Remember when fictional bands ruled our screens and our CD players? This week, we're cranking up the nostalgia and drafting the ultimate Battle of the Bands—Blockbuster-style.In this bonus episode of No More Late Fees, Jackie and Danielle are joined by returning guest Zack to break down the greatest fictional bands from '90s and early 2000s movies and TV. What starts as a fun round-robin draft quickly turns into a full-on pop culture showdown, complete with passionate defenses, surprise deep cuts, and a few controversial hot takes.The trio dives into iconic on-screen music moments, behind-the-scenes trivia, and the legacy of fictional groups that somehow felt more real than half the bands on TRL. Along the way, they unpack character arcs, analyze what made certain movie soundtracks hit so hard, and debate which band would actually survive a real battle of the bands. There's plenty of witty commentary, nostalgic tangents about comfort shows, and fandom-fueled chaos that longtime listeners know and love.From subliminal pop satire to one-hit-wonder glory, this episode celebrates the magic of fictional music in film—why it worked, why we're still obsessed, and which group truly deserves the crown.If you grew up quoting your favorite music movies, memorizing soundtrack lyrics, and pretending your friend group was definitely going to “make it big,” this episode is your jam.Love what you hear?

If you're a high-achieving woman who looks confident on the outside but feels anxious, self-doubting, or never quite “good enough” on the inside…this episode is for you. In Episode 156, I'm joined by Ashley Emmons, a therapist who specializes in helping high-performing women manage performance anxiety, quiet negative self-talk, and actually believe they're capable of the goals they're chasing. Ashley is also a runner herself, which means she truly gets the mental gymnastics that come with training, racing, and constantly pushing for “more.” We talk about: Why confidence isn't something you're born with (and why that's good news) How performance anxiety shows up in runners and high-achievers What to do when negative self-talk hijacks your training or daily life Simple, practical tools to regulate anxiety in the moment How to start trusting yourself instead of constantly second-guessing This conversation is grounding, empowering, and packed with tools you can actually use—on the run and off.

Welcome to the interview podcast providing an inside scoop on comedy scenes across the globe. We are dedicated to speaking with the true mavericks of the comedy world.In this episode, join acclaimed comedian Dane Baptiste for an unfiltered look at his journey, from his humble beginnings to conquering the Edinburgh Fringe. Dane dives deep into the harsh realities of the comedy industry, the hurdles of creating a Black sitcom, and the nuances of racism in the UK versus the USA.From navigating "cancel culture" to the raw truth about fame and ego, Baptiste explores why comedy remains the ultimate tool for explaining culture and speaking truth to power.Episode Timestamps:[[01:28]] My humble beginnings in comedy [[07:04]][[04:46]] TikTok culture and its impact on society [[07:00]][[10:11]] The challenges of starting a comedy journey [[13:53]][[14:10]] Creating a Black sitcom on a micro-budget [[19:59]][[19:59]] Conquering the Edinburgh Fringe with limited resources [[25:32]][[25:32]] Ego and the comedy industry [[27:05]][[27:09]] The truth about comedy promoters and critics [[29:19]][[35:12]] Validation and navigating "BS" in the comedy space [[40:11]][[41:37]] Comparing racism in the UK and the USA [[46:31]][[47:00]] Cheap race jokes and the "blame game" [[01:01:20]][[01:02:37]] The power of comedy [[01:04:05]][[01:08:00]] Why most people don't want to tell the truth to rock the boat [[01:15:00]][[01:15:37]] My role as an observational comedian [[01:17:17]][[01:17:27]] Life advice, cancellation, and the rarity of being heard [[01:20:00]][[01:22:00]] Survival advice for being "cancelled" [[01:30:00]]Connect with Dane Baptiste:Official Website: danebaptiste.co.ukYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DaneBaptisteComedyLinktree: https://linktr.ee/DaneBaptistePodcast: https://shorturl.at/SWnXeComing Soon: Citizen DaneFollow & Support This Podcast:YouTube: https://bit.ly/41LWDAqSpotify: spoti.fiSpotify:https://spoti.fi/3oLrmyU,Apple podcasts: https://apple.co/3LEkr3ESupport us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thecomediansparadise#danebaptiste #comedypodcast #cancelculture #standupcomedy #britishcomedy #edinburghfringe #blackbritishcomedy #comedyindustry #socialcommentary #ukvsusa #thecomediansparadise #podcastinterview
When the ground gives way and the headlines roar, most of us reach for control. We built this message around Psalm 46 to offer a better refuge: the living God who is “a very present help in trouble.” We start where the psalm starts, naming the chaos with honesty—mountains moving, waters foaming, nations raging—and then we trace the surprising turn to a quiet river that makes the city of God glad. That shift isn't poetic window dressing; it's a map for anxious souls learning to breathe again.We walk through the Scriptures that echo this pattern. At the Red Sea, God saves at daybreak while His people stand still. With Elisha, an unseen army fills the hills while fear shrinks the horizon. On the Sea of Galilee, Jesus silences a storm with three words and exposes the gap between our panic and His peace. These scenes aren't museum pieces; they are invitations to see scale rightly: God's voice outweighs the loudest crisis. That's why “Be still and know that I am God” is more than a coffee-mug comfort. It is a royal decree to warring nations and warring hearts, a call to yield to the true King who will be exalted in the earth.We also press the promise home. The reason the city stands isn't the river; it's the God in the midst. In Christ, the fortress is not a place we run to earn, but a refuge we receive by grace. Your life can be hidden with Him today—supplied by daily mercies, guarded by steadfast love, and steadied by a hope that looks past night toward morning. If you've been trying to outshout the storm, come hear why surrender is safer than self-salvation and how to practice God's presence when the world shakes. Listen, share with a friend who needs courage, and if this encouraged you, subscribe and leave a review so others can find their way to the fortress too.

