Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches! In this episode, Alyssa and Jessica from the marketing team explain why direct mail remains a cornerstone of real estate marketing, even in a crowded digital landscape. They highlight how the moment someone physically touches a mail piece creates stronger memory recall than scrolling past emails or banners. The discussion covers when to mail, what to send, and how to design campaigns that stay visible over time. Guidance is tailored to probate, divorce, pre-probate, late mortgage, and other niche leads, emphasizing credible branding, simple typography, and consistent color palettes. You'll get practical tips on envelope design, letters, postcards, brochures, and useful add-ons like checklists and resource guides. They stress testing and segmentation, treating non-responders, warm leads, and new prospects differently while keeping messaging cohesive. The episode also covers combining mail with digital channels for higher results, with benchmarks showing 9% house-list and 5% prospect-list responses, improving further with email, retargeting, SEO, and social. Real-world examples illustrate how recurring touches build trust, and how automation keeps campaigns running while you scale. Finally, Jessica invites listeners to book time for personalized branding guidance, emphasizing that long-term, multi-channel campaigns move probate and other niche deals forward effectively. Key Takeaways: Direct mail is strongest when paired with digital marketing. Combining mail with websites, landing pages, and online follow-up creates multiple touchpoints that drive engagement. Physical mail captures attention in ways digital cannot. When someone handles a mail piece, it boosts attention and memory recall, helping your message stand out. Consistent branding builds trust. Using the same visuals, messaging, and tone across letters, postcards, and online channels reinforces credibility over time. Segmenting leads and testing improves ROI. Targeting specific audiences and experimenting with styles, messaging, and timing identifies the best response rates. Long sales cycles reward persistence. In niches like probate and divorce, consistent outreach keeps you top-of-mind until prospects act. Automation keeps campaigns consistent. Autopilot systems and scheduled mailings run marketing smoothly with less manual effort. QR codes and landing pages accelerate conversions. Quick access bridges offline and online engagement, making it easier for prospects to act.

Alex unpacks why Carl von Clausewitz's warnings about the unpredictable pull of war feel especially urgent as the United States edges closer to conflict with Iran. With the new Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei recently announced as Iran's supreme leader, political shifts in Tehran may inject more radical elements into the mix, potentially deepening the trap. Alex explores Clausewitz's paradoxical trinity—the interplay of people, military, and government—and how this complex system makes escalation nonlinear: small strikes, public sentiment, and political decisions can cascade into outcomes no leader intends. From fog and friction on the battlefield to the challenge of identifying Iran's center of gravity, Alex will show why policy alone struggles to control a system that can quickly take on a life of its own.

Your Childhood Wrote Your Leadership Code (Now Rewrite It) In this episode of Richer Soul, Rocky Lalvani sits down with psychologist and leadership expert Nik Kinley for a conversation that connects the dots between childhood programming, leadership behavior, money mindset, and performance under pressure. Nik shares research showing leaders spend about 72% of their day running on "automatic," which helps explain why even smart, trained executives can repeat the same patterns, especially when uncertainty is high and time is short. You'll hear why Nik believes we've shifted into an era of "structural uncertainty," how the "power trap" affects empathy and truth-telling, and a simple tool you can use immediately: communicating in probabilities (like "I'm 60% sure") to invite candor and surface risk earlier. If you care about leading with clarity, improving decision-making, and understanding the invisible forces shaping your relationship with money and authority, this episode delivers. Learning insights The "72% Autopilot" reality: Leaders report spending roughly 72% of their day operating automatically relying on instincts more than deliberate thought. Why learning doesn't translate into behavior: Under workplace speed/pressure, the thoughtful "HBR leader" image breaks down and defaults take over. Genetics plays a bigger role than people expect: Nik cites research suggesting aspects of self-regulation/emotional expressiveness can be 60–70% genetically inherited (on average). Your conflict style has a default setting: Many people lean toward one of three conflict stances, smooth it over, pull away/observe, or go in swinging, often shaped before school. Uncertainty changes brains and behavior: Nik argues uncertainty increases threat sensitivity and cognitive load, making instinctive reactions more likely. From volatility to "structural uncertainty": Post-COVID, Nik suggests uncertainty is more "baked in," compounding misalignment and creating strategic drift in organizations. The Power Trap effect: Leadership roles can create distance (less truth reaches you) and boost ego (more overconfidence risk). A practical tool for candor: Speaking in probabilities (e.g., "I'm 60% sure…") encourages others to voice uncertainty and risks earlier. Why this conversation matters Most leaders think they're making conscious choices, but Nik Kinley shares research suggesting leaders spend about 72% of their day running on automatic, especially when they're moving fast and don't have time to think. That "autopilot" is often built from childhood programming, family scripts, and even inherited temperament, which means your biggest leadership patterns can show up most strongly under pressure, exactly when it matters most. Nik also explains why leadership has become harder in a world of structural uncertainty, and how power itself can quietly reduce empathy and distort feedback, making it easier for leaders to drift into average without realizing it. Money learning Nik's money story is a clear example of how early experiences can hardwire financial behavior for decades. He describes growing up with "Victorian values" through his grandparents—saving, security, and risk aversion—and then moving into a phase of debt and struggle when he left home and self-funded university. That early mix created a relationship with money that wasn't just practical, but emotional: debt felt like shame, and security became a core driver. Over time, that programming showed up as a strong preference to protect the family's base first—avoiding big financial risks, and only becoming more open to investing once the mortgage was paid off and there was truly "extra" capital to work with. The conversation also highlights that attitudes toward investing are partly cultural: in some places trading is normalized, while in the UK investing can carry an undertone of "gambling," which reinforces caution even when the math might suggest otherwise. Key takeaways This episode makes the case that leadership isn't mainly about what you know, it's about what you default to, especially under pressure. Nik shares that leaders report spending about 72% of their day on "automatic," which explains why good intentions and training often don't translate into changed behavior at work. He warns that most leaders don't flame out—they slowly drift into average through small, repeated missteps that are hard to notice in the moment. In today's post-COVID environment, where uncertainty may be structural rather than occasional, those automatic patterns become even more dominant, so the job is not just agility, but maintaining strategic grip and resisting drift over time. Add to that the "power trap": authority naturally creates distance (people filter the truth) and boosts ego (overconfidence), making it harder to get clean information and stay empathetic. A practical antidote Nik offers is disarmingly simple: communicate in probabilities, be clear without pretending certainty, because calibrated uncertainty can invite others to speak up, share risks, and tell you what they're really seeing. Guest Bio Nik is a London-based psychologist, psychotherapist, leadership consultant and coach with over 35 years' experience, specialising in assessment and behaviour change. His career spans commercial roles, senior HR positions at BP and Barclays, consulting with YSC and Accenture, and a decade working as a forensic psychotherapist in prisons. He thus has the unique experience of having worked with royalty, criminals, CEOs, politicians and children. He has assessed over 1,500 senior leaders worldwide, coached CEOs and leadership teams across sectors, and led global culture-change programmes in some of the worlds largest companies. An author and media commentator, interviewed by the likes of the BBC and The Economist, he has for the last 12 years led a research programme that has resulted in nine books, the latest of which is The Power Trap (2025).

Here's The Caveat... Intentional Leadership with Coach Bob Reish
Welcome to Here's the Caveat.Today we're talking about As Was His Custom.Because the habits you return to under pressure reveal what actually formed you. Great leadership isn't built on moments of inspiration. It's built on customs, disciplines, and convictions practiced long before they're tested.This episode is about why what you do consistently matters more than what you say occasionally.Let's get into it.
