Dr. Andrew Krieger, DSW, MBA, LCSW-S, LCDC, is a private practice psychotherapist with extensive experience in direct practice social work, clinical program design and development, addiction treatment, and group psychotherapy. He received his Doctor of Social Work from the University of Southern California and holds both a Master of Clinical Social Work and a Master of Business Administration from the University of Houston. Over the past 20 years, Dr. Krieger has worked with individuals and families as a private practice and group psychotherapist, specializing in addictive disorders, family therapy, group psychotherapy, and process addictions. He's also held clinical positions at some of the leading addiction treatment programs in Texas.  As Chief Executive Officer of Contemporary Medicine Associates (CMA) — the primary practice of Dr. Bo Allaire and Dr. Andrew Krieger — he leads a team specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of substance use disorders. CMA also provides third-party medical services for psychiatric and addiction treatment facilities, as well as clinical and business consulting services for mental health providers.  Originally founded over 20 years ago by Dr. Eugene Degner, one of the first board-certified addiction medicine doctors in Texas and a pioneer in the medical treatment of alcohol and drug addiction, CMA continues to honor Dr. Degner's legacy through compassionate, expert care.  Today, their doctors, nurses, and mental health professionals serve patients and families at every stage of addiction and recovery — providing a caring, non-judgmental environment where healing can truly begin. They also offer comprehensive support for individuals with mental health conditions such as depression, trauma, and anxiety. In this conversation, Dr. Jason Powers and Dr. Andrew Krieger discuss the different phases of recovery, the science behind post-acute withdrawal syndrome, and the meaning of emotional sobriety. Together, they explore how long-term recovery is less about counting the years and more about integrity, emotional growth, and learning to live a life that's genuinely fulfilling. Topics Discussed: Defining Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS) The difference between co-occurring disorders & substance use disorder Breaking down emotional sobriety into 3 main categories Understanding the phases of recovery and personal growth How perspective and integrity define Long-Term Sobriety, not just time Finding fulfillment beyond survival in recovery — CHAPTERS:  00:00 Introduction to Positive Recovery MD 01:09 Meet Our Guest: Andrew Krieger 01:40 Andrew's Journey to Sobriety 03:45 Career Transition and Professional Growth 06:36 Phases of Recovery 09:57 Understanding Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome & Co-Occurring Disorders 15:48 Emotional Sobriety Explained 20:00 Why Length of Abstinence Doesn't Equate to Emotional Maturity 21:40 Personal Stories in Early Recovery 23:55 The Importance of Supportive Relationships and Accountability 27:55 Finding a Balance in Sobriety and New Experiences in Recovery  31:58 Reflections on Personal Journey and Finding Peace  — Connect with Dr. Andrew Krieger:  Website: www.cmamed.com  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-krieger-6864745  — Connect with PRC on Social: IG: https://www.instagram.com/positiverecoverycenters  FB: https://www.facebook.com/PositiveRecoveryCenters  TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@positiverecoverycenter  LI: https://www.linkedin.com/company/positiverecoverycenters  YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4JcDF1gjlYch4V4iBbCgZg Want even more expert insights and support on the recovery journey?

