In this episode of The Grave Talks, we sit down with Jennifer Ward, investigator with Western Idaho Paranormal Inc. (W.I.P.), a nonprofit group dedicated to scientific, professional paranormal investigation across Idaho and the Pacific Northwest. W.I.P. doesn't just chase shadows—they document them. And what they discovered inside the walls of the Gooding University Inn (formerly the Idaho State Tuberculosis Hospital) is unforgettable.Built in 1920 as a dormitory for Gooding College, the building later served as a tuberculosis hospital from 1947 to 1976—a place of isolation, suffering, and many deaths. Now, as an inn being carefully restored, visitors and investigators alike have reported overwhelming feelings of dread, unexplainable physical sensations, and full-bodied apparitions.Jennifer shares one of the most compelling EVPs ever captured in the building, along with chilling details of what her team experienced in the attic and basement, where even the current innkeeper refuses to go. Is the energy just residual from decades of death? Or is something more intelligent—and possibly sinister—anchored to the location?This is the haunted history of the Gooding TB Hospital—a place where spirits roam long hallways, shadows watch from corners, and the past refuses to die quietly. This is Part Two of our conversation.For more information, search Western Idaho Paranormal on Facebook or visit their website at widpara.com. #GoodingTBHospital #HauntedIdaho #ParanormalPodcast #RealGhostStories #EVPEvidence #WesternIdahoParanormal #TheGraveTalks #HauntedInn #GhostHunting #TuberculosisHospital #WIPInvestigations #HauntedHistoryLove real ghost stories?

It was once a college dormitory. Then a tuberculosis hospital. Now it's a rustic inn with a haunted reputation that keeps growing darker.

Zionist vulture capitalist Paul Singer, Trump's mega-Jewish donor, just hijacked Citgo—the only U.S. heavy crude refinery—at dirt-cheap prices after Trump deliberately tanked its value through pirate ship seizures and brutal blockades. Now Trump is siphoning billions in stolen Venezuelan oil directly into Singer's coffers to bankroll Israel's endless wars and globalist schemes.   A white American mom of three was gunned down cold-blood by a faceless ICE agent in Minneapolis. Owen Shroyer teams with Stew to rip open this engineered psyop designed to unleash riots, crush freedoms, and force-feed the AI Gestapo down our throats. Is this the deep-state trigger for martial law? There is no law requiring Americans in the 50 states to file or pay federal income tax—yet trillions are seized to bomb nations for Jewish billionaires and push global degeneracy at gunpoint. Peymon Mottahedeh exposes the century-old fraud and gives you the exact, battle-tested steps to go exempt, keep your earnings, and join the millions already refusing to feed the swamp. Erika Kirk isn't just grieving—she's the centerpiece of a decades-long web connecting Romanian orphanages, U.S. military bases, and accusations of child trafficking that go straight to the top.

This is an episode for the ministry underdog. There are some unwritten, unhelpful rules about worship ministry and Christian music that we need to say out loud. You're too old. Your voice isn't strong enough. You're too overweight. Your style isn't what we're going for. You can't be the face of the ministry. Of course, we don't say these things out loud, most of the time. But it appears that too often our modus operandi is to be attractive and impressive, beautiful. How are we going to sell the most records? Who is going to draw people to our church? The longer we operate with these cultural values, the more we sideline great leaders and harm them in the process. I'm not advocating anyone could be a worship leader. Obviously, there are skill standards. But how far is too far when it comes to talent, image, beauty, and age? At what point have we abandoned kingdom values for profit, power, and influence? Calvin Nowell is my guest today. Calvin is a songwriter, worship leader, and singer who has sung with many of the top names in Christian Music. Calvin also leads a diverse music collective called Aware Worship that is bringing awareness to the people side of ministry. This is vulnerable conversation. We talk about the dark sides of the industry, stigma in ministry, supporting the underdog, and looking for Jesus on the margins. Tears were shed. The presence of God was felt. Trust me, you will be encouraged. My name is David Santistevan. As always, thanks for listening. You can reach me anytime at david@beyondsundayworship.com. Topics Covered: Calvin’s journey as a worship leader The reality of starting music later in life Why we shouldn’t be afraid of frequent new songs Why diversity is important How the Christian music industry needs to change Why God still has a plan for you The struggle of weight and image as a worship leader Resources Mentioned: Show Sponsor: Planning Center Aware Worship Instagram.com/calvinnowell Show Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by Planning Center, an all-in-one church management software made to help churches help people. You can organize your ministries and keep everyone on your team communicating and aligned around what's going on. As a worship leader, good communication is key to building a strong worship team. You can cultivate relationships while ensuring everyone has what they need to successfully prep for your services. But why not take it up a notch using the chat feature? Built right into the Services mobile app—which, by the way, you should totally download if you haven't already—chat helps you coordinate all the service details with your team. Plus, you can have fun while doing it! No more juggling emails, group texts, and multiple apps to ensure your whole team is aligned. Chat will simplify your communication in one convenient place through the Services mobile app. And everyone can ask questions, request prayer, or join the banter in real-time with one another. The really cool part about chatting with your teams? Team members are dynamically added or removed from conversations as availability changes! So if your original bass player suddenly declines (why is it so hard to find a bass player, anyway?), your newly scheduled bass player is automatically added to the chat conversation. All of your chat conversations stay in sync. No more outdated group threads or irrelevant messages! So what are you waiting for? Download the Services app and start chatting! The post #380: Ministry For The Down & Out, The Discarded, And The Underdog with Calvin Nowell appeared first on Beyond Sunday Worship.

