Pagan Community Building (…or is the Druid secretly starting a cult?)This week on Three Witches and a Druid, the gang kicks things off in their now-iconic meeting spot: our wise Druid's backyard—home to birdsong, dappled sunlight, and a feral patch of Japanese knotweed that might just be plotting world domination. Annoying? Yes. Edible? Also yes. Turns out, in a post-apocalyptic snack emergency, we might all be chewing knotweed and pretending it's kale.From there, things take a deliciously unhinged turn as the hosts dive into one of their favourite long-running fantasies: building the ultimate pagan community. We're talking full-on witchy commune energy—sacred fires, gardens overflowing with herbs, shared meals, moon rituals, maybe a goat or 7… the works. And of course, chaos ensues in the best way.They dish on everything from apocalypse gardening tips to the logistics of communal living, throw shade at zoning laws, and even casually mention the Diefenbunker because why wouldn't you want your coven to have a Cold War-era hideout?Expect:
SummaryIn this ATX DAO Podcast roundtable edition, Christopher and Angle join to unpack one of crypto's toughest questions: Has the industry lost its soul, and can it get it back? From Bitcoin's origin story to meme coin mania and the rise of institutional players, the conversation pulls no punches. The crew explores how blockchain has strayed from its ideals, whether Web3 gaming is more than a gimmick, and what it will take to build systems that serve people instead of just pumping bags.The episode also digs into the pitfalls of hype cycles, the collapse of trust in tokenized projects, and the reality that most “decentralized” systems still rely on centralized infrastructure. But it's not all doom and gloom. From Quai Network's energy-backed currency concept to the promise of games like Off the Grid, they explore what might be possible if the culture can reset. Whether you're jaded, curious, or still holding onto the dream, this one is worth a listen.Chapters00:00 Introduction07:57 The Evolution of Crypto and Bitcoin's Role12:47 Bitcoin vs. Altcoins: Perspectives and Analogies17:45 Web 3 Gaming: Opportunities and Challenges24:53 Balancing Rarity and Gameplay in Web3 Gaming29:23 Scarcity and Ownership in Digital Games34:58 The Shift in Crypto's Purpose: From Sovereignty to Speculation43:20 Innovative Concepts: Energy-Based Currency and Beyond48:14 Community Building in the Blockchain SpaceConnect with us on X (Twitter):Angle: @quetzalcapChristopher: @ChristopherNFGG | @QuaiNetworkLuke: @Luke152Check out our friends at Tequila 512:Website: https://www.tequila512.comSocials: X (Twitter) | Instagram | TikTok | FacebookTo learn more about ATX DAO:Check out the ATX DAO websiteFollow @ATXDAO on X (Twitter)Subscribe to our newsletterConnect with us on LinkedInJoin the community in the ATX DAO DiscordSupport the Podcast:If you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a review and share it with your network.Subscribe for more insights, interviews, and deep dives into the world of Web 3.

In dieser Update Folge von Kassenzone live auf der K5 erzählt Erik Reintjes, Co-Gründer von MissPompadour, wie die führende D2C-Marke fürs Thema Streichen dank radikaler Kundenzentrierung den Farbenhandel umkrempelt. Im Mittelpunkt steht die hauseigene App: Über 200 000 Downloads, 60 000 tägliche Öffnungen, mehr als 13 000 Vor-/Nachher-Fotos pro Monat, ein um 40 Prozent höherer Warenkorb und voraussichtlich sieben Millionen Euro Jahresumsatz machen sie zur zentralen Wachstumsmaschine . Die App bündelt Beratung, Community-Content und Treueprogramm – und verankert die Marke dort, wo Kundinnen ihre Projekte starten. Erik schildert, wie MissPompadour aus einem kleinen Familienladen hervorging, während der Pandemie zweistellig wuchs und heute profitabel skaliert. Entscheidende Hebel sind eine empathische Beratung, KI-gestützte Content-Produktion und ein kompromissloser Fokus auf Bedürfnisse, die klassische Baumärkte oft übersehen. Ob DIY-Trendfarben wie „Butter Yellow“, nachhaltige Rezepturen oder neue B2B-Konzepte – MissPompadour testet schnell, hört zu und baut rund um die vorwiegend weibliche Zielgruppe eine loyale Community auf. Hörenswert für alle, die verstehen wollen, wie Technologie, Service und Storytelling zusammenwirken, um ein erklärungsbedürftiges Produkt online erfolgreich zu machen.

