Sarah and Susie are reuniting in Denver again, and they are psyched. Sarah is talking about life hack's she's trying in the new year. So what, who cares. Sarah claims there are five "approved" lesbian haircuts and we learn what they are. There is some special nail polish that is going viral that is supposed to allow you to color coordinate by changing the color magically, but it ends up looking insane, and Sarah is mad about it.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

In this solo episode, I pull back the curtain on everything happening inside the Dad Edge ecosystem as we close out January and head into February. If your marriage feels disconnected, your health slipped during the holidays, or you've been looking for real skills—not motivation—this episode lays out exactly what's available and how to plug in.   I share my own story of marriage struggle, why only a small percentage of couples truly feel connected, and how becoming a student of marriage completely changed the trajectory of my relationship. From February's marriage-focused tactical agenda inside the Dad Edge Alliance, to the 1st Phorm 8-week challenge, to major announcements around preview calls and the Men's Forge event, this episode is about clarity, opportunity, and intentional action for men who want their marriage and leadership to look different in 2026.     Timeline Summary: [0:00] Keeping the blooper and why imperfection matters in fatherhood [1:35] Larry reflects on the first 10–12 years of marriage struggles [2:27] When marriage turns into co-parenting and roommate syndrome [3:07] Becoming a student of marriage and why things finally changed [3:27] Only 12% of marriages report deep connection [3:52] Introducing the Dad Edge ecosystem [4:11] Overview of the Dad Edge Alliance [4:50] February tactical agenda inside the Alliance [5:09] Why February always focuses on marriage skills [5:28] Week 1: Attraction, identity, and masculine presence [6:11] Week 2: Leading without chasing or needy energy [6:35] Week 3: Boundaries that create desire [6:55] Week 4: Emotional safety and attraction [7:39] Why February is the best month to join the Alliance [8:01] Roommates to Soulmates cohort selling out quickly [8:41] Holiday weight gain and the need for a physical reset [9:01] 1st Phorm Dad Edge 8-week challenge overview [9:42] Challenge dates and community support [10:19] January Dad Edge 1st Phorm Dad of the Month recognition [11:01] Alliance preview call announcement [11:24] What men will learn on the preview call [12:17] Moving away from social media noise [14:06] Men's Forge 2026 announcement [14:51] Why this event is different [15:41] Where to find all links and next steps [16:04] Gratitude and closing encouragement     Five Key Takeaways Most men were never taught how to lead a marriage, which is why skill-building—not willpower—creates change. Attraction in marriage evolves, and men must adapt leadership, presence, and identity. Boundaries and emotional safety create desire, not chasing or people-pleasing. Physical health fuels confidence and leadership, especially inside marriage. Community accelerates growth, when men commit to accountability and action.     Links & Resources: Dad Edge Alliance (Marriage, Parenting, Health, Leadership): https://thedadedge.com/alliance Dad Edge Alliance Preview Call: https://thedadedge.com/preview 1st Phorm Dad Edge 8-Week Challenge: https://1stphorm.com/dadedge Men's Forge 2026 Event: https://themensforge.com All Episode Resources: https://thedadedge.com/1431     Closing Remark Gentlemen, if you want your marriage, health, and leadership to look different in 2026, this is your moment to engage.

In this episode, we talk to David Herrera to explore why biology, not motivation, determines follow-through, discipline, and health.We dive deep into how light exposure, dopamine, circadian rhythm, cold, and modern environments shape everything from energy levels and sleep to hormones, mood, addiction, and long-term disease risk. From blue light and melatonin to vitamin D myths, sunscreen, seed oils, and why kids spend less time outside than prisoners, this conversation challenges nearly everything we've been taught about “health.”This isn't about hacks.It's about restoring the inputs humans evolved with.References:https://x.com/DrJackKruse/status/2009355665538720248David's House:https://www.loom.com/share/0d2d864b0c724a6390f1096915a19e21Monitor mentioned:https://spectrumview.com/Special perks for our listeners below!

