Maura Kolb, President of Dryden Gold Corp (TSX.V: DRY) (OTCQB: DRYGF), joins me for a visual update recapping the key takeaways from the 2025 exploration program; which tripled the size and scale of the mineralized structure along the Elora Shear Zone.   We touch upon all the various work programs that were completed this year at the 3 regional areas:  Gold Rock Camp, Sherridon, and Hyndman across their Dryden Gold District, in Northwestern Ontario, Canada.   We kick things off with a review of some the key targets drilled this season's 15,000 meter program along both the Big Master and Elora Gold trends at the Gold Rock Camp,  incorporating the data sets from the D1, D2, and new understanding of the D3 structural faulting trends.  Maura highlights the drill results from around the Elora-Jubilee Target, Pearl Target, and Laurentian Mine Target, and from recent results at the drilling done into the gap testing the areas between these targets.  We also discuss significance of the broader bulk tonnage mineralization that is then being upgraded by the multiple high-grade intercepts along the hanging wall and foot wall trends.   Next we shifted up to the initial drilling done this year at Mud Lake target area, and how these same 3 geological deformation faults and folds are present here as well, further northeast along the Gold Rock Camp trend.  There are 4 drill holes here awaiting assays to come back from the lab in the near-term.  Maura highlights that there is a periodicity to this larger system along the 20kms of strike length, which demonstrate similar geological properties to the Elora Gold Shear Zone, and they'll be following up to exploration work and targeting on more areas of interest in the year to come.   Pivoting out to the regional targets, we discussed the 3rd area of focus from this year's program at; where 3 drill holes were put in Sherridon is hosted within a large geophysical anomaly with a strike length of five kilometers. Testing to date has focused on a small portion of that trend leaving the Sherridon target open in all directions. Additional drill targets for next year will be designed based on this seasons drill results and geological interpretations from expanded mineral assays, geochemistry and re-logging of historic core.   Wrapping up we discussed the 3rd and 4th areas of focus from this last season from the 3 drill holes at Sherridon, following up on the detailed mapping from 2024, and the channel sampling program at the Hyndman regional area, which targeted existing outcrop exposures.   There is an upcoming WEBINAR on December 4th at 9:30am PST / 11:30am CST where Maura will be going into an expanded discussion recapping the 2025 exploration campaign, and looking ahead to the work for 2026.  Attendees will be able to ask questions live to Maura as part of this free event.   To register for the webinar:  https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Fo66-rxqTO6IwqPscjHImA   If you have any questions for Maura regarding Dryden Gold, then please email them into me at Shad@kereport.com.     In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Dryden Gold at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.       For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/   Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

He talks about parents being told to “step back” once the kid becomes valuable, how predators and scammers flood youth sports, and why the least “talented” kids still deserve the most love and resources.From fake mentors, non-profit scammers, and horny “coaches” chasing single moms… to his own history of checking predators in jail, Sauce pulls the mask off a lot of so-called “for the kids” movements.

