Hosted by Brad Zerbo and Jaytriot with special guest Ashe in America, this special edition of The Audio Files dives deep into the culture, history, and philosophy behind jam bands. Ashe traces the musical lineage from The Grateful Dead's touring-first rebellion to The Allman Brothers' Southern rock harmonies, Derek and the Dominos' blues influence, Widespread Panic's Red Rocks legacy, and the sovereign spirit of Jack Johnson. Along the way, the trio explores bootleg culture, improvisation, musical community, and how bands built movements without relying on radio gatekeepers. The conversation crescendos with Dave Matthews Band, featuring a live COVID-era performance that became a lifeline during lockdowns, and a surprise guitar remix from Brad that bridges skepticism with appreciation. The episode closes with Rusted Root and a heartfelt tribute to a dear friend, reminding listeners why live music and shared experience matter so much. Themes of musical freedom, community resilience, artistic sovereignty, and the emotional power of live performance run throughout this episode.

In this episode, I recap the second day of Field of Dreams and focus specifically on what I believe is one of the most crucial — and often overlooked — aspects of our work: engaging parents. We know CCPT works. We know the research supports it. But none of that matters if families drop out before the process has time to unfold. Attrition rates in CCPT are high, and most parents leave before the seventh session. That reality forces us to look inward. If parents are anxious, pushy, resistant, or distant, that is not simply a "difficult parent" problem — it's often a breakdown in how we are building trust. I walk through two core frameworks: the Therapist Trust Triad and the Parent Partnership Pathway. The Trust Triad challenges us to evaluate ourselves in three domains — internal regulation, external clarity, and relational positioning — and to identify where our own breakdown may be occurring. The Parent Partnership Pathway reminds us that understanding and buy-in develop slowly over time. Parents in crisis cannot absorb everything about CCPT all at once. Engagement must be intentional, paced, and strategic. It's not about talking more or explaining more — it's about building trust in a way that allows families to stay long enough for the model to work. The Field of Dreams training is now available on demand. You can get more information at playtherapynow.com. If you've ever wondered where you truly are developmentally in the model — and what it would take to move toward genuine mastery — this framework gives you the path. When we build depth before height, the entire field changes. PlayTherapyNow.com is my HUB for everything I do! playtherapynow.com.

A different kind of episode today! We're back with two voices, and this time, instead of Pilar sharing notes from a book, she speaks to her co-author Bree Caggiati, about their latest book, "Connection and Disconnection in Remote Teams". They cover some of the book's topics, how the research has moved on, and for Part 2, they've got some connection-related personal updates. In today's episode: Part 1 Check out Connection and Disconnection in Remote Teams, the book! 1. Book and Project Origins Bree and Pilar explain how their 2019 podcast project on connection and disconnection evolved into their recently published book. 2. Evolution from Remote to Hybrid Work How remote work went from a "niche" concept in 2019 to the mainstream adoption of hybrid models post-pandemic, and the common mistake of forcing traditional office-based practices into remote environments and the benefits of establishing intentional remote-first frameworks. 3. Diversity and Inclusion in Connection: Individuals experience belonging differently and how designing for specific needs can benefit an entire team. 4. Structure and Themes of the Book An overview of the core topics addressed in the book. 5. New Research on Monthly Meetups A new study by Nick Bloom suggesting that bringing fully remote teams together just once a month can significantly boost productivity and reduce quit rates. 6. The "3A Framework" of Connection & Shared Responsibility A breakdown of three ways people connect at work., and the "overarching thesis" that connection is a shared duty between the organisation, the manager, and the individual, requiring deliberate design rather than just hoping it happens. 7. The Connection Quiz A ten-question, quiz to test Bree's memory of key concepts from the book, such as the health risks of chronic loneliness and the "remote-first" approach. 8. Generative AI and Rapport How AI chatbots might replace small human interactions, potentially impacting the bonding and trust-building typically found in quick feedback loops. Part 2: Personal Updates Talking "Away from the Work", but still connected to today's topic of connection!

In this episode, Dr. Jen White demystifies the "itching and burning" that so many women face but few talk about with clarity. She explains that chronic yeast infections aren't a sign your body is broken—they are a cry for help from your internal ecosystem.

