    AI is getting better at sounding human. Better at conversation. Better at reassurance. Better at knowing exactly what we want to hear. So what happens when our kids start building relationships with machines designed to remove friction? In this conversation, Dr. Becky talks with former Wall Street Journal tech columnist Joanna Stern about AI toys, chatbot companions, creativity, learning, and the surprising role frustration plays in healthy human development. Together, they explore why “helpful” technology can potentially short-circuit the skills kids most need to build: patience, resilience, independent thinking, and real connection. Joanna also shares what happened when she spent time building a relationship with an AI chatbot herself... and why it left her more concerned about kids and companion bots than ever before. * From the newborn days to the teen years, Good Inside now supports parents through every stage of childhood — with practical guidance for the moments that matter most.

    What separates companies that thrive from those that slowly lose relevance? Often, it comes down to strategy - not just having a plan, but developing the insight and discipline to make better decisions over time. In this episode of Behind The Numbers With Dave Bookbinder, Dave speaks with strategy expert Rich Horwath, founder of the Strategic Thinking Institute, about what it really means to “be strategic” in today's business environment. Rich explains why strategy is not the same as goals, planning, or tactics, and shares his definition of strategy as “possessing insight that leads to advantage.” The conversation explores the biggest reasons strategy breaks down inside organizations, how leaders get trapped in tactical thinking, and the warning signs that indicate a company may be operating without true strategic direction. Rich also introduces his framework built around acumen, allocation, and action - and explains how leaders can apply it to improve decision-making and long-term performance. Dave and Rich discuss the connection between strategic clarity and enterprise value, the role of tradeoffs in leadership, lessons from companies like Blockbuster, and how AI may accelerate both opportunity and competitive risk. Rich also shares practical habits leaders can implement immediately, including insight journaling, accountability around learning, and creating a shared language of strategy across the organization.

    AI Is Coming for the Measurers, Not the Builders

    What jobs will AI replace, and which ones will become more valuable?Matthew Prince, co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare, recently wrote an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal about how he chose which employees to replace with AI. His argument: AI is not coming equally for every role. It's coming first for the people inside organizations who measure, report, analyze, audit, manage, and process information.In this solo episode of The TechEd Podcast, Matt Kirchner responds to Prince's article and examines what it reveals about the future of work. Drawing on Peter Drucker's framework of builders, sellers, and measurers, Matt breaks down why some jobs are likely to be heavily disrupted while others may become even more valuable.The uncomfortable truth: AI may reduce the need for many traditional middle management, finance, operations, and measurement-heavy roles. But it also increases the value of people who create products, build relationships, solve customer problems, lead change, and turn technology into business value.From sales and engineering to marketing, STEM education, data science, and applied AI, this episode explores where human talent still matters most, and what businesses, educators, and professionals need to do now to prepare for the next phase of workforce disruption.5 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Businesses need to start their AI journey now. AI is already changing how companies operate, compete, hire, and structure their teams. Organizations that have not assigned someone to understand how AI will disrupt their business, market, or institution are already behind.2. Measurers and mid-level managers will be disrupted the most. Roles centered on reporting, processing, auditing, analyzing, tracking, and managing information are increasingly vulnerable to AI. The opportunity is not to ignore that disruption, but to become the person who knows how to use AI to do that work better, faster, and more strategically.3. Personal relationships become more important in the AI age, not less. AI can automate parts of sales, marketing, and customer engagement, but it cannot earn trust the way people do. Sellers who understand customer needs, build relationships, solve problems, and use data intelligently will remain critical to business growth.4. Creativity and leadership still rule the day. AI gives more people access to the same tools, but it does not replace the ability to see opportunity, connect ideas, build a brand, lead change, or execute a vision. In marketing, business leadership, product strategy, and innovation, creative and decisive people will continue to create value.5. The future belongs to builders. Engineers, skilled tradespeople, manufacturing talent, STEM professionals, automation specialists, and applied AI practitioners are positioned to become even more important. If AI makes builders more productive, companies will need more of them, not fewer, especially in fields tied to physical AI, robotics, smart manufacturing, autonomous systems, drones, and the edge-to-cloud continuumResources in this Episode:Read Matthew Prince's op-ed in the Wall Street Journal: "How I Choose Which Cloudflare Employees to Replace With AI"Episode page: https://techedpodcast.com/cloudflare/We want to hear from you!

    Anti-establishment candidate Graham Platner seemingly came out of nowhere to become the presumptive Democratic nominee for the Senate seat in Maine. But his campaign has been dogged by controversies. There were the old, deleted Reddit posts in which he made racist comments and blamed sexual assault on victims. There was a now-covered tattoo resembling a Nazi symbol. And most recently, the Wall Street Journal reported that Platner exchanged sexually explicit messages with multiple women early in his marriage.Taken together, they raise a big question. Does he have too much baggage to carry on? Or can his anti-establishment political message — that has generated SO much enthusiasm among the democratic base — carry him through?In this episode of NPR's Newsmakers, Platner addresses earlier controversies, the failures of his own party and calls Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth “insecure.” Platner says he aspires to a version of masculinity different from the one embodied by Hegseth. “This idea that you're supposed to use your strengths to use power over other people or to offend people, be mean to people — that somehow that's manly. That's not masculinity,” he says. “That's the act of a coward.”Platner sat down with host Leila Fadel before news broke of the explicit sexual messages.NPR's Newsmakers is where you'll find NPR's biggest interviews.

