Former champion jockey Richard Dunwoody joins me to talk about how photography has become a part of his life after racing, and there are questions about the sport that defined him, too. A three-time Champion Jockey in the UK, Richard won two Grand Nationals and a Cheltenham Gold Cup on the legendary Desert Orchid. He helped define jump racing in Britain and Ireland during one of its most competitive eras. But that was only chapter one. After stepping out of the weighing room, Richard set out on endurance rides across South America and took on challenges that carried him far beyond the racecourse. Now, he travels with a camera, chasing stories in places a long way from grandstands and bookmakers. In this conversation, we talk about photography, adventure, and the discipline that links both worlds, plus what happens when the noise of competition finally stops. Also in the show, Lee Cobbs writes about retracing his roots and finding new angles in a familiar town, Arran Carter-Cheetham shares stories from his photographic adventures that took him halfway round the world to the so-called "Venice of the East," and on that note, I have news about a photographic retreat to the real Venice! Christopher Kincaid reckons he might just live in the best place in the world, and Matties Wesche is filming tandem parachute jumps from 10,000 feet.

We all knew the art market slowed slow down, but we didn't realize the rules were being rewritten, too. Advisor, curator, and reporter Elisa Carollo joins Madison Beale on The Artalogue today to discuss the most important questions arising in the art market today.:Will there be more gallery shut downs? How are galleries adapting in a post-boom, post-digital art market?  What can the next generation dealers do to keep their heads above water? Today, we connect the dots between prices, context, and staying power.We start with Elisa's journey navigating secondary and primary markets, curation, and daily reporting, and how that unique vantage point helps Carollo understand what moves value in contemporary and ultra‑contemporary art. She breaks down the pandemic's fast‑track effect on emerging artists, why rapid price spikes can backfire, and how institutional recognition, biennials, and critical writing broaden demand beyond a handful of bidders.The conversation then turns to the gallery crunch: mounting fair schedules, rising rents, thin teams, and the danger of overgrowth. Carollo explores how dealers these days believe that community is driving more sustainable sales. We also spotlight hopeful momentum, from the Studio Museum in Harlem's reopening to Venice's next chapter, and revisit the Malta Biennial as a model for site‑specific, context‑rich curation that builds meaning as well as markets in places less frequented by the art world's usual travel circuit.Carollo offers grounded advice for aspiring art writers: be present in the industry, wear different hats, and ask better questions. If you care about how artworks earn their place (and keep it) this conversation is your field guide to an art world under renovation. Subscribe to The Artalogue, share with a friend who collects or curates, and leave a review telling me what part of the market you want explored next!Follow Elisa Carollo on Instagram Connect with the Artalogue: Madison Beale, HostBe a guest on The Artalogue Podcast

Few names are as synonymous with wild Florida as Clyde Butcher. Known for his striking black and white large-format photography, Clyde has spent decades capturing the soul of Florida's landscapes, from the ghostly cypress swamps of Big Cypress National Preserve to the vast wetlands of the Everglades. In this episode, I sit down with Clyde in Venice to talk about his story, beginning to end, and what it truly means to see Florida, not just look at it. We spend quite a bit of time reflecting on his early years, his shift from architectural focus and sailing to Florida's swamps, and how personal tragedy and rediscovery changed his relationship with the land and lens.This conversation also explores how Clyde's photography became a tool for conservation and education, the quiet stillness of the swamp, the changing face of Florida's wild places, and the role of art in helping people reconnect with nature. Whether you've stood in front of one of Clyde's mural-sized prints or are just discovering his work, this episode is not only inspiration, but a reminder of why wild Florida is worth protecting and what we stand to lose if we don't. Links:Clyde Butcher Official WebsiteBig Cypress GalleryClyde Butcher's Florida Gallery in VeniceFollow Clyde Butcher on InstagramFlorida Wildlife Corridor FoundationJoin Us at the Lake Wales Ridge Fire FestIf you'd like to learn more about prescribed fire and the experts that make them happen, join us at the Lake Wales Ridge Fire Fest on November 8th, from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM at Highlands Hammock State Park in Sebring, Florida.