You'll learn why "healthy" fermented foods might be fueling your flare-ups, how bioidentical hormones actually support tissue integrity, and the exact clinical protocol Dr. Jen uses to help her clients find permanent relief. It's time to stop the cycle of discomfort and regain sovereignty over your body. Themes & Key Takeaways The Gut-Vagina Axis: Why low stomach acid and slow motility create the perfect fermentation environment for yeast. Hidden Food Triggers: Understanding why vinegar, nutritional yeast, and excess protein can cause flare-ups even on a "clean" diet. Hormones & Tissue Integrity: How bioidentical progesterone and pelvic floor ointments strengthen your natural defenses against infection. Root Cause Myths: Debunking the idea that fruit or natural sugars are the primary enemies in the fight against Candida. The Signature Protocol: A deep dive into the clinical use of herbal antifungals, NAC for biofilms, and strategic pharmaceuticals.

In this lightning round episode, I tackle four listener questions that each highlight common pressure points in CCPT practice. First, I address a question about children who consistently want the lights turned off in session — particularly in the context of suspected trauma. I walk through the most common meanings behind darkness in play (power and control, fear, trauma associations, or simple symbolic necessity), and I explain how to honor the child's need while maintaining safety through clear "if you choose" limits. Next, I respond to questions about dollhouse setup, competition between school-based clients, and aggressive toys. I clarify why the playroom must always reset to a blank slate, why we never concede to demands to pre-stage materials, and how to handle competitiveness when children compare sessions. I also provide practical guidance on toy guns and shooters — what is appropriate, what should be avoided, and why clearly "toy-like" features matter in a CCPT playroom. Finally, I address two complex advocacy situations: when a pediatrician advises against CCPT during a high-conflict divorce, and when a severely traumatized child appears unable to engage in play therapy at all. In both cases, I emphasize calm, confident advocacy, collaboration over confrontation, and unwavering trust in the model. CCPT is not harmful when a child resists, dysregulates, or refuses to play — those behaviors often signal profound need. Our role is not to force progress, but to remain steady, patient, and faithful to the process. PlayTherapyNow.com is my HUB for everything I do! playtherapynow.com.

This week on the AmplifyME Market Maker Podcast, Anthony goes solo to break down three big stories — a $58 billion oil merger, a pulled tech IPO, and private equity's move into Indian cricket — all tied together by one theme: survival in the age of AI.In energy, Devon Energy and Coterra Energy are merging to focus on efficiency and basin concentration as shale matures.In tech, Blackstone-backed Liftoff Mobile paused its IPO after AI tools like Anthropic's Claude Cowork cast doubt on the traditional per-seat SaaS model.And in sport, firms including Blackstone, KKR, and CVC are betting on the Indian Premier League, drawn to the scarcity and predictable cash flows of live, un-automatable experiences.From oil to software to sport, this episode explores how capital is repositioning for a world where defensibility and efficiency matter more than ever.(00:00) Intro & Themes in Focus(01:23) Oil Mega-Merger(03:23) AI & The SaaS Shock(05:59) Private Equity Buys Cricket(08:11) The Big PictureWant experience what it would be like to be an M&A adviser?

The Healthtech Marketing Podcast presented by HIMSS and healthlaunchpad
In this episode of The HealthTech Marketing Show, I am joined by two of my colleagues from Health Launchpad, Design Lead Pepper Fee and Account Director Amy Hamilton. Both Amy and Pepper bring decades of experience in healthcare IT marketing and design to the table, having managed everything from massive trade show booths for global corporations to high-impact activations for startups.We discuss why the traditional obsession with lead volume often misses the mark, and how to reframe events as tools for building and growing human relationships in an increasingly digital world. Whether you are struggling to decide if a booth theme is powerful or just a gimmick, or you want to know how to prevent your sales team from hiding behind furniture, this conversation is packed with practical advice. We also share real-world stories of what works, from live screen printing to "margarita bicycles," and discuss the critical behavior rules every booth staffer should follow.Key Topics Covered"(00:00:00)" Guest Introductions"(00:02:13)" Reframing the Goal"(00:03:02)" Defining Experiential Marketing"(00:05:46)" Logistics vs. Design"(00:06:47)" The Power and Pitfalls of Themes"(00:10:19)" The Customer Journey"(00:12:49)" Case Study: AI in Healthcare"(00:15:38)" Creative Booth Activations"(00:18:38)" Attracting and Engaging Visitors"(00:21:37)" The Swag Debate"(00:27:31)" Learning from the Giants"(00:34:38)" Common Mistakes"(00:38:24)" Booth Behavior and Coordination"(00:41:43)" What to Stop DoingIf you are interested in discussing this or any other topic, let's have a chat.

