You do not become successful because of one big break. You become successful because of the things you keep doing long after they stop feeling exciting.Most people want the result without changing the routine that creates it. They chase more income while protecting the habits that keep them exactly where they are.In this conversation Rick breaks down five habits he has seen separate self-made millionaires from everyone else. Constant learning. Listening more than talking. Building great teams. Thinking bigger when you feel overwhelmed. And protecting your physical and mental health because leadership gets heavy when everyone depends on you.This is not about getting rich overnight. It is about becoming the kind of person who consistently creates opportunities instead of waiting for them.What Rick explores in this episode:Why learning every day creates opportunities you cannot predictHow listening more than you speak accelerates growth and leadershipWhy great teams always outperform individual talentThe mindset shift that makes overwhelming problems suddenly feel smallWhy your health is one of the highest returning investments you will ever makeFollow Rick's Socials:Instagram | LinkedIn | RickJordan.TVKeywords: self made millionaire, millionaire habits, millionaire mindset, success habits, entrepreneur mindset, business growth, leadership, leadership habits, personal development, high performance, business owner, ceo mindset, productivity, daily habits, learn every day, continuous learning, team building, listening skills, growth mindset, dream bigger, think bigger, overcome overwhelm, mental health, physical health, entrepreneur health, peak performance, business success, financial freedom, wealth building, self improvement, rick jordan, frequency podcast

Great outdoor gear doesn't just perform — it tells a story.In this episode of the DUX Series, host Jimbo Robinson is joined by co‑host David Schuessler and guest Radcliffe Menge, founder and CEO of Tom Beckbe, a brand built on heritage materials, modern design, and a deep connection to the outdoor lifestyle.Recorded ahead of the upcoming DUX Waterfowl Show, this conversation explores how Tom Beckbe grew from a single custom waxed jacket into a full-scale outdoor apparel brand. Radcliffe shares how the company has stayed intentionally focused — blending traditional materials like waxed cotton with updated fit and function to serve today's hunter while honoring the past.The discussion also dives into what makes waxed cotton unique, why durability and longevity matter more than ever, and how classic outdoor gear continues to resonate with both hunters and a broader audience drawn to authenticity.Along the way, they talk about the rapid growth of the DUX show, the success of the Ducks Unlimited collaboration line, and what's coming next — including new gear and the return of the now-iconic “cabin” booth experience.At its core, this episode is about craftsmanship, patience, and building something meant to last — both in product and in brand.Listen now: www.ducks.org/DUPodcastSend feedback: DUPodcast@ducks.orgSPONSORS:Purina Pro Plan: The official performance dog food of Ducks UnlimitedWhether you're a seasoned hunter or just getting started, this episode is packed with valuable insights into the world of waterfowl hunting and conservation.Bird Dog Whiskey and Cocktails:Whether you're winding down with your best friend, or celebrating with your favorite crew, Bird Dog brings award-winning flavor to every moment.

In this episode, Caroline, Taryn, and Liz talk with kitchen expert Cyndy Cantley, principal designer of Cantley & Company. Cyndy joins the show to share her wealth of knowledge on building bespoke, beautifully functional kitchens that stand the test of time, drawing from a legendary career that includes a Bon Appétit magazine cover feature early in her business. The hosts pick Cyndy's brain about shifting kitchen trends—from the cringe-worthy pink laminates of the past to modern hyper-functional layouts—and get her top recommendations for cabinetry, countertop materials, and space planning. Embrace the English Inset: To design a kitchen that looks gorgeous decades later, stick to timeless styles like simple English flush inset cabinetry. Limit your options rather than getting overwhelmed by hundreds of trendy door styles. Prioritize Drawers Over Doors: Base cabinets with deep drawers are far superior to standard doors for storage because they eliminate the need to move items in the front to get to the back, making heavy pots and pans completely accessible. The Case for Clear Islands: If space permits, aim for a clean kitchen island devoid of sinks, cooktops, or appliances. An uninterrupted surface creates an ideal multi-use environment for meal prep, serving, homework, and entertaining. Design for Reality, Not a Dream: Avoid tailoring an expensive kitchen remodel around an idealized version of your lifestyle. If you only host formal dinners twice a year, don't sacrifice daily functionality for features meant only for entertaining. The Magic of Real Stone: Don't let builders scare you away from natural marble. It's far more resilient than people think, ages with a beautiful European patina, and chips can easily be blended because it is solid rock. 00:34 – Introduction to kitchen expert Cyndy Cantley. 01:17 – Cyndy's serendipitous start: Designing a show house kitchen that led to a project for award-winning chef Frank Stitt and a Bon Appétit cover. 03:24 – The history of kitchen design trends, from pink Corian and pickled wood to painted finishes. 06:04 – Falling in love with English inset cabinetry and keeping a portfolio timeless. 09:17 – The anatomy of a cabinet door: Rails, styles, and maintaining perfect proportions. 11:16 – Understanding the standard 4-inch toe kick and aligning it with major American appliances. 12:24 – The functionality of wide drawers vs. standard doors and pull-outs. 14:48 – Smart corner solutions: Why swing-out organizers beat old-school lazy Susans. 16:35 – High-value internal inserts worth your budget: Alphabetical spice drawers, dual cutlery organization, and tray dividers. 25:00 – Designing for pets: Incorporating custom dog bowl cubbies built with slab scraps. 28:39 – Smart alternative storage: Utilizing ceiling-height cabinets and 12-to-15-inch deep floor-to-ceiling dish cabinets. 30:36 – Appliance garages, coffee stations, and pocket door mechanics. 36:38 – The truth about microwave placement, microwave drawers, and hidden panel-ready fridges. 47:36 – Countertop deep-dive: Falling in love with marble, managing budgets, and color matching slabs. 55:34 – Choosing kitchen flooring: The warmth of wood vs. traditional cold tiles. 56:45 – Kitchen hardware layout tips: Mixing knobs, drop pulls, and custom backplates. 01:00:06 – Functional spatial rules: Why right-handed cooks should always place dishwashers on the left and trash pull-outs on the right.

