Welcome to episode 4 of Pro Wrestling Spotlight Rewind - where we look back at classic shows from the archives of John Arezzi, going back to the very early days of pro wrestling talk on the radio. On this episode - we will review show #4 show which aired on 1440 WNYG in Babylon, NY on April 30th, 1989. The 4th show on WNYG in 1989 features the very first on air appearances by both Gary Michael Cappetta (who is the in studio guest) and Al "Broadway Sonny Blaze" Schaefer, who later became co-host of the show. Both Gary and Al review the show with us. NOTE: As was the case in the history of PWS - technical difficulties play a part in some parts of the show from 35 years ago, and it is the case for parts of this episode of PWS Review. Gary had a very bad internet connection - and for some reason didn't hear or respond to many of the questions in the conversation. Marsh did the best he could editing it - but Gary leaves abruptly and we go right into the segment with Broadway Sonny Blaze This episode also includes the first appearances by Larry Zbyszko and Johnny Valiant, in addition to the first commercials from L&S Comix. David from the Power Twins is in the studio and John and David celebrate their victory that took place in Amityville High School the previous Friday in John's "managerial debut".  And a suprise appearance by Sol Horenstein at the end of the show Lots to digest here on this show There are classic phone calls & commercials as well!

Welcome to the Green Rush, a KCSA Strategic Communications Production, a weekly conversation at the intersection of cannabis, psychedelics, the capital markets and culture.  This week is a very special episode featuring interviews at the Marijuana Business Conference. Nick Opich went out to Las Vegas to attend the show and was able to sit down for conversations with two great guests in Gary Santo, CEO of TILT Holdings, and Beth Kotarba, Chief Operating Officer of Native Roots. Nick sat down with Gary and Beth to talk about each of their businesses and how they have evolved over the last 12 months both in growing their presence in their respective marketplaces but also how they've navigated the complex ecosystem that exists in the world of cannabis. Both Gary and Beth also provide insights into their thoughts on DE&I within the industry, their thoughts on Joe Biden's push for cannabis reform and what we may expect to see from both TILT and Native Roots heading into 2023.

It's been a little while since we've been able to podcast. Both Gary and Jason have been busy with various personal and ministry commitments. Listen in as they recap their summer activities and listen to how God has been working!

You spend your whole life studying the word of God. You feel pretty buttoned up in your theology. God calls you to the mission field, and you find yourself being a student all over again! Foreign culture is a great teacher. Both Gary and Jason have been challenged to dig deep into why they believe what they believe. While solid doctrine never changes, cultural elements often cause us to evaluate modes and methods.  There is no question that baptism is done by immersion, that it has no salvific value, and it is a testimony and example of dying to our old self and being raised again to walk in the newness of life. But, how often should you hold baptism services? Should you make someone take a class on baptism? How do you deal with the cultural aspects? Many people have very pentecostal or very catholic views of baptism. How do we handle those situations? Listen to Gary and Jason's conversation as they unpack this critical subject. This episode can be extremely valuable to fellow missionaries. It will challenge you to know why you believe what you believe and why you believe it!

If we are going to be genuine followers of Jesus, we must learn to serve others. Listen as Gary gives us a pre-sermon look at a message he was preparing to preach and apply it to practical daily living. Both Gary and Jason talk about the importance of serving others and being a reflection of our walk with God. This episode will both challenge and convict. Get out the washbasin and be ready to serve others for God's glory!

As we make our way to episode 329 of the show, we switch things up with the creators of California Surf Fishing, a duo who fishes on the coast of California.

