"My teenage daughter looked at me. She said, 'Oh, Dad, you should put that in a folder called nobody cares.' Okay, not everything I learn will be in this book. And then the question became, 'What is Lin-Manuel learning from this story?' And if he's not learning anything from it, even if it's fun, it's got to go in the deleted scenes," says Daniel Pollack-Pelzner, author of Lin-Manuel Miranda: The Education of an Artists (Simon & Schuster).Daniel Pollack-Pelzner, the Notorius DPP, is charismatic as he is brilliant. Maybe some of that seasoning rubbed off on me. One can dream. He teaches English and theater at Portland State University. He received the Graves Award from the American Council of Learned Societies for outstanding teaching in the humanities. His work has appeared in The New Yorker, the Atlantic and the New York Times.Wanna know how sickening Daniel is? He has a BA in history from Yale and a PhD in English from Harvard. Gross. Ew, right? Ew. You can learn more about Daniel's disgusting intelligence and equally freaky contributions to the culture at danielpollackpelzner.com and follow him on IG at danielpollackpelzner.This conversation was so lively and great and we talk about: How he pitched Lin-Manuel Miranda on being his biographer Being driven by curiosity Having to earn scenes The “fun of it” framing Balancing salt, acid, fat, and heat Maintaining a sense of play with the work What Daniel learned from Lin-Manuel And taking the harsh feedback from trusted readersOrder The Front RunnerWelcome to Pitch ClubShow notes: brendanomeara.com

In this episode, Dirk Singer speaks with James Hygate, Founder and CEO of Firefly Green Fuels, about one of the more unconventional and potentially scalable sustainable aviation fuel pathways: converting sewage biosolids into jet fuel.Hygate discusses: Why Firefly is “feedstock-led”, and why that matters more than the technologyHow sewage biosolids emerged as the preferred feedstock for Firefly due to their abundance, consistency, and increasing difficulty of disposal.How hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) works like “a pressure cooker” to turn sewage into biocrude and biochar Why Firefly believes its fuel could achieve over 90% lifecycle CO2 savings, potentially even becoming carbon-negativeHow sewage-to-SAF could scale in the UK and why it could “come from left field” in mandate mathsWhat is required for SAF projects to be bankable including long-term feedstock supply and offtake agreementsHow sewage-based SAF can reach cost parity with Jet AIf you LOVED this episode, you'll also love the conversation we had with Dr Mar Fernández-Méndez, Co-founder of MacroCarbon, who shares how the startup plans to turn seaweed into SAF.

Agile in Construction: The DOWNTIME Strategy—Eliminating Waste Before Adding Process With Felipe Engineer-Manriquez Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "My first rule is that I will do no harm. And if something goes wrong, I will take full responsibility with leadership. My neck is literally on the line." - Felipe Engineer-Manriquez Felipe shares his change strategy for introducing Lean and Agile into construction projects, and it starts with an unexpected principle borrowed from Hippocrates: do no harm. He explicitly tells teams this promise, putting his neck on the line to build trust. But the real magic happens in what comes next: instead of adding new processes, Felipe first helps teams stop doing things. Using the DOWNTIME acronym (Defects, Overproduction, Waiting, Transportation, Inventory, Motion, Excess processing), he identifies wasteful activities that don't add value. In construction, 60-80% of every dollar doesn't add value from the customer's perspective—compared to manufacturing (above 50% value) or agriculture (90% value). Felipe's approach: eliminate waste first to create excess capacity, then introduce new processes. On a project that was 2 years behind schedule with lawyers already engaged, he spent just 5 minutes with the team defining a visible milestone goal on a whiteboard. Two weeks later, they met their schedule and improved by 4 days—the first time ever. The superintendent said, "Never in the entire time I've worked here have we ever met a schedule commitment." The secret? Free up capacity before adding anything new. In this episode, we refer to the 8 wastes video by Orbus and WIP limits. Self-reflection Question: Before introducing your next process improvement, what wasteful activity could you help your team stop doing to free up the capacity they need to embrace change?

