As Jerry took off earlier this season to do some tree planting, he returned a couple weeks ago with his buddy Evan. - Somehow we got back on the topic of breast milk again. - They tell me an interesting story about their day off. - We talk about hauling firewood in the Yukon. - They tell me all about the bar in the Yukon that has the "toe shots". - And we may have talked about hypnotism for a little too long.

Today, host Rob West points out that while the spiritual implications are enormous, politics and yes, even money, played a role as well. Looking at the economics of the crucifixion in no way diminishes its spiritual importance. But as Jerry Bowyer points out in his book,The Maker vs. The Takers, understanding theeconomicfactors behind Jesus’ execution is valuable as it heightens our understanding of sin and forgiveness. God’s purpose for the crucifixion was to save mankind from sin. However, there were many other actors in this drama: the priests, the Herodians, and the occupying Romans. For them, politics and money played a major role in the decision to murder Jesus because He threatened their monetary interests. Scripture implies that privately,the Pharisees and the Sadduceesdid have financial concerns. As Jerry often points out, the ruling class in Jerusalem was based on a corrupt system of extracting money from the lower classes for temple sacrifices. After Jesus drove the money changers from the temple in Mark 11, we read, And as he taught them, he said, Is it not written:My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations? But you have made it a den of robbers.’ The chief priests and the teachers of the law heard this and began looking for a way to kill him, for they feared him, because the whole crowd was amazed at his teaching.Jesus was exposing their corrupt system and they feared He would put an end to their affluent lifestyle. But politics played a role as well. What about Pilate? He was in a precarious situation. He was under suspicion in Rome for possibly being part of an attempted coup against the Emperor Tiberius that had recently been put down. The emperor had crushed his political enemies in Rome, many of whom were part of Rome’s financial class and who also held vast real estate holdings. The result was an economic collapse similar to what we saw in 2008. Many of those wealthy Romans became paupers overnight and feared for their lives. It was from among that financial class that the Roman governor Pilate had his main support. So, he was already on thin ice when the Jerusalem elite came to him demanding that Jesus be executed. While Jesus’ death is heartbreaking, on Sunday we’ll celebrate His glorious resurrection and the unspeakable gift of His grace that opened the gates of Heaven to believers. On today’s program we also answer your questions: I just sold some stocks that made me over a million dollars. I’m going to owe a lot of taxes on this! Do I pay the IRS up front? Regarding qualified charitable distributions, I have anRMD for about $1,600. Can I divide this up and give, say, $500 to three different places or do I have to give it all to just one place? I have about $1 million in life insurance. If I die, my wife gets this. When we both die, our oldest daughter becomes the beneficiary. Is there any way to direct what happens to that pay-out?

