Think less "warm reunion" and more "group therapy session with snacks and sarcasm."Chad and Tim crawl out from their academic hellholes to humblebrag about finals, while Javier dives into the emotional minefield of health woes, family drama, and the eternal quest for a ‘Good Job, Son' from a dad who thinks feelings are for communists.Just when you think it can't get weirder, a random 17-year-old named Maddox calls in live to ask if Eminem is still relevant—and shocker, we actually had thoughts. Cue the hot takes and hip-hop nostalgia.Then comes the real test of friendship: Chinese snacks. Spicy konjac strips? Hawthorne fruit bars? Sounds cute until your taste buds file a formal complaint. You'll laugh, you'll cringe, you might even order a mystery snack box out of morbid curiosity.We sprinkle in sports rants, rage against scalpers, and finish with a necro-courtroom drama starring a medieval pope who literally dug up a corpse to win an argument.This isn't just a podcast—it's a barely contained meltdown wrapped in nostalgia and dipped in absurdity. #DeadPopesAndKonjac #PodcastChaos #EmotionalDamage #HipHopHotTakes #SnackAttackShowdown Fake ad Fake ad Fake adCALL OR TEXT OUR HOTLINE AND LEAVE US A MESSAGE! 817-677-0408Fort Worth MagazineBest of 2022 - Radio Personality/Podcast (Reader's Pick) Show LinksThe Funky PantherMerchYouTube

Today we take on some of the questions we get from parents. How can you give room freedom if your teenager shares that room with a sibling?

Cue the soapbox. If you have a minute, please leave us a review. We love hearing listeners encouraging other listeners.

Nate's fresh off sweating through a Georgia scorcher with a frosty pint in hand, and Brian's just survived a medieval dental visit where his dentist told him—get this—he has a small mouth. (Cue audience laughter.)But never fear, the mics are hot and the beer is cold.American Craft Beer Week – What's the Big Deal?Craft Beer Week isn't just a clever excuse to drink more (though it helps).

Have you ever had a dream that lingered in your bones, even if you didn't fully understand it? One that wrapped around your heart like a warm shawl, whispering meaning even without words? In this soul-nourishing episode of the Dreamifesting podcast, I had the joy of basking—yes, basking!—in the radiant dreamlight with the luminous Katherine Bell, host of The Dream Journal Podcast and upcoming author of Dreams: The Treasure Hunt. Together, we explored the gentle art of simply being with our dreams, soaking in their glow before we rush to analyze them. Katherine shared a dream in which she found herself locked out of her podcast studio—until her inner child appeared beside her. When she reached out to take the little girl's hand, the doors opened wide, as if a red carpet had been rolled out just for them. Cue the goosebumps! And the tears. Because isn't it often our inner child who holds the keys to our most sacred spaces?

It's winter in Stoneybrook, and the baby-sitters are off to Vermont for the annual trip to Leicester Lodge, hosts of the Winter War. No sooner do they arrive at the Overlook-esque ski lodge than a real ripsnorter of a storm blows in (with thanks for the phrase to local armchair meteorologist Teensy Mooseman), and a busload of children are stranded without adequate supervision. Cue the BSC! They spend the week caring for kids, competing for colors, and crushing on maybe Canadians, with plenty of hot chocolate and local legends to go around.

