Is there anyone who will defend Kamala Harris' latest debacle, her 107 Days memoir that has irritated prominent Democrats like Josh Shapiro, Tim Walz and Pete Buttigieg? Certainly not the progressive writer David Masciotra, who has appeared on this show several times in the past to defend the former Vice President. According to Masciotra, the person most damaged by the ridiculous narcissism in 107 Days is Harris herself, who appears utterly out of touch with reality. "I was wrong, you were right," Masciotra admitted to me (never a fan of Harris), describing the memoir as a "literary political travesty" that reveals Harris as a "callous, petty, self-involved careerist." Even more damning, Masciotra argues, the book's timing couldn't be worse: while Trump dismantles democracy, Harris chooses to settle scores with the very Democrats who helped her in the last election, effectively torching her political future.1. Progressive Defender Completely Reverses Position on Harris David Masciotra, who previously defended Harris in "spats" with Keen, now admits: "I was wrong, you were right." He calls the memoir a "literary political travesty" revealing Harris as a "callous, petty, self-involved careerist" - a stunning reversal from a left-wing intellectual who wanted to support her against Trump.2. Harris Attacks Every Democrat Who Helped Her The book targets Joe Biden (who made her VP and endorsed her), Tim Walz (her chosen running mate), Josh Shapiro, and even includes complaints from her husband Doug Emhoff. As Masciotra notes, she's "trying to set fire to an already weak, enfeebled Democratic Party" by attacking those who supported her candidacy.3. The Timing Reveals Profound Political Incompetence While Trump "dismantles civil society" and threatens the First Amendment, Harris publishes a book settling personal scores. Masciotra observes she's quoting her husband about being mistreated instead of "quoting a nurse who worked at a defunded Planned Parenthood clinic" or others suffering under Trump's policies.4. The Book Effectively Ends Any Future Political Ambitions Both interviewers agree this memoir kills Harris's political future. When asked if she might run again, Masciotra suggests if she thought this book would launch a 2028 campaign, "she should probably seek psychiatric help rather than political."5. Harris Lives in a Parallel Universe Disconnected from Political Reality The memoir reveals someone who doesn't understand basic humor (missing Gore Vidal's wit), blamed her loss on identity factors ("a black woman married to a Jewish man"), and believed Pete Buttigieg would have been ideal "if I were a straight white man" - showing she fundamentally misunderstands why she lost.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

The past few years have seen a seismic shift in energy and industrial policy in the United States. Under Biden, laws like the Inflation Reduction Act led to money pouring into clean energy manufacturing and deployment. The Trump administration has reversed course, cutting off incentives in instituting massive tariffs.  As a result, entire clean energy projects have been put on hold or even canceled. Workers who were counting on those projects now face an uncertain future. This situation forces tough questions for unions: Where do they go from here?