content: Feb 22, 2018 · podcast: Mar 26, 2021 Audio (MP3): 20180222 - Alarm clock crazy, no thanks Denny's circa Dec 22, 2017 Came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.— Step 2 of Alcoholics Anonymous The drug and alcohol treatment center I went to in the early 90s was 12-step based. Their treatment plan was to have patients complete the first five steps in order to graduate. When working Step Two, we spent a good chunk of time making lists of how and why we were insane. Those lists were easy to make but in the here-and-now I kinda think they missed the point. The point of this step isn’t to review what we’ve done in order to convince ourselves that we have a drug or alcohol problem, that in fact we were insane. Insanity is fairly obvious when you’re ready to stop. I’ve felt insane in my fingertips. The Second Step is about finding something bigger that we can believe in to “restore us to sanity” with “restore” being the keyword in the latter half of the step. I’m not here to define insanity. That’s looking at the problem and keeps me stuck. I have plenty of them “and then one time” stories along the lines of… on Christmas Eve when the family and I were all decorating the tree, I would sneak down to the basement every so often and take a big pull off my whiskey bottle. And then before the night was over my ex-wife was saying to me teary-eyed, “are you drunk?” Crazy, I know it all too well. I’m much more interested in looking for hope now, in reinstalling some sanity now that my jugs are plugged. And pay attention to this: it’s not “will restore” but “could restore.” We have to let that power in. The good news is that I was sane when I was a little kid. Children are pure, they’re untainted. They aren’t born with judgement or resentment or anxiety. Through a higher power’s help I was able to find my way back to a sound mind, a stable way of living as a grownup. Anxiety free more often than not. … And then there was that one time not long ago when I was having dinner by myself at Denny’s. Looking around the restaurant, there I was the only person flying solo. Eating alone isn’t my favorite thing to do but whatever. I mostly have self-assurance. I generally have peace. I can be by myself in public. I have my phone. I have the whole Internet. On one of the social medias I saw a picture of my ex-wife. With her boyfriend. And they were smiling at each other. And there I was sitting by myself. At one point in my career that was a recipe for emotional overload. But get this: by no choice of my own, I was honestly happy for them. Because I could see they had something going on between them that she and I hadn’t had for a long time. Happy because I always wanted the very best for her and looking at that picture I knew the “very best” wasn’t me. She had found it with someone else. Because I had closure, because I had walked through that breakup’s phenomenal pain, I could be sincerely happy for them in the here and now. Even though I was alone with my fork and knife, a power greater than me had served me up some sanity. One time several years ago I woke her up at 6:00 in the morning because I had lost my mind and I needed to tell her that she had played a part in all of that. This alcoholic had gone crazy when he first sobered up. Life was staring me straight in the face like a loaded gun. Waking her up before the sun was even shining was me embracing and exercising insanity in my daily life. Spilling it onto her life. Moving from that kind of early morning, alarm clock crazy to being truly happy for her at Denny’s, that’s being restored to sanity. And not by my own doing. How and when does that restoration happen? How does one move from alarm clock crazy to genuine happiness for another? With failed marriages and sour breakups time is always key factor. I needed some distance, needed some room for my mind to breathe, to detach from the things that were making me crazy. It was hard not to see only darkness when I was living in darkness. Before I could detach and let go, though, I needed to feel all those feelings. Those scary ones I’d kept locked up in me, down in the basement. I can’t move on from something if I’ve never dealt with it, never processed the madness. Hence moral inventory and amendments. So the simple and yet hard answer is that we’re restored to sanity by working the steps. It’s really that simple. And go to meetings. And talk with our sponsor, too. As Jerry said not long ago, “and then the pay off is peace.” I had peace that night at Denny’s. Peace for me and peace with her. After I let go, after I came to believe, I found out that that peace was what I had always wanted. #lettherebehope #relationships #twelvesteps #diariespodcast keamoose · Feb 22, 2018 at 11:09 am Have you heard this one? I don’t know if you like Johnny Cash, but I think the lyrics will mean something to you. https://youtu.be/Cb2uhocXl2A $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 22, 2018 at 1:42 pm I’m about 50/50 with my Cash likings but that one was pretty good. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; keamoose · Feb 22, 2018 at 11:04 pm I just looked up the origin of the song, and apparently he wrote it in rehab, so I guess that explains why the wording is so similar to step 2. 🤔 $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 23, 2018 at 7:17 am Yep, I got that feeling. Nothing wrong with being heavily inspired though… 😊 $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; keamoose · Feb 23, 2018 at 8:08 am Oh, I didn’t mean to imply there was anything wrong with that. I just never realized what the song was about until yesterday. 😊 $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 23, 2018 at 8:47 am Ah gotcha… I think the “🤔” threw me off. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; keamoose · Feb 23, 2018 at 9:02 am Ah, my bad. I meant it like “I am thinking about this new information”. 