When Ed and his three adult sons come together to celebrate Christmas, they enjoy cheerful trash-talking, pranks, and takeout Chinese. Then they confront a problem that even being a happy family can't solve: When identity matters, and privilege is problematic, what is the value of being a straight white man? Listen to Features Editor Becca Martin-Brown chat with actor Ed McClure and director Brenda Nemec about the Arkansas Public Theatre production of Young Jean Lee's comedy.
Imagine if your father took you at three years-old, kidnapped you and then told you your mother was dead. Then, once taken to another part of the country, your father basically abandons you and leaves you to be raised in several different foster homes and orphanages. This is what happened to today's special guest, Ed Hajim, well before Google, Social media and all the ways we now track down folks. Ed was left in poverty, abandoned and feeling incredibly lonely. When Ed was sixty-years-old, with the help of an old suitcase, he found letters indicating that his mother was very much alive. He was angry with his then late father for being so selfish and taken Ed from his own mother. Learning his mother was alive, who he hadn't seen since he was three-years-old, 57-years-later, everything Ed knew went upside down. And his sense of trust questioned. He had to think, does he reach out to his mother, would she want to see him or reject him? Ed explains his incredible story of resilience, discipline and using his inner voice to navigate his life -which is a true rags-to-riches American story - in his just released inspiring and riveting memoir, On the Road Less Traveled: An Unlikely Journey from the Orphanage to the Boardroom. Despite his difficult early years, Ed learned to survive, to keep himself strong and focused. And step by step, he turned his life around, eventually living the American dream with the help of a NROTC college scholarship, got himself through the University of Rochester and then attended Harvard Business School. Became a Wall Street executive, a business tycoon of the highest order. In 2008, after 20 years as a trustee of the University of Rochester, Hajim became chairman of its board and gave the school $30 million to support scholarships and endow the Edmund A. Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences - the largest single donation in its history.

Welcome back to 2021! In the spirit of it being summer in Australia and cricket dominating the sporting headlines, I am delighted to be bringing you my chat with former Australian test cricketer, Ed Cowan. I’ve always been fascinated by how elite athletes manage the transition out of sport and into new careers, and my guest for this episode has a lot to say on that topic. Ed Cowan is a former Australian test cricketer who made his debut for New South Wales in 2005 before going onto be selected for the Australian national team that played in India in the 2011 Boxing Day test. During his almost sixteen-year, first class cricket career, Ed played 18 Tests for Australia, scored 10,097 runs and wrote a book called, In the Firing Line, Diary of a Season. But Ed knew all along that sport is not a lifelong career. Along the way, he started a business with a teammate as a kind of “real life MBA” – Tripod Coffee, offering Nespresso-compatible coffee pods that are environmentally friendly. When Ed made the decision to retire from the game in 2018, having a business certainly helped, but he says it was still a challenging time. He didn’t want cricket to be the defining moment of his life, which led him to ask the question of himself, ‘what’s my next act?’ The experience also gave him an insight into the vast number of athletes who struggle mentally and emotionally with that transition and has fuelled a desire to do more in this space to help others While Ed called time on his professional playing career in March 2018 he is still involved in the game as a commentator for ABC Grandstand and as a Board Director at Cricket NSW. He is also a member of the team at private investment firm, TDM Growth Partners and host of the podcast, Scaling Up!

