Chicago Marathon season is here, and Mike is the only one of us actually running it. So naturally, we have a lot to say.This week, Mike takes us inside his peak marathon training before we get into the chaos surrounding Chicago's stormy 20-mile weekend, and whether running through bad conditions is really something worth bragging about.Then things take a turn.We catch up on the latest chapter in the Camille Herron saga, try to make sense of one very messy HYROX finish, talk wearables, the Chicago Marathon course change, and ask why marathon merch can't just be better.We close things out looking back at some of our favorite Chicago Marathon memories and how Mile 23 went from the “dead zone” of the course to one of the most special places in Chicago running.Brands come and go. Mile 23 remains.Find us on IG Courtney - @courtneynphillipsIan - @acoolthoughtMike - @mikeb_runninIntro by producer Dini - @dinibeats

Running is booming… but when did it start getting this weird?Courtney, Ian and Mike are back for another week of miles, laughs and conversations that somehow go way deeper than expected.Ian gets real about being afraid to start running again and what it feels like returning to the sport older, heavier and nowhere near the fitness level you remember. That leads to a bigger conversation about starting over, taking the pressure off and figuring out what running looks like in a new season of life.Then things get interesting.Would you use a Strava heat map to decide where to live? What happens when running data starts telling a bigger story about neighborhoods, access and community? And apparently we're claiming territory with our runs now?!The crew also gets into the running boom, ridiculous world records, the evolution of fueling and training, wearables, longevity culture and one big question: how much faster can humans actually get?A little running. A little culture. A lot of side quests.Welcome back to The Runner's Club Podcast.Find us on IG Courtney - @courtneynphillipsIan - @acoolthoughtMike - @mikeb_runninIntro by producer Dini - @dinibeats

Welcome to the Sunday Worship service recorded on September 20, 2026, hosted by Erik, Dini, and Jiska. This joyful session explores the profound theme of "Celebrating the Collapse of Time Through the Miracle". Drawing inspiration from A Course in Miracles and the quantum time-bending movie David showed Saturday, the gathering highlights how choosing forgiveness and listening to the Holy Spirit literally collapses time and brings the entire universe closer to perfect peace. Throughout the service, the presenters share personal stories of shifting out of fear and victimhood—from navigating physical pain to facing high-stakes immigration interviews—by completely trusting in the present moment and releasing attachments to future outcomes.The group also reflects on the importance of remembering that God's name is simply "I AM," and that any thought attempting to explain cause and effect in the physical world is a lie. Woven together with uplifting original music, including the songs "Only This Moment," "How Long," and the upbeat closing track "Liar," this gathering is a lighthearted and powerful invitation to put away the ego's painful toys and embrace the immediate joy of the miracle.Listen to all our Sunday Worship Episodes:https://livingchurchministries.org/media/series/c954zqh/lcm-worship-servicesRecorded Live at La Casa de Milagros, August 30, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

“Fourteen years of conversations. The people who made my journey matter.”In this special 14-Year Celebration episode of Vigilantes Radio Live, Dini sits down with Jr. Boy Muttaqun for a conversation about independent music, life on the road, friendship, ownership, longevity, and what it means to keep building when the journey stretches across decades.Originally from Emporia, Virginia, and now representing San Antonio, Texas, Jr. Boy is a rapper, producer, music entrepreneur, and founder of YaBoy Records, an independent label he established in 1993. More than thirty years later, he continues creating music and building his legacy on his own terms.Dini and Jr. Boy also reflect on meeting while traveling with Bizzy Bone, the realities of tour life, the responsibilities that come with helping keep an artist and crew moving from city to city, and the unpredictable experiences that can turn road acquaintances into real friendships—including one unforgettable stay at a rough Oklahoma City motel.The conversation goes deeper into what independence meant before streaming and social media, the importance of ownership, how the music industry has changed, the sacrifices required for longevity, and what keeps someone committed to a vision more than three decades after it began.This episode is about more than music. It is about the long road, the people you meet along the way, and the determination to keep moving forward.Jr.Boy Muttaqun on all platforms.

“Fourteen years of conversations. The people who made my journey matter.”In this special 14-Year Celebration episode of Vigilantes Radio Live, Dini sits down with Sharp for a conversation about reinvention, authenticity, accountability, purpose, and using lived experience to help shape the next generation.Sharp's journey has taken him through conflict, adversity, entertainment, podcasting, production, and motivational speaking, ultimately building a platform around turning hardship into influence and showing people that their past does not have to determine their future.The conversation explores the difference between being raw and being performative, what authenticity really looks like in media, how the internet shapes young people, and why attention should never be confused with respect. Sharp also opens up about responsibility, growth, the lessons he had to learn the hard way, and what it means to use your voice to keep younger people from repeating the same mistakes.Dini also shares how Sharp's unfiltered communication style influenced the way he thought about connecting with his own audience, making this more than an interview about media. It is a conversation about transformation, influence, and what happens when survival becomes something useful to somebody else.This episode is about rewriting the story, owning the lessons, and turning game into guidance.Insta: @tha_sharp_oneBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2026Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com

