Anyways, today is Tuesday, November the 10th, of 2026, and we are broadcasting from the Safety FM studios in Orlando, Florida, and coming across the multiverse known as Safety FM. And then we are hanging out with our friends and colleagues over there.
Speaker I [00:02:44]:
Freeform radio never sounded this great, or has it? Radio Big.
Speaker H [00:02:49]:
Yep. A little freeform radio as we are doing our thing on this lovely Tuesday. So anyways, how's the last 24 hours or so been for you? Have you been excited? Is things going, uh, in the way that you would like them to go? I mean, that's always the question. I'm always kind of trying to figure it out in regards to the things that are happening. So there you go. So what do you think? A lot of stuff, a lot of things. Uh, have you been watching the news cycle? Because that always seems to be a thing to do, and you can kind of get into that weird, uh, Petra of stuff. Uh, in regards of everything that's going on inside of that world. So with that being said, let's talk a little bit about what the hell we do around here, because that might be important for us to kind of get down the path here. Our show consists of safety and the news, news and safety. That's just kind of what we do. That is our thing. Um, what we do, we bring in some professional broadcasters, they start talking right away about some of the things that are going on inside of the world of the multiverse, and then we just kind of go down the path. It's a simple path. It's In regards to it. We give you all the main news stories. I give you a level of a main story towards the middle. And then if you want to interact with the show, it's a simple process on doing so. All you have to do is go to callinradio.com. That's callinradio.com. Once you get there, we're going to get audio, video, and text messaging are going to be the options that are going to pop up. And then you're going to make a decision from there on what the hell you want to do. That's it. Whole kit and caboodle there. I get a little prompt on the screen that I kind of know on where you're guiding. And then I go, okay, let's do it. Let's do it. And then we kind of move forward. That's it. Simple process. So with that being said, here's the gig for today. I have my friends from Feature Story News waiting in the wings. They want to talk about what the hell's going on inside of the news cycle. I want to know what exactly is going on in the news cycle. I'm going to tell you, most of the times I hear this stuff exactly at the same time that you do. Not a joke as I say that. So let's go ahead and get into the news.
Speaker F [00:04:46]:
Here is the news on the Radio Car Safety Show.
Speaker J [00:04:49]:
From Feature Story News in New Delhi, I'm Neha Poonia. US President Donald Trump has confirmed that the FBI is investigating Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang over his relationship with a woman American intelligence agencies say is a Chinese spy, with the president saying he believes Huang had no knowledge of the woman's alleged espionage activities. Nvidia's board has launched its own investigation, even as China has dismissed the espionage allegations as unsubstantiated. James Goodison has more.
Speaker K [00:05:20]:
Jensen Huang himself and his relationship with President Trump, they clearly are good friends. As you mentioned, Jensen Huang and his wife were at the White House a couple of weeks ago for the state banquet to welcome President Xi Jinping. Today, of course, Elon Musk has voiced his support. He was— he replied saying, I agree, to a post on his X website, effectively, which called Jensen Huang one of the greatest sort of AI minds at the moment and integral to the AI industry. And that's the crux of the issue here, isn't it? Because the US is in a race with China when it comes to AI. Jensen Huang has been an integral part of the US and also the US stock market continually outperforming and being higher than especially when it comes to the AI race with China. And then on top of that, as a sort of middleman and salesman between the 2 countries when it comes to the chips themselves. So, look, it's hugely complicated. And normally if you report on allegations such as this with top CEOs at companies, then you would almost expect them to, at this point in the cycle of the story, to be out the door. But that isn't the case at the moment. Jensen Huang founded Nvidia. He's been leading it for more than 3 decades and clearly has an integral role in the frontline industry, not just in the US but across the world. So there's a huge lot of complication to sort of unpick from this.
Speaker J [00:06:44]:
Trilateral talks between Moscow, Kyiv, and Washington, D.C. are set to get underway in about Abu Dhabi in a new diplomatic effort to find a way to end the war in Ukraine. Dasha Chernyshova has more from Moscow.
Speaker L [00:06:57]:
Security guarantees and the broader regional security architecture in Europe are expected to top the agenda of the trilateral talks between Russia, Ukraine, and the United States in Abu Dhabi. European countries will not be part of the 2-day negotiations. The Russian delegation will be led by presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky.
