“I'm not just a carpenter.”That's the energy Sam Aitken brings to this episode, and it is exactly what the construction industry needs more of. Carpentry is not a fallback job. It is craft, problem-solving, and leadership on-site. Sam is also using social media to show what pride in the trade actually looks like, without turning it into a glossy performance.We sit down with Sam to talk about his journey from Carisbrook to completing his apprenticeship in Ballarat, and why he stayed working with the same boss who trained him. We also unpack what that kind of loyalty says about standards, mentorship, and doing things properly, especially in an industry where good guidance can make or break a career.Sam pushes back hard on the idea of being “just a carpenter”. Whether he is framing, finishing, or solving the tricky problems nobody else wants, he treats the work like it matters, because it does. We talk about how good carpenters understand sequencing, tolerances, and how their decisions affect every other trade on site, and why attention to detail lifts the standard of the whole build.We also get into the future of carpentry, including specialisation, better pathways, and what it takes to develop mastery instead of just speed. Sam shares why teaching apprentices the “why” matters, and his message to new tradies is simple. Take pride in the job, keep learning, challenge the norm, and do not shrink your ambition just because someone told you it is “just carpentry”.

Steven Cohen breaks down the difference between the science of success and the art of fulfillment — and why mastering one without the other can quietly sabotage your life. Drawing from his own experiences in business and personal growth, Steven shares how success can be reverse engineered through clarity, focus, and disciplined action — but fulfillment requires something deeper. If you're building aggressively in 2026 but feeling resistance, burnout, or misalignment, this episode will help you recalibrate your focus and reconnect to why you started in the first place. ⏱️ Chapter Markers: 02:15 – The Science of Success 07:00 – The Art of Fulfillment & Why Achievement Isn't Enough 09:20 – Push vs Pull Motivation 12:00 – Control the Controllables 14:50 – Freedom Between Stimulus & Response 17:30 – Protecting Your Mind in a Distracted World 19:45 – Life by Design vs Life by Default 23:20 – Raise Your Frequency in 2026 If this episode changed the way you think about success, fulfillment, or personal freedom, like, comment, and subscribe for more conversations on wealth, mindset, and designing a life on your terms. #MillennialMillionaire #StevenCohen #SuccessMindset #PersonalFreedom #WealthBuilding #EntrepreneurMindset #HighPerformance #Fulfillment #LifeByDesign #MentalDiscipline

High-performance building is not just about premium products. It is about the system. In this episode, we sit down with Sven Maxa from Maxa Design to unpack what Passive House building really looks like behind the scenes, from airtightness targets to the practical realities of delivering high-performance homes on site.This conversation flips the usual format, with Sven taking the lead and putting us (Hamish and Matt) in the hot seat. We get into the details that actually make or break a Passive House project, including airtightness testing, verification, contract clarity, and what happens when documentation looks great in renders but does not hold up on a building site.A major theme is collaboration between the architect, designer, builder, and trades. Passive House and building science only works when the whole team is aligned early, with transparent cost planning, clear communication, and strong documentation to avoid rework, delays, and budget blowouts.We wrap by looking at what needs to change in the Australian construction industry to lift standards at scale. Better legislation, better education, and a stronger baseline for residential construction.

A history of ransomware is more than just dates and names—it's the story of how criminals evolved from mailing infected floppy disks in 1989 to running billion-dollar enterprises that cripple entire organizations. On this episode of The Backup Wrap-up, I sit down with Dr. Mike Saylor, my co-author on "Learning Ransomware Response and Recovery," to trace this evolution from the AIDS Trojan to today's sophisticated double extortion attacks.We talk about how ransomware went from requiring physical distribution to scaling globally through the internet, how cryptocurrency made anonymous payment possible, and why the shift from tape to disk backups created vulnerabilities that attackers now exploit first. You'll learn about the wild west days when IT focused on building systems without understanding how bad guys attack, the emergence of ransomware-as-a-service that democratized cybercrime, and why modern attacks target your backups before encrypting your production systems.If you've ever wondered why backup immutability matters or how we got to a point where ransomware is inevitable rather than hypothetical, this episode connects those dots. Dr. Mike and I also discuss why having backups is still critical even with double extortion threats, and what you need to know about defending your backup systems in today's threat environment.Chapter Markers:00:00:00 - Introduction00:01:19 - Welcome and Guest Introduction00:02:19 - Curtis's First Ransomware Memory00:03:40 - The AIDS Trojan: First Ransomware (1989)00:04:42 - The Wild West Era: Late 1990s Security00:08:05 - Y2K and Budget Shifts00:11:26 - The Transition from Tape to Disk Backups00:15:45 - How Disk Backups Created Vulnerabilities00:19:30 - The Rise of Cryptolocker and Bitcoin00:23:15 - Ransomware as a Service Emerges00:27:40 - WannaCry and NotPetya00:31:20 - Double Extortion: The Game Changer00:35:10 - Why Backups Still Matter00:37:55 - Should You Just Pay the Ransom?00:40:01 - Defending Your Backup System

