If you're looking to be an influencer, then this episode isn't for you. But if you're looking to become a woman of influence, someone who knows she's called to more, who wants to create real impact, and who believes her story can help change lives - you're in the right place. In this episode, Jake Havron unpacks the difference between being an influencer and becoming a Crowned Authority - a woman whose influence isn't built on attention, but on conviction, character, and calling. He breaks down why followers don't determine your worth, and how the women changing the world are often the ones who stop performing and start owning who God created them to be. Because the truth is, the authority you've been searching for isn't something you have to earn. It's something God has already placed inside of you. The question is: will you have the courage to pick up the crown? What You'll Learn: The difference between being an influencer and becoming a woman of influence Why chasing followers may be keeping you from your calling How to discover the unique authority God already placed inside you How to build a personal brand that's rooted in conviction instead of validation The framework for becoming a Crowned Authority in your industry Timestamps: (01:56) - Why So Many Women Feel Called But Stay Hidden (08:28) - The Difference Between An Influencer and A Woman of Influence (10:50) - Billboard vs Architect: Influencers vs Crown Authorities (12:43) - Why Trying to Help Everyone Is Hurting Your Brand (17:52) - What Makes A Brand Feel Premium (22:36) - Foundation Before Presence (27:17) - Why Brands Without Souls Will Disappear (31:57) - Is Your Brand Working for You or Against You?

It's no longer news that Hollywood studios are using artificial intelligence in editing, animation, visual effects and more. But last week “Dreams of Violets,” a new film about protests in Iran, became the first fully AI-generated live-action feature to screen at Tribeca and is a project that journalist Steven Zeitchik says the industry is watching nervously. We talk about the rapidly growing use of A.I. in filmmaking and the impacts that's having on audiences, industry professionals and an artform built on human storytelling. Guests: Steven Zeitchik, senior editor for technology and politics, Hollywood Reporter; author, "Mind and Iron," a humanist newsletter about our AI future Peter Murrieta, executive producer, showrunner and writer; secretary-treasurer, Writers Guild of America West Learn more about your ad choices.

I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and three-time NAACP Image Award-winning television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Brendan Kaminsky. Founder of B Known Agency, a boutique branding and digital marketing firm specializing in sports and entertainment. Kaminsky shares his journey from consulting, to working at ESPN, to eventually launching his own agency. He discusses helping major personalities like Stephen A. Smith, Jalen Rose, Harrison Barnes, and Rich Eisen develop strong social media identities and storytelling strategies. Brendan explains why he left ESPN after six and a half years—despite the security, prestige, and Disney benefits—to pursue entrepreneurship. He describes how brand building has shifted from traditional media to a landscape where relatability, vertical video, audience engagement, and consistent content matter more than follower counts. He also talks about the pressure of managing public-facing work in real time, the importance of being accessible to high‑profile clients, the rising role of AI in content creation, and how social platforms have become core to modern marketing strategies. Additionally, Brendan shares specific examples of working with Jalen Rose on mixing sports commentary with community-focused storytelling and describes how Rich Eisen’s annual “Run Rich Run” 40‑yard dash evolved into a signature charitable brand moment. The interview closes with insights on relationship-building, authenticity, and visibility—reinforcing that in the digital era, it’s not just “who you know,” but who knows you. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW 1. To highlight Brendan Kaminsky’s entrepreneurial journey McDonald explores how Kaminsky transitioned from a major corporation (ESPN) to founding a successful agency. 2. To educate listeners on the evolving world of branding and digital media Kaminsky explains how branding now depends on relatability, vertical video, and engagement over follower count. 3. To provide actionable guidance for entrepreneurs and creators The interview teaches how consistency, accessibility, and storytelling help build a recognizable digital brand. 4. To show how athletes and media personalities use content to expand influence Brendan walks through real client strategies—from Jalen Rose’s community work to Rich Eisen’s fundraising dash. 5. To explore the role of AI in modern marketing Kaminsky discusses how AI assists with analytics, research, and identifying viral content moments. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Relatability drives modern branding People connect with authenticity, not polished promotion. Talk to your audience, not at them. 2. Engagement matters more than follower count Algorithms reward content that resonates, regardless of how many people follow you. A creator with 10,000 followers can hit a million views. 3. Social media requires presence and accessibility High-profile clients expect responsiveness; being available is key to agency success. 4. Vertical video is the new standard Optimizing content for mobile consumption is essential—TV graphics no longer dictate how content is built. 5. AI is an asset, not a threat Kaminsky uses AI for virality scoring, caption suggestions, research, and identifying strong clips from long-form content. 6. Data tells the story Success can be clearly measured through views, engagement, and growth—unlike billboards or traditional media. 7. Use “hot topics” to highlight deeper work For clients like Jalen Rose, trending sports conversations help drive attention to community-focused initiatives like his leadership academy. 8. Brand moments can start from something small Rich Eisen’s 40-yard dash evolved into a signature charity event and content anchor. 9. Entrepreneurship requires trusting your gut He left ESPN without telling anyone beforehand to avoid discouragement—because he felt the pull to build his own vision. 10. Visibility creates opportunity In the digital era, it’s not just who you know—it’s who knows you. NOTABLE QUOTES On entrepreneurship “I trusted my gut… I didn’t tell one person I was leaving ESPN because I didn’t want anyone to make me doubt myself.” On branding “People want to relate to you. They want to get to know you.” “Talk directly to your audience.” On social metrics “It’s become a lot more about engagement and views than total follower number.” On accessibility “You could be the best at your job, but if a client can’t reach you, it doesn’t matter.” On visibility “It’s not about who you know—it’s about who knows you.” On AI “AI is absolutely an asset… it helps us with research, analytics, even virality scoring.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Kerry Lutz sits down with Jeff Dornik, founder and CEO of Pickax and host of The Jeff Dornik Show, to examine the rapid rise of artificial intelligence and its impact on society, work, and personal freedom. Jeff shares concerns echoed by leading tech figures about large-scale workforce displacement and the growing possibility that human labor could become increasingly obsolete. The discussion explores what happens when traditional work and purpose begin to disappear, and how that shift could contribute to a broader social and psychological crisis. Kerry and Jeff also dig into the political and civil liberties implications of advanced AI systems, including the risks of centralized data control, government overreach, and expanding surveillance capabilities. Drawing comparisons to past expansions of federal power, they emphasize the urgent need for safeguards to protect free speech, privacy, and intellectual property as AI becomes more deeply embedded in society. Jeff also discusses Pickax, a human-centered social platform designed to reduce algorithmic manipulation and encourage open dialogue.

