Most collision shops have spent the last 50 years letting insurance companies bring them work and calling it a strategy. It worked for a long time. It's working a lot less now, and the shops that haven't built any presence outside of their DRP relationships are starting to feel it. This episode is for every body shop owner who has ever said "we don't need to market" and is now wondering why the bays are quiet.In this episode of Maximum Octane, Kim Hickey, Jason Patel, and ATI collision team leader Mike Paim sit down with Daniel Burkholder, founder of BodyShop Marketing and author of a complete internet marketing guide for the collision industry. Daniel grew up in his family's collision shop, spent years in shop management, and in 2023 launched the only marketing firm in the country built exclusively for body shops. He has seen the same blind spots across shops coast to coast, and he is not shy about naming them.The conversation covers why the collision industry's historic dependence on DRPs has created a marketing blind spot that is becoming a real liability, why SEO and AI search results are now the highest ROI channel for body shops, and why spending money on marketing only when things get slow is exactly backwards. They get into brand building, the difference between search-based and awareness-based marketing, the importance of tracking every dollar spent, and why the shop that does not tell its own story is letting the algorithm write one for it. Daniel's two-part closing message is about as direct as it gets.Tune in to episode 146 of Maximum Octane if you own or coach a collision shop and you are still relying on referrals and insurance relationships to fill the calendar. The market is shifting, the search landscape is shifting, and Daniel makes a compelling case that the shops building their brand right now are the ones that will be standing when it does.Episode Takeaways:01:54 Why body shops came out of COVID fully booked and still skipped marketing, and why that mindset is exactly what puts them in a bad spot today07:01 The marketing spend benchmarks most collision shops have never heard: 5% of revenue to maintain, 10% to grow, 15% to grow aggressively09:21 How decades of DRP dependence became a limiting belief, and why shops convinced they "can't market" are wrong but not entirely without reason13:51 Why younger shop owners who think they can handle marketing themselves are making the same mistake as owners who have never touched it20:26 Where BodyShop Marketing sees the best ROI for clients right now: organic search, Google Ads, and the rapidly growing AI search landscape21:28 The second biggest problem Daniel sees across the industry: shops spending money on marketing with zero tracking and no idea what's working25:15 Why you can't turn on marketing when things get slow, and why Daniel will turn away shops that are already in trouble26:10 The long game of brand building: what it looks like when a shop owner's name becomes what people are searching for, not just the service29:29 The Safelite and Nike argument for why collision shops should be marketing even when they are fully booked34:32 Daniel's two closing takeaways for every shop owner: start marketing now, and track every single dollar you spendConnect with Daniel Burkholder:LinkedInBodyShop MarketingConnect with Mike Paim:LinkedInLet's connect:WebsiteLinkedInFacebookEmail: info@maximumoctane.com Hosted on Acast.

Mateo 15, 21-28En aquel tiempo, Jesús se retiró a la comarca de Tiro y Sidón. Entonces una mujer cananea le salió al encuentro y se puso a gritar: "Señor, hijo de David, ten compasión de mí. Mi hija está terriblemente atormentada por un demonio". Jesús no le contestó una sola palabra; pero los discípulos se acercaron y le rogaban: "Atiéndela, porque viene gritando detrás de nosotros". Él les contestó: "Yo no he sido enviado sino a las ovejas descarriadas de la casa de Israel". Ella se acercó entonces a Jesús y postrada ante él, le dijo: "¡Señor, ayúdame!" Él le respondió: "No está bien quitarles el pan a los hijos para echárselo a los perritos". Pero ella replicó: "Es cierto, Señor; pero también los perritos se comen las migajas que caen de la mesa de sus amos". Entonces Jesús le respondió: "Mujer, ¡qué grande es tu fe! Que se cumpla lo que deseas". Y en aquel mismo instante quedó curada su hija.

The Spawncast was live at Too Many Games in June 2026! Here's our panel from the show.