College funding strategies parents ignore. If your buyers are asking how to afford tuition and a mortgage, this episode breaks down real-world college savings plans, FAFSA filing tips, and scholarship stacking strategies. Learn how one Texas family used student-athlete recruiting and a 529 savings plan to cut future student loans without derailing their homeownership goals.Episode OverviewCollege funding strategies take center stage in this episode as Mike and his daughter Catey walk through the real-life steps they used to navigate scholarships, FAFSA planning, and long-term college savings. Catey shares her experience as a student-athlete, giving Realtors insight into how athletic recruiting actually works and why academic scholarship planning matters early. The episode explains how a 529 savings plan can reduce future debt and why so many families overlook smaller, local scholarships.Mike also breaks down FAFSA filing tips, plus what every parent should know about tuition planning at private vs. state schools. For Realtors who get asked, “Should we save for college or buy a house first?” this conversation provides practical language for guiding clients through major financial decisions. With real examples and honest lessons learned, this episode equips real estate pros to support families navigating the balance between college costs and homeownership.Key Takeaways1. Start College Funding Early With a 529 PlanA 529 savings plan remains one of the most reliable college funding strategies thanks to tax-free growth and compounding returns. Mike explains how even small monthly contributions add up, and how new 529 rollover rules help students build long-term retirement savings. Realtors can use this insight when clients ask how college planning affects future homebuying power. Early action creates flexibility instead of financial strain.2. Academic Scholarships Are the Biggest Missed OpportunityCatey's story shows how academic scholarship guides and strong GPAs are a major cost-saver—especially at private schools. Many parents don't realize freshman-year grades impact class rank and scholarship offers. When clients ask, “Where do we even start with college money?”, academic merit is often the most impactful answer. These scholarships can offset tuition without relying on athletic recruiting.3. FAFSA Opens Doors—Even for Higher-Income FamiliesFAFSA planning is essential, not optional. Filing early opens access to grants, school-based aid, and student loan options that reduce long-term debt. Mike dispels the myth that "FAFSA won't help higher earners" and explains why every family must submit it. This context helps Realtors answer questions like, “Will student loans limit our ability to buy a home later?”4. Student-Athlete Recruiting Requires Realistic ExpectationsCatey describes her path through D1, D2, D3, NAIA, and JUCO evaluations—and why recruiting requires consistent effort, highlight videos, and campus visits. Athletic scholarships aren't guaranteed, so families need to understand the true landscape. Realtors supporting sports families can help them think through travel costs, schedules, and timelines that influence both college planning and future home decisions.5. Local Scholarships and AI Tools Are the Secret AdvantageMike explains why small local scholarships—often $500 to $2,500—are the easiest money families overlook. Catey highlights how Bold.org, Niche, and AI tools simplify the search and even help refine essays. For Realtors asked, “What else can we do to find college money quickly?”, these tools provide real direction. Small awards add up fast and meaningfully lower...

In this episode, Antonio explores the complex biology of thyroid hormone production, conversion, and regulation—highlighting how deiodinase enzymes modulate hormone activity at the tissue level and why that matters for interpreting lab results. He discusses the shortcomings of relying solely on TSH as a marker of thyroid function, the ongoing debate around combination therapy with T3 and T4 versus standard T4 treatment, and how genetics, tissue sensitivity, and individual variability influence thyroid hormone metabolism. The conversation also examines how hypothyroidism affects energy, mood, cognition, and longevity; why some patients remain symptomatic despite "normal" labs; and how future research could reshape treatment paradigms. We discuss: How the thyroid produces, stores, and activates hormones like T4 and T3 to finely regulate thyroid activity [2:45]; How fasting alters thyroid hormones to conserve energy [12:45]; Action of the deiodinases: how D1, D2, and D3 enzymes control the activation and inactivation of thyroid hormones [19:15]; The normal function of thyroid hormone and the roles of the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and deiodinases in maintaining hormonal balance [23:30]; Why understanding thyroid physiology is essential for proper diagnosis and treatment of hypothyroidism [33:45]; Testing for thyroid hormones: understanding free vs. total levels, the limitations of current T3 assays, best practices, and more [36:00]; Genetic and sex-based variability in thyroid hormone regulation and their limited clinical significance [43:45]; Hyperthyroidism: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options [46:00]; Hypothyroidism: diagnosis and autoimmune causes of hypothyroidism [56:30]; More on hypothyroidism: diagnostic biomarkers, antibody patterns, and non-autoimmune presentations [1:05:00]; Thyroid hormone replacement therapy [1:15:15]; More on thyroid replacement strategies: exploring the evidence gaps, mortality signals, effects on lipids, and more [1:28:00]; Hypothyroidism basics: causes, antibody implications (including pregnancy), and how to make the diagnosis before choosing therapy [1:35:15]; Thyroid medication: compounded controlled-release T3, brand name versus generic, and what Antonio prescribes to newly diagnosed hypothyroid patients [1:42:45]; Redefining treatment success: why normalizing TSH isn't always enough for patients with hypothyroidism [1:54:45]; Case studies: analysis of two unusual cases of thyroid disease [1:57:00]; Dangers of supplementing with high levels of iodine, and female-specific risk of thyroid disease [2:05:45]; Case study of a patient who presents with elevated TSH but no symptoms [2:09:30]; How future research could reshape treatment, and Antonio's new book called "Rethinking Hypothyroidism" [2:13:15]; and More.

