Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 1-22-2026: An emailer from Canada asks about long-term Remicade (infliximab) use for her 16-year-old daughter's ulcerative colitis. Dr. Dawn explains the drug blocks tumor necrosis factor, which stops autoimmune attacks but also weakens infection defense—increasing risk of fungal infections, tuberculosis, and after about 10 years, slightly elevated blood cancer risk. She recommends the daughter practice good hygiene and mask in high-risk settings. For achieving full remission, she suggests vitamin D levels around 75-80, DHEA supplementation, strict gluten avoidance due to its pro-inflammatory effects, and working with a certified functional medicine practitioner to heal the gut and potentially withdraw medication. Dr. Dawn presents a case study of a 27-year-old woman with progressive weakness, pins-and-needles sensations, and impaired balance. Despite normal B12 blood levels, elevated homocysteine and methylmalonic acid revealed functional B12 deficiency from using 20-30 nitrous oxide whippets daily. Nitrous oxide oxidizes the cobalt atom in methylcobalamin, permanently inactivating the enzyme needed for myelin sheath maintenance. Treatment requires months of daily B12 injections with recovery taking up to 84 weeks. She warns that nitrous oxide also interacts dangerously with Viagra-type drugs (causing dangerous blood pressure drops), methotrexate, stimulants, hallucinogens, and respiratory depressants. She describes Canadian researchers developing a miniaturized 3D printer for vocal cord repair. After removing nodules that cause hoarseness, the device prints hydrogel along the wound to create a flat surface preventing keloid-like regrowth, rather like spackling a wall before healing occurs underneath. Dr. Dawn discusses lipoprotein(a), written as Lap(a), a genetic cardiovascular risk factor discovered in the 1960s. This relative of LDL carries a protein that promotes blood clots, thus raising heart attack and stroke risks. In a recent large survey, only about 14% of people have been screened despite its significance. New drugs like pelicarsin can reduce Lp(a) levels up to 80%,trials underway to confirm a benefit of reduced cardiac events. She notes tennis star Arthur Ashe had high Lp(a) contributing to his coagulopathy. A natural option is already available. She recommends lumbrokinase, derived from earthworms and used in traditional Chinese medicine, as an existing treatment that combats high Lp(a) and counteracts its procoagulant effects. The product Boluoke is commercially available, offering an alternative to high-dose niacin which causes intolerable flushing and diarrhea. Dr. Dawn reports research finding people with anxiety disorders have 8% lower choline levels in brain regions regulating emotion. Increasing choline could help. Choline sources include eggs (two eggs provide 300mg of the 500mg daily choline need), organ meats, salmon, soybeans, and lecithin supplements.

Every year, 12 million tons of architectural glass from skyscrapers and office buildings ends up in landfills. Even though you diligently put your glass bottles in the recycling bin, only 30% of collected glass actually gets recycled back into glass.Sydney Mainster, VP of Sustainability at The Durst Organization, is on a mission to change that. After watching hundreds of tons of perfectly recyclable glass from a 40-story building go to waste, she pioneered a partnership to recycle skyscraper windows across New York City.In this episode, Sydney and David Entwistle (Director of Major Projects at Saint-Gobain Glass) reveal:- Why glass is the ONLY material recyclers lose money on- The hidden contamination problem that shuts down $40M furnaces- How "sneaky sustainability" is making glass recycling standard practice- Why interior office glass is the secret to scaling this solution- The roadblocks preventing this from going nationalSydney and David are completely reimagining how we handle one of our most valuable building materials.
Mable, a 59-year-old Christian woman, comes to you for counseling after enduring decades of profound suffering. Ten years ago, her second son was murdered by his wife, who shot him five times. Despite the brutality of the crime, the wife received only 300 hours of community service. Adding to the anguish are the lies during the trial, and a life insurance payout to the wife's daughter—from a previous marriage—deepened her sense of injustice and betrayal.