Brent is joined by Paige Kosinski, co-founder of Odyssey Entertainment Group, an influencer talent management company that has grown from a boutique operation into a mid-size powerhouse. The conversation covers the evolution of the creator economy, the art of matching talent with brands, and the practical steps aspiring creators need to take to build sustainable careers. Whether you are a merchant looking to leverage influencer marketing or a creator hoping to monetize your platform, this episode delivers real-world guidance from someone who lives and breathes this space every single day.Key TakeawaysConsistency beats follower count. Algorithms reward creators who show up regularly, and brands now prioritize engaged communities over raw follower numbers.Start with one clear focus. Creators should establish expertise in a single area before expanding into lifestyle content. That focus gives audiences a reason to stick around.Brand partnerships drive the bulk of creator revenue. Beyond one-off deals, long-term collaborations with aligned brands create stability for both the creator and the company.AI-generated content can backfire. Audiences are quick to spot avatar-driven or AI-produced material, and brands are even adding contract clauses to limit AI use in creative deliverables.The creator economy welcomes every generation. Gen X influencers are thriving on social platforms, proving that audience-building has no age requirement.Personal branding comes first. Monetization follows naturally when a creator invests in building a genuine, recognizable brand with clear content pillars.Cross-platform presence matters. Successful creators post across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Pinterest depending on where their audience lives.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Odyssey Entertainment Group01:53 The Evolution of Influencer Management05:11 Matching Influencers with Brands09:03 The Importance of Community and Niche10:07 Engaging Older Audiences11:11 Navigating Different Platforms12:39 Building a Personal Brand13:31 Public Speaking and Influencer Opportunities14:33 The Role of AI in Content Creation17:21 Getting Started as an Influencer18:55 Closing Thoughts and Promotions ResourcesOdyssey Entertainment Group - https://www.odysseyentertainmentgroup.comErica Ver - PianyandHoney - https://www.instagram.com/pianyandhoneyWall Blush Modern Manor Collection - https://wallblush.com/collections/modern-manor

