Husbands have two main callings that require intentional effort: marriage and business. Failing in either area causes failure in the other.  __________ Matthew 22:36–38 GW, 1 John 5:3 KJV, Hebrews 12:1 KJV, Matthew 22:39–40 GW, 1 Corinthians 7:33 KJV, 1 Peter 3:7 KJV, Ephesians 5:25 KJV, John 4:34 KJV, Genesis 3:6 KJV, Genesis 2:16–17 KJV, Genesis 2:24 KJV, 1 Timothy 2:14 KJV __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________    

Super Performance   From Firefighting to Super Performance: How Systems Free You From…   Most owners secretly know the truth: their business only runs well when they're watching. The minute they step away, problems surface, customers get frustrated, and the "superhero" has to swoop back in. In this Richer Soul episode, operations coach and author George Pesansky shares how to escape that trap by building systems that work without you — so your business performs at a high level and your life gets a lot richer in the process.   Key Insights:  Vision, Strategy, and Execution must align because most businesses fail not from lack of effort, but from excelling at only two of the three while true profit and scale happen when all three work together.  The "golden hour" reveals your best systems, and instead of constantly fixing what's broken, real growth comes from identifying when work flows smoothly and replicating those conditions across the day. The Dunning–Kruger Effect explains why leaders get blindsided, as overconfidence on "Mount Stupid" often hides gaps in operations, people, or finance until painful failure forces real learning. Superhero employees are a warning sign, not a strength, because when a business depends on one person to fix everything, it signals fragile systems, hidden waste, and serious key-person risk. Money is stored time, not success, and many leaders stay trapped in the prison of expectations by chasing revenue instead of using profit to reclaim freedom, focus, and a life outside the business. Failing faster accelerates growth, because waiting for certainty keeps owners stuck in broken processes and bad decisions that intentional learning and rapid experimentation would quickly replace.   Money Learning from George: George reframes money as nothing more than "an equivalent for time," a tool meant to buy back space for rest, creativity, and meaningful living—not fuel an endless treadmill of effort. He warns that many owners chase revenue that actually costs them time and increases friction, while true profit comes from building systems that give you your life back. His core message is simple: use money to create freedom, not pressure, and focus on investments that return time, clarity, and peace rather than more stress.   Key Takeaway: High performance isn't about working harder; it's about building systems that turn your best moments into your normal day. When you understand the real root causes of success, stop relying on superheroes, and use money to buy back time, your business stops owning you — and starts serving the life you actually want.   Bio: George Pesansky is a seasoned expert in operational excellence, with a career spanning over three decades in leadership, executive coaching, and performance optimization. His passion lies in empowering individuals and organizations to reach their full potential through clarity, focus, and actionable strategies. George's commitment to improving outcomes and his strategic, action-oriented mindset have made him a sought-after consultant and thought leader in the field. His work continues to inspire and guide those seeking to elevate their performance and achieve superperformance in their personal and professional lives. George is also the founder of Capacity2Care, a nonprofit organization dedicated to encouraging superperformers to donate their talent, not just their time, to create better outcomes in their communities by driving deliberate improvement in charities.   Links: www.myblendedlearning.com    LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deliberateimprovement/   If you're ready to move from firefighting to true super performance in your business — with clear numbers, better systems, and more time for the rest of your life — let's talk.

