Every producer wants to land massive enterprise accounts, but very few are willing to embrace the daily, unglamorous grind required to get there.In this episode, Andy Neary sits down with Michael Hart of Dillingham Insurance to discuss how the grueling discipline of college football translates directly into building a $1.6M employee benefits book from scratch. Michael shares the exact advice his college coach gave him - “Hard work and consistency beats talent every day" - and how he applies that exact mindset to his daily sales pipeline.We break down the critical difference between pitching and listening, how to use the "six degrees of separation" to successfully prospect into the C-Suite , and why intentional collaboration is the ultimate weapon for closing complex, self-funded cases. Michael also shares his elite post-mortem strategy for handling a Broker of Record (BOR) loss without burning bridges , ensuring you learn from the defeat just like a championship team watching game film.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callcompletegameu.com/agaKEY MOMENTS0:00 - From Medical Sales to Insurance: The Early Grind04:30 - Transitioning from Worksite to Full Benefits Consulting10:15 - The Rookie Ego Check: Stop Pitching and Start Listening13:50 - The 6 Degrees of Prospecting (How to Connect with CFOs)21:30 - Moving Your Pipeline One Step Every Single Day24:35 - Why Consistency Always Beats Talent (The College Linebacker Mindset)33:10 - How to Handle a BOR Loss Like a Championship Team39:20 - Morning Routines, Goal Setting, and Elite HabitsCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY

Hey folks, Alex here, let me catch you up! Most important news about this week came today, mid-show, OpenAI dropped GPT 5.4 Thinking (and 5.4 Pro), their latest flagship general model, less autistic than Codex 5.3, with 1M context, /fast mode and the ability to steet it mid-reasoning. We tested it live on the show, it's really a beast. Also, since last week, Anthropic said no to Department of War's ultimatum and it looks like they are being designated as supply chain risk, OpenAI swooped in to sign a deal with DoW and the internet went ballistic (Dario also had some .. choice words in a leaked memo!) On the Open Source front, the internet lost it's damn mind when a friend of the pod Junyang Lin, announced his departure from Qwen in a tweet, causing an uproar, and the CEO of Alibaba to intervene. Wolfram presented our new in-house wolfbench.ai and a lot more! P.S - We acknowledge the war in Iran, and wish a quick resolution, the safety of civilians on both sides. Yam had to run to the shelter multiple times during the show. ThursdAI - Highest signal weekly AI news show is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.OpenAI drops GPT 5.4 Thinking and 5.4 Pro - heavy weight frontier models with 1M context, /fast mode, SOTA on many evalsOpenAI actually opened this week with another model drop, GPT 5.3-instant, which... we can honestly skip, it was fairly insignificant besides noting that this is the model that most free users use. It is supposedly “less cringe” (actual words OpenAI used). We all wondered when 5.4 will, and OpenAI once again proved that we named the show after the right day. Of course it drops on a ThursdAI. GPT 5.4 Thinking is OpenAI latest “General” model, which can still code, yes (they folded most of the Codex 5.3 coding breakthroughs in here) but it also shows an incredible 83% on GDPVal (12% over Codex), 47% on Frontier Math and an incredible ability to use computers and browsers with 82% on BrowseComp beating Claude 4.6 at lower prices than Sonnet! GPT 5.4 is also ... quite significantly improved at Frontend design? This landing page was created by GPT 5.4 (inside the Codex app, newly available on Windows) in a few minutes, clearly showing significant improvements in style. I built it also to compare prices, all the 3 flagship models are trying to catch up to Gemini in 1M context window, and it's important to note, that GPT 5.4 even at double the price after the 272K tokens cutoff is still.... cheaper than Opus 4.6. OpenAI is really going for broke here, specifically as many enterprises are adopting Anthropic at a faster and faster pace (it was reported that Anthropic is approaching 19B ARR this month, doubling from 8B just a few months ago!) Frontier math wizThe highlight from the 5.4 feedback came from a Polish mathematician Bartosz Naskręcki (@nasqret on X), who said GPT-5.4 solved a research-level FrontierMath problem he had been working on for roughly 20 years. He called it his “personal singularity,” and as overused as that word has become, I get why he said it. I've told you about this last week, we're on the cusp. Coding efficiencyThere's tons of metrics in this release, but I wanted to highlight this one, where it may seem on first glance that on SWE-bench Pro, this model is on par with the previous SOTA GPT 5.3 codex, but these dots here are thinking efforts. And a medium thinking effort, GPT 5.4 matches 5.3 on hard thinking! This is quite remarkable, as lower thinking efforts have less tokens, which means they are cheaper and faster ultimately! Fast mode arrives at OpenAI as wellI think this one is a direct “this worked for Anthropic, lets steal this”, OpenAI enabled /fast mode that.. burns the tokens at 2x the rate, and prioritizes your tokens at 1.5x the speed. So, essentially getting you responses faster (which was one of the main complains about GPT 5.3 Codex). I can't wait to bring the fast mode to OpenClaw with 5.4, which will absolutely come as OpenClaw is part of OpenAI now. There's also a really under-appreciated feature here that I think other labs are going to copy quickly: mid-thought steering. OpenAI now lets you interrupt the model while it's thinking and redirect it in real time in ChatGPT and iOS. This is a godsend if you're like me, sent a prompt, seeing the model go down the wrong path in thinking... and want to just.. steer it without stopping! Anthropic is now designated as supply-chain risk by DoWLast week I left you with a cliffhanger: Anthropic had received an ultimatum from the Department of War (previously the Department of Defense) to remove their two remaining restrictions on Claude — no autonomous kill chain without human intervention, and no surveillance of US citizens. Anthropic's response? “we cannot in good conscience acceede to their request” So much has happened since then; US President Trump said “I fired Anthropic” referring to his Truth Social post demanding intelligence agencies drop the use of Claude (which apparently was used in the war with Iran regardless); Sam Altman announced that OpenAI has agreed to DoW and will provide OpenAI models, causing a lot of people to cancel their OpenAI subscriptions, and later apologizing for the “rushed rollout”; Dario Amodei posted a very contentious internal memo that leaked, in which he name-called the presidency, Sam Altman and his motives, Palantir and their “safety theater”, for which he later apologizedHonestly this whole thing is giving me whiplash trying to follow, but here's the facts. Anthropic is now the first US company in history, being designated “supply chain risk” which means no government agency can use Claude, and neither can any company that does contracts with DoW. Anthropic says it's illegal and will challenge this in court , while reporting $19B in annual recurring revenue, nearly doubling since last 3 months, and very closely approaching OpenAI at $25B. Look, did I want to report on this stuff when I decided to cover AI? no... I wanted to tell you about cool models and capabilities, but the world is changing, and it's important to know that the US Government understands now that AI is inevitable, and I think this is just the first of many clashes between tech and government we'll see. We'll keep reporting on both. (but let me know in the comments if you'd prefer just model releases) OpenAI's GPT-5.3 Instant Gets Less Cringe, Google's Flash-Lite Gets Faster (X, Announcement)We also got two fast-model updates this week that are worth calling out because these are the models that often end up powering real product flows behind the scenes. As I wrote before, OpenAI's instant model is nothing to really mention, but it's worth mentioning that OpenAI seems to have an answer for every Gemini release. Gemini released Gemini Flash-lite this week, which boasts an incredible 363 tokens/s speed, which doing math at a very good level, 1M context and great scores compared to the instant/fast models like Haiku from Anthropic. Folks called out that this model is more expensive than the previous 2.5 Flash-lite. But with 86.9% on GPQA Diamond beating GPT-5 mini, and 76.8% MMMU-pro multimodal reasoning, this is definitely worth taking a look at for many agentic, super fast responses! For example, the heartbeat response in OpenClaw. Qwen 3.5 Small Models & The Departure of Junyang Lin (X, HF, HF, HF)Alibaba's Qwen team continued releasing their Qwen 3.5 family, this time with Qwen 3.5 Small, a series of models at 0.8B, 2B, 4B, and 9B parameters with native multimodal capabilities. The flagship 9B model is beating GPT-OSS-120B on multiple benchmarks, scoring 82.5 on MMLU-Pro and 81.7 on GPQA Diamond. These models can handle video, documents, and images natively, support up to 201 languages, and can process up to 262K tokens of context. And.. they are great! They are trending on HF right now. What's also trending is, tech lead for Qwen, a friend of the pod Junyang Lin, has posted a cryptic tweet that went viral with over 6M views. There was a lot of discussions on why he and other Qwen leads are stepping away, what's goig to happen with the future of OpenSource. The full picture seems to be, there are a lot of internal tensions and politics, with Junyang being one of the youngest P10 leaders in the Alibaba org.A Chinese website 36KR ( Kind of like a chinese techcrunch) reported that this matter went all the way up to Alibaba CEO, who is no co-leading the qwen team, and that this resignation was related to an internal dispute over resource allocation and team consolidation, not a firing. I'm sure Junyang is going to land somewhere incredible and just wanted to highlight just how much he did for the open source community, pushing Qwen relentlessly, supporting and working with a lot of inference providers (and almost becoming a co-host for ThursdAI with 9! appearances!) StepFun releases Step 3.5 Flash Base (X, HF, HF, Announcement, Arxiv)Speaking of Open Source, StepFun just broke through the noise with a new model, a 196B parameter sparse Mixture of Experts model activating just 11B parameters when ran. It has some great benchmarks, but the main thing is this: they are releasing the pretrained base weights, a midtrain checkpoint optimized for code and agents, the complete SteptronOSS training framework, AND promising to release their SFT data soon - all under Apache 2.0! Technically the model looks strong too, with multi-token prediction, 74.4% on SWE-bench verified bench (though, as we told you last week, it's.. no longer trusted) and full apache 2! This Week's Buzz: presenting Wolfbench.ai I'm so excited about this weeks “this weeks buzz”, Wolfram has been hard at work preparing and presenting a new framework to test out these models, and named it wolfbench.ai Wolfbench is our attempt to compare how the same model performs via different agentic harnesses like ClaudeCode, OpenClaw and Terminalbench's own Terminus. You can check out the website on wolfbench.com but the short of it is, a single number is not telling the full story. Wolf Bench breaks it into a four-metric framework: the average score across runs, the best single run, the ceiling (how many tasks can the model solve at least once across all runs), and the floor (how many tasks does it solve consistently across every single run). That last one is what I find most illuminating. Opus 4.6 might be able to solve 88% of Terminal Bench tasks on average, but only about 55% of tasks it solves every single time. Reliability matters enormously for agents, and benchmarks almost never surface this. If you want to run your own evals with the same config, reach out to Wolfram—he's open to community contributions. Wolfram has also already kicked off a Wolf Bench run on GPT-5.4 since we tested it live today, so stay tuned for those results.There's quite a few more releases we didn't have time to get into on the show given the GPT 5.4 drop, you'll find all those links in the show notes! Next week will mark 3 years since I've started talking about AI on the internet and created ThursdAI (It was March 14th, 2023, same day as GPT4 launched) and we'll have a little celebration, I do hope you join us live

