In this week's Market and Economic Wrap, Tumisho Grater, Multi-Manager Investment Analyst, explores the renewed uncertainty gripping global markets after President Trump proposed a flat 15% global tariff. The episode looks at how this shift is reshaping winners and losers across regions, why long‑standing US allies face the biggest squeeze, and what the mixed market reaction reveals about underlying tensions. Tumisho also unpacks the implications for South Africa, including potential export improvements and the importance of policy certainty, along with movements in the rand, commodities, inflation and key considerations ahead of the National Budget.

I sat down with Capitol Hill reporter Juliegrace Brufke to unpack the explosive allegations surrounding Rep. Tony Gonzalez and his reported relationship with a former district staffer, whose tragic death last year has sent shockwaves through Texas politics and beyond. We walk through the timeline of the affair, the emergence of explicit text messages, claims of coercion, the husband's response, and Gonzalez's shifting public defense, including allegations of blackmail. Beyond the personal tragedy, we also examine the political fallout, from calls for Gonzalez's resignation and the potential for an expulsion vote to the razor-thin House majority and what this scandal could mean for the upcoming Texas primary.Disclaimer: This episode contains graphic descriptions of sexual misconduct and self-harm.Follow Juliegrace Brufke on X/Twitter.Chapters00:00 - Intro and Disclaimer03:25 - The Tony Gonzales Case with Juliegrace Brufke07:16 - What We Know and Background14:51 - New Details of the Case and Gonzales', Local, and Congressional Responses28:59 - Sealed Files, Endorsements, and Other Fallout37:26 - Gonzales' Relationships in Congress and Blackmail Allegation Details41:53 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Most org design conversations get forced through a narrow funnel: prove the ROI, justify the spend, make the numbers work. But if work is something most people can't opt out of—and where we spend a huge chunk of our attention and waking lives—then “it pays off” feels like a painfully small standard. This week, Rodney and Sam explore the ethical case for organizational design. They move beyond spreadsheets and profit metrics to ask bigger questions about leadership, power, transparency, compensation, and the human impact of broken systems. What do organizations owe the people who work inside them? Is better workplace design a moral responsibility — not just a financial strategy? -------------------------------- Ready to change your organization? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Let's talk.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get our newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -------------------------------- Mentioned references: r/antiwork Mihaly Csikzentmihalyi and Flow Target CEO comp package (note: New CEO's comp package is roughly $16m, vs over $70m for the prior CEO in 2020) triple bottom line John Rawls and A Theory of Justice 00:00 Check-In: What's your energy like right now? 04:04 Divorcing doing what's “good work” from ROI 08:16 A “good” experience is the exception rather than the rule 10:06 Protecting yourself isn't “selling out” 15:41 Spending our attention on worthy things 21:35 Leadership vs. worker power disparity is broken 27:31 Ethically designed companies never are publicly traded 31:07 Principles and values of ethical orgs 40:35 Joy at work shouldn't be nickled and dimed 44:35 Idea 1: Don't accept performative change initiatives 47:17 Idea 2: Audit your existing principles and values 48:35 Idea 3: Don't let leadership gaslight you into conforming 50:33 Wrap up: Leave us a review and share the show with a friend Sound engineering and design by Taylor Marvin of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Coupe Studios⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Después del 14 de febrero, Roberto Belmont y Juan Manuel Torreblanca abordan la cara menos romántica del amor: las ataduras espirituales y los vínculos paranormales que se activan cuando una relación termina, cuando hay duelo no resuelto o cuando una pareja fue posesiva y violenta. Desde la parapsicología se describe el apego espiritual como un anclaje de conciencia o presencia que influye en la persona vinculada, a