Most producers say they want to dominate 2026, yet many are still waiting for permission. Waiting for the “right time” to invest in themselves. Waiting to see if someone else will sign off on it. That mindset quietly keeps people stuck—and it's far more common than most want to admit.In this episode, I sit down with my client and friend, Andy Neary, for an honest, no-fluff conversation about what actually holds high performers back. We talk about why driven professionals often struggle with self-worth, why chasing a “guaranteed ROI” can sabotage momentum, and how confidence isn't something you wait to feel—it's something you build by consistently showing up for yourself.This is a real conversation about responsibility, ownership, and what it takes to stop playing small as the new year approaches.About The Guest: Andy Neary is a speaker, author, podcast host, and coach dedicated to helping professionals build the mindset, habits, and strategies needed to excel in business and life. A former professional baseball player in the Milwaukee Brewers organization, Andy leveraged discipline, unshakeable drive, and consistent daily habits to succeed at the highest level — despite being undersized for his position. Andy Neary - Speaker, Author, ConsultantToday, he applies those same lessons off the field through Complete Game Consulting, a coaching and training company he founded in 2019, where he advises insurance professionals and agencies on mindset, marketing, branding, and performance. Andy is also host of Bullpen Sessions, a podcast for driven professionals focused on mindset and tactics for success.

We're wrapping up the year by replaying the episodes you loved most in 2025 while we spend time with our friends and family over the holidays! AKA the episodes you guys streamed the most! Thank you so much for your support of the podcast in 2025. We hope you have an amazing holiday surrounded by loved ones, peaceful moments, and memories in the making. Cheers!   May is a big month! Lee's birthday is just around the corner (May 19th, mark your calendars!), and we're celebrating an exciting win: we've officially been named Best Podcast in Charlotte by the BOB Awards! THANK YOU to all our listeners for your support—we love y'all.   In this lighthearted episode, we're catching up on recent adventures: traveling, running into Bobby Lee (yes, really), and making memories with our kids and grandkids. Liz shares a hilarious story from her days as a young basketball player (let's just say the ref definitely remembers her), and Lee reflects on a recent NYC workout class that sparked some thoughts on industry trends, self-awareness, and innovation. Then, we dive into a round of rapid fire questions—from where we'd open our next studio to the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to Lee while teaching a class.    Some key takeaways from this episode include: Stay curious about your industry. See what others are doing, learn from them, and evolve your own methods to stay fresh and effective. It's great to look to others for inspiration, but being your original authentic self is always going to pay dividends. Press pause more often! You don't need a magic button to reflect, reset, and respond with intention in life and relationships. Take some time to reflect before you respond.  Celebrate the people you've helped raise.

Cardinals counterintuitive holiday shopping list could leave a hole in tradition

There should be ballads written about Willson Contreras' brief time with the Cardinals. From his arrival as the All-Star eager for the challenge of following Yadier Molina, to that weird week when he took fly balls in left field and stopped catching, to the injuries and fractures and ultimately his move to first base, out from behind home plate without skipping a beat at the plate. Contreras brought both joy and fury to the Cardinals' lineup and clubhouse, and at some point his absence will be felt by the teammates who remain. But he won't be a alone. In a brand new Best Podcast in Baseball, recorded on Christmas Eve, Post-Dispatch editor Nathan Mills and baseball writer Derrick Goold discuss the Cardinals' counterintuitive shopping list for the holidays and what is missing from it and possibly from the clubhouse during his reboot of an organization. The Cardinals traded a starter (Sonny Gray) only to sign a starter (Dustin May) a few weeks later; they traded a right-handed bat from the middle of the order (Contreras) only to suggest a few hours later that they would now look for a right-handed bat to add to the roster. The Cardinals are swapping All-Stars for pitching depth and then looking to replace those veterans with players on shorter-term deals or with more control and less cost. What's missing from those moves is the leadership and experience that the Cardinals have long championed as part of their continuity, as part of their identity as a club. And more trades ahead could mean the departure of Brendan Donovan, who personifies the way the Cardinals like to play and be in the clubhouse; JoJo Romreo, the seasoned reliever in the bullpen; and Nolan Arenado, the future Hall of Famer and Gold Glove-cornerstone at third.  Mills and Goold discuss what happens when a young group of players isn't inheriting expectations but tasked with trying to grow them.

In its 13th season as one of the first and most widely heard podcasts on baseball and the Cardinals, the Best Podcast in Baseball has reached a new season-high with 30 episodes.