Happy 30th anniversary week! On October, 22 1990, Pearl Jam played their first show as Mookie Blaylock at Seattle’s Off Ramp venue. To celebrate the monumental occasion, we’re going back two decades to the band’s ten year anniversary that took place in Vegas on the Binaural tour. Joining us for this episode for some crossover love is Branden Palomo from the Better Band Podcast. While the band came out to celebrate the moment, Ed did his best to try to downplay the situation (even after he thanked Stone and Jeff for “recognizing his great talent”) by telling stories of that first night at the Off Ramp and not even being able dream that they could be in the position they were in. The fans brought balloons to shower them with during the encore, but there is one moment that gets discussed from this show that holds precedent above all... This was the first moment that Pearl Jam ever played a song written by Mother Love Bone and they chose Crown of Thorns. While the death of Andy Wood had always been a part of their history, it was something that was never quite addressed publicly. It’s an important moment in their history for so many reasons in which we’ll discuss in full detail in the episode, but this was a major part of their healing process after the Roskilde tragedy. When Ed gave Jeff and Stone a hug, it was the bonding between two entities that were so intertwined, yet had never met until that moment. Mother Love Bone and the life of Andy Wood forever became part of Pearl Jam’s story. Special news for this week! For ONE DAY only, to celebrate the 30-year anniversary we will release our episode on the Off Ramp for FREE on our Patreon platform! Only available for 24 hours and then after that will be available to subscribers only. Head on over to check it out http://Patreon.com/liveon4legs

The two talk about their first date in a dive bar and how it actually took them over nine months to see each other again after that initial date. When the two started dating, Leigh Ann was kept on her toes wondering when she was going to get her first kiss with Ed. The story of their first kiss was hilarious and I can’t wait for you to hear about it. As their relationship progressed, Leigh Ann began to wonder, when was he going to say the words, “I love you” to her. One of my favorite parts of this story is that Leigh Ann, being the awesome and bold woman she is, said it first. You will not believe Ed’s response when this happened. Ed shares the moment he knew Leigh Ann was the one and they talk about their proposal which was definitely worth the wait!

Growing up in Dublin, one of Ed’s closest friends was Lenny Abrahamson, with whom he started making films early on. When Ed founded his company Element Pictures later on with Andrew Lowe, the two continued collaborating together. After making some waves with films such as Frank or Garage, the company’s big international year was 2015 with both Room and The Lobster. They went on to produce more unique films such as Disobedience and The Favourite. Most recently, Ed and Lenny collaborated again on the wonderful series Normal People. Listen to Ed talk about his way from Filmmaking Society at Trinity to the Oscars, the Irish Film Community and why he was hoping to not like Normal People when first reading it - but thank god he did.
Ed meets Robert in Borchester – Robert’s collecting Lynda’s medication Ed’s looking forward to shearing season and Jazzer is fully on board now. Leonie rings Robert after hearing he’ll be opening then B&B again. She thinks it’s too much work for him as well as looking after Lynda but Robert won’t be persuaded otherwise. Leonie then speaks to Lynda about taking on B&B guests and insists that she comes to help them. She’ll also bring Mungo who is desperate to see Lynda. Eddie keeps Ed busy with errands all day to keep him away from Grange Farm. When Ed returns, he’s shocked to see a mobile home in the yard. Thinking it’s travellers he marches over to order them to leave. To his surprise, Emma opens the door. Emma explains this is was what the money from the joint account was for. She’s realised they don’t need a fancy house, just a home of their own. When Emma asks Ed if he will live there too, he agrees. They’ll be a proper family again and they say “I love you” to each other.
With their son, Danny, in a coma, Ed and Kate fight to protect their daughter, Beth. Unfortunately, they also fight with each other as Ed increasingly feels like he can no longer protect -- or fix -- his family. When Ed hears his co-worker, Lucas, talk about being burgled -- while he was home -- Ed buys a scrap yard robot with the intent of patrolling around his yard. This causes the neighbors to fear for their safety and prompts the police to make a visit. Danny (as Jakob) comes to the house at night to talk to Beth. She knows it's her brother. He leaves a toy of hers in the garage that she sneaks out of the house to get. Her rummaging causes Ed, who fell asleep standing guard, to bring the robot and almost kill his daughter. With his life an unfixable mess, Ed realizes that if he truly wants to save his family he needs to first fix himself. Hosted by Loren Kling and Kevin Allen.

The Stay-at-Home order has unfortunately increased your requests to be on Make Up or Break Up! Today we meet Justine from SeaTac who has written to Fitz for help with her boyfriend Ed who she has now realized is one of “those people” everyone is complaining about who is hoarding toilet paper. She says it’s not just toilet paper but all kinds of other supplies and she is concerned that he seems to be a paranoid doomsday-prepper. She says she was willing to let it go until she gave a pack of TP to her elderly neighbor and he freaked out. When Ed comes on he says this is an actual doomsday, and no one knows how long it will last, and he thinks it’s perfectly reasonable to stock up, thinking it’s better to have too much than not enough. As far as helping the next-door neighbor, he doesn’t want to become the “outpost” for a bunch of people who didn’t prepare. They both seem really reasonable but it’s clear that Justine is at the end of her rope and Ed’s doomsday could be coming from inside the house.