Most shop owners don't know what their business is worth until someone makes an offer, and by then it's too late to be strategic. Whether that unsolicited call catches you off guard or your retirement plan is quietly resting on a number you made up, this episode is a reality check that every shop owner needs to hear sooner rather than later.In this episode of Maximum Octane, Kim Hickey sits down with Rich Portelance, founder of Pierce Ridge Capital, an M&A firm that specializes in helping independent shop owners buy, sell, and grow. Rich came into the tire and auto space and quickly noticed the same thing everywhere: owners had no real sense of what their shops were worth. Pierce Ridge now partners with ATI to bring professional valuation services to shops that should have been doing this all along, at a price point that makes the old "$200,000 valuation" myth pretty hard to hold onto.The conversation is packed with practical, eye-opening information: how valuations actually work and what they cost, why owning your building doesn't change your business value the way you might think, how personal expenses run through the business affect your sale price, and when you can and can't add your own salary back into the numbers. Rich also tackles some of the biggest misconceptions head-on, including goodwill, blue skies, and the "just multiply my revenue" formula, and walks through a cautionary story about an incredible shop that nearly sold for three times expectations and then fell apart at the finish line because the owner was the business.Tune in to episode 143 of Maximum Octane if you've ever gotten a call from someone wanting to buy your shop and had no idea what to say, or if you're planning on selling someday and haven't actually validated whether the number in your head is real.Episode Takeaways:01:39 Why most shop owners have no idea what their business is worth, and why that's a dangerous position to be in03:52 What a valuation actually costs: the $200K myth debunked, with real pricing between $2K and $10K05:39 How the 2.5x to 5x multiple works and what moves your shop up or down in that range07:13 Why owning your real estate doesn't change your business valuation, but good lease terms do09:58 The retirement math problem: why "I'll sell for a million" is rarely based on anything real12:13 How to handle personal expenses run through the business, and why tracking them actually helps your sale price14:23 When you can't add your salary back into the numbers, and why working in your business instead of on it quietly kills your valuation20:44 The shop that almost sold for three times its expected value, and why the deal collapsed the day before closing25:45 Owner-carried notes: why Rich advises taking the lower all-cash offer almost every time28:24 Why an M&A advisor is not the same as a real estate agent or a broker, and why that distinction matters when it's time to closeConnect with Rich Portelance:LinkedInInstagramPierce Ridge CapitalLet's connect:WebsiteLinkedInFacebookEmail: info@maximumoctane.com Hosted on Acast.

As I mentioned in the podcast I want to make sure you have solid references/resources to access to expand your study. The first is related to treaties/covenants in the ancient near east. I did a podcast on the Ark of the Covenant that is key to this lesson. Here's the link to that Bible study - https://lightofmenorah.podbean.com/e/exodus-63-exod-2510-16-the-ark-of-the-covenant/ Here are three links as regards ancient treaties/covenants.

How did I come up with this exact year? I didn't come up with it but real scholars using solid archaeology give us the dates in the Bible of Exodus, the times of Joseph and his father Jacob, and even the dates when Abraham entered Canaan. Here's the link to the critical lesson of these dates and how we know they are real and exact … Exodus 5 Part 1 - https://youtu.be/8XHvXUSAdRY?si=rWzmXx7drVmL8eou Exodus 5 Part 2 - https://youtu.be/hgFM23lLmDo?si=Mr_Gt_ZPXkxttPk3 Who is the Egyptian goddess Ma'at?

