Tiff and Kristy address why the doctor (or the practice lead or the OM) always end up getting sucked back in to answer questions they shouldn't have to. The pair also gives solutions on how to curb this automatic approach, including establishing clarity, providing the right resources, and being patient when things go wrong.

Kristy is full right now in the in the the recording of this podcast, but she is really awesome at sneaking in some room there too. We do take advantage of that sometimes. So Kristy, thank you for being here. If they don't know you, I hope they go and figure out who you are. They go scope you if you get some more Instagram follow requests or wherever you're at, just know that's my fault. So good morning Kristy. How are you today? DAT- Kristy (00:49) Good morning. It's a good morning. I love starting my day, actually starting my week and getting our time together because so many times we don't we don't get to work with each other. So yeah. Tiffanie (00:54) Yeah. I know. I agree. I agree. We have like one half hour a month that we pre schedule to make sure that we can connect. but I love that I do get my podcasting time with you guys too. There's more consultants now, so it's spread out a little bit thinner. but when I when I can, I love getting my time with you ladies. So thank you. Thank you for making this easy on me. I'm actually really excited for this Topic today. And just so you guys, you listeners, know the topics, they come from the marketing does a lot of research. Our marketing company, our marketing team within our company, does a lot of research on what some hot topics might be, what dentistry is going through right now, kind of just different areas and different facets of life. And so they do come up with some incredible, incredible topics that we love to spin off of. And with that, if there's ever anything that you guys are experiencing in your world, I want you to know Hello@TheDentalATeam.com is the easiest place to reach out to us or on our website, TheDentalATeam.com. There's a little like chat with us. You can reach out to us and let us know what you're experiencing. We are more than happy to help dive into your cases and kind of figure out what it is. But also that leads to some great podcast topics as well. So if there are things that you want to hear more of. or less of, by all means, please reach out to us, let us know what your thoughts are, because we'd be happy to add some things into the mix as well. So, Kristy, with that said, I'm really excited for today's topic. I think that this is something that no matter what time of year it is, is relevant. And I know that we work with a lot of leaders, a lot of CEO dentists, a lot of owners, a lot of leadership teams, office managers, regional managers. DSOs, like we work with a slew of ranges within the dental industry. And something that I think consistently comes back for all of us. And I think Kristy, you and I actually experience this with the level and the size of practices that we get. We experience it quite a bit. And we've experienced it in our own company. Kiera, I love you. We've experienced this a lot in our own company of DAT- Kristy (03:12) Ha ha ha. Tiffanie (03:16) not knowing where to go for a decision, so you go to the person that you know can make the decision, I guess is the best way to say it. And we've got a lot of doctors that sit in a dental chair, right? They're in their chair and they've got a drill in a hand and a mirror in a hand and their loops on their head and they're drilling. And they've got somebody in the background asking them where they order their paper from, right? Or something, right? Like the the plumber. Well what plumber should I call? Because the Toilets plugs. Like I there's a ridiculous amount of questions that are going on behind the doctor. and it and Kristy, the conversation today is is that the right person? Right? And why? Because I think we both get this question from our doctors, why are they asking them? Right? I my doctors are constantly like, Why me? Why me? Like, well, you're really special, right? Like they I trust you so much. You're just so special. And a lot of it's self-created. We can dive into that. But when we're when we're really truly looking at the end all be all, and you've got your dentist and you've got your CEO, you've got your your different positions within the practice, what are the most common reasons or let's go off of one, Kristy, that you see most frequently? Why is the dentist the one that they go to? DAT- Kristy (04:13) Yeah. Yeah. I love this topic as well, Tiff. And I think just for clarity, this can even work for your your practice leads or OM, you know, a lot of times, I I I told you earlier in one of our podcasts that we create our own problems. And I believe that a lot of times this is our own creation too. Again, not not by choice, you know what I mean? But we have to paint clarity. Tiffanie (04:47) Absolutely. DAT- Kristy (05:08) We have to paint clarity for our team on what things they are free to handle and what things you want coming to you. You know, number one, paint that clarity. And then number two, give them the resources to do it. I'm gonna try to remember the saying, but it it goes something about, you know, our job as leaders is to know how few decisions we have to make truly in a day. And maybe that's scary, right? That's a scary thought, but Tiffanie (05:16) Yeah. DAT- Kristy (05:37) Truly, as the leader, I think you have to paint that vision for your teams and then just continue to reinforce that. Because a lot of times your team's gonna have better answers than you do, even. So clarity, yeah, one hundred percent. Clarity number one. Clarity number one for sure. Tiffanie (05:51) Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And resources. Yeah. And I think within that making sure that you have clarity on what w the directions that you're going for one thing, right? Like what how do I make this decision? Because I'm I'm making this decision based on on the end goal for the practice, but also clarity within every job that's within the practice. Like who who would make this decision if not the dentist? So when or if not for for us it would be if not Kiera, right? And I think that's One, it's very easy to see. It's easy for us to see. So it's easy for us to speak to that within our own company. And then we get the luxury of seeing it within dental practices to speak to that. But just truly know, like you said, it it works for every leader in the practice office managers or whatever. But you guys, this is transferable to any business structure because, you know, unbeknownst to you, you own a business. And so your business structure is not dentistry. Your business structure is business. And when we can realize that and take the dentistry out of the business and let the business be a business, I think that's where you guys really truly will thrive. You get so lost in trying to make dentistry the business, but dentistry is what you're doing. You're providing dentistry. The business has to stand outside of the dentistry. They can't Dentistry can't be the business anymore. Maybe a long time ago it could. And you know, maybe you're in your grandfather's practice and your di your father was there and you've inherited some routines and some systems, but the world is different in 2026 and whatever future year you're listening to this in, the world is different, and you have to be able to separate those things. And Kristy, that's I think where that clarity comes in is the business. Where is the business going? Because the dentistry is gonna be dentistry and the dentistry is gonna follow the trends of dental. we're gonna, you know, we're gonna get all the tech, we're gonna get all of those things, but where is the business going so that the dentistry can still happen is huge. And having the clarity around that and the clarity around who would make this decision if not the owner is huge. And to your point, that's where the leads come in, the office manager and like if you're If you need a plumber, right? Dentists, owners, if you're the one who has to make that decision, go back to Kristy's first comment. Like, what dis what decisions do I need to make? Is it the most important decision of your day to figure out which plumber, which AC repair guy, which I don't know, carpet cleaner? Like, is that a decision that you want to make and need to make? And Kristy, I think that's where that space of like, no, actually, this would be my manager. or this would be our clinical director, that that has to be stated and clear so that an office manager or a dental assistant knows who do I go to. DAT- Kristy (09:01) One hundred percent and document those things. I mean, maybe you do have a doctor that's like, My brother's the plumber, so we always call my brother. Then have a list of those items with the numbers and who to contact, you know. But yeah, and to your point too, Tiff, I think so many times we don't create the space for our doctors or leaders to have these conversations. Like running down the hall in between patients is never. the time to do it. I mean doctors say yes to so many things they would not have said yes to just because it's like you know right there and I have to handle it but truly block time to have discussions that are truly the things that need to come to doctor to make the decision. But also as leaders watch how you preface the question. You know I need to call a plumber. This is what I was thinking. You know Tiffanie (09:35) Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah. DAT- Kristy (09:58) And and then to that point too, Tiff, painting the clarity. If you have a a go-to that you want, make sure that that's vocalized. But then also going back to leaders, how many times do we just answer the question versus asking our team members, what do you think? And I know I hear this day in and day out. It's faster just to do it myself, right? It's faster to do it myself. But I think it was you, Tiff, that told me choose your hard. And it's Britt. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Choose your hard. And the time you take in the very beginning to train your team, this is how we do it, will go so much further in the long run. So give your team the opportunity to answer the question because then you're you're making them think for themselves and not rely on you. Tiffanie (10:31) It's Britt. Britt told everyone, but I love that. I use it all the time. DAT- Kristy (10:57) Again, going back to us creating our own problems, when we answer for our for them, you're not you're not letting them rise to the occasion and grow to the level that you're looking for. Tiffanie (11:08) Yeah. I completely agree. And I think this is something that's so relatable for parents. because in my opinion, I say this a lot, and I think we are people are people and we learn the way we learn, we we hear the way we le we hear and we can grow. We do grow and we physically grow, but at the bottom of it all, we're still people. And when we again like when we treat things so differently, we think, they're adults, they should They should know why. I have so many dentists, by the way, who have said that to me, or so many office managers that's like, why do I need to spell this out? They're an adult. Why don't they just know? And I'm like, because they're trying to figure out what you want. They're not trying to figure out how to solve this. Because if it were outside of your dental practice and they were at home, or if they were on the side of this side of the street in a broke down car, they would figure it out. They're not, they're not incapable. They don't know what you want. And so trying to figure out what someone else wants, trying to intuit the right answer when you have not enough direction to know, but you're trying to please, you're trying to do it correct, you're trying to not ruin a business with a plumber decision, you're gonna just ask the person. And when you just answer, just like a parent, if I just answer every single time, am I giving Brody the space to grow and to learn things on his own when he was little? He used to get frustrated with me, then he kinda he kinda just learned that I was always gonna say it. He would say, Mom mom, how, you know, how did they do this? How did they build that? How did they and he's in the backseat of the car just seeing everything. Mom mom, how did they, how did they, how did they? And I would say, buddy, what do you think? And he'd just come up with these incredible ways that they built the building, that they put the traffic lights in, that they, you know, and I'm like, gosh, that's really smart. Do you also think that And within that thought process of how do we grow our children to become positive parts of humanity, right? And independent to go live on their own and add value to the world. We're doing the same thing for our team members. So if we want our team members to be a valuable piece of humanity and add positive impact to our business, we have to grow them. DAT- Kristy (13:14) Indeed. Yeah. And yeah. Tiffanie (13:34) and allow them the space to grow in the same capacity that we do our own children. Otherwise they're gonna stay with us forever. Right? If I always clean up after the kids, they're gonna have messy houses later, right? And I'm gonna go over to their home and I'm gonna be like, what the heck? What did I did I teach you nothing? No, I taught you that I'll clean it. DAT- Kristy (13:38) Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Tiff, I love that you talk about that. I know you just have Brody, but you also have some significant others in your life. But I remember even with my son and daughter, I thought my secondborn wasn't gonna talk. And it wasn't that he wasn't gonna talk, it's because my daughter was talking for him. And so many parents can relate to that. And so your analogy is like spot on. But also I you know, I want leaders to hear this loud and clear. Tiffanie (13:58) Mm-hmm. Yeah. DAT- Kristy (14:21) They're gonna get it wrong. They're gonna get it wrong and they're gonna do it different than you. But please give them the space to do it because so many times it goes back to your Brody's mind. They can be more brilliant than we are. I'll never forget the story. I had a colleague t talk to me about buying a copier. The dentist was gonna go get this y you you probably remember back in the days the big Pitney bows, like I mean, it was on, it was a cart on wheels thing, you know. Tiffanie (14:22) Mm-hmm. They're huge. Yeah. Wheels, yup. DAT- Kristy (14:50) Yeah, and they were spendy like a lot of money and he was gonna go buy this. And then actually what happened is he did buy it and the team wasn't using it and he was very, very upset. So then it taught him a valuable lesson that the next time that copier went out, he went to them and asked them the features that they wanted, or better yet, just give them a budget to work within and let them go buy it themselves, right? Because So many times, doctors, we try to make those decisions or as leaders, we try to make those decisions. we're gonna cut back our hours. you're gonna work this time to this time. You know what? Just put it out to your team. This is what we're doing. We need to fill these hours. What what can you guys come up with? And nine times out of ten, they're gonna come up s with something better than we can as leaders. Tiffanie (15:42) Yeah, and Kristy, to your point, I think the copy machine is is brilliant. That's a brilliant thought process because on the flip side of that, our dentists right now, our owners are going, Yeah, but he was trying to do he was he got the best of the best to do the best thing for the team. He's trying to he's trying to do something. And so many of our our leaders come back to us and they're like, gosh, I'm just not appreciated. They don't care that I put so much time and energy into picking out the best copying machine that had the best features and was going to save them time and it was going to do all these things for them and they didn't even use it. They don't care. And it's not that they don't care, right? It's not that our kids don't care that we slave over dinner every night and then do the dishes and then make sure that their laundry is done. Like they don't, it's not that they don't care. It's that they don't there's not value and appreciation on it because they don't know what they don't know the value of it. And when they go and they're able to go Do the research and find the coffee machine that they want, they're like, this is really cool. I'm gonna use it. Thank you so much, Doc, for allowing us to get this. Right. And I think it goes back to like a goes back to compliments, right? It feels so much better to give a compliment than to receive a compliment. And when you receive something, somebody's like, here, use this coffee machine. You're like, cool, thanks. Like, I don't know how to respond to that, right? Like, okay, thank you. DAT- Kristy (16:47) Yep. Tiffanie (17:07) But when you're like, my gosh, we found the best copy machine. This is gonna save us so much time. This is gonna be incredible. They're actually gonna use it. DAT- Kristy (17:15) Yeah, I love that you make that statement because Tiff, we believe in meeting with our teams one-on-one. And I love the feedback loop, like reinforce the things that are good. So when your team does get it right, recognize it. What gets rewarded gets repeated, I like to say. And the things that maybe need guidance