Sandi DuBowski discusses the one-year anniversary of his film Sabbath Queen, which he spent 21 years making. He reflects on the journey of the 21st-century radical rabbi and how it has shaped their life. He discusses the inspiration behind his film, Tomboychik, the concept of which was developed after conversations with his grandmother. The film is a living video memorial to her spirit; it won several awards, including the Golden Gate award at the San Francisco Film Festival and the Whitney Museum program, and launched Sandi into the film world. Documentary Films and Festivals Sandi talks about his work as an associate director of the New York Lesbian/Gay Experimental Film Video festival, MIX. He initially worked on a feature film called Fresh Kill and later worked for Planned Parenthood as a researcher and producing videos. After working for Planned Parenthood, he started filming the major feature documentary, Trembling Before G-d, about Hasidic and Orthodox Jews who are lesbian or gay. The film had a World Premiere at Sundance, and won two prizes at the Berlin Film Festival. It screened in cinemas and festivals worldwide, and Sandi went on the road for three years, doing outreach and engagement. Sandi concludes by expressing gratitude for the support and funding he received from the Steven Spielberg Righteous Persons Foundation. He also mentions that his film Sabbath Queen has been a significant moment in his life, as he reconnects with classmates from Harvard, high school, elementary school, film, queer, Jewish, and activist circles. The film has been a testament to the power of storytelling and the transformative power of time. Breaking from Traditional Religious Conventions Sandi fell into the world of filmmaking by accident. He worked with great people, including cinematographers and editors, to create a team of creatives. The film "Trembling Before G-d" was a significant leap forward in technical craft and embraced the lives of people who were not in the public realm. The first Orthodox gay Rabbi came out in the film, and the first person from a Hasidic world to come out as lesbian was featured. The film also convinced Orthodox rabbis to speak publicly on the issue, which was a tipping point in the culture. The filmmaker met with Amichai, who was already post-denominational and pushing the boundaries of Orthodoxy. Sandi talks about the film's concept and how it inspired a Muslim man to make a movie on Islam and homosexuality. Filming the Documentary Sabbath Queen Sandi shares the journey of filming Sabbath Queen, which involved following Rabbi Amichai over 21 years. The film took six years to edit due to multiple storylines, nearly 3000 hours of footage, and time spent exploring Amichai's complex identity and his numerous worlds within his rabbinic family. The film was a complicated project, but Sandi and Amichai have remained close friends. The film is Biblical in many ways, as it is a coming of age and a paradigm shift from a thousands-year-old faith to the present. The film aims to address the challenges faced by religion, as well as the rise of authoritarianism and fascism. Sandi believes that creating a film that looks at time and how values can be manifested in our lives, communities, families, houses of worship, and nations is crucial for upholding values and morals. A Documentary Filmmaker's Journey Sandi shares his experiences and lessons learned from his journey as a documentary filmmaker. He explains that his life has been unexpected and doesn't fit neatly into boxes. He also shares his experience with Good Pitch, a platform that focuses on social issue documentaries and collaborations with filmmakers. He has built a strong community around films and the film movement, which has been translated into his work with Sabbath Queen. He believes that film communities intersect with many other communities, creating an outpouring of connection and networks. One of the ways Sabbath Queen is promoting community is through live rituals and gatherings. In Berlin, he hosted a Sabbath Queen Friday night feast with Rabbi Amichai, which encouraged togetherness, peacemaking, and reflection. In San Francisco, they hosted a SoulSpa and in Chicago a Saturday night Let the Light In. Sandi also talks about expanded cinema and the importance of gathering, him co-founding a progressive group called The Creative Resistance with media makers and a Queens Food Caravan. Sandi discusses the importance of having creative collaborators who provide feedback and help in the process of creating a character-driven film. He mentions that it is crucial to have test screenings and feedback screenings to help filmmakers work on their work over time. Influential Harvard Professors and Courses Sandi mentions a History and Literature course on the Vietnam War. The course focused on the interdisciplinary nature of storytelling and history, which helped Sandi understand how we process our lives, stories, wounds, and traumas.

