[00:00:09] Diane Bouis: The inventions and technologies are fascinating and so are the people who work with them. [00:00:15] Frank Jaskulke: There was a period of time where I realized, fundamentally, my job was to go hang out with really smart people that are saving lives and then do work that would help them save more lives. [00:00:28] Diane Bouis: I got into the business to save lives and it is incredibly motivating to work with people who are in that same business, saving or improving lives. [00:00:38] Duane Mancini: What better industry than where I get to wake up every day and just save people's lives. [00:00:42] Lindsey Dinneen: These are extraordinary people doing extraordinary work, and this is The Leading Difference. Hello, and welcome back to another episode of The Leading Difference podcast. I'm your host, Lindsey, and I am so looking forward to my conversation today with Ryan Phelan. Ryan is a partner and patent attorney at the Chicago based intellectual property law firm, Marshall Gerstein, where he counsels medtech companies on protecting their valuable IP. Ryan ultimately believes that AI is an important technology to embrace, but cautions medical device and related companies to approach it pragmatically, developing a policy to govern and protect intangible assets and innovation. All right. Well, thank you so much for being here, Ryan. I'm so excited to speak with you today. [00:01:29] Ryan Phelan: Yeah. Thank you for having me. Thank you, Lindsey. [00:01:31] Lindsey Dinneen: Of course. Well, I'd love if you'd start off by sharing a little bit about your background and what led you to medtech. [00:01:39] Ryan Phelan: Sure, absolutely. So I'm an attorney by trade. And I started off in probably a different place than most people in MedTech, but I have a computer science degree and I worked in industry first for Accenture, doing a lot of programming and consulting in the FinTech world. So, high frequency trading and programming some pretty complicated data algorithms in order to trade stocks and bonds and securities, and things like this. That let me see aspects of intellectual property that people were doing with respect to the code I was writing. So I got curious with IP and law, and that led me to law school, Northwestern Law, in pursuing a joint JD, MBA program, which I finished in 2010. And I went into IP law with a passion for technology, pretty much in the computing space. And then in the last decade or so, IP practitioners, not unlike doctors, like to practice in specific areas and one of the ones that I focused on is software medical devices. And so that, that kind of led me into the realm of medtech. [00:02:48] Lindsey Dinneen: Very nice. Okay. So you have had such an interesting career trajectory and I'm wondering, back in the day, say you're a six year old Ryan, could six year old Ryan have predicted that you would be a lawyer and particularly intellectual property? [00:03:04] Ryan Phelan: Absolutely not. I mean, first of all nobody in my family, at least immediate family, was a lawyer. And so going to law school was not on the radar. I grew up in Louisiana in a small town, basically farm life, so certainly technology and stuff like that wasn't available in the city. But I did have a passion for things that were tech. I was certainly a kid that loved to take things apart and put them back together and build all kinds of Legos and stuff like that. So that basic kind of STEM acumen or desire was always there from the beginning. And so, as I, I grew up and got exposed to more things, certainly in college, it became kind of a passion. And so, I ended up doing that. We did have some medical issues in my family, including cardiac and cancer and stuff like that. So, those types of things always hit home with me and you're getting to a chance to kind of lean into medtech, at least on the software side, with medtech devices that include or incorporate medical technology became very interesting to me personally. [00:04:07] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, of course. And so going back just a smidgen when you decided to go into law and you know, you've come from this background that was the software engineering and you've got this fintech background and you have all of these amazing skill sets already, what led you specifically to say, "Okay, I want to focus on intellectual property, and so this is going to be my, my sweet spot." [00:04:33] Ryan Phelan: Yeah. So when you go to law school, you get exposed to a lot of different classes. In fact, in your first year law school, you're required to take a bunch of baseline courses like criminal law and all these things. And so you quickly figure out what you like and what you don't like. And so for me, a computer science degree is always kind of the beating heart of what I loved. And so I wanted to, I tended to like, classes that were up that alley, so to speak. And the IP course that I took was definitely there because it was all about technology, inventions, people making things, and how those inventions played out in court. So I found my greatest joy in law school to be in those classes. So I spoke up the most in class and did the best. There's common saying that "you should do things that you love because you never have to work a day in your life" kind of thing. So I always try to think about that, and certainly fun today because I practice in IP and picked that direction. [00:05:27] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, absolutely. So, in addition to all of the other credentials you have, you are also a published author and you are a speaker. And I would love if you would share maybe a little bit more about how you got into being a thought leader as well in your industry and how that path has taken you. [00:05:51] Ryan Phelan: Yeah, for sure. It's the same kind of thing. I've always liked to write as well. And I feel