    Podcast Movement 2026 Reflections + Lessons from Two People Who Run Podcast EventsI just got back from Podcast Movement, and a lot of you have been asking whether it was still worth going now that it's under new ownership, in a new location, with a whole new format. Short answer: I'm definitely going back.In this episode I walk through what changed, what I loved, what I'd tweak, and what Tom Webster's data says about where podcasting really stands. Then I sit down with two guys who have actually done it, Marc Ronick of Empowered Podcasting and Dr. Brad Miller of Pod Indy, to get the behind-the-scenes story of running a podcast event. If you've ever had that little voice in your head saying "maybe I should start my own meetup or conference," this one is for you.Podcast Movement 2026: Was It Worth It?I went down the list, old Podcast Movement versus new.The hotel and the cost. It used to be at Gaylord hotels, which run $1,000 a night, where the burgers are $30 apiece and you never leave the building. This year was BYOH: bring your own hotel. I stayed two nights at a Holiday Inn Express for $400 a night. Still pricey, but nowhere near the Gaylord. Tickets were also much cheaper because they weren't paying for that hotel arrangement. Point to the new Podcast Movement.The venue. Picture a small theater (think House of Blues) that had a baby with a cruise ship: three floors, and you can look down at the main stage from the top. The rooms were narrower, so the back row was farther from the stage than I was used to. I also learned I need new glasses, because the giant screen was split in two and I couldn't read the slides. Sessions ran with silent-disco-style headphones: turn the dial to yellow or green and you hear that stage. The strange part is that people talk while someone is presenting a few feet away. It went against everything in my body, but it works, and I could network the whole time. My one suggestion: turn on the house lights during networking breaks. When you have 40 minutes to meet people and can't see who's in the room, it's a problem (unless it's Rob Greenley, who is six foot six inches).Networking and the parties. PodPage hosted a small meetup, and I walked over to the Buzzsprout meetup too. Both were places where you could actually talk, with no blaring music. I've talked to Dan Franks, who helps plan Podcast Movement, and he says they tell every sponsor that people want to talk, not have their ears bleed. Nice to see it work.New York City. I'll miss Dallas and Chicago, but it's supposedly staying in New York to make it easier for international attendees. The food was a win, and I never felt unsafe walking around Hell's Kitchen. I ate at Cubbies and at McGee's, which I didn't realize until halfway through is tied to How I Met Your Mother.A smarter schedule. Monday and Tuesday were geared toward the business and advertising side, and Thursday and Friday were for indie podcasters. That means indie folks can save on the hotel bill.The talks are going online. They're putting the presentations on the Podcast Movement YouTube channel for free. I'm looking forward to catching the ones I missed, including Lou Mangiello and Rob Walch's talk about video.What I Learned from Tom WebsterIf you only see one talk at a conference, make it Tom Webster's. Here's what stuck with me:Podcasting has gone flat. It used to grow at least 3 to 5% a year, occasionally 7%. This past year it barely moved. It's still growing, but by a very small amount.Where people listen. In a survey of roughly 5,000 podcast consumers, the top three places were YouTube, Spotify, and Netflix. Not Apple, Pocket Casts, or Overcast.Where I disagree. YouTube and Spotify are open to anyone, so I get why people call them podcasts. Netflix isn't open. They have to choose you, and there's no RSS feed. For me, a podcast is an RSS feed with audio or video in it.Tom's Walmart analogy. Look at the CD section: a tiny collection of only the biggest hits (Back in Black, Rumors), nothing like a dedicated record store. His suggestion was that we should promote podcast-specific apps. My favorite is Pocket Casts: it plays audio and video, it has bookmarks (that's how I grab the clips I play on the show), and it has a web version.Podcast Standards Project: PodRoll Is ComingI sat in on my first Podcast Standards Project meeting. PodRoll, from the Podcasting 2.0 spec, is the modern version of a blogroll: a list of shows you personally recommend, living in your feed. Because feeds are public, anyone can see who's recommended