Send us a textWhat happens when passionate customer feedback clashes with cold, hard data? Jake McKee tackles this age-old product dilemma with wisdom earned from years at Lego and building communities for Fortune 500 brands. This episode of the customer success playbook reveals why treating community building as relationship development—not just feedback collection—transforms how companies balance emotional customer input with analytical metrics. McKee's "everybody goes home happy" philosophy demonstrates how sustainable product decisions emerge when companies design mutually beneficial relationships rather than extracting value from user communities. From scale modeling to high-end fusion restaurants, this conversation weaves personal insights with professional strategies for community-driven product development.Detailed AnalysisMcKee's approach to resolving the tension between passionate customer feedback and data-driven metrics represents a sophisticated understanding of modern product development challenges. His framework moves beyond the traditional either/or mentality to reveal how qualitative community insights can actually strengthen quantitative analysis when properly interpreted through relationship context.The discussion illuminates critical flaws in conventional product development cycles, particularly the tendency to collect requirements upfront, disappear into development "black boxes" for months, then emerge with solutions disconnected from evolving customer needs. McKee's community-driven product development methodology keeps customer voices actively engaged throughout the development process, creating real-time feedback loops that prevent costly misalignments.Perhaps most valuable is McKee's perspective on starting small with community building. Rather than investing in expensive platforms and complex infrastructure, he advocates for beginning immediately with simple relationship-building activities—introducing customers to each other, facilitating peer connections, and treating community development as an ongoing relationship rather than a marketing project. This customer success playbook approach recognizes that authentic communities emerge from genuine value exchange, not sophisticated technology platforms.The conversation also explores the nuanced art of community participation, whether in branded platforms or external spaces like Reddit. McKee's guidance on "showing up" rather than "taking over" provides practical wisdom for companies looking to engage authentically with existing customer communities rather than disrupting established dynamics.Now you can interact with us directly by leaving a voice message at https://www.speakpipe.com/CustomerSuccessPlaybookKevin's offeringPlease Like, Comment, Share and Subscribe.

Bullied almost every day as a shy, small-built expat kid in London, Ash quickly realized that survival wasn't about being the loudest in the room, it was about finding your people. The lack of connection in those early years made one thing painfully clear: community isn't a luxury, it's oxygen. Ash powered through adversity, earning degrees from MIT and Oxford, not just collecting certificates, but building a mind sharpened by code and a heart tuned to human behavior. He went on to lead major tech projects for the BBC, HMRC, and the UK Government, impacting millions of lives — but something was missing. That "something" became Odd Circles, his bold answer to a quiet crisis: coaches, mentors, and solo experts stuck in isolation, overbooked and underpaid, struggling to grow in a world demanding scale. With Odd Circles, Ash built more than a SaaS platform — he built a movement, helping coaches turn one-way content into two-way conversations, followers into paying members, and burnout into belonging. Today, thousands of creators and experts use Odd Circles to build communities that 3x their income, but more importantly, they build circles where no one feels like the odd one out.

385 Beacons of Fellowship In a world so full of division, strife, and polarization, it can be easy to get caught up in the chaos of which path to follow. Which is why it is vital to put your own voice out there, not just to speak up for your beliefs, but so that those who you support and care for will know you are right beside them in this fight. In a world so obsessed with hate, there is no more powerful weapon than love and community. In today's episode, Sarah Elkins uses the art of storytelling to tell us what truly matters to her while also weaving tales of her success and strengths, as well as speaking of what truly matters to her. Highlights Applying skills found in the workplace to the home, and vice versa. Standing for what you believe will make enemies, but it will also give others the strength to follow you. How do you want to show up in the world? How can you make your signals be in alignment with your beliefs. Quotes “Every story we share has the potential to shape how we experience ourselves, and how other people perceive us.” “Through a combination of curiosity and intention, I started to build a community that was far more diverse. Not for the sake of diversity, but for the sake of inclusion, personal growth, and love.” Dear Listeners it is now your turn, If you're willing to look in the mirror and really consider how you want to be experienced by the community around you, what will you do to ensure that you are signaling those values in everything you do? What decision will you make today to stop contributing to the polarization and start reconnecting with those you care about? And, as always, thank you for listening. About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!
