He emphasizes the importance of authenticity in sales, discussing how genuine connections can lead to successful business relationships. Chris also highlights the honorable nature of sales as a profession, focusing on the role of salespeople in helping clients make informed decisions. In this conversation, Chris Jennings and The Accidental Entrepreneur discuss the intricate balance between personal relationships and business, emphasizing the importance of confidence and trust in navigating these dynamics. They explore the significance of practice in sales, the necessity of building a referral network, and the challenges posed by modern communication barriers. The dialogue highlights the value of consistent engagement through 'Go Live' dialogues and the transformative power of mindset in achieving success. Through shared experiences and success stories, they inspire listeners to take actionable steps towards their business goals. Takeaways Chris's first entrepreneurial venture began at age 12. Corporate training can significantly enhance personal development. Authenticity in sales leads to better client relationships. Sales is about helping people, not just closing deals. Many people feel awkward during sales interactions. A great boss can make a significant difference in corporate life. Transitioning to entrepreneurship requires careful planning and confidence. Sales training can help individuals become more comfortable in their roles. Building genuine connections can lead to long-term business relationships. Sales is an honorable profession that serves to help others. A lot of it's confidence, right? People have self-limiting beliefs around mixing business with personal. You got to get into action and go do something. The easy stuff doesn't pop into their head. You need four hours a day of Go Live dialogue. The best way to do business is through referrals. You just have to do it. Every experience teaches you something. You can turn your business around if you just do the things. You have to find something that fits you.

In the tradition of Dale Clark's memorable fan publications, comes the Dark Shadows Podcast of Questions & Answers volume THREE! In this installment, Penny Dreadful addresses the following questions: How did Roxanne become a vampire in the unaltered 1840? Why isn't Chris Jennings' brother Tom also werewolf? Was Angelique really at Collinwood in the original run of 1897, as we see in a flashback? Is it an error that silver bullets can be used to destroy vampires on Dark Shadows? How can Barnabas be rendered unconscious in a car accident if he's a vampire? Why does Josette's music box play two different themes? What happened to the blackmail money that Elizabeth Collins Stoddard deposited into a Swiss bank account for Jason McGuire? When the ghost of Sarah Collins says, “Those who were here before have come back, and they're angry, and there's someone in this house they want to destroy,” to whom is she referring? The episode ends with promotion for other Dark Shadows and horror-related podcasts, shows, books, and projects.

After 4 years of extended drought, spring and summer rains finally provide relief to the US and Canadian prairies, but what does it mean for the fall flight? Dr. Scott Stephens joins co-hosts Chris Jennings and Dr. Mike Brasher for a mid-July update on breeding habitat conditions across the prairies and boreal forest. Because much of the rain came after ducks had settled and managers expect a relatively small breeding population count, waterfowlers probably shouldn't expect a banner crop this fall. Nevertheless, renesting and brood survival should benefit, and wetland conditions heading into fall will be better than they've been in years.www.ducks.org/DUPodcast