that when I write about something, I really get to understand it. And so in my field, there's a lot of stuff happening all the time. Like a court will come out with a new case, an IP and medtech or AI or something like this, and I really like to dig into it to figure out how can I use this court decision as a tool for clients, or how does this change things up? What will clients ask me questions going forward, or how can this be an interesting topic to either write about or to speak about? And so, I try to learn when I'm reading, and then I write it, and that teaches me, and I think and hope that others get a benefit from that too when I publish, so. [00:06:34] Lindsey Dinneen: Yes, of course. Of course. And you are also, if I'm not mistaken, an adjunct professor. So, first of all, do you sleep? And second of all, tell me more about this as well, please. [00:06:47] Ryan Phelan: Yeah, so I'm an adjunct professor at Northwestern Law. I teach a course on patenting software inventions. I do sleep because it's only once a year for a power week. You know, I think it's like three days out of the year. There's the long classes, they're like a few hours each, but we pack in several 30 minute core sessions into a day. So one day, maybe we'll go for three hours or two hours. And, you know, we will get the benefit of several weeks of coursework by doing all of that at once in those three days. And so, I teach on that. We teach fundamentals of patenting softwares and inventions, which includes medtech software devices. For example, the FDA classifies software, medical inventions in, in, in certain ways, like their software as a medical device where you have the software only such as, you have database with medical data and you're either formatting it or storing it or processing in some unique way, or you have software in a medical device where you actually have a physical device. It's a cardiac device where the software is running or at least partially running that device. And so we talk about ways to, to patent those inventions primarily with US law. So. [00:07:59] Lindsey Dinneen: Very nice. So specifically thinking about your medtech clients, because I know you probably have clients in many industries, but specifically in medtech, what are some of the common mistakes you see medtech companies making? Especially say, you know, an earlier startup or something like that, when maybe they haven't thought through an aspect that really should be thought through a little bit earlier in the process. What are some common things that you see that people should be aware of? [00:08:27] Ryan Phelan: Yeah, I mean, easily one of them is not filing a patent application early. And if they are a startup company and they have their biggest selling product, or what they think will be their biggest selling product, and they don't file a patent application on it, that could be bad because you have one year to get to the patent office with that, at least in the U. S. to file something once it's been publicly disclosed. And if you miss that deadline, then effectively you're allowing your competitors to copy it. And if you're a startup company, the last thing you want is for your product to become extremely successful and then a big Fortune 500 company gets wind of it, figures out you don't have a patent, and then just starts making it themselves and it takes away your market share. So that would be, you know, I think that's every inventor of startups like worst nightmare, right? So, getting that patent on file before the deadline is pretty important. [00:09:22] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, of course. Now, I noticed you had recently written an article on LinkedIn about when to file this patent. And I know part of maybe some concerns that might arise are, "Well, we don't necessarily want this to be in public awareness yet." So how do you walk that line between "This is our IP, we're really trying to keep it very tight," versus, "But I also need this protection, this legal protection." So how do you navigate things like that? [00:09:54] Ryan Phelan: Yeah, so the point at which you need to make your invention publicly available or to disclose it because you need to, you know, maybe you're going to pitch competition and you need to show your invention on like a PowerPoint deck in front of hundreds of people. Then that's probably a good point to start thinking about filing a patent application if you're still developing it, and it's like in your basement, so to speak, and nobody's seen it. It's still secret then. You don't need to necessarily file a patent application at that point. Although, there's a funny thing in patent law where, if you have an idea, sometimes there's somebody else thinking about it too, and the first one to get the patent office, wins, and so, you certainly don't want to wait around too long and find out years later that you filed your patent application the day after somebody else. This actually happened with Thomas Edison and the light bulb and he had lots of fights about the other person that was claiming the same thing that lost, and we don't remember his name today because of that. So anyway, so that's one thing to keep in mind when you're starting out. [00:10:54] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. Well, and speaking of those kinds of stories, are there any that particularly stand out to you as you've worked with all of these incredible clients who have seriously life changing products they're creating. Are there any that really stand out to you in your memory as affirming, "Oh my goodness, this is why I'm here. This is why I'm doing what I'm doing." [00:11:17] Ryan Phelan: Yeah, for sure. One that stands out is one in the opioid or the narcotics market. In my family, we have an individual who is unfortunately affected by this. And so, I had a client that reached out to me to create a VR