Homelessness among pregnant and parenting people in Canada is rising, with grave consequences for both parents and children. On this episode of the CMAJ Podcast, Dr. Mojola Omole and Dr. Blair Bigham explore the scope of the problem and the supports that can improve outcomes for parents and children.Dr. Stéphanie Manoni-Millar, co-author of the CMAJ commentary Tackling the crisis of homelessness amongst pregnant and parenting people in Canada, explains who is most affected and what risks they face. She describes a predominantly young population, many of whom are homeless or experiencing precarious housing. She highlights the health consequences for children, including developmental delays, infections, and increased rates of anxiety and depression, and stresses the importance of affordable housing and integrated services to support families.Nerina Chiodo, a social worker in Toronto with MotherCraft Breaking the Cycle, shares insights from more than two decades of supporting pregnant people who are homeless. She describes what stability can look like when housing, addiction treatment, mental health services, and social supports are coordinated, an approach often described as wraparound care. Chiodo also reflects on the stigma many of her clients face in medical settings and underscores the importance of small acts of validation and compassion from clinicians.Both guests emphasized that people experiencing homelessness during pregnancy often want to parent and demonstrate resilience despite immense challenges. They urged clinicians to approach this population without stigma, to recognize the risks faced by children, and to understand how even brief, supportive interactions can influence whether patients return for care.Comments or questions?

Listeners hear practical plays for lead handling, including the first six touches, CRM workflow, and CMA-based value for property verification with tools like Property Plus. The discussion dives into strategies such as calling leads immediately after review, using unbranded thank-you cards, and leveraging video outreach with Dub to track engagement. They explore the power of multi-step mail campaigns (six to twelve months), the role of Probate Mastery and Probate Cash offers, and how to blend attorney and title-partner support without slowing momentum. Real-world examples highlight how a well-timed call, a well-crafted CMA, and a genuine service mindset can unlock new opportunities, even in challenging markets of probate, divorce, and distressed properties. This session emphasizes taking concrete action, sharing wins, and applying a repeatable process that builds trust, reduces friction, and increases closing probability across probate, pre-probate, and aging-in-place niches.  Key Takeaways:  - Use Property Plus to verify property types before outreach.  - Call leads immediately after review and log results in your CRM.  - Send unbranded cards after meaningful conversations to stay memorable.  - Use video messages and track engagement via a platform like Dub. - Implement a six-month (and twelve-month) letter campaign to nurture probate leads.  - Pair outreach with attorney or title-company support to close more deals.  To learn more, visit https://www.AllTheLeads.com or call (844) 532-3369 to check how many leads are available in your market.  #ProbateMarketing #LeadGeneration #RealEstateInvesting #RealEstateLeadsPrevious episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

Omnicom and IPG have kept their cards close to their chests while nearing completion of the biggest acquisition in advertising history. Set to close in the second half of this year, the merger-acquisition has now secured 15 out of the 18 regulatory approvals required, including recently with UK watchdog the CMA, in early August. Under the terms of the all-share deal, Omnicom said at the start of August it was set to pay only $9bn for IPG, down from $13.3bn when the takeover was first agreed on 9 December, as the stock prices of both companies have fallen. But the actual price will only be decided once the deal is finalised.In this episode, the Campaign team discuss what's next for Omnicom's takeover of IPG, how it fares against its holding company peers and the priorities for the current chief executives John Wren and Philippe Krakowsky, plus what it means for the agencies and people within the soon-to-be biggest holding company in advertising. This discussion follows on from a previous episode which asked: Will the Omnicom-IPG merger really happen?Hosted by tech editor Lucy Shelley, this episode features Campaign's editor-in-chief Gideon Spanier, editor Maisie McCabe and media editor Beau Jackson.Further reading:Omnicom and IPG's leaders could learn from WPP's 2025IPG cuts 2400 jobs in first half of 2025 ahead of Omnicom takeoverIPG profits drop as UK growth falls 9.7%Omnicom's Duncan Painter to lead data reorganisation ahead of IPG takeoverJames Temperley leaves IPG as part of restructureAndrea Suarez becomes latest media agency chief to leave IPG MediabrandsJohn Wren on his vision for a bigger, better OmnicomIPG downgrades UK ad market growth to 6.4% in 2025Troy Ruhanen: 'I wouldn't have taken OAG job if it was all about efficiency and smashing things'Omnicom and IPG chiefs visit UK to sell merger to staff and pitch consultants Hosted on Acast.