most. That's human recommendations, not an algorithm you try to trick. Ask your media host if they support it (if not move ton one that does). The group is also looking at adding location, so you could find podcasts in your area.Video: Do You Have To?Some people insist you have to do video. Others said not only do you not have to, but the shows that added it didn't see much benefit beyond more work, cost, and time. In Apple's video spotlight, the shows featured were already big. I'm looking forward to Rob Walch's full presentation, because that's exactly the kind of "what's working and what's not" you go to a conference to learn.Small Events vs. Big OnesPodcast Movement had probably over 1,000 people. Empowered Podcasting had a little over 100 (about 150 this year), and Pod Indy will land somewhere between 50 and 100. Podfest usually draws a couple thousand. My favorite kind of event is single-track: everyone hears the same content, so when you step into the hallway you all have something to talk about.Interview: Running a Podcast Event with Marc Ronick and Dr. Brad MillerWhy they started. Brad spent 43 years as a pastor and was a Christian concert promoter, so he'd seen the power of live events. After connecting with his local podcasting group in Indianapolis, he launched Pod Indy in 2023 (I keynoted the first one), and the fourth is coming up. Mark had been podcasting as long as I have, and didn't step into a conference until about five years ago. He felt a little out of place at the big ones, so he built a place where he'd feel comfortable.Small is a feature. Mark went in wanting Empowered Podcasting to become the next Podcast Movement. After the first one (2024, under 100 people) he noticed magic in a smaller, more intimate room, where people were learning from each other outside the sessions. He'd cap it around 200. Brad goes deep on one track, one day.The biggest surprises:You can't do it alone. Mark thought he could run it almost by himself. He carried the financial and emotional load, burned out after year two, and nearly canceled three times. Jason and Rich stepped in to save it, and he made them business partners.Ticket sales come late. In Mark's second year, only about 20 tickets sold before the final month. Brad says two-thirds of tickets arrive in the last month. This year's sales were smoother for both, and both say credibility builds over time.Bring enough lead time. Brad's first event had only three months, and he bit off more than he could chew. He also lost money using a business center, so he moved it to his church, where he has a studio, and kept it to one day with no hotel block.Hotel blocks. If you don't fill the rooms, you pay anyway. Mark's went fine this year because speakers and a good share of attendees needed rooms.Money, honestly. Brad started by deciding what he could afford to lose (he did lose some the first year, and calls it an investment). Mark admits he wasn't careful with money in the first two years and took on some debt. Both credit their wives, Debbie and Amy, for keeping them grounded and for believing in the vision.Advice if you're thinking about it:Mark: Be okay with however many people show up. Start with a few who believe in your message. If they have a good experience, they come back and become your advocates.Brad: Build transformative relationships one on one, then a few together. Have coffee or lunch with someone, or start online, before deciding whether to do a formal event.Both: Virtual is great, but nothing replaces being around like-minded people in person.Choosing speakers. Mark's pet peeve is speaker submissions that are obviously written entirely by AI: "I love using AI, but that's a lazy move, and I don't know that I want a lazy speaker on one of my stages." (My favorite line on this: if you can't take the time to write it, produce it, or record it, why should I take the time to consume it?) Brad recruits speakers through personal relationships instead of an application process. Themes so far: podcasting as a business, AI, and this year taking your podcast (and your life) to the next level with keynote speaker Cliff Ravenscraft.Pod Indy: November 7, 2026When and where: November 7, 2026, in Whiteland, Indiana (suburban Indianapolis), 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.Tickets: $37 in person, $27 live stream.Discount: use code SOP for $5 off.On the lineup: Cliff Ravenscraft (keynote), John Lee Dumas (video), Craig on AI, and me.My TakeawayIf you try to start with 1,000 people, you'll burn...