Are you truly living — or just reacting?Most people move through life on autopilot, shaped by childhood conditioning, societal expectations, and the need for external validation. Over time, this disconnect from our authentic self leads to confusion, distraction, anxiety, and a quiet sense of “something's missing.”In this grounded and powerful conversation, I sit down with Arno Schumans to explore identity, awareness, and what it really means to live in alignment with who you truly are.We unpack:• How identity is formed through conditioning• Why so many people feel disconnected from themselves• The psychology of autopilot vs intentional living• Awareness as the foundation for personal transformation• Emotional alignment and inner truth• Letting go of external validation and people-pleasing• Living with clarity, presence, and purposeThis episode bridges psychology, consciousness, self-discovery, and personal responsibility.If you've been feeling stuck, distracted, or disconnected from your deeper self — this conversation will bring clarity.This Episode Is For You If:– You feel like you're living on autopilot– You struggle with people-pleasing or external validation– You feel disconnected from your authentic identity– You want more clarity and emotional alignment– You're seeking purpose beyond achievement– You're ready to live intentionally rather than reactivelyIf you've ever asked, “Who am I really beneath conditioning?” — this is for you.What You'll Learn• How early influences shape identity• Why awareness is the doorway to change• The cost of living unconsciously• How to reconnect with intuition• The role of personal responsibility in growth• Practical insights for living with presence and embodimentTimestamps00:00 – Introduction02:18 – Identity, Conditioning & Early Influences05:45 – Losing Connection with the Self09:20 – Awareness as the Beginning of Change13:05 – Autopilot vs Intentional Living16:40 – Emotional Alignment & Inner Truth20:15 – Letting Go of External Validation24:05 – Purpose Beyond Achievement28:10 – Intuition & Presence32:05 – Personal Responsibility & Conscious Choice36:10 – Integration & Embodiment40:05 – Closing Insights43:10 – Final Thoughts

Starting off in FOLLOW UP, we've got a tax economist who actually made money betting against the "efficiency" of Elon's budget-slashing fever dreams, while Tesla is busy trying to dodge a $243 million jury verdict for an Autopilot-assisted fatality. Not content with being legally liable, Tesla is also suing the California DMV because they're offended someone called their "Autopilot" and "Full Self-Driving" marketing deceptive—ironic, since Jack Dorsey just "proactively" halved the staff at Block to make room for more AI slop. Speaking of which, Goldman Sachs is here to remind us that all this AI spending added a grand total of zero to the US GDP last year, mostly because we're just exporting all that cash to overseas chip makers while 80% of execs admit the tech hasn't actually done anything for productivity yet.Moving into IN THE NEWS, Sam Altman had the audacity to compare ChatGPT's energy-sucking habits to the 20-year evolution of a human, though the internet wasn't exactly buying the "my bot is just like a baby" defense. Anthropic actually stood its ground against the Pentagon's demand for killer robots and mass surveillance, so naturally, the military just signed a deal to put Elon's Grok in their classified systems instead—because what could go wrong with an "edgy" LLM in the war room? Meanwhile, cities are dumping AI surveillance contracts as citizens start a literal "smash-the-snitch-box" campaign against Flock's license plate readers, Google's AI is busy inserting racial slurs into news alerts, and the White House is apparently harboring a staffer moonlighting as a racist "masterpiece" creator on X. We've also got Reddit being slapped with a $20 million fine in the UK for being lazy with age checks, while Discord and Apple scramble to build verification tools that hopefully won't leak your entire identity to a hacker in Belarus.In MEDIA CANDY, the Paramount-Skydance merger is leaving the industry in a cold sweat of "synergy" layoffs, but at least we're getting more Game of Thrones spinoffs and Star Trek reboots to rot our brains. Face/Off 2 lost its director, Ryan Coogler is taking on The X-Files, and Google wants to use AI to turn music into generic "lo-fi" background noise for the masses.Over in APPS & DOODADS, OpenAI is planning a 2027 smart speaker that literally watches you through a camera—because you definitely wanted a $300 Sam Altman-shaped eye in your kitchen—while the Dark Sky creators are back with "Acme Weather" for the low price of $25 a year.We wrap up THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE with a deep dive into "Under Pressure" and Coruscant's urban sprawl, leaving us to reminisce about the days when KPT Bryce was the pinnacle of tech—back when "generative art" was just a fractal that took six hours to render.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

SAASTR 843: Software Stocks Have Massively Crashed. Here's What Founders Need to Know. SaaStr founder and CEO Jason Lemkin joins the TBPN show for a wide-ranging conversation on the state of SaaS, AI, and venture capital. Jason shares how he shrunk his team from 15 to 3 people by going all-in on AI agents, why he's lost patience with companies that haven't re-accelerated growth, and the real economics behind running large-scale events. He breaks down why PE has "said goodbye to B2B," how vibe coding is flooding the market with competitors, and what's making the IPO window both exciting and treacherous. Plus: why the agent that closed a $100K deal on a Saturday night matters more than any demo day pitch, and how AI discoverability is quietly reshaping how businesses choose their software stack. --------------------- This episode is Sponsored in part by HappyFox: Imagine having AI agents for every support task — one that triages tickets, another that catches duplicates, one that spots churn risks.

