Podcasts about Bad Decisions

The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk Go to www.LearningLeader.com This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. www.InsightGlobal.com/LearningLeader My guest: Tom Hardin was known as "Tipper X" during Operation Perfect Hedge, the largest insider trading investigation in history. After making four illegal trades based on inside information, the FBI approached him on a Manhattan street corner and convinced him to wear a wire over 40 times, helping build 20 of the 81 cases. Key Learnings  Ambiguity is where ethical lines blur. Tom's boss said, "Do whatever it takes," after the hedge fund lost money, and as a junior employee, Tom didn't ask clarifying questions. The undiscussable becomes undiscussable. Leaders give ambiguous messages, then pretend they weren't ambiguous, employees get confused and don't question the boss, and you end up with a culture of silence. Making decisions in isolation is dangerous. The information came to Tom and he didn't talk to his boss or his wife (who probably would've slapped him around for crossing ethical lines). Psychological safety requires muscle memory. You have to practice saying "I'm just going to ask some clarifying questions here" when your boss gives ambiguous orders. Bad decisions aren't mistakes. Mistakes are made without intent, but bad decisions are made with intent. Tom told himself for years he made "mistakes," but on a drive home from speaking at a keynote, he realized: "There's no way I made mistakes. I made bad decisions." Never say never. Tom argues you're more susceptible to falling down your own slippery slope when you think "that would never be me." 80% of employees can be swayed either way. 10% are morally incorruptible, 10% are a compliance nightmare, and 80% can be influenced by the culture around them. Tone at the top means nothing. Company culture isn't the tone at the top or glossy shareholder letters; it's the behaviors employees believe will be rewarded or put them ahead. Reward character, not just results. You can't just focus on short-term performance and dollar goals without understanding how the business was made and what was behind the performance. The question isn't "what?" but "how?" If you're just focused on the numbers and not on how you got there, you have the opportunity to end up in a slippery slope situation. Celebrate people who live your values. Companies that spend millions on trips for people who live out shared values (not financial performance) are putting their money where their mouth is. Leaders must share their own ethical dilemmas. We've all been in situations where we could go left or right, and sharing how you worked through those moments makes you more endearing and a better leader. Keep a rationalization journal. When Tom and his wife have big decisions (or even little things), he writes them down in a rationalization journal and reflects on them once a month. He's still susceptible to going down another slippery slope, so checking himself on those passing thoughts improves his character over time. It's not what you say, it's what you do. Just like kids see what parents do (not what they say), employees see what behaviors leaders actually reward. $46,000 cost him $23 million. A business school professor calculated Tom would've made $23 million if he'd stayed on the hedge fund path, but he made $46,000 on the four illegal trades before getting caught. His wife was his rock. 85% of marriages end when something like this happens, and she had every right to leave. They just got married, no kids yet. But she stayed. When Tom interviewed her for the book 20 years later, she said, "All I remember is you accepted responsibility immediately. You didn't make up excuses." Running pulled him out of a shame spiral. Tom got obese as a stay-at-home dad. His wife signed him up for a 5K race (and beat him while pushing a jogging stroller). Just crossing that finish line lit a fire. He ended up running a 100-mile race.  Doing hard things teaches you that you can do hard things. When Tom had to start a speaking business because they were running out of money, he said, "I can do this" because he'd already put his body through ultramarathons. No challenge is insurmountable. He ended up with something better. It's not about status or money anymore; it's about who he is with his family and his relationships now. Windshield mentality, not rearview mirror. Tom can't change the past, but he can look forward instead of backward. A lot of people in their twenties do stupid stuff (maybe not to this degree), but now, in his forties, he can learn from it. Why not embrace it rather than try to scrub it off the internet? Eulogy virtues versus resume virtues. In his twenties, Tom only thought about resume virtues (how much money, the next job, the next stepping stone) and never about eulogy virtues (what people will say about his character when it's all over). What will people say at your eulogy? Will they still be talking about those four trades, or will they talk about who you became after? More Learning #226 - Steve Wojciechowski: How to Win Every Day #281 - George Raveling: Wisdom from MLK Jr to Michael Jordan #637 - Tom Ryan: Chosen Suffering: Become Elite in Life & Leadership Reflection Questions Tom's boss gave him an ambiguous message ("do whatever it takes"), and as a junior employee, he didn't ask clarifying questions. Think about the last ambiguous instruction you received from leadership. Did you ask clarifying questions, or did you fill in the blanks yourself? What's stopping you from creating psychological safety to ask next time? Tom argues that 80% of employees can be swayed either way by culture. Look at your organization right now. What behaviors are actually being rewarded? If someone asked your team "what gets you ahead here?" what would they honestly say? Tom asks: "Will people be talking about the resume virtues (money, titles, achievements) or the eulogy virtues (character, relationships, who you were) when you're gone?" What's one eulogy virtue you need to start prioritizing today, even if it means slowing down on resume building?