Most brands do not grow. Despite the industry's obsession with "growth porn," relative market share remains remarkably stable over decades. In this episode, Dale Harrison—physicist, former CFO, and consultant—joins Marc and V to dismantle the illusion of marketing-driven growth. He argues that most "hockey stick" curves are the result of external technological innovations or massive capital injections, not tactical marketing genius.For the mid-to-senior marketer, the reality is stark: your Reach is largely "locked" by your current market share and budget. This leaves you with a singular, high-stakes variable to manipulate: Creative Effectiveness. We explore why 90% of a campaign's success relies on reach you often can't control, and why your only move is to ensure your creative isn't "pissing away" the precious budget you do have.Key TakeawaysThe Reach Limiter: 90% of effectiveness is driven by Reach (IPA data), but reach is a function of cash. Unless you have $700M in venture capital (like Warby Parker), your reach is capped by your existing revenue.The Price-to-Value Ratio: Real growth happens when technology drops the cost of a solution by 10x–100x (e.g., the iPod or Electronic Spreadsheets). Marketing merely rides the "rising lake" of these disruptions.The Zero Choice Rule: There is no statistical correlation between what a consumer bought last time and what they will buy next. Loyalty is a probability distribution, not a behavior to be "built."Creative as the "Last Resort": Because you cannot outspend the incumbent, you must out-think them. Creative is the only lever that can multiply your limited reach.Timestamps & Chapters02:00 – Why growth is the exception, not the rule.03:15 – Revenue Growth vs. Market Share Growth: Knowing the difference.08:30 – The "Rising Lake" Effect: How external factors mask marketing performance.13:45 – Case Study: How the iPod changed the price-to-value ratio of music.22:50 – Warby Parker and the $700M "Share of Voice" shortcut.31:10 – Creative: The only lever marketers actually control.38:55 – Deconstructing the Loyalty Myth and the "Zero Choice Rule."46:20 – The "Shape of Loyalty": Why market share is so stable over decades.51:30 – Practical Application: How to stop "pissing away" your limited budget.About the GuestDale Harrison is a strategy consultant and former CFO with a background in physics.

How do we get beyond the competition we often see among different Christian ministries and work together for God's glory and Kingdom? Churches and nonprofits are all seeking people's attention, their participation, and especially their funding. But they do so from a scarcity mindset, believing that any funding directed to one organization or church is funding taken away from their own. We all like to say that we work for the same Lord Jesus and for the sake of His kingdom, but in practice, we compete with each other.Into this fray comes Dr. Angie Ward, professor of leadership and ministry at Denver Seminary. She is a leadership author and teacher with nearly 30 years of experience in church, parachurch, and Christian higher education ministry. Her new book is Beyond Church and Parachurch: From Competition to Missional Extension (InterVarsity Press, 2025).In our conversation, Angie Ward offers a new blueprint for churches and all other Christian ministries toward a unified future.In our conversation, * Dr. Ward provides a comprehensive definition of “church.”* She explains why it is essential that we see the church in terms of the people of God united to participate in God's mission in a variety of ways.* She provides a new paradigm: “Missional Extensions.” This terminology helps us understand how various Christian ministries function and interact.* She provides practical ideas for ministries to cease competing and to start collaborating.