Your support helps keep the dice rolling (and the Billy Eels wiggling). Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, hosts Randall James, Tyler Kamstra, and Ash Ely sit down with Drew Foulke, founder of Norse Foundry and Hexed Publishing, to explore the upcoming Titanskeep campaign setting — a high-fantasy, system-agnostic world designed for Dungeons & Dragons (5e/2024), Pathfinder 2e, and beyond. Titanskeep, set in the living world of Kalidor, pits gods against titans in a divine power struggle that reshapes the world's fate. Players can join guilds, align with deities, or swear loyalty to mighty titans — and every choice changes the ongoing narrative. Built to support convention-based raid events, local game store play, and ongoing modular releases, Titanskeep promises a living campaign ecosystem that evolves through player decisions. Drew discusses Hexed Publishing's approach to system-agnostic design, collaboration with industry legends like Ed Greenwood, Keith Baker, B. Dave Walters, and Deven Rue, and his goal of producing a constantly supported RPG world rather than a one-and-done campaign book. Tyler shares his own experience designing monsters for the Houdan region, a New Orleans-meets-Venice bayou crawling with illusion-magic, giant bugs, and the now-legendary Billy Eel — complete with random mutations and "moonshine in its veins." Throughout the conversation, the hosts and Drew dive into: The challenge of creating a 5e and Pathfinder 2e compatible RPG setting. The use of guild systems, living world events, and player-driven raids. The design philosophy of Norse Foundry: making dice and props that players actually use. The plan for Titanskeep's Kickstarter (October 2026), free Patreon content, and playtesting rewards. The future of Hexed Publishing, from Gazetteers to modular adventure paths, and how community playtesting shapes their development. Key Takeaways System-Agnostic Design: Titanskeep bridges 5e, 2024 D&D, and Pathfinder 2e, with future support for systems like Daggerheart, Savage Worlds, and Fate. High Fantasy, Low Tech: Magic drives Titanskeep's world; technology exists only where titans allow it. Living World Structure: Players influence world events through guilds, deities, and Titan allegiance — shaping global outcomes. Convention Integration: The setting includes a raid-style convention system, where multiple tables impact shared encounters and titanic battles. Collaborative Worldbuilding: Drew enlisted industry veterans like Ed Greenwood, Keith Baker, B. Dave Walters, Jay Foster, Deven Rue, and Crystal Sully. Player Rewards: Free adventures, Patreon-exclusive ancestries, and physical props (like keys, pins, and holy symbols) connect the digital world to your table. The Billy Eel Legacy: A chaotic creature from the Houdan region, proof that player imagination and worldbuilding can get delightfully weird. Ongoing Support: Titanskeep isn't a single book — it's a long-term evolving campaign world with modules, Gazetteers, and live play updates. Community-Driven Playtesting: Players providing feedback can win $50 Norse Foundry gift cards.

At the Wildix Partner Day in Venice, Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green sat down with industry analyst Dave Michels to discuss his impressions of Wildix's first-ever analyst event and what it reveals about the future of UCaaS, AI, and the channel. Michels, a respected voice in enterprise communications and author of TalkingPointz, described the event as “a real look inside a company that's not just talking about digital transformation — they're living it.” “Wildix zigs where everyone else zags,” Michels said. “They've built a single-tenant UCaaS architecture for the cloud — something almost nobody else is doing — and it's full of advantages. Customers don't care if it's multi-tenant or single-tenant; they care about flexibility, data residency, and performance. Wildix has figured that out.” Michels noted that Wildix's 100% remote workforce and decentralized culture reflect the flexibility it delivers to customers. “They actually practice what they preach,” he said. “They've built a distributed organization that uses their own tools every day, and that authenticity shows through.” A key differentiator discussed was Wildix's hardware-integrated UCaaS ecosystem, including x-hoppers — an AI-enabled communications platform for retail and frontline workers — and x-bees, designed for knowledge workers and collaboration. “The x-hoppers headset is a perfect example of applied AI — it's connected, voice-activated, and aware of business workflows,” Michels observed. “If a shelf runs out of stock, it can alert staff automatically. It's an intelligent, practical use of AI that drives immediate ROI.” Looking ahead to 2026, Michels said that AI is reshaping every part of the communications stack — and that this shift favors channel partners. “AI is the magic drug right now,” he explained. “But to really leverage AI, companies need expertise — and that's coming back to the channel. We're seeing a major swing toward partners because they know how to implement, customize, and deliver these complex, outcome-driven solutions.” Michels concluded that Wildix's approach — flexible deployment options, integrated AI, and strong partner alignment — mirrors where the entire industry is heading: toward configurable, outcome-focused communications.