TC #8 AND TC #3 Hail, Hetch-abhu, who comest forth from Ta-she, I have not slain the cattle belonging to the god. Finally I made the connection between the 3000 that died at Sinai, the Mountain of God, and the 3000 who were saved on Pentecost in Jerusalem, also the Mountain of God. My teacher, Ray Vander Laan and others put together this awesome correlation between the Mountains of God and the Covenants. Check it out. THE MOUNTAINS OF GOD AT SHAVUOT AMAZING CONNECTIONS Both events occurred on mountains known as "the mountain of God." Exo 24:13 So Moses arose with Joshua his servant, and Moses went up to the mountain of God. (Ex. 24:13; Isa. 2:3). Isa 2:3 And many peoples will come and say, "Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, To the house of the God of Jacob; That He may teach us concerning His ways And that we may walk in His paths." For the law will go forth from Zion And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. Both events happened on day 50. They arrived at Sinai in the third month on the very day (Ex. 19:1). Exo 19:1 In the third month after the sons of Israel had gone out of the land of Egypt, on that very day they came into the wilderness of Sinai. Hebrew “on that very day” means they arrived on the third day of the third month exactly 50 days after their first Passover meal in Egypt. The feast of Shavuot is to happen on the 50th day after the weekly sabbath during Passover and Unleavened Bread (Lev. 23:15-16). Both involved similar sounds and symbols, such as wind, fire, and voices (Ex. 19:16-19; Acts 2:1-3). Note that the Hebrew for "thunder" (kolot) means "voices" (Acts 2:4). Jewish tradition said that the Israelites heard God speak in 70 languages or, to translate direct from the Hebrew, God spoke in tongues! Both events involved the presence of God (Ex. 19:18,20; Acts 2:4). About 3,000 people died because of their sin when Moses received the Torah (Ex. 32:28). About 3,000 people believed (were born again into new life) when the Spirit came (Acts 2:41). At Mount Sinai, God wrote his revelation on stone tablets (Ex. 31:18). On the fulfillment of Pentecost, God wrote his law on people's hearts as he had promised He would (2 Cor. 3:3; Jer. 31:33). Torah means "teaching." The Spirit, given on Shavuot, also became the "Teacher" of the new community of Jesus' followers (John 14:26) Many Jews from all over the world heard their own language from a bunch of kids, young men and women, who only knew Aramaic, Greek and Hebrew. The whole world heard the Gospel!! It was as if it was SINAI REPEATED!! Both events were times when God's people entered a NEW covenant with the Lord. Israel became a new nation, a nation of priests, and nation that would be the light of the world (Ex. 19:6, Isa. 49:6). And, for us, we have entered a NEW covenant with the Lord as we take the cup of Messiah in His Last Seder meal (Luke 22:20). We too become a new people, a new nation, a royal priesthood (1 Pet. 2:9-10). We to are to be the light of the world (Mat.5:14, Acts 1:7-8). But, this time, this covenant is the covenant to restore all people to Himself as our sins our totally cleansed and forgiven. This is the final covenant for Jew and Gentile to become one flock with one shepherd, the Good Shepherd, the Messiah Jesus (John 10:14-16). On Shavuot there is a special sacrifice. Amazingly it uses two loaves of LEAVENED BREAD (Lev. 23:17). Is God giving us a picture that Jew and Gentile are a new people, a new culture, a holy nation, His two flocks coming together as ONE permeated and saturated with His Holy Spirit dwelling in us and through us? Is God helping us see that His Bible is ONE book, about ONE God, about ONE Gospel, ONE Baptism, and ONE Savor of all – Yeshua! Who is this guy, Rev. Ferret?

In this episode, we kick things off at the nation's busiest container gateway, where frontloading is fueling a massive early peak season surge. The Port of Los Angeles handled over 840,000 TEUs in May, up seventeen percent from a year ago, driven by strong inventory replenishment, concerns about fuel costs, trade-policy uncertainty, and preparation for upcoming retail seasons. Loaded imports surged twenty-six percent year-over-year, rebounding sharply from May 2025 when import traffic was severely undercut by Liberation Day tariffs on China. Meanwhile, the truckload market's upswing is officially ushering in driver pay hikes across the sector. Joliet-based carrier GP Transco increased pay for all company drivers by five cents per mile, pushing the upper end to seventy-two cents per mile, while Dubuque's Hirschbach announced a ten-cent per mile increase for over-the-road drivers. A supply-led trucking recovery has prompted the need for enhanced driver pay and perks, with heightened regulatory enforcement purging noncompliant drivers from the market since last fall. Finally, the Federal Railroad Administration is greenlighting expanded testing of high-tech track inspection systems as Class I railroads prepare for a major safety upgrade. The FRA recently approved a five-year waiver that lets railroads expand the use of Automated Track Inspection technology, which uses lasers, cameras, sensors, and ground-penetrating radar to scan tracks for defects. CSX plans to start using the waiver on July first, deploying the technology across over three thousand route miles, with early data showing ATI reduces track geometry defects by ninety percent in some cases.