Where will Meta, Apple, and Google be three years from now? It's starting to look like they might all be very different. Nilay, David, and The Verge's Richard Lawler start the show with Eddy Cue's testimony in the Google search trial, in which Cue argued that AI is taking over — and that Google should be allowed to keep paying Apple gobs of money. The hosts also chat about the latest in the Meta trials, and how the recent Apple ruling is already changing the App Store.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1039: Today we're talking about Carvana's record-setting quarter and bold new goal, Ford's strategic price hikes post-tariffs, and why Google's stock took a beating after an Apple exec dropped a courtroom AI bomb.Show Notes with links:Carvana has bounced back in a major way, setting a new quarterly record for used-vehicle sales and showcasing the company's transformation from high-growth chaos to sustainable profitability, even amid looming tariff concerns.Q1 retail sales hit 133,898 units, up 46% year over year—beating their prior record by 16,000 vehicles.Net income reached $373M; revenue surged 38% to $4.2B.Tariffs caused a temporary demand bump, but Carvana is now focused on adapting inventory to price-sensitive consumer behavior.Carvana aims to sell 3 million vehicles annually within 5–10 years, targeting a 13.5% adjusted EBITDA margin by fully utilizing its existing infrastructure like ADESA megasites and inspection centers.CEO Ernie Garcia emphasized flexibility: “We've got significant margin to work with… and significant cash balances.”As the auto industry adjusts to newly announced tariffs, Ford is selectively increasing prices on several 2025 models while shielding current dealer inventory.Starting May 2, 2025 Mavericks, Bronco Sports, and Mach-Es (all produced in Mexico) will see MSRP increases of $600–$2,000, depending on trim and features.Existing stock and vehicles already in transit will keep their original sticker prices.Earlier this week, Ford withdrew its 2025 outlook, citing $1.5B in expected tariff-related earnings impact.Ford is one of the first major automakers to publicly respond to the impact of the tariffs with pricing strategy.“We can't forecast what we can't see,” said one executive privatelyIn a courtroom twist, an Apple executive may have confirmed Google's worst fear—that AI is starting to eat into its search dominance.Eddy Cue, Apple's services chief, testified that Safari searches dipped in April for the first time ever, likely due to users turning to AI tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity.Cue expects Apple will eventually add AI search engines as user-selectable options in Safari.The revelation came during Google's antitrust trial, where Apple disclosed it receives over $20B annually to keep Google the default.Google stock fell more than 7% following Cue's testimony, wiping out tens of billions in market cap. They responded by saying “we continue to see overall query growth,” especially from Apple platforms.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

 Today, we're talking with Nancy De Losa from AQTO Cycling Tours in Italy. For AQTO, the magic of riding in Italy is all about the challenge and reward. You get testing yourself on Italy's most exhilarating climbs and descents while immersing yourself in authentic Italian hospitality. Facebook   Twitter   Instagram Love the show? Subscribe,  rate, review, and share! Sign up for my Newsletter  HERE I'd love to hear your feedback about the show! You can contact me here:  rick@theoutdoorbizpodcast.com   What Happened: We didn't mean to start a cycling tour business in Italy. No, really. It all started with a blog post. Damien rode a legendary vintage bike ride in Tuscany, blogged about it for his cycling apparel brand, and boom—emails started rolling in: “Do you run tours?” Cue the two of us looking at each other with raised eyebrows and saying, “...Maybe we do?” One spontaneous road trip, a few door knocks, and a hotel booking later—AQTO Cycling Tours was born. Here's the kicker: I'm not a cyclist. Not even close. I married one. I live with one. But cycling? Doesn't sing to my soul. Yoga and red wine, yes. Lycra and bike grease? Not so much. So I created something for the others like me—the non-cycling partners, the half-riders, the aspiring adventurers who want the Italian magic without the saddle sores. From curated cooking classes to 3,000-year-old olive trees, that little side program became a unique (and very loved) part of our brand. Principle: Just because you're not the “typical” expert in the room doesn't mean you don't belong in the business. In fact, your “different lens” might be the very thing that makes the experience more complete, more inclusive, and more memorable for everyone involved. Transition: A lot of us think we need to be “all in” on something to make it work—like being a hardcore cyclist to lead cycling tours. But the truth is, many adventure-based brands get stuck trying to serve only the enthusiasts. And in doing so, they forget about the partners, the dreamers, and the curious souls who crave the journey, just not the climbs. That's why so many businesses feel out of reach for the average person. They're built on the assumption that only experts belong. That's Why: That's why this episode of the Outdoor Adventure Lifestyle Podcast exists—to show how Nancy and Damien built a boutique Italian adventure company that doesn't just cater to cyclists, but to humans who crave culture, community, and challenge. Whether you ride or not, their approach is a masterclass in designing an inclusive, enriching experience that welcomes everyone at the table (and on the trail). Call to Action: Tired of feeling like adventures are only for “serious” athletes? It's frustrating when travel feels like a test, not a treat. That's why this episode is a must-listen—because there's a different way to explore. One that fits you. [Listen here to episode 506 now] Show Notes What what advice would you give someone who's never done an international cycling tour before but wants to give it a shot? I probably would say stop thinking about it and just do it.- Nancy De Losa Do you have a favorite book? Yes, it's called "Italian Joy" by Carla Olson.

