Lucas has been nonverbal his entire life. When he was little, I spent years worrying about whether he would ever talk before realizing I was focused on the wrong thing. He didn't need to speak. He needed a way to communicate.Now, at 15, we're facing a different challenge.The jumping, screaming, hugging, and excitement that were easy for the world to accept when he was little can look very different coming from a teenager who's nearly my size. I know what his sounds and movements mean. A stranger doesn't.This week on Hi Pod, I'm Dad, I talk about learning to recognize when Lucas is getting overwhelmed, the ways I help him calm himself, and why I refuse to teach the joy out of him just because he's getting bigger.I don't want him to stop jumping. I don't want him to stop screaming. I don't want him to stop running in for hugs.I just want to turn down the volume without turning off the joy.It's Here!

The Tesla Roadster is back, and the latest airspace restrictions surrounding the upcoming Tesla Roadster reveal have people asking one huge question: What exactly is Elon Musk and Tesla planning to show?In this episode of Turn Down for Watt, Josh Turner and Chris Bowe break down the latest Tesla Roadster news, the speculation surrounding the reveal, and what the next generation Roadster could mean for Tesla, electric vehicles, and the future of EV technology.Could Tesla really deliver something unlike anything we have seen from a production car? What could the Roadster mean for EV performance, battery technology, range, and charging?But there is an even bigger conversation happening underneath all the excitement.As electric vehicles become faster, more powerful, and capable of traveling farther, where does all of the electricity come from to support them?We dig into the real economics of EV charging, including electricity prices, utility rates, demand charges, grid capacity, fast charging infrastructure, and why the exact same EV charging station can have dramatically different economics depending on where it is built.We also discuss the growing importance of utilities in the EV transition, what public fast charging actually costs to operate, and whether the next major challenge for electric vehicles will be less about range anxiety and more about access to affordable and reliable power.Is electricity still dramatically cheaper than gasoline?What really determines the price you pay at a DC fast charger?How much does a charging operator actually pay for electricity?Can the electrical grid support the next generation of EV charging?And what happens as charging speeds and vehicle power continue increasing?From the Tesla Roadster and Elon Musk to EV charging stations, electricity prices, utilities, grid capacity, and the future of transportation, this episode of Turn Down for Watt covers what is happening above the road and behind the plug.Watch through to the end and tell us in the comments:What do YOU think Tesla is planning for the Roadster reveal?And what will ultimately matter more for the future of EVs: better vehicles or better charging infrastructure?Subscribe to Turn Down for Watt for more conversations about Tesla, electric vehicles, EV charging, charging infrastructure, energy, utilities, construction, and the technology shaping the future of transportation.#TeslaRoadster #Tesla #EVCharging

Why are some Long Island business owners getting frustrated with influencers — and does paying someone $1,500 for an Instagram video actually bring customers through the door? Tom Kelly and Steve Burgerer take the podcast on the road from Sunrise Highway to Southampton for a loose Long Island conversation about influencers, sponsored content, getting paid for creative work, and Tom's philosophy on when he will — and won't — promote a business. Tom talks about the criticism that influencers will promote anything for money, whether influencer marketing actually works for local businesses, and the difference between making an advertisement and making something people actually want to watch. Then things wander—as they should—into Tom's price for "selling out," the time a charity organizer promised him an extra $1,000 and didn't pay, losing a TV job right after buying his mother an iPhone, why he doesn't announce new gigs until they're secure, and whether Tom's parents are basically the nice version of Ray Barone's parents.

