In this Dailycast episode of Wrestling Coast to Coast, Chris Maitland and Justin McClelland review last week's Wrestling Open with the highly anticipated Street Fight between Steven Stetson and Danny Miles, plus the breakup of another group - Big Business - and the ensuing fallout between former friends Brad Hollister and T.J. Crawford, Sammy Diaz vs. Dustin "Flash" Waller, and more. We also go over the strengths of Wrestling Open - strong focus on storytelling, good character development - and some weaknesses, but overall this remains a jewel in the indy wrestling world. For VIP listeners, it's back to GCW where Bear Bronson battles the (presumably) departing Richard Holiday, and Bustah and the Brain defend the tag titles against Star Struck.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/pwtorch-dailycast--3276210/support.

Small Town, Big Business: The Alexanders Bring Independent Primary Care Back to MarionHosts Jennifer Olson and Russell Williams welcome Dr. Jim Alexander and physician assistant Jennifer “Jen” Alexander to discuss opening Alexander Family Practice on West Main Street in downtown Marion, Illinois. They share their history practicing in the region since the early 2000s, a brief out-of-state hiatus, and their decision to return to independent medicine to restore one-on-one, continuity-based care and reduce corporate “layers” that frustrate patients. Jen describes learning the business side of healthcare, especially insurance credentialing, electronic systems, and billing, and credits community resources and a strong referral network built over decades. They highlight services including preventive care, laceration repair, dermatology procedures, joint injections, and Botox/fillers, note they see patients from newborns to a 109-year-old, introduce their social-media mascot “Mac Daddy,” and explain how to become a new patient and how to contact the office.Recorded at EThOs Small Business Incubator and Co-working Spaces in Marion, Illinois.https://members.ethosmarion.org/ SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCASTOur guest: https://www.facebook.com/p/Alexander-Family-Practice-61566590492602/

The Color of Money | Transformative Conversations for Wealth Building
We often talk about building wealth through business, real estate, income, and investments. But in this episode, we challenge ourselves to look at the asset that makes all of that possible: our health.We dig into the connection between physical health, mental health, stress, discipline, decision-making, and long-term wealth creation. From gym routines and bloodwork to AI health tracking, executive physicals, depression, financial stress, and the realities facing Black communities, this conversation gets honest about what happens when we ignore our bodies and minds while chasing success.We also share personal stories about stress, poor decisions, burnout, and the cost of putting everyone else first. The reminder is simple but urgent: we cannot build, lead, earn, serve, or leave a legacy if we are running on empty.Health is not separate from wealth. Health is wealth.We Talk About:[00:00] Health Is the First Asset[03:07] The Body Gets Ignored[07:26] Money Isn't the Whole Portfolio[08:29] Stress Is the Silent Tax[14:35] Habits With Real ROI[20:02] Discipline Shows Up Everywhere[30:51] Put the Oxygen Mask on FirstResources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyLearn more at LifeForceBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood | Parenting Tips From Funny Moms
This month, our "Deep Dive" is into some of our past episodes about screen time: the effects it has on our kids, how tech companies engineer their devices to be as addictive as possible, and how we can allow our kids to enjoy screens with supportive limits. Psychologist Susan Linn, author of WHO'S RAISING THE KIDS? BIG TECH, BIG BUSINESS, AND THE LIVES OF CHILDREN, isn't anti-technology. She's anti-advertising to children, and has spent her long career spotlighting the "monumental shift towards a digitized-commercialized childhood." With smart speakers and screens at arms' reach wherever kids go, digital technologies continue to evolve much faster than our understanding of the ramifications of their dominance in our kids' lives. Susan began her career as award-winning ventriloquist (here she is on Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood!) and has become a world-renowned expert on creative play and the impact of media and commercial marketing on children. In this episode, Susan tells us Why her point isn't to make parents feel guilty Why the best kinds of toys for children do very little How branding can creep in where we sometimes don't even perceive it What we can do to set parameters on the commercializing of our own kids' lives Here's where you can find Susan: Twitter: @drsusanlinn susanlinn.net fairplayforkids.org Buy Susan's book: https://bookshop.org/a/12099/9781620972274 What Fresh Hell is co-hosted by Amy Wilson and Margaret Ables.

