Podcasts about American Dream

This week Enn recaps S04 E08 of Law and Order, American Dream, which has Stone facing off with a particularly crafty defendant.  This case was very closely inspired by the Billionaire Boys Club, which was adapted into multiple films including the controversial 2018 flop starring Kevin Spacey. Matt takes us through the complicated scheme and talks about how Joe Hunt ran the Ponzi Scheme and how he was (allegedly) related to the death of Hedayat Eslaminia and the disappearance/murder of Ron Levin. Do you believe Ron Levin was killed, or is he still out there somewhere living it up?Support the show

Natasha Warikoo, Professor of Sociology at Tufts University spent time in a privileged suburb on the East Coast doing research for her book “Race at The Top: Asian Americans and Whites in Pursuit of the American Dream in Suburban Schools.” In a majority white town she calls Woodcrest, the Asian population is growing, and the Asian students consistently out-perform the white students there. We speak with Natasha about the competition between white and Asian students at Woodcrest and in suburbs like it. We also discuss where this leaves students whose opportunities are limited due to the lack of resources and access.  “Race at The Top: Asian Americans and Whites in Pursuit of the American Dream in Suburban Schools” by Natasha Warikoo (The University of Chicago Press)

In today's episode, you'll get to see the third major reason why Alpha Geek Capital, Tony's fast-scaling real estate company, is so successful. Omid Tehranirad is the third partner in the group, acting as the first layer of protection, or as he puts it, the “chastity belt”, of the partnership. Omid is the head of investor relations and splits operational duties with Sara, Tony's wife. He discovered real estate after being unfulfilled by the typical “American Dream'' job. His parents encouraged him to pursue the tried and true traditional path that leads to retirement at sixty-five, but after sixteen years at a corporate job, he needed something to change. Omid was looking for something new when he stumbled upon BiggerPockets and discovered the power of real estate investing. He already knew Tony since he was Sara's cousin, but it wasn't until they found out they both followed David Greene that they realized they could be making money together. From there, they did their first deal and as the saying goes, the rest is history.Omid and Tony work well together because they complement each other's skillsets. Where Tony is idealistic, Omid is realistic and together they reach each goal they set. Omid has been able to leave his corporate nine to five of eighteen years and increase his wealth overall—his financial wealth, social wealth, time wealth, and physical wealth. For the first time in years, he's able to drop his kids off at school, prioritize his physical health, and travel while still making money. Omid serves as proof that we all need to stop classifying wealth as just financial and realize true wealth is about finding your freedom.In This Episode We CoverBreaking away from the traditional “American Dream” (and finding something even better)The BRRRR method and how to a find low-risk rehabHow to prepare to transition from a fixed income to a variable income How to structure a partnership and prioritize partner alignment Understanding cash flow and making the numbers work for youIdentifying a client's need and how to create a mutually beneficial relationship and partnershipAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowAshley's InstagramTony's InstagramBiggerPocketsReal Estate Rookie Youtube ChannelReal Estate Rookie PodcastReal Estate Rookie Facebook GroupReal Estate Rookie BootcampAirbnbBiggerPockets ForumsAlpha Geek CapitalDavid Greene's BiggerPockets ProfileMonday.comWrikeRookie Reply: How Much Cash Flow Do You Need to Quit Your W2? w/Daryl ClinchDaryl Clinch's InstagramFind Money, Partners, & Deals Using The “D.A.D System” w/ Mike MichalowiczMike Michalowicz's WebsiteHospitableRod Khleif's WebsiteConnect with Omid:Omid's InstagramCheck out the full show notes here: https://biggerpocket.com/blog/rookie-183See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

So what does the economy look like in the near future for us working class citizens who have to actually work and pay for things with our hard earned money? Have you ever heard the economy works in cycles? Well, it is true, there are good times and bad times; well, it is part of the economic cycle. If you pay attention and are prepared, in most cases you can weather a downturn, even a nasty one, in the economy. In some cases, you can even grow your wealth. The problem is most Americans do not pay attention, we definitely know our politicians don't and spend our tax dollars like drunken sailors. Does that mean we should all do the same?  The second leg in The Three-Legged Stool of The Simple Life is Financial Freedom. The key to Financial Freedom is not following the herd to indentured servitude of lifelong debt. Today Rob Kendall and I discuss, the storm that is coming in the housing market and a future recession. We both firmly believe they are unavoidable, the debt is due and someone is going to have to pay for it! The key is to make the right financial moves, and ignore most of the advice the financial institutions and federal government are telling us, as they do not have your best interests at heart.