Looking for a fresh take on ethics in the business world? In this insightful episode of Count Me In, host Adam Larson sits down with acclaimed professors and Curt Verschoor Feature of the Year authors Douglas Boyle, Daniel Haggerty, and Dana Hermanson. The trio brings their unique expertise—and plenty of real-world wisdom—to a lively conversation about what “virtue” really means in accounting, finance, and leadership. Daniel traces the roots of virtue all the way from Greek philosophy to modern business, showing why courage, strength, and excellence matter just as much today. Doug and Dana share practical examples from their teaching and research, exploring why business education often misses the mark on building character—and how professionals at any stage can start making ethical choices that go beyond simply following rules. Tune in for a thought-provoking, accessible discussion that will have you rethinking what it truly means to lead with integrity.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2017 conversation with Vince Gill. ABOUT VINCE GILLMulti-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter Vince Gill launched his solo career in the mid-1980s, hitting the Top 10 on Billboard's country singles chart a remarkable 25 times. All but one of those hits was written or co-written by Gill, and a dozen of his compositions have been nominated for either CMA Song of the Year, ACM Song of the Year, or the Best Country Song Grammy. These include “When I Call Your Name,” “Look At Us,” “Pocket Full of Gold,” “When Love Finds You,” “High Lonesome Sound,” “If You Have Forever in Mind,” “Feels Like Love,” and “Threaten Me With Heaven.” “Go Rest High on That Mountain” won both the CMA Song of the Year and the Best Country Song Grammy, while “I Still Believe in You” won the Best Country Song Grammy, as well as both the CMA and the ACM's Song of the Year awards. Though he's won four in total, Vince is the only songwriter to ever win three consecutive Song of the Year awards from the CMA. He has won more Grammy awards, with over 20 trophies, than any male country performer in history. These include two Best Country Song wins, as well as a 2017 win for Best American Roots Song for “Kid Sister,” which was recorded by Gill's band, The Time Jumpers. He has won eight ACM awards and 18 CMA awards, including Vocalist of the Year five years in a row and Entertainer of the Year two years in a row. Other highlights from his long list of hit singles include the #1 hits “Don't Let Our Love Start Slippin' Away,” “One More Last Chance,” and “Tryin' to Get Over You.” In addition to writing his own material, Vince's songs have been recorded by Loretta Lynn, Bob Seger, John Denver, Mary Chapin Carpenter, John Prine, Willie Nelson, Michael McDonald, LeAnn Rimes, and Alabama, who topped the country charts with his “Here We Are.” Vince was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2005, and the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2007. In 2014, he was named a BMI Icon, one of only twelve country writers ever honored with the prestigious award.

My older Sister Jenny passed away on August 12th from Cancer. She was in her home, surrounded by love ones. The cancer was extremely aggressive and there wasn't a lot time to prepare. I did an episode a few weeks ago and touched on our last visit. That visit my sister and I played it all out and shared our deep love, recounting the years of laughs, advice and tough conversations. Jenny made me a better man, Husband and Father. She inspired me to find a direction in life, supported my creative endeavors and was a champion of my decisions in life. This was an important episode to me and I had the great opportunity to tell fun stories and talk about my dear sister Jenny. P.S.

