Podcasts about Turning

Ps. 119 describes God’s Word in a number of ways…statutes, testimonies, commandments just to name a few. How beautiful that one can turn toward God’s testimonies for a new life!

Turning lead into gold and living forever: that's about the summation of our modern understanding of Alchemy. Informed by high-fantasy films and pop history, it now brings to mind dark, arcane ceremonies in castle ruins, playing God in the pursuit of limitless riches and immortality. However, the reality is that Alchemy spanned thousands of years and countless cultures. It was the precursor to modern science, and undoubtedly changed humanity's understanding of the world around us.

This week felt heavy, not catastrophic, not dramatic, just layered. I'm sharing about our recent surrogate embryo transfer and finding out it didn't take. Even when you know the statistics, hope quietly builds a future in the back of your mind, and each time that future dissolves, the grief is real. I talk about what it feels like to move through disappointment when your life is objectively full and beautiful, and how gratitude and grief can sit side by side without canceling each other out. I also get into the complicated tension of ambition and motherhood. Missing a camping trip with Sonny and Timmy. Launching new projects. Turning 41. Wondering how I want to be remembered - as ambitious, present, steady, joyful? Can you be all of them at once?This episode is really about capacity and how much we can hold. Absence and abundance. Career momentum and family tenderness. Disappointment and deep gratitude. Maybe adulthood isn't about resolving the contradictions. Maybe it's about becoming spacious enough to carry them.

Being fair to everyone is never easy. Allowing the guilty to self incriminate usually works best. This shows History requires us to occasionally step back and stare. SCOTUS lawyer Goldstein indicted under tax charges. Why him? Today's rollout is a shout above the chaos. This stuff happens all the time. 14 million of gambling debts. Systemic corruption erodes credibility. Clarity isn't appreciated until it's shown. Pattern recognition, real documentation and memory. Selecting angles, characters and plot finale. This is the state of the media. Emotion compression and clickable outrage. The degrading process that uses bimbo's. The infrustructure of communications is key. Why they are NOT a neutral bystander. Turning legal rights into a political strategy. How the court's infrastructure works. Why are all these fed employees hating on Trump. Is this just procedural opposition? The Minneapolis protests have an managing infrastructure. Screening, travel routes, background checks and license plate data bases are included. This is NOT spontaneous activism. They are using license plate recognition systems. Who has access to Hilton Hotel information? The post ayatollah era. The young and innocent know not what they do. It's called treason.

May we be a people so devoted to our king, so rooted in his kingdom, and so faithful in our practices that the world looks at us and says, "Look, those who have turned the world upside down have come here also." Pastor Goodwin Deng continues our series through Acts with a sermon from Acts 17:1-9.

Love is not a feeling.  It's a daily choice, a habit practiced proactively.   Summary What if intimacy isn't built in the big moments, but in the small ones you almost miss? In this episode, we explore the idea of bids for connection, the everyday ways we reach for each other through a question, a touch, a story, or even a glance across the room. We talk about what happens when those bids are noticed and met with kindness, and what slowly unfolds when they are ignored. You'll hear how responsiveness, presence, and emotional generosity shape trust, passion, and long-term happiness more than grand romantic gestures ever could. If you want a stronger, closer relationship, this conversation will help you see the simple choices that build intimacy over time. Couple Discussion Questions What are some small bids that you make that I may not always notice? What is one simple way we could turn toward each other more consistently this week? Key Takeaways Bids are everyday requests for connection. They can be verbal or nonverbal, big or small, serious or playful. Turning toward builds trust and intimacy. Consistent responsiveness creates emotional safety and closeness. Ignored bids create distance over time. Missed or rejected bids often lead to frustration, criticism, and disconnection. Vulnerability grows through small, repeated moments. Clear, honest bids and kind responses strengthen intimacy more than grand gestures.   Resources https://www.eviemagazine.com/post/the-case-for-centering-your-life-around-romantic-love https://therapygroupdc.com/therapist-dc-blog/bids-for-connection-why-small-gestures-matter-in-relationships/ https://www.gottman.com/blog/want-to-improve-your-relationship-start-paying-more-attention-to-bids/ MFP Guide to Communication  https://messyfamilyproject.org/guide/communication/

What happens when you put revenue and technology under one executive leader? In this episode of Technovation, Peter High speaks with Drew Pinto, Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue and Technology Officer at Marriott International, a $26 billion hospitality leader approaching its 100-year anniversary.

