Jared sits down with comedian, friend, and world-class sh*t talker Jay Jurden, fresh off his new Hulu special “Yes Ma'am.” They get into what a special should really be in 2024, why joke-dense hours matter, and how comics are secretly puzzle nerds fitting together bits from tweets, clips, and crowd moments. Jay explains his philosophy on crowd work, why some comics are basically filming infomercials instead of shows, and what it means to actually respect the people who work all day, then pay to watch you work. Then things get delightfully unhinged as they break down queer sexting etiquette, AI booty, real ass on God's green earth, and why we might need to regulate tech just to protect Miami poolside content. Jared closes with their games “Expand on That” and “Talk Shit or Get Bit,” letting Jay riff on Kim K as a lawyer, shorter days, and Thanksgiving, all while reminding you to go watch “Yes Ma'am” on Hulu !Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/JTRAIN and use code JTRAIN and get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup!

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the White House's growing anxiety over the economy, the nationwide crackdown on illegal migrant truck drivers, new DHS surges into sanctuary cities, the rise of openly socialist leadership on the West Coast, and escalating tensions with China in the Pacific. White House Softens Tariffs as Prices Rise: President Trump acknowledged that tariffs may be affecting consumers and announced lower rates on coffee, beef, bananas, and other staples. Prices have soared due to weather, crop disease, and global demand rather than tariffs alone. Bryan explains that the cuts signal the administration's concern that working families are still struggling and that midterm voters may blame the GOP if the economy does not improve soon. Families Fear the Cost of Children: A new American Family Survey found that seventy percent of Americans believe raising kids has become too expensive. Bryan warns that this trend threatens the nation's future and highlights the connection between economic strain and family planning decisions. Crackdown on Unsafe Migrant Truck Drivers: The White House pressured California to revoke seventeen thousand driver's licenses issued to migrants who often cannot read English or safely operate heavy trucks. Some judges in Washington blocked the rule on procedural grounds, creating legal limbo. Bryan notes that until courts rule, untrained foreign drivers will remain on American highways. DHS Surge Operations Expand: Federal officers have flooded Charlotte, North Carolina, where one in five residents is foreign born. The move mirrors earlier crackdowns in Chicago, Portland, Los Angeles, and Washington, where crime dropped after DHS deployments. Bryan says New Orleans is next. Catholic Bishops Clash with the White House: The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops accused the administration of racism and fearmongering. Border czar Tom Homan responded that securing the border saves lives and that the Church should focus on its own scandals. Socialists Rise in Seattle and Los Angeles: Seattle elected an openly socialist mayor who supports abolishing the police under a communist economic system. In Los Angeles, another socialist candidate is challenging Mayor Karen Bass. Bryan connects these victories to a wider ideological battle inside the Democratic Party, where figures like Obama and Clinton now embrace democratic socialism while voices like Bill Maher warn against it. Democrats Plan Supreme Court Expansion: Longtime strategist James Carville confirmed that the party intends to expand the Supreme Court to thirteen justices once Democrats regain the presidency and Congress. He expects the party to remove the filibuster for that purpose, declaring the fight against Trump a national emergency. GOP Infighting Grows: Trump attacked Representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie over comments about Epstein files and personal issues. Bryan urges conservatives to stop the internal battles as socialist movements gain ground nationwide. China Leverages Rare Earths and Military Power: Beijing is delaying rare earth shipments and failed to buy U.S. soybeans despite promises. A shortage of yttrium is emerging, although a U.S. company in Indiana will begin refining it next month. Meanwhile, China sent Coast Guard ships into Japanese waters and unveiled a new aircraft carrier, signaling rising tensions in the Pacific. Trump's Narco-Terror Operation Continues: Another drug boat was destroyed in the Pacific under Operation Southern Spear. Critics in the U.K. claim the strikes violate international law, though the White House says cartels qualify as narco-terrorists and legitimate targets. Britain's Leader Shifts Right on Immigration: Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced sweeping new restrictions, ending cash allowances for asylum seekers, requiring work, and imposing twenty-year waits for permanent residency. Bryan notes the political pressure building across Europe as voters demand tougher borders. Saudi Crown Prince to Visit Washington: The White House may sell F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia, though U.S. intelligence fears technology theft and regional imbalance with Israel. Economic deals may also emerge as Riyadh seeks to follow through on earlier promises. Good News from Southeast Asia: Trump brokered a fresh ceasefire between Thailand and Cambodia after border clashes. Cambodia is moving closer to the United States, granting new access to a key naval base and pushing out Chinese crime networks.

