Heart Health Month opens with a powerful, eye-opening conversation on cholesterol, root-cause healing, and whole-person wellness. Dr. Georgia Nabs explore why cholesterol is so misunderstood, the real story behind statins, and how inflammation, blood sugar, liver health, and lifestyle choices all intersect to shape heart health. From functional testing and advanced diagnostics to simple, practical daily shifts, this episode reframes what it truly means to care for your heart. Blending science, compassion, and lived experience, the conversation invites listeners to move beyond fear-based medicine and into empowered, informed, and proactive wellness—where education becomes the foundation for lasting health and vitality.  Key Takeaways:   True heart health begins by understanding root causes, not just managing symptoms or lab numbers.  Cholesterol is more complex than "good" and "bad," and context matters more than fear-based assumptions.  Inflammation, blood sugar balance, and liver health play a central role in cardiovascular wellness.  Empowered patients ask better questions and become active participants in their healing journey.  Sustainable wellness comes from education, consistency, and small daily choices that compound over time.  About Dr. Georgia Nab:  Dr. Georgia Nab entered the chiropractic industry in 1992 by owning a chiropractic clinic in Wichita, Kansas.

In Episode 175 of Brad & Abbey Live, Brad Zerbo and Abbey Zerbo react to a fast-moving news cycle driven by events in Minnesota and the chaotic media response that followed. The episode focuses on conflicting reports, emotional overreactions, and the rapid spread of misinformation across social platforms. Brad and Abbey break down how narratives form before facts are established, why corrections rarely receive the same attention as outrage, and how public perception is shaped in real time. The conversation also touches on law enforcement scrutiny, political posturing, and the incentive structures that reward sensationalism over accuracy. Throughout the episode, the hosts emphasize the importance of slowing down, verifying information, and resisting pressure to react before clarity emerges. Blending sharp commentary with humor and real-time analysis, Episode 175 captures the confusion, contradictions, and media whiplash that define moments when narratives outrun the truth.

Here’s a question that’ll change how you think about this profession forever: What’s the one moment that reveals you’re built for sales success? For most people, that moment never comes. They stumble into sales, struggle with the stereotypes, and either quit or spend their entire career fighting against what they think selling is supposed to be. But for those of us who get it, there’s a moment of clarity so powerful it changes everything. Mine happened in high school when I was chasing a girl and ended up on the yearbook staff. Thirty days later, I handed over $3,800 in checks while everyone else struggled to hit their $300 quota. The Sales Crack Moment When Mr. Hall at Hall’s Hardware Store wrote me that first check for a yearbook ad after I had done little more than ask outright for the money, something clicked. This wasn’t complicated. Walk in, shake hands, present value, and people give you money. While my classmates were paralyzed by the same stereotypes you hear today (“I’m not a salesperson”), I was out there having conversations. That’s all prospecting really is. Talking to people. The gasp in that room when I revealed my numbers? That was better than the money. That was the competitive fire igniting. That was me realizing I could outwork, outsell, and out-earn anyone if I just committed to the process. The Discipline Problem Most Sellers Miss Here’s what nobody tells you about sales success: It’s not about talent. It’s not about charisma. It’s about ruthless execution of proven processes. By the time I was 21 or 22, I was making $300,000 in the early nineties. That’s equivalent to making close to a million today. Not because I was special, but because I understood something fundamental that most people never figure out: The more people you talk with, the more you sell. And here’s the beautiful part. There are lots of people to go talk with. The pipeline never runs dry if you’re willing to fill it. The Three Non-Negotiables for Modern Sellers The future of selling is blending. Not choosing between video and phone and in-person. Blending all of them based on one critical question: What communication channel gives me the highest probability of capturing my desired outcome at the lowest cost of time, energy, and money? When I started selling, we had two channels. Maybe three if you count snail mail. Phone and in-person. That’s it. Today? You’ve got a dozen ways to connect. WhatsApp lets you text, call, and video chat almost instantly. The options are endless. But here’s where Gen Z sellers (and honestly, every generation) screw this up: They get single-siloed. “I’m only good at email.” “I only do video calls.” “I hate the phone.” That mindset is killing your income potential. You need to be good at everything. Master every channel. Because the channel doesn’t matter. The outcome does. Synchronous Beats Asynchronous Every Single Time Here’s the second non-negotiable to sales success: Stop hiding behind asynchronous communication. We do deals in a synchronous world. Real-time conversations. Phone calls. Video meetings. Face-to-face interactions. If you think you can close business through email threads and text messages, you’re delusional. Why? Because robots can write better emails than you can. AI can craft more persuasive text messages. But sales is the ultimate human career in the age of AI precisely because of the human connection required in synchronous conversations. Lead with phone calls. Get face-to-face when the deal size justifies it. Use video when it makes sense. But always, always prioritize real-time conversations over digital hide-and-seek. Ask Questions and Actually Listen The third non-negotiable is mastering the art of asking great questions and listening to the answers. People make five decisions before they buy from you: Do I like you? Do you listen to me? Do you make me feel important? Do you get me and my problems? Do I trust and believe you? Notice what’s not on that list? Your product features. Your company’s awards. Your clever sales pitch. They’re evaluating you. Your ability to connect. Your capacity to understand. Your commitment to making them feel important. And the only way to get five affirmative answers to those questions is through synchronous conversations where you ask intelligent questions and actually listen to what they’re telling you. The Make It Rain Principle When Mr. Rouse made me editor of the yearbook after I brought in $3,800, I learned something that shaped my entire career: When you can make it rain, you can get anything you want. That principle holds true whether you’re selling yearbook ads in high school or enterprise software to Fortune 500 companies. Revenue solves problems. Performance opens doors. Results create opportunities. Most people in sales stumble into it. They take the job because it was available. They stick with it because the money’s decent. But they never commit to mastering the craft. The question isn’t whether sales chooses you. The question is whether you choose sales. Whether you commit to being good at every communication channel. Whether you prioritize synchronous conversations over digital convenience. Whether you master the art of asking questions and listening. Those fundamentals never change. The technology evolves. The channels multiply. But the core truth remains: Talk to more people, in real time, with genuine curiosity about their problems, and you’ll make more money than you ever thought possible. That’s how you achieve sales success. That’s how you go from yearbook ads to seven figures. That’s how you make it rain.

