Listen to JCO's Art of Oncology article, "The Man at the Bow" by Dr. Alexis Drutchas, who is a palliative care physician at Dana Farber Cancer Institute. The article is followed by an interview with Drutchas and host Dr. Mikkael Sekeres. Dr. Drutchas shares the deep connection she had with a patient, a former barge captain, who often sailed the same route that her family's shipping container did when they moved overseas many times while she was growing up. She reflects on the nature of loss and dignity, and how oncologists might hold patients' humanity with more tenderness and care, especially at the end of life. TRANSCRIPT Narrator: The Man at the Bow, by Alexis Drutchas, MD It was the kind of day that almost seemed made up—a clear, cerulean sky with sunlight bouncing off the gold dome of the State House. The contrast between this view and the drab hospital walls as I walked into my patient's room was jarring. My patient, whom I will call Suresh, sat in a recliner by the window. His lymphoma had relapsed, and palliative care was consulted to help with symptom management. The first thing I remember is that despite the havoc cancer had wreaked—sunken temples and a hospital gown slipping off his chest—Suresh had a warm, peaceful quality about him. Our conversation began with a discussion about his pain. Suresh told me how his bones ached and how his fatigue left him feeling hollow—a fraction of his former self. The way this drastic change in his physicality affected his sense of identity was palpable. There was loss, even if it was unspoken. After establishing a plan to help with his symptoms, I pivoted and asked Suresh how he used to spend his days. His face immediately lit up. He had been a barge captain—a dangerous and thrilling profession that took him across international waters to transport goods. Suresh's eyes glistened as he described his joy at sea. I was completely enraptured. He shared stories about mornings when he stood alone on the bow, feeling the salted breeze as the barge moved through Atlantic waves. He spoke of calm nights on the deck, looking at the stars through stunning darkness. He traveled all over the globe and witnessed Earth's topography from a perspective most of us will never see. The freedom Suresh exuded was profound. He loved these voyages so much that one summer, despite the hazards, he brought his wife and son to experience the journey with him. Having spent many years of my childhood living in Japan and Hong Kong, my family's entire home—every bed, sheet, towel, and kitchen utensil—was packed up and crossed the Atlantic on cargo ships four times. Maybe Suresh had captained one, I thought. Every winter, we hosted US Navy sailors docked in Hong Kong for the holidays. I have such fond memories of everyone going around the table and sharing stories of their adventures—who saw or ate what and where. I loved those times: the wild abandon of travel, the freedom of being somewhere new, and the way identity can shift and expand as experiences grow. When Suresh shared stories of the ocean, I was back there too, holding the multitude of my identity alongside him. I asked Suresh to tell me more about his voyages: what was it like to be out in severe weather, to ride over enormous swells? Did he ever get seasick, and did his crew always get along? But Suresh did not want to swim into these perilous stories with me. Although he worked a difficult and physically taxing job, this is not what he wanted to focus on. Instead, he always came back to the beauty and vitality he felt at sea—what it was like to stare out at the vastness of the open ocean. He often closed his eyes and motioned with his hands as he spoke as if he was not confined to these hospital walls. Instead, he was swaying on the water feeling the lightness of physical freedom, and the way a body can move with such ease that it is barely perceptible, like water flowing over sand. The resonances of Suresh's stories contained both the power and challenges laden in this work. Although I sat at his bedside, healthy, my body too contained memories of freedom that in all likelihood will one day dissipate with age or illness. The question of how I will be seen, compared to how I hoped to be seen, lingered in my mind. Years ago, before going to medical school, I moved to Vail, Colorado. I worked four different jobs just to make ends meet, but making it work meant that on my days off, I was only a chairlift ride away from Vail's backcountry. I have a picture of this vigor in my mind—my snowboard carving into fresh powder, the utter silence of the wilderness at that altitude, and the way it felt to graze the powdery snow against my glove. My face was windburned, and my body was sore, but my heart had never felt so buoyant. While talking with Suresh, I could so vividly picture him as the robust man he once was, standing tall on the bow of his ship. I could feel the freedom and joy he described—it echoed in my own body. In that moment, the full weight of what Suresh had lost hit me as forcefully as a cresting wave—not just the physical decline, but the profound shift in his identity. What is more, we all live, myself included, so precariously at this threshold. In this work, it is impossible not to wonder: what will it be like when it is me? Will I be seen as someone who has lived a full life, who explored and adventured, or will my personhood be whittled down to my illness? How can I hold these questions and not be swallowed by them? "I know who you are now is not the person you've been," I said to Suresh. With that, he reached out for my hand and started to cry. We looked at each other with a new understanding. I saw Suresh—not just as a frail patient but as someone who lived a full life. As someone strong enough to cross the Atlantic for decades. In that moment, I was reminded of the Polish poet, Wislawa Szymborska's words, "As far as you've come, can't be undone." This, I believe, is what it means to honor the dignity of our patients, to reflect back the person they are despite or alongside their illness…all of their parts that can't be undone. Sometimes, this occurs because we see our own personhood reflected in theirs and theirs in ours. Sometimes, to protect ourselves, we shield ourselves from this echo. Other times, this resonance becomes the most beautiful and meaningful part of our work. It has been years now since I took care of Suresh. When the weather is nice, my wife and I like to take our young son to the harbor in South Boston to watch the planes take off and the barges leave the shore, loaded with colorful metal containers. We usually pack a picnic and sit in the trunk as enormous planes fly overhead and tugboats work to bring large ships out to the open water. Once, as a