Speaker H [00:07:17]:
It will also include Deputy Foreign Ministers Sergei Ryabkov and Mikhail Galuzin, as well as senior military and intelligence officials. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov says Moscow welcomes Washington's proposals to put security issues at the forefront of the discussions.
Speaker L [00:07:32]:
He says the agenda will cover the security of Russia, Ukraine, and the wider region. Ryabkov's participation is particularly notable.
Speaker H [00:07:40]:
He oversees North American affairs and arms control and has experience in European security negotiations. Speaking on Monday, Repkov accused NATO and EU countries of being directly involved into the conflict.
Speaker J [00:07:53]:
Russell Brand has been sentenced to 10 years and 6 months in prison after being convicted of rape and sexual assault against 4 women. Brand will be placed on the sex offenders register for life and must serve at least 2/3 of that sentence before becoming eligible for release. Ollie Barrett has more.
Speaker H [00:08:10]:
Last week, he was convicted of 1 count of rape and 3 counts of sexual assault. In sentencing him, the judge here said that he had told a series of lies to the court and described him as a sexual predator.
Speaker M [00:08:24]:
His wife was in court and appeared emotional. He was fiddling with some rosary beads throughout the sentencing remarks that were handed down by the judge. Earlier in court, there was a statement from one of the victims given in person behind a screen so as to preserve her anonymity, and 3 other written statements from other victims as well, talking about the effect that Brand's attacks on them had had on their lives. He will serve at least 2/3 of that 10-year and 6-month sentence behind bars before becoming eligible for being released on license. If he is released on license, he would have conditions such as being electronically Tagged. He is though headed straight to jail from Southwark Crown Court, where he will spend the next years of his life.
Speaker J [00:09:12]:
From bureaus worldwide, this is FSN. The main news again: US President Donald Trump has confirmed the FBI is investigating Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang over his relationship with a woman American intelligence agencies say is a Chinese spy. Trilateral talks between Russia, Ukraine, and the US set to get underway in Abu Dhabi in a renewed attempt to end the war in Ukraine. A cruise for life that left passengers stranded in Cambodia has been seized in Singapore after its operator ran out of funds. And that is the latest feature story news. Neha Punia reporting.
Speaker F [00:09:47]:
This show is almost as enjoyable as hearing the sound of the toilet flush. Rated R safety show on Safety FM.
Speaker N [00:09:59]:
This isn't a safety manual. It's a transmission. Jay Allen, PhD, host of the Rated R Safety Show and founder of Safety FM, has spent years pulling back the curtain on the systems we work in and the ones we don't talk about. What started as a fatal crash on the 405 became a search for truth. Through behavior-based safety, human and organizational performance, simulation theory, and everything in between. Safety, in my opinion, is raw, reflective, and real. From burnout to breakthroughs, from the matrix to the moment someone says, this doesn't feel right. This book doesn't give you answers. It hands you the signal. Safety, in my opinion. Available now wherever books and audiobooks are found.

Speaker P [00:14:44]:
We're rocking all day at work because we don't give a duck. Autocorrect probably just saved my ass there.
Speaker Q [00:14:53]:
Like I give a flying, you know.
Speaker H [00:14:55]:
Oh, like you know our Ready, like we go ahead and give a, you know what. Okay, so there you go. So let's start talking right away as we are 15 minutes past the top of the hour, hanging out and doing all the fun stuff that we get to do. Uh, that is for sure. Where do we want to start today? Because there's so much stuff that, um, is going on and I'm not sure on where to start because there's just a little bit of this, a little bit of that, a little bit of, you know, everything. And there's Some good, some bad, some indifferent. I look at it and go, some people are not going to be happy today in regards to some of the stuff that's going on, but it just depends on how you take a look at it. Did you hear about, uh, the CEO of, um, DC Comics, James Gunn? Well, he's a co-CEO is probably what I should say, uh, is stepping down as the CEO of DC. Oh, really? Uh-huh. Some are reporting that he's fired. Some people are just saying that he's stepping down. I don't know if that's important to you, but you know, the people that brought you the Superman movies, come on. Duh. Supergirl movies, come on. Duh. That kind of stuff. Yeah, no longer there. Supposedly transitioning out on the 1st of December. There you go. Anyways, let's start talking about some other things that are going on because that always seems to be a thing to, to have the discussion about. The Secret Service is temporarily locking down— or locked down the White House yesterday morning after a driver crashed into a sign in Lafayette Square, just north of the presidential residence. President Trump was inside the White House at the time. Reporters were ordered indoors while Secret Service agents and National Guard troops responded. Video reportedly shows driver getting out of a smoking vehicle and throwing punches at law enforcement officers. Authorities have not said Whether the crash was intentional or what motivated the driver. The lockdown was lifted about 30 minutes afterwards and reporters were allowed back into, um, or really back outside because they were inside and then they were saying, oh yeah, you can go back outside. Yeah. What a weird thing. I mean, hopefully it was an accident. I think, you know, like it wasn't done intentionally, but who the hell knows these days, uh, with the things that are going on. So what do you think there? I mean, think about that outside of your residence. on how that would work. Duh. It's one of those things to think about, man. That would get strange right away. Just think about it. Anyways, Republican Representative Thomas Massie reintroduced articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth yesterday. Massie claims that Hegseth committed 8 impeachment acts, including launching military action in Iran without congressional approval, ignoring laws protecting civilians, address extrajudicial killings Suppressing free speech, kidnapping a foreign leader, and conducting unlawful war in Yemen. Take a listen to what Massie had to say.
