The wave isn't coming anymore. It's here. And this season finale opens with the hardest truth the show has dropped all year: the glory years didn't build business owners — they built order fulfillers. Work got thrown at you, you executed, the phone rang on its own. Now it doesn't, and the guys who never built the machine are discovering they never had one. Shawn's been here before: 2008, Roofer Webs, a client list full of southern US roofing companies that stopped paying overnight. The survivors had built the pieces before they needed them.Marshall reframes it with one word: conditioning. Not entitlement — conditioning. Pavlov rang the bell and six unprecedented years of easy money rang yours. Conditioned to skip the P&L. Conditioned to skip the data entry. Conditioned to believe you don't need Luna marketing for you. So which is it — ignorance or conditioning? Pick one, then fix it.Then the biggest idea of the episode: EFFICIENT vs. MEMORABLE. Automate everything and you've built a perfectly efficient business identical to the guy down the block running the same $25/month AI. Everything is a form. Nothing is a memory. The Ritz-Carlton solved this with a single scented candle sent to a stressed guest's room — she wrote about it in Forbes and chose them forever after. What's YOUR candle?Marshall's answer: Stack. Eight ounces of ceramic coating, $10-15 per application, 30 minutes — literally the price of a candle. Slow schedule? Gift it. Shawn's play: pull ten past customers from OrbisX and call — "I'm lining up ten customers for a gift, and your Tacoma was the first thing I thought of. I've got nine more calls to make." Then relaunch it months later as your flagship package. Roleplay the pitch with Luna first — she'll find the one sentence killing your close.And the McDonald's study that explains everything: when self-order kiosks arrived, multi-burger orders among men jumped 257% — the screen removed the shame of asking a human for the second burger. That's the Two-Burger Theory, and it's exactly why the HyperClean Growth Program works: some customers will never say yes to your face, but give them a pressure-free way to order the second burger and they'll double their own ticket.The finale closes with two questions that decide who's still on the surfboard in 2027: Would you do business with you? And would you come back?Season 8 is a wrap. See you on the other side of the wave.
The quest for the Candle of Unasked Mercy continues as our disgusting dirtbags enter into the tomb to continue thier search. What will they find as they dive deeper and deeper, encountering monsters and other horrors within. This is Episode Two of 'A Forked Tale', a mini-arc for Morg Borg which is published by Free League.

This week, in West Liberty, Iowa, we finish this wild story, with detectives completely baffled by the mystery murder, and the case going cold. That is, until a detective's chance meeting with a witness, who was 9 years old, when the murder happened. She says she saw one of the suspects performing some kind of ritual, with black candles, and apologies to the dead. There ends up being more than one trial, bringing the case to a close. But did they get the right person?? Along the way, we find out that you should always check for 4th graders, when performing a death ritual, that most people are surprised to be arrested 25 years after a murder has taken place, and that just when we think we know everything about a murder case, things can completely change!!

Emmy and Golden Globe winner Michael Chiklis joins Steve Kmetko for a remarkably candid conversation about The Shield, Fantastic Four, The Commish, Hollywood, artificial intelligence, reinvention, family, failure, and the future of the entertainment business. Chiklis opens up about the dramatic changes he's witnessed in Hollywood and why he believes the industry has contracted far more than many people realize. He discusses his concerns about AI, actors losing control of their own likenesses, and what happens when technology companies become some of Hollywood's most powerful players. Michael also reveals how his wife helped convince him to completely reinvent himself after The Commish, how he developed Vic Mackey for The Shield, and why he still proudly defends his Fantastic Four movies and his portrayal of Ben Grimm, The Thing. Away from Hollywood, Chiklis gets emotional talking about finally visiting Greece, becoming a grandfather, his family, and what he's learned about failure after decades in show business. And then there's Elton John. Michael tells an extraordinary story about randomly encountering Elton John in a Boston Versace store, discovering Elton was a fan of The Commish, and ultimately watching Elton change his concert for Michael's wife and perform "Candle in the Wind" especially for her. It's Michael Chiklis, candid, funny, thoughtful, occasionally profane, and completely unfiltered.

