Kit Chellel is an investigative journalist, Bloomberg Businessweek writer, and author of Lucky Devils. After uncovering a hidden world of elite professional gamblers who consistently beat casinos, sportsbooks, and betting markets, Kit spent years researching how these "advantage players" think—and discovered their mindset has applications far beyond gambling. In this episode, he shares the surprising parallels between betting, investing, entrepreneurship, and decision-making under uncertainty. On this episode we talk about: How elite advantage gamblers consistently profit from betting markets Why gambling, investing, and entrepreneurship all rely on finding an edge The surprising history of computer-driven sports betting and advantage play How AI is transforming sports betting and predictive markets Lessons entrepreneurs can learn about risk management, probability, and making better decisions Top 3 Takeaways The world's best gamblers don't rely on luck—they rely on data, probability, discipline, and finding small edges that compound over time. Thinking in probabilities instead of certainties leads to better business, investing, and career decisions. Rather than betting everything on one opportunity, consistently making many well-calculated bets increases your chances of long-term success. Notable Quotes "They're not like normal gamblers. They're much more like sophisticated investors or hedge funds." "Failure is built into their mindset." "The best thing you can do is be bold enough to take lots of good bets."

Welcome back to Talking Marketing. This is season 2, episode 1. In a hyper-crowded market, generic campaigns are white noise. If you want to win enterprise-level accounts, you have to treat them like a market of one.  On this episode, I am joined by award-winning marketing executive and strategist Sloan Newman to discuss his brand new book, "The Relationship Revolution: Mastering 1:1 Account-Based Management." Sloan breaks down exactly how to move away from rigid dashboards and transition toward human-centered, high-impact engagement that secures multi-million dollar pipelines. What we cover:

7/15/2026 THE WEALTHY MINDSET: THINKING LIKE A LEGACY BUILDEREPISODE 1824“Before the bank account will grow, a leader must grow themselves, their people skills and then grow their people.” J Loren NorrisThe Wealthy Mindset: Thinking Like a Legacy BuilderTo possess a wealthy mindset in leadership means you have the skills and abilities to access and perceive the most valuable assets, investments and opportunities. Often that means ways for your money to make babies. More often it means investing in the right people. The more we engage tools, the fewer people we may employ. This means the selection process must be even better. Investing in IQ, EQ and PQ will prove to be essential in coming years as AGI attempts to refashion EQ. Focus on resource stewardship, long-term vision, and building people over profits.As Paul Martinelli says often “Most people don't have a resources problem, they have a resourcefulness problem.” Wealthy is less about accumulation and more about execution. RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO:

What if the thing keeping your coaching business stuck isn't your content but the way you're thinking about sales?   In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm kicking off a brand-new five-part series called Sold Before the Call, where I'm breaking down the sales mindset and systems I believe the coaching industry has been missing.   When I first started my coaching business, I thought my biggest job was becoming a great coach. What I wasn't prepared for was all the other hats I'd have to wear—copywriter, content creator, marketer, CEO...and the one role nobody really talks about: salesperson.   The truth is, being a great coach and building a successful coaching business are two completely different skill sets. So today I'm sharing why sales isn't a one-time event that happens on a discovery call. It's a mindset. It's a daily practice. And it's the difference between coaches who hope clients show up and coaches who know how to create consistent revenue.   I'll also walk you through the daily habits of top-performing sales professionals, how to shift from passive to active energy, and why learning to think like a sales rep doesn't make you pushy—it makes you a better business owner.   If you've been spending more time perfecting your content than intentionally creating sales opportunities, then this episode is for you.   Resources Mentioned: Join The Selling Sprint interest list: https://products.ambershaw.com/signature-waitlist   What I Discuss: 00:59 The many hats coaches wear and the one most people avoid 02:26 Why sales isn't a single event, but a daily mindset 03:10 Why I created the Sold Before the Call series 07:00 A preview of my new Selling Sprint program 07:59 The trap of avoiding sales by staying "busy" with other tasks 10:25 The commission-based mindset that changed how I approach business 13:13 The daily habits every coach can borrow from great sales reps 16:47 Why follow-up, tracking your numbers, and knowing your pipeline matter 21:03 A self-audit to help you identify where you're being passive in your business 22:26 Your homework before Part 2 of the series 24:04 What's coming next in Sold Before the Call   Find more from Amber Shaw: Instagram: @msambershaw Website: ambershaw.com

Whether you're just starting out or feeling overwhelmed by your finances, this conversation offers actionable steps to simplify your systems, reduce stress, and make smarter decisions for your business. From setting up an LLC to leveraging tools like QuickBooks and knowing when to outsource, you'll walk away with a clearer path forward.