Kevin Carr is an author, educator, and co-owner of multiple fitness businesses and brands, including Mike Boyle Strength and Conditioning (MBSC) and the Certified Functional Strength Coach (CFSC) certification.In this episode, Kevin joins Andrew Coates to have a candid conversation about the state of the fitness industry—and why, despite unprecedented access to gyms, information, and technology, the overall return on investment for public health remains shockingly poor.Rather than blaming individuals, Kevin explores the structural, cultural, and experiential barriers that prevent people from engaging in fitness long-term, while also highlighting the renewed importance of in-person coaching, community, and practical strength training as we age.In this episode, Kevin shares insight on:• Why massive investment in fitness has produced minimal population-level health outcomes• Why only 1 in 4 Americans have a gym membership—and why half quit within six months• Common misconceptions about gyms and why many people find them intimidating• How environment and culture shape whether people stay active or drop out• The importance of community and support for long-term fitness adherence• Why aging is not just an “old person's problem”• The idea of “aging milestones” where people quietly stop sprinting, jumping, or playing• Underrated movement qualities that matter more as we age• Why in-person coaching and gym attendance are seeing a resurgence• Practical approaches to reducing injury risk through smarter training• Why experience often matters more than credentials in coaching• And much moreCHAPTERS01:16 Fitness Industry Challenges02:38 Making Fitness More Accessible05:19 Creating a Welcoming Gym Environment15:04 The Importance of Community in Fitness23:53 Parental Expectations in Youth Sports29:28 Strength and Conditioning for Career Longevity34:32 The Impact of Modern Strength and Conditioning on Athletes35:52 Athletes Advocating for Their Health and Longevity37:13 Exercise Selection and Execution40:56 Injury Prevention and the Benefits of Strength Training42:18 The Importance of Lifelong Fitness48:37 Personal Reflections on Fitness and Longevity50:39 The Value of Practical Experience in Coaching01:02:58 Upcoming Events and ResourcesSUPPORT THE SHOWIf this episode helped you, you can help me by:• Subscribing and checking out more episodes• Sharing it on social media (tag me — I'll respond)• Sending it to a friend who's trying to stay strong, active, and engaged long-termFOLLOW ANDREW COATESInstagram: @andrewcoatesfitnesshttps://www.andrewcoatesfitness.comPARTNERS AND RESOURCESRP Strength App (use code COATESRP)https://www.rpstrength.com/coatesJust Bite Me Meals (use code ANDREWCOATESFITNESS for 10% off)https://justbitememeals.com/MacrosFirst – FREE Premium TrialDownload MacrosFirst → During setup, answer “How did you hear about us?”Type: ANDREWKNKG Bags (15% off)https://www.knkg.com/Andrew59676Versa Gripps (discount link)https://www.versagripps.com/andrewcoatesTRAINHEROIC – FREE 90-Day Trial (2 steps)Go to: https://www.trainheroic.com/liftfreeReply to the email you receive (or email trials@trainheroic.com) and let them know Andrew sent you

Joanna Coles revisits her most eye-opening conversations with Dr. John Gartner, a leading expert who says the media has ignored the most urgent question about Donald Trump: his mental and physical health. From alarming changes in Trump's language, gait, and impulse control to warnings about paranoia, narcissism, and cognitive decline, the doctor lays out why these signs matter far beyond one man. As Trump's influence endures, this episode asks whether the real danger lies in what he can no longer hide—and what the country is still refusing to confront. Hosted on Acast.

Cold glue can be a powerful tool — but only if you actually understand what's happening during the pull. In this episode of the Tactical Dent Tech Podcast, I break down the real reasons cold glue pulls fail, what most techs misunderstand, and how small adjustments can completely change your results. This isn't theory. This is real-world PDR experience from the hail lanes, retail work, and years of trial and error. In this episode, we cover: Why cold glue isn't magic (and why it fails for so many techs) Common mistakes that kill your pulls before they even start When cold glue makes sense — and when it absolutely doesn't How to think about tension, timing, and panel response The mindset shift that separates average techs from elite ones If you're frustrated with cold glue, this episode will save you time, money, and a lot of unnecessary experimenting.