🙂 $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 23, 2018 at 11:40 am All good! The steps have been engrained in me since maybe 1982 so whenever I see the phrase “came to believe” that’s where my mind automatically goes. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; keamoose · Feb 23, 2018 at 11:49 am Ah, see for me it’s all new, so your posts are creating all sorts of new mental connections between existing information and artworks I previously didn’t realize were related. I mean, much like learning anything else new, it gets all connected up with the old stuff and changes how you see it. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tism · Feb 22, 2018 at 11:13 am Thanks for sharing t. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 22, 2018 at 11:50 am Thanks for reading 😊 $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; Monohon · Feb 22, 2018 at 11:32 am I know you probably hate hearing this but Though I didn’t know you that long you always seemed to be a little brother to me and I’m so glad you are doing so well! $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 22, 2018 at 11:51 am Yep, you always were a good older brother! $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; ubelievewhat · Feb 22, 2018 at 12:03 pm Thanks for the words. Man, I feel like I needed to hear this. Really powerful. As someone who struggles with life, and working my fourth now. I think I’m starting to get it, or “peak behind the curtain” so to speak. To me it wasn’t the booze or the substance, it was within me all along. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 22, 2018 at 2:15 pm Yep, totally me that was causing my own suffering. :) $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; ubelievewhat · Feb 23, 2018 at 6:42 am Well, i mean i dont know the context of your situation or you. But I just know how it all relates back to me. I tried to live without a program-AA or otherwise. It didnt do me any favors. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 23, 2018 at 8:23 am Yep, I totally get what you’re saying. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; Kelly K · Feb 22, 2018 at 1:28 pm Fantastic! $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 22, 2018 at 1:36 pm Thank you! $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; eamor · Feb 22, 2018 at 3:51 pm Oh man this is beautiful written. It oozes serenity and peace. I can literally feel that moment. Thanks for sharing. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 22, 2018 at 8:24 am Thank you! $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; AHeien82 · Feb 22, 2018 at 4:19 pm Thank you for sharing that, it sounds like you have kept your sobriety strong in the face of adversity! I’ve always taken point with the word insanity in recovery, because I think that it has a connotation of mental disease. I know my actions while drinking could have been considered insane by the standard “Doing the same thing, expecting different results” but when I got to the second step like yourself, I was looking more for inspiration in moving towards a higher power instead of dredging up my insane actions and using them to look outside myself. Maybe that’s just my ego, wanting to avoid looking at my character defects, but I think that is pretty well covered in the fourth step, haha. Thanks again! $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 23, 2018 at 8:29 am Yep, I think we’re trained to look for the negative. It’s familiar and comfortable. My sponsor used to remind me of the quote that’s along the lines of, “we won’t find the light by endlessly researching the dark.” $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; Myexisacheatingwhore · Feb 22, 2018 at 4:41 pm Damn. I really really really needed this. Damn. Thank you. As someone just coming out of that dark forest of ruined past relationships, trekking through it and feeling every painful second was worth it. The personal growth I have gained, the insight, was worth it. It wasn’t fun though, and at certain points I thought I was permanently broken and fucked. I was emotionally insane and obsessive. Living in the past and concocting grandiose plans for the future. It’s still hard sometimes, but giving it all over to my higher power, whatever that may be, has very likely saved my life. My life is not what I ever thought it would be, and not even want I want it to be, but damn I’m grateful I made out of that forest. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 23, 2018 at 8:24 am > but damn I’m grateful I made out of that forest For sure. My recovery isn’t so much all the wonderful things I have now. It’s more about all the horrible things I don’t. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; Mona · Feb 22, 2018 at 6:52 pm Great explanation of how it works. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 22, 2018 at 11:15 pm Thanks!! $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; sunshinefiend · Feb 23, 2018 at 12:17 am Thank so much for that. I recently relapsed after some length of recovery & I am just baffled at how much I bypassed in my foundation steps. I was so desperate and broken when I came in, I was convinced that my horror stories are what made me need this program. With very fresh eyes I can see your point here and I really needed to hear it tonight. Thanks $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 23, 2018 at 8:28 am You are most welcome! Also, I was sober for a couple of years before I found out the hard way I didn’t have a real belief in a higher power. The good news is that after abandoning myself to God and working the steps I’ve been healed and made whole. $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; marney0160 · Feb 23, 2018 at 9:54 pm I love the stuff you write!! 💗 $m.wand.ajax_click=true;$m.wand.lightswitch=true; tcr! · Feb 23, 2018 at 11:02 pm Thanks!

