Guest: Joseph Sternberg. Sternberg analyzes the recent U.S. invasion of Venezuela, noting that while the event disrupted predictions, its global significance ultimately depends on the subsequent U.S. decisions regarding regime support and governance in Caracas. Turning to domestic politics, Sternberg predicts the 2026 midterms will be unusually significant as both parties face internal identity crises, with Democrats torn between centrist and socialist wings and Republicans struggling to define their future path as the Trump era eventually concludes.1900 Venezuela

At 22, Brendan Foody is both the youngest Conversations with Tyler guest ever and the youngest unicorn founder on record. His company Mercor hires the experts who train frontier AI models—from poets grading verse to economists building evaluation frameworks—and has become one of the fastest-growing startups in history. Tyler and Brendan discuss why Mercor pays poets $150 an hour, why AI labs need rubrics more than raw text, whether we should enshrine the aesthetic standards of past eras rather than current ones, how quickly models are improving at economically valuable tasks, how long until AI can stump Cass Sunstein, the coming shift toward knowledge workers building RL environments instead of doing repetitive analysis, how to interview without falling for vibes, why nepotism might make a comeback as AI optimizes everyone's cover letters, scaling the Thiel Fellowship 100,000X, what his 8th-grade donut empire taught him about driving out competition, the link between dyslexia and entrepreneurship, dining out and dating in San Francisco, Mercor's next steps, and more.

00:54 Turning an undersea cable into a seismic detectorResearchers have shown that they can piggyback a signal on a 4,400-kilometer-long telecom cable that runs from California to Hawaii, allowing it to act like 44,000 separate seismic-activity detectors. Their method takes advantage of impurities found in glass fibre-optic cables, which reflect light differently when they are stretched and distorted by the pressure of seismic waves.Science: Seafloor telecom cable transformed into giant earthquake detector04:17 The origin of an ancient boatChemical analysis of the caulking found on the wood an ancient boat has helped researchers identify the origins of the vessel, that sank off the coast of Denmark 2,400 years ago. The team's analysis suggests it voyaged from much farther away that had been thought — perhaps coming from the Baltic Sea region. The team also found a fingerprint left in the caulk, although who it belonged to is unknown.LiveScience: Fingerprint of ancient seaborne raider found on Scandinavia's oldest plank boat08:29 How heating up helps some plants pollinateSome plants called cycads (Zamia spp.) heat up to attract the beetles that pollinate them. These beetles have heat-seeking sensors in their antennae, which they use locate the plants. Male cycads warm up around 3 hours before females, meaning that beetles head to them before first carrying pollen over to the females.Science: Heat-seeking beetles drawn to plants that glow in infrared13:08 The exoplanet shaped like a lemonThe discovery of exoplanet PSR J2322-2650b reveals how unusual other worlds can be. This exoplanet takes just 7.8 hours to orbit an ultra-dense pulsar whose intense gravity pulls PSR J2322-2650b into a lemon shape.New Scientist: Strange lemon-shaped exoplanet defies the rules of planet formationSubscribe to Nature Briefing, an unmissable daily round-up of science news, opinion and analysis free in your inbox every weekday.

#740 What if the key to breakthrough innovation isn't inventing something new — but seeing value where everyone else sees waste? In this episode, host Kirsten Tyrrel sits down with Stuart Jenkins, a lifelong athlete turned footwear innovator, to unpack an incredible entrepreneurial journey that blends grit, patience, and purpose. Stuart shares how his background as an Olympic Trials–qualifying marathon runner shaped his mindset for startups, why he believes preparation is everything, and how decades in the footwear industry led him to reimagine massive amounts of discarded foam as high-performance, commercially viable products. From licensing early innovations to Reebok, to helping bring HOKA to life, to building a sustainable footwear brand that transformed industry “waste” into products worn by elite athletes — and even featured on Oprah's Favorite Things — this conversation is a masterclass in innovation, persistence, and seeing opportunity where others see trash! What we discuss with Stuart: + Olympic Trials mindset + 1000:1 preparation principle + Athlete to entrepreneur journey + Footwear innovation origins + Commercializing ideas vs inventing + Turning waste into resources + Sustainability beyond marketing + Building factories from scratch + Rejection, luck, and persistence + Seeing truth before trends Thank you, Stuart!

