In this episode, I sit down with bestselling author and investigative journalist Lee Strobel to explore some of the most profound questions of faith: Are miracles real? What evidence supports the Christmas story? What are angels like? Lee was famously an atheist, and when his wife came to faith in Christ, he set out to prove her wrong. In the end, he discovered that the evidence for Jesus was too substantial to ignore and he became a Christian. Since then, he has helped countless people wrestle with life's biggest questions: Is God real? How do we navigate a spiritually mismatched marriage? How can we help our kids understand the evidence that Jesus came, died, and rose again? Now, he has a new movie coming out called The Case for Miracles, bringing the supernatural to life in a powerful and compelling way. In this interview, we explore: Documented cases of divine healing Spiritual Mismatch in marriage and how to have hope The evidence surrounding Christmas and the incarnation Do angels exist? Do we have guardian angels?

Explore why Nigerian artistes such as Davido, Rema, Falz, and IllBliss are using social media to highlight insecurity across the country. This episode breaks down kidnappings, ransom trends, and the critical role of celebrity voices in shaping national awareness.We examine why artistes are speaking out about insecurity and how their online reactions reflect the growing crisis in Nigeria. While not a deep dive, the discussion provides an accurate, surface-level understanding of verified incidents including kidnappings, bandit attacks, and rising ransom demands. Analysts now describe these trends as the economy of insecurity.The episode shows how artistes leverage their social platforms to raise awareness. They are not profiting from these crises but amplifying updates, responding to attacks, and drawing attention to the kidnap-for-ransom epidemic. Documented posts and public statements from Davido, Rema, Falz, IllBliss, and others illustrate this pattern.Listeners gain insight into how repeated attacks across multiple states, increasing ransom payments, and widespread fear have created a criminal ecosystem that functions like an economy. The conversation also explains why artistes feel compelled to speak publicly and how their online responses influence national awareness.For a deeper, data-driven analysis, read the full Substack article Nigeria's Kidnap for Ransom Industry: The Economy of Insecurity here:

Struggling to convert marketing activity into predictable revenue? In this episode of Small Business Matters, Tim and Taylor Fulton welcome Keith Finger, founder and Chief Revenue Fixer of Revenue Insights. Keith breaks down why “more leads” is often a band-aid, how to hunt down the real breakdowns in the revenue journey, and why documenting processes and improving handoffs can outpace any new website or shiny tech tool. If you run an SMB or a B2B shop and want practical, systems-first thinking, you can apply this week — from fixing churn to building a sales culture that empowers people — press play. Keith explains how to stop shoveling more prospects into a leaky funnel, diagnose root causes (process vs people), and prioritize changes that produce sustainable revenue growth. Takeaways • Fix the root causes — not just the symptoms. Many revenue problems look like marketing or sales issues, but the real breakdowns often come from unclear processes, poor handoffs, or misaligned expectations across teams. More leads won't fix a leaky system. • Documented processes create freedom, not bureaucracy. Keith emphasizes that clear, repeatable processes help teams deliver consistently, reduce confusion, and allow leaders to step out of daily chaos. If it's not written down, it's not scalable. • Technology can't replace strategy. New tools won't solve foundational problems. Tech only accelerates what's already working—or exposes what isn't. Start with the workflow, not the software. • Sales leadership matters more than sales hacks. The most successful teams have leaders who coach, ask questions, encourage critical thinking, and foster accountability. A strong sales culture consistently beats short-term tactics. • Revenue is a full-company responsibility. The customer experience spans marketing, sales, product, and service. When each stage works in isolation, revenue suffers. When they're aligned, growth becomes far more predictable.

TITLE: The MAiD Scandal: Is Canada Pushing the Sick Toward Euthanasia? Canada's Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program was supposed to be compassionate. It was supposed to be the last resort for the terminally ill. But somewhere along the line, the line itself disappeared — and what's left is a system more permissive, more controversial, and more ethically unstable than anything in the Western world. Today on The Morning Report, Willie Lawson breaks down what's REALLY going on in the headlines about Canada “forcing doctors” to euthanize treatable people. No, the government is not rounding up doctors and ordering them to kill patients. But yes — and this is where it gets messy — the MAiD system has expanded so aggressively, and with so little guardrail oversight, that treatable people have been approved for euthanasia. Some were mentally ill. Some were disabled. Some were simply poor, or homeless, or unable to access basic services. And doctors? Many say they feel pressured — pressured by administrators, pressured by policy language, pressured by the fear of discrimination complaints if they refuse. That's not healthcare. That's something much darker. In this episode, we break down:• How MAiD started vs. what it's become• Documented cases of misuse involving veterans, disabled Canadians, and people living in poverty• Why watchdog groups — not conservatives — are sounding the alarm• How the Canadian health bureaucracy quietly incentivizes euthanasia over treatment• Why this matters for the United States right now• The moral cost of a society that finds death cheaper than care Sometimes the conspiracy people aren't right — they're just early. And in the case of MAiD, the warnings were ignored until the abuses became too big to hide. If you value life, liberty, and dignity… this is a story you need to hear.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/morning-report--3694168/support.

