If you have ever felt like you are doing all the right things in your business… and still not getting the "yes" you thought you earned, this episode is for you. In this conversation, we explore why the best strategy is often the best story, and how to tell yours in a way that feels human, true, and unmistakably compelling. Not slick. Not performative. Not written by a robot. Just clear, honest, and strong enough to carry your Vision. You will leave this episode with a sharper sense of what makes a story work, and a practical way to shape your message so people actually care, remember it, and want to be part of it. What you will learn: How to stop making your audience do all the work to "get it," and instead guide them into emotional clarity. The simple story structure that consistently earns attention, trust, and buy-in. How to tell your story in a way that feels like generosity, not marketing. Why a polished story is not about being impressive, but about being understood. How to think in ripple results, so the work you do today actually echoes toward what you are building. If your Static has been whispering that you need a better plan, a better funnel, or a better script… you might simply need a better story.

   The Royals played a terrific game and bailed out the organization's leadership team after two absolutely awful pre-determined roster roles before spring training even started.  The good news, I double we will see Charlie Sheen attempt to close another game in Royals blue.  Now it's opening day and the Royals are big faves against the Twins... Let's go!    Topeka native Gary Woodland could be the best sports story in the world this year after recovering from brain surgery, publicly dealing with PTSD and winning a tourney for the first time in almost 7 years.  This is a great American sports story.    The Final 4 is set and Illinois coach Brad Underwood and his star freshman from KC are living the dream.    A new report indicates Tiger Woods was told by Trump's Secret Service that he could not operate a motor vehicle with any of Trump's grandchildren in the car or he'd be arrested.  This was BEFORE his fourth crash since 2009.    The No Kings rallies are filled with liberal gaffes, Trump wants to control and rename the Strait of Hormuz and we have a tasty Final Final if you like candy bars.

Tessa Szyszkowitz im Gespräch mit Erich FollathMIT DIKTATOREN REDENErich Follath über seine Treffen mit Gewaltherrschern und die Hintergründe ihres Aufstiegs und Falls.Kann man Tyrannei und Mordlust beschreiben? Ihre Ursachen erklären? Erich Follath, fast fünf Jahrzehnte lang Reporter und Auslandskorrespondent von STERN, SPIEGEL und ZEIT, erzählt in seinem neuen Buch von ungewöhnlichen Begegnungen und kontroversen Gesprächen mit einigen der schlimmsten Politikern unserer Zeit. Und auch von den Folgen, mit denen er bei seinen Recherchen persönlich konfrontiert war. So heißt es schon im Vorwort: „Wie ich einmal zum Tode verurteilt wurde – und dreizehn Jahre später mit dem dafür verantwortlichen Tyrannen ein Interview führen konnte.“ Der Täter war Mobutu Sese Seko, der ehemalige Präsident des Kongo.Follath hat Muammar al-Gaddafi in seinem Wüstenzelt besucht, er lauschte einer privaten Gesangseinlage von Imelda Marcos, spielte Schach mit Menachem Begin und erlebte einen Blackout mit Jassir Arafat. Pol Pots Privatsekretär erzählte ihm beim Tee, warum er die Witwe des Massenmörders ehelichte und dessen Tochter großzog. Aber „Alle meine Mörder“ ist weit mehr als eine Aneinanderreihung von verblüffenden Treffen. Der Autor hat sich auch intensiv mit den Auswirkungen der Tyrannen beschäftigt und hat sich auf die Spuren von Angehörigen der Täter, Weggefährten und Opfern begeben. Erich Follath war Journalist beim Stern, erlebte als Reporter 1979 den Umsturz im Iran. 1994 wechselte er zum Spiegel, hat 20 Jahre beim STERN und 22 Jahre für den SPIEGEL gearbeitet, seit 2017 schreibt er für DIE ZEIT. Der promovierte Politologe ist Autor zahlreicher Sachbücher, die zu Bestsellern wurden, so „Das Vermächtnis des Dalai Lama“, „Die neuen Großmächte“ und „Jenseits aller Grenzen“. Sein Buch „Alle meine Mörder“ ist soeben im Picus Verlag erschienen.Tessa Szyszkowitz ist Journalistin und Autorin, sie schreibt aus London für den Falter, Tagesspiegel and NZZ am Sonntag. Ihr jüngstes Buch: “Echte Engländer – Britannien und der Brexit” (Picus Verlag, 2018). Sie ist Distinguished Fellow of Rusi, the Royal United Services Institute. Sie wurde mit dem FPA Media Award for Best Story of the Year 2025 ausgezeichnet.