Are you an overachieving director, VP, or senior AE burning the candle at both ends because you're forcing a cookie-cutter side business that doesn't fit your background? In this highly strategic solo episode, host Billy Keels breaks down why choosing the wrong side venture model leads to intense overwhelm, wasted energy, and a loss of your most critical asset—your time. Drawing from his 26-year corporate career managing $100M EMEA operations for a legacy German enterprise software titan, Billy shares how he built a side asset engine generating $212,000+ per year in additional revenue. Discover how to analyze your current resources using the high-level "invest or build" framework, calculate your exact optionality number down to the decimal place, and trade the limiting fear of failure for a powerful mindset shift: What if it actually works?

Japanese true crime and Japanese folklore, one candle at a time.In June 1981, a Japanese literature student in Paris asked a Dutch classmate to come to his apartment and help him with his German pronunciation. Renée Hartevelt was twenty-five. She said yes because she was the kind of person who noticed when somebody was sitting on their own.Issei Sagawa confessed within days. He was never convicted, never imprisoned, and never spent a single night in a cell. He spent the next thirty-six years being interviewed, published, booked and paid — and at one point, employed as a restaurant critic.This episode pairs his case with the jikininki: the Buddhist hungry ghost, cursed to devour the dead every night through a throat too narrow to swallow anything at all. A creature no court can touch, no prison can hold, and no executioner can reach — one that ends only when somebody finally decides to stop feeding it.Two stories about an appetite that was never the crime.It was the sentence.⸻Contains: graphic violence, cannibalism, sexual violence (referenced, not depicted), and detailed discussion of a real victim.

In this homily for the Feast of Saint Pius X, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC reflects on the saint's strong rejection of Modernism and its weakening of objective truth. He explains that Christian love cannot be reduced to simply being nice, avoiding conflict, or affirming everything. True Christian love means willing the good of another person, especially their eternal salvation, and therefore requires us to remain faithful to God's truth even when that truth is difficult or unpopular. Fr. Chris reminds us that truth must always be spoken with mercy, humility, and compassion. Fraternal correction, when motivated by genuine concern for another person's soul rather than judgment or pride, can be a profound act of love. Following the example of Saint Pius X, Christians are called to reject a lack of truth while also rejecting harshness: true love neither sacrifices truth for niceness nor uses truth without mercy, but lovingly guides souls toward conversion, reconciliation with God, and salvation.

Charles Spurgeon's beloved “John Ploughman” returns – plain-spoken, sharp-witted, and full of gospel truth. Following the tremendous response to John Ploughman's Talk, Spurgeon offers this second volume of plain counsel for everyday people. With colorful illustrations drawn from rural life and seasoned with humor, he speaks straight to the heart – warning against folly, exposing hypocrisy, encouraging honest labor, and encouraging all to turn to Christ. Written “in the simplest form of our mother tongue,” John Ploughman's Pictures uses pointed proverbs and everyday situations to make biblical wisdom stick. Whether rebuking drunkenness, urging integrity, or lifting hope for the prodigal, Spurgeon is ever the master with words. Both warm and bold, humorous and deeply serious, this classic reminds us that the gospel is for ordinary people and for daily living – and that plain truth is often the best kind. About the Author Charles Haddon (C. H.) Spurgeon (1834-1892) was a British Baptist preacher. He started preaching at age 16 and quickly became famous. He is still known as the “Prince of Preachers” and frequently had more than 10,000 people present to hear him preach at the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London. His sermons were printed in newspapers, translated into many languages, and published in many books.

