Joevon Barnes is a plumber, coach, speaker, radio host, and father of two daughters. But more than anything, he's a man who chose to break cycles, stay present, and become the father his daughters needed.In this deeply practical and inspiring conversation, Joevon joins Ned Schaut to discuss fatherhood after divorce, raising daughters, healing family wounds, overcoming anger, building generational relationships, and why showing up consistently matters more than being perfect.Joevon shares the story of growing up as the youngest of seven children, navigating the fallout that followed his parents' passing, and learning hard lessons about family, legacy, and preparation. He offers a powerful challenge to fathers everywhere: get your affairs in order, communicate your wishes clearly, and don't leave your children with unnecessary burdens after you're gone.The heart of the conversation centers around one remarkable commitment:For more than 16 years, Joevon has maintained a weekly Daddy-Daughter Night with his daughters. Through divorce, custody changes, career shifts, and every season of life, he never stopped showing up. Today, at ages 28 and 24, his daughters still prioritize that time together.Joevon and Ned discuss:Raising daughters after divorce.Why children should never be placed in the middle of parental conflict.The importance of being present, even when life gets messy.How fathers shape the future relationships of their children.Healing from anger and childhood wounds.The role of mentors, teachers, and coaches.Building friendships with aging parents.Preparing for grandfatherhood.Financial wisdom and generational legacy.Why every child deserves a father who stays.One of the most moving moments comes when Joevon reflects on his father:“He may not have been the best of pops, but he was always there.”This episode is a reminder that fatherhood is not about perfection.It's about presence. It's about consistency. It's about being there.

Love, PlowGuyDave Question from Rob K from Connecticut Rob K From ConnecticutDear WLS Hey guys it's Rob again! I finally got my approval paperwork on my Aero M5 in my state after having to register it. Since it will probably be my only AR-10 I'll ever own unless I move I'm looking for ideas on a final build for it. I'm very similar to Nick where I don't want to switch around uppers on my lower. If you guys could only build one AR-10 how would each of you do it? Caliber? Barrel length? Optic? Max range I have access to is 200 yards. I'm open to anything on my final build including switching to 6.5 Creedmoor. It's currently set up with a 18inch Aero upper in 308 with a swampfox 5-25×56 FFP Warhawk. Before Jeremey comments I know the scope is massive for that rifle and range I have. I got a crazy deal on it and couldn't say no but realized it's not ment for my setup. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Bonus question! What bolt rifle would you throw that Warhawk on always down to buy another rifle for the collection. Many thanks guys!!! #WLS is life!!!

Teddy Cosco is joining me for this week's episode and we had a great chat. We discuss his start to fishing and working his way to steelhead, academia life, shooting clays at Cambridge, the experience of learning, camp cooking and the secret ingredient to good food, questionable sleep to fishing ratios, and so much more.
This week's episode is a little different than our usual conversations about birth trauma, healing, and maternal mental health.Kayleigh is taking listeners behind the scenes of her family's recent trip to Disney World and Universal Orlando, a trip she never expected would become one of their favorite family experiences. As a self-proclaimed non-theme-park expert, Kayleigh shares the planning strategies, lessons learned, and practical tips that helped make the trip successful for their family.Whether you're considering a Disney or Universal vacation, feeling overwhelmed by the planning process, or simply curious about how the trip went, this episode offers an honest look at navigating theme parks with a deeply feeling kiddo while managing parental expectations, anxiety, and sensory overwhelm.Key TakeawayThis episode is a reminder that parenting after trauma can still include joy, adventure, and unexpected moments of delight. While birth trauma may always be part of our stories, it doesn't have to define every chapter. Sometimes healing looks like watching your child experience something magical, realizing how far you've come, and creating new memories together.Tips Shared in This Episode

Among his admirers were Flaubert, who befriended and mentored the younger writer, and later masters of the form like Joyce and Chekhov, who were both deeply influenced by Maupassant's precision, economy, and subject matter. In this episode, Jacke reads one of Maupassant's most famous stories, "The Necklace," about a young middle-class couple whose social climbing efforts result in disillusionment and disaster. Then Jacke is joined by Mike Palindrome, the President of the Literature Supporters Club, for a discussion of what makes this late nineteenth-century story so powerful. On Sale Now!

