Read OnlineJesus said to his disciples: “In praying, do not babble like the pagans, who think that they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them. Your Father knows what you need before you ask him. This is how you are to pray: ‘Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name…” Matthew 6:7–9Many pagans of Jesus' time believed they could manipulate divine action by sheer persistence, lengthy incantations, or empty repetition. Jesus contrasts this with true prayer, which is about trust in the Father's providence, not coercion. Christian prayer is not about forcing God's hand but about uniting our hearts to His will.Saint Thomas Aquinas offers profound insight into the Lord's Prayer: “Since prayer is the expression of our desires before God, we should only ask for what we ought to desire. The Lord's Prayer not only contains everything we should desire, but it presents them in the proper order—thus shaping not only our petitions but also our hearts” (Summa Theologiae, II-II, 83.9).According to Saint Thomas, prayer begins with truth entering the mind. Before we can choose and desire what is good, we must first recognize what is truly good in the eyes of God. For that reason, the first three petitions of the Lord's Prayer focus on God's glory—the highest good—rather than our needs:“Hallowed be Thy name” expresses the desire that God's holiness be recognized, honored, and made known both within us and through our witness in the world.“Thy Kingdom come” is a plea for God's reign to be established in our hearts and ultimately in the fulfillment of His Kingdom at the end of time.“Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven” is a petition that our wills be conformed only to God's divine will, seeking to obey Him as the saints and angels do in Heaven.Once truth enters the mind, the will must choose it by grace. At first, we often pray these petitions out of duty, but as grace strengthens the will, we begin to love them. From there, the will's repeated choice to say “Yes” to God's truth allows our desires to be reordered, forming habits—virtues—within us. After seeking God's glory first, we turn to our own needs, acknowledging our total dependence on Him in the light of Eternal Wisdom:“Give us this day our daily bread” expresses our desire for material sustenance and spiritual nourishment through the Eucharist. As our hearts are transformed, we come to hunger not only for earthly provision but for the Bread of Life, Christ Himself.“Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us” is a plea for God's mercy, teaching us that we must extend forgiveness to everyone if we hope to receive it. Over time, grace enables us to desire mercy more than vengeance, forming our hearts in charity.“Lead us not into temptation” asks for God's help in avoiding situations that might lead us to sin. The more we grow in grace, the more we come to despise sin rather than desire it.“Deliver us from evil” is the final and most complete petition—a plea for liberation from ALL evil: sin, satan, and all that separates us from God. Here, desire reaches its highest purification in which the soul longs for final union with God, free from all evil, and attains it through purified desire.Reflect today on this perfect prayer. Meditate on each petition, allowing each word to shape your mind, will, and desire. Pray it slowly and attentively, letting grace enlighten your mind, strengthen your will, and transform your affections. If you pray these words without fully feeling them at first, persevere and allow grace to work within you, leading you to the point that you truly love what you pray so that you desire rightly, trust fully, and love completely.Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Free advice is not always harmless. Sometimes it teaches the market to disrespect your value. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why working for free can destroy your authority, your positioning, and your business. Let's be real… If you keep giving away your best strategies… Over coffee… In casual conversations… Or during “quick favors”… You are not being generous. You are devaluing your knowledge. In this episode, you'll learn: Why people do not value what they do not pay for How free consulting can weaken your premium positioning Why boundaries separate serious clients from tire kickers How charging for your time increases respect, commitment, and authority The truth is simple: Your knowledge came from years of execution. Years of mistakes. Years of pressure. Years of learning what actually works. That is not free. And when someone wants access to your brain, your strategy, or your experience… They need to respect the value behind it. High-level operators do not run free help desks. They set the fee. They protect their time. They filter out unserious prospects. And they deliver massive value to the people who are willing to invest. Stop giving away the blueprint for the price of coffee. Protect your knowledge. Charge your rate. Deliver the goods. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

