Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson claims crime is down — then announces a $1.7 million fund to protect grocery stores from the theft she says isn't happening. Sean breaks down the contradiction that's closing neighborhood supermarkets and turning city blocks into food deserts.From Columbia City to downtown, beloved local spots like Tutta Bella are shuttering. Grocers are cutting hours or pulling out entirely. Seattle's own police guild president says what residents already know: the crime stats don't match what's happening on the ground. Meanwhile, the mayor offers market studies, security improvements, and talking points.The real cause isn't complicated — repeat offenders, organized theft rings, and a city that refuses to enforce the law. Sean contrasts Seattle's response with states like Oklahoma that have actually reduced street-level crime through enforcement. This is what soft-on-crime governance produces: food deserts, closed businesses, and a $1.7M bandage on a self-inflicted wound.Subscribe to @reasonablenews and hit the notification bell for daily commentary Sean Reynolds won't pull punches on.#NFRP #Seattle #KatieWilsonGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS

The AFL is paying $3M for Kylie Minogue, but Peter V'landys and the NRL scrapped Grand Final entertainment altogether.

MAPS Abs and Butt: https://mapsabsandbutt.com Code: LAUNCH for 40% off. Includes Butt Building Diet Guide, Women's Supplement Guide, at-home dumbbell version and a free second program at checkout (Muscle Mommy or Muscle Mommy 15).   In this episode the guys break down rep speed — slow reps, fast reps and pause reps — and what the data actually says. They cover why saying it doesn't matter for hypertrophy misses the nuance completely, why injury risk alone makes rep speed matter enormously, why slow reps are essential for mind muscle connection and targeted esthetics, when moving fast matters for performance and everyday functionality, and why the novelty effect of switching rep speeds over time likely builds more muscle long term. Adam also shares why he does fasted cardio even though studies say it doesn't matter for fat loss — and why all the behavioral cascades it creates are the real reason it works. They cover the explosive growth of the electrolyte powder market (LMNT went from $7 million in 2020 to $206 million in 2023 and created the category), reading Love and Respect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs and why respect and love are fundamentally different needs for men and women, the challenges vegans face hitting protein and why Organifi plant protein is the best vegan protein they've used, and the upcoming Mind Pump pickleball tournament. Then they coach live callers submitted through mplivecaller.com.   SPONSORS   LMNT (electrolytes): https://drinklmnt.com/MindPump Free sample pack with any purchase, no code needed.

How to grow a home service business is usually pitched as doing more: more trades, more services, more offers. Paul Kelly did the opposite, and it built one of the largest home service companies in the country. He bought Parker & Sons in 2004 as a $7 million shop and grew it to roughly $260 million in a single market, then wrote the playbook down. In this episode, Tersh Blissett and Josh Crouch sit down with Paul, bestselling author of Tricks of the Trade to Success and creator of the Raising Goats program, to unpack the 4 pillars behind that growth and why simplicity beats complexity every time. You will hear why adding another trade usually stalls your growth instead of helping it, the 4 pillars that took Parker & Sons from $7M to $260M, why contractors are great doers but poor implementers, and how to keep a pay program simple enough that a tech can do the math in their head.

You will learn the specific questions to ask an agent when inquiring about an ugly listing, how to handle the (we already have an investor objection), and why you should absolutely never automate your follow-up with realtors.

After a week off for Charlie to take care of his mother's affairs and say goodbye 1 last time, he and Paris Frantz are back to poddin'! This week we react to #Macklemore being removed from #EdSheeran's "The Loop" tour and what that threat that poses to true freedom of speeach. That turned into a heavy and loaded conversation about why a simple phrase of awareness poses such a threat to a group of people who are actually not victims in the matter. On a lighter note, we talk about #Millyz & #RemyMa's newest collab on "Say Yea", a dope record that's quickly amassed over 1.7M views on YouTube and definitely has the internet speculating whether or not the two are an item. We move on to saying congratulations to #LilDurk and his legal team fo beating his murder for hire case, #RedCupsAndRatings review albums from #TheGame & #DeevoDaGenius, respectfully, and SO MUCH MORE! Charlie MaSheen has said more than once he actually loves podding more than interviewing guests so this made for a GREAT convo with a lot of laughs and insight.