This piece is built around a field recording from the sound collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum of Berber beggars singing for charity.Listening to this recording, across time, what struck me was not difference but familiarity. Themes of begging, homelessness and poverty recur in traditional songs from all cultures, spanning the centuries. Despite differences in place, language and technology, poverty, hunger, social injustice, and the vulnerability that comes with these things, remains constant.Through my organisation in Whitby, Flash Company Arts, I frequently work with people experiencing homelessness and fragile economic circumstances. Hearing this recording, made more than 60 years ago, felt uncomfortably relevant to my daily work. These voices could belong to anyone, anywhere, right now.The lyric “A Begging I Will Go” is borrowed from an ancient English folk song, first printed on a black-letter broadside in 1684. And still today, all over the world, people wake each morning to the same words: A begging I will go.Nothing changes.Beggars singing for charity reimagined by Rebecca Denniff (Subphotic).———Part of the project A Century of Sounds, reimagining 100 sounds covering 100 years from the collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford.

In this episode, the group discusses the themes, characters, and writing style of Midnight Tides, the fifth book in the Malazan series. They explore the balance of humor and darkness, the significance of the Oodaloo character, and the complexities of the Warlock King. The conversation also touches on the themes of colonialism and enslavement, as well as the evolution of Erikson's prose.

In this conversation, the participants delve into the intricate themes of the Malazan series, focusing on the dynamics of power, time travel, and the relationships between characters, particularly the Sengar brothers. They explore the implications of actions taken by characters, the significance of blessings and curses, and the tragic elements of the narrative. The discussion highlights the emotional weight of guilt, regret, and the complexities of familial relationships, culminating in reflections on the nature of heroism and the consequences of choices made in the face of adversity.Send us a message (I'm not able to reply)Support the showPage Chewing Blog Page Chewing Forum Film Chewing PodcastSpeculative Speculations Podcast Support the podcast via PayPal Support the show by using our Amazon Affiliate linkJoin Riverside.fm Co-Hosts: Jarrod Varsha Chris Jose Carl D.

This week is quite impressive for Space Weather!Saturn Conjunct Neptune in PiscesVenus returns as the evening star and forms a gateway activating the Base ChakraPlanetary parade with Pluto, Mars, the Sun, Mercury, Venus and the Moon all in a lineUranus in TaurusJupiter in GeminiIn this episode, we explore the powerful astrological and numerological influences shaping the current moment. We unpack the idea of “astrological space weather” and how these cosmic patterns interact with the energetic themes of the year, offering a broader lens for understanding both personal and collective experiences.The conversation introduces key foundations, including the Wheel of the Year, an overview of sidereal astrology, and how it differs from the tropical system many people are familiar with. We also look at the role of both personal and generational planets—from Mercury and Venus through to Pluto—and how their movements reflect shifts happening within individuals and across society.A central focus of the episode is the journey of Venus and its symbolic connection to the divine feminine, alongside reflections on current planetary alignments and what they may signify in this time of change. Themes of societal transformation, the unraveling of outdated belief systems, and the growing importance of personal sovereignty weave throughout the discussion.We close with an invitation for listeners to cultivate discernment in an era of information overload—encouraging curiosity, self-education, and direct observation as tools for forming grounded, independent perspectives.
The municipal bond market kicked off 2026 with strength but volatility, supply dynamics, and state-level policy are already shaping the road ahead.In this Weekly Wrap Up, host Eric Kazatsky is joined by Jack Muller, CFA, Credit Analyst at MacKay Municipal Managers, to break down the latest muni insights. They explore why munis have outperformed taxable fixed income so far this year, how richening ratios reflect continued demand, and why investors are keeping a close eye on credit fundamentals. The conversation zooms in on California's improved fiscal outlook and the proposed wealth tax ballot initiative, as well as Florida's potential property tax reform and what both mean for municipal credit.Follow UsTwitter @NYLInvestmentsTwitter @MacKayMuniMgrsFacebook @NYLInvestmentsLinkedIn: New York Life InvestmentsLinkedIn: MacKay Municipal ManagersPresented by New York Life Investmentswww.newyorklifeinvestments.comMacKay Municipal Managers is a team of portfolio managers at MacKay Shields.

