Many of us spend our lives chasing the next milestone, believing that fulfillment lies somewhere ahead. Yet even when things appear successful on the surface, there can be a quiet sense that something essential is missing. In this episode, I'm joined by Mark Nepo, New York Times bestselling author, poet, philosopher, and cancer survivor, whose work has helped millions navigate the complexities of being human. Best known for The Book of Awakening, Mark brings a deeply thoughtful and compassionate perspective to life's challenges, transitions, and opportunities for growth. Drawing from his latest book, The Fifth Season, Mark explores what it means to move through life's turning points with greater awareness and grace. We discuss the wisdom that can emerge from loss and uncertainty, why grief and joy often coexist, and how letting go of old identities can open the door to a richer, more authentic life. Mark also reflects on the illusion that happiness exists somewhere “out there” and shares why true peace comes from learning to be fully present with what is here. This conversation is a gentle reminder that transformation doesn't require us to become someone new. Rather, it invites us to meet ourselves—and our lives—with greater honesty, courage, and presence. If you're navigating change, standing at a crossroads, or simply seeking a deeper way of being in the world, this episode offers timeless wisdom for the journey.
In this episode of the Addict II Athlete Podcast Coach Blu talks to Cliff McDonald. Cliff's story is a recovery "origin + engine" narrative: he connects the early, hard-won decision to get sober with the ongoing, daily work that keeps him there. The episode frames recovery not as a finish line, but as a lifestyle built through connection, practical support systems, and meaningful contribution to other people. Cliff describes recovery as something he had to build, not something that simply "happened" after a final decision. He shares the personal turning points that brought him from isolation and chaos to stability, then he broadens the focus to what sustained progress actually requires.

In this episode, we revisit Loyola and the Council of Trent from the perspective of their impact on history using Mark Knoll's book, "Turning Points." We follow the remarkable global reach of the Society of Jesus, founded by Ignatius of Loyola, as they carried the message of Christianity far beyond Europe in the wake of the Counter-Reformation. We also discuss how the declarations of Trent enabled the movement to take hold.
This week, the internet did what it always does: took something good, something that clearly resonated with real people, and turned it into a battlefield. We're talking about Mixtape — the new game from Beethoven & Dinosaur and Annapurna — and why the so-called "controversy" surrounding it tells you more about gaming culture than it does about the actual game.Because let's be honest: a 2-to-3 hour game with a 95 Metascore on Xbox, thousands of positive Steam reviews, and music from Devo, Joy Division, and the Smashing Pumpkins doesn't NEED the internet's permission to be good. But here we are. We're going to talk about why these faux controversies keep popping up, what they say about who gaming makes room for, and why some people just cannot stand it when a game dares to be an emotional experience without a fail state.Then we get into Saros — Housemarque's spiritual successor to Returnal — and yeah, we have THOUGHTS. Arjun Devraj, Rahul Kohli going absolutely OFF in this performance, cosmic horror on planet Carcosa, and a roguelite loop that somehow got MORE accessible