Marc Copani, a former professional wrestler who goes as Muhammad Hassan, is my following guest. Mr. Copani introduced Muhammad Hassan, one of the most ferocious antagonists in WWE history, in 2004. He was an American of Arabic descent who would praise Allah and condemn the United States for the 9/11 tragedy. Copani's controversial reputation led to him working with superstars like The Undertaker and Hulk Hogan. He's on my show because, after being released in 2005, he went into teaching, became an assistant principal, and is currently working as an HR specialist for Fulton's School District in New York. This is inspiring, in my opinion. In order to welcome Marc Copani, also known as Muhammad Hassan, to Autism Rocks and Rolls, I would want your help.

The Missing Piece in Digital Ministry: Churches Skip Strategy Between Theology and PracticeIn the final episode of our mini-series on Communications, Joel, Digital Pastor at Soul Revival Church, shares at the inaugural Virtual Church Assist Conference how Soul Revival's digital ministry has grown over the last five years—and the key factor behind it: a consistent and solid ministry framework.He talks about how Soul Revival's Theology → Strategy → Practice framework that has allowed he and the team to produce podcasts, coordinate content, and engage communities online in a meaningful way. The piece many churches and ministries miss is a well thought out, well articulated strategy—most skip straight from Theology to Practice, which can limit impact and effectiveness.Joel walks through how to connect digital efforts with core biblical convictions, build intergenerational relationships, and create authentic, engaging content—all guided by a clear strategy. Whether you're looking to strengthen your church's online presence or rethink how ministry fits together from Theology to Practice, this talk provides practical insights and ideas to implement immediately.Let us know: “How does your ministry framework connect your theology to the practice of serving your community?”0:00 – Welcome & Introduction1:20 – Thanks to Sam & VCA, first-time speaking, intention of the talk3:10 – About Joel & Soul Revival Church4:30 – Background in youth ministry, joining staff in 20205:50 – Family & personal context7:00 – Digital Ministry: Early Years & COVID7:40 – Pre-recording podcasts & early content9:10 – Streaming all six gatherings during first lockdown10:50 – Adapting to podcast-style format in second lockdown12:30 – Week Away Online: experimenting with virtual ministry14:20 – Key lessons learned from early experimentation16:00 – Iterative Approach to Branding & Digital Content16:40 – Chip Lunch Podcast evolution & rebrand18:20 – Apparel lines & website relaunch as part of ministry practice20:00 – Ministry Framework Overview20:30 – Theology → Strategy → Practice explained22:10 – Why Strategy is often missing23:30 – Concrete example: Soul Revival Church strategy25:00 – Relational Distinctives & Intergenerational Ministry25:40 – Friendship, low-key long-term relational focus27:20 – Intergenerational gatherings & inclusivity29:00 – Ministry Teams, Meals & Third Space Community29:40 – Teams prevent burnout & encourage collaboration31:10 – Meals as relational practice32:30 – Third space community & welcoming new people34:00 – Practice of Digital Ministry34:30 – External-to-internal continuum35:40 – Providing value: authentic, insightful, entertaining content37:10 – Example: Chip Lunch Podcast storytelling & engagement39:00 – Questions to Guide Your Ministry39:30 – Theology: How Jesus changes ministry40:20 – Strategy: Aligning practice with convictions41:10 – Practice: Flexibility & experimentation42:00 – Practical Tips & Closing Thoughts42:30 – “What rockets could you blow up?” – experimentation43:20 – Encouragement to work on ministry, not just in it44:00 – Thanks & conclusion

Three weeks ago, we had a very special Old Masters Series show: The Art of War, Copywriting Edition. But we only covered half the book, so that made the previous episode Part 1. Today we cover the rest of the book, Chapters 7 through 13. And that makes today Part 2. Here's what you need to know: The Art of War was written by Sun Tzu (SOOON-tzeh) about 2500 years ago, as a treatise on military strategy. The Art of War reaches far beyond military warfare, however. Business overachievers like Elon Musk and Mark Benioff, founder of salesforce, are among many who have praised this book. That's because the principles in this book are universal and very powerful in any situation where you're in a struggle–and getting people to buy from the written word certainly counts as a struggle. Today you'll see exactly how Sun Tzu's principles, when applied to copy, can help you sharpen your copy, position your offers better, and persuade prospects more naturally. I've gotta tell you, I was surprised when I was preparing this how easily his principles can be applied to copy. Now, there's a reason The Art of War has lasted for more than two thousand years. It's not just because people like reading about swords and spears. It's because the way Sun Tzu thought about winning applies anywhere there's competition — whether it's two armies on a field, two companies in a market… or you, sitting at a keyboard, trying to out-sell the other guy. When you're writing copy, you're not just “putting words together.” You're maneuvering. Positioning. Adapting. Watching for the right moment to strike. If you've ever had a great piece of copy flop… or a headline you loved get ignored… or a competitor suddenly steal your customers… …you've felt the same frustration a general feels when the plan falls apart halfway through the battle. Sun Tzu didn't leave that to chance. He studied how to win before the fight began — and how to keep control until the very last move. Today, we're going to tap into the last seven chapters of his book. These are the chapters about keeping your opponent guessing… matching your tactics to the exact ground you're on… knowing when to press hard and when to pull back… and gathering the kind of intelligence that lets you win before the other side knows what happened.