New Mexico state Rep. Andrea Romero, the Democratic chair of the state's Epstein Survivors Truth Commission, is facing growing calls to step aside amid an ethics controversy involving her outside employment and the commission's own resources. Republican lawmakers questioned whether Romero violated state law by simultaneously serving in the Legislature and holding a paid part-time position with the First Judicial District Attorney's Office. Romero said she had relied on a 2024 attorney general's opinion when accepting the job, but Attorney General Raúl Torrez later said that opinion had been interpreted more broadly than intended and advised district attorneys not to employ sitting lawmakers. Romero subsequently resigned from the prosecutor's office, but then accused Torrez of trying to disrupt the Epstein commission's work, escalating an already bitter dispute between two officials who have both positioned themselves as pursuing accountability in the Epstein case.The controversy intensified after Romero's defense of herself was distributed through Dini von Mueffling Communications, a New York public-relations firm under contract with the Epstein commission for as much as $60,000. New Mexico Senate Minority Leader Bill Sharer accused Romero of using a taxpayer-funded contractor hired for the Epstein investigation to manage her personal political crisis, calling it potential self-dealing and asking the State Ethics Commission to investigate. Sharer went further and called on Romero to resign both from the Epstein commission and from the Legislature. The episode is particularly damaging for a commission built around exposing institutional failures, conflicts and abuses of power surrounding Jeffrey Epstein, because its chair is now being forced to answer questions about her own judgment, outside employment and use of commission resources. Romero and the public-relations firm did not respond to requests for comment in the reporting, while the controversy has added another layer of political turmoil to an investigation that was supposed to be focused squarely on what happened at Epstein's Zorro Ranch and who failed to stop it.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Calls grow for state lawmaker to resign from Epstein commission amid ethics controversy - KOB 4Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
Welcome to the Sunday Worship service recorded on September 6, 2026. Hosted by Dini and Rafael, this heartfelt session explores the theme of "True Charity - Laughing Our Way into Timeless Union".The gathering invites listeners to sink into God's presence, remember the power of their own decisions, and embrace the joy of extending true empathy to one another. Throughout the service, Rafael shares a profound dream about receiving wordless communication and true vision from Frances Xu, illustrating the power of seeing past our ego's darkness into the light and strength of Christ. Dini reflects on the importance of stepping out of her comfort zone—even participating as a game show host in a spontaneous community skit—to allow the Holy Spirit's boldness to flow.Woven together with readings from A Course in Miracles and uplifting songs like "God," "Back on the Train," "Reminds Me of You," and "In Dreams," this session is a beautiful reminder that our true function is simply to be happy.

“Fourteen years of conversations. The people who made my journey matter.” In this special 14-Year Celebration episode of Vigilantes Radio Live, Dini reconnects with longtime friend and Mississippi DJ veteran DJ 2TALL—“Da 6'8” Wonder”—for a conversation about music, longevity, friendship, Mississippi hip-hop history, and more than two decades of staying committed to the culture.Their connection goes back to 2005, when Dini was performing as Whodini Blak with the rap crew Cash on Demand alongside Young Mighty, Lil Chucky Da Cequel, Cristylez, and the late Maddog Blo' the Smoke. DJ 2TALL quickly became the crew's first “unofficial official DJ,” helping soundtrack an era filled with competitions, performances, travel, and the ambition of young artists trying to make their mark throughout central Mississippi.DJ 2TALL reflects on beginning his DJ journey at just 14 years old, building respected club and casino residencies, hosting independent mixtapes, working around major artists, touring as a DJ and road manager, and watching the role of the DJ evolve from the mixtape and club era into today's streaming and social-media landscape. The conversation also revisits the early Jackson music scene, the importance of DJs to independent artists, the connections and personalities that shaped their journey, and what it feels like to look back more than 20 years later at the people, places, and experiences that became part of their shared history. This episode is about more than spinning records. It is about staying relevant, reading people, taking the scenic route through the music business, and realizing that sometimes the people present during your beginning become part of your legacy long before you understand why.Connect with DJ 2TALL:Instagram: @68wonder_dj2tallX: @68WonderDJ2TallFacebook: DJ 2TALL / Dasixeight WonderWebsite: 68wonderdj2tall.comBooking: 68Wonder@gmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2026Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com
“Fourteen years of conversations. The people who made my journey matter.”In this special 14-Year Celebration episode of Vigilantes Radio Live, Dini sits down with Jackson, Mississippi powerhouse Brad “Kamikaze” Franklin for a conversation more than two decades in the making.Kamikaze is a hip-hop artist, entrepreneur, activist, writer, motivational speaker, digital creator, and cultural strategist whose influence stretches across Mississippi music, media, branding, artist development, and community building. Known as one-half of the acclaimed Mississippi hip-hop duo Crooked Lettaz alongside David Banner, he has continued building his own legacy through Ourglass Media Group, Jackson Indie Music Week, the Juneteenth on Farish Festival, his commentary on culture and current events, and his return to music with Black Mississippi Genius: Part 1.For Dini, however, this conversation is deeply personal. Their paths first crossed in 2002 through the late rapper King J-Skillz, when a young Dini joined Kamikaze's street team while attending Hinds Community College in Utica. At the time, getting Kaze's attention felt like a dream opportunity. Over the years their paths continued crossing through performances, community events, Dear Silas, Synergy Link discussions, and Mississippi's evolving creative scene—yet the one-on-one working relationship Dini once hoped for never quite materialized.More than 20 years later, they finally sit down to discuss the bigger story: Crooked Lettaz, recognition, Mississippi hip-hop history, building infrastructure for creatives, developing artists, fighting for cultural ownership, longevity, criticism, missed opportunities, and what it means to remain committed to a place that does not always give its creators their flowers in real time.This episode is about more than music. It is about influence, timing, cultural responsibility, and realizing that sometimes someone can help shape your journey without ever knowing how closely you were watching.Connect with Brad “Kamikaze” Franklin:Instagram: @mrfranklin601X: @Kamikaze601Ourglass Media: @ourglassmediaJackson Indie Music Week: jxnindiemusic.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2026Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com
“Fourteen years of conversations. The people who made my journey matter.”In this special 14-Year Celebration episode of Vigilantes Radio Live, Dini sits down with longtime professional colleague Maria Del Hoyo for a conversation about artist development, talent management, branding, creativity, identity, and what it takes to turn potential into something sustainable.Maria's career has moved across multiple sides of the entertainment industry, including executive leadership, A&R, talent management, project management, creative strategy, writing, videography, modeling, and brand development. Her work has centered on recognizing emerging talent, helping artists understand both the creative and business sides of their careers, and developing the strategy necessary to transform talent into a marketable brand.But this conversation goes deeper than résumés and clients. Maria and Dini explore the psychology behind artist development, the difference between confidence and entitlement, why work ethic can matter as much as raw talent, and what happens when someone spends so much time helping other people build their dreams that they have to ask what they are building for themselves.Maria also reflects on her years in fashion and modeling, including her experience with Models & The City, where she is credited as a cast member. The discussion examines image, authenticity, women in leadership, professional trust, creative control, and how being both in front of and behind the camera changes the way you understand entertainment.Dini and Maria also look back at their years of professional connection and discuss what makes industry relationships last when so many are transactional.This episode is ultimately about seeing potential—in artists, in businesses, in ideas, and eventually in yourself.Connect with Maria Del Hoyo:Instagram: @marleymaddWatch Models & The City on TubiIMDb: Models & The City CharlotteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2026Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com