In today's second hour, two very special guests join the Dom Giordano Program. Back on December 9th, 1981, Officer Daniel Faulkner was murdered by political activist Mumia Abu-Jamaal. For the past 40 years, Mumia supporters have tried to get Abu-Jamal released from jail. Coming up on the 40th anniversary, former Philadelphia police officers Gary Bell and Ed Frederick join the program. Both Gary and Ed were close friends with late Faulkner, and join to reflect upon the anniversary of the passing of their friend. First, Bell takes us to the day of Faulkner's passing, laying the setting for the fateful night. Bell, Faulkner's ride-along partner for years leading up to the passing, tells that Faulkner was on patrol with the police spread thin that night, and he heard and rushed to the hospital. Frederick tells the story of hearing about the passing from his point of view, and takes us through what it felt like to lose his close friend and co-worker. Then, Dom offers his list of the top 10 guests he would like Dan to book for the Dom Giordano Program in 2022, including Tom Jones, Howard Stern, and some local politicians. In addition, Neal Zoren returns to the show to tell us why Yellowstone has gained an incredible following after 4 seasons of being on television.

Covid-19 has & continues to change the way soft tissue therapists can best serve clients, and with that has come a significant change in skillset requirements.   In Ep.57 of the Sports Therapy Association Podcast, our special guest is Mike James, Director of Sports Injury Fix. Following the success of the hugely popular 'Business Bootcamp and Soft Tissue Study Day' in January 2021, the SIF team are launching SifCPD and kicking off with the two day online workshop 'Sessions for Success: Master the Fundamentals' on Friday July 2nd & Saturday July 3rd.   Mike talks to us about the shift in fundamental core skills that many therapists have found themselves facing over the last 18 months, fuelled in no small part by the pandemic we have all had to and continue to endure.  He discusses the common need for therapists to return to the basics and avoid falling prey to the very powerful 'Fear of Missing Out' effect (FOMO) when making CPD (Continued Professional Development) choices.   We are joined also by Gary Benson, founder of the STA, who helps provide an information packed episode, drawing attention to the importance of therapists being able to self reflect and consider what they need from CPD as opposed to what they want. Both Gary and Mike make it clear that if as therapists we want the quality of CPD to improve and reduce the amount of potential time & money wasting options out there, we need to vote with our choices & money.   One of the points also raised by listeners to the live show was the value of group chat, peer discussion and mentorship. Gary reminds all STA members that if anyone is looking for other therapists to talk to, they should check out the 'Buddy List' in the STA Members part of the website and all members are welcome to email Gary directly if they are interested in finding a suitable mentor.    Useful Links: SifCPD Event Tickets Sif Health website SifCPD Facebook SifCPD Instagram SifCPD Twitter Join us next week LIVE for Ep.58 - July 6th at 8pm (UK): 'Exercise Prescription Software' with special guest Tim Allardyce of Rehab My Patient Enjoyed the episode?

Episode 30 kicks of with a short review of the first leg of Liverpool’s last 16 tie against Atletico Madrid, where a dogged display from Diego Simeone’s side seen them come out on top 1-0, leaving the tie finely poised for the Anfield return. Both Gary and Terry agreed that the result was a fair one but were not too discouraged by the performance itself. Judgy, the lone blue on this episode, then reviews Everton’s 3-2 defeat away to Arsenal but he is quick to jump to the defence of Ancelotti’s team's performance, citing the sides dominance of the second half and spurned chances to get a point. The lads then tackle an interesting challenge from one of the listeners to names their Premier League XI, using only one player from each team, before Terry and Gary review Liverpool’s 3-2 victory against West Ham, in which the reds had to twice come from behind to get the win against David Moyes’ side. The episode is concluded by the lads looking ahead to this weekends fixtures; with Liverpool travelling to Watford at 5.30pm on Saturday and Everton entertaining Manchester United at Goodison on Sunday at 2.00pm.

In part 2 of this two part episode, Michael takes over more to tell his story that quickly degraded into slippery slopes of substance abuse. He tells tales of disputes with family and friends which resulted in roaming the streets, hanging out with complete strangers under bridges to get loaded and relapsing in the 8 other rehabs he's resided in before coming to the inpatient he currently lives in. Gary also chimes in to talk about the time he and his friends took Bath Salts in jail resulting in multiple bu-bops, his successful robbing escapades and escapes from being shot at by his victims. Both Gary and Michael have lived incredibly chaotic lives yet have come out stronger, sharper and more motivated to do right this time around. These two are full fledged members of the squadron for life and will be on Nod Squad time and time again to update our brethren on their progress throughout their journey of recovery.