Jerry Vazquez was in the cleaning business now, and his clients liked him. They’d leave him notes, some with smiley faces drawn in. But, he says, he was barely getting by on the rates negotiated by Jan-Pro. He started feeling like had little control over a business that he owned. As Jerry would soon find out, some of Jan-Pro’s other franchisees felt similarly — they were stuck. So Jerry decided it was time to fight back.

In this episode, Seth gets into with one of America's favorite actor's & personalities, Jerry O'Connell. As Jerry posts up on the streets of LA, they talk about Trump's potential pardons, being dads to twin girls, being stutterers, and Jerry talks about his experience doing a film with friend Justin Long, and little dust up. Justin is watching, and when Jerry signs off, Justin signs on, and tells his side of the story. Then Jerry comes back on the show and has a final rebuttal. It's a wild ride and a lot of fun.
This time of reflections and fresh starts can be a springboard to new habits. As Jerry puts it I am coming out of a fitness relapse or slump. Although we spend a lot of time talking about food and fitness the same can be said for alcohol. Whether it is Dry January or wanting to run further a certain amount of objective self inventory needs to be taken and course corrections made. We can get where we want if we are honest and look for the why. Thanks for listening.

In the second episode of 'Uninvited', Jerry comes face-to-face with karma resulting from his first episode hi-jinx (:06) and he's just a little bitter about it (1:27). Somehow, he transitions to his six-word haiku (2:35), which leads to a rather ridiculous but kinda relatable rant about why Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen are better than Ryan Seacrest ; the Impeachment Trial and the need for Kansas City to change the name of their football team (5:25). As Jerry is prone to do, he makes a reference to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as a way to explain our current socio-political climate (8:34) with a rousing, inspirational call to action* (12:09). As if he is on the Disney+ payroll (he's not), he jumps into 'Hamilton' (14:47) which somehow lands with him discussing Mt. Rushmore and the president's problematic visit there (18:49). (Jerry spends a bulk of the time here and is worth listening to this segment). The rest: pure ranting about masks, respect, work/teaching balance and embracing the pendulum of quarantine emotions (somewhere into the 31st minute mark).

Dustin Plantholt’s “Life’s Tough—You Can Be Tougher” podcast this week is sponsored by Mint Home Loans and features Jerry Springer, renowned American television host, politician, news presenter, actor, producer, musician, and former lawyer. Springer revolutionized daytime TV with his ultra-popular show, The Jerry Springer Show, a daytime talk show featuring controversial topics and outrageous guest behavior. Springer currently hosts a courtroom show called Judge Jerry where he presides over actual legal disputes. Gerald Norman “Jerry” Springer was born on February 13, 1944 in London, England to Jewish refugees—Margot Kallmann, a bank clerk and Richard Springer, owner of a shoe shop—who escaped Nazi Germany to avoid persecution. Other family members, including his paternal grandmother, were not as fortunate as they perished in concentration camps during the holocaust. In January 1949, Jerry’s family immigrated to the United States, settling in Kew Gardens, Queens, New York. He attended Forest Hills High School and later earned a B.A. degree from Tulane University in 1965, majoring in political science; and subsequently earned a law degree from Northwestern University School of Law in Chicago in 1968. One of his earliest memories about current and political events was when he was 12 and watching the 1956 Democratic National Convention on television where he saw and was impressed by John F. Kennedy. That interest in politics led him to work on the presidential campaign of Robert F. Kennedy, after graduating law school. After Kennedy’s assassination, he joined the Cincinnati law firm of Frost & Jacobs (now Frost Brown Todd) and then became a partner in the law firm of Grinker, Sudman & Springer (from 1973 to 1985). In the early 1970s Jerry embarked on his