On this episode of And Now We Drink, Matt Slayer sits down with longtime  industry writer, reviewer, and newly minted XRCO Hall of Famer Tod Hunter for a sprawling, funny, and deeply inside-baseball conversation over bourbon. Tod brings decades of perspective from AVN, XRCO,  sets, awards rooms, and the shifting landscape of  media, offering candid thoughts on what awards still mean, how performers' careers have changed, and why the industry's legal and labor issues remain more complicated than most outsiders realize. Matt and Tod dig into the evolution of  entertainment from theatrical runs and plot-driven features to Gonzo, DVDs, streaming, OF, and today's creator economy. Along the way, they talk 2257 compliance, legal cases, performer privacy, the rise and fall of print magazines, and what makes a scene or feature genuinely stand out after thousands of reviews. The conversation also detours—gloriously—through Los Angeles history, Tommy's chili burgers, the Magic Castle, Beverly Hills trains, Mexican food debates, old-school Thomas Guides, London in the '70s, and Tod's unexpected run as both a Jeopardy contestant and writer. Equal parts industry archive, barroom storytelling, and cranky-but-charming cultural commentary, this episode is a reminder that nobody tells  industry war stories quite like someone who has been taking notes for nearly thirty years.

In Episode 205, Phil and Paul wrap up Season 14's The People Advantage series with Episode 10—the finale. Ten episodes in, they bring it all together around one core idea: alignment beats talent, every single time. Equal talent, or even a talent disadvantage, doesn't matter if your team is aligned and the other one isn't. What happens off the field always shows up on it. And since everyone stops playing the sport eventually, the real question is what lessons are actually being built into the people playing it. Phil and Paul close out the series with stories from turning around losing programs, why "safe to serve" beats "scared to survive," and why the bench matters just as much as the starting eleven. ⸻ Specifically, they discuss: Alignment Beats Talent  A program with a baseline of talent but total belief in each other can outperform teams with far more talent and no cohesion. Culture built early in a rebuild is what makes the difference years later. People First, Players Second  Identity can't be wrapped up in being a player—because coaches who only coach the player miss the person. Teams that are aligned on coaching the whole person get better performance as a byproduct. Safe to Serve, Not Scared to Survive  A team full of people who know their identity plays free instead of tense. When everyone is serving each other instead of protecting themselves, nobody is playing out of position or holding back. Role Clarity Creates Buy-In—Even on the Bench  Bench players may not like their role, but clear communication about what that role requires—and what it takes to change it—creates real buy-in instead of resentment. From Rivalry to Advocacy  A story about two teammates—one starting, one on the bench—who built a real relationship once the bench player learned what the starter was quietly struggling with. Vulnerability turned a rivalry into genuine support. Culture of Vulnerability  None of this works without walls coming down first. A team that creates space for people to be known—not just to perform—builds relationships that make everyone better. Talent Doesn't Equal Alignment  Even the most talented teams can implode without alignment. Talent gets you attention; alignment gets you results. ⸻ Key Takeaway Team alignment will beat talent every single time. It's built through people-first coaching, role clarity for every player (not just the starters), and a culture where vulnerability and service replace fear and self-protection. The lessons carry far beyond the field—these are the same things that make someone a better parent, spouse, coach, and leader long after the game is over. ⸻ This wraps Season 14's The People Advantage series. If it's resonated with you, go back through the full series with your coaching staff, your team, or your family—and share how it's shown up in your own leadership. Phil and Paul want to hear it, and it'll help shape what comes next. You can also connect with Phil through Darke Leadership Group to learn how DISC training, team alignment, and communication strategies help organizations build the kind of culture that outperforms talent alone.

Live Sep 2, 2026 | Yaron Brook Show(Season 12, Episode 141)The Meaning of 9/11—25 Years Later: Objectivism, Islamic Totalitarianism, and America's Crisis of IdeasWith Elan Journo, Onkar Ghate & Yaron BrookWhen jihadists struck on 9/11, ARI's response differed radically from those of conservatives, libertarians, and politicians of every persuasion. We argued that America faced a global ideological movement, that it needed to be defeated, but that the fundamental obstacle to U.S. victory was not a lack of military capability; it was philosophic. Unless challenged, the prevailing irrational ideas about morality would subvert the world's greatest military force.Tragically, ARI's analysis was proven correct.Join us for two events analyzing what went wrong since 9/11, illuminating the power of Objectivism, and pointing the way out.#jihad #islamism #september11th #altruism #collectivism #AynRand #IndividualRights #Objectivism #ObjectivismExplained Like this episode?Subscribe, share it with friends, and become a Patreon supporter to access monthly AMAs, exclusive content, and commercial-free audio.**The Yaron Brook Show is Sponsored by**[The Ayn Rand Institute](https://www.aynrand.org/starthere)[Energy Talking Points, featuring AlexAI, by Alex Epstein](https://alexepstein.substack.com/)[Express VPN](https://www.expressvpn.com/yaron)[Hendershott Wealth Management](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4lfC...) &(https://hendershottwealth.com/ybs/)[Michael Williams & The Defenders of Capitalism Project](https://www.DefendersOfCapitalism.com)[Support the Show]( / yaronbrookshow )[Sponsor the Show](askyaron@yaronbrookshow.com/)[One-time donation](https://bit.ly/2RZOyJJ)Join the [Yaron Brook Show YouTube channel]( / @yaronbrook )Like what you hear?

What if the thing you are most proud of in your business is also the thing quietly draining it?Amanda Signorelli and Nick McMillan took over the Golden Steer in 2019, the oldest steakhouse in Las Vegas, open since 1958. Neither of them came from restaurants. They came from tech, inherited a brand with more history than margin, and had exactly one year to learn the business before COVID shut it down.In this conversation, we get into why they rebuilt the financial model from scratch instead of fixing the old one, why none of us have any business running their own social media, and the lessons learned growing the brand to new markets.If you are sitting on a brand people love and numbers that do not work, this one is for you.To learn more about Golden Steer, visit goldensteer.com._________________________________________________________Free 5-Day Restaurant Marketing Masterclass – This is a live training where you'll learn the exact campaigns Josh has built and tested in real restaurants to attract new guests, increase visit frequency, and generate sales on demand.