Ed, Founder of Open Dialogue, long-time friend of the Corkers, and DisruptHR 2019 speaker, joins Steph at the mic this week. Ed spends his days creating space for people to explore and get to know themselves. Ed explains Open Dialogue as a “blending of human led coaching with a piece of technology — an artificially intelligent chat-bot, that you can chat with kind of like a human, and it just listens and interprets what you are saying. It then responds to you with questions and prompts and guides you through a self-reflective process”. Ed explains that the AI isn’t meant to replace humans, but rather act as a mirror to highlight our own humanness. His goal with Open Dialogue is to keep us in a state of contemplation longer and more often. Ed and Steph dive into how his business was born from burnout, how his path to self-discovery was sparked by a 90’s computer program, and what it’s like working with family. When Ed isn’t driving his company forward, he is a passionate kite surfer. Listen in to hear why hobbies and interests outside of work matter, and why it’s okay to satisfy the longing to try something playful and new, even as an adult.

An authentic brand is incredibly important, especially in the digital age where we’re all trying to share our stories. In order to do that you have to be memorable and you have to stand for something. Uncle Ed's Damn Good Vodka was built with purpose and passion. https://uncleedsdamngood.com/ On this episode of Digital Hospitality, brothers Ed and Walt tell the story of their purpose-driven vodka company live from the Wonderfront Festival in San Diego, where they were a major sponsor. Wonderfront Festival co-founder (and previous guest of Digital Hospitality) Ernie Hahn makes a special appearance. Uncle Ed is the face of Uncle Ed’s Damn Good Vodka. There’s a reason for that. His ideals are the brand’s ideals. He and his vodka are on the same path. He wouldn’t be involved with the company if he didn’t think he could make a difference. Ed, an environmental scientist, and his family, including their pet pig Tuk Tuk, live on an organic island farm in Hawaii where they manage a self-sustaining existence surrounded by a beautiful lush jungle landscape. They traded in city life for a simpler life off the grid. "I needed to try something different," Ed said. Ed also knows how to make some Damn Good Vodka. For a decade, Ed and Walt have owned and operated the distillery in their home state of Idaho. They wanted to make sure the vodka company was in line with Ed’s values, including living sustainably. For example, the bottle for Uncle Ed’s Damn Good Vodka has no plastic, uses recycled paper label, flint glass, and has zero water waste. It's also gluten-free and made with non-GMO ingredients. They took what Ed stands for and bottled it. It’s a vodka with a purpose — to simplify, sustain, and give back. The company also aligns with charity, including Waves for Water, which provides clean water to those who need it. https://www.wavesforwater.org/ The Foundational Philosophies of Uncle Ed's Damn Good Vodka are: * Be real, authentic, and transparent * Remain community-driven * Be mission-based * Focus on waste minimization across the supply chain * Live by intentional production * Work on ways to create more sustainable packaging * Aid clean water missions around the world * Create ultra-smooth tasting vodka At the Wonderfront Festival, Uncle Ed's Damn Good Vodka did more than lend their name as a sponsor. They had an entire village area set up at the Embarcadero Park North, which reflected the sensibilities of the brand with vodka tastings, music, games, and more. https://wonderfrontfestival.com/embarcadero-north/ https://youtu.be/L7mOeKL_Sjw When Digital Hospitality host Shawn Walchef learned the story of Ed and Walt and how they teamed up to create a brand they cared about, he was touched. "For me as a small business owner, I was touched to know that two brothers who are a yin and a yang to each other somehow pulled off this brand," Shawn Walchef said. Uncle Ed's Damn Good Vodka is about family, Walt said. "The most successful brands, not just in alcohol, are small, family based, true authentic stories." "When Ed left our distillery in Boise to move to the big island to fulfill his dream, it was really kind of defining moment of 'what do we do, where is our business going to go?' Walt said. "I just saw Ed live his passion." Ed said the company is still striving to make steps toward being even more environmentally responsible, reducing their carbon footprint, and making more purpose-driven business decisions. "We just got done finding a biodegradable plastic shrink-wrap that goes around the pallets when we ship them off," Ed said. "It's not a perfect solution, but it's constantly moving forward. It's a bunch of small steps." "You don't just flip a switch and all of a sudden, 'OK I've done everything I can do. I saved the world.' It's a journey and it continues." It's about the mission of the brand, which when it's a core fundamental of the business, will always be there.