Two days of intensive training where you’ll learn the exact systems and processes that turn ordinary sellers into top performers.

Apple Music InstagramFacebookBioPran is a pop artist from Thailand who draws inspiration from love, one of the most timeless and universal themes in music. His latest single, 'Till The End (For You), celebrates the idea that true love is always worth fighting for. Blending pop and R&B with subtle EDM influences, the track delivers both emotional depth and an uplifting energy.  The song came together during a period of creative exploration. While Pran was still discovering the direction he wanted to take with his album, his manager shared several reference tracks that helped guide the process. Inspired by those songs, Pran began shaping his own sound, and the hook quickly became something he could not shake. In the chorus, he sings:  Cause I know you would fight for me Cause I see that you trusted me Cause I saw that you care for me  The track captures the strength and security of real love and the fear of losing something that feels unbreakable. Its production creates an energetic, comforting atmosphere, while Pran's light and airy vocals reflect the weightless feeling of a love that feels endless.  “When you have love, you have to fight for it,” Pran says.  As a songwriter, Pran often explores the many layers of love. His previous single, All I Need Is Love, focused on heartbreak, while 'Till The End (For You) continues the story from a different perspective. This new release represents the next chapter, where love has been found and is now something worth protecting.  “This song is connected to my previous single because while that one was about heartbreak, the character found love in the end,” he explains. “Now the character is in a fulfilling relationship and he's continuing to fight for it.”  This marks only Pran's second official single, and he is excited to finally share it with listeners. While he initially felt some anxiety releasing his earlier work, he also felt a sense of relief and freedom once the music reached the world. Being able to release the music he truly envisioned and present it authentically has been a rewarding experience.  “I love the freedom of being able to release music without any restrictions,” he says.  Pran's album is set for release later this year. While love will remain a central theme in his music, he also plans to explore new subjects and expand his creative range.  “I hope people enjoy the music and have a great time listening to it,” he adds.  'Till The End (For You) is available now on all major streaming platforms. Fans can follow Pran on his social channels to discover more of his love-driven music.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Blending indie with equal parts folk-rock and traditional singer-songwriter, Holtby crafts songs that lyrically deal with everyday life; love, loss, the passage of time and reflection. “Pretending” covers all of these bases. “This is a song about giving yourself the advice you’d want to give others” says Holtby.  “There are certain inevitabilities in life that we all must face in one form or another. I’d found myself asking the same questions for a long time, and realizing nobody was going to save me unless I faced the facts and made these choices for myself. It’s about getting over it… whatever it might be.” The song was produced by Holtby and longtime drummer and musical partner  Terrence Craig Toutant at Matthew’s home studio in Warkworth, Ontario with additional production by  Rob DeBoer. It was mixed by Chad Skinner at Half Moon Audio in Toronto.  Photo Credit: Kendra Taylor Matthew Holtby Links : WebsiteSpotify Artist PageApple Music Artist PageYouTubeBandcampInstagramTikTokFacebookBlueskyX Checkout my YouTube Channel with long form interviews from the Subversives | the History of Lowest of the Low. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9d1VSeOHYuxFWKuRdmn9j8UTW6AHwS_fAlso my Weekly Tour Vlog is up an live on the YouTubeshttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9d1VSeOHYuwphwhc4zd0VgY66f1OUQZp Pledge monthly with Patreon https://www.patreon.com/apologueShop Apologue products at http://apologue.ca/shopCheck out new Four Square Here: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/brighton-beach-ephttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/seven-oh-sevenhttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/industry-at-home–21st-anniversary-remix-remasteredhttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/when-weeks-were-weekends