After four years, this is it — my final episode of Thoughts on Illustration. Instead of going out with a single deep dive, I wanted to leave you with a roundup: the seven tips I find myself circling back to most often, whether I'm recording an episode, teaching a class, or sitting across from someone in a one-on-one coaching session. And then I close with one last piece of advice that I think ties everything else together — especially relevant right now, with AI reshaping how we think about creativity and originality.Thank you for four years of listening, sharing, and supporting this show. It's meant more to me than you know.Have a Daily Drawing Practice: Why drawing regularly — especially slow, observational drawing from life — is the foundational skill every illustrator needs before taking on real client work.Know What and Who Inspires You: Why your heroes and mentors (most of whom you'll never meet, and many of whom are long gone) are essential teachers, and how to study them like a student.Share Your Work: Why sharing isn't optional self-promotion but a core part of the creative process — it builds accountability, audience, and feedback you can't get any other way.Take Technique Seriously: Moving past "just drawing with color" toward real artistic technique, and how working within a "media paradigm" (drawing, painting, collage, or printmaking) sharpens your style.Lean Into Constraints: Why creative freedom isn't the absence of limits — it's working skillfully within them — and why illustration is always applied art with a purpose.Have a Well-Defined Creative Process: Breaking down the path from brief, to research, to sketches, to finished art — and why a repeatable process beats waiting for inspiration.Illustration Isn't Art, It's Problem Solving: Why thinking of illustration as a form of design — not just self-expression — actually frees you to do better creative work.Final Advice: Why the act of making art changes the artist, and why no AI tool can replace that deeply human, embodied experience of thinking and working through your hands.Drawing Is Important — The Book and Class: If you want to go deeper on tip #1, check out the book and the companion class on Skillshare.https://www.tomfroese.com/bookStyle Class, Composition for Illustrators, and The Six Stages of Illustration: Referenced throughout this episode — all available on Skillshare for anyone who wants to dig further into style, constraints, and process.https://www.tomfroese.com/teachingPast Episodes Mentioned: Episode 62 (How do you make an illustration cohesive?) and Episode 13 (Why constraints make you more creative) — both dig deeper into the constraints conversation from tip #5.One-on-One Coaching: If you want personal guidance on your portfolio or a specific project, book a session.https://www.tomfroese.com/coachingThank you to everyone who has listened, shared, and supported this podcast over the past four years — especially those of you who've supported here on Patreon.