Key highlights include: Why Marriott merged revenue and IT under a single executive mandate How disciplined capital allocation is shaping AI investments The shift from “tech for tech's sake” to measurable business impact Why most “technology problems” are actually data problems How a new product operating model is breaking down silos 🎧 Listen to learn how modern CIOs can align IT strategy directly to top-line growth.

The Big Unlock · Aditya Bansod, CTO & Co-Founder, Luma Health In this episode, Aditya Bansod, CTO and Co-Founder of Luma Health, about why healthcare AI often underdelivers — and what leaders must do to turn promise into performance. Aditya argues that AI's challenge in healthcare isn't ambition, but execution. While new tools are emerging rapidly, most remain point solutions that fail to integrate into the complex workflows that move patients from scheduling to care delivery. True impact, he says, depends on orchestrating the “last mile” of healthcare, referrals, intake, documentation, and the countless operational handoffs that determine whether care actually happens. He shares how Luma approaches AI adoption with flexible guardrails, allowing health systems to calibrate automation based on confidence thresholds and maturity. The conversation also explores the rise of agentic AI, the tension between human-in-the-loop oversight and autonomy, and why CIOs are navigating a messy but necessary consolidation phase. Looking ahead, Aditya is optimistic that AI will transform patient access and engagement, only if it's deeply embedded into workflows, not layered on top of them. Take a listen.