Un miembro del canal me dijo: “Tanto hablar de Saab y se os olvida Volvo” ¡Y tenía toda la razón! Si a una persona, aficionada o no, le pronuncias “Volvo”, piensan en Suecia, en seguridad y, probablemente, en un coche familiar cuadrado y robusto. Esta es la historia de una marca que convirtió la seguridad en su religión pero también fabricó coupés deportivos y que acabó teniendo los ojos rasgados… ¿se puede hablar de “final feliz”? La historia de muchas marcas comienza en un taller de coches, pero la de Volvo no. En Gotemburgo, Suecia, esta erradicada la empresa SKF era uno de los mayores fabricantes del mundo de rodamientos. Y dos de sus empleados, el economista Assar Gabrielsson y el ingeniero Gustaf Larson, compartían una pasión: los automóviles. La leyenda cuenta que sellaron su acuerdo en una cena en agosto de 1924, en el restaurante Sturehof de Estocolmo, comiendo cigalas. El 14 de abril de 1927, el primer Volvo salió de la fábrica. Era el ÖV 4, apodado "Jakob", un descapotable con un motor de 4 cilindros y 28 CV. Como en toda buena historia, el debut tuvo un problemilla. Hablar de Volvo es hablar de seguridad con propuestas concretos. Otras marcas en los años 40 y 50 se centraban en la potencia las prestaciones, pero Volvo ya pensaba en cómo sobrevivir a un accidente. En 1944, su modelo PV444 ya introdujo una jaula de seguridad y el parabrisas de vidrio laminado. En los 50, experimentaron con salpicaderos acolchados. Pero el momento que cambió todo el mundo del automóvil, llegó en 1959. Volvo contrató al ingeniero Nils Bohlin, que antes había diseñado asientos eyectables para aviones de combate en Saab. Sabía cómo mantener a un humano atado y a salvo. En menos de un año, Bohlin desarrolló y patentó el cinturón de seguridad de tres puntos de anclaje. Y aquí es donde Volvo hizo algo impensable. Tenían la patente de uno de los mayores inventos en la historia del automóvil. Podrían haber intentados cubrirse de oro, pero no, la liberaron. Dejaron que cualquier fabricante del mundo la usara, gratis. Entendieron que era un avance demasiado importante para la vida humana como para guardárselo. ¿Y las carreras? En los 80, Volvo cogió su sedán 240, con la aerodinámica de una nevera, le metió un turbo descomunal y lo apodó "El Ladrillo Volador". Ganó el Campeonato Europeo de Turismos en 1985, humillando a BMW y Jaguar. Pero la locura definitiva llegó en 1994, en el Campeonato Británico de Turismos. A finales del siglo XX, los fabricantes independientes como Volvo lo tenían difícil. Tras un intento de fusión fallido con Renault, Volvo acabó buscando un socio más grande. En 1999, Ford compró la división de coches de Volvo por 6.450 millones de dólares. Volvo pasó a formar parte del Premier Automotive Group de Ford, junto a Jaguar, Land Rover y Aston Martin… Desde donde nadie lo esperaba, llegó una oferta. Venía de China. De un fabricante relativamente desconocido llamado Geely. El pánico se apoderó de Suecia. ¿Una empresa china comprando el símbolo de la ingeniería sueca? Muchos vaticinaron el fin de Volvo, como ya había sucedido con Saab, pensando que robarían su tecnología y la calidad caería en picado. Pero el fundador de Geely, Li Shufu, era un admirador profundo de Volvo. En 2010, la venta se completó por 1.800 millones de dólares. Y Li Shufu cumplió su palabra. Geely hizo lo más inteligente que podía hacer: puso una cantidad ingente de dinero sobre la mesa y se apartó. Le dieron a Volvo la financiación y la independencia casi total para investigar y desarrollar. Liberaron al tigre. El resultado fue el renacimiento de Volvo. Con la inversión china, los ingenieros suecos desarrollaron desde cero dos nuevas plataformas modulares, SPA y CMA. Contrataron a un nuevo jefe de diseño, Thomas Ingenlath, que revolucionó la estética de la marca con señas de identidad como los faros en forma de "Martillo de Thor". El primer fruto de esta nueva era, el XC90 de 2015, fue una declaración de intenciones: lujoso, tecnológico, minimalista y, por supuesto, el coche más seguro del mundo. Fue un éxito rotundo y marcó el camino para una gama que ha devuelto a Volvo a lo más alto del segmento premium, reforzando su identidad sueca y apostando ahora por la electrificación total con su submarca Polestar.

The UK Competition and Markets Authority found that restrictive licensing costs UK cloud customers £500 million annually due to lack of competition, while US government agencies overspend by $750 million yearly because of Microsoft’s licensing tactics. Microsoft recently disclosed that forcing software customers to use Azure is one of three pillars driving its growth and is implementing new licensing changes preventing managed service providers from hosting certain workloads on Azure competitors. Multiple regulators globally including South Africa and the US FTC are now investigating Microsoft’s cloud licensing practices, with the CMA finding that Azure has gained customers at 2-3x the rate of competitors since implementing restrictive terms.