Send us Fan MailClinical psychologist and New York Times bestselling author Dr. Shefali joins Skin Anarchy to talk about conscious parenting: why emotional regulation starts with the parent, how mothers pass down beauty standards, and the blueprints for raising sons and daughters.Who is Dr. Shefali?A clinical psychologist and bestselling author who pioneered conscious parenting 16 years ago with her 2010 book The Conscious Parent, blending Western psychology with Eastern philosophy. "Children are undergoing the most acute mental health crisis of modern times, and parents are unknowingly messing it up."Why does emotional regulation start with the parent?Because the trigger is internal, not external. Dr. Shefali says children surface the exact feelings a parent was never allowed to feel in their own childhood. "It's not her who's unhinging me. I am unhinged." Real regulation means building an inner stability a delayed flight or a defiant toddler cannot knock off its axis.What kind of self awareness actually creates change?The kind that admits something must change. Knowing your favorite color is surface level; the harder work is accepting your own imperfection. "Most people don't want to change at that level... they want the other person in their life to change."How do mothers pass down beauty standards to daughters?Often unknowingly, by absorbing a narrow ideal themselves. Dr. Shefali traces it to what she calls "a white, skinny, rich female standard," which mothers internalize and hand down. Daughters absorb it whether or not a parent intends to, which is why she urges mothers to change the script first.How do you prepare a child for racism or comparison?By arming them early, before culture does the damage. She recommends teaching a child directly that people may judge their eyes, skin, or hair, then dismantling it with simple logic. "You begin to arm her... with an awareness that people are going to tell her, you don't look like the standard." She shares her own decades long work to undo an inherited belief that being Indian meant inferior.How should you raise a son?By honoring how boys are wired. Dr. Shefali describes boys as physical creatures who process through action, not words, and who need to feel purposeful. "If you want him to be regulated, let him move... give him a purpose." Unspent energy, she warns, can later erupt as aggression.What are the pillars of raising a conscious son?Seven, anchored by a few essentials: boys express physically, feel as deeply as girls, need purpose, need a male tribe, need guidance into healthy sexuality, and must be held accountable. "If boys learn to be accountable, they will grow up to be accountable men."Why do some cultures prefer sons?Partly biology, partly the lower cost placed on boys. Dr. Shefali notes the pressure many women face, especially in Indian culture, to produce a son. Wanting a boy to the exclusion of a girl, she says, is "a very rigid... primitive way of looking at life," since every seed still needs a female body to nurture it.How do you raise a daughter beyond her looks?By refusing to make appearance her identity. Dr. Shefali coupled her own identity to her looks after years of validation, and deliberately taught her daughter otherwise. "How you look is the least interesting part of you," she tells parents, pointing instead toward kindness, integrity, and hard work.Should we raise boys and girls exactly the same?She favors equity over identical treatment. Boys and girls are profoundly different in wiring, and denying that helps no one. "We should not want to ever be like a man. We should only want to be treated humanly." Equal in humanity, she argues, without pretending the differences do not exist.Listen to the full episode with Dr. Shefali on Skin Anarchy, available wherever you get your podcasts.Visit Dr. Shefali's website and pre-order her new books!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!Support the show

Our text today is 1 Peter 3:7: Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered. — 1 Peter 3:7 Most husbands genuinely want to love their wives well. They may not always know how, but the desire is there. How do I lead without controlling? How do I love her in a way she actually experiences as love? Why does it sometimes feel like we're speaking different languages? Peter answers all those questions in one verse. And it's worth remembering who Peter is. This is the same Peter who often spoke before he thought. The same Peter who overpromised and underdelivered. The same Peter who denied Jesus and then experienced the restoring grace of Christ. Tradition tells us Peter was married and may have struggled with these same issues. Don't forget Jesus healed Peter's mother-in-law of a high fever. (Matthew 8:14-15; Mark 1:29-31; Luke 4:38-39) Peter isn't writing theory here about human relationships in marriage. He's writing wisdom shaped by failure, maturity, and grace. He says, "Husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way." Literally, the phrase means: "According to knowledge." In other words, learn her. Study her. Pay attention to her. Just like you learned how to do your job. Just like you learned the rules of the sports you love. Just like you learned the hobbies and interests that matter to you. So husbands out there, have you learned her? Do you know what brings her joy? What discourages her? What causes her anxiety? What makes her feel safe, loved, and valued? Strong marriages aren't built on assumptions about your wife. They're built on understanding about her. Peter continues: "Showing honor to the woman..." Culture often teaches men to demand honor. Peter tells husbands to give it. Honor means treating someone as precious. It means listening before speaking. It means serving before being served. It means using your strength to build up rather than tear down. Then Peter adds a final exhortation that was revolutionary for his day: "Since they are heirs with you of the grace of life." In a world that often diminished women, Peter elevated them. Your wife is not spiritually inferior. She is your sister in Christ. You are her brother. She stands beside you before the throne of grace with the same Savior, the same inheritance, and the same eternal worth. Different roles. Different design. Equal value. Peter's reference to the "weaker vessel" isn't permission to exploit weakness or assert superiority. Most naturally, he is acknowledging physical vulnerability and the social realities women faced in the first century. His point is simple. Use your strength to protect. Use your strength to serve. Use your strength to honor. Then Peter ends with a sobering warning: "So that your prayers may not be hindered." How you treat your wife affects your fellowship with God. You cannot consistently dishonor the woman God has entrusted to you while expecting intimacy with Him. Strong men don't use their strength to get their way. They use it to serve. They listen before they speak. They honor before they demand honor. They protect instead of overpower. And they remember that the wife beside them is not beneath them. She is their sister in Christ, their partner in grace, and one of God's greatest gifts. Husbands, go listen to your wife today and look for some way to honor her, encourage her, and serve her before this day is over. DO THIS: Ask your wife one thoughtful question today and truly listen to her answer. Look for one practical way to honor, encourage, or serve her before the day is over. ASK THIS: How well do I really understand my wife? In what ways do I honor her with my words and actions? Is there anything in our relationship that may be hindering my fellowship with God? PRAY THIS: Father, thank You for the gift of marriage. Teach me to use my strength the way Christ used His—to serve, protect, and honor. Help me understand my wife more deeply and love her more faithfully. May my relationship with her reflect Your grace and bring You glory. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Goodness of God."