And of course, beyond filmmaking, Reiner will be remembered for his most iconic comedic role as Mike Stivic (or Meathead as father-in-law Archie Bunker called him) on "All in the Family." On this episode, co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz discuss Reiner's legacy, including his most memorable films and appearances. Then, Miller shares an interview he had with Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson, stars of the new film "Song Sung Blue," which could be this year's go-to movie during the holiday season.

What stories do the 2026 Golden Globe nominations tell? "Wicked: For Good" couldn't get a nomination for best motion picture-musical or comedy.

More Post-Dispatch podcasts.  Please consider subscribing. As the Cardinals have retreated from annual October appearances they have also faded from the national spotlight. They haven't been historically bad. They haven't been as good as their recent history. Jordan Shusterman, senior writer at Yahoo! Sports and host of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, begins a converation on a brand new Best Podcast in Baseball there: Their absence from the national conversation and what will get them back. The answer, of course, is identifying what current players must be a part of the next contending core. That drives this new episode of the long-running Cardinals podcast. When Shusterman joined BPIB and host Derrick Goold for this recording, he entered his name as "#1 Jimmy Crooks Fan," and that fondness for the Cardinals' left-handed hitting catching prospect came up as the two baseball writers tracked the list of teams that have missed the postseason in the same years as the Cardinals. One of those teams -- the San Francisco Giants -- is not only the subject of a forthcoming article by Shusterman but also one of the teams interested in the Cardinals' Brendan Donovan and also a team that shares a standout trait with the Cardinals. Both clubs featured Hall of Fame caliber catchers as their cornerstones and have faded in the years since Buster Posey and Yadier Molina retired. The podcast also includes a discussion on sleeper picks for the future core and how lefty Liam Doyle, the Cardinals' first-round pick in the recent draft, could wake up the ballpark with his debut and personality, if the performance is there to match. He's compared to a closer, just at the start of the game. Plus, did Cardinals' fatigue contribute to the Cardinals' drift out of the national headlines?

Back from Orlando, Florida, and the annual Winter Meetings and into the chill of St. Louis, Post-Dispatch baseball writer Derrick Goold shares with editor Nathan Mills what he learned about the Cardinals stoking the hot stove for a busy few weeks heading toward the holidays. The Cardinals gave a glimpse into their enhanced scouting staff and expanded view of the marketplace as well as revealed how they may look to add the same roles they've been looking to trade and what traits they're seeking in the pitchers they continue to collect. The Brendan Donovan market is so strong that other teams are wondering what they can get for their infielders. The Willson Contreras market is starting to take shape, but will it matter if he won't accept a trade? And the Nolan Arenado market is going to be slower to develop. All of that, plus Mills sternly rebukes Goold's suggestion that the Dodgers go ahead and get it over and just trade for Mr. and Mrs. Met already and complete the Edwin Diaz trumpet-blaring entry into the ninth inning. There is also an unexpected power ranking of mascots. In its 13th season as one of the first and most widely heard podcasts on baseball and the Cardinals, the Best Podcast in Baseball has reached a new season-high with 30 episodes. Each episode is sponsored weekly by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and lead baseball writer Derrick Goold.

Studios love to hold movies back until the end of the year to sneak into awards conversations. "Song Sung Blue" with Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson, along with "Marty Supreme" starring Timothée Chalamet and Gwyneth Paltrow, are among the films trying to catch the attention of critics. Another film that hits a similar chord is "Sentimental Value," the latest film from Joachim Trier starring Renate Reinsve, Elle Fanning and Stellan Skarsgård. In this episode, co-host Bruce Miller catches up with Trier about the film and his overall style that allows his films to "say enough, but not too much." We also talk about the first batch of episodes of "Stranger Things," which released the first half of its season in time for the Thanksgiving break. Co-host Terry Lipshetz watched the episodes with his family and shares his thoughts about the final run. About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is the retired editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, a senior producer for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin.