Taylor Munsell is the 2025 World Champion Professional Breakaway Roper and a five-time NFBR qualifier known for her grit, humility, and mental toughness. Built through years of highs, lows, and hard lessons, Taylor's career reflects resilience earned the long way — through consistency, adaptability, and trust in her process.In this episode, Taylor opens up about the challenges behind her championship season — missed runs, mounting pressure, constant adjustments, and the mental battle of staying confident when things aren't going her way. She shares how blocking out outside noise, staying present, and choosing to fight instead of fold ultimately led her to ride into the 10th round calm, focused, and ready.This episode goes beyond a gold buckle. It's about growth in the valleys, learning through adversity, and showing up when it matters most. Taylor's story is a powerful reminder that resilience is built long before the final run.

Are you protecting yourself, or sabotaging your potential?In this episode, Kevin and Alan challenge the habit of playing not to lose and explain why waiting, hoping, and “being patient” often mask fear. Built on their real-world experience, coaching data, and long-term pattern recognition, they unpack the psychology behind rejection, avoidance, and misplaced consistency. This is a focused conversation on offense, ownership, and why progress accelerates when action is intentional and aligned with the goal. No hype. No motivation talk. Just clear thinking, performance principles, and hard-earned perspective. Listen carefully. Then choose whether you keep defending where you are, or earn what's next._______________________Learn more about:Your first 30-minute “Business Breakthrough Session” call with Alan is FREE.

It makes no coherent sense that federal prosecutors reached for RICO in the cases of Sean “Diddy” Combs, R. Kelly, and Keith Raniere, yet refused to apply the same framework to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell—a pair whose conduct fits the statute more cleanly than almost any modern defendant. RICO is designed to dismantle criminal enterprises that rely on networks, enablers, financial infrastructure, and ongoing patterns of illegal activity. Epstein's operation was exactly that: a long-running trafficking enterprise spanning multiple states and countries, involving recruiters, schedulers, pilots, accountants, lawyers, shell companies, and complicit financial institutions. Ghislaine Maxwell was not merely an associate; she was a central manager who procured victims, enforced compliance, and maintained the machinery that allowed the abuse to continue for decades. By any objective comparison, Epstein's organization was more structured, more durable, and more dependent on coordinated criminal activity than the enterprises alleged in the Diddy, R. Kelly, or NXIVM cases.The only explanation that accounts for this disparity is not legal logic, but institutional avoidance. A RICO case against Epstein and Maxwell would have required prosecutors to identify and pursue co-conspirators, financial facilitators, and upstream beneficiaries—names that extend far beyond the two defendants who were ultimately charged. Instead, the government chose narrow counts that isolated culpability, limited discovery, and minimized exposure of third parties, even as it aggressively used RICO elsewhere to sweep in assistants, employees, and peripheral figures. The result is a prosecutorial contradiction that undermines confidence in equal application of the law: RICO when the targets are disposable, restraint when the targets implicate power, money, and institutions. If RICO was appropriate for Diddy's logistics, R. Kelly's entourage, or Raniere's inner circle, then its absence in the Epstein-Maxwell prosecution isn't a legal judgment—it's a decision to stop the case before it reached the people who mattered most.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Today we're breaking down Databricks, a $130B private company that helps companies collect, store, and process very large amounts of data, and then use that data to run analytics and train machine learning models. Databricks sits in the middle of modern data systems, connecting raw data pipelines to the tools teams use to analyze information and build AI. If you've worked on large-scale data or AI projects, there's a good chance Databricks was part of the stack, often operating behind the scenes. My guest is Alan Tu, portfolio manager and analyst at WCM Investment Management, which invested in Databricks in late 2024. Alan explains what Databricks actually does for customers, why it remains one of the least understood large private software companies, and how its academic origins and founding team shaped its evolution from an early data-engineering product into a broad commercial platform. We also discuss common misconceptions about the business, how Databricks fits into the modern AI stack, what has changed since the last time we covered the company, and how its scale, product strategy, and capital position differentiate it from competitors. Note: This conversation was recorded on December 10, 2025, so all numbers are reflective of what was publicly available on that date. Please enjoy this breakdown of Databricks.