Speaker R [00:17:48]:
The resolution is as follows: Impeaching Peter Brian Hegseth, Secretary of Defense, for high crimes and misdemeanors. Resolved that Peter Brian Hegseth, Secretary of Defense, also referred to as Secretary of War by the administration, is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors.
Speaker H [00:18:10]:
So what do you think here? Uh, do you think that this is going to play a factor into some things? I really think that it is. This is my opinion. And really, Peter Brian Hegseth, is it? We had to go that— we had to go like that route. That was the route we were going with. And let's see, Secretary of War. It's an interesting title change there. I don't know why you would want to call it that, but whatever. Let's continue talking. Erica Kirk is furious after Dave Chappelle joked during Madison Square Garden performance that he felt better following her husband's— Charlie's assassination. She called the comments beyond disgusting, saying that political violence should never be treated as entertainment. Chappelle's remarks are also drawing comparisons to separate controversy involving podcast hosts who apologized for laughing at the joke about Charlie Kirk's death. Now let's get into that. I'm not saying that it was in good taste, bad taste, or different taste. But you kind of hear, if you listen to the clip, some people, um, kind of gasping for a moment, some other people laughing. I, I don't know. It's like, how are people going to react to certain things? Was it the right thing to say? I don't know. Was it the wrong thing to say? I don't know. Uh, comedy is always a weird, a kind of a weird spot. And let's just be realistic on what is considered quote unquote a joke and what's not considered a joke. That is going to be definitely in the eye of the beholder. I know it gets weird in regards to talking about it, but just think about it for a moment. How are you going to look at that and go, okay, this is allowed in comedy and that's not allowed in comedy?
Speaker F [00:19:51]:
We at Safety FM are not responsible for what this idiot behind the microphone is saying. He is trying to be entertaining. Rated R safety show.
Speaker H [00:20:01]:
Okay, just 6 days after saying that he would absolutely accept the midterm election result, President Trump is now suggesting Republicans lost control of Congress because the election was rigged. Oh, here we go. In a Truth Social post, he questioned how the polls could have been so wrong and claimed that voting machines were more important than voters themselves. Trump had previously blamed the Iran War and his administration immigration crackdown for the Republican losses. What changed his mind? That's not clear, but the timing coincides with Stephen Miller's taking over as the White House Chief of Staff. So what do you think here? Now, like, seriously, what do you think? I think it's gonna get interesting as we are talking about it. Let's just not lie in regards to what's happening. Duh. So there you go. Katie Zacharias fired back at reports that she's trying to get her old White House job back. The former Trump press secretary, who lasted 5 days and held only 1 briefing, was reportedly using election night appearance on Right Side Broadcasting Network to audition for another shot. 3 sources say close to President Trump claimed that she was lobbying for a second chance and trying to impress the new chief of staff, Stephen Miller. Katie calls reports utterly fake, accusing anonymous sources and media outlets of spreading misinformation. Misinformation. Misinformation. You get it. You get what exactly what's going on there. So what do you think? I didn't watch the briefing. I'm gonna— I mean, I'll tell you, we heard clips of it here. But I don't recall watching it. How bad was it? But then again, we go through so many news cycles so quickly, it's kind of hard to say, uh, what's exactly going on most of the times around here. No doubt about that.
