Podcasts about sunk costs

This week, we're digging into one of the most pressing financial crises of our time: student loans. After a five-year pause, the Trump administration has officially restarted collections on defaulted federal student loans, and millions of borrowers could soon face wage garnishment, reduced Social Security benefits, and even hits to their credit scores. Joining us is Jillian Berman, author of the groundbreaking new book, Sunk Cost: Who's to Blame for the Nation's Broken Student Loan System and How to Fix It. Jillian takes us behind the headlines, breaks down who is most at risk, and how to get your payments back on track if you're in default.  Resources & Links:

Steve and Jeff shared their thoughts on the Saints' rookie class and New Orleans' offseason drama cycle with Derek Carr. The guys reviewed Drew Brees' comments from Wednesday's episode of Sports Talk regarding Kellen Moore, Tyler Shough, and Carr. Matthew Paras, a Saints beat reporter for The Advocate, joined Sports Talk to discuss New Orleans' offseason rookie minicamp. Paras projected Kelvin Banks' landing spot on the Saints' offensive line. Steve, Jeff, and Charlie played their daily "Triple Option" segment.

In this week's update, Barney is forced to reckon with the loss of two hours worth of audio due to unavoidable tech issues. Instead, he provides a quick recap of the lost recording and looks forward to creating a much better episode.

When are determination, loyalty, persistence not virtues? When you're deploying them in a no-win situation. There are more landmines like this than you might think in your career landscape.  In today's episode, you'll learn how behavioral economics is keeping you stuck in situations that are aging like milk. Know when having grit is worth the payoff and when it's wasting your time. The more time, money or effort you invest, the more you feel responsible for achieving  success, and the less likely you are to abandon what's not working. When you feel like you should keep trying, also consider the cost of a missed opportunity. What didn't you do, explore, discover because you're pouring resources down the drain? What did you put at risk in terms of your stress level? Your health, your well being? Make sure that your expectations are realistic and clearly communicated Don't get so emotionally invested that you can't walk away. Think about milestones and success measures and have a plan for what happens if they aren't met. Ask "what's the best that could happen?" Then decide if that answer is good enough.

As a native New Orleanian, Mitch Landrieu knows a thing or two about crisis and recovery. He served as the lieutenant governor of Louisiana through Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005 and the compounding effects of subsequent storms including Ike and Gustav. In 2010, he was sworn in as mayor of New Orleans—just one month after the Deepwater Horizon explosion undermined the region's efforts to recover from five years of depopulation and economic decline.  Mayor Landrieu's experience working for the efficient restoration of New Orleans's critical infrastructure later led the Biden Administration to appoint him as an advisor on the national implementation of the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Otherwise known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), this bill has been the largest long-term investment in U.S. infrastructure since the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1965. It has prioritized and funded an array of essential, future-oriented projects throughout the country.  The aftermath of Hurricane Katrina demonstrated how the increasing scale of environmental disasters will expose vulnerabilities in the nation's aging infrastructure. Local leaders are thus seeking strategies that balance the needs of growth and economic development with the proactive management of current and future risks.  The work that Mayor Landrieu, city staff, and community partners undertook to steer New Orleans's recovery process away from bankruptcy and toward revived communities and a more secure built environment has provided a case study for policymakers and resilience groups around the world.  In part one of this two-part episode, Mayor Landrieu talks with Ten Across founder Duke Reiter about the personal and professional experiences that have influenced his views on equity and resilience and shaped some of the bold positions he's taken in governing. Part two will delve further into his views and outlook on contemporary governance.  We've taken a new approach with this episode, take a listen and let us know what you think by leaving a review on your preferred podcast platform.   Related articles and resources:  “Want to Understand the Future of U.S. Climate Resilience?

Episode Highlights: [00:18] The Power of Cleansing (In Business and Life)Brook shares insights from his two-month homeopathy cleanse, revealing why detoxing isn't just about what you add—but also about what you remove. Ryan connects this to spring cleaning in business and why eliminating what's not working is just as important as growth.[01:52] The Sunk Cost Fallacy: When to Cut Your LossesEver kept doing something just because you invested time or money in it? Ryan explains the sunk cost fallacy—why people hold onto bad strategies out of guilt—and why the best business owners cut their losses and move on quickly.[04:20] Relationships Over TransactionsIn an era dominated by digital marketing and ad-driven tactics, Brook reminds us that strong relationships are the ultimate business advantage. Ryan adds that great relationships mean you'll never go hungry in business.[06:17] Model, Then Modify: The Fastest Path to MasteryWhether in sales, leadership, or any skill, the key is to model what works first—then tweak it to fit your unique voice and business. Ryan shares how this philosophy applies to mastering sales scripts, marketing, and even music.[08:26] The Stoic Reminder: Be the Person You Aspire to BeBrook drops a powerful quote from Marcus Aurelius: “Waste no more time arguing what a good person should be. Be one.” Ryan and Brook discuss the noise of today's world and why action speaks louder than words.