    Most DIY investors spend their energy optimizing investments. The wealthiest investors optimize systems. According to Vanguard, a great advisor can add roughly 3% to your portfolio -- not by picking better stocks, but by keeping you from wrecking what you already have and by making the boring structural decisions most people skip. Joe and OG walk through the return boosters that actually move the needle, none of which involve a single exotic investment. OG and Anna follow up with the retirement withdrawal sequence that turns a good tax strategy into a great one.What You'll Walk Away WithWhy staying invested is the single highest-return move available to most investors -- and the Wall Street Journal archive experiment that proves it better than any chartHow news addiction creates the three portfolio killers: panic selling, market timing, and the constant feeling that today is the day to make a moveWhy your investment policy statement is a shock absorber between your emotions and your account -- and why advisors often beat DIY investors not by picking better funds but by being harder to reach on bad daysAsset location: the quiet return booster that moves money into the right tax shelter without changing a single investmentWhy tax loss harvesting is widely marketed to the wrong people -- and who actually has a strong use case for itSocial Security timing as a portfolio decision: why "I don't have to decide today" is sometimes the most financially sophisticated answer availableThe sequence of return risk trap that turns retirement into a constant anxiety loop -- and the simple margin of safety that makes it irrelevantThe lightning round: concentrated stock, leverage, crypto yield products, options trading, rebalancing, and tax efficiency -- return or trouble?OG and Anna on the distribution ladder: how to sequence withdrawals from pre-tax, brokerage, and Roth accounts to minimize taxes in retirementWhat IRMAA is, why it shows up two years after the decision that caused it, and why Roth conversions need to happen in November -- not MarchWhy This Matters NowIf you've been dollar-cost averaging into index funds and calling it a day, this episode is the next conversation. The gap between a well-built system and a random pile of investments isn't measured in which funds you chose -- it's measured in taxes paid, sequence of returns survived, and whether you had a plan when everything felt uncertain.From the BasementJoe and OG dig into the return boosters that have nothing to do with picking better investments -- recorded while OG is already inside Hollywood Studios at 4 AM trying to figure out the Lightning Lane math. OG and Anna deliver episode four of their financial basics series with a full walkthrough of tax-efficient withdrawal sequencing, including the IRMAA trap, Roth conversion timing, and why the tax triangle you built in season one is the whole point.

Furthermore, The Journal found that Platner has an active account on Kik, a private-messaging app often used to arrange sexual encounters. Also on Saturday, The New York Times revealed that Gertner had disclosed this information to a senior aide who later left the campaign, and Platner had been sending explicit messages to up to 12 women.

    Kelly Myers has been on Divorce and Beyond twice before. Once to talk about Divorce Day One. Once to help listeners avoid the divorce hangover that follows too many people into their new life. This time, she comes back to share something she has never spoken about publicly: what the loss of her son Jack taught her about years of high-conflict co-parenting, and her hope that every parent still in the middle of it will find a way through differently. In June of 2024, Kelly lost her son Jack at the age of 23. In the year that followed, she found herself looking back at the years of high-conflict co-parenting that had defined her children's childhoods, and asking questions she could not stop asking. What role did the conflict play? What did her children carry because of it? What would she have done differently if she had known what she knows now? Kelly reached out and asked to have this conversation here, because she believes that what she learned at great cost is something other parents can still choose to learn a different way. This is one of the most generous conversations this show has ever had. Susan Guthrie and Kelly explore the real cost of co-parenting conflict on children, what it actually looks like to drop the rope after years of high-conflict engagement, how the ecosystem around a divorce often makes things worse, and what repair looks like when you still have years ahead to offer it. Covered in this episode: Why dropping the rope has to start with you, and why waiting for your co-parent to change first means waiting forever How the divorce ecosystem, including attorneys, family, and friends, can fan the flames of conflict without anyone asking what you actually want to protect What high-conflict co-parenting looks like through the eyes of the children living inside it, and why each child carries it differently How the BIFF communication method helped shift a years-long dynamic, and what that looked like in practice Why it is never too late to begin repair, and what choosing differently right now can mean for the moments still ahead Referenced Episodes from the Archive: Day One with a Divorce Coach: First Steps with Kelly Myers Avoiding the Divorce Hangover From the Start with Kelly Myers ______________________________________________________________________ This week's guest: Kelly Myers Kelly understands that divorce is one of life's most challenging transitions. She's a divorce and co-parenting coach, mediator, and communication specialist passionate about supporting individuals and families as they move through the complexities of divorce and co-parenting. She partners with clients to understand the divorce process, manage emotional and financial stress, and make strategic decisions throughout their divorce. Her work helps clients stay focused on what matters most while making choices that align with their long-term goals. Kelly specializes in supporting parents as they discover how to become strong co-parenting partners, even when the romantic relationship has ended. She helps parents see their relationship through a new lens-as partners in raising their children-guiding them to create respectful communication patterns and develop comprehensive, child-centered parenting plans that go far beyond custody schedules. Her approach centers on what children need emotionally and developmentally during this transition, while helping parents maintain a healthy family dynamic across two homes. In addition to her direct work with clients, Kelly loves mentoring other professionals. She serves as a co-trainer for the Co-Parenting Specialist® Training Program and provides professional development to divorce professionals seeking to use a more client-centered approach. Kelly's deepest commitment is to help families-both the ones she works with directly and those served by the professionals she trains-have less conflict, more cooperation, and real hope for their futures.

