Thursday, July 31st – The countdown to Audio Torcher is on, and the gloves are off. In this episode, Dr. Jay Allen delivers another raw transmission from the Safety FM studios in Orlando. He kicks things off by challenging the illusion of control in safety systems — especially when you’re hired to "change things" but quickly realize you’re just a figurehead. Jay unpacks how mixed messaging (like promoting Human Performance while pushing Drive to Zero) exposes a deep contradiction in safety culture. From there, we dive into a mix of headlines and absurdity: Canada and the UK recognize a Palestinian state — under strict conditions A tsunami scare after a massive 8.8 quake off Russia’s east coast Vince McMahon crashes his car... and might dodge real consequences Amazon pays millions to license NYT content for AI development A Florida woman tries to sneak turtles onto a plane in her bra Hulk Hogan’s final legacy campaign and Ozzy Osbourne’s Crazy Train finally charts Jay also spotlights psychological studies about why people keep making bad choices even when they know better — not just at work, but in life. (Hint: it’s not just stubbornness.) Oh — and if you’re still using outdated safety training? He’s got thoughts on that, too. 🎶 Music Feature Artist: LNZE Track: Switch It Up License #: 5661111172 📚 Signal Transmission Trilogy now available in hardcover.