Episode OverviewThe Articulate Fly host Marvin Cash sits down with fly tying guru Allen Rupp, founder of Fly on the Water and Dave Whitlock's hand-selected legacy tier, for a deep dive into the classic fly patterns that built modern fly fishing. Rupp traces his fly tying education back to childhood phone calls with Bob Clouser, in-person mentorship from Lefty Kreh and George Harvey, and decades spent learning directly from Dave Whitlock, explaining why patterns like the Clouser Minnow, the Half and Half, Lefty's Deceiver and Whitlock's Near Nuff Crayfish and Sculpin remain so effective that newer materials and techniques rarely improve on them. The conversation ranges from the upper Potomac River, where Rupp first learned to tie and fish, to saltwater destinations like the Seychelles and the Amazon, where his Semper Fli patterns are now requested by name by local guides. Rupp and Cash dig into why presentation matters more than fly choice (a lesson Rupp learned fishing a single hare's ear nymph for an entire year), how legends like Whitlock and Clouser relentlessly simplified their patterns rather than complicating them, where to source increasingly scarce natural materials like hand-plucked mallard flank and Cree hackle, and which adhesives belong on every serious tier's bench. Whether you fish for smallmouth bass, stripers, bonefish or golden dorado, this episode is a masterclass in why the old patterns still catch fish and what they can teach today's tiers about durability, simplicity and effective design.Key TakeawaysHow focusing on a single fly pattern for an entire season can teach anglers that presentation matters more than fly choice.Why classic patterns like the Clouser Minnow, the Half and Half and Lefty's Deceiver remain more effective than many modern variations.How simplifying a fly pattern down to its essential materials often makes it more durable and more effective than adding complexity.Why choosing the right adhesive for a material (soft adhesive for soft materials, rigid adhesive for hard surfaces) prevents premature fly failure.When to source fly tying materials from non-fly shop retailers like craft and fabric stores.How filling Clouser Minnow thread wraps with resin in a triangle or heart shape creates a fly that is nearly weedless.Techniques & Gear CoveredRupp walks through the construction logic behind classic patterns including the Clouser Minnow, the Half and Half, Lefty's Deceiver, the CK Baitfish, Chico's Bonefish Special, Lou Tabory's Snake Fly and Dave Whitlock's Near Nuff Crayfish and Sculpin, explaining how each pattern's simplicity contributes to its durability and fish-catching consistency. He details specific tying fixes including pre-treating deer hair eye cavities with Flexament before adding Goop and a final drop of Flexament to prevent eyes from popping off, and filling Clouser Minnow thread wraps with resin in a triangle or heart shape to create a snag-resistant profile. On adhesives, Rupp runs a bench of nine different products including Zap-A-Gap in two viscosities, Softex, Tuffleye and various other cements, matching soft adhesives to soft materials like deer hair and rigid adhesives to harder surfaces. For tools he favors Mark Petitjean bobbins for fine thread work and Renomed scissors for their durability and lifetime warranty, while sourcing scarce natural materials like Cree hackle, hand-plucked mallard flank and dry fly saddles from specialty sellers.Locations & SpeciesRupp's tying and fishing roots trace to the upper Potomac River and the Mid-Atlantic region of Maryland, Virginia and Pennsylvania, where he learned from guide Mark Kovach and crossed paths with Lefty Kreh and Bob Clouser at regional fly fishing shows. His classic patterns now see action well beyond home water, targeting smallmouth bass and trout in eastern rivers, striped bass at night from Virginia to Maine on Lou Tabory's Snake Fly, and trevally and golden dorado in destinations like the Seychelles and South America, where his Semper Fli pattern has become a guide favorite.FAQ / Key Questions AnsweredWhy do classic fly patterns like the Clouser Minnow and Lefty's Deceiver still outperform many modern variations?Allen Rupp explains that classic patterns endured because their originators relentlessly simplified them down to only the materials necessary for action and durability rather than adding complexity for visual appeal. Newer flies often look more elaborate but can introduce problems like tails that foul on the cast, while classics like the Deceiver (just bucktail, feathers and flash) remain reliably effective.How does fly choice compare to presentation in catching more fish?Rupp credits mentor Brad Yoder with the lesson that presentation matters far more than fly pattern, after fishing a single gold-ribbed hare's ear nymph exclusively for an entire year. He caught roughly the same number of fish as he had with pattern variety, reinforcing that learning to fish one fly in every water condition teaches more than chasing the next new pattern.What is the best adhesive to use on different fly tying materials?Rupp's rule, learned from Dave Whitlock, is to match a soft, flexible adhesive like Flexament to soft, flexible materials like deer hair and reserve rigid adhesives like Zap-A-Gap for harder surfaces. Using a rigid adhesive on a flexible material creates a stress point that cracks and fails after a few fish.Where can tiers find scarce natural materials like Cree hackle and quality mallard flank?Rupp sources hard-to-find feathers and fibers from a mix of specialty sellers, friends who hunt and hand-pluck birds, and even craft stores like Michaels and Joann Fabrics for items like glass beads, foam and embroidery materials. He notes that machine-plucked commercial mallard flank is often unusable for patterns requiring intact feather shape, making hand-plucked birds essential for some classic ties.What is swing nymphing and where did the technique originate?Swing nymphing is a technique Rupp developed independently as a teenager on the upper Potomac by adapting light jig presentations to a fly rod, only to later learn that Charlie Brooks had pioneered the same approach on the Yellowstone River decades earlier. Rupp covers the technique in an upcoming magazine article and credits Harry Murray's writing for connecting him to its origins.SponsorsThanks to TroutRoutes for sponsoring this episode.

