Happy Tuesday, Everyone! I can't believe it's taken this long, but this week I am finally talking to my friend and Battlestar legend James Callis! On Battlestar, James played Dr. Gaius Baltar. He is also known for playing best friend Tom in the Bridget Jones' Diary movies, as well as appearances in Star Trek: Picard, 12 Monkeys, Arrow and most recently as Claude Whelan in Slow Horses. James was an intimidating person for me to interview — he's so smart about acting (and about everything else) and he plays a really good bad guy— but in this conversation, you get to see his goofy side and his tender side too. James is an incredible dad and I loved getting to talk to him about how fatherhood helps him keep the nonsense of life on set in perspective. He has also worked with some of the greatest actors of all time and we discuss what traits Gary Oldman, Kristin Scott Thomas, Peter O'Toole and Omar Sharif all have in common. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and I'm so happy I got to see James in person!

In this episode, hosts Chris and Mark speak with two leaders from the Silicon Valley company, Applied Materials: Chris Librie, outgoing Head of ESG, and Elena Kocherovsky, Climate Program Director. The discussion dives into the uniquely successful approach Applied Materials has taken to decarbonization and the evolution of their sustainability strategy. Chris and Elena explain how the ways Applied Materials has approached governance, internal and external collaboration, and their focus on making the company's sustainability efforts profitable have made it possible for the company to stay on track toward its net zero aspirations even in an era when many other companies have reduced or pushed back timelines related to their climate ambitions. They also discuss the importance of planning sustainability leadership transitions when roles and team composition change.
This is our 9th and final week of this journey through the Armour of God. Our goal all along has been to unlock the Truth that "The Armour is a lifestyle, a KIND of Life." It's not a mantra. It's not a prayer. It is a way of seeing Reality so that we can be as Free and Alive as humanly possible! This week we deal with "The Sword of The Spirit which is the Word of God." This is the ony offensive weapon in the armour. It is meant to cut off bondage and lies form ourselves and those around us. Problem is, are we listening? Is our "lifestyle" such that the "Word" of God is able to put a Sword in our hands?

Start Your Transformation Now In this episode of The Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim shares powerful lessons from his shaman and mentor, Don Javier (and Don Juan), offering four timeless spiritual principles to help you create a truly extraordinary 2026. As Jim prepares to evolve the show into a new era of “applied spirituality,” he explores how merging ancient wisdom with modern psychology can transform how we live, work, and relate to others. From authenticity and truth to fear, choice, and personal freedom, Jim dives deep into the energetic roots of human behavior. You'll discover why being anyone other than your true self drains your power, how fear hides behind every lie, and how defending your beliefs or feeling “stuck” are just choices waiting to be reclaimed. If you're ready to release self-deception, step out of fear, and start living in full alignment with your soul, this episode gives you practical, shamanic guidance to make 2026 your most liberated year yet. What You'll Discover in This Episode: Being who you are not is work (03:15) Jim reveals how pretending to be someone you're not drains energy—and why authenticity is the only sustainable power source. Every lie comes from fear (11:30) Explore how fear drives dishonesty, from small white lies to lifelong self-betrayal, and learn to replace it with radical honesty. Defending yourself defines you as someone who needs to defend (17:50) Jim explains why letting go of the need to justify your choices is the path to true agency and autonomy. Being stuck is a choice (24:30) A deep dive into personal responsibility—how we unconsciously choose stagnation and how to reclaim our freedom through conscious choice. Applied spirituality for everyday life (32:45) Jim shares how he's transforming the podcast to blend spiritual wisdom with practical application, helping you live your truth daily. Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway Every moment of your life is a choice—and the courage to choose truth over fear is the foundation of freedom. When you stop pretending, stop lying, stop defending, and start choosing consciously, you reclaim your energy and power. Authenticity isn't a risk; it's liberation. As you walk into 2026, ask yourself: Where am I still pretending? The moment you answer honestly, transformation begins. Let's Connect: Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?

