Go check out our FREE Skool community, it's got amazing tools in there and a thriving community of cyclists - https://www.skool.com/roadman/aboutCycling was never meant to be about looking expensive. The real entry ticket was willingness: to learn, to listen, to hold a wheel without panic, to respect the rhythm of the group. Somewhere along the way, the gate shifted. Skill started getting confused with image. Kit became a costume. Beginners began feeling like they had to buy belonging before they'd earned confidence on the road. But the magic of cycling has always lived somewhere else: in trust, timing, craft, and the quiet romance of a bunch rolling out together. The question is, are we protecting that—or pricing people out of it?One of the tools you will have heard Anthony chat about in this podcast is Training Peaks.

Many podcasts far more professional than ours have offered discrete segments covering different topics, so this week we decided to carefully organize the episode—wait, no we didn't; we're just rambling again. But we do begin with a small tribute to Jane Yolen, both a great writer and a great friend, which leads into some musings on how reputations are made and sustained. We then touch upon the recent Nebula Awards, the role of small presses like Subterranean, and some exciting new books we're reading, including Jacly Moriarty's Time Travel for Beginners. By our standards, all this is carefully planned and laser-focused.

Should beginner traders put their money into ETFs or shares?It's one of the first, and most confusing, questions new traders face. In this episode, Louise Bedford breaks it down, defines the key terms, and gives you the specific strategies you need to excel.You'll discover:The single biggest risk when trading ETFs that most beginners completely overlook.How the Kelly Principle can protect you from blowing up your account – and why it applies differently to shares versus ETFs.Why there are now more ETFs than individual stocks in the USA, and what this means for your trading decisions.Louise's key rule for choosing ETFs with confidence: always check Assets Under Management (AUM) and avoid the 'dogs'.The classic mistake most new traders make – chasing leverage and spreading themselves too thin – and why it destroys accounts fast.A timeless reminder from Ed Seykota: “There are no old, bold traders.”Louise also explains why you don't have to choose one side. You can trade both ETFs and shares – as long as you have a structured method.-----------------------------------------------Serious about getting the trading results you deserve?If you're serious about getting the trading results you deserve, don't leave it to chance.

Dave shares how he used Kiro and Claude to solve real problems: normalizing flood-damaged library inventory data, automating AWS well-architected review collateral, building a room-cleaning task agent for his 12-year-old, planning family menus with Apple Calendar integration, and post-processing live concert recordings.

When you're first starting out geocaching there is a lot to figure out. This episode I go over some basics and advice for when you're starting out geocaching.

Join us as Ocean House owner and award-winning author Deborah Goodrich Royce has a conversation with New York Times Bestselling author Katherine Center about her new book, The Shippers. Author Bio: BookPage calls Katherine Center “the reigning queen of comfort reads.” She's the New York Times bestselling author of over half a dozen books, including How to Walk Away, Things You Save in a Fire, and What You Wish For. Katherine writes laugh-and-cry books about how life knocks us down—and how we get back up. She's been compared to both Jane Austen and Nora Ephron, and the Dallas Morning News calls her stories, “satisfying in the most soul-nourishing way.” Her books have made countless Best-Of lists, including RealSimple's Best Books of 2020, Amazon's Top 100 Books of 2019, Goodreads' Best Books of the Year, and many more. Bestselling author Emily Henry calls her summer 2022 book, The Bodyguard, “a shot of pure joy.” The movie adaptation of Katherine's novel The Lost Husband (starring Josh Duhamel) hit #1 on Netflix, and her novel Happiness for Beginners is now a Netflix original starring Ellie Kemper. Katherine lives in her hometown of Houston, Texas, with her husband, two kids, and their fluffy-but-fierce dog. Book Summary: She wants him to help her woo someone else. Genius. Foolproof. Can't go wrong. After a lifetime of being bad at love, JoJo Burton vows to solve her intimacy issues once and for all at her sister's destination wedding on a cruise ship. Armed with pop psychology, she diagnoses herself with a fixation on the neighborhood guy who was her first crush and first kiss (and who just happens to be a newly-divorced wedding guest). Determined to woo him for closure, she ropes in her childhood bestie, Cooper Watts, as her wingman. Cooper: who RSVPed no, but showed up anyway. Cooper: who moved to London without a word four years ago. Cooper: who broke her heart. Shipboard antics abound in this witty, heart-tugging, childhood-friends-to-lovers romance, as JoJo and Cooper team up, fake flirt, slow dance, share a cabin, sing duets, get jealous, answer long-held questions, and finally, at last, discover truths about each other that will change everything.   For more information about Katherine Center, visit katherinecenter.com, and for more on Deborah Goodrich Royce and her new release, Best Boy, along with information about the Ocean House Author Series, visit deborahgoodrichroyce.com  