All this extreme heat is tough on food truck drivers, but great news if you work in an ice cream truck. WBZ's Emma Friedman explains.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
G.K. Chesterton published The Outline of Sanity in 1926—a blueprint for a third way between capitalism and socialism, grounded in widespread property ownership, local accountability, and the rejection of mass dependence. A century later, the argument reads less like a footnote and more like a forecast. In this episode, hosts Grettelyn Darkey and Joe Grabowski—who wrote the introduction to the new ACS Books centennial edition—walk through Chesterton's economic vision section by section and make the case that his outline is still waiting to be built. In This Episode: Why G.K. Chesterton refused to let "capitalism" stand for what he meant and what the naming problem reveals about the false choice between two economic systems How G.K. Chesterton identified big business and big government as natural allies before anyone else did and why he saw their collusion coming as early as 1926 What G.K. Chesterton actually proposed: the section-by-section case for small ownership, fair regulation, and buying local over buying cheap Why G.K. Chesterton's warnings about advertising, standardization, and machinery anticipate the AI moment better than most things written in the last decade The tension G.K. Chesterton resolved that most economic thinkers never address: the difference between idealism, cynicism, and what he called sanity Chapters: 00:00: Introduction and Welcome 01:09: The ACS Centennial Edition and Why This Year 03:15: The Origins of Distributism and G.K.'s Weekly 08:58: What to Expect from The Outline of Sanity 11:08: Defining Capitalism—Why the Name Was Stolen 18:22: Big Business and Big Government in League 24:30: What Chesterton Actually Proposes: Regulation and Reform 28:40: Vote with Your Wallet: Boycotts, Advertising, and Snake Oil 39:58: The Land, the Machine, and Chesterton's Prophetic Vision 45:15: The Practicality of Idealism: Not Cynicism, Not Naïveté Resources Mentioned: The Outline of Sanity by G.K.

Small Town, Deep Roots: Amy Eckert on Building Gideon Realty in Marion, IllinoisJennifer Olson and Russell Williams host Small Town, Big Business from downtown Marion, Illinois, introduce sponsors, and interview Amy Eckert of Gideon Realty. A lifelong Marion resident, Eckert shares her family background, memories of Marion's downtown-to-mall-to-downtown shift, and her path from part-time jobs and 10.5 years in local radio to homeschooling her sons for 16–17 years after feeling called to do so. She describes leadership experience in multi-level marketing, earning her real estate license in 2017 with mentor Joanna Farrell, later obtaining a managing broker license, and in May of the prior year launching the intentionally small “boutique” Gideon Realty after guidance from Ethos and attorney Martin Parsons. Eckert emphasizes personalized, local, relationship-based service, education for buyers and sellers, and her trademarked tagline, “Small Town, Deep Roots,” and shares how to contact her via Facebook or 618-922-8820.Recorded at EThOs Small Business Incubator and Co-working Spaces in Marion, Illinois.https://members.ethosmarion.org/ SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCASTOur guest: https://www.facebook.com/RealEstateSouthernIllinois/
2026-06-22 Update From Anne: This conversation with Hunter Peterson was recorded before the bankruptcy court bidding process discussed in the interview had concluded. Since then, plans have changed - Hunter and his team are now focused on building a brand-new airline rather than acquiring an existing one. One thing I've learned from talking with entrepreneurs over the years is that the path to success is rarely a straight line. Sometimes the most exciting opportunities come from adapting, pivoting, and embracing a new vision. I'm so excited to see where this next chapter takes him, and I'm super grateful he shared his journey with us. I'm looking forward to welcoming him back to the podcast and hearing how things progress. Enjoy the episode! From the VO booth to billions of impressions! In this extraordinary episode of the VO Boss Podcast, Anne Ganguzza sits down with voice actor, content producer, and creative entrepreneur Hunter Peterson. Hunter breaks down his viral movement, Spirit 2.0 (Let's Buy Spirit), which has captured 19.5 billion impressions and evolved into a legitimate corporate contender in bankruptcy court. Discover how Hunter applied the core mechanics of voice acting, content strategy, and digital storytelling to mobilize an army of investors. He shares the raw, chaotic realities of real-time entrepreneurial pivots, navigating intense SEC regulations, overcoming massive public missteps, and why human accountability is the ultimate secret weapon to beating traditional private equity. What you'll learn in this episode: The precise viral content math Hunter used to test his record-breaking videos. Why Hunter went from hating Spirit Airlines to leading a movement to buy it. The chilling complexities of purchasing an Airline Operating Certificate (AOC) out of bankruptcy. Why you don't need a flawless plan to launch a successful business.