program that helps to eliminate or to reduce cravings in this field. And that one was really impactful because using technology and non pharmaceutical way in order to reduce cravings for people that are struggling with addiction of some type, I felt to be very important. So I thoroughly enjoyed working with that inventor and helping to, to create that patent application for that invention. [00:11:59] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, of course. Yeah. Thank you for sharing about that. I think sometimes those really personal connection kinds of stories are the ones that really stick in your mind because it, it helps to have this moment of realization, like you know that what you do matters, of course, but then having that extra layer of confirmation that "Yes, this is helping somebody who could literally be a family member or a close friend or relative" is really impactful. [00:12:25] Ryan Phelan: Exactly. [00:12:26] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. So considering all of the industries that you currently serve, and of course, you have this incredibly varied background, which can only be wonderful to draw on from this rich history and experience of yours. What are some interesting crossovers you see between industries that can be useful in terms of, maybe one industry approaches something in a way that you've seen could actually really benefit folks in medtech or vice versa. Are you seeing trends like that? [00:12:59] Ryan Phelan: Yeah, absolutely. I mean, one of the biggest ones that I can think of now is artificial intelligence coming into play with medtech. I mean, certainly, medtech kind of runs the gamut of, you know, like, like we mentioned before software only to physical devices that incorporate software. And so AI is interesting because you can load it and AI model onto one of these physical devices, or you can have an AI model that's medtech based sitting on a server somewhere that can help doctors look or find particular cause or whatnot like that, based on symptoms that a patient may walk into, or maybe there's a device, like a needle, that allows that has an AI model on it that helps with injection or something like this. And so, these AI tools are becoming smarter. And I think that they help in the field of medtech and they require a different level of expertise with these inventions to not only create them because they're complex, but also to bring them to market because they require specific FDA regulations. Even the FDA right now is trying to figure out AI. They have approved several AI devices, but it usually comes down to, you know, is your AI device going to change in the near future because you're going to update the model? And if so, does that change it enough to require like a new submission? So the fact that AI moves so rapidly doesn't really mix well with the FDA's process of approving the device and having it set in stone at that approval state. [00:14:30] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. So where do you anticipate that this will take medical devices? Do you think it'll become so naturally ingrained in many of them that it's just sort of part of our reality, or do you think we'll still have those --what do we want to call them-- not AI functionality devices? [00:14:48] Ryan Phelan: Yeah, I think both will exist. You know, certainly a spectrum of these devices, right? Certainly there's surgical tools that exist now that have hundreds of years, or a hundred years, just in different, maybe better forms. So, those will stay, stick around. The AI assisted ones, I'm sure will find their niche, and live alongside the the existing tools. [00:15:10] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, absolutely. If you could narrow it down, what would be maybe your top piece of advice for a MedTech startup founder from your perspective, in your role? [00:15:23] Ryan Phelan: Yeah, I guess the number one would be again to, you know, make sure you're not giving away your crown jewels. Have your patent filed before you step out. If you're trying to raise money, just be careful that you're not sharing information publicly. You have to share with a potential investor, consider an NDA or if they won't sign an NDA, you can file a provisional patent application with the patent office. That shows that you have something on file before you talk to others. And as long as you describe the invention sufficiently in the four corners of your provisional application, then that's often the best way to protect yourself going out. So I think, as an IP attorney, that, that would be the number one advice that I would give a startup company in the medtech space. [00:16:10] Lindsey Dinneen: That's incredible. Thank you for that. That's really appreciated advice. So, it's so interesting because when I was looking at your LinkedIn profile, of course you have all of this incredible experience, and one thing actually really stood out to me, and that was that at least at some point you have been a and --I'm sure you've done this throughout your career multiple times-- but a pro bono lawyer for Lawyers for the Creative Arts. And I was curious about that and how you got involved, and can you share a little bit about that journey? [00:16:40] Ryan Phelan: Yeah. So LCA or Lawyers for the Creative Arts is an organization here in Chicago that deals with artists of limited means. You know, usually they have some type of basic issue that they want handled and it mainly deals with IP. Typically, I work on a different capacity for these because I see them as like kind of fun learning opportunities. I usually work in the copyright space and the clients that I work with need help either filing a copyright for maybe a piece of art that they've created, or maybe have a question about how their IP is being used or sold in some way, and they need to figure out if their IP has been