without losing the teeth that made Returnal special. Is it better than Returnal? That's a conversation we need to have.We also sat down with Directive 8020 — the newest entry in Supermassive's Dark Pictures Anthology — which takes the series to space and has y'all fighting alien mimics in the void. Alien meets The Thing in video game form? The story and the Turning Points mechanic are genuinely doing something. The stealth sections though… we'll talk about it.And to close it out: Double Fine — Tim Schafer's legendary studio, makers of Psychonauts and the recently released Kiln — has filed a petition to unionize with the CWA. 42 workers. Microsoft taking a neutral stance. This is big, and it's part of a larger wave rolling through the industry. Workers deserve protection, and this moment matters. We're gonna break it all down.Let's get into it.Twitter/X — https://twitter.com/spawnonmeInstagram — https://instagram.com/spawnonmeYouTube — https://youtube.com/@spawnonmeTwitch — https://twitch.tv/spawnonmeSpotify — https://open.spotify.com/show/spawnonmeApple Podcasts — https://podcasts.apple.com/spawnonme

„Und jedem Anfang wohnt ein Zauber inne…" – sagt Hermann Hesse. Aber wenn du gerade an diesem Punkt stehst, fühlt es sich nicht nach Zauber an. Es fühlt sich an wie Angst. Wie Kontrollverlust. Wie dieses leise, aber klare Gefühl: Ich weiß, dass es vorbei ist… aber ich kann noch nicht gehen. In dieser Podcast-Episode spreche ich über genau diesen Moment. Den Moment, in dem dein Leben von außen perfekt aussieht aber sich innen nicht mehr stimmig anfühlt. Vielleicht bist du in einer Beziehung, die „eigentlich gut" ist. Vielleicht hast du den Job, den du dir immer gewünscht hast. Vielleicht hast du dir ein Leben aufgebaut, das Sinn macht auf dem Papier. Und trotzdem ist da dieses Gefühl von: Das bin ich nicht mehr. In dieser Folge nehme ich dich mit in meine eigenen Turning Points: – mein Breakup mit 30 nach 6 Jahren Beziehung – der Moment, in dem ich mein „perfektes Leben" im Büro hinterfragt habe – mein Business, das von außen erfolgreich war – sich aber innerlich wie ein Fake angefühlt hat – und warum ich ein Jahr lang an etwas festgehalten habe, das längst vorbei war Ich spreche darüber, warum wir nicht Angst vor dem Neuanfang haben sondern vor der Phase dazwischen. Dieser Raum, in dem du nicht mehr die Alte bist… aber noch nicht weißt, wer du wirst. Außerdem geht es um etwas, das die meisten komplett unterschätzen: Dein Stil. Deine Kleidung. Dein Körper. Warum du dich oft „off" fühlst, obwohl du dein Leben schon verändern willst. Warum du deine alte Identität jeden Tag buchstäblich anziehst. Und warum genau hier der Schlüssel für echte Transformation liegt. Diese Episode ist für dich, wenn du: – spürst, dass etwas in deinem Leben vorbei ist – aber Angst hast, es wirklich loszulassen – dich innerlich verloren fühlst, obwohl von außen alles „passt" – merkst, dass du dich selbst irgendwo auf dem Weg verloren hast – bereit bist, ehrlich hinzuschauen auch wenn es unbequem ist Das wirst du aus dieser Folge mitnehmen: Du hast keine Angst vor dem Neuanfang. Du hast Angst davor, wer du bist, wenn du diese Version von dir loslässt. Und genau da beginnt deine echte Veränderung. Wenn du spürst, dass du gerade genau an diesem Punkt stehst zwischen alter Identität und neuer Version dann ist muse. dein nächster Schritt. Nicht als klassisches Styling-Programm. Sondern als Raum, in dem du dich neu ausdrückst, neu verkörperst und endlich sichtbar wirst in der Version, die du innerlich längst bist. Buche dir hier deinen Call und starte deine muse.

Pastor Zac Hess - Surrender to Christ creates a unique unity.