Real Sober Mom Sarah grew up in Germany on a US military base where alcohol was such a way of life that her first drink was at thirteen years old at a restaurant with her family. As a mom, alcohol came in and out of her life but it wasn't until her kids were a bit older that it began to have a hold on her. Once she realized she was drinking every day, she began to worry - had her drinking gone too far? She began to take sobriety one day at a time. With community support in Fresh 30 and The Sober Mom Life Cafe, she has now been sober since late 2024! Community makes all the difference. Join The Sober Mom Life Cafe for 6+ Peer Support meetings each week and a private Facebook group to connect with sober and sober-curious women. Get Your Copy of my book!

We are just weeks away from opening my new IMPACT-X Performance facility in San Diego, CA. And one of the most important things from the start is creating an amazing culture. We did it at Fitness Quest 10. And we'll do it again. In today's episode of the IMPACT SHOW podcast, I'm going ALL-IN on why culture is the ultimate performance advantage—and why it will always outperform strategy, systems, or talent alone. This isn't theory or buzzwords. This is real-time leadership straight from the trenches as we prepare to open IXP-San Diego from the ground up (literally!). I'm sharing exactly what it takes to build a world-class culture from Day One, the mistakes that leaders sometimes make that can quietly destroy an organization, and the non-negotiable standards that high-performing teams must live by every single day to build, grow, and sustain an iconic culture. If you're a leader, coach, gym owner, or business owner who wants stronger teams, deeper loyalty, and an even more long-lasting impact—this episode is for YOU. Here are just a few things you'll learn in Episode 463: Why culture always beats strategy (and determines whether plans live or die). The biggest leadership mistakes that can silently destroy culture. Why you don't get the culture you want—you get the culture you lead and tolerate Real examples from world-class brands like Ritz-Carlton, Nordstrom, Chick-fil-A, Disney, Amazon, and more… How to define and live out a clear brand promise. The IMPACT-X Performance Culture Standards, including these 5 credos: o Be the Light – bringing energy, belief, and encouragement into every interaction o People First, Always – seeing the person before the protocol o Own the Experience – if it happens in our building, it's our responsibility o Energy Is a Skill – we don't wait for it, we choose it o Excellence Is the Baseline – good is never good enough                                                      o Leave a Legacy – every interaction is a chance to change a life 3-critical culture rules every leader must enforce: Why one wrong hire with the wrong energy can undo years of great work…and how to prevent it through our proven hiring process. Why it is that two organizations that have the same strategy, the same talent, and even the same resources—one can thrive and excel…while the other slowly falls apart and dies. How culture compounds—for better or worse. Get it RIGHT from the start! Remember my friends, culture is not a mission statement hanging on a wall or a list of values buried on a website. It's not what you say when things are easy or when business is booming. Culture is revealed under pressure. It shows up in how your team treats each other when no one is watching, how they respond when things go wrong, and how your clients and members feel the moment they walk through the door—and the moment they leave. Culture doesn't improve just because time passes or systems change. It improves when leadership improves. You don't get the culture you hope for or wish for—you get the culture you lead, model, and tolerate every single day. So here's the challenge. Don't wait until energy drops, turnover rises, or cracks start to show before you address culture. Start now. Take a hard look at the standards you're enforcing, the behaviors you're allowing, and the energy you're bringing into every room you walk into. Have the conversations you've been avoiding. Reinforce the standards that matter most. And remember—culture starts with you.  If this episode spoke to you, share it with your team, talk about it in your next meeting, and commit to building a culture that's intentional, aligned, and world-class. Because when you lead culture the right way, everything else—performance, loyalty, and impact—follows.  Please do me a favor and do 1 (or all 3) of the following things: 1.

In this episode, Shelby and Laura take listeners behind the scenes of what it actually means to become a professional nurse coach. This is not a conversation about hype or shortcuts. It is a real, nuanced discussion about capacity, confidence, identity shifts, and why being new can feel so disorienting in leadership and entrepreneurship. They unpack why nurse coaching is inherently pioneering work, why confidence can never come before action, and how repetition, community, and regulation are what allow nurse coaches to stay in the game long enough to succeed. This episode normalizes the discomfort of growth and reframes it as a necessary, meaningful part of building a sustainable practice and a new professional identity.Highlights in the discussion:Confidence is built through repetition, not readiness.Discomfort is part of becoming a professional, not a sign to quit.Capacity means staying present with uncertainty without collapsing or overcorrecting.Community matters because it prevents isolation and early burnout.Residency acts as failure insurance, giving nurse coaches support, feedback, and structure while they build real-world experience.Sustainable success comes from staying in the process long enough for competence and self-trust to form.Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/7ncLBZ36bW4Mentioned in this episode:Book the callYou don't need more information — you need a container that makes action unavoidable.