infringed. And so, we'll work with them in a pro bono capacity to help write a letter to a company or to file a copyright registration and things like that. [00:17:28] Lindsey Dinneen: Well, as a, as my side thing as also an artist, I just want to say thank you because it is so great that you're doing things like that for the artist community. It is not always easy. So, oh, that's great, appreciate it. Yeah. So as you look towards your own future, what are you excited about say in the next year or two? [00:17:50] Ryan Phelan: Very excited to see how, I guess, AI is playing out with medtech. You're seeing regulations and guidelines coming out that The United States Patent and Trademark Office and also the Copyright Office about how these laws will impact artists. I've sat on a panel with the Copyright Office and the United States Patent and Trademark Office as they're thinking through these decisions and putting out these guidelines. There is questions about, is the new administration going to change things up with respect to guidance and guidelines that have come out. So, you know, artists are looking at AI is like a tool, like a paintbrush. And the law is kind of looking at it, obviously from the legal perspective and it doesn't seem like those two things are aligned yet. There's common in, in history that the law typically lags the technology by, you know, a decade or two or more. And so that's certainly the case with AI. For example, there is a famous -- I wouldn't call it a case-- but a denial of a copyright registration at the copyright office for a gentleman that had created an AI piece of artwork, won the Colorado state fair, I think in 2022, and tried to file a copyright registration, but was denied. And he told the copyright office, basically he had entered in 500 plus prompts in order to generate, or at least partially generate, this work of art, but was still denied . Not because of his effort, just because of the way the law is written under current copyright statutes. And so, things like that seem to be, at least from a policy perspective, incorrect. And so it'd be great to see exciting how this plays out. Will Congress care enough to change it or how will artists be impacted under these types of laws and policy considerations going forward? [00:19:35] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, absolutely. So pivoting the conversation a little bit just for fun, imagine that you were to be offered a million dollars masterclass on anything you want. It can be within your industry or part of your amazing background, or it could be about something entirely different. What would you choose to teach? [00:19:55] Ryan Phelan: Yeah. Wow. You know, I guess I would teach what I'm currently teaching. Cause I, I do enjoy the class I teach now. I'm at Northwestern, my alma mater, which I love. It's down the street from the office, get to go in same place where I went to school and teach the law and things that I do every day, which is patenting software inventions, including the medtech space. If I could get a million dollars to teach what I do now, that would be wonderful, in this hypothetical, so. [00:20:22] Lindsey Dinneen: Right. I love it. Excellent. And how do you wish to be remembered after you leave this world? [00:20:30] Ryan Phelan: Wow. I hope people remember me as someone who was fun loving and enjoyed tech and hopefully brought some information to the world that helped them in some way. [00:20:42] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, of course. And final question, what is one thing that makes you smile every time you see or think about it? [00:20:51] Ryan Phelan: Oh, wow. I guess there's a lot of stuff. I also like to do some type of sports. Currently, the ski season is ending, so I certainly enjoy skiing, so when I see or think about that's one of those things, and now coming is the golf season, so I transitioned into that. We're looking forward to some good weather here, finally, in Chicago. It was 80 degrees last week, and it snowed yesterday, so things are changing from golf to ski season, but one of those is always fun, so. [00:21:17] Lindsey Dinneen: That's awesome. That's fantastic. Yeah. If folks who are listening are in a position, would there be a way for them to get in contact with you and then how early should they do that actually? [00:21:31] Ryan Phelan: Yeah. There's multiple stages. They can get in touch with me anytime they want. You can always find me at our firm's website, Marshall Gerstein. Or if you want to, you can go to patentnext.com, just patent and the word next. com. That's my blog that I write on typically, and it has my contact information there, including my email address. [00:21:51] Lindsey Dinneen: Perfect. Well, thank you so much. Well, Ryan, it has been a joy to speak with you today. I really appreciate you sharing a little bit about your career and your insights, your advice, especially appreciate that for MedTech founders who might, you know, not quite know where to start with this whole legal element that they really need to consider. So I really appreciate you sharing kind of when and how to do that. And we're excited to be making a donation on your behalf, as a thank you for your time today, to Sleep in Heavenly Peace, which provides beds for children who don't have any in the United States. So thank you for choosing that charity to support. And thank you again so much for being here. This has been a wonderful conversation, and I just wish you the most continued success as you work to change lives for a better world. [00:22:41] Ryan Phelan: Thank you, Lindsey. My pleasure. Happy to be here too. Thank you for having me. [00:22:44] Lindsey Dinneen: Of course. And for our listeners, thank you so much for tuning in. If you're feeling as inspired as I am, I'd love it if you'd share this episode with a colleague or two, and we'll catch you next time.