This week Andy Hamilton, Colin Shindler and Jon Holmes discuss turning points in football history. The historian A.J.P. Taylor, a name that has never graced a football podcast previously famously described the 1848 revolutions, particularly in Germany, as a "turning point in history that failed to turn". Well the panel now discuss those moments in football history which were significant turning points in the evolution of the game we see today. Our first turning point deals with the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary but some time after its collapse. On a murky afternoon in November 1953 the Hungarian football team came to Wembley and shocked the world by defeating England in its fortress – and not just defeating them, they wiped the floor with us. But was this really a turning point in British football? After all, the old WM formation carried on for many years after Hidegkuti had demonstrated the value of a new fashioned number 9 and you could argue that it took a further 13 years until 1966 when England finally emerged from the 1953 induced nightmare. Are the panel's turning points the same as yours? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Alison had the pleasure of speaking with Andrew Panella, a fellow health and fitness coach whose journey from the tech industry to wellness coaching is both inspiring and enlightening. They discuss his company, The Longevity Lifestyle, which focuses on empowering individuals through sustainable health practices.Andrew begins by sharing his personal health struggles that shaped his pivot towards self-care advocacy. After battling chronic inflammation, he underwent multiple surgeries and faced significant weight challenges in his early twenties, which drastically impacted his career trajectory. What began as a frustrating period of relying on specialists and surgeries transformed into a newfound passion for holistic health.Alison and Andrew explore the importance of tailored health strategies. Andrew emphasizes that there is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to nutrition, exercise, and mental well-being. In fact, Andrew identifies four pillars that serve as the foundation of his philosophy and elaborates on these pillars, underscoring the necessity of understanding one's body and its unique responses to various stimuli. By questioning ingrained assumptions about health and wellness, individuals can liberate themselves from misinformation and find a path that truly resonates with their unique needs.Andrew highlights the critical role of nutrient density in our diets, advocating for the consumption of real foods rich in essential vitamins and minerals. He provides insights on the importance of a diverse diet and its significant impact on our microbiome, which in turn supports overall health and resilience. Moving on to exercise, he discusses the four main types of physical activity, specifically touching upon how neglecting flexibility can hinder overall performance and injury prevention.The discussion transitions into stress management, where Andrew elaborates on the complexities of both beneficial and harmful stressors. He emphasizes the need to cultivate emotional health, explaining how our emotions can significantly dictate our behavior. This introspection informs our responses to everyday stresses, allowing us to build resilience and develop better coping mechanisms. They also discuss the often-overlooked importance of recovery, including sleep hygiene and the value of taking breaks throughout the day to recharge both mentally and physically.HIGHLIGHTS:1:31 Andrew's Inspiring Health Journey3:21 Turning Points in Health and Wellness6:08 Overcoming Information Overload6:43 The Four Pillars of Longevity8:16 The Power of Mindset10:37 Adapting Exercise for Lifelong Wellness17:44 Understanding Stress Management20:32 The Importance of Recovery24:15 Nurturing Social Connections28:13 Practical Strategies for Changeconnect with Andrewwebsite: https://www.longevitylifestyle.meYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@longevity_eduLongevity Lifestyle book: https://a.co/d/00DeEKkNSPONSOR:Cellev8Discount code: THEALISONK2024 ALISON'S LINKS:Website |

#400 In this episode, Guy interviewed astrologer Jeff Harman, who has studied astrology since 1975 and described his path from early skepticism to deep involvement with ancient, translated astrological and spiritual texts and Vedic Jyotisha, which he calls the "science of the light of the soul." Jeff explained key concepts such as tropical vs sidereal astrology, the precession of the equinoxes, and the idea that birth (first breath) "locks in" a chart that releases patterns over time through progressions, transits, and dashas, with Saturn framed as a timekeeper and "funnel into time and space." He presented a cosmology of multiple levels of creation, discusses consciousness as not localized to the brain (referencing near-death and out-of-body experiences), and described the lower emotional mind as an attenuator that can be transcended through spiritual practice while also mentioning pineal calcification and various environmental factors he believes dampen perception. Jeff conducted an on-air Vedic reading of Guy's chart, stating major life shifts around 2015–2018 and 2021 onward, discussing family dynamics (including his father's death in 2012), and predicting future timing themes such as further boosts in 2024 and a significant change around 2029, while emphasizing that astrology describes conditions and vectors rather than removing free will. The conversation closed with Jeff describing his services (personal and corporate electional work), defending astrology as a practical tool for informed decisions, and sharing examples from clients and podcasts involving disability after vaccination and nonverbal/autistic communication, with both agreeing to do a future episode. About Jeff: Jeff Harman is a world-renowned, second generation master astrologer, spiritual researcher and paranormal investigator, deeply versed in ancient and traditional systems. Known for working with everyday seekers, public figures and celebrities for 50 years. Jeff's unique interpretation of ancient astrology brings clarity, direction and understanding. We are all souls on a unique journey. Ancient astrology exposes what's unseen, answering life's biggest questions, and turning uncertainty and confusion into direction. Jeff brings both wisdom and a grounded, revealing, compassionate presence to every reading and conversation. Jeff offers corrective measures and works with clients to design custom talismans made with natural, untreated gemstones which are astrologically prescribed and set using ancient astrology. Jeff has solved numerous paranormal cases involving haunted dwellings, UAP-related phenomena, and instances of possession. He has also cleared individuals, homes, and commercial spaces affected by negative spiritual attachments.