In this episode, I walk you through the Summit Framework — the developmental roadmap for mastery in child-centered play therapy that I presented at the Field of Dreams training. I believe one of the greatest challenges in our field is that we've never clearly defined how a therapist progresses toward true mastery. We learn the skills. We memorize the principles. But we're rarely shown how to stabilize under pressure and refine our foundation before moving higher. And when we skip that step, we crumble. Mastery in CCPT is not about advancing quickly into insight-level work. It's about disciplined refinement of the fundamentals. If reflective responding breaks down when content is uncomfortable, if limit-setting collapses under chaos, if steadiness disappears when pressure rises — that's where the work is. Just like elite athletes still hit off a tee and master musicians still practice scales, we must return to basics in order to strengthen the tiers beneath us. In this episode, I outline the four levels of the Summit Framework and explain how video-based self-review becomes the pathway to real growth. The Field of Dreams training is now available on demand. You can get more information at playtherapynow.com. If you've ever wondered where you truly are developmentally in the model — and what it would take to move toward genuine mastery — this framework gives you the path.

In this episode of Reboot IT, host Dave Coriale, President of DelCor, sits down with David Stephenson, SVP of Technology at Entrepreneurs' Organization, to unpack what true collaboration really means in associations and nonprofits. Together, they explore the difference between transactional vendor relationships and deep strategic partnerships, how to build psychological safety within project teams, and why honest dialogue is essential for successful outcomes. David also shares practical tactics for selecting partners, navigating conflict, and reducing organizational risk through collaborative practices.Themes and Topics:What Collaboration Really Is (and Isn't)Collaboration isn't about being nice or making sure “everyone's at the table.” It's about having the right mix of people with different perspectives.When everyone thinks the same and has the same motivations, you end up with polite agreement, not real progress.There's a big difference between just enlarging a meeting and actually collaborating with intention.Getting the Right Mix: Staff, Members, Vendors, and PartnersAssociations juggle vendors, partners, staff, and members, each with different levels of involvement and motivation.David distinguishes between people who are in the weeds with you (like design and development partners) and those who play a key but more behind‑the‑scenes role (like hosting providers).Upfront, he works to get everyone on the same page: What problem are we solving? What role do you play? What's your motive (and recognizing that everyone has one, and that's okay)?Vendors vs. Partners: Building the Right Kind of RelationshipIn his head, David does see a spectrum: some are more transactional services (SaaS products, integration tools), while others are strategic partners who need to understand mission, business objectives, and strategy.He tries not to use the word vendor in conversation and instead works to make everyone feel like a partner, even if their role is more narrow.When negotiating, he looks for a fair outcome on both sides — if a partner walks away with “really thin margins,” you end up with constant “change order” moments and a strained dynamic from day one.Honest Dialogue, Healthy Friction, and Psychological SafetyDavid values partners who can say things like “That's just not possible,” or “That doesn't align with the strategy you described,” instead of always saying yes.He expects and welcomes friction and hard conversations around timelines, costs, and expectations. If there's zero friction, something's probably off.Psychological safety is key: people need to feel they can disagree, say “I don't think this is working,” or ask tough questions without fearing for their job, contract, or relationship.Doing the Work: Projects, Postmortems, and “Disagree but Commit”David admits he hasn't “cracked the code” on postmortems, but he knows they only work if people feel safe enough to speak up during the project, not just after.When collaboration is done well, it may feel slow at the beginning, but it ultimately makes the work go faster and smoother than siloed, go-it-alone approaches.He likes setting expectations from the start: speak up when it's “cheap to disagree,” and embrace the idea of “disagree, but commit” so the team can move forward with one voice.Collaboration as Risk Reduction for the FutureDavid sees collaboration as a way to de‑risk his future; the stronger his network and partnerships, the better prepared he is for what's coming.Staying insular and only looking inside your own team or organization raises your risk, especially in fast-changing areas like technology and AI.By collaborating widely and intentionally, associati
You know those moments when you think you've reached the end of the story… …and then someone opens a dusty cardboard box and you realise you're actually just getting started? This episode begins not in Thailand.Not on WhatsApp.Not in a bar with a man in full Admiral whites. It begins in a garage. Specifically, retired detective and criminologist Professor Vince Hurley's garage. Inside? Old case files. Notes. Clippings. Things packed away but never quite forgotten. The kind of paperwork that doesn't shout… it just waits. And when we start going through those boxes together, something becomes very clear: Patterns don't disappear.They just gather dust. In this episode of The BADmiral, we step back in time. We look at what was known, what was said, what was documented — long before this podcast existed. We explore how experienced investigators think, how instincts form, and why sometimes your gut is simply pattern recognition catching up with you.

Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0KIn this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz examines the artist background of Bad Bunny, born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio on March 10, 1994, in Puerto Rico. Nicknamed the “King of Latin Trap,” he broke out in 2016 with “Diles” and played a pivotal role in mainstreaming Spanish-language urban music globally.Bad Bunny dominated Spotify as the most-streamed artist in 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2025, earning six Grammy wins. His 2025 album Debí Tirar Más Fotos made history as the first Spanish-language album to win Album of the Year at the 2026 Grammys.The spotlight is on his landmark Apple Music Super Bowl LX halftime show on February 8, 2026, at Levi's Stadium—a 13-minute set that became the first chiefly Spanish-language headlining performance. Sponsored by Apple Music, it drew 128–135 million U.S. viewers, often called the most-watched halftime show ever, with the NFL YouTube upload hitting 52 million views shortly after.Guests included Ricky Martin and Lady Gaga, blending cultural tributes with high-energy hits. The performance celebrated Latino and Puerto Rican identity, emphasized dancing over language barriers, and carried political messaging against immigration raids and friction with figures like Donald Trump—echoing his Grammys ICE reference.Post-show, tracks surged: “DtMF” (title track) hit #1 on Hot Latin Songs, Latin Streaming Songs, and Latin Digital Song Sales; re-entered Hot 100 Top 10; set a Spanish-song single-day Spotify record with 16.52M streams; and became his 4th Global 200 #1. “BAILE INoLVIDABLE” saw 54% U.S. Spotify lift, while “NUEVAYoL,” “Tití Me Preguntó” (historical Hot 100 #5), and others like “Yo Perreo Sola” (+2,170% streams) exploded. Bad Bunny occupied Top 6 U.S. Spotify spots, with +470% U.S. and +210% global streaming spikes, 98M+ U.S. on-demand streams the next day, and 28+ songs charting.Themes from halftime-relevant songs—“DtMF” (nostalgia, living fully), “Baile Inolvidable” (salsa-rooted romance reflection), “Nuevayol” (diaspora identity), and “Tití Me Preguntó” (family pressures with dembow/trap/bachata)—reinforced cultural depth.Analytic Dreamz breaks down its strategic impact as a massive streaming catalyst, cultural amplifier for Spanish-language music, and catalog monetization engine, showcasing cross-market dominance, platform-driven success, and Bad Bunny's unmatched catalog depth with dozens of billion-stream tracks.Tune in for detailed insights on this historic moment in music, culture, and global reach.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/exclusive-contentPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Atlanta Soccer Tonight delivers a special two-hour season preview edition as Atlanta United opens its 10th season this weekend in Cincinnati. Jason Longshore is joined by Abe Gordon, Madison Crews, Jon Nelson, and Jarrett Smith to lay out what Atlanta must become in 2026: the non-negotiables, Tata Martino's tactical fingerprints, and what early success should actually look like. The crew also goes around Major League Soccer to assess how contenders have spent the offseason, why the Eastern Conference remains unforgiving, and where Atlanta fits in the league's evolving hierarchy. Mike Conti joins the show to reflect on Atlanta's decade-long rise, the World Cup coming to Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and what the next era means for the city and for MLS. Plus, the team breaks down the most revealing comments from Steven Alzate and Juan Berrocal — from sprint-heavy intensity to the “protagonist” mentality of playing fearless, vertical soccer — and how it shapes expectations for Saturday. The night closes with Atlanta United at 10 memories, wildest matches, favorite kits, and the signature 3-4-3: critical players, defining themes, and reasons to smile heading into Year 10.