Liam, Sydnie, and Sarah chat all about having attended NEKO (North East Keyforge Open) in Gap, PA last weekend. This volunteer run Keyforge tournament was larger than some 2025 Vault Tours, and certainly contained just as much fun and excitement! How did they fare in the main event? What new and exciting side events caught their eyes? What was the prizing like?

Before you blame yourself for that last bad decision, consider this: what if it wasn't a character flaw, but a design flaw in your hardware? This episode dives deep into the science of why humans make predictably irrational choices. We explore five critical pillars that govern our decisions: from the biological constraints of sleep, stress, and blood sugar, to the psychological traps of present bias and choice overload, the pervasive influence of social reinforcement, and the powerful impact of behavioral economics like the sunk cost fallacy. Topics discussed: - Bad decisions- Five pillars of decision-making- Biological constraints- Behavioral economics- Psychological glitches- Social & cultural reinforcement- Systems & environmental design- Designing environments for effortless good choices---------- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Live Program for Coaches: The Functional Nutrition and Metabolism Specialization ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.metabolismschool.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- [Free] Metabolism School 101: The Video Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.metabolismschool.com/metabolism-101⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------Subscribe to My Youtube Channel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@sammillerscience?si=s1jcR6Im4GDHbw_1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab a Copy of My New Book - Metabolism Made Simple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- Stay Connected: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: SamMillerScience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: The Nutrition Coaching Collaborative Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: @sammillers⁠⁠cience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------“This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

The repetition of unhealthy patterns doesn't mean we're not learning from our mistakes. It just means we haven't learned to self-regulate in the face of unmet needs. It means the weight of our unmet needs outweighs the memory of the consequences of all our previous mistakes and setbacks. Until the need if met or we learn to self regulate, we will remain stuck in the cycle of dysfunction.

This conversation goes beyond ideas — it's about living wisely when life feels anything but quiet.You'll learn:How to treat wisdom as a practice, not an identityWhy wisdom demands both courage and humilityThe key to raising thoughtful kids in a noisy worldHow to find calm and clarity in times of distraction and divisionWhy discernment is the superpower for the age of AI and misinformation__________________________________________________Links & ResourcesSubscribe to our Youtube Channel for more conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and wellbeing: https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMasteryGet exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors!

In this episode of We Chat Divorce, Karen Chellew, Legal Liaison, and Catherine Shanahan, CDFA®, sit down with Jody Bruns, founder of the Certified Divorce Lending Professional (CDLP®) certification and the creator of the divorce mortgage planning profession. The conversation focuses on one of the most expensive and misunderstood parts of divorce: the marital home and the mortgage attached to it. With interest rates, refinancing challenges, and equity decisions shaping modern divorce settlements, this episode breaks down why housing decisions made without preparation often lead to permanent financial consequences. In This Episode, We Cover Why you cannot simply remove a spouse from a mortgage after divorce The difference between a traditional mortgage lender and a Certified Divorce Lending Professional (CDLP®) How refinancing really works — including escrow accounts, taxes, insurance, and closing costs Why alimony and child support payment structure matters for mortgage approval What lenders require to use support income for qualification The financial risks of keeping the house versus selling it How capital gains taxes and filing status changes impact long-term equity Why mortgage assumptions are complex, limited, and not guaranteed The dangers of quitclaim deeds and poorly written settlement language How title changes after divorce can expose homeowners to liens, probate issues, and loss of control Key Takeaway You may want to keep the house. You may even be able to afford it. That does not mean you can qualify to keep it — or that it's the smartest financial decision. Without coordinated legal, financial, and mortgage planning, housing decisions in divorce often become the most costly mistakes people make. About Our Guest Jody Bruns has over 35 years of experience in mortgage and finance and is nationally recognized for her work at the intersection of divorce, real estate, and lending. Through her certification program and professional training, she helps divorcing homeowners and divorce professionals navigate housing decisions with clarity and strategy.