Legal tech company Clio has long said that its mission is to transform the legal experience for all. Until now, that "all" has largely focused on law firms and their clients, but recently Clio announced a major initiative to develop technology for the judiciary. As part of that initiative, it hired Pablo Arredondo, the former cofounder of Casetext and developer of CoCounsel, one of the first AI legal assistants, to lead product development. Arredondo was on this show on Sept. 1 to discuss his new role. Now, Clio has made another major hire to help lead this project: Bridget Mary McCormack, the innovative former chief justice of the Michigan Supreme Court and current president and CEO of the American Arbitration Association, who will join Clio in October as general manager, judiciary, to lead the market and commercial strategy for the judiciary business. On the day her hiring was announced, McCormack sat down with host Bob Ambrogi to discuss why she considered this an offer she could not turn down and how she believes she, Arredondo, and Clio can transform the legal experience for the judiciary.   Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.

Pain is built by the brain, and because the brain can change, pain can change. That is the core of what pain psychologist Dr. Rachel Zoffness lays out in this episode. Pain is never all in your head, but it is never only in the body part that hurts either. It is biopsychosocial: biology, psychology, and your social world all turn the volume up or down. Dr. Zoffness is faculty at the UCSF School of Medicine, lectures on pain science at Stanford, and is the author of Tell Me Where It Hurts: The New Science of Pain and How to Heal. She walks through her three core truths about pain, why 96% of medical schools teach no dedicated pain science, the pain dial (how stress, mood, and attention change what you feel), and the pain recipe: writing down what makes a bad pain day so you can build the opposite. She closes with the three things that matter most for a healthy life with pain: movement, social health, and balance.

Hotels are rethinking almost everything: technology, revenue management, distribution, AI, and how they compete for demand. But Caryl Helsel, Founder and CEO of Dragonfly Strategists, believes the industry cannot afford to lose one thing in the process: hospitality itself. In this episode of The Turndown, Caryl joins Sébastien Leitner to discuss: Why hotels invest in new technology but often fail to change the way they work How poor RMS configuration can quietly leave significant revenue on the table Why revenue management is evolving into broader commercial leadership What hotels need to consider before deflagging and going independent Why AI search could create a major opportunity, or risk, for independent hotels How something as simple as the wrong word on a website can make a hotel invisible to AI How AI can help hotel teams identify operational problems and remove repetitive work Where automation should stop, and why human hospitality still matters   Related reading: Revenue marketing: The future of profit-driven hotel growth 6 hotel marketing trends: How to prepare your hotel AI visibility checklist

What if Gen Z could become one of the most influential generations for the gospel? Abby Ralph of 1630 shares why she sees tremendous spiritual potential in young adults and how Christians can help turn that passion into lifelong discipleship and leadership. You'll hear why Scripture, community, mentorship, civic engagement, and courageous faith matter in a culture filled with competing voices. Abby also shares encouraging stories from 1630 gatherings and young adults discovering that God can use them right where they are. This episode will inspire you to stop sitting on the sidelines and start investing in the next generation.About the GuestAbby Ralph serves as the Young Adult Director for 1630, the young-adult initiative of Christians Engaged, focused on equipping ages 16–30 in discipleship, leadership, biblical worldview, and civic engagement. Abby earned degrees in Political Science and History from the University of Arkansas and previously worked for the Oklahoma House of Representatives. Her passion is helping the next generation follow Jesus, understand their calling, and become leaders who influence their communities for the Kingdom of God.Reasons to ListenDisciple Gen Z — Discover practical ways parents, pastors, mentors, and everyday Christians can build authentic relationships with young adults instead of assuming discipleship requires a complicated program.Stand on Truth — Learn why Scripture, biblical literacy, Christian community, and discernment are essential for navigating social media, AI, cultural pressure, and competing worldviews.Turn Faith Into Action — Abby challenges believers to move beyond passive Christianity and recognize that God can use ordinary acts of courage, leadership, mentorship, and civic involvement for Kingdom impact.Big TakeawaysReturn to Scripture — The loudest voice in your life shouldn't be an algorithm. Regularly read Scripture so you can recognize biblical truth and evaluate the messages competing for your attention.Discipleship Can Be Simple — Mentoring someone doesn't always require a curriculum. Invite a younger believer to coffee, dinner, a game night, or simply into your everyday life and allow genuine relationships to create opportunities for spiritual growth.Choose Community — Digital connection cannot completely replace Christian fellowship. Intentionally build relationships with believers who will encourage you, challenge you, pray with you, and keep pointing you toward Christ.Courage Needs Christ — Boldness alone isn't enough. Christian courage should be directed by the Lord so believers know not only what truth to speak, but when and how to speak it with both conviction and grace.Get Off the Sidelines — Apathy convinces us that one person cannot make a difference. Instead, prayerfully identify the sphere God has given you—your family, church, workplace, school, community, or government—and faithfully begin serving there.Missional ChallengesInvite Someone In — Identify one younger Christian you can intentionally encourage this week. Invite them to coffee, a meal, or an activity and focus first on listening, building relationship, and learning where they need encouragement.Turn Down the Noise — Set aside intentional time this week to replace social-media consumption with Scripture. Ask God to reveal which cultural voices are shaping you more than His Word.Step Into the Arena — Choose one practical way to engage your community rather than simply commenting about its problems. Pray, serve, mentor someone, learn about a local issue, participate in your church, or find another concrete opportunity to bring biblical faithfulness into your sphere of influence.Chapters00:00 – Meet Abby Ralph and the 1630 Movement00:57 – How 1630 Began and Its Mission for Young Adults03:38 – Redeeming Social Media and Technology for the Gospel06:35 – The Discipleship Gap in Today's Church08:30 – Why Church History Matters10:20 – Bringing Christian Faith Into Every Sphere11:45 – Why Young Adults Disengage From Civics14:40 – Staying Grounded in a Noisy Digital Culture16:45 – Inside 1630's Washington, D.C.