We're joined by James Currier who explains how ‘network effects' shape our economies, tech, civilisation and how to master that to our advantage. James is a five-time Founder, an angel investor in DoorDash, Lyft, and Patreon, and a Founding Partner at NFX. Before becoming an investor, James was the co-founder and CEO of Tickle, one of the internet's first successful user-generated companies. From Metcalfe's Law to the rise of AI-powered startups, we explore how the invisible laws of networks explain why some companies scale exponentially while others fade out and why understanding these forces is key to building anything lasting in the 21st century. James has backed some of Silicon Valley's most iconic startups and coined frameworks that are now industry standards. From early internet marketplaces to AI agents and Web3 protocols, his insights map out how startups win by designing for virality, defensibility, and system-level scale. We dive into: • The 17 types of network effects; from marketplaces to expertise networks, and how to build them into your product. • The collapse of traditional moats in the digital age and what defensibility means in the era of AI. • Why companies like OpenAI and Salesforce are embedding themselves into users' lives to build lasting leverage. • The rise of “3-person unicorns” and how AI is accelerating startup formation and shrinking team sizes. • How founders can think about viral growth in a world where old playbooks (like Craigslist hacks) no longer work. • Lessons from failure: why even with network effects, execution is everything. • What AI bubbles mean for value creation and why James loves them. • How to survive and thrive in a noisy world: hitting it hard, identifying “technology windows,” and creating high-leverage product experiences. Key Takeaways from the Episode: 1. Network Effects Are the New Physics of Business: James breaks down why 70%+ of value in tech comes from companies that embed network effects and why founders need to build products that get stronger with every new user. 2. 17 Distinct Types of Network Effects: From classic telephone lines to software platforms and even Toyota's repair ecosystem, we explore the taxonomy of modern network effects, including marketplace, platform, expertise, and embedding effects. 3. Defensibility in the AI Era: With generative AI becoming a commodity, the real moat is not the model but embedding, data ownership, and network density. OpenAI's memory feature, for example, is a classic embedding play. 4. How Salesforce, Uber, and Facebook Reinforce Their Moats: Learn how these giants layered multiple defensibilities scale, brand, embedding, and networks to dominate their markets. 5. The “Technology Window” Model: Massive companies are born not from marketing innovation but from catching the right tech wave just as we saw with the internet, social media, and now AI. 6. What Most Founders Get Wrong About Virality: It's not about shouting louder, but about building value that spreads organically through “shrew-like” constant motion experimenting, iterating, and finding attention before the channel closes. 7. The Rise of AI-Native Companies: The best startups of the 2020s will be “AI-first,” doing with 3 people what used to take 300 reshaping business models, hiring, and even venture capital itself. 8. Why Founders Must Love the Craft, Not Just the Exit: Great companies are built by people obsessed with the product and the mission not just chasing valuation multiples.

Racism is ugly and must be fought. Not a controversial statement, right? What if racism rebranded itself as “anti-racism”? Such is what the Asian-American community is facing and no place has been more of a flash-point for that than Northern Virginia's Thomas Jefferson High School For Science And Technology. This prestigious STEM school has been at the center of a battle between the Virginia Department of Education's “anti-racism” directives from the Terry McAuliffe administration and the Asian-American parents that brought suit because their kids were denied admission.  Despite the US Supreme Court passing on their case last year, the Department of Justice has opened an investigation into the allegations. We sit down with Helen Raleigh, a child of Communist China who escaped to the US after coming to America as a college student. Her most recent book is titled “Not Outsiders” and she visited with us at Freedomfest in Palm Springs to talk about the quite racial prejudices the Asian American community faces.

Už se zdálo, že se koalice Spolu odrazila ode dna a začala pomalu dohánět v preferencích opoziční ANO. Jenže bitcoinová kauza si začíná vybírat daň a preference Spolu spadly. Jak to chce koalice zachránit? Hostem Ptám se já byla místopředsedkyně ODS a ministryně spravedlnosti Eva Decroix. Koalice Spolu měla až do bitcoinové kauzy důvod k radosti - v předvolebních průzkumech se jí totiž dařilo navyšovat podporu voličů. Podle dat agentury STEM z konce minulého ale aféra příznivý trend zabrzdila. Koalice oslabila o 1,2 procentního bodu na 20,4 procenta. Propad by podle analytiků mohl ještě pokračovat. Koaličním kabinetem Spolu a STAN sice kauza po vypuknutí otřásla, zatím ale krizi ustál. A nová ministryně spravedlnosti Eva Decroix (ODS), která ve funkci nahradila stranického kolegu Pavla Blažka, slibuje objasnění bitcoinové kauzy i celkové uklidnění situace na resortu. Postup úřadu by měl prošetřit externí audit. Ministerstvo spravedlnosti ve středu oznámilo, že do uplynutí stanovené lhůty se nepřihlásil žádný zájemce o jeho provedení. Resort proto termín přihlášek prodloužil do pátku. Ministryně Decroix chce auditora vybrat co nejdříve. Jak už dříve prohlásila, že veřejnost chce s výsledky prověrky seznámit do konce srpna. Se zadáním externího auditu, který zaplatí daňoví poplatníci, nesouhlasí opozice. Podle Pirátů by měla postupy úředníků zkoumat k tomu určená státní instituce, tedy Nejvyšší kontrolní úřad. Jaké systémové nedostatky odhalila kauza s bitcoiny? A nemělo se Spolu ministra Pavla Blažka zbavit mnohem dříve?--Podcast Ptám se já.