veces con pensamientos intrusivos, insomnio, parálisis del sueño y escaladas físicas que, según los testimonios, incluyen marcas, golpes, sensaciones de estrangulamiento y fenómenos observables por terceros. El episodio subraya una línea crítica: primero descartar causas clínicas y de salud mental, y solo después evaluar si hay manifestaciones externas verificables. Se repasan patrones históricos documentados en el siglo XX y un caso emblemático en Estados Unidos: Doris Bither, cuya experiencia habría inspirado elementos del cine paranormal. También se expone un caso contemporáneo donde el remanente del vínculo celoso persiste tras la muerte, afectando a una nueva relación. Cerramos con estrategias prácticas para cortar el bucle de obsesión y recuperar agencia: ocuparse, mover el cuerpo, cuidar la atención, y aprender a cerrar por dentro incluso cuando no hay un cierre con la otra persona. CHAPTERS / TIMESTAMPS 00:10 Advertencia de contenido y apertura del episodio 00:40 Amor y amistad, expectativas y desilusión en fechas “especiales” 02:04 Resignificar el 14 de febrero y por qué se vuelve una fecha pesada 03:14 Qué es una atadura espiritual y por qué es más común de lo que parece 04:53 Apego espiritual, influencia psíquica, pensamientos intrusivos y verificación por terceros 07:37 Salud mental vs. fenómeno externo: cuándo descartar primero lo clínico 09:14 Duelo, vulnerabilidad y cómo el recuerdo puede reforzar un vínculo atemporal 13:43 Consejos prácticos: ocuparse, caminar, moverse y cortar la rumiación 16:40 Caso Doris Bither: contexto, investigación y por qué el ciclo puede reforzarse 22:22 Síndrome del amante fantasma: patrones históricos, marcas, peso en la cama y escalada traumática 30:55 Humor vs. trauma: por qué estas experiencias no se cuentan con facilidad 33:16 Caso Holly: acoso tras la muerte de la expareja, celos, ataques y rupturas 38:16 Remanentes del vínculo: obsesión, violencia y el costo emocional de aferrarse 40:40 Cierres y desapego: cómo despedirse por dentro aunque no haya despedida “frontal” 43:20 Despedida y próximos contenidos FAQ ¿Qué es una atadura espiritual? Es un vínculo afectivo y psíquico persistente que, según testimonios, puede influir en la persona y escalar a intrusiones sensoriales o físicas. ¿Por qué se habla de “vínculo” y no solo de recuerdos? Porque la atención sostenida, la obsesión y el duelo no resuelto pueden alimentar un bucle emocional que se siente presente en el día a día. ¿Cómo distinguir depresión o ansiedad de un fenómeno externo? Primero se recomienda descartar causas clínicas; si hay efectos verificables por terceros o manifestaciones físicas no explicables, se evalúa el caso con más rigor. ¿Caminar y moverse realmente ayuda? Sí, porque reduce rumiación, regula emociones y corta el encierro conductual que suele intensificar el bucle de obsesión. ¿Se puede “cerrar” sin ver a la otra persona? Sí, el cierre efectivo es interno: despedirse por dentro y soltar el vínculo aunque la otra persona no participe. # What happens when a relationship ends but the bond behaves as if it never did? After Valentine's Day, Observador Paranormal examines spiritual attachments, paranormal relationship bonds, and the darker side of “forever” promises. The hosts describe how fixation, unresolved grief, and toxic dynamics can evolve into a sustained mental-emotional loop that feels present in waking life, sometimes escalating into reported sensory intrusions, sleep paralysis, bruises, scratches, choking sensations, and disturbances witnessed by partners or family members. They draw a clear boundary for responsible discussion: start with clinical screening and mental health support, then look for externally verifiable elements before labeling anything paranormal. The episode revisits the Doris Bither case and how investigator focus on the phenomenon can unintentionally reinforce the bond if the person's emotional loop remains intact. They also discuss 20th-century “Ghost Lover Syndrome” narratives and a contemporary case in which a deceased ex-partner's jealousy appears to sabotage a new relationship. The takeaway is practical and evergreen: reclaim attention, reduce rumination, move your body, rebuild routines, and practice internal closure even when the other person refuses to provide a clean ending. CHAPTERS / TIMESTAMPS 00:10 Content warning and episode opening 00:40 