The Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastMrs Margaret Ntambi on International Corporate Finance and FemTechThis conversation with Mrs. Margaret Ntambi was made possible after a previous podcast with another important voice in the Banking Space Stephen Tio Kauma. Listen to that here https://podcasts.apple.com/ug/podcast/the-intersection-magazine-podcast/id1669247992?i=1000665312331. Stephen brought a wealth of experience in banking and I wanted to tap into his insights into West Africa as well as possible gaps he identified in Uganda. The discussion about banking is important because of a funding challenge for startups in a region where traditional banking stills see these enterprises as too risky. Mrs. Ntambi therefore helped strengthen these ideas with...2025-04-1945 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastMarch 2025 Audio Summary of Intersection MagazineIn this first month there are a few ideas that we are pursuing for this year and that we believe might drive the agenda for the year. The first is an article published in WIRED magazine and written by John Carlin quite some time back in the late nineties. Titled hashtag#farewelltoarms (a tribute to previous titles and authors) the author makes a compelling case for an age to come when wars will be fought on a different hashtag#scale and on very new hashtag#platforms. Long before the major shift takes place to computerization he foresaw...2025-04-1230 minTTRT PodcastTTRT PodcastJoseph, His Brothers and the Christ FigureFound an amazing piece from Instagram talking about the relationship between Joseph and His brothers and the enmity between them which led to the sale of Joseph into slavery in Egypt. She presents the story in such an inquisitive manner as though she does not believe it. You are taken on a journey with her through the overwhelming evidence that seems to point to the impossibility or the odds that are stacked up against any of this being true and how it unfolds through the ages from Pre-Egyptian times to the reign of David and Solomon to the Split...2025-04-0606 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastFebruary 2025 Audio Summary of Intersection Magazine PodcastIn this month of February here are some areas of interest. First we share the second installment of the piece we shared from a wired article written back in 1997 by John Carlin. The article explores the evolving landscape of cyberwarfare and the implications of digital technology on modern conflict. Here’s a concise summary of the key points:Digital Warfare: Carlin discusses how the rise of the internet and digital technologies is transforming traditional warfare, making it more about information and less about physical confrontations.Information as a Weapon: The article emphasizes that information can be...2025-04-0528 minTTRT PodcastTTRT PodcastThe Law, Grace and The BelieverIn this episode we want to talk about the law and its effect on the person of faith. This is controversial because of the doctrine of Grace. We use the story of Daniel for some of the heart of the discussion while examining the effect of the law on God’s people and their relationship with it. We also mentions a Psalm of David relating to the law…one of many where it’s effectiveness in protecting the people of God is further emphasized. We also bring in an important personality-Balaam Son of Beor. He is introduced in the book o...2025-03-3119 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastHostile TakeoversHere are some of the most important conversations about how companies progress especially when there are failures in the standard transition process. The show explores a range of larger themes such as mergers and acquisitions while at the same time introducing audiences to other more technical terms. The biggest concern has to do with what limits one is willing to cross to stay at the top. You see similar ideas expressed in Billions which makes an interesting watch alongside Succession. Both leaders are obsessed with winning and both have a trail of ruined filial relationships.2025-03-2818 minTTRT PodcastTTRT PodcastChristianity, Jewish People and the End of TimesIn the episode we attempt to make some connections between the Church of God and the Traditional People of God. We use the teachings of Paul the Apostle where he mentions the idea that the Church was actually grafted into the Kingdom of God through the Jewish People. We talk about the role that Paul Sees for the Church in the last days. We begin though by talking about short walk through history to recognize and understand how the historical record helps define the relationship between these two groups. Finally we make the link between the two with the...2025-03-2420 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastWhen Media Influences Elections and Usurps DemocracyHere is an interesting conversation that helps describe the effect of media on Politics. After spending so much time talking about the complexities of leadership and succession, we tackle the effect of such powerful conglomerates on the political systems of whole continents but in this regard-the US Election. You might enjoy reading about the conversations that have been taking place in the current age about social media and technology companies and the attempt to separate the media function from the technology function. You might also appreciate the constant back and forth between Russia and the US and the claim about...2025-03-2118 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastOnline Fraud and Scams-An East African’s PerspectiveFraud and Scams Have you ever wondered how much it costs to produce a podcast? Well I have an idea. In the world of business there is what some refer to as Customer Acquisition Costs (CAC). I think I can come up with a pretty decent number to help you understand how much it has cost to create this podcast. The figure is upwards of $150. This is how much I lost in both the most recent online fraud case I was a victim of as well as a year or so old attempt to buy a used phone from the...2025-03-1425 minTTRT PodcastTTRT PodcastExploring The Complexities in ‘Class’ MarriagesSo much of a wealth of information that we can mine from the relationships that are portrayed in the Succession Series. We focus on the lives of Shiv and Tom. The series while having a strong emphasis on the media empire, is also about how much people have to surrender to make successful marriage partnerships. We also look at other series