The talent in the studio doubles as brothers Arie and Randall Cole join the Drinking Partners in their latest release. DJ Arie and photographer Redd Vision stop by to converse on how they create and inspire, but also speak on how they research and improve their crafts. A unique flow develops that emphasizes and examines both men’s strengths, from Redd Vision’s “sniper” photography, which often includes candid images from surprising angles and DJ Arie Cole’s song choices that reflect and revolve around his crowds. When Ed delves deeper into Arie’s choices, he wonders if he is giving away the DJ’s “money moves” and admits his past as a college deejay. Listen in as the conversation shifts to an exploration of family dynamics and how Arie and Randall combine their passions. The closing minutes focus on how to progress and build, which sometimes involves learning a new approach or subject, according to the Cole brothers. The latest Drinking Partners podcast offers an inspirational and dynamic look into photography and music. Check out Redd Vision and DJ Arie Cole in and around Pittsburgh and on social media.
Hello! When Ed makes a promise, he makes a promise! It might take 6 years to deliver, but now we get to share the discussion with you. What does that all mean? Well, Ed met Architect Christophe Egret while on holiday and needed to finish the conversation they had about the transformative power of public space. He joins us, as does author and academic, Anna Minton, and CEO for the Project for Public Spaces in the US, Phil Myrick, to warn of the dangerous creep of pseudo-public space and what a really well thought out urban space can do to bring together a community.ANDComedian Heidi Regan rewards reading of tedious important governmental documents, unifying all accents to either Southern Belle or Scottish and monochrome tunics for all.

Day wore his special political socks and Ed wishes that he would have at least worn a vest as the Drinking Partners welcome Summer Lee – the Democratic nominee for the 34th Pennsylvania State House District – and Sara Innamorato – the Democratic nominee for the 21st Pennsylvania State House District. What follows is an in-depth analysis of the shifting politics of Western Pennsylvania and the nation as a whole. Ms. Lee speaks on her concept of people-centered politics, which she deems “common sense policies,” that focus on education, healthcare, and a fair living wage. Ms. Innamorato shares her approach, which supports progressive policies that promote a “dignified life.” When Ed asks if passion or savvy will garner the most change in Harrisburg, Ms. Innamorato and Ms. Lee answer in unison: “Both.” It is this combination of knowledge and dedication that listeners will hear throughout the interview. Even with such important women as guests, the Drinking Partners add light laughs and their own spins to the heavy banter.

I am so excited to have Ed Tandy McGlasson on Thriving Beyond Belief today! We talk about Ed's namesake and about what he placed his identity in as a male in western culture. After a football injury, Ed questioned his identity. When Ed experienced a spiritual healing after a spiritual conversation, his journey with the Lord began. He was overwhelmed with the Gospel and how it radically changes lives. What occurred then was a journey with the Lord that leads to his ministry today. Ed wrote the book that we focus mainly on today, "The Difference A Father Makes", and has spent his life talking with others about what the lack of a Godly father can do in your life, but how the Lord coming into your life can give you a holy identity and an eternal purpose. He also leads Blessing of the Father Ministries. He broke the cycle of the lack of fatherly wisdom after he accepted the Lord by blessing his daughter's lives through pointing them back to Jesus. Ed describes that the words spoken over young men by their fathers shape how those young men see themselves. Those young men grow up and have children and try to find their identity in fatherhood, which drives their sons to performance because of that pressure put on them. This then leads into a unhealthy cycle of hurt boys becoming hurt men. We talk about how at the root of each of us is the question if we are seen and loved, and how parents can show that love and how the Lord also sees and loves each of us unconditionally. Ed speaks to those that have never had a Godly example in their lives, are divorced, or have a hard relationship with their father and gives wisdom and hope through scripture for who these people are in Christ. "The Lord chooses us so that He can adopt us as sons and daughters." We also speak on the importance of fathers in the lives of their daughters. Ed encourages us women to not let our identity lie in who our father or husband is. We were created to thrive! But too often we seek our identity in other things when we don't have an example of a Godly father. We must fully put who we are in our Heavenly Father. When we see Jesus as "enough", we will then teach our children that Jesus is enough for them as well. This is an episode for everyone, and a topic I know is important in our society today. Please listen and be refreshed and encouraged.