own political career in Ohio, serving on Cincinnati’s city council. Not without some career lows, he was forced to resign from the council over a controversial issue, although he regained his seat at the next election. Despite being a liberal in relatively conservative Cincinnati, he was elected mayor of the city in 1977 (served 1977–78). After a failed bid in the early 1980’s for the Democratic nomination for governor of Ohio he decided to pursue television journalism and began work as a reporter at a local television station. He later became anchor and was the recipient of seven Emmy Awards for commentaries during his tenure. In 1991 he branched out into talk shows with the debut of The Jerry Springer Show. Initially centered on political issues—guests included Oliver North and Jesse Jackson, and topics included homelessness and gun politics—the program struggled in its first few seasons. In early 1994, the show underwent a complete overhaul as Springer and his new producer, Richard Dominick, revamped the show’s format to garner higher ratings. Guests were everyday people confronted on a television stage by controversial situations that often promoted shouting or violence on stage. Although criticized by some as being staged and condemned by many political and community leaders as “trash TV,” it proved immensely popular with television viewers and received substantial ratings and much attention. By 1998, it was beating The Oprah Winfrey Show in many cities, and was reaching more than 6.7 million viewers. The show even inspired an opera—debuting in London in 2003—which won a Laurence Olivier Award for best new musical; and was subsequently staged in various U.S. cities. Other career highlights include being named “One of the 10 Most Fascinating People” in 1998; an appearance on the popular show Dancing With the Stars in 2006; Winner, 2008 Fox Reality Channel Really Award for “Favorite Host” for America’s Got Talent; playing Billy Flynn in the Broadway theatrical production of “Chicago;” host of the 2008 Miss Universe Pageant. In 1998 Jerry starred in the movie Ringmaster, which was based on a Springer-esque television show. His other film credits include Citizen Verdict (2003) and The Defender (2004), in which he played the president of the United States. He has also made several TV appearances as himself and has acted in several television sitcoms. His autobiography, Ringmaster! (written with Laura Morton), was published in 1998. And as a self-described “country singer-songwriter,” Jerry has opened for Billy Ray Cyrus and has performed at actor Johnny Depp’s notorious club, the Viper Room. Springer is married and is a lifelong New York Yankees fan. Join Dustin and Jerry for a candid talk on his successful and sometimes controversial career and how he maintains clarity and peace amongst criticism and judgement. As Jerry says, “I think technology has changed the way we see things. Human behavior has not changed in the last 3,000 years. There is nothing that has ever been on our show that isn’t in the Bible, that isn’t in literature, that isn’t in Shakespeare.”
One of the greatest missteps a leader can take is to live an unexamined life. When our subroutines run unchecked beneath the surface, our work, our organizations and our relationships are unwittingly hijacked by the traits we consign to the shadows. As leaders, the greatest gift we can give to ourselves and others is to choose to make the unconscious conscious. In this episode, Jerry is joined by Daniel Feltsman, Founder of Lina, an online platform for helping parents share wisdom and life experiences with their children. Feeling “in the middle of a tornado,” Danny reached out to the Reboot Podcast looking for guidance through a particularly challenging time. What unfolds is a forthright conversation about the experiences of our youth and ways in which the conditions of our formative years are often unknowingly etched upon our lives. As Jerry tenderly acknowledges, the conditions we survive as children often become the conditions necessary for our thriving as adults. Through the process of inquiry and with Jerry’s support, Danny begins the first step in making the unconscious conscious by asking, “What subroutines am I running?” Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