Most leaders swear they have a revenue problem, but sometimes that belief is often the fastest way to stay stuck with “profititis.” In this episode of Disruptive CEO Nation, I sat down with Ben Hansen, the “Profitability Doctor,” to unpack why so many growing businesses still feel like they're getting punched in the face every day. Ben explains his framework for diagnosing “profititis” (strong or growing revenue paired with weak, flat, or declining profit), why you usually can't “grow your way out” of a profit problem, and how leaders can shift from revenue obsession to profit psychology.  We talk through practical ways to identify profit leaks beyond basic expense-cutting, including recognizing low-performing work that silently drains payroll-heavy service businesses. Ben also shares how to separate “run rate” operations from growth investments, evaluate growth channels like a portfolio manager, and why pruning the wrong work can create the capacity and cash to scale the right way. Here are the highlights: -“Profititis” defined: When revenue looks healthy but profit is weak, flat, or declining, the real issue isn't sales, it's profitability. -The growth trap: If profits dropped from $6M to $8M in revenue, there's no reason to assume $10M will magically fix it without changing the model. -Profit psychology first: Profitability requires its own focus and strategy, not just “sell more” plus “work harder.” -Dump ballast, don't just burn hotter: Like a hot air balloon, removing dead weight (low-value work, misfit clients, inefficient delivery) can lift profitability faster than pushing for more volume. -The “double-double” path: Ben's preferred sequence is to double profitability first, then scale revenue, because growth becomes easier and more rewarding when the engine is tuned. About the guest:  Ben Hansen is a profitability specialist, award-winning entrepreneur, and speaker who helps business owners stop the financial bleeding and restore healthy profits and cash flow. Known as The Profit Doctor, he specializes in curing Profititis – when the revenue is there, but the profit isn't. A 5x Inc. 5000 founder and former Fortune 100 executive (Dell, Microsoft), Ben built an eight-figure staffing firm from the ground up. Today, he advises $2M–$50M owner-led companies looking to reclaim the dream that got them started. Based in Austin, Ben lives with his wife Ginger and their dog Cash. He's also a fan of live music, college football, and any business that's done being overworked and underpaid.