This episode unpacks how Eventbrite marketing and SEO can be used to grow a business and sell tickets through organic search. Favour Obasi-ike emphasizes that placing targeted keywords at the beginning of event titles is crucial for creating effective URL (uniform resource locators) slugs that rank well on search engines. To build trust and boost visibility, event organizers should also embed YouTube videos and utilize back-linking strategies within event descriptions. Real-world case studies discussed illustrate that scheduling events at least one month in advance allows search algorithms sufficient time to index the content and reach potential attendees. Even after an event concludes, Favour notes that active links continue to drive traffic, serving as a long-term asset for brand awareness. Ultimately, the source advocates for a data-driven approach that combines strategic messaging with technical SEO to ensure sustainable audience growth.Need to Book An Appointment?>> Book a Complimentary SEO Discovery Call with Favour Obasi-Ike>> Visit Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services>> Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community>> Read SEO Articles>> Subscribe to the We Don't PLAY Podcast>> Purchase Flaev Beatz Beats OnlineEpisode Timestamps[00:00:00] Introduction: Why Eventbrite is a Hidden SEO GoldmineThe episode begins by positioning Eventbrite as a critical platform for business marketing, lead generation, and product promotion, beyond mere event discovery. The emphasis is on creating every listing with the "searcher's benefit" in mind, focusing on how the event serves the needs of a potential attendee actively searching for a solution. This strategic mindset is the key to unlocking the platform's potential and leads directly into the most critical setup step for organic success.[00:05:30] The Single Most Important SEO Factor: Your Event TitleThe event title is presented as the most crucial element for SEO success because it directly generates the event's URL slug. Placing primary keywords at the beginning of the title ensures they appear at the start of the URL, dramatically improving visibility on Google and Eventbrite. Conversely, placing keywords at the end creates a less effective URL and weakens search ranking from the outset. Getting this step wrong can undermine the entire organic marketing effort.[00:12:15] The Long-Term Value of an Eventbrite ListingA unique feature of Eventbrite is that its event links remain active and discoverable long after an event ends. These expired listings function as permanent digital assets that continue to house links to websites, YouTube videos, and other resources. As such, an old event page acts as a long-term digital billboard, continuously driving traffic and brand visibility for months or years. This sets the stage for a practical case study.[00:17:45] Case Study 1: The Wreath-Making Workshop (A Paid Event Strategy)This case study demonstrates timing, targeting, and iterative improvement by combining organic SEO with minimal paid ads. A client's first workshop failed due to a two-week lead time, which was insufficient for search engine indexing. For the second attempt, strategic changes were made: scheduling four weeks in advance for algorithm indexing, creating a high-quality 4K promotional video, and running hyper-targeted Facebook ads with a $5/day test budget aimed at building community. The result was a sold-out event, providing a repeatable formula for marketing local, paid events.[00:31:00] Technical SEO Deep Dive: Why Your Website Pages Get De-IndexedThis section explains technical reasons for losing search ranking over time. Key factors include the "Last Modified" date in a website's XML sitemap, which signals content freshness to search engines; the 24-month lifespan of a blog post's SEO relevance if left untouched; and the actionable "update rule" of updating two old pages for every new one published. A contrast is drawn with podcast RSS feeds, which re-index the entire channel with each new episode, highlighting a unique SEO benefit of podcasting. This reinforces the importance of an updated digital presence to support event marketing.[00:48:15] Case Study 2: The Junk Journaling Workshop (A Free Event Strategy)This case study proves the core SEO principles work for a free event launched by a brand-new account with zero prior audience. The client created a new Eventbrite listing for a niche craft workshop with one month of lead time. Relying purely on organic discovery, all 10 free slots sold out to unknown attendees. The 10 conversions came from just 88 page views, indicating a highly effective, targeted listing. Page views continued to climb after sell-out, proving Eventbrite pages remain active SEO assets. The next step is community building.[00:55:30] The Post-Event Pivot: From Attendees to a CommunityThe conclusion shifts focus to the true metric of success: not just tickets sold, but building a returning community. The recommended strategy involves using a post-event QR code linked to a survey to gather feedback. For free events, this is a critical opportunity to ask attendees if they would return for a paid event, gauging future viability and gaining consent for upselling. This final step transforms a single event into a sustainable, community-driven business model.Memorable Quotes:"The fault begins with the message. And if the message is wrong, everybody is confused.""It's not about how many tickets were sold. It's how many people came, saw, went back, and came back again.""For every one page that you publish, update the last two that I just want to make it easy."Actionable Takeaways & Memorable QuotesTop 3 Actionable Takeaways:1. Prioritize Your Title: Always place your primary keywords (e.g., "Marketing Workshop," "Cooking Class") at the very beginning of your Eventbrite title to create an SEO-optimized URL slug.2. Respect the 3-Week Rule: Launch your event at least three to four weeks in advance. This gives search engine algorithms the necessary time to index your page and show it to relevant audiences organically.3. Plan the Post-Event Follow-Up: The event isn't over when it ends. Use a simple QR code survey to collect feedback and, for free events, to ask attendees if they would be willing to pay for a future version.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this follow-up conversation, Noam Weissman and emotional attunement expert Toba Hellerstein move from theory to practice—using real-world case studies to explore how people are actually talking about Israel right now. Drawing on listener emails and educator questions, they tackle common scenarios like responding to social media posts about “ending the occupation,” navigating influential podcasts, addressing concerns about Gaza without triggering antisemitic labels, and supporting Jewish students under campus pressure. The focus isn't on winning arguments, but on emotional regulation, trust, and creating space for nuance in conversations where people are really asking: am I safe, do I belong, and do I matter? https://sapirjournal.org/authors/toba-hellerstein/ This episode is in memory of Leo Bernstein.