Quant on fait une émission consacrée au rock, notamment progressif, mais même plus généralement inspiré des 60 / 70's, on ne peut que constater la raréfaction tout autant progressive des talents à l'origine de ce courant, inéluctablement de saison en saison et cette dernière en aura été cruellement exemplaire… Mais reste cet héritage sans cesse remis sur le métier par de compétences, le numéro de ce soir en est donc encore un exemple frappant. Commençons donc par l'hommage : née David Palmer, sexuellement réassignée en 2003 pour devenir à l'état civil DEE PALMER, l'ex claviériste-arrangeuse de JETHRO TULL a donc à son tour rejoint notre Emile pour aller "torcher le cul du firmament" cette semaine. Dee avait une formation de musique classique, et l'on sait à quel point le rock progressif est friand de ce genre de talents. Ainsi avant même l'acte de naissance officielle de ce courant musical, Ian Anderson faisait appel aux compétences d'arrangeuse orchestrale de Dee sur le 1er album du groupe "This Was" en 1968, collaboration qui restera systématique puis évoluant vers le poste de musicienne de session pour finalement accéder à celui de co-claviériste officielle et membre à part entière du groupe entre les albums "Songs From The Wood" (1997) à "Stormwatch" en 1979 et dont je vous propose un extrait ici. Par la suite, Dee sera arrangeuse pour divers projets dont cinématographiques. Outre sa participation à Jethro Tull, je retiens de son talent le magnifique album de collaboration entre les membres de Yes (époque 1993 avec Jon Anderson, Steve Howe et Bill Bruford de retour ponctuel) et le London Philarmonic Orchestra pour le magnifique "Symphonic Music Of Yes". Dee Palmer avait 88 ans. Mais on en a encore sous le coude, et à commencer par TIMELESS dont je vous présentais le premier album il y a seulement quelques mois alors que les deux membres de ce duo sont des musiciens expérimentés, chacun ayant suivi son chemin indépendamment car séparés par l'océan l'Atlantique, ce qui n'est pas rien ! Mais par la grâce des technologies actuelles, nos sages et expérimentés amis Tim Taylor aux USA et Les Shaw en Angleterre ont donc produit ce bel ouvrage que je vous recommande chaudement : " The Wolf Of Time", pas mal du tout pour des p'tits jeunes !! Et comme j'avais envie à mon tour de faire plaisir au très sympathique Les (à l'écriture et au chant de Timeless), avec lequel j'ai pu avoir quelques échanges au cours desquels il évoquait un titre de FAMILY sur le second album de la bande à Roger Chapman (Family Entertainment de 1969), je lui dédicace donc bien volontiers ce titre, d'autant que le plaisir est partagé ! Roger Chapman qui s'est illustré cette année par sa participation aux concerts du Tribute Band espagnol OPUS ONE, un projet consacré au Maestro Mike Oldfield et qui à déjà fait appel aux voix emblématiques utilisées par Oldfield telles que Maggie Reilly, Anita Hegerland ou encore Barry Palmer et même la fille du regretté Kevin Ayers ! Le seul défaut d'Opus One est de ne pas quitter la péninsule ibérique. Va falloir que je descende moi-même ?! Autre anglais devenu familier d'Amarok : RICHARD ANTHONY BEAN. Rappelez vous en fin d'année 2025 je vous présentais son nouvel album "Geostrophic Pathways". J'avais par ailleurs diffusé l'extrait "Luminous". Ce soir je reviens sur ce titre dans une version alternative parue cette année en single, avec arrangements et jeux de guitare de PAUL LANDRY. Nos deux amis ont la même appétence pour ces musiques atmosphériques et j'ai toujours plaisir à faire connaître à mon modeste niveau ces deux illustres musiciens anglais tellement sous représentés de ce côté-ci de la Manche ! "Octane" est un carburant (comportant 8 atomes de carbone pour X etc...ne m'en demandez pas trop quand même !!) et ce chiffre 8 correspond aussi à l'ordre chronologique de sorties des galettes fabriquées à base de pétrole par SPOCK'S BEARD. Alors la photo d'une pompe à essence sur la pochette est plus que justifiée ! Au-delà de ces considérations esthétiques, l'album de D'Virgilio, Morse and Co paru en 2005 proposait un son assez "rock" (vous me direz on est la pour ça ! ) mais un rock plus direct et sans doute plus accessible en tout cas, toujours plaisant à écouter aujourd'hui ! Et puisqu'on est dans la branche "metal" du rock progressif, permettez moi de vous représenter une nouvelle fois cette formation venue de Tours : ELEMENTS. Un son musclé certes mais également accessible, s'approchant parfois de la pop et leur 1er album "Nouvelle Ere" par en 2023 inaugure sans aucun doute une nouvelle scène française progressive avec laquelle il faudra compter et avec grand plaisir ! Ils seront de passage à Nantes dans le cadre du PROG NIGHT au Floride ce 26 juin, aux côtés d'Unsquare et d'HamaSaari, qu'on se le dise ! Notre régulier détour italien nous emmène cette fois en Sicile avec ALCANTARA, un groupe que je découvre avec ce 2ème album "Tamam Shud" sorti l'année dernière. Un album qui se mérite, il faut en effet quelques écoutes pour s'approprier son contenu dont la musique croise les routes du Rock Progressif, psychédélique et du blues. Le groupe revendique des influences chez Pink Floyd et Riverside notamment et considère, à juste titre, qu'il se parcours de façon immersive et non comme on écoute une playlist ou une compilation. Je valide et souscrit ! Un album dont les écoutes au casque vous rendent assez vite addict et si vous tombez sous le charme italien, sachez qu'un album live sera publié dès demain vendredi ! Chouette, j'ai tout l'été pour m'y plonger ! En 1978, THE ALAN PARSONS PROJECT publiait son 3ème opus : "Pyramid", qui après "The Tales..." et "I Robot", prenait un virage plus pop préfigurant l'orientation du groupe dans les 80's à venir mais toujours avec cette exigence ne serait-ce que la pour la qualité de production irréprochable ! Faut dire