On today's episode, Monday News with the Fearsome Foursome — James, Glenn, Dwayne, and Ben, all half-on-the-road with Teams audio from the bottom of the pool — Dwayne is racing critical forgotten gear toward Pine Bluff while Glenn dodges semis, and the board is pure geopolitics: Greenland's “usufruct” win, Houthis vs Saudis, a possible Iran collapse with Kurds and a fleeing IRGC, Xi's Andrews Air Force Base state visit, Canada auditioning as an EU associate, and a UN foreclosure gag AI had to correct. They mark God's fall equinox tomorrow at 7:05pm Central, roast the Astros, bid Houston and New Orleans for a Space Force Academy, and geek out on Tesla's Oct. 1 Roadster airspace tease plus Honda's hybrid puddle-jumper and one-pilot $7M jet that lands itself. Lauren Boebert's three-staffer hit job, autopen cameos from Elizabeth Warren and Adam Schiff, Trump's CNN/Politico/MSNBC press-corps curb (with a Moby Dick filibuster plan and a James Perspective seat application), a Michigan mall hero on two years' probation for saving lives without a CCW, dying malls, Charlotte's Pizzagate long game, diesel so high Trump may briefly block exports while Zelensky bombs Russian refineries again, and an ICE shooting of a Venezuelan already under final removal — then Maple Street double-shots and PJ's Exit 33.

This episode was sponsored by Cardiff & CloseSales.AI   LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ Today's Dropping Bombs episode features Austin Medlin, the founder of CloseSales.AI who walked away from a $1.2M landscaping business because he had success but no joy — then rebuilt himself as a remote closer, took over 7,000 sales calls, and pulled in $7M+ in personal commissions along the way.   Austin breaks down why "sales is service" instead of a sleazy hustle, the deep-questioning method that makes objections disappear before they happen, and how he's turned it all into an AI platform that reviews every sales call, writes custom scripts, and hands early users a piece of the company.   Sales is the one skill nobody wants to admit they need — this episode makes it impossible to keep ignoring.  

En este episodio del podcast de Itnig hablamos con Antonio Berga y Carlos Serrano, co-CEOs y cofundadores de Embat, la plataforma de tesorería con IA que ya trabaja con cerca de 600 empresas y que acaba de levantar 30 millones de euros liderados por Cathay Innovation. Durante la conversación entramos en un problema que casi nadie ve: empresas que pierden entre 5 y 7 millones de euros al año por no optimizar su caja, filiales que piden crédito mientras otra filial del mismo grupo tiene medio millón parado, o equipos financieros que dicen "sí a todo" en divisas y descubren que lo que habían vendido vale un 20% menos. Antonio y Carlos explican cómo funciona Embat por dentro: bancos conectados en más de 75 países, forecast de tesorería, conciliación bancaria automática del 95% y una IA determinista con modelos propios, porque en finanzas lo que el cliente valora es la trazabilidad. Pero la historia de Embat también es personal. Antonio y Carlos cuentan cómo el Covid les quitó el miedo a dejar JP Morgan, cómo montaron una tecnológica sin CTO, cómo quemaron los 200.000€ que pusieron de su bolsillo y cómo han levantado más de 50 millones sin hacer nunca un proceso competitivo. Una conversación sobre fintech, tesorería, inteligencia artificial, fundraising, venture capital, SaaS B2B y emprendimiento.