Speaker S [00:21:47]:
Safety in a way never heard of before. The Rated R Safety Show on Safety FM.
Speaker H [00:22:02]:
Okay, the finally for conservative activists. Charlie Kirk is expressing outrage after Utah judge scheduled the murder trial of the accused killer Tyler Robinson— are you ready for this— for June of 2028. Judge Tony Graff has set aside 105 court days, roughly 5 months, for the proceeding. Kirk's family says the lengthy delay deeply disappointing, saying that every additional day without justice prolongs their pain. Robinson, 23, has pleaded not guilty to 7 charges including aggravated murder. Prosecutors intend to seek the death penalty if he is convicted. Attorneys are expected to fight, uh, to fight over DNA evidence, capital punishment, and whether the trial should remain in Utah County. So what do you think here? I'm just asking from your point of view because I have no idea. It's an interesting, it's an interesting aspect there, um, that it got pushed back, uh, that far. So here's what I was talking about earlier. I didn't get to it because I didn't give you the proper reporting, but I want to give you the proper reporting here. Take a listen to this. A big shakeup at DC Studios. James Gunn and co-CEO Peter Safran are out of their leadership positions following the Skydance-Paramount merger. The 2 will reportedly remain involved creatively but won't run the studio anymore. They've released 3 movies since their takeover in 2022: Superman, Supergirl, and Clayface. Former Marvel executive Jeremy Latcham, um, is taking over the CEO— as the CEO of that position. Skydance boss David Ellison praised Gunn and Safran for their work, but apparently there's no, uh, there's a new superhero calling the shots at DC. Listen, I don't know what the hell's going on over there. Um, it seems like something needs to get back on track because at one point they had some decent movies. I mean, I'm not saying they're all terrible, but Snyder Cut Justice League, normal Justice League, Batman, The Batman— I mean, it's just kind of all over the place. I don't know how that goes. I don't run a studio, not a movie studio at least, so it gets very confusing on how some of that stuff would work. So let's talk about this in the entertainment section, even though I probably shouldn't call this entertainment, but the guy's an actor, so this is what's gonna fall under. But Russell Brand has been sentenced to 10 years and 6 months in prison after being found guilty on 1 count of rape and 3 counts of sexual assault involving 4 women. The comedian, the actor, was sentenced yesterday at London's Southwark Crown Court. The offenses occurred between 2004 and 2009, and the trial lasted about 4 weeks. Brand had pleaded not guilty and denied all the allegations. He must serve 2/3 of the sentence before becoming eligible for their version of parole. Police say that the investigations into additional rape allegations against Brand are still ongoing. Take a listen to the sentencing.
Speaker T [00:25:07]:
I pass a sentence of imprisonment for 9 months for count 3, 18 months for count 5, reduced Reduced from 2 years to allow for totality, and 8 months for count 7. Those sentences are all concurrent to one another to further allow for totality, but consecutive to the sentence for rape. The sentence I pass on count 6, rape, is 9 years imprisonment. So the total sentence is one of 10 years, 6 months. Thank you. The few days you have already served will count. You will serve 2/3 of that sentence, then be released on license and will be liable to be recalled into custody if you breach its terms. On your release, you will also be indefinitely subject to the notification requirements under the Sexual Offenses Act 2003.
