In this week's episode, Amrit interviews Ben Irvine and Simon Wade, who have come together to build an intentional and organic community in Eltham, a beautiful place in the heart of Victoria, Melbourne.Ben, Simon and Amrit talk about the project, their vision and how they are going to manage the power dynamics and challenges that pop up, what inspired them to go on this journey and the resources that guide them, and the importance of eating together. They also talk about community and why it is so important to live life outside the paradigm of what we all call normal and live differently. After watching pioneer architect Charles Durrett's presentation on cohousing and doing a lot of research, Ben decided he wanted to build a community far away from isolation. A village where he could live together with his loved ones and others in community creating close bonds. A village where the members could feel free to have their own beliefs, ways of being and ways of relating to the community. With this idea in mind and having partnered with a developer, Ben got in touch with Simon to be his left hand. Simon, in total agreement with this vision, agreed to be part of this new project. This project consists of the development of 26 private dwellings for 40 adults and following Charles Durrett's Danish model and book “Creating Cohousing'' where he describes the whole concept. This successful model lays emphasis on community, sustainability, village living, shared resources, affordability and eating together. The village is not founded on ideology. From a business point of view, Simon refers to it as a decentralized movement with bottom-up decision making instead of top-down hierarchies of demand and control. They talk about agreements and self management but with the relational space as the centre. They gather frequently in circles to talk and move forward. Every meeting starts by sharing a circle and eating together. Amrit refers to it as “breaking bread together”. These are the most important factors for healthy and successful community cohesion, especially when facing power dynamics. This relational space helps everyone come into resonance with each other and have a harmonious relationship, which allows new ideas to arise and decision making easier. Ben believes community feels like something we have to learn how to do again. Simon believes it is about embracing the fact that we live in a relationship with the earth on which we stand, with our family, friends and loved ones and it is our job to turn this relational space into a beautiful one. They share the same vision. In today's society, there is a lack of community they would like around them. Every family lives in their own atomic unit often disconnected from the people around them facing adversity and doing things by themselves. These guys want to reimagine life as a place where people can learn from each other and give support and encouragement. A place where people connect and thrive at all stages of life, where kids don't need to rely only on parents and can thrive growing up with community and other kids as well and a place where the elder's don't have to live alone any more.

Well it was unavoidable, Hoagie Mouth nation. We kinda had it out about the Sixers. About Ben. About Joel. About Tobi. About Doc. All of it. Sure, none of us have the answers about where to go from here. We give you our emotional takes, with some facts baked in. And we try to imagine a path forward. And we do get some spirited live look-ins from Mike L and his son, who went to game 7 in person with the highest of hopes. Oh, we do also touch on another disappointing team currently playing, the Phillies. To wrap it up, we challenge each other to find out at least one factoid about the Philadelphia Union. We understand they are some type of professional sports team, playing a game that we've heard of before. Also, Jeff forgot to turn on his fancy snowball mic. What a dick.