At the Wildix Partner Day in Venice, Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green spoke with Jon Arnold, Principal of J Arnold & Associates, for a candid analyst perspective on Wildix's strategy and its growing impact on the SMB and channel markets. Arnold noted that while Wildix may be lesser known in North America, its channel-first model, AI-driven innovation, and SMB focus set it apart from larger UCaaS players. “Wildix isn't trying to be everything to everyone — they're laser-focused on SMBs that want modern, ROI-driven communications, not just dial tone,” said Arnold. “They understand how to meet these businesses where they are, whether they're still on legacy PBX systems or rebuilding after the pandemic's patchwork solutions.” He emphasized that Wildix's message is no longer about PBX replacement, but about transforming communications into a strategic asset. “Voice is no longer just about making phone calls — it's data. Once AI enters the picture, conversations become business intelligence, and that's where Wildix is delivering real value,” Arnold explained. Arnold also praised the company's verticalized offerings, including AI-powered retail and healthcare solutions that demonstrate tangible returns for customers and simplify the sales process for MSPs. “They're giving the channel out-of-the-box vertical solutions with integrations already done — that's gold for partners, because it accelerates time to market and reduces disruption,” he said. From workflow automation and open APIs to remote-friendly deployment, Arnold concluded that Wildix exemplifies a vendor that both lives and delivers on the distributed-work model. “They've stayed true to their SMB roots while bringing the power of AI to that market — and that's a story worth paying attention to,” he added.

At the Wildix Partner Day in Venice, Italy, Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green spoke with Stewart Donnor, Sales Engineers Manager at Wildix, about how the company's channel-first innovation and AI-powered automation are redefining the unified communications experience for partners and their customers. “Wildix is 100% channel, and our engineering team works side-by-side with partners from discovery through deal close,” Donnor explained. “We design every deployment around the customer's exact workflow — no cookie-cutter solutions.” Donnor described Wildix's flexible, customizable UCaaS and PBX ecosystem that bridges the gap between traditional telephony and modern digital engagement. The platform supports cloud, hybrid, and hardware PBXs, integrates with Microsoft Teams, CRM systems, and digital channels such as WhatsApp and SMS, and now incorporates Wilma AI — an agentic automation tool capable of handling workflows across more than 500 third-party applications. “AI is now our best employee — it never takes time off and it's always ready to work,” Donnor said. “We're using automation not to replace people, but to extend customer access and improve employee experience.” The Wildix product stack — including x-bees for collaboration and x-hoppers for retail and frontline environments — demonstrates this blend of innovation and practicality. By embedding communication into headsets and mobile endpoints, Wildix gives store associates real-time access to AI-driven knowledge and instant customer assistance, improving both staff retention and ROI. For organizations reassessing their communications post-COVID, Wildix provides migration flexibility for both legacy PBX users and those looking to upgrade hastily adopted UCaaS systems. “Many companies made quick decisions during COVID and had to compromise,” Donnor noted. “Now they're ready for a solution that restores capability without giving up control — and that's where Wildix shines.” With weekly software releases, a direct feedback loop between sales engineering and product development, and security built into every instance, Donnor emphasized Wildix's commitment to keeping partners and customers on the cutting edge. “We're agile, European-born, and secure by design. Each build is unique — future-proofing isn't just a promise, it's baked into our DNA.” To learn more about Wildix's AI-driven UCaaS and partner ecosystem, visit wildix.com.