Digestion changes. Bloating appears out of nowhere. Sleep feels lighter. Inflammation lingers. And no one ever told us these systems might all be connected. I sat down with Cynthia Thurlow, a nurse practitioner and intermittent fasting expert, to talk about a topic that is still vastly underexplored in women's health: the gut microbiome during perimenopause and menopause.   So many women are told their digestive symptoms, inflammation, mood changes, or recurrent infections are just "part of aging." What Cynthia makes clear is that these experiences are deeply rooted in physiology and that when we understand what's happening, we're no longer powerless. This conversation matters because it replaces dismissal with clarity and fear with context. We examine how this topic shows up in daily life: - Why declining estrogen affects gut barrier integrity, immune response, and inflammation - How "leaky gut" can contribute to bone loss, autoimmune risk, and metabolic changes - The connection between gut health, mood, anxiety, and neurotransmitter signaling - Why fiber and short-chain fatty acids become more important in perimenopause and menopause - How fermented foods can support microbiome diversity and recovery after stress, illness, or antibiotics - The gut–vaginal microbiome connection and why improving one can support the other - How chronic stress and unprocessed trauma can accelerate hormonal aging and menopause timing   About Cynthia Thurlow: Cynthia Thurlow, NP is a nurse practitioner, intermittent fasting expert, and educator specializing in women's health, hormones, and longevity. Her work bridges functional and conventional medicine, with a focus on helping women understand the physiological changes of perimenopause and menopause through a science-based, compassionate lens.  

Dave’s back from NAMM 2026 and has a little something to share about that. Actually three little somethings, so that’s where we start. But there’s more to say about that, and it’s not yet time, so we’ll extend the NAMM discussions into next week (and beyond?). For today, well, you don't become the Sauce Boss by chasing a gimmick. You hear how Bill Wharton built a real, working-musician career by leaning hard into what felt natural to him, starting with a Datil pepper, a pot of gumbo, and a simple idea: turn the gig into a gathering. From cooking onstage on New Year's Eve 1989 to feeding hundreds of people at festivals and never charging a dime for the food, Bill shows how blending music and food transformed shows from transactions into shared experiences. By creating a kitchen onstage, he stopped entertaining people just long enough to take their money and run, and instead built something with a life of its own, something that keeps audiences leaning in and coming back. As the conversation unfolds, you trace Bill's path from top-40 bar gigs to one-man-band independence, full-band firepower, and stages as far-flung as Saudi Arabia. You hear why learning your strengths and ruthlessly discarding what doesn't matter is not selfish, it's survival. From dynamics, gear choices, and in-ear monitors to the lessons behind Blind Boy Billy, Bill makes the case that longevity comes from clarity, connection, and doing your thing without apology. The message for working musicians is direct and empowering: build the show you want to play, build the life that supports it, and keep showing up ready to give.