In episode 367 of The Real Jason Duncan Podcast, most entrepreneurs believe AI is the great differentiator, the tool that will finally give them the edge. Jonathan Aberman spent decades at the center of the technology world watching that belief quietly destroy the one thing businesses actually compete on. Jonathan Aberman is an entrepreneur, investor, and innovation strategist who has helped launch more than 40 technology companies, served as the founding dean of Marymount University's College of Business and Technology, and is the co-founder and CEO of Hupside — the company building the Original Intelligence category. Forbes called him the unsung hero of the effort to bring Amazon HQ2 to Northern Virginia. Named a "Tech Titan" by Washingtonian and recognized among the Washington Business Journal's "Power 100," he has spent over two decades at the intersection of technology, venture capital, and human potential — and what he found there changed everything he thought he knew about AI. Today, Jonathan sits down with Jason for a conversation that most technology executives don't want to have. The lie is one of the most widely accepted beliefs in business right now: AI can solve any problem, handle any task, and whoever deploys it fastest wins. Here's what that belief actually does — it hands your competitive advantage to a tool every one of your competitors is using too. The models create sameness at scale. And sameness is the end of differentiation. This episode dives into: Why 95% of companies that have adopted AI cannot point to a real return, and what the data actually shows The scattergram experiment that proved AI collapses human creativity into three predictable clusters What large language models are architecturally incapable of producing, and why most executives have never been told Why competing on AI efficiency alone is a losing strategy for nearly every business on this show What "Original Intelligence" is and why it may be the most important business metric nobody is tracking How to measure whether a human working with AI is producing something genuinely differentiated, or just expensive slop What AI slop is doing to trust, personal brand, and content credibility, and what to do when you see it Why the correct frame for AI is not OR but AND, and what changes the moment you understand that The one question every leader should be asking that almost nobody is asking right now The lie is that AI is the answer. The truth is that AI gives everyone the same answer. The leaders who figure that out now, and build their strategy around what only humans can produce, are the ones who will still be standing in ten years.

ontext: Exposing the "Buttercup" Church, False Teachers, and the Truth About Biblical LoveEver notice how modern Christianity has fabricated a version of "love" where no one ever gets corrected, disciplined, or told they're out of line?In this video, Coach Shelby sits down—just four weeks out from his shoulder surgery and wearing his protective weight-room strap—to deliver a hard-hitting message on spiritual authority and biblical boundaries. Digging into the scrolls of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd John, Coach tackles how the modern church has grown lazy because we rely too heavily on chapter and verse numbers instead of reading the Bible in its true, raw context.John wasn't writing a generic letter; he was dealing with an aggressive group of false teachers who were splitting the early church by claiming Jesus never actually came in a real "dirt suit." Coach exposes the danger of these ancient doctrines and shows how they've manifested today in a "syrupy sweet" theology that refuses to protect the flock. Just like a good coach has to be tough on his athletes because he loves them, leadership in the body of Christ demands clear correction. We are commanded to guard our pulpits, our small groups, and even our homes from those who reject sound doctrine. It's time to stop letting the world dictate our standards, test the fruit of those who claim to lead, and step up to our spiritual responsibilities.Classroom Highlights:The Post-Surgery Reality: Why Coach is wearing his protective gear in the gym and the aggressive handshake that forced him to keep it on.Lazy Reading Habits: How relying on chapters and verses has caused believers to miss the original flow and intent of the authors.The Dirt-Suit Heresy: Breaking down the specific false teachers John was fighting who denied that Jesus came in a real human body.The Fabricated Love Trap: Why a theology with zero discipline, correction, or pain is a completely false representation of God's heart.Guarding the Teaching Circle: Why pastors, supervisors, and CEOs have an obligation to keep unvetted, fruit-free novices out of leadership roles.Scriptures Studied:2 John 1:10 – If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him.1 Corinthians 5:5 – Deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved.Proverbs 12:1 – Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, but he who hates correction is stupid.#WordTime #CoachShelby #1John #BiblicalContext #TestingTheSpirits #SoundDoctrine #FalseTeachers #ChurchLeadership #ToughLoveChapters0:00 - Intro: Tying 1st, 2nd, and 3rd John Together0:21 - The Lazy Reader Trap: Missing the Original Intent of the Scrolls0:52 - The Flesh-Suit Heresy: Exposing the Ancient Deception1:15 - Once Saved, Always Saved?

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWThe Post Office is supposed to deliver the mail. So why is it suddenly being pulled into election battles?A proposal tied to a Trump directive could put mail in ballots at the center of a fight over voter lists, federal authority, and who gets to decide how elections are handled. Why should that concern every American, regardless of party?Then I shift from politics to sports. At least that's how it starts.A famous sports commentator makes a remark. The President of the United States gets asked about it. Guess what happens next.I look at why every criticism, joke, challenge, or offhand comment seems to require a response from Trump. What does that tell us about leadership, power, and insecurity?Two stories that seem unrelated on the surface. But both raise bigger questions about power, authority, and the growing inability of some people and institutions to stay in their lane.It's another look at a world that feels a little crazier every day.If you've enjoyed the podcast and found it informative, and maybe got a laugh or two, then please contribute to keeping this podcast around. I'm not backed by Corporate media.