Adriel Yong is the Co-Founder and COO of Clouted, the AI-native clipping and distribution company that turns long-form content into short video and routes it to the right platform and audience. Clouted has raised a $7M seed led by Slow Ventures, following a $4.45M round backed by a16z SPEEDRUN and AppWorks under its former name, Clout Kitchen. The team also produces &FRIENDS, one of the largest dance and pop-culture festivals in the Philippines.  Adriel joined Jeremy Au to work through what AI has done to media. Five or six years ago, making this podcast meant cutting every "um" by hand and building cover art from scratch, and Adriel's estimate is that roughly 80% of that work no longer exists. What moved into the space are faceless pages and fully synthetic creators, plus a third feed inside the AI apps competing for the ten hours a day. Social was meant to be the escape from bought media and is now entirely paid, and the answer engines are going the same way: people used to shape human perception, now they shape the model's. Which leaves the question of what still competes, and Jeremy's answer is not sleep, the way Netflix once put it, but real life. They work through the evidence and the strategy underneath it, from the K-shaped cinema rebound to Costco's private-label discipline mapped onto AI marketplaces, and close on the framework that AI shortens the route to purchase for things and places, but not for people.

There is a new type of loan that is sweeping through the country right now. It's advertised as a super quick and super easy way to get a mortgage to buy a home. In recent years, Wall Street has been funneling billions of dollars into these loans. But these loans are also raising questions. Are they a financial innovation that's helping the housing market? Or ... a sign that Wall Street might be forgetting the mistakes that led to the Global Financial Crisis? On today's show, we head to Baltimore, where abandoned rowhomes have become a familiar sight. Reporters Hallie Miller, Jack Bologna and Sahana Jayaraman from The Baltimore Banner have been following this new loan as it's been bringing millions of dollars into some of Baltimore's most distressed neighborhoods. But, a few years ago, two local landlords quickly and quietly amassed what might be one of the largest private real estate portfolios in Baltimore: Over 700 homes and $100 million dollars in borrowed cash. Using this hot new loan. And then they tried to disappear. We talk with the Banner reporters about what they found at the heart of this mystery, and why it might have implications for the rest of the country. Read the Banner's reporting:The housing hustle igniting a foreclosure crisis in BaltimoreBefore mass foreclosures, DSCR loans looked good for Baltimore Could a few 'bad actors' upend Baltimore's housing hopes?Baltimore will investigate New York investor group for housing discrimination Baltimore is striking fear into private lenders across the country From $3.7M to $9.9M: Federal probe focuses on 42 Baltimore homes sold again and againThe FBI is investigating the New York investors behind Baltimore's foreclosure waveFake deeds, real money: New York investors accused of another Baltimore scamHow do you build a huge portfolio of Baltimore rentals?

How many things in your life are you currently trying to fix that aren't even yours to fix? An employee who isn't performing the way you want. A team member who keeps making the same mistake. A business problem you've been solving alone for years. A family member whose choices frustrate you. Your own tendency to overwork, overthink, and over-achieve.Recording solo this week from Ideas Fest, a festival in a field about 45 minutes outside London with 6,000 other founders, entrepreneurs, and investors, Lori Saitz breaks down why fixing feels like responsibility but is actually about control, and why the exact instinct that made you successful as an individual contributor is often the thing holding your team, your family, or yourself back.Drawing on conversations from four past episodes, a business owner who scaled by stepping back, a leader who reframed what it means to see people as more than resources, a guest who spent years achieving to prove his worth, and a founder who lost everything overnight through no fault of her own, Lori lays out a five-question test for telling the difference between fixing and leading, and what real trust actually requires you to give up.What You'll Take AwayWhy fixing other people's problems is often less about helping them and more about maintaining a feeling of controlThe real difference between helping someone become more capable and rescuing them from ever having to beWhy the skill that made you successful as an individual contributor can become the exact thing holding your organization back once you're leading othersA five-question test to run before you jump in and solve a problem that was never yours to solveWhat “this is how it is now” actually means as a starting point for acceptance, not a form of giving upChapters & Key Timestamps00:00 Opening: the cost of fixing things that aren't yours to fix01:27 Recording solo from Ideas Fest in England01:57 The things we try to fix that were never ours to fix02:41 Why fixing feels like responsibility, but is often about control03:10 The high-achiever hustle myth, and what it actually costs03:37 You can only control your inputs, never the outcomes04:08 The exact skill that gets you promoted becomes the thing holding your team back04:39 Will Steel's story: the business owner who scaled by stepping back (Ep. 235)05:16 Five questions to ask before deciding your team needs more of you05:55 The real difference between helping and rescuing06:30 What rescuing sounds like, versus what leadership actually sounds like07:37 Scott Doggett's boat analogy: rowing hard, barely rowing, rowing backwards (Ep. 238)08:42 Why you can't lead someone you've already decided is a problem09:19 Recognizing people as humans, not managing them as “resources”09:55 Anthony Sparks and the belief that achievement will finally make you worthy (Ep. 216)11:01 Why external achievement can't fix an internal problem11:30 What happens when you genuinely cannot fix the situation11:57 Jodi Scott's story: losing everything in 24 hours, through nothing she did wrong (Ep. 236)13:17 “This is how it is now”: acceptance as a starting point, not surrender14:00 Why trust and micromanaging cannot coexist14:38 Trusting someone means trusting their way, not just your way15:16 The five-question test: am I fixing, or am I leading?16:28 What true leadership actually looks like16:56 The song, and why it's a little ironic given today's topicThe Fixing-or-Leading TestRUN THIS BEFORE YOU JUMP IN TO SOLVE SOMETHING THAT ISN'T YOURS:1.