In "How This Developer Built an Empire Through Relationships and Reinvention," Ornella shares how she went from nonprofit work in Colombia to becoming a fast-growing real estate developer operating across Texas, Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas. She explains how she accidentally entered the industry, scaled from flips to new construction, built a holding company with multiple divisions, and overcame early challenges as a woman with no money, no experience, and no network. Ornella breaks down the key strategies behind her rapid rise—mentorship, masterminds, strong teams, constant learning, cultural alignment, integrity, and the ability to reinvent herself under pressure—while offering insight into market challenges, investor mistakes, hiring, leadership, mindset, and why relationships remain the foundation of every great real estate empire. _______________________________ If you want to learn how to run your business in 5 hours or less....

This is a Vintage Selection from 2005Ever wonder how great restaurant wine lists actually come together — and why some completely miss the mark?The Guys tell stories of their “glamorous” lives being restaurateurs that (surprisingly) involves more plumbers than they ever expected. In this episode, The Restaurant Guys are joined by Chris Goodhart, wine buyer for Keith McNally's restaurants in New York City, to talk about what really goes into building a wine program that serves both adventurous drinkers and everyday guests.Chris shares stories from the floor, how he balances budgets with taste, and the quiet pressures behind the scenes when a bottle selection can make or break a dining experience.The guys also dig into a fascinating moment in time: the impending smoking ban, how it changed drinking culture, and what restaurants had to rethink overnight — from bar traffic to wine styles that suddenly tasted different without smoke in the room.It's thoughtful, practical, and full of the kind of perspective you only get from people who live inside restaurants.Timestamps00:00 — Setting the stage: running restaurants in 200509:18 — What's it like to run a wine program15:00 — Building wine lists for various venues20:00 — Chris' opinion of The Michelin Guide in NYC26:20 — How to take the pretentiousness out of the wine experience32:40 — Corks and Screw Tops 35:27 — How Smoking Bans Change the Way People DrinkBioChris Goodhart is a veteran New York City wine buyer, working for Keith McNally's restaurant group, known for building thoughtful, guest-friendly wine programs that balance discovery, value, and hospitality.Info Keith McNally's Balthazar, etc.https://balthazarny.com/Become a Restaurant Guys' Regular!https://www.buzzsprout.com/2401692/subscribeMagyar Bankhttps://www.magbank.com/Withum Accounting https://www.withum.com/restaurantOur Places Stage Left Steakhttps://www.stageleft.com/ Catherine Lombardi Restauranthttps://www.catherinelombardi.com/ Stage Left Wineshophttps://www.stageleftwineshop.com/ To hear more about food, wine and the finer things in life:https://www.instagram.com/restaurantguyspodcast/https://www.facebook.com/restaurantguysReach Out to The Guys!TheGuys@restaurantguyspodcast.com**Become a Restaurant Guys Regular and get two bonus episodes per month, bonus content and Regulars Only events.**Click Below!https://www.buzzsprout.com/2401692/subscribe