“Fourteen years of conversations. The people who made my journey matter.”In this special 14-Year Celebration episode of Vigilantes Radio Live, Dini sits down with his brother, close collaborator, and fellow visionary Kenley “Pastor K-ICE” LaFrance for a deeply personal conversation about faith, fatherhood, brotherhood, advocacy, grief, purpose, and what it means to keep answering the call when life changes the plan. Pastor K-ICE reflects on living with Sickle Cell Disease and transforming his own experiences with pain, hospital visits, faith, and perseverance into advocacy for others. He discusses traveling to Tallahassee alongside fellow Sickle Cell Warriors and advocates, receiving the Warrior Inspiration Award, and using his voice to push for greater understanding and better treatment of those living with the disease. The conversation also explores his growing acting journey through Watch & Pray, his spiritual teachings through the 3rd Light Warrior Mission, and the evolution of the Family Man Movement alongside Dini. The two brothers also reflect on their years together through The 3 Amigos Podcast, PodzQuad, 7th Sign Reb7rth, and the devastating loss of their brother Gabriel “Poegosi” Cota—whose passing brought an end to one chapter while forcing them to consider what they were being called to build next. More than a conversation about accomplishments, this episode asks who Pastor K-ICE has become through everything he has survived. It is a story about chosen family, carrying purpose through pain, becoming a stronger father and man of faith, and turning the lessons of yesterday into light for somebody else tomorrow.Connect with Pastor K-ICE:Instagram: @officialpastorkiceTikTok: @officialpastorkiceX: @realpastorkiceFacebook: Pastor K-ICEBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2026Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com
“Fourteen years of conversations. The people who made my journey matter.” In this special 14-Year Celebration episode of Vigilantes Radio Live, Dini sits down with his older sister, Alicia Sjonté Dampier, also known as Chyna, for a deeply personal conversation about faith, fear, entrepreneurship, family, and the courage to begin again.Alicia shares her journey as a wife, mother of two daughters, entrepreneur, owner of Chyna Printz, and founder of the Lady CEO League Association. She opens up about the realities of starting businesses, stopping, procrastinating, rebuilding, and learning how to keep moving even when fear is present.The conversation explores what it means to “do it afraid,” how faith guides her decisions, the difference between being busy and building something profitable, and why so many women allow fear, perfectionism, or self-doubt to delay the businesses and dreams they know they are capable of pursuing.Dini and Alicia also reflect on growing up as brother and sister, how adulthood has changed their understanding of family, what motherhood has taught Alicia about strength, and the legacy she hopes to leave for her daughters.This episode is about more than entrepreneurship. It is about becoming the woman you were called to be before you feel completely ready.Facebook: Lady CEO League Association IG: Lady CEO League Association TikTok: Lady CEO League Association Facebook: Chyna Printz IG: Chyna Printz TikTok: Chyna Printz www.chynaprintz.comLady CEO League Association is getting ready to launch open membership.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2025Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com or vradio@onlyonemediagroup.com
“Fourteen years of conversations. The people who made my journey matter.”In this special 14-Year Celebration episode of Vigilantes Radio Live, Dini sits down with his longtime 7th Sign brother, Skin-n-Bone$ aka Don Deali'On Lion Baretti, for a conversation about brotherhood, loyalty, underground hip-hop, artistic integrity, and the history that helped shape them both.Dini and Skin-n-Bone$ reflect on meeting during the early 2010s through the 7th Sign Regime created by Bizzy Bone, the role brotherhood played in Dini's evolution from newcomer to leadership, and what it means to remain connected to a movement through changing seasons of life and music.Skin-n-Bone$ also breaks down the craftsmanship behind his sound—from complex vocal layering and melodic arrangements to his obsession with audio engineering, heavy low end, and creating records built to come alive through real sound systems. The conversation explores why he chose the independent underground over chasing mainstream trends, what recognition means to an artist who values authenticity over popularity, and how to preserve musical lineage without becoming trapped by nostalgia.Beyond the music, the two brothers discuss loyalty, identity, leadership, spirituality, longevity, and what nearly fifteen years of shared history has taught them about becoming different men without forgetting where they came from.This is more than an artist interview. It is a conversation between two members of a brotherhood looking back at the culture, people, music, and experiences that helped shape their journey.https://youtube.com/shorts/-FfjLcjhP8U?si=Nkwk9jTrF77hKRTfhttps://www.facebook.com/1nessmusiclableshttps://soundcloud.com/user-497880162/i-gotah-g-o-baby-produced?si=f223e4b7ea7840499703b33a87567b92&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharinghttps://soundcloud.com/user-497880162/pop-lock-n-drop-itd-digital-45?si=fe4c4da3f9894d46a3e1f76d149a561d&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharinghttps://soundcloud.com/user-497880162/sip-the-mytrx-part-1-produced?si=8b02c57bd491401c8b013f4cfeb2c1d3&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharinghttps://soundcloud.com/user-497880162/sets/o-g-drip-g-h-o-s-t-unk-317-of?si=cd0f1e50a83e4cb28443d8fd7eee929f&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharingBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2025Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com or vradio@onlyonemediagroup.com
Fourteen years of conversations. The people who made my journey matter.In this special 14-Year Celebration episode of Vigilantes Radio Live, Dini sits down with his younger brother, Ben “Swift” Reynolds, for a conversation rooted in brotherhood, faith, family, purpose, and becoming the man life requires you to be.Ben opens up about his journey as a husband, father, entrepreneur, children's pastor, health and fitness coach, sports media personality, and gamer. The conversation explores what it means to grow beyond being someone's “little brother,” how marriage and fatherhood reshape manhood, the role faith plays in everyday decisions, and how to balance multiple passions without losing sight of purpose.Ben also discusses the growth of Voice of the Fans Sportscast, sports betting culture, making money through content creation and livestreaming, and his vision for bringing a sports store and gym to life.More than a career conversation, this episode is a personal look at two brothers reflecting on who they were, who they've become, and what they hope the next 14 years will look like.Links:IG: swiftthecapn, vofsportscast, Dacapndini, vofxsaintsTikTok: Vofsportscast Facebook: Vofsportscast YouTube: Vofsportscast Twitch: Vofsportscast Twitch: Dacapndini Assist: voiceofthefansMerch Store: https://vofsportscast.printify.me/products?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bioBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/vigilantes-radio-live--2166168/support.Vigilantes Radio Live! by The Only One Media Group ℗©2025Episode Credits:Produced, edited, mixed, and written by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Artwork designed by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Show Introduction by KateSegment jingles composed & produced by Demetrius "Whodini Blak" Reynolds, Sr.Additional music licensed through 7th Sign RecordingsLinks:onlyonemediagroup.comhttps://www.instagram.com/vigilantesradio/https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-vigilantes-radio-live-29999229/https://www.instagram.com/whodiniblakin3d/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26009230/To support our show, please leave reviews, ratings, or you can help fuel the passion over at buymeacoffee.com/vigilantesradioEmail us at onlyonemgt@gmail.com or vradio@onlyonemediagroup.com

