No company decides to fail. It drifts there one comfortable lie at a time. Kaz Nejatian took over Opendoor when it was just months away from bankruptcy and set out to rebuild it from the ground up. What happened next shocked everyone. Most turnaround stories are told years later, by the winner, after the ending is already known. That's why they always sound clean and polished. This one doesn't have an ending yet, and it's anything but clean and polished. Kaz takes us inside while it's still happening. We discuss why great companies drift away from reality, why truth has to matter more than feelings, and how competent people who don't believe in the mission quietly destroy an organization. He shares the principles behind rebuilding culture, eliminating bureaucracy, making faster decisions, using AI to flatten management, and creating teams that move with speed and ownership. One of the key things I learned in this conversation is that the comfortable lies that sink a company are the same ones that sink a career. ------ Chapters: (0:00) How Opendoor Came Back from the Dead (1:32) How Mismanagement Causes Atrophy (4:28) The Blueprint that Changed Opendoor (5:33) Rewriting the Book on Company Turnarounds (5:57) The People You Hire Is the Company You Build (6:31) Be a Nuclear Bomb of Truth (7:52) How to Change a Losing Company Culture (8:07) Commit to Truth Over Feelings (8:33) The Most Dangerous Kind of Employee (9:13) Key Principles to Turning Around a Company (11:59) Meetings Are a Bug in the System (12:30) Why It's Rude to Not Disagree (13:05) Say the Thing Culture (15:04) How AI Is Supercharging Opendoor (18:16) Most Powerful Mental Models (22:50) Why Remote Workplaces Don't Succeed (24:56) How Opendoor Killed Distractions (26:09) The Key to Being a Market Maker (35:20) How Companies Fall Off Course Over Time (37:24) The Power of Speaking Simply (43:27) Turnaround Lessons for Life (51:10) Excellence Is Capacity to Take Pain ------ Newsletter: The Brain Food newsletter delivers actionable insights and thoughtful ideas every Sunday.

What separates the business acquisition mentees who succeed from those who struggle? It is rarely intelligence, education, experience, or access to money. More often, it is the ability to turn motivation into discipline and discipline into focused, consistent action. In this episode, I explain why knowing what to do is not enough. I discuss the importance of taking meaningful action even when you do not feel motivated, evaluating what is and is not working, learning from others, and continuously improving your acquisition process. Consistent, disciplined action may not produce an immediate result, but it will normally outperform occasional bursts of tremendous effort. This principle is the foundation of the Bruce Whipple MDA: Motivation, Discipline, Action course. To Your Success, Bruce
In the latest episode of Hafta, the panel discusses whether political protest movements need ideological anchoring to succeed, sparked by a debate over the Cockroach Janta Party's (CJP) lack of clear ideological convictions.Poornima Joshi, the resident editor of The Hindu Businessline, argues that successful mass movements of the last decade – even ostensibly issue-based ones – have tended to carry ideological undertones. In addition to ideological moorings, Rinchen Norbu notes that mass protest movements also crucially push for structural, systemic demands that outlast a minister's resignation or reshuffle. The CJP's demands, he argues, don't meet that bar.The Anna Hazare movement comes up as a test case, with Abhinandan Sekhri disputing the claim that it had RSS backing, saying the initial support came from trade unions and communist parties, not the Sangh. A similar dynamic is drawn out through the farmers' protest, which Joshi argues benefited from ideological and organisational anchoring – support from farm unions gave it both structural backing and a wider anti-corporate framing beyond the farm laws themselves.The conversation also touches on how ideology can double as both an asset (organisational strength) and a constraint (limiting appeal). Anand Vardhan notes that once a movement positions itself in the opposition camp, its stated commitments – secularism, socialism, anti-corruption – tend to overlap with those of every other party making the same pitch, leaving it with a harder question to answer: what, then, is its actual product differentiation?Separately, Abhinandan notes that Newslaundry is lining up a follow-up round table with panellists holding more critical views of Hartosh Singh Bal's position on the film Satluj.