Here's the Ep 216 summary, following the SOP, in Richard's voice. You've worked on your vision. You've refined the message, you say it on a call, and people nod. They agree, they tell you it sounds great, and then nothing happens. Nobody moves. That quiet frustration is what today's episode is about, because vision doesn't move people just because it sounds good. It moves people when it's clear, when it's personal, when there's real tension, and when you can prove it. Sounding good is actually the trap. I'll walk you through a five-part framework I call Vision That Moves, and most leaders are missing at least three pieces of it. Episode Breakdown [00:01:25] The Reframe: Vision Is a Dream, Not a Sentence on the Wall The Hebrew root for the word vision is chazon, and it doesn't mean a tidy sentence on a wall. It means a dream, something so big you're almost afraid to say it out loud. When I went back and looked at my own vision statement, I was a little embarrassed, because what I had wasn't a dream. It was a flattened corporate sentence that moved absolutely nobody, including me. I'd sanded it down until it was safe, and safe vision is forgettable vision. The day I rewrote it as an actual dream, people started leaning in. Same leader, same team, completely different pull. [00:02:38] Move 1: Aim at the Right Altitude There are three levels of vision. Me vision, which is what the leader gets. Corporate vision, which is what the company gets. And team vision, which is what the person joining you actually gets. Almost everyone pitches corporate vision, the mission statement and the big logo on the wall, while the recruit sits there politely wondering what's in it for them. Team vision is the only altitude that answers the question they're actually asking. [00:03:17] Move 2: Get Out of the Clouds and Into the Dirt A clouds pitch says our culture is great, our technology is the best, everybody here supports each other. It sounds good and means nothing, because every one of your competitors says the exact same words. A dirt pitch is specific. It names a number, a measurable outcome, a tool out loud. People can't grab onto a cloud. They can grab onto a number. [00:03:57] Move 3: Add Tension A vision with no gap creates no movement. If where they are right now and where you're pointing feel basically the same, there's no reason for anybody to move their feet. So you lovingly name the gap. Here's where you are, here's what's actually possible for you, and here's the quiet cost of staying exactly where you are for three more years. No tension, no motion. That's not pressure, that's clarity. [00:04:28] Move 4: Bring Proof This is the one leaders skip, and it's the most powerful one you've got. The most credible thing you can ever show a recruit isn't a promise, it's a person. I had a leader recently whose biggest producer was closing two or three deals a month before she joined him, and she's doubled that since. That's not a pitch, that's proof of concept living and breathing on his team. Proof dissolves skepticism faster than any slide deck you'll ever build. [00:05:09] Move 5: Transfer the Energy Here's my actual definition of recruiting. It's a transference of energy and passion. Everything that excites you lives in the future, the milestone, the growth, the place you're all going. If you deliver your vision flat, it doesn't matter how good the words on the page are. Nothing transfers. Your genuine energy about the future is the fuel, and without it the best vision ever written just sits there in the room and dies. [00:05:42] Why It Works People don't move toward fog. The brain can't take action on something vague, so when your vision is abstract, the honest human response is a polite nod and zero behavior change. Make it specific and personal and you finally give them something to grab and pull themselves toward. Proof works because skepticism is the default setting for any good producer who's been pitched a hundred times by a hundred leaders who all sounded the same. And energy works because emotion is contagious. That's why two leaders can say the identical words and only one of them moves the room. The words were never the variable. Clarity, tension, proof, and energy were. [00:06:50] Your Small Win Tonight Rewrite your team vision for the year 2035 and start that sentence with the words, our dream is. If the new sentence doesn't make you a little uncomfortable to say out loud, it isn't big enough yet, so push it further. A vision big enough to scare you a little is the only kind that's big enough to pull other people. [00:07:20] Three Bigger Moves This Week Draft a team-level vision that names exactly what a producer who joins you gets out of the next three years, because people commit to what's in it for them. Take one abstract claim in your current pitch and replace it with a real number, a measurable outcome, or a tool you can name out loud. Then pick one person already on your team who has grown since they joined and make their story the proof you tell, which honors the producer you already have and shows every recruit that what you promise around here actually happens. Key Takeaways Vision doesn't move people because it sounds good. It moves them when it's clear, personal, full of real tension, and provable. Sounding good is the trap. Safe vision is forgettable vision. Pitch team vision, what the person joining actually gets, not corporate vision. It's the only altitude that answers what's in it for me. Get out of the clouds and into the dirt. People can't grab a cloud, they can grab a number. No tension, no motion. Name the gap and the quiet cost of staying, and that's clarity, not pressure. The most credible thing you can show a recruit isn't a promise, it's a person who changed. Recruiting is a transference of energy. Deliver your vision flat and nothing transfers, no matter how good the words are.

