Arabic Version of Ed Sheeran "Thinking Out Loud"

This week on the Jenni Hogan Podcast: Entrepreneurship Rising Series brought to you by the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® program in the Pacific Northwest, we're talking with Scott Allan of Bend, Oregon’s Hydro Flask, an outdoor and specialty products company. This past March, Texas based Helen of Troy announced the acquisition of Hydro Flask, where Scott served as CEO. Continuing to help lead the company as General Manager, Scott will share his experience with the acquisition as well as lessons and advice he has learned over his diverse career.

Entrepreneurship Rising: Scott Allan

Richard Miller, president of Olin College, describes disruptive ideas about education and learning that universities should adopt to graduate more creative, entrepreneurial and impactful engineers. He explains how a focus on math and science alone won't result in more innovation, and that higher education must instill traits like grit and independent thinking.

Richard Miller - More Innovation Through Education

Rowan Williams’s fascination with Russia goes back to his boyhood, and to watching the films of Sergei Eisenstein, which evoked for him a sense of strangeness, tragedy and extremes. As a teenager, he embarked on Russian literature, beginning with Fyodor Dostoevsky, whom he found profoundly and deeply compelling. While Archbishop of Canterbury, he then took a three-month sabbatical to write Dostoevsky: Language, Faith and Fiction (2010). In this talk, he explores the “thread of wildness” that runs through Dostoevsky’s characters, what they have to teach us about human anguish and responsibility, and why “the Russian dimension” has been, and remains, central to his theological thinking and his life of prayer.

On Dostoevsky

Continuing on Simone de Beauvoir's The Ethics of Ambiguity(1947), parts I and II.

We discuss all the various ways to fail to wholly will your own freedom, i.e., will it all the way to where you will the freedom of others. The first step is admitting that human consciousness is an ontological negative, i.e., it doesn't have static being in the way a rock or tree or even an instinct-driven squirrel is, and some people just stop there, really willing nothing at all. These are the "sub-men."

Or maybe you sign on to some cause, some goal with all your being: you fill your negativity up with something external (like God, or wanting with all your heart to become an Olympic gymnast, or devotion to doing your job well) and thereby pretend to be determined just like a squirrel is. This is the "serious man," and it's a serious abrogation of your freedom!

Or maybe you react against this seriousness and just deny that any such external thing has a hold on you, and actively will to have no values at all. This is nihilism, and it fails the existential test too.

…And there are several more iterations before you're really a fully freedom-embracing, authentic human being; in the process she ends up distinguishing herself from other existentialist atheists like Nietzsche (whom she thinks to be too solipsistic) and Camus (p. 129: "To declare that existence is absurd is to deny that it can ever be given a meaning; to say that it is ambiguous is to assert that its meaning is never fixed, that it must be constantly won.").

De Beauvoir on the Ambiguous Human Condition (Part Two)

Over the last few lessons of Coffee Break ​Spanish Season 4, we’ve seen Rory, María and Alejandro figure out what to do with the treasure they found at the bottom of the ocean. Their discovery has now made the newspapers in Mallorca, and in lesson 30 we're taking a look at one of the newspaper articles​. This provides a fantastic opportunity for you to look at different styles of writing, as this journalistic text is possibly much more formal than what you may be used to. Mark is on hand to explain everything. For a full transcript, an extended version of the audio lesson and bonus audio content, click on the Buy transcripts button.