Speaker H [00:26:05]:
Okay, so that sounds to me the license The 2/3 thing is definitely a reference to parole, is what our version of that would be. And then I'm assuming, because it's an assumption here because I don't live over there, so I don't really understand it all, uh, that he is going to be put on a, um, on a watch list, especially having to wear an electronic device. And you heard that very clearly. He has to serve 2/3 of what is going on there. And then the other side is that if he is to violate anything, Afterwards, he will be put back into jail. That's kind of interesting, kind of an interesting combination of things. So 2/3 is what you're looking at before you can even be seen to doing anything else. And then the other question to come about is that these outstanding cases that are going on, if— and it is a big if— he is to be found guilty of any of it, does that mean that anything that he's, uh, that anything that would be tagged on Would that be addition to, and it has to actually be handled immediately, or does that get moved into some other superposition is the question that I have to ask because one never truly understands what's going on. So there you go. So do you want to get into some odd stories or do you want to kind of keep this kind of normal as we're going? I don't know. Let's kind of take a look at some of it. Angela Shoshone. is suing an upscale Los Angeles hibachi restaurant after claiming a chef cooking oil caught fire, spreading flames across the floor and engulfing her legs. She suffered second-degree burns, underwent surgery and skin grafts, spent nearly 2 weeks in a burn center. She also claims restaurant employees rushed to help, but the chef left, uh, left her to deal with the flames herself. She says that she'll be scared for life and is seeking damages. So what do you think here? I mean, I don't know exactly what one is to do, um, in that case. It's— let's just be realistic. So there you go. Let's continue talking about some other stuff. Around 250 people gathered at Chicago Millennium Park to push the famous Cloud Gate sculpture, uh, between— or better known as the Bean— 7 inches to the left. Organizers claimed that it might be a man trapped inside and moving sculpture, it could reveal the hidden door so they could rescue him and the pickle and other supplies. One attendee initially claimed that they moved an inch, but, um, later admitted that the massive sculpture hadn't budged. At least 250 people and some exercise, the Bean didn't even break a sweat. Are we talking about that reflecting thing that they have there? Because if that's the case, I don't think you're moving it with 250 people. Maybe 2,500 people, you might be able to do that, but that's probably about it. Uh, when it's all said and done. So there you go. Let's continue talking. A Maryland woman $50,000 richer after her husband, uh, picked up a scratch-off ticket for her in Baltimore convenience store, but she almost gave the winning ticket to, um, her son for his 18th birthday. Instead, she decided to scratch it herself and discovered a big win. She plans to use the money to pay bills and, um, add to the savings to help her son with expenses Talk about a birthday gift. Almost gave it away. So there you go. What do you think? Kind of a weird one there. An Idaho father and his 7-year-old son have scored their 4th Guinness World Record title together. David Rush and son Peter cleared the game of Hungry Hungry Hippos blindfolded in just 7.03 seconds. The challenge was harder than it sounds. Because they had to start with their active hand flat on the table and find the tiny levers without looking. Uh, David holds more than 200 world records, and apparently his son is following dad's very competitive footsteps. Who knew that, um, eating plastic marbles, uh, would, uh, be a family business? So there you go. Have you played Hungry Hungry Hippos? I used to play that when I was a kid. I don't know why I like that game. That game's kind of weird. When it's all said and done. So take a listen to this because I thought that this was interesting. A Bedford High School parent in Michigan is under investigation after allegedly defecating in a hallway of rival Grosse Pointe South High School following a November 6th football game. Grosse Pointe South won the matchup 42 to 0, and apparently somebody couldn't stomach the loss. Surveillance footage reportedly caught the man entering the school, walking past several bathrooms, and leaving his unwanted deposit in the hallway. When questioned, he claimed that he, uh, suffered a medical emergency. Police aren't buying it, the explanation, just yet and considering a disorderly conduct, uh, charge. Even, uh, the detective investigating called it a first. I mean, how pathetic. I mean, if it's, uh, somebody just deciding to say, hey, We're just gonna do this because, man, I'm upset that my kid lost some version of a basketball, baseball, football, whatever sporting game. I mean, how stupid is that? Because what is the point here? What did you just do? You didn't really accomplish anything. All you did was do this, and what is that going to change? It's not gonna really change much of anything. It's just one of those things that you turn around and go, oh well, okay, now that we know you don't know how to lose. What do you think? Just a thought. Okay, so with that being said, we are so close to this thing that we might as well go ahead and do it right now. Why don't we go ahead and get into our main story? Because I think it's time to do that. Yeah, I think we should do that. What do you think? Yeah, let's do that. 32 minutes It's past the top of the hour for sure.
Speaker F [00:32:03]:
Here is our main story on the Rated R Safety Show.