How can AI actually help construction teams make better decisions (without adding complexity or losing the human element)? In this episode of Bridging the Gap, Todd Weyandt sits down with Shelley Copsey, CEO of FYLD, to explore how AI-driven insights are transforming safety and decision-making in construction. Shelley shares how FYLD helps teams move beyond lagging indicators and manual reporting by turning frontline data into actionable intelligence, right when it matters most. The conversation dives into why predictive safety is the future of construction, how real-time insights empower workers instead of policing them, and what it takes to build trust when introducing AI on the jobsite. In this episode, you'll learn: How AI turns frontline construction data into real-time, actionable insights Why predictive safety beats reactive reporting every time How to introduce AI in a way that builds trust with field teams What “human-centered AI” really looks like in construction MEET OUR GUEST Shelley Copsey is co-founder and CEO of FYLD. In her role, she leads a scaling company empowering major infrastructure companies to drive highly efficient field workforce operations, driven by data and enabling each and every day's operations to be safely delivered to plan. She has over 25 years of experience in the intersection of physical infrastructure and digital technologies, as well as the human transformation required to deliver on the promise of emerging technologies. TODD TAKES Digital Powers Better Job Operations Technology isn't just about automating tasks—it's about creating smarter, safer, and more productive job sites. With real-time data, teams can anticipate risks, streamline workflows, and deliver higher quality outcomes without the traditional trade-off between speed, safety, and cost. Tech Supports, Not Replaces, People AI and digital platforms work best when they elevate the workforce, not replace it. Technology puts power in the hands of field teams, giving them visibility, communication, and support that strengthens trust and culture across the organization. From Blame to Lessons Learned Construction has often defaulted to a blame game when delays or incidents happen. But the real transformation happens when mistakes become learning opportunities. By capturing and analyzing data, companies can reframe setbacks into insights that improve planning, execution, and safety for the future.   More Resources Thanks for listening!

“Chasing greatness is grieving the person you once were.” Tyriq Withers Ryan, Channing and Fred chop it up with Tyriq Withers, a rising actor making his mark in Hollywood, for an honest conversation about perseverance, processing grief, risk taking and how his journey is proof that purpose doesn't always follow a straight line and what's meant to be will always be. The conversation starts off with a fun story of Tyriq, a Jacksonville native, sharing how his childhood idol was a FAMILIAR guest speaker he had as a kid in elementary school... one guess? And you already know Chan and RC had a field day with the age jokes of Freddy T being that guy 20+ years ago! A die-hard Jaguars fan excited for the playoffs, he also opens up on the special meaning behind wearing a custom made "144" Shedeur Sanders jersey and how the bible verse he had imprinted on the sleeve changed his thought process. Yes, his love of sports starts long ago and before stepping in front of the camera, Tyriq's first love was football as he walked on to Florida State where he was part of the Seminole team (along with Dalvin Cook and Derwin James) that won an Orange Bowl in 2016. Ball was his life and taught him discipline, resilience, and what it takes to perform under pressure. That foundation helped fuel his transition into acting, where he's now making waves starring in the upcoming film Him, along with roles in other notable projects. Tyriq breaks down his journey into acting, the sacrifices it took to chase his passion, and the mental resilience required to survive an industry built on rejection and uncertainty. From navigating auditions and staying grounded to defining success on his own terms, he shares what it really means to pivot when the path isn't guaranteed. He talks about what it was like working with Donald Glover, shares who is on-screen inspiration is and the full circle experience of learning from Marlon Wayans, who he admired growing up and then became a big brother to him during the filming of Him. But Marlon wasn't just an on-screen mentor, he also helped Tyriq navigate life during one of the darkest and difficult times after he lost his older brother unexpectedly and was met with a new wave of grief and responsibility he didn't know existed. Emotional and honest, Tyriq shares how he dealt with it while still being able to pursue his dreams and balance the success with managing deep pain. Pivoting from sports to Hollywood to betting on himself in an industry built on rejection, this episode takes a deep dive on staying grounded while navigating new levels of visibility and expectation. From embracing discomfort to redefining success beyond the scoreboard, this conversation goes deeper than credits and highlights. It's a powerful discussion about identity, faith, work ethic, and trusting the process — on and off the field.