How to Build a High-Performing Sales Team in a Founder-Led Business: Insights from Nicholas LoiseFor many small and midsize business owners, sales can be both the engine and the bottleneck of growth. Founder-led sales will only take a company so far before scalability demands process, structure, and leadership. In this episode, host Josh Elledge speaks with Nicholas Loise, Founder of Sales Performance Team, who shares practical strategies for transitioning from founder-driven selling to building a high-performing, self-sustaining sales organization.Building a Scalable Sales SystemNicholas Loise explains that most founders struggle with hiring salespeople because they underestimate how different it is to sell for a small business compared to a large enterprise. Without the backing of a big brand, sales success depends on grit, creativity, and adaptability. He emphasizes that before hiring, founders must document their entire sales process—from prospecting and discovery to objection handling and closing—so new hires have a clear roadmap to follow.Once the playbook is in place, Nicholas recommends hiring two salespeople at once to increase the chances of success, benchmark performance, and encourage healthy collaboration. He also stresses the importance of investing heavily in the first 90 days, creating structured onboarding, shadowing opportunities, and clear milestones to ensure quick ramp-up and retention. Compensation should be simple and transparent, typically a mix of base salary plus commission that motivates results while providing stability during onboarding.Finally, Nicholas discusses how to maintain oversight without micromanaging. Delegating sales effectively requires trust—but also process. Regular reviews, feedback loops, and continuous updates to your playbook keep the system strong. By using objective assessment tools and focusing on cultural fit, founders can build sales teams that scale sustainably and deliver consistent performance long after they've stepped out of the front-line role.About Nicholas LoiseNicholas Loise is the Founder of Sales Performance Team and a seasoned sales strategist who helps founder-led businesses build scalable, high-performing sales teams. With decades of experience in sales leadership, Nicholas specializes in designing sales playbooks, recruiting and onboarding top-performing reps, and aligning compensation structures that drive profitable growth.About Sales Performance TeamSales Performance Team helps $1M–$25M companies transition from founder-led selling to a system-driven sales organization.

Horror strikes in the schools of rural Malaysia as girls suddenly begin screaming, claiming that there are evil spirits around them. And in a shoe factory, more women (up to 30 at a time) begin acting strangely and displaying supernatural strength. In another case, a Chinese family in Malaysia begins experiencing a spiritual possession; something that only a bomoh, a spiritual healer, can help with. What makes these creepy cases so bizarre is that they were studied by psychiatrists through interviews, analysis, and professional diagnosis. Even to this day, they are considered to be cases of mass spiritual possession.Get our newsletter here: https://bio.scary.fmFind Edwin on TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram as @edwincovHorrorStory.com

She was online. She was interacting with people. She was seen. And still—somehow—no one stopped this. In this segment, FBI profiler Robin Dreeke joins me to examine the digital behavior, online grooming signs, and community silence surrounding this case. From reported messages about pregnancy, to shared social content, to alleged sightings by classmates—there were signs. Multiple. Public. Documented. And ignored. We get into: – Why offenders sometimes flaunt inappropriate behavior online – The psychology behind public performance and private control – What it says when friends, fans, or even platforms fail to intervene – And how law enforcement uses this digital trail to apply pressure behind the scenes Celeste's body was found in a towed, impounded Tesla. Electronic devices were reportedly seized from a Hollywood Hills home. Still: no one has been charged. No cause of death released. But the data is out there. The patterns are there. And the silence around them should disturb everyone watching this unfold. If this case feels frustrating, it's because it should.