Yet, drawing on his expertise in international relations and his experience as an English interpreter for senior Chinese leaders (including Deng Xiaoping), Dr. Zhang Weiwei tells a very different story from his homeland, a story that stands in sharp contrast to the historical experience of Western civilization: China.China's historical experience suggests that the large-scale development of a nation can be achieved while remaining deeply rooted in its own cultural spirit. From his account of how Deng Xiaoping set China on a path of transformation through a process of self-correction, to his critique of political paradigms that divide the world into the binary categories of "democracy" and "autocracy," Zhang invites us to consider the successes of alternative models of political and developmental order.There are parts of the world that have progressed, prospered, and come to terms with their own troubled histories without democracy serving as their vessel.Find out more about The China Academy:https://thechinaacademy.org/‪@thinkersforum4149‬

In this episode of the School of Podcasting, Dave Jackson shows you how to stop being “just another podcast” and start becoming someone's favorite show (I love that line from Jay Acunzo).You'll learn how to:Clarify what your podcast is actually about in one sentenceChoose (or tweak) your name and description so they signal your unique angleDeliver on the promise of your premise so listeners trust youUse your own stories, quirks, and background as an unfair advantage no AI can copyWhether you're launching a new show or trying to revive an existing one, this episode will help you stand out in a crowded market.The Four C's of Building a Favorite Show1. You Need a Clear “What Is It?” Line (Clarity)If you can't describe your show in one sentence, your listeners definitely can't.Think of it like a movie logline:“A shark terrorizes a beach town.” → Jaws“A lawyer can't lie for 24 hours.” → Liar LiarIf your answer sounds like “me and my buddy talking about stuff and stuff,” you have a clarity problem.2. Your Name & Description Should Create ContrastIf your show is called something generic like “Thinking Outside the Box,” you're competing with dozens of identical names.Simple test: say your show's name to someone and ask, “What do you think it's about?”If their answer doesn't match your actual content, your name isn't doing its job.Your description should:Say who the show is forSay how it's differentPromise what they get every episode - and then give it to themUse your listeners' own words from reviews/emails to sharpen your description.3. Deliver on the Promise of Your Premise (Consistency)Your title, artwork, and description are a promise. Your content has to deliver.Click‑baity titles and vague descriptions might get a first click, but if the episode doesn't do what it says, you won't get a second one.Examples:Joe Rogan: long-form, open-ended conversations where people actually talk through ideas.Podnews and Podnews Weekly Review: global podcast news with strong host chemistry and a predictable format.4. Your Stories and Style Are Your Uncopyable Advantage (Character)AI can write scripts and headlines—but it doesn't have your bike ride, your great nephew, or your specific regrets and realizations.You have stories, you just need to write them down.5. Use “Homework for Life” to Capture StoriesFrom Matthew Dicks' Storyworthy: at the end of each day, ask:“What happened today that might be a story?”Write down one sentence—just enough to remind you later.Use any note tool (NoteJoy, Apple Notes, Google Keep, voice-to-text, etc.).Over time you build a story library you can draw from to explain concepts and stand out from AI‑generated, story‑less shows.Action Steps From This EpisodeBy the end of this episode, challenge yourself to:Write your one-sentence “What is it?” line.If you can't say it clearly in one breath, cut it down.Ask 2–3 non-podcaster friends:Show them your title, cover art, and description.Ask, “What do you think this show is about?”If their answer doesn't match your intention, revise your name/description.Search your show's name in Google and major podcast apps.Is the name crowded? Already used?Is there a dormant show with the name you want? Consider reaching out and asking to take over/buy the feed.List 5 story moments from the last 30 days.Use “homework for life” style notes.Circle 1–2 you can use in upcoming episodes to explain a lesson.Rewrite your podcast description to:Say who the show is forSay how it's differentPromise what they'll consistently get each time they listenResources MentionedStoryworthy by Matthew Dicks – Book on storytelling and “homework for life.”Notejoy captiring toolResearch LinksPodcasting Morning ShowSave the Cat!: The Last Book on Screenwriting You'll Ever NeedHot Ones' Guests Impressed by Sean Evans' Questions | Vol. 6 - YouTubePacino Arrests Everybody (Samuel L.

