In this episode, host Travis Chappell and producer Eric swap stories about the strangest, most unconventional ways people are making real money—from TikTok shops to doodle detanglers—and how “weird” ideas can turn into serious income. Travis also opens up about his own nontraditional paths to getting paid, from door-to-door sales to a short-lived modeling side quest. On this episode we talk about: Creators making $40–50K/month purely from TikTok Shop affiliate commissions with no physical products How an eight-figure landscaper turned his experience into “Uber for lawn care” with the GreenPal app Flea market and Facebook Marketplace flippers who drive around, buy underpriced items, and resell them on eBay for five-figure profits on single deals A niche e‑commerce brand built around a single problem: detangling doodle dog hair and scaling it to seven figures Remote “job stacking” and how one guest runs three work‑from‑home jobs for a combined multiple six‑figure salary Travis' own unconventional income streams: podcast sponsorships, coaching days, Facebook Reels payouts, and even a paid modeling gig in college Top 3 Takeaways Weird often wins. The money is frequently in ultra-specific problems—like doodle hair detanglers or lawn-mowing logistics—rather than trendy, crowded ideas. Distribution is a cheat code. Platforms like TikTok Shop, Facebook Reels, and niche apps can turn other people's products and systems into meaningful cash flow if you understand how to drive attention. “Unconventional” is the new normal. Door-to-door sales, stacked remote jobs, arbitrage flipping, and content monetization show there are many viable ways to earn beyond a traditional 9–5. Notable Quotes “He doesn't even have products—it's all affiliate. He just cranks out videos and commissions.” “You can build a seven‑figure business solving one really specific problem… even if it is just tangled doodle hair.” “Almost everything I've done to make money has been the nontraditional route.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️

If you've grown weary of traditional resolutions, but you still carry a glimmer of hope that positive change is possible for us imperfect humans—then you'll love mindful intention-setting.  In this practice from his mini-course, mindful leadership trainer Rich Fernandez shows us how to vividly envision the "imagine if" possibilities. When we tap into meaning, passion, and a felt sense of welcoming what we long for, it's easier to get clear on the purpose behind our pursuits.  Rich Fernandez is the former CEO of Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute (SIYLI). He was previously the director of executive education and people development at Google, where he was also one of the first SIY teachers. Rich previously co-founded Wisdom Labs and has also served in senior roles at eBay, J.P. Morgan Chase and Bank of America. The transcription of this guided meditation will be online at Mindful.org next week.  Stay curious, stay inspired. Join our community by signing up for our free newsletter:  mindful.org/signup Show Notes Find more from Rich Fernandez here. Go Deeper There are subtle but crucial differences between making traditional New Year's resolutions and setting intentions for the future—because in mindfulness, everything is anchored in self-acceptance and self-love, rather than a quest for endless self-improvement.