Marcus welcomes Rob Israch, President of Tipalti – a late-stage, fast-growth SaaS company in the finance sector. Rob shares his extensive experience from NetSuite, Intuit, and GE, detailing his unique journey from marketing to president, and the "fun ups and downs and pitfalls" of scaling a global business. The discussion delves into the critical aspects of building and leading a company through various growth phases, adapting to market changes, fostering effective communication, and understanding what truly drives sustainable success in a rapidly evolving economic landscape. Key Discussion Points: From Marketer to President Rob's background as a marketer and his career trajectory from CMO to President at Tipalti. The importance of embracing "grey space" – taking on challenges beyond one's immediate job scope and being willing to learn. Why getting results, being humble, and executing, even on "unsexy things," are crucial for career advancement. Advice for CMOs Aspiring to Leadership The necessity for marketers to be analytical, capable of marrying creativity with metrics, and speaking the language of finance and the board. Avoiding sounding "too much like a marketer" by focusing on truth-finding and problem-solving with numbers, rather than just storytelling. The Evolution of a Scaled Business: Tipalti's Journey Insights into Tipalti's growth from 25 employees to over 1,000 in 11 years. Changes in hiring, talent acquisition, and leadership skills needed at different stages of growth. The increasing importance of communication and alignment as a company scales. The Critical Role of Middle Management The immense impact of a strong middle management layer on a successful operation. The challenge of selecting the right leaders, maintaining a high bar, and knowing when to promote from within versus bringing in outside talent. Detecting leaders who "talk a good game but can't actually get results". Operating Rhythms and Communication at Scale The necessity of formalising company values and mission as a business grows, moving past initial cynicism. Examples of operating rhythms, including quarterly leadership offsites, cross-functional business leader meetings, and CEO roundtables. The importance of one-to-one conversations and cross-functional SWAT teams to break down silos in larger organisations. Detecting Hidden Issues (Rot Under the Floorboards) Using a balanced scorecard as a metric system to avoid people gaming a single goal and to gain comprehensive insights. The value of early indicators and actively listening to employees and customers to uncover problems not captured by metrics. What Investors Should Ask (But Rarely Do) The need for investors to dig deeper into a company's identity, target market segments, and differentiators to understand the "why" behind the metrics. Dangers of Misguided Scaling Assumptions The common mistake of assuming that simply hiring "top talent" from prestigious backgrounds will solve all issues, without considering their fit and ability to adapt and execute at all levels. The continuous need for leaders to adapt and evolve every six months as the business changes. Holistic Business Growth vs. Deal Momentum Theatre Protecting against "deal momentum theatre" where new wins are celebrated, but cash flow, retention, and loyalty lag. The shift towards a healthy, holistic approach with happy, advocating customers as the most profitable way to grow, even if it feels uncomfortable. How Tipalti re-emphasised customer centricity through values, committees, and new metrics when growth challenged earlier informal approaches. Regrets in Institutionalising Processes Regretting a period of too much focus on new business conversion at the expense of the entire customer lifecycle. The tricky balance between investing in product vision and addressing immediate customer needs. Balancing Investor Pressure with SaaS Reinvestment The importance of a smart LTV to CAC model to balance short-term gains with long-term sustainability and profitability. LTV to CAC as a filter that guides investment decisions and helps communicate strategy to investors. Rethinking Customer Health: NPS vs. Net Value Score Rob's advocacy for NPS as a humbling and valuable metric for customer-centric culture, though acknowledging its limitations in directly linking to business results and long-term value. Marcus introduces his concept of a Net Value Score which ties customer outcomes directly to revenue retention and margin for a more honest and predictable measure of future relationship value. Loyalty as the North Star The distinction between renewal, repeat purchases, and