Let's talk about failing your goals.Because if I'm being honest, I've fallen short on almost every goal I've ever set.And for a long time, I let that mean something about me. That I was undisciplined. That I couldn't finish what I started. That no matter how hard I tried, it was never good enough—so why even try?But here's what I've learned: the problem was never the goals.It was the story I attached to them.In today's episode, we want to reframe how we think about goals—especially if you're looking back at this year feeling disappointed, behind, or tempted to say, ‘Why bother?'Goals are meant to give you direction, but not define your worth…When you shift your focus from outcomes to effort and the actions you can control, you enjoy the process and actually get results that last. If you've ever let missing a goal give you permission to quit—or stop dreaming altogether—this one's for you.If you're a coach, gym owner, or someone trying to build strength that carries into the real world—this one is for you.

Moonsettler is a bitconer who adheres to the old school cypherpunk values and believes that the best way ahead is to enable OP_CTV (BIP119) or LNHANCE. However, the biggest problem is the generalized loss of focus. If last year there seemed to be consensus that Bitcoin needs covenants to improve scalability and bring new use cases, now the landscape is rather gloomy. Even Moonsettler changed his Twitter screen name to Doomsettler, as a reflection on this status quo. 00:01:16 Welcome Moonsettler (Doomsettler) 00:02:40 Delayed Interview and Original eCash Debate 00:03:14 Why eCash (Chaumian Cash) Never Took Off 00:04:00 Criticism of Custodial Scaling Solutions 00:05:14 Bitcoin as Decentralized Chaumian eCash 00:06:13 Fake Austrian Economics and Full Reserve Myths 00:08:32 Loss of "No Trusted Third Parties" Culture 00:09:52 Verifiable Supply vs Historical Fraud 00:13:40 Proof of Liabilities in eCash Mints 00:15:42 Cashu Fraud Proofs and Bug Bounty 00:18:20 Chaumian Blind Signatures Explained 00:24:48 Non-Custodial Credit eCash Ideas 00:30:39 Why Debit eCash Won't Scale Bitcoin 00:36:34 Bitcoin Like Linux – Oppose Custodial Layers 00:37:13 Unlimited Paper Bitcoin vs 21M Cap 00:41:25 Loss of Proof of Keys Culture 00:46:26 Doomsettler Mindset on Bitcoin's Future 01:09:30 Early Exchange Compliance Issues 01:11:37 Satoshi's Peer-to-Peer Vision 01:15:13 Satoshi's OPSEC and Disappearance 01:19:13 Craig Wright Not Satoshi 01:26:05 Libertaria and Frontier Culture 01:28:31 No More Frontiers for Freedom 01:39:21 App Delistings and PWA Debate 01:49:16 Twitter Worse Under Elon Musk 01:55:35 AI Ruining Internet Trust 01:56:33 Introduction to Covenants 01:57:04 Covenant = Unbreakable Promise 02:00:55 History of Covenant Discussions 02:01:29 Permanent Encumbrance FUD Debunked 02:03:38 Control Today via Multisig (No Covenants) 02:07:26 Covenants Don't Break Fungibility 02:08:35 Covenants Reduce Trust in L2 02:11:46 Post-Quantum Covenant Advantages 02:13:46 OP_CTV