In this first episode of S5, Catherine Asta is joined by award winning advocate Tumi Sotire, a British-born Nigerian with dyspraxia and founder of The Black Dyspraxic, a platform dedicated to championing intersectionality within neurodiversity.Together they unpack common misconceptions about dyspraxia, why it is often misunderstood as ‘just clumsiness' and how it can affect everything from movement and coordination to organisation, memory, processing and confidence.Tumi shares his own experience of growing up as a Black dyspraxic child, reflecting on diagnosis, bullying, education and the importance of understanding neurodivergence through an intersectional lens. The conversation also explores the hidden emotional and financial costs of dyspraxia, along with the barriers many families face in accessing support.Catherine and Tumi discuss the overlap between dyspraxia and autism, including the reality that dyspraxia is a common co-occurring condition for autistic people. They also explore practical supports and adjustments, from occupational therapy and assistive technology to breaking tasks down into manageable steps and recognising individual strengths.This is a hopeful conversation about self-understanding, advocacy and creating environments where neurodivergent people feel supported to thrive. Tumi reflects on the importance of recognising strengths alongside struggles and why helping children believe in what is possible can make a lifelong difference.What's on at Autism Central?Subscribe to our FREE newsletter⁠⁠Explore our FREE support, funded by NHS England - 1:1 coaching, online events and resourcesConnect with Tumiwww.theblackdyspraxic.comInstagramConnect with Catherine WebsiteInstagram Books: Rediscovered and Still Living

VLT vägrar rätta artikel om inställd pesach, och så hopp om en ny vår för pressfriheten i Ungern. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Skumma förehavanden på 68:an eller helt vanligt grundlagsskyddat beteende?Ett svartvitt bildmontage av bekymrade ministrar mot en fond av riksdagshuset och så rubriken: ”Anonyma mejl till regeringen – skickas inifrån S partikansli”. Dagens Nyheters artikel, som kretsar kring något så torrt som den svenska offentlighetsprincipen, hade en rätt dramatisk inramning. Kanske lite för dramatisk. För det här var en publicering som i tisdags fick både byråkrater och journalister runt om i landet att sätta morgonkaffet i halsen.Joanna Korbutiak har pratat med Scoops redaktör Daniel Wiklander, yttrandefrihetsexperten Nils Funcke och DN:s redaktionschef Anna Åberg.Polisen dementerade avrådan från pesachfirande – men tidningen backar inte en tumI slutet av mars kom nyheten att Judiska föreningen i Västerås, för första gången, ställt in sitt gemensamma firande av högtiden pesach. Till grund för beslutet låg, enligt tidningen VLT:s rapportering, en avrådan från polisen. Den här nyheten väckte många starka reaktioner, och flera andra medier följde upp med egna inslag och ledartexter. Men stämde det verkligen?Edvin Ek åkte till Västerås för att träffa Vestmanlands Läns Tidnings chefredaktör Daniel Nordström och Magnus Jansson Klarin, presstalesperson polisregion Mitt.Maktskifte i Ungern – hur påverkas pressfriheten?Under de 16 år som Victor Orbán suttit vid makten, har den ungerska pressfriheten minskat drastiskt. Statligt finansierade medier har förvandlats till regeringsmaktens megafoner och dagstidningar, förlag och tidskrifter har, titel efter titel, köpts upp av företagare med nära band till Orbáns parti Fidesz. Valets vinnare Péter Magyar har nu utlovat att den ungerska pressfriheten ska återställas. Frågan är: kommer han att lyckas?Johan Cedersjö har träffat förlagsredaktören och Ungernkännaren, Peter Karlsson, som precis kommit hem från två veckors valfeber i Ungern.

Gareth and Ben unpack our strange obsession with celebrity downfalls — especially those raw DUI body cam moments that go viral. They also break down rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and why it matters globally.

Plus, Gareth and Tumi tackle Helen's pothole stunt and the bigger question: who's to blame for failing basic service delivery?

The Kidnapping of Shelley Kittleson in Baghdad Guest: Bridget Tumi and Bill Roggio Summary:Kata'ib Hezbollah has abducted an American journalist in Baghdad to use as leverage for prisoner exchanges.

8. Houthis Launch Measured Missile and Drone Attacks Against Israel GUEST: Bill Roggio, Bridget Tumi SUMMARY: The Houthishave entered the Iran war by launching drone and missile attacks on Israel. This "measured" approach signals support for the axis of resistance while attempting to avoid an overwhelming American military retaliation., Bridget Tumi reports that the Houthis officially joined the conflict after one month, targeting Israel to show solidarity with Lebanon and Gaza,. This strategy is calculated to avoid a major U.S. response, as closing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait—which carries 10-15% of global oil—would provoke international intervention. Despite previous air campaigns, the Houthis retain significant military capabilities, including Iranian-supplied cruise and ballistic missiles, and see themselves as the vanguards of the broader Muslim cause,,.