"Andrej Babiš se jako vždy neovládne. Nemůže si pomoct a rozpálí protikampaň víc, než je potřeba. Mělo by to strašlivější dopad, kdyby ve Sněmovně jenom seděli a řekli by: ‚Vidíte, co to je za lidi? Jestli nechcete, aby vám vládli takoví lidé, máte v říjnu možnost.‘Ale oni místo toho začnou zapalovat hranice, úplně to přepálí a blouzní, “ říká Michopulos k bitcoinové aféře. Jak zásadně ovlivní současné kauzy vládní koalice i opozice kampaň před letošními volbami do Poslanecké sněmovny? Jak se stranám kampaň zatím celkově daří? A který politik či politička je aktuálně největší hvězdou? Téma pro Marii Bastlovou, sociologa a šéfa výzkumné agentury STEM Martina Buchtíka a jejich hosta, podcastera a bývalého politického marketéra Petrose Michopulose v dalším díle speciálu Ptám se já – Rok voleb. Strany v červnu začaly více rozjíždět své předvolební kampaně, do jejich plánů ovšem zasáhla bitcoinová aféra i poslední rozsudek v kauze Čapí hnízdo. Dopad těchto kauz na preference voličů ale podle Buchtíka i Michopulose zřejmě zásadní nebude. Což potvrzují i výsledky předvolebních průzkumů z posledních týdnů. Podle dat agentury STEM by hnutí ANO aktuálně sněmovní volby vyhrálo s 31,2 procenta, tedy stejně jako před týdnem. Do podpory koalice Spolu se poprvé propsala bitcoinová kauza, zatím oslabením o zhruba jeden procentní bod na 20,4 procenta. Jako Zemanův BambergMichopulos současnou situaci kolem bitcoinové kauzy přirovnává ke skandálu před volbami v roce 1998, kdy Českem otřásly informace, že tehdejší šéf ČSSD Miloš Zeman se měl v německém Bambergu sejít s čechošvýcarským podnikatelem Janem Vízkem. Výměnou za peníze na kampaň a kompromitující materiály na politické konkurenty měl Zeman slíbit Vízkovi dosazení jeho lidí do vysokých státních funkcí.„Tenkrát jsem si myslel, že je to konec. Že si Miloš Zeman vyklidí kancelář v Lidovém domě. A nemělo to vůbec žádný dopad. Dnes, kdy jsou voličské tábory mnohem ostřeji rozdělené, pevněji ukotvené na jednotlivých stranách politického spektra, bude mít typ afér jako bitcoin na voliče ještě menší vliv než v roce 1998,“ myslí si podcaster.„Přispěje k tomu mimo jiné i to, že Andrej Babiš se jako vždy neovládne. Nemůže si pomoct a rozpálí protikampaň víc, než je potřeba. Mělo by to strašlivější dopad, kdyby ve Sněmovně jenom seděli a řekli by: ‚Vidíte, co to je za lidi? Jestli nechcete, aby vám vládli takoví lidé, máte v říjnu možnost.‘ Ale místo toho začnou zapalovat hranice, úplně to přepálí a blouzní,“ říká Michopulos. A naráží i na nedávné jednání Sněmovny o vyslovení nedůvěry vládě, které ANO vyvolalo:  „Celý ten džihád pro ně má jedinou obrovskou výhodu, že vlastně funguje jako bránění ve hře. Ve chvíli, kdy tohle rozjedete, obsadíte média tímto obsahem, tak znemožňujete vládním stranám pokračovat v kampani, kterou dělaly ještě donedávna a která vedla k mírnému nárůstu jejich preferencí. “„Koalici Spolu ta čísla sice možná neklesnou tolik, jak třeba očekává takový volič hnutí ANO nebo SPD, ale samozřejmě je to zastaví, protože měli docela dobře našlápnuto,“ doplňuje Buchtík. Kolik v Česku stojí dobrá kampaň? Proč by Andrej Babiš už neměl jít do žádné předvolební debaty? A s kým chce ve skutečnosti vládnout?--V bonusovém projektu pořadu Ptám se já – Rok voleb Marie Bastlová a sociolog Martin Buchtík glosují zásadní trendy a témata letošních sněmovních voleb. Sledujte na Seznam Zprávách, poslouchejte na Podcasty.cz a ve všech podcastových aplikacích.Archiv všech dílů najdete tady.