We at WKXL's NH Unscripted are always trying to find ways to entice our audience to go out and have dinner and see a show. Today we're going to introduce you (or re-introduce) to the shows and songs that got us all goosebumpily about seeing the shows live. And so we give you: “ The Shows That Got Us Off The Couch And Into The Theater”. First up is the overtures from the Broadway show during the years 1960-1969. Think “Camelot”, “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying”, “Fiddler on the Roof”, “My Fair Lady”, etc.(NH Unscripted airs M/W/F @ 9am on 1450AM/103.9FM Concord and 101.9FM Manchester)
Send Us A Message! Let us know what you think.Is the Reserve Bank's latest interest rate hike a sudden shock to the system, or is it actually the clearest sign yet that the economic fog is finally lifting? In this episode of the Week in Review, Debbie Roberts from Property Apprentice breaks down the wave of fresh real estate data for the week ending Friday, 10th of July, 2026. While the mainstream media headlines are busy dancing in panic over the central bank's shift to 2.5%, the underlying economic metrics tell a completely different story—revealing massive silver linings for both property buyers and landlords who look at the numbers with total discipline. The Five Core Topics Discussed:Topic 1: The Consensus OCR Reduction in Stimulus – Breaking down the RBNZ's unexpected decision to raise the Official Cash Rate by 25 basis points to 2.5%, why peak inflation has officially been slashed, and why interest rates may come down faster than bank economists previously projected. Topic 2: The Widening Regional Market Fracture – A deep dive into the latest QV House Price Index showing national values dropping slightly by 0.4%, while the market splits along strict regional lines with Christchurch outperforming Auckland and Wellington. Topic 3: Why "Risky" Properties are Outperforming the Broader Market – Analyzing the bombshell Cotality report revealing that flood-susceptible homes have gained 26.1% in value since 2020—outgrowing unaffected zones as cost-conscious buyers hunt out $100,000 upfront discounts. Topic 4: The Auckland Rental Market Winter Reset – Looking past the headline shock of an 10.9% drop in rental enquiries to reveal why tenant demand remains fundamentally strong year-on-year, and how available stock listings have expanded buyer selection by 10.9%. Topic 5: The Pervasive Fall of Household Interest Costs – Unpacking the latest Westpac household finances chart pack proving that household interest spending has successfully declined for a fifth consecutive quarter, heavily supported by a 3.8% climb in disposable incomes.

In this episode, Jason introduces the concept of before phase planning, the detailed preparation that must happen long before a construction phase begins. Drawing from his analysis of a $520 million mega project, he explains why pull plans, preconstruction meetings, look-ahead planning, and supply-chain management are only the foundation of successful execution. What you'll learn in this episode: How before phase planning reduces risk before work reaches the field. Why pull planning should begin three to four months before a phase starts. How preconstruction meetings prepare trade partners for their first work zone. Why six-week look-ahead planning is essential for removing roadblocks. How weekly work plans, production buffers, and supply-chain planning support reliable handoffs. Are you only planning the construction phase itself, or are you doing the detailed work required to make that phase successful before it begins?

Over half of us identify as generalists and most workplaces still aren't built for us.Siobhán O'Riordan, founder of Big Sea Strategies and author of Reframe, joins Ashish Kothari to make the case that in a world changing faster than any playbook, the "ubiquitous and yet unseen" generalist is exactly the talent leaders need.She shares the story behind her own pattern of "crushing it or crashing out," why fit beats effort every time, and three concrete moves any generalist can use to name their value and thrive in a system wired for specialists: know your value from the outside in, manage up to make it visible, and protect your range by saying no on purpose. A conversation for anyone who has ever felt like they didn't fit the org chart and for the leaders who keep losing their most adaptive people.What You Will Learn:Flourishing is a fit problem, not an effort problem.The same person, bringing the same energy, can thrive in one role and be shown the door in another. Before you push harder, examine the context: do you have the freedom, authority, and cover to do what you actually do well?Generalists are defined externally so define yourself first.Specialists come with built-in expectations; generalists don't. Ask five to ten colleagues what value you brought them, then learn to name how you think out loud: "I'm someone who sees patterns and gaps."Control your talents, or they will boss you around.A room full of ideas is a liability if you dump all 100. Know your strengths, bring the best three, and pair with people (and AI) who turn ideas into finished work. Generalists cannot work alone.In a fast-changing world, generalists lead adaptation.As "expert practitioners," they test, connect dots, and absorb the risk specialists can't. Think of the hospitalist who knows enough about every specialty to prioritize care for one whole patient.To thrive in a specialist world, get strategic.Know your value, stay connected to other generalists, and get smart about what you say no to. Don't fight gravity, build specialization where you must, and augment your gaps with technology and partnership.Episode Chapters: 00:00 Why fit matters more than effort01:08 Flourishing starts with self-knowledge03:40 What actually defines a generalist11:18 Expert practitioners and the hospitalist metaphor16:19 Crushing it or crashing out: Siobhán's story23:56 Context, freedom, and the right roles for generalists29:46 Turning curiosity into disciplined value34:36 How AI powers the one-person unicorn35:02 From seeing the pattern to naming it41:50 Thriving as a generalist in a specialist world44:44 Three moves you can make todayResources:Connect with the GuestLinkedIn: Siobhán O'RiordanRecommended Reading: ReframeHow Generalists Thrive in a Changing WorldConnect with the HostLinkedIn: Ashish KothariWebsite: Happiness SquadBook: Hardwired For HappinessTEDx: How to make flourishing your competitive edgeYouTube: Happiness Squad ChannelIf this conversation sparked something for you, please subscribe and leave a review, it takes 30 seconds and helps more people discover the show.
Most people think wealth grows by adding more hustle, more assets, and more ambition. Nell Derick Debevoise Dewey, known to many as Nell 3D, built her career on the opposite bet. A subtraction mindset for building wealth is the idea behind her Substack, Subtract to Succeed, and in this conversation with Syama Bunten, she explains why the approach works. Nell's money story began with a single childhood memory that held two worlds at once. One moment, she was having lunch at her great-grandfather's Fifth Avenue apartment. Later that same day, she was driving north to a Vermont campfire and tofu hot dogs with her mother's off-grid best friend. The split stayed with her through a decade of frontline humanitarian work in places like the West Bank, an executive MBA, and a marriage where she and her husband kept his wealth and her own distinct. The two chose access over ownership at almost every turn. She calls the trap catching so many people chrematistics, money chased for its own sake, and names the pursuit a kind of disease worth subtracting from a life. What emerges from that critique is her own redefinition of wealth and success, where legacy is measured in intellectual and social capital rather than a number in an account. A subtraction mindset for building wealth means asking what to release before asking what to add. The same clarity is what Wealth Catalyst is built on.