The 5-year survival rate of small businesses is 45%. This means that, on average, half the companies will fail in their first five years. The main reason for this high failure rate? Not having enough money! When working with new business owners, one of the first things our guest Rocky Lalvani looks for is any limiting beliefs around money. How have they learned to think about money in their life, and what do they believe today? We can uncover so much from our past experiences. Yet, some business owners never explore their current financial mindset, which could be holding them back from making more progress in business or achieving financial freedom. Rocky began his quest for the American Dream with $25. He immigrated to the United States when he was two years old, and his parents were in their 40s. Rocky knows firsthand what it looks like to build a wealthy lifestyle out of nothing through saving, investing, and spending wisely. Rocky serves as Chief Profitability Advisor for business owners, where he teaches his clients how to ensure they get paid and make profit a priority! He hosts two podcasts, The Profit Answer Man, where he helps people become more profitable. And another one called Richer Souls focuses on how to create the life of your dreams once you've made your money.  Rocky loves to share his journey and inspire others to achieve their dreams even faster.

What will the kids you know and love see as the end or purpose of work? Why will they choose to pursue the job and career path they choose to pursue? Will their goals be economic in ways that make the old Loverboy song “Working For the Weekend” their personal anthem? Or will they push back on the empty promises and dead-end of what's known as “The American Dream?” If we truly believe that the Gospel speaks to all of life and that Christian nurture leads to the integration of faith into our work, then we need to be pointing our kids to something better than what the culture is currently giving them. In a recent edition of First Things magazine, professor Max Torres writes about the Christian view of work: “The investment of the person into productive products is of transcendent, transformative importance, not just for the material progress of society, but most of all for the full realization of human potential.” We've been made to work to God's glory.

My guest today is Michael Meyer. He took a wide route to the story of Benjamin Franklin's remarkable afterlife, starting when Meyer was sent to China as one of its first Peace Corps volunteers. Beginning with The Last Days of Old Beijing, he authored three critically-acclaimed reported books set there, as well as numerous stories that appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, Time, Smithsonian, and on This American Life. A Guggenheim Fellow and Whiting Award winner, Meyer has also received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the New York Public Library's Cullman Center for Scholars and Writers, MacDowell, and the Rockefeller Foundation's Bellagio Center in Italy. The topic is his book Benjamin Franklin's Last Bet: The Favorite Founder's Divisive Death, Enduring Afterlife, and Blueprint for American Prosperity. In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss: The incredible story of Benjamin Franklin's parting gift to the working-class people of Boston and Philadelphia—a deathbed wager that captures the Founder's American Dream and his lessons for our current, conflicted age.

In this episode, we continue covering history's biggest lessons.  We now find ourselves in 1975, when the United States experienced its biggest population boom ever. This boom led to an increase in people looking for jobs—and a massive deficit in the government's capacity to provide. From 1975 until now, the people on the ground faced two problems: first, wages stopped increasing; and second, the value of money was decreasing. This means that we are working twice as hard to earn only half as much. The advent of the internet connected people like never before. But at the same time, they're getting left behind. The American Dream is becoming increasingly difficult to achieve, and people are still exposed to the same imagery of a Great America.  The Rise of Debt How do you influence the favor of the masses? Thatcher's answer was to give free housing to low-income individuals in the United Kingdom. After that, she decides to introduce mortgages. This effectively turns people into debtors. What started as something good turned into a new form of slavery. “You're paying with money that is continually worth less where you have to work more to buy yourself out of something you never even own,” Alexander explained. In the United States, Reagan decides to deregulate credit. This gave way for Wall Street to begin financing extensively. In turn, everything starts to become more expensive. Everything is just artificial building stimulated by artificial growth. At the end of the day, your wages aren't going up. As an ordinary person, you're still in the rat race all day long. It's a vicious cycle of having to borrow more money to finance a standard of living that you are expected to maintain. All this is happening against the backdrop of world events like the rise of the Berlin Wall, the fall of communism, the Silicon boom, offshore manufacturing, and the rise of nations. Closing Thoughts Politics is downstream of economics. Throughout history, the system has been twisted to favor the welfare of the one percent. When we look toward the future, we have to start being proactive. This entails creating the tools and platforms that the people on the ground need to claim personal responsibility and free themselves from a vicious cycle of earning less, incurring debt, and working more. Start supporting these platforms now. Sign up for TARTLE here.