What does the Tour de France have to do with STEM education? More than you might think.This week, host Matt Kirchner is joined by Wall Street Journal columnist and cycling expert Jason Gay to unpack the world's most demanding sporting event: the Tour de France. They break down everything from team tactics to jersey competitions to the breathtaking drama expected in this year's race—highlighting the fierce rivalry between defending champion Tadej Pogačar and two-time winner Jonas Vingegaard.Along the way, they explore the surprising connections between elite cycling and STEM education, from aerodynamics and power output to mechanical systems, race strategy, and nutrition science.Listen to learn:What makes the Tour de France's 21-stage race one of the most captivating competitions in global sportA preview of this year's high-stakes showdown between two of cycling's most dominant ridersHow the science of cycling connects directly to STEM—physics, engineering, and human performanceThe advanced tech behind the race: radio comms, carbon fiber frames, power meters, and moreThe complex strategy and systems thinking behind every individual win3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. The Tour de France offers a powerful model for teaching systems thinking. Success on the course depends on how well teams work together—each rider has a role, and strategy unfolds in real time. Educators can use the race to illustrate collaboration, logistics, and decision-making under pressure.2. Cycling gives students a real-world application of STEM principles. Every stage involves physics, data analysis, mechanical systems, and energy management. From gearing ratios to wattage tracking to aerodynamics, the race mirrors the technical concepts taught in STEM and CTE classrooms.3. This year's race highlights how different approaches can lead to success. Pogačar races on instinct and momentum; Vingegaard relies on structure and consistency. Their contrast gives educators a chance to explore how mindset, preparation, and style impact outcomes—even in high-tech, high-performance environments.Resources in this Episode:Official website of the Tour de FranceConnect with Jason GayFollow Jason on X  |  Read Jason's articles in The Wall Street JournalWe want to hear from you!

Ever wondered how a single podcast jumps from a potential ten-billion-dollar Lakers cash-out to bunker-busting bombs and a rogue Coachman cameo? That's the opening volley. Buckle in before the first coffee sip goes cold. Kev walks in fresh off spinal surgery and drops his new gym gospel. Stem-cell magic, the photo that shut up every doubter, and one training tweak you'll steal before your next workout. The scale has never lied so loudly. Then the bell rings for real. One spear, one giant, and one very nervous champion. Kev maps out the scenario that could flip an entire pay-per-view, torches 35 soft punches, and reminds everyone why the heavy always sets the pace. Fan questions yank the show into the wild. Think autism parenting wins, Iron Dome footage, and a Florida Spam caper that costs more than some cars. One of those stories makes Kevin howl. Bet you guess wrong. Ask Nash signs off with a six-figure cologne heist, taped ribs flying off the top, and a quick check on whether Big Sexy is Riyadh-bound. The only real mystery left: who's actually next?

Send us a textWhat happens when your dream career no longer fits your life? Shannon Russell faced this question after a successful run as a television producer at MTV and in Hollywood. When motherhood shifted her priorities, Shannon made the bold decision to walk away from the entertainment industry and forge a new entrepreneurial path.Shannon's story breaks the conventional wisdom that we must stay in our lane. Coming from a blue-collar family where her parents worked the same jobs their entire lives, she was the first to attend college and leave her hometown. Her journey took her from broadcast communications student to television producer in New York and Los Angeles, living what many would consider a glamorous dream job.The birth of her first child changed everything. Suddenly, the demanding schedule, constant travel, and intense pressure of television production conflicted with her desire to be present for her family. Rather than seeing this as the end of her ambitions, Shannon viewed it as an opportunity to write a new chapter. Despite well-meaning interventions from industry friends and her husband, she trusted her instincts and began exploring entrepreneurial options.Shannon found her next act in purchasing a children's STEM education franchise—what she calls a "business in a box" that provided structure and support for a first-time business owner. Within two years, she ranked among the top three franchisees in the organization. As her business flourished, she discovered a passion for helping other women, particularly mothers, navigate similar career transitions.Today, Shannon runs Second Act Success, coaching women to leverage their professional experience to build businesses that provide both fulfillment and flexibility. Her new book "Start Your Second Act: How to Change Careers, Build a Business and Create Your Best Life" launches May 7th, and her podcast features inspiring stories of women who've successfully reinvented themselves professionally.Shannon's message is powerful in its simplicity: "Keep going, give yourself grace, and it will all work out." She encourages listeners to stop being sheep, pursue their unique paths, and believe in their ability to create multiple successful chapters in life. Ready to break out of your lane and start your own second act? Shannon's journey shows it's never too late to reinvent yourself.Support the showThanks for listening & being part of the Mindset Cafe Community.----------------------------------------------Connect With Devan:https://www.devangonzalez.com/connect----------------------------------------------Follow On Instagram https://www.instagram.com/devan.gonzalez/https://www.instagram.com/mindsetcafepodcastLet me know what topics or questions you want covered so we can help you achieve your goals faster.----------------------------------------------P.S.