Send Us A Message! Let us know what you think.The election campaign has officially ignited a fierce debate over capital, wealth, and property taxes in New Zealand. In this episode, we dive deep into the facts behind Labour's proposed 28% Capital Gains Tax and the Green Party's proposed wealth and inheritance tax structures. We also crunch 70 years of historical real estate data to reveal the truth behind the 10-year doubling rule, look at why high-quality listings are essentially "on special" right now, and address the staggering new Inland Revenue data showing a massive spike in KiwiSaver financial hardship applications. The Looming Property Taxes: Labour has proposed a 28% Capital Gains Tax on realized residential and commercial property gains starting from a July 1, 2027 valuation day (excluding the family home currently). Meanwhile, the Green Party has proposed a 2.5% wealth tax on net assets over $10 million and a 33% inheritance tax on assets over $1 million. The Confirmed Banking Levy: Under Budget 2026, a new prudential levy on banks and insurers is expected to raise $290 million. Financial institutions rarely absorb these operational fees, meaning they will likely pass them down to consumers via higher mortgage interest rates. The 10-Year Doubling Rule Exposed: Historical data since 1950 reveals that nominal house prices doubling every decade only actually occurs about 55% of the time. The 2020s are currently on track to be the weakest growth decade in 70 years, sitting at just 10% value growth so far. The KiwiSaver Hardship Reality: Over 58,000 KiwiSaver members submitted financial hardship applications in 2025—a clean doubling of the volume recorded just two years prior. Don't get frozen on the sidelines by election-year fearmongering. Learn how to establish clear buying boundaries and build independent financial security.
After years of lobbying and advocacy work by 340B covered entities, the Illinois state legislature approved major 340B legislation earlier this year that protects 340B contract pharmacy access and prohibits drugmaker claims on data demands. Thomas Yu, system director of ambulatory pharmacy services at Sinai Chicago, discusses the campaign that made this legislative victory possible and what covered entities in other states can learn from this success.Joint Events Showed Unity Among Safety-Net ProvidersYu says two “340B Saves Lives” days of action in Chicago helped drive support for the legislative effort. Under the leadership of an association representing community health centers, the events brought together covered entities, patients, lawmakers, and others to show a united front on the issue of protecting 340B.The Story of 340B Resonated With Lawmakers, Not Numbers AloneYu reiterates that statistics and data can be helpful in making the case for 340B but that the story of 340B is what can swing votes. Focusing on community impact and how covered entities use their savings to benefit patients was much more effective at imparting the importance of legislation to protect access to those savings.Illinois Legislation Was a Compromise The legislation package in Illinois contains 340B reporting requirements for covered entities in the state. Yu argues that this compromise was necessary as the contract pharmacy and claims data provisions would have been a “nonstarter” without that addition. However, because the numbers go to the state for a one-time report and because drugmakers also must report data, he says the overall legislative package still makes for a big win for covered entities and patients in the state.ResourcesIllinois Legislature Delivers Contract Pharmacy Victory for 340B HospitalsProposed Medicare Pay Cut for 340B Drugs Would Be Much Deeper Than 2018-2022 Reductions