Okay, y'all… Episode 300 is HERE. Cue the confetti cannons and the alpacas! (Yes, there's an alpaca and a camel story in this episode and no, we're not kidding.) For this milestone episode, we knew we wanted to bring you something special—and what better way than to finally get the one and only Laura Buck Smith behind the mic! Laura has been on our dream guest list for a very long time because she's the one person we trust to honestly and openly talk about something we've never been able to teach on from experience: building and running a real estate team. As solo agents, we have always stayed in our individual lanes, but we know so many of you are either curious about joining a team or wondering if you should start one. And the truth is… there are so many misconceptions out there. This episode is packed with real talk, systems, and yes—Laura's incredible mix of structure and heart. Here's what we chat about in this episode: How Laura got into real estate and never worked solo What it was like building her team from the ground up The three-tier structure she uses for agents What really goes into leading 25 team members (without losing your mind) How they handle leads, admin, training, open houses, and more The five interviews (yes, FIVE) and 90-day probation period for new team members How they expanded into Alabama (spoiler: Stephen made it happen in a week!) Why team culture and consistency are non-negotiable The honest truth about when you're ready—or not ready—to lead a team Whether you've thought about building a team or you just want to learn how a well-oiled machine operates, this episode is packed with value, encouragement, and behind-the-scenes gems. We're so thankful to Laura for showing up and sharing it all—systems, stories, boundaries, and all the heart behind what they've built at Team Smith.

So, someone on Reddit wrote, “My podcast stinks,” and I think we should talk about it. Spoiler alert: just because your download numbers are low doesn't mean your podcast is a total flop—like, it's not the end of the world if you're not raking in those big numbers. We chat about how it's not just about the content but also the delivery, because if your audio sounds like it's coming from a tin can, uh, good luck with that! We also throw around some ideas on getting feedback, practicing your craft, and remembering your “why” behind podcasting. So, grab your headphones and let's chat about how to make sure your podcast doesn't suck—unless that's your goal, in which case, carry on!RedditReddit is a wild place, huh? So, some poor soul decided to air their podcast grievances and proclaimed, 'my podcast stinks!' Cue the collective gasp from the podcasting community. But instead of spiraling into despair, we examine what this actually means for podcasters everywhere. I mean, who defines success anyway? Our conversation kicks off by flipping the script on the typical podcasting narrative. We chat about how every download counts, even if it's just your mom and your dog tuning in. If you've ever thought about throwing in the towel because your download numbers look like the score of a bad baseball game, we've got some comforting truths for you. Your show could be a massive success if it brings you joy, which is really what matters, right? Your Podcast Is A JourneyThen we tackle some serious podcasting wisdom. If your audience is only a handful of people, that's still a gathering! It's like playing to a room full of friends who actually want to hear what you have to say. We argue about the importance of content and delivery, because let's face it, you could have the most riveting subject matter, but if it sounds like you recorded it in a tin can, good luck keeping anyone around. I offer some tips on spicing things up, like practicing your delivery (yes, even if it feels like talking to yourself in the mirror). Let's be honest, we all need to keep sharpening our skills. And naturally, we can't resist discussing the age-old podcasting dilemma: why are you even doing this? If your goal is to have fun, then congratulations! You're winning! But if you're in it for fame and fortune without a plan, well, you might want to rethink your strategy. The episode wraps up with some encouragement to get feedback and engage with your audience—because who knows, they might just love that thing you think is a total flop! So tune in and let's redefine success together. Takeaways: Just because your podcast isn't on the charts doesn't mean it's a flop; success looks different for everyone. If you're podcasting for fun and enjoying the process, then congratulations, you're winning at life! Your show might be reaching just a handful of listeners, but hey, those are still real humans tuning in, right? Feeling like your podcast stinks? Maybe it's time to ask for some honest feedback from friends or fellow podcasters. Tired of low download numbers? Remember, it takes time to grow an audience; patience is key, my friend! Practicing your delivery is like stretching before a workout; it makes all the difference for your podcasting game. Companies mentioned in this episode: Reddit School of Podcasting

In this episode, we break down Knives Out and why it's one of the smartest mystery movies in recent years. We dig into how Rian Johnson brilliantly subverts the classic whodunnit formula, hides the plot twist in plain sight, and uses structure to shift audience expectations.