Jason Edwards, Director of Hospitality & Advisory Services at Première Advisory Group, has spent more than two decades in hospitality and 15 years in project management, leading technology integrations, revenue initiatives, and complex hotel transitions. In this episode of The Turndown, Jason looks at what happens after a hotel decides to change its technology.

Topics include: Why hotel tech decisions can outpace operational readiness What makes technology implementations succeed or fail The realities of deflagging and going independent All-in-one vs. best-of-breed technology stacks When hotels have too many systems What owners should actually ask vendors about AI Why marketing, distribution, and photography still matter Measuring the real value of each booking channel   Related reading: 24-hour implementation: How Première Advisory Group and Cloudbeds redefine hotel technology deployment Hotel management software implementation: How to migrate, train, and go live successfully

Does driving a manual transmission actually make you smarter? New research from Japan suggests that operating a stick shift may stimulate the brain's prefrontal cortex. Matt breaks down the science behind manual transmissions, why stick-shift cars may create safer and more attentive drivers, and why learning to drive manual could still benefit new drivers today. Also is California's Driver's Education system broken? The state DMV orders 11,000 drivers to retake their written license tests or risk losing their licenses. Matt examines the possible testing failures, fraud concerns, and why America's driver education system should focus more on real-world driving skills than obscure written-test questions. Finally, Matt returns to the internet's dumbest car questions to judge a Reddit user who rejected a free classic Volkswagen Beetle because she wanted a newer VW New Beetle instead. That leads to a history of the original Volkswagen Beetle, the problems with modern Volkswagen ownership, and an important lesson about appreciating a free project car.

Season 10 Episode 04: Turn Down the Chilli in My Con Carne'Turn Down the Chilli in My Con Carne' explores the tension between compliance and operational excellence. Alan, Trajce, and Sara discuss why workplaces often become consumed by paperwork, while the realities of work continue to evolve much faster than legislation and codes of practice. This episode extends discussion on safety paperwork, introduced in Season 6 Episode 12 – It's going SWM'ingly.The conversation examines the distinction between mandatory legal duties, codes of practice, guidance material, and safe work method statements, and asks an important question: are organisations managing work, or managing documentation? Drawing on legal principles, human factors and operational practice, the team explores "fantasy documents", the objective behind compliance, and why understanding how work is performed remains fundamental to creating safer, more adaptive and innovative workplaces. “That's why there is expressionistic dance,” says Trace much to Alan and Sara's amusement, “no fixed foxtrot here!”Whether you're a safety professional, operational leader or business owner, this episode challenges the assumption that more paperwork automatically delivers better safety.