They repeat it creatively, in different contexts, weaving in unique stories and personal experiences. - Authenticity is Non-Negotiable Discover why copying strategies that work for others leads to frustration, while embracing your unique client attraction style builds real connection and credibility. Cindy shares practical exercises, such as drawing your ideal client, to tap into authentic psychographic insights. - Lead Magnets That Attract Premium Clients Generic lead magnets build disengaged lists. Cindy and Erik stress the importance of solving the "3 a.m. problem" for your ideal client, designing offers and email content that resonate deeply and convert consistently. - Authority Endures Beyond AI While algorithms and AI shift daily, personal connection and storytelling remain the true currency of influence. Cindy's real-life stories, lessons learned, and her willingness to be visible (bald head and all) demonstrate how leaders stand out by owning their truth. - Collaboration is the Fast Track to Authority From summits and giveaways to roundtable interviews, collaborations create triple wins: for you, your partners, and your communities. Cindy and Erik reveal how even "new" podcasters can leverage collaborations to grow authority quickly.

Se dire allié et continuer à invisibiliser les personnes qu'on prétend défendre, n'a rien avoir avec du militantisme. C'est de la posture. Et si tu ignores l'outil révolutionnaire qu'est le regard situé, tu n'es peut-être pas l'allié que tu prétends être
The question isn't comfortable, but it does need to be asked.Mainstream culture keeps insisting that women have never had it so good. The boardroom diversity reports are framed as wins. The International Women's Day cupcakes are distributed with enthusiasm. And yet something doesn't add up. The data on regression in gender equality is mounting. The algorithmic pipeline from mainstream social media to radicalised misogyny is documented. And governments around the world, despite the evidence, have chosen to look the other way.To put that into context, think about learning framework for AI and what historical narratives are being ingested.In this episode, Di Gillett is joined by Jasmin Bedir, CEO of advertising agency, Innocean Australia and founder Fckthecupcakes (FTC) and her candour is both refreshing and at times, confronting. They interrogate whether women are genuinely going backwards, who is manufacturing the backlash, and what role technology - specifically AI and social media algorithms is playing in cementing discrimination that was supposed to be dismantled. They name the non-negotiables: what governments must mandate, what platforms must be held accountable for, and what women can collectively do right now to force the conversation out of the think-piece and into legislation. We explore::AI algorithms are not neutral — they reflect and amplify the biases embedded in the data and the teams that built themThe absence of government regulation on social media and AI is not a failure — it is a deliberate choice, and women need to make that choice politically costlyPerformative corporate activism actively distracts from the structural change that is neededThe manosphere is not a fringe phenomenon — it is algorithmically amplified, and platforms profit from itCollective action by women does not mean waiting for an invitation to the table — it means building a different table entirely Chapters 05:24 Assessing Progress: Are We Moving Forward or Backward?10:56 The Role of Men in Gender Equality16:46 The Intersection of Technology and Gender20:54 AI and Its Impact on Gender Discrimination32:22 The Call for Regulation and Action Be the first to catch inspiring interviews, empowering stories, and thought-provoking conversations.
Going viral is not the same thing as building a real business. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why chasing the algorithm can become one of the biggest distractions for entrepreneurs, and why real long-term success comes from discipline, consistency, and strong business fundamentals. Because let's be real… If your income depends entirely on whether a platform decides to push your content… You are not in control. The platform is. In this episode, you'll learn: Why viral views do not automatically create a profitable business How chasing trends can pull entrepreneurs away from the fundamentals Why weak sales systems get exposed when more attention comes in How owning your audience and customer data gives you real leverage Why fulfillment, retention, and customer experience matter more than hype Platforms change. Algorithms shift. Trends disappear. But work ethic, consistency, and strong business systems never go out of style. Too many entrepreneurs focus on: Views Likes Trends Virality Algorithm hacks But elite operators focus on: Conversions Retention Customer relationships Systems Execution Long-term value No chasing hype. No depending on lucky breaks. No building a business around attention you do not control. Just real infrastructure, direct communication, and consistent value delivered every single day. The truth is simple: The entrepreneurs who win online are not the ones who chase every trend. They are the ones who outwork the noise, master the basics, and build something that lasts.

Every breakthrough technology is supposed to make us do more with less. And yet somehow, every time one of these arrives, we end up working more. In this episode, Igor unpacks a paradox he has been living inside for months. The AI tools that were supposed to save him time are costing him more of it. Algorithms that work perfectly for twenty runs and then fall apart on the twenty-first. The honest, unfiltered reality of working with AI when you are a maximizer who refuses to accept anything less than perfect.