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1238:  Ford is promising eyes-off driving by 2028. But back in the bays, finding top-tier techs is still a $160K challenge. OpenAI wants to be your new health co-pilot with ChatGPT Health.Show Notes with links: https://www.autonews.com/ford/an-ces-2026-ford-doug-field-panel-0107/“Eyes off the road” is Ford's new promise—and it's coming sooner than you might expect.Ford announced an “eyes-off” driving system launching in 2028, debuting on its new Universal EV Platform.The platform will support up to 8 affordable EVs, including a $30K midsize pickup.AI assistant coming to the Ford and Lincoln app in 2026 and vehicles like Expedition and Navigator in 2027.Ford is vertically integrating hardware and software to reduce driver-assist system costs by 30%.“Too many companies have outsourced the whole soul of their machines…we chose a more difficult task,” said Doug Field, Ford's Chief EV, Digital, and Design Officer.https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/the-160-000-mechanic-job-that-ford-cant-fill-fe6fd121?mod=autos_news_article_pos3Let's talk about the $160K Ford Mechanic Job No One Wants. Ford has 5,000 open service bay jobs, some paying over $120K. But techs say the path to get there is grueling and costly—with few making it to the top.Ted Hummel, a Senior Master Tech in Ohio, made $160K in 2025—but it took over a decade to reach.Entry-level techs often start under $10/hr and must invest tens of thousands in tools and training.The “flat rate” pay system rewards speed, not hours worked—but also means zero pay when work is slow.Physical strain is intense; many leave the profession due to injury before reaching top pay.“A bay with a lift and tools and no one to work in it,” said Ford CEO Jim Farley, calling it a nationwide crisis.https://openai.com/index/introducing-chatgpt-health/ChatGPT Enters the Health Chat: OpenAI is rolling out ChatGPT Health, a new experience designed to help users navigate health information more confidently—by connecting medical records and wellness apps securely to AI.Over 230 million people use ChatGPT weekly for health and wellness questions.The Health experience is separate from general ChatGPT chats, with extra layers of privacy and encryption.Users can link data from apps like Apple Health, MyFitnessPal, and Function for more personalized advice.Medical info stays isolated within Health and is not used for training models.Built with input from 260+ physicians, it's designed to support, not replace, clinical care.“It helps you understand patterns over time—not just moments of illness,” OpenAI said in the announcement.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

For those of us who have chosen to walk a spiritual path, we've been called a great number of things. Particularly, crazy. So it can be important to have a translator of sorts to explain to the logically minded skeptics that it's possible to be spiritual without losing your mind. You don't have to abandon your logic to learn how to be spiritual. And you don't have to squeeze yourself into someone else's rituals, beliefs, or vibes to become a spiritual person. My guest this week, Laura Kusto, has done us all a favor and become that bridge to explain that there's another path — one built for strategic minds, skeptical hearts, and people who crave meaning that actually makes sense. Where spirituality isn't performance. It's pattern. It's timing.On this guest episode I have the pleasure of hearing Laura's story and conversation about al the great and rational gifts of astrology, moon phases, and how each supports productivity or planning. Laura explains how spirituality is actually the truth that rises when you finally stop outsourcing your intuition and start aligning with your natural rhythm. She shows us how to become spiritual in a way that feels grounded, intelligent, and completely yours — so your inner world can feel as clear and powerful as the life you've built on the outside. She walks us though the moon phases and how someone with zero astrology knowledge can start syncing their workflow to the moon today. She also shares about her creation, the Moon Map, and how it helps someone understand their natural timing and focus areas.Laura is the Moon Phase Astrologer for Strategic Minds—helping high-achieving entrepreneurs and executives claim their spiritual rhythm through grounded, repeatable frameworks rooted in lunar cycles. A sought-after speaker and featured Authority Magazine author, she helps analytical minds disenchanted by surface-level, “good vibes only” spirituality reconnect with something deeper. Her mission is to show driven, discerning thinkers that their intellect isn't a spiritual barrier—it's the bridge to alignment, clarity, and belonging. 25-year global corporate strategist and speaker (consulting VP & practice line lead).

Dr. Tony Tran graduated chiropractic school in 2016 and followed a familiar path. He joined a personal injury focused clinic, learned the system, and fell into the trap many associates do early in their career- overworked and underpaid. Over time, the model started to wear on him. The days felt repetitive. His schedule was full but his autonomy was limited. He wanted more control over how he practiced, how he spent his time, and how the business actually worked. In 2020, during COVID, Tony opened Prolific Wellness. He started in a 150 square foot office with a clear intention to build something different. Over time, he strategically dropped insurance panels, leaned into cash care, and kept PI patients only when he could control the quality and structure of care. Today, Prolific Wellness operates out of a 1,500 square foot space with three treatment rooms and a team of  five people. The business is roughly 50 percent cash and 50 percent PI, with a long term goal of becoming fully cash based. In this conversation, Tony breaks down the decisions, tradeoffs, and math behind building a practice that supports growth without sacrificing control. Here's what we talk about: Why Tony left a PI heavy associate role to open his own practice Starting a business during COVID and why it forced clarity early How and why he dropped insurance panels strategically Building a profitable practice inside a 150 square foot office Growing into a 1,500 square foot space with a real team The current 50/50 cash and PI model and where it's heading What he looks for when hiring an associate Why understanding the math of your business matters more than feelings Tony's story is a reminder that scale does not start with more space or more patients. It starts with understanding your model and building intentionally.