And that, kids, puts us in an unexpected position. Who would've thought that by the middle of March, with the UFC fresh off announcing the fight card for its gala event at the White House, the biggest story in the sport would be Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian making their first foray into MMA? Crazy days. This week we ask: Is this a problem for the UFC? If so, how big? And what exactly does MVP want to be in the MMA space? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

McKay reveals why the most critical factor for success in business and life isn't the product, price, or timing, but the power of a compelling story. He demonstrates that the "best story wins" by reframing value, creating emotional connection, and motivating action in ways that data and features alone cannot.Drawing on case studies from disruptive brands like Canva, Duolingo, and Moderna, McKay shows how storytelling can redefine entire industries. He breaks down powerful communication frameworks, including Simon Sinek's "Golden Circle," Donald Miller's "StoryBrand," and Barbara Minto's "Pyramid Principle," to provide a clear roadmap for crafting impactful narratives. By positioning the customer as the hero and the business as the guide, he illustrates how to move beyond product features to address core human motivations and frustrations. Ultimately, this episode equips listeners with the tools to craft irresistible stories that capture attention, build loyalty, and drive results.Main Themes:Why the best story always wins in businessThe StoryBrand Framework: Positioning the customer as the heroSimon Sinek's Golden Circle: Starting with "Why"The Pyramid Principle: Leading with the answer firstCase studies in storytelling: Canva, Duolingo, Apple, and PatagoniaUsing "anticipation hooks" to engage listenersTapping into the brain's "narrative network" to create emotional connectionHow fictional stories dramatically increased the value of simple productsReframing complex technology (Moderna's mRNA) into a simple, empowering narrativeShifting from a product-focused to a story-focused sales approachTop 10 Quotes:"The best story wins.""A story is a piece of information wrapped in emotion.""People don't buy what you do; they buy why you do it.""Your customer is the hero.

Greg says the media's obsession with turning every Trump story into a possible scandal is non-stop, but there was one incredibly inconsequential construction project in Washington that they just could not shut up about. Then it's on to the stories the media didn't cover much or didn't want to cover. Jim points to the scant media attention given to the remarkable educational advancements happening in Mississippi. Greg focuses on the media's yawning over the persecution of Christians, even when Trump and the pope are speaking out against it.Finally, they reveal their selections for best stories of the year.

Stories From the Road, Lessons From the Grind | Drag Drive Repeat Show EP 131 presented by Summit Racing – Featuring Ry KlempIntroduction: The Stories That Define a CommunityEpisode 131 of the Drag Drive Repeat Show presented by Summit Racing opened with a familiar tone. Calm. Direct. Warm in the way only drag-and-drive people can be warm, even while they joke about broken parts, sleepless nights, and gas-station parking lot repairs.This episode wasn't about big announcements or season-ending drama. It was about people. People doing their best under tough conditions. People helping each other when things break. People finishing what they started even when it hurts.Mike Narx and Eric White welcomed Ry Klemp, the racer whose name became synonymous with the “Best Story of the Year” award. His willingness to talk about failure, pain, brotherhood, and the real side of drag-and-drive shaped the soul of the episode.And for the next two hours, the show unfolded into an honest set of stories about struggle, hope, weird failures, victories that don't show on a timeslip, and the kind of road-family moments that keep racers coming back.

We are still recovering from the laughs at the end of this episode! Before getting to that story, this one had a great training discussion on improving threshold performance.