Today I am speaking with Dave Chase from Health Rosetta, and I'm asking Dave Chase three inferno-level burning questions—questions that, across the country, many self-insured employers are trying to find the answers to. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. Now, an important underlying point that comes across loud and clear but remains unsaid, actually, in the conversation that follows is this: There are amazing brokers and EBCs (employee benefit consultants) and benefits advisors or TPAs (third-party administrators) who put their clients first and have the receipts (ie, they have data and they're willing to share it to prove this). And then there are those with the exact same titles, often enough, who are very much the opposite of this but super charming, I'm sure. I mean, it'd be a stretch to assume that the same roles don't apply to brokers or EBCs that apply for titles like hospital administrators where there's great ones and really not great ones; but everybody often gets lumped into the same category or even the term hospitals. Each of these terms is a broad stroke and contains multitudes. And do listen to the bonus clip from two weeks ago with Jonathan Baran for just more on this point. We dig into it for like 10 minutes or something. I also talk about this same concept in an upcoming episode with Mick Connors, MD. So, keep that underlying and unsaid theme in mind because a lot of these questions do boil down to, How do you figure out who's on the up-and-up and who's not? And if you need an example of the latter category, listen to the show with Ann Lewandowski (EP476) about the whistleblower lawsuit or the show with AJ Loiacono (EP379) about the myriad of brokers taking $7 or $14 per script written payable by the PBM (pharmacy benefit manager) and not reported on, as far as I know. This is very much still going on today, by the way, despite the CAA (Consolidated Appropriations Act) and the 5500 forms. Alright, so, first burning question, Question 1: After seeing J&J (Johnson & Johnson) and Wells Fargo sued for fiduciary breaches, what specific questions do I need to ask my benefits advisor to prove that my benefits advisor actually protects my interests? Okay, paraphrased, this question is employers trying to figure out what they can ask or how they can figure out if their benefits advisor or broker or employee benefit consultant is really as trustworthy as they'd like you to believe they are. There's been a whole bunch of shows that circle up on this. The thing is, though, the stakes are very, very high right now. So, yeah, I can see why this is turning into a burning question for anyone worried they might get sued personally unless they can figure out how to vet, for real in writing, who their broker, EBC, or advisor serves actually at the end of the day. Question 2 that I ask Dave Chase, and I'm not giving you the answers to these questions. You gotta listen to the show. But here's the second question I ask: How do I avoid personal liability when my TPA contract has hidden conflicts that could trigger an ERISA (Employee Retirement Income Security Act) lawsuit? Kind of a continuation of Question 1, but yeah, you can tell that self-insured employer teams are really digging in here and many, many are very aware of, first of all, the extent and depth of middle people doing things like, again, allegedly taking $20 million of employer clients' money and funding their executive bonus pool. So, yeah, definitely this is another doozy of a burning question. Also on these same topics, listen to the show with Justin Leader (EP433) and also the one with Cynthia Fisher (EP457) about spread pricing. Question 3 that I ask Dave Chase: My pharmacy costs keep climbing despite PBM guarantees. How do I tell if I am being systematically overcharged? Well, if your consultants are taking your rebates to fund their executive bonus pools, as I just mentioned there's a whole show about with Ann Lewandowski, or if they're taking $7 a script for every script that gets written for your members, which, yeah, that's afoot. I've seen the contracts and the cease and desists currently flying around our industry about that one. Or read that Osceola County lawsuit against their longtime brokers. Bottom line and end of this intro, informed employer teams are, for sure, wondering these questions. But even more than just wondering, what these questions signify to me, kind of at the macro level, they're realizing the danger of kind of sitting on that knowledge or just assuming that because everybody else is doing whatever, it's somehow safe—though status quo is getting kind of more and more dicey every single day. As some additional foreshadowing, this show finishes up with Dave Chase talking about the open-source resources that are available so that you too can create a high-performance health plan where members get higher-quality healthcare and, as Dave Chase says, the cost savings for free. There are links to many things that you can get from Health Rosetta and their sister company, Nautilus. Again, all the stuff is for free. Go to nautilushealth.org. That's their main Web site.

Send us a text—This is an encore presentation of an episode previously published June 30—On this episode of the CMAJ Podcast, hosts Dr. Mojola Omole and Dr. Blair Bigham speak with two authors of the latest “Hypertension Canada guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of hypertension in adults in primary care”The discussion reflects a shared urgency: despite past successes, Canada's hypertension control rates are declining. The new guidelines aim to reverse this trend by simplifying diagnosis and treatment for frontline clinicians.Dr. Rémi Goupil, a nephrologist and clinician researcher at Sacré-Cœur Hospital in Montreal, and Dr. Greg Hundemer, a nephrologist and clinician scientist at The Ottawa Hospital, explain that the updated guideline is deliberately designed for primary care providers. They highlight key shifts: lowering the diagnostic threshold for hypertension to  ≥ 130/80 mm Hg, simplifying blood pressure targets, and emphasizing accurate, standardized measurement techniques both in clinic and at home. The guidelines were created with input from a majority-primary care committee—including family physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and patient partners—to ensure clinical applicability.Together, the panel outlines a streamlined nine-step treatment algorithm, emphasizing combination therapy as first-line pharmacologic management. They explain the evidence supporting ARB–thiazide combinations, discuss cost considerations for drug selection, and address adherence challenges. They also explore red flags for secondary hypertension and how the algorithm supports—but does not replace—clinical judgment.For physicians, this guideline offers a clear and practical roadmap: measure blood pressure correctly, aim for systolic pressure below 130 mm Hg, and use the simplified treatment sequence to improve adherence and outcomes. Designed to be easy to implement, the new approach aims to empower primary care providers to act with confidence.Join us as we explore medical solutions that address the urgent need to change healthcare.