While Frank is out of town, we welcome Ross Fraser, founding co-host of Booth One,  back to the studio. He is clearly excited to be back behind a microphone and in rare form. Gary and Roscoe revisit some favorite topics such as, "Where are the Movie Stars?" and a new shark attack on Cape Cod. Roscoe shares his favorite news story of prior week about a woman in a stolen car trying to elude police in (where else?) Florida, by jumping into a pasture with a herd of cows, who then take chase. You cannot make this stuff up. We talk about the recent passing of the great Aretha Franklin. In 2008, Rolling Stone named her the greatest singer of the rock era, ahead of Ray Charles, Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke, and John Lennon. Check out this list! Friend of the show David Cromer will be appearing on Broadway in The Waverly Gallery this fall with Elaine May, Joan Allen, Michael Ceres, and Lucas Hedges.

We have been invited to appear on After Hours with Rick Kogan on August 26. If you miss hearing it live, we'll post the link to the recording on our next episode. Both Gary and Roscoe recommend the book Something Wonderful, Rogers and Hammerstein's Broadway Revolution. Kiss of Death: Patricia Morison Learn about the actress Cole Porter discovered for his Broadway Production of Kiss Me Kate, who recently died at 103.

Is putting an art or is it a science? There can certainly be strong arguments on both sides of the divide. Yet I would suggest that for many the balance has tipped too far towards the science at the expense of the art of holing putts. It is with great pleasure today that I welcome back my good friend Gary Nicol. Gary was a very popular previous guest on the show with his refreshingly simple approach to peak performance. His views on the game resonated with many listeners. Today we turn our attention to rolling the ball on the green. Both Gary and myself have collaborated on a book that will be released shortly ..‘The Lost Art of Putting’ A book that will challenge many of your existing concepts about how to best become great on the greens In today’s show we set the scene for the launch of the book by going over some of the key concepts. Why have we LOST the ART of putting? In many ways we know wo much more about what we SHOULD be doing on the greens but we just don’t seem to be getting the ball into the hole. So many players talk about being tied up in knots and unable to pull the putter back. This is the result of a mind drowning in technical information. Have a listen to today’s show and set yourself free to really enjoy the art of putting again. We talk about Does the stroke create the putt or does the putt create the stroke? Which is more important LINE or PACE? What are you going to DO about it? How to ask quality questions on the green that will provide answers your body can act upon. How to read putts more efficiently The role of mechanics What shows up when your ATTENTION is in the right place It is a great show full of simple but practical advice that will make a difference. Gary Nicol can be contacted at www.tpegs.com and for details of our upcoming Putting Performance days He is resident coach at the wondrous Archerfield Links To contact Karl for details of his coaching programmes go to www.themindfactor.com