What if the key to scaling to $250 million wasn't working harder, but working less? In this episode, George Rivera, founder of multiple 7- and 8-figure businesses and creator of the Buy Back Time Formula™, shares his 30-year entrepreneurial journey from a high school supplement business to a $250 million empire. Through the devastating loss of his father to cancer and the life-changing deathbed wisdom "don't miss Leo's games, I missed too many of yours," George discovered that the path to freedom wasn't grinding 100-hour weeks but systematically buying back his time. His mission? Helping entrepreneurs escape the "job with overhead" trap so they can scale their businesses while being present for the moments that matter most with their families. George reflects on how his father's final words arrived at exactly the right moment to transform his entire approach to business, and why buying back your time isn't just about making more money but about reclaiming your life before it's too late. [00:04:19] The 30-Year Journey Begins Started first business in 1995 at age 17-18 while still in high school Fell for Don Lapre's late-night infomercial (tiny apartment, classified ads, rags to riches) Bought the course, took action, made zero dollars, but the entrepreneur seed was planted Parents thought it was a scam, but George kept pursuing home-based business opportunities [00:05:22] The First Real Business: Supplements & The Internet Summer 1995: Started supplement business after seeing space ads in small business magazines Connected two trends: GNC's explosive growth + the internet's rising adoption First online business launched, didn't go well initially 2-3 years into college: Making as much as doctors while studying pre-med [00:06:46] The Weight Loss Empire & Early Lessons Dominated the keyword "weight loss" on GoTo.com for just 50 cents per click Built and eventually ran the first business into the ground, couldn't keep up with orders Lesson #1: Take your time, build infrastructure so you can scale appropriately Built Google AdSense business to seven figures by 2005-2006 [00:08:31] The Digital Marketing Agency Started agency helping clients with BSLs and one-click upsells in their infancy He was the bottleneck, quality controlling everything, no proper org chart Built a job with overhead, not a business [00:10:44] The $250 Million Supplement Company 10 years ago: Started supplement company with $5,000 seed money But George was working 100+ hours per week, burning midnight oil constantly Would pass out at his desk or stumble into bed, wake up 3-4 hours later and repeat "I was like a zombie for a good stretch of a couple of years" Money was great, but life was not enjoyable [00:14:21] The Buy Back Time Formula Birth Around 2018-2019: Applied systematic approach to buy back his time Removed himself as the bottleneck Implemented proper SOPs, documentation, training, and later AI Income went UP because he was no longer the bottleneck Bought back dozens of hours per week [00:16:41] Living the Freedom Lifestyle Friends noticed: "You're in Germany driving the Nürburgring, business still running, how?" 6-7 different people asked him to teach this Held workshop at his home to test if the marketplace wanted it Amazing response—decided to package it officially as Buy Back Time Formula [00:18:05] The Father-Son Story That Changed Everything The pivotal relationship that transformed George's entire approach 2015: George's father diagnosed with cancer in February Six months later, he was gone. "That's just how fast cancer can take you" Dad broke the news when George had just adopted his newborn son Leo George spent every day with his dad, driving 1.5 hours each way [00:20:18] The Deathbed Wisdom The million-dollar moment that changed everything Father's last words: "Don't miss Leo's games. I missed too many of yours." Hit George "like a ton of bricks" Brought closure—his dad acknowledged missing George's childhood games George realized: "I'm on pace to replicate the same mistake" [00:22:03] What Really Matters at the End Father never said on his deathbed: "I wish I'd seen one more patient" Never: "I wish I'd closed one more property" (he was in real estate too) Never: "I wish I'd taken that client call or upsold them" Only: "Are the people I love around me? I just need them right now" [00:22:52] Training Your Replacement Need focused attention on him or he'll get influence from somewhere else 2015-2018: George knew he had the problem but didn't have the solution yet It took 3 years for the solution to birth itself into something actionable [00:31:37] The 100-Hour Grind Reality Was working 80-100+ hours per week Weekends meant LESS interruptions, so worked even HARDER Wasn't healthy for mind, wasn't healthy for family Not a sustainable long-term strategy [00:32:33] Life After Buying Back Time Real freedom looks like: Now works 20-30 hours per week when in creation mode Can work as little as 5 hours per week when traveling Can turn phone off and check back tomorrow, nothing falls apart If something breaks, team handles it without him [00:33:08] God's Purpose Realized "I just feel like it's God's purpose of putting me on the planet to help share this" Secondary