Welcome to this Sunday Worship service recorded on August 23, 2026, from La Casa de Milagros.This peaceful and intimate session dives into the theme of "Transcending Time, Space, and Private Thoughts." The community explores what it means to unwind the mind from the world and step fully into the present moment by trusting the guidance of the Holy Spirit.Presenters Peter, Dini, and Helena, along with other community members, share heartfelt reflections on loosening their attachments to the timeline, healing through joining in shared purpose, and releasing personal agendas. The service draws inspiration from recent community gatherings, lessons from A Course in Miracles, and even the profound relationships depicted in Star Trek.Through vulnerability and prayer, the group discusses how guidance—even when it doesn't make logical sense—is ultimately a call to present-moment joy and deeper intimacy with the Spirit and each other.The gathering is beautifully supported by several musical offerings. The community joins together in singing Rich Mullins' "Step by Step," emphasizing taking everything one step at a time with the Spirit. Other deeply moving songs shared during the service include "We Are One," "Nothing is Impossible," "On the Verge of a Miracle," and "Never Bound," ending on a joyful note with "Follow Joy."Listen to all our Sunday Worship Episodes:https://livingchurchministries.org/media/series/c954zqh/lcm-worship-servicesRecorded Live at La Casa de Milagros, August 16, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem
This episode is a recording of the Sunday Worship Session from August 16, presented by Peter, Dini, Jiska, and Helena. The gathering deeply explores the weekend's essential theme: "I can't go home without you, timeless union". The session focuses on the profound realization that setting a unified goal and resting in constant gratitude transforms our perception of the world. Through shared reflections, readings on forgiveness from A Course in Miracles, and contemplative songs like "God is My Life," the service emphasizes the importance of joining together in love and recognizing that we are never truly separate or alone.Listen to all our Sunday Worship Episodes:https://livingchurchministries.org/media/series/c954zqh/lcm-worship-servicesRecorded Live at La Casa de Milagros, August 16, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

Running is getting expensive, the group chat is making its way onto the mic, and apparently the dishes can wait.This week, Courtney, Ian, and Mike catch up on training, race plans, balancing fitness with real life, and the ever-growing cost of being a runner. From there, the conversation gets deeper as we talk about safety, accountability, and the responsibility run clubs have to create spaces where people actually feel welcome and protected.We also get into whether your favorite running shoes really matter as much as you think they do, respond to a listener Pace Check, and as usual, find plenty of ways to get completely off track along the way.Running, community, life, and a little mess.

Welcome to this beautiful Sunday Worship service recorded live on August 9, 2026, from the halo room at La Casa de Milagros. In this heartfelt gathering, presenters Dini, Jiska, and Erik dive deeply into the theme "Before the fall I am," an exploration inspired by the movie Before I Fall.Together, they discuss practical ways to experience the "I am" presence that exists prior to the illusion of separation. Throughout the session, the community explores the radical power of true empathy, illustrating how releasing our personal agendas to "fix" others allows for deep, spontaneous healing and shared happiness.Drawing upon lessons from A Course in Miracles and biblical passages, the presenters remind listeners of their divine authority to command inner peace and stillness. This uplifting gathering is beautifully woven together with profound musical offerings, including songs like "I know the light in you," "You Save Me Now," "Heaven is Perfect," and a joyful rendition of George Harrison's "My Sweet Lord," with the lyrics lovingly tweaked to "it takes no time, my Lord" to celebrate the immediacy of the present moment.

Join the Millionaire University AI Mastermind at MillionaireUniversity.com/AI #1035 When entrepreneurship doesn't go as planned, what happens next? In this candid follow-up conversation, Dini McCullough Amozurrutia returns to Millionaire University to share the honest story behind the closing of Dini's Divine Pies. After leaving a career as an attorney to pursue her pie business full-time, Dini built a loyal following, catered high-profile events (including a wedding at the British Embassy), and explored wholesale opportunities with retailers like Whole Foods — but ultimately had to make the difficult decision to shut down as rising costs, shifting consumer spending, and economic headwinds took their toll. Dini opens up about the grief of letting go, why she refuses to call the experience a failure, and how the lessons she learned are already shaping her next chapter: a return to legal practice, a cross-country move to Los Angeles, and early-stage ideas for a podcast and book rooted in storytelling and community. This episode is a must-listen for any entrepreneur navigating a pivot, a setback, or the hard decision to close a business — and a reminder that resilience often looks less like pushing through and more like knowing when to be honest with yourself! What we discuss with Dini: + Leaving law for pie business + Early success and growing buzz + Economic headwinds hit hard + Rising costs, shrinking margins + Cutting staff, doing it all + Exploring wholesale and pivots + Avoiding the sunk cost fallacy + Grieving the business's closure + Not viewing it as failure + Next chapter: law, LA, storytelling Thank you, Dini!