Hammers shares that her business grew from her own Crohn's disease diagnosis in 2018/2019 and frustration with trial-and-error medications, leading her to pursue a doctorate in traditional naturopathy and focus on root-cause wellness through nutrition, lifestyle changes, detox support, and selective supplement recommendations. She emphasizes long, in-depth assessments (often 60–90 minutes or longer), listening, addressing trauma and stress, and guiding clients step-by-step with frequent portal access, while limiting to about five clients a month to maintain connection.

In this episode, I'm sharing a moment from a recent VIP call with a multiple seven-figure CEO where the room was full of smart people and big ideas, and you could feel the overthinking setting in. So I paused everything and asked her one question that brought instant clarity and simplified a two-hour conversation into a single aligned decision. I'm breaking down why the answer to scaling is almost never more, why copying someone else's success backfires when it isn't aligned with you, and the simple practice I keep coming back to for tuning out the noise and trusting what you already know.

Ian Verrender, ABC's Business and Finance Editor, joined Philip Clark on Nightlife to discuss the latest in economic, business and finance news.
To kick off the episode: Remote work was supposed to make jobs more accessible — but for entry-level workers, it might be doing the opposite. New research suggests remote roles are squeezing junior hiring more than AI (for now). Then: why Gen Z has turned sardines into the snack of the summer — and a surprisingly lucrative business. Plus, the Big Picture: Ottawa's fighter jet rethink, a new BC Conservative leader, Alberta wildfires, and more.And we end off with an exclusive interview with Chad Koziel, Associate Vice President AI Product at TD. Check out our notes below:The Peak: Hey, Peak pals, we are joined today with Chad Koziel, who's the associate vice president of Layer Six Gen AI delivery at TD. And we're going to have a really interesting discussion today. There's a lot of talk about Gen AI and how transformative it's going to be, but not a lot of discussion around the actual practical applications of that at the organization level. So that's why I'm really excited to jump in with you today, Chad. Do you want to just take a second and introduce yourself?Chad: Thanks and it's great to be on here, Brett. So I'm Chad Koziel. I build AI. That's what I do. I make it real. I put it in clients' hands and colleagues' hands. And my job is to do so in a way that they love, in a way that they want to engage with, they want to adopt, they want to play with and that ultimately drives a positive impact for them.The Peak: That's awesome. And I imagine a lot of this is happening behind the scenes. So how is AI working at TD right now without clients even knowing that it's there?Chad: So, if you're a TD client, you can expect today that if you call in with an issue, you get helped better, you get helped faster than ever before. You may or may not notice it on a call-by-call basis, but it's there. In the background and across TD, AI capabilities are being deployed to make everything simpler, to make everything faster and specifically to get information to people faster. So that concrete example I gave you, in the background, there's a tool, a virtual assistant that allows a frontline colleague to solve an extremely complex customer query in seconds, empowering them to help you in that moment. Whereas in the past, they might have put you on hold while they looked stuff up. They might instead have put you on hold and contacted one of their colleagues who could help them work through it before coming back to you. So we're seeing a 12% reduction in those types of things. And it's not just in our contact center. So we have these fit-to-purpose, fast, accurate virtual assistants deployed in TD wealth, in branches, in insurance and TD securities. All of these driving, perhaps imperceptible, perhaps perceptible, but nevertheless impactful improvements to the client experience.The Peak: That's a really great case study of how generative AI is helping TD clients and as a TD client myself, that's really great to hear. There's a lot of excitement about this technology, but there are some fears as well about it. You know, Gen AI is here and it's brought a lot of concerns with it about how our lives and jobs are going to change. What do you tell someone who's more concerned than excited about the impact of generative AI?Chad: What I described previously in contact centers is the tip of the iceberg. There's a lot that I have the privilege of having a front row seat to that I can't share publicly, but the impact is enormous, it's profound. And that's leading to companies and people in every sector, in every field to adopt