Show Notes:    Co-Parenting I was recently interviewed on a podcast about loss and grief Check it out here!.  During the interview, the lovely podcast host asked me if it helped to write about what happened to me all of those years ago when I went through the terrible loss of my marriage and the way of life that I thought would always be mine.  And the truth is, it really does help, but all of that stuff that I have talked about, all the stuff that has happened between Gary and I is really so long ago that I am over it.  Sure I get riled up telling the stories, and it churns me up a bit when I have a friend or one of my besties from my Facebook group contacts me and are going through the same thing, but overall, I have come out the other side.  I’m good.  Really. There is one exception to that rule though.  The part that isn’t behind me yet is the part that pertains to my kids.  Although my marriage was dissolved in a courtroom after two and a half years of battle almost six years ago now, I am still the mother of these two amazing people, and he is still their father.  And co-parenting with Gary, well it has never been easy.  I have been putting off talking about this, because it is still really real, and really raw.  And while talking about everything else is easy, it’s old news, talking about my kids and what they are currently going through is fresh, and it’s painful.  I can be somewhat impartial with the rest, but with this stuff, this is not something I feel magnanimous about…I will do the best that I can. Custody situations can vary.  I was lucky enough to be awarded sole physical custody of my kids and only joint legal custody.  Legal custody relates to decisions surrounding healthcare, religion, and schooling.  So a few years ago when my son was being brutally bullied in school and I wanted to pull him out and let him do school online, I was vetoed and there was nothing that I could really do about that.  But the sole custody part was a huge bonus for me.  And a real life saver, which I will explain here in a moment. But first let’s go back to 2009.  The very first weekend after we moved over the river and through the woods to the poopy brown house, the kids had their first “visitation” weekend with Dad.  I was kind of a wreck and couldn’t wait to get them back.  And before I even went to pick them up I got a call from my then best friend, who lived across the street and had spent some time with my daughter when she had come over to play that day.  She warned me that I was going to hear some news from the kids that I wasn’t going to like.  While the two little girls were chatting and playing, my daughter, Samantha, had told hers that she had “had a sleepover “ at daycare.  Which, if you will recall, means that she spent the night at Carol’s house.  I didn’t think too much about it because Carol, if you will also recall, was married.  My friend, we will call her Janet, wanted me to know, and I thanked her. So when I picked up the kids that evening, the first thing they both blurted out was that they had spent the WHOLE weekend at daycare.  I called Gary.  We talked civilly.  I explained to him that I felt it was important for the kids to spend some time getting used to living in two homes before he started diverting their attention with Carol, if that was what his future was going to hold.  He assured me that there was nothing going on with Carol, but in the end, he agreed that the kids should have some time to adjust first.  When I tucked the kids in to bed that night, my son, age 9, said, “Mom, I think Carol is going to be our stepmom!”  And I cheerfully agreed that “maybe she is”.  I should mention, that I was not unhappy that he would choose to start a relationship with Carol after we split.  And I also was not yet clear that she was the catalyst of the split.  Carol had been our daycare provider for a number of years at that point. She knew my kids and I believed that she cared about them.  They knew her and they trusted and cared for her as well.  My guard would have been up had she been a stranger…but she was Carol…I felt okay about the idea that if the kids wouldn’t be with me, they would be with someone who understood my parenting style and who also cared about them. Two weeks pass and the kids are back with Dad for another weekend.  They spend another weekend sleeping over at Carol’s.  During the weekend in between her husband had been given his walking papers and he was now moved out.  My kids would continue to spend almost every night spent with their father in sleeping bags on her basement floor until we got to court over a year later and I got the judge to assert that he would not have visitation with them unless they had beds to sleep in. So we got off to a rocky start parenting together from the very beginning.  The first agreement that we make on behalf of the kids is violated when he doesn’t keep the kids separate from his “friendship” with Carol.  But things are weird all the way around.  He barely seems like the same person.  And the kids start to notice. When we were together, Gary would play video games with our son, Jake, and it was kind of their “thing”.  Jake loved that time with his Dad and they played games that I didn’t always think were appropriate for Jake’s age group but my boys were happy, so I was happy.  Jake loves guns.  Both Gary and I are from an upbringing that hunt and guns are a part of our culture.  Jake had toy guns ranging from a realistic cap gun to Nerf guns.  He also had a fascination with knives and had his own pocket knife that he had been taught to handle safely.  Once Gary started spending all of his parenting time at Carol’s all of the rules changed.  Jake was not allowed to have any guns as toys there.  Carol did daycare and she would not allow it.  When I did daycare we kept my kids’ toys separate—guns were for the weekends or after all the daycare kids had left.  They weren’t outlawed.  Jake was told that this was not an option at Carol’s and to leave the guns at Moms.  Knives were definitely not allowed, which was understandable.  But what poor Jake did not understand though, was that suddenly the rules around video games changed.  First, Dad no longer wanted to play video games with him.  He was busy hanging out with Carol.  As if that wasn’t bad enough, Jake was no longer allowed to play any of his games that he was used to playing with Dad.   The M rated games were all gone.  And he wasn’t allowed to play the T rated games either.  It was G rated or nothing, and I watched as Jake’s love of video games died off.  The following Christmas Jake asked for a bunch of games and got a couple of them from myself or grandma.  When Gary saw them he was livid.  Why would I buy our child T rated games when he said no?  Well, because you used to let him have them…and no one understands why that has changed. Another thing that changed after Gary and Carol started hanging out is that he started going to church.  When Jake was a baby, Gary’s parents pushed for us to get him baptized.  Gary and I dragged our feet.  Although we identified as Christians, we didn’t go to church and I wanted to find a place that we liked before we baptized our baby there.  I asked him repeatedly to go with me to check out the churches in our town.  Gary could not be bothered to get up early on a Sunday to go and attend church services with me.  Well, once Carol was in the picture, they were going twice a week.  AND requiring the kids to go with them.  Our kids had never had to sit through a church service other than a random funeral or wedding and suddenly they were going twice a week when they were with Dad.  Jake didn’t like it.  He doesn’t believe the way that we do and I accept that he has his own opinions.  His father does not and it has caused problems between them. Then there was talk of having Samantha baptized at Carol’s church…but not really to me, rather around me.  That still hasn’t happened yet, but I am fairly certain I won’t be invited when it does.  