Send us a textIron deficiency affects as many as 40% of women of reproductive age, yet the problem often goes undetected—even when patients have symptoms and complications. On this episode, Dr. Blair Bigham and Dr. Mojola Omole speak with hematologists Dr. Michelle Scholzberg and Dr. Rita Selby about their structural solution to this pervasive problem: a province-wide change to how laboratories flag ferritin results. Their article, “Diagnosis and management of iron deficiency in females”, is published in CMAJ.Dr. Michelle Scholzberg, a hematologist and clinician scientist at St. Michael's Hospital and division director of Hematology at the University of Toronto, explains why iron deficiency without anemia is clinically important, how flawed reference standards and stigma around menstruation have contributed to underdiagnosis, why screening based on hemoglobin alone misses many patients and how structural barriers within medicine have long impeded timely detection and treatment. She outlines the evidence that drove a change to the clinical decision threshold for ferritin in Ontario laboratories and describes the movement that led to the changeDr. Rita Selby, an academic hematologist and medical director of the Ontario Laboratory Medicine Program at Ontario Health, describes how change was implemented across Ontario's major private labs. She clarifies the distinction between reference ranges and clinical decision limits, and how the shift helps clinicians identify subclinical iron deficiency earlier. She also discusses anticipated challenges, such as increased demand for treatment and the need for accessible knowledge translation tools.This episode exemplifies how making structural change in Canadian medicine can be difficult, but is possible with  grassroots advocacy and inter-institutional collaboration.For more information from our sponsor, go to MedicusPensionPlan.comJoin us as we explore medical solutions that address the urgent need to change healthcare.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1091: Today we're covering how dealers are adapting to the end of EV tax credits, Tesla's push to bring robotaxis to the Bay Area, and the TSA's surprising move to let travelers keep their shoes on.Show Notes with links:With the federal EV tax credits ending September 30, dealers are shifting strategies to keep momentum in a market suddenly missing key incentives.Liza Borches of Carter Myers Automotive says, “We're planning marketing campaigns to help [customers] take advantage while they still can.”Joe Jackson, GSM at Bowman Chevrolet in Clarkston, Mich., said they are learning into leasing, “EVs are a lease-heavy vehicle; I expect the leasing to weather this a little bit better than the purchases,”EV Auto's Alex Lawrence thinks that “adoption [will] increase, but it's going to be a lumpy line.”Liza and CMA are confident about the future,, saying “We're committed to educating customers about all the other benefits. Our job is to be proactive, transparent and ready to help customers navigate this shift.”Tesla is aiming to bring its experimental robotaxi service to the San Francisco Bay Area within the next two months—pending regulatory approval.Elon Musk confirmed expansion plans on X, following a limited pilot in Austin, Texas.The Austin test fleet, with safety monitors onboard, is set to grow its service area this weekend, with an ultimate goal of 1,000 Robotaxis in several months.Tesla faces tight regulation in California, unlike the light-touch environment in Texas.Approval from the California DMV and CPUC is still needed to charge passengers for rides, although initial approvals were given in MarchA major travel headache is officially over: U.S. travelers no longer need to remove their shoes at airport security, thanks to new TSA technology and a successful pilot program.The change is effective immediately nationwide, per Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.Passengers ages 12 to 75 were previously required to remove shoes—a post-9/11 rule spurred by the 2001 “shoe bomber,” but a pilot program showed TSA's equipment could maintain safety standards without requiring shoe removal.“Most Americans will be very excited... it will be a much more streamlined process,” said Noem.TSA PreCheck still offers added perks like skipping laptop and toiletry removal.TSA is exploring more changes, including special lanes for families and service members, to simplify screenings further.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier0:45 Paul saw Halloween decor at Costco yesterday2:08 Announcements2:50 Dealers React To The End of the EV Tax Credit6:42 A look at Paul and Kyle's bookshelf7:30 Tesla Eyeing Robotaxi In San Fran9:43 TSA No Longer Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Episode 160 – Cartoons & Country Music (with Scott Innes) From voicing Scooby-Doo, Shaggy, and Popeye to winning a CMA award and hosting a hit radio show—Scott Innes has done it all. In this episode, Scott shares his journey through voice acting, music, and broadcasting, along with the life lessons that shaped him—like the mindset that “those who don't ask, don't eat.” We also dive into his latest venture: Cajun Con, a brand-new convention he's creating to celebrate pop culture and community. It's a fun, inspiring, and nostalgic conversation filled with laughs and real talk. In the closer, Nick and I chat about the new comic coming soon from Jeremy Haun, the upcoming Superman movie (and our plans to see it), and in this week's In the Stacks with Nick, he reviews a book by past guest Cullen Bunn. We also reflect on what it's like being two tired dads trying to podcast after long weeks—because sometimes, words are hard.   ======================== Podcast Networks:       Zeo to Hero Podcast Network: https://zeotohero.com/         OIW Podcast Network: https://www.oiwpodcastnetwork.com/         ======================== Merch! https://iygadapshop.etsy.com/    Stickers By Stasha: https://linktr.ee/stickersbystasha        =======================     Original Geek Comics: https://www.originalgeekcomics.com/    https://linktr.ee/OrgnlGeek    Original Geek: Beyond The Panels Podcast: https://www.redcircle.com/show/ogbeyondthepanels     ========================================== If You Give A Dad A YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@IfYouGiveADadAYoutubeCha-uw7zm    If You Give A Dad A Cosplay: https://www.youtube.com/@IfyougiveadadaCosplay-nl9hc   ========================= musical credits for show:       Beginning Music from www.Tunetank.com         Intro theme sampled from: https://pixabay.com/music   (find whole song there)       Outro music by: D.Cure Produced by: tunnA Beatz If you enjoy his music, be sure to check out his website as well! www.dcurehiphop.com         ===========================       Linktree to follow me: http://linktr.ee/Giveadadapodcast