Bitcoin has a weird talent for sounding complicated even when the core idea is simple: moving value from one person to another without asking permission. We bring on Tyrone Ross Jr., CEO and co-founder of Turnqey Labs and principal of 401k Financial, to strip away the hype and explain what's really happening when you buy, hold, or send Bitcoin. His own “aha” moment comes from a five-minute demo that still feels like magic: a wallet download, a quick transfer, and a new way to think about money for anyone who has ever been underserved by traditional banking.We walk through the fundamentals in plain English: what a blockchain ledger is, why Bitcoin is “permissionless,” and how miners, nodes, blocks, and consensus work together to keep the network running 24/7. Tyrone also draws a clean line between Bitcoin and the broader world of crypto assets, including why the term “cryptocurrency” often misleads US investors and how stablecoins like USDC fit into real-world payments. Along the way, we touch on the deeper backdrop, from trust in institutions to how the current financial system settles transactions more slowly than most people realize.Then we get practical about investing. We talk time horizon, risk tolerance, and the real decision points: Bitcoin ETFs vs buying directly on platforms like Cash App or Coinbase, what self-custody and cold storage actually mean, and why taxes, cost basis, and performance reporting get messy fast. Tyrone flags an issue almost nobody plans for early enough: crypto estate planning, where missing keys or unclear instructions can turn real wealth into an unrecoverable loss. He also shares a simple “first buy” test using the cost of a dinner for two to learn without overextending.If you want a clearer framework for Bitcoin investing and crypto custody, hit play, share this with a friend who still thinks it's all jargon, and leave us a review with your biggest Bitcoin question so we can bring Tyrone back for round two.More about our Guest, Tyrone V.

A poll from Median Strategies roiled the Los Angeles mayoral race earlier this month, showing Mayor Karen Bass with an 11 point lead over challenger Nithya Raman. The results were cited by several media outlets, and were touted by the Bass campaign before the poll was exposed as fake. When contacted, Median Strategies posted a statement that their polling had been "a short-term social experiment examining how purported polling information could enter and spread through the political information ecosystem without independent verification." Social experiment or not, the poll did impact the race - at least in the short term - and certainly impacted election prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket. Political data expert Paul Mitchell joined us to talk about how junk polls, paid influencers and strategic gaming of the election markets can distort perceptions about a campaign.

My guests fly in from Spain and go home with one idea. You don't need the flight. I run a live workshop where I teach one idea you can put into your business over the next 30 to 90 days: ► Workshop waitlist: https://capitalism.com/bootcamp Juan Ramón and Carlos found my podcast in 2020, ran the playbook, and it still took them three full years to make their first million dollars. Then they tripled in a single year, and when I asked what changed, they told me they did less: they cut 80% of their products. They sell a $1,000 car screen out of Spain at 40% margins, they do about $500K a month, and most of this conversation is about how much they had to take away to get there.