Explained 02:15:42 Non-Interactive L2 Settlements 02:20:23 Congestion Control with Covenants 02:29:08 Ordinals Drama & OP_CAT Risks 02:31:43 Jeremy Rubin Context 02:33:49 LNHANCE Package (CTV + More) 02:36:51 Why LNHANCE is Conservative 02:44:26 2022 CTV Activation Drama 02:47:27 Curiosity vs Annoyance Motivation 02:49:04 Andreas Antonopoulos FUD Clip 02:51:15 Need for Covenant FUD FAQ 02:53:47 Persistent CTV Critics 03:55:27 Covenant FUD Knowledge Base Need 03:56:26 Steven Roose Support 03:57:40 Covenant Table on Wiki 03:58:56 Isolated Op Code Comparisons Issues 04:00:34 OPCAT vs CTV Preferences 04:01:48 Table Inconsistencies 04:02:19 Ordinals Devs Pushing OPCAT 04:03:26 CTV Strengths and Risks 04:10:22 Ideal Packages (Great Script Restoration) 04:43:24 Pink Floyd "The Wall" Analogy 04:45:49 Citadel Critique 04:49:49 Need for New Frontiers 04:51:56 Disagreeable Societies Preserve Freedom 04:54:56 Special Economic Zones for Renewal 04:57:50 Altcoins as Competition/Experiments 04:59:20 Privacy Coins Driving Response 06:00:34 Monero Privacy & Community 06:04:42 FCMP++ Upgrade 06:05:37 Monero Quantum Roadmap 06:07:16 Quantum Risks to Monero 06:09:47 Zcash Preference & Compatibility 06:11:34 ZK Privacy Advantages 06:13:16 Drivechains & Peg Risks 06:17:45 Spacechains 06:20:31 Quantum Threats to ECDSA 06:26:49 PQ Soft/Hard Fork Debate 06:34:57 Covenants for PQ Vaults 06:38:14 Ark Protocol 06:42:33 Lightning Custodial Risks 06:50:19 BitVM & Optimistic Rollups 06:55:44 Bitcoin Dev Culture Disappointment 07:49:05 Austrian vs Cypherpunk Values 07:53:20 Austrians Dislike Data 07:54:39 Full Reserve Myth 07:55:56 Core Dev Covenant Silence 07:57:32 Core Ignoring Covenants 07:58:22 Floppy's Drunk Posting 08:00:38 Calle's Cashu Story 08:02:02 Privacy Respect & Avoiding Doxing 08:02:29 Floppy's Drunk Tweets 08:03:48 Tolerance for Abusive Behavior 08:04:15 Understanding Non-Engagement with Floppy 08:04:32 Floppy as Builder (Joinstr Plugin) 08:04:57 Luke Dashjr Funding Complaints 08:05:23 Luke's Likability & Hack 08:06:36 Ocean Mining Business Model 08:08:36 Reducing Antpool Hash Dominance 08:08:56 Miner Template Building Debate 08:09:02 Mining Centralization Concerns 09:38:04 9+ Hour Marathon Reflection 09:38:45 Girlfriend & Cat Interruptions 09:39:12 How to Follow Moonsettler 09:39:45 Moonsettler's Twitter Content Focus 09:40:38 Shoutout to SimulXXX (CTV Advocate) 09:41:29 Moonsettler as Crypto Hobbyist 09:42:37 Major Contributions Discussion 09:43:38 Non-Interactive Hardware Wallet Proofs 09:44:36 Sharing Personal Bitcoin Vision 09:45:14 Coldcard Experimental Implementation 10:03:18 Seed Backup Durability & Preference for Burnable Paper Backups 10:04:22 Manual Entropy & Seed Splitting 10:05:01 Early Self-Custody Cheat Sheets 10:05:25 Hardware Wallet Entropy Risks 10:06:30 Dice-Rolled Seeds vs Hardware 10:07:27 2-of-3 Backup Scheme 10:07:59 Crypto Steel Promo 10:08:24 10-Hour Mark, No Bathroom Break 10:08:49 Thanks & Merry Christmas 10:09:41 Next Episode Tease