Inspired by the museum's current lighting renovation, Drew sits down with Jackson Councilman, a recent college graduate with a concentration in neuroscience and former intern for the CMA's communications department, to unpack how light waves interact with the human eye, colorblindness, and how the work of Claude Monet may have been influenced by ultraviolet light. After the break, USC psychology professor Dr. Melanie Palomares joins the conversation to discuss how the brain processes visual information, the connections between Gestalt theory and the work of artist Bridget Riley, and why attention plays such a critical role in how we see.

In this episode, Pastor Jeff and Tiffany unpack the history, theology, and leadership structure of the CMA denomination. They explore the Alliance's roots in 19th-century revivalism, the influence of A.B. Simpson, and why CMA churches are often more recognizable by their mission than by their name.

Craig Lockwood, the main man behind the glass told me the last episode was #250! I talked about my aversion to counting things like sculpture, knives or podcast episodes I've made.

Today, I'm introducing you to Kate Tran — my neighbor and a videographer I've personally worked with. If you've taken any of my courses, you've already seen Kate's incredible work. She's the owner of a Nashville-based video production company, and has worked with major brands like CMA, Like to Know It, Tractor Supply, Make-A-Wish, and many more. But what really shines through in this episode is her passion for helping smaller, lesser-known brands find their voice through video content.We're diving into how to create amazing video content as a small business owner — especially when you're wearing many hats and doing it all yourself. The focus is primarily on video content for social media, especially Instagram, but we also touch on other uses for video as well.In our conversation, we cover topics like:Building confidence on cameraTesting your content with Reels trialsAvoiding common mistakes business owners make with videoAnd so much more!Plus, I also encourage you to listen all the way through to the end — my favorite part of the conversation happens in the last 15 minutes. Kate and I talk about working mom life. She's a mom of three and was a stay-at-home mom until COVID hit in 2020. When her youngest was about a year old, she started freelancing, not even sure she could call it a business yet. She shares so much wisdom about starting a business as a mom and balancing motherhood while building something meaningful.Links Mentioned:- Read the full shownotes: https://elizabethmccravy.com/310 - Follow Kate on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katetranvideoproduction - Work with Kate Tran: https://ktvp-studio.com/ - Connect with Elizabeth on Instagram: https://instagram.com/elizabethmccravy  - Take Our Website Quiz (+ Get Free Canva Templates!): https://elizabethmccravy.com/quiz   - Join Booked Out Designer: https://elizabethmccravy.com/bod- Sign up for Podcast Success Blueprint: https://elizabethmccravy.com/psbNeed some extra pages to improve or add onto your Showit website, BUT you're not in the market for an entirely new template?