Financial leadership is more than numbers—it's the heartbeat of nonprofit sustainability. In this Nonprofit Power Week finale of The Nonprofit Show, Regional Director Ellie Hume of Your Part-Time Controller (YPTC) brings clarity and candor to some of the most frequently asked financial questions. With an “Ask and Answer” format, the conversation covers everything from roles and responsibilities in financial leadership to the evolving landscape of fractional CFOs.Ellie sets the stage by redefining how we see finance in nonprofits: “Finance is literally the thread that draws every piece of the organization together because without it, nothing works.” She dismantles silos by urging finance professionals to engage deeply with program, marketing, and development teams to ensure that data isn't just accurate but also meaningful for decision-making.The discussion takes a practical turn as Ellie differentiates between controllers, comptrollers, and CFOs. She outlines the transactional oversight of controllers, the governmental nuance of comptrollers, and the strategic future-focus of CFOs. She also digs into the importance of internal controls, noting their role in fraud prevention and audit readiness.The lively session shifts into the governance space. How often should boards review and sign Conflict of Interest (COI) policies? Ellie's answer is clear: annually at minimum, but immediately when new conflicts arise. She gives a relatable example: a contractor-board member bidding on a capital campaign project must disclose and recuse themselves. Transparency, she argues, isn't optional—it's fiduciary duty.Ellie also challenges assumptions about credentials. Do finance directors need to be CPAs? Her answer: “You truly just need great accounting skills and a strategic mindset to help the organization use financial information to make good business decisions.” Certifications like CPA or CMA add credibility but don't replace experience or practical skill.The conversation also explores the rise of fractional leadership. Ellie frames fractional CFOs as an efficient way to access high-level talent at a fraction of the time or cost, particularly useful during transitions or to prepare for a new hire. Fractional arrangements, she explains, can be both short-term bridges and long-term partnerships.The conversation wraps with a powerful reminder for board members: ask tough financial questions. Are resources aligned with mission? What risks are we facing? Do internal controls hold up? And crucially—what training do board members need to responsibly interpret financial statements?#TheNonprofitShow #NonprofitFinance #FractionalCFOFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

In this episode of the REB podcast, editor Liam Garman sits down with Rebecca Moroney, CEO and founder of Wayscape, to unpack how agentic AI is set to revolutionise real estate. Rebecca shares how AI can work with agents, not replace them – slashing the time spent on admin and freeing up more hours for clients. She outlines how Wayscape integrates with CRM systems, automating tasks like transcription, CMA creation and appraisals in seconds while maintaining accurate records of every client interaction. Rebecca will also showcase how AI is revolutionising real estate live at the upcoming REB Innovation Summit. She also highlights the importance of data and personalisation, with Wayscape's small language model trained specifically for real estate to deliver relevant, precise insights. The conversation explores the opportunities and challenges of adopting AI responsibly, with Rebecca noting the need for agents to stay within professional boundaries while leveraging technology to enhance their service. Looking ahead, she predicts that AI-powered, consolidated platforms will become the norm, giving agents faster access to information, more opportunities to serve clients, and ultimately stronger returns.