Treating your pets fairly doesn't mean treating them all the same.In this episode, Amy looks at how age, health, mobility, personality, behavior, and even personal preferences can mean very different needs for pets living under the same roof. From secret extra meals for a skinny senior cat to different exercise, rules, accommodations, and attention, the goal isn't perfect equality. It's paying attention to the individual animal in front of you.And this isn't just for people with a houseful of animals. Whether you have one pet or six, it's about recognizing what that pet needs instead of comparing them to other animals or even to who they used to be.She also tackles a harder question: Are you giving your pet what they actually enjoy and need, or trying to turn them into the pet you imagined having?Plus, try this week's simple Pet Parent Hotline challenge to learn something new about your own pet.Stuck on a pet problem?

In part two of the all-viewer-question edition of The Wrap, Chris Whalen and Julia tackle everything from gold confiscation to credit union safety. Chris argues that a 1933-style seizure is possible in a debt crisis, since heavy government borrowing effectively encumbers every asset in the country, and that offshore physical gold is the only real protection. He explains why rising gold prices pressure the Treasury and gradually erode the dollar's role as the world's medium of exchange, drawing parallels to the monetary fragmentation of post-Roman Europe that he's been researching for his upcoming book. Along the way he critiques Jerome Powell for extending QE long after credit spreads normalized in 2020, pushes back on fears of a boomer-driven market selloff, breaks down how Annaly Capital actually makes money, flags private-credit takeovers of insurance companies as a genuine risk to annuity holders, and shares his own portfolio split. He closes with thoughts on land value taxes, the likelihood of a US VAT, and life in Florida versus New York.Thank you to our sponsor, Monetary Metals.

When a broken heart turns into a blueprint, one woman can quietly change the fate of thousands. In this episode, Christine sits down with Sister Lucy Kurien, the visionary founder of Maher (“Mother's Home”), an interfaith, caste-free network of homes for women, children, and men in India. Called to ServeSister Lucy Kurien was born in 1956 in Kolayad, Kannur District, Kerala, India. After several years of formal education, at age 14 she moved to Mumbai, where she was profoundly distressed by the appalling poverty and squalor in the city. Having carried a strong inner desire for justice since childhood, she felt a deep calling to make a difference in the lives of the poor and famished around her. In 1980, she joined Sisters of the Cross, a religious order. It was a difficult decision that meant giving up the bliss of an independent and free life. After 4 years of training, she was professed to the order.The Birth of MaherSister Lucy started Maher activities in a small home in Vadhu Budruk, near Bhima Koregaon on the Ahmednagar highway. Her tireless efforts and the work of the dedicated staff led to the expansion of Maher activities to nearby areas. These include the villages in Shirur, Haveli and Khed talukas, as well as the city of Ratnagiri, Miraj & Satara in Maharashtra. Beyond Maharashtra, Maher has established homes in Kerala, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Karnataka, Bihar and Andhra Pradesh. In 2011, unable to ignore the plight of abandoned men on the streets, Maher opened its first home for destitute, aged, and mentally challenged men. Today Maher reaches the life of the poorest of the poor through as many as 25 different outreach projects, including 672 village self-help groups and 75 interfaith, caste-free homes that currently shelter 996 children and 292 men and over 798 destitute women. Since its founding, Maher has provided care and shelter for more than 6200 children, 6,500 women, and 850 men.In this conversation, you'll hear how Sister Lucy transforms heartbreak into practical compassion—turning love into food, shelter, education, mental health care, and long-term dignity.Press play to hear Sister Lucy's extraordinary story and what it truly means to be “the medicine and refuge” in a hurting world—and if her work moves you, please donate to Maher.

Jerome Theunis was a golf pro himself — a Challenge Tour player who represented Belgium in the World Cup — before he became one of the most sought-after (and quietly under-the-radar) coaches in the game. It started with his roommate on tour, a young Nico Colsaerts, who got sick of finding golf technique books in the bathroom and Sharpie diagrams on the hotel TV. "I think you're pure psycho," Nico told him. A few years later Colsaerts was in the Ryder Cup, and Jerome had found his calling.Since then he's worked behind the scenes with players like Adrian Meronk and Thomas Detry. In this episode, Jerome unpacks the parts of coaching nobody puts in a swing manual: why he flies across the world to consult other coaches on his own players — and why Sean Foley called that "the biggest proof of trust" a coach can give; the four things that actually happen when you bring in outside expertise, and why it almost never backfires; the concept of "novelty salience," and the parking-lot debrief with a PGA Tour player that ran 50 minutes over because reframing one piece of technical data changed everything; why touching a tour player's technique "de-skills" them — and how Tiger Woods rebuilt his swing three times without ever disappearing from leaderboards; the grip Jerome refused to fix on a world number 11, because some flaws are load-bearing; Randy Smith's audacious fix for a player who "swings it beautiful" but couldn't close — shaping shots on Sunday, from a 50-yard slice down to dead straight; and why Jerome believes storytelling and emotional framing — not swing data — are the one thing AI won't be coaching any time soon.Equal parts skill-acquisition deep dive and behind-the-curtain look at how tour-level trust actually gets built, this is a conversation for anyone who coaches, teaches, or just wants to understand why the best in the world can shoot 65 on a course that's "long, tight, and high rough" and make it look easy.

The Micah Mobilizers wrestle with the question: when does naming evil become a prophetic act, and when does it become dehumanizing rhetoric? Scripture itself is full of fierce language for confronting injustice—from the prophets' warnings to Jesus's “brood of vipers.” So how do we distinguish righteous naming from destructive name-calling? What does it look like to confront the evil work of oppressors while still honoring the humanity of every person?Visit micahgroups.org to learn how to join one of our Micah Groups starting September 29.