Love, friendship, expectations, and disappointment around “special dates” 02:04 Reframing Valentine's Day and why it can feel heavy 03:14 What a spiritual attachment is and why it may be more common than assumed 04:53 Attachments, intrusive thoughts, and why third-party verification matters 07:37 Mental health first: when to rule out clinical causes before paranormal claims 09:14 Grief, vulnerability, and how memory can reinforce an atemporal bond 13:43 Practical tools: stay occupied, walk, move, and interrupt rumination 16:40 The Doris Bither case: context, investigation, and how cycles can intensify 22:22 Ghost Lover Syndrome patterns: marks, bed pressure, and traumatic escalation 30:55 Humor vs. trauma: why people rarely talk about intense experiences 33:16 The Holly case: jealousy, attacks, and relationship sabotage after death 38:16 The residue of the bond: obsession, violence, and emotional cost 40:40 Closure and detachment: how to say goodbye internally without a final talk 43:20 Wrap-up and what's coming next FAQ What is a spiritual attachment? A persistent emotional-psychic bond people report as influencing thoughts, sleep, and sometimes physical or sensory experiences. Why focus on attention and rumination? Because sustained fixation can strengthen the emotional loop that keeps the bond feeling active. How do you separate mental health symptoms from a paranormal claim? Start with clinical evaluation and support; only then consider reports that include external corroboration. Why does walking or movement help? It disrupts rumination, regulates mood, and reduces isolation patterns that often intensify nighttime experiences. Can you get closure without speaking to the other person? Yes. Effective closure is internal: you detach inside, even if the other person won't cooperate. # Depois do Dia dos Namorados, o Observador Paranormal investiga o lado sombrio de vínculos afetivos que parecem continuar mesmo após uma separação ou morte. O episódio aborda apegos espirituais e vínculos paranormais que, segundo relatos, surgem quando há luto não elaborado, promessas de amor eterno, relações tóxicas marcadas por controle e ciúme, e um ciclo de atenção obsessiva que mantém o laço “vivo” na mente e no corpo. Os anfitriões descrevem sinais frequentemente associados a esses casos, como pensamentos intrusivos, paralisia do sono, pesadelos, sensação de peso na cama, marcas no corpo e episódios de agressão percebidos por testemunhas próximas. Ao mesmo tempo, reforçam um ponto essencial: primeiro investigar saúde mental, sono e fatores clínicos; só depois considerar ocorrências que tenham confirmação externa e consistência. O caso Doris Bither é revisitado como referência histórica de investigação, junto com relatos do século XX atribuídos à síndrome do amante fantasma. Na parte final, um caso contemporâneo mostra como o ciúme e o controle podem parecer persistir e sabotar uma nova relação. A proposta prática é clara: recuperar o foco, interromper a ruminação, criar movimento e rotina, e trabalhar o encerramento interno mesmo quando não existe um “fechamento” com a outra pessoa. FAQ O que é um apego espiritual? Um vínculo emocional e psíquico persistente que, segundo relatos, pode influenciar pensamentos, sono e experiências sensoriais. Por que a ruminação é tão importante nesses casos? Porque a fixação contínua pode manter o vínculo ativo e intensificar sintomas noturnos. Como diferenciar sintomas psicológicos de algo externo? Comece por avaliação clínica e suporte; depois considere relatos com confirmação de terceiros e consistência de sinais. Por que caminhar e se mover ajuda? Porque reduz ruminação, regula emoções e quebra o isolamento que costuma piorar o quadro. Dá para encerrar sem falar com a outra pessoa? Sim. O encerramento mais eficaz é interno: desapegar por dentro, mesmo sem participação do outro.