Between the village of Anwick and the town of Sleaford in Lincolnshire, England, lies a farmhouse.It is at this farmhouse that our journey begins.Robert is a stockman on a farm. Daphne is his wife. Their little boy, Bernie, is born in that little farmhouse by lantern light because the house is much older than electricity.When Bernie is five years old, his father is promoted to farm manager, and they are moved into a house with electric lights.Bernie thinks, “Now we are living the good life.”He leaves school at 15, but his mother has given him a love for literature and her father “Poppy” has injected him with a love for nature and narrative poetry.Bernie sends a few of his poems to a music publisher in London who is looking for song lyrics.That same publisher is talking to a young man named Reggie who is looking for a way to leave “Bluesology,” a mediocre local band that plays songs while the patrons of local restaurants eat fish and chips. Reggie says to the publisher, “I'm very good with music, but I can't write lyrics. I'm hopeless.”The publisher responds by handing Reggie an unopened envelope that he snatches from the top of the pile on his desk. He says to Reggie, “See what you can do with that and get back to me.”Neither Bernie nor Reggie are accepted by the music publisher, but they are accepted by each other. Bernie mails poems to Reggie in London, and Reggie writes the music that turns Bernie's poems into songs.You have heard many of these songs, I'm sure.According to Jordan Runtagh,“‘Rocket Man,' ‘Honky Cat,' ‘Crocodile Rock' and ‘Daniel' all immediately shot into the Top 10 in rapid succession. By 1975, they were responsible for 2 percent of all records sold on the entire planet. That same year they released Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy, which became the first LP in history to debut at the top of the Billboard chart.”Reggie is Captain Fantastic and his farmboy friend Bernie is the Brown Dirt Cowboy.Reggie knows, of course, that he is unlikely to become famous as Reggie Dwight, so he creates a new name from the names of his former bandmates, Elton Dean and John Baldry.As “Elton John,” Reggie writes the tunes that make Bernie's poems famous around the world. Some of those tunes are “Your Song,” “Levon,” “Tiny Dancer,” “Candle in the Wind,” “Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting,” “Bennie and the Jets,” “Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me,” “The Bitch is Back,” “I'm Still Standing,” and “I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues.”In 1973, Bernie was traveling to concerts with always high, out-of-control Elton, doing the job each day of all the king's horses and all the king's men by “putting Humpty Dumpty back together again.”When the Brown Dirt Cowboy decided that he didn't want to do it anymore, he wrote his brother a letter of departure:“When are you gonna come down? When are you going to land? I should have stayed on the farm. I should have listened to my old man. You know you can't hold me forever. I didn't sign up with you. I'm not a present for your friends to open. This boy's too young to be singing the blues. So goodbye yellow brick road where the dogs of society howl. You can't plant me in your penthouse. I'm going back to my plow. Back to the howling old owl in the woods hunting the horny back toad. I've finally decided my future lies beyond the yellow brick road.”“What do you think you'll do then? I bet they'll shoot down the plane. It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics to set you on your feet again. Maybe you'll get a replacement. There's plenty like me to be found, mongrels who ain't got a penny sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground.”Reggie Dwight did what he always did. He wrote a tune and sang what Bernie had written.In the days when an album that sold a million copies was a “Gold Record,” Reggie and Bernie's album, “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” sold 30 million copies.A few years ago, Bernie Taupin spoke of the “inseverable bond” of brotherhood that he and Elton have shared for 60 years.“In the insanity of our lives, there's nothing better than the times when we get to sit down, just together. Like those moments in the dressing room, about a half an hour before he goes on, when I'll go in and see him and there's nobody else in there, and it's just he and I. The calm before the storm. It all comes back. When we're just alone with each other, it seems like a frozen capsule of time that everything we've ever done together inhabits. That's magical to me.”Bernie, I think I speak for a lot of other people when I say that your partnership is magical for us, as well.Roy H. Williams
His wife said he hadn't told her he loved her all day. He had screenshots proving he'd said it five times. He kept them to himself, and that was the whole lesson. Part three of our five-part week with Dr. Robert Glover, best-selling author of No More Mr. Nice Guy, and probably the most immediately useful one. Glover draws the line between a factual statement and an emotional statement, and makes the case that when your wife says something that seems provably unfair, the accusation was never the point. The trigger you feel is the signal. FREE THIS WEEK: We built a companion field guide for the whole series.