Morgan makes the case that civil litigation has grown precisely because government has failed to regulate — social media is a genuine threat to human wellbeing (especially for children), monopolies are squeezing consumers, and processed foods, he argues, are the new tobacco: extremely harmful and ripe for legal reckoning. He offers a candid, colorful assessment of his former firm member RFK Jr. — "smart and crazy," a man who falls down some rabbit holes but also champions legitimate causes — and walks through the thorny reality that vaccine makers enjoy total indemnity while sovereign immunity exists in some form in all 50 states. Morgan is refreshingly honest about the ethics of his own industry, arguing that ads gloating about settlement numbers are a mistake because the real goal of a settlement is to give someone back something they lost, not to celebrate a payday. The heart of the conversation is Morgan's plan to launch a new third party in Florida called "Common Ground," rooted in his conviction that the two-party system itself is what's fundamentally broken in America. Morgan argues that moderates should function as the tiebreakers in a polarized system — that picking up just a few seats could turn an uncommitted moderate bloc into a genuine fulcrum of power in Congress — and explains why he'd rather build something new than partner with the existing Forward Party. He handicaps Florida's political landscape with an insider's candor: Byron Donalds likely wins the governorship but it'll be close, the Charlie Crist party-switch playbook never worked, and he's genuinely unsure whether voters can find David Jolly credible after his own party change.. Morgan laments that too many people now enter politics for the pension and salary rather than public service, criticizes DeSantis for appointing cronies as university presidents, and argues age limits are overdue because government should be about the future and very few politicians remain effective past 70. Along the way he explains why he thinks Texas Democrats fielded a more viable ticket than Florida's (James Talarico, he says, simply has "it"), why Andy Beshear won in Kentucky, why charter schools are about money rather than choice, and why DeSantis's property tax proposal could become a Brexit-style case study in voters making decisions that make no sense once the consequences arrive.

Chuck Todd devotes much of this episode to a rich, personal reflection on the death of Senator Lindsey Graham at 71 — a figure who can only be understood if you separate the ideologues from the pure politicians, because Graham was unambiguously the latter. Graham always wanted to be in the middle of the Republican Party, treated his Senate seat as something as precious to him as a spouse, and was a genuine political creature who could nonetheless work with everyone, partnering with both Trump and Obama across his career. Chuck shares personal memories — interviewing Graham alongside John McCain, the two of them giving outsized attention to the Steele Dossier; Graham losing his parents in his 20s and raising his 13-year-old sister; even reassuring Chuck’s own wife about her worries over Trump — and argues that Graham, for all his capitulations, actually served as one of the few moderating forces on Trump. He lays out the very real political fallout: Todd Blanche's confirmation as Attorney General is now in serious jeopardy, Graham leaves a massive vacuum in the GOP conference, and his South Carolina seat could actually be competitive for Democrat Annie Andrews if the Republican primary lurches far enough to the right. From there Chuck draws a series of parallels between American and British politics — Labour returning to power on a promise of competence and stability, Nigel Farage (like Trump) trying to convert political fame into personal wealth, and the satirical candidate "Count Binface" holding up a mirror to a political culture that has become pure theater — musing, only half-jokingly, that America could use its own Count Binface. Chuck closes on a sober note about the U.S.-Israel relationship, which he believes is heading for a real retreat: he recalls how close the region came to a two-state peace two decades ago, how the collapse of that moment allowed radicalism to escalate on both sides until each could argue the other doesn't want peace, and points to Rahm Emanuel's recent speech in Israel — warning that Israel must articulate a vision for what comes after the war or risk isolating itself from younger and moderate Americans — as the sound of someone trying to save a political center that vanishes the moment people conclude moderates don't have answers. Then, John Morgan — founder of Morgan & Morgan, one of the largest personal injury firms in the country & author of "Life is Luck: Lessons From a Paperboy and How to Improve Your Luck" joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation about civil litigation, the failures of government regulation, and his plan to launch a third party in Florida.

Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to break down the messy build up and coalitions involved in the Spanish civil war, and what lessons modern America can take from it. He also answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and make a proposal for a change to the baseball Hall of Fame.