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1071: In today's episode, we unpack April's surprising EV registration drop, spotlight top dealership strategies driving service and parts growth, and break down a fresh consumer sentiment boost that still comes with caution.Automotive News' Top 100 Service and Parts Dealer Groups show that there's no single path to growing service and parts revenue—but that tailored strategies, tech investments, and a laser focus on training can deliver huge results.Murgado Automotive boosted revenue 45% by empowering service directors and emphasizing speed, transparency, and convenience.Holman's 48% increase stemmed from employee training, technician retention, and use of myKaarma software across all stores.Kunes Auto Group drove a 33% bump through acquisitions and leveraging DealerFenix to standardize metrics and processes.All three groups focused on increasing customer-pay work, tire sales, and throughput efficiency.“It's all the little things that add up to the big things later on,” said Murgado CEO Mario Murgado.Top 10 - Autonation, Penske, Lithia, Hendrick, Asbury, Group 1, Sonic, Morgan, Holman, OurismanOther friends - 13 - McGovern, 27 - Ciocca, 33- RML, 35 - Bergstrom, 44 - Premier Automotive, 47 - Walser, 66 - Sam Pack, 69 - CMA, 74 - RohrmanFor the first time in over a year, U.S. electric vehicle registrations fell in April. While some brands like Chevrolet saw gains, overall adoption continues to hit a ceiling amid consumer hesitation.EV registrations dropped 4.4% year-over-year to 97,833, marking a 6.6% market share.Tesla saw a 16% decline, with major drops in Model Y and Cybertruck registrations.Chevrolet more than tripled its numbers, led by strong demand for the Equinox and Blazer EVs.S&P's Tom Libby notes the EV segment is hitting a “demand ceiling” around 5,000 units/month per model.“There's a lot of influences working against EVs right now,” Libby said, citing charging concerns and wavering government support.After half a year of sliding confidence, American consumers are feeling a bit more upbeat. A new report shows a sizable sentiment jump in June—but lingering doubts about the broader economy are hard to ignore.According to the University of Michigan, consumer sentiment rose 15.9% from May to 60.5, the highest level since December 2024.The increase was across age, income, region, and political affiliation, with expectations for both short and long-term business conditions seeing the steepest gains.Analysts credit a perceived easing of tariff pressure and slowing inflation for the positive shift.However, consumer sentiment, opinions on current economic conditions, and consumer expectations for the future are all still down YoY“Despite this month's notable improvement, consumers remain guarded and concJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Pastor Jeff Cranston is back! And sitting down with Pastor Jason Esposito of Crossway Church (a CMA congregation in Wisconsin) to discuss he heart behind the Christian and Missionary Alliance denomination. Founded by A.B. Simpson in the late 19th century, the CMA began not as a denomination but as a missions movement focused on bringing the gospel to the world. Pastor Jason unpacks the Fourfold Gospel (Jesus as Savior, Sanctifier, Healer, and Coming King) as well as the CMA's global reach, spiritual emphasis, and governance model.

In this episode Ray and Bae got in a fight about what to with their bags for CMA fest and Lunchbox tries to help solve their issues. Are you TEAM RAY or TEAM BAE? Game 1 of the NBA Finals between the Pacers and the Thunder was incredible but unfortunately Lunchbox missed all of it for a really stupid reason. Also we get an update on Callaway and we hear from the New Mexico Slippery Nipples! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

My friend Jared Thatcher is the Bladesmith of Boothill Knives, he and his wife Kylee run Three Daughters Farm, Boothill Kitchen and train and raise world class hunting Dogs at TDF Kennels. As if that wasn't enough, they hold Knife making classes every other weekend and Jared is the Mayor of his town in Kentucky. I Love taking with Jared and he's one of my favorite business minds in knife making. We had a great time talking about what he's been up to and making some connections between knife making and dog training. We talked about baseball for a bit until the connection dropped.(Subsequently it was exactly when the news broke that the Knicks fired their head coach. Seriously) Jared is a great friend and you should definitely check out what hes up to.