He helps companies grow faster, smarter and more profitably by providing advice, mentoring and coaching for today's busy executives. So welcome to the podcast, Steve.Steven 00:00:46  Thank you. Josh. Thanks for having me.Josh 00:00:48  One of the first questions I want to ask, just kind of selfishly for myself, because we're looking to expand onto different channels right now with our business. We've grown to eight figures just on Amazon alone. But we're we are looking to, you know, is it time to explore or double down more on Walmart eBay, Wayfair? Do we try to get into target? Do we go international right and start shipping stuff into Canada, Mexico, the UK, etc.? So my question to you here, Steve, is what kind of sales lift do you see from those different marketplaces? Right.Josh 00:01:28  Like what do you estimate as hey you go to Walmart it best case scenario, you're probably looking at a 10% lift eBay. Maybe it's a 2%, you know, so on and so forth.Steven 00:01:39  Yeah. So it's a very tricky question because I've seen it wildly different. So interesting. I had to if I had to, to put a rough assumption across a lot of different categories and product lines, I would say Walmart is the very next marketplace you're going to want to focus on outside of Amazon. And by the way, don't do it until you're what I like to say 80 to 90% optimized on Amazon. Don't spend your time on these smaller marketplaces, because that's oftentimes the shiny object that gets you in trouble when you're doing a whole bunch of different things, you're not doing any of them well. You've got to you've got to be really well positioned on Amazon. And when I say 80 to 90%, I don't mean of your total opportunity for growth. But if you've identified all these levers you need to pull on Amazon, you need to have a good storefront.Steven 00:02:26  You need to have A+ content. I need to have all of these different components pulled together. Do you feel good about how well optimized they are, and are they in place 80 to 90% of where they should be before you, you know, start migrating to another marketplace? Because if you don't, you're essentially lifting and shifting a catalog that's not optimized to another marketplace. And now all of your optimization efforts are going to be that much harder because you're doing full optimizations across a whole bunch of marketplaces. That's a that's always a risk. I would say Walmart is probably, in the number of 10 to 20% of the Amazon business, and eBay is probably the neighborhood of 10%, maybe 5 to 10% of the, of the Amazon business. but it really does differ quite a bit. I've seen some I've seen some people that actually sell more on Etsy than they do on Amazon because their product is sold out after on that website. I've seen people that do phenomenal on eBay, even though eBay is, you know, not not growing.Steven 00:03:32  It's. Yeah, it's it just so happens that their customers there and that's why I go goes back to, analyzing where your customers spend their time and money and make sure you're present there, do it in the right order. But ultimately make sure you're you're present there. And where you go next is not a cookie cutter answer just because everybody else goes to this next Walmart, you know, Walmart next or eBay after that or whatever, doesn't mean that's...

Hello my friends across the interwebs. After an extended hiatus, here I am with a new blues installment just in time for the holidays. The next few days I will be smoking cigars, watching an assortment of fantastic DVDs that I bought recently, cramming sweet treats into my yap and thoroughly enjoying myself just as an abandoned middle aged man should do. This desolate path of solitude does have it's perks. For instance, I just turned the volume all the way up and blasted Future at midnight because I wanted to jump around with the dog for a bit. This week alone I've watched The Outlaw Josey Wales, Home Alone, The Bourne Identity, The Da Vinci Code and Scarface on Blu-Ray. Multiple football games and the UNC Basketball game as well. Being alone on Christmas does in a way feel like Tyson Fury just socked me right in the kisser. BUT I do get to watch football with the dog, scratch my toes and listen to Black Sabbath records so it's FINE. I did get a super sick tapestry for Christmas too so I'm on fire over here. Keisha I hope you get to rip into something super duper sick tomorrow. I might get myself another Christmas present or two. Insider baseball, I saw some wicked hot Lennie Rosenbluth autographed stuff on eBay. 1957 NCAA Player of the Year that was guarding Wilt Chamberlain in the championship game, no big deal. Met him a few years back and he couldn't have been nicer to me. Him and his wife. He sadly passed last year and I need a piece of Lennie history in this podcast room. Since I'm slowing down on the recording rate I will be upgrading the sound system in here for super wicked hot personal listening seshes. Why am I giving you an ear beating about Lennie Rosenbluth on Christmas Eve? I hope you enjoyed My Blue Christmas. If you want a more up-beat Christmas pod check out last year's Home Alone house music Christmas episode. Have a great Holiday break, everybody. Thank you for being hereYour Fav Disc Jockey,Old Saint Sickolas

This episode is a little all over the place, and honestly, that feels about right. In this solo, I'm looking back on 2025 without needing to wrap it up with a neat bow. I talk through the highs, the lows, and the emotional static that lived in the background: from moments that surprised me and filled me up to the exhaustion, uncertainty, and growth that didn't always have clear answers. I reflect on watching Sonny grow into himself, learning to slow down without losing ambition. navigating decision fatigue, and what it's been like living in the in-between, especially while moving through our surrogacy journey. This episode is about giving ourselves a permission slip to soften, protect our nervous systems, and redefine what success actually looks like when peace matters more than productivity.