On Nov. 5th, 1975, members of the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest logging crew reported seeing and encountering a large, bright hovering object that lit up the night sky...They claimed this "UFO" struck one crew member (Travis Walton) with a "beam of light," upon which Travis went missing for 5 days...Upon his return, he claimed to have been abducted by alien beings and brought aboard their spacecraft. Documented in Travis' book "The Walton Experience," this incident has long been the subject of controversy, conjecture and skepticism...Was it all in fact, an elaborate hoax?? #Aliens #AlienAbduction #TravisWalton #UFOs #Hoax
The concept of "brain death," introduced in 1968 to enable organ harvesting, has never been proven equivalent to actual death — it merely defines an irreversible coma Documented cases exist of "brain dead" patients who were conscious, including some who mouthed "help me" as their organs were nearly harvested Global organ shortages have fueled a black market, with an estimated 5% to 20% of transplants involving illegal procurement and added pressure to lower diagnostic standards for “brain death” Recent federal investigations found serious failures in the U.S. organ donation system: 29.3% of reviewed cases showed troubling signs, and 20.8% of patients had neurologic activity incompatible with procurement — yet transplant coordinators still pushed to proceed Safer, ethical alternatives exist — such as natural therapies like DMSO that have revived “brain dead” patients and restored organ function, removing the need for transplant
The host kicks off the segment with a laugh, discussing a rumor that Bill Belichick's girlfriend, Jordan Hudson, a 24-year-old, is responsible for the UNC football team's poor defensive performance and has filed a trademark for "gold digger." The tone then shifts dramatically to serious political and financial commentary, focusing on federal reserve governor Lisa Cook. The host and his co-host break down allegations that Cook committed multiple instances of mortgage fraud and failed to report rental income to the IRS. They argue that these documented crimes are undeniable and reflect a sense of entitlement among certain political figures, who believe they are "immune from the law."

What Happens When We Die? Find out in our interview with Dr. Jeffrey Long! Dr. Jeffrey Long, renowned radiation oncologist and founder of the Near-Death Experience Research Foundation (NDERF), shares his jaw-dropping insights into the science of NDEs, consciousness, and the afterlife. Drawing from over 5,000 verified near-death experiences, he presents the most compelling scientific and spiritual evidence that your consciousness may exist after life independent of the brain. From documented out of body experiences under anesthesia to cases where blind individuals describe vivid visuals and the deaf report hearing, Dr. Long dismantles mainstream scientific objections with hard data, like low oxygen, seizures, or residual brain activity. He explores the profound themes of life after death, spirituality, and God and reveals how people across cultures describe encounters with heaven, hell, or divine beings through deeply personal spiritual and often Christian lenses. This fascinating interview touches on the philosophical and religious implications of near-death states, including the idea of a pre-birth plan, and life reviews. Plus he explains the lasting aftereffects of NDEs, from extrasensory perception to sudden shifts in religion, values, or purpose. Dr. Long also unpacks how near-death experiences differ from dreams or psychedelic trips, and why they're often described as “more real than life.” Whether you approach this from the lens of Christianity, science, philosophy, or open-minded curiosity, this conversation offers something for skeptics and believers alike. It's a soul-stirring podcast that will transform how you think about life, death, and the possibilities of what comes after.

Orca Allokelping is the newly documented behavior where southern resident killer whales use bull kelp as a tool to rub against each other—possibly to remove dead skin and soothe irritation. Captured via drone, this social spa-like behavior, known as allokelping, reveals a rare example of cooperative tool use in the wild. Scientists believe it serves both physical and social functions, strengthening bonds within pods and supporting skin health. Kelp grooming is more than just orca hygiene. It highlights the intelligence and cultural complexity of these endangered whales. The discovery comes with a reminder: kelp forests and Chinook salmon are essential for these behaviors to continue. As habitat and food sources decline, so too may the traditions that define this population. This episode breaks down the science behind the behavior and why it matters for conservation.

In this episode of the Scalable Law Podcast, I explore one of the most powerful tools for law firm management and long-term growth: Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). If you're looking for a sustainable way to grow your practice, reduce overwhelm, and delegate with confidence, this episode is for you. Most law firms rely heavily on their practice management software—but without the right law firm SOPs, your systems are incomplete. SOPs are what create consistency, improve onboarding, and ultimately allow you to scale your law firm without it depending solely on you. Key Segments Understanding What Law Firm SOPs Actually Are SOPs are step-by-step documented processes that outline how tasks are completed in your law firm. While software like LEAP or Smokeball helps manage day-to-day operations, it's your SOPs that provide the structure and direction your team needs to use those tools effectively. The Cost of Operating Without SOPs Without documented SOPs, your firm relies too heavily on individual memory and inconsistent training. This leads to inconsistent service delivery, bottlenecks, and team burnout. SOPs are essential to reduce risk, improve performance, and ensure business continuity when key team members are absent or move on. The Areas in Your Firm That Need SOPs SOPs shouldn't just exist for legal work—they're critical across all departments. From opening and closing files, billing and trust accounting, to handling client intake, social media, HR onboarding, and document processing, every part of your practice needs structure to scale sustainably. Why SOPs Are Essential to Scaling a Law Firm SOPs allow you to create consistency, reduce duplication, and delegate tasks without confusion. They support faster onboarding, improve team accountability, and give you the freedom to step back from the day-to-day without quality slipping. When it comes to how to scale a law firm, SOPs provide the operational backbone that allows growth without chaos. How We Help Law Firm Owners Build SOPs Inside the Scalable Law Accelerator, we work closely with law firm owners to create SOPs that support high-performing teams and smooth internal operations. We provide templates, training, and support to roll out SOPs across every area of the business—helping you move from reactive to strategic. Your Next Step to Systemise and Scale If your law firm is still relying on informal processes or ad-hoc communication, start by documenting just one core task this week. Whether it's onboarding a new client or preparing a brief, take the first step in building a firm that runs on systems, not people. My Takeaway Building a scalable law firm doesn't start with flashy software or hiring more people—it starts with clarity. And clarity comes from systems. What I've seen time and time again is that law firms that invest in creating and implementing law firm SOPs grow faster, experience less chaos, and give their owners more freedom. If your firm still relies on memory, verbal instructions, or "how we've always done it", you're holding back your potential. Documented systems don't restrict you—they liberate you. SOPs are what allow you to lead, not just manage. If This Episode Gave You Clarity or Motivation...

