Summary In this episode, Andy interviews Adrian Kelly, author of The Success Complex: Ancient wisdom, the building blocks of life and your path to sustained success. Drawing from history, behavioral science, and personal stories, Adrian offers a compelling redefinition of what it means to succeed. From his humble academic beginnings to building international ventures, Adrian brings a unique perspective on resilience, motivation, and identity. They discuss why IQ may be overrated and how something Adrian calls the “Point Guard Quotient” might better predict success. The conversation dives into increasing your luck, avoiding de-motivation, managing identity through career changes, and maintaining balance in a high-achievement world. They also explore practical lessons from the Challenger disaster and how small changes in communication can shape results. If you're looking for insights on redefining success, building motivation, and leading with awareness and impact, this episode is for you! Sound Bites “We overestimate talent and underestimate persistence.” “Opportunity doesn't waste time with the unprepared.” “People want to help people who help themselves.” “You don't fall off a cliff overnight—you drift one day at a time.” “Avoiding de-motivation is often more important than sustaining motivation.” “Sometimes the drawback isn't a setback—it's a setup for a better path.” “Nobody traps us quite like we trap ourselves.”   Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:07 Start of Interview 01:18 What from your early life shaped your view of success? 07:12 How much does IQ influence success and what's the 'Point Guard Quotient'? 11:52 What can we learn about success from the Challenger disaster? 14:03 What do you mean by avoiding de-motivation to sustain motivation? 18:57 What do you mean by a tangled identity and how has that affected you? 27:05 Is it possible to increase your luck? If so, how? 30:41 How do biases and communication styles affect our opportunities? 33:48 How can we balance the drive to succeed with well-being? 39:34 Why is autonomy and attention so important for success? 43:39 As parents, how can we prepare our children for success? 47:00 End of Interview 47:30 Andy Comments After the Interview 53:49 Outtakes Learn More You can learn more about Adrian and his work at AskMore.ie.

When a baseball connects perfectly with the bat and sails over the fence, there's a special feeling that stays with you forever. That magical moment—one that Clearwater Little League board member Amanda Cole hopes every child experiences—sits at the heart of our latest conversation about youth sports, community building, and creating future leaders.Fresh off our successful fundraiser that raised $3,500 for the league, Amanda reveals what makes Clearwater Little League special beyond the typical base hits and strikeouts. With over 360 players each season, their programs extend far beyond traditional baseball, including six Challengers teams that provide children and adults with disabilities the opportunity to experience America's pastime. Every fall, they host the statewide Challenger jamboree, welcoming teams from across Florida for a weekend celebration of inclusive baseball.Behind the pristine fields and impressive facilities lies a volunteer-driven organization tackling significant challenges. Hurricane damage last season forced the closure of five fields, while annual expenses—including a surprising $10,000 just for baseballs—require continuous fundraising efforts. Yet through careful stewardship, registration fees remain remarkably affordable ($35 for T-Ball), ensuring financial barriers don't prevent participation. The league provides equipment for newcomers and creates a supportive environment where players can develop confidence while building relationships with caring adults.Amanda's vision for the future includes doubling their softball program and increasing female representation in coaching and umpiring roles. However, with seven fields already booked from afternoon until night throughout the season, community support through sponsorships (ranging from $600 to $25,000) and volunteering has never been more crucial to their continued growth.Whether you're looking to register a player, volunteer your time, or support youth development through sponsorship, visit clearwaterlittleleague.com today to discover how you can help build brave, honest leaders who care about their community both on and off the diamond.

Send us a textKen welcomes Washington political commentator, speechwriter, and author Peter Wehner. Pete is a contributing writer at The Atlantic and a senior fellow at the Trinity Forum. He is well known for his prolific contribution to the intersection of politics, public policy, and faith. Early on, he identified as a conservative, a Republican, and an Evangelical. From 2011, when Donald Trump campaigned to challenge the legitimacy of the Obama Presidency, suggesting that he was born in Kenya and not the U.S.A., Wehner has called out the danger of a Trump presidency. Pete has been a stalwart in opposing Donald Trump and in the process, he no longer identifies as a Republican or an Evangelical. He remains a traditional conservative. However, he has offered a powerful and sustained critique of evangelical support for Donald Trump and a Republican Party that has become subservient to the newly elected President. Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson played a key role in that transition. Ken and Pete have a lively discussion over his early years as a new Christian, his college career, the influence of his scientist father, his move to Washington, Reagan's speech after the Challenger disaster, George Bush's 9/11 speech (Pete was in the White House that fateful day), and finally Donald Trump's complete take-over of the Republican Party and his return to the White House for a second term.