container ship was leaving the port, we waved so furiously at those working on board that they all started to wave back, and the captain honked the ships booming horn. Every single time we are there, I think of Suresh, and I picture him sailing out on thewaves—as free as he will ever be. Mikkael Sekeres: Welcome back to JCO's Cancer Stories: The Art of Oncology. This ASCO podcast features intimate narratives and perspectives from authors exploring their experiences in oncology. I'm your host, Mikkael Sekeres. I'm Professor of Medicine and Chief of the Division of Hematology at the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Miami. What a treat we have today. We're joined by Dr. Alexis Drutchas, a Palliative Care Physician and the Director of the Core Communication Program at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School to discuss her article, "The Man at the Bow." Alexis, thank you so much for contributing to Journal of Clinical Oncology and for joining us to discuss your article. Dr. Alexis Drutchas: Thank you. I'm thrilled and excited to be here. Mikkael Sekeres: I wonder if we can start by asking you about yourself. Where are you from, and can you walk us a bit through your career? Dr. Alexis Drutchas: The easiest way to say it would be that I'm from the Detroit area. My dad worked in automotive car parts and so we moved around a lot when I was growing up. I was born in Michigan, then we moved to Japan, then back to Michigan, then to Hong Kong, then back to Michigan. Then I spent my undergrad years in Wisconsin and moved out to Colorado to teach snowboarding before medical school, and then ended up back in Michigan for that, and then on the east coast at Brown for my family medicine training, and then in Boston for work and training. So, I definitely have a more global experience in my background, but also very Midwestern at heart as well. In terms of my professional career trajectory, I trained in family medicine because I really loved taking care of the whole person. I love taking care of kids and adults, and I loved OB, and at the time I felt like it was impossible to choose which one I wanted to pursue the most, and so family medicine was a great fit. And at the core of that, there's just so much advocacy and social justice work, especially in the community health centers where many family medicine residents train. During that time, I got very interested in LGBTQ healthcare and founded the Rhode Island Trans Health Conference, which led me to work as a PCP at Fenway Health in Boston after that. And so I worked there for many years. And then through a course of being a hospitalist at BI during that work, I worked with many patients with serious illness, making decisions about discontinuing dialysis, about pursuing hospice care in the setting of ILD. I also had a significant amount of family illness and started to recognize this underlying interest I had always had in palliative care, but I think was a bit scared to pursue. But those really kind of tipped me over to say I really wanted to access a different level of communication skills and be able to really go into depth with patients in a way I just didn't feel like I had the language for. And so I applied to the Harvard Palliative Care Fellowship and luckily and with so much gratitude got in years ago, and so trained in palliative care and stayed at MGH after that. So my Dana-Farber position is newer for me and I'm very excited about it. Mikkael Sekeres: Sounds like you've had an amazing career already and you're just getting started on it. I grew up in tiny little Rhode Island and, you know, we would joke you have to pack an overnight bag if you travel more than 45 minutes. So, our boundaries were much tighter than yours. What was it like growing up where you're going from the Midwest to Asia, back to the Midwest, you wind up settling on the east coast? You must have an incredible worldly view on how people live and how they view their health. Dr. Alexis Drutchas: I think you just named much of the sides of it. I think I realize now, in looking back, that in many ways it was living two lives, because at the time it was rare from where we lived in the Detroit area in terms of the other kids around us to move overseas. And so it really did feel like that part of me and my family that during the summers we would have home leave tickets and my parents would often turn them in to just travel since we didn't really have a home base to come back to. And so it did give me an incredible global perspective and a sense of all the ways in which people develop community, access healthcare, and live. And then coming back to the Midwest, not to say that it's not cosmopolitan or diverse in its own way, but it was very different, especially in the 80s and 90s to come back to the Midwest. So it did feel like I carried these two lenses in the world, and it's been incredibly meaningful over time to meet other friends and adults and patients who have lived these other lives as well. I think for me those are some of my most connecting friendships and experiences with patients for people who have had a similar experience in living with sort of a duality in their everyday lives with that. Mikkael Sekeres: You know, you write about the main character of your essay, Suresh, who's a barge captain, and you mention in the essay that your family crossed the Atlantic on cargo ships four times when you were growing up. What was that experience like? How much of it do you remember? Dr. Alexis Drutchas: Our house, like our things, crossed the Atlantic four times on barge ships such as his. We didn't, I mean we crossed on airplanes. Mikkael Sekeres: Oh, okay, okay. Dr. Alexis Drutchas: We flew over many times, but every single thing we owned got packed up into containers on large trucks in our house and were brought over to ports to be sent over. So, I'm not sure how they do it now, but at the time that's sort of how we moved, and we would often go live in a hotel or a furnished apartment for the month's wait of all of our house to get there, which felt also like a surreal experience in that, you know, you're in a totally different country and then have these creature comforts of your bedroom back in Metro Detroit. And I remember thinking a lot about who was crossing over with all of that stuff and where was it going, and who else was moving, and that was pretty incredible. And when I met Suresh, just thinking about the fact that at some point our home could have been on his ship was a really fun connection in my mind to make, just given where he always traveled in his work. Mikkael Sekeres: It's really neat. I remember when we moved from the east coast also to the Midwest, I was in Cleveland for 18 years. The