This is a Vintage Selection from 2006The BanterThe Guys talk about a big change in NYC restaurant ownership as well as the implications of invasive grass.The ConversationThe Restaurant Guys welcome William Alexander to hear about the trials of being a home gardener and the shocking realization that his home-grown tomatoes cost him $64. The Inside TrackThe Guys have an amusing conversation with Bill discussing the battles with deer, groundhogs and the neighbor's cat.Bill: My latest battle was with the neighbor's cats who insisted on peeing on my organic lettuce. Mark: That's still organic. Bill: Well, you know, I think I found a way to get, get even with them. I started to use their litter box. But I think the moral is that no matter what you do, animals are going to get into your garden because of the simple truth: You may be smarter, but they've got more time. -William Alexander on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2006BioWilliam Alexander, spent nearly four decades as director of technology at a psychiatric research institute.Having broken into writing with the critically-acclaimed, bestselling memoir The $64 Tomato, Bill wrote Ten Tomatoes that Changed the World.

What does it really take to build products that drive results, and how can experimentation transform your business? In this episode of the Product for Product Podcast, we sit down with Erin Weigel, author of Design for Impact, Advisor at ABsmartly and Principal Designer, to unpack the essential lessons from her new book and her years of experience at Booking.com.Erin shares why Design for Impact was the book that needed to be written, not just for designers, but for anyone looking to grow their business or product through scientific experimentation and system thinking. Drawing on her journey from internal talks to conference keynotes, Erin reveals how she developed the Conversion Design Process and the “flying wheel” visual that demystifies how businesses really work.Erin also discusses why experimentation requires bravery from leadership, how to get buy-in without waiting for permission, and why simple, proven tools often outperform complex processes. Join Matt and Moshe as we dived with Erin into:Her background and how she got to write the bookThe step-by-step process Erin used at Booking.com—and how it can be generalized to any organizationHow to apply experimentation and A/B testing beyond the design teamWhy ownership in experimentation should be shared, not siloed, to strengthen outcomesThe counterintuitive truths behind successful organizations (and why most common assumptions are wrong)How to start building a culture of experimentation, even if your company isn't there yetThe importance of “testing like you're wrong” and being honest with what the data showsPractical frameworks like the 60-40 split (60% low-effort experiments, 40% long-term bets) to prioritize learning and impactAnd so much more!You can connect with Erin at:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erindoesthings/ Website: erindoesthings.com Design for Impact book: https://erindoesthings.com/design-for-impact/ You can find the podcast's page, and connect with Matt and Moshe on Linkedin:Product for Product Podcast - linkedin.com/company/product-for-product-podcastMatt Green - linkedin.com/in/mattgreenproduct/Moshe Mikanovsky - linkedin.com/in/mikanovsky/Note: any views mentioned in the podcast are the sole views of our hosts and guests, and do not represent the products mentioned in any way.Please leave us a review and feedback ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Since Scientology gave birth to Silva Mind Control, Leadership or Mind Dynamics and est, in the 1960s, there has been an industry in 'large group awareness trainings' (LGATs), including The Forum, Landmark Education, Lifespring and Tony Robbins. Wikipedia tells us LGATs 'may compromise participants' mental wellbeing'. Dr John Hunter realized that the LGAT he attended at his boss's request claimed the symptoms of hypomania (excessive elation) as 'transformations'. After two decades of research, John has published an excellent book suggesting that LGATs and many other forms of conversion use stress and humiliation to generate the brain's reward chemical dopamine which is then released in a gush of elation - hypomania. Studies have shown that these euphoric states are transient and often result in broken marriages and careers as well as mental breakdowns and even psychosis.John's new book is a vital insight into the ways in which even highly intelligent people's critical thinking is bypassed. He argues that many religious conversions may be based in this simple neurological process.