There's a room you're not yet in. Maybe it's a literal room — the board meeting, the investor briefing, the conversation at the level above yours where decisions get made that shape your organization and your career. Maybe it's more of a concept — the level of credibility where people seek out your perspective rather than just your report. Where you're consulted, not just informed. Becoming a trusted advisor to a board is one of those topics that sounds like it belongs to a specific career stage. But the behaviors, habits, and communication patterns that make someone genuinely valuable at board level are not developed the week before you need them. They're built over years — and the leader who starts now will be genuinely ready when the moment comes. In this episode of Leading Women in Tech, Toni Collis breaks down exactly what board-level credibility looks like, how it's built, and what you can start doing right now — wherever you are in your career. This is for you if:   ➡️  You're the leader actively working toward the C-suite who knows the board relationship is her frontier ➡️  You're the woman considering fractional work, NED roles, or an encore career — and who needs to understand how to position herself for board-level advisory work ➡️  You're the Director or VP who's not thinking about boards yet — and who is going to leave this episode with the most immediately actionable content, because the seeds of board credibility are planted years before the harvest What's covered: ➡️  What being a trusted advisor actually means — and why the conventional picture is wrong. Boards don't want information providers. They want people who help them think. ➡️  What boards actually want from an advisor — the real version, not the official one. Five specific capabilities that make someone genuinely valuable in a board context, including pattern recognition, intellectual honesty under pressure, and executive listening ➡️  The communication shift that changes everything — stop leading with the what and start leading with the so what. The four-part trusted advisor structure that works in any high-stakes senior room ➡️  How to build the relationships that create board-level credibility — including why most people start too late, how to be useful before you make an ask, and why making your thinking visible is one of the most effective career investments available to you ➡️  What you can start doing right now — five specific behaviors for the earlier-career listener that compound into board-level credibility over time. Including reading the rooms above yours, practicing strategic language in every meeting you're already in, and volunteering for board-visible work ➡️  The fractional and encore career dimension — how to translate your experience into board language, how to be findable for the right roles, and how to build the portfolio of evidence that boards and fractional hiring organizations are actually looking for   Whether you want the C-suite, a non-executive director role, a fractional career, or you just want to be the kind of leader who gets consulted rather than just informed — this episode gives you the framework.   Further listening (related episodes) ⏹️  Episode 286 — Executive Presence for Women in Tech: https://tonicollis.com/leading-women-tech/286-executive-presence-for-women-in-tech ⏹️  Episode 292 — From Tactical to Strategic: The Unspoken Rules for Women Stepping Into Executive Leadership: https://tonicollis.com/leading-women-tech/291-c-level-leadership-for-women-in-tech ⏹️  Episode 238 — Thinking Like an Executive: From Firefighter to Strategist: https://tonicollis.com/leading-women-tech/238-thinking-like-an-executive-from-firefighter-to-strategist ⏹️  Episode 241 — Thinking Like an Executive: Setting Priorities as an Executive: https://tonicollis.com/leading-women-tech/241-thinking-like-an-executive-setting-priorities ⏹️  Episode 236 — Thinking Like an Executive: Cultivating Your Executive Presence: https://tonicollis.com/leading-women-tech/236-thinking-like-an-executive-cultivating-executive-presence ⏹️  Episode 291 — C-Level Leadership for Women in Tech: What It Really Takes to Thrive: https://tonicollis.com/leading-women-tech/291-c-level-leadership-for-women-in-tech ⏹️  Episode 256 — No More Crickets: The Networking Strategy That Lands Jobs in 2025: https://tonicollis.com/leading-women-tech/256-networking-strategy-lands-jobs ⏹️  Episode 284 — Am I Ready to Be a Fractional Leader?: https://tonicollis.com/leading-women-tech/am-i-ready-for-fractional/ ⏹️  Episode 288 — How to Position Yourself as a Fractional Leader: https://tonicollis.com/leading-women-tech/288-fractional-leadership-positioning/ ⏹️  Episode 289 — How Fractional Leaders Actually Get Hired: https://tonicollis.com/leading-women-tech/289-how-fractional-leaders-get-hired/   Book a complimentary strategy call: tonicollis.com/lets-chat

What separates entrepreneurs who build lasting companies from those who never make it past the idea stage? In this compilation episode, Travis Chappell highlights conversations with three founders who built wildly successful businesses by solving overlooked problems, embracing strategic pivots, and executing with relentless focus. Featuring Tom Szaky of TerraCycle, Eric Huberman of Hawk Media, and Brian Keller of Auro Water, this episode is packed with practical lessons on scaling businesses, validating ideas, raising capital, and creating products people genuinely want. On this episode we talk about: How Tom Szaky transformed TerraCycle from a niche fertilizer business into a global recycling company by completely reinventing its business model. Why Eric Huberman believes understanding customer value is more important than charging based on your own assumptions. How Brian Keller identified a gap in the water filtration market and built a premium direct-to-consumer brand from the ground up. The importance of validating demand, building an audience before launch, and creating products that solve real problems. Why successful entrepreneurs aren't afraid to pivot when they discover a better opportunity. Top 3 Takeaways Great entrepreneurs stay committed to solving the problem—not necessarily to their original business model. Your pricing should reflect the value you create for customers, not simply the time or effort you invest. Building demand before launching a product can dramatically accelerate growth and reduce risk once you go to market. Notable Quotes "We realized we weren't in the fertilizer business—we were in the business of solving waste." "You can't bring your preconceived notions of what value means to somebody else." "If we make it beautiful, simple to use, and solve a real problem, people will naturally want to share it."

