In this episode, we dive into problematic life insurance schemes that have led to lawsuits. We examine how premium financing - originally designed for high net worth individuals seeking death benefits - was repurposed as a risky retirement strategy for people who didn't need it. You'll learn about a recent lawsuit involving complex tax schemes paired with premium financing that left clients with massive loan balances, inadequate collateral, and IRS penalties. We break down the warning signs of these overly complicated arrangements and why they often fall apart when interest rates rise. We share our firsthand experiences with clients who pursued these strategies despite our advice and later regretted it. You'll understand why simpler approaches to life insurance usually produce better results without the legal and financial risks of elaborate tax schemes. ____________________________ Have questions about your life insurance options? Contact us today to discuss straightforward strategies that actually work. We'll help you navigate life insurance without the complicated schemes or hidden risks.

This week, we’re celebrating the show’s 15th anniversary (which was last year, but never mind about that part). Over those 15+ years, we’ve done something north of 3,000 shows. And every one of those shows was intended, more or less, to be about some … thing. Towels or Trump or toast or television or whatever. This hour we do the opposite thing: a show not about a specific something — tapirs. Note: This show features Chion Wolf’s performance of “Let’s Not Talk About Tapirs,” with lyrics by Colin McEnroe and music by Chion Wolf. Also note: We’re idiots. Don’t let the fact that we’re idiots prevent you from finding tapirs as fascinating as we actually do. If you’re able, you might consider supporting the Tapir Specialist Group, which conserves “biological diversity by stimulating, developing, and executing practical programs to study, save, restore, and manage the four species of tapir and their remaining habitats in Central and South America and Southeast Asia.” GUESTS: Carmen Baskauf: Former producer for Where We Live on Connecticut Public Kimberly Hyde: A keeper at the San Diego Zoo; she handles the zoo’s tapirs in its Elephant Odyssey habitat Betsy Kaplan: Senior producer emeritus of The Colin McEnroe Show Jonathan McNicol: The producer of this very episode of The Colin McEnroe Show Carlos Mejia: Former digital producer at Connecticut Public Mike Pesca: Hosts the independent daily podcast The Gist Josh Nilaya: Former producer for The Colin McEnroe Show Susan Piver: Meditation teacher, speaker, and long-time Buddhist practitioner Patrick Skahill: Connecticut Public’s digital editor; producer emeritus of The Colin McEnroe Show The Colin McEnroe Show is available as a podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, TuneIn, Listen Notes, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Nancy Reddy, an award-winning writer and professor, shares a few key insights from "The Good Mother Myth."

Episode Summary. One of the great truths of life is that one's mental perspective determines one's attitude. Eve believed the lie that God's command not to eat the fruit was selfish and that God was keeping something to be desired—the knowledge of good and evil—from her. That perspective led to the attitude of rebellion which led to the action of sin. This episode seeks to better understand how wrong thinking leads to wrong attitudes, which is why we need to protect the rising generation from the destructive ideas invading their lives.For Further Prayerful Thought:What examples most stood out to you about the way our mental perspective determines our attitude?Of the eight ideologies identified and evaluated through a biblical lens, which ones do you see most clearly in the culture? Which ones do you think are most deceiving teenagers?What are the evil parallels between Marxism and cultural Marxism? Why do you think that otherwise mature Christians who are calling the church back to a concern for social justice are falling into some of its evil tenets? Link to Leadership DiagramLink to ResourcesA Practical Guide to Culture, Stonestreet and KunkleThe Secular Creed, Rebecca McLaughlinFive Lies of Our Anti-Christian Age, Rosaria ButterfieldMamma Bear Apologetics, Hillary FerrerFor the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men's issues click here.To make an online contribution to enable others to hear about the podcast: (Click link and scroll down to bottom left)

Propaganda. Bad Drawings. Bad Ideas.