In this New Year's first podcast episode, I'll break down “THE FOUR PATTERNS THAT PREVENTED MOMS FROM TURNING AUTISM SYMPTOMS AROUND IN 2025.” I'm pretty sure numbers 1 and 4 will surprise you (a lot).We're talking about….The mindset traps.The strategy gaps.The spiritual blockers……..that I see happen over and over again. Based on 70+ audits - working with intelligent, driven, and faith-based (or curious) moms like you.You need to know this to set up a strategy that actually works this season, not just temporary, fragile results.You know a lot about nutrition and diet. You have a spiritual or faith-based approach to healing.But. You have changed. You're no longer the same as when you first suspected that your child was different. You have outgrown the strategies, most of the moms, and the practitioners you used to rely on. Your family, siblings in the shadow, husbands - are no longer able to hold the pressure, and it's threatening to steal the childhood and the life quality for all family members. Something HAS to change. NOW.You're probably sensing a big shift where the ambition has changed. We no longer “just want to remove symptoms”; we want future independence, life skills, and emotional intelligence.Adding more tools or therapies, thinking that the more you do, the less symptoms you will see - has the opposite effect (long term).Let's change that…But there are massive root causes preventing this turnaround.You cannot "head on a stick" your way out of this. You can't abandon yourself and save your child at the same time.Why should you listen?

Aron Ralston's extraordinary story of survival after an 800-pound boulder trapped him in a remote Utah canyon captured global headlines in 2003. In his New York Times best seller, Between a Rock and a Hard Place, the Oscar-nominated film, 127 Hours, and on stage, Ralston takes audiences vicariously through those six days without water, means of communication, or hope of escape, to the ecstatic moments when he freed himself by severing his own arm. Aron later returned to his outdoor passions, completing elite mountaineering projects which remain unrepeated even to this day. Aron's incredible triumph in the face of insurmountable odds inspires audiences to harness the power of their deepest motivations, relationships, and mindset to transform personal and professional "boulders" into their blessings. Summary In this deeply reflective conversation, Aron Ralston revisits the defining experience of being trapped alone in Blue John Canyon in 2003 and the six days that ultimately forced him to amputate his own arm to survive.  Rather than retelling the story as a tale of shock or heroism, Aron reframes it as a profound exploration of identity, meaning, and choice.   Aron traces his journey back to childhood, his move to Colorado, and his early draw to the mountains as both refuge and proving ground. He explains how intellect, ambition, and a desire to test his limits led him away from a conventional career path and deeper into solo adventure. The canyon, he reflects, was not a random accident but the culmination of a long-standing internal question: Who am I when everything is on the line?   Inside the canyon, Aron describes the psychological evolution from panic and rage to stillness, problem-solving, and ultimately love. His survival hinged not just on technical reasoning, but on meaning-making: connecting to family, future relationships, and a vision of life beyond the canyon. Love became the fuel that allowed him to endure pain, deprivation, and fear long enough to find a way out.   The conversation moves beyond survival into what came after. Aron reflects on fame, recovery, fatherhood, depression, loss, and how the experience reshaped his understanding of adversity. Rather than seeing the canyon as trauma alone, he describes it as a teacher that clarified values, revealed hidden capacity, and reframed suffering as a catalyst for growth. The episode ultimately becomes less about the moment he cut off his arm and more about how humans meet their hardest moments and decide who they will become on the other side.   Takeaways ·       Extreme adversity reveals identity rather than creating it; pressure exposes who we already are. ·       Problem-solving alone is not enough. Meaning and emotional connection often provide the real fuel for endurance. ·       Panic narrows possibility. Stillness, breath, and perspective reopen options when everything feels lost. ·       Love can be a practical survival tool, not just an abstract emotion. ·       We often create the challenges that ultimately shape us, even when we don't recognize it at the time. ·       Trauma is not the end of the story. What matters most is what we choose to do with it afterward. ·       Adversity can become an asset when it is integrated, not avoided. ·       Gratitude does not require the situation to be resolved; it can coexist with pain and uncertainty. ·       Asking for help is not weakness. Even the most "solo" journeys are never truly alone. ·       The real transformation happens after the crisis, in how we live ordinary days with greater awareness and intention.   Notes: Book: Between a Rock and a Hard Place Speaker page: Aron Ralston motivational speaker