HOW TO BUILD MORE COURAGE FOR BITCOIN & MSTR — AND CONQUER MARKET VOLATILITY,Courage isn't something you read in a book. Courage is a muscle. You build it. You tear it. You rebuild it stronger. Bitcoin and MSTR aren't just assets — they're arenas. Colosseums. And every tick up, every dip down, every violent red candle is a test of your internal steel. This isn't for the faint of heart. This is for the few who dare to step into the storm and turn it into fuel.Volatility is not the enemy. Volatility is the path. Volatility is the price of admission into the kingdom of exponential upside. A world where asymmetric bets become asymmetric gains. A world where patience, conviction, and courage become your competitive edge.Courage is built in the dark. Courage is built in those moments when fear screams “SELL!” and your deeper wisdom whispers, “HOLD THE LINE.” Courage is not bravado — courage is clarity. Courage is understanding that Bitcoin is digitally scarce, mathematically finite, geopolitically inevitable. Courage is knowing that MSTR is the lever, the multiplier, the amplified exposure to the greatest monetary revolution of our lifetime.You build courage by studying the truth: Bitcoin has no CEO, no board, no dilution, no quarterly earnings hangovers. Meanwhile MSTR has engineered itself into a Bitcoin acquisition machine — a digital vacuum cleaner sucking up the scarcest monetary asset in human history. Why fear what is fundamentally unstoppable?Every moment of panic is someone else's liquidation — but it does not have to be yours.To conquer market volatility, you must first conquer the volatility within yourself. Most humans crumble because they have no inner architecture. Their emotions are untrained wild dogs. But you? You train your mind like your body — repetition, stress inoculation, extreme exposure. The more chaos you can handle internally, the more wealth you can command externally.Volatility becomes courage when you zoom out.Volatility becomes beauty when you see the bigger arc.Volatility becomes profit when you stop reacting and start observing.The game is simple:Hold stronger than everyone who sells.Think longer than everyone who panics.Accumulate while everyone else doubts.Markets don't reward intelligence — they reward emotional mastery. Markets don't reward the loud — they reward the patient. Markets don't reward the frantic — they reward the unshakeable.You conquer volatility by loving it.You conquer volatility by expecting it.You conquer volatility by dancing with it like fire.Every red candle is a test.Every green candle is a gift.Every sideways chop is a meditation.Bitcoin is the apex asset.MSTR is the leveraged spear.And your courage is the ignition.Because in the end, the volatility is not what destroys people — it's their own indecision. Their fear. Their ego. Their lack of long-term vision. But you? You are building an empire. You are building generational power. You are training your mind to become stronger than the storm.So build your courage daily:Expose yourself to uncertainty.Study the fundamentals.Strengthen your convictions.Expand your time horizons.The world belongs to those who can stomach volatility and stay standing.You are not merely surviving this game — you are dominating it.You are not reacting — you are strategically ascending.You are not afraid — you are becoming anti-fragile.Bitcoin will test you.MSTR will amplify you.Volatility will forge you.And at the end of this psychological gauntlet, only one thing remains:A stronger, wealthier, more unstoppable version of you — the one who refused to break.
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi on Friday unveiled plans to increase financial aid from summer levels to lower household electricity and gas bills this winter.
Today's guest is Bill Smart. Bill is a sport scientist and physical preparation coach specializing in elite fight-sports performance. As the founder of Smarter Performance and the Strength & Conditioning lead for the CORE MMA team, Bill integrates cutting-edge evidence with real-world high-performance systems to enable combat athletes to show up on fight day in optimal physiological condition. Much of the conversation in sports performance hinges on speed and power development, or conditioning, as a stand-alone conversation. Sport itself is dynamic and combines elements of speed, strength, and endurance in a dynamic space. Training should follow the same considerations to be truly alive and effective. In the episode, Bill shares his journey from cycling and rowing to combat sports. He discusses how long isometric holds develop both physical and mental resilience, and their implementation in his programming. The conversation dives into muscle-oxygen dynamics, integrating ISOs with conditioning, and how testing shapes his approach. Bill also explores flywheel eccentrics, fascicle-length development, and why sprinting is a key element for maintaining elastic power in elite fighters.