Hospitality futurist Simone Puorto joins The Turndown to challenge the hotel industry's obsession with buying more technology. He argues that hotels do not need another layer of software, but fewer disconnected systems, better data, and a clearer understanding of where technology genuinely improves the guest and employee experience.

In this episode of The Turndown, Ally Northfield, Managing Director of Revenue by Design and creator of the Global Revenue Forum, joins Sebastien to unpack what it really means for hotels to stay commercially relevant when the old signals are becoming harder to trust. The conversation moves beyond rate changes, dashboards, and distribution strategy to explore the bigger shifts reshaping hotel performance: uncertain booking patterns, shorter lead times, rising operating costs, changing guest behavior, AI-powered travel search, and the evolving role of OTAs. Ally argues that the next generation of revenue leadership will need to be more strategic, more communicative, and far closer to the guest than ever before. Together, they discuss why RevPAR may no longer be enough, why the cost of acquisition deserves more attention, how AI is changing the way guests discover hotels, and why commercial teams need to break down the silos between revenue, sales, marketing, distribution, and reservations. They also explore what hotels must do to attract the next generation of talent, and why hospitality needs to rethink how it presents itself as an industry. This is a timely conversation about commercial leadership, guest relevance, and the uncomfortable reality that hotels can no longer rely on yesterday's patterns to make tomorrow's decisions.   Related resources: What is hotel revenue management?

In this episode of Turn Down for Watt, we revisit Dave to discuss EV battery degradation, battery health, charging habits, maintenance costs, reliability, and long-term electric vehicle ownership after hundreds of thousands of miles.When Dave first joined the show, his 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E Premium had already surpassed 250,000 miles, challenging everything many people thought they knew about EV battery life, electric vehicle reliability, and long-term ownership costs. Now, with another 100,000 miles added to the odometer, we wanted to check back in and see what has changed—and what hasn't.Can a modern EV really go 350,000 miles on its original battery? How much range has been lost? What maintenance and repairs have been required? What has ownership actually cost compared to a gas vehicle? And what lessons can EV owners, fleet operators, and EV skeptics learn from one of the highest-mileage electric vehicles on the road today?Connect with Dave:

Should I Turn Down My Inheritance? Episode 386 – Why would you ever choose NOT to accept an inheritance? There are a few good reasons. And it's doable if you decide that's what you want. More SML Planning Minute Podcast Episodes Transcript of Podcast Episode 386 Hello, this is Bill Rainaldi, with another edition of Security Mutual's SML Planning Minute. In today's episode: should I turn down my inheritance? So, a family member has died recently and left some assets to you. You should be happy you've been left an inheritance, but it's complicated. Maybe you'd rather the money went to someone else. Or maybe, for whatever reason, it's just not worth the trouble. Do you have to accept it? The answer is no. Why would you ever choose not to accept assets that someone has given to you? There are a few situations where it makes sense. One case might be related to federal or state estate taxes. If you're already a high-net-worth individual who may have an estate tax issue, it may be better to disclaim, assuming your preferred beneficiary is next in line. This is especially true if the next beneficiaries are your children, who are likely to inherit your assets eventually. Why subject the assets to an extra layer of taxation on the way there? Also, inheriting certain assets, such as a traditional IRA, can be very complicated. When you inherit an IRA, unless you're a surviving spouse, current tax law requires you to withdraw the funds—and pay income taxes along the way—within ten years. If you're in a high-income tax bracket, you might not end up with as much as you hoped for. The next person in line, who might be in a lower income tax bracket, could end up with more money after taxes. And they may need the income more than you do. One sophisticated strategy some people use is to set up their favorite charity as a secondary beneficiary to their estate. If the IRA owner trusts his or her heirs' judgment, he or she could leave the IRA to them. They would then figure out whether it makes sense to disclaim the IRA, allowing it to pass to the charity. This could result in considerable income tax savings.[1] Sometimes there are other reasons you might choose to disclaim. The asset could be a rundown piece of real estate with deferred maintenance or environmental issues. In a case like that, you might decide that you just don't want it. Or maybe you simply don't need it. That could be a key consideration if the next person in line is your child or someone else you care about. Just keep in mind that it gets tricky if the new inheritor is a minor. Minors are considered legally incapable of owning assets directly, so they generally can't assume control or management of inherited assets. A court-appointed legal guardianship may be required.[2] So, what happens if you decide the answer is “no, thanks?” You would then need to file what's called a “qualified disclaimer.” If you do it properly, the assets pledged to you will be passed along to the next person in line. Although every state and every situation is different, here are some generic rules you might need to follow:[3] The disclaimer must be in writing. It also needs to be irrevocable and without any qualifications. Once you decide to disclaim, you can't change your mind. Also, you're not allowed to make it contingent on something else happening or not happening. The disclaimer must be made before you accept the assets. You can't give them back once you have them. It must be made in a timely manner. You generally need to submit the disclaimer within 9 months. However, there is an exception if the beneficiary is under age 21. In that case, the deadline is nine months after they reach age 21.[4] The disclaimer also needs to be unlimited. You're not going to be able to attach any conditions to the disclaimer. Note that it is also possible to execute a partial qualified disclaimer, but it can be tricky. For example, if you're scheduled to receive a certain number of shares in a publicly traded company, you may be able to keep a selected percentage of those shares while disclaiming the rest.[5] It's important to understand that a qualified disclaimer has its limitations. Maybe the most important of those is that you have to completely give up any right to the disclaimed assets. In other words, if you say no, you don't get to choose what happens next. You'll need to look closely to see where the money will end up if you disclaim. You might prefer that your children be next in line, but it's not your choice. If it's actually your long-lost cousin Ethel, that could also be a factor in your decision. It's not often that people are in a position to decline inherited assets. But in certain situations, it's nice to know that it can be done, if it makes sense.

This week on the New Music Business podcast, Ari sits down with Red Leather, the anonymous artist who turned viral TikTok videos into sold-out tours around the world. Known for his signature red hat, Red Leather first started his career by busking on Hollywood Boulevard before exploding online with viral covers and original songs like “The Only Time It Rains in Hollywood.” In this episode, Red Leather breaks down how he used social media to grow his audience from scratch, why he posted 5 videos a day for 100 straight days, how smashing guitars outside Capitol Records landed him a record deal (that he turned down), and why ticket sales matter more than streams or viral moments. He also opens up about sobriety, surviving addiction, touring independently, and eventually partnering with Empire after years of doing everything DIY.Follow Red Leather:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/redleather/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@redleatherCheck out Ari's Take:https://aristake.com00:04:02 - Intro00:04:36 - The Origin of Red Leather00:06:39 - Sobriety, Addiction & Artistic Vulnerability00:10:11 - Posting 5 Videos a Day for 100 Days00:14:11 - The Viral TikTok That Changed Everything00:20:00 - Smashing Guitars Outside Capitol Records00:25:12 - Why He Turned Down Major Label Deals00:33:28 - Booking Tours Through Instagram DMs00:47:23 - Virality vs Real Fans & Ticket Sales01:01:58 - What “Making It” Means TodayEdited and mixed by Ruben ZarateMusic by Brassroots DistrictProduced by the team at Ari's TakeOrder the THIRD EDITION of How to Make It in the New Music Business: https://book.aristake.com Hosted on Acast.