Are your sales reps following a script, or thinking strategically about each opportunity? Jeff Cramer, Sales Coach for Nolan Consulting Group and founder of Perceptive Learning, tackles one of the most common problems in trades sales: autopilot selling. When reps run the same process for every customer, they create tactical fatigue—high volume, low profit, and constant price pressure. Jeff explains how to build a sales GPS that aligns every action with your business goals, why strategy must come before tactics, and how role-playing can transform your team's preparedness. If your reps are busy but not profitable, this conversation will change how you approach sales.Today's Podcast is brought to you by Graco

What if the reason you keep ending up in draining relationships has nothing to do with what's wrong with you — and everything to do with how your brain operates?In this episode, I break down discernment — the skill that transforms every relationship in your life, from your marriage to your friendships to how you co-parent with your ex. Here's the truth: your brain runs on autopilot. It creates shortcuts for everything — including the people closest to you. And when those shortcuts go unchecked, you stop seeing people for who they are. You start operating from a script that was written for you long before you were born.It goes deeper than biology. From childhood, women get trained to override their own reality. "He's pulling your hair because he likes you." Sound familiar? That messaging doesn't stop in grade school. It follows you into your marriage, your dating life, and your friendships. It teaches you to reframe harm as love and to silence your own experience.I share my own story of trying to wake up from autopilot during my first marriage — and the painful responses I received when I started asking real questions. Breaking free from the script is messy. But staying plugged in has a cost too.Discernment means slowing down, removing the filters, and backing yourself up on your own experience. No shame. No self-blame. Just clarity.If something in your life feels off — if what you're giving never matches what you're getting back — this episode is your invitation to start asking real questions.Ready to get off autopilot in your relationships?

A judge recently rejected Tesla's legal attempt to reverse a massive $243 million jury award stemming from a 2019 fatal collision. The original court case determined that the manufacturer shared responsibility for the accident because of flaws in its Autopilot driver assistance software.Although the driver was found to be more at fault for the crash, the jury specifically leveled punitive damages against the electric vehicle company. Tesla's defense team claimed the motorist was entirely to blame, but the court maintained that no new evidence or legal arguments justified overturning the previous decision. Consequently, the automaker remains liable for its portion of the financial penalty as determined by the Florida jury.
Living a life you've outgrown — or one that was never truly yours — has a cost. Burnout. Disconnection. Resentment. And the longer you wait for clarity to magically appear, the more expensive it becomes. If you're navigating self-doubt, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or quiet exhaustion, you don't need more information. You need a clear path. You need structure. You need support that helps you move from self-abandonment to reinvention in a way that actually lasts. In this episode, I introduce The Permission Project — my nine-week live coaching experience designed to guide you step-by-step through the Eight Dimensions of Reinvention. We begin with vision so you can get clear on what you actually want. We recalibrate what no longer fits. We uncover the beliefs running your life. We strengthen self-worth, build boundaries that hold, and develop the self-trust required to make aligned choices. This is identity-level work. And when you follow a proven framework instead of relying on motivation alone, change sticks. You stop spiraling. You stop outsourcing your authority. You begin waking up to a life that feels aligned, intentional, and yours. What we explore: The true cost of staying stuck Why burnout is often rooted in self-abandonment The difference between motivation and structured transformation The Eight Dimensions of Reinvention and how they build lasting clarity What makes The Permission Project a guided, supported experience If you're ready to stop paying the cost of staying stuck and start your reinvention, you can learn more and join us inside The Permission Project at https://nancylevin.com/join Connect with me: Newsletternancylevin.comInstagramFacebook
Build a Marketing "Vending Machine": A Predictable System for Leads & Clients Pat Rigsby explains the concept of creating a marketing "vending machine"—a predictable system where you invest in a front-end marketing process and reliably generate leads and clients. He outlines the steps: identify exactly who you want to serve and the problems/goals they have; determine where those people are so you can place your message in the highest-traffic locations (online or offline); create a simple, desire-based introductory asset (such as a book, guide, or lead magnet) followed by an experiential front-end offer, with a preference for free offers to reduce friction and get people through the door. Once you capture contact information, build a robust follow-up system to create brand awareness, familiarity, and know-like-trust, then present a clear offer focused on outcomes and the reasons people struggle to achieve or maintain results. He emphasizes delivering results, building deeper influence once clients are "under your roof," and moving them into an ongoing program. Pat encourages replacing episodic, tactic-by-tactic marketing with this consistent pipeline for stability, freedom, and wealth-building, and invites viewers to email pat@patrigsby.com for help through his Marketing Machine partner program. 00:00 Create Your Own Marketing "Vending Machine" (Intro) 00:10 The Origin Story: Dean Jackson's Vending Machine Concept 01:42 Step 1: Define Who You Serve & What They Want 03:09 Step 2: Put the Machine Where the People Are 04:19 Step 3: Build a Two-Step Intro Offer (Desire → Experience) 05:10 Why Free Front-End Offers Work (Getting Them Through the Door) 06:52 Follow-Up System: Know, Like, Trust on Autopilot 07:33 Convert to the Core Program: Deliver Outcomes & Retain Clients 09:04 Make It Predictable: Percentages, Pipeline, and Consistency 10:20 Wrap-Up + How to Get Help Building Your Marketing Machine