In this episode of Social Media Decoded, Michelle Thames breaks down the marketing trends that will actually matter in 2026 and the ones she's intentionally ignoring. Drawing from 15+ years of experience in marketing, community building, and visibility strategy, Michelle explains why fundamentals still outperform hype and how brands can build longevity instead of chasing short-term momentum. This episode is for entrepreneurs, creators, and business owners who want sustainable visibility, stronger relationships, and marketing strategies that work across every season of business. Topics Covered Why most marketing trends don't last The difference between momentum and longevity Community-led marketing and why it's the future Thought leadership vs performance-based content Why owned audiences matter more than algorithms Trends Michelle is intentionally ignoring in 2026 Why virality does not equal business growth How clarity, consistency, and trust still win Building a visibility ecosystem instead of chasing platforms Key Takeaways Trends are loud, but foundations compound quietly Community creates trust, referrals, and long-term growth Decision-makers buy clarity, not aesthetics Owned audiences protect your business from platform shifts Mastery on one platform beats being everywhere Fundamentals never go out of style Who This Episode Is For Entrepreneurs planning for 2026 growth Creators tired of chasing trends and burning out Business owners focused on long-term visibility Brands ready to build community, not just content Leaders who want marketing strategies that last If you want support building a sustainable visibility strategy and community-led ecosystem, join the Collective for ongoing proximity, strategy, and feedback.

At a certain level of expertise, more effort stops being the differentiator. Proximity becomes the lever that accelerates opportunity. If you've ever wondered why some experts seem to attract opportunities effortlessly while others work twice as hard for half the traction, this episode will connect the dots. The key factor is rarely how good you are, how much experience you have, or how well positioned your authority is – it's the environment they are operating in. In episode 475 of Amplify Your Success podcast, I break down why experts inside collaborative communities like curated masterminds and The Rising Tide Collective have a powerful and often overlooked advantage. We explore how opportunities actually move in the market, why visibility accelerates through trust amongst connections, which activates an unfair advantage that no amount of solo effort can replicate. This conversation is not about networking harder or joining more groups (especially the free online FB groups that become overly saturated.) It's about understanding how aligned communities can create shared visibility, compound credibility, and open doors that are difficult to access alone. If you are an expert who wants more referrals, higher-level conversations, and opportunities that feel aligned rather than forced, this episode will help you see what really creates traction at the next level.   Key Takeaways:  [00:00] Why opportunity is rarely about effort and more often about relationships with the right people. [02:41] How collaborative communities quietly accelerate trust and visibility. [04:58] The difference between being visible alone and being visible through shared momentum. [07:12] Why referrals and opportunities flow faster inside aligned communities. [09:36] How collaboration removes friction from visibility and relationship building. [12:04] Why many experts stall by trying to grow in isolation. [14:27] What makes a community expansive instead of an energetic drain. [17:10] How shared values and contribution create compound opportunity. [19:45] Why experts who win consistently are rarely doing it alone.   Resources Mentioned in This Episode: The Rising Tide Collective is an online community where experts and leaders come together to co-create visibility opportunities and aligned collaborations that lift everyone up. Each month you can participate in our signature mini-minds, a curated connection space, showcase your business, and gain access to tools to build powerful, profitable partnerships.

We air our live conversation with Ocean Vuong from our January Get Lit with All Of It book club event. We spent the month reading his novel, The Emperor of Gladness.  

New York is coping with several inches of snow over the weekend. Weather forecaster John Homenuk, founder of New York Metro Weather, recaps how the storm hit the tri-state area, and listeners share how they spent their snow day, and reflect on their memories of famous blizzards of New York past.

Did your parents have a lot stuff? After parents pass away, figuring out what to do with all of their possessions could be a full time job. And deciding what to keep, give away, or throw away, can take a lot of emotional strength. Becky Robison, author of My Parents Are Dead: What Now? A Panic-Free Guide to the Practicalities of Death, gives some advice on how to sort through a parent's possessions after they pass away, or have a conversation with a parent to help them make a plan before they pass. Plus, listeners share their personal experience and questions.