TikTok just launched gift cards to compete with Amazon, Waymo robotaxis completely failed during a San Francisco blackout, and billionaires are fighting over Warner Bros in a $108 billion bidding war. This week in tech was INSANE.In this episode, Obi and Kaitlin break down three massive stories that show where technology and business are heading in 2025.WHAT WE COVER:TIKTOK GIFT CARDS - THE AMAZON KILLER?TikTok Shop just launched digital gift cards ($10-$500) with personalized animations and video messages coming in 2026. This isn't just about gifting - it's about locking users into the TikTok ecosystem the same way Amazon Prime does. After doing $500 million in Black Friday sales alone, TikTok is making the exact same play WeChat made in China: become the everything app. We break down why this matters, how it compares to Amazon and eBay, and why TikTok is going ALL IN on e-commerce while still fighting to avoid a US ban.WAYMO ROBOTAXIS BREAK DOWN IN SAN FRANCISCOOn December 20th, San Francisco had a massive blackout affecting 130,000 people. Waymo's self-driving taxis just... stopped. Middle of intersections. Blocking traffic. Over a thousand robotaxis frozen like confused puppies. We explain what actually happened (spoiler: they couldn't phone home to human operators), why this exposes a HUGE problem with autonomous vehicles at scale, and what this means for the future of self-driving cars in cities. Plus: why Elon's response was misleading and what the Challenger disaster teaches us about edge cases.PARAMOUNT VS NETFLIX: THE $108 BILLION WARNER BROS WARDavid Ellison (son of Oracle founder Larry Ellison) wants to buy Warner Bros Discovery for $108 billion. Netflix wants it for $83 billion. Warner Bros said Paramount's offer was "illusory" and didn't trust they had the money. So Larry Ellison personally guaranteed $40.4 billion of the deal - one of the biggest personal guarantees in corporate history. We break down this billionaire soap opera, explain what's actually at stake (HBO, DC Comics, Harry Potter, CNN), compare the two offers, and discuss what this means for the future of Hollywood and streaming.THE BIG PICTURE:All three stories share a common theme - ambitious technology and business moves that are impressive but fragile. TikTok's one ban away from losing everything. Waymo's one emergency away from gridlock. Paramount's one regulatory issue away from losing $108 billion. This is what happens when innovation moves faster than the systems supporting it.This is our FIRST couples episode - Obi hosts Courtside Financial, Kaitlin co-hosts and reacts.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Blair Murphy, an independent filmmaker, and his friends found themselves embarking on a journey into the unknown when they bought the Grand Midway Hotel in Windber, Pennsylvania, all thanks to a unique eBay listing. What they didn't realize was that the hotel came with more than just history—it brought with it ghosts. The Grand Midway Hotel, though no longer operating as a hotel, still plays host to restless spirits, including Martha, a young woman who tragically lost her life on the balcony during a 4th of July celebration. From unsolved murders and human bones discovered within the walls to the tragic tale of a child buried in the basement, the hotel's dark past has left a permanent mark. Adding an air of mystique, the hotel is home to two Guinness Book of World Records: the largest Ouija board on its rooftop and the world's largest Tarot card on its ceiling. Join us as we explore the terrifying and strange stories of the Grand Midway Hotel, uncovering the secrets and spirits that still linger within its walls. This is Part Two of our conversation.