In this compilation episode, Travis revisits three standout conversations with entrepreneurs who have built extraordinary businesses by spotting opportunities before everyone else. From Chris Hunter, the co-founder of Four Loko and CEO of Koya, to drone industry pioneer Damon Darnell and cybersecurity entrepreneur Rick Jordan, each guest shares practical lessons on innovation, identifying market gaps, and building scalable businesses. Whether you're launching your first venture or looking for your next opportunity, this episode is packed with entrepreneurial wisdom. On this episode we talk about: How Chris Hunter builds and scales category-defining consumer brands by identifying emerging trends. Why the drone industry remains a massive opportunity for aspiring entrepreneurs despite years of growth. Low-cost business ideas that can generate six figures using drone technology. How Rick Jordan built a recurring revenue business and reinvented himself after a life-changing health scare. The importance of curiosity, personal branding, and staying adaptable as an entrepreneur. Top 3 Takeaways Great entrepreneurs stay relentlessly curious, paying attention to changing consumer behavior and emerging trends before the rest of the market catches on. Some of the best business opportunities exist in industries that are still largely underserved, where simple, practical solutions can create significant value. Building a business is only part of the journey—creating recurring revenue, developing a personal brand, and continuously reinventing yourself are what lead to long-term success. Notable Quotes "What we're inherently good at isn't always obvious to us." "Finding that curiosity middle road has been valuable to me." "The visibility that I was building for myself preceded what I needed the visibility for."

What counts as a podcast episode is a more open question than most people realise. The medium has evolved — from RSS-only audio on Apple devices (iTunes) to video-first vertical content filmed in a bedroom — and with that evolution, so has the range of what a podcast episode can actually look like. A three-minute focused answer, a segment clipped from a longer interview, a repurposed coaching hot seat: all of these qualify. Most podcasters just haven't given themselves permission to try them.In this episode, I'm walking through 10 formats that are consistently underused by podcasters I work with — and it's not because they're complicated, but because they challenge the default assumption that a podcast has to be long, polished, and produced from scratch every single time.Plus, the episodes that tend to stick with listeners — the ones they remember, the ones they go back to — are rarely the ones that covered everything. They're the ones that nailed one thing, clearly, in exactly the time it took to say it.Resources mentioned in this episode:For the full list of links, resources and show notes, please visit:https://www.thepodcastspace.com/podcast/s5-117-to-be-or-not-to-be-a-podcast-episode-10-formats-that-will-expand-what-you-think-is-possible-contentcontent-strategycontent-repurposing

Supreme Court ignores Judge Newman's rights. ----- All the news that's fit to print agrees that Todd Blanche isn't fit to head the Department of Justice. Something about the whole transforming the DOJ into a weaponized arm of Donald Trump's political grievances thing. The Supreme Court dodged the ongoing Judge Pauline Newman debacle in the Federal Circuit. Her fellow judges have performed an end run around the Constitution, and the rest of the judiciary seems content to just look the other way.