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this week's episode of The Wrap, Chris Whalen analyzes the Blue Owl situation as part of a broader pattern in private credit. He argues that private credit firms purchasing insurance companies is "the fox getting into the hen house" since insurance assets are held at book value rather than marked to market, beyond easy regulator reach. Chris makes the case that public markets are superior due to transparency and liquidity, while private markets mainly benefit Wall Street through higher fees, and predicts roughly half of private equity managers will struggle to raise capital due to poor performance. From his Washington visit, Chris notes redistricting has left few genuinely competitive House seats, discusses a Supreme Court case on Voting Rights Act enforcement, and predicts 2028 will be Rahm Emanuel versus Marco Rubio. He explains Vice Chair Michelle Bowman's proposal to roll back Basel III mortgage restrictions that have discouraged bank housing finance for 15 years. On silver, Chris describes Chinese exchanges imposing trading limits due to supply constraints, commercial buyers sourcing from artisanal mines, and potential COMEX cash settlement, noting he continues adding to gold and silver positions despite volatility.Use the code TheWrap2026 for 25% off your first year of The Institutional Risk Analyst https://www.theinstitutionalriskanalyst.com/plans-pricingLinks:    The Institutional Risk Analyst: https://www.theinstitutionalriskanalyst.com/  Inflated book (2nd edition): https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/inflated-r-christopher-whalen/1146303673Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/rcwhalen    Website: https://www.rcwhalen.com/   Timestamps:0:00 Preview: The fox getting into the hen house 0:38 Welcome back — Blue Owl and the private credit blowup 1:23 Chris's reaction to Blue Owl restricting redemptions 3:19 Why this matters for retail investors and retirees 4:21 Two reasons this matters — volatility and annuity risk 5:59 How many people truly understand this risk? 6:47 It's not a headline issue until it becomes one 9:22 The Modigliani-Miller Theorem explained 11:12 Do you dabble in private markets at all? 12:18 How do you see this ultimately playing out? 13:05 Half of all PE managers will go out of business 15:12 Do you get pushback from the industry? 16:06 Moving to DC — upcoming midterms 16:45 The disconnect between media narrative and reality 18:22 Supreme Court case on Voting Rights Act 20:33 Base case for midterms — who takes the House? 22:42 Trump administration's communication problems 23:30 Bold call: Rahm Emanuel for Democratic nomination 2028 24:56 The case for Rahm Emanuel 27:09 Marco Rubio vs Rahm Emanuel prediction 28:23 Michelle Bowman's significant speech on Basel III 30:07 How Basel III distorted the mortgage market for 15 years 32:15 What's going on in silver specifically? 34:55 The silver squeeze — producers going to artisanal mines 36:01 Still long gold and silver, adding positions 37:01 What Chris is watching next week

I'm back with another fortnightly In My Opinion episode - sharing running observations, Q&A and personal updates. Train with Matt: https://sweatelitecoaching.com/matt-fox/ Private Podcast Feed + Discord: https://www.sweatelite.co/shareholders/ Contact: matt@sweatelite.co Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattinglisfox/ Strava Training Log: https://www.strava.com/athletes/6248359 I wished friends luck at Osaka and Tokyo and spoke about returning to YouTube to document a marathon comeback despite not running yet and feeling imposter syndrome. I explained why I moved away from pro-athlete travel content - doping concerns, COVID restrictions, visa limits and tax complications. The channel is shifting toward my own journey. On training, I addressed the effort vs pace debate. Context matters. Effort leads, especially when fatigued. I spoke about avoiding the anxiety spiral by focusing on sensation and adaptation rather than numbers and judgment. I touched on influencer culture, unnecessary products, and doping speculation - urging caution without proof. I discussed coaching as an optional performance tool, like super shoes, and may use a coach in an advisor role. I'll likely train mostly in standard shoes and race in super shoes. Current context: I'm around 79 kg and believe 65-66 kg aligns with a 2:12-2:15 goal. I reflected on running 2:20 off ~105 km per week in 2021. I'm considering cycling and stair climbing to maintain fitness while reducing impact and avoiding ego-driven mileage. I also covered my 10-year Japan ban, alcohol vs cannabis culture, pre-race nerves, speed after 40, Australia's social media ban for under-16s, and moving Workouts of the Week into a paid Supporters Club to build a healthier community. Closed with plans for stairs, weights and a cold plunge.