and how power couples seem to relate in strange ways. This podcast comes in three parts. First the introduction then the deep dive into the heart of the story and the background guide into the relationship between the two...2025-03-0718 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastFredrick Kyomya of Kyomya Group and Ploy.ai Making Hiring SimplerAfter quite a while of not hearing from Mr. Kyomya, we made contact and i had to have him on the pod. About 6 years ago we were both exhibitors at an ICT Expo. I was a little less prepared but felt that it was important to have a presence on that stage. Fredrick on the other hand was promoting his project Kyomya Group and their inroads in equipping young people with communication skills. He had also developed an app to help people be more confident. I found this amazing that someone was building in a relatively unexplored area. Fast...2025-03-0716 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastConversation with Gerald Sebunya of KAWU a school payments platformA few months ago I attended an event held by an important local ecosystem player. He event stood out for in because of the manner in which we were able to interact with founders as well as founders of the tech and innovation ecosystem in Uganda. From that event I made contacts that I am still utilizing to this day. This is one of them. KAWU is a product that allows parents to send their children money which the students can then use throughout their time in school. It is both a hardware and software play by combining an...2025-02-2828 minTTRT PodcastTTRT PodcastThe Subject Of Sacrifice in Andor (A Star Wars Spin Off).n this episode we explore the complex subject of sacrifice. This has so many applications from politics to religion to family. Most of our governments especially those that were established post colonialism are still struggling with a ruling class that feels like it invested more in the liberation of its people. You see the same concerns within companies whose founders for example originate from families. When liberations struggles are no longer the currency, the battle moves to those who are more willing to engage through non violent means-in this case demonstrations. Either way there will always be those who...2025-02-2711 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastDetermining Investment Worthiness-Lessons from the Billions SeriesWhy the interest? A few months ago, I was approached by a popular VC fund seeking individuals who would help identify startups that would be suitable for investment. I identified two some of which had already interacted with the VC/Angel landscape but was keen to get my feet wet as well as of course make some money (they were offering about USD 500 per find). So I did what everyone in the modern day should do. I did a search? No I asked AI. I asked a tool that comes with the Opera Browser how to determine...2025-02-2117 minTTRT PodcastTTRT PodcastAn Exploration of How People Find JesusThere are a few examples describing how people find Jesus. In this episode of the TTRT Podcast we look at a few of them and define key ideas that should help us understand what our own journey might be. While in various stages of our lives we often despised those who attempted to bring us to the savior there are quite a number of examples of people who were used by God to draw us to His son. That said the question still remains…do we find God or does he find us? 2025-02-1819 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastExploring The Issue of Identity in S2E8 of BillionsThere are quite a number of studies or shows about say the difference between Traditional Schools and the School of Hard Knocks. Street smarts and Book Smarts. In this episode I wish to touch on the influence of Fathers on Sons. The show goes to great lengths to explore the relationships between fathers and sons and a critical point in time fractures are revealed in the life of the Financial genius as he confronts his Legal Foe. The contacts and benefits that come with a good name are vast. The Bible talks about this when it says, “a good na...2025-02-1417 minTTRT PodcastTTRT PodcastWord For 2025: The Hand Of The LordIts been a long time coming. In the late nineties, my pastors in Texas had created an end year event where they gave us direction for the coming year. Its been about 20 years since i had something similar although in Uganda it is a common practice now for leaders to set the spiritual pace for the year. Around January this verse came to me and all i did was just google it. The response was astounding. This is for me but if any part of it resonates with you, i encourage you to take it to heart...2025-02-1115 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastCharles Batambuze on Copyright Law in Uganda and the work of URROThis is perhaps the most extensive and useful conversation we have had regarding the Subject Of Intellectual Property Rights and Protections in Uganda.

For some both beforecand when he is described as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, for others he is the King of the Jews, for others he was and is the Healer, others describe him as the Son of God, still others call him the Lion of The Tribe of Judah.

The piece we share is really a combination of two things. Personal thoughts about ideas that dominated debate and affected the outcome as well as some very well written pieces that I found on an Application I use talking about the effect of US elections on markets. The piece also suggested what to expect from a republican win as well as from a Democrat win.

This might just be one of them. Most enterprises avoid the temptation of talking a little too much about politics and governance. But it is hard to ignore some of the obvious challenges that those we deal with or hope to create solutions for are facing.

In some democracies, we see similar relationships between the Executive, Judicial and Legislative Branches of Government and how a balance and effective use of these can help during moments of crisis. Closer home though we challenge subscribers to embrace their individual responsibility to make judgments of their own in a time when we...2024-06-0507 minThe Intersection Magazine PodcastThe Intersection Magazine PodcastCash Economies as Hindrances to Long Term Economic Planning and Development-Sente Za LeeroThis is the second piece where we discuss another phrase that is used frequently but that was punctuated in an unfortunate situation.