Every meaningful change begins with awareness. Before we can change a habit, improve our health, strengthen a relationship, or reduce stress, we first need to notice what's happening in the present moment. In today's meditation, we'll explore the foundation of mindful living: awareness.  This guided meditation will help you slow down, reconnect with the present moment, and lay the foundation for lasting personal growth. Perfect for: • Beginners to mindfulness • Stress reduction • Personal growth • Habit formation • Greater self-awareness • Living with more intention Today's intention: "I cannot change what I do not notice." Let's begin the journey together. A DAILY MESSAGE FOR YOUR HEART: Dear Friend, Welcome. Whether this is your first time meditating or you've walked this path before, I'm grateful you're here. Today marks the beginning of a new journey—not toward becoming someone else, but toward becoming more present with yourself and your life. As we begin, I want to gently remind you that meaningful change doesn't happen all at once. It happens in small moments of awareness. A pause before reacting. A deep breath before rushing ahead. A moment of noticing what you've been too busy to see. You don't need to have everything figured out. You don't need to be perfectly calm. You don't need to meditate perfectly. All you need to do is show up. The fact that you've chosen to spend these few moments caring for yourself tells me something important: there is a part of you that is ready to slow down, listen, and grow. Trust that part of yourself. Over the next seven days, we will take this journey one mindful step at a time. Some days may feel easier than others. Some lessons may resonate deeply, while others quietly plant seeds that bloom later. That's all part of the process. For now, simply allow yourself to be here. Exactly as you are. Exactly where you are. That is enough. And so are you. I'm honored to share this journey with you. With love, Mary This is day 1 of a 7-day meditation series, "Sleep Meditations to Stop Overthinking," episodes 2523-2529.   THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE:  Find A Meditation Accountability Partner Consider inviting someone to join you on your meditation journey. Have someone you can check in with regarding your meditation ritual. Perhaps meet with this person occasionally to meditate together.

Coming to you from the JRE Tobacco Aladino Studios, are you thinking about getting into cigars but not sure where to start? Or maybe you have a friend who's curious about the hobby and you're wondering what cigars to hand them first? Nick builds the ultimate beginner cigar sampler and breaks down the four cigars he'd recommend to help a new smoker learn about the world of premium cigars. Along the way, he discusses why mild doesn't have to mean flavorless, the difference between spice and strength, why dark wrappers aren't always stronger, and how different wrappers and tobacco varieties can completely change the smoking experience. Nick also explains why construction matters just as much as flavor, what new smokers should look for in a cigar, and why he has begun to generally avoid recommending flavored or sweet-tipped cigars to someone who wants to learn about premium tobacco. Whether you're brand new to cigars or looking for the perfect recommendations for a friend, this episode offers a practical roadmap for exploring the hobby one cigar at a time.

The BBC gets in early with its “ten years since the Brexit Referendum” jamboree with a “star”-studded retro-documentary, Brexit: A Very British Civil War from legendary film-maker Norma Percy. Our panel bravely retraumatise themselves by watching it. What do we learn that's new? Who comes out of it worst: Cameron, Corbyn, Johnson, Seumas Milne, Gove, Osbourne or Cummings? Could anything have averted this catastrophe? And have any of these egotists and hobby-horsers learned a damn thing in the past decade?  Plus, in related matters… Why do we believe what we believe? Why are conservatives more disgusted by disgusting things than liberals? And why (good news!) do liberals have more interesting sex?

Dog Show Tips for Beginners: Navigating the Learning Curve [caption id="attachment_15805" align="alignleft" width="522"] Matt Stroud with his dogs and his new children's book, "More than a Ribbon."[/caption] Host Laura Reeves welcomes Matt Stroud (known to some on Facebook as "Kermit the Dog"), an enthusiastic owner-handler of Schipperkes. Matt shares his journey from being a shy high schooler navigating 4-H with a poodle mix and a Yorkshire Terrier, to returning to the dog show world as an adult with his Schipperkes. Navigating the Learning Curve Matt candidly discusses the fragmented and confusing realities for newcomers, noting that while the sport is more visible than ever, basic logistics—like navigating superintendent websites to enter shows—can be overwhelming without insider knowledge. The Power of Mentorship and Responsibility A major turning point for Matt was meeting his tough-as-nails mentor, Audrey, who bluntly told him his struggles in the ring were his fault, not the dog's. Matt emphasizes the importance of accepting personal responsibility for grooming, conditioning and handling, rather than blaming judges or competitors. Highs, Lows and Dealing with Negativity Matt shares the incredible high of winning an Award of Merit at his first Westminster, contrasted with a humbling weekend where a lack of preparation resulted in losing every class. He also provides practical advice for handling "mean people" ringside: avoid vague-booking on Facebook and instead speak directly to the person to clear up misunderstandings. "More Than a Ribbon" Matt introduces his beautifully illustrated, rhyming children's book, More Than a Ribbon, A Dog Show Story. Inspired by his own journey and the beauty of outdoor shows like Palm Springs, the book is designed to help kids (and adults) normalize losing, learn that they cannot control every outcome and find comfort in their community. Matt's Top 3 Tips for Beginners: Filter the advice you receiveand consider whether it empowers you to improve.Take personal responsibilityfor understanding ribbons, placements and ring procedures.Never give up, because even through dry spells, your winning moment will come.

In this episode, Ania and Roy tackle a topic close to every Polish learner's heart — the very first words and sounds you encounter when learning Polish! Roy shares his honest experience as a foreigner living in Poland: from the very first Polish word he ever heard (spoiler: it's a swear word!), to the hardest names and phrases to pronounce, to the hilarious story of using the wrong word at a very formal meeting. Along the way, Ania reveals the most common pronunciation mistakes her students make and explains why making mistakes is actually a vital part of the process.  

In this episode, Ania and Roy dive into everyone's favourite topic — Wakacje (Vacation)! They chat about when they prefer to take their holidays, what comes to mind when they think of time off, and the classic debate: active holidays vs. lazy all-inclusive resorts. Roy shares his plans for Ibiza, while Ania admits she is firmly on "Team Lazy". Along the way, you'll learn plenty of Polish vocabulary for describing holidays, travel preferences, and relaxing.