Watch athletes move in multiple contexts before prescribing anything. Look for how they transition between patterns, not only the end positions. Use video less for judgment and more for curiosity. What is the athlete trying to do? 11:35 – Identifying limiting factors Athletes plateau when coaches overemphasize one metric or capacity while ignoring the real constraint. Look beyond the weight room; technical or psychological factors often drive plateaus. Use minimal testing data to narrow focus rather than justify complexity. Sometimes the limiting factor is overcoaching. Let athletes fail and self-correct. 20:42 – Strength that transfers Transfer happens when strength work complements, not competes with, the sport's rhythm and intent. Prioritize strength that preserves elasticity and timing rather than just force output. Rotate exercises often enough to keep athletes adaptive, but not so often that they lose rhythm. Load movement patterns, not just muscles. Treat every lift as coordination under resistance. 30:01 – Variability and play in training Bill describes play as a teaching tool that restores creativity and problem-solving in athletes. Use small games, uneven surfaces, or timing constraints to build adaptable movers. Variability should be purposeful. Expand coordination bandwidth without losing technical intent. Schedule “uncoached” time in sessions where athletes explore movement freely. 40:36 – Coaching communication and connection Great coaching depends on trust and empathy before information transfer.

When Waymo robotaxis first rolled out onto San Francisco streets in 2021, people were skeptical. But less than five years later, Waymos are popular – a new poll finds local support at 67% – though still polarizing. A San Francisco Supervisor is advocating to allow counties to decide whether they are allowed on their roads. As Waymo extends their service this week to San Jose and Bay Area highways, we'll talk with those for and against Waymo expansion. And we'll look at the future of autonomous vehicles as new competition looks to enter the market.