The Last Victim, stars Prime Time Emmy Award® Winner Ron Perlman (Hellboy franchise, Beauty and the Beast), Ali Larter (Legally Blonde, Resident Evil franchise, Final Destination franchise), and Ralph Ineson (The Green Knight, The Witch, Chernobyl). Naveen A. Chathapuram's directorial debut is a stylish, white-knuckle neo-western set in rural americana, based on a story by Chathapuram and Doc Justin, and written by Ashley James Louis. The Last Victim follows a group of modern-day outlaws (led by Ineson), pursued by an aging sheriff (Perlman), who deal with the fallout of a crime gone wrong in the harsh landscape of the American Southwest. When a young professor (Larter) and her husband cross paths with the gang, they are drawn into a chain of vengeance where morality is ambiguous and survival is the only priority. With a deep understanding of the psychological and sociological underpinnings of people sidelined and disillusioned by the promise of the American Dream, Chathapuram crafts a unique vision of survival in the wilderness, exemplified by Larter's raw performance. Chathapuram previously produced Ca$h starring Sean Bean and Chris Hemsworth for Roadside Attractions, Night of the Living Dead: Darkest Dawn, and executive produced Netflix's Brown Nation.

“All of life is a gamble, all of it!” says Kamal Gupta, a man who has taken big risks throughout his life – risks he details in his book “Play It Right,” the story of a young graduate of the Indian Institute of Technology who took a chance in the late 1980s and left India for the United States.   Gupta's story is more than the story of an immigrant in search of the “American Dream.” His is a story of a man who took big risks. After securing a well paying job in tech, he became bored. To alleviate his boredom, he became fascinated with blackjack. He was determined to master the game and win. And win, he did. He quit his job and became a professional gambler.   Two years later, he bet again and did two things he said he would never do – “work on Wall Street and Live in New York; those were the promises I made to myself,” says Gupta. His journey to the top of the financial markets is fascinating and insightful.     Stuart McNish invited Kamal Gupta, the author of “Play It Right,” to join him for a Conversation That Matters about the value and risks of taking changes and how not taking them is also a gamble.    Please become a Patreon subscriber and support the production of this program, with a $1 pledge https://goo.gl/ypXyDs

Hour 3 -  Good Thursday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: Former President Trump appears to be owning the "King MAGA" nickname given to him by President Biden. A Colorado sixth-grader was told to consider declaring herself transgender while attending what she thought was an after-school art club meeting last year. The National Science Teaching Association held training sessions for Pre-K-12 teachers to inject gender ideology into their classrooms, including referring to their students by their bodily functions to be a “better intersex ally.” ALSO -  Our weekend producer, Katie from Russia, joins us for a quick chat: Katie is starting season two of her podcast, The American Dream.

The Play Podcast - 046 - All My Sons Host: Douglas Schatz Guest: Douglas Rintoul The Play Podcast is a podcast dedicated to exploring the greatest new and classic plays. In each episode we choose a single play to talk about in depth with our expert guest. We discuss the play's origins, its themes, characters, structure and impact. For us the play is the thing. Arthur Miller's breakthrough play All My Sons is both a searing family tragedy and an exploration of the moral challenges that Miller believed were inherent in the American Dream. Douglas Rintoul, who has recently directed a wonderful production at the Queen's Theatre in Hornchurch, joins me to share his insights of this devastatingly powerful play.

Witnesses are calling the Avostal plant in Mariupol a living hell. There are reports that the massive complex has been bombarded 34 times in just the past 24 hours. The Russians continue to attempt to storm the plant. But the Ukrainians aren't backing down. 100 civilians, more than a thousand soldiers, and 500 wounded remain at the Azovstal plant. The city and plant were supposed to fall weeks ago. But like with so many other moments in this war, Ukraine has defied the predictions.  The Azovstal plant in Mariupol has become the latest symbol of Ukrainian strength, defiance and toughness. This is their Alamo. And they will fight to the last man or woman to defend it. Like they will for every other inch of their land. And we dig into the latest.  EASY is over. This is the long haul now.  The artillery and trench battles in the East are grinding into what could devolve into a stalemate that could last months, even years. This is where the war could turn into an even more brutal and horrfying grinder. You will want to turn away. You will feel a need to turn away. Putin WANTS you to turn away.  But you can't. Ukraine is the fight of our time. A fight for all times. And Memorial Day, summer break in America, Roe vs Wade, The NBA playoffs, the midterm elections—none of that is a good enough excuse to turn away from the fight of our time. The fight for all time. It's not just the people of Ukraine who must stay focused. It's not just just our leaders in Congress and our president that must stay focused. Every single independent American who loves freedom must stay focused. This is a time to stay vigilant.  And in this high-impact episode we've got a guest who is changing the past, present and future not only of Ukraine, but of America. Another leader who knows both worlds–the US and Ukraine.  He has spent the last 8 years of his life living in Ukraine. And has spent the last 3 months on the front lines of the war helping us all stay connected—and stay vigilant.  He's an American special forces veteran, a combat journalist, and the husband of a Ukrainian–who is telling the story of this war—-through his life in it: Nolan Peterson (@NolanWPeterson).  A former U.S. Air Force Special Operations pilot and veteran of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Nolan Peterson is Senior Editor for Coffee or Die Magazine, an acclaimed war correspondent, and a globetrotting travel writer whose adventures have taken him to all seven continents.  And he breaks down what's happening now in Ukraine now: in the skies, among families, inside Mariupol, inside the units of foreign fighters–and into the future.