AP records the same voice through four very different microphones and sends the files around without revealing what they are. George, Robert, Robbo and a bunch of trusted audio ears rank them purely on what they hear. Then the mics are revealed. The result is a pretty good reminder that price, reputation and specifications only tell you so much. What matters is how a microphone actually sounds on the voice and for the job you need it to do. And just to make the point beautifully, Robbo put the overall winner dead last. LIBSYN FULL DESCRIPTION It's time to Guess That Mic. AP started out making a sample of one microphone for someone. As tends to happen around here, that simple job turned into four microphones, multiple preamps, a pile of audio files and a blind listening test involving ten people. The idea was simple. Listen to four mystery microphones on AP's voice. Don't worry about the badge, the price or what you think you're supposed to like. Just rank them. The result? Almost nobody agreed. George liked 3, 4, 2, 1. Robert went 4, 3, 2, 1. Robbo went 2, 1, 4, 3. And the more people AP asked, the more interesting the results became. Once all ten votes were scored, the final result was: 1st, Mic 3, 27 points Equal 2nd, Mic 2, 25 points Equal 2nd, Mic 4, 25 points 4th, Mic 1, 23 points So what were they? THE BIG REVEAL Mic 1 Microtech Gefell M 92.1 S tube condenser with M7 capsule Recorded through a Grace m101 Mic 2 Microtech Gefell M 930 art Mic 3 Austrian Audio OC818 Mic 4 AKG C414 EB with nylon CK12 capsule Mics 2, 3 and 4 were recorded through a Neve 1073. No processing or high pass filtering was deliberately added to the comparison. And yes, the Austrian Audio OC818 won the overall vote. Robbo ranked it last. Which rather neatly sums up the entire episode. This was never intended to be a scientific microphone test. It was about something arguably more useful, what happens when people actually listen without knowing the name or price printed on the microphone. A mic one person describes as smooth and full, someone else hears as dark. One person hears useful presence, someone else hears too much top end. One listener's first choice becomes another listener's fourth. HOW EVERYONE VOTED George Whittam: 3, 4, 2, 1 Robert Marshall: 4, 3, 2, 1 Robbo: 2, 1, 4, 3 Chris Gates: 2, 3, 4, 1 Simon Murphy: 1, 2, 4, 3 AJ: 4, 3, 2, 1 Matt McKenzie Smith: 3, 4, 2, 1 Paul Baxter: 3, 1, 2, 4 Matty from Sonic Playground: 1, 2, 3, 4 Mike Aiton: 1, 4, 3, 2 MORE COMMENTS FROM THE SHOOTOUT Mike Aiton Mic 1: Sounds really good. Not over hyped anywhere with a good natural midrange. Mike guessed it might be a 416 and picked it as his favourite "by a country mile". Mic 2: Sibilant around 7.5 kHz, less lower mids and consequently less full sounding. Definitely not Mike's cup of tea. Mic 3: Subdued top end with a very full bottom end. Mike wondered whether it might be a ribbon. Mic 4: Mike thought this sounded like a TLM 103, noting the bass lift and saying he would probably reduce some of that for AP's voice. Matt McKenzie Smith Mic 1: Matt heard harmonic resonances around 470 Hz and 980 Hz, plus some additional energy around 2.5 kHz. Mic 2: "Sounds lovely", with a little more prominence around the 4 to 5 kHz area. Mic 3: Hotter in the low end and sounding great, although Matt noticed a prominent phase offset. Mic 4: Similar phase offset, along with great low end extension. Matt's final ranking was: 3, 4, 2, 1 And perhaps that is the real conclusion of the whole exercise. There isn't a microphone that everybody is going to prefer. The expensive one isn't automatically better. The one with the flattering frequency response on paper isn't automatically better. And a microphone that sounds gorgeous solo might not necessarily be the one you'd choose when that voice has to fight its way through a commercial mix. Pick the microphone that works for your voice and your job. What a bloody novel concept. Thanks to Tri Booth and Austrian Audio. Recorded using Source Connect. Edited by Andrew Peters.

This episode features a conversation with Justino Tesoro and Jesse Ayala about their new show, Marlise! The Musical! We also had a very special guest: Katie Emerson who plays Marlise herself. It's 1954, and Hollywood star Marlise Mattox has been framed for murder, live on television at the Oscars. The only person who believes she is innocent is Arnold Berman, an obsessive superfan and studio prop-room assistant. After bailing Marlise out of jail, Arnold pulls her into a madcap investigation through backlots, biblical epics, and film-noir shadows. Along the way: flipping Pharaohs, biblical tap numbers, buried Hollywood secrets, and a robot on skates. Equal parts love letter to and loving spoof of Hollywood's Golden Age, Marlise! follows one fallen movie star and her greatest fan as they attempt to solve a murder, and film her comeback at the same time. This episode features demo recordings of the songs “The Greatest Movie” performed by Justino Tesoro, Brandon Scott Grayson, and Isa Peña, as well as “Marlise's Lament” performed by Justino Tesoro.

In this episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, Nick and Amy dive into the critical connection between mutual respect and sexual intimacy in marriage. While it is common for husbands to seek greater physical connection and wives to crave emotional connection, a lack of respect often creates a disconnect that impacts both areas. We emphasize that a passionate, fulfilling intimate life is built on a foundation of daily respect, teamwork, and intentional effort.They outline 10 practical ways couples can demonstrate respect to strengthen their bond, cultivate trust, and ultimately improve their intimate relationship:Speak Kindly During Conflict: Maintain a smooth tone and avoid yelling or lashing out when frustrated to ensure your spouse feels safe opening up.Listen Without Immediate Defense: Resist the urge to interrupt, assign blame, or jump straight to self-defense when your partner shares their feelings.Speak Well of Your Spouse Publicly: Protect your partner's dignity by avoiding criticism, snarky comments, or making them the punchline of a joke in front of others.Keep Your Promises: Build trust by following through on both major commitments and everyday requests.Respect Their Time and Energy: Share the mental load and household responsibilities as equal partners rather than letting one person burn out.Include Them in Important Decisions: Approach life and marriage as a unified team rather than making key choices independently.Respect Personal Boundaries: Honor your spouse's need for personal space, self-care, or time away without taking it personally.Protect Their Dignity in Arguments: Avoid name-calling, threats, or bringing up past mistakes that have already been healed and forgiven.Show Affection and Appreciation: Consistently offer non-sexual physical touch, warm greetings, and verbal appreciation to make your spouse feel valued.Choose Your Spouse Publicly and Privately: Maintain complete loyalty and integrity in your actions, attention, and online habits, ensuring your partner feels prioritized above all else.By actively treating marriage as something deeply valuable, prioritizing each other's emotional and physical needs, and putting in daily work, couples can eliminate resentment and cultivate a thriving, intimate relationship.