Bitcoinová kauza je závažná a představuje velký problém. Na tom se shodne většina lidí v této zemi. Alespoň to dokazují výsledky průzkumu společnosti STEM. Není překvapením, že tento názor zastávají více příznivci opozičních stran. Ani podporovatelé koalice ji pochopitelně nezlehčují.

In this episode, I sit down with STEM extraordinare, Kathryn Hofman to debunk the myths that are associated with coding, gaming, and STEM in the classroom. Kathryn discusses how these tools fuel communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and problem-solving and how play can be a powerful way of learning. If you're on the fence about STEM education, this conversation will challenge your assumptions and inspire new classroom possibilities. Especially if you just got a call from your admin this summer stating “Guess what? You're teaching STEM next year” About Kathryn Hofman Kathryn is a STEM teacher and Digital Integrationist at Timbers Elementary in Humble ISD. She just finished her 15th year of teaching. A fun fact about her is she started in Deaf education and then moved to STEM. She also has an 8 year old daughter that will be going into 4th grade next year!

Show Summary:Natasha and Claire return to unpack an essential question for STEM educators: Should you be using the Design Process or the Engineering Design Process in your classroom? With a mix of practical advice and personal stories, they explore how each approach supports creativity, critical thinking, and hands-on learning. Whether you're a seasoned STEM teacher or just getting started, you'll hear thoughtful insights on when to emphasize open-ended design thinking versus structured problem-solving. Plus, the hosts dive into the importance of developing key “making” skills—like prototyping, tool use, and collaborative iteration—to empower students as confident creators and problem solvers. Tune in for a conversation that will help you make informed decisions to best support your students' growth as future innovators.Links from the Show:Related The STEM Space Podcast Episodes 8.

In the mid-1940s, a teenage June Bacon-Bercey saw the image of a nuclear explosion on the cover of Time magazine and immediately had questions. How would the particles in the mushroom cloud move through the air? What effect would this have on our atmosphere? To find the answers, she set out to study atmospheric science, just as the field of meteorology was coming of age.Her career would take her to places few Black women had gone before: the Atomic Energy Commission as a senior researcher; a TV news station in Buffalo, New York, as an on-air meteorologist; and even a TV game show. As a Black woman entering a STEM career at the height of the Civil Rights movement, June's goal was always to be a role model for women and people of color. And she marched through life to the tune of her favourite composer, John Philip Sousa, who just happened to help her answer the $64,000 question.

Today, Michael sits with Dr. Thom Lobe. Thom is the founder of the Regenevéda clinics in Chicago and Los Angeles, which focus on advanced hormone therapy, anti-aging medicine, and regenerative medicine. It was during his early childhood battle with Legg-Calve-Perthes that exposed Thom to a diverse range of doctors and hospitals, igniting his passion for the sciences. His work as an attending surgeon at the Shriners' Burns Hospital gave Thom a great understanding of advanced nutrition, metabolism, hormone therapy, skin care, and regenerative wound healing. In 2008, he opened Regenevéda, utilizing functional medicine and integrative practices that emphasize the relationship between the doctor and patient, the innate healing ability of the body, and the importance of addressing all aspects of an individual's life to attain optimal health.  Highlights from Michael and Thom's conversation include:  -A powerful moment Thom witnessed as a surgeon where prayer, not protocol, changed a newborn's fate, revealing the influence that belief and consciousness play in recovery -Stem cell therapy and how a teaspoon of your own fat could hold the key to reversing aging, disease, and inflammation -The types of stem cells, their benefits and potential, and how they're used in personalized medicine -Balancing hormones, miracle peptides, and the science behind modern vitality -The importance of the healing relationship between doctor and patient, and the need for compassion, baby steps, and real-life conversations when guiding patients toward change -From scalar waves to consciousness as the ultimate medicine, connecting the dots between spiritual alignment and physical well-being, and more! Next, Michael leads a guided meditation with a focus on health and vitality. Learn more about Thom's work at Regenevéda here https://regeneveda.com/.