In this episode, we dig into how modern SaaS platforms turn payments into a core product, a revenue engine, and a defensible moat without breaking customer trust or slowing product velocity. With NMI's CMO Peter Galvin and Product Director Luis Peña, we unpack the real path from “just accept cards” to a fully integrated commerce stack that handles fraud, chargebacks, compliance, and omnichannel experiences at scale.We start with the SaaS payments maturity curve: ship fast with basic acceptance, then refine UX with tokenization and branded flows, and finally operate payments as a true business line with pricing strategy and revenue share. From there, we explore the tough stuff most teams underestimate - risk management, underwriting discipline, and the operational muscle needed to keep approval rates high while keeping losses and support tickets low. If you're wondering when you've outgrown your current processor, we outline the telltale signs and how to plan a migration that is modular, phased, and invisible to your merchants.Omnichannel is also a major focus. We break down card-present choices like Tap to Pay, offline-capable devices for field service, and cloud APIs for always-connected point of sale - all while tying in text-to-pay, QR codes, wallets, and ACH via open banking. Beyond lending, we also highlight high-impact add-ons: instant payouts, network tokenization, invoicing, and loyalty programs that raise approval rates, reduce churn, and boost margin. And we look ahead at what's next: stablecoins for cross-border efficiency, open banking data for smoother experiences, and agent-driven discovery that transforms how buyers find and pay for products.

Investors will keep focusing on market fundamentals, says Sam Stovall. Though he expects a good year, he warns that historically, we're reaching the end of a pattern for double-digit gains. He highlights tech, utilities, and communication services, and potentially financials. Turning to the Fed, he doesn't expect the first cut until April. He explains what a failed Santa Claus rally could mean for January trading, which often previews the rest of the year.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Autism content is not the same thing as autism science. In this episode, Dr. Theresa Lyons joins me to talk about what it really means to follow the science of autism, and why parents cannot rely on headlines, algorithms, or outdated assumptions when the stakes are this high. Theresa is a Yale trained scientist and autism parent, and she breaks down how peer reviewed research actually moves, how easily it gets distorted, and why it can take 20 to 30 years for scientific conclusions to become common medical practice. We talk about how misinformation spreads online, including research showing that 70% of the most viewed autism videos on TikTok were classified as wrong or over generalized. Theresa explains why credibility does not come from views, and why parents need to get closer to the source, or choose trusted interpreters who do. We also dig into the bigger picture that often gets missed when families are only offered behavioral therapies. Theresa shares how she thinks about risk, genetics, environment, and total load on the body, and why broad buckets like sleep, diet, hydration, and gut health matter when you are trying to support a child. This is a powerful reminder to trust your intuition, be willing to do the work, and stay curious. The goal is not to chase every rabbit hole. The goal is to build clarity, prioritize what matters, and change the trajectory one step at a time. Key Takeaways "Follow the science" should mean peer reviewed publications, not headlines. Theresa explains why going to sources like PubMed, or using trusted interpreters of that research, matters when mainstream summaries can be rushed, incomplete, or wrong. It can take 20 to 30 years for research to reach common practice. That lag matters when your child is five now, not thirty five later, and it is why parents often need to be proactive rather than waiting for systems to catch up. Mainstream media can sound credible while still being misinformation. Theresa shares how even well meaning articles can be based on shallow research done under deadline pressure, which can derail a family's decisions if they are not careful. Online engagement is not the same thing as accuracy. Research discussed in this episode found that 70% of top autism videos on TikTok were classified as wrong or over generalized, which is a wake up call about where many families are getting "education." Parents have to balance curiosity with discernment. The goal is not to chase everything. The goal is to build enough scientific literacy to ask better questions, recognize weak claims, and avoid fruitless rabbit holes. Autism is diagnosed through observation, which can hide the "why" underneath. Theresa explains how biology, chemistry, and health factors can be missed until developmental delays become obvious, and then families are left sorting out root contributors after the fact. Broad health buckets deserve attention alongside therapies. Sleep, hydration, digestion, and diet can meaningfully affect regulation and behavior, and Theresa points out that these basics are often dismissed as "just autism" when they deserve real investigation. Diet interventions require clarity about goals and consistency. Theresa discusses why families need to identify symptoms first, understand mechanisms like gut permeability and immune load, and avoid comparing "partial" changes to results from structured clinical trials. Risk is complex because genetics and environment interact. Theresa describes why research often speaks in terms of increased risk rather than simple causation, and why what is relevant depends on the individual child's context. Trust your intuition and commit to the long game. Theresa's closing message is that change is like turning a boat. It takes effort and time, but a parent's willingness to learn and keep going can meaningfully change a child's trajectory. .About Theresa Lyons Dr. Theresa Lyons is an international autism educator, Ivy League scientist, and autism parent. She holds a PhD in computational chemistry from Yale University and previously worked in the pharmaceutical industry in research and development and as a medical strategist. After her daughter was diagnosed with autism, she applied her scientific training to understanding autism research and now teaches parents how to navigate the science with clarity and confidence. She is the founder of Navigating AWEtism, a platform designed to turn autism complexity into clarity by organizing scientific information and making it accessible and actionable for families. Through her work, she has supported parents in 21 plus countries and reaches a growing global audience through years of science backed education on YouTube and social media.