Predicting the Future: AI, Geopolitics & Better Decision Making w/ Anthony Vinci of VICO - AZ TRT S07 EP10 (292) 6-28-2026       What We Learned This Week Think in Probabilities Great decision-makers don't predict one future. They prepare for multiple possible futures. Look for Leading Indicators Government budgets, regulations, elections, trade policy, and geopolitical developments often signal future trends before markets fully respond. AI Is Becoming a Strategic Advisor AI is increasingly functioning as a research assistant, intelligence analyst, and scenario-planning tool—not just a content generator. Everything Is Connected Politics, economics, technology, energy, and national security influence one another more than ever before. Understanding those relationships creates a competitive advantage. Focus on Second-Order Effects Many investors react to headlines. The bigger opportunities often lie in anticipating the ripple effects that follow.     AZ TRT Podcast Predictive Forecasting: AI, Geopolitics & Better Decision Making Guest: Anthony Vinci Links: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthony-vinci/ https://www.anthonyvinci.com/ https://www.vico.io/ Anthony Vinci is the Founder and CEO of VICO, an AI-powered forecasting company that helps governments, financial institutions, and corporations assess political, geopolitical, and economic event risk. Rather than predicting a single outcome, VICO converts news, expert analysis, and real-world signals into probability-based forecasts to improve decision-making. Before founding VICO, Anthony served as the first Chief Technology Officer of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), where he led the integration of artificial intelligence into U.S. intelligence operations. He also held senior leadership roles at Bridgewater Associates and Cerberus Capital Management, focusing on technology, national security, aerospace, and strategic investments. Anthony is the author of The Fourth Intelligence Revolution, recognized by the Financial Times as one of the Best Books of 2025. His work focuses on the intersection of AI, intelligence, geopolitics, and global finance. Theme Today's world moves faster than ever. Political events, wars, technological breakthroughs, trade policy, and artificial intelligence all create ripple effects throughout the economy and financial markets. The question isn't simply: "What will happen?" Instead, it's: "What are the most likely outcomes, and how should we prepare for them?" That is the foundation of predictive forecasting. Segment 1 The World Has Become an Event-Driven Economy One of the biggest themes discussed was how major events rarely stay isolated. Instead, they create ripple effects throughout politics, economics, and financial markets. Examples from 2026 include: The conflict involving Iran Concerns over the Strait of Hormuz disrupting global shipping Oil price volatility Inflation concerns AI adoption across industries Global trade tensions For example, if shipping through the Strait of Hormuz were disrupted, the effects could extend far beyond oil: higher energy prices increased transportation costs higher inflation pressure on consumer spending lower corporate profits political consequences during the 2026 midterm elections One geopolitical event can trigger dozens of second- and third-order consequences. Narrative Economics Markets increasingly react to information almost instantly. News travels within seconds through: X (Twitter) social media financial news AI-generated analysis Sometimes markets move more from the narrative than from the underlying facts. The speed of information has increased volatility. AI as an Intelligence Analyst AI is evolving beyond a simple chatbot. Examples discussed: Claude drafting emails in seconds ChatGPT analyzing massive amounts of information AI summarizing research AI identifying patterns humans might overlook Rather than replacing executives, AI increasingly acts like an executive assistant or intelligence analyst that can evaluate possible outcomes and estimate probabilities. Segment 2 Forecasting Through Leading Indicators One of Anthony's core ideas is that forecasting begins with identifying early signals rather than reacting after events occur. Examples include: Government Spending Watching federal budgets provides clues about future economic priorities. For example: A proposal to increase defense spending from roughly $1 trillion toward $1.5 trillion could benefit industries such as: aerospace defense contractors cybersecurity satellite technology Markets often recognize these trends before the spending actually occurs. Elections Forecasting elections isn't just about polling. Leading indicators include: redistricting economic conditions inflation employment approval ratings legislative trends These become measurable inputs rather than opinions. Tariffs and Trade Tariffs and sanctions affect: supply chains inflation manufacturing exports corporate earnings Rather than relying solely on headlines, investors can monitor government announcements and policy developments as early indicators. VICO Anthony explained that VICO was created to help organizations answer questions like: "What happens if tariffs increase?" "What happens if a regional conflict expands?" "What happens if inflation persists?" Instead of producing opinions, the platform attempts to quantify probabilities so businesses can make better strategic decisions. Current users include: investment firms hedge funds insurance companies corporations government agencies The platform is also available through Bloomberg Terminal. Segment 3 Thinking Like an Intelligence Officer Anthony explained that investing and intelligence analysis are surprisingly similar. Neither profession knows the future with certainty. Instead, both attempt to improve decision-making through probabilities. Questions include: What's the upside? What's the downside? What scenarios exist? What is the probability of each? Instead of asking for certainty, professionals ask for better odds. AI as a Thought Partner Rather than replacing human judgment, AI becomes another analyst at the table. It helps: challenge assumptions compare scenarios estimate probabilities reduce emotional decision-making The objective isn't perfect predictions. It's consistently making better-informed decisions. Indicators and Warnings (I&W) Government intelligence agencies constantly monitor "Indicators and Warnings." Examples include: military activity cyber threats terrorism supply chain disruptions political instability The same thinking can apply to investors and business owners by identifying leading indicators before markets fully react. Rare Earth Minerals A fascinating discussion centered on rare earth materials. These minerals are essential for: semiconductors missiles satellites electric vehicles MRI and CT scanners advanced electronics Although called "rare," many are relatively abundant. The challenge is that mining and processing are concentrated in a handful of countries, particularly China. This explains why governments increasingly view domestic production as a national security issue. Segment 4 Second- and Third-Order Effects One of the strongest concepts discussed was cascading consequences. Instead of focusing only on one event, ask: "What happens next?" Example: Conflict with Iran↓ Shipping disruptions↓ Higher oil prices↓ Higher transportation costs↓ Inflation↓ Reduced consumer spending↓ Lower corporate earnings↓ Market volatility↓ Political consequences↓ Policy changes Understanding these chains of events helps improve forecasting. AI Regulation AI is both part of the opportunity and part of the risk. Potential future regulations may focus on: cybersecurity national security privacy export controls access to advanced AI models computing infrastructure One challenge will be balancing innovation with security while remaining globally competitive. Anthony noted that governments may have access to AI capabilities that are not immediately available to the private sector, highlighting the strategic importance of advanced AI systems.   Closing Thought One of the biggest lessons from this conversation is that forecasting isn't about predicting the future with certainty—it's about improving the quality of your decisions. The best investors, business leaders, and intelligence professionals don't rely on opinions alone. They gather data, monitor leading indicators, evaluate multiple scenarios, and assign probabilities to each possible outcome. In an increasingly interconnected world, those who think like forecasters rather than reactors will be better positioned to navigate uncertainty and identify opportunities before the crowd.         Tech Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Tech-Startup-VC-Cybersecurity-Energy-Science  Best of Tech: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=best+of+tech   'Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT      Thanks for Listening.