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches! In today's episode of the All The Leads Mastermind podcast the team dives into practical strategies for turning probate leads into lasting client relationships. The panel emphasizes listening over selling, using questions to uncover real buyer and seller needs, and building trust through authentic, service-first conversations. You'll hear coaches discuss the pillars of a sustainable real estate business, the difference between transactional sales and transformational guidance, and how data, CMA, and clear cost estimates can make offers more compelling without pressuring clients. Real-world stories highlight the value of empathy, rapport, and consistent follow-up, from handling probate estates to navigating short sales and distressed properties. The discussion also covers timing, market dynamics, and how rising or falling mortgage rates influence buyer psychology, while stressing that people move where they live and that adapting to local conditions is crucial. Throughout the call, participants share templates, checklists, and example dialogues that help agents present choices, explain processes, and empower clients to make informed decisions. By the end, the group underscores that success comes from serving families, maintaining a strong foundation, and turning relationships into repeat business and referrals rather than chasing quick wins. Tune in for practical tips you can apply this week to improve lead conversion, nurture long-term relationships, and position yourself as a trusted advisor in probate, divorce, and mortgage-related scenarios.  Key Takeaways:  - Build relationships over time rather than chasing transactions.  - Lead with service and empathy to win referrals.  - Use data and CMA to anchor pricing and negotiations.  - Qualify buyers and sellers before listing to avoid wasted time.  - Provide value through resources and probate guides.  - Maintain consistent follow-up with a documented process.  To learn more, visit https://www.AllTheLeads.com or call (844) 532-3369 to check how many leads are available in your market.  #ProbateRealEstate #ClientRelationships #LeadConversion #ServeDontSell Previous episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

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?

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. Dave Chase, who has been on this podcast—I think this is his third time, although it has been a while—Dave Chase is co-founder and CEO of Health Rosetta. Also mentioned in this episode are Health Rosetta; Jonathan Baran; Mick Connors, MD; Ann Lewandowski; AJ Loiacono; Chris Deacon; VerSan Consulting; Justin Leader; Cynthia Fisher; Nautilus; Andreas Mang; Blackstone; Jon Camire; Claire Brockbank; Elizabeth Mitchell; Scott Haas; Paul Holmes; Chris Crawford; Luke Slindee, PharmD; Mark Cuban; Marilyn Bartlett, CPA, CGMA, CMA, CFM; Leah Binder; and Dawn Cornelis.   You can learn more at Health Rosetta and follow Dave on LinkedIn.   Dave Chase is on a mission to restore hope, health, and economic well-being to communities through healthcare transformation. As creator of the community-owned health plan (COHP) model, he is building a nationwide movement that turns health plans from drivers of wage stagnation into vessels for well-being and wealth creation. As founder of Health Rosetta, Dave has helped transform healthcare for thousands of employers covering more than five million Americans. What began with identifying just five successful health plans nationwide has grown into a movement with thousands of sustainable successes that deliver superior care at 20% to 50% lower costs. In 2024, his team launched Nautilus Health Institute, catalyzed with $4 million in Health Rosetta intellectual property and investment. Nautilus provides open-source standards, contracting templates, and technology infrastructure (including METL, an open-source healthcare data platform) that establish new market norms benefiting employers, clinicians, and communities. Dave's work in healthcare transformation has reached over 10 million people through best-selling books (The CEO's Guide to Restoring the American Dream, The Opioid Crisis Wake-up Call, Relocalizing Health), media, TED Talks, and TV/film appearances. He has received the World Health Care Congress's Lifetime Achievement Award for Health Benefits Innovation. Dave is dedicated to transforming healthcare through transparency, community ownership, and proven solutions that restore the American Dream.   06:36 What questions does a plan sponsor need to ask their consultant, EBC, or broker to ensure they are protecting the interest of the plan sponsor? 07:59 EP478 with Andreas Mang and Jon Camire. 08:49 EP453 with Claire Brockbank. 09:51 EP433 with Justin Leader. 09:53 EP436 with Elizabeth Mitchell. 11:03 How can plan sponsors avoid personal liability when their TPA has hidden conflicts of interest? 11:40 Tiara Yachts v.

I met Jaden back in the early days of Knife Talk Podcast . He was a young guy starting to learn about knife making and sending us at the podcast a lot of great questions for the show. Over the years we saw him as a growing knife maker, good guy and supporter of the show. A couple of years I saw that he was involved in a horrific car accident that changed his life. Jaden is a remarkable person whose story is an  inspirational story about  drive and optimism and never giving up. His company Fox River Blades is doing great and through it all Jaden is finding happiness. This was a great episode and I'm sure he'll be back to fool around. Many thanks Jaden for your flexibility!