 As Iran's internet blackout is lifted, staggering details emerge about the slaughter of innocent Iranians that left hospital staff shell shocked. More than 30,000 protesters have reportedly been executed - some while undergoing SURGERY - by the Iranian regime. What are liberals protesting in Minneapolis? The removal of criminals who want to harm us. New polling suggests a majority of registered voters are for law and order and against violent protest - 80/20.

Ron from Daring Ones stops by for a long, laid-back conversation that starts exactly where you'd expect and ends up everywhere else. We get into drifting, Raceway Park, and what it actually takes to keep a car reliable for a full season, but not before bouncing through scary movies, Fast & Furious nostalgia, ghost stories, and plenty of off-topic shop banter. Ron breaks down his mindset on keeping things simple, focusing on seat time over constant upgrades, and why having a spare motor in the wings just makes sense. It's one of those episodes that feels like hanging out in the shop late at night, where serious drift talk slowly blends into random stories and movie debates.@rontothehillsCheck out our Sponsors!AG1:Check out our AG1 affiliate link:⁠https://shop.drinkag1.com/FACTION⁠You will receive a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler, plus a bottle of Vitamin D3+K2 with your AG1 Welcome Kit, when you first subscribe (a $72 value!).⁠⁨@drinkAG1⁩ ⁠ #ag1partnerEAST COAST DRIFT SCHOOL:@eastcoastdriftschoolCHASE BAYS:@chasebayshttps://www.chasebays.com/COUPON CODE:chasebaysafterhoursLIMITLESS AUTO FAB:@limitless_auto_fabhttps://limitlessautofab.com/RAMSTEAD MFG:https://ramsteadmfg.com/We have a Patreon!

Shiur given by Rabbi Benzion Brodie on Parsha to Yeshiva Ketana. Shiur recorded in Yeshivas Ohr Reuven, Monsey, NY.

The holidays are over, the budget is budgeting, and dating looks different now. On this episode of Chocolate Chip & Sip, Stormy Pea talks inexpensive date ideas that still require effort, how letting go of old attachments creates space for what's actually meant for you, why marrying later can be a win,   why oversharing online isn't healing.

In this episode, we explore why New Year's resolutions often fail and argue that the problem isn't motivation, it's weak decision-making frameworks that collapse under stress. We share a simpler approach to health and life by focusing on making fewer bad decisions through clear guardrails, rather than chasing perfection or piling on tasks. Using our three principles of vitality, we explain how trusting the body's design, recognizing devitalization, and filtering interventions through revitalization can lead to more clarity, less chaos, and real freedom for individuals and families.

Most bad decisions aren't made by bad leaders.They're made under pressure.In this episode of Inside the Deal, we look at why smart, capable leaders still make poor decisions when time is tight, information is incomplete, and responsibility is heavy.This isn't a motivational talk or a theory lesson. It's a practical conversation about how pressure changes judgment — and how to slow things down just enough to decide better.If you're leading, supporting a leader, or carrying real responsibility, this episode is for you.

Decisions go better when you ask the Creator first.