Imagine being afraid of a pickle. Or a banana. Or a nub of bread. That’s daily life for people with ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder). It's an eating disorder not driven by weight or body image, but by fear, sensory overwhelm, or low appetite. People with this condition experience real terror and powerful aversions to certain foods - far beyond picky eating. Clinical psychologist Dr. Evelyna Kambanis explains ARFID, who it affects, and how treatment helps people reclaim their lives. Andrew Luber (aka “ARFID Andrew”) shares his funny, blunt, and vulnerable attempts at food exposures online. And Danielle Meinert tells the story of carrying ARFID since toddlerhood, and the startling change she says came after a high-dose psilocybin experience.

Episode Overview In this episode, John Kitchens is joined by Joel Perso for Part 3 of the Conquering Operational Chaos Power Hour series—with a deep, tactical dive into real estate operations. This conversation pulls back the curtain on what actually breaks growing real estate businesses—not leads, not talent, but operational chaos. John and Joel break down how to build consistent, repeatable buyer and listing systems that protect client experience, elevate team performance, and unlock the next level of scale. If you've ever felt like your business would collapse if volume doubled tomorrow, this episode gives you the blueprint to fix it—before it costs you deals, reputation, or your sanity. Key Topics Covered Why Operations Are the Real Growth Constraint Why there are no neutral client interactions—every moment builds or erodes trust How inconsistent systems quietly damage brand reputation Why most teams break after success, not before it The Power of Proven, Repeatable Systems Turning chaos into clarity through documented processes Why consistency beats talent when scaling a team How systems protect culture, clients, and profitability Listing Systems That Create Confidence Lead follow-up processes for expireds, FSBOs, and seller leads Pre-listing packets, appointment confirmations, and pricing strategy Walkthrough frameworks that demonstrate expertise and build trust Setting expectations early to avoid pricing and timeline conflict Buyer Systems That Win Loyalty (and Offers) Internet lead follow-up and buyer qualification frameworks Why showings are the most underrated trust-building moment Leading showings like an expert—not a door opener Offer-writing consistency and marketplace reputation Contract-to-Close: Where Deals Are Won or Lost Why handoffs between agents, TCs, lenders, and title matter The mindset shift: assume no one else will catch the mistake Reviewing title commitments, appraisals, and closing statements Preventing last-minute chaos through proactive leadership Scaling the Right Way Fixing "below-the-waterline" problems before cosmetic upgrades Why V1 systems beat no systems—perfection comes later How operational clarity unlocks recruiting, retention, and freedom Resources & Mentions Agent to CEO Mastermind CoachKitchens.ai – AI-powered systems and SOP support Sisu – Dashboard, transaction management, and client portals Honey Badger Nation Community Growth Centric Consulting – Joel Perso Final Takeaway You don't scale by adding more leads—you scale by removing chaos. Operational excellence isn't about paperwork or bureaucracy. It's about leadership, trust, and delivering a consistent experience that compounds over time. When your systems are clear, your agents perform better, your clients trust deeper, and your business finally becomes scalable. As John puts it: "Assume no one else is going to do their job—and lead the entire transaction." That mindset changes everything.