Discussion on 'income disruption years' as an exception. 00:15:13 - Strategies for Retirement Income Exploring income sources and tax brackets in retirement. 00:19:10 - Roth Conversion Decisions in Retirement Discussion on RMDs and managing taxable income effectively in retirement. 01:04:17 - Conclusion and Resources Recap of key insights and suggestions for further financial planning. Key Insights: Taxable Roth Conversions vs. Backdoor Roths Taxable conversions create taxable income and can be beneficial, while backdoor Roths are a mechanism to contribute when income limits apply. Ideal Times for Conversions Typically not advisable during high-income years; consider during low-income years or life events causing income disruption. Tax Burdens in Retirement Many retirees experience lower tax burdens than expected; RMDs are manageable for most. Roth Conversions and Future Planning Primary beneficiaries are often oneself and heirs; focus on financial success rather than tax liabilities for future generations. Avoiding Procrastination through Optimization Optimization can become procrastination; focus on higher impact decisions for financial health rather than getting lost in tax details. Actionable Takeaways: Evaluate Current Tax Bracket: Assess your taxable income before considering a Roth conversion (00:12:07). Timing Is Key: Consider performing Roth conversions during lower income years (00:12:50). Understand RMDs: Evaluate the necessity of Roth conversions in the context of required minimum distributions (00:22:28).

This is a grounded, unflinching conversation that pushes back against the misrepresentations and surface-level critiques that have come to dominate discussions around GNM. Joined by Natasha Nazerali, we explore what German New Medicine actually claims, where it is most commonly misunderstood, and why it provokes such strong emotional and institutional resistance. Rather than positioning GNM as a replacement for conventional medicine, this episode invites a more mature inquiry into nature, meaning, biology, conflict, and coherence—examining the premise that the human organism is not separate from nature, but an expression of its intelligence. From this view, symptoms are not random malfunctions, but intelligible processes arising from the same natural laws that govern all life. This is not an episode for blind belief or ideological camps, but for sincere truth-seekers willing to think clearly, question narratives, and engage with a controversial framework on its own terms.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser (00:41) Opening Conversation (02:44) Welcome Today's Guest (05:11) The Popularity & Misunderstandings of German New Medicine (10:25) Biological Laws and Their Significance (15:09) The Role of Microbes and Toxins (15:54) The Fifth Biological Law: Quintessence (17:07) Political Environment and Controversies (19:14) Dr. Hamer's Legacy and Naming Controversy (35:09) Case Studies and Scientific Claims (50:22) Overcoming Initial Client Challenges (52:16) Debating the Validity of German New Medicine (53:57) Experiencing Nature and Biological Connection (56:44) The Role of Toxins and Adaptation (01:04:00) Personal Experiences with GNM (01:21:16) The Sacredness of Biological WisdomGuest Linkshttps://www.natashanazerali.com/ The Bio-Logical Woman Course Previous Episodes with NatashaNew to GNM?