Washington Post personal finance columnist, Michelle Singletary, tells the moving story of how a visit to her grade school by the Reverend Jesse Jackson inspired her life and career as described in her column, “How the Rev. Jesse Jackson Taught Me to Keep Hope Alive." Then Ralph welcomes Professor Eric S. Fish from U.C Davis School of Law to explain how grand juries are no longer rubber-stamping frivolous cases brought to them by the Trump Administration. Plus, Ralph gives us his take on Trump's marathon State of the Union speech and the Democratic response.Michelle Singletary writes the nationally-syndicated personal finance column “The Color of Money,” which appears in the Washington Post on Wednesdays and Sundays. In 2021, she won the Gerald Loeb award for commentary. She has written four personal finance books, including, What to Do With Your Money When Crisis Hits: A Survival Guide and The 21-Day Financial Fast: Your Path to Financial Peace and Freedom.The Trump administration's destruction of diversity, equity, and inclusion—they misunderstand what that means. It doesn't mean that you're giving jobs to people who are unqualified. It means that you recognize that the playing field wasn't even, and let's even this playing field. I liken it to a football team. You can't have a football team of all quarterbacks and win. You have to have a quarterback, a running back, a linebacker, you have to have a good kicker. It's the same thing—your team has to encompass people that represent all kinds of abilities to have a winning team. So DEI isn't a giveaway. It isn't charity. It recognizes that when you have people from different backgrounds and different perspectives and different skill levels, you have a winning team.Michelle SingletaryEric S Fish is professor of law at the UC Davis School of Law. Professor Fish's primary research is in criminal law, with particular focus on the ethical duties of participants in the criminal process, the structure of immigration crimes, and the system's emphasis on administrative efficiency. He has also served as a public defender, first with the San Francisco Public Defender's Office, and later as a Federal Defender in San Diego.This has been a really remarkable series of rejections of the Trump administration's prosecutions by ordinary people serving on grand juries, and one that is largely unprecedented in modern American history. I can't think of another example of grand juries rejecting such high-profile cases (and so many of them). Nothing really comes to mind. So in a certain sense, one might say this is the grand jury's original purpose…Initially they were a democratic institution of governance. They were a local check on the colonial oppression of the British (at least in the early colonial period). They refused to indict prosecutions under the Stamp Act, under the revenue laws. They were a tool of anti-colonial resistance to British oppression, and this seems at least broadly analogous to that—local grand juries in places like Minnesota, Chicago, Washington, D.C. are rejecting the Trump administration's attempts to prosecute its political enemies and bring trumped-up charges against protesters.Eric S. FishAll in all, [the State of the Union address] was fodder for political scientists for years to come. A dictatorial serial law violator, self-enriching chronic liar, cruel, vicious to vulnerable people and people without power (which is a majority of the people) elected dictator. This speech—which went for one hour and 48 minutes, the longest State of the Union speech ever—will be analyzed for a long time with the question at the center of the analysis being: How could so many tens of millions of voters be taken in by Trump's mouth, his lies, his false statements, his fantasies, his fake promises, his lack of any kind of record, whether as a businessman where he used bankruptcies as a strategy…and his record as a politician in his first term? That's the question we have to ask ourselves. And it's too easy to say that the Trump voters couldn't stand the Democrats who abandoned them. That's not enough. They could have not voted for Trump. They could have written in a vote. They could have voted for the Green, Libertarian, or other minor parties. They can't use the Democrats as a 100% excuse for voting for Trump. And a lot of them didn't. They just liked Trump. They liked his prejudices. They liked his lies. They liked his fantasies. They liked his fake promises.Ralph NaderNews 2/27/26* Our top stories this week come to us from our southern neighbor, Mexico. First, on February 22nd, Mexican authorities announced they had successfully conducted an operation resulting in the death of Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes, aka “El Mencho,” who headed the powerful Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG). In retaliation, the cartels launched a wave of violence throughout the country. Bafflingly, given the obvious enmity between the cartels and the government of Claudia Sheinbaum, Elon Musk implied that Sheinbaum is in the pocket of the very drug cartels with whom she is practically at war. Reuters reports Musk “responded to a 2025 video of Sheinbaum discussing cartel violence and alleged that she was ‘saying what her cartel bosses tell her to say.” Reuters notes that Musk did not provide further evidence. In fact, much of the strength of the Mexican cartels would actually be more accurately attributed to the United States. As USA Today writes, Mexican officials recovered a rocket-propelled grenade launcher, 10 long arm [rifles], handguns, and grenades, from El Mencho's weapons stockpile. Mexican Defense Minister, Ricardo Trevilla Trejo estimated that about 80% of the recovered weapons were purchased in the United States and smuggled into Mexico. This represents just the tip of the iceberg of the so-called “iron river” of firearms flooding Mexico's black market from the U.S. As opposed to the lax gun laws in the states, gun ownership in Mexico is “tightly restricted…[and] There is only one military-run gun store in the country.”* Meanwhile, President Sheinbaum is bucking American pressure by continuing to send humanitarian aid to the tiny, embattled island nation of Cuba. AP reports that last week, “Two Mexican Navy ships laden with humanitarian aid docked in Cuba…two weeks after…President Donald Trump threatened to impose tariffs on countries that sell oil to the island.” These ships carried 800 tons worth of bundles of “Made in Mexico” goods, including rice, beans, amaranth and crackers — complemented by a bottle of oil, large cans of sardines and canned peaches. Another 1,500 tons of powdered milk and beans are expected to be sent to Cuba in the coming days. The U.S. has taken a more bellicose line with Cuba than it has in quite some time, even taking naval action in the waters surrounding the island, making Mexico's support that much more critical.* In another Cuba story, a diplomatic incident is unfolding this week regarding a Florida-registered speedboat. According to the island's government, the boat, carrying 10 passengers, entered Cuban territorial waters and opened fire on Cuban soldiers. The Cubans responded in kind, killing four people aboard the craft and wounding six others. According to the Cuban authorities, most of the passengers “have a known history of criminal and violent activity.” These include Amijail Sánchez González and Leordan Enrique Cruz Gómez, both wanted by Cuban authorities based on their involvement in “the promotion, planning, organization, financing, support or commission of…acts of terrorism.” The Cubans also claim to have arrested one Duniel Hernández Santos, who was supposedly “sent from the United States to guarantee the reception of the armed infiltration.” They claim Hernández Santos has confessed. American authorities have so far evinced confusion more than anything else, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying “We're going to figure out exactly what happened.” This from AP.