It all began by creating a digital brain for his agency.

He started as a print designer back in 1996, cranking out newspaper ads when CSS came on the scene, sparking heated debate at the office over whether it would change the internet or not. Shawn got curious, taught himself to code, and started building sites on the side. What started as a hobby turned into freelancing… and when the 2008 housing collapse hit, he went all in. He hustled hard on Craigslist, building $1,500 WordPress sites and quickly realizing he was making more than his day job. This gave way to his first lesson in business: Hustle works early on, but you can't scale without systems. When He Knew It Was a “Real” Agency Starting out, Shawn was able to handle all the WordPress development, design, and strategy by himself. By setting up some repeatable pieces, he was able to grow his client list, with some of them coming back for site support. As projects stacked up, however, he hit a wall: He couldn't sell, deliver, and support all at once. He decided his first hire would handle client support, so he could free up time for higher-value work. From there, he slowly backed himself out of development… then strategy… then design - replacing himself piece by piece. Of course, this didn't automatically erase all the agency's problems. Initially, it only created a new set challenges. Adding new pieces to the team made their lack of documented processes very clear. For a while, the handoff confusion created meant everything continued to run through Shawn... The real issue was that there was too much knowledge trapped in his head. Why Documented Processes Are the Key to Scaling The obvious solution was to start documenting everything from UX components to strategy guides to build quality standards. From that point on, everyone knew who was responsible for what and at what point. The goal wasn't to limit creativity but to empower the team to make smart decisions without running to Shawn for answers. For Shawn, a focal point of this shift had to be underlying the agency's why. Everyone on the team had to be very clear on: Why do we work with clients the way we do? Why are we doing things this way and not that way? Making sure everyone understood the overall goals would inform the decision-making, cultural aspects, and would help the team work cohesively. Documented systems = freedom for you and clarity for your team. Win-win. The Next Step: Creating a ‘Digital Brain' for Your Team Fast forward to today, and Shawn is using AI to level up even more. He records and transcribes sales calls, discovery calls, and proposal work—then synthesizes it into a knowledge base his team can actually use. No more “Shawn said this one thing on a call” confusion mid-project. The team can look back at the records and apply direction to move forward without him. We've talked about the next step with AI for agency owners: train an AI assistant on your agency's entire knowledge base. That means training it with everything you have in your knowledge bank, including: Past client insights Brand guidelines Design patterns Sales conversations Internal processes Apply these practices ASAP so that your team can tap that knowledge instantly — without pinging you for answers. Think of it as your agency's “digital brain” and the key to your freedom. Why Low-Code + Prebuilt Systems Are Boosting Profits One of Shawn's smartest moves has been leaning hard into reusable systems and low-code tools. He's baked strategy into UX components, aligned dev processes with design frameworks, and streamlined builds so 80% of each site is repeatable. That frees the team to focus on the 20% that really matters—the strategic stuff that drives results (and justifies premium pricing). More profit, faster delivery, better outcomes. Everybody wins.

If you are a member of the Cuba, Venezuelan, Haitian or Nicaraguan American community who voted for Trump, you are in for a rude awakening, as the Supreme Court MAGA right majority just gave a big green light for Trump to immediately deport “Documented” people from those countries living under protective status in the US under Biden as they with US sponsors help seek asylum and other legal status. Michael Popok takes a close look at Justice Jackson's stinging dissent and outlines what should happen next in the voting booth.