very first thing we did was mark which of the boxes had the kids' toys in it, because that of course was the first one we let them close it up and then we let them open it as soon as we arrived. Did your family do something like that as well so that you can, you know, immediately feel an attachment to your stuff when they arrived? Dr. Alexis Drutchas: Yeah, I remember what felt most important to our mom was our bedrooms. I don't remember the toys. I remember sort of our comforters and our pillowcases and things like that, yeah, being opened and it feeling really settling to think, "Okay, you know, we're in a completely different place and country away from most everything we know, but our bedroom is the same." That always felt like a really important point that she made to make home feel like home again in a new place. Mikkael Sekeres: Yeah, yeah. One of the sentences you wrote in your essay really caught my eye. You wrote about when you were younger and say, "I loved those times, the wild abandon of travel, the freedom of being somewhere new, the way identity can shift and expand as experiences grow." It's a lovely sentiment. Do you think those are emotions that we experience only as children, or can they continue through adulthood? And if they can, how do we make that happen, that sense of excitement and experience? Dr. Alexis Drutchas: I think that's such a good question and one I honestly think about a lot. I think that we can access those all the time. There's something about the newness of travel and moving, you know, I have a 3-year-old right now, and so I think many parents would connect to that sense that there is wonderment around being with someone experiencing something for the first time. Even watching my son, Oliver, see a plane take off for the first time felt joyous in a completely new way, that even makes me smile a lot now. But I think what is such a great connection here is when something is new, our eyes are so open to it. You know, we're constantly witnessing and observing and are excited about that. And I think the connection that I've realized is important for me in my work and also in just life in general to hold on to that wonderment is that idea of sort of witnessing or having a writer's eye, many would call it, in that you're keeping your eye open for the small beautiful things. Often with travel, you might be eating ramen. It might not be the first time you're eating it, but you're eating it for the first time in Tokyo, and it's the first time you've had this particular ingredient on it, and then you remember that. But there's something that we're attuned to in those moments, like the difference or the taste, that makes it special and we hold on to it. And I think about that a lot as a writer, but also in patient care and having my son with my wife, it's what are the special small moments to hold on to and allowing them to be new and beautiful, even if they're not as large as moving across the country or flying to Rome or whichever. I think there are ways that that excitement can still be alive if we attune ourselves to some of the more beautiful small moments around us. Mikkael Sekeres: And how do we do that as doctors? We're trained to go into a room and there's almost a formula for how we approach patients. But how do you open your mind in that way to that sense of wonderment and discovery with the person you're sitting across from, and it doesn't necessarily have to be medical? One of the true treats of what we do is we get to meet people from all backgrounds and all walks of life, and we have the opportunity to explore their lives as part of our interaction. Dr. Alexis Drutchas: Yeah, I think that is such a great question. And I would love to hear your thoughts on this too. I think for me in that sentence that you mentioned, sitting at that table with sort of people in the Navy from all over the world, I was that person to them in the room, too. There was some identity there that I brought to the table that was different than just being a kid in school or something like that. To answer your question, I wonder if so much of the challenge is actually allowing ourselves to bring ourselves into the room, because so much of the formula is, you know, we have these white coats on, we have learners, we want to do it right, we want to give excellent care. There's there's so many sort of guards I think that we put up to make sure that we're asking the right questions, we don't want to miss anything, we don't want to say the wrong thing, and all of that is true. And at the same time, I find that when I actually allow myself into the room, that is when it is the most special. And that doesn't mean that there's complete countertransference or it's so permeable that it's not in service of the patient. It just means that I think when we allow bits of our own selves to come in, it really does allow for new connections to form, and then we are able to learn about our patients more, too. With every patient, I think often we're called in for goals of care or symptom management, and of course I prioritize that, but when I can, I usually just try to ask a more open-ended question, like, "Tell me about life before you came to the hospital or before you were diagnosed. What do you love to do? What did you do for work?" Or if it's someone's family member who is ill, I'll ask the kids or family in the room, "Like, what kind of mom was she? You know, what special memory you had?" Just, I get really curious when there's time to really understand the person. And I know that that's not at all new language. Of course, we're always trying to understand the person, but I just often think understanding them is couched within their illness. And I'm often very curious about how we can just get to know them as people, and how humanizing ourselves to them helps humanize them to us, and that back and forth I think is like really lovely and wonderful and allows things to come up that were totally unexpected, and those are usually the special moments that you come home with and want to tell your family about or want to process and think about. What about you? How do you think about that question? Mikkael Sekeres: Well, it's interesting you ask. I like to do projects around the house. I hate to say this out loud because of course one day I'll do something terrible and everyone will remember this podcast, but I fancy myself an amateur electrician and plumber and carpenter and do these sorts of projects. So I go into interactions with patients wanting to learn about their lives and how they live their lives to see what I can pick up on as well, how I can take something out of that interaction and actually use it practically. My father-in-law has this phrase he