receive strength, and recommit to the disciplines that build unshakeable believers. Share this episode with someone who is on the edge of giving up. Your encouragement may be the reason they stay in the fight.

"For many of us, myself included, it's easy to want to be on the New York Times bestseller list, or the USA Today bestseller list, and to try to get an amazing number of week-one sales, but it's important to remember that those lists are really hard to get on, and there can be this nice long tail in terms of the impact of a book where maybe it doesn't necessarily get a ton of sales in that first week or that first month. But over time, it continues to sell, right? And then you get these bumps, and you realize that, oh, this book has staying power," says Mallary Tenore Tarpley.Mallary is here today for a double-feature Friday. She's the author of Slip: Life in the Middle of Eating Disorder Recovery (Simon & Schuster/Simon Element). It's pretty heavy shit, man. She developed a disordered relationship to food when her mother passed away when she was just 11 years old. Mallary spent years in treatment and the book blends her personal story with the ballast of science and outward-facing reporting, memoir-plus as it was pitched. We'll call it Memoir Max.Mallary has been on the hustle for Slip. She's everywhere. She's posting. She's newslettering. She's beating the drum. She's an example of what a modern author must do in this age. I'd say take a look at what she's doing and maybe cherry pick what works for you. But speaking from experience, really nobody is going to do it for you.She graduated from Providence College and earned an MFA in creative nonfiction from Goucher College, where she started Slip.

Tracii Guns of LA Guns joins Greg Koch for a refreshingly honest exploration of what makes rock and roll endure through decades of industry upheaval. Their conversation weaves through Tracii's musical awakening at age five—hearing Led Zeppelin's theremin breakdown in "Whole Lotta Love" from the backseat of a car—to building and maintaining LA Guns through countless lineup changes and industry shifts.With remarkable candor, Tracii takes us behind the scenes of his evolution as a guitarist, from his early days playing "Scorpion-style heavy metal with a little Jimmy Page thrown in" to his current approach. Guitar aficionados will delight in their deep dive into equipment - Tracii's journey from traditional JCM 800 Marshalls to embracing digital technology while maintaining his signature sound. "You keep changing stuff but you keep getting the same sound," his tech once observed.The pair unpack the mystique of legendary guitarists like Jimmy Page, revealing that greatness often comes from simplicity rather than complexity. "For all the magic that he is, he bought his main guitar for 500 bucks from Joe Walsh," Tracii notes, suggesting that true mastery comes from dedication to playing, not gear acquisition.Perhaps most valuable is Tracii's hard-earned wisdom about music industry survival: "You don't need a million people, you just need enough people to support you. You get 10,000 people buying everything you do, you're done." In an age of algorithm-chasing and viral fame, Tracii and Greg remind us that authentic connection through live performance remains the beating heart of rock and roll.Want to see these two legends join forces? Catch Tracii Guns and Greg Koch performing together at the Basement East on August 27th—a rare opportunity to witness their musical chemistry in person.

Two weeks ago, when Paramount cancelled “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” insiders in Hollywood and Washington alike deemed the move suspicious: Colbert had just called his parent company's payout to Trump a “big fat bribe” on air. Paramount, for its part, claims that the decision was purely financial—Colbert's show is losing forty million dollars a year. But both the political and economic explanations reveal how the landscape of late night has changed since Johnny Carson's day. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz consider Colbert's body of work and the state of the genre more generally, from the so-called late-night wars of the nineties through to the modern challenge of making comedy in a country where nothing feels funny anymore. “Late-night hosting is an art, but it's also business. So, if your job is to get as many eyeballs on you as is humanly possible, what do you do?” Schwartz says. “It's not easy to have fun with the news, as it is. And if you are having fun with it, something may very well be wrong.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Strangers with Candy” (1999–2000)“The Daily Show” (1996–)“The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” (2015–26)“The Staying Power of the ‘S.N.L.'

Lindsay Pinchuk is re-launching her newsletter, The FoundHer Files on Substack! No fluff. No gatekeeping. Just what works… because we're better together. Make sure you subscribe for simple business and marketing tips designed for actual growth. SUBSCRIBE HERE. Two former Lululemon insiders took a conversation in a Vancouver hot tub and turned it into a multi-million dollar DTC swimwear brand built on real product expertise, trust in their partnership, and a clear vision of what women actually need in a swimsuit.In this episode, Lindsay Pinchuk talks with Laura Low Ah Kee and Shannon Savage, the co-founders of Left On Friday, about how they pulled from over a decade of product experience at Lululemon to rethink what swimwear could be. Why were there still no suits that worked for movement and looked good too? What would happen if they applied everything they knew about fit, fabric, and function to a category that had barely evolved? That spark of an idea eventually became a focused product line, a growing team, and a brand that's now seen on Olympic athletes and Gwyneth Paltrow alike.Laura and Shannon share what it looked like to build their DTC business from the ground up using their own money, the value of starting small and negotiating smart, and how they've stayed committed to growth that's intentional and sustainable. You'll hear how they used their own networks, leaned on past experience, and figured out what to outsource along the way. They didn't just chase hype. They built something they wanted to last.If you've ever wondered how to turn deep experience into a brand with staying power, or how to balance vision with execution, this is the kind of conversation that makes you stop and think.