Is your accounting practice built to scale—or positioned for a high-multiple exit? In this episode of Growing Your Firm, host David Cristello welcomes back Geoff Bruskin, founder and CEO of White Tiger Connections. Geoff pulls back the curtain on the current "white-hot" public accounting M&A market in 2026. From the rise of Fractional COO engagements to 7x+ EBITDA multiples, Jeff breaks down what buyers are looking for and why private equity (PE) plays fail 40% of the time when they ignore the human element of change management. Whether you're an Operations Manager looking to optimize workflow, a Managing Partner eyeing a future exit, or a CPA starting a firm, this episode is packed with real-world deal structures, go-to-market strategies, and tech implementation blueprints. In this episode, we explore: The Fractional COO Model: Why $1M to $20M accounting firms are hiring fractional executive leaders to build infrastructure for scale rather than overpaying for full-time roles. Inside a 7.4x EBITDA Deal: A deep dive into a $2.7M remote, subscription-based micro-platform firm asking $8M. The PE Spectrum (Successes vs. Failures): Why 30–40% of private equity acquisitions fail due to aggressive price hikes, poor software adoption, and staff turnover. The "Solutions Architect" Role: Why every growing practice needs an internal champion to bridge systems like CCH, TaxDome, Carbon, and CRM tools. Offensive vs. Defensive Strategy: How cross-selling Client Advisory Services (CAS) and wealth management can multiply your firm's enterprise value. Agentic AI & Claude CoWork: How modern leaders use AI agents to automate IT mapping, proposal scoping, and client deliverables. Key Deal Benchmarks Mentioned: Average Deal Multiple: 4x to 6x Adjusted EBITDA for traditional practices. Micro-Platform Multiples: Up to 7.4x+ for firms with 100% subscription models and balanced CAS/Tax integration. Solutions Architect Compensation: $60k to $150k annually (domestic or offshore) to eliminate technology friction.

The 60/40 portfolio has been the default retirement recommendation for so long that almost nobody stops to ask why it worked. In this episode, Brandon and Brantley go after one of the sacredest of sacred cows — and the problem, it turns out, sits almost entirely on the 40 side. Here's the uncomfortable part: the back-tests everybody trusts were built on a once-in-a-lifetime bond bull market. Ten-year Treasuries peaked near 15.84% in the early 1980s and fell for the next four decades. Buy a bond back then and you collected a huge coupon and watched the bond's value climb as rates dropped. That's the engine that made the 40 look like a quiet growth asset instead of ballast. And it's an engine that can't run again — because rates simply don't have another 1,500 basis points to fall. We want to be clear about what we're not saying. We're not saying bonds are dumb, or that fixed income is a bad idea. We're income guys — we like the coupon, and if you buy a bond for its income and that's what you want, great. What we're questioning is total-return thinking: the belief that the 40% in a passive bond fund will do for the next 40 years what it did for the last 40. Mathematically, it can't. So we ran an honest, admittedly academic comparison — and isolated the piece nobody isolates: not 60/40 versus whole life, but just the bonds versus just the whole life. What we get into: The lump-sum test. Start a retiree at $1M with a 4%-style withdrawal. Netting the same $40K of spendable income (bonds get taxed, whole life largely doesn't, so the gross numbers differ), the bond track limps to the finish around $818K. Whole life ends with more than double — north of $1.7M — plus a death benefit on top. The accumulation test. Save $21,389 a year for 25 years instead of starting with a pile. Even across that great bull-market window, the bond saver never reaches $1M, and after 30 years of drawing income is left with roughly $78K. The whole life policy lands in the same ~$1.7M neighborhood. Why whole life does what bonds were supposed to do. It's genuinely non-correlated — it doesn't track the stock market, and unlike a bond fund, its cash value doesn't get marked down when rates spike. Rising yields actually tend to push dividends up over time. The risk that keeps us up at night. From here, there's arguably more room for rates to rise than fall — and if they rise, bond values fall and don't bounce back the way stocks do. We've just lived a compressed version of that: 2022 was brutal, and this whole decade has been flat-to-negative for the total-bond crowd who weren't in it purely for income. We're not the only ones saying it. JP Morgan and GMO have both published sober forward outlooks for bonds and 60/40. And independent shops — Ernst & Young among them — keep landing on a similar read about whole life's role. None of them sell life insurance. We do, and we'll own that bias — but they don't, and they're drawing the same conclusion. The honest caveat we make on-air: this isn't "sell your bond fund tomorrow." It only works with a properly designed, accumulation-focused policy, and the math needs time — the crossover doesn't happen in year five. If someone just wants to buy income with a lump sum, bonds still have a seat. The frame is functional: equities for growth, whole life for the stable, non-correlated bucket bonds used to fill. There's a lot of numbers in this one, so we'd point you to the written post on the blog to see the full ledger. Here's the post written with all the numbers: Bonds vs Whole Life: Rebuilding the 60/40 Retirement Plan Sitting on a life insurance illustration — or a policy you already own — and not sure it's actually doing its job? Don't let ChatGPT be the last word on it; it'll hand you a confident opinion that's often just the "whole life is a rip-off" line scraped off the internet. Send us the illustration, or just a bit about your situation and what AI (or your advisor) already told you, and we'll give you a straight, honest read — what's right, what's wrong, and whether it's actually a good fit for you.