Time in does not equate to produced results.    Here's what most people do.   They start working in their profession for 6 months and 10 years later, the only thing they have is repeating the same thing they learned in the first 6 months of their career.    They stop growing.    I go to the gym with people who have been going to the gym for 8 years and are still fat and out of shape.    Sure, they still make it to the gym, but they have not ascended to learning more, eating better, and getting in better shape 8 years later.    That's what most people do.    I have a young lady that works on my finance team and she's been working in her field for 2 years, but has done more for me in the last 6 months than those I've hired in the past with 20 years experience.    It's because she is learning and growing herself in her profession every single day.   So, before you work with someone who claims to have 10, 15, 20 years experience, have them take you through every element of their journey in their profession and ask for the receipts.      About the ReWire Podcast   The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

Balance does not mean giving everything the same amount of time, attention, or resources. Not everything is of equal priority or necessity, so treating everything equally can actually keep you from giving enough to the things that matter most. Real balance is about allocating your resources according to priority and necessity. Your priorities change as your circumstances change, and the goal is to make sure your resources match your objectives instead of trying to make everything equal. Show Notes: [02:47]#1 Equal distribution creates mediocrity. [07:27]#2 Priorities change with circumstances. [15:04]#3 Balance is about alignment, not symmetry. [17:26] Recap Next Steps: --- Execution is not a talent.   It is a standard. If your results don't match your ability, something in your approach is out of alignment. Most people do not have a motivation problem.   They have a consistency problem. Power Presence is the system for operating with greater discipline, clarity, structure, and execution under pressure.

This recent Equal to the Apostles was born in Mega Dendron (Great Tree) in Aetolia. He became a monk on Mt Athos, where he lived and prayed for many years. But he was troubled by the ignorance of the Gospel that had fallen on many of the Orthodox people, living under the oppression of the Ottoman Turks. He went to Constantinople, where he studied the rhetorical arts and received the blessing of Patriarch Seraphim II to preach the Gospel. He travelled throughout Greece, Macedonia, Serbia and Albania, preaching at every town he visited. Often not only Greeks but many Muslims would come to hear him, so great was his reputation for holiness. Though he always sought the blessing of the local bishop and the local Turkish governor before he preached in an area, his strong condemnations of dishonest business practices aroused the enmity of Orthodox Christian and Jewish merchants, who falsely accused him to the authorities. He was strangled by the Turks and thrown into a river in Albania, but his wonderworking relics were preserved. He reposed at the age of sixty-five.

In this episode of the Punisher Waterfowl Podcast, the crew sits down with Jaden Bankes for a lively, unapologetic conversation about duck hunting culture, big-water rigs, Long Point history, and the obsession that drives waterfowl hunters. From the legacy of Banks Boats to the realities of layout hunting on rough water, the discussion dives into the gear, traditions, and debates that define the sport. The conversation gets candid and entertaining as the guys share opinions on overrated gear, band hunting, camo, decoys, lanyards, and what really matters in the field. Along the way, they swap stories about dangerous conditions, legendary hunts, and the kind of hunters who always seem to be in the right place at the right time. Equal parts funny, opinionated, and full of hard-earned waterfowl wisdom, this episode is a must-listen for anyone who loves ducks, boats, and the stories that come with chasing them.

Live Aug 23, 2026(Yaron & Nikos Dialogues, Episode 11)Patrick Deneen & The Post Liberal Right | Yaron & Nikos DialoguesPatrick Deneen says liberalism failed because it succeeded — freedom gave people too much of it, and now he wants a new elite to rule in the name of the "common good." Is that a critique of the West, or the oldest excuse for tyranny wearing a Notre Dame faculty badge?Patrick Deneen says America needs "regime change" — not at the ballot box, but a quiet takeover by a new elite who'll rule for the "common good" instead of individual rights. He calls it postliberalism. Yaron Brook calls it what it actually is: aristocracy with a syllabus.Deneen's bestselling books — Why Liberalism Failed and Regime Change — have become the intellectual bible of the post-liberal right, blurbed by Obama, quoted by JD Vance, cited by the "common good conservatives" reshaping the GOP. His argument: individual freedom itself is the disease. The cure is a ruling class willing to override your choices for the sake of the collective.In this episode of Yaron & Nikos Dialogues, Yaron Brook and Nikos Sotirakopoulos take Deneen's ideas apart line by line — where "common good" politics actually leads, why every attack on individualism ends up defending the same thing (power over you), and why the post-liberal right and the woke left are closer than either side wants to admit. If you've heard people say liberalism "went too far," this episode explains exactly what they mean — and why they're wrong.Main Topics: 00:00 — Cold open: what "regime change" actually means in Deneen's own words 06:30 — Who is Patrick Deneen, and why did Obama put him on a reading list? 15:00 — "Liberalism failed because it succeeded" — unpacking the core claim 26:00 — The "common good" con: how collectivism always smuggles itself in through a nice-sounding phrase 38:00 — Aristopopulism: Deneen's plan for a new elite to rule over the "many" 50:00 — Is this Catholic integralism with a populist paint job? 1:02:00 — Where the post-liberal right and the woke left secretly agreeLive Audience Questions: 1:14:00 — Is Deneen just describing real problems badly, or is his solution the actual danger? 1:20:30 — Does JD Vance actually believe this stuff, or is he just borrowing the vocabulary? 1:27:00 — Can a "new elite" ever rule for anyone but itself? 1:34:00 — Is national conservatism just socialism with incense and a flag? 1:41:00 — What's the actual liberal (classical) answer to the loneliness and rootlessness Deneen describes?

Live August 21, 2026  | Yaron Brook Show(Season 12, Episode 141)Stanford Lets a Socialist Define Capitalism -- Answering Chiara Cordelli | Yaron Brook ShowWatch Now: https://youtube.com/live/RdW7wmHwW6wA political philosopher stood in front of Stanford students and told them capitalism's real sin isn't exploitation — it's that free people get to decide their own future without asking permission first. Nobody in that room challenged her. Yaron Brook does.Chiara Cordelli says the "wrong" of capitalism isn't profit, isn't inequality, isn't even exploitation — it's that private investors, not the collective, get to decide what the future looks like. Her fix? Democratize investment. Plan it. Take that decision out of your hands and put it in the state's.Yaron Brook takes her argument apart at the root: capitalism was never an "investment system," it's a rights system — the first social order in human history built on the principle that force has no place between people. Cordelli isn't describing a flaw in capitalism. She's describing the thing that makes it moral, and she wants it gone.If you've ever wondered how elite universities keep producing "sophisticated" cases for socialism dressed up in academic language, this is the episode that shows you the trick — and the answer.Timestamps 00:00 — Cold open: Why a Stanford philosopher's "critique" of capitalism is really an argument for central planning 06:30 — What capitalism actually is — and why markets and competition aren't it 14:15 — Cordelli's real claim: capitalism "alienates" you from control over the future 23:40 — The switch — "alienation" is just exploitation with a Ph.D. 32:10 — Why "democratizing investment" means putting a gun behind every business decision 41:00 — Individual rights vs. collective control: the actual fight nobody at Stanford will name 50:25 — How elite academia launders socialism as "normative political theory" 