Link to Facebook Event: Miracle Mopar Day Transcript Intro John Haggard: 00:02 Welcome to the Miracle Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram podcast, where each week you’ll learn the best ways to purchase lease service and maintain, accessorize and sell your vehicle for the highest resale value possible, when you’re ready to do it. I’m your host John Haggard and throughout each month right here we’ll have different team members join us from Miracle to bring you tips you can use and you’ll also see a transcript of each podcast for quick reference. On this podcast, we’re speaking with Ben Harvey. He’s the Parts Manager at Miracle Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. Hey Ben, welcome to the podcast. Ben Harvey: 00:35 Hi, thanks for having me. About Ben and How He Ended Up in Nashville John Haggard: 00:36 Glad to have you here. We do understand there’s a special event coming up, which we are going to be talking about for this Sunday, September 22 but before we get to that, we always like to learn a little bit about the people behind the scenes. Tell us a little bit about you, like where did you grow up, for example? Ben Harvey: 00:50 I grew up in a little town called Port St. John, Florida. If you don’t know where that is, that’s a little bit about 20 minutes east of our Orlando, Florida. So I basically tell people, if you take Orlando, go about 20 minutes from Disney world and you’re right there in my hometown. John Haggard: 01:08 All right. 20 away. 20 minutes away. And so how long have you been up in this area? Ben Harvey: 01:13 I’ve been here two years. John Haggard: 01:15 Two years. Okay. So what got you to Nashville? Ben Harvey: 01:17 Miracle Chrysler got me to Nashville. John Haggard: 01:19 All right. So they were searching around and of all the people throughout the US and they found you? Ben Harvey: 01:24 Yep. I I used to work with the, our service director, Robert Fleites. He talked to me and offered me you know, a job and I said, why not? You know, I’d love to, I’d love to check out Tennessee. And he told me how great Tim Galvin was. So I decided to move up here. John Haggard: 01:39 You know, sometimes jobs really are about relationships, aren’t they? I mean, it beats going onto the Internet and competing with, you know, 5,000 people with resumes. Sometimes. It really is who you know and not what you know. Ben Harvey: 01:50 Yes sir. I 100% agree. John Haggard: 01:51 But I bet you know a lot. So I guess you went to High School in Florida as well? Ben Harvey: 01:58 Yep. I went to Space Coast High School. John Haggard: 02:00 Yeah. So was there anything special about that school in terms of you know, space industry or, cause sometimes Florida is known for high tech and space industry and just wondered about that. Ben Harvey: 02:11 Oh, we just had a very good community basis about that high school. It was that you felt like you’re in a big family rather than actually go into school. John Haggard: 02:18 Didn’t specialize in anything? Ben Harvey: 02:20 No Sir. John Haggard: 02:21 Okay. So do you have family in this area as well Ben? Ben Harvey: 02:25 No, I do not. All my family’s back in my home town. Port St John. John Haggard: 02:29 All right. Well you have a free vacation to Florida anytime you go, don’t you? Ben Harvey: 02:33 I do, yes, I do. John Haggard: 02:35 A lot of people that would love to have that for sure. When would you got out of high school? Did you go onto college or did you elect to go to work early? How did you do that? Ben Harvey: 02:44 No Sir. I did not attend to college. My mom was actually a regional manager for the Winn-Dixie, which is a local grocery store down there. John Haggard: 02:52 Yeah. Ben Harvey: 02:53 I went ahead and just became a bag boy at Winn Dixie for about two years. Favorite Thing to Do in Gallatin John Haggard: 02:58 Right. So what do you like to do now in in the Gallatin, Nashville area on your time off? Ben Harvey: 03:05 We are big travel bugs. Me and my wife we love to travel out. That’s why we chose Nashville as one of our moving places because you have so many cities right around you. You have the St Louis, Chicago, you know, Chattanooga is right down the street. Obviously Gatlinburg, you have a lot of beautiful areas just right around this Tennessee area. John Haggard: 03:24 Yeah. What do you think is the most exciting city so far that you all have explored. Ben Harvey: 03:29 So far? I think our favorite has been Cincinnati. Cincinnati was absolutely incredible driving wise. So it’s a short trip, four hours there, four hours back, a great city just to go around at great nightlife. John Haggard: 03:43 Yeah. So, you know, they call it Cincy. I think some of the locals do. So what was the most exciting thing you all did there. Ben Harvey: 03:49 We actually caught a baseball game. We are huge baseball fans, so we caught a Cincinnati reds game. We had a great time at that baseball game. What Ben Does On His Time Off John Haggard: 03:58 Okay. So any favorite hobbies when you’re not traveling on your days off? Ben Harvey: 04:02 I’m also an