or development when they do miss the mark, approach it with curiosity instead of like, what the heck were you thinking? Why did you do that? Hey, out of curiosity, Tiff, will you share with me how did you come up with that decision? You know, and then use it as an opportunity to guide the outcome. So again, if it was my blood, my brother is the plumber and that's who I wanted you to call, can you share with me how you made the decision to call ABC plumbing? You know, where did you come up with that? And then re guide them to the outcome you're looking for. So that feedback is is critical. Yeah. Tiffanie (18:11) I agree. DAT- Kristy (18:12) And I don't know a team member that walks in the door and says, I wanna make my doctor's life hell today, you know? So Tiffanie (18:17) Yes, I agree. I agree. And the way you said the curiosity of like tell me, tell me how we got here. And there's been so many times, Kristy, even just like with Brody, but with team members too, where I've said, tell me more about that. Like help me understand. Because my brain is my brain is focused on what I thought the outcome was going to be and what it should have been. And if I stay stuck there, you're wrong no matter what. But when I go in with curiosity and I say DAT- Kristy (18:43) Yeah. Tiffanie (18:46) Tell me more. Like, I want to know that side. Oftentimes, I would say at least 80% of the time, I'm like, cool. Actually, yeah, let's try it. Like, great, that's not what I thought I would have done, but I love that option. Let's explore it. But when we go in so hard with the like, you're wrong, you didn't make the decision I wanted you to, again, back to the beginning, it is nearly impossible to make a spot on decision based on what. DAT- Kristy (18:54) Okay, yeah. Yeah. Tiffanie (19:16) some like intuitively knowing what someone wants you to actually do. It's so hard. DAT- Kristy (19:20) Yeah, too. I was gonna say to your point with that, going back to that too, is we could actually shut down our team with those remarks because it's like, what were you thinking? Now I'm like fearful to even try to make a decision, you know, so thing. Tiffanie (19:29) Hands down. Okay. And I'm gonna come to you with everything. Ever the pencil that I order is gonna come to you because I never want to feel like that again. Immediately my brain is gonna say, Well, never gonna feel like that again. So we're gonna do the polar opposite of what I just did. We're gonna overcompensate and now you're going to be making every minor decision possible in this company. DAT- Kristy (19:56) Yeah, one hundred percent. It seems so easy and I mean I wish it was that easy, but truly slow down and and ask a question and approach from curiosity, it's gonna get you a lot further for sure. Tiffanie (20:10) Totally agree. Yeah. So actionable pieces. I hope you guys loved this as much as we loved doing it. Kristy, I know I am like I could I could do this one for hours. So I love the psychological pieces of it and communication is I think both of our jam. So I know we can go on forever. Actionable items, I would say job descriptions, clear job descriptions and roles. I think decision trees and and also organizational charts. So who DAT- Kristy (20:20) Yeah. Tiffanie (20:40) is responsible for what that goes into your job description as well, but who can I go to? Like who's my next in line that would be able to get me this answer? And then learning how to have that positive feedback and being in the question. Like how how can you ask more questions to understand rather than being in the decision already and judging? Kristy, anything you can think of that I missed there within those actionable pieces? DAT- Kristy (21:06) No, Tiff, truly not. I just think it's a muscle that we have to work. And I will also say, like, my greatest performing teams have developed this type of hierarchy, if you will say, because it helped and it tethers the team to them. It really does. So if you don't want team turnover, you're allowing your people to grow in a way that that Tiffanie (21:24) Yeah, I agree. DAT- Kristy (21:31) They need to grow and they want to grow. And when you master this skill of 'cause it really is a skill set, when you master it, it's a win win all the way around. Tiffanie (21:43) Totally agree. I completely agree. Thank you, Kristy. And I know you work on this with all of the leaders that you work with because whether you're really great at it or not, there's always room for growth, there's room for better understanding, and there's room for revisiting. We are huge, huge proponents of relearning and going back to the things that work to get you where you are, and then also integrating and implementing and changing new policies and procedures. So I love it. Thank you, Kristy, so much for being here with us today. listeners. When you decided that you loved this, I hope you went and you clicked that five star and gave us a nice review.

The conversation explores soft disclosure, Genesis 6, the spiritual framework behind the phenomenon, and why so many modern alien narratives raise questions about the gospel, deception, and the end times.Doc and Ryan also dig into how Christians can engage these topics without fear, why open dialogue matters more than outrage, and how curiosity can become a doorway to meaningful conversations about faith.If you're interested in UFOs, biblical worldview, disclosure, ancient mysteries, or the intersection of theology and modern culture, this episode is for you.Timestamps:0:00 Intro1:45 Welcome to The Prometheus Lens Podcast3:22 Ryan Pelton's story5:13 The journey into podcasting and Genesis 614:31 Writing a book on aliens and occult themes17:53 A 12-point test for evaluating alien theories25:48 Fallen angels, interdimensional beings, and more33:14 Lou Elizondo, disclosure, and biblical framing55:30 Why disclosure may be happening now66:44 Ryan's book, The Ryan Files, and where to find him====================Find Ryan Pelton:YouTube: youtube.com/@theRyanFilesWebsite: theryanfiles.com====================
"Doc, do I need to take this forever?" It's one of the most common questions I hear in my office, whether it's someone's very first visit or someone who's already lost 30, 40, even 80 pounds and is feeling great. In this episode, I break down why your body fights so hard to regain weight after you lose it, and why that's biology, not failure. I walk through the new ATTAIN Maintain trial, a study of 376 adults who had already lost significant weight on tirzepatide or semaglutide, testing whether switching to an easier once-daily oral GLP-1 could help them keep the weight off, instead of just asking whether stopping medication causes regain. Maintenance isn't about staying on one medication forever. It's about having an individualized, active plan, and the ATTAIN Maintain data gives us more options than ever to build one. Episode Highlights: Why your metabolism and hunger hormones fight to reverse weight loss Lessons from the SURMOUNT-4 trial on what happens when treatment stops completely Inside the ATTAIN Maintain trial design and who was studied The weight maintenance results: oral medication vs. placebo Why maintenance therapy doesn't have to look like the treatment that got you there What actually goes into a sustainable long-term plan beyond medication Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

In Part 5 of our “Years of Lead” series on “No Way, Jose!”, host Jose Galison sits down again with parapolitical researcher Doc Inferno to examine the explosive 1978 kidnapping of Aldo Moro by the Red Brigades. Episode NWJ868 covers the dramatic events surrounding the abduction itself and pauses for important context on who Aldo Moro truly was: his political vision, his key allies (including connections to Palestinian factions), and the powerful enemies aligned against him — most notably figures like Henry Kissinger. The conversation paints a vivid picture of the high-stakes world of Italian politics at the height of the Cold War.This episode masterfully sets the stage for the tragic conclusion to come in the next installment, while unpacking the personal rivalries, ideological conflicts, and international intrigue that made the Moro kidnapping far more than a simple terrorist act. Jose Galison and Doc Inferno deliver sharp analysis and engaging storytelling that connects the dots between domestic militancy and global power plays. Whether you're deep into the series or just joining, Pt 5 delivers crucial historical insight you won't want to miss.Subscribe to Doc's Channel- https://www.youtube.com/@UCQC_OpQR9aMgA-86rufjHyQPlease consider supporting my work-Patreon- https://www.patreon.com/nowayjose2020Only costs $2/month and will get you access to episodes earlier than the publicNo Way, Jose!