So much of HR today is talked about in terms of strategy. What's the best strategy for improving retention? How can I create an effective people strategy? But as effective as planning ahead can be, it all falls apart when you don't know how to follow through.

On the week's episode of HR Works, we're joined by John Hadeed, US VP of People & Culture at Primark, and together we'll be tackling how to translate HR strategies from exciting theory to actionable commitments that create results and leave you with a healthy, growing business.

Welcome back to "It's the Bottom Line that Matters"—the podcast dedicated to guiding you toward smarter business decisions and greater success. In this episode, hosts Jennifer Glass, Daniel McCraine, and Patricia Reszetylo pick up where they left off in their previous conversation about events, shifting the focus from attending to hosting.

Patricia reflects on her early teleseminar days and evolving strategies, while Daniel weighs in on maximizing value and attendee quality. Jennifer shares a recent example where event fees doubled as charitable donations, highlighting how creativity in pricing can also have a positive impact.Beyond the mechanics, the hosts dig into the psychology of event attendance, the importance of “skin in the game,” and tactical communication—everything from reminders to persuasive copy—that boosts participation.

Welcome to Season 8 of Yo Quiero Dinero.In this solo episode, Jannese Torres reflects on the lessons that defined 2025 — her first year as a mom, nearly five years as a full-time entrepreneur, and over a decade of intentional financial decisions that made this season of life possible.

Nadi Moss immigrated from Russia nine years ago and built a life most people would call successful. She rose quickly, surrounded by momentum, status, and a fast-paced world that looked impressive from the outside. From the outside, everything looked like success. But a year ago, everything changed. After years of external wins, Nadi reached a point where she felt completely disconnected from herself. Choosing sobriety became the turning point — bringing clarity, presence, and the courage to walk away from a life that no longer reflected who she truly was. She changed her environment. She changed her circle. And she changed her mindset. Turning inward through meditation and the study of Kabbalah, Nadi began rebuilding from the inside out. Today, she is studying to become a certified life coach and continues her studies in the Wisdom of Kabbalah at the Kabbalah Centre. In this episode of the Wealth on the Beach Podcast, host Daniel Alonzo sits down with Nadi Moss to explore what really happens when success stops feeling fulfilling — and why losing your edge is often a signal that something deeper needs to change. Nadi shares her personal transformation, the courage it takes to break old patterns, let go of an identity that no longer fits, and choose a path that demands honesty, discipline, and inner strength. Her mission is simple but powerful: to help people reconnect with themselves, navigate dark moments, and remember their inner light — because when space is created, the light always finds its way in.