always says to me when a worker comes to your house, he goes, he says to me, "Remember to steal with your eyes." Right? Watch what they do, learn how they fix something so you can fix it yourself and you don't have to call them next time. So, for me it's kind of fun to hear how people have lived their lives both within their professions, and when I practiced medicine in Cleveland, there were a lot of farmers and factory workers I saw. So I learned a lot about how things are made. But also about how they interact with their families, and I've learned a lot from people I've seen who were just terrific dads and terrific moms or siblings or spouses. And I've tried to take those nuggets away from those interactions. But I think you can only do it if you open yourself up and also allow yourself to see that person's humanity. And I wonder if I can quote you to you again from your essay. There's another part that I just loved, and it's about how you write about how a person's identity changes when they become a patient. You write, "And in that moment the full weight of what he had lost hit me as forcefully as a cresting wave. Not just the physical decline, but the profound shift in identity. What is more, we all live, me included, so precariously at this threshold. In this work, it's impossible not to wonder, what will it be like when it's me? Will I be seen as someone who's lived many lives, or whittled down only to someone who's sick?" Can you talk a little bit more about that? Have you been a patient whose identity has changed without asking you to reveal too much? Or what about your identity as a doctor? Is that something we have to undo a little bit when we walk in the room with the stethoscope or wearing a white coat? Dr. Alexis Drutchas: That was really powerful to hear you read that back to me. So, thank you. Yeah, I think my answer here can't be separated from the illness I faced with my family. And I think this unanimously filters into the way in which I see every patient because I really do think about the patient's dignity and the way medicine generally, not always, really does strip them of that and makes them the patient. Even the way we write about "the patient said this," "the patient said that," "the patient refused." So I generally very much try to have a one-liner like, "Suresh is a X-year-old man who's a barge captain from X, Y, and Z and is a loving father with a," you know, "period. He comes to the hospital with X, Y, and Z." So I always try to do that and humanize patients. I always try to write their name rather than just "patient." I can't separate that out from my experience with my family. My sister six years ago now went into sudden heart failure after having a spontaneous coronary artery dissection, and so immediately within minutes she was in the cath lab at 35 years old, coding three times and came out sort of with an Impella and intubated, and very much, you know, all of a sudden went from my sister who had just been traveling in Mexico to a patient in the CCU. And I remember desperately wanting her team to see who she was, like see the person that we loved, that was fighting for her life, see how much her life meant to us. And that's not to say that they weren't giving her great care, but there was something so important to me in wanting them to see how much we wanted her to live, you know, and who she was. It felt like there's some important core to me there. We brought pictures in, we talked about what she was living for. It felt really important. And I can't separate that out from the way in which I see patients now or I feel in my own way in a certain way what it is to lose yourself, to lose the ability to be a Captain of the ship, to lose the ability to do electric work around the house. So much of our identity is wrapped up in our professions and our craft. And I think for me that has really become forefront in the work of palliative care and in and in the teaching I do and in the writing I do is how to really bring them forefront and not feel like in doing that we're losing our ability to remain objective or solid in our own professional identities as clinicians and physicians. Mikkael Sekeres: Well, I think that's a beautiful place to end here. I can only imagine what an outstanding physician and caregiver you are also based on your writing and how you speak about it. You just genuinely come across as caring about your patients and your family and the people you have interactions with and getting to know them as people. It has been again such a treat to have Dr. Alexis Drutchas here. She is Director of the Core Communication Program at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School to discuss her article, "The Man at the Bow."

In this episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Suresh Balaji and Dave Wallace are joined by Matt Smolin, co-founder and CEO of Hang.xyz, to explore the future of loyalty and membership programmes in a Web3 world.Matt shares his entrepreneurial journey from trading desks in finance to building consumer tech, and ultimately pivoting into Hang after an earlier business was disrupted by COVID-19. He explains how Hang was founded in late 2021 with the mission to reinvent customer engagement through NFT-powered loyalty—creating membership systems that are more flexible, interoperable, and rewarding than traditional models.The discussion covers the shortcomings of legacy loyalty programmes—closed systems, extractive models, lack of interoperability—and how Web3 technology can address them. With NFTs, loyalty becomes portable, tradable, and even tiered in ways that benefit both consumers and brands. Dave and Suresh explore scenarios ranging from airline miles you could rent out, to employee loyalty schemes validated on-chain, to interoperable memberships that travel with you across platforms and experiences.Matt stresses that the value proposition for brands isn't “NFTs” as a buzzword but solving real problems: rising customer acquisition costs, fragmented data, and the need to build lasting community-driven engagement. He outlines practical paths for CMOs—from layering Web3 onto existing loyalty programmes, to experimenting with VIP segments, to creating new models entirely off-chain-compatible but Web3-enabled.The episode also touches on the regulatory and financial implications of tokenised loyalty, the challenges of moving liabilities off balance sheets, and the potential role of agencies and consultancies in scaling adoption.For marketers, the message is clear: loyalty is evolving from transactional points systems to community-driven value exchanges, where customers become stakeholders rather than just consumers. Web3-powered loyalty isn't just the future—it's already here.