In this special solocast of The Athletics of Business Podcast, host Ed Molitor takes us on a personal and powerful journey through the life, lessons, and lasting legacy of legendary coach George Raveling. This isn't about hearing what you want to hear; it's about hearing what you need to hear. Ed shares how Coach Raveling's words and philosophies shaped him as a young boy, carried him through dark times, and continue to guide his leadership and parenting today. Through stories of cassette tapes in a hot car, life-changing camp speeches, and powerful lessons on accountability and resilience, Ed paints a vivid picture of a man who impacted thousands, from athletes to leaders to everyday people, striving to be better.   In Loving Memory of George Raveling - Extract from letter by The Daily Coach On September 1st, the world lost a remarkable person: George Henry Raveling, our mentor, co-founder, and beloved "Coach." He passed away peacefully at 88, surrounded by his family, after a courageous battle with cancer. Coach Raveling was born in 1937 in a world that didn't recognize his humanity. Despite the challenges of segregation, he overcame adversity with determination and made a significant impact on countless lives. His legacy is more than just his success in sports and leadership; it's about the people he touched and the transformations he inspired. Coach was a gentle, compassionate, and humble soul. He believed in the importance of relationships over victories. His life was about guiding others, offering wisdom, and caring for people, no matter their background. His approach to leadership was uncommon, challenging the status quo and always staying true to his values. He was a friend, mentor, confidant, and source of inspiration to many. His wisdom and kindness left a lasting impression on all who knew him. Although we are deeply saddened by his loss, we celebrate his 88 years of life—years full of purpose and meaning. Coach's story reminds us that it's never too late to pursue what lights up our soul and make a difference in the world. His mantra, “If it is to be, it's up to me,” embodies his relentless spirit. Coach Raveling's impact transcends accolades. He was simply a good person who lived fully, helping others along the way. He will be remembered for his resilience, curiosity, love for life, and the legacy of kindness he leaves behind. Our condolences and love go to the Raveling family and all who were touched by Coach's life. We will continue to honor his legacy through how we live, love, lead, and treat others. Rest in peace, Coach. You will always be adored and missed.   Our Host Ed is a coach down to the very smallest molecule of his DNA. Whether he's a husband and father at home or working with a client in the business world, he is an energized, passionate, and near-obsessive coach who is fully invested in showing up with all he's got to help you show up with all you've got. His approach insists on presence. He knows no other way to catalyze change except by getting on the court with you, playing side-by-side, and encouraging you to keep pushing, especially when the going gets tough.  In the last 30 years, Ed has developed his leadership skills in both athletics and business. From working as an NCAA Basketball coach at Texas A&M, DePaul NIU, and Lewis University to becoming the Vice President of a national recruiting firm, Ed Molitor has experienced the potential and pitfalls of leadership at every level.  As the founder and CEO of The Molitor Group, today Ed guides emerging and established leaders across biopharma and biotech to apply the proven lessons of coaching in their pursuit of inspiring and driving their team's performance.  Through personalized training, workshops, keynote speeches, his writing, and as a podcast host, Ed seeks to empower individuals and their organizations to achieve victory through a focus on transformation, fundamentals, compassion, mental toughness, and vision. Ed graduated from St. Ambrose University with a B.S. in Business Administration and a minor in Economics where he was a member of the Men's Basketball team serving as the co-captain his Senior year. Before St. Ambrose, he studied business at Creighton University where he played on the Men's Basketball teams which included a 1989 MVC Regular Season and Tournament Champions, NCAA Tournament, and a 1990 NIT Tournament.   What You'll Learn in This Episode “If it is to be, it's up to me.” How Coach Raveling's famous mantra instilled ownership, responsibility, and resilience. The importance of telling people what they need to hear, not just what they want to hear. How leadership is less about wins and losses and more about relationships, impact, and transformation. Personal reflections on parenting, leadership, and carrying forward Coach Raveling's legacy. Why his influence extended beyond basketball shaping culture, mentorship, and even history (including his role in the March on Washington and the creation of Air Jordan).   Resources & Links Ed Molitor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/themolitorgroup/ Website: https://www.themolitorgroup.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theathleticsofbusiness    Timestamps (00:00) Introduction to Coach George Raveling (01:13) The lasting impact of Coach Raveling's lessons (03:34) "If it is to be, it is up to me": The power of personal ownership (05:42) How Coach's teachings shaped Ed's life and leadership (07:53) The role of mentors in personal growth and leadership (10:45) Coach Raveling's influence on basketball and beyond (12:18) Stories from Ed's childhood and the influence of Coach Raveling (14:56) The importance of relationships over wins and losses (16:35) Reflections on mentorship and legacy (18:42) Coach Raveling's role in shaping Michael Jordan's partnership with Nike (21:00) The power of community in leadership (23:06) The importance of mentorship for emerging leaders (25:01) Final reflections on living a life of impact and leadership

In 1860, he ran for president as the Southern Democratic candidate, but the nation soon fractured with Lincoln's election and the Civil War. Breckinridge joined the Confederacy, rising to general and later serving as its last Secretary of War. After fleeing into exile, he eventually returned home to Kentucky, where he lived out his final years away from politics.

I have such a fun show for you today! You are getting a sneak peek into a conversation with one of my oldest friends, Pam Fierst-Walsh. This is Pam's second time on the show. It's so fun to record with a friend. I even forget we were on a podcast at one point because this is just who we are and how we talk. As you will hear, Pam and I recently went on a retreat together.