AI, generative AI to improve the quality, speed and availability of service. So maybe, you know, in this conversation with this concerned person, I would then say, seek it out, play, toy with generative AI. Just as an example, like I've used it to dramatically change my reading habits, like in volume and complexity by feeding it things I liked, things I didn't and using Gen AI to take me off the beaten path into areas I may not have previously read from. Authors who are maybe terrific but didn't sell, geographies outside of a western-centric sort of award circuit. And that's a toy example, right? But this is the kind of thing somebody can do to gain some familiarity with it, maybe even comfort. At TD, we put trust at the center of our relationship with clients. And when we move forward with AI, we will do so responsibly, transparently, reliably, safely, all of those things. That's how I try to bring some of this comfort to somebody maybe a little concerned about generative AI.The Peak: That's very helpful. And you mentioned it at the end there, but I would love to just dig into how TD is actually keeping AI safe and secure when handling clients' money and personal information.Chad: That's a great question. First is we don't use AI to handle your money. So AI is probabilistic, it's guessing things and we don't guess where your money should go and frankly no algorithm at TD should do that. You decide where it goes. We might use AI, we will use AI to make it easier for you to do what you want to do with your money. And we should make it a lot easier for you. We will never do it for you. Now, the personal information angle though is pretty interesting. When TD's AI consumes your information, it's in a cloud vault in an area fully and completely controlled by TD that's not accessible to any of our outside partners. And that's not going to change. We are going to protect that information and the handling of that information in a way that preserves your trust. And related to that, like when we do go and use AI, we're going to try to build that in a way that's remarkably human. So as an example, ensuring that empathy, intuition, care are at the heart and frankly quantitatively evaluated so that we know, not just we think, we know that the experience we're giving you with AI is one that you can trust is doing that in a way that feels right to you. The last key point because it's an area of particular focus and one where we have a bunch of research is around trustworthy AI. So TD, we have an entire team of scientists dedicated to evaluating for privacy, security, fairness, accountability, explainability, and not just ensuring that those are all built into the models, to the AI that we release, but also to ensure that that is continuously monitored so that those AIs do not stray over time, giving us the confidence to put them into market and have them be in the hands of our customers and colleagues.The Peak: That's really great to hear and very comforting. Now, we know that AI is going to change banking for Canadians, but what parts of the experience will always need a human touch even as this technology evolves so quickly?Chad: So, a concrete example, let's call it the estates process. So you've just had a terrible loss in your family. And not only do you have a terrible loss, you're dealing with an incredibly complex situation, financially, legally, emotionally. I guarantee you you want somebody sitting across from you helping you through that. But what you want is for that person to be able to work through this quickly with you to not take days or weeks to sort through hundreds of pages of documents. You want them to be able to do that in minutes to give you that trusted advice right away and with their human touch, with empathy, with intuition. That's an example, but we can think of a bunch of similar sort of challenging events, right? Whether it's job loss, retirement planning, thinking of buying a home. You're always going to want a person there and what we feel is that that person will, however, ne...
Episode Summary On this episode of The Brian D. O'Leary Show, Brian sits down with David Nugent, co-founder and CEO of Next League, a technology advisory and solutions provider exclusively servicing the sports industry. Dave's latest book is THE BUSINESS OF SPORTS TECHNOLOGY: How to Make Smart Decisions That Drive Your Organization Forward (Sports Business Journal Publishing, April 14, 2026) They discuss the philosophical shifts behind tech deployment, how artificial intelligence is streamlining sports operations, and the cultural decisions that drive how leagues interact with their fans. From the evolving landscape of regional sports networks to the heavy implementation of analytics in global soccer and the PGA Tour, this episode is a deep dive into the business mechanics of the sports world.