Jordan and Nate pre record this one but still pack in plenty, starting with RFK's ongoing Real Food Show and a genuinely fascinating podcast episode with a very deaf Lou Ferrigno on ditching diet culture for good. From there they dig into Trump's pick for FDA commissioner, Dr. Heidi Overton, and why her ties to the recent childhood vaccine executive order have some old guard MAHA voices nervous. The big one this week is Fauci's longtime NIAID advisor pleading guilty to a federal conspiracy involving hidden COVID records, with ties back to Eco Health Alliance and the gain of function money trail. They also break down a new FDA rule closing a decades old food safety loophole, debate a splashy Moderna and Merck mRNA cancer vaccine, and wrap with a genuinely thoughtful conversation about the federal roadless rule and what it means for wildfire management out west. Equal parts hard news and honest back and forth between friends.

Live August 20, 2026  | Yaron Brook Show(Season 12, Episode 140)Econ War; N.Korea; Ukraine; Army; DataCenters; Interest; Buy Elections; Rogan; AI | Yaron Brook ShowIs North Korea's economy booming because communism finally works — or because it's selling dead soldiers to Putin by the truckload, and Washington is too busy gutting its own Navy and juicing the AI boom to notice the world is quietly rearranging itself around America?North Korea's economy is booming — and it has nothing to do with communism working. It's an arms factory for a dying Russian war machine, and Yaron Brook breaks down exactly how that racket works, why it collapses the day the Ukraine war ends, and why nobody in Washington is paying attention.That's just the opening. Today Yaron rips into the Treasury's dangerous game of swapping long-term debt for short-term debt to dodge high interest rates, explains why ripping the guts out of America's military readiness is a five-alarm strategic error, and calls out the billionaire-bashing "buy an election" narrative for the lie it is. Plus: the data center backlash that's really a war on prosperity, whether AI is capitalism's greatest proof of concept or its next moral panic, and a hard look at the ideas floating around in Rogan-world.If you think economics, war, and technology are separate conversations, this episode will change your mind. Reason. Individual rights. Capitalism. No exceptions.

In this episode of Better Call Daddy, host Reena Friedman Watts sits down with Kiko Zang, business executive, tech founder, and opinion leader building human-centric consumer products. Kiko is the Founder & CEO of Chomp, a social game that rewards honesty instead of punishing it and she's on a mission to fix what she calls the "performative internet." Kiko opens up about her path from boarding school in China to New Zealand and the United States, the anti-authoritarian streak she carried as a kid, and the long road to understanding her own identity across cultures. The conversation gets candid as she discusses her experience with open relationships and how it reshaped her views on love, trust, kindness, and loyalty then turns to the bigger picture: why social media rewards performance over authenticity, why women in particular self-censor online, and why honest human belief may be the scarcest, most valuable data in the age of AI. Kiko also shares her founder journey from COO at Orca (one of Solana's largest decentralized exchanges, where she helped raise $19M and grow the platform to $1B+ in 24-hour trading volume) to building Chomp, which drew 50,000 beta users sharing millions of honest answers and raised $3.6M from backers including BlueYard, JSquare, and Accomplice placing her among the 2% of female-led startups to raise venture capital. Chomp launches on iOS in 2026. Equal parts personal memoir and founder story, this episode covers identity, relationships, resilience, the loneliness epidemic, the funding gap for female founders, and what it takes to build something real in a "dead internet" full of bots and AI slop. Keywords: Kiko Zang, boarding school identity, open relationships podcast, cultural identity, female tech founder, women in venture capital, social media and authenticity, dead internet theory, Chomp app, Solana Orca DEX, honest opinions app, read the room, loneliness epidemic, Better Call Daddy podcast, Reena Friedman Watts

What do you do when ten years of building your own brokerage leaves you completely burned out? On this episode, I sit down with Sam Basel, a real estate agent in Estes Park, Colorado, since 2002 who spent a decade running his own boutique brokerage, Alpine Legacy, before hitting a wall. Sam walks me through how he pulled himself out of it with a 365-day streak of pushups, situps, and treadmill miles, then took his family on a three-month RV trip through 48 states to reset. We get into why he shut down the brokerage and moved to eXp, how a fifteen-year-old monthly newsletter still drives business in his small mountain market, and the framework he now uses to decide whether he's chasing revenue, profit, or freedom in any part of his business. If you've ever felt like your business owns your time instead of the other way around, this conversation is for you.Key Topics Covered:* Sam Basel's path from solo agent in 2002 to running his own boutique brokerage, Alpine Legacy, for ten years* The burnout that came from building and running his own brokerage, and the 365-day pushup, situp, and treadmill streak that helped pull him out of it* Taking a three-month RV sabbatical across 48 states with his family before restarting his business* Why he closed Alpine Legacy, moved to eXp, and started coaching with John Kitchens* The fifteen-year-old monthly newsletter (about a 40 percent open rate) that still drives business in his small mountain market, built around five property price tiers plus “best buys” and “eye candy” content* Running a lean, solo-agent model supported by three assistants instead of building out a big team* The real bottleneck most agents face: trading time for dollars* The “Revenue, Profit, or Freedom” framework — the only three things a business ever actually builds toward* His one-to-many approach to attracting other agents* The “Plus, Minus, Equal” mentorship framework, borrowed from Frank Shamrock's MMA studio“You're either building toward revenue, profit, or freedom.