And yes, doing that behind my back is a direct violation of our court order. There are more tales of parenting woe like when Gary decided to take Samantha to get her ear’s pierced and I said no but he did it anyway, because he said Carol deserved to have that special time with MY daughter.  Or like the times that he and Carol would decide to go out of town and leave the kids with Carol’s mother instead of allowing them to just stay with me.  Or the dozens of times they took my two kids and her one child and left the three of them in a hotel room at the casino overnight so they could gamble on the casino floor all night long, a nine year old in charge of two other kids 6 & 4. Or how he stopped bringing them to visit his parents as much or accommodating his parents vacation schedules so that I had to deprive my kids of time with their beloved grandparents or give up my own time. You know the answer to that one…I give up my time over and over again so that they can continue to have a wonderful relationship with their grandparents.  Or there was also the time when he essentially kidnapped my children on a Friday night that happened to be Jake’s birthday because he said he was sick of dealing with me and he would not be bringing them back until a judge ordered him to.  And I cried and cried until Tuesday, when the kids reappeared.  As if by magic.  And don’t even get me started talking about child support.  I could go on and on. Now those of you who have gone through a divorce or are going through one are probably screaming at me right now that I need to document this and tell the judge.  Well, I did just that and although the judge sided with me on every issue and made notes to that effect in her court order.  Enforcement of that court order is something else entirely and the reassurance that the judge agrees that my kids being left in a hotel room is not safe does not help me keep them from ending up in that hotel room when they are in their Dad’s care.   Yes, I could have him found in contempt, but that all costs money and time, which are two things that I don’t have ample quantities of and I would rather spend what I do have on these kids. Parenting with an ex is hard.  Parenting with an ex who cannot be wrong and does not ever see the error in his ways or apologize for anything…well, I am going to go out on a limb and say that it is impossible.  I sure haven’t been successful at it.  Throughout all of this abuse, I never badmouthed this man to his children.   Until recently—when for reasons you will discover in a moment, it could no longer be avoided. I will talk about the perils of bashing the ex in another episode, but it’s just a terrible idea on all fronts.  Don’t do it. Jake is 17 now.  He is a smart, creative, sensitive young man and he makes me proud in a myriad of ways every single day.  He also makes me want to strangle him on occasion but I love and respect the human he is growing up to be.  His Dad has a mold that he would like Jake to fit into.  You see, Jake has never really liked school, and as a result he is an underachiever by society’s measure.  He isn’t incredibly social, doesn’t put a ton of energy into chasing girls, and doesn’t play sports.  Jake didn’t get his driver’s license right when he turned 16…or 17.  Part of that was that I couldn’t afford drivers ed because well, his dear old Dad doesn’t help out too often, but also because he doesn’t really care if he gets a driver’s license and he recognizes that there are financial ramifications to doing so.  And he has no interest in getting a traditional job—both because he does not incur expenses, and because he hopes, and is working towards making a living online doing graphic design for video game designers.  He is very good at it.  All of these things add up to “not good enough” for his father.  So a few months ago, the two of them had a discussion, via text message about his father’s expectations and Jake decided that rather than change himself to avoid disappointing his father, he would just NOT.  His father expects an apology that Jake has opted not to give.  So he doesn’t see too much of his Dad anymore.  He is starting to stand his ground and to speak up when things seem unfair, and that doesn’t go over well with a man who cannot be wrong.  Then there is Samantha.  She is such a radiant soul and has always been Daddy’s little girl.  But the stuff happening with her brother upset her.  Hearing Carol talk trash about her brother got to her even more than listening to them talking trash about me for all of these years.  Sweet Sammy started hardening herself, suspecting that if she didn’t jump through all of the hoops that she would be next.  That time came sooner than she expected.  While camping with some cousins and Gary’s parents, her step-brother Charles became upset claiming that Samanthaand Jake were teasing him.  He was in tears, and wanted to go home so he called his Mom.  She immediately set out for the northwoods to retrieve him and Gary sent a text message to me and an email to his mother that he was going to bring our kids home too.  Well, when Carol showed up at the campground, it was only Samantha who had to go home, and after words were exchanged between her and the grandmother a tearful fourteen year-old girl was driven away against her will.  She was devastated and swore that she did nothing wrong.  Her story was corroborated by her grandmother and every adult at the campground, and after a day and a half when I was finally able to see her, I mentioned flippantly that I had half a mind to drive her back there.   After consulting with and getting approval from the grandparents, we hatched a plan… and back to camping she went.  Of course she was punished the next time she went to Dad’s for defying his orders, but we believed that we had stood up for what was right.  And even after trying to talk to him with the help of her therapist, he refuses to believe that he did anything wrong or that his forcing her to leave her cousins and grandparents was anything less than “good parenting”.   He also bought her expensive concert tickets the week that this therapy visit was scheduled, because he had to know that she had grievances to air.  And his doing so, as per his plan in my opinion, pushed her complaints to the side.  At least for now. Samantha is a bit more aware of the tenuous nature of her situation now.  She knows that one wrong step will put her right out of her father’s favor.  But she also cares less.  People always say that kids are smart and they figure stuff out for themselves, and that is certainly true with my kids.  They get it now.  They certainly are nobody’s fools. And here’s the big moral of this whole story.  While these tales and woes do not necessarily involve me…it is incredibly upsetting to comfort your child when they are hurt by one of the two people who should love them most in the world.  Just like them bashing me to the kids though, it works slightly in my favor.  My kids are more aware now than ever before that my love for them does not have conditions.  That they don’t have to fit a mold for me to love them.  And that they don’t have to hide their feelings or pretend.  We can talk through the tough stuff. They are welcome to have and share their opinions.  Just as I am allowed to play the parent card and overrule them. Gary and Carol like to say that we don’t have any rules in our house.  But we do have rules.  Well, maybe just one rule.  Love and respect each other.  I strongly believe that if we do that, there are no additional rules required.  While I wish that things were different and that their father and I could work together to be better parents to them and to remove so much of the awkwardness that has happened and is bound to continue to happen when we have to attend things together, I am feeling pretty okay with what I am accomplishing on my own.  These are good humans.  I must be doing something right.