Send us Fan MailAfter my conversation with Haren Bhakta, I found myself thinking about something much bigger than investing.Ownership.In this episode of After The Conversation, I reflect on the ideas that stood out most from our discussion about investing, leadership, founder-led companies, and what it means to think like an owner.We talked about the stock market, the S&P 500, insider ownership, and why some investors believe companies led by people with significant ownership stakes may make better long-term decisions.But the deeper question that stayed with me was this:How does ownership change behavior?Whether we're talking about businesses, investing, leadership, or life itself, people often make different decisions when they have skin in the game.In this episode, I share what resonated with me, where I'm still wrestling with the ideas, and why I think reflection is one of the most valuable parts of any meaningful conversation.Topics discussed:• My reflections on the conversation with Haren Bhakta• Why ownership changes incentives• Thinking like an owner versus thinking like a consumer• Founder-led companies and long-term decision-making• Does a company change when its founder leaves?• What investors often overlook• The importance of consistency in investing• Where I agreed—and where I'm still thinking• Lessons about trust, leadership, and responsibilityThe goal of After The Conversation isn't to reach a final conclusion.It's to slow down, think deeply, and continue the conversation after the microphones are turned off.Because understanding doesn't end when the episode does.Social Media:Insta/X: kyleTHEhortonYoutube: KyletalkssTiktok: KyleTalkssIntro: Head In The Clouds by Matthew MorelockOutro: Surfaces Type Beat - Jellyfish BeatsSupport the show

And a new ranking of top law schools. ------ Above the Law's Top 50 Law School rankings are out and a new school tops the list. But a number of other high prestige law schools have slipped out of the top 10... and it's mostly a matter of cost. Meanwhile, we have two federal judges out of control. Judge Ryan Nelson faces misdemeanor criminal charges over a parking lot altercation, which would be a bad look for a federal judge, but not nearly as egregious as his parking job. And we have more on the Eleanor Ross drama, after her initial "apology letters" went public and prompted the Eleventh Circuit to find a new opportunity to look the other way.

In Episode 347, the season finale of the Glass and Out Podcast, we revisit our conversation with the head coach of the Stanley Cup champion Carolina Hurricanes, Rod Brind'Amour. Back in 2019, Brind'Amour was just in his second season as head coach of Carolina and fresh off leading a young Canes team to its first playoff appearance in nine seasons. Fast forward to today, and he is now a Stanley Cup champion as both a player and a coach. This was one of our favourite episodes of all time, and we thought it was the perfect way to honour Brind'Amour and his incredible journey. A special thank you to everyone who tuned in this season. We can't wait to get back at it in September for Season 10! Listen as he shares why it's important to think like a player as a coach, how to get creative when delivering your message, and why coaches should avoid looking in the rearview mirror.

David Leiter, author of Stop Making Stupid Investments and founder of The Ultimate Investor, joins Travis to share lessons from more than 30 years of investing in stocks and multifamily real estate. After experiencing both financial success and painful investment mistakes, David developed a disciplined approach inspired by Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. In this conversation, he breaks down the difference between productive and speculative assets, explains why so many investors lose money chasing trends, and shares timeless principles that can help everyday investors build lasting wealth. On this episode we talk about: David's journey from going broke to building wealth through real estate investing Lessons learned from working at Credit Suisse during the dot-com bubble The difference between productive and unproductive assets Why investors repeatedly lose money chasing hot trends and market hype Practical investing principles inspired by Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger Top 3 Takeaways Successful investing starts with understanding the value of an asset, not simply following price movements or market excitement. Productive assets—such as businesses and income-producing real estate—create wealth because they generate cash flow and earnings over time. The best investors learn to be contrarian, buying quality assets when others are fearful rather than chasing opportunities when everyone is excited. Notable Quotes "If you do something right, you've done the work, potentially it pays you forever." "The biggest problem is time. Every mistake delays the power of compounding."