After doing more of them than I can count, Kevin and I finally sat down and walked through exactly how we handle every single one, from the moment a tenant gives notice to the day we hand a new tenant their keys.I'm covering the non-negotiable safety and maintenance checks we run every time, the paint and flooring calls that make a unit feel brand new without blowing the budget, and the deep cleaning details most landlords skip but shouldn't. We also get into how we decide when to start marketing a vacant unit, and the legal check most landlords forget before they ever post a new listing.And of course, we share a few of our own turnover stories along the way, including the one that's still, hands down, our most expensive turnover ever.What You'll Learn in This Episode· The safety checks we run on every single unit before handing over new keys· Our approach to paint and flooring, and when a full replacement is actually worth it· The deep cleaning details that make the biggest difference to a prospective tenant· How we decide when to start marketing a vacant unit· Why your tenant screening criteria needs a fresh look before every new listing· The lease and move-in steps that keep your turnover moving instead of stalling out Episodes & Resources MentionedEpisode 7: A Guide to Move Out Procedures and Security DepositsEpisode 23 & 24: Marketing Your Rental Property (2-Part Series, starting at EP23)Episode 28: The Cash Reserves Blueprint: Protecting & Expanding Your PortfolioEpisode 32-34: Our Lease and Addendums Masterclass (starts at EP32)Episode 55: Preventative Maintenance That Brings Peace of MindEpisode 124: How to Shoot Rental Property Photos That Get AttentionEpisode 128: AI Tools for LandlordsKwikset Re-Key SetKwikset Re-Key “How To” VideoFire Escape LadderGas Shut-Off WrenchTouch-Up Paint Cups“Welcome” Toilet Paper StickersConnect with Us:

So much went on in this episode, I had to say a little prayer at the end. We did a blind from DOC and lets just say it turned the episode into a real thing. Hope you enjoy.Patreon.com/offtopicwhiskeyhttps://www.instagram.com/zsmithwhiskeyandmixology?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==Badmotivatorbarrels.com/shop/?aff=3Blue corn has emerged as a major trend in craft distilling, celebrated for introducing complex, bold alternative flavor profiles to American whiskey.Unlike mass-produced yellow dent corn (Yellow No. 2), which is maximized for crop yield and ethanol efficiency, heirloom blue corn varieties have been selected for generations entirely for human consumption and superior taste.Flavor ProfileBlue corn shifts the sensory boundaries of traditional whiskey, typically exhibiting the following characteristics:Earthy and Savory: It is notably less sweet and significantly more rustic, introducing deep, minerals-and-soil qualities to the spirit.Nutty and Oily: Due to a rich concentration of natural oils in the grain, blue corn creates a highly viscous, velvet mouthfeel. It often tastes of roasted nuts, toasted sugar, popcorn, and cocoa.Dark Fruits: Many distillers and reviewers note distinct dark fruit or "purple" traits, including heavy undertones of blackberry, plum, and blueberry compote.Challenges in DistillingWhile it creates an exceptional spirit, blue corn is notoriously difficult to work with for two main reasons:Low Yield: The heirloom crop generates far less fermentable starch per acre than industrial corn, making it far more expensive to source.The "Masa" Effect: During the mashing process, the heavy proteins and starches in blue corn create a thick, sticky paste (similar to tamale or tortilla dough). This frequently clogs distillation equipment and pipes.Prominent Distilleries and BottlesSeveral innovative distilleries have built high-profile releases around this grain:Balcones Distillery: The Texas craft pioneer was among the first to popularize the grain with their iconic Balcones Baby Blue. It is crafted from 100% roasted blue flint corn, displaying a heavy, buttery profile.Still Austin: Known for its highly coveted, seasonal winter Bottled-in-Bond Blue Corn Bourbon, which balances a high-rye mash bill with deep blueberry and brown sugar notes.Bluegrass Distillers: Based in Kentucky, their Blue Corn Bottled-in-Bond features a 75% blue corn mash bill that yields an earthy, bakery-fresh croissant and spice flavor profile.Smokeye Hill & Jeptha Creed: Both distilleries have captured industry attention with high-proof, single-barrel, or specialty heirloom blue corn expressions that lean heavily into savory old-school profiles.Mashing and distilling blue corn requires significant deviation from standard yellow corn workflows due to the unique structural properties of the grain.The Mashing ProcessTraditional raw corn consists of tightly packed, small starch granules that require substantial heat energy to unravel. Blue corn, specifically heirloom varieties like Hopi or Mexican atole, possesses a dense protein matrix and higher natural oil content that drastically alters mashing dynamics.High-Temperature GelatinizationBefore enzymes can convert corn starches into fermentable sugars, the grain must be gelatinized.The Workflow: Milled blue corn is mixed with water and heated to roughly 190°F to 200°F (88°C to 93°C). It must be held at this near-boiling temperature for 30 to 60 minutes to completely fracture the starch structures.The "Masa" Problem: As blue corn hits its gelatinization threshold, it binds water intensely. It transforms almost instantly into a thick, purple concrete-like paste. If left unchecked, this paste will burn onto the bottom of the mash cooker or seize up mechanical stirring paddles.

Doc checks in live from an airport layover terminal, sparking a huge conversation about how massive World Cup crowds are completely taking over cities—and the viral fan videos that have a song permanently stuck in Howard's head. But the real breakdown happens in the garage. Farva makes his grand return with massive personal family news, followed by an ultimate truck-nightmare story about a literal 5-cent part failing at the worst possible moment. JS counters with his own catastrophic F-150 breakdown that required some insane farm-style towing maneuvers, leading to a deep dive into his massive 24-vehicle property graveyard and the endless search for parts. Plus, Mark Kidder pays his final respects to a permanently closed Grand Forks landmark, shares a bizarre update on a massive surprise check he just received in the mail, and looks into the strict international soccer rules where covering your mouth can get you instantly penalized.

Specialist MPI investigators have been combing the Petone beach where a bird infected with the H-5 virus was found. The ministry says there is no evidence of any mass mortality in wildlife or transmission between wild birds in Aotearoa. There is currently no detection in poultry. DOC had already started vaccinating some of our endangered birds before the H-5 arrived in New Zealand. DOC Senior Technical Advisor Suliana Teasdale spoke to Lisa Owen.
Ronnie Platt has loved music for his entire life, and up until 2014 he was living a double life. He was driving a truck for the first 8 hours of the day and then he was lead singing in a band for the second 8 hours of the day. But then in 2014 something happened that completely changed his life, Steve Walsh retired from Kansas. All of a sudden the legendary band Kansas needed a new lead singer. The band that brought the world Carry On Wayward Son, Dust In the Wind, Point of No Return and so many other hits needed a singer. Ronnie took a chance and decided to Facebook message their guitarist, just a couple weeks later he was leading them out onstage in Oklahoma City. Ronnie has been leading Kansas now for more than a decade all across the country and rocking millions of fans along the way. He's also recorded two studio albums with Kansas since 2014. Kansas is back on the road and they're gonna be in Florida the 8th and 9th of August! Ronnie was nice enough to stop by the show and talk a while. Doc and Ronnie talk about getting out on the road in a bus with Kansas, first playing music, playing the trumpet, switching over to trombone, finding prog rock, loving rock singers like Lou Gramm and Geddy Lee, working as a truck driver, getting hired by Kansas, finding younger fans who love Kansas and much much more! Meanwhile on the rest of the show Doc gives the world a PSA, don't go to Singapore and think that you're going to get away with mischief...it's just a bad decision.