avid soccer player. I’ve been playing soccer for about 24 years. So I try, I joined multiple men’s league’s there. I try to play as much as I can. John Haggard: 04:12 Did you have aspirations in high school? Thinking about maybe I will become a professional soccer player. Ben Harvey: 04:19 I did, I did. It just did not work out for me. John Haggard: 04:22 Well, I wasn’t sports oriented either, so don’t feel bad. One Thing That Most People Don’t Know About You (Hint: Cats) John Haggard: 04:26 Hey, by the way, before we talk about what’s coming up this weekend, what’s the one thing, Ben, that you would say most people don’t know about you and they would be surprised to learn? Ben Harvey: 04:37 I’m a huge cat person. Ha. I’m kind of, you know, when you look at me, you see as a kinda guy with a beard a little bit burley and everything, but I actually have two wonderful cats that means the world to me. So now that’s very interesting when people, when I tell people that. John Haggard: 04:54 Yes so are these the leopard types that you have in the cage, or are you talking about house cats? Ben Harvey: 04:59 Just house cats. Ha! John Haggard: 04:59 Yeah. Just wanted to check on that. How about any favorite books or movies that are your favorites? Ben Harvey: 05:06 Like I said, not a big movie buff or kind of a reader. Like I said, we mainly spend our time traveling, not a whole lot of TV or reading in our house. John Haggard: 05:16 All right. And since you have been here, you know, people do like to go out and eat. Have you found any favorite restaurants you like? Ben Harvey: 05:23 I would, I would say my wife and I, our favorite restaurant was probably gonna be Kayne Prime Steak House in Nashville, Tennessee. How Ben Got Into The Car Business John Haggard: 05:31 All right. All right. So how did you get into the car business? I mean, what was it, you woke up one day and you said, hey, you know, I think I want to do this. Ben Harvey: 05:38 Well, actually I’ve grown around, I’ve grown up around cars my whole life. My Dad’s kind of instilled it in my brain. Like I said, I was a bagger at Winn Dixie and my aunt actually, she’s still there to the day, the car dealership. I originally got into business with his Boniface-Hiers Chrysler. She offered me a, a parts driver job and I thought I was a big shot, you know, wore the Mopar uniform, everything like that. and that’s how I actually got in the car business. It started out as a parts driver. John Haggard: 06:08 Alright, so you went from bag boy at Winn-Dixie to parts driver? Ben Harvey: 06:13 Yes, sir. What Does a Typical Day Look Like in the Parts Department? John Haggard: 06:14 All right. So as you look at that now as Parts Manager, what does your typical day look like at Miracle. Ben Harvey: 06:19 Oh, making sure every single piece is accounted for. I make sure my techs are taken care of. I make sure you know, my wholesale customers are my number one priority. You know, it’s just not their customer. It’s our customer as well. And I know if I keep these guys working you know, keep parts going in and out that means more customers are getting their cars back. So that’s what, that’s the most important thing to me. John Haggard: 06:44 All right. And really timely repairs. So it’s not like, well, you know, the part will be in here next week if you can do without your car for five days. Right. Ben Harvey: 06:50 Exactly. Exactly. The main goal to me is to get the, get the car back to the customer. John Haggard: 06:55 All right. Well, you know, there are two options as we understand it, the way people can buy today for repairs, they can get the OEM, the original equipment manufacturer, the Mopar part, or in some cases aftermarket parts for repairs. You do both of those. Do you source both? Ben Harvey: 07:11 Yes sir. We do both of them here. We do all of them. We do a lot of aftermarket accessories as well on our Jeeps and lift kits and stuff like that. We tend to push the OEM because that’s where we are. OEM I think is just a lot better quality. You get a better warranty out of it as well. And I believe as personal experience, you’re not going to buy, you know, three or four of them. When you buy an OEM part, you’re going to buy the one and not have the issue. John Haggard: 07:35 Okay. So That’s interesting. You won’t buy three or four. So you, the OEM part better warranty lasts longer. So you won’t have to replace the part continually or on a regular basis, you’re saying? Ben Harvey: 07:45 Yes sir. Miracle Mopar Day John Haggard: 07:46 Gotcha. So let’s go to the event this weekend called Miracle Mopar Day at Miracle Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Gallatin. And first off, what is meant for folks who don’t know by the word Mopar. Ben Harvey: 07:58 Mopar is anything car related that you have Dodge. We want to see everything from old classics, your old Barracudas, your old Dodge Darts, your old Super Bees, everything like that. And we also want to see all the new generation. We want to see all the Hellcats, we want to see all the Chargers and you know, the Challengers. We