In this captivating episode of Reading with Your Kids, host Jed Doherty takes listeners on a delightful exploration of two remarkable children's books that spark imagination and address childhood experiences. First, author Sherri L. Smith introduces her speculative middle-grade novel, "Candace, the Universe and Everything." The book follows Candace, an eighth-grader navigating friendship challenges and a mysterious locker with an intriguing portal. Smith shares her writing journey, explaining how the story emerged from understanding how friendships evolve and the universal experience of feeling left out during adolescence. With a background in writing for comics like The Simpsons and licensed characters, Smith brings a unique perspective to storytelling. Her novel explores the "what if" concept, blending science fiction elements with relatable coming-of-age experiences. She's passionate about creating stories that help children understand complex emotional landscapes. The episode then shifts to Paul Mayer's heartwarming picture book, "The Big Yellow Adventure." As Vice President of Marketing at Dattco Transportaion, Mayer created this book to help children overcome anxiety about riding the school bus for the first time. The story follows Lily, a nervous kindergartener who discovers the joy of her first bus ride with the help of a friendly driver and a new friend. Mayer collaborated with Optimus Healthcare to ensure the book's content was age-appropriate and supportive. The book is available for free download in both English and Spanish, with a special coloring book version to engage young readers. Both authors demonstrate the power of children's literature in addressing emotional challenges, sparking imagination, and creating meaningful connections between parents and children.

Sometimes the best ideas are the simplest and seem the most obvious in hindsight. Co-warehousing is one of these ideas. Co-warehousing was created for small, often start-up businesses to rent smaller spaces for shorter periods of time. These spaces are typically sub-1000 s/ft, as small as 250 s/ft, which are desirable to entrepreneurs who can be moving out of a home office or storage space, or just starting out. Co-warehousing also offers these tenants shared amenities. Jeff Jenkins, Vice President of Acquisitions for WareSpace, was the second employee back in 2021 and is responsible for expanding the company's footprint nationwide.

Ginger shares how her organization has embraced cloud-based systems, built a transparent IT culture, and developed a governance model that empowers business units. The conversation also dives into leadership styles, AI adoption, and the importance of aligning IT with organizational goals. Themes and Topics:Digital Strategy vs. Digital TransformationGinger emphasizes that it's time to move from digital transformation to governing and optimizing digital strategy.AACSB's digital strategy sits just below organizational strategy and guides tools, communication, and member engagement.Many associations still focus on transformation, but the real challenge is managing change in a cloud-based world.Leadership Through Transparency and PartnershipGinger uses a public-facing Monday board to share IT priorities and progress with the entire organization.Business units are involved in strategic planning, fostering collaboration and shared ownership.Her leadership style is described as “gentle maneuvers” rather than command and control.Best-of-Breed Technology and Integration StrategyAACSB avoids long-term vendor lock-in, preferring 3-year contracts and best-of-breed solutions.A centralized data warehouse enables flexible integrations and easier system replacements.The organization has decoupled its AMS from other systems to reduce disruption and increase agility.Governance and Change ManagementGinger highlights the importance of protocols for change to avoid chaos in a cloud environment.The IT Steering Committee, though currently paused, played a key role in prioritizing initiatives across departments.Change management is reframed as adoption and strategic communication, using digital strategy as the glue.AI Adoption and Organizational ReadinessGinger is pursuing a doctorate focused on AI and machine learning, but sees slow adoption at the organizational level.She warns that AI is being explored individually, not strategically, and leaders need to drive top-down initiatives.-ChatGPT-enhanced emails are not enough. Real transformation requires leadership engagement.Professional Development and Personal GrowthGinger is a Six Sigma Black Belt, beekeeper, and self-described professional development junkie.Her journey from receptionist to VP over 20 years reflects a deep commitment to learning and leadership.She encourages her team to keep moving forward: “If you're not moving forward, you're being left behind.”

What if the biggest value of AI isn’t answers, but better questions? For Morgan Brown, Vice President of Product and Growth at Dropbox, that realisation has transformed everything from family dinners to global product strategy. In this episode, I chat with Morgan about how he uses AI as both a problem-solver and a sparring partner.

This conversation will show you practical ways to turn AI into a genuine partner for your work and life.