Preparations to protect our native wildlife against bird flu are said to be well in hand. A seabird found on Wellington's Petone Beach last week tested positive for the H5N1 strain. There's no evidence of widespread transmission, but it's considered inevitable New Zealand will have to learn to live with it. New Zealand's one of the last countries the disease has reached. Biosecurity Minister Andrew Hoggard told Mike Hosking officials have been building protections, as it could be here to stay if it doesn't die out. He says DOC has been vaccinating some critical breeding populations so if they were hit, they should stay safe. Hoggard says the key response for most Kiwis is reporting when they see dead birds, as it helps them build a picture of where the disease is.

Cathy and Todd discuss Back to the Future for their summer blockbuster series, Robert Zemeckis’s 1985 time-travel classic that took nearly 40 rejections to get made before Steven Spielberg got involved. They discuss how Eric Stoltz was originally cast as Marty McFly and shot for five weeks before being replaced by Michael J. Fox, who then secretly filmed the movie at night while shooting Family Ties by day. On a $19 million budget, the film grossed nearly $400 million and became a cultural touchstone, complete with an uncredited Huey Lewis cameo and a Crispin Glover lawsuit that changed how Hollywood handles an actor’s likeness. They dig into why it still resonates including the butterfly-effect plot, the idea of meeting your parents as flawed kids just like you, and Doc’s closing line — “your future hasn’t been written yet” — as the real heart of the film.

But once you I feel like when you're in the heat when heat is such a normal everyday occurrence, ⁓ living in Phoenix area, when you go to other places like hot is just hot and it we didn't feel quite as affected. But then coming home, this like 101 yesterday felt like 120. Without that humidity, it really is a different it is a different kind of heat. So I I feel you. But you've got your pool And you've had a ton of pool time, which is awesome and I love I love having you here in Arizona. DAT- Kristy (02:19) Yeah, me too. And it's I agree with you, Tiff. Everybody's like, it's so hot there. And I'm like, but it's hot here. When you get that humidity and stuff other places, it's like it's it's so different. Tiffanie (02:20) Good. Good. Yeah. Yes, yes. We had ⁓ some family here over the weekend and one of them said, Yeah, it's hot. He's from Austin. He's like, But you can breathe here. He's like in Austin, it gets so thick you can't breathe. And I was like, This is very true. We can breathe. It does feel like an oven when you're baking those those cookies, you know, you open the oven and it comes straight at your face, but you know, hot is hot. So I agree. Mildish summer but super hot still. And ⁓ with the summer upon us and beautiful weather, we do love the heat. We do like to get out of town, ⁓ go see some water, some oceans, or really just hang out in our pools. So we do get the summer slumps here in Arizona as well. But I think a lot of the country ⁓ they're really, really traveling a ton. We get a ton of visitors over the summer, ⁓ which is wild, but we really do from like March to November get a lot of travelers here in Arizona. So With that said, we know that schedules can really fall apart. Even here in Arizona, they do. Unless you're a pediatric practice, my pediatric practices are thriving during the summer because parents are getting all the kids' stuff done. and probably my ortho practices as well. Kristy, you probably have worked with a few of those practices who are probably thriving right now, and I hope thriving the rest of the year. But for those practices that are really, really having that like summer slump. We thought we'd give some ideas, some things we work with with with our practices every single day ⁓ here at the Dental A Team. So gosh, Kristy, some of the pieces that I see and I and I think honestly, May this year was was weird for a lot of our clients. I think across the Dental A Team, we all kind of all of us consultants said, Are you guys experiencing this? Did your practices have this? And May just kind of was a weird month. It was a down month for a lot of practices. DAT- Kristy (04:17) Yeah, yeah. Tiffanie (04:19) And I think a lot of people went on vacations. So for whatever reason, June was a little bit better, but we're into July now and we can kind of see those summer slumps hit July, August. And then in September for most of the country, Arizona, we start going back to school next week, which is wild, mid-July. But for most of the country, they're going back to school end of August, ⁓ towards like beginning to mid September. So we see this weird slump for the next few months. And Kristy, I thought it would be interesting for us to really kind of dive into some things that we can do as proactive measurements and then also reactive measurements as these things come up. Kristy, I think that dentistry is super reactive. ⁓ and we tend to like sit around and wait. We don't even realize that we're doing it, but we're waiting. We're reactive. We're reacting to decay. We're reacting to periodontal disease. We're reacting to patient scheduling, the patient's canceling, to the phones ringing, to DAT- Kristy (05:00) True. Tiffanie (05:16) someone needing something from us. Everything is like a reactionary process, but I really love putting in some proactive measurements to give us back some of that control. I think, Kristy, that is you thrive in all of the areas, but I really think that you thrive in some of these proactive measurements because I I think you're so calm. And and I think both of us thrive in a sense of peace. And for us, those proactive spaces and controlling as much as we possibly can, like why wouldn't you do it if it's available? So I think that that for you is something that keeps that sense of peace going for you. With that said, there are some pieces that you've worked really hard on in your career becoming a freaking rock star at. So I would love nothing more than to hear from you on how you help guide your teams and your practices in making sure that they have a schedule, that their schedule is working for them, you know, no matter what time of year it is. What are some pieces that you love to work on with your clients? DAT- Kristy (06:24) Yeah, well for one thing, Tiff, you know, we we love to project out our year. And so in projecting out the year, we can see those trends of the time of year where maybe, you know, we all like to think of September, but it doesn't have to be just that time of year. You know, there are some areas of the country that maybe ⁓ people go more camping and ⁓ different activities that Tiffanie (06:41) Yeah. Uh-huh. DAT- Kristy (06:53) affect their schedule, right? So with that being said, I love to have a templated schedule that can meet the needs of the practice. If we if we have a scheduling template in place, at least we're doing our part to try to control it the best we can. And so with that too, I always like to think of what big procedures maybe could we drive during that time. You know, maybe it's ortho starts or maybe it's a big case, you know Because again, from the business owner, the bills don't stop. We have those demands to meet, even if maybe we're closed for a week during that summer month. Tiffanie (07:33) Yeah. Yeah, I completely agree. I had a client ask me a few weeks ago why like what else does block scheduling do? If we're already if we're full, right? If our schedule is full and we're getting close to goals, like aside from there being a template that shows where things go and it helps people to be able to schedule, because that's something I love is the the training of the schedule or the ⁓ removing the thought. process of trying to figure out where to schedule someone. I love where can we simplify things so that I can use my brain power in something else. So I had a client the other day say, you know, okay tip, like try to convince me, why else? Why else block scheduling or productive day scheduling? So Kristy, what is your what is your take on it? Because you've spent a lot of years working specifically in that realm of productive scheduling. DAT- Kristy (08:24) Yeah. To that point, I I think for the team members, we have to remember that's our sanity. The schedule is our day-to-day operations. And so when we say it's been a chaotic day, truly we probably have to reflect back on ourselves and see what did we do to create that that chaotic day? And remember Just because we may have seen 30 patients in one day doesn't mean we were productive. And so having that scheduling