Dean Lopez and Dax Stokes like many of us knew nothing but hustle and hard work to make money. They still have this mentality but now they're using that hustle and hard work to build their own company instead of someone else's. De-Ax Trailer Sales was founded to solve Dean and Dax's own problems of the need for new equipment but not being able to afford the prices of the brands that were out there. Luckily they thought that other people would want to buy these same quality products at a lower price than the name brands. They were correct. De-Ax prides theirselves in being heavily connected and involved in the farming, ranching, and rodeo industries so they know the issues that everyone deals with and they can build their products to solve those issues. They're also very connected to the community so if you need something custom they can build it or if there's an issue with a product they can solve it for you. Check out this very relatable journey of two entrepreneurs in the agriculture retail world.Diversified Payments:https://www.diversifiedpayments.com/wealthycowboyThe Wealthy Cowboy Mastermind:https://www.skool.com/the-wealthy-cowboy-mastermind-1608/about

The big ideas in these classics help us wrestle with what it means to be a human being through exploring the rich stories of these two monsters. What is a monster, and why should we read these books? Should students in classical schools read them? Join us as we explore these two famous monsters and their authors.Be sure to check out The Vampire Historian podcast with Dax Stokes too!

Are season openers the weakest link in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer chain? Is Rudolf Martin an interesting Prince of Darkness? Are Xander’s days of being everybody’s butt-monkey finally over? Dax Stokes, host of the podcast The Vampire Historian, makes his Conversations debut to discuss these and other very, very important questions. In the Season 5 premiere, “Buffy vs. Dracula,” that poncy bugger turns up to feed Xander bugs and smolder ineffectually as he blathers on about the Slayer’s darkness. In “Real Me,” Buffy’s little sister finally gets an episode of her own, only 79 episodes into the series, and of course she has a crush on Xander. And in “The Replacement,” Anya almost gets to live the dream with two Xanders at once. It’s a big week for the X-Man. Next: Mr. Point Award-winner Stephanie Graves returns to discuss episodes 504, “Out of My Mind” and 505, “No Place Like Home.” THE BREAKDOWN Run Time: 01:47:15 00:00:55 - Intro / Guest 00:11:10 - Main Topic 01:40:29 - Outro / Next THE LIBRARY Library Closed For Filing - Please Come Back Tomorrow THE LINKS The Vampire Historian Podcast THE MUSIC “Conversations (feat.

Multi-Mr. Pointy Award-winning author Mary Ellen Iatropoulos returns to discuss Franken-Forrest, Cabin in the Woods, and Joss’ obsession with concepts of hybridization in 421, “Primeval.” And then Season Four comes to it’s oh-so-welcome end with 422, “Restless,” which features some very unsubtle lesbian metaphors, Spike swinging really high, Mayor Meat, and the debate and confusion around the name of the First Slayer. Oh, and we share our perhaps problematic love of the film Ghostbusters.