This Day in Legal History: Order 9066On this day in legal history, enforcement of Executive Order 9066 began in earnest following its signing by Franklin D. Roosevelt earlier in February 1942. The order authorized the military to designate exclusion zones and remove individuals deemed security risks from certain areas of the country. In practice, it led to the forced relocation and incarceration of more than 110,000 Japanese Americans, most of whom were U.S. citizens. Families were removed from their homes, businesses were lost, and entire communities were dismantled. The government justified the policy as a matter of national security during World War II. Critics argued it was rooted in racial prejudice rather than military necessity.The constitutionality of the policy reached the Supreme Court in Korematsu v. United States. Fred Korematsu, a U.S. citizen, had refused to comply with the exclusion order and was convicted. In a 6–3 decision, the Court upheld his conviction, accepting the government's claim that the exclusion was justified by wartime necessity. The majority deferred heavily to the executive branch, emphasizing the perceived threat on the West Coast. In dissent, several justices warned that the decision validated racial discrimination under the guise of military urgency.Decades later, the ruling came to be widely regarded as a grave error. In 1988, Congress passed the Civil Liberties Act, formally apologizing and providing reparations to surviving internees. In 2018, the Supreme Court explicitly stated that Korematsu was wrongly decided, rejecting its reasoning even though it was not formally overturned in the technical sense. The episode remains a cautionary example of how constitutional protections can erode in times of crisis.The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear two cases concerning the scope of the Helms-Burton Act, a 1996 law that allows American companies to sue over property confiscated by Cuba after the 1959 revolution. One case involves ExxonMobil's effort to recover more than $1 billion for oil and gas assets seized by Cuba in 1960. Exxon sued a Cuban state-owned company in 2019, alleging it continues to profit from the confiscated property. A lower court ruled that the Cuban entities could claim foreign sovereign immunity, which generally protects foreign governments from being sued in U.S. courts. Exxon has asked the Supreme Court to reverse that decision.The second case involves four cruise operators—Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Line, and MSC Cruises—accused of unlawfully benefiting from docks in Havana that were originally built and operated by a U.S. company before being seized by Cuba. The docks were used between 2016 and 2019, after travel restrictions were eased under President Obama. A trial judge initially ruled against the cruise lines and awarded more than $100 million in damages, but an appeals court later dismissed the case, finding that the original concession had expired before the cruise lines used the property. The Supreme Court's decisions could clarify how broadly Congress intended the Helms-Burton Act to apply and whether claimants face significant legal barriers when seeking compensation.US Supreme Court to hear Exxon bid for compensation from Cuba | ReutersU.S. Customs and Border Protection announced that it will stop collecting tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) beginning just after midnight on Tuesday. The decision comes several days after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that those tariffs were unlawful. The agency said it would deactivate the tariff codes tied to President Donald Trump's IEEPA-related orders but did not explain why collections continued for days after the ruling. It also did not address whether importers who paid the duties would receive refunds.The suspension of the IEEPA tariffs coincides with the implementation of a new 15% global tariff introduced under a different statutory authority. Customs clarified that the halt applies only to the IEEPA-based tariffs and does not affect other trade measures, including those enacted under Section 232 for national security reasons or Section 301 for unfair trade practices. Economists have estimated that the now-invalidated IEEPA tariffs generated more than $175 billion in revenue and were bringing in over $500 million per day. As a result, the ruling potentially exposes the government to significant refund claims from importers.US to stop collecting tariffs deemed illegal by Supreme Court on Tuesday | ReutersJPMorgan Chase informed President Donald Trump and his hospitality company in February 2021 that it was closing their bank accounts, according to newly released documents tied to Trump's $5 billion lawsuit against the bank and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. The letters were sent about a month after the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. At the time, several businesses and organizations distanced themselves from Trump, including law firms and the PGA of America.In its February 19, 2021 letters, JPMorgan did not provide a detailed explanation for ending the relationship. The bank stated generally that it may determine a client's interests are no longer served by