In this episode of What The Web 3, hosts Dave Wallace and Suresh Balaji tackle the seismic shifts in journalism and digital media brought on by generative AI, deepfakes, and Web3. Their guest is Harry Burt, Director of Business Innovation and Transformation at News UK, who shares frontline insights into how one of the world's leading media groups is responding to disruptive technologies.Harry explains how News UK—and the wider News Corp group—moved beyond early NFT experiments to focus strategically on distributed web components, content authentication, and ownership models. He addresses industry scepticism around Web3, stressing the urgency for media companies to rethink value chains and reclaim control of intellectual property and audience data that platforms often monetise at creators' expense.The conversation then turns to the existential challenges posed by generative AI. From paywalled journalism being scraped to train large language models, to the proliferation of misinformation and the lack of fair compensation for creators, Harry describes these as “mega tsunami” problems threatening publishers both large and small.Collaboration, he argues, is the only way forward. Harry reveals how News UK is spearheading efforts to establish open standards for content provenance, using blockchain to build transparent ledgers that improve attribution in search engines and provide regulators and platforms with trustworthy signals of authenticity.Yet the episode also highlights opportunities. Generative AI is already proving useful inside newsrooms—re-tagging archives, automating workflows, and making research more accessible through natural language interfaces. These tools can free journalists to focus on impactful, investigative work that underpins democracy.Looking further ahead, the hosts and Harry explore the role of immersive technologies like AR, VR, and the metaverse in creating “experiential news reporting.” While cautious about the pace of adoption, Harry sees long-term potential in enabling audiences to engage with stories in 3D, interactive environments.This episode is a dynamic primer on the urgent threats and emerging opportunities facing modern media—showing how journalism can protect its integrity in the AI era while exploring the next frontier of news through innovation and collaboration.
In this episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Lars and Suresh sit down with Ray Chan, CEO and co-founder of 9GAG and MemeLand. Known for his sharp wit and bold vision, Ray shares the story of building one of the internet's most iconic meme platforms and why he's now leading its transition into Web3.Ray reflects on his personal journey—from law school to TV anchoring, to launching 9GAG with friends during the early days of Web 2.0. He explains how community has always been at the heart of 9GAG, making the shift to Web3 a natural progression. With MemeLand, Ray is experimenting with NFTs and decentralised ownership, giving power back to communities while reinventing the brand for the future.The conversation covers the challenges of building in Web3: managing fast-changing communities, sustaining engagement beyond hype cycles, balancing trust with delivery, and staying true to long-term vision in a volatile space. Ray stresses the importance of being “community-informed but not community-driven,” likening leadership in Web3 to running a mini public company with thousands of vocal shareholders.For marketers, Ray offers clear advice: Web3 is not just a marketing stunt or a cash grab. True value lies in creating genuine utility, rewarding loyalty, and treating community members as stakeholders rather than consumers. He encourages CMOs to learn directly from operators who have successfully launched projects and to think beyond gimmicks to long-term value creation.This episode is packed with practical insights on community-building, brand reinvention, and the evolving relationship between businesses and their audiences in the Web3 era.
In this episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Suresh and Dave Wallace are joined by Adam White – now known as Phoenix – entrepreneur, visionary, and founder of Edge.gg and the new project Spirit Tribe.Phoenix shares his journey from sports law and esports innovation to building Edge, a platform often described as the “Uber for influencers,” designed to validate and monetise creator content. He reflects on the evolution of Edge, its acquisition journey, and the role of Web3 in unlocking authenticity, ownership, and trust for creators and brands.The conversation then shifts to Phoenix's personal transformation and his latest venture, Spirit Tribe. This bold initiative blends community building, spirituality, and Web3 technology, aiming to create global tribes where members share resources, embrace authenticity, and live beyond fear. With NFTs, festivals, and shared land ownership, Spirit Tribe seeks to redefine wealth and community in a post-matrix world.Key themes explored include authenticity as the foundation of Web3 marketing, the power of community over audience, the potential of NFTs as enablers of identity and ownership, and the intersection of spirituality, sustainability, and technology.The episode offers marketers a thought-provoking look at how Web3 can foster communities with genuine purpose – and why the future of identity, belonging, and brand engagement may lie well beyond traditional frameworks.
In this episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Suresh and Dave Wallace are joined by Adam Buehler, Senior Vice President of Creative Technology at Digitas North America. Together, they dive into the fast-moving worlds of generative AI and Web3, exploring how these two transformative technologies are beginning to converge.Adam outlines the rapid rise of generative AI—its “iPhone moment”—and explains why tools like ChatGPT and MidJourney are changing the way marketers, brands, and creatives think about content. From automating everyday tasks to reimagining search, art, and design, generative AI is no longer speculative: it is disrupting industries in real time.The discussion also touches on the risks: deepfakes, hallucinations, and the erosion of trust in digital content. Adam explains how blockchain and Web3 technologies could provide solutions, particularly through cryptographic provenance and content authentication standards such as C2PA, which could safeguard society against a collapse of shared reality.Throughout, the trio debate how AI might reshape the agency model, whether brands should set new guardrails on creative content, and how marketers can responsibly harness these tools. A recurring theme is partnership: machines won't replace humans, but humans who use machines will outpace those who don't.This is a thought-provoking conversation for marketers, creatives, and technologists alike—highlighting both the promise and peril of the coming collision between AI and Web3.