Spicy and flavorful. People would eat all the sauce at his house So he made Liquid Summer hot sauce But he wanted to sell hot sauce at gigs. December 31, 1989 – made a pot of gumbo on stage to demo the hot sauce No one would ever have to pay for for my gumbo… 240,000 bowls later, here we are! 00:23:26 Blending music and food. It's better than entertaining people, taking the money, and run! 00:25:12 Food and music are good together Every good party has everyone hanging out in the kitchen Bill creates the kitchen on stage 00:26:33 That first Sauce Boss gig 00:28:16 It has a life of its own and takes care of itself It took 3.5 hours to know that this was going to work long-term 00:30:38 Bill: “Always looking for something distinctively mine…something unique” It's hard to do your own thing. 00:33:15 The typical sauce boss gig means cooking for 100 (or more) people 400 people at a festival (it took TWO pots of gumbo) 00:35:07 From Florida to Saudi Arabia Sauce Boss plays/cooks at an Air Force base in Saudi Arabia 00:37:09 A soul-shouting picnic of Rock and Roll Brotherhood One or two 75-minute sets The show never ends 00:40:16 Learn, and then KNOW your strengths Started playing top-40 gigs as a kid …and then realized that's a rat trap. Bill made a point of putting only the stuff that matters to him in his day…and his show. Being “greedy” about putting my thing out there. If I can do this, you can do this Discard the things you don't enjoy, embrace the things you do. Story Time, it turns out! 00:43:23 Jimmy Buffett wrote a song about the Sauce Boss – “I Will Play For Gumbo” Playing a gig at Jimmy Buffett's club in New Orleans… and Jimmy was there! “This is the best (bar) band I've seen in a long time.” 00:47:13 Where did “Sauce Boss” come from?

In this January 26th episode of the RattlerGator Report, JB White opens with a candid personal update, confronting health challenges and the hard decisions that come with them. From there, the conversation expands rapidly into the accelerating pace of global events. JB breaks down General Flynn's recent warnings, unpacking unrest within China, the instability surrounding Xi Jinping, and what potential internal fractures could mean for U.S. foreign policy and global power dynamics. The episode explores America's strategic posture across Europe and the Indo-Pacific, including shifting alliances, the role of Greece, and the broader implications of energy, technology, and military positioning. JB also examines the failures of international institutions, the decline of old power structures, and why patience and strategic restraint may matter more than reaction. Blending personal reflection with sharp geopolitical analysis, this episode captures a moment where health, leadership, and world events collide — and nothing appears to be slowing down.

In this episode of the By Any Means Coaches Podcast, Coleman Ayers breaks down what creativity actually is—and more importantly, how coaches can systematically develop it. Rather than treating creativity as an innate talent or mysterious gift, the episode reframes it as a skill rooted in deep understanding, problem-solving, and exposure to diverse ideas. Through personal experience, coaching education, and the constraints-led approach, Coleman outlines why creativity is best built on strong foundations of knowledge, curiosity, and intentional learning.The episode also explores practical ways coaches can unlock creativity in their daily work: aligning with the right people, starting with clear end goals, using constraints to force innovation, and diversifying how they think both inside and outside of basketball. From studying other sports and disciplines to embracing feedback and removing the fear of judgment, this conversation offers a framework for coaches who want to move beyond recycled drills and begin creating more adaptive, engaging, and effective learning environments.Episode Timestamps00:00 – Introduction and why creativity matters in coaching 00:51 – Why creativity is hard to explain but critical to develop 01:49 – Balancing practical takeaways with deeper education 02:38 – Creativity as intelligence having fun 03:26 – The role of learning and foundational knowledge 04:11 – The danger of creativity without understanding 04:54 – Letting intelligence “have fun” 05:28 – Aligning with creative people and environments 06:45 – Avoiding fixed-mindset coaching circles 07:42 – How collaboration sparks new ideas 08:47 – Learning from different thinking styles 09:35 – Don't fear judgment or “bad” ideas 10:03 – Starting with the end goal, not the drill 10:45 – Working backward to design better solutions 11:48 – Why many creative drills miss the real problem 12:30 – Using the constraints-led approach for coach development 13:09 – Practical constraint examples for coaches 13:39 – How natural constraints build adaptability 14:34 – Applying lessons from travel and unfamiliar environments 15:07 – Training coaches the same way we train players 15:53 – Creating just to be creative 16:43 – Coach-to-coach experimentation sessions 17:19 – Exploring safely within trusted environments 17:57 – Avoiding stagnation with long-term athletes 18:24 – Diversifying your mind beyond basketball 19:43 – Learning through conversation and observation 20:24 – Watching basketball through a creative lens 21:11 – Studying different levels and styles of play 22:07 – Learning from other sports and disciplines 23:44 – Blending artistic and scientific thinking 24:46 – Systemizing creativity without killing it 25:55 – Fear of judgment as a creativity killer 26:24 – Owning ideas and building confidence 27:46 – Creating buy-in and embracing feedback 28:24 – Asking others to critique and improve your work 29:18 – Final thoughts on innovation and creative growthCoaching Resources: https://www.byanymeansbasketball.comBAM Blueprint Book: https://www.byanymeansbasketball.com/bam-blueprintIf this episode challenged the way you think about creativity as a coach, share it with someone who's stuck recycling the same drills.