Mike and Aaron Carruthers kick off Sci-Fi June with William Dear's time-travel oddity Timerider: The Adventure of Lyle Swann, in which motocross racer Lyle Swann (Fred Ward) accidentally blasts a century into the past and spends the entire film completely unaware that he's done it. That central gag — a fish out of water who doesn't know he's a fish — drives most of the conversation, along with the film's quietly clever bootstrap paradox, its improbably stacked character cast, and the eclectic score produced by former Monkee Mike Nesmith.Mike and Aaron dig into what makes Fred Ward's performance work, why Belinda Bauer's Claire registers as the true power center of her frontier town, and how Peter Coyote earns his villain credentials in a single scene. They also talk through Dear's resourceful low-budget filmmaking — shooting on free desert locations, strapping cameras to bikes, hiring young stunt teams for five grand — and the director's personal connections to early Sam Raimi and the Michigan indie scene, including The Northville Cemetery Massacre.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

Tell us about your Adventure!When most people retire, they look forward to relaxing or traveling. For Traci and Bart, retirement opened the door to a continued mission: rescuing senior animals. On their small farm in Pisgah, Iowa, they care for dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and other animals who often get overlooked. Their work is not sponsored or funded by any organization. Instead, they support these animals out of their own pockets, driven by a deep sense of purpose they describe as a calling from God.

We take a closer look at the headlines surrounding Peter Thiel's reported move to Argentina and ask whether one of Silicon Valley's most influential billionaires is really relocating, or simply spending a few years abroad while maintaining the ability to move wherever he chooses.We explore why Argentina has become a magnet for libertarian investors and political figures, the relationship between Peter Thiel and President Javier Milei, and what it means when wealthy elites begin looking beyond the United States for opportunity, security, or influence.The conversation then widens to Argentina's long-running economic crisis. We examine the country's complicated relationship with international lenders, including the World Bank and IMF, and discuss a recurring pattern in Argentine politics: conservative governments often receive substantial international financial support, only to struggle with debt, inflation, and economic management, while left-wing governments frequently face tighter access to international credit and their own economic constraints.Is Argentina a free-market success story in the making, a cautionary tale of economic dependency, or simply the latest destination for globally mobile elites? And what does Peter Thiel's presence say about the future of wealth, power, and national loyalty in an increasingly interconnected world?Join us for a wide-ranging discussion on billionaires, economic policy, international finance, and the enduring challenge of building prosperity in Argentina.SubstackPatreonWebsiteBooksTwitterTikTok

With rising credit card fees, explore whether they are fueling a comeback of writing checks or using cash. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! Small businesses are increasingly scrutinizing credit card processing fees, which can significantly impact profits. While checks and cash haven't made a full comeback, many business owners are looking for ways to reduce payment costs. How Much Do Credit Card Fees Cost? Most merchants pay between 1.5% and 3.5% per credit card transaction. Example: Auto Body Shop An auto body shop processing $214,000 annually in credit card payments at a 3.5% processing rate would pay approximately $7,500 per year in credit card fees. That's $7,500 that could otherwise be used for employee wages, equipment upgrades, marketing, or business growth. Are Checks Making a Comeback? In some industries, yes. Businesses that handle large invoices—such as contractors, auto repair shops, property managers, and professional service firms—are increasingly encouraging customers to pay by check or bank transfer to avoid processing fees. Checks can save businesses hundreds of dollars on large transactions, though they require more manual processing and can take longer to clear. What About Cash? Cash remains attractive because there are no credit card processing fees and funds are received immediately. However, cash also comes with challenges: Security risks Additional accounting and handling time Customer preference for card payments Many consumers now expect the convenience of paying with a card or mobile wallet. The Real Trend: Lower-Cost Electronic Payments Rather than returning to paper checks, many businesses are encouraging: ACH bank transfers Debit card payments Bank-to-bank payment apps Real-time payment systems These options often cost significantly less than traditional credit card transactions. Passing the Fee to Customers Some businesses are choosing to pass credit card processing fees directly to customers through a surcharge. For example, if a customer pays a $1,000 auto repair bill with a credit card and the processing fee is 3.5%, the customer may see an additional $35 surcharge on the invoice. This allows the business to recover its payment processing costs rather than absorbing them. Financial Literacy The set of skills needed to handle money wisely, invest effectively, and plan for a comfortable future is known as Financial Literacy. Did you know that these concepts can be introduced as early as ages 3 to 5, while foundational money habits are largely set by age 7. Financial education is life long, so start now!