TV host and social entrepreneur TT Mbha, together with his daughters TJ and Tumi, has co-authored a new pre-teen book, My PMS Diary. The book is set to be launched on 28 March. The book follows a young girl, Palesa, as she documents her first period through diary entries. Inspired by honest family conversations about puberty, the interactive journal aims to help girls understand menstruation, reflect on their experiences, and see periods as a normal part of growing up. Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Sipho Thato Mbha, a father and co-creator of the PMS Diary. TT Mbha is a father of two little girls who, like many, have to navigate the confusing, funny, and sometimes overwhelming journey of growing up. But fear not because he, together with his girls, has come up with what they term the PMS Diary...translated as the Period Mbha Sisters. To get more on this, Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Sipho Thato Mbha, a father and co-creator of the PMS Diary.

Last summer 2025 I made my first ever trip to South Africa, specifically Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. I went there to make connections, interview local jazz artists, elders and community leaders.  One of the very talented artists I connected with was jazz drummer, composer and scholar Tumi Mogorosi. We took a deep dive into his journey as an artist and activist. He spoke about what inspired him to play the drums and to study the rich history of this music we call jazz. He expressed the importance of knowing his history as a South African and all that it entails, including the horrors of apartheid, the 1976 Soweto uprising and the injustices that continue to exist today. We dove into his projects as a leader which include the 2014 “Project Elo”, “Sanctum Santorium” with his partner and vocalist Gabi Motuba, and his most recent album Group Theory: Black Music. We touched on his collaborations with Shabaka Hutchings' Shabaka and The Ancestors and lastly as a historian, he expressed his deep appreciation for Frantz Fanon and why his work is so relevant, even today.

Can technology actually make shopping feel more personal? Recorded live at NRF 2026, this RETHINK Retail Podcast moves past the AI hype to focus on the people behind the counter. Host Michael Klein is joined by David Weissman from Tulip, Rissa Jarrat from Jenni Kayne, and Kimberly Levine from TUMI for a candid conversation about the future of clienteling. In a world of digital noise, these leaders are using AI to bring back the "little black book" of retail, at scale: - The "Gift of Time": How TUMI uses technology to free up associates so they can focus on the person standing in front of them. - Authenticity First: Why Jenni Kayne prioritizes "reading the room" over automated messaging. - Million-Dollar Performers: What happens when you give every associate the tools to build their own book of business. This isn't just about efficiency; it's about making sure the "human" stays at the heart of your brand.

Tumi Magnússon er fæddur í Reykjavík 1957 en ólst upp við jaðar Mosfellsbæjar í stórum bræðrahóp. Á heimilinu var myndlist upp um alla veggi og hugur Tuma stefndi alltaf í þá átt. Hann fór í Myndlista og handíðaskólann en ákvað að hætta eftir fornámið og klára námið í Hollandi. Hann langaði í nýtt umhverfi en svo hafði það líka áhrif að faðir hans, myndlistarmaðurinn Magnús Pálsson, var þarna orðin lykilmaður í kennslu við skólann. Magnús varaði son sinn reyndar við því að feta þessa leið en Tumi tók ekki mikið mark á því. Hann er ekki mikið gefinn fyrir að staðsetja sig á einum stað í listinni, en aðspurður segist hann kannski alltaf vera á slóðum konseptlistarinnar, og að kannski megi líka tengja hann við Fluxus hreyfinguna. Tími, skynjun og hversdagslegar athafnir eru meðal hans helstu viðfangsefna og oft má greina leikgleði og húmor í verkunum. Meðfram listinni hefur Tumi kennt bæði við Listaháskóla Íslands og við Konunglegu dönsku listaakademínuna en hann hefur búið í Kaupmannahöfn síðustu 20 árin. Frá sinni fyrstu sýningu á Akureyri 1981 hefur Tumi verið ötull í sýningarhaldi, hér á landi og víða um heim. Um þessar mundir sýnir hann í Listasafni Reykjanesbæjar og kallast sýningin Héðan þaðan þangað hingað.