continuing with J.P. Morgan Private Bank. JPMorgan has previously argued that Trump's lawsuit lacks merit. Trump's legal team, however, claims the letters amount to an admission that the bank intentionally “de-banked” him and his businesses, allegedly causing major financial harm.Trump contends that JPMorgan violated its own policies and unfairly targeted him for political reasons. The newly disclosed letters were submitted as part of the bank's effort to transfer the case from federal court in Miami to New York, where JPMorgan argues the dispute is more closely connected.JPMorgan says it closed Trump's bank accounts a month after Jan. 6 attack | ReutersA federal judge in Florida declined to overturn a $243 million jury verdict against Tesla stemming from a fatal 2019 crash involving the company's Autopilot system. The court found that the evidence presented at trial sufficiently supported the jury's conclusion that Autopilot played a role in the collision, which killed 22-year-old Naibel Benavides Leon in Key Largo. The jury determined that both the driver and Tesla shared responsibility for the crash.Jurors originally awarded $59 million to Benavides' parents and $70 million to her boyfriend, Dillon Angulo, who was injured in the incident. After accounting for comparative fault, the compensatory damages were reduced to about $42.6 million, with the driver found 67% responsible and Tesla 33% responsible. The jury also imposed $200 million in punitive damages against the company.Tesla asked the court to set aside the verdict or grant a new trial, arguing that the damages were excessive and that its conduct did not meet Florida's legal threshold for punitive damages. The company also contended that state law limits punitive damages to three times the compensatory award. The judge rejected these arguments, stating that Tesla was largely repeating points already considered and dismissed during trial.At trial, plaintiffs argued that Autopilot was defective because it could be activated on roads it was not designed for and did not adequately ensure driver attention. They also claimed Tesla overstated the system's capabilities. The driver admitted he had looked away from the road moments before the crash.Tesla Can't Escape $243M Autopilot Crash Verdict - Law360 This is a public episode.

Of course, REDDIT, META, AND GOOGLE VOLUNTARILY GAVE DHS INFO on users critical of ICE, because why stand up for privacy when you can just comply?In the news, we look at OPENCLAW, OPENAI AND THE FUTURE as the project's founder joins the Borg, even though META AND OTHER TECH FIRMS PUT RESTRICTIONS ON USE OF OPENCLAW because it's basically a security hole that can click your mouse for you. Peak stupidity has arrived with RFK JR'S NEW CHATBOT giving rectal dietary advice, while AI COMPANIES BOUGHT OUT ALL OF WESTERN DIGITAL'S HARD DRIVES through 2026, meaning you can't have storage because the bots need it more. Even VALVE ADMITS STEAM DECK AVAILABILITY IS AFFECTED by this memory hoarding. We also touch on STEVE BANNON SUED OVER MAGA CRYPTO SCHEME, LOS ANGELES COUNTY FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST ROBLOX for being a safety nightmare, and the fact that TESLA ROBOTAXIS REPORTEDLY CRASHING at four times the human rate. TESLA DODGES 30-DAY SUSPENSION by simply killing the word "Autopilot," while NEW YORK HITS THE BRAKES ON ROBOTAXI EXPANSION to keep the chaos at bay. Finally, POLYMARKET WITHDRAWS EXPLOSIVE ARTEMIS BETTING MARKET because betting on dead astronauts is too much even for them, leading the ETHEREUM CREATOR STARTING TO THINK THIS WHOLE PREDICTION MARKET THING MIGHT BE GAMBLING. As NEVADA SUES KALSHI and Jack Dorsey oversees INSIDE THE ROLLING LAYOFFS AT JACK DORSEY'S BLOCK—using AI to summarize the misery of his employees—just remember: YOU'LL BE SORRY WHEN YOU HEAR WHAT JUSTIN BIEBER'S $1.3 MILLION BORED APE IS WORTH NOW. Hint: it's twelve grand.In this week's MEDIA CANDY, we've got FREE BERT, KAT WILLIAMS: THE LAST REPORT, and the eternal return of SHREK. We're checking out MARK ROBER on Netflix, the return of MONARCH: LEGACY OF MONSTERS, and the trailer for GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE. If you need a soundtrack for the apocalypse, Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq has you covered with STOP USING GENERATIVE A.I and the Gen-X anthem I'VE NO MORE F*S TO GIVE!.Moving to APPS & DOODADS, OBSIDIAN TO NOTES is a $14 well spent, unlike CURSOR and VISUAL STUDIO CODE which are getting bogged down by slow models. APPLE'S AI PENDANT sounds like a watered-down Humane pin that relies on your phone to think, and APPLE PODCASTS AND VIDEO remains a pipe dream because bandwidth costs money. We've reached the point where THERE'S A GRIM NEW EXPRESSION: “AI;DR” for things not worth reading, and THERE'S A NEW TERM FOR WORKERS FREAKING OUT over being replaced—AIRD, or AI Replacement Dysfunction—which is basically the low-grade panic of being made obsolete by a machine that thinks bananas go in your bum.AT THE LIBRARY, we're thumbing through CLEAVE THE SPARROW, THE REGICIDE REPORT by Charles Stross, and Robin Ince being NORMALLY WEIRD AND WEIRDLY NORMAL.Then we descend into THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, where the Muppets are taking over with THE MUPPET SHOW and MUPPETS NOW. We catch the latest on THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU and TOY STORY 5, while tracking the PENTAGON PIZZA INDEX to see if war is breaking out. For the kids, we look at a 3D PRINTER / ENTRY LEVEL FOR KIDS like the Bambu Lab A1, and for the nerds, A STAR WARS-CENTRIC RSS FEED and a NEAT IDEA FOR AN RSS READER, “CURRENT,” which lets news drift away like water under a bridge. We wrap it all up with some HORROR IN UNDER TWO MINUTES and IMPECCABLE COVERS OF 80S SYNTH MUSIC, because at least the 80s had better soundtracks than this AI-generated nightmare.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