El BDSM lleva décadas perfeccionando algo revolucionario:hablar antes de actuar. En este episodio discutimos patologización, moralismos y pánicos sexuales, pero también negociación, comunidad y placer. Exploramos la tensión entre la homonorma de los gays "correctos" integrados al sistema, y un universo queer de personas políticamente radicales, kinky, degénero fluído y poliamorosas. Y nos preguntamos: ¿y si el BDSM no fuera el problema? Hablamos de todo esto con Diego Gervasini Dini y además recorremos las películas Cruising (1980), Pillion (2026) y Mineshaft: The Cruising Murders (2026).Diego Gervasini Dini https://www.instagram.com/diegowgd/ ESCUCHALO GRATIS Y SIN REGISTRARTESpotiIvooxYoutube https://bit.ly/4oiTOms También hablamos de:Uruguay fetish https://www.instagram.com/comunidad_uf/Séxtasis https://www.instagram.com/expo.sextasis/Maricas Bolivia https://www.instagram.com/maricas_bolivia/Darío Pérez https://www.instagram.com/perez2865/Faggotocracyhttps://www.lulu.com/shop/james-laidler/faggotocracy/ebook/product-jew75ek.html?page=1&pageSize=4Maricas Bolivia https://www.instagram.com/maricas_bolivia/Podés ver Cruising completa con subtítulos en castellano acá: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-g-0DArlkwPillion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLIQM9_E8i4Mineshaft, the cruising murders https://deadline.com/2026/06/mineshaft-the-cruising-murders-clip-premiere-1236938398/También te recomendamos BDSM sudaca: Un año sin amor, la novela https://blatt-rios.com.ar/libros/un-ano-sin-amor-pablo-perez/ y la peli https://m.ok.ru/video/9640853900018 Teología anarcoqueer y BDSM boliviano www.bit.ly/4MYtube¿Cuándo salir del armario BDSM? https://bit.ly/4nlLkd1Un podcast de Putoelquelee https://www.instagram.com/censurado108/Conduce: Omar Berettahttps://www.instagram.com/yacarevolador/ Producción y co-conducción: Miguel Buendía https://www.instagram.com/miguel.dai/ Washington Atencio https://www.instagram.com/was_atencio/Clara Ferguson https://www.instagram.com/cla.rl.aAnush Grati https://www.instagram.com/auchygBelén Rofrano https://www.instagram.com/rofran0 Ramiro Garzaniti https://www.instagram.com/ra_mi_ro_g Cortina de inicio: Zona Roja de Mnesis https://www.instagram.com/mnesis Diseño gráfico: David Pedrozo https://www.instagram.com/dv.pedrozo

Kafa Kafaya'nın yeni bölümüde Yaşar ve Vahit, Kurtuluş Cengiz'in ''Yav İşte Fabrikalaşak'' kitabını okuyup değerlendiriyor. 2013 yılında yayımlanış kitap 2008-9 yılında yapılmış saha çalışmasına dayanıyor. Aslen kendisi de Kayseri-Hacılarlı olan Cengiz, o dönem Türkiye'nin en müreffeh ve sanayi kapasitesi yüksek ilçelerinden biri olan Hacılar'ın kapitalistleşme ve sanayileşme hikayesine odaklanıyor.2009 yılında Kayseri'deki toplam ekonomik üretiminin %60'ını, ihracatın %50'sini ve istihdamın %10'undan fazlasını yapan Hacılar'ın öyküsü, Türkiye'nin ekonomik tarihiyle de kesişiyor. Hacılar'ın bu başarısı aynı zamanda birçok başka rapora ve kitaba konu oluyor. 'Kalvinist Müslümanlar' adı altında çıkan bir rapor bu başarıyı İslam'ın Protestanlaşmasına bağlıyor. Ayrıca, Anadolu sermayesinin Türkiye'yi merkez-çevre paradigması bağlamında ''demokratikleştireceği ve liberalleştireceği'' dahi o dönem bazı düşünürler tarafından iddia ediliyor.Kurtuluş Cengiz ise bu iki iddianın da yanlış olduğunu belirtiyor. Anadolu'nun kapitalistleşmesini 20. yüzyılın başına kadar götüren Cengiz, dinin çok az bir rol oynadığını belirtiyor. Asıl etmenin sermaye birikimi, know-how edinimi, pazarların büyüyüşü ve Türkiye'nin dünya kapitalist sistemine entegrasyonu olduğunu belirtiyor. Ayrıca Anadolu sermaye birikimi ile demokratikleşme arasında bir bağlantı olmadığını belirtiyor.Yaşar ve Vahit, kitabın argümanlarını hem değerlendiriyor hem de eleştiriyor.00:00 - Giriş01:38 - Saha Çalışması02:41 - ‘Thick Description'03:47 - ‘Anadolu Kaplanları'05:31 - Bu Kitap Hangi Tezlere Karşı?07:31 - Marx vs Weber08:31 - Anadolu'da Kapitalizmin Doğuşu10:03 - Sermaye Gayrimüslimlerde11:35 - Eşkiyalığın Sosyolojik Kaynakları12:55 - Gayrimüslimlerin Yarattığı Boşluk14:38 - Anadolu'da Kaçakçılık16:43 - Hacılar'da Sermaye Oluşumu: Sümerbank ve Çerçilik20:22 - Rima Gold21:22 - Dokumacılık26:13 - Halıcılık: Bir Sonraki Aşama27:37 - Ticaretten Doğan Sermaye31:00 - Fabrikalaşma ve HES34:27 - Özal'ın Kayseri Ziyareti36:41 - Uçan Kazlar Modeli38:25 - Kayseri Neden Başarısını Koruyamadı?43:17 - Mektepli vs Alaylı48:45 - 18.