Breaking Bad Habits Why are good habits hard to build—and bad ones hard to break? Real change doesn't come from trying harder but thinking differently. In this message, we unpack how repentance means seeing life through the lens of God's truth, not just feeling sorry.  We'll explore how grace transforms us from the inside out, why movement without mindset leads us back to old patterns, and how to break bad habits for good. You can fight battles tomorrow—or win the war today.  Titus 2:11-12 Discussion topics Icebreaker - What's one small habit (good or bad) that you know affects your day more than it should?  Titus 2:11–12 - “For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say ‘No' to ungodliness and worldly passions...” According to this passage, what role does grace play in our ability to change?  How is God's grace different from "trying harder" on our own?  Digging Deeper - How would you define real repentance after today's message?  In what areas of your life have you been trying to modify behavior without changing your thinking? Personal Reflection: Is there a habit you need to break or replace right now?  (You don't have to share specifics unless you're comfortable.)  What's one “cue” (place, time, mood, moment, or people) that triggers that habit?  Which practical step—Remove the Cue, Interrupt the Action, Replace the Routine—would be most helpful for you to focus on this week?  What is one small habit that you can start today?   Check out our other audio series and video playlists that can help you find Jesus in every moment and then discover what's next

Cue up the Thin Lizzy for this Friday episode as "The Boys" return to the SGS feed. With Andy still overseas, Brendan is joined by Joseph LaMagna and PJ Clark for an insane Friday episode full of conspiracies, horse takes, gorilla hypotheticals, and Golf Advice. After a bit of Kentucky Derby chatter, initial takeaways from the CJ Cup Byron Nelson are shared and Joseph proposes a new "Cam Champ Rule" for PGA Tour venues. The three then preview this week's LIV Korea event and discuss the current state of Jon Rahm, David Puig, and Richard Bland, among others. In news, departments within the PGA Tour are shifting a bit and tournament weeks are now "event weeks" for these local communities. Before Golf Advice, "The Boys" get Brendan's thoughts on the latest 100 men vs. one gorilla hypothetical and wonder which pro golfers would be the biggest assets in this kind of fight. Golf Advice has a Champs Tour legend involved and more hole-in-one discourse. To wrap things up, Brendan chats with Joel Beall about his new book, Playing Dirty, which you can buy here.

This week it's part one of Shanna Moakler and he gowns are packed, the mics are hot, and we hit the road for the first time—broadcasting straight from Dallas, Texas with pageant royalty and reality TV icon and Playboy Bunny!. From her Miss USA win to Playboy fame and Big Brother betrayals, Shanna spills the sweet tea and the spicy drama. She takes us back to her roots as an East Coast teen dreaming of Hollywood lights. After earning her Miss Teen USA crown, she nabbed the Miss USA title—thanks to Texas queen Chelsey Smith winning Miss Universe. She then strutted into acting with roles on Pacific Blue alongside Mario Lopez and Carmen Electra, and later stunned on MTV's Meet the Barkers with ex-husband Travis Barker. Playboy Playmate 2001? That's Shanna. She chose the top-selling issue and made history. Hugh Hefner praised her beauty at 19, and now she's back with the Playboy Extreme Team, repping adrenaline-loving Playmates in sports like racing and skydiving. Shanna's blend of glam and grit is redefining the bunny image with latex and motocross included. Get ready Todrick Hall, Carson Kressley and Cynthia Bailey are all get called out as she relives the betrayal that shocked Celebrity Big Brother fans. Despite saving Carson from eviction, he and Cynthia voted her out after Todrick's lies. While Carson and Cynthia later apologized, Todrick? Not a word. “He did me dirty,” Shanna declares. Cue the tension—and the receipts. Now executive director of Miss Nevada USA and Miss Utah USA, Shanna mentors the next wave of fierce queens. She dishes on pageant evolution—no more age caps, marriage bans, or baby stigma. Even 74-year-olds can compete. She's crowned three Miss USA winners and shares love for pageant sisters like Alyssa Campanella, Noelia Voigt and Nia Sanchez, from Bravo TV's, The Valley. plus shout-outs to designer Pol' Atteu for glam gowns worn on national stages. Shanna recently left L.A. for Dallas—and yes, it was for *love*. Reuniting with a man she dated 30 years ago (cue Hallmark vibes), she now embraces cowboy life, stepmom vibes, and cleaner-than-clean Targets. The mystery man? Still under wraps—but he's clearly won her heart. “I'm finally living the life I dreamed of,” she shares. Pol's coffee reading confirms it: her best chapter is unfolding now. Shanna reflects on her outspoken activism against Prop 8 and support for the *NoH8* campaign with photographer Adam Bouska. She reveals why she's producing her own TV projects—to show the world the real Shanna, beyond pageants and tabloids. “People never took me seriously,” she admits. But now? She's rewriting her narrative. Plus, wild Playboy Mansion tales, Dancing with the Stars regrets, and how Anna Nicole Smith inspired her beauty and energy. There's even a shout-out to Jeff Lewis, and a Kardashian warning. From bunny ears to BBQ and reality fame to real love, Shanna's journey is messy, magical, and fiercely her own.