customer loyalty. Loyalty as the ultimate aspiration for a business, which naturally drives the other two, and serves as a vital "North Star" for employee motivation. Systematising Referrals and Customer Expansion (GoToBase) Using data science and data mining to correlate customer behaviors with LTV to CAC, expansion rates, and product usage. The observation that customer expansion and "GoToBase" motions are often immature in many organisations, with a heavy focus on new logos. The argument that referrals should be a systematised engine, not an accident, and that happy customers are the foundation. Adapting to the New Economic Reality and the Power of Trust The shift from an environment of cheap money and growth at all costs to one demanding profitability and sustainable metrics. The need for go-to-market leadership to adapt or be replaced, with increased importance of customer success, account management, and marketing/channel functions. In an age of decreasing trust due to AI and media, companies that build around trust within their customer and partner base will thrive, making trust a powerful, measurable "operating system" and "North Star". Rob's Best Mistake: Being naive and taking chances in "grey spaces," which doesn't always work out but consistently leads to valuable learning and experience.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
In this solo episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I'm talking directly to you, the fathers, about stepping up as school is back in session. Life gets busier with drop-offs, homework, sports, and late-night routines, but this season also gives us new opportunities to lead and connect with our families in meaningful ways. I share three powerful strategies for creating deeper bonds at home: owning one routine with your kids, maximizing “connection cues” during daily transitions, and holding a weekly huddle with your wife to reduce stress and strengthen your marriage. If you're feeling overwhelmed by the chaos of the school year, this episode will help you find clarity, lead intentionally, and make sure your family thrives instead of drifts. TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcome to the Dad Edge movement and back-to-school chaos [1:02] - Kids' homework struggles and funny math frustrations [2:21] - A message for kids listening in the car: your dad loves you deeply [3:44] - Why most dads want to succeed—not fail—in fatherhood [4:26] - Transitioning from summer to school as a leadership opportunity [5:21] - Balancing school, sports, homework, and family commitments [6:20] - Reflections on August episodes with Jessica and the power of marriage conversations [7:53] - Strategy #1: Own one routine (breakfast, bedtime, school prep, homework help) [9:32] - Reducing invisible labor for your wife by owning key tasks [10:23] - Why bedtime routines are gold for connection (even if you're exhausted) [11:31] - Asking open-ended questions that spark real conversations [12:57] - Adapting routines for different kids' personalities and needs [14:41] - Bedtime as a place of safety, vulnerability, and connection [15:21] - Strategy #2: Connection cues in car rides, drop-offs, and pickups [16:18] - Side-by-side conversations and the power of turning off the radio [17:05] - Strategy #3: Weekly huddle with your wife (planning + intimacy) [18:19] - Reducing stress by clarifying who owns which tasks at home [19:39] - Using weekly huddles as both a planning and intimacy tool [20:31] - Free weekly huddle resource (coming soon) [20:53] - Tools for protecting kids online with Bark (sponsor) [21:52] - Closing encouragement and reminder of available resources 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Own One Routine Whether it's bedtime, breakfast, or homework, fathers who fully own one routine lighten their wife's mental load while deepening connection with their kids. 2. Bedtime Is Golden Even when you're exhausted, bedtime is a unique opportunity for authenticity and safety. One open-ended question can spark conversations that matter. 3. Connection Cues Matter Car rides, drop-offs, and side-by-side moments are often when kids open up most. Turning off the radio and asking thoughtful questions makes a difference. 4. Weekly Huddles Reduce Stress A short check-in with your wife about what's working, what's draining, and what needs adjusting creates alignment and strengthens intimacy. 5. Leadership Is About Presence, Not Perfection You don't need to do everything—you just need to be intentional with what you choose to own. Presence, clarity, and consistency are what families need most.