Una Björk Kjerúlf hlaut í gær Ljóðstaf Jóns úr Vör, en verðlaunin hafa verið veitt frá ár­inu 2001 í minn­ingu skálds­ins Jóns úr Vör. Ljóð Unu Bjarkar kallast Framlag mitt í minningabanka nærri útdauðra ljóðaen í rökstuðningi dómnefndar segir að það sé listilega lipurt og leikandi en efni þess sé nokkuð kvíðablandið þegar betur er að gáð. Við ræðum við Unu Björk Kjerúlf í þætti dagsins. Einnig minnumst við fyrstu útvarpssendingarinnar á Íslandi sem fór fram í Fríkirkjunni í Hafnarfirði fyrir 100 árum síðan. Þetta var fyrir daga ríkisútvarpsins en Ottó B. Arnar símfræðingur hafði fengið leyfi til að stofna og starfrækja útvarpsfélag og stóð að þessari útsendingu.

Black Friday isn't a day anymore. It's a month-long pressure cooker – and it's forcing retailers to rethink everything from promotions to product pages.Correction note: In the episode I mention a jumper with 7% wool – the actual composition was 8% wool.Why Black Friday has morphed into “Black Month” – and what that constant promo pressure does to margins, teams and customer expectationsHow John Lewis is investing £800m to turn “stuffy department store” into experiential destination, complete with VIP member lounges that feel more like British Airways than traditional retailThe power of personal styling: a live story from a first-ever styling session at Aubin, and why curated outfits create genuine “dopamine dressing” moments for time-poor professionalsWhat luxury players like Joseph really want from tech and AI: tools that free staff to serve customers, not replace themHow AI is fast becoming your second customer – from ChatGPT's personal shopping and gift guides to the need for product pages that go beyond specs and capture story, emotion and use-caseWhy the next generation won't “Google it”, they'll ChatGPT it – and what that means for search, content and retail strategyIf you work in retail, ecommerce, CX, merchandising or digital, you're already living these tensions: discount pressure, demand for experience, and the rise of AI-driven discovery.This episode gives you a sharp, 13‑minute snapshot of where those trends are heading – and how brands like John Lewis, Aubin, Joseph, Tumi and M&S are shaping the next chapter.

Nýlega lék jazzgoðsögnin Wadada Leo Smith á stappfullum tónleikum í Iðnó, í lok sinnar síðustu tónleikaferðar um Evrópu eftir 60 ára feril. Wadada hefur sótt Ísland heim í nígang og haft mikil áhrif á íslensku jazzsenuna og Tumi Árnason ætlar að segja okkur af því í þætti dagsins. Við hringjum líka norður í Eyjafjörð, því þar tekur myndlistarkonan Aðalheiður Eysteinsdóttir vel á móti fólki á aðventunni og eitthvað kemur jólakötturinn þar við sögu. Auk þess fjallar Soffía Auður Birgisdóttir um nýútkomna bók Sigrúnar Ölbu Sigurðardóttur, Þegar mamma mín dó, og Sigríður Kristín Þorgrímsdóttir, sagnfræðingur, kemur í hljóðstofu, en hún sendi fyrir skömmu frá sér bókina Piparmeyjar, - Fröken Thora og saga einhleypra kvenna á Íslandi.

Við kynnum okkur einn af fjölmörgum viðburðum Sequences hátíðarinnar í þætti dagsins, þátttökugjörninginn Ég er hjarta sem slær í heiminum, sem fer fram í náttúrulaugunum í Hvammsvík á laugardagskvöld. Gjörningurinn sameinar, að sögn aðstandenda, tónleika, dans, flot og snertingu þar sem áhorfendur eru virkir þátttakendur. Tumi Árnason verður einnig með okkur í dag, og segir frá sinni upplifun af State of the Art tónlistarhátíðinni, sem fór fram dagana 7-11 október, og Gréta Sigríður Einarsdóttir rýnir í nýútkomna ljóðabók Sunnu Dísar Másdóttur, Postulín. En við hefjum þáttinn á að kynna okkur viðburð sem hverfist um stutta bókmenntatexta, hvort sem það eru örsögur, smáprósar, prósaljóð eða hvað annað. Viðburðurinn kallast Kvöldstund með smávinum og er haldinn á vegum Stofnunar Vigdísar Finnbogadóttur og STUTT, rannsóknastofu í smásögum og styttri textum. Kristín Guðrún Jónsdóttir, prófessor í spænsku er önnur þeirra sem heldur utan um verkefnið, og hún heimsækir okkur í hljóðstofu í upphafi þáttar.