benefit: Make more money and nice lifestyle Primary benefit: Being with family for the moments that matter Non-negotiable: Not missing games, graduations, or special moments [00:35:42] Northern Michigan & Homeschool Freedom Bought property in Northern Michigan, turned it into successful Airbnb Teaching son how to negotiate real estate deals and assess properties Son is homeschooled, gets to tag along on their adventures Ultimate flexibility: "We're studying the Washington Monument this week. Let's go see it tomorrow" [00:37:20] The Buy Back Time Formula Available at buybacktimeformula.com Everyone's unique—different reasons for wanting to buy back time Some love working but need to cast vision instead of being in the weeds Focus on high-dollar things that move the needle Structure and confidence from someone who's been at it for 30 years KEY QUOTES "I was like a zombie for a good stretch of a couple of years. Money was great, income was great, but life was not enjoyable." - George Rivera "It's never too late to say, 'Hey, this needs to change 'cause I've already missed moments I'll never get back, but at least I did something about it.' The longer you wait, those missed moments rack up. We wanna be the one that experiences those moments. Not miss 'em." - George Rivera "I was inundated and I didn't know how to properly remove myself as being the bottleneck on a lot of things." - George Rivera CONNECT WITH GEORGE RIVERA
Welcome back to A Stride Above! In this episode, Dr. Alberto Rulan is joined by KC LaPierre, co-founder of the Institute of Applied Equine Podiatry, for a discussion on what truly goes into caring for a horse's foot.

Applied Intuition builds the kind of AI you don't see, but can't live without. Co-founders Qasar Younis and Peter Ludwig share how their $15 billion company powers vehicle intelligence across cars, trucks, tanks, mining equipment, and defense systems operating in some of the most demanding conditions on earth.They explain why combining AI with safety-critical systems raises the stakes, how a single mistake can destroy an entire company, and why so many autonomy startups ended up in the “graveyard.” The conversation explores the slow, methodical path to real autonomy, the hidden complexity of machines that run nonstop, and why consumer AI metaphors break down once software meets the physical world.Qasar and Peter also reflect on how Applied uses AI internally, how their principle of “radical pragmatism” keeps innovation grounded, and what it takes to move fast without breaking things when lives and livelihoods are on the line. From six-figure labor shortages in remote mines to the future of defense and logistics, this episode reveals how AI is quietly transforming the physical world — one carefully coded system at a time.Key Takeaways:Safety changes everything about AIWhen AI moves from the screen to the real world, the rules change. Qasar and Peter explain why building for trucks, tanks, and jets demands a different kind of discipline — one where precision and safety replace speed and iteration.The graveyard of autonomy is realThere's a long list of companies that underestimated what it takes to build safe, reliable autonomy. Applied Intuition's founders share what went wrong — and why moving slower has been their biggest advantage.Radical pragmatism is the hidden differentiatorInside Applied Intuition, “radical pragmatism” isn't a slogan — it's a practice. Qasar and Peter describe how it guides product decisions, culture, and leadership, helping them innovate in places where failure isn't an option.The next frontier of AI is off the screenFrom mines to military systems, the future of AI won't be chatbots — it will be machines that think, move, and decide in the physical world. Jeremy and Henrik reflect on how that shift raises the bar for builders, leaders, and the technology itself.Applied Intuition: http://applied.co/LinkedIn: linkedin.com/AppliedX: https://x.com/Applied00:00 Intro: Safety Critical Systems00:33 Meet the Founders of Applied Intuition01:09 Understanding Applied Intuition's Unique Approach03:02 The Human-Machine Teaming Concept07:26 Challenges in Autonomous Driving16:39 AI in Industrial Applications28:27 Future of Fighter Jets and AI29:50 AI in Applied: Coding Tools and Beyond33:16 Radical Pragmatism and AI Integration36:03 Challenges of AI Adoption in Large Organizations39:56 Human and Technical Challenges in AI42:02 Innovation and Organizational Structure48:38 Reflections on AI and Future Prospects

LBCF 11.1 - Those whom God effectually calleth, he also freely justifieth, not by infusing righteous-ness into them, but by pardoning their sins, and by accounting and accepting their persons as righteous; not for anything wrought in them, or done by them, but for Christ's sake alone; . . . but by imputing Christ's active obedience unto the whole law, and passive obedience in his death for their whole and sole righteousness by faith, which faith they have not of themselves; it is the gift of God. 2. A legal declaration of being righteous, not to make them righteous (sanctification). Lk. 7:29; Deut. 25:1; Prov. 17:15 B. JUSTIFICATION: HOW DOES IT OCCUR? 1. One lives a perfectly righteous life.