* Whatever cloak and dagger games the administration may be playing in the Caribbean, they have been pointedly unsubtle about their saber rattling regarding Iran – and the reaction from Congress has been meager. While anti-war members in the House and Senate are pushing war powers resolutions, namely Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie along with Senator Tim Kaine, not even the nominal opposition party is supporting these efforts. According to Capital & Empire, Democrats are seeking to “dampen momentum” and even “prevent the Iran war powers vote from advancing.” Democrats Josh Gottheimer and Jared Moskowitz, both arch Iran hawks, have publicly stated they will not back the war powers resolution, and many others have sought to split the difference, saying Trump should only move on Iran after consulting with Congress. As the Hill notes, the Senate did pass a war powers resolution restricting the president's use of military force against Iran without congressional approval during Trump's first term, with eight Senate Republicans backing the Democrats in support of the bill. It is hard to imagine such a bipartisan show of force this time around.* In more disappointing congressional news, on Tuesday the House voted down the bipartisan ROTOR Act, which would have beefed up aviation safety standards, NPR reports. This bill was drafted in the wake of the deadly midair collision over Washington D.C. last year. This bill, principally authored by Senator Ted Cruz, who chairs the Senate Commerce Committee which oversees transportation, would have required wider use of Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast – safety technology designed to transmit an aircraft's location to other aircraft. The Senate unanimously passed the bill in December, with the support of the Defense Department – now styling itself the Department of War – but the Pentagon yanked its support just before the House vote, citing “unresolved budgetary burdens and operational security risks.” The final House vote was 264 in favor and 133 opposed, 132 Republicans and Democrat Lizzie Fletcher of Texas. Despite the lopsided majority in favor, the bill needed a two-thirds vote to pass and was therefore defeated by the minority.* In another aviation related story, FBI Director Kash Patel is embroiled in a new scandal based on his alleged misuse of the FBI's Gulfstream jets for personal travel. CNN reports Patel's frequent jetsetting has even caused delays or issues in high-profile investigations, such as the assassination of rightwing commentator Charlie Kirk and the Brown University shooting last December. According to a letter authored by Senator Dick Durbin, Patel's incessant misuse of the official FBI planes for personal travel “has even frustrated White House and DOJ senior staff.” This story hits particularly hard at the present moment, with images of Patel chugging beer in the locker room celebration of the Olympic men's hockey team going viral. The FBI then had to spend days running cover for Patel, claiming the director was in Italy for “long-planned official business,” which just happened to coincide with the occasion.* Our next two stories concern AI. First, a new Public Citizen report documents how the AI industry is deploying a veritable army of lobbyists on Capitol Hill, absolutely dwarfing not only their opposition, but practically every other industry as well. According to this report, more than one quarter of all federal lobbyists are now lobbying on AI issues, representing a rise in lobbyist activity on AI issues of more than 265 percent over the past three years. This report finds the Chamber of Commerce hired the most AI lobbyists in 2025 at 91, followed by Microsoft at 63, Meta at 55, Intuit at 51, and Amazon at 48. This meteoric rise in AI lobbying activity is sure to give the industry massive firepower in the halls of Congress, ensuring a favorable regulatory environment for years to come. This will be particularly critical for data centers, which have faced a rash of local opposition. Per this report, that particular subset of the AI lobbying industry has expanded by a staggering 500 percent since 2023.* For all its newfound political clout however, the AI business seems to have found itself a formidable new opponent – Pope Leo XIV. This week, Pope Leo addressed priests from the Diocese of Rome and implored them to resist “the temptation to prepare homilies with Artificial Intelligence.” The pontiff argued “Like all the muscles in the body, if we do not use them, if we do not move them, they die. The brain needs to be used, so our intelligence must also be exercised a little so as not to lose this capacity.” He added that “to give a true homily is to share faith,” and that AI “will never be able to share faith.” This from Vatican News.* Turning to media news, this week, Paramount submitted a new offer to purchase Warner Bros. Discovery. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Paramount's new bid amounted to $31 per share and, following a period of consultation with the Warner board of directors, this offer was deemed “superior” to the proposed deal with rival bidder Netflix. This triggered a clause in the Netflix merger agreement giving the streamer four days to submit a new, superior offer. However, that same day Netflix issued a statement officially declining to submit a new, higher offer, with representatives writing “the price required to match Paramount Skydance's latest offer,” means “the deal is no longer financially attractive.” With Netflix out of the way, Paramount, led by Trump-aligned billionaire scion David Ellison, will now proceed with their acquisition of Warner Bros., including their prodigious intellectual property back catalogue and the cable news titan, CNN. A friendly relationship with the Trump administration means regulators are unlikely to hold up this deal. The Ellisons have already acquired CBS News, installing Bari Weiss as “editor-in-chief.” It seems likely they will follow a similar playbook regarding CNN.* Our final stories this week concern the continuing fallout of the Epstein scandal. This week saw the arrest of former British-U.S. ambassador Peter Mandelson, joining Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor (formerly Prince Andrew) in the collection of high profile British individuals arrested in connection with the Epstein scandal. Meanwhile, at Harvard, former University President Larry Summers will resign from his academic and faculty appointments, including his University Professorship, at the Ivy League school following the conclusion of this academic year. Until then, he will remain on leave, per the Crimson. Summers regularly exchanged messages with Jeffrey Epstein about topics ranging from women, to politics, to Harvard-related matters as late as July 2019, the day before Epstein's final arrest. But the most noteworthy Epstein-related news this week came from Chappaqua, New York. On Thursday and Friday, Bill and Hillary Clinton testified about their relationships with the late financier and sexual predator. After much wrangling, these potential blockbuster hearings were held behind closed doors on the Clintons' home turf. What exactly was said remains shrouded in mystery. According to the BBC, House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer said he hopes to make videos of both Hillary and Bill Clinton's depositions publicly available soon. Robert Garcia, the Democratic Ranking Member on the committee, said a “new precedent” had been set by calling a former president to testify and demanded that Trump be called to testify before the committee next.