Nova epizoda podkasta pod zaštitom Međunarodnog PEN centra, "Dobar loš zao", je tu! U prvom delu emisije Nenad Kulačin i Marko Vidojković analizirali su betoniranje ptica naprednjačkim banerom, betoniranje očiju gledanjem policijskog plesa, betoniranje ušiju slušanjem Sisolinijevog lupetaranja, da bi sve bilo krunisano betoniranjem mozga povodom proslave trećeg rođendana TV Konjdilomfera. Gost je diplomirani kulturolog, aktivista, politički zatvorenik i žrtva režimskih batinaša, Lazar Dinić. Lazar je podneo raport o svom oporavku posle prebijanja koje je doživeo u Boru, govorio je o jezivom iskustvu iz zatvora na Klisi gde je bio u pritvoru, kao i to kako kućni pritvor utiče na psihu zatvorenika. Pored toga, Dinić je, zajedno sa voditeljima, analizirao preletanje sa studentske liste u Kuli, koliko svađa između studenata i opozicije na društvenim mrežama ima veze s onim što se dešava na terenu, a zahvaljujući jednom od pitanja sa Patreona, podelio je sa gledaocima koji su mu omiljeni muzički album, knjiga i kompjuterska igra.

Dental A-Team is all about case acceptance. In this episode, Kiera shares how a practice can double its case acceptance in one month (or even one day! She has receipts!). She gives five tactical tips practices can apply today to refine that acceptance and start upping that percentage of "yes." Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: Kiera Dent- Dental A Team (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera and today is a great day. I hope that you're loving it and I hope that you remember just as a quick little motivational thought for you that what's right is just as available as what's wrong. And I think so often we're looking at what's wrong in my life and why isn't this working versus thinking what's going well, what's right in the world, what's what's and I'm not saying to belittle, miss sunshine and not see all the things that are really going on. But I do think that what we focus on, we attract and we achieve more of. so practices that are high performing practices that really have great cultures, they're looking for what's right in this world. They're looking for the good, the positive, they're building that. But that does not mean that they're not seeing the things that need to be impacted and fixed. And so I just really want you to, to think about that today as we as we tackle a fun topic, and that's about case acceptance. And if you know me, you know that I'm obsessed about case acceptance and Today we're gonna go through how to double your case acceptance in 30 days or even just one day. And it's really true. I've done this multiple times. We've taken practices from 50 % case acceptance to 100 % in one day. I have some practices, they know who they are, they listen to the podcast, shout out to them, where we coach their treatment coordinators. And we've been doing this for several years and we've added multiple millions to their practices. We're not quite to the billions, no pressure team. I know you guys like a good challenge, ⁓ but genuinely, and it's through helping. just people have better lives. And I think about case acceptance and people are like, but you know, case acceptance, Kiera, it's about like money or it's this objection. And I just want to say that realistically, most treatment coordinators, what happens is we accidentally plant weeds in our flower gardens, aka objections in our case acceptance, unintentionally. And I can have the exact same patient, exact same scenario, different treatment coordinator, different result. And so what I found, and this is why I love this, this is where I got my start. You guys know that I'm obsessed with helping patients and teams and dentists just have their best lives possible. And so really just giving you guys some tips on how we can do this, how you can boost your case acceptance. And these are tactical ways. So like take the recipe today, take this in, apply it. But what I want to say is I believe that case acceptance is a journey and it's not an overnight sensation. And these practices I alluded to, again, they are some of my favorite clients to work with. The team is amazing. They show up, they have grit. and they recognize that it is always a next level to improve. And so that's why we work together because we are like, I've trained them for years and yet they keep coming back and we keep refining and we keep going to the next level and we keep improving because there's always a next level within case acceptance. And I think when you recognize that and you see that you can actually be an even stronger treatment coordinator. you guys know, Dental A Team, we are obsessed with making your life better. We love to work with doctors and teams. We love to do it virtually or in person with you and to possibly influence and impact the world of dentistry in the greatest way possible. So I'm so glad you're here on the podcast with us. If you love our podcast, please be sure to like, subscribe, share this with people, leave us a review. I do personally read those reviews and I'm so thankful for you guys. I'm thankful for this community. I'm thankful for ⁓ the, I think just the lives that have been changed. I love meeting you in real life. I love hearing from you in emails. I love. this community of people. I just love people in general. And so I hope that you know that I just truly love and adore you and I hope that you feel that and if I was in person, I'd give you a giant hug today and tell you that I know you're doing better than you think you are. And they're simple tips. ⁓ I can speak very confidently to case acceptance. I was speaking to a candidate that I'm interviewing and there was this there was this humble confidence about them where They didn't have to prove anything to me on the interview. was like, Kiera, I've done this. I've done this many times. It's like, I know how to get the winning championship and it's not hard. And I don't say this egotistically. I will say that I do know how to get case acceptance boosted and our team knows how to do this. And I think this is one of the greatest services you can give your patients is helping them say yes to dentistry that's necessary. And so I hope that you feel that what I'm teaching you today comes from very strong. Experience is not just theories and ideas, but genuinely been there done that done it successfully and I'm here to share that with you So a couple of things is number one. I'm really big on when we are working with this So first steps first I work hard on making sure that we have the right mindset I say mindsets everything So if you think a patient is gonna say no to you You're gonna make yourself correct if you say a patient is gonna say yes to you You're going to make yourself correct. So whichever one it is and to me. I'm like both of those are free Thoughts are free, words are free. Let's pick the ones that serve us. And I'm going to choose the one of everybody says yes to me. I even have doctors that text me and they're like, remember Kiera how you say this? And I'm like, I genuinely believe it. It's because I believe in my doctors. I believe in what we're doing. And I believe that patients deserve to have the best dental treatment and new doctors and new teams are the ones who are going to give it to them. So I'm not going to let this patient leave me just like I'm not going to let somebody who's looking for a great consultant. Leave me, I know we are the best freaking consulting company you could ever have. So if you wanna have the best consultant, call me, call our team, let's work with you because you're going to see results and that's what I'm about. So with your office, same thing, you should have that same level of confidence in your practice. You should be able to say, I want these patients, I'm going to help these patients. Now that doesn't mean I take on their problems, but I do believe that mindset is 80 % of the game of case acceptance. So that's step one is we gotta start with that. Doctors, when you walk into the room, I wanna when you put your foot on that threshold, walking