Broad Match - Danny and Adam break down Amazon's financial trajectory ahead of the Q4 2025 earnings call, exploring why Prime has effectively tapped out, where the retail business is heading, and why Rufus may be Amazon's most important bet for the future of e-commerce. Host: Danny McMillan Co-Host: Adam "Heist" Runquist Episode Summary With Amazon's Q4 2025 earnings call on the horizon, Adam digs into the historical financials of Amazon's retail business to understand where the company has been and where it is heading. The picture is clear: Prime membership has reached over 200 million Americans, covering roughly 75% of the adult population, and growth has slowed to just 3-4% annually. The remaining unsubscribed population is largely economically unfeasible to convert. The numbers tell a compelling story across Amazon's retail business units. First-party retail has matured and is effectively flat or declining. Third-party seller fees have grown 190% since 2019, far outpacing the 75% growth in Amazon's own retail — but sellers are now squeezed to single-digit net margins with little room for further extraction. Advertising remains the standout at 56 billion dollars in 2024 with 300% growth over five years, yet its long-term sustainability depends on healthy seller participation. This sets up what Adam describes as Amazon's innovators dilemma. Danny and Adam agree that Rufus represents Amazon's play to shift from a purchase destination to a product discovery and research platform, effectively competing with Google, YouTube, and Reddit for the consideration phase. The episode closes with a rallying call for sellers to focus on extreme efficiency, leveraging AI tools to optimise listings at a level of sophistication that was impossible even a year ago, and to prepare for a market where fewer sellers will survive but those who do will be significantly rewarded. Key Takeaways Amazon Prime has effectively saturated the US market at over 200 million members, with the remaining population largely economically unfeasible to convert, signalling the end of Amazon's biggest historical growth engine. Third-party seller fees have grown 190% since 2019 compared to 75% growth in Amazon's own retail, but sellers operating on single-digit margins means Amazon has limited room to extract further on a per-unit basis. Amazon's advertising business pulled in 56 billion dollars in 2024 with 300% five-year growth, but its future depends on whether enough healthy sellers remain to sustain ad spend. Rufus is positioned as Amazon's answer to the innovators dilemma — shifting from a purchase-only platform to a product discovery and research destination to drive more visits, higher conversion, and larger basket sizes. AI tools now allow sellers to accomplish listing optimisation work in hours that previously took weeks, making sophisticated conversion optimisation accessible to small teams without additional headcount. The market is entering a consolidation phase where fewer sellers will survive, but those who maintain cash reserves, optimise ruthlessly, and adapt to the changing landscape will benefit as competitors exit.

We were never designed to do life in a vacuum. In this kickoff to our Family pillar series, Pastor Andy explores the radical reality of Acts 2:42—a community so devoted to one another that it changed history. We often view family through the lens of our past experiences—some beautiful, some broken. But Kingdom family isn't about finding a perfect environment; it's about taking personal responsibility to create one. In this message, we confront the modern barriers to connection (technology, busyness, and walls masquerading as boundaries) and issue a challenge: move from being a consumer of community to a cultivator of it. Revival is sustained in family. Are you ready to show up?

Roger Urwin, Global Head of Investment Content at Willis Towers Watson, reflects on how leading asset owners are rethinking strategic asset allocation amid faster regime change, rising systemic risk, and growing complexity. In a conversation hosted by Mona Naqvi, Managing Director of Research, Advocacy, and Standards at CFA Institute, he draws on decades of experience advising global funds to explain why a total portfolio mindset is gaining traction—and how it reframes goals, governance, and investment decision-making. The discussion explores what it means to invest through a truly holistic lens, why mindset and organizational design matter as much as models, and how the investment profession may need to evolve for a more uncertain world.