In this episode, Eric sits down with Åsa Borg, the Chief Marketing & Commercial Operations Officer at Polestar, the Swedish electric performance car brand that's challenging the automotive industry. Since launching in 2017, Polestar has rapidly expanded to 27 markets globally with their lineup of electric vehicles. Åsa brings her wealth of experience from 20 years at Volvo Cars to this challenger brand, offering unique insights on the difference between marketing for an established brand versus building one from scratch.One of the key takeaways from this conversation is how Polestar approached sustainability—making it core to their brand identity rather than just a marketing message. Åsa shares that transparency is a fundamental value for Polestar, especially in an industry that has historically hidden its environmental impact. We also dive into their decision to bring creative and media capabilities in-house, which has allowed for greater consistency, speed, and control over their brand expression across all 27 markets. Another fascinating aspect of our discussion explores how AI is being integrated into their marketing operations, from improving translation to maintaining brand tonality across markets. If you're interested in automotive marketing, sustainability branding, or building in-house creative capabilities, this episode is packed with valuable insights!Watch the video version of this podcast on Youtube ▶️: https://youtu.be/fSEW2Vl2Sf8

The IPS DEPROGRAM April 25, 2025, delves into a topics centered around the idea of manufactured realities and "psyops." He begins by discussing the concept of "mind viruses" that the public is supposedly powerless against, leading to societal control, drawing a parallel with the pretext used for lockdowns. ."the public is facing an onslaught of mind viruses which they are powerless against and it will cause them to become violent".Ozman also mentions using an AI tool, riverside.fm, to edit out dead air from his podcasts, highlighting how "these new tools have made my life easier".A significant portion of the episode revolves around the idea that various events are "closed systems" existing on their own "movie set," populated by "crisis actors" with specific security clearances. He argues, "There's not a mix of real people and fake people in these events, or rather actors and regular civilians". Ozman uses the Metcalfe stabbing incident and the involvement of a January Sixer as an example to suggest the event is entirely fake. He also touches upon the phenomenon of influencers who are "clearly puppeteered" in these "bigger psyops," reinforcing their manufactured nature.The discussion then shifts to the recurring theme of "twins" in media and alleged hoaxes. Ozman mentions the "sink twins" and the coincidental exits of the heads of the papacy and the WEF on the same day. He also notes the appearance of twins in the movie Sinners in relation to a real-time stabbing incident, suggesting an overlap and reinforcement of the idea that events like the Austin Metcalf stabbing might be fake and easily staged with "twinsies".The first caller, Challenger Hoax (YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@challengerhoax2740)They bring up the idea of "truther bait," suggesting that misinformation, like the claim of twins in the Challenger disaster, is spread intentionally. Challenger Hoax states, "they said that there was two twins when officially there's no twins they never said they were twins ever that's just like misdirection". Ozman finds this "fascinating" and agrees with the concept of truth or bait, where channels might promote debunkable information. He wonders if they are "walking around with self-discrediting talking points or examples of evidence of hoaxery without even knowing it?".Ozman discusses the mass media as a "psychological abuser and a liar" that triggers people and potentially feeds off their negative emotional energy. He believes, "Big brother is a narcissist". The idea of overlapping characters in different psyops is explored, noting that Luigi Mangione shares a prison consultant with Harvey Weinstein, and the same coroner might handle autopsies for high-profile fake events.The concept of "predictive programming" is also a significant theme. Ozman discusses the numerous connections between fiction, such as Back to the Future, and real-world events like 9/11. He states, "The preponderance of evidence supports our claims. You're free to examine that. But you would be very hard pressed to come up with a way to deny the amount of predictive programming in Back to the Future for 9-11". He also touches upon The Simpsons and Family Guy as potential "vectors for predictive programming". Ozman mentions the uncanny way life seems to imitate movies with "impossible timing".The significance of numbers like "113" is discussed with Challenger Hoax, linking it to Robert Anton Wilson, the dog star Sirius, chaos, and secret societies. Ozman explains that Wilson "correlates the number 23 with the dog star".Towards the end, Ozman makes predictions based on his analysis, suggesting to "keep our eyes on a sudden unexpected exit of Laura Loomer from the world stage" and a potential disaster involving the "Space Needle in particular, having some kind of a disaster. And that's scheduled for 6-11". He emphasizes that they are "just documenting what is and the seeming prophetic nature of the media" rather than speculating.Donate