In this third segment of the third hour, host Charlie James interviews State Senator Lee Bright and businessman Mark Lynch regarding the political shifts following the death of Senator Lindsey Graham. State Senator Lee Bright emphasizes that South Carolina needs a true conservative contest rather than a party coronation, pointing out the absolute irony that the newly scheduled August 11th special federal primary will land on the exact date state lawmakers previously claimed was too expensive to open for redistricting votes. Following Bright, businessman Mark Lynch officially announces his candidacy for the vacant Senate seat on the program. Lynch, who previously secured second place behind Graham in the regular primary on an "America First" platform, shares that he felt obligated to honor his base of conservative grassroots supporters. The hour concludes with Charlie James breaking down the newly fast-tracked special primary timeline, noting that early voting will be compressed into a three-day window ahead of the August vote.

In this episode, host Bill Thompson sits down with Dr. Pius Kamau, a surgeon, author, and human rights advocate, to discuss his powerful new memoir, *Running with Lions*. Growing up in Kenya under the shadow of British colonialism and the violent Mau Mau uprising, Dr. Kamau's future was entirely uncertain. Yet, fueled by his father's unwavering belief that education was his "northern star," he once walked hundreds of miles to pursue school. Dr. Kamau shares stories of overcoming systemic racism, surviving a horrific car crash that killed two of his professors and scarred his hand, and building a 38-year career as a surgeon. They also discuss his return to post-independence Kenya, the complex realities of its newfound freedom, and his current mission combating human cruelty as a board member of the Coalition Against Global Genocide.Get your copy of Running With Lions by Pius KamauAs an Amazon Associate, Now I've Heard Everything may earn a commission from qualifying purchases.Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Pius Kamau and His Memoir 03:01 The Journey of Education and Overcoming Adversity 05:54 Racism and Its Impact on Life Experiences 08:51 Resilience and the Will to Succeed 12:06 The Aftermath of a Life-Changing Accident 15:08 Parental Influence and the Value of Education 18:04 Reflections on Post-Independence Kenya 20:49 Advocacy Against Global Genocide 24:10 Closing Thoughts and Future AspirationsGuest InformationDr. Pius KamauSocial:Facebook InstagramCoalitoin Against Global Geocide 1991 interview with Hank AaronFor more intriguing and engaging interviews each week, subscribe now on:Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. I teach my personal narrative clients and students that their rigorous “depth of inquiry” steers them way from writing surface-level, first-available answer drafts to crafting a memorable story. What do I mean? Nice personal essays often recount the superficial events of what happened and to whom. Maturing storytellers grow their essays into unforgettable narratives by deeply exploring why what happened to them matters, probing motivations, and reflecting on how those experiences shaped their world view. For example, a nice personal essay focuses on content. Facts tell the reader what you did, the places you went, or the most obvious outcomes of an event. A memorable story focuses on context—the situation or circumstances the facts took place in. Together content plus context create meaning. Meaning reveals your underlying emotions, struggles, doubts, and the personal truths you uncovered along the way. Story listeners are drawn to meaning like filings to a magnet. Tip: To transform a nice essay into memorable story, dig deep by asking yourself 5 probing "depth of inquiry" questions: 1. What did you desire? 2. What choices did you make to get it? 3. What were the consequences of those choices? 4. Did you achieve what you desired, or fail? 5. How did the experience change you? Story Prompt: Think of a time when you were offered an unlikely opportunity. You said “Yes! Come what may!” What happened next? Write that story and share it out loud! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us!

They explain that success isn't about being the loudest or most aggressive person in the room—it's about confidence, respect, and making genuine connections. From dressing well and maintaining good hygiene to understanding playroom etiquette and prioritizing consent, the episode offers practical advice to help single men feel more comfortable while creating positive experiences for everyone involved. Highlights Dress well and follow the club's dress code to make a great first impression. Good grooming and personal hygiene show confidence and self-respect. Focus on meeting people rather than trying to "score." Respect boundaries and always ask for consent before joining or observing play. Be prepared with safer sex supplies and drink responsibly. Confidence comes from authenticity, not persistence. Respectful behavior makes you someone couples want to interact with again. Key Insights First Impressions Matter: Dressing well and taking pride in your appearance helps build confidence and shows respect for the club environment. Connection Over Conquest: Genuine conversations create better opportunities than approaching every interaction with sexual expectations. Consent Is Essential: Respecting boundaries and asking permission are fundamental parts of swinger club etiquette. Preparation Builds Confidence: Bringing condoms, lubricant, and drinking in moderation helps ensure a more enjoyable experience. Respect Creates Opportunities: Couples are more likely to engage with single men who are patient, courteous, and attentive to everyone's comfort.

Episode 4065: Lea Genders reframes failure as an essential part of personal growth, showing how lasting behavior change comes from learning through setbacks rather than striving for perfection.