In this special episode of Acquisition Talk, we listen in on a conversation about the effects of COVID-19 on government contracting, including (1) the Defense Production Act, (2) emergency relief stimulus, (3) government contract data in response to coronavirus and business opportunities, and (4) guidance from government on navigating the crisis. It was recorded for George Mason University's new series, the Mason Executive Podcast. The episode features Dr. Jerry McGinn, executive director at the Center for Government Contracting, Dr. Bret Josephson, podcast host and Professor of Marketing, and myself. We discuss a recent report we released at the Center. It describes how more than $200 million has been obligated to contracts specifically for COVID-19 as of March 24. This includes $153 million for research and development, $34 million for medical equipment and services, $13 million to ventilators, $3.5 million for tests/panels, $2.5 million for personal protective equipment. Jerry is an expert on the Defense Production Act (DPA), having overseen the program during his time in the Pentagon as Principal Deputy Director of the Office of Manufacturing and Industrial Base Policy. resident Trump delegated DPA authorities to Health and Human Services. As Jerry explained, "it gives HHS the authority to change the rating of company contracts and put the government order at the top of the line." While the program usually has about $100 million in the fund, the new $2 trillion stimulus package that just passed the Senate includes $3 billion for the DPA.

Turn off Settings > Site > Auto-Optimize Network. Turn off Settings > Wireless Networks > SSID > Advanced Options > High Performance Devices. Modify the DTIM Period? -Wi-Fi channel management and manual vs automatic is something Sam & Jerry differ on -DHCP vs static vs DHCP reservations. What do you do? -Joe has a new business idea for an auto power cycling router -The gang jokes about photos clients take and send to help diagnose issues -Sam discovers that you can set up a single UniFi access point without the use of a controller and simply use the app -UniFi “rolling upgrades” via the controller can be confusing, as noted by Joe when doing it recently. It's mostly been successful, because the Start Rolling Upgrade button is only available when viewing the "Wireless" tab, which only lists the APs – and yet, it includes the switch update as part of it -Jerry has a client that requires manual firmware of their 16 Ubiquiti UniFi devices using SSH -Zendesk has a great API to use with mail clients so you can quickly change the status of tickets, assign to agents, etc. Sam discovers this late in the Zendesk game but it has already made him much more efficient dealing with tickets: https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/203691006-Using-the-Mail-API-to-update-ticket-properties-from-your-inbox -Another PSA from Joe, Apple has begun recycling serial numbers for Mac computers so companies like Watchman Monitoring need a new method of determining the estimated age of a machine. https://beetstech.com/blog/decode-meaning-behind-apple-serial-number https://www.macrumors.com/2020/01/06/apple-randomized-serial-numbers-late-2020/ -Sam has an odd end result when dealing with an old issue of Spotlight being unable to search Outlook emails -The “Focused” email in Outlook can be too easy to click on and confuse the user. Jerry has seen this all too often. Joe wants to rename it “randomly hide some of my stuff”. -As the spotlight conversation goes on, Joe mentions a script he created in Addigy to destroy and rebuild the spotlight database: https://prod.addigy.com/#/macmanage/community/scripts/5dddb3325ff0a156d595558d
Topics: -Joe cracks one open to start the show -Jerry & Joe discuss business at the start of the new year -As a follow up to Joe’s recent client security issues, they talk about various pieces of advice that clients may or may not follow -As things change, it does create work for our consultancies -With Catalina, Migration Assistant has proven challenging as it can misreport successful migrations -As Joe goes deeper into some Catalina war stories, Mail data loss becomes a bit of a nightmare -The battle rages on over upgrading early and challenges persist -Joe & Jerry take a stroll down memory lane in Mac history -Joe reveals that Tim Nyberg, of The Mac Guys+ & patron of the show sent him a Macintosh SE30 to add to his Mac Museum -Jerry has rave reviews about a product called Turbo Boot Switcher, recommended by Marco Arment.