Welcome to Printing Money Episode 36!  For this episode Danny is joined by a new guest, John Barnes (Founder and President, The Barnes Global Advisors, Founder and CEO, Metal Powder Works (MPW.ASX). From career foundations in industrial development John has built both an AM consultancy and a metal AM powders company. We are thankful to have his perspective here. This episode starts with a look at John's background and what's brought him to this point. Then, Danny and John review the MILAM 2026 event which occurred earlier this month in Tampa Bay. From Tampa the conversation heads to Australia as a nexus for the global metal AM powder market.  John and Danny dive into dynamics driving that. After the low-down down under, the conversation turns to Printing Money's why and wherefore — 3DP/AM deal analysis around the globe from VulcanForms and Hadrian in the USA, to SWISSTO12 and Additive Drives in Europe, to Snapmaker in China, and more. The best quote of the episode is actually a paraphrase from Seinfeld, as John drops “The whale is the largest mammal in the world, but it doesn't have to be!” seamlessly amidst incisive deal analysis. Danny and John will continue the discussion in person at AMS 2026 this week in New York City.  Meanwhile, please enjoy Episode 36 and check out our previous episodes too.

Dear Humans, Today on The God Show, we watched the interview Trump and CBS didn't want you to see. CBS blocked Colbert from airing his James Talarico interview, so Colbert posted it online instead. And it immediately backfired. Here's the part that matters. The clips from the "FCC-censored" Tallarico interview started pulling views like a runaway train: YouTube 1.3M, Instagram 1.6M, TikTok 2.4M, Twitter 5.1M. For context, Colbert's show averages 2.3 million viewers on linear TV. What a bunch of morons! They tried to shrink the message and accidentally turned it into a megaphone. We also covered: The DOJ/Epstein material you're being told to "move on" from, and why that demand is the tell Fox trying to sanitize Epstein as a harmless "party guy" and why that's the moral bottom of the barrel Blessings & Smites, including Bruce Springsteen, Jesse Jackson, and a long list of people who deserve none of our patience They can throttle the feed, they can threaten the networks, they can demand we "move on," but they can't make us forget what we've learned, and they can't stop us from telling the truth out loud. Love, God

What if hiring autistic adults wasn't about charity—but about brilliance, innovation, and real business results? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, I sit down with Tara May, CEO of AspiriTech, a tech company with 90% autistic employees doing QA, cybersecurity, and data services across the country. What started at a kitchen table is now a $6M company proving what autistic talent can actually do when workplaces are designed differently. Tara and I talk honestly about: Why autistic adults are still massively underemployed—and why that's a business failure, not a talent issue How AspiriTech rethinks "disability" and centers strengths instead of deficits What employers get wrong about accommodations (and why most cost nothing) How autistic job seekers can advocate for themselves without burning out Why parents don't need to panic when their autistic kid wants a nontraditional career Free, real-world pathways into cybersecurity and tech for autistic adults This is not inspiration porn. This is a real conversation about work, burnout, systems, and what actually works for autistic adults navigating employment. If you're autistic, a parent, an employer, or someone tired of being told to "just try harder," this episode is for you.

The Chicago Bears are officially in the market for a new offensive coordinator after losing Declan Doyle — and this job just became one of the most attractive in the NFL.