The Philosophy of Sports Tech: Dave's new book focuses on the organizational philosophy of deploying technology rather than just the technology itself. AI and Efficiency: AI functions like a major paradigm shift, akin to the dawn of Web 1.0 or early streaming. Agentic AI systems are evolving beyond conditional logic to manage themselves and adapt to real-time environmental conditions. Ultimately, AI is replacing menial tasks, allowing employees to focus on their highest and best use within an organization. Sports vs. Big Business: Despite their massive cultural footprint, most sports organizations trail industries like retail and healthcare in tech adoption because they are relatively small businesses. Even the NFL, with revenue approaching $25 billion, is not considered a big company by Fortune 100 standards. Optical Tracking & Analytics: Advanced technology is heavily leveraged on the sports operations side of the business. Organizations use motion capture and tracking on elite soccer players like Lionel Messi to duplicate performance gains and aid in injury prevention. Adoption Cultures: Different organizations navigate technology based on their unique internal cultures. The Masters tightly controls its technology through private partnerships, such as with IBM. Conversely, the NBA embraced early social media virality to grow its audience, viewing it as a rising tide rather than cannibalization. The RSN Crisis: The sports revenue model is currently challenged by the dissolution of regional sports networks. The guaranteed affiliate revenue from traditional cable bundles was significantly higher than what direct-to-consumer models could replace in local markets. Golf's Tech Revolution: Golf is uniquely positioned to benefit from technology because action happens across 200-plus acres simultaneously. Innovations like the PGA Tour's ShotLink optically trace the ball within centimeters, leading to features like Every Shot Live, where fans can watch any shot from any player. Adapting for the Future: Ownership dynamics are changing, with private equity and wealthy owners pushing for profit and rule changes. These shifts, such as pitch clocks and larger bases in baseball, are designed to shorten games and attract a younger audience, specifically 18- to 32-year-old fans. They are counting on your complacency. The architects of the engineered decline in both sports and society are betting that you'll nod along while they sanitize your history, erase the Permanent Things, and rig the economic system entirely in their favor. Every day you accept their managed version of reality is another day they win. But you do not have to play their game.

Next Tuesday, June 2nd, is California's 2026 primary election. And there's a lot for voters to decide on. In San Francisco, two competing propositions have become a high-stakes referendum on how the city taxes its largest employers: Prop C and Prop D.KALW recently hosted a live conversation between proponents of both Props C and D. It was co-presented with the San Francisco Public Press, and moderated by their Executive Director, Lila LaHood. The YES on C side was represented by David Harrison, director of policy at the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce. And on the YES on D side was represented by Kim Tabelloni, executive director at the San Francisco Labor Council.In this excerpt we'll hear them explain what they think big business owes to San Francisco, and the people who live here. We start by hearing Kim Tabelloni.

For online fraudsters to be successful they need a web of bank accounts to first receive the money they steal and then to channel it, often out of the country.Some people, often students, willingly let their bank accounts be used in exchange for a small sum of money. For others though, they have no choice, like the victim of sextortion before the courts this month who was blackmailed into letting his Revolut account be used by a crime gang.Drug gangs still use bricks-and-mortar operations to launder money; businesses that are often cash based, from barbers to nail bars. But the volume of cash generated particularly by online fraud needs a more sophisticated banking-based solution.Ten years ago An Garda Síochána was uncovering just 50 cases of money laundering a year in Ireland, in 2025 it was nearly 2,800. So why the huge increase and does the Garda have the resources to deal with this growing category of crime?Irish Times crime and security editor Conor Lally explains why money laundering is now big business in Ireland.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

The story of Murry Gunty is about more than a hockey dad interested in youth sports. It's about a businessman who saw an opportunity to build a lucrative hockey empire and cashed in on it. Gunty claims that his company, Black Bear, took almost all of its profits and reinvested them back into the business, allowing more kids to play hockey. But a nine‑month USA TODAY investigation found that how Gunty built and ran his empire has raised serious concerns among legal experts, including potential abuse of monopoly power and using non-profit teams for private gain. USA TODAY Investigative Reporter Kenny Jacoby joins The Excerpt to share more on this investigation. Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.

