Don DeLillo Should Win the Nobel PrizeEpisode 23: The White Noise FilmRoll film! In Episode 23, DDSWTNP continue our White Noise residency by heading to the movies (or the TV screen) and examining Noah Baumbach’s 2022 film adaptation of the novel. We discuss the drive over the years to adapt the supposedly “unadaptable” DeLillo for the screen, the 2020s context of this film, and our varied reactions to successive viewings of it over the two-plus years since its release. Other topics include the central performances (especially Adam Driver as an unexpectedly good Jack Gladney and Don Cheadle as a refashioned Murray Siskind); Baumbach’s successes and failures at re-ordering DeLillo’s dialogue an...2025-03-032h 03

Innovating Leadership: Co-Creating Our FutureS9-Ep25: Getting on Code: Leaders Walk Their TalkGuests: Ricky Robinson & Keith Powell
Are you on code?
“On code” is like authenticity on steroids: as a leader you not only walk the talk, but give back, bring others along (mentor and sponsor), and fight for change when you see inequity. Being on code can be tough; after all, as guest Ricky Robinson points out, “In reality, most organizations don’t want you to be your authentic self.”
But fear not; Ricky and Keith Powell, the founders of C-CRETS, join host Maureen Metcalf to explain the many ways of getting on code…and...2023-06-1347 minFriendly Local Game PodEpisode 60: Cute Woodland Animals and Nerdy StinksGames Radar:EverdellGames Forecast:Unconscious MindStarship CaptainsIn Other News:SucreabeilleItascaPlease reach out to us at friendlylgpmail@gmail.com, we would love to hear from you!2023-03-2037 min
Innovating Leadership: Co-Creating Our FutureS6-Ep3: Rebalancing Society - Radical Renewal Beyond Left, Right, or CenterGuest: Henry Mintzberg
There’s a lot of chaos for leaders to deal with, and it’s been pushing us out of balance for decades. Henry Mintzberg has had enough.

The world we live in needs a form of radical renewal unprecedented in the human experience.
But Henry doesn’t complain: he crafts solutions. In this episode, he presents host Maureen Metcalf with an int...2023-02-0345 min

Being Whole with Dr. Cassandra LeClairHow Big Name Coaches Are Gaslighting YouToday on the Being Whole podcast, we welcome Rachael Kay Albers! Rachel is a creative director, and brand strategist for businesses that burn the rulebook. When she’s not working with rulebreakers and renegades to set fire to the box instead of thinking inside it, she writes and educates about the intersection of branding, pop culture, tech, and identity. She hosts Marketing Muckraking, the podcast that asks “What is brand culture doing to us?”
This conversation is incredibly validating and eye opening. Let’s not waste any more time and just dive in!