    Ep. 89: Cycles, Loops & Embodied Knowledge: What Unravels When We Linger – Franzi Böhm

    In this conversation, we follow loops and cycles: menstrual cycles, breath cycles, artistic processes, patterns we inherit, and the things that begin to unravel when we stay with discomfort rather than rushing to resolve it. I'm joined by scholar, artist, musician and dancer Franziska Böhm, whose practice moves between sound, movement, somatics and embodied knowledge. To record this episode with Franzi felt like a dance – between inner relating and outer responding – instantly and continuously diving deeper into what it means to linger with what cannot yet be explained, and how the body can become a site of listening, knowing and creating. Together we explored:- Franzi's story from studying classical music and music pedagogy in Germany, the latter which opened a world of new possibilities, and eventually led her to the UK to study an MA in Creative Practice, where she encountered movement practices that have continued to reshape how she understands making, knowing, and being.- We spend time diving into Franzi`s recent doctoral research all about loops and looping: not simply as repetition, but as a phenomenon and a way of generating knowledge.- Franzi speaks about her relationship to the menstrual cycle and cycles more broadly within her artistic practice, and about Skinner Releasing Technique – “a rigorous yet playful practice” that taught her to let processes unfold in their own way and to practice being with that wordless territory where something can be sensed before it can be named.- We continue exploring (my favourite) question - what does it mean to know through the body? And what might embodied knowledge-making ask of us when we recognise the fact that our bodies are always already racialised and politicised?- And then there is the breath: its constant filling and emptying, its cycles, its relationship to voice. We explore why breath and voice cannot be separated, how the voice can become a way of accessing movement, and how Franzi approaches “the voice as connective tissue”.- We invite you to lean back, sense of your weight, notice your own breath and enjoy this conversation about cycles, stigma, discomfort and what we internalise - and about what can begin to move when we give ourselves permission to stay with what we don't yet have words for. More about Franziska:Franziska (she/her) is a German-born, London-based artist and researcher working across dance, music, academia and hospitality. Continuously saying no to prescribed capitalist pathways of life has made her realise her values around slowing down, sensing, trusting and collaboration. This has led her to study and investigate modalities such as Skinner Releasing Technique and other movement practices for their capacity to help us sense into ourselves, each other, the environment and beyond. She is particularly interested in politicised somatics, exploring how we can apply these modalities to intentionally cultivate power in ourselves, in our communities and how doing the repair work can allow us to choose living our lives soulfully and experience collective transformation.Her methodology is collaborative, intuition based and about giving space to each other and to how the work unfolds. Her work often takes the form of interconnected pieces – albums, performances, and installations. Themes of lament run through her work, exploring vulnerability, connection, and the experience of breath and voice. More recently her research extends into the shared ground between pre-semantic bodily knowledge and machine learning, currently developing through a workshop series and new work with technologist Fiona Thendean as part of her fellowship at machinaloci space, London UK. Webpage: https://boehmfranziska.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/franziskaboehm__/ This is a public episode.

    For this episode of The Metal Cell Podcast, Richie sits down with Venus Sleeps for an exclusive track-by-track conversation about the release. We go through each song, exploring the themes, ideas, lyrics and musical direction behind the tracks, as well as the process of bringing the new material together. It's also a chance to look at how Venus Sleeps have developed during the years since Remnants and what has influenced the direction of Origins of Despair. The current line-up brings its own changes, with newest member James Wilson joining on bass and contributing a darker, more death-influenced vocal element. There are also some unexpected elements within the new material that expand the band's sound and show Venus Sleeps exploring different musical possibilities without losing what makes the band recognizable. We talk about the writing, the production and the decision to work again with Tommy O'Sullivan, continuing a relationship that has been part of the band's recorded history. But most importantly, we get into the songs themselves — what they're about, where the ideas came from and how the individual tracks fit into Origins of Despair as a whole. This is the story behind it — track by track.

    435 | When a Child Cheats Because They Have to Win: What's Really Happening in the Playroom?