In this episode, we had a deep-dive conversation with Courtney O'Brien, founder of The Outlier Initiative, a boutique branding consultancy serving beverage brands ready to break out of the mould.She spent over 20 years at some of the biggest beverage companies in the world — think Coca-Cola, Danone, and Gallo — where she didn't just market brands… she built category leaders. Now, she champions challenger beverage brands ready to stand out through strategic positioning, sharp storytelling, and a deeply human-centred approach.Meet Courtney:Courtney launched The Outlier Initiative after decades in corporate brand management, where she built her reputation as a go-to expert in brand positioning and cultural relevance. She discovered her "superpower" was guiding brands to self-actualise — helping them become the most compelling versions of themselves. Now, she brings that strategic clarity to start-ups and founders who want to disrupt without losing their soul.Branding is Not Tactics:One of the biggest misconceptions Courtney tackles? That branding equals marketing tactics. She emphasises the importance of developing a clear, compelling brand message before jumping into tools like TikTok, email, or influencer partnerships. Strategy should drive execution — not the other way around.Big vs. Small: How Challenger Brands Can Win: Courtney reveals the strategic advantages small brands have over their larger counterparts:Ability to move faster and take risksHigh-touch, unscalable actions like direct customer feedbackAuthentic founder stories that big brands can't replicateThe Foundational Process: Courtney walks us through her 3-phase approach:Learning: Market and competitive landscape, consumer behaviours, and category perceptionPositioning: Mapping the white space and defining emotional resonanceMessaging & Tactics: Crafting a consumer-first narrative before choosing any marketing channelsA Masterclass in Consumer Psychology:Drawing on frameworks like StoryBrand, Courtney explains how to make your customer the hero. She stresses the need for brands to get crystal clear on the problem they solve — not just describe their product features.Personal Branding for Founders:The conversation naturally extends into personal branding. Courtney shares her journey applying her own brand-building process to herself after 15 years in the corporate world — and why every founder should do the same.Want to learn more from Courtney?Connect with Courtney O'Brien:

Becoming an astronaut now or in the past was and remains a strict and demanding process. One needs 1,000 hours of pilot-in-command time in a jet aircraft, or two years of relevant professional training, along with a master's degree in STEM fields (not all degrees count), or a Ph.D. and test pilot training, etc. This is just to apply, not to mention 20/20 vision and meeting strict anthropometric requirements, before going through years of tough training. Astronauts are, in essence, the best of the best. And since American space work in particular got off the ground both men and women have made an impact in areas where others would simply not succeed. Therefore it is odd that Jeff Bezos is using his Blue Origin New Shepard rocket, actually shaped like a real penis, to shoot his girlfriend, Lauren Sánchez, and a crew of women into a suborbital flight for 15 minutes in the name of ‘women'. Sánchez, who is a trained pilot, will lead the crew, stating: “It's going to be women who are making a difference in the world and who are impactful and have a message to send.” But perhaps Bezos, Sánchez, and corporate media have forgotten about the countless pioneering women from all over the world who have already done what Blue Origin seeks to do as part of what could be just a PR stunt using women as the hook - Bezos, after all, did cheat on his ex-wife. For example, Kalpana Chawla, the first Indian astronaut, with two advanced engineering degrees and a Ph.D. in aerospace engineering, pioneered vertical take-off and landing concepts now being used by… SpaceX and Bezos' Blue Origin. Peggy Whitson holds the record for the most cumulative days in space period at 665. Christina Koch holds the record for the longest extended stay in space for a woman - 328 days. She also participated with Jessica Meir in the first all-female spacewalk. Kate Rubins was the first astronaut period to sequence DNA in space. Eileen Collins earned four degrees in STEM, economics and management while finding time to become a U.S. AF pilot, and eventually become the first woman ever to pilot a space shuttle. She also docked with the Russian space station and facilitated the deployment of the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The first African American woman in space, Mae Jemison, born in 1956 in Alabama went on to earn an engineering degree in her teens, and a doctorate shortly after, before becoming an astronaut and carrying out 44 science experiments in space. Nicole Mann become the first Native woman in space in 2022. Then there is the first American woman in space, Sally Ride, with a Ph.D. in physics and several NASA missions to her name. She also investigated the Challenger disaster and the Columbia crash. The first two women in space, however, were Russian, paving the way for all others: Valentina Tereshkova and Svetlana Savitskaya. Dismissing this inspiring history demeans and degrades and erases women from history.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