Over the years, we've recorded hundreds of conversations with traders across different markets, strategies, and generations. And while no two trading paths look the same, certain moments tend to repeat — not moments of big wins or dramatic calls, but quieter turning points. The moments where something shifts internally. Where progress depends less on the market… and more on how the trader evolves. In this special episode of Chat With Traders, we revisit excerpts from past conversations with traders who reached those inflection points — moments that reshaped how they thought about risk, discipline, accountability, and longevity. It's a collection of turning points — the decisions, realizations, and hard lessons that changed the trajectory of a trading career.

The American Revolution wasn't just a colonial rebellion; it was a global conflict shaped by European rivalries and high-stakes diplomacy. Without the help of foreign allies like France and Spain, the United States might never have won its independence. Historian John Ferling joins us to explore the international dimensions of the Revolutionary War. Drawing from his new book Shots Heard Round the World, Ferling reveals how secret aid, political gambles, and naval power from Europe (especially France) influenced the outcome of the war, and nearly derailed it.

THE DEVIL'S LEDGER Week of January 26 — Blizzard Stories, History's Turning Points, and Hard Truths This week on The Devil's Ledger, winter takes center stage — both outside our windows and inside the stories we're telling. We open by acknowledging the massive snowstorm that's crippled much of the country, especially the Northeast, and how winter has a way of shrinking the world and amplifying the dark. ❄️ The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week comes straight out of a blizzard — a terrifying story that proves when visibility drops and isolation rises, the line between survival and disappearance gets dangerously thin.

The greatest energy source for civilization before the steam engine was wind. It powered the global economy in the Age of Sail. Wind-powered sail ships made global shipping fast and cheap by harnessing free, reliable ocean winds to propel large cargo loads over vast distances without needing fuel or frequent stops. It also powered windmills, the factories of the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Windmills allowed for abundant bread by milling flour by turning heavy grindstones with wind-driven sails. They also powered trip hammers to forge iron and steel by lifting and dropping massive weights. We can credit them as well for pumped water, sawed timber, and processed oils, spices, and paper. Wind is one of most elemental yet overlooked forces shaping our world today, and it is at the center of the human story. Many times it changed history – such as “Protestant Wind” saving England from the Spanish Armada, kamikaze winds halting the Mongol invasions of Japan, and easterlies carrying Chernobyl’s fallout. Wind also powers massive turbines today, but there was a forgotten moment in the 1880s when we could’ve chosen wind power over fossil fuels. It even creates certain types of civilizations. Some historians believe the cleverest and most civilized people lived in places where weather was varied and posed constant challenges. Today’s guest is Simon Winchester, author of “The Breath of the Gods: The History and Future of the Wind.” We look at how wind—life‐giving and destructive, chaotic and harnessable — has shaped civilization from antiquity to today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I share one of my favorite presentations I ever gave at Myron Golden's event. The entire event was about offers, so Myron asked me to walk through my personal journey with them. But not just the mechanics of an offer and all the typical stuff… He wanted me to share the real stories… The terrifying moments… And the breakthroughs that happen when you have the courage and determination to put out an offer. In this episode, you'll hear the five times in my life when a single offer literally changed everything for me. This one skill saved my business more times than I can count at this point, and has made all of my success possible. If you have ever doubted yourself, felt stuck financially, or wondered how to create momentum when everything feels impossible, this episode will show you what is actually possible when you learn how to build and launch irresistible offers. Key Highlights: ◼️Why the person who makes the most offers always wins, even if some fail! ◼️The Christmas couch story and the first offer that changed everything ◼️How a high ticket idea created under pressure saved payroll and became a five year revenue machine ◼️What happened when every merchant account disappeared overnight and how a one thousand dollar teleseminar offer kept the company alive ◼️The ClickFunnels launch that failed six times before a room of three hundred people triggered a billion dollar breakthrough ◼️The twenty million dollar library vision no bank believed in and the million dollar seat offer that raised fourteen million dollars in Mexico If there is one theme that has repeated itself in my life over the last twenty plus years, it is this: Whenever I hit a wall, whenever I felt out of ideas, whenever I thought everything was about to collapse, the thing that turned everything around was an offer. I hope this episode gives you the belief and the tools to start putting more offers into the world because you are always one offer away… ◼️If you've got a product, offer, service… or idea… I'll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event → https://sellingonline.com/podcast ◼️Still don't have a funnel?