It's easy to think your ambitions are gone forever once you're a parent, or worse, after a divorce. Suddenly, “having it all” feels unrealistic, if not impossible. But Sarah Armstrong is proof that ambition doesn't just disappear. It evolves. This week on SUPERWOMEN, I sat down with Sarah, VP of Global Marketing Operations at Google, and author of The Art of the Juggling Act and The Mom's Guide to a Good Divorce. She shares what it looked like to keep her career moving through motherhood, divorce, and single parenting, without losing herself in the process. We talk about choosing what matters, setting boundaries that actually hold up, and letting go of pressure that does more harm than good. If you've ever wondered whether your goals still fit the life you're living now, this one's for you.

Get ready to relive peak 90s sports-movie chaos, because this bonus episode of No More Late Fees is all about flying V energy, childhood crushes, and extremely serious hockey opinions. Jackie and Danielle are back on the ice, revisiting The Mighty Ducks trilogy in a way only they can—equal parts reverent, chaotic, and lovingly unhinged.In this episode, the hosts break down Mighty Ducks lore through a full-on character draft, pulling players from all three films and debating who truly deserves a roster spot. Along the way, they dig into behind-the-scenes trivia, character arcs that aged surprisingly well (and some that absolutely did not), and the emotional weight of growing up on Disney Channel sports movies. Expect hot takes on Julie “The Cat,” Adam Banks' undeniable talent, Bash Brothers strategy, and why Iceland may be the most iconic villain team of the era.The conversation also veers into broader nostalgia, touching on kids sports movies that shaped an entire generation, questionable accents, rich-kid antagonists, and the cultural pipeline from The Mighty Ducks to modern sports fandom. With witty commentary, playful arguments, and deep-cut references, this episode feels like hanging out with friends who know way too much about 90s movies—and are proud of it.If you grew up rewinding VHS tapes, yelling “quack, quack” at the TV, or forming lifelong opinions about fictional hockey teams, this episode is for you.

I just watched a documentary on Alexander the Great and tried to do what I always do — turn world domination into punchlines. From conquering Persia before age 30 to having the confidence of a guy who's never bombed on stage, Alexander might be the original “main character energy.”In this episode of Reality is Optional, I break down the wildest moments from the documentary and try to find the comedy in ancient warfare, ego, legacy, and what happens when you think you're unstoppable.We've got:Alexander tutored by Aristotle; conquering most of the known world before 32; elite military strategy and questionable emotional decisions; what happens when your army is tired but you're still chasing glory; and why every comic secretly thinks they're Alexander at an open mic.History meets stand-up. Empires fall. Jokes rise.#AlexanderTheGreat#HistoryComedy#DocumentaryCommentary#AncientHistory#StandUpPodcast

In the early 1950s, Jonas Salk and Albert Sabin were in a race to develop a vaccine against polio. While Salk's killed-virus vaccine was the first to be distributed, Sabin continued working to perfect his own approach. In the end, Sabin's oral polio vaccine—made from a weakened live virus—proved easier to administer and was ultimately distributed far more widely, though his name never achieved the same recognition. In this episode, Lindsay is joined by epidemiologist and oral historian Karen Torghele. Her book Albert Sabin: The Life of a Polio Vaccine Pioneer is due to be published by Yale University Press in June of 2026.