Við lítum inn í tvö gallerí í þætti dagsins, fyrst í Gallerý Port, þar sem sýningin Augnlokin þyngjast stendur yfir en á henni má sjá ný verk úr smiðju Baldvins Einarssonar, og svo í Gallerí Hakk við Óðinsgötu, nýtt gallerí sem sérhæfir sig í hönnun. Við ræðum við forsprakka þess, Brynhildi Pálsdóttur og Gunnar Pétursson, um galleríið og sýninguna sem opnar á morgun, þar sem hönnuðurinn Johanna Seelemann sýnir muni sem hún býr til úr afgangs gleri. Tumi Árnason fer yfir það sem helst vekur athygli hans í íslensku tónlistarsenunni í sínum hálfsmánaðarlega pistli. En við byrjum á að kynna okkur málþing sem fer fram í samkomuhúsinu í Sandgerði á sunnudag, um metsöluhöfundinn Ingibjörgu Sigurðardóttur. Ingibjörg fæddist árið 1925 og var einn vinsælasti ástarsöguhöfundur á Íslandi á sjötta og sjöunda áratugnum. Við ræðum um Ingibjörgu við bókmenntafræðinginn Vilborgu Rós Eckard, og grípum örstutt niður í viðtal frá árinu 1987, við Ingibjörgu sjálfa.

In this episode of Monday Morning Pep Talk, I share 10 powerful insights gained from an 11-day trip to France that marked three major milestones — two graduations and 30 years of marriage. More than a vacation, it became a reset that sharpened my perspective on leadership, time, and intentional living. This is not about travel for the sake of luxury. It is about the mindset, planning, and boundaries required to step away and come back stronger.

Aujourd'hui, premier épisode de notre série tournée dans le territoire de Mahagi, une région rurale dans l'est de la RDC, à la frontière avec l'Ouganda. Au milieu de ces montagnes, sur les rives du lac Albert, coule la rivière Kakoye. Ce cours d'eau sépare la chefferie de Mokombo en deux : la rive ouest, perturbée par la présence de groupes armés, et la paisible rive est, n'ayant jamais connu d'attaque de groupe armé. De notre envoyée spéciale dans la chefferie de Mokambo, Devant la rivière Kakoye qui est une rivière qui se jette dans le lac Albert en contrebas. Aujourd'hui, c'est jour de marché, il y a de l'agitation. Les motos traversent très lourdement, chargés de produits vivriers comme des boissons, des légumes, du poisson. « Je suis en train de livrer le chargement, ce sont des boissons sucrées. Je n'ai pas l'habitude de traverser parce qu'il y a de mauvaises nouvelles qui nous arrivent de l'autre côté », raconte Uiroto Mongwi Jacquesan, conducteur de taxi-moto. En amont de la rivière, côté est, se trouve une multitude de villages densément peuplés. Ici, pas de groupes armés. Même les rares policiers n'ont pas d'armes. Les habitants se sentent protégés grâce, disent-ils, à Kakoye. Des pouvoirs attribués à cette rivière que les habitants préfèrent garder secret et que l'un des chefs de groupement de la zone, Louis Le Kodjo, détaille brièvement : « La rivière est infranchissable. Ces groupes armés, ils ont peur. S'ils songent à venir avec la guerre, la rivière devient infranchissable. Cela gonfle ou cela peut changer la couleur aussi. De ce côté de cette rivière, il n'y a jamais eu d'attaque. Nous sommes tranquilles depuis 2019. » Beaucoup fuient les attaques de la Codeco qui sévit du côté ouest de la rivière, rappelle Grégoire Tumi, le coordinateur local de la société civile de la chefferie de Mocambo, séparée en deux par la rivière Kakwa : « On constate, vers l'ouest de la chefferie, l'absence de l'autorité de l'État. Parce qu'on constate que les autorités locales, comme les chefs de villages, les chefs des groupements, ne vivent pas dans leur milieu. Même la police s'est aussi déplacée. Compte tenu des attaques répétitives, la population s'est déplacée pour vivre à l'est. » Au total, 19 camps officiels et six informels sont dans la zone, habités par des dizaines de milliers déplacés.

Charlie Cole is the President of XGEN AI, a composable AI platform for eCommerce. As a seasoned eCommerce executive, he has over two decades of experience leading digital transformations for global brands. Before XGEN AI, Charlie served as the CEO at Tribute Technology and FTD and held leadership positions at Samsonite and TUMI, where he drove significant digital growth. In this episode… Online commerce search has long frustrated both brands and consumers. Whether it's typing in a detailed query and getting zero results or sifting through hundreds of irrelevant products, traditional search engines can't keep up with consumers' evolving shopping habits. As search behavior evolves and expectations rise, how can brands deliver a shopping experience that feels intuitive, personal, and helpful? According to digital executive and eCommerce operator Charlie Cole, generative AI presents unique opportunities for search personalization. These tools can understand natural language, learn from user behavior, and surface relevant results — even for complex, descriptive queries.

By focusing on genuine customer needs and creating frictionless, conversational experiences, brands can drive loyalty and revenue.