What did it take to end the War for Independence? When we think of the American Revolution's final chapter, we think of the Siege of Yorktown. Between September 28 and October 19, 1781, British forces endured a siege by the Franco-American forces that ultimately led to a triumphant Franco-American victory, British recognition of American independence, and the birth of a new nation. But the real story of the Yorktown victory is far more layered. It involved international alliances, enslaved people seeking freedom, and years of hardship. Today, we're revisiting the events of October 1781 as we revisit Episode 333. In this episode, we join three historians–Marcus Nevius, Ed Ayers, and Gretchen Johnson– who help us uncover: How American, French, and British forces converged at Yorktown The vital role of the French army and navy in securing victory And what this final battle looked like on the ground for soldiers, civilians, and Black Virginians alike Show Notes: https://www.benfranklinsworld.com/333 EPISODE OUTLINE 00:00:00 Introduction 00:03:59 Siege of Yorktown 00:05:13 The British Military Approach 00:08:50 The Importance of Virginia's Regions 00:18:57 The Impact of War on Yorktown 00:28:03 Dunmore's Proclamation and the British Strategy 00:33:44 The British Invasion of Virginia 00:48:00 Aftermath and Legacy 00:55:49 Conclusion RECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODES

Our analysts Brian Nowak, Keith Weiss and Matt Bombassei break down the most important tech insights from Morgan Stanley's Spark Private Company Conference and industry shifts that will likely shape 2026 and beyond. Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript ----- Brian Nowak: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Brian Nowak, Morgan Stanley's Head of U.S. Internet Research. I'm joined today by Keith Weiss, Head of U.S. Software Research and Matt Bombassei from my team.Today we're going to talk about private companies and technology – and how they're showing us the direction of travel for disruptive technologies and emerging investment opportunities.It's Wednesday, October 22nd at 10am in New York.Keith and Matt, we just returned from Morgan Stanley's Spark Private Company Conference last week in Los Angeles. It had over 85 private tech companies, 150 plus investor firms. There were a lot of themes that were discussed across the entire tech space impacting a lot of different sectors, including energy, healthcare, financial services, and cybersecurity.Keith, what were some of the biggest takeaways you took away from Spark this year?Keith Weiss: I'd say just to start off with, the Spark Conference is one of my favorite conferences of the year. It's a more intimate conference where you really get to spend time with both the private company executives and founders, as well as investors from the VC community and public company investors. And the conversations are more broad ranging; they're more about the thematics in the industry. They're more long term in nature.So, it's not just a conversation about what's next quarter going to look like, or what data points are you drumming up. You're having these thoughtful conversations about what's going on in the industry and how that's going to impact business models, how it's going to impact innovation cycles, how it's going to impact pricing models, within these companies. So, it tends to be a very interesting conference for me to attend.So, for me, some of the key takeaways. Typically, when we're in these innovation cycles, it feels like everybody's rowing in the same direction. We all understand where the technology's heading, we're all understanding how it's going to be delivered, and it's a race to get there. And you're having a conversation about who's doing best in that race, who's best positioned, who's got a better motor in their race car, if you will.So, to me, one of the big takeaways was we don't have that agreement today, right? There's different players that are looking at this market evolution differently. On one side of the equation, the application vendors – and a lot of this debate is in SaaS based applications. They see SaaS based applications having a very big role in taking these models that are inherently in-determinative and making them to be more determinative and useful within an enterprise context.Bringing them the data that they need to get the job done and the right data; bringing them the context of the business process being solved; bringing the governance that's necessary to use in an enterprise environment. But most importantly, to make it effective and efficient for the large enterprise.On the other side of the equation, you have venture capital investors and more early-stage investors who are looking at this as a huge phase shift, right? This is going to fundamentally change how we build software, how we utilize software, and they worry about a deprecation of that SaaS application