New Orleans is an extraordinary place that has experienced more than its fair share of adversity. Living below sea level where the mouth of the Mississippi River meets the Gulf Coast, residents have become adept at mitigating a variety of water-related challenges, from the inundation of tropical storms and subsidence to the scarcity issues of saltwater intrusion.  There's a lot we can learn from the people and leaders of New Orleans. The city's pride in its wealth of culture was on display to the nation recently in the pageantry of Super Bowl LIX. But the spirit of New Orleans may be most evident in the way the city has pioneered a model of urban resilience that addresses future social, economic, and environmental risks.  Future-oriented action, with all its challenges, is the core focus of Ten Across and the focus of today's episode with Greater New Orleans Foundation CEO Andy Kopplin.  To commemorate their 100-year anniversary, the Foundation recently hosted a “Next 100 Years Challenge,” offering a $1.2 million investment in 10 different resilience project proposals across Southern Louisiana. The community has already seen significant returns on this initial investment, offering a compelling example for local and regional support of stronger communities in a changing climate.    Related articles and resources:   “New Orleans Was Called Resilient After Attack.

In many ways, modern American engineering was born on the Mississippi. In the early days of westward expansion, the continent's largest river basin presented both a vital resource for transportation, biodiversity and agricultural production and a complicated barrier.  The Army Corps of Engineers was founded in 1802, a year before the Louisiana Purchase. By the mid-1800s, Congress charged the Corps with improving transportation on the river to support the nation's burgeoning steamboat industry and riverine settlements. Military-trained engineers were enlisted to control the river, using brute force technology, into a predictable path to prevent flooding of communities and stabilize water levels for travel.  In the new book, The Great River: The Making and Unmaking of the Mississippi, award-winning investigative journalist Boyce Upholt questions the logic of believing it possible—or ideal—to control one of the world's largest and most powerful rivers for centuries. Taking a holistic and geologic view of the landscape, Boyce describes how the Mississippi River has continually changed paths over millennia and why this is necessary to the health of the entire delta, especially in a changing climate.  The book offers insight into the power and the fragility of many of the ecosystems on which we rely. Listen in as Ten Across founder Duke Reiter and Boyce Upholt discuss the intersections of the built and the natural environments, and the complexities of maintaining habitable places within essential yet hazardous geographies.  Relevant articles and resources:  Read more from Boyce:  Southlands newsletter  “Is the ‘Age of the Delta' Coming to an End?” (Knowable Magazine, 2023)  “The Controversial Plan to Unleash the Mississippi” (Hakai + WIRED, 2022)  “A Killing Season” (Winner of the 2019 James Beard Award for Investigative Journalism, The New Republic, 2018)  Learn more about the Mississippi Delta:  “Want to Understand the Future of U.S. Climate Resilience?

Many of the U.S. Navy's shipbuilding programs are currently running over budget and behind schedule, raising serious concerns about the Navy's future operational strength and the broader capacity of U.S. industry to scale production in the event of a larger conflict. This situation is particularly troubling, given that the United States once held a dominant position in global shipbuilding. So how did the U.S. reach this position, and who is to blame? Is it the Navy, the shipbuilders, private capital, the Pentagon, or even Congress? To unpack these pressing questions, we bring in our panel of experts to analyse the root causes of this decline and explore what can be done to restore the United States' shipbuilding capabilities.

"I see nothing as it is now." – A Course in Miracles Workbook, Lesson 9What if our perceptions are clouded not just by the past but by assumptions and biases that prevent us from truly seeing the present?In this episode of Love & Learn, we explore Lesson 9 from A Course in Miracles Workbook, which reminds us that our minds rarely see things as they truly are. Instead, we project our past experiences and assumptions onto the present, distorting our ability to engage with reality. By practicing this lesson, we begin to release these filters and open ourselves to a clearer and more authentic perspective.Key Insights:The Challenge of Unlearning: This lesson emphasizes that confusion and resistance are natural as we begin to undo our false perceptions. Understanding isn't required at this stage—consistent practice is. Each small step helps clear away the mental clutter that obscures our ability to truly see.Perception Is Distorted by Assumptions: Our perceptions are shaped by judgments, memories, and biases, preventing us from seeing the present moment clearly. By acknowledging that we “see nothing as it is now,” we create space to recognize and release the filters that distort our view of reality.The Power of Honest Practice: The exercise for this lesson invites us to look at familiar objects and practice the mantra: “I see nothing as it is now.” This practice isn't about doubting what's in front of us but becoming aware of how our thoughts and assumptions influence what we see. Honest, non-judgmental application of this idea helps us loosen these mental projections.Overcoming the Sunk Cost FallacyThis lesson ties beautifully to the concept of the "sunk cost fallacy," which is the tendency to hold onto past investments of time, energy, or resources, even when moving forward would be more beneficial. Just as this lesson encourages us to see the present without the weight of past filters, overcoming the sunk cost fallacy invites us to release attachment to past efforts and focus on the opportunities that lie ahead.Reflection for the WeekWhere in your life are you letting past investments—of time, energy, or beliefs—hold you back from moving forward? How can you release these attachments to see your present reality more clearly and make choices that align with your true self?Remember: Our perceptions are often distorted by the past, but through honest and consistent practice, we can begin to see the world—and ourselves—with greater clarity and love.Tune in and join us as we uncover how this practice can help us create a more peaceful, present-centered life!CONNECT WITH JESSICA FLINTWebsiteInstagram

