Steve Fusco grew up in Connecticut, raised by a single mom and a solid support system—but teenage trouble sent him to military school. In college, experimentation turned into using and selling drugs, a slide into addiction, and multiple arrests. After failing to get clean, Steve was sentenced to 2 years in Connecticut state prison—the wake-up call that changed everything. Inside, he rebuilt from the ground up. Today he's sober, a successful business owner, and on a mission to show what redemption really looks like. #AddictionRecovery #Sobriety #RedemptionStory #PrisonStories #SecondChances #TrueCrime #EntrepreneurLife #connecticut Connect with Steve Fusco: http://Rejoicerestore.com Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Use code LOCKEDIN for 20% OFF Wooooo Energy Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction & Guest Background 02:10 Childhood, Family, and Early Influences 05:52 School Years and Beginning of Trouble 09:08 Military School and College Aspirations 13:13 College Years and Exposure to Drugs 18:14 Path to Addiction & Early Drug Dealing 24:02 Addiction, Career Attempts & Downward Spiral 30:37 Peak Drug Dealing & Double Life 37:15 Cycles of Recovery, Addiction, and Jail 42:08 Rock Bottom: Prison and the Wake-Up Call 46:44 Life Inside Prison and Rebuilding 51:20 Programs, Hope, and New Mindsets 01:00:46 Reentry: Starting Over and Business Journey 01:07:02 Finding Purpose: Relationships and Faith 01:10:53 Servant Leadership & Uplifting Others 01:13:03 Advice, Reflection & Closing Thoughts Learn more about your ad choices.

Buy here, pay here dealership Oak Motors is slowing approval of credit applications as long-term affordability concerns persists and despite increased volume. Anderson, Ind.-based Oak Motors' applications were up 30% year over year at the beginning of September, according to data the dealership group provided to Auto Finance News. The dealership group did not specify the number of applications. The increase comes despite a drop in sales and amid a decline in approvals at the dealership group, which has five locations in Indiana, Executive Board Member Tiger Okeley told AFN. “We've seen about a 20% decrease in sales, and that's by design,” he said, without providing specific sales numbers. Oak Motors focuses on identifying consumers who can commit to long-term deal structures that are beneficial to the consumers and the dealership, he said. While the BHPH dealership sells as many vehicles as it wants to sell, success depends on finding customers capable of keeping up with weekly payments, Okeley said. “If they stop paying us, it didn't matter if we sold them a car,” he said. The bottom line is “we didn't get paid.” BHPH is attractive to customers with risky credit profiles or those who don't have access to traditional financing, Okeley said. Some BHPH dealerships offer customers a chance to rebuild their credit to qualify for traditional financing down the road. In fact, an inaugural survey of 1,015 consumers across the country published by Oak Motors on Aug. 15 revealed that 32% of consumers avoided applying for an auto loan due to concerns about their credit score this year. Hear more about Oak Motor's credit survey results, market trends and the state of the buy here, pay here market in this week's podcast. This episode is sponsored by The Work Number by Equifax.