template is going to give us the best outcome possible for our day. And like you said, Tiff, if we have it plug and play and we teach team members these are the type of things that we put in this type of block, we're gonna we're gonna have a better outcome. And yes. The component we don't control necessarily is the people, right? But if we build it to have the best outcome, we're certainly gonna be far better off in the long run than we would have been without having. You know, I always like to say if you and I, Tiff, are gonna drive from here to New York, if we don't have GPS, it's gonna be a crazy drive. We may be be going back roads when we didn't need to. So Tiffanie (09:17) Yeah. Okay. DAT- Kristy (09:40) Again, think of your schedule that way. We're formulating it in the best possible outcome. And again, when we have those slump months, we can change our template for that time to make sure we ensure or to ensure we have the best outcome for our day. Tiffanie (09:58) Yeah, completely. I agree. I love your GPS analogy. That one always makes me really happy. Especially because my internal GPS is wild and I would be going like I'd end up in California real fast. Like five hours in, I'm like, I'm at the coast. Like I would be in San Diego. So I I do love that one. Now with the productive scheduling as well, I love rules, right? I love their I love it being easy. And if we're gonna implement a system, we have to have tools that do make it easy that don't, they're not causing more chaos. And and for the short term, right? Implementing something new, there's always gonna be a little bit of chaos. There's always gonna be hurdles, you're always gonna find those spaces. But in the long run, it should make your life easier. And something I come across with that, with the block scheduling is that people become very black and white about it because it's a block and they're like, well, we didn't find a crown, right? We didn't find a crown, so we have a hole in the schedule. And I love and doctors are fearful of that, right? And and office managers. But mostly doctors are like, okay, cool, but I don't want them to not schedule because they didn't find it. And I'm like, well, that's the wrong thought process, right? We need to back up a couple steps and say, this is our ideal. This is what we want it to look like. And in the event that we cannot fill it, something hasn't come across, which is a completely different episode, different podcast. If you're not finding it, you're not getting it in your schedule. That's a that's a completely different subject. But if that event has occurred, you didn't fill that hole, then I usually say, Kristy, and I I think we're probably on the same page here, I usually say 48 hours ahead. So two days ahead, fill it with something. I don't want you to put like, don't delete a crown block for an occlusal filling. If you don't have to, like that would be like today, maybe. ⁓ but DAT- Kristy (11:36) Mm-hmm. Tiffanie (11:45) Fill it with something so that we're productive no matter what. And we might not reach goal because we didn't fill it with what we needed to within that production, but we're still a little bit closer and it allows us for same day treatment as well. Do you feel the same, Kristy? DAT- Kristy (11:58) Yeah, I 100% feel the same way. We have to make our minds go back to when COVID happened and we think of those non-emergent things. And yes, when you have a good templated schedule, you probably are gonna push out some of those occlusal fillings, Tiff, like you were talking about. And it's okay. Unless it was like so blown out, which your doctor's gonna tell you we need to get them in sooner than later. But in those instances, the great news is you're gonna build up your priority list. Tiffanie (12:13) Mm-hmm. DAT- Kristy (12:28) too. And so when those summer slumps hit, now we've got other other options to choose from as well. So I love that you made that point. And and it goes back to all of us forming those agreements together. And we all have to honor what we said. Tiffanie (12:45) Mm-hmm. Yeah. I love nothing more than an ASAP list. I used to live and breathe in that ASAP list because it was just so easy. And the way that we do our scheduling at Dental A Team in general, with you know, notating like how how early or how soon we want them to come back, putting dates on it, and then also with the block scheduling, all of those pieces help us to build that. And that's that's another thing I get asked by clients all the time is okay, well, what if you know, we we are too full and we can't see them. We don't have it available. We you tell within the next two weeks and my next appointment is three weeks. And I'm like, that's fantastic. Put at three weeks and then add a note in there and add them to your as soon as possible list so that you have a group of people who are like, ⁓ great, because Doc wanted to see me sooner than that. Yes, absolutely, let me come in. So I love that you mentioned that. And for your summer slump, like That's beautiful. Your unscheduled list, your broken appointment list, your ASAP list. I love a broken appointment list because they were already committed at some point. And so they're usually a little bit easier to slide into those last minute ⁓ slots in the schedule. So there's a million things that we could go on with that. But with that said, building those opportunities is huge. And we're in the summer now. And so maybe right now you might be realizing. that you don't have those opportunities built and you're like, gosh, okay, cool. Sounds great, ladies, but I don't have an ASAP list. Or I don't we, you know, we were so full in the spring, we didn't we weren't able to make recare calls. I hear that one all the time. Well we're too full. So if we make recare calls now, we have nowhere to put them. Like, well, I know. I hate that I hate that statement. And I get it. I've lived it, right? We've all been in office and we've lived that and DAT- Kristy (14:29) Mm-hmm. Tiffanie (14:33) I hated making calls, so I would use every excuse in the book that I could to get away from them. ⁓ but then we would come to a summer slump or a September and Doc's like, okay, well, where are all the patients? We've got 3,000 patients. Why aren't they here? Well, they haven't been contacted in six, eight months because we were full. So now you're gonna start to see as well some of those. protocols that you have in place, those systems that maybe aren't working quite right, or we just let them slide away. So now might be the time to like re engage that and get those calls going again to try to fill the schedule, but at least get them going and get the systems and protocols in place while you have the time. ⁓ one system, yeah. DAT- Kristy (15:19) Yeah. Tip you, I was gonna say you you mentioned something earlier about, you know, our handoffs and creating that sense of urgency to come back. One of the things that I love to do is in your morning huddle, doctor, kind of look ahead, see how far out you are booking. And when you're asking patients to reappoint in two weeks or three weeks, it's more realistic. You know when your next available is. And here's the thing, you know, Tiff, I'm a huge fan of verbiage, but if you know you're booking two weeks out, give your give your admin team a little bit of grace, like help them with that sense of urgency and, you know, sometimes just saying, Hey, I would love to see Tiffanie back in two weeks. Will you please get her scheduled as quickly as her, you know, schedule and mine can align around that two week timeframe. Then if it's two and a half weeks, patients not like, doctor said two weeks and we have to say, no, we don't have two weeks, you know. Tiffanie (16:07) Yeah. Yeah, mm-hmm, DAT- Kristy (16:18) So Tiffanie (16:18) yeah. DAT- Kristy (16:18) look look out and see how far you are booking and help give your admin team a little bit of realistic time framing there. Tiffanie (16:26) I agree. I think every doctor should know their schedule. They should be looking at their schedule as well as the team. I have a lot of teams that will come in in the morning and look at their schedule and I'm like, gosh, I've done that. I've done that with the schedule that we run where I've got calls all day and I'll come in in the morning and I'm like, ⁓ golly, because I didn't look at it before and I learned real fast to start prepping my day. And so making sure that we're all looking ahead in the schedule is huge. I love that, Kristy. DAT- Kristy (16:28) Yeah. Yeah. The other thing I was gonna say to that Tiff too is ⁓ I I like that you and I know recare is another subject that we can do a whole podcast on, but it truly is