In this episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Dave Wallace and Suresh Balaji are joined by Angela Dalton, founder and CEO of Signum Growth Capital, to explore the intersection of gaming, NFTs, and Web3—and what it means for marketers.Angela shares her career journey from equities and investment banking to becoming one of the first esports analysts, before founding Signum to advise at the crossroads of culture and crypto. She explains how video games have long served as a proving ground for digital ownership, with skins and in-game items functioning as early forms of social capital. NFTs, she argues, are simply a natural extension of behaviours gamers already understand.The conversation covers the explosive growth of digital assets in gaming, the rise (and pitfalls) of play-to-earn models, and why the future lies in “play and own”—where identity, property rights, and interoperability across platforms reshape how people engage online. Angela discusses examples such as Burberry's Sharky drop in Blankos and Balenciaga's collaboration with Fortnite, showing how brands can enter authentically if they align with existing gamer behaviours.Beyond gaming, Angela highlights broader structural shifts: the need for interoperability across blockchains, the role of Polkadot in enabling cross-chain communication, and the opportunity for marketers to simplify and humanise Web3 education. She argues that Web3 isn't just about technology—it's about building fairer systems where creators, communities, and companies share value more equitably.For marketers, the key takeaway is clear: Web3 is not just a channel, but a cultural shift. The brands that succeed will be those that respect community norms, embrace transparency, and help bridge the gap between complex technology and everyday human behaviour.
In this episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Dave Wallace and Suresh Balaji are joined by Tim Holdorsson, founder of Lunar Strategy, to discuss how marketing in Web3 differs radically from traditional models—and why education and community are now the most powerful tools in the space.Tim shares his journey from investing in crypto during 2017's boom and bust to launching Lunar Strategy in Lisbon in 2019. Spotting a gap between traditional agencies and crypto-native projects, he built one of the first agencies focused purely on Web3, NFTs, and crypto marketing. Today, Lunar Strategy has grown into a 16-person team working with clients worldwide.The conversation explores the unique dynamics of Web3 marketing: the primacy of storytelling in digital-first ecosystems, the centrality of platforms like Twitter, Discord, and Telegram, and the regulatory complexities of accepting crypto payments. Tim also explains why community management has become the cornerstone of successful projects, requiring skilled moderators who can maintain morale and trust even when markets are down.Education is another major theme. Tim outlines Lunar Strategy's upcoming Web3 marketing course, built directly from real-world experience. Covering influencer marketing, PR, community building, paid advertising, partnerships, and social media strategies, the course is designed to professionalise Web3 marketing and prevent brands from repeating common mistakes.Looking ahead, Tim predicts more big brands and influencers will enter the space as the hype subsides, with mainstream adoption driven by platforms like Instagram and Facebook integrating NFT tagging. He argues that now is the best time for cautious but serious players to move in, laying sustainable foundations rather than chasing quick wins.This is an eye-opening conversation for marketers seeking to understand not just the opportunities of Web3, but also the pitfalls—and why building resilient communities and investing in education will be critical to long-term success.
In this episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Dave Wallace and Suresh Balaji are joined by Hrish Lotlikar, co-founder and CEO of Superworld, to explore the bold vision of building a virtual layer over the entire planet.Hrish shares his extraordinary journey—from investment banking and venture capital in emerging markets to launching startups in AR, VR, gaming, and entertainment alongside Hollywood names like Michael Bay. These experiences inspired the creation of Superworld, a platform that allows users to own, create, and monetise virtual real estate mapped directly onto the physical world.The conversation explores how Superworld combines gaming mechanics with real-world relevance: users can “put down roots” in virtual plots of land linked to real geography, while brands can build immersive experiences, experiment with new products, or extend customer engagement into hybrid physical-digital spaces. Unlike purely virtual worlds, Superworld's foundation on Earth ensures durability and relevance—your virtual assets retain value because they're tied to real locations.Hrish also emphasises Superworld's mission to be a life-enhancing platform, not a life-escape platform. Inspired by the lessons of The Social Dilemma, the vision is to use AR, VR, and Web3 technologies to enrich people's real lives rather than distract from them—what Hrish calls “live to earn”. Accessibility is key: Superworld is designed to be hardware-agnostic and interoperable across web, mobile, wearables, and future devices.This inspiring discussion highlights how Web3 can reshape ownership, identity, and community—not by drawing people away from reality, but by enhancing how we live, connect, and create in the world around us.