*triggers: This episode includes discussion of depression and mental health crises. In 1997 Natalie Imbruglia released her first single, Torn, which sold more than 4 million physical copies worldwide. In her homeland of Australia, it became the most played song on the radio, being played an average of 75 times a day over the two decades following its release. She landed a part in Neighbours in 1985, when she was just 16 years old, and stayed on the hugely popular soap for two years before moving to London. Her first album, Left Of Middle, went multi-platinum. Five further albums followed but it wasn't always easy: in 2009 she took a six-year break from music to concentrate on acting, appearing on stage and in film and also as a judge on the Australian X Factor. Since then, she has released further music, become a mother to a son and won The Masked Singer. Now she returns with her seventh studio album, Algorithm. We talk about how writing this album coincided with the perimenopause, reflect on her time in Neighbours, her experience of dating apps, going through solo IVF to have her son, the sexism she faced in the music industry, plus the wisdom she has found in her 50s. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 03:08 Making Natalie's new album Algorithm 04:55 Neurodivergence and Menopause 08:59 Death Scrolling 10:47 Dropped by Label 16:07 Neighbors and Rejection 25:35 Dating in Your 30s 27:15 Rejection Builds Clarity 27:37 Choosing Love Over Biology 30:47 IVF Reality Check 34:13 Single Mother Headlines 35:48 Manifesting With Lists 38:11 Living After Torn 43:53 Sexism and Aging Power
What if some of the battles you're facing aren't just emotional—they're spiritual? In this week's episode, Laura and Nicoletta take a deep dive into the realities of envy, comparison, pride, body image, social media, and the approval of man, while exploring a topic many Christians avoid: spiritual warfare. Drawing from Scripture and personal experiences, they discuss how the enemy often uses subtle tactics to distract believers, create division, fuel insecurity, and keep people trapped in cycles of comparison and self-focus. If you've ever struggled with comparison, insecurity, people-pleasing, spiritual warfare, body image, social media pressure, or feeling stuck in patterns that seem impossible to break, this episode will challenge you to examine what's happening beneath the surface and remind you of the victory already available through Jesus.

Clinical psychologist and men's mental health researcher Zac Seidler on how boys are being fed increasingly inflammatory content online, and what men can do IRL to offer a version of masculinity that is healthy and vulnerable, instead of hard and dangerous.Many young men are taking a journey on the internet right now which starts with inoffensive self-improvement videos on platforms like YouTube and TikTok, but quickly becomes something else entirely.Young guys are searching the internet for fitness, grooming or relationship advice, looking for self-esteem and self-discipline. The algorithm then tries to sustain their attention by offering them more inflammatory and more dangerous content, presented by influencers with cigars and sunglasses, who give them an ideology that blames women for all of their problems.This is the loose digital ecosystem that has been named the 'manosphere', and it's leading people to wonder what exactly is going on with men that they're being drawn into a dark place and ideology that completely alienates them from women and from real life experience.Zac Seidler is a clinical psychologist and the director of research at Movember, the men's mental health charity, and he is particularly interested in men's issues.Zac has conducted some world-first research into this online world, asking the questions 'What need is this content meeting?', and how can men be empowered to pull themselves, their sons and their mates out of this dangerous cycle.Keep up to date with the research Zac is doing via Movember, the leading charity changing the face of men's health.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris. Executive Producer was Eliza Kirsch.It explores manhood, masculinity, toxic masculinity, sons, fatherhood, men's mental health, men's suicide rates, depression, Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson, Myron Gaines, Rollo, Joe Rogan, social media algorithms, Instagram, chronically online, touch grass, grief, death, sex and relationships, isolation, vulnerability, how to talk openly about mental health struggles, men and boys, mothers and sons, Looksmaxxing, Clavicular, becoming a father, marriage, love, husbands, how to be a better man, empathetic accountability, Breadtube, Contrapoints, Hbomberguy, and PhilosophyTube.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