Introduction: If you have your Bibles let me invite you to open with me to the book of Revelation chapter 12. We have transitioned now in our study of Revelation to a series of seven visions that highlight and emphasize particularly the enemies of God, their wicked work in the world, and their ultimate…
In this sermon, Chris Romig centers on Revelation chapter 12 as the key to understanding the cosmic battle between God and Satan. He explains that the chapter reveals the deeper story behind world events: Satan, after being defeated by Jesus at the cross, now turns his fury on God's people—both Israel and Christian believers. Chris Romig underscores how this ongoing conflict explains centuries of suffering and anti-Semitism, as well as the challenges Christians face today. He highlights two of Satan's main strategies: deception (twisting truth and distracting people from God) and accusation (filling believers with guilt and doubt). Despite Satan's rage and strength, Chris Romig reassures listeners that Christians overcome the devil "by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony." He calls believers to live boldly in their victory through Jesus, not allowing fear or accusation to hold them back. The message ends with a communal declaration of faith in Jesus's saving work, reminding listeners that nothing can separate them from God's love and that Satan's defeat is certain. Chris Romig closes with a note of triumph and encouragement: victory is already won through Jesus Christ.
In April 1954, a group of first graders lined up in the gymnasium of an elementary school in McLean, Virginia for the start of the Salk polio vaccine trials. In an era before widespread federal government involvement in public health, the National Institute of Infantile Paralysis executed an unprecedented experiment involving nearly 2 million children and tens of thousands of doctors, nurses, and volunteers. It was the largest peacetime mobilization in American history.While scientists evaluated the results, Americans waited anxiously to find out whether the vaccine was safe and effective, putting an end to 40 years of fear. But in the spring of 1955, a shocking revelation would bring the vaccination program to a sudden halt.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

Episode 2873: Seth Sinclair explores why "people problems" feel so uncomfortable, and how our emotional brain sabotages us in difficult conversations. Drawing on insights from Crucial Conversations and Daniel Goleman's "amygdala hijack," he offers a practical first step to stop conflict before it spirals: recognize the emotional surge early and plan your approach with empathy and intention. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://michaelmehlberg.com/blog/2016/3/2/3-steps-to-conquering-people-problems Quotes to ponder: "We can quickly build up a lot of anxiety and anger, even before we have all of the facts or a chance to reflect on what is going happening." "We unconsciously start to build assumptions about why the other person is wrong, why they are a jerk, why we are right, and why we feel we should 'win' this issue." "Here are three basic strategies you can start using right away to get better results: avoid getting caught off guard, learn to pay attention to yourself, and seek to bring out the best in the other person."

By the late 1940s, the National Institute of Infantile Paralysis had raised millions of dollars to pay for patient care and laboratory research. But polio cases were reaching record levels, and scientists were no closer to a cure. Frustrated by the slow progress, Basil O'Connor resolved to recruit fresh talent to the cause. He soon found what he was looking for in a young and energetic researcher named Jonas Salk.In 1951, Salk began testing a killed virus polio vaccine on monkeys in his Pittsburgh lab. His research soon put him at odds with the leading polio scientist Albert Sabin, who wanted his own live virus vaccine formula to prevail. As their rivalry escalated, Salk prepared to take the risky step of testing his vaccine on human subjects.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

Doctors diagnosed him with polio, which was fast becoming America's most dreaded infectious disease.Every summer, polio struck without warning, causing swimming pools and movie theaters to close and panicked parents to keep their children indoors. Polio killed thousands of Americans each year and paralyzed many more.