want to see everything. A lot of people put pride in their cars and we want to see exactly what it’s going to be, a big car show. So that’s what we’re going to have. John Haggard: 08:26 So it’s going to be there on the lot at Miracle Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, is that right? Ben Harvey: 08:31 Yes sir. John Haggard: 08:32 Okay. Alright. And it’s Sunday begins at 1:00 PM, and this is something you do annually. Ben Harvey: 08:37 We’re going to start doing it annually. We have, we are the number one sponsor for Jeeps and Wrenches. We did it for a Jeeps and Wrenches group. We had one here and we do that annually. Now we are going to do a Mopar one annually. This is going to be our first one. We’re testing the waters and we want to see that, what the communities like out there. John Haggard: 08:54 All right, so who up with this idea? Ben Harvey: 08:57 It’d be me. And our salesman, Brad Billingsley. John Haggard: 09:00 Okay. All right. So did you guys, you said, so in other words, what you’re doing, you’re inviting everyone to bring out their vehicle, kind of like put it on display. Ben Harvey: 09:09 Yep. John Haggard: 09:09 Gotcha. And, am I reading here properly… prizes to be given away. Ben Harvey: 09:14 We’ll be doing a couple of giveaways. We’ll be doing a raffle. We’ll have some hamburgers and hotdogs to give out as well. I mean it’s just going to be a great day. John Haggard: 09:23 Now you doing the cooking on the food? Ben Harvey: 09:25 I am not doing the cooking. John Haggard: 09:26 All right. Ha Ben Harvey: 09:27 I’ll be doing the socializing and looking at all these beautiful cars that people bring. John Haggard: 09:31 All right. So who do you got there that’s doing the cooking? Ben Harvey: 09:33 One of our porters will be doing the cooking. One Last Thing John Haggard: 09:36 All right, sounds good. Well, hey, before we go, Ben, is there anything that I did not ask you that people should know either about Miracle, Mopar Day, this Sunday or anything at all about parts? And you know, the purchase of parts. Is anything that we left out that you would want folks to know? Ben Harvey: 09:52 I just want people to know, we’re open to anything here we can. Like I said, we can do anything that you would like us to do. We are a full range on accessories. We can do trucks, Jeeps, cars, anything you want, we can go ahead and get it taken care of. You know, we’re here from 7:30 to 6:00 Monday through Friday, and then we’re also here from 8:00 to 3:00 on Saturday.

Ben Brown has a coaching business that helps highly driven men improve their energy and body composition and help them create a balance between work and home life. Ben is also the owner of Complete Essentials, an essential amino acid product which was born out of his own health issues. Ben talks to your host Blake Bowman about the connection between nutrition, lifestyle, and symptoms.   Episode Highlights: How Ben discovered what could heal his gastrointestinal inflammation naturally. The primary area of Ben’s business is nutrition coaching. H. Pilori is the bacteria that causes stomach ulcers and a high percentage of people have it. The lining of the gut can be deteriorated through stress, food quality, and more. The process Ben goes through to help people define their optimal diet. The most impactful thing coaches can do is to help people be more in tune with their body. Why eating ancestrally makes a lot of sense and is a good jumping off point. Eating seasonally and locally is another great way to start. Why certain diets give your gut time to regenerate and repair. There’s no one right way to eat, we have to understand biochemical individuality. If you’re serious about taking control of your health then you’ll have to consider big life changes. How to use things like hydrochloric acid effectively without becoming dependant on them. If you’re just starting out, you need digestive support. The natural things people can do to improve their digestive enzymes: Slow down and chew your food. Drink a lot of water, but not while you’re eating. There’s a reason our stomach is such an acidic environment and it should be that way. Ben’s thoughts on digestive bitters and bitter herbs. The role of ox bile in your health after having your gall bladder removed. About Ben’s product Complete Essentials and why it’s an all-in-one workout product. The body can function without carbohydrates but it cannot function for any period of time without essential amino acids. The best course of action is to be getting enough protein in throughout the day through real food. Many supplements are in pill form, but that’s not very conducive to workouts. When you take the Complete Essentials powder it’s instantly absorbed into the bloodstream. With essential amino acids, even people who have compromised digestion can benefit. Why it’s easier to gain fat as you get older. Essential amino acids provide mineral support without any caffeine or artificial sweeteners.   3 Key Points: Gut health and optimal digestion should be the primary focus when there is poor health.