Most people buy the fiction that markets are “natural,” inequality is inevitable, and government should step aside — but where did that idea come from? In this episode from 2019, Nick and Goldy talk with English journalist George Monbiot and American journalist and author Binyamin Appelbaum about how neoliberalism was deliberately built and sold — not stumbled into. They unpack how economists, funders, and institutions rewrote the rules to favor markets over people, shifted political norms, and made extreme inequality seem inevitable — and what that history means for reclaiming an economy that works for everyone. George Monbiot is an English journalist, author, and political/environmental activist. He writes a regular column for The Guardian and has published several books on politics, ecology, and society. He's known for critiquing corporate power, neoliberal economics, and environmental degradation.  Binyamin Appelbaum is an American journalist and author. He is a lead writer on business and economics for The New York Times editorial board. He previously covered the Federal Reserve and economic policy for the Times and has written widely on how markets and policy shape society.

In this episode of The Real Wealth Show, Kathy Fettke sits down with Brian Luebben to break down how he built wealth rapidly by combining real estate investing, business buying, and a disciplined cash flow strategy. Brian shares how he transitioned from a successful corporate sales career to financial freedom in just a few years—starting with house hacking and co-living, then scaling into short-term rentals, business acquisitions, and eventually commercial real estate. He explains why many investors get stuck chasing equity instead of cash flow, and how clarity around income goals can simplify investing decisions. You'll also hear practical insights on buying cash-flowing businesses, using real estate for tax advantages like cost segregation, and why mindset alone isn't enough without a clear execution plan. If you're a high-income earner or investor trying to decide between real estate, business ownership, or both, this conversation offers a clear framework for building wealth with intention.

In this explosive deep dive, Tara exposes the staggering scope of government fraud hiding in plain sight — starting with $19 BILLION in daycare fraud alone. From Minnesota to California, federally funded “childcare centers” exist only on paper: boarded-up buildings, barred doors, zero children — yet tens of millions flowing in taxpayer money. Tara breaks down how Biden-era rule changes weakened oversight, how fraud metastasized nationwide, and why panic has set in among Democrat officials as investigators finally move in. This episode connects the dots between mass migration, job shortfalls, welfare dependency, and systemic fraud — and explains why independent journalism on X shattered a media blockade that once made all of this untouchable.

Sean Bothelio shares how he transformed from a scared 23-year-old father into a man who raised two confident sons who followed him into military service. After 30 years in the Air Force, Sean reveals the intentional decisions he and his wife Kim made to create a home where their sons' friends felt so safe that over 100 teenagers gathered there during a tragedy. He discusses the critical role of building confidence in children, why he encourages young men to consider military service, how to raise kids who can be "dropped anywhere in the world and thrive," and the profound difference between being a father and a grandfather. Sean's story proves that fatherhood isn't just about your own kids—it's a posture that impacts every young person who enters your home.Guest Links:LinkedIn---------Transform Your Body with Ned & RUK Fitness: RUK FitnessThis episode is sponsored by The Adventure of FatherhoodOrder The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?https://www.adventureoffatherhood.com/https://www.rebelandcreate.com/Each week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.

In this episode of the LiberatED Podcast, Kerry McDonald is joined by Christina Stead and Hanna Lay, two homeschool mothers from St. George, Utah. Together they founded Desert Blossom Resource Center, a nonprofit created to support homeschooling families through community-led resources, monthly panel discussions, local events, and a growing online hub that now connects more than 80 families across southern Utah. Originally envisioned as a physical community space, Desert Blossom has evolved into a virtual and community-driven model while the founders work toward securing a permanent location for future lending libraries, microschools, co-ops, and collaborative learning spaces. Christina and Hanna share how their idea began over a decade ago, how COVID reshaped their plans, and how Utah's rapid homeschooling growth has created both opportunity and urgency for better support systems. This episode is a must-listen for familes and founders who are eager to build the ecosystems that help homeschoolers and microschoolers truly thrive. *** Sign up for Kerry's free, weekly email newsletter on education trends at edentrepreneur.org.