It's the last in our run of episodes about Antarctica. We are all back home, and we promise to stop bothering the poor continent.   Thom couldn't talk about it until after the press release, but the Schmidt Ocean Institute cruise he was on had to look at the seabed under a 150-meter-thick ice shelf right as it moved out of the way. We talked to the science leads on that cruise, Patricia Esquete and Sasha Montelli. We learned about the hydrography and glaciology of that region and then the seabed and communities that were revealed when the ice shelf moved away.   We're really trying to make this project self-sustaining, so we have started looking for ways to support the podcast. Here's a link to our page on how to support us, from the free options to becoming a patron of the show. We want to say a huge thank you to those patrons who have already pledged to support us: Ryker and Kerry Jowett  Thanks again for tuning in; we'll deep-see you next time!   Check out our podcast merch here!

Hour 3 – The Drive explained how some national pundits are already starting to believe there is a challenger to the Chiefs in the AFC West.

In this episode, we sit down with Khalid El Khatib, the Chief Marketing Officer of Consumer Reports, one of America's most trusted and oldest consumer advocacy organizations. Khalid unpacks how he's transitioning Conaumer Reports from a “publisher” mindset to a platform strategy that emphasizes product-led growth, user-centric advocacy, and yes, the iconic lab testing (including a cat-hair-laden robotic vacuum test).One of the key takeaways here is how community can be a company's competitive moat, and how bringing in fresh digital tactics doesn't have to mean losing an 88-year legacy of credibility. Another recurring theme is the intergenerational aspect of CR's brand story - how do you engage a loyal but aging membership and a new crop of digitally native consumers at the same time? If you've ever wondered how to future-proof an institution while staying true to its roots, then this conversation is for you!Watch the video version of this podcast on Youtube ▶️: https://youtu.be/K-OrSj6ioiA

It's the last in our run of episodes about Antarctica. We are all back home, and we promise to stop bothering the poor continent. Alan and Thom discuss returning to an inbox of horrors and readjusting to time away. More cable cutting in our news updates, blobfish being voted fish of the year, and the tongue-eating louse potentially being invertebrate of the year. We don't want to say we influence the news, but it seems a little spooky. Thom couldn't talk about it until after the press release, but the Schmidt Ocean Institute cruise he was on had to look at the seabed under a 150-meter-thick ice shelf right as it moved out of the way. We talked to the science leads on that cruise, Patricia Esquete and Sasha Montelli. We learned about the hydrography and glaciology of that region and then the seabed and communities that were revealed when the ice shelf moved away. Kat and Thom updated us on what it was like to join a tourist expedition ship, and we grabbed a Coffee With Andrew to learn what it was like to dive almost 5km deep in a sub.

Political campaign charter aircraft, tariffs and the aerospace industry, Boeings NGAD fighter contract, the adaptive cycle engines to power it, corrosion issues on A220 jetliners, the shutdown of Heathrow, and the resilience of airports to power outages. Guest Jonathan Tasler is Vice President at Advanced Aviation Team. He manages charter aircraft for political campaigns and high-net-worth VIPs. We learn what is involved in transporting presidential and other political candidates, and Jonathan tells us some interesting stories. Jonathan describes how he ensures that a political campaign charter is flown safely to the intended destination on time. We learn that the charter requirements can change as a campaign progresses and presumptive candidates emerge. For example, larger dedicated planes with special campaign livery can become necessary. Jonathan explains how critical it is that candidates do not miss major events. Sometimes he even arranges backup planes and standby crews. We also discover why some charter airlines don't want to be involved in political campaigns and others are happy to be part of a campaign. Jonathan also tells us about campaign security and how the Secret Service may participate in some flights. Jonathan is a veteran of political campaign charters. He grew up in the industry as his father coordinated all the charters for the Bush/Quayle campaign. Over the years, Jonathan has worked with both Republicans and Democrats, including George W. Bush, John Kerry, Mitt Romney, Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, and many others. He coordinated aircraft charters for a major party candidate in every US Presidential Campaign cycle since the Bush/Cheney campaign in 2000. Find Advanced Aviation Team at their website, on X, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. Some political campaign charter incidents: John Edwards' Campaign Plane Makes Emergency Landing - John Edwards' Boeing 727-200 had to make an emergency landing after a press member's battery exploded in the overhead bins. Ann Romney's Plane Makes Emergency Landing - Ann Romney had electrical fire and smoke in the cabin of Challenger 600 and made an emergency landing in DEN. John Kerry's Boeing 757-200 developed a crack in the windshield in flight. This subsequently developed into a complete spiderweb. Obama plane incident could have been disaster - Barack Obama onboard Midwest Airlines MD81 had control surface issues after an inflatable slide opened in flight. ‘Several failures' led to 2016 plane crash with Vice President Mike Pence, investigation says - Mike Pence's Eastern Airlines B737 overran the runway at LGA. (Not an Advanced Aviation Team contract.) Aviation News Trump's Tariffs Could Deal a Blow to Boeing and the Aerospace Industry The aerospace industry is concerned that tariffs on aluminum and steel will raise manufacturing costs. There is particular concern about tariffs on Canadian and Mexican products since the North American aerospace supply chain is highly integrated. At a recent investor conference, Boeing's chief financial officer said the direct effects of the tariffs on Boeing would be limited, however, they could impact companies further down the aerospace supply chain. Those suppliers have struggled with material and labor shortages. Kevin Michaels, a past guest and a managing director of the AeroDynamic Advisory consulting firm, said the tariffs could raise costs for the aerospace industry by about $5 billion annually. Boeing wins Air Force contract for NGAD next-gen fighter, dubbed F-47 The U.S. Air Force has awarded the contract to develop the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) fighter. Lockheed Martin competed with Boeing for the F-47 sixth-generation fighter, while Northrop Grumman dropped out of the competition in 2023. The Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) contract is thought to be worth about $20 billion.