Susan L Combs, Gen X, is the founder of Pancakes for Roger, Inc., a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to serving those who have served our nation. She joins us today to talk about the non-profit that emerged from a humble request by Susan's father, the late Major General Roger E Combs, during his Hospice care. His simple wish for pancakes sparked a movement, which became a book and a keynote address. Now, it stands as a non-profit organization. While the pancakes themselves couldn't be served due to care constraints, the essence of his request transcended the breakfast table. It's a touching reminder to cherish life's small joys and express gratitude for them. In 2005, Susan L Combs embarked on her entrepreneurial path, founding Combs & Company at the ageof 26. Combs & Company has evolved into a trusted ally for businesses that diverge from the conventional profiles favored by insurance carriers, catering particularly to sectors like entertainment, food, and international companiesestablishing operations in the U.S. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Susan's background for her book and why she wrote her bookThe 3 facets of life.Monetary worth.Elements of a good relationship.Seeing signs.February is pancake month. Quotable Moments:“Have some pancakes for Roger and remember all the blessings in your life.”“If is helped you in your life, it'll help someone in their life, too.”“No is a complete sentence.”“My plate is as full as I like it.”“Nothing wrong withsaying no to someone to say yes to yourself.” Three Episode Takeaways: 1. There are 3 facets of life Susan's dad offered that can make an impact: The person you're with The thing you do for a living The place you liveAnd if you're happy with 3 out of 3 or 2 out of3, you're living the golden life but if you're only happy with 1 or none of those things, you're the only person that can change it. 2. Susan encourages all of us to know our worth and when it's time to walk away. She's talking about our monetary worth per hour to help us determine your working hour. Saying no is so much easier because you know the cost.3. At the end of the day, all women need to know they're enough. As Viola Davis said: “You need to be the love of your life.” Episode Resources: Book, Pancakes for Roger:A Mentorship Guide for Slaying Dragons:https://www.amazon.com/Pancakes-Roger-Mentorship-Slaying-Dragons Special Events Coming Up: Annual February pancake campaign.

Stress and burnout are common and pervasive problems in our society. As today's guest Dr. Aditi Nerurkar writes in her new bookThe 5 Resets: Rewire Your Brain and Body for Less Stress and More Resilience — which came out January 16 — “Stress and burnout aren't the exception anymore, they're the rule.” It turns out that we're all trapped in the stress paradox, where we are completely isolated in our togetherness with stress. Today on the show we talk about that, as well as the five resets she outlines in her book: No. 1, Get Clear on What Matters Most; No. 2: Find Quiet in a Noisy World; No. 3: Sync Your Brain and Your Body; No. 4: Come Up for Air; and No. 5: Bring Your Best Self Forward. We pack so much in today's episode, including explaining both the multitasking myth and the resilience myth; how not all stress is bad stress, necessarily; how critical digital boundaries are, as being hyperconnected is actually being disconnected; what popcorn brain is; and so much more. It's a really interesting conversation, and we leave it with hope that no one's stress is too far gone to be fixed. That's right — no one! Dr. Nerurkar is a Harvard stress expert, nationally sought after speaker, and television correspondent, and writes that these five small but mighty mindset shifts can help us all overcome our stress. She is an expert in stress, burnout, resilience, and mental health, and her work has been featured inThe New York Times, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, Good Morning America, The Today Show, and NPR. She found that, even though stress plays a role in nearly 80 percent of doctor visits, only 3 percent of doctors actually offer stress management tips; her work closes that gap. If you're ready to get rid of stress and burnout for good, this episode is for you. The 5 Resets: Rewire Your Brain and Body for Less Stress and More Resilienceby Dr. Aditi Nerurkar
On the 50th episode of Secret Ops, we talk with Joey Cofone, CEO of Baronfig and author of the bestselling book The Laws of Creativity. This episode is an absolute favorite of mine with my favorite person in the world, so it's not one to miss. I've always believed that operators are creatives. It's a vital part of our work. Joey takes that thought a step further and believes that everyone possesses innate creativity. The key is in learning how to reignite it, which is what his book is all about.In this episode, we discuss:Why everyone is creative, no matter their professionThe decline in creative thinking from childhood to adulthoodThe process and stages of writing a bookPro-tips on how to author a bookThe impact of parenthood on rediscovering creativity