Stuart Mitchell: How he built $3M in 3 years (then realised he hated his own job)Stuart Mitchell launched Hampton North in September 2022.$1.6 million year one. $2.5 million year two. On track for $3 million plus in year three.Now 10 staff and projects $1m profit for next year.I interviewed him on the show in the middle of 2023, and things were flying.But over the following 18 months, he nearly broke.His dad died. His wife fell pregnant. And the VP he'd promised her-the guy who was supposed to take the pressure off-pulled out in January."I had to go home to my newly pregnant wife and have a really hard conversation."For 6 months, Stuart ground it out alone. High expectations, low empathy. The worst version of himself.Then at a wedding, his old running mate Greg Anderson said: "I think we should do this again."Greg joined in June and immediately told Stuart the truth: "There is nothing here. No process. Nothing written down. You're making it impossible for anyone who joins to actually do well."This week on The RAG Podcast, Stuart tells the full story.We cover:Launching just before the 2023 downturn and hitting $1.6M in the first yearLosing his dad and how it derailed him for two monthsThe VP hire that fell through one week after his wife fell pregnantWhy he admits "I had my own company and I didn't like my job"How one hire professionalised a business built entirely on talentBuilding a $3M agency with 10 people (and why he'll never scale past 25)Why he takes profit first and doesn't care about a big exitThe role this LinkedIn profile and brand played in attracting top-tier talentThis isn't about sacrifice for success.It's about a founder who built a multi-7-figure business, then redesigned it so he could pick his kids up from school.If you've ever wondered whether you can have both profit and peace, this episode is the proof you need!__________________________________________Episode Sponsor: AtlasAdmin is a massive waste of time.

Welcome to Printing Money Episode 35 and let us be the last to wish you a happy new year. For this episode Danny is joined by Arno Held (Managing Partner, AM Ventures) and Alex Kingsbury (Market Development Manager, nLIGHT), both certified Printing Money OG's. Coming off back-to-back “Troy Jensen” episodes focused on public company earnings reports, there was a lot of 3DP/AM transaction news to cover, so we covered a lot.  Even still, we can't cover all the 3D printing business news. Themes from Episode 35 include AI for 3DP/AM (and vice versa) and Australia, Smart M&A, all underlaid by a healthy dose of optimism.  The episode opens with a look at 2025 through each of our host's respective lens. Then, it's a discussion of notable 3DP/AM financings in recent months. Last, Danny, Arno and Alex analyze recent M&A activity.  After the manic highs and depressive lows of the 2020-2025 3DP/AM business cycle, is the industry signaling a new normal? Danny, Alex and Arno will all continue the discussion in person at AMS 2026 next month in New York City.  Meanwhile, please enjoy Episode 35 and check out our previous episodes too.

Send us a textRHOP-$14K Lies, No Water, and Broken TrustRHOP S10 E14 – “High and Dry” Podcast SummaryThis episode picks up mid-chaos with Angel confronting rumors being spread about her finances and real estate dealings. Wendy reveals that a realtor friend claimed Angel wanted a $14,000/month property while only willing to pay $1,000—which Angel vehemently denies, jumping up to defend her “rich ass” and insisting she did pay $14K. The group debates the realtor's credibility, with Wendy standing firm that her friend has no reason to lie. Stacey suggests calling the agent on the spot, but Angel shuts it down, insisting not everything needs to be handled publicly.Angel attempts to reset with a “mindful moment,” declaring her business will open in 2026 regardless of gossip. Tensions linger as the ladies move into a yoga-style intention-setting session—where Giselle's only intention is securing a room with a bathroom, foreshadowing what's to come.Housing drama explodes when it's revealed not everyone can stay at Angel's estate. Kiana and Tia end up back at Angel's house, while others are left at a distant rental. Giselle immediately questions the logistics, fairness, and lack of amenities. Meanwhile, Angel calls complaints about the $1.6M home “ingratitude.”The mixer at Angel's property is visually stunning—36 acres, open-fire dining, violinist, oxygen bar—but the vibe is off. Giselle directly tells Angel her hosting energy was “whacked,” criticizing the long drive, lack of water, and separation of the group. Angel apologizes but explains it's peak season and claims she was unaware of the water issues.The night devolves into emotional confrontations, particularly between Stacey, Tia, and Monique. Accusations of lying, flip-flopping, and leaking information to Monique's ex escalate to threats of legal action and custody modifications. Trust is clearly fractured.Angel unveils lavish plans for a private jet trip to Aspen, but any excitement is overshadowed when the women return—late, in the dark, with no security and no running water. Day two opens with prayers just to wash hands. Giselle officially takes control, calling the situation “foolishness,” while Angel discovers the water failure only after being alerted—along with learning new gossip about what's being said about her husband Bobby.The episode ends drenched in unresolved tension, logistical failure, and mounting distrust—emotionally and literally high and dry.Support the showhttps://www.wewinewhenever.com/