From backwash debates and water-bottle slander to championship soccer and college football chaos, this episode is all about sports, kids, and character. Adam, Aaron, and Haron unpack how youth sports can become one of the best classrooms for resilience, humility, and real-world discipleship—if we let them be more than a place to chase highlight reels.Adam shares stories from his son Matthias' back-to-back championship soccer seasons: learning to play defense instead of chasing the spotlight, dealing with the pain of feeling like you “lost” personally even when your team wins, and being pushed to celebrate others even when you're disappointed in yourself. The guys talk about how parents can either fuel entitlement (“my kid has to be the star”) or form character by helping their kids embrace their actual role on the team.They also get into coachability—showing up on time, body language, attitude, receiving correction—and why those traits matter more than raw talent in both sports and life. Adam pulls back the curtain on his time pastoring future NFL players, including a brutal story of a second-string running back who missed a Super Bowl moment because he couldn't be coached. From youth leagues to D1 and the pros, they wrestle with American individualism, money, fame, and how all of it shapes the way we see team, family, church, and calling.If you're a parent, coach, athlete, or just someone trying to raise (or become) a healthy adult in a me-first culture, this conversation will hit home.--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Aaron Levy https://www.instagram.com/_aaronlevy/Haron Kaisa https://www.instagram.com/kaisaclan/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Get Aaron Levy's book, JOHN: 21 Daily Drips of Dialogue: https://a.co/d/7lGB90i--Have a question?

Send us a textA broken back, a fractured knee, and nearly a year off running—then podiums at Pikes Peak Ascent, Kodiak, and Moab. That's the arc Alicia Vargo takes us through, sharing how a brutal dog attack in 2024 unraveled her season and how skate skiing, patience, and stubborn belief stitched it back together. We start with her fresh Moab Trail Half podium and the course's split personality—slickrock step-ups, sandy slogs, and off-road pavement—before moving into the training mindset that keeps her sharp late in the year.From there, we head home to Breckenridge. Alicia talks altitude as the quiet performance lever, the surprising strength of the local community, and why winter skimo and skate skiing are the perfect mix to preserve fitness without the pounding. Then we go deep on her recovery: delayed diagnoses, crutches, months of uncertainty, and the tentative first races at Broken Arrow that proved her body could hold. She opens up about Sierre-Zinal's balcony trail, heat shock, and the crowded chaos of European starts where elbows fly and gels get trampled.We zoom out to the sport's big questions. Should women have separate starts or days? Alicia weighs the trade-offs—clear competition and spotlight versus thin fields and lost atmosphere. She revisits the early Nike Trail years, shifting to Hoka, and why the sport once nudged athletes toward ultras due to a lack of short trail opportunities. Now, with Golden Trail, Broken Arrow, and the Rut, short trail finally looks like the welcoming on-ramp for D1 talent and the most TV-ready version of mountain running.We also talk storytelling. What Coca-Dona got right with long-form livestreams. Why commentators who race—like Dani Moreno—can translate chaos into context. And why Alicia's skeptical about the Olympics reshaping trail into a TV-friendly shadow of itself, much like skimo's shift. Through it all, her message is grounded and energizing: protect the mountain identity, invest in women's race formats, tell better stories, and give athletes the room to come back strong.If this conversation hits, follow and share.