Jameela Green Ruins Everything by Zarqa Nawaz “I think we got off on the wrong foot, with you telling me I had to be killed and then me getting all upset about it. Let's start again. My name is Jameela, and I'm a writer. What do you do, besides . . . assassinations? Is that a hobby or more of a full-time thing?” Jameela Green has only one wish: to see her memoir on the New York Times bestseller list. When that doesn't work out, she decides that her best next step is to make a deal with God, so she heads over to her local mosque. The idealistic new imam, Ibrahim Sultan, is appalled by Jameela's shallowness but agrees to assist her, on one condition—that she perform a good deed. Jameela reluctantly accepts his terms, kicking off a series of unfortunate events. The homeless man they try to help gets recruited by a terrorist group, causing federal authorities to become suspicious of Ibrahim. When the imam mysteriously disappears, Jameela is certain that the CIA has captured her new friend for interrogation and possibly torture. Despite having no talent for this sort of thing, Jameela decides to set off on a one-woman operation to rescue him. Her quest soon lands her at the center of an international plan targeting the leader of the terrorist organization—a scheme that puts Jameela and count-less others, including her hapless husband and clever but disapproving daughter, at risk. A no-holds-barred satire about the international cost of the American Dream, Jameela Green Ruins Everything is a compulsively readable, darkly comedic, yet unexpectedly touching story of one woman's search for meaning and connection.

GUEST OVERVIEW: May Lor Xiong's family were among the Hmong people that fled the communist rule in Laos during the Vietnam War. After seeking refuge in the Ban Vinai refugee camp in Thailand, they emigrated to America in 1987 to a better life. They did not know what would happen to them, and they were terrified of what the future may hold. They learned about the American Dream and pursued it passionately. While May is a proud of her Hmong heritage, she is equally proud to be an American. Our American Dreams are under attack by the Left. In the name of “equity”, they have diminished American values and destroyed businesses. It breaks my heart to see those dreams disappear in front of me. While not perfect, America is the best! We have come a long way in achieving opportunities for all. Everyone has the right and the chance to pursue their American Dream, whatever that dream might be. May has decided to run for Congress as a Republican to protect the dreams of each and every American.

As a teenager, Dr. Nche Zama came to the United States on a student visa with just $20 in his pocket. He was homeless for a while until a compassionate person took him in and helped guide him on his journey to the American Dream. Dr. Zama was the second of six children, raised in grass huts by illiterate but hardworking parents who instilled within him the values of discipline, pragmatism, and community. When he witnessed the preventable and horrific death of his mother during childbirth due to the lack of access to a doctor and proper medical care, his life's purpose shifted forever. His father sold his property, so young Zama could travel to America for a better education. Today, Nche Zama, MD, PhD, is a renowned cardiothoracic surgeon who completed training at the Cleveland Clinic and Harvard University. He holds a PhD in chemistry, a Harvard master's degree in management, and a medical degree. He is recognized as one of the top cardiothoracic surgeons in the country and is often sought out for his expertise. He has held positions across Pennsylvania as Director of the ESSA Heart and Vascular Institute in East Stroudsburg, Director of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery at Jefferson Aria Health in Philadelphia, Chief of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery at Guthrie Clinic in Sayre, and has been a Staff Cardiothoracic Surgeon for Susquehanna Health Systems in Williamsport and York Hospital in York. He founded a humanitarian organization to provide medical and surgical care to the poor and disadvantaged. On one of his global humanitarian missions, he performed the first pediatric cardiac surgery in his native country of Cameroon. Valuing education, he has financially supported over two dozen of his nieces and nephews through college, provides financial support for an entire elementary school for poor children, and as vice chair of an American educational empowerment organization he has contributed to the construction of a new academy in Africa to train innovative thinkers and future leaders. He has also served as a Clinical Associate Professor at Commonwealth Medical College in Scranton and the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. Besides his extensive humanitarian efforts, Dr. Zama enjoys reading, traveling, music, hiking, running, and learning new languages—adding to the six he already speaks. He enjoys spending time with his children, grandchildren, and family.
