NPR's Book of the Day - Alice Carrière’s memoir tackles the dissonance between memory and mental health

Alice Carrière grew up in Manhattan under the care – and absence – of two extraordinarily creative parents: artist Jennifer Bartlett and actor Mathieu Carrière. But her mother's trauma, her father's transgressions, and her own dissociative disorder broke Alice's ties to her own identity and humanity. In her memoir, Everything/Nothing/Someone, she recounts some of the most difficult moments of her life – but as she tells NPR's Ailsa Chang, she also used writing, her mother's dementia and a reconciliation with her father to reclaim her own reality.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S8 Bonus: Andrew Kahl, BackBox

Andrew Kahl has spent 30 years in tech, and has had many wonderful experiences. He graduated in 1992, and actually accidentally entered the industry, when he came across a job ad for Compaq. He's been in tech ever since, all around the building of things. Outside of tech, he is marred with 2 daughters - one of which he just sent to college, and one in high school. Along side of that, they have 3 overly energetic German shepherds.

Andrew was part of a private equity group, which acquired BackBox in late 2021. He stepped in as CEO, maintaining the technology team in Israel and bringing the GTM team to the US. Taking over a fantastic product, Andrew set his sights on growing the company.

This is the creation story of BackBox.

Bay Curious - The Burrito. The Myth. The Legend.

You may have seen articles use "Mission-style" to describe a certain kind of burrito you can find at taquerias in San Francisco's Mission District. They're wrapped in foil, loaded with delicious stuff, and weigh almost as much as a newborn. But does the term "Mission-style" really mean anything? Reporter César Saldaña went to the neighborhood to talk with some long-time taqueria owners to find out more about these big burritos.

CoinDesk Podcast Network - CARPE CONSENSUS: How to ‘Rage Quit’ a DAO, Safely

The latest in a series of "rage quits" that showcase how DAOs deal with factions of investors who lose faith in their vision and demand their money back.

On “Carpe Consensus,” hosts Ben Schiller and Danny Nelson dive into the latest crypto news.

  • [1:15] Ben kicks off the show by recounting his time on the (muddy) playa of Burning Man 2023. Are some foundational ideals of the festival harmonious with the crypto ethos?
  • [6:07] Inside the Desk: North Korea-linked hacker collective Lazarus Group has been linked to yet another crypto hack.
  • [12:06] Danny’s Dungeon: NounsDAO is the latest decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) to undergo a so-called “rage quit.” The mechanism for this particular treasury split is relatively new and allows disaffected investors to, potentially, exit peacefully.

“Carpe Consensus” is executive produced by Jared Schwartz and produced and edited by Eleanor Pahl.