The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Episode #1135: Friendly Chevy's charging park is pulling in revenue and conquest sales, BYD takes a profit hit in China's price war, and Google's “Nano Banana” might just beat ChatGPT at the AI image game.Show Notes with links:Back in 2021, Friendly Chevrolet's Mark Eddins saw a gap in the EV experience—and filled it. With GM rolling out EV standards, he went all-in on a unique charging park open to all EV brands. Today, EVHQ is paying off in brand loyalty, new customers, and revenue.EVHQ opened March 2023 near downtown Dallas with eight 120-kW fast chargers under a canopy, staffed 24/7.It offers a lounge-style experience: movie room, Corvette Cafe, Wi-Fi, play area, dog park—even roadside charging.All EV brands are welcome; a free membership gets 20% off retail charging, and an app is launching soon.Revenue hit $300K in 2024 and is on pace for $400K this year, with over 10,000 users and 1,200 monthly sessions.EV sales at the store more than doubled in 2025 so far.“I wanted to be one of those guys that had something nobody else had,” Eddins said. “It is beyond my wildest dreams, quite frankly.”Even as BYD pushes aggressively into overseas markets, the Chinese EV giant is taking heat at home. A brutal domestic price war cut deep into profits last quarter, despite record sales and growing international presence.BYD's Q2 net profit dropped 30% year-over-year to $891M, even as revenue rose 14%.The company blames “excessive marketing” and fierce price-cutting across China's EV space.Retail prices in China have fallen 19% over two years, triggering concern from regulators.First-half revenue still jumped 23%, with record new energy vehicle sales.In Europe, BYD's July registrations hit 13,000+—up 225% year-over-year.A new challenger has entered the AI image arena. Google's “Nano Banana” image generator—recently added to Gemini—might just be the first serious rival to ChatGPT's viral image dominance. And it's got some surprising strengths.Nano Banana delivers sharper realism, faster generation, and better character consistency.It keeps visual details intact across prompts, and it's images often look more natural and less AI-generated.Gemini's model also handles real photo uploads better—especially when combining images or changing backgrounds."If you want something that's very quick and gets the job done in the most realistic way possible… Gemini's Nano Banana is the clear winner," wrote one reviewer.0:00 Intro with Kyle Mountsier and Ben Hadley1:03 Announcements1:46 Friendly Chevy's EVHQ Charging Station6:00 BYD Q2 Profit Drops 30%10:04 Google's Nano Banana OutperformsJoin 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/
What does it take to go from waiting tables to writing chart-topping hits for country music's biggest stars? In this compelling conversation, songwriter Blake Pendergrass opens up about his remarkable year since his last appearance on the podcast – a year that's seen him secure 15 cuts on Morgan Wallen's latest album (including his first #1 hit), pen songs for Jelly Roll, Tucker Wetmore, and Post Malone, and have eight singles charting simultaneously on country radio.Behind these impressive statistics lies a deeply human story of perseverance through doubt. Pendergrass shares how after 13 years in Nashville with minimal success, his faith kept him going when logic suggested otherwise. The emotional high point comes when he discusses "The Dealer," a song he wrote entirely by himself during a period of uncertainty. "I wasn't really planning on writing a full song," he reveals, his voice breaking slightly. "I was in a season of feeling defeated... I sat down essentially to prove to myself I can still write songs." That vulnerable moment produced a powerful track that became one of his proudest accomplishments.The conversation delivers fascinating insights into the mechanics of modern country songwriting – from the collaborative process of creating Morgan Wallen's "Just In Case" with multiple established writers to pushing genre boundaries with Tucker Wetmore's "Brunette." Pendergrass explains how writing changes when working with artists at different career stages and how he approaches rooms with multiple strong creative voices. His perspective on balancing artistic exploration with commercial sensibility provides valuable wisdom for creators in any field.Whether you're an aspiring songwriter, a music industry professional, or simply a fan curious about how your favorite songs come together, this episode offers an authentic glimpse into both the craft and the heart behind today's biggest country hits. Listen now to experience the stories behind songs that are shaping the soundtrack of modern country music.

You'll hear Oscar on the pitfalls of auctions, the dangers of sending watches back to manufacturers for servicing, and the challenges of spotting counterfeit pieces. They also explore the dynamics of watch brands like Hublot, Patek Philippe, and Rolex, discussing their market strategies and the impact of limited editions Oscar REVEALS: High-end auctions and vintage watch sales are rife with scams "Frankenstein" watches, which are modified with non-original parts Authorised dealers often require customers to purchase multiple watches or jewellery to qualify for the opportunity to buy highly sought-after models. Brands like Hublot and IWC have faced criticism for overproducing limited editions The importance of brand reputation and how it can impact resale value in the watch market. Authorised dealers may struggle to sell certain models, while grey market prices can be much lower than retail. BEST MOMENTS "The biggest scam in the watch market, I would say, is in auctions. If you don't know what you're doing with vintage watches, you can be scammed for millions." "A Frankenstein watch is when original parts are added to a watch to make it something that it originally wasn't." "I think it's actually suicide to send it back to the brands, especially if you're not really in with them." "Hublot, the fall off needs to be studied because essentially all that went wrong... is they started making limited editions, not even for football teams, but for players who had left the teams." "I believe that Rolex are that for watches. I also believe that they're the best value."