In his debut book We Survived the Night, artist and writer Julian Brave NoiseCat takes readers on a complex journey of Indigenous experience stemming from a childhood rich with culture and contradictions. Reeling from his father — a Secwépemc and St'at'imc artist haunted by a troubled past — abandoning his family, NoiseCat and his non-Native mother found themselves embraced and invigorated by their community. Supported by the urban Native population in Oakland, California and family on the Canim Lake Indian Reserve in British Columbia, NoiseCat was able to immerse himself in Native history and culture. Doing so bridged the gaps in his knowledge of his father's past and their stories and sent him on a journey to further his understanding of his people and himself. Told in the style of a "Coyote Story" — a legend about the trickster forefather of NoiseCat's people, revered for his wit and mocked for his tendency to self-destruct — We Survived the Night brings a traditional artform nearly annihilated by colonization back to life on the page. NoiseCat explores his personal origins amidst recounting on-the-ground efforts to correct the erasure of Indigenous peoples across the continent. Over years spent researching and developing his voice as a storyteller, NoiseCat grapples with the generational trauma of North America's First Peoples and learns of the cultural, environmental, and political movements reshaping the future.  We Survived the Night dives into examples of Native endurance and modern achievements that NoiseCat studied in his journalistic endeavors — the historic ascent of the first Native cabinet secretary in the United States and the first Indigenous sovereign of Canada; the colonial origins and limits of racial ideology and Indian identity of the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina; hauling the golden eggs of an imperiled fish out of the sea alongside the Tlingit of Sitka, Alaska. Blending history and mythology, research and personal memoir, NoiseCat seeks to reclaim a culture stripped away by years of colonization and the family ties that were severed in his youth. His voiced honesty and years of efforts link the past to the present, the community to the individual in a powerfully intimate depiction of contemporary Indigenous life. Julian Brave NoiseCat is a writer, Oscar-nominated filmmaker, champion powwow dancer, and student of Salish art and history. His writing has appeared in publications, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The New Yorker. NoiseCat has been recognized with numerous awards including the 2022 American Mosaic Journalism Prize and many National Native Media Awards. He was a finalist for the Livingston Award and multiple Canadian National Magazine Awards, and was named to the TIME100 Next list in 2021. His first documentary, Sugarcane, was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary. Directed alongside Emily Kassie, Sugarcane premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, where NoiseCat and Kassie won the Directing Award in U.S. Documentary. NoiseCat is a proud member of the Canim Lake Band Tsq̓éscen̓ and descendant of the Líl̓wat Nation of Mount Currie. Joshua L. Reid (citizen of the Snohomish Indian Nation) is an associate professor of American Indian Studies and the John Calhoun Smith Memorial Endowed Associate Professor of History at the University of Washington, where he directs the Center for the Study of the Pacific Northwest.