A big part of my personal life is whole foods, which is a foundational part of how our family operates. My husband prepares every meal from scratch—from homemade sourdough to scratch sauces to kombucha. So this week's episode is a special one with Melissa Griffiths, the creative soul behind Bless This Mess, a long-running food and lifestyle brand that celebrates simple cooking, slow living, and the beauty of everyday family life.For more than fifteen years, Melissa has shared approachable recipes, homesteading inspiration, and routines with a community of home cooks looking to bring more peace and purpose into their homes. We talk about how she balances using AI for automating texts yet prioritizing human creativity in core content creation. And even though this episode isn't about writing books, it's about writing meaningful content that speaks to your audience, especially through sharing real stories and shared values to deepen audience engagement.We also discuss facing the challenges of business shifts, like with traffic and revenue, and looking at new product development. The overarching theme is connecting and engaging with your audience and finding where you fit in and meet a need.As a mother of five, Melissa built her business in the margins of family life, testing recipes during naptime, photographing meals at her kitchen table, and shaping her work around the seasons of motherhood. Her work isn't just about food, it's about reclaiming time, joy, and connection in a world that often demands more than we have.If you're interested in reclaiming a more meaningful lifestyle through food and community, this episode is for you.Learn more about Melissa:WebsiteInstagram @blessthismessblogFacebookRecommended books:Raising Securely Attached Kid, by Lisa DamourThe Emotional Lives of Teenagers, by Eli HarwoodFollow me on:Instagram @stacyennisFacebook @stacyenniscreativeLinkedInYouTube @stacyennisauthorTo submit a question, email hello@stacyennis.com or visit stacyennis.com/contact and fill out the form on the page.

In the May 2026 edition of the PRmoment Podcast, host Ben Smith sits down with new business maestro Andrew Bloch (AAR, PCB Partners) to dissect a shifting UK communications landscape. The overarching theme of the month highlights a widening divide between agencies riding massive waves of momentum and those experiencing localized, procurement-driven hesitation.Before diving into the market data, Ben shares two critical industry diary dates for your radar:AI in PR Masterclass (July 2nd, 2026): Titled The Age of Algorithms, Predictive Analytics, and Risk, this event is a comprehensive guide to navigating future-facing tech.

Ensure your team's best creative work is in the running by submitting over at creativemomentawards.co.Key Themes1. The procurement squeeze and market polarizationAndrew Bloch defines the current climate as one of "cautious optimism" mixed with macro anxiety. Pipelines are active, but growth is unevenly distributed. Agencies with sharp specialisms—particularly in sports, consumer lifestyle, and social—are thriving, while others face gridlocked client sign-offs. Furthermore, clients are heavily relying on procurement to extract maximum commercial impact, shifting expectations entirely away from traditional "column inches."2. The independent "David vs. Goliath" surgeA massive takeaway from May's pitch cycle is the clear dominance of independent agencies over legacy network holding companies. Clients are progressively prioritizing agile storytelling and pure earned media capabilities over sheer corporate scale.3. M&A Strategy: earned media as strategic platform glueWhile private equity (PE) and trade buyers are exercising strict valuation discipline, high-quality independents remain hot targets. Private equity is increasingly viewing standout consumer PR agencies as anchor platforms to bolt on smaller social, data, and AI-enabled services.Major pitch wins & M&A DealsNotable Wins: Words and Pixels scooped the coveted UK/Ireland brief for tech giant Pinterest, beating out legacy networks. Newly launched Joe Public landed Sneak Energy, and The Romans expanded their sports footprint by securing Oakley's global and North American remit. Other wins included Grayling taking the Croatian National Tourist Board and Hope and Glory onboarding Ask Italian.M&A Highlights: Publicis made a massive $2.2 billion bet on tech infrastructure by acquiring data collaboration platform LiveRamp at a 30% premium. Meanwhile, Havas snapped up Paris-based corporate influence firm Format, and Mike Worldwide acquired workplace communications agency Hudson Lake.Quotes from Andrew BlochOn maintaining agency momentum:"In a market like this where budgets could disappear overnight, momentum is really the closest thing you can get to having security... You can't stand still in this market. Standing still is going backwards."On why private equity is hunting for PR firms:"What's really encouraging for the PR space is they're seeing earned media as actually the glue that ties together lots of different bits of the marketing mix."On the resurgence of pure storytelling:"A lot of agencies have almost forgotten the art of storytelling and the art of earned media... Let's not forget how important earned media is. That's where PR is."
Michael Shermer speaks with Oxford philosopher Carissa Véliz about the long human desire to know the future—from ancient oracles and astrology to AI, surveillance capitalism, predictive policing, and "data-driven" decision-making. Véliz argues that prediction is rarely neutral: the same machinery that collects personal data also tries to forecast behavior, and once institutions start treating predictions as facts, forecasts can become tools of control. The conversation gets into why privacy matters for democracy, how algorithms can turn human lives into self-fulfilling prophecies, and why extraordinary people often fall outside predictive models. Shermer and Véliz also discuss the limits of science, the replication crisis, crime statistics, effective altruism, utilitarian ethics, and free will. Carissa Véliz is an associate professor at the Institute for Ethics in AI at the University of Oxford. Her first book, Privacy Is Power (Melville House) was an Economist book of the year and has been published in seven languages. Her academic work has been published in The Harvard Business Review, Nature, AI & Society, and The American Journal of Bioethics, among others. Her new book is Prophecy: Prediction, Power, and the Fight for the Future, from Ancient Oracles to AI.