que MR PARSONS avait quelques expériences enrichissantes sur son CV, notamment auprès de George Martin et des Beatles (on le voit même presque encore gamin sur le toit de "Apple" lors de ce célèbre et ultime concert sauvage des "Fab Four" en 1969). Quant à "Pyramid", il s'agit d'un album concept autour des pyramides de Gizeh. Peut-être a-t-il été inspiré par l'art-work de la pochette de "Dark Side Of The Moon" dont il reste sans doute l'ingénieur du son le plus envié de la profession ! J'espère qu'à part Amarok, vous écoutez plus généralement la radio, surtout SUN bien sur et notamment l'émission SUN MUSIC ADDICT ! Il s'agit d'un programme permettant à des talents régionaux émergents de jouer en live dans nos beaux studios nantais avec, cerise sur la gâteau, de la vidéo ! C'est à l'occasion de l'une de ces séances que vous avez alors peut-être entendu (et vu) .RESSAC. pour la première fois. Une belle fusion, une musique introspective qui, pour ce qui me concerne, n'est pas tombée dans l'oreille d'un sourd ! Si j'évoquais en début d'émission ces artistes qui le temps passant partent les un après les autres, ils restent éternels par leurs œuvres bien sur mais je crois aussi par l'héritage qu'ils laissent. Alors en voyant émerger ces quatre copains nantais talentueux que sont Simon, Charles, Nicolas et Ewen fondateurs de ce groupe .RESSAC. , je suis rassuré ! Non seulement ils perpétuent l'âme de leurs prédécesseurs mais renouvelle ces musiques offrant peut-être à Amarok quelques beau jours et surtout nous offrent autre chose que le "mainstream" des sentiers battus de la star'ac ! D'ailleurs vous pourrez les voir très prochainement en sortie de résidence, non pas au Château de Dammarie-Les-lys mais au FERAILLEUR à Nantes ce mardi 23 juin, avis à la population ! En attendant, un nouvel extrait de leur premier EP éponyme dans ce numéro. Pour clôturer cette émission, retour en Angleterre et sur un album sorti il y un peu plus d'un mois mais tellement apprécié que j'avais envie de m'en resservir une tranche et de vous en faire profiter aussi ! THE PARADOX TWIN a publié son 3ème album (après un premier essai très réussi et d'ailleurs justement acclamé par la presse en 2018, essai transformé ensuite pour le 2ème opus ! ). "A Romance Of Many Dimensions" tout juste sorti des presses à CD est produit par John Mitchell (d'Arena notamment) qui a les oreilles aussi bien affutées que celles de Spock ! Quant on aime… !

What can a World War I fighter pilot teach you about investing?

In this episode, Caroline and Liz talk with artist and product designer Susan Hable. Susan is the co-founder of the Athens, Georgia-based design studio Hable Construction, which she runs with her sister, Katherine. Celebrating 27 years in business, Susan's work spans lighting, furniture, fine art, textiles, and jewelry, all rooted in her bold, hand-painted patterns and joyful sense of color. Susan joins the show to discuss her 20-plus-year partnership with lifestyle brand Garnet Hill, her artistic origins, her approach to building an intentional art collection, and the story behind her historic 1905 home. Key Takeaways from the Episode The Power of Small Patterns: While large expressions are artistic, small, tightly repeated patterns—like Hable Construction's iconic, best-selling "Beads" print—have a unique, calming effect that anchors a space. Small patterns add excellent grounding texture on everything from seat cushions to linens. Trust the Emotional Value of Art: When collecting art, buy pieces that speak directly to your heart and make you feel a specific emotion, rather than shopping for what is trendy. If original art is out of your budget, high-quality prints, art books, and local school or community art auctions are excellent alternatives. Design with Out-of-Print Inspiration: Rather than relying exclusively on the internet, Susan builds a personal library of physical books, estate sale finds, and historical reference materials to inform her custom textile patterns and landscape aesthetics. Building a Historical Garden: For her 1905 home, Susan designed a garden mirroring traditional Victorian landscapes, prioritizing an organic mix of loose, "floppy" movements (like anemones and Gaura) bordered by clean, tight lines. Episode Timeline 00:34 – Introduction to Susan Hable and Hable Construction. 01:54 – Susan's artistic childhood, early mentors, and grandmother's influence on her style. 06:17 – The accidental textile breakthrough after a trip to India that led to their first major retail order with Barneys. 09:35 – How a dream inspired the sisters to pivot to screen printing and scale production. 12:12 – The history of the signature "Beads" print and how it functions as design's "white shirt and jeans". 18:12 – Sourcing creative inspiration from physical books, libraries, and out-of-print collections. 34:56 – Moving from New York to Athens, Georgia, and renovating a historic 1905 home through the 2008 market shift. 42:13 – Susan's philosophy on collecting art, avoiding trends, and shopping without friend interference. 52:13 – Artists Susan loves, including Rose Wiley, David Shrigley, Leanne Shapton, and Martha Rich. 59:36 – Tips for collecting local art through local auctions and charity events. 01:02:24 – Designing the latest Garnet Hill collection: Portuguese linens, deconstructed tossed florals, and custom rickrack details. Mentioned in This Episode The "Beads" Print: Susan's number-one-selling organic linear-circular pattern utilized across multiple product categories. Garnet Hill Latest Collection: Features an apparel debut, high-drape Portuguese linen duvets, shams, and pajama sets trimmed with custom pale yellow rickrack. Susan's Art Show: Currently on display at the Spalding Nix Gallery in Atlanta, Georgia. Susan's House Tour: Available to watch on the Ballard Designs YouTube channel.