At the Wildix Partner Day in Venice, Italy, Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green sat down with Steve Osler, CEO of Wildix, to discuss how the company is using AI and automation to transform unified communications — and to empower partners with new revenue opportunities. “The main reason to move to Wildix today isn't just to unify communications — it's to automate and improve business processes, especially with AI,” said Osler. “We're helping companies replace human interactions in routine communication and integrate AI to boost sales and efficiency.” Founded in 2005 in Trento, Italy, Wildix began as a PBX innovator before becoming one of the first companies to deliver a WebRTC-based unified communications platform in 2012. Two decades later, the company is now focused on the next evolution: agentic AI and business process automation. Osler explained that AI is not simply a feature but a catalyst for business transformation. From automated scheduling and customer engagement to Salesforce-integrated workflows, Wildix enables customers to achieve measurable ROI while giving partners full ownership of their customer relationships and billing. “We don't publish price lists because every solution delivers a different value,” Osler noted. “A basic PBX may be $10 per user, but the same platform, integrated with AI and CRM automation, can be worth thousands.” Wildix's vertical specialization is also central to its strategy. Products such as x-bees, a sales tool integrated with Salesforce, and x-hoppers, a communications platform for retail frontline workers, demonstrate how narrowing focus creates greater differentiation and customer value. On the topic of Microsoft Teams integration, Osler emphasized that Wildix complements rather than competes with Teams. “We provide the telephone services and smart automation that Teams can't — the goal isn't to deliver dial tone, but to deliver value,” he said. Looking ahead to 2026, Osler stressed that partner enablement is key to Wildix's growth. “We're training partners not just to sell AI, but to understand it — to identify the right use cases, show value, and implement fast.” For Wildix, AI isn't a distant concept; it's a practical, deployable advantage. As Osler concluded with a smile: “The best way to learn more about Wildix? Ask AI.” Learn more about Wildix and its channel-first UCaaS and AI automation strategy at wildix.com.

At the Wildix Partner Day in Venice, Italy, Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green sat down with Jason Uslan of Wildix to discuss how the European-born UCaaS and PBX provider is helping small and midsize businesses modernize communications while preserving the trusted channel relationship. “Wildix is 100% channel — we only go to market through our partners,” Uslan explained. “That local partner knows the customer, understands their workflows, and can tailor the solution to fit their needs.” Wildix's unified platform enables SMBs to consolidate fragmented communications — legacy PBX, Microsoft Teams, CRM tools, and email — into a single, flexible system focused on both customer and employee experience. Designed for scalability, the Wildix solution gives partners full control over deployment, billing, and customer ownership while offering end users a seamless, device-agnostic experience across office and remote environments. Uslan emphasized that Wildix fits the SMB market “because it's built for it.” The platform is fully customizable down to the user level, integrates natively with Microsoft Teams and leading CRMs, and supports open APIs for third-party extensions through partners like Red Cactus. “We don't want to disrupt how people work — we want to help them work smarter, faster, and better,” he said. Looking ahead, AI will play a central role in Wildix's evolution. Uslan noted that the company approaches AI “with an ROI mindset — helping SMBs do more without replacing people, by making their teams more efficient.” From improving coaching and analytics through its x-bees employee experience (EX) tools to driving better customer experience (CX), Wildix is positioning partners and customers alike for the next decade of intelligent, integrated communications.

The market lost ground on Friday after Wall Street fell back following President Donald Trump's meeting with China's Xi Jinping as investors remained concerned over persisting trade tensions between Washington and Beijing. Urgent Care Centers begin operating on Sundays Urgent Care Centers began operating on Sunday at 13 locations across the six special municipalities, staffed by rotating primary care physicians. Health Minister Shih Chung-liang says centers will be open on Sundays and national holidays for patients with fevers, respiratory symptoms, gastrointestinal symptoms, minor injuries or acute (急性) discomfort in children. The fees will be lower than large hospitals and are party of efforts by the government to reducing patient numbers in emergency rooms.