Meanwhile Washington now owns equity stakes in 31 private companies. Is this still capitalism, or is it something else wearing capitalism's face?America's most dangerous problem this week isn't a foreign enemy — it's Washington deciding it knows better than physics, markets, and 250 years of naval engineering. Yaron breaks down Trump's order to gut electromagnetic catapults off new aircraft carriers in favor of steam (yes, really), why the U.S. will have zero carriers in the Western Pacific for the first time in memory, and how the government quietly took equity stakes in 31 companies — from Intel to nuclear power to quantum computing — with no vote from Congress. Yaron also hits Josh Shapiro's war on AI data centers, a pointless border wall through Big Bend National Park, Israel's strike near Turkey's doorstep, a Democratic Socialist's shocking Florida primary win, Sweden's capitalist pivot, and real human achievement in the fight against cancer.If you think tariffs, government equity, and industrial nostalgia are "America First," you need to hear the actual math.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 1:36 – The Treasury's dangerous bond-swap shell game 8:15 – Data center backlash: America's new Luddism 26:40 – The U.S. Navy's steam-catapult disaster 48:20 – Washington now owns pieces of 31 companies.

Is economic self-harm now the plan?"Trump just invoked Smoot-Hawley-era authority to hit Canada with 50% tariffs — an ally, not an enemy, retaliating against tariffs we started. Nobody wins. Everybody pays.Today: Meta faces a $1 trillion lawsuit trying to make it liable for your kid's phone habits. ABC sues the FCC and I'm fully on their side. A Russian court just gave an opposition politician 11 years for a tweet — still think Putin's the good guy? The debt hit $40 trillion early, 30-year yields are at 2007 levels, and nobody in DC will say "spending cuts." Plus China's AI, a wild antitrust probe into a16z, and the best-hidden good news of the year: crime and even NYC rats are falling.Timestamps: 1:50 – Trump's 50% Canada tariffs: has a tariff threat ever worked? 9:54 – Should Canada just quit negotiating and go free trade? 13:08 – Meta's $1 trillion lawsuit: who's really responsible for kids' phones? 21:54 – ABC vs. FCC: is Carr running a First Amendment shakedown? 24:47 – Russia jails a politician for 11 years over a tweet 35:15 – Debt hits $40T early — what happens when interest beats the Pentagon budget? 50:24 – Only 13% of fund managers beat the market — so why pay them? 1:00:48 – DOJ antitrust probe hits Trump's own VC allies 1:06:56 – Crime is at generational lows — so why does everyone think it's chaos?

Her first year in corporate. She noticed her male peer was getting more technical work than her. She raised it with her supervisor — not loudly, not aggressively, just directly. Instead of addressing it with her, the supervisor took it to a broader forum and told others there was "a trouble candidate in the team." The message filtered back to her. She had asked for fair treatment and had been labeled a problem for it. What happened next is what makes the story worth hearing. A senior leader stepped in, routed someone to talk to her properly, understood what she actually needed, and gave her a product certification project. She suspected it was a test. She treated it like an opportunity. She delivered. That quarter, she won a company excellence award. Aditi is Managing Director at Accenture's Cloud First Data and AI Group, where she leads digital transformation for large clients. She has been called outspoken — a label she has never apologized for — and decisive, a word she noticed women rarely claim for themselves. In this episode she gets specific about what it actually looks like to speak up when you're new, when the reception is hostile, and when the outcome is uncertain. You'll hear: Why being labeled "trouble" for asking a fair question was the moment that taught her the most about how organizations actually work — and why she considers the outcome a net positive even though it was uncomfortable to live through. What she did when a senior client contact told her directly "I don't think you even know this stuff." She didn't react. She absorbed it, reported it proactively to her leadership before it could reach them filtered through someone else, and stayed focused on delivery. What she learned about the difference between reacting and responding. Why outspokenness without data is just noise — and why outspokenness backed by facts, research, and conviction is one of the most useful things a leader can bring to a team. How she creates conditions for her own team members to speak up — and why, when she opens a conversation by sharing her own honest view first, she consistently finds that people who had something to say but were waiting for permission start talking. What "decisive" actually means in practice when you're managing a team with competing voices, a client with high expectations, and no time to wait for perfect information. About Aditi: Managing Director, Accenture Cloud First Data and AI Group. Digital transformation leader.

What does that tell you about this presidency?"Trump escaped a plane he thought Iran was going to shoot down — by hiding in an airline food cart. His Secretary of State stayed on the "decoy." His former caddy didn't. I break down why this story is both hilarious and terrifying, and why the same week Qatar quietly became the single largest foreign funder of American universities — bigger than AIPAC could ever dream of — nobody in Washington is talking about it.Then: Tucker Carlson didn't just insult Ben Shapiro this week. He ran a textbook antisemitic conspiracy theory — "an employee," "somehow got into Harvard," "represents larger interests" — dressed up as media criticism. And Shapiro's response proves why appeasing evil only feeds it.Plus: Zohran Mamdani hasn't taken office yet and Manhattan rent already hit an all-time high of $6,655/month. Rent control is working exactly as economics predicts — just not the way Mamdani promised. I also debunk the data-center land panic, show you exactly which companies got billion-dollar tariff refunds (proof Americans, not foreigners, pay the tax), and close with a medical drone that saved a man's life in Sweden before the ambulance even arrived.TIMESTAMPS 0:00 – Cold open: the Iran assassination plot and Trump's food-cart escape 2:53 – Inside the getaway: catering carts, decoy jets, and who Trump chose to save 9:26 – Why the whole "decoy" story doesn't add up 18:12 – Qatar's $6.6 billion capture of American universities — bigger than AIPAC, and nobody's talking about it ~25:00 – Tucker Carlson's "employee" smear of Ben Shapiro, decoded line by line ~38:49 – The "somehow got into Harvard" line and why it's classic antisemitic conspiracism ~45:00 – Why Ben Shapiro's refusal to call Tucker evil makes Tucker stronger ~52:00 – The Gen Z "$20 burrito" myth — and why Gen Z is the richest generation in history ~58:00 – Mamdani hasn't taken office and Manhattan rent already hit $6,655/month ~1:05:00 – Rent control 101: why 57,000 rent-stabilized apartments sit empty ~1:09:00 – Data-center land panic vs. the actual math (hint: corn subsidies dwarf it) 1:16:43 – The tariff refund list: Apple got $2.2B back — proof you paid the tax 1:23:10 – Human Achievement: the drone that restarted a man's heart before the ambulance arrivedLive audience questions are answered throughout the stream on Tucker/Shapiro, the Iran assassination plot, and rent control — drop yours in the chat next time we go live.Watch now: https://youtube.com/live/9JkNes9Te6M#TuckerCarlson #BenShapiro #maga #trump #iran #Antisemitism #QatarInfluence #RentControl #TariffsAreTaxes #nycrentals  #Capitalism #Objectivism #ForeignPolicy #FreeMarkets #AynRandLike this episode?Subscribe, share it with friends, and become a Patreon supporter to access monthly AMAs, exclusive content, and commercial-free audio.The Yaron Brook Show is Sponsored by[The Ayn Rand Institute](https://www.aynrand.org/starthere)[Energy Talking Points, featuring AlexAI, by Alex Epstein](https://alexepstein.substack.com/)[Express VPN](https://www.expressvpn.com/yaron)[Hendershott Wealth Management](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4lfC...) &(https://hendershottwealth.com/ybs/)[Michael Williams & The Defenders of Capitalism Project](https://www.DefendersOfCapitalism.com)[Support the Show]( / yaronbrookshow )[Sponsor the Show](askyaron@yaronbrookshow.com/)[One-time donation](https://bit.ly/2RZOyJJ)Join the [Yaron Brook Show YouTube channel]( / @yaronbrook )Like what you hear?