Matt leads the marketplace at right side up. Matt has over 12 years of selling experience. He's launched and sold multiple personal brands, all starting from a retail arbitrage budget. Four years ago, he started an agency right Side up to help high growth CPG brands focus on dominating the marketplace. They've been able to scale many brands from 0 to 3 million in monthly sales. Welcome to the podcast, Matt.Matt 00:00:29 Thanks for having me. Josh, how are you doing?Josh 00:00:31 Doing great. What are some of the key things that you, you advise or recommend when launching a brand new product on Amazon that are working today? Because, as you know, a lot of those black hat tactics, you know, have come and gone. you also have the, you know, the rebates that everybody was doing, and now it's kind of leveled the playing field a little bit more. Tell me what you're doing that's been working for you guys.Matt 00:00:55 Yeah. So first off, I think that the biggest thing is making sure you have a big enough budget to launch your products.Matt 00:01:02 like the days of 5 to $10,000 budgets to launch products are just gone in my eyes, at least in the spaces that I work in. so we usually overestimate our budgets by like 20 to 30% of what we actually think it would be just to make sure that we're in a good place in case it doesn't go the way that we want it to. but outside of that, we're looking for a couple of major things. one is we want to see continued growth in the category. Amazon's making that way easier now with like the search query reports, the product Opportunity Explorer. There's so many internal tools that they're giving you access to now that you can really easily find that. And then the other big thing that we're looking for is categories that you've got maybe like 3 or 4 power players in. And by power players they aren't really doing that much. They're still kind of growing, but they're ahead of like the other 20 items there. really it just kind of is showing us that, hey, there's enough sales to go around.Matt 00:02:01 If these four people can all kind of be around the same and customers really don't care which one they're choosing right now, they're just basically picking whichever ones at the top from what we can see. So yeah, we used to go into very heavy like categories where you would just, I mean, like launches would be half 1 million to $1 million. Wow. and if you could make them work. Yeah. The payback is amazing because of the volume that some of those categories do. But if you lose, like, it absolutely sucks. so for sure, what we're looking at like 50 to $75,000, to launch a product right now and the supplement space that we're kind of going after, and we've seen it, it's kind of the sweet spot for everything. so if we do find a product and we think it's going to cost more than that to actually launch it, we'll hold off for a bit and see if we can find some other ones that are within our kind of thresholds.Josh 00:02:53 That makes sense.Josh 00:02:54 So how do you estimate, you know, that budget, right. What's the difference between a half 1 million to $1 million product launch budget versus something that's 50 to $75,000? And how do you estimate that?Matt 00:03:07 Yeah. So the the biggest thing is ads. I mean, we've really in the last like three months, all of our launches have been almost exclusively on Amazon through Amazon Ads. so we're pulling averages of cost per clicks through the advertising API and really just looking at, okay, what is the conversion rate of the top products? If we wanted to spend to get that conversion rate on that keyword, like what would it cost us per day and working that backwards? the other big thing that I don't know anyone else that's kind of touched on this, but what we what we've been doing here recently is we have a seller account where we'll create the product beforehand. It's not the product that we're actually going to sell. We'll put some items as merchant fulfilled, and then we'll just have ourselves by the products.Matt 00:03:54 So that way we get all the search query report data for that product before we actually launch it.Josh 00:03:58 Oh, that's that's fascinating. So you do that in a separate account then? Is that what you're saying?Matt 00:04:03 We've been doing it in the same account, just like a different brand name. and throw up a listing merchant fulfilled and do a couple buys through it, and then you get all that data.Josh 00:04:14 Intere...

In this session, Athina Krol reveals the sacred art of Isis Sexual Alchemy, a feminine, devotional path of divine union, and how it differs from modern Sex Magick practices. This session takes you into the ancient Egyptian mystery schools where sexual energy wasn't used for external manifestation or desire, it was a sacred alchemy of creation, purification, and divine remembrance. You'll understand why these teachings were suppressed, how they are being reawakened through the Priestess lineages, and how to begin reclaiming this sacred power within your own body. Athina shares how sexual alchemy works as a process of inner transformation, activating the heart–womb current, purifying ancestral imprints, and aligning your sexual energy with divine service. This is not about manipulation of energy, it's about becoming the vessel for the frequency of Ma'at: truth, integrity, and cosmic harmony. We Cover •Understand the true purpose of sexual alchemy as taught in the Isis Temples, inner union, remembrance, and service to the Divine. •Learn how modern Sex Magick focuses on external manifestation, while Isis Alchemy refines energy inward for spiritual awakening. •Explore how the feminine body is already the temple, designed to channel and hold divine frequencies. •Discover the importance of purification, activation, and heart–womb alignment as the foundation of sacred sexuality. •Uncover how trauma, lineage wounds, and energetic imprints can block your creative power, and how to clear them. •Remember that true power flows through Ma'at, truth, harmony, and divine integrity. •Reconnect to your divine feminine energy as a current of creation, healing, and abundance. Ready to walk the Priestess Path? Join the Isis Ka Practitioner Program to awaken your Ka body, clear deep energetic imprints, and embody your divine feminine power. Learn more here.