Are you prepared for the complexities of a high-value retirement? In this episode of Allworth's Money Matters, Scott and Pat break down real-world case studies for a $3M+ retirement, specifically focusing on the math behind long-term care, the tax implications of early inheritances, and a powerful framework for tax efficiency known as the "3 C's." In this episode, Scott and Pat discuss: The Long-Term Care Dilemma: They analyze a $3.7M case study where the caller is retiring abroad. Does she actually need long-term care insurance, or can she "self-insure"? Scott and Pat explain the "elimination period" strategy that could save thousands in premiums. Managing Early Inheritances: Using a $3.3M case study, Scott and Pat explore the pros and cons of buying a home for your children. They discuss how to manage early inheritances without creating family "real estate wars" or triggering unnecessary IRA taxes. The "3 C's" Strategy: Allworth partner advisor Ben Abraham joins the show to reveal a strategy for maximizing tax efficiency by balancing stock concentration and charitable giving to fuel massive Roth Conversions.   Join Money Matters:  Get your most pressing financial questions answered by Allworth's co-founders Scott Hanson and Pat McClain.

For years, North Korean operatives have infiltrated crypto companies by posing as freelance developers, funneling stolen funds back to the regime. Laura Shin went undercover as a recruiter named "Sophie Wang" to interview one of them — a capable blockchain engineer tied to a $2.7M hack — and tested the one request known to shut these interviews down cold: say something negative about Kim Jong Un.

Eric Hansen is the founder and CEO of Burst Billing, a medical billing company on a mission to help nursing homes reclaim the Medicare Part B supply reimbursements they're owed and almost never collect. He got his start in senior care as a CNA before moving into portable x-ray and lab sales, where he saw firsthand how the system's "medicine by prophecy" approach — over-supplying to be safe — quietly drained facilities' already-thin margins. He walked away from a six-figure salary to bet that nine out of ten nursing homes were giving their profits away, and that he could win it back for them. In just two years, Burst Billing has grown to 17 states and recovered more than $1 million in reimbursements for its clients. Self-taught in AI with over 2,000 hours behind him, Eric has built a fleet of agents that keep his company lean — and he's refreshingly candid that his ultimate goal is to make Burst unnecessary by helping the entire industry collect these dollars on its own.Show Notes:00:00 — Introduction02:01 — Meet Eric Hansen: the bet that 9 of 10 nursing homes are giving profits away03:44 — From CNA to founder: how Eric got into senior care and spotted "medicine by prophecy"06:31 — Going all in: disproving the model, the weekend that changed everything, proving yourself wrong10:13 — On the naysayers: "You'll stop caring what others think when you realize how little they do"12:31 — What is a Part B supply?

In this episode, Craig Jeffery and Karthik Manimozhi of Eftsure discuss how AI is reshaping payment fraud and the controls treasury teams need to protect payment integrity without sacrificing efficiency. They examine the three core questions of how to ensure payments go to the right payee, at the right amount, and at the right time, along with the need for a control tower spanning AP, treasury, banks, and ERPs and payment rails. The conversation also explores agent oversight, AI-native workflows, continuous auditing, and opportunities to unlock working capital.

