We delve into a form of indentured servitude in the name of debt clearance, the birth of nonprofit hospitals, a pivotal shift in the 1980s, feasibility of operating healthcare under free market principles, medical economics in the 1600s, hospitals suing patients, and the emergence of medical debt as its own thriving industry.

In this Predictable B2B Success episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with the innovative entrepreneur Carl Pihl.

From implementing double email verification to launching the revolutionary "magic link" during the pandemic, Carl and his team are dedicated to solving customer problems one by one. But it doesn't stop there.  Carl reveals their challenges when servicing customers in certain countries and their constant pursuit of becoming the merchant of record. Join us as we delve into the world of Ticketing Hub, exploring Carl's insights on product-led growth, the importance of continuous improvement and customer communication, and how they have managed to secure large customers by being candid and flexible.  Get ready for a captivating conversation where we uncover the secrets behind Carl's approach to building successful B2B relationships and maximizing customer satisfaction. Don't miss this exciting episode full of valuable advice and industry insights that will leave you inspired and ready to take your own B2B success to new heights. Carl Pihl is a serial entrepreneur and the founder of Ticketing Hub. At a young age, he started a project called Student Student Books, which aimed to provide a social platform similar to Facebook for international students in London. Although this venture did not succeed, it taught him valuable lessons about the international student market and the importance of building a social infrastructure for students. Inspired by his previous project, Carl and his team developed a pitch to language schools, offering them a way to make money and enhance the experience of their international students. This pitch was well-received, and they quickly grew their business, selling 15 to 25,000 tickets per week. They even managed to secure a deal with Merlin Entertainment and other attractions. However, they faced challenges with ticket distribution and printing inefficiencies. Wanting to digitalize the process and scale to other locations, Carl sought the help of a ticketing company but encountered complications and resistance from the schools. Frustrated with their system, he decided to create their own software to simplify ticket printing and distribution. Carl's business expanded further when they acquired a franchise of a company called Mini Cards, which gave them access to 200 hotels. They successfully sold tickets in smaller hotels but faced a setback when they discovered their tickets were being duplicated and used without authorization.

Was Ancel Keys responsible for the modern epidemic of obesity? If you have read any low carb blog lately, you would think so. Their revisionist history is broken down to this: Ancel Keys was an influential scientist who thought fat was to blame for heart disease He did a study of diet and correlated fat and heart disease in those people of the seven countries But Dr. Keys left out countries that would have proven his hypothesis wrong The influence of Dr. Keys work turned the US away from saturated fat and to sugar Sugar causes obesity and all the lifestyle illness of the world Dr. Keys brought us snackwells instead of pork rinds and we are all obese with diabetes You will find versions of this in blogs, books, and videos.  Low-carb bloggers plagiarize one another. Nor have they never the primary source material. The Mediterranean Diet Founder and the StudyKeys is the founder of the https://www.yourdoctorsorders.com/2022/08/the-modern-mediterranean-diet/ (Mediterranean Diet). He was a pioneer physiologist, one of the first to show that diet was an important component of heart disease. In the 1950's few considered diet an important component of heart disease. Rich People and Diets "In 1952 when Margaret and I were making surveys in Naples and then Madrid. It seemed quite clear that there was some relationship between diet and the incidence of coronary heart disease. Rich people had different diets and different blood cholesterols, and they had the only heart attacks in town. When those findings were written up and presented at a meeting in Amsterdam, some people were impressed and some didn't believe anything about it. " - Ancel Keys This early observation by Keys  was the impetus for  the Seven Country Study. That diet was responsible for heart disease was contrary to the prevailing theory: in the 1950's heart disease was hypothesized to be phenomenon of aging.  Dr. Keys meticulous research revealed the strong correlation between heart disease and a diet rich in saturated fat. The First GraphThe graph below is a result of looking at macro dietary statistics of a country compared with death rates from heart disease. Keys presented this data at a WHO meeting in the early 1950's. The conclusion about fat and heart disease,  was met with a great deal of skepticism. Diet was not considered a factor in heart disease. While this data points to a potential cause, to examine this hypothesis one must perform a cohort study. Some assume that Keys collected country wide data about diet and heart disease, but he did not. Bloggers probably assume this based on this graph, as well as the name, Seven Countries Study. But the Seven Country Study was far more precise. The Study was a Cohort type study. Cohort StudiesA cohort study follows subjects for a long period of time. The Seven Countries Study followed over 12,000 men for nearly 50 years. Following these men involved yearly physical examinations, blood work, hospital and death records, as well as very specific dietary follow up. Of all the factors examined, saturated fat and blood cholesterol were most correlated with  heart disease. One of the more common myths about the Seven Country Study was that sugar was not examined. In fact, sugar was examined as an independent dietary factor. Sugar was not an primary variable for heart disease, unless combined with saturated fat. Testing both low and high fat countriesThe low-carb bloggers assume that Keys only tested those countries whose diet was rich in carbs, and low in fat. Keys chose his cohorts based on different diets, from those who were low fat, to high fat. Total fat, as it turns out, was not a factor for heart disease. Greeks had 40% of their dietary calories from fat but a low heart disease rate.Most of their fat came from monounsaturated fat,  olive oil. The Finish CohortThe Finland cohort was chosen precisely because of their high fat diet: "Loggers' lunches, even...