Jessica Danes is a force for women in Motor Sports. A granddaughter of one of the founding members of the British SAS and daughter of Roland Dane, Jess is forging her own career and ignoring all doubters and critics. Her first foray into motorsports was working in the Triple Eight Race Engineering Team gear box shop as a sub-assembly mechanic! She was acutely aware that she was building the brakes that would need to make a V8 supercar stop on a dime. Enjoying being out of her comfort zone, Jess then moved into a marketing, media and PR role in the Red Bull Holden Racing Team/ Triple 8 Race Engineering. She talks how she managed negativity on social media. Jess talks about the business of motorsports and her commercial role. The franchise, the team and its leadership. She gives fascinating insights into the role of drivers and other technical experts in the ‘team's leadership'. Jess talks about gender disparity - and why it exists in motor sports - and more broadly - and indeed what she says makes great practical sense. Parents and teachers take note! Not being content with her current commercial role in Triple Eight she is also the Chairperson of the Australian Women in Motor Sport Commission, which has been designed to provide a voice for women in motorsport. And not being content with all that- Jess is also studying law! An amazing human being- Jess is breaking all stereotypes and ignoring everything except high performance – Jess's insights in this episode are inspiring. She coins a phrase when asked about her myriad of challenges- ‘I don't think there was ever anything I thought I couldn't do'.  And we will simply leave you with that!     Intelligence Summary (INTSUM) About Red Bull Holden Racing: http://www.redbullholdenracing.com/team/ From 08:20- About Jess's Grandfathers: John Graham: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Graham_(British_Army_officer,_born_1923) And John Graham Interviewed by the Imperial War Museum: https://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/object/80008134 David Dane: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Dane 11:00- Operation Bulbasket by Paul McCue: https://www.worldofbooks.com/en-au/books/paul-mccue/sas-operation-bulbasket/GOR003586916?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI76PK5rfU4gIVQYqPCh22zACxEAQYASABEgI-V_D_BwE From 16:00- About Roland Dane (RD): http://www.redbullholdenracing.com/department/roland-dane/ 19:25.

DON'T LET "POTENTIAL" BE WRITTEN ON YOUR TOMBSTONE. About ten years ago when I was playing professional football, I got injured. I ended up on my sister’s couch. I felt bad for myself and thought that there should be a way for people like me to get help. Then I realized- what if I could solve this problem? It was that experience that led me into the work I do today. One of the reasons I don’t follow politics is because I want to focus on overcoming our own challenges. That’s why I’m so interested in my guest on today’s episode of The School of Greatness: Ben Shapiro. Ben Shapiro is editor-in-chief of The Daily Wire and host of "The Ben Shapiro Show," the top conservative podcast in the nation. Ben is the New York Times bestselling author of seven nonfiction books and is constantly featured on major newspapers and websites. Ben believes that people need to look within when they have a problem. He’s more interested in root values than debating specific issues. He ruffles a lot of feathers and I don’t agree with everything he says, but I still think you’re going to enjoy this one. So get ready to learn about going from victimhood to a powerful mindset on Episode 742. Some Questions I Ask: Why are you so passionate about your message?