Streaming has made music more accessible than ever. Rapper, producer and writer Rollie Pemberton believes algorithms are actually reshaping our music taste. He argues that convenience has come at a cost, making it easier to consume music but harder to build a meaningful relationship with it. We discuss streaming algorithms, record collecting and the lost art of discovery. Rollie shares why intentional listening matters and how reclaiming control of our music habits can enrich our lives.
Australia's concentrated media landscape and the rise of tech giants have created a complex hierarchy, influencing the kind of information we receive online. Experts say it's changing society, and negatively impacting our sense of hope. - Avustralya'da büyük şirketlerin kontrolündeki medya ortamı ve teknoloji devlerinin yükselişi, çevrimiçi olarak aldığımız bilgi türünü etkileyen karmaşık bir hiyerarşi yaratmış durumda. Uzmanlar, bunun toplumu değiştirdiğini ve umut duygumuzu olumsuz etkilediğini söylüyor.Hafta içi Salı hariç her gün Avustralya doğu kıyıları saati ile 14:00 ile 15:00 arasında yayınlanan SBS Türkçe radyo programını artık dilediğiniz podcast yayıncısından dinleyebilirsiniz.Instagram ve Facebook gibi büyük teknoloji şirketlerinin dijital platformları, medya kuruluşlarının tıklama ve etkileşim elde etmek için manşetleri ve haberleri sansasyonel hale getirme eğilimini artırdı.Queensland Üniversitesi Psikoloji Fakültesi'nden Doçent Michael Noetel, SBS Examines'e verdiği demeçte, bunun çoğumuzda "öğrenilmiş çaresizlik" (learned helplessness) hissi yarattığını söyledi.
Episode DescriptionJoin Todd and Tony for another round of “social media therapy” on Day Drinking on Delmarva. This week, the guys dive deep into the changing landscape of digital marketing, the pitfalls of small businesses chasing “viral” trends, and the harsh realities of the modern internet. They explore everything from authenticity to why national marketing strategies fail local businesses. Stick around until the end for a much-needed mini-rant from Todd on why you should at least buy your local marketing expert a drink before “picking their brain”.Key Takeaways & Episode HighlightsThe Death of Local SEO & The “Liquid Death” Trap* The Brand Discovery Dilemma: Tony points out that we treat the internet like it is built primarily for national and multinational brand discovery.* The “Do What They Do” Fallacy: Todd and Tony discuss how marketing creators love to advise small, local businesses to copy giant brands like Liquid Death. However, applying a massive, edgy brand budget strategy to a single-location restaurant or a local funeral home simply doesn't fit the same category.Shift to Episodic Video & Content Programming* Titan Caskets & David Dastmalchian: Tony highlights Titan Caskets' successful YouTube show, where famous people are interviewed inside a casket. Even as a smaller niche brand, treating content like a scheduled television show works.* The Power of Structure: Todd discusses wanting to adopt this episodic, pre-production mindset for Dewey Raw to make post-production faster and build a stronger viewer habit.AI vs. Authenticity: The Rise of “Slop”* The AI Flyer Incident: Todd shares a recent story about a motorcycle club event that posted a flyer made entirely via AI. He argues that even using stock photos or clip art is better because it ensures a creative person gets paid and keeps the content feeling grounded.* The “Underpants Gnomes” AI Strategy: Tony calls out the myth that businesses can just “give a young kid AI” and expect the work of three professionals. He compares it to the South Park joke: Hire someone to use AI $rightarrow$Question Mark $rightarrow$Profit. It produces a ton of content fast, but nothing good.The Illusion of “Impressionflation” and Bot Views* Legacy Media vs. Digital Metrics: Tony references the old advertising quote: “I know half my advertising budget is wasted; I just don't know which half.”* The Bot Bubble: While SEO marketers promise millions of views, last year's massive ad scandals proved that a vast majority of those numbers are just bots cataloging videos.* Podcast Reality Checks: Podcasts offer genuine download metrics, which can terrify advertisers who are used to inflated Facebook or YouTube “views” where a user only looks for a few seconds.Going “Anti-Viral”: Marketing with an End Game* Local > Viral: If you are a local funeral home or neighborhood restaurant, you don't need 10 million views or followers from Bangladesh. You need the 20,000 people living closest to you to know, like, and trust you.* Authentic Local Content:Instead of chasing the latest trending TikTok song, local businesses succeed more by showing the chef, a bartender prepping real oranges for original orange crushes, or a funeral director being a real, honest human.Todd's Two-Minute Rant“If you want advice on social media and you want to ask your friend who's the expert, realize that their time is valuable … Buy a guy lunch. Don't cheap out on ‘I'd like to know everything you think about this topic' but want to just come meet on a porch.”Resources & Links Mentioned* Tony's Website: ondeathcare.com(All things funeral industry and the death doula movement)* Todd's Website: goodcleanfunlife.com* Podcast Recommendation: The Rebooting This is a public episode.