Some invitations are impossible to refuse... In this harrowing episode of Drew Blood's Dark Tales, a seemingly simple reunion opens the door to something ancient, intimate, and profoundly wrong. What begins as discomfort slowly curdles into obsession, corruption, and a sickness that refuses to remain contained within the body—or the mind. Blending cosmic dread with visceral body horror, tonight's tale explores what happens when desperation meets ritual, when betrayal wears a familiar face, and when nausea becomes something far more literal than a passing sensation.

This episode of Wise_N_Nerdy brings together fatherhood, fandom, and mental health as Charles and Joe are joined by special guest Todd Sarner, a licensed psychotherapist, parenting coach, and the founder of Transformative Parenting. Blending nerdy fun with meaningful conversation, this episode is a perfect example of how pop culture and real-life parenting lessons can coexist. The show kicks off with the Question of the Week: “If you could have any two IPs do a crossover, which two would you choose?” The conversation quickly spirals into delightful chaos as the hosts imagine dream mashups like Star Trek meeting The Lord of the Rings, Quantum Leap crossing paths with Doctor Who, and even Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles teaming up with Demon Slayer. It's imaginative, passionate, and exactly the kind of nerdy debate fans love. As tradition demands, the roll of the dice sends the crew straight into a round of truly unfunny bad dad jokes—the kind that hurt to hear and somehow hurt even more to tell. Groans are plentiful, dignity is lost, and the tone is perfectly set for what comes next. In the “Daddy, Tell Me A Story” segment, Todd shares his personal and professional journey into therapy, opening up about what led him to create Transformative Parenting and why helping families navigate emotional growth has become his life's work. It's a heartfelt look at how experience, empathy, and intention shape better parents and healthier kids. That naturally leads into the “How Do I…?” segment, where Charles, Joe, and Todd dig into the benefits of therapy—especially for children. They discuss breaking stigmas, building emotional tools early, and how therapy can be a proactive support rather than a last resort. It's an encouraging reminder for parents that seeking help is a strength, not a failure, and a powerful way to Find your FAMdom through support, connection, and understanding. The dice then decree it's time for the Parliament of Papas, featuring a legendary parenting tale of epic revenge. The hosts unpack a story where a father proves a point by allowing his kids to “loot” his brother's house—turning a teachable moment into a hilarious and unforgettable lesson about consequences. To close things out, the episode dives into “What Are You Nerding Out About?” Joe offers a balanced and thoughtful take on the newly released Hytale, highlighting both its strengths and noticeable flaws while expressing excitement for its future potential. Charles passionately rants and raves about Tron: Ares, while Todd nerds out over the growing power of AI as a transformative tool—and shares some personal joy by talking about his upcoming nuptials. It's an episode packed with laughs, insight, and heart—bringing together expert parenting wisdom and unapologetic fandom in a way only Wise_N_Nerdy can.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Parham for one of the most vulnerable conversations I've ever recorded.We explore how Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome doesn't just live in history—but in habits, coping mechanisms, and quiet forms of self-hatred we normalize every day. I openly unpack my own relationship with smoking—not as a moral failure, but as a learned survival behavior shaped by unexamined agreements with myself.Blending insights from Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome and the audiobook The Four Agreements, this conversation moves beyond theory into embodiment—what it actually looks like to heal in real time. We talk about how self-hatred can disguise itself as comfort, routine, or “just the way I am,” and how vulnerability becomes the gateway to self-respect, clarity, and freedom.This episode isn't about shame.It's about awareness.It's about unlearning.It's about choosing to live in integrity with yourself—one honest moment at a time.If you're ready to listen deeply, reflect courageously, and begin rewriting the agreements you've unknowingly been living by, this conversation is for you.