Dean says to free your mind when remodeling your home to help gain more creativity. Dean talks retrofitting an attic with fire& ember protective vents, how to remove gray spots/mold on a vinyl tub wall, advice on a chipping living room ceiling, Dean talks about replacing a mirrored-closet door, installing a sliding door in a mobile home, and marrying two different materials for countertops. Dean believes that there are no bad ideas, just decisions... the thinking and planning needs to be expanded to be able to get inspired  

With remodeling season quickly approaching, Dean explains the sandbox portion of his and Tina's method when evaluating a home project. Dean talks about structured homes, working with the type of home you live in and creating your dream home the way you'd like it. Dean says ideas are not decisions. And how ideas should be rolling in always. Lastly, Dean talks about sealing a toilet tank that leaks.

Author of multiple books including The Parasitic Mind, Dr. Gad Saad draws from his groundbreaking research and lived experience and explains how certain ideas can parasitise our minds and shape our behaviour. His blend of scientific knowledge and honesty challenges us all to examine our thought patterns and societal assumptions while offering practical strategies for maintaining clear thinking in an increasingly complex world. Gad Saad REVEALS: His concept of "suicidal empathy" Why our natural capacity for compassion can become pathologically self-destructive The revolutionary framework of "parasitic ideas," demonstrating how certain thought patterns can hijack our cognitive systems The role of high expectations in achievement, using his own family's approach to education to illustrate how cultural values shape success patterns across generations His analysis of institutional resilience explains why certain academic disciplines maintain stronger connections to reality Why the tendency to internalise success and externalise failure influences both personal development and societal prejudices. How to distinguish authentic conviction from surface-level virtue signalling BEST MOMENTS "The biggest threat to freedom of speech short of you living in North Korea or under ISIS, is not the institutional obstacles to freedom of speech, but the self inflicted restrictions." "I never modulate a millimetre of what my heart and mind tells me to say, for better or worse, because based on my own code of personal conduct, if I modulate that, then I feel that I'm being fraudulent." "Don't pursue happiness wilfully, rather pursue life with honesty, dignity, and authenticity and the downstream effects as you'll wake up and you say ‘life is good’." "Be a honey badger.

Today on the show we're talking about a fascinating topic — how to unlearn the idea of being a so-called “good mom.” We're chatting today with Nancy Reddy, author of The Good Mother Myth: Unlearning Our Bad Ideas About How to Be a Good Mom, which comes out January 21 and helps us unwind, as the title suggests, “the good mother myth” and myths we've been told over the years about what it means to be quote-unquote “good” in the mom department. In this book, Nancy presents so much science-backed advice when it comes to parenting; in today's episode we talk about whether she sees parenting as an art, a science, or a little bit of both; so-called “mom guilt” and why it's so pervasive; why “the good mother myth” is wrong, but seductive nonetheless; how suffocating expectations put on mothers can be, and how it makes mothers feel like they're not good enough (which is a fallacy); how so many ideas of motherhood are antiquated and no longer serve us; and so much more. In addition to The Good Mother Myth, Nancy also wrote the poetry collections Pocket Universe and Double Jinx, which was a winner of the National Poetry Series, and alongside Emily Pérez, Nancy is the co-editor of The Long Devotion: Poets Writing Motherhood. Nancy's essays have appeared everywhere from Slate to Romper, Poets & Writers, The Millions, and elsewhere, and in addition to teaching writing at Stockton University, she writes the newsletter “Write More, Be Less Careful.” Take a listen to our really compelling conversation.

Timely and thought-provoking, Nancy Reddy's The Good Mother Myth: Unlearning Our Bad Ideas About How to Be a Good Mom unpacks and debunks the bad ideas that have for too long defined what it means to be a "good" mom. When Nancy Reddy had her first child, she found herself suddenly confronted with the ideal of a perfect mother—a woman who was constantly available, endlessly patient, and immediately invested in her child to the exclusion of all else. Reddy had been raised by a single working mother, considered herself a feminist, and was well on her way to a PhD. Why did doing motherhood "right" feel so wrong?  For answers, Reddy turned to the mid-20th century social scientists and psychologists whose work still forms the basis of so much of what we believe about parenting. It seems ludicrous to imagine modern moms taking advice from midcentury researchers. Yet, their bad ideas about so-called “good” motherhood have seeped so pervasively into our cultural norms. In The Good Mother Myth, Reddy debunks the flawed lab studies, sloppy research, and straightforward misogyny of researchers from Harry Harlow, who claimed to have discovered love by observing monkeys in his lab, to the famous Dr. Spock, whose bestselling parenting guide included just one (1!) illustration of a father interacting with his child. This timely and thought-provoking book will make you laugh, cry, and want to scream (sometimes all at once). Blending history of science, cultural criticism, and memoir, The Good Mother Myth pulls back the curtain on the flawed social science behind our contemporary understanding of what makes a good mom. This interview was conducted by Dr. Shui-yin Sharon Yam, author of the new book Doing Gender Justice: Queering Reproduction, Kin, and Care (Johns Hopkins University Press).  Learn more about your ad choices.