ATI — the educational arm of Bill Gothard's IBLP — shut down in 2021. The organization that spent decades providing curriculum to homeschooling families including the Duggars ceased operations without remediation, without outreach to former students, and without any institutional acknowledgment of the educational gaps it created. The adults it produced are still rebuilding.This week's True Crime Today review examines the most consequential conversations from our series on the Duggar family curriculum — the ideological architecture of the Wisdom Booklets, the institutional reach of the Character First program, and the measurable outcomes for adults who completed the full IBLP educational track.The curriculum's law and government modules framed democratic governance without divine authority as utopianism. The French Revolution was presented as a consequence of collective disobedience to God. Illness was attributed to failures of spiritual submission. The authority structure that governed the entire system concentrated power in a single individual — Bill Gothard — while requiring total compliance from everyone beneath him. The Character First program extended this framework into public school systems by repackaging obedience-based theology as secular character education.The educational outcomes document the cost. Former students report math instruction that ended at fractions. ACT scores achieved without any corresponding GPA that higher education institutions would recognize. Professional credentials — including law degrees obtained through IBLP-adjacent institutions — that proved nonfunctional in practice. Adults who lacked basic understanding of their own physiology into their twenties. The system produced compliance. It did not produce competence. When it shut down, the people who had spent their formative years inside it were left to close the gap on their own — with no institutional support and no public accountability for what was taken from them.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
They memorized every booklet. They followed every rule. They submitted to every authority figure above them in the chain. And when the adults who went through the Duggar family's IBLP curriculum finally stepped outside the system, they discovered that the education they spent their entire childhood receiving was worth almost nothing.This week's Hidden Killers review brings together the most critical conversations from our series on the IBLP — what the curriculum actually taught, how it infiltrated institutions beyond the families who used it, and what happened to the people it was supposed to prepare for life.The Wisdom Booklets didn't just teach fringe theology — they rewrote entire subjects through an obedience lens. The law and government modules framed the French Revolution as divine punishment for disobedience. Democracy without God-ordained authority was presented as dangerous utopianism. Illness was tied to spiritual failure. The entire framework was designed to produce compliance, not comprehension. And the man who built it — Bill Gothard — sat at the top of an authority structure that demanded accountability from everyone beneath him while providing none of his own.The Character First program exported that ideology into public schools, repackaging obedience doctrine as character education. Schools adopted it without understanding what they were bringing in. The authority umbrella that held the IBLP together wasn't incidental to the curriculum — it was the curriculum. Everything taught inside it reinforced the idea that questioning the structure was equivalent to questioning God.The adults who emerged tell the rest of the story. Math that stopped at fractions. Degrees that didn't transfer. Bodies they didn't understand until their twenties. ATI shut down in 2021. The people it spent decades shaping were left to rebuild from scratch — with no support, no remediation, and no acknowledgment from the institution that failed them.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Character First program was adopted by public schools across the country. It was marketed as character education — teaching kids values like responsibility, attentiveness, and obedience. What those schools didn't know was where it came from. The program was built on the same theological authority framework that powered Bill Gothard's IBLP — the system that shaped the Duggar family and thousands of others — repackaged in secular language and pushed into institutions that never would have accepted it if they'd understood its origins.This week's review brings together the most significant conversations from our Duggar family curriculum series — the ideology behind the teachings, the system that protected the man at the top, and the adults who are living with the consequences.The Wisdom Booklets taught children that the French Revolution was God's punishment for disobedience. That democracy without divine authority was a dangerous idea. That physical illness was connected to spiritual failure. Every subject — history, science, government, health — was filtered through a theology of submission. The authority structure was designed so that accountability only moved in one direction: upward toward a man who had structured himself out of any oversight whatsoever. When Bill Gothard's conduct finally became public, the system didn't course-correct. It collapsed under the weight of its own hypocrisy — but not before producing a generation of adults who were never given the tools to function outside it.Math through fractions. ACT scores with no transferable GPA. Adults who didn't understand their own bodies until well into adulthood. Law degrees that couldn't function in practice. They followed every instruction the system gave them. The system gave them almost nothing usable in return. ATI shut down in 2021. Nobody came back for the people it had already spent decades failing.