    Direct response ads are written to take the customer from Attention to Interest to Desire to Action in a single encounter.Direct marketers have a product or a service to sell. They don't have a brand to protect.This is why ROAS is the perfect analytical tool for them.ROAS is the acronym for Return On Ad Spend.In other words, it is the Return On Investment of your ad budget.You can:measure lead generation with ROAS.compare the effectiveness of media with ROAS.track sales attribution with ROAS.But you will never build a brand with ROAS.In fact, the measurement of ROAS will always – without exception – lead to the disintegration of your brand.Here's why:To produce an impressive result in a short period of time, your ad must contain a degree of urgency.Urgency is not sustainable, nor is it scalable.The longer you run urgent ads, the less well they work.ROAS always looks great on paper for about a year, sometimes even 18 months.But then the wheels fall off and you can never put those wheels back on again. Your brand will never be more than a shadow of its former self.Consider this:A successful Going Out of Business sale is simply a massive extraction of the stored value in a brand. This “stored value” is the reputation of the company and the trust of its customers.These are variables that determine the success of every Going Out of Business Sale:Has this company routinely advertised a Sale or offered a discount?How highly do people esteem this brand?How credible is the urgency contained in the ad copy?ROAS always leads to short-term thinking because ROAS rewards ads that extract the largest amount of stored value from the brand.Have you built a brand?Do people feel a connection to your brand?The day that you begin using ROAS to determine which ads work best, you will have launched a Going Out of Business Sale whether you intended to or not.Roy H.

    What happens to a deposit when the account holder dies — and why are banks so unprepared for the one moment they know is coming?In this episode of the One Vision Podcast, Theodora Lau sits down with Martha Underwood, Founder and CEO of Prismm and author of the new release: The Death of Deposits. Drawing on 25+ years across IBM, Silicon Valley, and BBVA Compass, Martha talks about the unspoken assumption in banking — that the user will always be there — and how that assumption is now colliding with the largest generational wealth transfer in history.Together, Theo and Martha unpack the retention illusion, why the beneficiary field is the richest unused lead list sitting inside every bank's core, and why deposit attrition at death is an infrastructure problem, not a marketing one. They dig into the operational reality, the cultural reality, and the human reality, and why AI's real job is orchestration under pressure (not more automation). A deeply human conversation about deposits, design, and what it really means to extend a banking relationship beyond a single account holder.

    Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to Sen. Susan Collins clashing with Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner over the Iraq War, the attempted swatting of Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett, New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham claiming Democrats don't need men's votes to win elections, and the unraveling of the Freedom 250 concert series on the National Mall.First, Jim and Greg break down the comments of Sen. Susan Collins and Democrat challenger Graham Platner after Platner accused Collins of voting to send him to die in Iraq. They applaud Collins for clearly correcting the record and welcome a Wall Street Journal column from the Purple Heart recipient whom Platner said he wished had died during the war.Next, they condemn the latest threat targeting a U.S. Supreme Court justice after Justice Amy Coney Barrett was the target of an attempted swatting - sending police to a home under false pretenses. Thankfully, police quickly recognized the hoax before it escalated. Jim and Greg also reflect on how political violence and intimidation have continued to worsen since the attempted assassination of Justice Brett Kavanaugh four years ago.Then, they react to comments from New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, who told Democrats that if enough Democrat women vote, they won't need support from men to win elections. Jim and Greg consider what Lujan Grisham is really saying here and the massive media double standard that comes with it.Finally, they cringe as the majority of artists withdraw from an already lackluster lineup of Freedom 250 concerts on the National Mall starting next month. Jim and Greg have some fun discussing some of the names that were on the schedule but note how this news is also a reflection of how divisive our nation is right now.Please visit out great sponsors:OneSkinFor a limited time, try OneSkin with 15% off using code 3ML at https://oneskin.co/3MLPocket HoseFor a limited time, get two free gifts—a 360° rotating pocket pivot and a thumb drive nozzle—when you buy the Pocket Hose Ballistic; just text MARTINI to 64000, message and data rates may apply.New episodes every weekday.