Hearing God's voice isn't reserved for the spiritual elite—it is the birthright of every son and daughter. In this final message of our Supernatural pillar series, Dan Weber breaks down the practical mechanics of hearing the Father, moving us from mystery to maturity. Using 1 Corinthians 14 and his own journey from "Roofer Dan" to revivalist, he demystifies the prophetic process. He explains that hearing the voice (Revelation) is just the beginning. The real stewardship happens in understanding what it means (Interpretation) and knowing when to act (Application). If you've ever wondered, "Was that God, me, or the pizza I ate?" this message will equip you with a simple filter to distinguish the Father's voice from the noise. It's time to move past the fear of getting it wrong and into the joy of conversation with the One who is always speaking.

Recapping The Dead Files “Am I Crazy?” (Season 1 Episode 6) which aired 2011. This week, we kick off Season 7 by revisiting “Am I Crazy?”, a case that asks a familiar question with an uncomfortable twist: is the homeowner losing her grip on reality, or uncovering a long-buried truth no one wanted exposed?In Great Falls, Montana, Kelly believes she's being contacted by the spirit of Valeria Gibson, a woman erased from the historical record and dismissed in death as “hysterical.”Through dreams, intuition, and a growing pile of unsettling clues, Kelly uncovers a story that doesn't match the official version, and medium Amy Allan corroborates that story.As Steve Dischiavi digs for missing blueprints, vanished records, and suspicious inconsistencies, a pattern emerges: when women tell the truth, history has a habit of calling them unstable. But three women—Valeria, Kelly, and Amy—tell the same story across time.She's not crazy. She's just not being believed.So… is this a haunting? A cover-up? Or both?So, grab your Nespresso, and join us where… The Activity Continues. Content Warning:We didn't find anything we thought deserved a content warning, but we will use colorful language.

A new year, a new tactic to stem the flow of npm supply chain attacks. This time, the proposal is for “Staged Publishing” which introduces a review window that a package owner must approve before a package release becomes publicly available.Vercel Labs is out with a new AI tool called json-render that lets users generate dashboards, widgets, apps, and data visualizations from prompts, and constrains the response to JSON for only components pre-defined by the user.Finally, The Simpsons character Ralph Wiggum is the biggest thing in AI coding recently. Ralph is an AI development pattern using a while loop (like a bash script) to repeatedly run an AI agent on the same task, feeding its output back as context, and forcing it to iterate until a specific completion promise is met, rather than letting the AI stop prematurely. Interesting? Yes! Useful in practice?

Conversion Monthly - The panel kicks off 2026 with predictions on AI-driven creative workflows, agentic shopping behaviours, and the tools reshaping Amazon seller operations. Host: Danny McMillan Panel: Sim Mahon, Dorian Gorski, Matt Kostan Episode Summary The newly rebranded Conversion Monthly show returns with its expert panel to discuss 2026 predictions for Amazon creative optimisation. The conversation covers how AI workflows have evolved since early 2025, with Dorian noting how N8N has become significantly more accessible through built-in AI assistants. Sim shares that his team can now create final, upload-ready main images in a single AI generation. The panel discusses agentic shopping and how AI-driven product discovery may fundamentally change conversion optimisation. Matt highlights the trend toward hyper-specific product positioning, where sellers create separate ASINs for the same product targeting different demographics. Danny introduces Claude's new Co-Work feature as a significant leap that removes technical barriers for sellers wanting to build automations. The panel agrees that "human in the loop" will be the defining phrase of 2026. Sim reveals his investment in 51 Folds, a prediction platform using Bayesian networks. Key Takeaways One-shot main images are now reality - AI image generation has reached the point where final, upload-ready Amazon images can be created in a single prompt Hyper-specific product positioning is trending - creating separate ASINs for the same product targeting different demographics aligns with AI recommendations Technical barriers to automation are evaporating - tools like Claude Co-Work and improved N8N AI assistants are making workflow automation accessible "Human in the loop" defines 2026 - the winning strategy combines automated data collection with human strategic oversight The big three AI providers have stabilised - Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI now dominate, reducing shiny object syndrome Video generation remains the next frontier - while image generation is solved, video still requires scene-by-scene refinement Chapter Markers 00:00 - Introduction and 2026 Outlook 00:58 - Dorian on the Pace of Change Since 2025 04:07 - N8N Accessibility and Self-Build Workflows 05:33 - One-Shot Image Generation Capabilities 07:23 - Video Generation Limitations 10:26 - Business Systems, ClickUp and Future-Proofing 14:37 - Hyper-Specific Product Positioning 20:06 - Keplo 2026 Direction 22:26 - Competitive Advantage and AI Accessibility 25:01 - The Big Three AI Providers 28:46 - 51 Folds Investment and Bayesian Prediction 33:14 - Panel 2026 Priorities 38:12 - Wrap-Up Resources Seller Sessions Website Seller Sessions YouTube Sim Mahon on LinkedIn Dorian Gorski on LinkedIn Matt Kostan on LinkedIn