Kenya Jones, Head Coach and Associate Director of Admissions at Brooks School (MA), joins Cory for a straight, practical talk about prep school basketball, player development, and college placement in today's NIL/transfer-portal era. Jones explains why Brooks is “a school that happens to be good at basketball,” and how a culture of multi-sport participation, arts, and academics creates tougher, smarter, more coachable athletes. He details what he really recruits—character, independence, and fit—and how self-driven development (open runs, morning gym, weight room cadence) prepares players for NEPSAC competition and college standards.You'll hear an honest breakdown of Class B vs AA/AAA schedules, why relationships + summer showcases move the needle more than hype, and exactly what it takes to be a Division I guard (athleticism, vocal leadership, 94-feet defense, rebounding from your position, and credible shooting). If you're a parent, player, or coach seeking the right pathway—not promises—this episode gives you a clear lens on admissions, placement timing, and building a life-ready student-athlete.Families starting the prep journey: listen in, take notes, and focus on fit over flash.

Most billionaires disappear after they make their money. Joe Liemandt did exactly that — vanishing for 20 years after building Trilogy into a software empire. Now he's back with a radical mission: transform education for a billion kids using AI. In this episode, the reclusive tech mogul breaks his silence to reveal why he's betting another billion dollars that everything we know about school is wrong. From fifth graders negotiating food truck gross margins to middle schoolers getting paid $1,000 to hit the top 1% academically, Joe's Alpha School is flipping education on its head. Kids learn twice as much in just two hours a day, then spend afternoons launching Broadway musicals, building apps, or training for D1 sports. The results? 96% of students love school more than vacation, and every single class tests in the top 1% nationally. We dive deep into why Joe believes the 100-year-old classroom model is dead, how AI tutors can teach kids 10x faster, and why paying students to learn might be the most controversial — and effective — motivator yet. If you've ever wondered what happens when a data-driven billionaire decides to rebuild education from scratch, or if you're tired of watching kids hate school while the world leaves them behind, this conversation will change how you think about learning forever. ___________ 00:00:00 Introduction 00:01:24 The Forbes List and Raising Kids Without the Billionaire Label 00:02:39 Why Money Matters: Teaching Financial Literacy from Kindergarten 00:06:45 The MBA Myth: Why Business School Won't Make You an Entrepreneur 00:08:01 Alpha School Revolution: Where Kids Learn 2X in 2 Hours 00:08:43 Breaking the 100-Year-Old Education System 00:18:33 The Three Girls Who Proved Math Isn't Gender-Specific 00:20:05 Paying Kids $1,000 to Reach Top 1% 00:26:59 From Broke to Billionaire: The Trilogy Story 00:28:08 The Entrepreneur's Blind Belief That Changes Reality 00:30:58 From Consumer to Creator: Breaking Kids' TikTok Addiction 00:34:01 High Standards Are the Key to Happiness 00:40:02 The Food Truck That Teaches Gross Margins 00:47:05 Motivation Engineering: Time Back as Currency 00:52:49 From Tech Bro to Principal: Joe's Personal Transformation 00:58:58 The Billion Dollar Mission to Transform Global Education 01:08:51 Making Millionaires in High School 01:10:32 AI in Education: The Good, Bad, and Terrifying ___________ MORE FROM BIGDEAL

What if the secret to fitness isn't harder workouts but easier ones? In this episode, a former D1 runner shares why run-walking beats traditional running for staying consistent. You'll discover how to move your body without pressure, pace goals, or judgment. What would happen if you gave yourself permission to be imperfect?

In this episode, I break down one of the biggest mindset traps I see in college baseball recruiting: the “Division 1 or bust” mentality. A lot of players tell me their plan is to go to a Division 2 or Division 3 school for a year, then hit the transfer portal to move up to D1. But in reality, that mindset usually backfires.I share why focusing only on yourself and your end goal often guarantees you won't get there and what kind of mindset actually leads to growth, success, and new opportunities. The players who go on to transfer successfully don't chase D1. They buy in, go all-in on their current program, and play for the love of the game. That's what makes them stand out to coaches at every level.If you're a high school player or a parent helping your son navigate recruiting, this episode will help you reframe your goals and focus on what really matters.Follow Patrick Jones Baseball on X and Instagramhttps://x.com/pjonesbaseballhttps://www.instagram.com/pjonesbaseball/