Monica McInerney's best-selling and award-winning books explore the resilience and fragility of family bonds, whether in a single-mother family as in her latest book, The Godmothers, or in earlier ones like the hugely popular The Trip of a Lifetime. This one introduced, as one critic put it, “a huge-hearted and colorful family you'll want to call your own”. Australian born and Dublin based when we're not in pandemic, Monica tops reader popularity polls for warm family stories packed with emotion on both sides of the world. Hi, I'm your host Jenny Wheeler, and today Monica talks about why she loves the drama of big families – she's from a big family herself – and about her first published book in her primary school library. She got her first paid writing job as a script writer on a popular children's TV show when she was just in her teens, and she has been writing in one form or another ever since.

But now, here's Monica.Jenny Wheeler: Hello there, Monica and welcome to the show. It's great to have you with us. Introducing Monica McInerney Monica McInerney: Hello, Jenny. Thanks very much for talking to me. Monica McInerney - popular family stories Jenny Wheeler: You are in South Australia, I'm in New Zealand; we're both rather lucky in terms of what's going on in the rest of the world. You have been published regularly in Australia's Booktopia Top 10 as one of the most popular authors in that country, and you've made emotional women's stories your chosen area of expertise. As one reviewer put it, you explore the resiliency and fragility of family bonds. What drew you to that territory initially? Monica McInerney: I think it's because I grew up as the middle child in a family of nine, Jenny, to be honest. I've got six brothers and sisters and I'm the middle child. I grew up in a small country town called Clare in the Clare Valley of South Australia. From the earliest I can remember I was surrounded by people, by drama, by comedy. My father was the railway stationmaster and we lived in the stationmaster's house. It was always visitors, friends, families, relatives visiting, and so constant squeaking of the gate as people arrived with stories to tell – some news, some drama, a funny thing to share – and that really concentrated my mind, even as a child, how interesting families can be. Agatha Christie's microcosm Agatha Christie always said that she set all of her books in small villages because they were a microcosm of the whole world. For me, families are that. Through them are introduced to so many different elements of being a human being under the family roof – grief and love and sometimes bitterness, sometimes difficulties, sibling rivalry, and all of that is such rich pickings for a novel, so I trace it all back to my childhood. Jenny Wheeler: The Godmothers, which is your most recent book and the one we'll focus on today, is Eliza's story. She's the sole child of a single mother who, though troubled, creates a magic world for her daughter. The outside reader can see that this magic world that is related through Eliza's eyes, is also a little bit turbulent on the surface, but she's also got safety and oversight from two remarkable godmothers who are the godmothers of the...