As 2025 draws to a close, we reflect on a year of challenge, recovery, and renewed calling.  In this special episode, we uncover the ancient story behind Hanukkah - and how it points to the greater miracle still to come.  From a dreidel in ancient Greece to divine doors opening in modern Israel, we explore how God's covenant faithfulness continues to unfold before our eyes. The Jewish Road is stepping into a new partnership with the government of Israel - helping tell her story to the nations and helping the church understand its part in that story.  Along the way, we share updates on health, hope, and the incredible ways God is still writing the story of His people. Key Takeaways: The dreidel tells more than a children's story - it proclaims that “a great miracle happened there” and points to the greater one still to come. Hanukkah reminds us that God always preserves His people, even when the world plots their end. Prophets like Zechariah foresaw a coming deliverance that's still future and messianic. God's pattern of deliverance is consistent - He always raises a redeemer for Israel. A new partnership with Israel's government opens opportunities to help tell her story faithfully to the church. The global church must rediscover its calling to stand with the Jewish people in truth and love. God's faithfulness to Israel guarantees His faithfulness to us; the story is not over.

Be the FIRST to know about my private Mastermind Group: https://johnbunn.myflodesk.com/mentorship In this episode of the Shifting Focus Podcast, I sit down with wedding photographer and educator Summer Grace to talk about burnout, sustainability, and what it actually takes to build a business that lasts. Summer shares how she transitioned from elopements to larger weddings, how COVID reshaped her priorities, and the role social media played in her early growth. We talk about designing intentional client experiences, why her engagement sessions are built differently, and how in person connection continues to matter in an increasingly online industry. We also dive into Summer School, the educational side of her brand, and how she is building community and long term support for photographers through education and shared experience. This conversation is about choosing longevity over pressure, creativity over constant growth, and building a wedding business that supports your life instead of consuming it. If you are feeling stretched thin, creatively drained, or questioning the pace of your business, this episode offers a clear look at what another path can look like.   Summer Grace Website https://summergracephoto.com/  Summer Grace Instagram https://www.instagram.com/summergrace.photo/  Summer School Education https://www.instagram.com/the_summerschool/  Summer Grace Podcast https://summergracephoto.com/podcast-shownotes

Today's episode starts with a little studio chaos

In a world where Israel is headline news every day, most people are trying to interpret events through a fog of bias, misinformation, and instant reaction culture.  We sat down with longtime Jerusalem-based journalist Nicole Jansezian to ask a simple question that's not simple at all:  How do we know what's actually true?  What unfolded was an inside look at the fractured media landscape inside Israel and the ideological forces shaping the region. Nicole helps us slow down and understand why the Middle East defies the easy categories most Westerners reach for.  Israel's political divisions don't map onto America's left-right spectrum. Palestinian society is not monolithic. And both sides live with historic, cultural, and religious dynamics that rarely show up in the headlines.  When we oversimplify, we miss the deeper story - and the deeper human reality. This conversation is for anyone who wants discernment in an age of propaganda. We explore why speed has replaced accuracy, why influencers often outrun truth, and why we need a long view shaped by Scripture, not by algorithms.  For Christians seeking to understand Israel, this isn't just geopolitics - it's about returning to the story God has been telling since Genesis and learning to see the world the way He sees it. Key Takeaways Israel's internal political spectrum is far more complex than the American left–right divide. Headlines often frame events without context, leading to widespread misunderstanding. Influencer-driven “news” prioritizes speed and virality over verification. Propaganda is not always overt; sometimes it's subtle, soft influence that shapes perception. Ideology - religious, historic, territorial - drives Middle Eastern decisions more than economics. The media environment inside Israel is deeply divided, with competing narratives shaping public opinion. Christians must pursue discernment by slowing down, asking better questions, and grounding their understanding in Scripture.