layer. They think the model itself is going to start to encompass, it's going to start to subsume a lot more of that application functionality, a lot more of that analytics. And they see a lot more disruption going forward.So that debate within the marketplace, that's something that's interesting to me. It's something that we don't typically see in these innovation cycles. So that's takeaway number one.Takeaway number two, we're still really early days, and that's a little bit implied in in the first statement; I definitely hear a lot of it when I talk to the end customer. When I talk to CIOs. This wasn't necessarily at Spark, but earlier in the week, I was at a CIO conference, there was 150 CIOs in the room. One of the gentlemen on stage asked a question. ‘Who in the room has a good understanding of what we're talking about when we mean Agentic AI, when we mean agentic computing within our enterprise.' Of the 150 CIOs, four raised their hands. Still very early days in understanding how this is going to evolve, how we're going to actually deliver these capabilities into the enterprise.And the last takeaway I would say is more excitement about the federal government becoming a better customer for software companies overall. People are more interested in new avenues into that federal government. There's been some very successful companies that have opened the door to getting into these federal government contracts without going through the primes, without doing the typical federal government procurement cycles.And that's very interesting to the startup community, which tends to move faster, which tends to drive on innovation versus relationship building; versus being in an existing kind of incumbent prime. So, I thought that opening was – it was pretty interesting as well.Brian Nowak: it sounds like it's still very early, there are a lot of different points of view and no real consensus as to where technologies could go next. However, one theme with an enterprise software – [it] does seem like cybersecurity has a little more of a unified view.So maybe walk us through what you learned from a cybersecurity perspective and what should we be focused on there?Keith Weiss: Yeah, absolutely. If there is a consensus, the consensus is that generative AI and these innovations and the fast pace of innovation is going to be a positive for cybersecurity spending, right? The reason being, there's three main factors that are driving that overall spending.One is expansion of surface area, right? Cybersecurity in one dimension, you can think of how much is there to be protected, right? And if we think about the major themes that we're talking about, we're going to be developing a lot more software, right? The code generation tools are improving software developer productivity. You have an expanding capability of what you can actually automate.We'll be building a lot more software. That software needs to be protected, right? We have new entities that are going to be operating inside of enterprises, and that's the agents. So, CIOs are thinking about this future state where you have tens, thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of agents operating in the environment, doing work on behalf of end users, but having permissions and having ability to execute business processes. How do we secure that side of the equation? We're talking about outside of just the four walls of the large enterprise, going into more operational technologies, being able to automate more of that work. That needs to be secured as well.So, an expanding surface area is definitely good for the cybersecurity budget. You can almost think of cybersecurity as a tax on that surface area. We generally think about it; somewhere between 4 and 6 percent of IT spend is going to be spent on overall security. So, that's one big driver.The second big driver is the elevated threat environment. So, while we're excited to get our hands on these extended capabilities of generative AI, the bad guys are already there, right? They're taking advantage of this. The sophistication, the volume and the velocity of these attacks is all increasing. That makes a harder job for the existing infrastructure to keep up, and it's going to likely necessitate more spending on cybersecurity to tackle these newer challenges; the newer dynamism within the cybersecurity threat appropriately. So, you're going to have to use generative AI to counter the generative AI.And then the last component of it; the last driver would be the regulatory environment. Regulatory tends to have some cybersecurity angles. If we think about it here, we're seeing it in terms of data governance is probably the big one. Where does this data go when it goes into the model? Are we putting the right controls around it? Do we have the right governance on it? So that's a big area of concern.A lot of complaining going on at the conference about the lack of consistency