Send us a textGrief can make smart people do dangerous things—and in Bring Her Back, that grief becomes a weapon. We dive headfirst into the film's guts: a foster mother trying to rebuild her daughter from borrowed parts, a cursed VHS that promises resurrection, and a house rigged with ritual rules that punish hesitation. From the opening red flags to the final breath, we map where survival was still possible and where the choices slammed shut.We unpack the lore behind the “Tari Resurrection Tapes,” the unsettling ARG-style website, and the ritual's structure—host, victim, consumption, regurgitation—that explains the voice mimicry and the compulsion to reenact death. Along the way, we call out the manipulations that feel uncomfortably real: forced intimacy (“You can call me mom”), public shaming to isolate Andy, and the classic abuser move of splitting siblings. The horror hits hard, but the psychology hits harder. If a monster can sound like your brother, who do you trust when the house smells like copper and the rules keep shifting?This conversation isn't just vibes and jump scares. We bring practical survival tools into the frame: when to call for medical help even when you're told not to, how to handle seizures without panic, why hero fantasies fail against heat and smoke, and what legal self-defense looks like for a minor. We also interrogate the ending: does the ritual demand a life no matter what, and did Laura pay it? More importantly, how could Andy have turned the tide—documenting evidence, refusing isolation, and anchoring Piper to nonvisual cues she could verify?If you're here for smart horror talk with real-world takeaways, you're in the right place. Tap play, then tell us where you would have drawn the line—and whether you'd have made it out. If this breakdown grabbed you, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review so more horror fans can find us.

You may know Nicole C. Mullen as an incredible singer-songwriter, but did you know she's also a certified Bible nerd? That's right! And she not only knows the Word, but she can teach it too, bringing it to life in a powerful, practical way. So today on the 4:13, Nicole takes us into Scripture to remind us that it's never wrong to do the right thing—even when it's difficult or costly. Because, let's be honest, none of us are perfect, and we don't always make the wisest choices. But no matter what decisions you've made or the consequences you face, God can redeem your past and move you from regret to renewal. As Nicole walks us through the Word and opens up about some of her own not-so-great decisions, you'll be encouraged, challenged, and reminded that hope is never off the table!

How well do you know your future self?How much do you like yout future self?The answer to these two questions has implications for how you plan and provide for that person.Today, we cover the work of Hal Hershfield and others about how well or poorly we identify with Future Us, and what it means for how short- or far-sighted we are in our decision-making.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-history-of-being-human--5806452/support.

This week we dive headfirst into insurance loopholes, non-binary pricing madness, and the questionable economics of identity — before things spiral hard into listener-submitted chaos.We've got:A boat launch gone violently wrong at the Noosa barA spud gun incident that nearly ends a blokeOne of the most cooked “I shit myself” yarns we've ever heardCampfire disasters, stubby missiles, and poor life choices all roundAs always, it's raw, unfiltered, and absolutely not advice. Good choices are boring — this is Proper True Yarn.

How do you know if something is actually good for you? Why do we keep making decisions that hurt us, even when we know better? In this teaching, we explore Proverbs 27:7 and Psalm 23:3 to uncover a powerful biblical truth about decision-making and spiritual hunger.The Bible reveals that when your soul is satisfied by God, unhealthy choices lose their appeal. But when your soul is hungry, even bitter things can seem sweet.

How does unresolved grief shape the choices we make—and the people we become? In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Aviva Lauer explore Parshat Vayeishev through the lens of grief and the ways unresolved pain shapes Yaakov's choices. They examine how the Torah's seemingly hopeful opening—vayeishev, “he settled”—quickly gives way to family tension, favoritism, and disaster. Reading Yaakov as a father still mourning Rachel, struggling after Dina's trauma, and missing the women who once guided him, they show how grief clouds judgment and fractures a fragile family system.

How to make smarter decisions that improve your life by understanding your mind and it's hidden psychology. We are all storytelling creatures, desperate to fit the world into a narrative that makes sense to us. Thus, we build echo chambers not because we are stupid, but because we are afraid. The Confirmation Bias is a shield against the discomfort of being wrong. The Availability Bias shapes our worldview based on the loudest stories, not the most important facts. This episode reviews 7 cognitive biases the explore the friction between what is comfortable and what is true. Learning helps us build tools for the art of long-term thinking in a short-term world. Audit your inputs: Step outside your algorithmic feed to find the friction of opposing views. Reframe the risk: Turn "Black Swan" surprises into "White Swan" predictions by analyzing the unsexy data. Choose commitment: Overcome the paralysis of infinite choice by making a "good enough" decision and sticking to it. Go make a ruckus by choosing to think clearly today. SPONSORS