Jake Jensen Stuns Audiences with Riveting Performance in "Challengers""Challengers" showcased Jake Jensen's remarkable performance as Finn Larsen, a character who brought the fierce competition of professional tennis to life.Actor, producer, and host Jake Jensen recently captivated audiences with his portrayal of Finn Larsen in the film "Challengers." Directed by Luca Guadagnino and featuring Zendaya and Josh O'Connor, Jensen delivered a compelling performance in this intense sports drama.In "Challengers," Jake Jensen played Finn Larsen, a trash-talking Scandinavian professional tennis player on the Challengers circuit. The film delved into the gritty and competitive world of lower-tier tennis tournaments, where players fought tooth and nail for ranking points and minimal prize money, all in hopes of advancing to more prestigious competitions.In a pivotal locker room scene, Finn sarcastically congratulated fellow player Patrick Zweig (Josh O'Connor) with a biting, "Good match, Zweig," before turning his taunts towards another player, Gonzu (Alex Bancila). Finn's mockery sent Gonzu into a fit of rage, smashing his racket against a bench, vividly portraying the cutthroat atmosphere of the Challenger tour. This scene underscored the lengths players like Finn went to unsettle their opponents, both on and off the court.Jake Jensen's portrayal of Finn Larsen captured the raw determination and psychological warfare inherent in professional tennis. Finn was a character who thrived on getting under his opponent's skin, showcasing Jensen's ability to embody complex and dynamic roles.About Jake Jensen:Jake Jensen is a multifaceted talent, known for his work as an actor, producer, and host. With a career spanning various media, Jensen has made significant strides in the entertainment industry. His projects have included collaborations with world-renowned photographer Fabian Di Corcia and numerous other notable figures.To View This Episode- https://youtu.be/3MFRs3oHWrA#philfriedrich #whoknewinthemoment #Jakejensen #Challengers #zendaya #actor #podcast

Welp, dudes are getting fillers now, but it's in a different area than women. They're getting their packages pumped up, and we have some questions for the fellas who are shelling out thousands of dollars for more girth, bigger scrotums, and larger resting packages. Susie talks about the Luther Vandross documentary and the tragedy of being famous for romance when your own love life isn't working out. We revisit a study on strippers that claims our menstrual cycles demonstrate a period of "heat" and our attractiveness to men. We hear about a man whose credit card was stolen and used to buy a winning lottery ticket, and his attempts to bargain with the thieves. Susie read a book about the Challenger space disaster, and how there was a 40 year cover-up that kept us all in the dark about the fate of the astronauts on board. We discuss the strange disappearance of Hannah Kobayashi who went missing after sending strange messages and a missed flight, created a nationwide manhunt, resulted in the death of her family member, and ended with the weirdest possible outcome. Plus, we learn whether therapists are judging your appearance and clothing, and why some people are buying clothes to impress them.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