School leadership isn't getting simpler. It's getting louder, faster, and far more complex: surprise challenges, constant interruptions, a to-do list that multiplies by the hour. This week on LinkedUp, we're joined by educator, speaker, and author Rich Czyz to talk about his new book, Autopilot, and what it really takes to lead without burning out.Rich makes the case for “going on autopilot,” not by checking out but by building smart systems that protect your time, sharpen your focus, and help you operate at your highest level. We dig into practical strategies for transforming your inbox, tightening up workflows, minimizing stress, and creating the kind of structure that allows leaders to think strategically instead of constantly reacting. If you have ever felt stuck in inefficiency, overwhelmed by distractions, or stretched thin trying to do it all, this conversation gives you permission to rethink how you work.---ABOUT OUR GUESTRich Czyz started his educational career in 2003 as a fifth-grade teacher. As an administrator, he first served as a curriculum supervisor and director of curriculum, where he learned that sometimes challenging the status quo is really the only way to do things. Rich currently serves as a Principal in New Jersey, where he enjoys participating in kickball games with students. Rich is the co-founder of the Four O'Clock Faculty blog for educators looking to improve instruction and learning for themselves and their students. Rich is passionate about engaging all stakeholders in meaningful and relevant learning. He is an author, blogger, and presenter.---SUBSCRIBE TO THE SERIES: YouTube | Spotify | Apple Podcasts | YouTube Music | OvercastFOLLOW US: Website | Facebook | Twitter | LinkedInPOWERED BY CLASSLINK: ClassLink provides one-click single sign-on into web and Windows applications, and instant access to files at school and in the cloud.

Once again, FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr and his bad ideas about free speech have rankled a late night host. And once again, Nilay and David talk through what the equal-time rule actually means, why organizations keep caving, and why it's apparently up to people like Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel to fight back. After that, the hosts discuss the facial recognition feature Meta hopes to launch for its smart glasses, plus the gadgets we're likely to see Apple launch in the couple of weeks. In the lightning round, we get some bleak news on Tesla's self-driving skills, a robovac security disaster, and the future of Warner Bros.

Get on the waitlist here now because this week, everyone on the waitlist is getting early access with a 50% discount! https://go.womensmeditationnetwork.com/waitlist Now...here's a story for you... “I was talking to my favorite uncle this past weekend,” my friend said. She was telling me a story about how she had gone to the East Coast of Florida to visit her family. She's from there and loves it. She wants to move back there, but there are a lot of “practical” things keeping her on the West Coast. “I told him that I just have 5 more years of my job before I can slow things down and maybe move back there and spend time with him,” she continued. I knew she and her 85 uncle were close. And when she told me what he said next, I could feel the weight in her heart. “I may not be here by then,” her uncle said with sadness. I saw her eyes tear up as her brain tried to make sense of it all. “That really hit me hard, Katie,” she said. “Have I just been living on Autopilot for all these years?” What does Living on Autopilot look like? Living on Autopilot means you're just kinda coasting through life. You're showing up and doing what you “should” do, or continuing to do life in a certain way because that's how you've always done it, or that's how it “should” be done, or that's how everyone else does it. We're told that this way of living is “safe” and “conventional” and even “normal.” We keep showing up to the job that doesn't fulfill us… We keep eating the same foods that don't nourish us… We tote our kids around to all the activities because we're supposed to… We slowly forget about our big dreams because they're not practical… And we fall into the habit of living a “good enough” life that's run on autopilot. The Scariest Part About Living on Autopilot The scariest part about living on Autopilot is not realizing that we are living on autopilot until it's too late. Well, technically, it's never too late, but you get my point. Autopilot living eats up our precious time here. And isn't the point to actually live our lives? How Do I Know If I'm Living My Life on Autopilot? Are you deeply in love with your life? Are you excited for the days ahead? Do you feel a sense of fulfillment and joy? If you answered yes, then congratulations! You are living an intentional life, building it brick by brick! It's a hard job, but a worthwhile one. :) If you answered no to any of these questions…then maybe it's worth considering that some parts of your life are on autopilot right now. How Do I Get Out of Autopilot Mode? Self-Awareness. Meditation is a free, simple tool to use to practice listening to your intuition. And your intuition will help you identify what feels off, unfulfilled or hungry for change. Try this guided meditation right now…just press play and let me do the guiding. ;) Living an Intentional Life Once you start unraveling the areas of your life that are on autopilot, you'll be free to create each piece of your life with intention. And this is where meditation can be used seamlessly in your life to help you stay deeply connected to yourself as you navigate your life every single day! If you want to learn a bit more about how powerful meditation can be to get you out of an autopilot life and into creating a life from intention, then get on the waitlist for the Meditate to Magic course…there are lots of goodies and deals that those on the waitlist are getting this week!