Which Podcast Platform is Best? Podcast Hosting Platforms Vs Podcast Streaming Directories: Research Explained with Favour Obasi-Ike | Sign up for exclusive SEO insights.This podcast episode provides a comprehensive discussion on starting and growing a podcast, focusing heavily on the selection of the best podcasting platform. A key distinction is made between podcast hosting platforms (like Spotify for Creators, formerly Anchor.fm) and podcast listening platforms (such as Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon), emphasizing that a host distributes content via an RSS feed to multiple directories.Our conversation underscores that podcasting should be conversation-first, not monetization-first, and advises beginners to start for free to minimize initial costs. Practical advice is offered on SEO for podcasts, including the importance of consistent episode releases, with statistics showing that many podcasters quit early, and also highlights the benefit of choosing an IAB-compliant host for future monetization opportunities through advertising networks.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Next Steps for Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

With just a microphone and an idea, it seems you can reach a global audience, build a community, and create a thriving brand. This allure draws thousands of aspiring creators to the medium, all asking the same questions: "How do I start? Which platform is best? How do I make money?"But the common wisdom surrounding podcasting is often a minefield of misleading advice and expensive pitfalls. The path to a successful, sustainable show is paved with counter-intuitive truths that most creators learn the hard way. The reality is that podcasting is less about instant fame and fortune and more about a long-term commitment to a very specific craft.This article will save you time, money, and frustration. We've distilled the most surprising and impactful lessons learned from podcasting experts into four foundational takeaways. Understanding these truths from day one will give you a realistic roadmap and a significant advantage over the thousands who quit before they ever find their voice.1. It's a Conversation, Not a Cash MachineThe most common mistake new podcasters make is focusing on monetization from day one. They get caught up in finding ad sponsors and driving transactions before they've even built an audience. The primary purpose of a podcast, especially in its early stages, must be conversation. When you have a conversation with someone, you don't expect a monetary transaction afterward; you expect an exchange of value.In podcasting, that value is trust, thought leadership, and a genuine relationship with your listeners—all earned over time. Trying to monetize too early feels transactional and inauthentic, pushing potential listeners away before they have a chance to connect. As one expert puts it, the focus must be on the relationship first."if you start a podcast to run ads or to monetize, you you're actually better off starting a business than starting a podcast to monetize."This "conversation first" approach is far more sustainable. It allows you to build a loyal community that values your perspective. Monetization can and will come later, but only after trust has been firmly established. That trust is ultimately a more valuable asset than any early ad revenue.2. Your First Episodes Will Suck (So Don't Buy That $400 Mic)Many aspiring podcasters fall hook, line, and sinker for spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on expensive equipment before they've produced a single minute of content. This is a costly mistake. I've seen seasoned creators get their best gear for dirt cheap simply by buying it from new podcasters who quit. They'll see someone selling a barely-used $400 SM7B mic for a fraction of the price because the owner never got past a few episodes.Your initial focus shouldn't be on perfect production quality but on practice. The average podcaster quits after just eight episodes. Why? Because that marks about two months of the relentless "record, edit, publish, distribute" cycle. It's the point where initial excitement fades and the reality of the grind sets in. A large upfront investment becomes a huge financial risk when the odds of sticking with it are so low."Good practice cuz your episodes in the beginning suck. It's it's just the way that it is. You know you learn the the quality of your voice. You start learning techniques."So here is the best advice you will get. Start today. Open the voice memo app on your phone, find a quiet place, and record. The goal isn't perfection; it's practice. Once you have a consistent workflow and are confident in your content, then you can consider upgrading your gear.3. A "Published" Podcast That Isn't Distributed Is Just a DraftThis is one of the most critical and misunderstood aspects of podcasting. New creators often believe that once they upload an episode to their podcast hosting platform, their job is done. This is wrong. A hosting platform is simply the "floppy disc" or "external hard drive" where your audio files are stored. It does not automatically put your show in front of listeners.To be heard, your podcast must be on listening platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pandora, and iHeartRadio. The key to this is your RSS feed. Think of it like a website's sitemap; it's the link that allows all the different directories to find and display your content. Submitting this feed to every possible listening platform is a non-negotiable step that many beginners miss.I see this scenario play out every day. Person A publishes 10 episodes but only makes them available on their hosting site. Person B publishes the same 10 episodes but distributes their RSS feed to 20 different listening platforms. Person B has a dramatically higher probability of being discovered because they are accessible where listeners actually are. Experts tell stories of being discovered on niche platforms by international listeners—a listener from the UK finding a show on Castbox while helping a client in Spain. That serendipity only happens with wide distribution."if you don't have a podcast that is accessible then you don't really have a podcast you have I don't know what to call it but it's I would call it a draft because it's not something that is accessible"4. The Sobering Reality: The 2-Year, 100-Episode GauntletPodcasting is not a get-rich-quick scheme; it is a marathon. The statistics on podcasting longevity from Pod Match are stark and should be a reality check for anyone looking for immediate results.On average, it takes 2 years and 100 released episodes for a podcaster to begin seeing real, tangible results, whether that's meaningful audience growth, genuine community engagement, or sustainable monetization opportunities. The commitment required to reach that point is immense, and the attrition rate is staggering. Consider this statistical funnel:• The chance of a new podcast reaching just eight episodes is 45%.