In this insightful episode we delve into one of the most pervasive cognitive biases that influences our daily decisions: the Sunk Cost Fallacy. What is the Sunk Cost Fallacy? We explore how and why people continue to pour resources into failing projects or decisions simply because they've already invested in them. This fallacy can lead to suboptimal decision-making, keeping individuals and organizations stuck in unproductive cycles. Strategies to Overcome the Sunk Cost Fallacy: Focus on Future Benefits: We discuss the importance of looking forward rather than backward, evaluating decisions based on what they can contribute moving forward. Set Clear Goals and Limits: Learn how setting predefined criteria for success can help in making rational decisions to either continue or abandon a project. Embrace Losses: We talk about the psychological challenge of accepting sunk costs and how recognizing these costs as irretrievable can liberate decision-making processes. Seek Outside Perspectives: The value of external advice is highlighted. Sometimes, an outside view can offer the clarity needed to make unbiased decisions. Reframe the Situation: Discover how rethinking your current position as a new starting point can help in detaching from past investments emotionally and financially. Join us as we unpack these strategies with real-life examples, expert insights, and practical advice. Whether you're dealing with personal projects, business ventures, or even relationships, this episode will equip you with the tools to make better decisions by avoiding the sunk cost trap.

We sit down with anesthesiologist Kolleen Dougherty as she reflects on her experience of career burnout after two decades at a Level 1 hospital. Kolleen shares the internal struggles that kept her in a job that no longer brought her joy and how fear, loyalty, and the “sunk cost fallacy” contributed to her staying longer than she should have. She opens up about her journey to making the difficult decision to leave and the relief that followed. Kolleen Dougherty is an anesthesiologist.

The sunk cost fallacy is a cognitive bias where individuals or businesses continue investing in a project due to past investments, despite current costs outweighing the benefits. This bias often leads to irrational decision-making, influenced by factors such as loss aversion and emotional attachment. Understanding and recognizing the sunk cost fallacy can help improve decision-making by focusing on future costs and benefits rather than irrecoverable past expenses. Today's Stocks & Topics: WHD - Cactus Inc.

Is an unawareness of sunk costs sabotaging your communication efforts?   We often hold on to decisions, beliefs, and strategies simply because we've already poured time, money, or energy into them, even when we know they are no longer serving us well or are no longer aligned with who we are.   Understanding the role that sunk costs play in our decision-making — and how to work with them, not against them — is critical to clearer, more effective communication.    Whether in your personal life or professional interactions, this episode will give you fresh insights on how to cut through the noise and make more rational, impactful decisions, including three questions you should ask yourself.

This week's episode started light and bubbly but got quite serious towards the end because if your girls are not anything, they are multifaceted! The episode began with a recap of a friend of the pod, Dimma's wedding in Enugu. Dilemmas this week are all over the place, from a young man who has reconciled with his dad behind his siblings' backs to a young lady tired of her friends always having conversations about men and a young man trying to own FK's spot. The podcast ended with an honest discussion about life's sunk costs and how to come to terms with being unable to provide yourself with the life you wanted.

We're back from a long work- and life-related absence to fart around for a couple minutes trying to log in to our old accounts, and then we're off and running with the kind of meandering, half-baked musings you've all been missing lo these many months. That's right, New York 2140 is the topic of our next season (series?) and we spend this episode recalling where and when we were when the book was published and pondering what it might mean today. Here's a novel that takes both place and literature itself very seriously, in a really fun way. A massively ambitious work, drawing on the literary imagination of New York as well as characteristic KSR ideas about ecology, climate change, and capitalism, inflected here through the aftershocks financial crisis of 2007-08, including the Occupy movement and the double meaning of "liquidity," NY2140 finds itself post-Obama, mid-Trump, pre-COVID, pre-AI pump-and-dump "revolution," pre--the-shit-really-starting-to-hit-the-fan-regarding-climate-change (i.e., pre-massive summerlong forest fires that golfers still manage to play through but that block out the sun for weeks at a time from Calgary to Chicago). It's still a book that imagines America as lying at the center of a global project of capitalist hegemony, if we recall correctly, and the stickiness of capital as a force that organizes society and politics is something we'll be paying close attention to, as well as the way the novel imagines collective and personal responses to crisis. Is this an optimistic or a pessimistic novel? Was it then? Does it envision an alternative to the eco-fascist path we seem to be on in this decade of "dithering"? We do then talk about genuinely interesting things like gardening, Anya Taylor-Joy, Waterworld, weird Bryan Adams lyrics, and the relative quality of The Expanse and the joylessness of most contemporary TV, before dropping some really gratuitous spoilers about Red Mars. (This is NOT a spoiler-free podcast, for those just now joining). Anyway, we're back, we hope to bring you new episodes every week over the course of what promises to be a deadly hot summer, and we're mostly excited to be here!