Today on the 5: The most recent Red Letter Media episode is covering the recently released Masters Of The Universe movie. Before talking about the film itself, the hosts discuss whether the movie was timed correctly to capitalize on MOTU nostalgia. I wonder if He-Man as a property really requires nostlagia or name recognition to perform well.

I'm begging you PLEASE, I'll be your very best friend.In this episode I review Dale Carnegie's classic 'How to Win Friends & Influence People' nearly a century on from its publication. I walk through the book's structure: principles on handling people, making people like you, winning others to your way of thinking and leading without resentment. Timeless advice still shines (smile, remember names, be genuinely interested, listen well) but some parts feels dated (the slow course‑shilling intro and lack of psychological depth on becoming “genuinely” interested). I also dig into the tension at the heart of the book: wanting friends and influence while being told to act without obvious self‑interest.If you got value from the podcast please provide support back in any way you best see fit!Timeline:(00:00:00) Intro(00:01:52) Book structure overview: parts and principles(00:06:31) Key principles sampled: smile, names, listen, importance(00:11:17) Childhood lens on making friends and sorting people(00:13:41) Author background: Dale Carnegie's path and motives(00:17:19) The hard part: becoming genuinely interested(00:20:34) Does it hold up?

Many of us experience life through schedules, deadlines, and calendars, yet beneath them are deeper patterns that shape how we grow, adapt, heal, and change.In this conversation with Peter Firebrace, we explore Chinese perspectives on time, timing, and the timeless. Through seasonal cycles, the Chinese calendar, and the rhythms observed in nature, we look at how a deeper awareness of time can inform both clinical practice and everyday life.We also touch on what may be lost when we become disconnected from the natural patterns around us, and why reconnecting with those rhythms can offer a different way of understanding ourselves and our patients.Listen in for a conversation that weaves together Chinese philosophy, clinical insight, and the enduring relationship between human life and the cycles of nature.
Mike Belsito has spent years at the center of the product management community. As the founder of Product Collective, a leader at Mind the Product, and now Head of Product Evangelism at Pendo, Mike has built a career around learning from product professionals and sharing those insights with the broader industry. In this episode of Product Momentum, Mike joins Sean and Dan for a discussion that is absolutely top of mind for today's product leaders today: while artificial intelligence is transforming how products are built, timeless skills such as curiosity, judgment, and taste remain essential. In fact, he argues, these capabilities will become even more valuable as technology accelerates the pace of product development. Navigating AI Through Human-Centered Product Skills In doing research for a new book, Mike engaged many product leaders who had experienced previous periods of technological disruption – e.g., the rise of the internet, telecommunications, and mobile computing. Now dealing with AI-driven opportunities and uncertainties, many leaders point to the same enduring qualities that helped them and their teams adapt during earlier transitions. Rather than focusing solely on new technologies, they emphasized the importance of human-centered skills that guide decision-making and product strategy. “It’s kind of relying on the same timeless characteristics that we’ve always thought were important,” Mike says. “And even today, we still think are important, which are things like curiosity, judgment, taste.” Balancing Output and Outcomes Our conversation with Mike also explored a growing tension within product organizations – a theme also covered in recent Product Momentum episodes. As AI enables teams to create more content, code, and functionality faster than ever before, Mike cautions against using increased output” as a measure of success. Product teams have spent years shifting their focus from user satisfaction to delivery metrics to business outcomes, Mike continues. “That mindset remains critical, even as AI changes workflows. But how do we make sure that it’s not just about the output – that we’re actually building the right things?” For product managers, designers, and engineers, the challenge is ensuring that speed does not come at the expense of delivering business value. Curiosity as a Practiced Skill Among Mike’s more surprising research discoveries was how often leaders highlighted curiosity as a skill that can be developed intentionally. Rather than viewing curiosity as an innate personality trait, many described it as a practice that strengthens through deliberate effort. It's an insight that brings important implications for today's product teams. Learning, questioning assumptions, and seeking new perspectives become competitive advantages in times like these when the technology landscape evolves so quickly, Mike adds. “I wasn’t thinking of curiosity as a