Kevin Hazzard Author of A Thousand Naked Strangers and American Sirens (you can find these on Amazon or wherever books are sold). You can find Kevin Hazzard at KevinHazzard.comKevin talks about the story Jesus told of the good Samaritan as really the first example of EMS. Jesus tells this story in response to a lawyer asking him how to obtain eternal life. A man was attacked on the road and left for dead. Many people that society perceives as “good” pass by this man but a Samaritan took the time to stop, dress his wounds and takes him somewhere to put a roof over his head and allow him to healKevin talks about how society has never put sustained efforts into saving people outside of the hospital until the 60'sThe white paper published in the 60's indicated that you were more likely to survive a gunshot wound in the Vietnam war than in the streets of the United States because you would have someone trained in first aid at your sideThere was significant emphasis on intubation for early paramedics. This was a skill very important to the early physicians because they knew the life saving potential We talk about the evolution of intubation and how emphasis seems to be changing and the important of still training on this skill because it can be very difficult and high stressI think it is important to increase training rather than remove a skill set from paramedicsWe talk about video options for intubation and the potential future of trainingThe first paramedics in American Sirens were black men that served their community called “The Hill”Pittsburgh in the 1960's was a very difficult city for African Americans. Jobs were not available. They were told they had no value. Then Freedom House ambulance gave them a purpose designed by the father of CPR himself, Peter SafarGoing from not worthy of anything to being trusted with paramedicine at the highest level for your own neighbors, your own communityThe first call they run is in the aftermath of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's assassinationPeter Safar, the father of CPR and an anesthesiologist, designed the early ambulances in a configuration that is still used today, a captains chair because he wanted good access to the airwayTheir first medical director, Nancy Caroline, wrote the foundational EMT education text bookThe great tragedy is no one can really tell you about Freedom House ambulance until now, the story was intentionally buried and forgotten“This need to be corrected,” Kevin Hazzard tells the important storySupport the showFull show notes can be found here: Episodes - Practical EMS - Content for EMTs, PAs, ParamedicsMost efficient online EKG course here: Practical EKG Interpretation - Practical EMS earn 4 CME and learn the fundamentals through advanced EKG interpretation in under 4 hours.

All rights reserved. Summary: Find out why having the right corporate documentation is essential to safeguarding our company and assets.All of our company's documents should be in one location in our minute book.When putting together our company's minute book, make sure to consult the appropriate individuals.It's critical that our Corp, LLC or LP has the appropriate corporate documentation. If it is not in place, the corporate veil may be breached and unlimited personal liability may be imposed. When someone wins a lawsuit against the company and argues that they should be able to collect from the owner(s) personally because, the owners, failed to follow the corporate procedures, this is known as piercing the corporate veil. This is not what we want to occur. We want to protect ourselves personally, and every asset we acquire or build.Create the company's minute bookThe purpose of the corporate minute book is straightforward. We will be far better able to maintain our records up to date if we force ourselves to keep all of the company's paperwork in one location, in one binder or a file online through our smart devices or computers. If one document is missing—for instance, the minutes of our previous year's annual meeting weren't prepared—we can easily identify the issue and fix it right away. We stay focused thanks to our minute book.We may easily make our own minute book if we don't already have one. Get some dividers and a three-ring binder from any office supply store, and put in the following:CorporationsArticles of IncorporationThe Secretary of State's Corporate CharterForm for a Resident Agent submitted to the StateIRS-assigned Employer Identification Number on SS-4 noticeBylawsMeeting minutes (annual, special, and organizational, along with notices and waivers)Distribute certificates (copies or originals)Register for SharesForm 2553 (should we have submitted a S corporation tax return)Limited Liability CompaniesArticles of IncorporationOrganizational Certificate from the Secretary of StateFinish reading the full article here: https://masterinvestor.substack.com/p/how-to-prepare-our-corporate-paperworkGet our ebooks: 1- How to build cash flow with the internet?