High Point Market: Hospitality Designers Share All Today in The Lounge, Nick hosts the Hospitality Insiders Share All: What it Takes to be a Designer in the Hospitality Sector panel with guests Gary Inman, Nina Magon, Patrick Sutton, and Todd Ellenberger. The panel was recorded live at High Point! Nick also talks with Lynne Lawson of Lawson Dream Team at Norwalk Furniture during High Point. Lynne and Nick discuss how she finally entered into interior design and how she did it with no interior design education.  Hospitality Insiders Share All: What it Takes to be a Designer in the Hospitality Sector The panel begins with each designer introducing themselves and talking about how they began their careers in interior design. They all work in varying design firms, from large to small. Both Gary and Nina have fashion design backgrounds and then later moved to interior design. Patrick is the son of a pioneer of 'travelism,' so he spent his childhood seeing the world and enjoying its architecture. He loved the world of architecture but felt something was missing. In order to complete his story, he stopped doing architecture and began designing interiors of buildings. Todd started thinking about interior design in high school and right out of school began designing handmade draperies for high-end residential clients. A few years down the road and he now works for Hirsch Bedner Associates. The designers talk about their transitions into the hospitality sector and some of the difficulties they faced in changing from residential to hospitality. They discuss the differences in design, such as logistics and fabrics, as well as the change in monetary profits. They also chat about how long it really takes to design a hotel from start to finish. For more input, listen to the full panel! Getting to Know Lynne The last vacation Lynne took was in Europe when she visited Austria and Switzerland this past summer. She fell in love with Switzerland during her two-week stay. Lynne lives in Columbia, Maryland and the last home decor piece she purchased for her home was a convertible cocktail to dinner table. The one room in her home that she would never put on Instagram, is her daughter's room because it's still in transition from her moving out... Lynne plans on converting it to her 'woman cave.' "Beer, wine or cocktail?" Lynne prefers wine. How Lynne Got Started in Interior Design Lynne previously worked at IBM for 19 years, as a salesperson, consultant, and a consulting principal. She would sell mainframes to NASA, classified agencies, the White House, House of Representatives, the Senate and the World Bank. She left because she was traveling a lot, lost her younger brother, and turned the age where enough was enough. She thought about what she really wanted to do with her life and decided to go 'interior design.' Decorating Den Interiors is a 47-year-old business of individually owned and operated franchises. It is for both start-up interior decorators with no experience and interior designers with degrees who want to take advantage of the business, marketing, and public relations opportunities that Decorating Den Interiors provides. To get into Decorating Den, you first have to contact the corporate office and they take you through a series of steps: you qualify the company and the company qualifies you. At the end of the day, you should be able to run your own franchise! If you move forward in the process, you are then given both business and design training. Some of their training includes how to recieve leads and how to market your business. You are encouraged to have a grand opening seminar to generate leads so you can get started on designing. In the beginning, you continue to receive training from a manager as well as continue going to CEUs (Continuing Education Units). Lynne says that running your business from a series of consistent and repeatable processes makes it successful! Nick,