Chancellor Rachel Reeves has been in Washington D.C. this week at the IMF's spring meetings, and will meet US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent tomorrow. Cue the ususal talk of compromising on chlorinated chicken. Not so, reports the Spectator's economics editor Michael Simmons, who explains that Reeves may offer a reduction in long-standing tariffs already imposed on American cars. But, it's been a bad week of economic news for the Chancellor as the IMF downgraded the UK's growth forecast. We're also one week away from the local elections – Starmer's first big test since last year's general election. The economy isn't usually the number one issue at local elections but, as More in Common's Luke Tryl explains, the cost of living crisis is still very much alive in voters' minds. And, while Reform look set to have a good night, the economy is not their strongest policy area. What should we look out for on the night? Michael and Luke join Lucy Dunn to discuss. Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

Norie brings decades of experience from her roles at National Geographic Traveler and as a contributor to National Geographic. She shares fascinating insights into adventure storytelling, the evolving landscape of tourism, and the powerful shift toward regenerative travel. Subject: What a Red Puffy Jacket, a Black Lab, and the Tetons Taught Me About Adventure I discovered the magic of nature—only after realizing my feet were literally black with dirt. - Norie Quitos What Happened: If you told 12-year-old me that one day I'd be preaching the gospel of nature and conservation on a podcast, she would've laughed in your face while clutching her Lisa Frank diary. Back then, I was a hardcore indoors kid. My travel dreams were less “hike the Andes” and more “sip coffee outside a museum in Paris.” Nature? Great in theory. From a safe, clean, bathroom-accessible distance. But life had other plans. Specifically, two kids and a deep desire for them to experience something I hadn't: the outdoors. Our first trip? My sister's backyard. Borrowed tent. Questionable gear. But hey—we survived. That spiraled into state park weekends, and eventually, a full-on wagon adventure at the foot of the Tetons. Cue canvas tents, no showers, and yes—leeches. I was not okay. My soles were blacker than a burnt marshmallow, and I seriously questioned my life choices… until someone said, “It's dirt, but it's not dirty.” Mind. Blown. That moment changed everything. Principle: Adventure doesn't require a plane ticket or a trust fund. It's not always epic views and adrenaline rushes. Sometimes, it's dirt, discomfort, and doing something that stretches you just enough to see the world—and yourself—a little differently. That shift in perspective? That's where the real story begins. It's not just about going places. It's about who you become because you did. Transition: But here's the thing… Most of us still think “adventure” only counts if it looks like a Patagonia ad. We think our stories aren't worth telling unless they involve wild landscapes or bucket list bragging rights. The problem? That belief keeps so many of us from starting. From exploring our own backyards. From seeing travel as a tool for transformation—not just content creation. That's Why: That's why this episode with Nori Quintos hit home. Because it's not just about where you go—it's about how you go. Nori's journey from suburban indoor kid to global storyteller proves that the adventure industry isn't just changing—it's opening up. She shares how regenerative travel is replacing tourism-as-usual, and why women over 50 are redefining what solo travel—and real power—looks like. Call to Action: Feeling stuck thinking your next adventure needs to be “epic” or expensive? That mindset's the real roadblock. Break free with Nori's story—because once you hear it, you'll realize the best journeys don't start with gear… they start with grit.

When Monday hits, Stassi's thriving—the nanny's back, the kids are at school, and she's finally recovering from a weekend of Messer's non-stop toddler energy. She and C-O Lo dive into the pop culture drama: dusty Coachella tents, Kylie & Timmy's hyper-analyzed desert PDA, and why celebs might finally be done with the festival life.