This has been addressed with the newest generation, which now has a battery backup. https://store.ui.com/products/unifi-cloudkey-gen2-plus -Jerry doesn’t stop there. He has another saga dealing with a Ubiquiti install -A strong case for an off-site controller that Richard Wingfield brought up is updating a singular controller as opposed to each cloud key at client sites -Circling back to value based billing, the crew reflects how they have already been using it in some respects and how to implement it properly in the future. As Jerry said, “We all have value based billing in our soul”. -Sam’s concern with this method is that there is no formula to calculate jobs -Calculating monthly costs for monitoring & managing network devices leads us down the MSP path. How to bill appropriately? Do you require it? What’s not included? Questions that must be addressed when proposing services like this.
Topics: -From the days of the Apple II, Tim Nyberg was known as “The Mac Guy” in his college days because he could confidently fix any Apple computer. Tim kept the name, opened The MacGuys+ in 1991 and today he and his team are still obsessed with Macs and Apple technology. -Tim talks about his history from typing papers for fellow students, to a job at Kinkos, and eventually landing back in Minneapolis to build his current business. -Tim has a brick and mortar location that serves a purpose for walk in traffic and repairs. -Having a location has its challenges but provides opportunity and space to perform some large scale tasks -As Tim’s business has seen changes over the years, Jerry notes that the tools that he uses has allowed him to work more efficiently -Tim starts to see himself being more of the business end of the company and transitioning from the technical end of the company. He is on his way to obtaining his MBA. -There are some clients that have been around for 20 years who want nothing to do with managed services -Value based billing is a concept that Tim has been presenting to his clients. Part of this is setting expectations with the customer and making them realize what the value of the work is. -As Jerry asks for a practical example, Tim talks about value based billing in projects like Synology setups, Wi-Fi roll outs where the value of expertise and padded time for potential pitfalls are covered as a part of the cost. -If projects go more smoothly than expected, it provides opportunity to offer a discount to the customer. -One book that provided good information on this topic was "Value-Based Fees" By Alan Weiss -It is important to express to the customer what your value is. Less important than total hours on an invoice is the details of all the work performed. -Like many of us, Tim leverages the TidBITS Content Network and a variety of social media tools to provide content to his customers.
Topics: -Sam discusses the work/life balance when he’s on the road -Jerry describes being in “BusyCal Hell” with a small medical office. Joe & Sam weigh in with their thoughts -As Jerry describes this situation as a hornet’s nest, it reminds Joe of Apple Knowledge Base Article HT201657 where they describe sync services “as if it were a swarm of bees”. -Jerry reminds us of how BusyCal/BusyMac has changed hands some time ago -The former “IT guy”. Trust is large part of our relationships and Sam spins a yarn about how that trust was completely broken with a new client relationship. -An episode of Command Control Power wouldn’t be complete without a gripe from Joe. Safari suggestions is his latest target. -In some truly amazing sleuthing, Joe shares a client story where he diagnosed an issue with a Mac going dark at seemingly random moments. From afar, he appears to have correctly pointed towards a multitude of magnets that the customer wears. He also recounts a similar story from episodes of the past where he diagnosed an issue with lighting and solar powered keyboards. -Jerry shares a PSA about Startup Security Utility on Mac computers with a T2 chip: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208198 -Joe has real time follow up! While recording the show, he heard back from the magnetized client who confirms that he was right on the money with his diagnosis.
For all leaders, periods of transitional change usher the impetus for self-inquiry. Whether unforeseen or even expected, transitions provide an opportunity to consider where we are now and where we’d like to be in the future. As our center of gravity shifts, we're given space to ponder what's on the horizon, oftentimes considering how we will find our way forward when we’re still so strongly tied to the version of ourselves we left behind. On this episode of the Reboot Podcast, we introduce you to David Ryan, former Managing Director and Co-founder of Corilla, a collaborative content tool for software teams. In this conversation, David reflects on his decision to shut down his organization and the period of transition it has heralded forward. David expresses gratitude for his time as CEO and explores embracing the uncertainty of stepping into the newest stage of his life as an author. As Jerry gently reminds David, life unfolds as a series of entrances and exits; we must all learn to softly close doors on previous chapters of our lives in order to fully open to what’s next. With each transition, we have the beautiful opportunity to reflect and grow from the experiences that have shaped us. Carrying the threads of the past onward, we weave the tapestry of our lives, creating the pattern for a story that is uniquely, undeniably yours. Leave us a review on Itunes!

Erin Frey and Ti Zhao, are the co-founders of Kip - an app which aids in locating a quality therapist and helps you measure your progress. In this episode, they sit down with Jerry to talk about the issues they run into and the importance of effective communication for a growing team. More importantly, they talk about what makes them tick and how their ability to work together as leaders is one of the most important things they can focus on at this stage of their company. This includes emotional literacy and helping each other regulate when tough issues arise. What does your cofounder (or partner) do when they are scared, angry, sad, triggered? Do you know what they need in that moment? Making time to discover the operating instructions for your partners solidifies not only your communication with each other, but it also solidifies your organization to defy the odds that 89% of startups fail. As Jerry notes, tending to good communication sets culture, direction, and creates the conditions in which raising capital is enhanced. Leave us a review on Itunes!

Rick takes Morty and Summer to a Mad Max-esque version of Earth, where they are chased by a group of scavengers, known as the Death Stalkers.

Summer doesn't like how the change has softened the Death Stalkers, so she follows Rick and Morty back home. Before leaving, Rick steals the Isotope. The experience helps the kids overcome their parents' divorce. Summer reconciles with Jerry, and Morty realizes he must live his own life.

Guided by courage and an inner passion, Jerry gave away his possessions and began a journey based on complete surrender to life experience. Join us as we learn about Jerry's book, The Inspired Heart, as he shares his compelling personal story about trusting in the inherent goodness in life. As Jerry says, "Enlightenment is not a grand finale that leaves us blissfully risen, Buddha-like above the suffering of the world. It is a deep and unconditional surrender to what already exists, and a total trust that a larger, inherent intelligence will show us the way..." His story is one of personal transformation, and illustrates how we might open to the mystery, establish trust and find deeper meaning in the challenging events of our lives.Support the show (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=9KH86UYLN4H4J&source=url)