Bigfoot week continues. Shipwreck welcomes Adrian from Rise Attire, who traded streetwear design for building Sasquatch Nations, an original video game rooted in real cryptid encounter stories. They swap theories on whether Sasquatch, the Giant of Kandahar, and dogman are all separate species or branches of the same mystery, dig into the Sasquatch Genome Project's unexplained DNA results, and preview the game's cinematic trailer and lore, including the guardians of the borderlands and a treaty between humans and something far older. There is also a detour into Nessie drone footage, portals in the deep woods you should never walk up the stairs toward, and a genuinely fed up rant about Lindsey Graham's sister taking his Senate seat. Equal parts cryptid convention and culture war venting, with plenty of heart underneath the chaos.

Iran just told Trump: reopen Hormuz on our terms, or it stays shut forever. Who's actually calling the shots?Mark Zuckerberg published a 6,500-word AI manifesto today that doesn't beg government to save the world from his own product — a first for Silicon Valley. In this episode, Yaron breaks down why that's a genuine breath of fresh air, and the one line buried in it that undercuts the whole thing.Then: Iran believes it holds every card in this war, and it's hard to argue they're wrong. 440.9 kg of 60%-enriched uranium — enough for ten bombs — is unaccounted for. The Strait of Hormuz is still closed. Tehran is studying North Korea's playbook, not Libya's.Plus: hackers just hit water systems in 12 states, Lockheed is blocking Ukraine from building its own Patriot missiles, why Yaron actually likes video gamers running air traffic control towers, and a live audience Q&A on values, justice, and how to actually think straight in a chaotic world.⏱ Timestamps0:00 — Weekend recap + Friday's Odyssey review2:20 — Does Tucker run in 2028, or does he back JD Vance?4:55 — Zuckerberg's AI manifesto: the good, the bad, and the government-sized hole in it29:51 — "Iran has all the cards, Trump has none" — how did we get here?50:08 — The two things that actually matter for US national security right now56:49 — America's munitions crisis: can we even fight the next war?1:05:06 — Gaza's stalemate and why Netanyahu has to go1:07:42 — Cyberattacks hit water systems in 12 states — is Iran behind it?1:07:50 — The economy nobody trusts: Americans are traveling more than ever1:22:48 — Gamers are now running air traffic control.

It's time for EPISODE 4 OF THE WHAT TO COOK SHOW!!And because it's PUB WEEK (!!!!!), today's recipe is from the 15-minute chapter of Make It Fast! But I wanted to make it a little bit more show-off-y, so we're leveling the recipe up in a few different ways, using the “Extra Extra” notes from the cookbook — AKA the tips that will teach you how to make the recipe a little extra!In this BBQ chicken and peach chop, we're going to double the dressing and use half of it as a marinade for our chicken. We're then going to grill that chicken along with fresh corn on the cob and peaches. AND we're going to let the black beans marinate in the salad dressing for a bit, infusing them with flavor. The full recipe along with the inspo for this salad, how this version compares to the one in the book, and all the usual notes and substitutions will be in your inbox tomorrow.Want in on the full recipe? Upgrade to a paid subscription now so that it lands in your inbox bright and early tomorrow!!!I love this salad so much. The whole video crew LOVED THIS SALAD SO MUCH. We absolutely inhaled it!!!! I hope you'll cook it this weekend and let me know if you love it, too!Links and more info for a few things I chat about in the show: * The Earthbound Farms greens I used * I am literally obsessed with Cometeer. Yes, they sponsored this show. But y'all, IT'S SO GOOD. I have become an evangelist. I had 10 people over for breakfast the other day and instead of making a pot of coffee, I made each of them a cup of Cometeer so that we could discuss it. I drink a hot coffee every morning, and I make an iced half-caff latte every afternoon. It is the best, best, best — trust me, you must try it. * Here's my no-hangover marg recipe: Equal parts lime juice and tequila plus half part orange juice. For a single marg that breaks down to: 1/4 cup lime juice + 1/4 cup tequila + 2 or 3 tablespoons orange juice. Add ice and shake the heck out of it. It's tart!!! Add simple syrup (I prefer it over agave) if you need it a little sweeter.* Car/breakfast meatball recipe — find it near the bottom of that post* BBQ chicken meatballs, broccoli, and tomatoes with cheesy rice* Five ingredients I always have in my house: Canned beans, boneless, skinless chicken thighs, Duke's mayonnaise, white cheddar cheese (ideally Unexpected Cheddar from TJ's), and honey. What are yours?!Click here to watch this episode on Youtube or Youtube TV!Tell me if you watched the episode! Did you learn anything? Favorite part? Mine is when Jess clearly thought the salad dressing was too tart LOL. I loved making this show and I want to keep doing it — let me know what you think! I'll send someone who comments my favorite gigantic wooden salad bowl!This series is sponsored by my actual obsession, Cometeer! Cometeer works with some of the best roasters from all over the world — including Onyx, Intelligentsia, Counter Culture and Black & White from my home state of North Carolina. There are so many different coffees on their menu, all brewed to perfection and flash-frozen so you can make hot or iced coffee just by melting it. I love rotating through different roast levels and flavor profiles. They also have a ton of great half-caff and decaf options, so I can have an iced latte as an afternoon pick-me-up without then being up all night.