For decades, many Christians have been taught to think of themselves as outsiders in a culture they can no longer influence. But is that mindset actually biblical? this episode of The Worldview, Alex Kocman sits down with Chase Davis to discuss what it means for Christians to "assume the center" and live with confidence in an increasingly disordered age. They discuss: • Why Christianity should be viewed as normal rather than marginal • How believers can resist despair, cynicism, and resentment • The relationship between faithfulness and cultural influence • Building strong families, churches, and communities • Why Christian men must recover courage, responsibility, and agency • Evangelism, discipleship, and long-term cultural engagement • What it means to live as if Christ truly reigns If you've ever wondered whether Christians should withdraw from culture or engage it with confidence, this conversation is for you.

CardioNerds (Drs. Rawan Amir, Tripti Gupta, and Alysha Joseph) discuss the fundamentals of adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) surgery with Dr. Elizabeth Stephens.  Audio editing by CardioNerds academy intern, Grace Qiu.  Using a case of a young adult undergoing a Ross procedure, the episode walks through what happens in the operating room—from induction and intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), myocardial protection, and surgical repair. The discussion highlights key concepts including cardioplegia, cross-clamp and bypass times, hypothermic circulatory arrest, and the complexity of redo sternotomy. This episode provides learners with a practical framework to interpret operative reports, anticipate postoperative physiology, and better collaborate with surgical teams. This episode was produced by the CardioNerds ACHD Council and planned by Dr. Rawan Amir.  CardioNerds Adult Congenital Heart Disease PageCardioNerds Episode Page Pearls “LV distension kills patients.”Preventing left ventricular distension with appropriate venting and awareness of aortic insufficiency is critical to intraoperative safety.  TEE can change the surgical plan in real time.Findings such as underestimated aortic regurgitation, mitral pathology, or a PFO may directly alter cannulation and cardioplegia strategy.  Cross-clamp time = myocardial ischemic time; bypass time = systemic stress.Both are key predictors of postoperative complications including renal injury, bleeding, and ventricular dysfunction.  Redo sternotomy risk is driven by anatomy, not just number.Aorta adherent to the sternum, conduit position, and chamber pressurization define risk more than the number of prior surgeries.  Think longitudinally—ACHD surgery is lifetime planning.Surgical materials and strategies must account for future interventions, especially in younger patients. Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Alysha Joseph, aided by generative artificial intelligence. What are the key steps in congenital cardiac surgery from incision to closure? Preoperative planning is multidisciplinary, involving surgeon, anesthesia, cardiology, and ICU teams; high-risk inductions (e.g., critical AS, Williams syndrome) are identified early TEE is performed immediately after induction to reassess anatomy and may reveal new findings (e.g., underestimated AI, mitral disease, PFO) Median sternotomy is performed, followed by creation of a pericardial well to optimize exposure Heparin is administered prior to cannulation; arterial and venous cannulas are placed for initiation of CPB Cross-clamp is applied and cardioplegia delivered to arrest the heart, allowing a still and protected operative field Surgical repair (e.g., Ross procedure) is performed, followed by de-airing, cross-clamp removal, and reperfusion Patient is weaned from bypass with TEE reassessment, hemostasis achieved, and chest closed What is cardioplegia and how is it delivered? Cardioplegia is a potassium-rich solution that arrests myocardial activity and reduces metabolic demand Most commonly used solution in the U.S. is Del Nido cardioplegia, originally developed for pediatric myocardium Delivery strategies include: Antegrade (via aortic root) – standard approach  Ostial (direct coronary delivery) – used when aortic root cannot be relied upon  Retrograde (via coronary sinus) – useful in severe AI or coronary disease NOTE: Severe aortic regurgitation can impair antegrade delivery and requires alternative strategies and LV venting  What do cross-clamp time and bypass time represent clinically? Cross-clamp time = duration of myocardial ischemia while the heart is arrested Bypass time = total duration on CPB, reflecting systemic exposure to non-physiologic circulation Prolonged cross-clamp time (>2–3 hours) increases risk of myocardial dysfunction, especially with poor baseline function Longer bypass time is associated with increased risk of renal injury, coagulopathy, and bleeding These metrics often reflect both case complexity and intraoperative challenges What is hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) and when is it used? HCA involves complete cessation of blood flow to allow a bloodless surgical field Typically used in complex aortic arch repairs Patients are cooled to ~18°C to reduce metabolic demand and protect organs Duration is ideally limited to