A Note from James:One of my favorite conversations on this show was with Peter Thiel. Yes—PayPal, Facebook, Palantir, and a dozen other hits. I first ran this episode years ago, and the advice still holds up. The same stories, the same frameworks—and the same challenge to think from first principles. Here's Peter Thiel, one of the most influential entrepreneurs of our time. Episode Description:In this redux, James pressure-tests the core ideas from Peter Thiel's Zero to One—why competition is for losers, how real monopolies are built, and why starting “narrow” is often the only path to something huge. They cover Facebook's early moat (real identity), PayPal's network-effect wedge on eBay, and the “10x or nothing” bar for proprietary technology. Peter shares a contrarian read on bubbles, why biotech's slump may be opportunity, and how to hire, divide roles, and keep teams from fighting. The through-line: seek secrets, combine disciplines, and make something so different that it becomes its own category. What You'll Learn:How to pick markets the Zero to One way: start with a “small, winnable monopoly,” then expand in concentric circles. The four classic moats—and which to favor first: proprietary tech, network effects, economies of scale, and brand (with a bias toward real tech). A practical rule for virality vs. network effects: growth is a tactic; enduring value comes from the network that forms once users arrive. Team design that prevents internal warfare: make roles uniquely owned; if two people own the same thing, you're paying for a fight. How to hunt “secrets”: believe they exist, look where consensus is stale, and borrow from adjacent fields to see what specialists miss. Timestamped Chapters:[02:00] A Note from James — Why this conversation still ranks among the best. [03:00] Zero to One, in one line — “Do something new, different, fresh, strange.” [05:17] Competition vs. Capitalism — Why perfect competition kills profits; aim for uniqueness. [07:28] Facebook's original edge — Real identity as the breakthrough vs. MySpace's alt-persona culture. [09:14] Bits vs. Atoms — Stagnation outside software and how biology could become an information science. [12:05] Personality and perseverance — Why mild contrarian wiring helps founders ignore status games. [15:21] “10x or nothing” — The technology and/or experience must be an order of magnitude better. [17:00] Monopoly thinking, ethically done — Create abundance by creating something truly new. [23:30] The PayPal pre-history — Why long-running trust among teammates births more companies. [30:10] Early Facebook investment logic — College-only looked “small,” which was exactly the point. [32:03] Turning down $1B — The boardroom debate, optionality, and founder conviction. [36:23] Moats in practice — Picking the right advantage (and why brand alone is shaky). [37:06] Network effects ≠ virality — How value compounds after growth. [39:54] PayPal's wedge — eBay power-sellers and the $10 incentive as a growth accelerant. [41:22] Beware the “Chinese refrigerator” TAM slide — Start small, win big. [42:01] Uber vs. Airbnb — Investor bias and why some models get over- or undervalued. [44:18] Bubbles and the public — What changes across tech, housing, and today's “government bubble.” [48:00] War on cash & credit — Why Peter favors unlevered, opaque innovation over fixed income. [51:10] Biotech headwinds (and upside) — Regulation, Eroom's Law, and why sentiment can misprice breakthroughs. [53:50] Secrets — If you assume they exist, you'll be the one to find them. [57:56] Interdisciplinary bets — CS × biology; CS × transportation; why university silos miss the action. [59:51] Silicon Valley on HBO — The “Peter Gregory” caricature and what the show gets right. Additional Resources:Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future (book) — Amazon hardcover. AmazonFounders Fund — Peter Thiel profile (bio & portfolio highlights).

What does a real million-dollar offer actually look like?In this episode, Russell pulls back the curtain on a rare, behind-the-scenes breakdown of a seven-figure high-ticket offer—how it was structured, why it was created, and what makes it fundamentally different from transactional consulting or equity deals.Along the way, he shares hard-earned lessons on qualifying clients, building leverage through teams, running evergreen events, and why brand, community, and network effects are becoming the only defensible advantages in an AI-driven future.This is a masterclass in high-ticket strategy, long-term thinking, and designing offers that scale without burning out the founder.