In this bonus episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B delivers an unfiltered, culturally sharp conversation that moves fluidly between current events, social critique, and media accountability, opening with the realities of an impending ice storm and behind-the-scenes studio updates that set the tone for the episode [00:00]. From there, the discussion pivots into the viral backlash surrounding Mr. Tenderism, using the controversy to unpack deeper issues of ownership, branding, and representation within the food industry and how performative allyship often overshadows meaningful inclusion [02:51]. The episode then turns toward higher education, as Mandii addresses the ongoing Morris Brown College controversy, including the reinstatement of Dr. Kevin James, and examines what this moment signals about institutional leadership, accountability, and public trust [09:13]. Continuing the conversation on representation, Mandii weighs in on the polarized reactions to the release of the new Autistic Barbie, exploring why visibility matters, how intent can be misinterpreted, and where genuine advocacy can get lost in outrage cycles [12:00]. The episode closes with a broader critique of celebrity culture, authenticity, and performative behavior, as Mandii voices frustration with media optics and the ongoing tension between visibility, validation, and real impact in today’s cultural landscape [18:05]. Blending timely commentary with critical insight, this bonus episode offers a thoughtful examination of representation, media narratives, and societal expectations in a moment-driven digital age.

This week on No Simple Road, we head north of the border to connect with Dylan Stone and Jesse Cobb from The Unfaithful Servants, the genre-bending roots outfit straight out of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Blending folk, bluegrass, old-time, and a healthy dose of irreverent spirit, this band brings a sound that's as playful as it is deeply rooted. Aaron, Mel, and Apple sit down with the crew to talk about the origin of the band, the stories behind the songs, and what it means to build a musical life on an island where community and creativity go hand in hand. We dig into their songwriting process, the push and pull between tradition and experimentation, and how humor and honesty shape their approach to roots music. The conversation flows through touring life in Western Canada, the power of DIY scenes, and the importance of staying connected to the people who show up — night after night — to share the experience. The Unfaithful Servants reflect on how place influences sound, how collaboration fuels longevity, and why music is still one of the most powerful tools we have for connection. This episode is full of laughter, insight, and that unmistakable feeling you get when musicians are creating from a place of truth rather than trend. If you love roots music with edge, folk and bluegrass with personality, and discovering bands who are carving their own path, this one is for you.

In this episode, Travis and Eric, his producer, take the mic to explore the skills that actually move the needle when it comes to making more money and keeping it. Blending sharp humor, AI-generated “comedy,” and real-world experience from his days in door-to-door sales, Travis breaks down why skills like sales, discipline, and learning itself matter far more than traditional schooling when it comes to building wealth. On this episode we talk about: *   Why AI still can't beat real human humor (yet) when it comes to money jokes*   The number one money-making skill Travis credits for changing his life: sales*   How discipline works like a muscle and why most people misunderstand it*   Why trying to change “everything at once” almost always fails*   The crucial meta-skill schools don't teach: how to actually learn Top 3 Takeaways 1.  Sales is one of the highest-leverage skills you can learn because it increases your confidence to take financial risks and bounce back if things don't work out.2.  Discipline is not a personality trait; it is a skill built over time through habits and systems that reduce how much “willpower” you need each day.3.  The most important skill missing from traditional education is the skill of learning itself—knowing how to acquire, process, and apply new information quickly. Notable Quotes *   “Sales is the thing that enables you to have more confidence to take more risks—which is also something that can make you good money.”*   “Discipline is a skill. People think some are just ‘super disciplined,' but they've simply worked on that skill long enough to install better habits.”*   “School is great at giving you information, but it's terrible at teaching you how to actually learn.” Connect with Travis Chapell: *   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell *   Other: https://travischappell.com *   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell*   Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/traviscchappell  Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.  Capture leads, nurture them, and close more deals—all from one powerful platform.  Get an extended free trial at gohighlevel.com/travis Learn more about your ad choices.

The unifying youth culture across the Arab region is characterized by a proud new Arab identity and the changing standards of beauty with the rise of "Arab beauty" (A beauty), which celebrates Arab features and aesthetics. The founder of Mille World and Mille Creative, Sofia Guellaty, talks about her journey launching the first Arab youth platform in the Arab world, the role of media professionals as "editors of conversations," and the emergence of a new, proud Arab identity among both Gen Z and millennials. She discusses how she uses fashion and pop culture as a tool for "soft power" to talk about liberation, representation, and diversity, moving away from superficial content. She reflects on her early career, her shift from being fascinated by the West to "unbashedly proud to be Arab," and the challenges faced by Arab talent, including visa issues and the lack of an Arab-centric market. The conversation also delves into how her platform, Mille World, aims to address the lack of authentic Arab youth representation by giving a voice to young creatives who want to define their own stories, not be perceived through a "western gaze". Explore Mille World