Speaker H [00:32:07]:
So, let's talk for a moment because I always think that some things are kind of interesting when we start talking and thinking about stuff. I want you to think for a moment. Has it been a while that you've been at the company that you work for or the organization you work for? Or is this something relatively new? Have you just been there for a short period of time? Because when you go into an organization and normally starting off, there's some things that people want to talk about all the time. What is our mission statement? This is our organization mission statement. Then this is our core belief system, and this is what we're trying to accomplish. You know, the typical stuff. And I'm not saying there's anything wrong with anything because you should probably have a goal on where you're trying to drive, opposed to just saying, hey, let's get in the car and see where the car takes us. Probably not the best idea. But I understand that organizations want to have it plastered all over the walls, what their mission, their vision, their core beliefs are. This way people walk into the organization and don't have any doubt whatsoever of the things that are going on. These things make sense to me. I mean, I'm not saying they don't. I'm saying they make sense because at the end of the day, you're doing all this stuff for people to understand what you are trying to accomplish. If you do not have shared goals, it becomes extremely difficult For people to know, to know what you want to accomplish. Now, here's the other thing, because here's where it gets going to get interesting. As things continue and things move on and things are going into that multiplex, it becomes extremely odd for us in regards of not having these systems in place. Because when you hire someone, you want them to make sure to— well, you want to make sure that they have an understanding on what you are trying to accomplish. Now, I'm going to throw some things out here because I think it's interesting when I get to talk to leaders about things that are going on within organizations on listening to these core beliefs, these mission statements, and so on. And I always think it's funny that when you start talking to someone and they start telling you about, are you concerned With how the organizational structure will be? Are you concerned with how the culture will be? Well, yes, these are things that are important. You can implement as many things as you want within an organization, but you still have to care about the culture. You can stay focused on changing things, but you still have to base it around certain guidelines. Just the way that it works. And when you start taking a look at these mission statements and these vision statements, it always becomes a portion to talk about. So here's what I've been giving some thought to. And you know that we talk a lot here about human and organizational performance. It's just kind of one of those things that we just really default to here. And I wanted to go over them again today because I want you to think about the vision statement. Of wherever organization that you're at. And I want you to think about the mission statement of whatever organization that you're at. And I want you to think about the values at whatever organization that you're at. And I'm gonna tell you about these 5 principles, cuz we talk about them all the time, but I wanna make reference to these. And I want you to think about those 3 little different segments that we just talked about and think about how these still all apply. Across the board in one way, shape, or form. So, principle 1 is people make mistakes. It's a normal part of being human. Designing systems that can withstand errors and prevent injuries. That's if we kind of want to narrow it down there. Then number 2 is blame fixes nothing. Thought leaders have long known about the corrosive nature of blame, yet still it's a common reaction at the workplace when incidents occur. Number 3, context drives behavior. Context is the circumstance that forms the setting from the event, such as fatigue, production demands, broken equipment. For every workplace injury, various circumstances lead to the behavior that resulted in the injury or other circumstances that are there. Think about it. Think about how your vision, your mission, your vision, your mission statement kind of coincide with it. Core beliefs. Learning and improving are vital. This is where a lot of people have the weird thing that occurs. They don't understand that if you blame and punish, you can't learn and improve because you can't do both at the same time. It's either one or the other. And if you look at some of these statements that are done, these core statements, these mission statements, these vision statements, they all kind of play a factor into this whole thing, opposed to it just being a conversation of just going, hey, aren't these cute for the board? And then last but not least, how leaders respond to failure matters. What happens at your organization when things go wrong? Is failure seen as the opportunity or precursors to an organization shakedown? Because I want you to think about this for a moment. When the core belief system of your organization does not make it, something has failed. What happens? Do heads, quote unquote, like they like to say, start to roll? Do people improve what is going on within the organization? Do things start changing immediately inside of the organization? Because that's what happens sometimes. We tend to look at things and not really follow along on what needs to happen. We tend to look at things and go, oh, at the end of the day, we are here to do X, Y, and Z, and that is the only core belief that the organization has. Because if that's the case, you're probably going to be in a lot of trouble. If the case is that we're looking at the organization and saying, hey, these core principles, these core beliefs, these things, vision and mission statement, all play a factor into what we're trying to accomplish, and realizing that we are going to put barriers in place, safeguards to make sure that we make it to X, Y, and Z, that's a different story. If that's not the case in any of it, then we're all having some level of a problem. So, with that being said, I want you to think about these different things. Think about these 5 principles: people make mistakes, blame fixes nothing, context drives behavior, learning and improving are vital, and how leaders respond to failure matters. If you use all those that I just referenced there, how well do they tie into the mission, vision, and the board statements that go on within your organization? If you kind of play a factor with all of those things, you'll notice that right away, just in your core system and taking a look at what the HOT principles are, they will change on how your organizational structure will work. And you're already kind of working within the system guidelines of what people are telling you that you should be doing just by applying these 5 little simple principles that kind of been around for some time in regards of learning on how to drive this whole thing. No, like seriously, drive the whole thing.