You have a disaster, and life is not going to stop. Bills don't stop. They may give you a little bit of relief, but they're like, 'Okay, I understand that, but when are you going to pay this?'" "When people come to me and they have a problem, they don't need me to remind them that they have a problem. They already know. So what they're looking for is a solution." "It's very important for a leader to listen, communicate, and lead by example." "Remain teachable and coachable, and it will get you so much further than being a know-it-all, because you don't know what you don't know." "If you want to hire somebody as your coach and that person is not being coached, do not hire that person." "I make time in my relationship just like I do for my clients." "We need to set aside time in our schedule to spend time with just you and me. We take time for ourselves, because if not, then everything else becomes more important than the relationship."

A Dunedin croquet club has been roughing it since 2018 after asbestos was found in their old clubrooms. The Tainui Croquet Club has no electricity, fresh water comes from a hose poked through a nearby fence, there's a portaloo and they share kai outside because the temporary building - an old shed - is too small to shelter them all. But they're hoping to turn cheese rolls and tea towel fundraisers into a new clubroom. Tess Brunton has more.

...in which we pull up a pew at St Oswald's Church, Grasmere, for a wide-ranging chat about faith in the hills, fell-running and the day-to-day life of the rural vicar. Opening the podcast, we reflect on the personal and faith journeys that have led Lawrence Basham (rector of the Parish of Grasmere and Rydal), Charlie Day (curate of the Binsey Mission Community) and Sam Bentham (intern at Grasmere and Rydal) to the Lakes and consider the ‘no two days the same' reality of life as a vicar in rural Cumbria. Turning our attention to St Oswald's, we delve into the history of a wood-carved pulpit that links Sam Read Bookseller, a near-tragedy in the church and Greenup Edge; and consider why Grasmere Rushbearing plays such a key role in the life of the village. Disappearing down a fell-running rabbit hole, we discuss the inaugural ‘Rector's Run'; the remarkable community of those who run in the fells and the spiritual ‘settling' that happens when moving through wild places, before Charlie describes a heart-stopping moment in Wasdale ('Swing Low, Sweet Chariot!') at the head of Joss Naylor's funeral cortège. Closing our conversation, we play Cumbrian church Top Trumps (and are spoiled for choice); consider our guests' favourite time in the church year; and brainstorm a new event for the Lakeland calendar – a drive-in midnight mass (or should that be moss) at White Moss... You heard it here first...