a proactive and a reactive model. And so many practices don't work recare until the schedule falls apart. And I I'm just not I'm a fan of always working it every day, both frontward and backward. And you guys don't be apologetic if you're booking out. Tiffanie (16:58) True. DAT- Kristy (17:18) You can use that to create that sense of urgency. And that's another way to get patients to stick to your schedule. Because if I if I say, my gosh, Tiff, we haven't seen you since December of last year. And ⁓ by the way, our hygiene is in high demand. We're actually booking into the fall. You're gonna jump on that a lot faster than, you know, if if I say, Well, we have a hole in the schedule today and I thought of you, you know. Tiffanie (17:25) Mm. I absolutely agree. And I think like psychologically what that does as well. If you if you did call or you're calling in to schedule and you're like, gosh, you're it's six weeks before you can see me and they're like, Yeah, we you know, it fills up real fast. What I'll do is I'll call you, you know, as soon as we have an available open if it does. But then when that patient does come in for the recare appointment and their hygienist is like, Hey, let's get you scheduled, they're like, Yes, because I it was really hard to get in this time. DAT- Kristy (18:10) Exactly. Yeah. Tiffanie (18:14) So I want to make sure I'm on the books. And so it re-solidifies the urgency as well in scheduling while they're in office. So I think that it helps no matter what to keep that schedule full and it reduces to your point the cancellations last minute because they do know how difficult it is to get in the schedule. I completely agree. I think also making sure that we're ⁓ we've got some sort of proactive measurement around pre-collecting. DAT- Kristy (18:28) Yeah. Tiffanie (18:41) is huge and I know there's a lot of pushback on that one as well. But there's so many there there are so many things that you have to pay for first. Like you guys ordering online, everybody orders online and you pay for it well before you get it. There have been so many times my Amazon orders have had to be like completely canceled because it just never showed up, right? It's like being delivered, being delivered for days, for weeks, and then it just never shows up. Brody's got a part for his car he's been waiting on for over a month that's just never shown up that he's paid for. DAT- Kristy (19:01) Yeah. Tiffanie (19:10) So I think the idea of collecting for the treatment before it's done can go to the wayside. Like everybody's everybody's doing it in some fashion. And to me, what it does, well, for me personally, what it does is I've already spent the money. Right. And I know that there's like all these like girl math things all over the, you know, Instagram and the social media platforms or whatever. But it truly is once you've spent that money, you've accounted for it being gone. Now thinking about having to spend money. DAT- Kristy (19:36) Mm-hmm. Tiffanie (19:40) stresses me out. And so thinking about spending the money on something I'm not really excited to spend it on, and then something else enters my life. The the bag or a vacation or anything under the sun, something I wanted for the house, or I decided to have a barbecue and invited my whole neighborhood and I spent all the money that I anticipated spending on the crown, well guess what's going to be canceled? But if I've already spent even a portion of that money, so it's reducing the amount that I'm spending in the future. The psychological aspects of it, you we could do a whole podcast on that, but it seriously changes the game because you've already spent the money. Your bank account has accounted for it being gone. And so you you don't you're less likely to cancel. And so Kristy, I think we both work really hard with our practices to proactively collect something. ⁓ how have you seen DAT- Kristy (20:34) Yeah. Tiffanie (20:35) in your dental history, how have you seen that change the game as far as keeping a schedule full and especially maybe during the summer? DAT- Kristy (20:43) Absolutely. Tiff, I'm I again am a huge proponent of managing things on the front end. I I almost can debunked all of our problems because we have probably caused them either in our verbiage or actions that we do. Inadvertently, of course. We didn't we never meant for it to happen, but it goes back to ⁓ just using verbiage like the reservation fee versus cancellation fee, you know? Tiffanie (21:10) Yeah. Yes. DAT- Kristy (21:13) I I would much rather have a reservation fee than a cancellation fee. And again, if we're saying we don't want cancels, you can't focus on the opposite. So why are we why are we saying patients cancel all the time? You're sending the message. It's okay to cancel just by saying that. So here's the other thing. ⁓ I would much rather if a patient isn't solidified on the treatment and they're unwilling to put money down for that reservation. Tiffanie (21:22) Mm. DAT- Kristy (21:41) I would much rather know now today than day of because now I have to struggle to fill that spot. And again, it doesn't mean that I'm writing them off if they can't pay for it today or put the reservation down, but it just gives us the opportunity to create more value for that treatment and re enroll them in the process. But to your point, yeah, I'm a huge fan. And you know, look at it from a perspective that you're trying to help your patients, much like you said, Tiff. Tiffanie (22:09) Mm-hmm. DAT- Kristy (22:11) Even if I had four hundred dollars in savings, I may appreciate splitting two hundred now and two hundred later so it wasn't wiping out that four hundred dollars all at once. So yeah. Tiffanie (22:21) Yeah. Yeah. And not two hundred day of service, two hundred later. It's two hundred before service, two hundred at service. DAT- Kristy (22:27) Yes. Yes, one hundred percent. It just makes it more manageable and and psychologically, like you said, it's not all coming out at one time. So and there may be patients that are like, no, I'd rather pay the whole thing at now, you know, at one time. Great, let's go ahead and collect that now and you won't even have to stop on your way out, you know, unless something changed, obviously. But you you get where we can we can influence that behavior. Tiffanie (22:44) Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Yeah, completely agree. ⁓ so we've got block scheduling. And I and I as you were speaking, I was thinking too, during the summer summer slowdown, if you have a summer slowdown and you're not doing block scheduling yet, it's actually a really great time to start implementing it because your schedule is light, because you can you can put it in and you can start changing and working around it. We have so many even startup practices that come to us and they're like, Well, I don't have enough patience yet. I'm not busy enough yet. I just need everyone. And I'm like, no, this is the perfect time because you have a blank slate to play with. So let's create it and fill it in again with those 48 hour rules. So I think block scheduling, Kristy, we talked a ton about that, productive scheduling, that's gonna be massive. pre-collecting, making sure we're utilizing our call lists and making sure that all of those systems are in place. This is a really good time to make sure that you have those systems, that they're there and that we start using them. And then quickly a couple of ideas we chatted ⁓ DAT- Kristy (23:45) Mm-hmm. Tiffanie (23:57) prior to hopping on here was one was making sure that our confirmations are far enough in advance that we're getting them con confirmed, but also that we're doing it far enough in advance at least two days. I like a week and then three days and then two days, but I want at least two days, if not three or four, to refill a schedule. So when you're thinking about confirmations, think less about how annoying you think you are and think more about what you need in order to build a solid schedule. and make sure that you guys have what you need in your practice. So I think confirmations are huge. And then Kristy, you mentioned promotions as well, like summer promos. And what have you seen, what have you done and worked with practices on when it comes to summer promotions? DAT- Kristy (24:41) Yeah, absolutely. Tiff, I think if there's services like especially bigger services, because we know maybe we have a week off this month, maybe you do your Invisalign special. That's a great time to run, or any any promotional items that way. But also you could even have some fun things like, we're doing a Blackstone Grill giveaway scheduled during this this month and get your name in