Make sure to stretch, drink water, and break out a pencil and paper for this week's episode of Schauer Thoughts because it will require active attention (you don't have to do anything I say, this is just a word of warning that there will be math in this episode and it's cruel to make someone listen to math without being able to write it down) because we're getting into working memory! If you have any difficulties with math, please do not be hard on yourself, it's had some wickedly bad instruction and PR, but I promise math is not the enemy! It's how we've all evolved to this point! Fun little resource before the resource list, if you like literature and you're math-curious, you should check out: The Meaning of Proofs: Mathematics as Storytelling by Gabriele Lolli. Also, good news for my fiction readers! Due to my lack of internal monologue I'm realizing I genuinely don't understand the flow of people's thoughts, so if you'd like to comment your favorite fiction book with an omniscient POV, I'd really appreciate it! I love sapphic romance, academia(?), appreciate a good classic, female lead, dark but also enlightening, anything in that general vicinity. Excited to pick up some recommendations! Thank you all for listening in on this week's communal Schauer!

In this episode, I sit down with my friend and interior designer Jameelah Divine, whose story left me speechless. We started by talking about creating peaceful spaces through design—but it quickly became so much more. Jamila opened up about losing her daughter, rebuilding her life after heartbreak and trauma, and finding God again through unimaginable pain. She shared how she created “The Case Method”—a way to design both your home and your life with intention, clarity, and faith.What really hit me was her story about her husband's near-death experience—a moment that tested her faith like never before—and how she found peace in surrendering to God's plan, even when she didn't understand it. This episode reminded me that healing isn't linear, and that peace doesn't come from perfection—it's something we cultivate, step by step, with faith and purpose.If this conversation touched your heart, please subscribe, rate, and share the show with someone who needs encouragement today.