    Play Therapy Podcast

    Play Episode Listen Later Sep 17, 2026 11:24


    In this episode, I answer a question about an 8-year-old who loves playing games but will do almost anything to make sure he wins—including cheating, changing the rules, and creating games where the outcome is stacked in his favor. When he does lose, he becomes angry, shuts down, or refuses to continue. I explain why our goal in CCPT is not to teach a child that losing is okay. That subtle shift gives us a therapist agenda. Instead, the therapeutic goal is for the child to eventually discover that even though losing may feel awful, he can handle it. I also explore what may be underneath the need to win, including low self-esteem, low frustration tolerance, anxiety, power and control, and the child's tendency to connect losing with being a loser and failing with being a failure. Rather than stopping the cheating or correcting the rules, we remain neutral, reflect feelings, provide encouragement that isn't tied to outcomes, and trust the child to work through these struggles in the playroom. Progress isn't that the child suddenly enjoys losing—it's that eventually he can lose, tolerate the disappointment, regulate himself, and say, "Okay, let's play again."

    In this final episode of the What's Wrong with Our Field? series, I tackle what I believe is a significant gap in child-centered play therapy: research. We have decades of foundational research supporting CCPT, along with newer studies examining the model with specific populations and presenting concerns. But much of our foundational literature is now decades old, and I believe we need a new generation of research examining CCPT itself—its theory, its efficacy, and how its outcomes compare with more directive approaches. I share my vision for what that research could look like, including current comparative studies of directive and nondirective approaches, and why stronger contemporary evidence could influence graduate education, medical and legal systems, managed care, and the broader mental health field. Most importantly, this episode is a call to action. If you're a researcher, doctoral student, clinician interested in participating in research, or someone who can help write and publish it, I want us to begin connecting those pieces and building a stronger body of CCPT literature together.

In this episode, Clara shares the physical realities she is currently navigating, including POTS and chronic pain from an old spinal injury, and how those experiences have changed the way she works and runs her business.This conversation explores what it means to build a business around your actual capacity rather than constantly fighting against it. Instead of forcing herself into a business model that requires more energy than her body can sustainably give, Clara shares why she has intentionally created structures, systems and ways of working that allow the business to continue succeeding while respecting what her body needs.This is not a conversation about lowering your ambition or expecting less from yourself. It is about questioning the belief that success has to require self-sacrifice.

    Emerging markets face a challenging mix of persistent inflation, potential Fed hikes, U.S. political uncertainty and geopolitical risks. Yet in this episode of Signals & Noise, David Hauner, Head of Global Emerging Markets Fixed Income Strategy at BofA Securities, explains why he remains constructive on EM carry despite a more difficult backdrop. Drawing from BofA's "Buy Back EM" outlook, Hauner outlines four key themes shaping emerging markets: Treasury market developments, a more hawkish Fed, U.S. midterm elections, and evolving EM monetary policy. He discusses why higher-yielding currencies in markets such as Brazil, Colombia, Turkey and frontier economies continue to look attractive, while remaining more cautious on EM rates and sovereign credit spreads. The episode also explores the outlook for the Chinese renminbi, risks from oil price volatility and the Iran situation, Brazil's upcoming election, and why investors should distinguish between opportunities in EM carry and risks in broader EM fixed income markets.   "Bank of America" and “BofA Securities” are the marketing names for the global banking businesses and global markets businesses (which includes BofA Global Research) of Bank of America Corporation.