Online summits have been a staple list building and authority boosting strategy for over a decade. Not only do summits help hosts grow their audience, a well-run virtual event gives speakers a platform to share their expertise, and create opportunities for attendees to learn from a variety of experts in one place. But lately I've noticed that many summits are experiencing diminishing returns. So, why are so many of them falling flat? In Episode 494 of Amplify Your Success Podcast, I talk about a pattern I've been noticing after participating in hundreds of online events over the last fifteen years. Registrations are shrinking, participation is low, speakers are seeing diminishing returns, and audiences are walking away without a lot of information, but not true transformation. This isn't about online summits being ineffective. In fact, I'm still a big believer in virtual events as a powerful visibility strategy. The challenge is that many events have shifted from creating meaningful transformation to being a transaction. The focus becomes registrations, list growth, and exposure while the deeper opportunity for connection, collaboration, and community gets left behind. In this episode, I explore what's possible for hosts, speakers, and attendees if the model changes as we move into a new era of business built on belonging, relationships, and shared experiences. If you've hosted an online summit, spoken at virtual events, or found yourself signing up for event after event without seeing meaningful results, this conversation will help you look at the role of virtual events differently and identify what creates lasting momentum instead of temporary attention. Key Takeaways: [00:00] Why many online summits generate registrations but fail to create meaningful momentum. [03:59] How the visibility strategies that worked in previous years are beginning to lose effectiveness. [07:17] Why prioritizing more speakers over a better attendee experience often creates overwhelm instead of value. [09:33] The hidden cost of relying on speakers to continuously build event audiences. [10:16] How speaker saturation contributes to declining engagement and weaker event outcomes. [12:56] Why collaboration between speakers is often the missing ingredient in virtual events. [14:29] What declining participation rates reveal about attendee behavior and event fatigue. [15:26] How information overload prevents attendees from fully engaging with event content. [18:25] Why community and belonging are becoming more important than information alone. [20:05] The role connection, interaction, and relationships play in creating transformation. [21:51] How attendees can get more value from events by actively engaging instead of passively consuming. [23:24] Why hosts need to focus on depth, curation, and meaningful experiences over bigger numbers. [25:07] How community-driven experiences create stronger opportunities, collaborations, and long-term growth.   Resources Mentioned in This Episode:   Join me on Substack here to discover what's working now as our industry continues to evolve.

The Brewers rattled off another five wins in seven tries and just missed taking the other two, as well. The bats came alive in Colorado (at least, once the first few innings were out of the way), and yet Jacob Misiorowski somehow became the story again with another incredible showing against the Rockies. The Brewers have gotten to 40 wins faster than any other Brewers team in history, and the top-shelf pitching remains elite, although the rest of the rotation remains in flux. Brewers reporter Todd Rosiak and host JR Radcliffe discuss Miz's rapid evolution, Kyle Harrison against his old team, a bullpen suddenly ravaged with injuries, David Hamilton turning a corner and perhaps assuming the full-time starting shortstop role, and hey, look, a trade! In Three Up Three Down (33:45), they talk Pablo Sanchez, a potentially interesting date on the Luis Rengifo timeline and some caustic comments by Jonathan Lucroy. In Remember When (52:30), JR looks back at a pitcher you maybe never heard of, but he's a Wisconsin native who became a mythic hero with the Milwaukee Braves organization before injuries, and in Todd's Take of Week (55:45), he peeks ahead to an unusual venue for the next Brewers series.Then, JR sits down with Biloxi Shuckers announcer Javik Blake (1:00:00), whose job includes watching the No. 1 prospect in baseball, Jesús Made. Blake talks about the other stars on the Brewers' Class AA team, the strange trend facing pitchers in minor league baseball and more. Apologies for the unusually hollow-sounding audio on JR's end.

As we finish the Lord's Prayer (Next week we end the series with the Doxology of the Lord's Prayer), we look at how Jesus is teaching us to ask God to help us stand strong and not give in to temptation, for God is faithful, and He will rescue us when we call upon Him for help. What does staying focused look like from a Kingdom perspective?