In today's episode, Brock Johnson covers 10 recent Instagram algorithm updates and platform changes for June 2026. The most significant shift is how Instagram is weighing watch time and skip rate as the primary indicators of content quality — understanding how these metrics work together is essential for anyone trying to grow on the platform right now. Brock also walks through the rest of the updates, including clickable affiliate links in posts, the removal of 15 million bot accounts, selfie verification, the new Instants feature, clarification from Adam Mosseri on how DMs affect reach, why deleting a post won't hurt your reach, music integration for third-party schedulers, the ability to schedule trial Reels, and the official launch of Instagram Plus at $3.99/month — which includes a notable set of new features for Stories, profile customization, and audience management.

Ian Von sits down with triple–threat talent Keith D. Robinson for a rich conversation that moves between two worlds: R&B and acting. Keith opens up about growing up in 90s R&B culture, getting his start in harmony groups, landing a short–lived Motown deal, and how a leap of faith to Los Angeles led to major film and TV roles. He breaks down the parallels between his own journey and his breakout role as CC in Dreamgirls, revisits performing “Patience” on the Oscars stage alongside Beyoncé and Jennifer Hudson, and talks about what it meant to realize he actually belonged in rooms with icons like Jamie Foxx and Eddie Murphy. On the music side, Keith dives into his new single “Different Languages” and the forthcoming album Love Episodic 2: The Algorithm—a deeply personal project shaped by COVID, the Hollywood strike, fatherhood, and divorce. He explains how songwriting forces him to become more self–aware and empathetic, and why relationships are really defined in the bad times, not the good ones. They also unpack his role as Dr. Ted Richardson on CBS's Beyond the Gates, why affluent Black family stories matter in this moment, what it's like juggling live performance with on–camera work, and they close with a fun R&B head–to–head: Tank vs. Tyrese in Verzuz.

Why do anomalous experiences so often arrive in the wake of trauma? And what happens when the people who understand that connection decide to use it as a weapon? This episode of Inquiry follows trauma as the hidden throughline connecting UFOs, consciousness, psychological operations, and the engineering of belief at scale. Kelly Chase starts with how human perception actually works, drawing on Donald Hoffman's "The Case Against Reality," James Madden's umwelt and über-umwelt from "Unidentified Flying Hyperobject," and Jeffrey Kripal's Filter Thesis, then grounds it all in the predictive processing model of the brain and Karl Friston's free energy principle. The picture that emerges is unsettling: trauma doesn't only wound a person, it makes them porous, loosening the filters that hold consensus reality in place. From there the conversation turns toward how that vulnerability has been exploited. It traces belief manipulation from the 1980 "From PSYOP to MindWar" paper by Michael Aquino and Paul Vallely, through MKULTRA and Operation Mockingbird, to the declassified reality of Operation Northwoods and the manufacturing of consent. It brings in Jacques Vallée's control system hypothesis and Colm Kelleher's concept of bidirectional mimicry to ask whether human institutions and the phenomenon itself may be using the same lever: disruption, destabilization, and the reshaping of belief in the rupture's aftermath. Then it turns the dread on its head. Research on openness to experience and Post-Traumatic Growth suggests the architects of mass stress made a critical miscalculation. Trauma creates openings, and openings go both ways. You can crack the shell of consensus reality to make people malleable, but you cannot control what hatches.
