Why do so many of us get nervous when public speaking? Communication expert Lawrence Bernstein says the key to dealing with the pressure is as simple as having a casual chat. He introduces the "coffee shop test" as a way to help you overcome nerves, connect with your audience and deliver a message that truly resonates. After the talk, Modupe explains a similar approach in academia called the "Grandma test," and how public speaking can be as simple as a conversation with grandma.

1 Grants, Gaps, and the Great Freeze: How States Are Navigating FEMA’s Changing Grant Landscape 27:40
Send us a text 🎙️ EOC Podcast: Emergency Operations Conversations Series: Federal Firestorm – The FEMA Files Episode 2: “Grants in Limbo: How Uncertainty Threatens Preparedness” As federal disaster policy undergoes a seismic shift, local emergency managers are left in a holding pattern. In Episode 2 of our Federal Firestorm series, we dive deep into the turbulence surrounding FEMA’s grant programs—past, present, and future. We examine the Trump administration’s recent cancellation of FEMA’s BRIC program, the freezing of billions in grant disbursements, and the growing tension between federal oversight and local autonomy. Drawing comparisons to the Biden-era initiatives aimed at equity and climate resilience, this episode explores how evolving philosophies about disaster governance are reshaping funding priorities on the ground. From halted wildfire mitigation in Arizona to cyber readiness projects stalled in Illinois, the ripple effects are real—and mounting. We ask critical questions: 🔹 What happens when preparedness programs lose funding mid-stream? 🔹 How should local agencies respond when the federal safety net begins to fray? 🔹 If FEMA steps back, who steps up—and how? Whether you're an emergency manager, policymaker, or concerned citizen, this episode offers an in-depth, fact-based look at a pivotal moment in U.S. emergency management—and what’s at stake for the communities who depend on it.

Send us a text After a long hiatus, the EOC Podcast returns with the first installment in a timely new series examining FEMA's past, present, and uncertain future. As the emergency management community grapples with unprecedented federal changes, understanding FEMA's evolution provides critical context for navigating what comes next. From its formation in 1979 under President Carter to its current challenges, FEMA's journey reflects America's evolving approach to disasters. We trace how an agency initially focused on nuclear war preparation transformed through failures during Hurricane Andrew, achieved excellence under James Lee Witt in the 1990s, lost momentum after being absorbed into Homeland Security post-9/11, faced its darkest hour during Hurricane Katrina, and gradually rebuilt its capabilities leading up to COVID-19. This comprehensive look at FEMA's trajectory reveals much more than organizational history – it illuminates the critical importance of federal emergency support as communities nationwide face increasingly frequent and severe disasters. As host Jeff Perkins notes, "FEMA is the E in the PACE plan" – the emergency option when all other resources are exhausted. With training programs disrupted, staffing reduced, and fundamental questions about federal disaster support unresolved, emergency managers must understand where we've been to navigate the road ahead. Join us for this essential conversation about the agency that serves as America's disaster safety net, and stay tuned for future episodes diving deeper into specific aspects of FEMA's operations and the challenges facing our profession.