For our January Get Lit with All Of It book club event, Ocean Vuong requested he be accompanied by musical guest Quinn Christopherson, a Tiny Desk contest winner, who flew in from Alaska overnight to perform some new music, live.

#759 What if a simple postcard could open the door to a full-blown, high-margin local marketing agency? In this episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with Dalton Joyner and Rachel Smith, founders of Big Sky Automation, to break down a simple (and surprisingly profitable) local-agency growth play: using shared direct-mail postcards as a “foot-in-the-door” offer that brings small businesses in fast — then upselling into higher-value services like web development, Google Business Profile optimization, and reputation management. Dalton and Rachel share their origin story, how they structure the postcard program, the exact tools they use to fulfill mailers through USPS EDDM, and how they keep execution simple with Canva and automation. They also reveal how they've turned the model into an online community that helps others launch the same business in their own towns! What we discuss with Dalton and Rachel: + Shared direct-mail postcards + Low-cost “foot-in-the-door” offers + Splitting postcard costs + USPS EDDM fulfillment + Local business lead generation + Upselling agency services + Google Business Profile optimization + Reputation management systems + High-margin postcard profits + Community-based agency model Thank you, Dalton and Rachel!

Episode Summary:In this episode of Explaining History, Nick explores the social and historical roots of the fascist foot soldier. Who are the young men who join paramilitary organizations, and what drives them?Following the shocking execution of Renée Good by ICE agents in Minnesota, we draw parallels between the modern American far-right and the Nazi Brownshirts (SA) of the 1920s and 30s. We examine how resentment, loss of status, and the "psychological wage" of whiteness fuel the recruitment of disaffected men into forces of state repression.From the "stab in the back" myth in Weimar Germany to the "Great Replacement" theory in Trump's America, Nick argues that fascism thrives on a sense of grievance and the promise of restored dominance. Is ICE becoming the shock troops of a new authoritarianism, designed not just to enforce borders but to provoke civil conflict?Plus: A recap of our successful Russian Revolution Masterclass and details on the upcoming session on Post-War America!Key Topics:The Brownshirt Demographic: Why bored, angry young men flocked to the SA.Fascism as Struggle: The ideology of constant battle and radicalization.The Psychological Wage: W.E.B. Du Bois on why poor whites defend racial hierarchy.ICE as Agent Provocateur: How paramilitary violence is being used to justify martial law.Announcements:Patreon: Listen ad-free for £5/month.Masterclass: Tickets for the Post-War America (1945-74) session are coming soon!Explaining History helps you understand the 20th Century through critical conversations and expert interviews.

Today's episode is an intentional departure from our usual book conversation. We're sitting down with Victoria, owner of Comma Bookshop in Minneapolis, to talk about what's happening on the ground in Minnesota, the community response, the protests, and how local activists and organizers are supporting one another. On January 24, 2026, Alex Pretti was murdered on the street in Minneapolis while being beaten by 6 ICE agents. This comes shortly after the murder of Renee Nicole Good, also in Minnesota. There are seven others who have also been murdered by ICE around the country. The horrific actions of ICE and their brutal actions of tearing apart families and sending innocent men, women, and children to ICE centers is unacceptable.

Matt 16:13-17:9

Matt 16:13-17:9

Like the Phial of Galadriel that was a light in dark places when all other lights go out, we pay attention to Jesus as a light shining in a dark place until the day dawns and the Morning Star arises in our hearts.

Most of us treat our spiritual walk like a solo project, believing we can reach our full potential through personal study or by watching a service from a distance. We try to handle our struggles in private, only to find ourselves stuck in a cycle of resetting the same old habits without ever addressing the root cause. But real growth isn't designed to happen in isolation; it requires a specific environment to actually take root. True spiritual maturity is a team sport, not a solo pursuit. There are blind spots in our character, our marriages, and our careers that we simply cannot see or fix on our own. We need a biblical community that loves us enough to call us up to a higher standard and carry us through the heavy seasons when we feel overwhelmed. You might be just one honest, biblical relationship away from the breakthrough you've been praying for. Community isn't just an optional resource or a social club; it is the fundamental context where our faith becomes practical. God designed us to be sharpened by others so that we don't have to drown in our own secrets. It's time to stop trying to "one another" without others and invite the right people into your journey. Step out of isolation and let the real work of growth begin within the body of Christ. At 12Stone Church, learn how to Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose and Make a Difference.