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Duggar family curriculum promised a college-equivalent education. It produced adults who couldn't pass entrance exams, couldn't use their degrees, and didn't understand their own bodies until their twenties. One woman was taught math only through fractions — because baking was all she'd need it for. Graduates of IBLP's law school discovered they couldn't practice in most states. Young adults were funneled into unpaid labor at IBLP facilities instead of college. ATI shut down in 2021 without ever going back for the children it already failed. This is the final episode of our Wisdom Booklets series — the human cost of a curriculum that worked exactly as designed.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Her father stopped her math education at fractions. His law degree couldn't be used in his own state. She had the test scores for scholarships but no transcript the real world recognized. The Wisdom Booklets — the Duggar family curriculum — produced a generation of adults who are now rebuilding from scratch. Filling in academic gaps. Unlearning trained self-blame. Teaching their own children the things they were never taught. ATI ceased enrollment in 2021 without remediation, acknowledgment, or apology. In this final episode, we tell the stories of the adults the system made — and the lives they're building without permission.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Survivors of the Institute in Basic Life Principles describe a recovery process measured in decades rather than months. Former members report entering marriages through courtship systems that prevented independent evaluation of potential partners, receiving educations through the Advanced Training Institute curriculum that left them unable to meet standardized testing requirements, and experiencing faith crises that extended beyond organizational departure to fundamental theological reconstruction. Multiple survivors have reported harassment from Gothard's remaining loyalists after speaking publicly, and Gothard himself publicly characterized his accusers as participants in a conspiracy. Jinger Duggar Vuolo has described her recovery as a process of separating her personal faith from Gothard's doctrinal framework. Recovering Grace continues to operate as a support community for adults raised inside ATI.The organizational and political infrastructure Gothard built over five decades remains substantially intact. IBLP at its peak reported approximately sixty-three million dollars in earnings according to public tax filings. The organization maintained properties across multiple states and operated in over a dozen countries. Gothard's political strategy — internally designated the Joshua Generation — aimed to place homeschooled young people into government positions. The political connections were documented and operational: governors attended IBLP conferences, a member of Congress served on the organization's board, and Hobby Lobby founder David Green purchased properties for IBLP's use including a former college campus in East Texas that now serves as the organization's headquarters.Josh Duggar, raised within the IBLP system, worked as a lobbyist for the Family Research Council in Washington and was later convicted on federal charges related to child sexual abuse material, receiving a sentence of twelve and a half years.Gothard, ninety-one, resigned from IBLP in 2014 after thirty-four women accused him of misconduct and inappropriate behavior, with some alleging the conduct occurred when they were minors. An internal investigation found he had acted "inappropriately." He has never been criminally charged. In June 2025, the Texas Supreme Court denied IBLP's petition to dismiss a lawsuit alleging its teachings were designed to facilitate conditions enabling abuse. Joseph Duggar was arrested in March 2026 on Florida felony charges of lewd and lascivious behavior on a child under twelve. He is presumed innocent. IBLP continues to operate from its Texas headquarters. Its curriculum and teachings remain available. The homeschool legal infrastructure developed in part through IBLP's advocacy network remains operative. This concludes the five-part investigative series.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Freedom felt like drowning. That's what former IBLP members describe when they talk about the first months and years after leaving. Not relief. Disorientation. The collapse of the only framework they'd ever had for understanding the world.The Institute in Basic Life Principles was designed to be total. It governed education, relationships, marriage, dress, thought, and spiritual identity. When someone left, they didn't just lose a belief system. They lost every relationship, every social structure, and every metric by which they understood their own value.Women who entered marriages through IBLP's courtship system found themselves in relationships they couldn't evaluate independently — and when those relationships became abusive, the theology told them submission was faithfulness and divorce was catastrophe. Their instincts had been trained out of them. They had no vocabulary for what was being done to them.The education gap was immediate. ATI graduates couldn't pass standardized tests. They had no work experience that translated. They lacked foundational knowledge the outside world took for granted.And the harassment followed them out. Survivors who spoke publicly were called liars and accused of working for Satan. Gothard himself dismissed his accusers as conspirators.Recovering Grace, founded in 2011 by adults raised inside ATI, remains the primary support network. Books by Jinger Vuolo, Rebekah Drumsta, and others have brought the recovery process into public view.Recovery from IBLP takes decades, not months. This is Part 4. The cost of leaving a system designed to make departure feel like death.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