Open conversations about gender and identity are more pervasive than ever. Policies impacting gender identity and transgender youth dominate the headlines and ballots. How can parents really guide our kids through big questions about who they are and who others are, with openness instead of fear?Jeanette Jennings, president and cofounder of the Trans Kids Purple Rainbow Foundation — and mom to trans activist Jazz Jennings — shares how her family learned to listen, adapt, and lead with love as Jazz discovered her identity. Later, developmental and clinical psychologist Dr. Diane Ehrensaft helps parents understand what gender is (and isn't), why it matters, and how to start these conversations at home. Key takeaways for parents:Every child has a gender story. As parents, it's our job to listen to their story.Talk openly about gender to build empathy and confidence for everyone.Establish as a family what support and allyship looks like for you.Expand our own understandings of sex, gender, gender expression, and sexuality to have conversations about it. Being tolerant is not the same as being welcome.⏱️ Timestamps:Follow Jeanette Jennings on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeanette_jennings_Follow Dr. Diane Ehrensaft on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ucsfchildrens/New episodes every Tuesday:YouTube: https://swap.fm/l/P8iCjNFnIWI7kTmU0vmkApple: https://swap.fm/l/kCnCRNdWkpuYYbyzyE77Spotify: https://swap.fm/l/SOQe4gSHh3vVIwPGFDetOr wherever you get your podcasts.

In this episode, Brian Miller and Chad Hall unpack one of the most practical frameworks for growing a coaching practice — drawn from Acts 1:8 and the idea of starting in "Jerusalem" (the people who already know, like, and trust you) before moving outward to "Judea," "Samaria," and "the ends of the earth." Through stories, examples, and coaching wisdom, they explore why so many coaches try to start in Samaria — with websites and strangers — instead of the relationships that already surround them. The conversation blends biblical insight with business strategy, helping listeners reframe how they think about client development and confidence building. Key Highlights The "Jerusalem–Judea–Samaria–Ends of the Earth" model provides a spiritual and strategic roadmap for building a coaching practice. Many new coaches mistakenly try to market to strangers (Samaria) instead of starting with those who already know and trust them (Jerusalem). Confidence grows naturally when you start with low-hanging fruit — people ready and willing to engage — rather than high-hanging, resistant prospects. A handful of "champions" in your life want you to succeed and are eager to open doors, but you have to be willing to ask for help. Building a network takes time and humility — and knowing where you're starting is essential to making sustainable progress. Takeaways Start in your Jerusalem. Focus first on people who already know, like, and trust you. These are the relationships most ready to bear fruit. Ask for help. Don't rob your champions of the blessing of supporting you. They want to help — and connecting you is often their joy. Build confidence through success. Each small win strengthens your confidence and credibility, preparing you for larger opportunities. Be clear and courageous. Tell people you're getting started and invite them to partner with you — at least one will likely say yes. Expand outward intentionally. As your network and experience grow, let your influence move naturally from Jerusalem to Judea to Samaria, rather than leaping ahead.

A sex toy is so much more than just a fun gadget. Toys can help us to explore our bodies, rekindle the connection in a relationship, improve sexual communication, and more. In this episode, we’re going behind the scenes of how sex toys are designed and developed. We’re also going to talk about what makes a toy truly great, as well as how to tell which toys are worth your money and which ones aren't. I am joined by Venus O'Hara, a pleasure educator, author, and content creator. She became Spain's first professional sex toy tester, and since 2014 has tested and reviewed over 1,000 products from leading sexual wellness brands worldwide. She is the author of Orgasmic Manifestation and hosts the podcast, The Orgasmic Lifestyle. Some of the specific areas we explore in this show include: What does it mean to view sex toys as experiences rather than products? What all goes into designing and developing a new sex toy? How can you tell the good sex toys from the bad? In what ways can sex toys help us to improve our sex lives? Learn more about Venus by checking out her website here. Got a sex question?