What You'll Hear: Ed became a Christian at age 9. His Mom took him to an 8 day revival service. He went forward on the last night. God saved him at 9 so he wouldn't have to go through his whole life without Jesus like his father did. His father didn't become a Christian until he was 55. He was always there but didn't see a need for Christ in his life. Ed graduated from Clemson University and worked for Owens Corning. He found he liked the customer relationships and went into sales and a lot of travel. He wanted less travel so went to work as a plant engineer for the Certainty Corporation, then got promoted into management, then went back into sales and then marketing, always prospering. After 25 years, he went to work for an engineering consulting firm. 3 years ago, he retired from that but has continued to work on a contractual basis. In 1993, Ed and his wife were living in Kansas City and were invited to a dinner where they learned about Gideons and they accepted an invitation to join. We believe God can use those Bibles put in the pathways of life. In 2015 while in Indonesia, an 85% Muslim country, they distributed 121,000 copies of God's word in a 5 day period. On Saturday morning, they went to an old Buddhist Temple. 5 young ladies who were Muslim came up to him and asked if they could interview him and he witnessed to them. When Ed got involved with Promise Keepers blacks and whites joined together and God used that to open his eyes that we need to be more diverse "We tend to surround ourselves with people that are just like us but that's not how we're going to grow" Randolph Christian Men is the hub with other ministries serving as spokes. The local Crisis Pregnancy Center has men being mentored on how to become fathers Christians United Outreach Center (CUOC) and Our Daily Bread (soup kitchen) help the community The key to a good marriage is commitment. Marriage is not 50/50, it's more like 100/100. A strand of 3 is not easily broken. We were always committed to serving the Lord. "God has been the glue that has kept us together through these 50 years." Work life balance is how do you set your priorities. There are seasons in your life when you have to work a lot and there are other seasons where you choose to work a lot. Those are unique times, I don't want that to be my norm. I also have to have that quality time with my wife, with my family, with my friends. Sometimes you need to give up some income to have a better life, and that life is with Jesus Christ and your family. The one thing we misunderstand as men is that we value our work as who we are. That is not who we are. In Jesus Christ, we're a sinner saved by grace. Often our ego, especially as a man, is that job that we have. Ed worked with a young sales manager once who was kind of brash and needed to mature. One of Ed's Christian brothers asked Ed if he was praying for him. "I started praying for this young man, and God changed me...about 4 years later he called me and said 'Ed I need you to pray for me, I have cancer'" Once, a bid was due in to a major prospect for a $5 million potential contract. After they turned in their bid, they got more info and realized they could have turned in a lower number. They could not change their bid because Ed was honest and said they got new info. They later secured another portion of business and Ed thinks it was because God allowed him to maintain good integrity. The first thing to do in a workplace to share the Gospel is to be yourself If you're walking with the Lord, He opens up opportunities, that divine encounter. It's not something you can force. Ed's life verse is Ephesians 2:10 "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them". This became clear to Ed 3 years ago when Ed was not nominated to a leadership position with the Gideons he knew he would have been good at, but later was nominated to be the state Chaplain instead, something he wasn't comfortable with but after a conversation with God he accepted it and has been challenged and blessed by it. We have to re-surrender to God every day and let Him have His way. I think that's what we all need to do. Contact Ed at C-336-302-7401 or email edk900@gmail.com

This week on the Ed Mylett Show Ed gets interviewed! When Ed was first approached to work for WFG he was working in a group home helping boys that had come from extremely difficult situations. He knew at this point that serving others was his calling. While he did not think working in the financial industry seemed to be something he would be passionate about, when he realized that his love for service was also a huge part of the WFG culture. Get inspired and learn about another side of Ed Mylett this week!