We broaden it out to address recent conversations on VO2 and longevity. David went for a joke that almost ended the podcast altogether. You know, the usual.And this one was full of great topics! Other topics: the hot tub science experiment, Megan's inclusion on the Singletrack list for course records of the year, the most hilarious year-end list, David's fueling realization, the continuation of the shoe saga, a study on breakfast and metabolic health, the Roast My Strava app, self-care gifts, how to run strides, peeing in longer races, overpronation and shoe choices, dressing in winter, rowing as cross-training, and the most beautiful Listener Corner message.It ended with a story that we have been holding in for a full year.

Following the release of his work, The War of the Worlds Did Not Take Place, Nick Susi joins the pod to unravel the real War of the Worlds myth: not alien panic, but a battle between newspapers and radio that manufactured mass hysteria. Phillip, Brian, and Nick explore how narrative form shapes collective memory, why brands weaponize conflict for attention, and what happens when everything becomes participatory fan fiction.Behind the Curtain of Inherited MythKey takeaways:Structured narratives outlast formless truth in collective memory.Brands now weaponize conflict and controversy for attention economics.Everything is becoming participatory, co-created, and infinite fan fiction."The War of the Worlds is not actually a war between humans and aliens. It's really this war between mediums." — Nick Susi"We've entered the phase of the attention economy where the game is attention at any and all costs." — Nick Susi"People don't want to share the thing.

In this episode of All About Capital Campaigns, Andrea Kihlstedt sits down with Graeme Watt, co-owner of Anthem Creative, to explore how nonprofit leaders can sharpen their storytelling to strengthen donor engagement and drive campaign results.Graeme shares his journey from founding a grassroots youth nonprofit in his living room to leading large-scale digital storytelling efforts with organizations like World Vision. His experience on both sides of the nonprofit spectrum (nimble startup and global giant) gives him a rare lens into what makes storytelling resonate across channels and audiences.The episode introduces the concept of “anthem stories”: compelling narratives that distill the essence of a nonprofit's mission, vision, and values through the lived experience of a single person or community. Graeme breaks down how these stories can move beyond abstract mission statements to become powerful tools for donor acquisition, cultivation, and stewardship.Key Highlights Include:Why the phrase “whoever tells the best story wins” matters more than ever in a competitive fundraising environmentThe difference between mission statements that glaze over eyes and stories that make people lean inHow to identify your organization's anthem stories, and why you should train your entire team to do the sameStrategies for building a story identification system that draws on frontline staff without overwhelming themHow stories can be used face-to-face by gift officers and board members, or repurposed into long-form content for donor eventsWhy the best campaigns don't just raise money for buildings or equipment—they tell deeper stories about impact and transformationWhat AI may mean for nonprofit storytelling, and why human emotion, authenticity, and connection remain irreplaceableGraeme also discusses how capital campaigns present a unique opportunity to wrap bold, inspiring stories around organizational moments. Whether you're raising funds for a new facility, celebrating an anniversary, or preparing for a major initiative, understanding and communicating the "bigger story" behind your campaign can make all the difference.He and Andrea examine practical examples, including how a $600,000 septic system became part of a $2.8 million storytelling-driven campaign, and reflect on the common hesitation nonprofits feel about telling their own stories. They explore why even experienced fundraising professionals can find it challenging to gather and share stories, and how to shift that mindset by embedding storytelling into organizational culture.To wrap up, Graeme offers two key takeaways:Create a story identification strategy that equips your team to recognize and collect meaningful stories.Be bold. Don't settle for safe, forgettable content. Take creative risks that cut through the noise and connect with the right donors.Whether you're deep into a campaign or just starting to explore how storytelling fits into your fundraising strategy, this episode offers thoughtful insight, practical steps, and inspiring encouragement to help you turn your stories into tools for impact.For more about Graeme's work, visit AnthemCreative.ca.To access free resources on capital campaigns, including guides and tools mentioned in the episode, visit capitalcampaignpro.com/resources.
