Luke has been at the forefront of launching The Blue Sox Way—a new, innovative platform designed to support players, parents, coaches, and associations across New South Wales. We take a deep dive into what The Blue Sox Way actually is, why it’s focused on the critical youth age groups, and how better use of training methods, injury prevention, and data-driven insights can keep more kids in the game and raise the standard of baseball in Australia.

We engage in a deep conversation with Luke Wilson, a Canadian scholar, about his experiences growing up in a fundamentalist environment and the impact of conversion therapy on LGBTQ+ individuals. Luke shares his journey from being a teenage fundamentalist to confronting his sexuality, his time at Liberty University, and the harrowing experiences of conversion therapy. The discussion highlights the psychological and emotional toll of these practices, the importance of community support, and the need for awareness and advocacy against conversion therapy. Luke's book, 'Shame Sex Attraction: Survivor Stories of Conversion Therapy,' serves as a powerful testament to the resilience of survivors and the continuing but urgent need for change in church attitudes towards LGBTQ+ individuals.

Hi folks! I'm very happy to introduce to you my first interview guest, Luke Wilson. We talk disciples of the Apostle John, doctrines, and Dan Brown - and possibly get a little controversial in places. I've always found Luke's blog, 'That Ancient Faith', very helpful and thought-provoking. Luke has a way of taking fairly complex theological ideas, unpacking them, and making them easy to get our heads around, and I do recommend reading him. For those of us who are Christians, our faith is obviously central to helping us make the most of the seasons of our lives, and I hope Luke's work will help other people as it's helped me. Hope you enjoy this episode, and finding out more about Luke and his work! * * * * * Here are the links I promise you in the podcast: Luke's book 40 Days with the Fathers . And here's a review of it. Excerpt from review: "Luke writes his book… in a way that is very conversational, so that the average Christian can read it and get things out of it. I would encourage my 13 year old daughter to read '40 Days with the Fathers'… I give a heartfelt recommendation..." * Luke's website, lukejwilson.com . * Luke's facebook pages, Luke J Wilson, Author and That Ancient Faith . * Luke's blog, That Ancient Faith .

Tom Fox welcomes Luke Wilson to the Innovation In Compliance show. Luke is the Vice President of Intelligence at 4iQ. He has extensive experience in cyber threat analysis and counter-terrorism, having worked with the federal government for many years. Luke and Tom chat about trending cybersecurity issues in this week’s show. The Adversary Intelligence Company Tom asks Luke why 4iQ calls itself The Adversary Intelligence Company. Luke responds that their mission at 4iQ is to help their clients defend themselves against bad actors. “We're here to help you defend yourself from adversaries,” he says. “...We want to help you gather intelligence on those individuals so you can understand their TTPs [tactics, techniques, and procedures], what they're after, and how to prevent that from happening in the future as well.” He points out that good cybersecurity involves understanding your third-party service providers, including who is supplying data and infrastructure to them. COVID’s Impact on Cybersecurity “The impact of the coronavirus health crisis has been that it has accelerated, sometimes exponentially, trends that were already in play,” Tom comments. Luke explains how the pandemic has impacted the cybersecurity space. “It’s the perfect scenario for cybercrime and for cybercriminals to ramp up their attacks,” he remarks. Employees used protected networks at the office, but now that they’re working from home, that basic protection is not available. As a result, there has been an uptick in cybercrime, including ransomware phishing. Luke expects these trends to continue in 2021 and beyond: “I see a continuation of the threats that are out there now. A lot of what's going on is just a repackaging of what's been happening for a while now in the cyber threat landscape… I think we're going to see this going for a very long time until COVID-19 is not the main topic around the world.” Luke and Tom discuss the measures the government may take to deal with financial crime. “Whenever you have a massive event like this [COVID-19 federal loans], you can expect that there will be some fraud going on,” Luke says. “But I probably would assess that they'll put a little bit more stringent criteria on there after what they've seen happening now with some of these loans.” Resources 4iQ.com 4iQ on LinkedIn COVID-19 Threat Report