What's up everyone and welcome to The Corporate Bartender!If you've been hanging around this bar for a while, you know this has never just been a podcast — it's been a room. A room where HR nerds, L&D folks, consultants, and people leaders, pull up a stool and actually talk about what's going on at work.And today? We're officially kicking off the TCB relaunch!Year Six. New energy. Same soul.We break down what's changing — a more intentional cadence, thoughtfully curated Guest Bartenders, a clearer focus on high-signal conversations — and what is absolutely not changing: the Crew, the candor, and the community-first vibe.We even wrote a TCB Crew Charter. That's right. We put the vibe in writing.And then we opened it up to the room.The conversation was honest, funny, thoughtful — and a really strong reminder that leadership is getting more complex, and nobody wants to figure it out alone.Oh, and don't worry — Last Call is alive and well. The internet still gets weird, the humans still get good, and the cocktails still get…distributed.Let's GO!TCB Layout:0:00 - Show Open & Intro1:14 - Titles1:47 - Kickoff 8:23 - Agenda11:13 - What's Changing/Not Changing24:32 - Crew Conversation57:28 - Wrap & CloseEvent Mentioned: https://rmps.starchapter.com/meetinginfo.php?id=29&ts=1760057155Event Mentioned: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/disrupthr-denver-190-tickets-1980129360220Join our community!https://the-corporate-bartender.mn.co/Theme Music by Hooksounds.comGood Feels Stories Copyright Paramount/CBS

President Trump says he will decide within 10 to 15 days whether to continue diplomatic efforts with Iran or authorize military action. On paper, talks in Geneva have been described as “positive.” In practice, the military posture tells a more urgent story. Significant naval assets are in place, including carrier strike groups positioned to project air power quickly.What stands out is the operational framing. The buildup appears geared toward air and naval strikes, not large-scale ground deployments. Bombs in, not boots in. That distinction matters politically and strategically. A rapid, targeted operation is easier to message and easier to contain. A prolonged engagement is not.I have no inside knowledge of what comes next. But the reporting suggests that every preparatory step short of execution has been taken. That does not guarantee action. It does mean the window for decision is real. If a strike happens, the political fallout will depend almost entirely on duration. Days are one thing. Weeks are another.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication.

Andrew Montbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office and later released. The scrutiny centers not on lurid allegations alone, but on claims that confidential trade documents may have been shared with Jeffrey Epstein during Andrew's tenure as a trade envoy.That is the pattern emerging from the latest tranche of disclosures. The most actionable material involves documents, authority, and institutional misuse, not the more speculative narratives that dominate online conversation. Trade secrets and official privilege are prosecutable. Rumor is not.If these allegations hold, the implications extend beyond Andrew personally. They could destabilize broader political relationships in the United Kingdom and intensify scrutiny of other high-profile Epstein associates. The sensational headlines grab attention, but it is the paper trail that moves prosecutors.DHS Funding and Pre–State of the Union BrinkmanshipBack home, the Department of Homeland Security funding fight remains stalled. Democrats are demanding immigration enforcement reforms, including stricter warrant requirements, ending certain patrol practices, and unmasking field agents. Republicans have labeled those proposals red lines and accuse Democrats of leveraging the shutdown for political positioning ahead of the State of the Union.Nothing substantive is likely to move before the president addresses Congress. The incentives run the other way. Democrats want to be seen as fighting. Republicans want to frame the impasse as obstruction. In the meantime, DHS operates in partial shutdown conditions, with essential personnel continuing work but long-term uncertainty hanging over the department.The broader dynamic is familiar. Shutdowns are blunt instruments. They energize bases but rarely deliver maximal outcomes. Eventually, one side cuts a deal and angers its most committed supporters. The only open question is who blinks first and how much rhetorical damage accumulates before they do.