Today on Ascend: The Great Books Podcast, Dcn. Harrison Garlick and Dr. Donald Prudlo, the Warren Chair of Catholic Studies at the University of Tulsa, discuss the Ante-Purgatory, the foot of Mount Purgatory (Cantos 1-5).Check out our guide on Dante's Purgatorio (out soon!)Visit Dr. Jason Baxter's website and use "Ascend" in the promo code for 20% off his Purgatorio audiobook.Thanks for the Center for Beauty and Culture at Benedictine College for their support!The conversation with Dr. Prudlo and Deacon Garlick on Cantos 1–5 of Purgatorio opens with the dramatic shift from the despair of Inferno to the hope and refreshment of Purgatory.In Canto 1, Dante and Virgil emerge from Hell onto the shores of Mount Purgatory at Easter dawn, where Dante humbly invokes Calliope, the Muse of epic poetry, signaling his project as “the Christian epic” (Dr. Donald Prudlo). They meet Cato the Younger, a pagan suicide saved by special grace, who embodies the four cardinal virtues and serves as Purgatory's guardian. Prudlo emphasizes the shock: “Cato the pagan, the suicide is going to heaven. And we have got to confront that or we're going to miss so much of what Dante has to tell us here” (Dr. Donald Prudlo). The ritual of washing with dew and girding with the humble reed contrasts the broken plants of the suicides in Hell and symbolizes the beginning of true humility and ascent.Cantos 2–5 introduce the late-repentant souls and the mountain's structure. In Canto 2, an angelic boat ferries souls singing “In exitu Israel de Aegypto,” a psalm of liberation that Prudlo calls “a multifaceted song” evoking Exodus, baptism, and community (Dr. Donald Prudlo). Casella's song of Dante's own poetry enchants the group until Cato rebukes their idleness.Cantos 3–5 explore excommunicated sinners like Manfred (“even under a curse like mine, no one's ever so lost that eternal love cannot come back, as long as hope has any sprouts of green” – Manfred via transcript) and the slothful Belacqua, who banters with Dante like old friends. Prudlo highlights the power of last-minute mercy and intercession: “Mary is the last refuge of sinners” (Dr. Donald Prudlo). The cantos teach that Purgatory is a place of communal hope, where grace reaches even the unlikely, and purification begins with humility, prayer, and rightly ordered love—setting the stage for the active ascent through the terraces.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Dante's Purgatorio04:42 The Importance of Reading Purgatorio08:02 Themes of Emancipation and Freedom10:57 The Role of Cato in Purgatorio13:49 Cato's Significance and Political Implications17:00 Cato as a Precursor to Christ19:51 Dante's Literary Techniques and Inspirations22:56 Contrasting Ulysses and Dante25:36 Cato's Death and Its Symbolism28:52 The Nature of Purgatory and Salvation31:51 Cato's Virtues and Their Relevance34:49 The Relationship Between Cato and Christ37:48 Conclusion and Reflections on Purgatorio50:03 Understanding Cato's Role in Purgatorio52:43 The Heartbreaking Choice of Cato54:39 Rituals and Purification in Purgatory01:00:18 The Arrival at Purgatory01:06:34 The Significance of Water in Salvation01:12:09 Virgil's Role and the Nature of Guidance01:24:57 Manfred: A Case of Late Repentance01:29:38 The Role of Intercessory Prayer in Purgatory01:34:00 Understanding Mount Purgatory and Its Significance01:40:15 The Character of Belacqua and Themes...