This week, hosts Chad Sowash, Joel Cheesman, and Emi Beredugo sling zingers at the tech and policy chaos of today's work of work. First up, they cackle over OpenAI's Sam Altman throwing shade at Meta, claiming Zuck's crew dangled $100 million bonuses to poach his AI wizards. Altman, smirking on his brother's podcast, scoffed, “Meta's not exactly an innovation powerhouse,” betting OpenAI's culture will outshine cash as they chase superintelligence—AI that'll make humans look like dial-up modems. Chad quips, “Zuck's throwing cash like confetti, but Altman's holding the AGI trump card.” Next, the hosts tackle Trump's immigration whiplash. Last week, he hit pause on ICE raids targeting farms and hotels—where 42% of crop workers and 7.6% of hospitality staff are undocumented—after farmers cried foul. But days later, he flipped, doubling down on mass deportations, especially in blue states, risking $315 billion in economic fallout. Tech gets weirder with Amazon's Andy Jassy predicting AI will shrink corporate jobs, leaning on generative AI and Zoox's 10,000 robotaxis to replace drivers. Meanwhile, Zoom's Eric Yuan shrugs off work-life balance, saying leaders live for work and family, but sees AI pushing Gen Z toward three-day workweeks. Klarna's CEO, Sebastian Siemiatkowski, not to be outdone, launches an AI hotline starring a digital him. Surely, AI Sebastian will be running interviews at Klarna soon, right? Tune in for insight.

What really happened inside Google Brain when the “Attention is All You Need” paper was born? In this episode, Aidan Gomez — one of the eight co-authors of the Transformers paper and now CEO of Cohere — reveals the behind-the-scenes story of how a cold email and a lucky administrative mistake landed him at the center of the AI revolution.Aidan shares how a group of researchers, given total academic freedom, accidentally stumbled into one of the most important breakthroughs in AI history — and why the architecture they created still powers everything from ChatGPT to Google Search today.We dig into why synthetic data is now the secret sauce behind the world's best AI models, and how Cohere is using it to build enterprise AI that's more secure, private, and customizable than anything else on the market. Aidan explains why he's not interested in “building God” or chasing AGI hype, and why he believes the real impact of AI will be in making work more productive, not replacing humans.You'll also get a candid look at the realities of building an AI company for the enterprise: from deploying models on-prem and air-gapped for banks and telecoms, to the surprising demand for multimodal and multilingual AI in Japan and Korea, to the practical challenges of helping customers identify and execute on hundreds of use cases.CohereWebsite - https://cohere.comX/Twitter - https://x.com/cohereAidan GomezLinkedIn - https://ca.linkedin.com/in/aidangomezX/Twitter - https://x.com/aidangomezFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comX/Twitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCapMatt Turck (Managing Director)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/X/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturck(00:00) Intro (02:00) The Story Behind the Transformers Paper (03:09) How a Cold Email Landed Aidan at Google Brain (10:39) The Initial Reception to the Transformers Breakthrough (11:13) Google's Response to the Transformer Architecture (12:16) The Staying Power of Transformers in AI (13:55) Emerging Alternatives to Transformer Architectures (15:45) The Significance of Reasoning in Modern AI (18:09) The Untapped Potential of Reasoning Models (24:04) Aidan's Path After the Transformers Paper and the Founding of Cohere (25:16) Choosing Enterprise AI Over AGI Labs (26:55) Aidan's Perspective on AGI and Superintelligence (28:37) The Trajectory Toward Human-Level AI (30:58) Transitioning from Researcher to CEO (33:27) Cohere's Product and Platform Architecture (37:16) The Role of Synthetic Data in AI (39:32) Custom vs. General AI Models at Cohere (42:23) The AYA Models and Cohere Labs Explained (44:11) Enterprise Demand for Multimodal AI (49:20) On-Prem vs. Cloud (50:31) Cohere's North Platform (54:25) How Enterprises Identify and Implement AI Use Cases (57:49) The Competitive Edge of Early AI Adoption (01:00:08) Aidan's Concerns About AI and Society (01:01:30) Cohere's Vision for Success in the Next 3–5 Years

Jacob spent 14 years serving another man's vision to be able to possess the promises of God. Joshua dwelt in the tent of God long after Moses left, spending more time in the Lord's presence. Our steadfast nature requires a vision for things of God and a dwelling with Jesus that is more than quid pro quo, but rather a life of devotion and relationship.