In this episode of the Black Tower Podcast, we explore one of the most fascinating — and potentially world-altering — questions in The Wheel of Time: Why are some channelers dramatically stronger than others… and what happens now that channelers can have children together again? From the structured strength hierarchies of the White Tower to the raw power of the Asha'man, the series makes one thing clear: not all wielders of the One Power are created equal. But why? We break down: • The canon strength rankings among Aes Sedai and Asha'man • Evidence that the ability to channel — and level of strength — may be genetic • The impact of the White Tower's breeding stagnation  The Sea Folk, the Aiel, and isolated channeling bloodlines • What changes in the Fourth Age now that male and female channelers can openly form families • Whether we are about to see an explosion in average power levels • And what that means for the future of the Pattern Is the One Power evolving? Is strength in the Power hereditary? Could the Fourth Age become the strongest Age yet? Join us as we follow the threads of blood, power, and destiny — and speculate about what the Turning of the Wheel may bring next.

The average British household usually puts on their central heating by October 24, according to British Gas. But this year, thanks to soaring energy costs, and a mild winter it may well be later. Turning down your heating can have real savings. The Energy Saving Trust calculates that turning your thermostat down from 20c to 19c should cut your energy bill by around 10 per cent. But as well as saving money there are possible health benefits. According to a study carried out by the Garvan Institute of Medical Research in Australia spending time in an environment at 19° increases your ‘brown fat'. This is unlike normal fat, because it is packed with mitochondria which act like mini power stations, turning food into energy. What are the health benefits? Should we go lower than 19°? Should anyone not turn down the temperature? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

We are officially in the phase of a campaign where decency gets tossed aside and the opposition research file is emptied directly into a 30-second spot.One local ad targeting Cook County Commissioner Samantha Steele opens with footage from her DUI arrest and the now-infamous line, “I'm an elected official.” The ad's structure is ruthlessly efficient. Lead with the footage. Transition from self-importance to alleged abuse of power. Tie it together with a tagline about rules not applying to her. On the nasty scale, it earns high marks. It is disciplined, rhythmic, and unforgiving.Then there is the Texas Senate Republican primary, where the National Republican Senatorial Committee and Sen. John Cornyn are going directly at Attorney General Ken Paxton. Divorce. Allegations of infidelity. Wealth accumulation during scandal. Even insinuations about cultural issues designed to rile the base. It is the kind of ad that signals panic or confidence. Sometimes both.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Contrast that with Paxton's softer spot featuring his daughter speaking about him as a grandfather. It is the standard counterpunch to a scandal narrative: humanize, slow down, soften the edges. When campaigns spend that kind of money on family-centered messaging, it usually means they are trying to cover something sharp underneath.The larger point is simple. As we approach primary day, the gloves are off.Tariffs, Courts, and the $133 Billion QuestionBeyond campaign warfare, the Trump administration is wrestling with the fallout from the Supreme Court striking down its sweeping tariff regime. Roughly $133 billion in collected duties now sit in limbo.Officials are reportedly exploring ways to discourage refund claims, stretch out litigation, or even reimpose tariffs under new legal authorities. Trade lawyers argue the government previously committed to repayment with interest and that courts will scrutinize any attempt to sidestep that obligation.This is less about ideology and more about arithmetic. If companies want their money back, they are likely to get it. The administration may find voluntary compliance from firms seeking goodwill, but legally, the leverage is limited. This is the bargaining phase after a judicial loss.The Epstein Depositions BeginHillary Clinton was deposed behind closed doors in Washington as part of the House Oversight Committee's work on the Epstein files. She maintained that she had no knowledge of wrongdoing involving Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell.Democrats are pushing for a full, unedited transcript release to prevent selective leaks from shaping the narrative. Tensions flared when Rep. Lauren Boebert leaked an image of Clinton during the deposition, briefly halting proceedings.Next comes Bill Clinton. For those with long political memories, that sense of history repeating itself is unavoidable. Whether anything explosive emerges remains to be seen, but the optics alone ensure sustained attention.Transactional Politics in Real TimePerhaps the most revealing political maneuver of the week came from New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani. In an unscheduled trip to Washington, he reportedly presented President Trump with specific names of detained individuals and requested their release. One Columbia-affiliated detainee was subsequently freed.The broader lesson is something I have observed for years. With Trump, flattery and direct engagement can yield tangible results. Politics is transactional. If you give him a headline he likes or a symbolic win, you may get policy movement in return. Mamdani appears to understand that dynamic.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:27 - Nasty Political Ads00:10:52 - Interview with Kevin Ryan00:51:33 - Update00:51:47 - Tariffs00:53:13 - Clintons00:54:57 - Mamdani and Trump00:59:13 - Interview with Kevin Ryan, con't01:38:33 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