Paul Pierce is an NBA Hall of Famer, NBA Champion, Finals MVP, and one of the 75 greatest players in basketball history. In this episode, Travis breaks down the biggest lessons he learned from his conversation with Paul, exploring how elite performers use goal setting, environment design, relentless work ethic, and an underdog mentality to achieve extraordinary success. Whether you're building a business, advancing your career, or pursuing a personal goal, Paul's journey offers valuable insights into what it takes to perform at the highest level. On this episode we talk about: Why short-term goals are the foundation of long-term success How your environment shapes your habits, decisions, and outcomes The difference between talent and the work required to maximize it Using rejection, setbacks, and being underestimated as motivation Why appreciating success in the moment is harder—and more important—than most people realize Top 3 Takeaways Focus on the next step, not the entire staircase. Long-term success is built through a series of achievable short-term goals that create momentum and confidence. Design your environment for success. It's easier to build winning habits when your surroundings support your goals rather than constantly tempt you away from them. Talent only creates opportunity. Consistent effort, discipline, and work ethic are what separate high performers from everyone else at the highest levels. Notable Quotes "Short-term goals are the engine of long-term greatness." "Control your environment before it controls you." "Talent without work is just potential—and potential does not make Hall of Famers."

A federal judge carried on a two-year affair with a high-ranking law enforcement officer by having sex in chambers and lying about it to investigators. The Eleventh Circuit responded with a private reprimand, concealing the judge's identity. But the judges didn't think through their anonymization strategy nearly well enough and AI cracked the case in minutes, revealing Judge Eleanor Ross of the Northern District of Georgia. Meanwhile, in lawyer ethics, a bar complaint in New York focuses on Todd Blanche, citing the ruling out of Tennessee finding a presumptively vindictive prosecution of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. And down in Florida, the scores of former judges and other professionals behind the complaint against Pam Bondi -- that Florida previously punted, claiming that it couldn't investigate a sitting Attorney General -- renewed the call, noting that Bondi may be many things, but she's definitely not the Attorney General anymore.

What if one of the most important skills for supporting your dog's wellbeing was learning how to observe more closely?In this fascinating and wide-ranging conversation, I sit down with professional classical homeopath Lucy Reynolds to explore the world of homeopathy—for our dogs, ourselves, and the animals in our care.Whether you're completely new to homeopathy, cautiously curious, or already have remedies in your cupboard, this episode offers a thoughtful introduction to the principles behind this often misunderstood modality.With a background as an Army officer and helicopter pilot, Lucy brings a uniquely analytical and methodical approach to homeopathy. Together, we explore what it means to "think like a homeopath," how homeopathy differs from herbal medicine, where it can sit alongside conventional veterinary and medical care, and why observation is one of the most powerful tools available to any guardian.Lucy also shares her experience working with farmers through Homeopathy at Wellie Level (HAWL), helping empower animal caretakers to use homeopathy confidently within their own care protocols.One of my favourite parts of this conversation is Lucy's practical deep dive into homeopathic remedies. She shares the remedies she recommends keeping on hand for both humans and dogs, how to think about when they might be useful, and practical guidance around dosing and administration.This episode beautifully complements my recent conversation with Dr Lise Hansen, offering another perspective on what it means to approach health through the lens of the whole individual rather than simply managing symptoms.Connect with Lucy ReynoldsWebsite: https://www.theclassicalhomeopath.com/aboutInstagram: https://instagram.com/theclassicalhomeopathArticle Lucy mentioned: https://www.theclassicalhomeopath.com/post/the-hushed-homeopathic-leptospirosis-outbreak-trial-that-you-didn-t-know-existedHomeopathic Research Institute: https://www.hri-research.org/Homeopathy 247 https://homeopathy247.com/Connect with me!Website: https://mysticdogmama.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/mysticdogmamaCome join my free Facebook group, First Light.

At The Mining Event of the North conference in Quebec City, MSE host Bill Powers interviews strategic resource investor Michael Gentile about his long-term, venture-capital style approach to junior mining. Michael says that 90% of his net worth is currently in junior mining stocks and he is still deploying cash into new positions. Gentile says his major win in Northern Superior Resources and a takeout of Arizona Sonoran validated and de-risked his process, and he plans to redeploy the gains while maintaining a 5 to 10-year horizon and diversified portfolio of about 35 companies, with deeper involvement in 15–20 issuers. He explains his risk control (starting with ~1% positions, adding to ~5% if aligned), the importance of management, cap-table quality, infrastructure, and disciplined technical due diligence via expert networks. Gentile discusses financings (holds vs “life” deals, avoiding life-with-warrant fast money), common retail mistakes (impatience and poor timing), commodity preferences (mostly gold/silver, some copper), and how his faith influences his work and charitable plans through the Apostles Fund. 00:00 Intro 00:40 Northern Superior Win 01:24 Venture Capital Playbook 04:30 Hands on Value Add 05:51 When Management Fails 08:19 Cap Table 09:46 Life Financing Debate 12:38 Process Refinements 14:36 Site Visits 16:35 Network Driven Due Diligence 19:54 Protect downside or seek upside? 22:26 Retail Mistakes Patience 25:18 Thinking Like a Major 27:24 Commodity Mix and Cycles 29:57 Can He Ever Quit? 31:45 More Precious than Gold: Faith and Giving Back Sign up for Michael's weekly email: www.SaturdayMorningMining.com Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Mining Stock Education offers informational content based on available data but it does not constitute investment, tax, or legal advice.