    In this episode, we celebrate Peer Review Week 2026 with guests SLAS Discovery Editor-in-Chief Bob Campbell, PhD, and SLAS Technology Editor-in-Chief Ed Chow, PhD, to discuss the growing pressures on peer review—rising submission volumes (especially in AI and bioinformatics), fewer available reviewers post-COVID, and the challenge of finding crossover expertise. They advocate for formalized mentorship of early-career researchers, emphasize that good reviews offer constructive paths to publication rather than outright rejection, and encourage reviewers to accept or decline quickly and prioritize revision rounds.Key Learning PointsCapacity is squeezed – Submission volume is up (especially in silico/AI papers), while reviewers are more selective and reviewing less than pre-COVID.Mentorship matters – Pairwise mentor programs (PI + grad student/fellow) formalize peer review training and build the next generation of reviewers.Good reviews improve papers – The best reports give concrete, actionable suggestions and ask whether results justify conclusions—not just reject.Know your expertise – Reviewers should ask editors if unsure about fit; editors can pair a statistician with a biologist, for example.Timeliness is critical – Accept or decline quickly; revision reviews should be fast since they only assess whether authors addressed prior comments.Stay connected with SLAS:www.slas.org | Facebook | X | LinkedIn | Instagram | YouTubeAbout SLASSLAS (Society for Laboratory Automation and Screening) is an international professional society of academic, industry and government life sciences researchers and the developers and providers of laboratory automation technology.

    Mary welcomes back JB Hixson to hopefully play a role in stemming the tide of rampant biblical illiteracy.  If social media has accomplished anything, it’s been to pull the curtain back on all the would-be influencers and click bait addicts who think they know something about God’s grand design when actually many know absolutely nothing but don’t want you to know that. Today with JB we take a look at the major themes of the bible: Creation, Conflict, Covenants, Conquests, Captivities, Incarnation, the Cross, the Church and the Culmination of all things. Some might say, all that matters is that we agree on the gospel. Well, it can also be true that the saving gospel comes to us in the fullness of time, but also that much more can and must be learned about how we got there, from the promise in Genesis 3:15 to “it is finished”. It’s a full and glorious revelation! Let’s never forget the whole counsel, the big picture – and study to show ourselves approved.       Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

    In this episode, I answer a question about an 11-year-old who repeatedly tells his therapist, "You don't really want to spend time with me," "You'd rather be somewhere else," and "You're only doing this for the money." Rather than treating these statements as questions that need to be answered or beliefs that need to be corrected, I explain why we need to look underneath them. For this child, these comments may reveal much deeper struggles with self-esteem, self-worth, identity, vulnerability, and trust in the relationship. He wants to believe the therapist genuinely enjoys being with him, but his own view of himself makes that difficult to accept. I also explore an important balance in CCPT: remaining adherent without becoming unnatural in the playroom. Sometimes reflecting content is enough; other times, a simple statement of fact or relational truth—"I'm here playing with you" or "I like spending time with you"—allows us to respond genuinely without taking over the conversation or rescuing the child from their feelings. The key is understanding why the child is asking and responding to the deeper work rather than getting caught up in the literal question.

    In this episode of Resilience Unravelled with Dr Russell Thackeray, Antonio Michael Downing discusses growing up in Trinidad and Tobago with his grandmother, who taught him to read from the King James Bible and to sing Anglican hymns, before her death led to his move at age 11 to rural Northern Ontario.He describes the shock of migration, being renamed “Michael” at school, and how losing familiar culture and language prompted questions about identity, belonging, and the self, shaping a lifelong focus on fluid identity and resilience.Downing links resilience to flexibility and performance across contexts, from multiple musical personas to a corporate career at BlackBerry, and notes that those who migrate between ages 9–14 often become “a third thing” between cultures.He connects these themes to his memoir Saga Boy and novel Black Cherokee, explains his creative process as a “visitation,” and shares that Black Cherokee has an Audible audiobook, a paperback coming in August, and that he can be reached on Instagram @antoniomichaeldowning.00:00 Welcome and Introductions01:24 Growing Up in Trinidad02:22 Grandmother's Gifts04:26 Move to Canada07:01 Reinventing Identity11:17 Neither Here Nor There13:45 Two Jackets Life19:08 Resilience Through Fluidity23:13 Themes in Music and Books26:24 Toronto and Belonging28:37 Writing as Visitation33:35 Books Formats and Where to Find34:53 Final Thanks and GoodbyeYou can contact us at info@qedod.comResources can be found online or link to our website https://resilienceunravelled.com#resilience, #burnout, #intuition