Episode Title: "Midichlorians Before Midichlorians!" - The Sorcerer's Apprentice Novel Review - Patreon Exclusive Sample HOLIDAY GIFT TO OUR LISTENERS: The Doctor's Beard Podcast presents another special Patreon Exclusive - this time venturing beyond comics into the world of Doctor Who prose! Join John (the Apprentice) and Jim (the Sorcerer Supreme) as they discuss Christopher Bulis's The Sorcerer's Apprentice from the Virgin Missing Adventures line. JIM'S BACKYARD: "I don't know from podcasting... but a good old fashioned book is my bailiwick." Jim reveals his Doctor Who origin story: reading Target novelizations in the late 70s/early 80s (American publisher reprints with Harlan Ellison introductions stating "My Hero, Doctor Who"), then driving to Windsor, Canada with his father to find British Target editions. He sold those collections years ago and now kicks himself regularly. CHOOSING THE BOOK: Jim turned to Facebook Doctor Who groups for recommendations on First Doctor original novels. Two titles dominated suggestions: The Venusian Lullaby by Paul Leonard (First Doctor, Ian, Barbara - takes place between The Dalek Invasion of Earth and The Rescue) The Sorcerer's Apprentice by Christopher Bulis (First Doctor, Susan, Ian, Barbara - takes place between Marco Polo and The Keys of Marinus) Jim chose The Sorcerer's Apprentice because it comes chronologically first and includes Susan. The cover features the Doctor, Susan, and the TARDIS being breathed upon by a fire-breathing dragon - an actual scene from the book! THE MISSING ADVENTURES SERIES: Virgin Books received the Doctor Who license after the 1989 "rest" (not cancellation). They launched: New Adventures: Continuing Sylvester McCoy/Ace stories with ongoing character development Missing Adventures: Original novels set during the first six Doctors' eras DOCTOR WHO THE MISSING ADVENTURES: THE SORCERER'S APPRENTICE (1995) Writer: Christopher Bulis The Setup: The TARDIS lands on an Earth-like world with a stereotypical medieval setting - knights, dragons, castles, a king and queen, princess and her fiancé. But there's also real magic. The core conflict: Science versus Magic - the Doctor representing science, the world representing magic. The Twist: Outside this medieval world exists a solar system-spanning empire with spaceships and lasers. Legends and names derive from Arthurian mythology - the planet is called Elbyon (spelled differently from Albion, an old name for England). CHARACTERIZATION - NAILED IT: Jim praises Bulis for capturing the actors' voices perfectly: "I'm reading this and I'm hearing William Hartnell, William Russell, Carol Ann Ford, and Jacqueline Hill. That's what really makes this come alive." Character Rankings: The Doctor - Spot on throughout Ian - "Really strong... there's a particular way you have to have Ian talk" Susan - Well-captured, gets meaty material Barbara - Sadly underused, separated from the group early and relegated to a tangent storyline CLEVER CONTINUITY TOUCHES: Language Mystery: The Doctor and Susan speak to each other in an unidentifiable language Barbara has never heard before - a subtle nod to their alien origins without spelling it out. The Ring Returns: The Doctor's ring (featured prominently in "The Web Planet") plays a significant part in the action. Jim appreciates the callback to their ongoing discussions about when the ring matters versus when it's forgotten. Ian Learns Swordfighting: Ian explicitly states he doesn't know how to sword fight - perfectly placed between "Marco Polo" (where he wouldn't know) and "The Romans" (where he suddenly does). This novel explains where Ian learned! Susan's Difference: Brief references to Susan being "different" from the humans, reinforcing her alien nature without heavy-handedness. NO SMIRKING OR WINKING: Unlike some novelizations that project future Doctor knowledge backward, Bulis respects the 1964 timeline. Jim: "If you really want to be accurate, you have to write it from 'it's 1964 and that stuff hasn't happened yet.'" LISTENER COMPLAINTS ADDRESSED: Jim found limited online reviews, mostly negative: Splitting Up the Crew - Complaint: Early series constantly separated characters. John's defense: You couldn't fit this anywhere in the Susan timeline without that happening Stereotypical Setting - Complaint: Bulis uses standard tropes. John's defense: "We say things like that, but when somebody does something different and out of the ordinary, we criticize them for that too" Jim on fan expectations: "Obviously writers can't kill characters, have them get pregnant, lose limbs, or murder somebody... especially when they tell us exactly where these stories take place in canon timeline." AVAILABILITY: Out of print for nearly 30 years but readily available on eBay and used bookstores for around $10. Jim found both Sorcerer's Apprentice and Venusian Lullaby from American sellers at reasonable prices. JIM'S READING PLAN: Will eventually read The Venusian Lullaby, then plans to read one original novel per Doctor as the podcast progresses, soliciting recommendations from fan communities for each era.