in that regulatory environment. All these different initiatives coming up from the state – really creates a challenging environment to navigate. But that's all good-ness for cybersecurity vendors that can help you get into compliance with these new regulations that are coming up. So overall, a lot of positivity around cybersecurity spending and startups definitely look to take advantage of that.Brian Nowak: Matt, so Keith says there's lack of consensus and boats being rode in every direction on what should be adopted first. And only 3 percent of CIOs know what agentic AI means. What did you learn about early signal on adoption? And some of the barriers to adoption? And hurdles that companies are talking about that they need to overcome to really adopt some of these new tools?Matt Bombassei: Yeah. Well, to Keith's point, it is really early, right? And that was a consistent theme that we heard from our companies at the conference. They are seeing early signs of cost efficiency, making employees more productive as opposed to maybe broad scale layoffs. But it's the deployment of these model technologies into specific sub-verticals – so accounting, legal engineering – where that adoption is driving greater efficiency within the organization.These companies are also adopting models that are smaller and a bit more fine tuned to their specific work product. And so that comes at a lower cost. We heard companies talking about costs at 1/50 of the cost of the broader foundational models when they're deploying it within the organization. And so, cost efficiency is something that we're seeing.At the same time, to speak to how early it is, one of the biggest hurdles here is change management and actually adoption. Getting people to use these products, getting them to learn the new technologies, that is a big hurdle. You know, you can lead a horse to water, you can't make it drink, right? And so, getting people to actually deploy these technologies is something that organizations are thinking through. How do we approach [it]?Brian Nowak: And you make an autonomous car drive? I know you've been doing a lot of work on autonomous driving more broadly. There were some autonomous driving and autonomous driving technology companies at Spark. What were your takeaways on autonomous driving from last week?Matt Bombassei: Yeah, well, not only can you make an autonomous car drive, you can make a truck drive and a bunch of other physical equipment. I think that was one of the takeaways here was that these neural nets that are powering autonomous vehicles are actually becoming much more generalizable. The integration of the transformer architecture into these neural nets is allowing them to take the context from one sub-vertical and deploy it in another vertical.So, we heard that 80 to 90 percent of the software, the underlying neural net, is applicable across these verticals. So, think applicable from autonomous ride sharing to autonomous trucking, right? What that means from our point of view is that it's important to get the scale of total miles driven – to establish that kind of safety hurdle if you're these companies.But also, don't necessarily think of these companies as defined by the vertical that they're operating in. If these models truly are generalizable, a company that's successful and scaled and autonomous ride hailing can switch or navigate verticals to also become successful potentially in trucking and other industries as well. So, the generalization of these models is particularly interesting for scale, and long-term market position for these companies.Brian Nowak: It's fascinating. Well, from consumer and enterprise adoption, the future of agentic computing and autonomous driving, there will be a lot more themes we all have to stay on top of. Keith, Matt, thanks so much for taking the time today.Keith Weiss: Great speaking with you Brian.Matt Bombassei: Thanks for having us.Brian Nowak: And thanks for listening.

Candace Owens has accused Turning Point USA leadership of covering up the truth about Charlie Kirk's assassination, alleging obscuring the fact that Kirk had explicitly rejected pro-Israel donor pressure just 48 hours before his death. She claims he told TPUSA executives, Jewish donors, and a rabbi that he was abandoning the Israel project and planned to bring her back on stage with him. Owens challenged TPUSA to publicly deny her statements, suggesting their silence proves they are protecting financial interests tied to pro-Israel donors. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger emphasize that TPUSA's refusal to address these allegations directly points to a deeper corruption and donor-driven influence within the organization. Plus segments on the letter Charlie Kirk wrote just before his death to Netanyahu demanding Israel do its own propaganda, why Israeli control over TikTok is worse than China's and the plans underway for an attack on Venezuela.