• The chance of hitting 50 episodes drops to 12.6%.• The milestone of 100 episodes is achieved by a mere 6% of podcasters.What this data tells us is that success in podcasting is a game of consistency and long-term commitment. It's about showing up week after week, building your catalog, and earning listener trust one episode at a time. The real value you're building over those first 100 episodes is not currency, but trust—an asset that is far more durable and powerful in the long run.Are You Ready to Play the Long Game?Successful podcasting defies the conventional wisdom of quick wins and easy money. The path is paved with a different set of priorities: prioritize genuine conversation over premature monetization, start lean and focus on practice before buying expensive gear, ensure your show is widely distributed, and most importantly, commit to the long and consistent work required to build trust.These truths aren't meant to discourage you, but to empower you with a realistic framework for success. By understanding the real challenges from the outset, you can avoid the common pitfalls that cause so many others to give up. This isn't just about business strategy; it's about legacy. As one creator reflected, "I know one day, God willing, my grandkids, my kids will be able to listen to my voice."Knowing that the real prize is trust built over time—a legacy you can leave behind—what conversation are you willing to commit to for the next 100 episodes?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There is no bumper sticker, no buzzy campaign slogan that captures the challenge facing Major League Baseball and its 30 clubs as economic disparity grows and the expiration of the Collective Bargaining Agreement arrives. A complex issue requires a complex solution. Or does it? A brief conversation about the Cardinals' spending strategy and past history with free agency, based on research done for The Write Fielder newsletter, spirals into a much larger debate between Best Podcast in Baseball host Derrick Goold and guest Kevin Wheeler, of KMOX/104.1 FM. After detailing how the Cardinals got into their current predicament, the questions that follow are two-fold: Do the Cardinals need to change their approach to free agency to return to contention, and does MLB need to change its economic structure for the Cardinals to have a new approach to free agency. The debate ignites from there. Wheeler makes a compelling case for how the Cardinals needed to "swim in deeper waters" for free agency and a more conservative approach caught up with them. He adds that a team now focused on development needs to produce its own stars. Goold counters by wondering what World Series contenders have developed their star and not had to outfit the roster with free-agent moves to complete the championship-caliber roster. The Yankees may have Aaron Judge, and they used prospects to trade for Juan Soto once, but they also signed Gerrit Cole. The Kansas City Royals have a homegrown, bona fide star in Bobby Witt Jr. But what's next? That's where the economics of the game enter the conversation and Wheeler's stance that the "big boys" need to play ball for the betterment of the game, and if that means taking less or receiving a smaller cut to spur and require the spending of the smaller markets so be it. Goold makes a suggestion for pulling that off that Wheeler contends would be difficult to sell to fans who what the tangible bumper sticker, not the boring details of how it gets done. Eventually they agree on one. It's the TV deal. Wheeler's arguments that hinge on a comparison to the NBA and its salary cap format require there to be a much larger national TV deal, one closer to what the NBA has. And that is the crux of this. Once that's in place then negotiations about a salarly floor, shared revenue, and an international draft to better balance talent coming from abroad are all more tangible because the largest issue -- the growing gulch between teams -- has been bridged.

More Post-Dispatch podcasts.  Please consider subscribing. From the start of the offseason and the beginning for a new front officer leader, the Cardinals have signaled their priority this winter is to accumulate talent that will help them contend in the future. They began that process by trading Sonny Gray and $20 million to the Boston Red Sox for a pair of pitching prospects, Richard Fitts and Brandon Clarke, and now the Cardinals' pursuit continues with the arrival of MLB's biggest gathering of the Hot Stove season. The Winter Meetings are coming. To discuss the Cardinals' to-do list for the Winter Meetings, KMOX/104.1 FM's Kevin Wheeler rejoins the Best Podcast in Baseball. He and BPIB host Derrick Goold discuss the Cardinals' search to trade Nolan Arenado and what happens if another winter passes without a deal; which of the players nearing free agency, such as Brendan Donovan and JoJo Romero, will help the Cardinals achieve their goal of accumulating young talent; and what does a contract extension look like for manager Oli Marmol. The significant National Baseball Hall of Fame vote set for Dec. 7 is also discussed. This is the first of two episodes because what started as a short conversation spilled into a heated debate about, oh, just the future economic structure of baseball. Look for that bonus BPIB shortly.