the drawing. Or you know what I mean, get creative and have fun. Tiffanie (24:47) Mm-hmm. I love that. DAT- Kristy (25:11) And use it for a win win. We're getting our patients healthy because we're getting them scheduled, but we're also filling our schedule to meet the practice needs. Tiffanie (25:20) Yeah. I actually really love that, Kristy, because normally the promotions I love the I love all of it, but your blackstone, the way that you said that, because normally those promotions are for ⁓ reviews or for referrals, right? So refer a friend and get entered to win. But I loved what you said there when you said schedule this month and be entered to win. So that promotes the scheduling because honestly, I'm the type of person that I'm like, well, I'm gonna spend the money anyways, so I might as well spend it now and potentially girl math, get this free. So then like my money, but if I me being me, I would split it then I'm like, well, my appointment plus the blackstone, right? Then I only paid $300 for this. Like that is brilliant. As psychologically dental, there's so much that goes into dentistry that is psychology. And it's not to trick people, it's to make it easier And to make it more fun and engaging for them to say yes to their health. And Kristy, you nailed it with that. I love that. Thank you. Yeah. DAT- Kristy (26:24) Awesome. Thank you. Yeah, it's so funny because literally last week I was talking with clients and I'm like, what's the first thing you always usually hear from patients when they come in? Even like if we ask, how was your day day today? It's like, great, till I got here. And I always say, Well, it's funny because nobody's standing outside the office, like holding a gun to their head saying, You have to go to the dentist, right? But yet they walk in our doors. Tiffanie (26:36) Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. DAT- Kristy (26:51) So they're coming for something. Let's just use it as a positive win to get them healthy and meet our needs. Yeah. Yeah. Tiffanie (26:57) I love it. Thank you. Thank you, Kristy. And with that, listeners, I encourage you to re-listen to this as many times as you need to, especially if you are driving right now. ⁓ pull off to the side of the road, take notes, get to the office, take notes, but re-listen to this and then pick two. We gave you a slew of things that you can work on. Pick two that you're gonna work on right now. Save the rest maybe for August, ⁓ September, kind of proactively. measure these out. Kristy, thank you so much for all of your tips today. I truly do love our time together and I love picking your brain. If you're not doing a promotion, I you just I love that. I'm excited for that. So if you're not doing a promotion like that and you have the space within your budget, go do it. But pick two of these things that we talked about today. And as always, we are here to serve you guys in the best ways that we know how to. We have all of these tips, but we also work on implementing these things with our practices. So while you might hear it here on the podcast, working one-on-one with someone to help implement them can be a real big game changer. So reach out to Hello@TheDentalATeam.com for more tips, tricks, and to talk to us about how to implement these processes. Kristy, thank you so much. ⁓ and we'll catch you next time.

Send us Fan MailMost landlords think about taxes in February. By then, the year is already over — and so are most of the opportunities to do anything about it.In this Shorty episode, we break down why summer is actually the smartest time to get your rental finances in order. You still have months left in the tax year, which means if you find a problem now, you still have time to fix it.We cover three things every self-managing landlord should be doing right now: getting your expense tracking current, understanding where you actually stand financially at the midpoint of the year, and building clean records before your end-of-year CPA conversation. We also share a personal story about missing a significant deduction — and why that mistake was too costly to fix after the fact.Plus, a quick look at how the right accounting system (QuickBooks, or a property management platform with built-in accounting) can make all of this happen in the background automatically — and why your choice of tool matters more than most landlords realize.Episodes & Resources MentionedEpisode 12: Our Experience With a 1031 Exchange, Would We Do It Again?Episode 18: 7 Ways to Increase Profit for Your Rental Property Episode 28: The Cash Reserves Blueprint: Protecting & Expanding Your PortfolioEpisode 45: Basic Tax Strategies For Real Estate InvestorsEpisode 46: Advanced Tax Strategies for Your Real Estate PortfolioEpisode 55: Preventative Maintenance That Brings Peace of MindEpisode 79: Accounting Software Options for Real Estate InvestorsEpisode 99: 5 Oversights That Drain Your IncomeEpisode 111: Stop Guessing, Start BudgetingGood Read: Basic Tax Strategies Good Read: Advanced Tax Strategies Book QuickBooks (30% off first 6 months): TurboTenant Create a FREE account today!DoorLoop: Syncs Directly to QuickBooksRentRedi: Syncs Directly to QuickBooksInnago: Create a FREE account today!Connect with Us:

As horses age, their health care needs and associated costs often increase, making proactive management especially important. Having your veterinarian perform regular examinations, dental evaluations, and monitoring for common senior conditions can help you catch problems early and potentially reduce long-term expenses. Senior horses might also require specialized feeds, medications, or additional supportive care, which can increase monthly costs. Developing a preventive care plan and budgeting for age-related health needs can help owners support their horses' comfort and longevity. This episode is brought to you by CareCredit. Meet the Experts: Alex Bianco, DVM, Dipl. ACVIM, is a Minneapolis native and graduate of the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine, in St. Paul. After completing a rotating equine internship at Kansas State University, in Manhattan, she completed a large animal internal medicine residency at Purdue University, in Lafayette, Indiana. Following her residency, Bianco remained at Purdue for an additional year working as an equine ambulatory veterinarian, before returning to the University of Minnesota as clinical faculty in 2016.Jonathan Yardley, DVM, is a graduate of Tufts School of Veterinary Medicine, in North Grafton, Massachusetts. He began his career with a private practice internship before joining a prominent racetrack practice, Teigland, Franklin, and Brokken, where he specialized in caring for an elite clientele of Thoroughbred racehorses. In 2014 Yardley shifted from private practice to academia as an ambulatory, clinical-track veterinarian in the Equine Field Service department at The Ohio State University's College of Veterinary Medicine, in Columbus, where he currently serves as an associate professor. As the equine rotating internship director, Yardley is committed to fostering an enriching learning environment that empowers interns to develop their clinical and critical thinking skills throughout their yearlong internships. Dedicated to veterinary wellness, Yardley serves as co-chair of the College of Veterinary Medicine Health & Wellbeing Committee, championing evidence-based strategies for healthcare improvement.

Stranded in the Nicaraguan jungle beside an ancient temple, three adventurers and their companions discover its priests serve a horror that's all too real — man-sized vampire bats with an appetite for human blood."Temple of Vampires," an installment of Carlton E. Morse's I Love a Mystery (originally aired January 02-27, 1950), follows adventurers Jack, Doc, and Reggie as they fly toward Central America with heiress Sonny Richards and a mysterious stowaway boy named Hermie. Water-tainted gasoline forces their plane down on the shore of Lake Nicaragua, near an ancient jungle temple. Exploring it, they find a blood-drained Indian corpse and a pit of human bones, then encounter the temple's inhabitants — a beautiful priestess named Angelina and a priest named Manuel — who claim to be servants of "sacred vampires," giant man-sized bats bred over generations for human sacrifice. Angelina fixates on carrying off Hermie for his pale skin, while Manuel abducts Sonny with designs of his own. Trapped by nightfall and a tropical storm, the comrades face a harrowing ordeal of rope-swings between dizzying high ledges, captures, and near-sacrifices as they fight to get everyone out of the temple alive.Look for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.