99% of all US businesses and almost 46% of American employees are, or work for, a small business. Although a small business is defined as having less than 500 employees, American small businesses are responsible for over 88% of net job growth. That means that America's economy, and the world's economy, rest on the backs of small businesses. The Small Business Administration plays a critical role in the success of small businesses; including those owned and operated by American Veterans. From business planning, strategy design, funding and specialty certification programs the SBA is one of the primary pillars creating and supporting economic impact.In this episode, Fran Racioppi sat down with Bill Briggs, Deputy Administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration, to break down the SBA's 3C's and a D: Capital, Counseling, Contracting and Disaster. Deputy Administrator Briggs explained the real challenges business owners face, especially around cash flow, capital access, and navigating competitive marketplaces. He shared the history of the SBA and its grounding in the Small Business Act of 1953, when the post war period identified that small businesses are not only important to the global economy, but they are crucial to America's national defense. 200,000 service members transition each year from the military into the civilian sector. Some will start businesses as entrepreneurs. Others will enter the workforce. All will need counseling, support and a system designed to give Veterans access to opportunity and the chance to succeed post service. Finally, we address how the SBA is improving accountability, cracking down on fraud, and ensuring programs are delivering real results for those they are designed to support.Highlights0:00 Introduction2:16 Welcome to the Jedburgh Podcast4:01 Small biz is big biz4:57 SBA Team8:13 Access to Capital11:58 Counseling Resources16:14 Access to Contracts22:01 Disaster Loans25:33 The Formation of the SBA27:16 Made in America Loans29:54 Working Families Tax Cut Bill33:10 Stopping Fraud35:51 Importance of Service39:08 Boots to Business52:02 Daily HabitsQuotes“We're taking it to the next level in terms of right sizing, streamlining, and improving the overall performance of the agency because the mission is so important.”“Access to capital is one of the top three issues that are always facing small businesses.”“What we're trying to do under this administrator and this President is trying to improve our systems to scale and deploy more capital effectively with our lending partners and investors.”“I always say to people you have to have that education before you walk in to try to get that loan.”“Your job is to compete to solve the mission, not to say ‘I'm a certification, I deserve something.'”“Having a competitive, innovative national small business ecosystem is not only part of our economic security but our national security.”“We're trying to bring back American manufacturing .”“Our priorities are manufacturing, critical technology, and food production and technology.”“Our economic agenda is centered on fair trade, tax cuts, deregulation, and energy dominance.”“There's something for everyone in the Working Families Tax Cut Bill.”“We have a zero tolerance policy for fraud.”“The day you start your business is not the day you get paid.”“We're overhauling how we deliver our boots to business.”The Jedburgh Podcast is brought to you by OneBrief; enabling military leaders to make innovative, informed and deliberate decisions faster than ever before.

College may be one of pop culture's favorite settings, but behind the scenes, universities are serious intellectual property owners. Michael Snyder and Joseph Gushue explore how colleges use trademark, copyright, and licensing to protect logos, mascots, colors, slogans, and other brand assets across athletics, merchandise, and media. Using Rudy, Blue Chips, and The Social Network as touchpoints, they also examine how NIL rights have changed college sports, and where the line remains between an athlete's personal brand and a school's protected IP. In this episode: How colleges use trademark, copyright, and licensing to protect their brands Why quality control and style guides are essential to university licensing programs How college merchandising became a multi-billion-dollar industry The key boundary between NIL rights and school-owned intellectual property Bottom line: college brands are more than traditions.