Blending history of science, cultural criticism, and memoir, The Good Mother Myth pulls back the curtain on the flawed social science behind our contemporary understanding of what makes a good mom. This interview was conducted by Dr. Shui-yin Sharon Yam, author of the new book Doing Gender Justice: Queering Reproduction, Kin, and Care (Johns Hopkins University Press).  Learn more about your ad choices.

Timely and thought-provoking, Nancy Reddy's The Good Mother Myth: Unlearning Our Bad Ideas About How to Be a Good Mom unpacks and debunks the bad ideas that have for too long defined what it means to be a "good" mom. When Nancy Reddy had her first child, she found herself suddenly confronted with the ideal of a perfect mother—a woman who was constantly available, endlessly patient, and immediately invested in her child to the exclusion of all else. Reddy had been raised by a single working mother, considered herself a feminist, and was well on her way to a PhD. Why did doing motherhood "right" feel so wrong?  For answers, Reddy turned to the mid-20th century social scientists and psychologists whose work still forms the basis of so much of what we believe about parenting. It seems ludicrous to imagine modern moms taking advice from midcentury researchers. Yet, their bad ideas about so-called “good” motherhood have seeped so pervasively into our cultural norms. In The Good Mother Myth, Reddy debunks the flawed lab studies, sloppy research, and straightforward misogyny of researchers from Harry Harlow, who claimed to have discovered love by observing monkeys in his lab, to the famous Dr. Spock, whose bestselling parenting guide included just one (1!) illustration of a father interacting with his child.

To finish this series of bad ideas, David tries to persuade Gary Gerstle of the futility of televised leadership debates. From Nixon vs Kennedy to Harris vs Trump, do the voters really learn anything from these supposed exchanges of ideas? Are they ever much more than a competition to avoid gaffes? And what did British politics gain when it introduced prime ministerial election debates (apart from a brief attack of Cleggmania)?

For our penultimate bad idea in this series, David talks to Robert Saunders about what's gone wrong with British politics since party members got to decide who leads the party – and in some cases who gets to be prime minister. Is the problem the principle of the thing or the people who end up in charge (Corbyn, Truss)? How did reforms undertaken in the name of democracy manage to undermine democracy? And what are the alternatives?

Today's bad idea is a theory of the universe: David talks to astrophysicist Chris Lintott about Steady State Theory, the rival cosmological model to the Big Bang, which held its own for a while in the 1940s and 1950s but turned out to be unsustainable. Why did its best-known champion Fred Hoyle have so much faith in it? What did it expose about the limitations of Big Bang theory? And what does it reveal about scientific hubris and human weakness in the face of the unknown?

Today's bad idea concerns history itself: David talks to world historian Ayse Zarakol about the temptations and the pitfalls of the idea of The End of History. Francis Fukuyama popularised the phrase in 1989 at the end of the Cold War. What did his vision of the triumph of liberal democracy miss? Was it a Western fantasy or a modern fantasy or both? How has history exacted its revenge? And if history doesn't end, does it repeat?

For today's bad idea David talks to political philosopher Alan Finlayson about what goes wrong when politicians get their hands on the concept of modernisation.

Today's bad idea is about how ideas get adopted, argued over and rejected: David talks to political philosopher Alan Finlayson about what's wrong with seeing this as a competitive marketplace. From St. Paul to Citizens United, from John Stuart Mill to Jordan Peterson, what happens when ideas get turned into commodities? Who wins and who loses? And what is an ‘ideological entrepreneur'?

To kick off our new series on the history of bad ideas David talks to historian Sophie Scott-Brown about the idea of ‘the silent majority', beloved by American presidents from Nixon to Trump.