In this episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Suresh Balaji and Dave Wallace are joined by Diego Borgo, brand consultant, advisor, NFT collector, and educator, to explore what it takes for brands to enter the metaverse responsibly and meaningfully.Diego shares his journey from 18 years in digital marketing to advising Fortune 500 companies like Adidas, Unilever, Volkswagen, and Salesforce on Web3 strategy. His work spans three pillars: consulting global brands on how to engage with Web3, advising NFT-native projects at the cutting edge of innovation, and educating through panels, keynotes, and his new Nas Academy Masterclass on how brands should enter the metaverse.The conversation highlights a critical mentality shift—from consumers to co-creators, from one-way communication to community collaboration. Diego explains how leading brands are already thinking in terms of perpetual royalties for artists, shared ownership models, and “win–win–win” outcomes where brands, creators, and communities all benefit.They also discuss the challenges of user experience, onboarding, and community engagement. Discord, while central today, is seen as a “necessary evil,” with better solutions on the horizon. Diego emphasises the importance of frictionless entry points—like fiat payments and digital collectibles—to bring mainstream audiences into Web3 without overwhelming them with technical barriers.For marketers, this episode underscores the opportunity—and responsibility—of embracing Web3 as more than a technology trend. It is a cultural shift towards decentralisation, collaboration, and community-powered brand building. Diego argues that the brands willing to adapt will not only survive this transition but may redefine what brand power means in the digital age.
In this inaugural episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Dave Wallace and Suresh Balaji are joined by Chris Clark, former Group Head of Marketing at HSBC, to reflect on the lessons of Web1 and Web2 and explore what Web3 means for marketers.Suresh introduces the mission of the Web3 Marketing Association: to help marketers navigate a future shaped by decentralisation, community ownership, and new models of engagement. He outlines how Web3 could upend traditional marketing tools—cookies, platform partnerships, and first-party data—while opening new opportunities for co-creation, token-enabled loyalty, and gamified brand experiences.Chris draws parallels with past seismic shifts, comparing today's transition to the moment humanity moved from barter to money. He recalls the early awe of Web1 (“changing a car's colour on a Land Rover website”) and the mobile revolution of Web2, before stressing that Web3 has the potential to rebalance power away from corporations and towards communities. For him, marketers must be the bridge between customers and corporations—representing users in boardrooms and shaping rather than passively receiving the next internet era.The conversation ranges from the role of gaming and digital ownership to the impact of Web3 on sustainability, healthcare, and education. Both Chris and Suresh emphasise the importance of doing, not just observing—encouraging marketers to experiment with wallets, NFTs, and DAOs to gain first-hand understanding.This episode sets the tone for the series: Web3 is not just a technology shift but a cultural one. Marketers have a rare opportunity—and responsibility—to shape a more democratic, customer-centred digital future.
This week, hosts Amit Kamath and Mihir Vasavda turn their attention to the World Athletics Championships, scheduled for September 13–21. Neeraj Chopra will lead a 12-member Indian team and, notably, return to the site where he transformed from just another athlete into a javelin legend.

In this Telugu Podcast episode, we had an eye-opening conversation with Suresh Kochattil garu, who's been in the media industry for 40 yrs & 17 yrs of experience at Times of India in various levels. As the world drowns in breaking news, social media headlines, and sensationalism, This episode takes you through the actual machinery that runs Indian media. Starting with a simple question: is the printing press as dramatic as it's shown in the movies? The truth, as always, is far more layered. From how news is selected, printed, and distributed, to why newspaper stories cut off after 12 PM, we explored the real-time walkthrough of what really goes on behind those bold headlines.The episode then dives into one of the most defining moments of Indian media urgency—the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi in Sriperumbudur. How that single moment changed reporting patterns and led to a media that thrives on speed rather than depth. But this conversation is not just about journalism. It's about truth, control, perception, and the massive war of narratives we're all part of, knowingly or not.We explored how India often wins on the battlefield but loses in the eyes of the world because of poor narrative management. In contrast, countries like Qatar have silently reshaped their global image—through airlines, global sports, news networks, and funding major universities. From Al-Jazeera to the FIFA World Cup, narrative power is everything. And while that happens globally, at home, politicians are allegedly buying YouTube channels for ₹8-9 crores to push their version of reality.We didn't just stop there. We delved into the dark alleyways of the Indian underworld—gold smuggling routes, Calicut's Kondotty village, and how dons moved into real estate after using heroines and music labels as money fronts. He talked about bomb blasts, NSG failures, the Bhatkal brothers, and how stories were buried before ever being told. He opened up about the deaths of icons like Lal Bahadur Shastri and cases like Nagarwala, where ₹60 lakhs were withdrawn from SBI based on a phone call impersonating the Prime Minister.Even the names of Hyderabad's localities—Tarnaka, Musarambagh, Bolaram—carry centuries of untold stories, which were brought to life with stunning clarity. We spoke about the TRP race, the death of press conferences, and how public discourse has shifted from dinner table conversations to manipulated debate shows. The impact of “WhatsApp journalism,” sensationalism, and psychological conditioning through repetitive negative news is unpacked with startling precision.As the media landscape tilts further into noise and chaos, This discussion calls for a revival of real, fearless journalism. He expresses his admiration for Karan Thapar, Ramnath Goenka, and Ramoji Rao—figures who once stood for truth despite the odds. He reflects on why journalists today are either demonized or silenced, and how stringers are forced into unethical shortcuts due to low wages and pressure.Ending on a powerful and emotional note, he shares life lessons from his father, a man of honesty and principle, and offers his heartfelt advice to the youth of India. In a world where everyone is fighting to be heard, this episode reminds us that sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is simply speak the truth.