Genesis 38-40

Notes Matthew 5:1-12 Micah 6:1-8 1 Corinthians 1:18-31 Summary In this episode of the Pulpit Fiction Podcast, hosts Eric Fistler and Robb McCoy explore the Beatitudes from the Gospel of Matthew, Micah 6's call for justice and humility, and the message of the cross in 1 Corinthians. They discuss the importance of community relationships in ministry, the depth of the Beatitudes, and the implications of Micah's message for contemporary faith practice. The conversation emphasizes the need for justice, mercy, and humility in the Christian life, while also addressing the foolishness of worldly wisdom in light of God's truth. Takeaways The Beatitudes highlight the values of the Kingdom of God. Building relationships with other Christian communities is essential for support during crises. Micah 6 emphasizes justice, mercy, and humility as core requirements from God. The message of the cross challenges worldly wisdom and power structures. Preachers should focus on the heart of the Beatitudes rather than just the text. Community support is vital for those mourning or in need. The foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom. God chooses the lowly and foolish to confound the wise. The Beatitudes can be explored in depth, offering rich material for sermons. Understanding the context of scripture enhances its application in today's world.

Matthew 18:15-3515“If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. 16But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. 17If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. 18Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 19Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”21Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” 22Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you seven times, but seventy-seven times.23“Therefore the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his servants. 24When he began to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. 25And since he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made. 26So the servant fell on his knees, imploring him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.' 27And out of pity for him, the master of that servant released him and forgave him the debt. 28But when that same servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii, and seizing him, he began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay what you owe.' 29So his fellow servant fell down and pleaded with him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you.' 30He refused and went and put him in prison until he should pay the debt. 31When his fellow servants saw what had taken place, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their master all that had taken place. 32Then his master summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. 33And should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?' 34And in anger his master delivered him to the jailers, until he should pay all his debt. 35So also my heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.”

The Bitterness You Carry | Let It Go | Rick Atchley by The Hills Church

This week on Xbox Expansion Pass, we break down the Xbox Developer Direct 2026 and what it tells us about Xbox's near-term future. We dig into Forza Horizon 6's Japan setting, release date, and controversial $120 Premium Edition pricing, and then pivot to a deep dive on the Fable reboot — combat, morality systems, NPC simulation, and why this could finally be the RPG Xbox fans have waited two generations for. We also react to Game Freak's Beast of Reincarnation, Double Fine's clay-brawler Kiln, and the wider 2026 slate including Halo: Campaign Evolved, Gears of War: E-Day, State of Decay 3, and Clockwork Revolution. Along the way we talk Game Pass value with big third-party adds like Death Stranding Director's Cut and Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2, plus how Xbox is handling $70+ pricing in a rough economy. In the back half of the show we answer a community question about which cancelled game we'd resurrect and who we'd want making it (yes, Scalebound and StarCraft: Ghost show up), touch on Arc Raiders' surprise success, Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade coming to Xbox with a limited Play Anywhere bonus, and share a few thoughts on Riot's 2XKO, cross-media crossovers like Stranger Things in Dead by Daylight, and the future of Xbox on PC and handhelds. Clear takes. No console-war noise. Xbox-forward discussion hosted by Luke Lohr (Insipid Ghost) and Captain Logun.

What are you willing to risk for the mission of Christ? The price was pretty high for John the Baptist, the disciples, and especially for Jesus himself. Going against the grain is rarely easy. Join hosts Karin Peter and Blake Smith for a conversation that touches on the counter-cultural nature of Jesus' Kingdom, the marginalized status of the first disciples, and the urgency of taking risks for restoration, reconciliation, and healing. Listen to other episodes in the Coffee to Go series. Download the Transcript. Thanks for listening to Faith Unfiltered!Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Intro and Outro music used with permission: “For Everyone Born,” Community of Christ Sings #285.