UK One Train Stabbing Suspect Released Without Charge British police say one of two men arrested over a stabbing attack on a train has been released without charge. The attack took place as the 6:25 p.m. train from Doncaster in northern England to London's King's Cross station was about halfway through its two-hour journey, having just departed (離開) from a stop. The only remaining suspect is a 32-year-old British man who remains in custody on suspicion of attempted murder. Police said earlier that two men, aged 32 and 35, were arrested after the attack that left 11 people hospitalized. One victim remains in a life-threatening condition – a member of train staff whom police say saved lives with his “heroic” actions.

After decades in beauty and brand-building, celebrity colorist Kadi Lee and entrepreneur Myka Harris have created something refreshingly intentional: Highbrow Hippie, a Venice-based salon and lifestyle brand where artistry, wellness, and conscious living intersect.In this warm and unfiltered conversation, Kadi and Myka reflect on the long road from blog to brick-and-mortar, the failed investor partnership that taught them everything, and the intuition-meets-data mindset that guides their business decisions. They share how they built a community long before products, and how that trust became the foundation for a loyal global following.From the quiet luxury of their five-chair atelier to the holistic rituals behind their hair health line, the duo opens up about creating culture, hiring slow and firing fast, and funding a beauty brand on their own terms. They speak candidly about the realities of entrepreneurship as Black women, the exhaustion of the grind, and the unglamorous but necessary balance between creativity and financial fluency.With humor, honesty, and hard-won wisdom, Kadi and Myka remind us that building something enduring isn't about chasing perfection; it's about alignment, resilience, and the courage to keep going when no one else sees the vision yet.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[02:37] How a Venice salon became a sanctuary where beauty and wellness truly intersect[06:44] The holistic insight that turned hair health into a wellness story, not a vanity one[09:52] Why pairing intuition with data changed everything in their product development process[12:26] The reason community came before product and how that built lifelong brand trust[15:03] What it takes to lead with values and speak truthfully, even when it polarizes people[18:32] How two longtime friends turned complementary strengths into a thriving partnership[20:10] The hidden cost of the grind and what “balance” really looks like for women founders[23:14] Why creatives must master business to sustain their artistry long-term[32:18] How losing the wrong investor opened the door to raising money on their own terms[36:52] The single mindset shift that helps them push through every obstacleUse code MAKERS15 for a discount at www.highbrowhippie.comResources Mentioned:Dream Ventures Accelerator | WebsiteHighbrow Hippie | WebsiteFollow Highbrow Hippie on Instagram.Follow Myka on Instagram and LinkedIn.Follow Kadi on LinkedIn.Follow Nancy Twine:Instagram: @nancytwinewww.nancytwine.comFollow Makers Mindset:Instagram: @makersmindsetspaceTikTok: @themakersmindsetwww.makersmindset.com

A rare episode that falls below the one-hour mark, but there are valid reasons:1) It's not the busiest time in golf, 2) Andrew is at death's door so hasn't got quite as much of his non-golf nonsense to waffle on about, 3) Eddie professes to being in the doldrums so isn't really feeling it as he prepares for the second stage of Q-School and 4) Iain is in Venice and has a lot of explaining to do to his sister-in-law.All that being said, we hope you still enjoy it and come back soon.Visit: www.petermillar.co.ukEmail:tcf@thechippingforecast.co.ukInstagram: @chippingforecast Hosted on Acast.

Both read over 200 books a year, and their reading stacks this year have included the Booker longlist.  And so who better to consider the books that didn't make the final cut – but which are, notwithstanding, the 'best' books selected from over 150 submitted titles. As we know, really great books can get overlooked for the shortlist. Consider Trust by Hernan Diaz, longlisted but not shortlisted, or, going further back Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro and before that Penelope Fitzgerald's miraculous novel The Blue Flower. The fallibility of the judging process thus proven let's leave no stone unturned in considering this year's selection. Did the judges overlook a new favourite read?