practice or as a muscle to be flexed.” As AI continues to reshape product development, Mike offers a practical perspective for product leaders. Technology will continue to evolve, he says, but the ability to ask thoughtful questions, exercise sound judgment, and focus on meaningful outcomes remains fundamental. Those timeless capabilities may ultimately determine which teams are best equipped to thrive in an increasingly AI-driven future. [03:45[ What is product evangelism? Being Pendo’s Head of Product Evangelism is a new role for me, one that I’ve just stepped into weeks ago. Pendo has a unique point of view on how it helps product people, and it does that through its software, and now it’s all kind of software. [06:25] Mike’s new book project — the origin story. I wasn’t planning on ever writing a book again. The publisher [Wiley] reached out kind of out of the blue and told me ‘we think you have a pretty unique point of view.’ [09:41] What’s exciting you right now? What’s keeping you up at night? Essential questions Mike poses to every product leader he speaks with, in every conversation. [14:44] Rewarding outcomes over outputs. Many product folks came up in a world where we all celebrated outputs. Like, how much did we deliver this week? But then it came to a point where we said, ‘hey, it actually shouldn’t be about outputs…it should be about outcomes. And it’s even beyond outcomes for your customers — it’s about outcomes for businesses too. [17:29] Creating the right thing > Creating for creating’s sake. We have to remember that it’s not just about creating for creating sake, it’s like making sure we’re creating the right thing. [20:47] Curiosity, taste, and judgment. We used to believe that these were innate personality traits. But lately, as I have conducted research for my upcoming book, I am learning from other product leaders that these are muscles that can be strengthened, and they are muscles we must flex regularly.

Gravity - The Digital Agency Power Up : Weekly shows for digital marketing agency owners.
If you've ever watched someone stumble through explaining what they do - or caught yourself doing it - this episode is for you. The ability to communicate your ideas clearly isn't a nice-to-have. It's the difference between being good at what you do and being known for it. For senior leaders, consultants, and founders, that gap is often where opportunity gets lost.Andrea Pacini runs Ideas On Stage UK and has spent 16 years coaching business leaders - including over 500 TEDx speakers - to become more confident, more effective communicators. His new book, Timeless Presenter, draws on principles that have worked for 2,000 years and will keep working regardless of what AI does next.Three areas we explored:✳️ Nerves before a presentation are normal - the best antidote isn't confidence tricks, it's preparation. As Kobe Bryant put it, confidence comes from having done something a thousand times before.✳️ Every presentation is a sales presentation - whether you're pitching a product or updating colleagues on a project, you are always asking someone to buy in to an idea. If you can't make clear why they should care, they probably have a point.✳️ AI makes human communication more valuable, not less. Because everyone can now produce polished content with minimal effort, the people who show up with authenticity, story, and connexion will stand out even more.Andrea's Amplifiers - three things you can apply straight away:✳️ Know your 1% - your audience will forget 90% of what you say. Be ruthlessly clear about the one big idea you want them to walk away with. If you don't have that clarity, they won't either.✳️ Raise the quality of your examples - the fastest way to improve as a communicator is to use better stories and examples. Stop leading with facts and data. Wrap your ideas in something human and memorable.✳️ Simplify without dumbing down - complex topics don't require complex language. If you can only explain something in jargon, you haven't mastered it yet. Use the shortest, clearest word that does the job.If this episode gave you something useful, the best thing you can do is follow or subscribe so you never miss a conversation.

Jason Hartman and Sara talk about the enduring strengths of income property as a wealth-building tool. They reflect on how the market has circled back to new construction and similar interest rates from nearly two decades ago, though property prices have significantly increased. They recount success stories from their recent live event, highlighting how disciplined investors have achieved financial independence through long-term real estate portfolios. To assist modern investors, they promote digital tools like Property Tracker for deal analysis and advocate for a diversified approach including short-term notes. Finally, they emphasize that real estate remains superior to volatile assets like stocks or gold because it provides multi-dimensional returns and protection against inflation. https://propertytracker.com/ empoweredinvestorpro.com Key Takeaways: 0:00 Reminiscing 2:54 We are 'area-agnostic' 5:58 Empowered Investor LIVE Debrief 11:46 Notes and income property's 6 dimensions of ROI 16:33 It's ALL just math.