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:11 - Dave Levinthal on Dems' Midterm Fundraising00:27:24 - Update00:29:00 - Iran00:33:30 - Former Prince Andrew Arrested00:35:10 - DHS Funding Talks00:38:20 - Karol Markowicz on Republican Vibes01:21:35 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Senior Tech Editor Josh Ross has spent the last month living with the 5th generation Cannondale SuperSix EVO, and he's come to a blunt conclusion: either he's jaded, or the flagship "superbike" just isn't that exciting. While the marketing suggests this is a category-defining machine, Josh explains why at $10,000 for the Hi-Mod (and more for the Lab71), the SuperSix has essentially become a clone of the Specialized Tarmac SL8 without actually hitting the same high marks. The crew discusses the "Tarmac-ification" of the all-around race bike and why the real winner of this launch is actually the $3,000 mechanical 105 build at the bottom of the range. The SuperSix launch is just the start of the episode. Mike Levy, Lisa Charlerbois, and Josh dive into the polarizing news of the upcoming Lance Armstrong movie starring Austin Butler. Does another big-screen biopic help or hurt the sport's image? The crew also tackles your listener questions, including the rise of Chinese wireless drivetrains, Mike's story of being chased through the dark by a "squadron" of squirrels, and whether radar is actually ruining the purity of the ride. Finally, Josh doubles down on the take that set the Velo comments section on fire: Hi-viz clothing is victim blaming. He explains why he's rejecting the "common sense" argument and why we need to stop shifting the burden of safety onto cyclists. 00:00 – Welcome to the show  01:53 – The Austin Butler/Lance Armstrong Movie Debate  08:17 – Listener Q&A  30:58 – Trek Check-Out Long Term: Ditching the "Dorky" Rack  36:07 – SuperSix EVO Gen 5: What Actually Changed, how the Lab71 compares to the Tarmac SL8 and Cervélo S5, and why the 105 mechanical build is what you be buying 50:13 – Wrap up and a tease about the Garmin 1050 and how it's possible the company made a mistake

Sarah Curry returns to the studio to break down the K–12 budget process and why school spending decisions matter for property taxes—especially because, in most places, schools make up the largest share of the property tax bill. The core premise is simple: if “spending drives taxes” is true for cities and counties, it's true for school districts too, and taxpayers deserve to understand what local boards control versus what they don't.They challenge the common talking point that “schools can't control budgets” because the state sets the funding formula. Sarah argues that while Iowa's state funding system is real, it doesn't eliminate local discretion. Districts still make years of cumulative decisions on staffing levels, compensation strategy, programming, and priorities. Instead of treating “more dollars” as the primary measure of success, she pushes boards to ask whether spending actually improves outcomes—especially reading proficiency and core academic performance.The conversation also digs into why budget stress is spiking now. COVID-era federal money provided a temporary cushion, and Iowa's budget guarantee helped soften the impact of declining enrollment by holding districts harmless for a period. But there's a catch: budget guarantee is funded by property taxes, and when boards adopt the needed resolution, it becomes a local decision that can raise property taxes regardless of whatever the legislature sets for statewide growth.They close with what's on the March ballot: only 12 school districts have measures this cycle, mostly Physical Plant & Equipment Levy (PPEL) questions and Revenue Purpose Statements tied to SAVE (the one-cent sales tax for school infrastructure). With typically low turnout in March elections, they encourage voters to pay attention—because these ballot questions can shape local tax bills and spending commitments for years.00:00 — Intro + Sarah Curry back in studio01:48 — Trivia detour: Iowa county history05:05 — Why school budgets matter for property taxes07:02 — The myth: “schools can't control budgets”09:23 — Programs vs. outcomes: how to judge spending (ROI lens)13:46 — Iowa per-pupil spending vs. national + Mississippi reading example18:02 — Where districts still have flexibility (pay, staffing, programs)21:16 — Declining enrollment + why the squeeze hits “all at once”22:21 — Budget Guarantee explained + why it's a property-tax issue30:03 — March ballot preview: PEPL, SAVE, Revenue Purpose Statements36:09 — Wrap-up: school finance toolkit + what's next

Join us as Chris gets brutally honest about tech employment in the AI era: what's dying, what's thriving, and how to position yourself to survive the chaos. Chris walks through the current state of tech layoffs hitting record numbers while companies post record profits, the disappearance of entry-level roles, and practical strategies for navigating this unprecedented moment. You'll learn about skill development in the AI era, why fundamentals still matter more than hype, how to build resilience through community, and what hiring managers are actually looking for right now. This episode doesn't sugarcoat the challenges from hollowed-out expertise at major companies to early-career professionals wondering if their degree still matters, but it also provides actionable guidance on positioning yourself and why humor and human connection remain irreplaceable in an AI-driven world.