What separates founders who scale successfully from those who leave millions on the table at exit? Seth Deutsch, a seasoned dealmaker who has acquired more than 70 companies and led multiple recapitalizations, believes strong exits start with intentional value creation long before a sale. He emphasizes de-risking the business by reducing key-person dependency, improving financial visibility, and strengthening margins. The shift from operator to investor — focusing on predictable future cash flow — is critical. In The Owner's Manual, he outlines specific value levers to help founders scale strategically and exit stronger. In this episode of the Inspired Insider Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Weisz sits down with Seth Deutsch, Founder and Managing Partner at Samson Partners Group, to discuss scaling and preparing a business for a successful exit. They explore the seven levers of value creation, how to reduce key-man and client concentration risk, and why investor readiness should start years before a sale. Seth also shares how his personal journey shaped his philosophy on leadership and value creation.

Welcome to this week's Follower Friday episode of The Green Insider. The podcast features an in‑depth conversation with Eric Unverzagt, Chief Executive Officer of BCarbon, a Houston‑based non‑profit carbon registry and research center focused on advancing credible solutions within the voluntary carbon market. During the interview, Unverzagt outlines BCarbon's mission to develop scientifically rigorous and transparent methodologies that support high‑quality carbon credits while delivering measurable environmental benefits. Unverzagt explains that BCarbon has established four core carbon credit protocols designed to address different forms of carbon reduction and sequestration. These include soil carbon sequestration, forestry projects, living shorelines, and methane mitigation through the plugging of abandoned and orphaned oil and gas wells. Together, these protocols reflect BCarbon's emphasis on nature‑based and emission-reduction strategies that are both environmentally impactful and economically viable. A significant portion of the discussion centers on methane mitigation, which Unverzagt highlights as an especially effective approach due to methane's potency as a greenhouse gas. By supporting well‑plugging projects, BCarbon aims to reduce emissions that would otherwise escape into the atmosphere while simultaneously creating opportunities for land restoration and local economic activity. This work positions methane mitigation as a practical bridge between environmental responsibility and market‑driven solutions. The interview also previews BCarbon's upcoming methane‑focused conference, scheduled for March 11–12 at the Greater Houston Partnership facility. The event is designed to convene a diverse group of stakeholders from across the carbon and energy ecosystems, including carbon credit buyers, project developers, policy and market experts, and technical specialists involved in methane plugging initiatives. According to Unverzagt, the conference will serve both an educational and collaborative purpose. Attendees will gain insights into the environmental and economic value of methane mitigation projects, as well as a clearer understanding of how carbon credits function within the voluntary market. Just as importantly, the event is intended to foster meaningful connections among participants, encouraging partnerships that can accelerate adoption of sustainable practices and expand the impact of methane reduction efforts. Overall, the podcast underscores BCarbon's role in shaping standards for high‑integrity carbon credits while highlighting methane mitigation as a key opportunity for climate action. Through research, protocol development, and industry convenings such as the upcoming conference, BCarbon seeks to strengthen trust, transparency, and collaboration within the voluntary carbon market.