“One of the most important things for a leader to be able to move up the ladder is to understand FINANCIALS”.On this week's show, Chris “The Bulldog” Collins and co-host Gary “G-MAN” Daniel discuss the keys to understanding the financial statement and how in just simply understanding the financial statement correctly can dramatically increase profits and create effective workflow systems.Before the main topic of the week, Chris wants to discuss Gary’s new hobby…long-boarding. As it turns out it’s not just any longboard, “but the Ferrari of longboards” with a wireless remote triggered engine. Gary’s relives a dramatic story/situation that happened on the Venice Beach boardwalk the other week. Following this Chris wants to have the “mid-life crisis conversation”. As Chris asks what Gary will purchase for next car, they discuss classic cars and some of their own car history including the cars on their dream list.The experts of the Service Drive then move onto the main topic of the week - financials. Chris opens up the topic talking about how managers aren’t paying enough attention to the financial statement and focusing too much on gross. Chris and Gary break down what you need to be looking at when you're going through and working with financials - profit is the bottom line, “we’re in the business of making money”.Gary reminds Chris of when he taught him how to understand financials many years ago, using a pen and pencil instead of Excel spreadsheets. Both Gary and Chris discuss how difficult it was and how it made them feel almost stupid “it took me until the 5th or 6th time to get it”. But it’s just repetition and learning how to work and understand it, as Chris states “it’s a living and breathing thing… you don’t have to be a maths whizz…you just need to learn it”. Understanding expenses, net income, gross income, effective labor rate, the gross profit percentage, and realizing how your financial metrics function helps create CLARITY in the business as it touches so many various components, resulting in better systems and the tools to scale and grow your SERVICE DRIVE.Get involved in the community and learn financials from the Bulldog himself as “it’s the first thing we teach you” - https://chriscollinsinc.com/Subscribe in iTunes - https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/service-drive-revolution/id1125522101?mt=2&ls=1Listen to the Full Episode Here -http://ChrisCollinsInc.com/48Follow us on Social Media -InstagramTwitterFacebookLinkedInYouTube See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