In today's episode, I'm sitting down with Kacia Ghetmiri, host of the empowerHER podcast, a mom and wife, speaker, real estate agent, investor, and serial entrepreneur, for an honest, grounding conversation about what happens when success, identity, and ambition shift after becoming a mother. We talk about the quiet (and not-so-quiet) identity unraveling that can happen in this season, the pressure to “bounce back,” and the permission required to redefine success on your own terms - not based on who you were before or what anyone else is doing online. This episode is for you if you're navigating a pivot, feeling disconnected from old goals, or craving a more sustainable, self-trusting version of success in this next chapter.Here's what we explore together in this conversation:The behind-the-scenes decision to pause and pivot away from a multiple–seven-figure brand, and how Kacia navigated fear, intuition, and outside opinionsHow to trust yourself when you know something no longer fits, even when you don't yet have clarity on what's nextThe identity shifts that happen when motherhood meets entrepreneurshipReleasing comparison — both to past versions of yourself and to other women in different seasonsHow to identify the season you're in, own your capacity, and stop forcing yourself to want what no longer feels trueWhat Kacia's current season looks like now, what she's doing differently this time, and how joy and fun have become her compassIf you're an entrepreneur, a mom, or a woman navigating a season of change — questioning what you want, how you want to work, or what success really means to you now — this conversation will meet you right where you are.More about Kacia:Kacia Ghetmiri is a mom and wife, speaker, real estate agent, investor, and serial entrepreneur.

Remember when building a luxury Ritz-Carlton tower in downtown Portland seemed like a brilliant idea? Fast forward to 2026, and we've got a 50% fire sale on units that can't even move at half price. What could go wrong with $7.85 million condos surrounded by open-air drug markets, zombie mini-marts, and streets you wouldn't walk at night?We're breaking down how this 460-foot skyscraper went from Portland's luxury flagship to an absolute albatross—with one-bedrooms slashed from $1.2M to $600K, two-bedrooms cut from $2.6M to $1M, and three-bedrooms gutted from $3.3M to $1.6M. Only 11 of 130+ units sold, and the lender is desperate to move inventory. We'll walk through the dystopian street-level reality, the appraiser's brutal analysis showing units priced 3.7X higher than downtown averages, and why even world-class finishes can't overcome external obsolescence when your neighborhood features hypodermic needles and human feces.Is this a buying opportunity or the perfect case study in timing over location? Will 50% off actually move the needle, or do these prices need to drop another 20%? Drop your thoughts below—and if you've experienced downtown Portland lately, share your stories.

What really kills business deals—without anyone noticing? Not the obvious red flags.Not the spreadsheets.But the quiet mistakes buyers make the moment they think they’ve already won. In this episode, Jaryd Krause sits down with John Martinka (aka The Escape Artist), who’s spent 25+ years advising buyers and sellers across 150+ real acquisitions. No theory. Just what actually happens in deals. You’ll hear why first-time buyers fall in love too fast, how stopping your search early weakens your position, and why relationships matter more than price once negotiations get serious. John also reveals how “great on paper” deals quietly turn into long-term stress, and what to do instead. Plus, what happens after the deal closes: how one small shift helped a buyer grow a business by 75% in under a year, and why growth often fixes problems faster than perfection ever will. If you’re buying a business (or even thinking about it), this episode will change how you see deals before it’s too late.

The 26-year-old Memphis trap star, known for his raw street storytelling and aggressive beats, was released from federal prison on October 6, 2025, after serving three years of a 63-month sentence. During incarceration, Pooh Shiesty focused on personal growth—building a workout routine, daily reading for sharper focus, temper control, emotional maturity, and a deeper spiritual connection. Now sober and grounded, he views this as his "second chance" with clearer vision.His post-release single "FDO" (First Day Out), dropped December 12, 2025, produced by longtime collaborator TP808s, celebrates freedom and perseverance. The introspective yet confident track blends classic Shiesty aggression with matured lyricism, earning praise from XXL and Pitchfork as a fiery, authentic return. With "Back in Blood" ft. Lil Durk now 8× Platinum and surging streams (over 6M monthly Spotify listeners), Pooh Shiesty confirmed an upcoming album in a recent Apple Music interview with Ebro Darden—expected soon, channeling prison lessons, faith, and real-life experiences under Gucci Mane's mentorship. Analytic Dreamz breaks down why this redemption arc makes Pooh Shiesty one of hip-hop's most watched stories into 2026.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