For complete show notes, visit: http://becomingthealphamuslim.com/meta-learning I know what you're thinking: What the hell does learning math have to do with Becoming the Alpha Muslim? I'll tell you what. The Islamic Sacred Tradition is one of deep learning and transmission, so much so that entire books were written on the art of learning. More recently, the subject of meta-learning has become popular due to bloggers like Tim Ferriss, Cal Newport, and Scott H. Young. I don't know any of these guys, but I do know someone who I believe is somewhat of an authority on the subject. My guest this episode is Ed Latimore. Ed is a professional heavyweight boxer, physicist, published author, and self-improvement blogger. I invited him on to teach us how to learn math and, more broadly, speak about the subject of meta-learning. Ed is in an interesting position to speak about this subject because he entered university at the not-quite-old but certainly not young age of 28. As well, he gets punched in the head for a living. Both of these factors combined mean Ed had to take a deliberate and systematic approach to learning. One that he can now pass on to us. Enjoy. Show Notes [2:20] Ed's life circumstances necessitated that he learn HOW to learn so he can be successful at university and this had the added benefit of making him a good teacher [3:12] We live in an age where information is free. Because of this, the ability to process information soundly and efficiently has become priceless [4:25] Has entering university at 28 (as opposed to 18) and getting punched in the head for a living affected Ed's ability to learn? [5:30] When you are older, the tools you have available to learn are different than when you are younger, for example Young people don't have the concept of limitation, which is a plus, while adults have a better idea of what's possible Young people don't have the concept of failure, while adults understand that failure is not the be-all-end-all Young people learn as a matter of immersion, while adults know how to learn [9:35] As an adult you understand that the process of learning gets results no matter your natural aptitude. As long as you apply yourself over time, you will get better [13:30] How much does natural ability affect learning math? Yes, a high IQ helps, but does that mean you can't achieve a level of success? The world is not only composed of high IQ people. [17:00] Whether talent is real or not is irrelevant. What matters is whether you are using your belief in it to motivate yourself or to justify your weakness and lack of trying [17:39] If we take Goku and Vegeta as an example, Vegeta doesn't just accept that Goku is better than him and quit. He has an intrinsic belief in himself, as a pureblood Saiyan, that pushes him to train harder and harder and reach new heights [19:50] Walk around with the confidence Vegeta had when he let Cell absorb Android 18. That's the lie you must tell yourself about talent [21:00] When Ed decided to go back to school he knew that even though he was weak at math, given enough time, he could learn anything. So he started learning almost a year out. In having this mindset you learn the most valuable talent to have is hard work [22:50] Because had to learn these subjects the hard way, he is more proficient at teaching it than many high school teachers. The guy who doesn't have the most natural talent is always the best coach [25:20] Why should you study math? It's because math is just a series of relationships. If you can learn to think in terms of these abstract relationships, you can apply this skill to almost every aspect of your life [28:50] If you've watched A Beautiful Mind, the Nash Equilibrium was discovered because of Game, and trying to pick up girls (yes, I'm aware this is a fictionalized account). There's a reason the most high-paying careers have a math component [29:57] You don't lift weights because you regularly encounter barbell- and dumbbell-shaped objects you need to pick up and move around. You lift them because they make all the physical activity in your life much easier. Mathematics is weight-lifting for your brain [31:40] When you first start learning, you start by learning tactically and solving as many problems as possible until it becomes mechanical. Eventually, the problems will become harder and they won't be straightforward to solve. Then you have to move from HOW to WHY, and this is where you gain a deeper understanding of the subject matter [36:10] Your final aim should be, "how can I understand this well enough to explain it to someone without using mathematical terminology?" [38:30] Bruce Lee said, "the three stages of learning are: A punch is just a punch A punch is no longer just a punch A punch is just a punch" [40:00] Ed's studies directly help him in his day-to-day life. For example, learning math affects the way he operates on Twitter because he understands network effects. Learning physics makes him a much better boxer [45:30] Understanding momentum, power, impulse, and how they apply to boxing [50:00] Why should never use AP math credits in university, especially if you are in a technical major [54:30] Understanding math helps you become more analytical in everyday life situations and puts some finesse in your game, so you can save time and energy [56:30] Ed has increased his proficiency in mathematics to a point where he sees his limitations. While he would certainly like to take his understanding to the next level, he will likely only achieve this if he pursues graduate education in mathematics. You don't know how far you can be pushed until you need to be pushed that far [58:05] To go further than undergraduate-level math proficiency, the key is more immersion. Once you have improved to one plateau there is no reason you can't improve to a higher one. Your only limitations are time and effort (not talent). Your growth will become logarithmic (i.e. diminishing returns) [1:01:30] I tell Ed about the North-African tradition of learning; writing on wooden tablets, memorizing didactic poetry, and teaching what they learn (even to a tree or an animal) [1:03:30] The ability to learn instills self-confidence. "I did this difficult thing...what else can I do?" For Ed, getting through the Physics program means he can do anything he puts his mind to [1:08:00] At the very least, learning math gives you the ability to see relationships and make connections between seemingly unrelated topics and aspects of life. It also makes you a more interesting or fun person [1:09:10] Ed recommends The Art of Learning by Josh Waitzkin and A Mind for Numbers by Barbara Oakley [1:10:35] Nabeel recommends A Mathematician's Lament by Paul Lockhart and A Mathematicians Apology by G.H. Harvey [1:13:15] Ed's book, Not Caring What Other People Think is a Superpower, is available on Kindle and Paperback
Join Jeanne Catherine Gray as she is joined again by Officers Ed Lemon and Jerry Williams. When Ed and Jerry were on the show a few months ago, we knew that this conversation could keep going. Both Ed and Jerry are interested in the impact that understanding the mind has on the work of police and others in criminal justice. In this show we will explore separate realities and what it has to do with profiling and policing.Ed Lemon is currently a Sergeant with the St Paul Police Department assigned to the Training Unit. He has been a police officer since 1981 and was previously employed in the cities of Boynton Beach, FL and Ft Lauderdale, FL. Among his other duties, he has written and administered grants dealing with high risk youth and their parents. These programs were directed at instructing Correction Workers, Teachers, Police, Counselors, and Social Service Providers in a 3 Principle-based approach to connecting with High Risk Youth and their families while lowering the youth’s risk of continued substance abuse, violent acts and other continued criminal activity. Additionally, Ed has served in the capacity of a Beat Officer, Patrol Supervisor, Juvenile Investigator, Homicide Investigator, Domestic Violence Investigator, and the Police Department’s Director of the Employee Assistance Program.Jerry Williams has been a police officer for 33 years. His community policing work in Oakland, California led to crime declining to zero in a period of 18 months in the most dangerous neighborhood in the City of Oakland. Jerry trained with Roger Mills, one of the pioneers in the 3 Principles psychology. Jerry received the Peace Prize and was invited to the White House by Attorney General Janet Reno, who was impressed with the transformation in the communities of Coliseum Garden and Lockwood Garden. These two communities had been 4th in the nation for homicide and drugs.

Edward “Ed” Conard is the author of two top ten New York Times bestselling books: The Upside of Inequality: How Good Intentions Undermine the Middle Class and Unintended Consequences: Why Everything You’ve Been Told About the Economy Is Wrong (2012). Before Ed was the author he is today with top-selling books, he was just an average high school student who didn’t try hard at being a good academic. He went on to college, however, and earned a degree as an engineer because he was good at math. He went on to take a good job, but then was laid off. When Ed saw a friend got into a top-tier university he decided to apply and got in. He had a long run at a few great jobs, but he didn’t really stick with any of them. He even worked with Mitt Romney at Bank Capital… for free. You’ll have to hear this part of his story!! It is amazing. The numbers he was dealing with were absolutely mind-blowing. Ed became a partner in Bank Capital for specific reasons, one of which was his ability to close deals. But he was just a guy feeding his family in a way. It wasn’t the income that motivated him. You want to know what did? You’ll have to listen to this interesting episode of the Cash Flow Diary podcast. Learn more. LISTEN NOW.