Deliver Me From My Suffering Mark Donaldson Sermon given by Pastor Mark Donaldson on June 7, 2026 at ElmCreek Community Church in Maple Grove, MN. Scripture: Psalm 6

If you sound like everyone else… You will compete like everyone else. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why copying your competitors keeps you trapped in the industry echo chamber. Let's be real… If your marketing looks the same… Your pricing looks the same… Your offer sounds the same… And your client experience feels the same… You are not building a brand. You are becoming a commodity. In this episode, you'll learn: Why industry standards are often just organized mediocrity How copying competitors destroys your unique advantage Why the best ideas usually come from outside your own market How bold innovation helps you stand out, charge more, and dominate The truth is simple: You cannot lead the market by copying the market. If you want to win bigger… You have to think differently. Study other industries. Borrow better systems. Create a client experience your competitors would never think to build. Because originality creates separation. And separation creates pricing power. Most people follow the footprints. Elite operators create a new path. Step out of the echo chamber. Break the standard. Deliver something different. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

How I Made $100,000 in Year One With Less Than 1,000 True FansYou don't need 100K subscribers to build a profitable business. 18 years ago, Scott had less than 1,000 YouTube subscribers. His photography business wasn't famous. But in the first year, he made $100K—and most of it came from a small product launch to his tiny, loyal audience.In this episode, he breaks down the exact story: how a photography course on CD sold $12,500 in 3 days, why subscriber count doesn't matter as much as TRUE FANS, and the formula he's replicated across three different brands to hit 6-figures.If you're feeling stuck because your channel is "too small," this one's for you.IN THIS EPISODE• How the photography business started (in a basement)• The first YouTube video and building an email list• The free e-book that taught him everything about audience building• The Product Launch Formula investment and the launch day results ($12,500 in 3 days)• The second launch 6 weeks later (~$25,000)• Why subscriber count doesn't matter as much as true fan count• How he applied the same formula to Amazing Seller (7-figure brand)• How he applied it again to Live Video School with his son Scotty (6-figures in year one)• The difference between true fans and subscribers• Why this podcast exists (it's not about reach—it's about connection)• The 3-step formula he teaches in the free workshop• Proof: one listener never paid, but built a 7-figure business anywayKEY TAKEAWAYS:• You don't need viral videos or massive audiences. You need TRUE FANS (people who engage with everything, share your work, and pay with their attention)• The formula: Show up consistently → Deliver value with no strings attached → Build know, like, and trust → The sales come naturally• People don't pay for information. They pay for SPEED, ORGANIZATION, and DIRECT FEEDBACK• In 2025 (the age of AI), authenticity and real human connection are rarer—and more valuable—than ever• The 3-step formula that's worked across three brands: Strong titles + Scroll-stopping thumbnails + Powerful intros that hold retentionWant to learn the full 3-step formula?Join the free workshop every Thursday:

The guys react to recent comments from Jeff Hafley about Chop Robinson and discuss the expectations facing the young pass rusher entering a pivotal season for his development. While both agree Robinson has plenty of talent and upside, they emphasize that potential alone isn't enough and that it's time for him to consistently produce on the field. The conversation also focuses on players like Austin Jackson and JuJu Brents, who have shown they can be valuable contributors when healthy but have struggled to stay on the field throughout their careers. Plus, Joe and Dave examine who will emerge as the Dolphins' leaders this season, including the belief that De'Von Achane's can lead more through his performance and work ethic than by being a vocal, "rah-rah" presence in the locker room.

26 years ago, before the election of George W. Bush in 2000, I wrote, produced and starred in a show about the history of the campaign song, called "Muckrakers," with the fabulous Linda Kerns.  Given that this bicentennial election season is heating up, I thought it'd be fun to revisit some songs from elections past…Let's look at one from 1856...Some background: in 1854 was “Bleeding Kansas” - a bitter dispute between pro and anti-slavery forces over that territory, which led to the break up of the two major parties and the formation of a new one — THE REPUBLICANS — who vowed to oppose any further extension of slavery. But, THE DEMOCRATIC WINNER OF THE 1856 ELECTION WAS….?Many people consider him the WORST president we've ever had (until now) - because he might have prevented the Civil War, and he blew it. I'll give you a hint: he was a bachelor - girl he was engaged to as a youth committed suicide. One eye was nearsighted, the other far - so he held his head a a funny angle….Got it? He was the quote: “most available, and most unobjectionable JAMES BUCHANAN, former Secretary of State to Polk, who once called him “an able man,” but added that, “he sometimes acts like an old maid.”Nevertheless, Bucky won big! Carried every Southern state, except Maryland and six free states - proving that the majority still put the preservation of the Union above all else. And, that is exactly what Stephen Foster's WHITE HOUSE CHAIR urged the voters to do.