ON ADVENTURE PODCAST | EPISODE 73 Episode 73: Running is Life with Aaron Saft As a species, we only do things if there is truly a reward on the other side. So when the reward is pain, struggle, suffering, and danger, what exactly keeps driving us back out the door? Aaron Saft has spent his life chasing that answer. A five-time ACC champion at NC State whose teams finished third at the NCAA Cross Country Championships, he traded the track for the trail, ran his first 100-miler in 2016, and has since become one of the most experienced ultrarunners in the Southeast. Today he coaches roughly 75 athletes full-time through his Running Is Life platform and podcast, a business he deliberately renamed from "MR Running Pains" because he believes running, done right, should bring as much joy as it does suffering. His résumé reads like a bucket list for the sport: the Grand Slam of Ultrarunning, the Bigfoot 200, Hardrock, Leadville, UTMB, and the Tor des Géants in the Italian Alps, where a fall, a head injury, and a watchful medic ended his race. He has finished a 100-miler while spiking a 100-degree fever, outrun a mother grizzly and her cubs in Canada, and learned the hard way when to push and when to stop. But ask Aaron why he does it and he won't point to a trophy. He'll point to the upside-down photo of his family pinned to his quad, the one he looks down at in the darkest miles to remember who he is suffering for. In this conversation, Josh and Aaron trace the many forms the "why" can take. They dig into presence, learning to run a hundred miles one mile at a time, and the moment an empty drop bag at Leadville taught Aaron everything he needed to know about the generosity of the trail community. They talk about the one question you never ask an ultrarunner, the evolution from chasing a place to simply chasing the finish line, why legacy is something children catch rather than something we teach, and how an abundance mindset shaped the coaching practice he built from the ground up. It is a conversation for every everyday explorer about doing the hard things that make life fuller, right now, not someday. Episode Highlights • 06:00 The Terry Foxworth connection and the heart of On Adventure: the reward beneath the suffering • 15:00 Running Is Life: why words matter and reframing the sport away from pain • 19:00 From reluctant soccer goalie to cross country, and the high school coach who changed his life • 24:00 The NC State years: five ACC titles, redshirting, and racing the steeplechase • 28:00 Virginia, mentor Ben Thomas, the run shop, and the move into trail running • 33:00 First 50K to first 100: the long adventure runs that planted the seed • 37:00 What 100 and 200 miles teach you that a marathon never will: presence, mile by mile • 38:00 Finishing the Grand Slam and the Wasatch 100 with a 100-degree fever • 44:00 When to keep going and when to stop: the Tor des Géants head injury and a fevered DNF on Mount Mitchell • 52:00 Intrinsic motivation, the family photo on the quad, and the "debt" a race director taught him about • 55:00 The empty drop bag at Leadville and the generosity of the trail community • 59:00 "What do you need?" The only question you ask an ultrarunner • 01:01:00 Adventure versus performance, "level 49," and racing for the finish line instead of the place • 01:08:00 Legacy as something caught, not taught, and raising two runners of his own • 01:13:00 From brick-and-mortar to online coaching: 75 athletes, an abundance mindset, and a teaching heart • 01:25:00 Rapid fire: the grizzly bear, the Altra Lone Peak 9+, best and worst races, and five 100-milers in one summer Resources and Mentions from This Episode Here are the people, places, and resources Aaron mentioned in this episode: • Running Is Life, Aaron's coaching practice and podcast • Training for the Uphill Athlete, the team's recent book study and a foundational training manual • Races referenced: Grindstone 100, Mountain Masochist 50, Hellgate 100K, Western States, Leadville 100, Wasatch 100, Hardrock 100, UTMB, the Bigfoot 200, the Tor des Géants, the Cocodona 250, and the Ouray 100 • Gear note: the Altra Lone Peak 9+ with the Vibram outsole Free for Listeners: The Money Trail Guide Josh's free resource for everyday explorers is packed with practical insights on planning for any adventure, big or small, minimizing trail waste along the way (yes, that means taxes), and living with confidence toward whatever is most meaningful to you.

Solo Motorcycle Travel Through South America with Lala BarlowLala Barlow was working in musical theatre in Melbourne, Australia, when the pandemic brought the industry to a halt.