Shubhi Sachan is a multi-disciplinary designer and the founder of Material Library of India. The New Delhi-based library was the first of its type in India and acts as a research and design consultancy committed to unlocking the potential of industrial and agricultural waste – of which India, a country with a population of over 1.4 billion people, has plenty.Over the years, MLI has worked with brands and organisations such as IKEA and the British Council, as well as presenting work and ideas across the globe, including at last year's Material Matters London where it reimagined cotton as a climate-adaptive, culturally rich material.In this episode Shubhi discusses: setting up MLI in 2017; why she decided to tackle waste in the first instance; India's relationship with textiles and ‘waste colonialism'; the importance of the ‘rebirth' of industrial materials; how natural materials can look after themselves; her recent project on cotton and why the crop needs to be re-thought; opening a thrift store where textiles are the currency; refusing to reject capitalism; curating seeds for IKEA; creating streetwear from rejected condoms; studying in England; becoming a successful surface designer; and why her family have questioned her career choices.Support the show

In this episode of the Don't Waste the Chaos Podcast, Kerri Roberts, business & HR consultant and podcast host, dives into the leadership clarity crisis showing up in organizations everywhere. When people don't clearly understand what success looks like, teams drift, decision-making slows, and emotional health takes a hit. Kerri explains why clarity isn't a “nice-to-have” soft skill - it's the strongest predictor of performance, alignment, and execution (and yes, the bottom line).Kerri also shares real-life leadership stories from complex, committee-driven environments and high-trust peer learning spaces - highlighting how clarity can either drain momentum or unlock it. She introduces a practical “anatomy of leadership clarity” framework (purpose, expectations, and communication), then walks you through micro-activities to reset direction with your team. If you're serious about purpose-driven leadership, integrity in business, and overcoming chaos with sustainable success, this episode gives you a plan you can implement immediately.Key TakeawaysClarity is the highest form of leadership - it drives performance, alignment, and sustainable success.Ambiguity is expensive: it drains momentum, slows decisions, and damages culture and emotional health.Three dimensions of leadership clarity: clarity of purpose, clarity of expectations, and clarity of communication.Complexity feels smart, but clarity feels like leadership - repeat one unifying phrase to reinforce direction.Small, consistent practices (weekly reviews, clear success statements, role clarity) create trust and execution.ResourcesHR in a BoxIf you're a small business owner who needs HR support without the full-time hire, HR in a Box is the most affordable way to work with Kerri in a group setting. It's built for businesses typically in the 5–30 employee range (and some up to 50) who want a solid HR foundation, better leadership practices, and fewer preventable fires.

Meghan Markle's Netflix lifestyle series With Love, Meghan has quietly flopped, pulling in roughly two million views in its second season and landing outside the streamer's top one thousand shows, a drop of more than sixty percent from its debut.Critics pile on, with a celebrity chef calling the show dull, uninspired and a “complete waste of money,” while reports suggest Meghan is scrambling to salvage the brand with holiday specials. At the same time, the Sussexes are said to be pivoting toward a glossy rom-com movie deal at Netflix, exposing fresh tension at home as Harry reportedly recoils from Hollywood, hates the optics and resents being turned into part of a marketing strategy. Add staff churn, social media backlash and claims Meghan is increasingly featuring the children to drive engagement, and the picture emerging is of a brand chasing attention while the audience steadily drifts away.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Show NotesSummaryIn this episode, Ms. G delves into the pervasive issue of worry, a common experience that many people face but often hesitate to discuss. She emphasizes that while it's natural to worry, it ultimately serves no productive purpose and can detract from our peace and trust in God. Drawing from biblical references, she highlights the distinction between worry and wisdom, urging listeners to recognize that worrying does not solve problems but rather keeps us stuck in anxiety about the future. Ms. G encourages a shift from worry to trust, emphasizing that trusting God is an active choice that requires daily commitment and prayer.Ms. G further explores the idea that worry can signal a lack of faith or an attempt to control outcomes that are beyond our grasp. She invites listeners to reflect on what they are worrying about and to surrender those burdens to God. By replacing worry with prayer and gratitude, individuals can find peace and clarity. The episode concludes with a powerful reminder that while challenges are inevitable, God promises to be with us through them, and trusting Him is the key to experiencing true peace.TakeawaysWorry is a waste; it doesn't solve problems.Trusting God is an active choice, not passive.Worry keeps us stuck in the future, missing today's grace.Replace worry with prayer and gratitude.What are you worrying about that God is asking you to surrender?Worry vs. Wisdom: Choosing Trust Over AnxietySurrendering Worry: Finding Peace in Trusting God"Worrying has never solved a single problem.""Exchange worry for prayer, anxiety for Thanksgiving.""Worry is a burden we were never designed to carry."Keywords: worry, trust, faith, wisdom, prayer, anxiety, God, peace, Christian living, surrenderSound Bites Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Worry01:57 Worry vs. Wisdom05:47 The Impact of Worry on Trust06:46 Choosing Trust Over Panic09:38 Surrendering Worry to God