Speaker N [00:41:17]:
Hello. Safety, in my opinion, is a luxury. You woke up. You saw the system. The simulation. The structure that trained you to mistake compliance for care. Safety mutation. Information misdirection picks up where the signal fractured.
Speaker I [00:41:38]:
Because the system didn't shut you down, it rebranded you.
Speaker H [00:41:42]:
It packaged your voice. Sold your rebellion as a new initiative.
Speaker N [00:41:47]:
And smiled while doing it. This isn't a manual. It's a decoded transmission about what happens when slogans replace stories, when safety becomes marketing, and when truth gets mirrored so perfectly you forget it was ever yours. You'll see the mutation. Learning teams turned into theater, zero harm turned into optics, and feedback turned into formatting. But the signal didn't die. It was redirected. Safety Mutation is book 2 of the Signal Transmission Trilogy, available now in print, Kindle, and audiobook, narrated by the author Jay Allen, PhD. Because the system adapted, now it's your move.

Let's bring some John Smalls into our life and let him tell us about the Motivation Minute.
Speaker V [00:49:58]:
Courtesy of JaceCaseMedical.com. Today's quote was submitted by Tyler. Wayne Gretzky said, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. I don't think you have to be a hockey fan to understand this one. I've passed up opportunities because I was worried about looking foolish. I think most people have done that. You think, Well, what if they say no? Or what if this doesn't work? Or the big one, what if I fail? Well, if you don't try, you've already guaranteed one thing: it's not gonna happen. I've had people tell me ideas about a business, an event, a project, whatever. They spend months talking about it, and they're still talking about it years later. At some point, you gotta take the shot. Maybe it doesn't work. That's okay. Learn along the way. Take the shot. You might surprise yourself, it might just make it. This has been the Motivation Minute. I'm John Small. Thanks for listening.

it! Oh yes, definitely a little stenchy around here, no doubt about that. So let's start talking right away about some things that happened back on this date. So let's do that. Back in 1775, the U.S. Marine Corps is established by Congress. In, uh, 1836, Louis Napoleon banished to America. In 1969, Sesame Street premieres on PBS. In 1980, Dan Rather refuses to pay his cabbie. CBS pays the $12.55 fare. That's really news. Okay. Uh, in 1989, Germans begin punching holes in the Berlin Wall. So there you go.

Mackenzie Phillips, 67. Tracy Morgan, 58. Ellen Pompeo, 57. Eve the rapper turns 48. Heather Matazzo turned 44 and Miranda Lambert turned 43 today. So there you go. Let's talk real quick about some things that you ought to know. Uh, here's last night's winning Powerball numbers. The jackpot was for $30 million. It was 13, 34, 41, 45, 48.

Nearly 100 lawsuits have also been filed against Ozempic and Wegovy. maker Novo Nordisk. So there you go. Also, President Trump says that Iran's military capabilities have been devastated and the war is effectively over. However, he says the United States still needs a long-term solution to eliminate the nuclear threat. Also, American employers added 165,000 jobs last month, dramatically beating expectation. The unemployment rate also down 4.1%, offering some encouraging news for the economy. However, wage increases continue to trail inflation. Honda plans to build a $3 billion manufacturing facility in Ohio that is expected to create approximately 2,000 jobs. The investment represents a major boost for American manufacturing. So there you go. Anyways, that's going to sum up our time together. At the top of the hour, I will be going over to radiobig.fm. If you want to come and hang out with me for the next couple hours or so, as I will be talking about the world of music and entertainment, if you want to go over to that side of the station, radiobig.fm. If you don't want to go over there, you can hang out here with the likes of Sheldon Primus as he talks about the world of safety consulting. If I can leave you with some words of wisdom for today, success isn't overnight. It's when every day you get a little better than the day before. It all adds up if you really give it some consideration. Also, if you need some words of advice for the day, the good news, you cooked yourself a lavish meal. The bad news, now your burn marks are all on the pan. Instead of resigning yourself to ages of hard scrubbing, follow the tip from Martha Stewart. Fill the pot or pan with cold water and 2 or 3 tablespoons of salt and let it sit overnight. The next day, bring the water to a boil and pour it, pour it out and add it to the final wash with soap. And that should take care of it. Don't know if it works, but just telling you what she had to say. Anyways, I know who you are. You know who I am. Love ya, mean it, and goodbye. No, like seriously, goodbye.