It Gets Late Early: Career Tips for Tech Employees in Midlife and Beyond
Marketers love chasing Gen Z. But here's the trillions-of-dollars blind spot:Gen X and Boomers control nearly 70% of U.S. disposable income and outspend younger generations in nearly every major category — alcohol, beauty, travel, finance, and more.So why are brands still ignoring them?In this episode, I sit down with Brent Rivard, founder and CEO of Geezer Creative, an agency built on a radical idea: the “forgotten generation” isn't just relevant — they're the growth engine brands are missing.We unpack how the ad industry's obsession with youth culture has aged itself out of opportunity, what's at stake for marketers, and how Gen X and Boomers are reshaping the creative economy.You'll also hear shocking stats about how the industry treats its veterans, the challenges older professionals face in a rapidly evolving gig economy, and why AI is becoming a make-or-break skill for creative professionals of every generation.Because if brands keep underestimating us, that's on them. But if we underestimate ourselves? That's on us.The creative economy is shifting fast — from AI to the rise of the gig economy — and this conversation will give you a fresh (and dare I say slightly rebellious?) perspective on where your experience fits next.“The last thing the world needed was another ad agency, so we opened one. But we didn't just open one–we opened one that has a point of view.” ~ Brent RivardIn This Episode:-Ageism in the advertising industry-Why Gen X consumers are crucial for marketing success-Geezer Creative's approach to Gen X-centered marketing-The advantage of intergenerational marketing teams-Adapting to the gig economy in the creative space-Shifting client priorities and how agencies can adapt-AI and its impact on the creative industry-Encouraging older professionals to embrace new opportunities-Creative solutions for dealing with layoffs and market shiftsAnd much more!Resources:-Free Guide to LinkedIn Job Hunting for the 40+ Crew - https://www.itgetslateearly.com/job-guide-The Gen X Career Meltdown - https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/03/28/style/gen-x-creative-work.htmlConnect with Brent Rivard and Geezer Creative:-Brent Rivard LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brent-rivard-7ba8b37/-Geezer Creative LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/geezer-creative/-Website: https://www.geezercreative.com/Connect with Maureen Clough:-LinkedIn: maureenwclough - https://www.linkedin.com/in/maureenwclough/-Website: itgetslateearly.com - https://www.itgetslateearly.com/-Instagram:

Your dopamine system is being hijacked every day, and the way to reclaim it might surprise you. This episode reveals how pain, pleasure, and addiction are wired in your brain, and how to use that knowledge for real brain optimization, resilience, and longevity. You'll discover why your dopamine levels control motivation, focus, mood, and even cravings—and the science-backed strategies that reset your neuroplasticity, metabolism, and reward system. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Anna Lembke, Stanford psychiatrist and bestselling author of Dopamine Nation. She is one of the world's leading experts on addiction, compulsive behavior, and the neuroscience of reward pathways. With decades of clinical work and groundbreaking research, she explains why dopamine has become the modern lens for understanding desire, distraction, and dysfunction—and how we can hack it to upgrade human performance. They break down how dopamine drives addiction, why pain can reset your reward system, and how simple practices like fasting, cold therapy, and supplements affect your brain chemistry. You'll learn how nicotine, GLP-1 drugs, and even nootropics alter dopamine sensitivity, and why overstimulation from social media, pornography, and ultra-processed food is creating an epidemic of anhedonia. The conversation also covers how functional medicine and biohacking can protect your mitochondria, restore your natural dopamine balance, and make your brain more resilient. You'll Learn: • Why dopamine itself is not addictive—and what really drives addiction • How pain, hormesis, and “dopamine fasting” can reset your reward system • Why social media and digital overstimulation create chronic dopamine deficit states • The role of GLP-1 drugs, nicotine, psychedelics, and other substances in rewiring dopamine • How functional medicine and supplements help restore dopamine balance • The connection between dopamine, mitochondria, fasting, cold therapy, and longevity • Why radical honesty and self-binding are powerful anti-addiction hacks This is essential listening for anyone serious about hacking dopamine for better focus, sleep optimization, metabolism, and long-term brain health.