As the seasons change, I've been reminded how deeply nature reflects our own inner cycles. In this episode of The Couragecast, I'm sharing what it means to slow down, go inward, and trust your own timing — especially when everything in you wants to keep moving forward. This conversation is about the power of reflection and alignment — how allowing yourself to pause and reconnect with your natural rhythm creates space for true spiritual growth and expansion. I'll be sharing what this has looked like for me personally, as I've been moving through a new season in both life and business, and how making more space for the spiritual is shaping everything I create. If you've been feeling called to rest, release, or realign, this episode will help you remember that your next level of abundance and clarity doesn't come from doing more — it comes from listening inward and trusting what's meant for you. In this episode, I share: How the change of seasons mirror our own inner transformation The importance of slowing down before stepping into something new How to stay in alignment with what's truly meant for you Why reflection and rest can actually create greater expansion How I'm personally embracing this season of change.

Ever feel like you're working harder than ever but not actually getting closer to freedom? Most entrepreneurs chase revenue, not realizing they're building a business that traps them instead of freeing them. So, how do you create a business that gives you freedom, fortune, and fulfillment without burning out? The answer lies in building a business moat.In this solo episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I dive into a game-changing framework I learned from Cody Sanchez, a New York Times bestselling author, CEO of Contrarian Thinking, and serial entrepreneur who's on a mission to help one million people achieve financial freedom through business ownership. Cody is known for buying “boring” businesses—laundromats, car washes, service companies and turning them into cash-flowing machines. Her secret? The M.O.A.T. Strategy, a simple yet powerful system to protect your business, your time, and your peace.Here's the gist: M.O.A.T. stands for Margin, Operations, Advantage, and Total Addressable Market. It's all about creating a competitive barrier around your business so that competitors stay out, cash keeps flowing in, and you build a fortress of freedom. Let's unpack a few powerful takeaways that you can apply right now.Margin matters most.If your business isn't profitable, it's fragile. Cody's rule of thumb is to buy or build businesses that cash flow on day one. So, audit your margins—are you charging enough for your time and talent? Sometimes the simplest solution is raising your prices.Systematize or suffer.Your business should run without you. That's the true test of freedom. Start documenting tasks you've done more than three times, then delegate them. Freedom lives in frameworks, my friend—if it's repeatable, automate or outsource it.Identify your unfair advantage.Your edge might be your brand, your relationships, your humor, or your community. Double down on what makes you you. Competitors can copy your strategy, but they can't replicate your soul.Know your market size.If you're playing too small, you're capping your growth. Expand your total addressable market—how many people can your product or service actually help? Think bigger.Do a quarterly M.O.A.T. audit.Rate yourself 1–10 in each of the four areas: Margin, Operations, Advantage, and Market. Find your lowest score and make that your next focus. It's a simple way to plug holes before your business springs a leak.This episode is all about working happier and smarter, not harder. Whether you're running a $100K business or a $100M empire, the MOAT strategy helps you protect your profits, your peace, and your purpose.If you're ready to build your own fortress of freedom, tune in to the full episode and start happy hustlin' your way toward that life of balance, passion, and positive impact.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

In this episode of the Truth From The Stand podcast, I sit down with my buddy Chad Sylvester to break down what it takes to level up. We dig into his recent trip to Idaho—a hunt that didn't exactly go as planned but came loaded with lessons that stick. We talk about when to double down on what you do best and when to push past your comfort zone to grow as a hunter. From understanding terrain-specific deer behavior to balancing specialization with adaptability, this one's all about the mental side of the game—how you think, adjust, and evolve season after season. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 464 Mastering your whitetail hunt requires a diverse toolkit and adaptable mindset. Specialization builds confidence but can narrow your perspective. Chad's Idaho hunt delivered hard-earned lessons and real-world insights. Micro-terrain and historical data hold the keys to consistent deer encounters. Familiarity bias can stall growth—explore new ground and learn from it. Listening to what the hunt tells you is often more valuable than any plan.

The Trump administration has launched one of the biggest leadership shake-ups in U.S. immigration history — replacing half of the top Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials with Border Patrol veterans. Reports say frustration inside the White House over slow deportation numbers — and a push to integrate more militarized Border Patrol tactics into ICE's operations. Critics warn it's a step toward a nationalized deportation force. Independent media has never been more important.