For over 40 years, Sade has been making music that defies trends, ignores fads, and sounds just as fresh today as it did when Diamond Life dropped in 1984. On this episode of Planet LP, host Ted Asregadoo is joined by his wife, Julie, to talk about the band that has become the soundtrack of her daily life. With only six studio albums to their name — Diamond Life, Promise, Stronger Than Pride, Love Deluxe, Lovers Rock, and Soldier of Love — Sade has built one of the most devoted fanbases in music history. The band's lineup of Sade Adu, Stuart Matthewman, Andrew Hale, and Paul Denman has never changed since 1982, and their music carries a consistency and elegance that is nearly impossible to find anywhere else. Julie breaks down her favorite songs from every album, talks about what draws her back to Sade's music day after day, and makes the case for why this band deserves a spot in any serious music lover's rotation. Whether you're a longtime Sade fan or someone who's only heard Smooth Operator on the radio, this episode will make you want to hit play on the entire discography. Special Thanks to our Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by Steve Fox's Old School. It's a "party in a box" featuring the best of Classic Soul, Disco, Hip-Hop, and '90s R&B.

In this episode, we listen to an account of an impossible situation, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 252, penned by Nakkannaiyaar. The verse is situated amidst the dark and dangerous ranges of the ‘Kurinji’ or ‘Mountain Landscape’ and etches an exquisite simile to capture an intricate emotion. இடம் படுபு அறியா வலம் படு வேட்டத்துவாள் வரி நடுங்கப் புகல்வந்து, ஆளிஉயர் நுதல் யானைப் புகர் முகத்து ஒற்றி,வெண் கோடு புய்க்கும் தண் கமழ் சோலைப்பெரு வரை அடுக்கத்து ஒரு வேல் ஏந்தி,தனியன் வருதல் அவனும் அஞ்சான்;பனி வார் கண்ணேன் ஆகி, நோய் அட,எமியேன் இருத்தலை யானும் ஆற்றேன்;யாங்குச் செய்வாம்கொல் தோழி! ஈங்கைத்துய் அவிழ் பனி மலர் உதிர வீசித்தொழில் மழை பொழிந்த பானாட் கங்குல்,எறி திரைத் திவலை தூஉம் சிறு கோட்டுப்பெருங் குளம் காவலன் போல,அருங் கடி அன்னையும் துயில் மறந்தனளே? In this little trip to the mountains, we get to meet the wild beasts of the land, as we listen to the lady say these words to her confidante, pretending not to notice the man listening nearby, but making sure he’s in earshot: “Making a tiger with sword-like stripes, one which knows not to fell its prey on the left and always hunts it down on the right, to quiver, with a desire to kill, a ferocious lion pounces on the spotted face of an elephant with an upraised forehead, and tears apart its white tusks, in the cool and fragrant orchard, amidst the tall mountain ranges. Treading through such a space with a single spear, he comes alone without any fear; With tears pouring down from my eyes, with the affliction of love attacking me, I too cannot bear to be apart from him; What are we to do, my friend? Making the touch-me-not's dew-covered flowers with fuzzy petals to drop down, rain clouds gush and pour in the midnight hour. At this time, when the soaring waves spray and spread their droplets in that huge pond with a weak bank, akin to the one who stands in guard there, mother too has put up a protective watch and has forgotten the meaning of sleep now!” Let’s brave the storm clouds and the roving beasts, and listen to the lady’s heartbeat! The lady starts by introducing a tiger, one which is so flawless in its skill of killing that it never hunts a prey on the left and always finishes it on the right. Apparently, this was a big deal to the ancients, as we have heard this obsession over right-side-killing in more than one song! After presenting a portrait of such a valorous tiger, the lady relates a scene which seems to make even this brave tiger quiver in fear, and that’s the scene of an animal she calls as ‘Aali’ attacking an elephant and tearing out its tusks. This ‘Aali’ is a mythical creature depicted in Hindu temples with the composite parts of many animals. However, in this instance, it’s interpreted as a lion. Though today there are no lions in the state of Tamil Nadu and they are confined to the state of Gujarat, perhaps this was a time when the lions roved freely in the South too. Returning, the lady has mentioned the attack only to depict the dangerous path the man walks, with only a spear for company, in the dead darkness of the night, without a drop of fear in his heart. As if saying he may not fear for his safety, but she does, the lady talks about how though tears pour down her eyes, she too cannot bear the thought of being apart from him. After relating the state of mind of the man and herself, the lady turns to depict a third person in this scene, and that’s the state of her mother, who keeps a watchful eye on her daughter, much like how a guard would watch an ebbing pond with a thin bank and though it’s the midnight hour, would forget to seek the calming refuge of sleep. The lady concludes by asking her friend what was the man and herself to do in such a difficult situation! In essence, the lady is telling the man that mother was aware that something’s up and so there’s danger of discovery and the only course of action for the man was to seek the lady’s hand in marriage. With that nuanced depiction and comparison with a person who stands guard around a tank with a weak bank on a rainy night, the verse paints the strokes of anxiety and insomnia with expert hands! Timeless emotions have a way of speaking across the ages indeed!