My friends across duck country, I ask you one question, are the duck done for? Are you willing to let duck populations fade into oblivion. We talk about the weather and how it affects duck migration a-lot on the FowlWeather Podcast, but we know one thing for sure, if ducks are never produced, it does not matter what the weather does, ducks that don't hatch can't come south each duck season.  We also know that ducks need wetlands to produce more ducks. But here we are, the USFWS for some reason isadvancing a proposal that could reduce the 1.7M acres of wetland easements that they hold. And remember these are wetland easements paid for with your Duck Stamp dollars, and as far as we can see, they may be gone in the coming years, wetlands possibly gone forever. With over half of the prairie pothole wetlands already gone and duck numbers struggling, we don't want to lose more acres. As noted on the FowlWeather social media posts and on this Monday mornings episode, we were working to get waterfowl experts on to dissect and help us learn about what is happening with FWS prairie pothole wetland easements and we aimed high because we have both Dr. Scott Stephens, Senior Director of Conservation Strategy and Dr. Mike Brasher, Senior Waterfowl Scientist with us tonight. Both of Ducks Unlimited, these men are passionate duck hunter-conservationists and we are honored to have them on the FowlWeather Podcast to help us learn about this important topic. The way I like to state it when people ask about this potential FWS policy change…… the FowlWeatherPodcast position and what we tell them is this “this all could be worse than bad”.

First Phosphate CEO John Passalacqua discusses how the recent small-cap volatility does not affect the fundamentals of First Phosphate due to the company's strong treasury. Passalacqua, a former trader and market maker, says geopolitical tensions and rate fears have driven a systemic selloff that often forces investors to sell winners, but he views it as a catharsis that flushes weak hands. He highlights First Phosphate's 24 to 36-month runway, citing over $30M cash in treasury plus access to a $16.7M Canadian government contribution and a recent $17.7M raise at C$2, totaling nearly $50M to reach feasibility (Q4-2026 or Q1-2027), permitting, and final investment decision. He updates on the OTCQX ADR (FPHOY) volume building and describes strong collaboration with local First Nations who are supportive. The company targets its Quebec high-purity phosphate mine producing in 2029 and is advancing plans for a purified phosphoric acid plant at Port Saguenay, with feasibility expected by. 00:00 Intro 00:39 Market Volatility View 02:23 Cash Runway Update 03:23 Why Shares Pulled Back 05:54 ADR Listing Explained 07:25 First Nations Partnerships 10:59 Community Chalet Concerns 12:19 Phosphoric Plant Plans 13:57 Feasibility Timeline 14:16 Wrap Up and Tickers Tickers: CSE: PHOS – FSE: KD0 – OTCQX: FRSPF – OTCQX-ADR: FPHOY Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor First Phosphate pays Mining Stock Education a United States dollar ten thousand per month coverage fee.

Nick Foster has been a Front Row Dads member since 2021. He's also the founder of Foster Financial, a husband to his high school sweetheart Carrie, and a dad to three kids. This week, Nick sits down with Jon to talk about what happens after you build the business. Nick spent 10 years building his CPA firm to $2.7 million and 13 employees. Then he stepped back and hit the question a lot of successful dads eventually face: now what? This conversation is about the first mountain (achievement, the grind, proving yourself) and the second mountain (giving, presence, being a good human), and what it actually looks like to make that shift while raising a family. Nick gets honest about a lot in this one. What you'll hear: → The wall with his teenage daughter and how he keeps showing up → Building a $2.7M business and the weight nobody talks about → Losing your identity when the business is no longer the target → The little brother from Big Brothers Big Sisters who changed his life → What actually makes his marriage work after 18 years → The thing his wife does that triggers him (and how he's learning to handle it) → Teaching kids about money, including the Roth IRA move most parents miss → The birthday tradition that makes him cry every time → From atheist to a man of faith If you've been climbing hard and quietly wondering whether it's the right mountain, this one is worth your time.