Investing isn't just about returns—it's about reflecting what we truly value.Our faith is meant to guide every area of life, including how we invest. When our hearts are set on God, our investing reflects His priorities—caring for creation, serving our neighbor, and letting what we treasure shape how we steward His resources. Tim Macready joins us today to talk about a “theology of investing.”Tim Macready is Head of Global Advisory at BrightLight, a division of EverSource Wealth Advisors. A Theology of Investing: Bringing Faith to Financial DecisionsMost people view investing as a financial act—an attempt to grow wealth, manage risk, or secure a comfortable future. Yet Scripture invites us to see investing as something much deeper: a spiritual act rooted in stewardship, love, and worship.A theology of investing reimagines financial activity not as separate from faith but as an expression of it. It calls believers to bring their heart, head, and hands together, transforming investing from a pursuit of profit into a practice of discipleship.Theology simply means the study of God and how what we learn about Him shapes the way we live. Applied to investing, it means aligning financial decisions with biblical truths about creation, stewardship, and love for neighbor.Faith is not only a matter of belief—it's a matter of lived action. When we view investing through this lens, we begin to see it as part of our calling to manage God's resources wisely and to use them in ways that bring about human flourishing and reflect His goodness.The Creation Mandate and the Purpose of InvestingThe story begins in Genesis 1–2. Out of His divine goodness, God creates a world filled with potential and beauty, then entrusts humanity with the task of cultivating and developing what He made.Investing participates in that same creation mandate. It takes the resources God has provided and reallocates them so that they become productive—fueling innovation, creating jobs, and contributing to the flourishing of communities. Financial returns become a byproduct of faithful stewardship rather than the sole objective.Through investing, believers join God in bringing order, beauty, and abundance to His creation.Some assume investing is little more than glorified gambling, but the two could not be more different. Gambling is speculation—a zero-sum pursuit driven by chance. Investing, on the other hand, is a form of stewardship. It seeks to grow what God has entrusted by putting resources to work productively in the service of others.Faithful investing recognizes that capital is not an end in itself but a tool for participating in God's creative and redemptive work in the world.Loving God and Neighbor Through InvestmentWhen Jesus summarized the law, He tied together two inseparable commands: love God and love your neighbor (Matthew 22:37–39). Investing offers a tangible way to live out both.By directing capital toward enterprises that meet real needs, create employment, and improve lives, investors can participate in the biblical call to love their neighbor. Investing becomes a form of generosity—an intentional choice to place capital at risk so that others may benefit and communities may thrive.When guided by love, investing ceases to be a self-focused pursuit and becomes a practice of service and shared flourishing.In Matthew 6, Jesus teaches that “where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” That truth reveals not only that our spending reflects what we love, but also that our hearts are shaped by where we invest.Our financial choices form us. Every investment helps build something—industries, technologies, and cultures. Those choices shape what we value and the kind of world we participate in creating.If the heart is anchored in Christ, investing becomes a means to align one's desires with discipleship, ensuring that financial growth serves God's purposes and the good of others.In modern markets, investing often feels impersonal. Index funds and digital platforms can make financial activity seem detached from real lives. Yet every investment still represents a relationship—people on both sides working, creating, and depending on one another.Recovering this relational awareness reminds believers that investing is not merely an economic transaction. It's a moral and spiritual act that affects individuals and communities made in God's image.From Portfolio to WorshipScripture consistently warns of wealth's dangers—not because money itself is evil, but because it so easily tempts us to trust it instead of God. As C.S. Lewis observed, the comforts wealth provides can dull our sense of dependence on the Lord.Greed, the Bible says, is a form of idolatry (Colossians 3:5). When money becomes our source of security, it quietly replaces the Provider Himself. Biblical investing begins with the opposite conviction: everything belongs to God, and we remain utterly dependent on Him for every good gift.A single strategy or product does not define faithful investing. It is marked by intent—by the desire to align financial decisions with God's purposes.That may mean avoiding investments that exploit others or harm creation, or seeking out opportunities that promote dignity, justice, and flourishing. Sometimes it might even mean accepting lower returns for the sake of love.Ultimately, profit is more than numbers on a page—it represents the fruit of faithful stewardship in a mutually beneficial exchange that honors God and blesses others.When believers see investing as part of their discipleship, it transforms the act itself. No longer about accumulation, it becomes about participation—joining God's ongoing work of renewal in the world.Faithful investing asks deeper questions:How does this investment serve my neighbor?How does it reflect the beauty and justice of God's Kingdom?How does it shape my heart toward or away from Christ?When those questions guide our portfolios, investing becomes more than a financial decision—it becomes an act of worship.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm looking to tap into my home's equity to cover some needed repairs. My roof is nearly 20 years old, and the house also needs painting. I owe approximately $167,000, and the home is valued at around $375,000. I found a company that offers a credit card tied to home equity—no upfront cost —and they claim approval takes only 15 minutes. What do you think about this option?I have two kids in their early and mid-20s, and I'm encouraging them to start investing in a Roth IRA, even if it's just a small amount. Where can they open one without high fees eating into their contributions?