in to do an exam, You come into doctor 2.0, whomever it is, like patients say yes to you. Your job is to give them a very clear diagnosis and to be able to guide them into correct decisions. Words create worlds. What world am I creating for our patients? What am I doing for our patients? Am I helping them see like this is easy to say yes or am I making it so confusing and hard with multiple options? Doctors, I'm calling you out on this. I know you wanna explain everything. You're freaking brilliant, but sometimes that's called confusion. And that makes a patient not wanna say yes to you. Complexity is the enemy of execution. I'll say that again. Complexity is the enemy of execution. So if you don't have clarity and you don't drive people with clean, concise routes, you can give them the options, but let's talk about, do they want fixed or removable? You've got to be very clear and you've got to be very confident when you deliver. Patients are buying your confidence. So number one, I want you to 1,000 % change your mindset. I don't care what you got to do, who you've got to be, but you've got to start with a correct mindset. And if you will do that, your case acceptance will automatically just with that one thing, go up and that's between treatment coordinators, team members and dentists. All of us patients love us. They want to say yes to us and we have a moral obligation to help them. Number two, I'm really big on you guys know we have this where we're going to have doctors having great presentations. So I talk a lot about ⁓ child Dini's principles of persuasion and whether you like those or not, that's fine. Words are free. Options are free. Thoughts are free. Take them if you want them and I'm obsessed with this because if I can get a patient in the mindset of saying yes to me, I've already teed them up into that confidence space. So I recommend doctors when you lean the patient back, you say, can I lean you back? They will say yes. Can I do an exam? They will say yes. This is helping them prime and we're priming them to get them into the mindset to say yes to you. Really, really, really important. And I know you don't want to do this, but guess what? It's very easy. So we have the mindset already there. Then we get them to be saying yes to us. Be very careful treatment coordinators. This does not always apply to you because the last thing I want you to do is do you want to get treatment scheduled? We are not leading them to answers with no. We are only leading to answers of yes. So if you're going to use a yes or a no, you've got to make sure it's gonna lead to a yes. I do not want you planting them with nos. You've gotta be very careful with this. Then step three is going to be, we do comprehensive exams and we wrap it with the NDTR. You guys have heard me preach about this. This was made up in a practice, I don't know, 10 years ago. Shout out to ⁓ my Tucson practice. I know you listened to this. It was your office because your office manager didn't wanna use a route slip. So I made up this acronym that has stuck with us for years and it's become one of the bread and butter of dentistry that I use. And I will tell you, you put this into place, you're going to add multiples to your practice. We call it the NDTR, next visit, date, time, re-care. You get those items, you put it in a nice pretty bow, doctors, you do a comprehensive exam, you make sure you don't have too many of them being crazy. Like get them into pretty much where they're onto one solution. If you are my mom or my grandma or my dad or my brother or my sister, whatever it is. This is what I would recommend for you. If cost wasn't an option, what would you select? You can ask them, what's the most important thing to you? Cosmetic function, cost or longevity. There are ways you can tee people up and then you can guide conversations into exactly what they want. This takes finesse, this takes practice, but ultimately we're after results, we're after the W, we're after helping the most amount of freaking patients that we can, all right? So for you, if you want the W, to me, case acceptance, the way we win is by helping more patients say yes. If you're a great doctor, I want patients saying yes to you. If you're not a great doctor, I want you to become a great doctor so more patients can say yes to you. That's where we're at. So we've got to wrap our pretty little treatment plan up with the next visit. It's clear. What is our exact next visit? Kiera, I want to see you back for the crown in the upper right. I want to see you back in two weeks. That's the date. And I need about an hour and a half of that. Please, for the love of everything, this is step whatever. I don't know. I think this is step three for you. But I want you to make sure it's very clear and concise because Complexity is the enemy of execution. If they're walking up of like, don't even know what treatment I'm coming back for. I don't know what I need to come. A crown is gonna take me all day. I can't do that. Your patient is subconsciously planting objections and why they can't say yes to this. But if you eliminate those, like we're clearing the fog, it's very easy. I just need to see you back in two weeks. I need to see you for an hour and a half and we're gonna take care of that crown for you in the upper right and the fillings. Or we're gonna do implants, whatever it is, I don't care. or like, hey, we're gonna see you in three visits. We're gonna start with the upper right. We're gonna take care of that. Then we're gonna go and do your SRP. And then we're gonna finalize with all the rest of the fillings. I don't care, but make it so clear and simple for them. They don't need it all. And I know we sometimes go, this is where we go from clinical jargon to patient simplicity. Make it simple. When I go in and I'm trying, I remember I was at the van store and this girl was like, so do you want a bag? And I was like, no. Do you want this? Do you want that? Do you want this? I'm like, just like I'm done. You guys mean far too many questions. I don't even want to come back and talk to you. Like keep it. I don't even want to buy it. And I think we often forget that our patients, while we're trying to educate and explain, and there is a line of that, this isn't their passion. And I say that with the most amount of like love, like, know, I know you care about this so much, but they don't. What they care about is, are you the right person? And how are you going to get me healthy and confident? Now they might have questions that they need answers to. That's okay. But for the bulk, people want to know. Where am I at? Why does this need to get done? And what are my steps to get it fixed? I was at the jeweler the other day and like, my gosh, it was like, you have these chips, you've got this, you've got this warranty. And I just, I didn't do anything because it was too much. I don't care about jewelry and chips and this like, is my diamond going to fall out or not? And what do I need to do to prevent that? And then they were like, well, it's this amount. And I was like, okay. But the ring didn't even cost me that much to begin with. So you've got to make sure that it really makes sense to patients in the simplicity. So confidence, number one, you've got that. Words create worlds, you're gonna walk in there. Number two, we're gonna tee them up with giving the yeses. Number three, we're gonna give a very simple NDTR, give it to the patient, make sure it's clear and concise, what is the very next step. It's very clear, very simple for them to go through. And then we take them up to the front office and every person, if they follow this, we use route slips, we have handoffs, I don't care, you can have a virtual. hand off, I don't care, you can type it in, but we need next visit date, time, so we're all saying the exact same thing. So this patient knows my goal for every practice is that that patient leaves the operatory, walks to the front office, which they should not do, but the visual is there that they walk up and like, hey, Kiera, Dr. Smith