    In this episode, I talk about something I hear constantly from child-centered play therapists: "I'm the only CCPT in my office, I wasn't prepared to work with children, and I feel like I'm figuring this out by myself." Too many therapists are leaving graduate school and immediately being handed child clients without meaningful training in how to work with them. We try to fill those gaps with books, podcasts, conferences, and trainings, but Landreth identified something more than 20 years ago that remains essential today: video review is the path toward mastery in CCPT. I explain why training alone can give us information, but it can't show us what we're actually doing when we're sitting across from a child in the playroom. Having an experienced CCPT watch your sessions allows you to see where you're adherent, identify where you need to grow, and develop the confidence and competence that come from intentionally practicing the model over time. Whether that happens through coaching, mentorship, community, or reviewing your own sessions, my encouragement is simple: don't try to master CCPT alone.

    Episode Summary: In this special bonus episode of "With All Due Respect," Megan Powell Du Toit and Michael Jensen dive into a discussion about Christopher Nolan's 2026 film, "The Odyssey." This adaptation of Homer's ancient Greek epic is dissected through the lenses of both the original text's themes and contemporary interpretations, offering listeners a rich tapestry of theological and cultural insights. Key Takeaways: Modern Adaptations of Classic Epics: Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey" provokes dialogue not only about its faithfulness to Homer's epic but also its reinterpretation in a contemporary context. Themes of Guilt and Atonement: The film explores psychological and spiritual depth, highlighting Odysseus's journey through guilt and atonement as a reflection of modern sensibilities influenced by Christian thought. Hospitality's Role in Society: The concept of hospitality is critically examined, both as a part of Homer's world and in its implications for today's global and often divided landscapes. Cultural Relevance and Critique: The discourse reflects on how adaptations resonate with current socio-political climates, posing questions about home, belonging, and societal norms. Lewis and Tolkien's Influence: There is a discussion on how ancient longings reflected in texts like "The Odyssey" find answers in the Christian gospel, drawing parallels with the works of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. Notable Quotes: "When you're using source material like this… I'm really, I really enjoy a reworking." – Megan Powell Du Toit "The goodies turn out to be the baddies… evil lurking in your own heart." – Michael Jensen "Guilt and atonement… how Christian are those themes." – Michael Jensen "Home is a place that is safe for you and yours, but also must have that permeable border." – Megan Powell Du Toit "There is no real atonement possible, even in Nolan's epic." – Megan Powell Du Toit See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Welcome back, my deliciously dirty listeners, to another steamy episode of Nikky After Dark. Tonight's confessions are all about being used on purpose, coming home still wet, and refusing to wipe it off.You'll hear a woman walk into an unlocked hotel room, put on the waiting blindfold, and let a voice she will never see use every toy she packed—then her mouth, both holes, and her virgin ass while the wand stays pinned to her clit. A babysitter on a family Cancun trip matches with a married man, gets his wife's panties stuffed in her mouth, and comes on their couch while the wife sleeps twenty feet away. A boyfriend helps pick the dress, stays home on purpose, and comes faster than usual when she walks back in still dripping and tells him the truth.Plus: a six-year cuckold couple who never tiptoed, a husband who watched his very bi wife drop her panties for a stranger and forget the gorgeous woman in the room, a hotwife who wants to be glazed and still his, a wife pulled out of on purpose so her husband can see her leak, a birthday swallow in blue lingerie, a public cum-walk fantasy she refuses to clean up, and the raw ache of waking up baked and empty.This episode is explicit, consensual, 18+, and unapologetically filthy. Themes include anonymous stranger play, hotwife/cuckold, vacation risk, first anal, swallowing, public mess, MMF desire, and the look on the person who already loves you.