     Actors Gary Mauer and Jan Horvath from Broadway's "The Phantom of the Opera" join me on the podcast to discuss the 30th anniversary of the show's debut on the London stage in 1986.

Jan Horvath is a member of the original 1988 New York company and has played both Christine and Carlotta on Broadway. Both Gary and Jan have considerable acting and singing credits to their name. During this episode, Gary and I discuss the theology of "Jesus Christ Superstar," and Jan becomes the first Broadway actress to make pig grunts on my podcast!

This week we return, without guests, to a topic with which we have annoyed listeners in podcasts for years—the idea of SF canon formation: who gets dropped from the canon, who gets added, and whether such things as Hugo nominations make any difference at all. The decade between 1985 and 1995 (20-30 years ago now), saw the deaths of many of the writers who helped establish much of the "classic" SF canon — Robert A. Heinlein, Isaac Asimov, Theodore Sturgeon, Frank Herbert, Alfred Bester, Fritz Leiber, John Brunner, Roger Zelazny, James Tiptree Jr, Cliffard Simak, Lester del Rey, Philip K. Dick, C.L. Moore, and more. Who among them are still being discovered by new readers, and which writers and books in the last 20 years are likely candidates for a future canon? Does it take 50 years or more to determine what is canonical? Are Hugos any sort of reliable guide? And what difference do canons make anyway, beyond collective lists of personal favorites? We also have decided, as announced in the podcast, to officially support the Helsinki in 2017 and Dublin in 2019 WorldCon bids. Coode St endorses these conventions, will be buying memberships to them, and will attend should they be successful. Both Gary and Jonathan are eager to be part of major international WorldCon events like 2014's Loncon. We hope you'll join us in supporting these great bids. We hope you enjoy this week's episode. Next week: Paolo Bacigalupi and The Water Knife!

Episode 43: "Gary, Gene, and the Podcast Live Again!" The podcast returns after a lengthy hiatus, following Gene's near-death medical crisis of last Summer (August 2011). Gary begins the show discussing Gene's revelatory experiences, and discussing in depth how this was a wonderful example of putting the Course's teachings into practice — being able to experience peace at all times, even when facing an extreme circumstance. The conversation takes a lighter turn when Gary brings up Gene's new book, "A Golf Course in Miracles", which was released while Gene was recovering from surgery; and then Gary talks about his recent schedule, and how it has allowed him to focus on his writing, and also on counseling activities. The talk about counseling also touches on why anything effectively "therapeutic" that takes place in the world is really being coordinated in one way or another by the Holy Spirit. After a bit more chat together, Gary and Gene transition into the recording of the "Podcast at Sea", taped during 2011's cruise to the Greek Islands and the Mediterranean. After some introductory remarks the conversation turns to A Course in Miracles, and about how the Course as well as Gary's books seem to resonate so well with people from all over the world. Both Gary and Gene discuss the Course's effectiveness and practicality in dealing with the challenges of life and spirituality. Then it is time for "Questions for Gary!" First question asks about the differences between "waking dreams" (our daily "life") and the dreams we have at night. Gary's answer touches on the important concept that ALL our dreams are simply that: just dreams… and if we can begin to see that our sleeping dreams are not real, even while we are experiencing them, then we are getting very close to realizing that our "waking" dream-state is really no different. (More Questions for Gary from the "Podcast at Sea" will be coming up in our next podcast episode.)

Unity minister Tom Thorpe and his guests Gary and Linda Pezzuti continue sharing Eric Butterworth's insights and their own response to the insight that success is really about "earning the right to be there.” Both Gary and Linda were members of Eric Butterworth's New York congregation and close associates of both Eric and Olga Butterworth.