Kris is a professional FBA seller, a podcast host and an account executive at Sellozo. Kris has always been entrepreneurial and enjoyed the thrill of selling items, from selling items at garage sales as a kid to mowing yards and then selling clothes on eBay. Kris learned how to sell physical products on Amazon in 2013, starting out by selling things around the house. He learned the basics of retail arbitrage and started sourcing his own products. Kris launched his first product in 2014 after watching YouTube videos and listening to podcasts. Currently, Kris has four brands and enjoys helping other sellers on Amazon. Kris hosts a podcast with Dustin, another seller, where they talk about industry leaders and other sellers. So welcome to the podcast today, Kris.Kris 00:00:52  That's quite the intro there. Josh. That's pretty good. I'm gonna have to take a couple notes there and kind of implement those on our own podcast. That was really good.Josh 00:01:00  Hey. Well, you have, you have a good bio yourself.Josh 00:01:03  I think that's that's why it sounds so good to you. So I want to dive in a little bit more with, how you're building that audience with insert cards. You know, we do the same thing with our brand. I don't know that I necessarily see that as, like, overly gray. I mean, you look at like a box of, you know, grab some Clorox wipes. Right. What's on the product label for Clorox wipes? it's the P&G website. Right. So like and they have like a, you know, they're not saying like, hey, come register your warranty per se, but like they have links to their social media, right? They have their icons, they have their website on there. So like I don't think people need to be as scared about that. Right. But what are you seeing working really well when it comes to product inserts?Kris 00:01:49  Well if anything good out of Covid came, it's that people were more adapted to QR codes. So people like start to they know what that is now.Kris 00:02:00  And so QR code like that just not people realize, oh I can scan that. So a QR code insert that is has some type of messaging messaging like so thank you. you know, get your free gift. there's, there's things that, that I'm doing now where, somebody scans it, they go to a landing page. in that landing page, they give name, email address, order ID number, and that just kind of verifies that the order matches with Amazon order. So we're not just getting spammed for free gift. Yeah. And they scan it and we just give a free gift out. And, all they got to do is provide us with their name and their email address. we're think about adding their mailing address there, just to kind of have that for like a backup plan to do postcards. I get a random side note here, but I bought something Amazon like literally 60 days later, I got a gift. Like a postcard in the mail. Really? How'd this? How'd this guy know to send me this postcard for another item? So, like, reverse engineering? That's kind of fun for me.Kris 00:03:07  So I'm trying to figure that out, but, Yeah, the insert scan, QR code landing page. Basic information. No first name, last name, email address, and then the order ID. we're using a tool called, It's going away from me. Zapier or Zapier, however you want to pronounce. Okay, that that, links up order IDs so that, when they type in your ID, it matches correctly with the order ID inside your account. and then from there, we send them a free sample and the free sample. You know, it's just something to, like, get them to engage with us, maybe try another product that we're thinking about launching down the road. it also just allows them to, like, feel warm and fuzzy. So maybe that when that review request does come and that that review request is done by Amazon, we're not sending any more like, hey, give us a five star review. We're just leaving it more like providing value. And whenever they get something from Amazon that says, how would you rate your experience with so-and-so brand? Maybe they think, hey, that was a good brand.Kris 00:04:06  I'll leave a five star review, so we're leaving that alone.Josh 00:04:09  So you're not even touching reviews. You're not.Kris 00:04:11  Even to touch.Josh 00:04:12  It. Yep.Kris 00:04:13  Yeah. Just leaving like just value.Josh 00:04:15  Yeah. I agree 100% with the, you know, not even touching reviews. We we've made the same decision because we have opt in flows and all of that. And everybody's like why don't you ask for a review? And it's like, I'm not even touching it with a ten foot pole.Kris 00:04:28  Because not anymore.Josh 00:04:29  That's that's the one thing that like is if Amazo...