She was telling me a story about how she had gone to the East Coast of Florida to visit her family. She's from there and loves it. She wants to move back there, but there are a lot of “practical” things keeping her on the West Coast. “I told him that I just have 5 more years of my job before I can slow things down and maybe move back there and spend time with him,” she continued. I knew she and her 85 uncle were close. And when she told me what he said next, I could feel the weight in her heart. “I may not be here by then,” her uncle said with sadness. I saw her eyes tear up as her brain tried to make sense of it all. “That really hit me hard, Katie,” she said. “Have I just been living on Autopilot for all these years?” What does Living on Autopilot look like? Living on Autopilot means you're just kinda coasting through life. You're showing up and doing what you “should” do, or continuing to do life in a certain way because that's how you've always done it, or that's how it “should” be done, or that's how everyone else does it. We're told that this way of living is “safe” and “conventional” and even “normal.” We keep showing up to the job that doesn't fulfill us… We keep eating the same foods that don't nourish us… We tote our kids around to all the activities because we're supposed to… We slowly forget about our big dreams because they're not practical… And we fall into the habit of living a “good enough” life that's run on autopilot. The Scariest Part About Living on Autopilot The scariest part about living on Autopilot is not realizing that we are living on autopilot until it's too late. Well, technically, it's never too late, but you get my point. Autopilot living eats up our precious time here. And isn't the point to actually live our lives? How Do I Know If I'm Living My Life on Autopilot? Are you deeply in love with your life? Are you excited for the days ahead? Do you feel a sense of fulfillment and joy? If you answered yes, then congratulations! You are living an intentional life, building it brick by brick! It's a hard job, but a worthwhile one. :) If you answered no to any of these questions…then maybe it's worth considering that some parts of your life are on autopilot right now. How Do I Get Out of Autopilot Mode? Self-Awareness. Meditation is a free, simple tool to use to practice listening to your intuition. And your intuition will help you identify what feels off, unfulfilled or hungry for change. Try this guided meditation right now…just press play and let me do the guiding. ;) Living an Intentional Life Once you start unraveling the areas of your life that are on autopilot, you'll be free to create each piece of your life with intention. And this is where meditation can be used seamlessly in your life to help you stay deeply connected to yourself as you navigate your life every single day!

SaaStr 842: The 90/10 Rule for AI Agents: What to Build vs Buy with SaaStr's CEO and CAIO SaaStr's Chief AI Officer, Amelia Lerutte, and SaaStr CEO & Founder Jason Lemkin break down SaaStr's evolving 90/10 rule for AI agents and apps: buy 90% off the shelf, build the 10% you can't find. In this episode, they walk through two recently built tools: an internal AI VP of Marketing and an external-facing customer portal, and share the real trade-offs of deploying vibe coding apps into production. Topics covered: Why we replaced a paid SaaS tool with a vibe-coded app (and what pushed us over the edge) How Claude Cowork changed the game for building more complex apps The role of writing a spec before vibe coding Tackling single sign-on as a non-engineer How we used Cowork to process 150+ customer contracts in hours instead of days Lovable's data on what people are actually vibe coding Maintenance costs and the hidden time suck of custom apps Why zero AI in your product should scare you The "jaw drop" test for SaaS products in 2026 -------------------------------------- Tools & resources mentioned: Replit, Claude Cowork, Clerk, Lovable, Zapier, Salesforce, Monaco