In this solo episode, Travis breaks down some of the biggest lessons he learned from his conversation with Randy Couture. Randy is a five-time UFC heavyweight champion, actor, entrepreneur, and former Olympic wrestling alternate who built an incredible career during the early “Wild West” days of mixed martial arts. From fighting professionally at age 33 to starring alongside Sylvester Stallone in The Expendables, Randy's story is a masterclass in resilience, calculated risk-taking, and embracing the underdog mentality. Travis shares key takeaways from their conversation that apply to business, entrepreneurship, personal growth, and life. On this episode we talk about: Why setting a clear goal and reverse engineering a plan changes everything How Randy Couture used “cookie cutter” systems to accomplish major life goals Why opportunities are useless unless you're willing to walk through the door The hidden advantage of being underestimated and overlooked How to silence negative internal dialogue and regain control of your mindset Why perfectionism keeps people from ever stepping into the arena The difference between ambition as a feeling versus ambition as a system What Randy's fighting career teaches about handling pressure and public failure Why high achievement often comes with personal sacrifice The importance of presence, balance, and honesty in long-term success How Randy transitioned from UFC champion to actor and entrepreneur Why taking imperfect action is more valuable than waiting for certainty Lessons on risk-taking from a man who entered professional fighting at 33 years old The power of consistently putting yourself in rooms where opportunities exist Quotes from the Episode: “Set the goal, draw the map, and go get it.” “Doors are always going to open. Whether you walk through them is up to you.” “Thoughts are not facts. They're just noise.” “Perfectionism is a hustle that keeps you out of the arena.” “Being the underdog is not a disadvantage — it's a gift.” A Word from Our Sponsors: - Are you ready to start your own creatorjourney and make it big?

This message introduces a series on learning from great thinkers, beginning with Albert Einstein as a model for “thinking like a genius.” It emphasizes that true intelligence comes from imagination, curiosity, and a sense of wonder about the world. Einstein's wisdom encourages us to think beyond limitations, stay curious, embrace mistakes, and approach problems from a higher level of thinking. Ultimately, the key to a meaningful life isn't just knowledge but the cultivation of imagination, simplicity, and a deep sense of curiosity in how we engage with the world.- Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net - Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setup- Ask Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336X- Subscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F - Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packages- Listen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G

He breaks down why cash flow matters more than chasing appreciation, how everyday professionals can start thinking like the wealthy, and the systems investors need to scale without becoming trapped in another job. This episode dives into financial independence, escaping the "linear income" mindset, and building long-term wealth through intentional investing strategies.

What if the secret to success isn't grinding harder… but learning how to become the best version of yourself first? In this episode of BizNinja Entrepreneur Radio, Timm Chiusano joins Tyler Jorgenson for a conversation that goes far beyond business strategy. Timm opens up about leaving a 25-year corporate career, building a personal brand with millions of followers, and discovering that the most valuable thing he could offer wasn't content or marketing expertise.

Sean talks with psychologist Alison Gopnik about how children think, learn, experience the world, and why their minds may be more powerful than ours in some crucial ways. They explore the idea that kids are the “research and development” wing of the human species, built for exploration, curiosity, and discovery, while adults are optimized for focus, efficiency, and getting things done. Along the way, they discuss why children notice things we've stopped seeing, what we lose when we grow up, and what parenting reveals about love, care, and the nature of intelligence itself.

In this candid, behind-the-scenes episode, Travis is joined in-studio by his producer for a laid-back but insightful conversation about entrepreneurship, risk-taking, and the defining moments that shape a business mindset. Sparked by a clip from Kevin O'Leary, the discussion dives into whether entrepreneurs are born or made—and Travis shares the real-life experiences that pushed him away from traditional employment and toward building his own path. On this episode we talk about: The debate: are entrepreneurs born or shaped by life experiences? Travis' early exposure to sales and making six figures in his early 20s Why corporate structure and “arbitrary rules” pushed him away from traditional jobs The power of commission-based income and betting on yourself Key “aha moments” that built confidence and a risk-taking mindset Top 3 Takeaways Entrepreneurship is often shaped by pivotal life moments—not just personality traits. Gaining early wins (like sales or business success) builds the confidence to take bigger risks later. If you value freedom, control, and upside potential, traditional employment may feel limiting—and that's okay. Notable Quotes "I cannot stand arbitrary authority—especially when it doesn't make sense." "There's so much more value in being the person who gets the deal than the one doing the labor." "If I've figured it out before, I can figure it out again—that's what gives you confidence to take risks."