wants to see me back in two weeks for a crown and it needs an hour and a half for that. If it is that clear, and I need to schedule my cleaning with Sarah. Do you think that patient's bought in? The answer is yes. You've already got them like 90 % of the way. Now all we've got to do is deal with finances. Like that's truly it. And sometimes that's not even the issue, but we need to make sure that we have that. Now, step four is schedule first. Put the emphasis and the priority on the schedule. People are like, so we got to do the crowds. It's going to be this amount. No, why are we talking money first? Dentist diagnosed it. We need to get this treatment done. Why are we sitting here wondering if money is the issue or not? It's not, let's get the treatment done. Let's assume they want to do treatment. Remember, everybody says yes to Why would they the dentist if they don't want to get treatment done? They are here because they want to get their mouth healthy. They don't come here because they're like, well, I'm not gonna do anything with it. I went to the jeweler because I wanted my ring fixed. They made it so hard, I walked out of there because it was too hard for me. If they would have said, Kiera, perfect, your two choices are, we can either do it on warranty and this is how much it is, or if you don't, this is how much the total is. If they would have just said it that simply for me, I would have probably fixed my ring. But it was all this nonsense that I walked out. So think about your patients the same way. So schedule first, that is our next step. Hey, perfect, so Dr. Smith wants to see you. He wants to see you back in two weeks. You're like, care of my schedule is so booked. Fine, when your schedule and my schedule align, please stop making objections for things that are simple. I need you to get out of your own way on case acceptance. You sit there and over explain, give too many options, don't think it's good to give them urgency, cause you're like, well, the two is not gonna break. I hear you. But what you're lacking is they're gonna leave your practice, go to Costco, be thinking about cereal and the kids and dance. This is the time that they're dedicating to themselves to get their dentistry done. Be respectful of their time and make them a raving freaking fan. Make it so easy for them. I think about Disney. Disney makes it so easy for me to spend money with them. It's a mobile app. I don't have to go stand in lines. I have this, I have that. They make it so easy for me to say yes. And my question to you is, are you making it easy for your patients to say yes to you or are you making it so hard that they don't want to? Are you making them so confused? They're like, I don't even know what just happened. With IVF, do you know how many words they talked to me about that I don't even know? But it was like, Kiera, this is your next step. This is the total of how much you'll pay and here are financing options if you need them. Now, the only reason I use that as an example, is because IVF is about $50,000 per treatment. Just like you're all on excess cases, that is the appropriate time to talk about financing there because not everybody has 50 grand just sitting there, just like in that. But most people usually are okay with one to two to three to five to 10,000 even. Not all the time, and I'm not saying that, but be careful that then with treatment coordinate, and this is the fifth step, is we need to make sure that when we're presenting treatment, we don't assume that it's money. We don't assume it's all these things. It's not, it's your confidence in how you're saying it. Schedule first, talk money second. Now when we're talking money, we go into it and they're like, but what's it gonna cost? No problem, I'm go over that. You're gonna be super confident. We're gonna make sure we take care of all that. Dr. Smith's super busy and I wanna make sure I reserve that time for you. I have Monday or Wednesday, which works best for you. Control the conversation, make it very simple for them. Make it very, very easy for them. Then after that, what we're gonna do is we present the totals. Here's the total amount. Here's the estimated insurance amount. This'll be your total when I see you on Wednesday. What questions do you have for me? I want you to be super confident moving forward. I say super confident moving forward. I am guiding them. I am saying what I want them to do. This is all words again are free. Use them. I believe that this patient deserves it the best dentistry and I wanna make it as easy as possible. There was no pressure on it. There was nothing. It is very, very simple. I've told you what you need. We've got you scheduled. Here's the total. What questions do you have? Some people will be like, let's talk about financing. Absolutely, we've got financing. Do you have savings or do you want to talk about third party financing? I'm not just throwing out my Rolodex because what happens is, and I did this, we were buying bikes. My husband and I were buying bikes back in COVID. And I remember they were like, ⁓ and or you could do this like thing and you won't have any interest. My husband and had the money. We would have paid right then and there, but because they would not stop talking and assume we weren't going to say yes, They offered financing. And I know a lot of people fight me in the industry on this and like, no, Kiera, you should offer financing. Like that's the way of the world. I am really pro simple equates results. And if I can have simple things, I'm going to get a lot more yeses. So treatment coordination, we're going to have financial options. Make sure you have it. We want to have them immediately. We want to be really, really solid with this. We are going to present all of our treatment there. And then if they are not on a yes, I go past it two times. If they're still not a yes, I'm gonna follow up with them in two days, two weeks, two months. Follow-up matters. You have got to follow up on this. We need to check in with them. People get busy, they've got questions. Love them. Do this out of love, not obligation. And that might be like my best line for you. Do everything with case acceptance out of love. I told the team the other day, I just imagine when a patient sits with me, I'm giving them a warm hug. And it's like, not an actual one. Please don't get weird. But like, how can I make you... feel like you are the most important, incredible human being sitting right in front of me and I'm gonna help you get the best dentistry possible and I'm gonna make your day just a little bit better because you happen to be in my world today. That's the direction to come from. Doctors, that's the direction to come from when you're doing your case presentation. Hygienist, this is how we tee it up to our doctors. These are simple little steps and I promise you, if you will do these items, your case acceptance will flourish. If you choose to pick and choose like this as a buffet, it won't grow. It is all of these steps. consistently every time when we look at the results, we review the results, we see how are we doing and we refine. Case acceptance is about refinement, it's not about perfection. Where am I having that one or two words where I just need to do that, just change it a little bit, what needs to happen? And I promise you, you're going to get it. So if you want help with this or you wanna be like the team where we're adding multiple millions, please, please, please join us. Reach out, Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. But you, your practice and your team. deserve to have the best case acceptance. You deserve to have patients that love you, that wanna work with you. This is what it's about. They love you. So let them work with you. Make it easy to work with you. Progress over perfection is where it's at. And I am obsessed with this. Just think about it. People are like, well consulting, can cost so much. And I say, if I helped you get one or two more cases closed every single month, we'd pay for ourselves.