“We deliver Zero Trust out of the box—it's built in, not bolted on.” — Suresh Katukam, Chief Product Officer, Nile While the cybersecurity conversation continues to focus on Zero Trust and Secure Service Edge (SSE), Nile is calling out what many have missed: the campus network. In a world where cloud-based remote work has advanced rapidly, on-premises security—especially across corporate and hybrid environments—has lagged behind. In a Technology Reseller News podcast recorded just after Enterprise Connect, Suresh Katukam outlined why even the most well-resourced companies struggle to achieve Zero Trust in their campus networks—and how Nile's “out-of-the-box” approach changes the game. Campus Zero Trust: The Missing Link “The same users who are secure at home become vulnerable in the office,” said Katukam. “That's because campus networks were built on implicit trust—just plugging into an Ethernet port gives you access. That's broken by design.” While cloud Zero Trust has made strides, most enterprise campuses still rely on legacy NAC solutions, VLANs, ACLs, and other outdated, complex layers of bolt-on security. Nile flips that model—offering Zero Trust campus security as a native feature of the network itself. What “Out of the Box” Really Means Nile's solution is pre-configured for Zero Trust from day one. Every user and device is authenticated and authorized continuously, not just at login. Micro-segmentation, behavioral analytics, and continuous risk scoring mean that even compromised credentials won't lead to lateral movement or ransomware spread. “We call it a segment of one,” said Katukam. “You can't see other users on the network. You can't move laterally. Ransomware can't propagate.” Administrators have full control through a simplified interface that supports policy toggling, real-time response, and behavioral-based reauthentication—without layering in extra management tools. Security-Driven Network as a Service Nile isn't just a security company—it's a networking company that rethinks how networks are built and managed. Delivered as a service, Nile offers high-performance, low-latency connectivity with embedded Zero Trust principles. “Even large enterprises with robust security teams are choosing Nile—because the security is integrated into the network itself,” Katukam explained. For example, one financial services customer consolidated three segmented networks (IT, OT, and guest) into a single secure fabric using Nile. Another prevented a physical intrusion from turning into a breach, thanks to the system's strict device authentication and visibility controls.

Do you sometimes feel like you're mailing it in?Sure, you're achieving your goals, hitting your numbers, and getting boxes checked on your to-do list. On paper, you're a success.But it still feels empty, like something's missing and you're not really succeeding.How do you know for sure? Who's there to help you figure it out? And what example are you setting for those who see you as a role model, even if you don't know they look up to you?These are questions Suresh Bhagchandani found himself grappling with one day while going over his sales numbers with his boss.Suresh was born in raised in India, with three older sisters and his mother. His father died when he was young and his family had limited financial resources but an abundance of strong values. Among the values and beliefs he gained was that if you're a good human and do the right things, good things will come along.When he was 21, he and his mother moved to the United States where he enrolled in community college and then UNC Chapel Hill. Being an immigrant and landing in a small town in North Carolina, he searched for how to fit in in this unfamiliar territory. For one thing, he was stunned by how people here brew and drink coffee! Suresh began to find his purpose, and his friends, when he got involved in organizations and activities that placed him in social situations.This gave him a fine appreciation of the power of networking, which catalyzed his life that day when his bosses told him he was doing a “fine” job – but Fine is a 4-Letter Word.This is a conversation about what it means to adapt, push past limitations, and create opportunities. And I love that we get into not only the importance, but the power, of properly identifying your friends, acquaintances, and the various roles different people play in your life. Like, do you have a “board of directors” who guide you in your decisions? And if you've decided that 100% is just mailing it in, how do you get to 120%? What will your kids think?Hang on because first…Suresh's hype song is "Started From The Bottom" by Drake.Resources:Suresh Bhagchandani's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sureshlb Also, be sure to listen to our recent episode, Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends On It, for an important lesson in the practice of gratitude.Invitation from Lori:This episode is sponsored by Zen Rabbit. Smart business leaders know trust is the foundation of every great workplace. And in today's hybrid and fast-moving work culture, trust isn't built in quarterly town halls or the occasional Slack message. It's built through consistent, clear, and HUMAN communication. Companies and leaders TALK about the importance of connection and community. And it's easy to believe your organization is doing a great job of maintaining an awesome corporate culture. Because you've got annual all-hands and open door policies, and “fun" team-building events.But let's be real. Leaders who are serious about building real trust are finding better ways to strengthen culture, create connection, and foster community.That's where I come in. Forward thinking companies are hiring me to produce internal/private podcasts. To bring leadership and employees together through authentic stories, real conversations, and meaningful connections. Think of it as your old-school printed company newsletter - reinvented for the modern workforce. I KNOW, what a cool idea, right?!...

Clarifying the status of the virus, the Union Health Ministry issued a statement that read “HMPV is already in circulation globally, including in India, and cases of respiratory illnesses associated with HMPV have been reported in various countries.” It added that there was no history of international travel in the two cases that were picked up during surveillance, meaning that these infections have no connection to the reported surge in respiratory infections in China.The Chhattisgarh police Sunday arrested the alleged main accused Suresh Chandrakar in connection with the murder of journalist Mukesh Chandrakar in the state's Bijapur district from Telangana.