He is a recovering optometrist turned ecommerce entrepreneur. He is the founder of Eye Love, whose mission is to heal 1 million dry eye sufferers naturally. Doctor Travis and his wife, Doctor Jenna Zigler, used the profits from Eye Love to Fund free clinics in Jamaica and the US through their charity, the Eye Believe Foundation. And due to the success of Eye Love, others have asked if Doctor Travis would help them grow their businesses online and more specifically with Amazon, which led to the creation of the profitable Pineapple Ads Agency. Well why pineapple? Well, why not specializing in Amazon PPC? Doctor Travis blogs about Amazon PPC and selling on Amazon, and also has a free Amazon PPC Masterclass, which you can check out at Profitable pineapple.com. So welcome to the podcast, Travis.Travis 00:00:57 Josh, happy to be here and glad to be glad to be providing value to your audience, so looking forward to it.Josh 00:01:03 You had previously started profitable pineapple ads before the exit.Josh 00:01:07 Is that true?Travis 00:01:08 Yeah, so we started about four years ago and the exit was about a year ago. Okay.Josh 00:01:12 And so so yeah, you had already started it. So you already had something else going on, right? Do you feel like that helped?Travis 00:01:18 It did help. But to go back to your question about tips and pointers, it's all about where you find your worth in life. And a lot of us as entrepreneurs find that worth in what we're doing in our business. We bury ourselves in busy work because that's what we feel like is our worth. And it's all about that is finding what makes you feel. I don't want to say worthy, but find out what makes you feel good inside. I'm a creator. I love to educate and so I educated with my dry brand. We had a show called The Dry Eye Show. It was a podcast and a YouTube station. But then in the agency side, I also am. I teach people all the strategies that we used. And so I love to educate people on how to do stuff.Travis 00:02:05 And I was a professor at Ohio State. So I find my value in education, in masterminding with people, in networking. And so as long as that didn't go away when we sold our business, then I would be fine. My wife, on the other hand, I don't think she knows as much. She finds it in motherhood a little bit. But we have we have two kids and they're in school during the day, so. But she also finds it in I think writing is her kind of passion. Is email, copywriting, blog posting and creating that value for people in the written form. But when Eye Love kind of is going away or has gone away, and it's changed over the last year and a half, she didn't get to do that as much as she used to. And so her kind of value and her worth that she felt kind of went away. And so she kind of felt empty inside. And it's very hard. So as an entrepreneur, we need to find our worth in something that we can continue doing even when the business is gone.Travis 00:02:59 That doesn't mean busywork. It just means focusing on what you feel like you were put on this earth to do. And mine is education. And then focusing on our foundation's mission, which is giving people vision that don't have access to eyecare. And so we go on mission trips three, two to 3 to 4 times a year, and we donate to those causes as well. And that's because that's where we find value, is giving people vision because that helps their lives, of course. And then also educating and creating for people to help them learn things as well.Josh 00:03:33 All right. Let's pivot now Travis, into profitable pineapple ads. you know, tell us why you got started in PPC. And let's talk about some of the, you know, tactics that have been working in PPC specifically for now. And then. I know you've got in the Billion Dollar seller summit. you shared some advanced tactics about implementing blog strategies and some of that cool stuff. And so we'll get to that. But let's talk about just regular old PPC to begin with and your journey to where it got to you.Josh 00:04:06 Right now with your agency?Travis 00:04:08 Yeah. So the agency was just born out of a need that we had. And again, listening to the universe and how it's coming at us and taking action on it. And so what happened was we hired multiple agencies, seven agencies total tried six softwares. This was back in 2016 and 2017. And finally I hired a good friend of mine who had a very respectable agency and software. And I thought, you know, I think they're going to do a great job. If they can't do it, then I got to figure it out. And unfortunately, it just didn't work out. And what I found with agencies constantly is they just spend a lot for a little return. And they always promised, yeah, it's coming, it's coming. We're just getting the data. The problem is I kind of knew what to do with the Amazon PPC, ...