Are you carrying leadership weight you were never meant to hold?In this episode of the Don't Waste the Chaos Podcast, Kerri M. Roberts, leadership consultant and former executive, addresses a growing issue across organizations: leaders carrying far more mental and emotional weight than is sustainable. Drawing from over two decades in leadership and consulting, Kerri explores why burnout has become normalized, and why that normalization is quietly eroding clarity, culture, and performance.Rather than offering another productivity tactic, Kerri reframes leadership maturity as release, not accumulation. She explains how decision fatigue, over-functioning, and identity tied too closely to work can leave leaders exhausted, disconnected, and reactive. Through personal stories and real-world leadership examples, she shows how being “the answer to everything” often creates more chaos - not less.This episode is a reset for leaders who want to operate with intention instead of exhaustion. The takeaway is simple but powerful: when leaders stop carrying what they were never meant to hold, they gain clarity, strengthen their teams, and lead with greater impact.Key Takeaways Burnout isn't a badge of honor. It's a signal that something in leadership design is misaligned.Decision fatigue steals strategic clarity. Leaders who carry every choice lose focus and long-term effectiveness.Delegation is a leadership discipline. Holding everything limits both you and your team.Presence builds engagement. People thrive when leaders prioritize connection over constant pressure.Release increases impact. Sustainable leadership starts by letting go of unnecessary weight.Sponsors & ResourcesHR in a BoxIf you're carrying the full weight of hiring, people management, compliance, performance issues, and culture - it's no wonder leadership feels heavy.

Aphiwe's grandmother taught her to flatten cardboard boxes when she was just a kid, selling the tiny "baby bundles" and saving the money in a piggy bank. Now 19, Aphiwe wears her grandmother's old work clothes and does the job alone — supporting her entire family. Waste pickers like Aphiwe recover 80% of South Africa's recycled plastic and paper, yet earn poverty wages in an industry that depends on them but won't protect them.ShownotesSupport the work of Radio Workshop by donating today.Sources Occupational Groups in the Informal Economy: Waste PickersInfrastructure News - Stop Pretending Waste Pickers Don't ExistNature News - South Africa's waste pickers deserve more recognition for environmental role Newcastillian News - SA's Recycling Lie: What Really Happens to Your RubbishAcknowledgementsThis episode would not be possible without support from the UMI Fund.

For the past 11 years, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) has released his annual “Festivus Report” to air grievances. While the name is a reference to a Seinfeld episode, the report itself is legitimate, detailing what he believes were some of the most egregious examples of the federal government wasting our tax dollars in the previous year.Since the start of the report, the dollar amount of the government “waste” he cites has grown significantly.In 2015, it was a little over a billion dollars. By 2019, it was $50 billion dollars. The latest report for 2025 showed that the figure hit a cool $1.639 trillion dollars. It's worth mentioning that a huge portion of that total comes from interest payments on the national debt, which Senator Paul now includes in his overall tally. U.S. taxpayers paid $1.22 trillion dollars in interest just to service the national debt last year. That is significantly more than the Pentagon's entire budget—and given the fact that that money is literally going to nothing other than interest, there's a good case to be made to include that figure in the overall wasted spending report.Setting the interest payments aside, let's go through nine of the most interesting examples of government waste from the report.

In this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor takes a hard look at fraud, waste, and abuse in government—and why the Trump administration’s push for transparency continues to rattle the political establishment. From Elon Musk’s role in demanding accountability to the backlash from entrenched interests, Tudor breaks down how powerful figures are challenging a broken system. The conversation then zeroes in on Michigan’s election integrity crisis, where troubling voting trends since 2018 have raised red flags. Tudor is joined by Macomb County Clerk Tony Forlini, who reveals shocking findings about non-citizens appearing in jury pools and voter rolls, and what that means for the integrity of local and national elections. Forlini outlines the urgent need for reforms, including a national citizenship verification database, to ensure only eligible voters cast ballots. As the episode wraps, Tudor issues a call to action for listeners to get involved in critical local races, emphasizing how down-ballot elections shape the future of Michigan and the country. If you care about election security, voter fraud prevention, and restoring trust in democracy, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

Get free marketing videos from Donald Miller every week at: https://WeeklySoundbite.com/ Most business owners waste thousands on billboards that never bring in a single lead. Why? Because they try to be clever instead of clear. When your brand isn't a household name, confusing messaging on a massive sign just becomes expensive noise on the side of the road. No one's pulling over to decode your inside jokes or admire your witty wordplay. If your billboard doesn't solve a problem in 7 words or less, it's not advertising, it's art. And art doesn't convert. So why do so many companies still get this wrong? In this episode, Donald Miller takes you through a hilarious, no-holds-barred review of real billboards from across the country. From duct tape ads to funeral home puns, Don breaks down exactly what works, what flops, and why "cute and clever" usually kills your ROI. If you want your marketing to actually make money—whether it's on a billboard, website header, or tagline—this episode will sharpen your instincts and make you rethink every word you publish. -- Click HERE to get in-person help creating your marketing at the next available StoryBrand Your Business LIVE event!