This episode contains very strong language and isn't suitable for small ears. Sophie Willan is a double BAFTA award-winning writer, comedian and actor, perhaps best known for her BBC comedy drama, Alma's Not Normal. But it wasn't always red carpets and award ceremonies. Willan experienced an unsettled childhood with spells in foster care, which she talks openly about in this episode. We also talk about a failed Edinburgh show that coincided with an ‘intense' relationship and what these experiences taught her. Moving, funny and honest, this episode was recorded in front of a lovely live audience at The Lowry in Salford, Manchester. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Introduction 02:00 Alma's Not Normal: Success and Challenges 03:00 The Emotional Toll of Comedy 03:55 Awards and Recognition 05:03 Personal Struggles and Triumphs 08:43 Reflections on Care Experience 14:39 Family Stories and Humor 23:46 The Fine Line Between Madness and Comedy 24:49 A Disastrous Improv Show 26:55 The Novice Detective: A Misplaced Comedy 27:55 Facing Criticism and Misogyny in Comedy 31:32 Stories of Care: Empowering Voices 32:27 The Edinburgh Experience: Highs and Lows 38:06 Writing Process: Chaos and Creativity

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence.In today's episode, we're joined by Vasanta Pundarika, CEO of Lotuspring, a renowned healthcare investment banker, and trusted advisor to industry leaders who are working to bridge the gap between clinical conviction and sustainable scale—especially in women's and behavioral health. Hosted by Sara Payne, this powerful conversation dives deep into why so many healthcare brands are missing a pivotal movement in women's health, what it takes to truly earn women's trust, and how marketing, operations, and clinical teams can come together to create meaningful experiences that serve women holistically.Women's health is having a moment—but as Vasanta shares, it's more accurately a movement, driven by years of systemic gaps and a growing recognition that the status quo isn't enough. Despite the buzz, many organizations talk about leading in women's health without making necessary investments or creating real, differentiated experiences for female patients. A veteran in both finance and healthcare, Vasanta unpacks what ‘good' truly looks like when brands commit to women's health. From aligning marketing strategy with clinical substance, to collaborating across the C-suite, to acknowledging and addressing patient experience pain points—today's episode lays out a clear, actionable path for healthcare leaders and marketers ready to close the gap and build genuine, lasting trust with women.The discussion explores real-world pitfalls like “pink washing,” the underestimation of women's health complexity, and siloed planning between departments. Vasanta Pundarika also highlights industry standouts and the need for both niche and broad-based organizations to step up. Specific case studies in behavioral health, perimenopause, and cardiac care underscore the urgency of creating inclusive solutions, not just for women but for the health of families and communities at large.Thank you for listening to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of healthcare depends on it.Key Takeaways:1. Move Beyond “Pink Washing”:Simply rebranding existing services or adding “women's health” messaging is not enough. Vasanta cautions against the pitfall of making things “pink” instead of developing real, differentiated clinical protocols and care pathways that address women's unique healthcare needs. Authenticity and substance, not symbolic gestures, win trust.2. Patient Experience Is the Product:Women's trust is built—or broken—in the details of the patient journey. Friction, complexity, or mismatched promises quickly erode brand loyalty. Brands that reduce barriers, provide holistic navigation, and deliver truly seamless experiences demonstrate that they “see” and value their female patients.3. Alignment Across Marketing, Clinical, and Operations Is Essential:Growth in women's health—and sustainable, trusted brands—requires collaborative strategy development. Vasanta recommends convening marketing, clinical, operations, and strategy leaders together to ensure what's being marketed is real, deliverable, and meaningfully distinct for women.4. Word of Mouth and Community Influence Are Powerful Drivers:The “voice of the customer”—listening to real women, collecting feedback, and amplifying their positive experiences—matters immensely in healthcare. Pilots, testimonials, and sharing what works for women allows brands to build authentic, organic trust and a broader community impact.5. Don't Underestimate the Scope of Women's Health Needs:Women's health extends far beyond OBGYN care. Behavioral health, heart health, and other specialties have unique female presentations and logistical barriers. Leaders must invest...

This episode is not about fresh starts, resolutions, or manifesting a better year.It's for the people who feel heavy, uneasy, or scared as the year changes.I'm sharing honestly about what the end of the year felt like for me when my life didn't feel safe—when I was still inside emotionally abusive relationships, even though I didn't have that language yet. I talk about the dread that replaced reflection, the exhaustion of constant self-editing, the panic attacks, the private crying, the way I negotiated my own needs just to keep the peace.There are no tidy lessons here. This episode isn't meant to inspire you to do more or be better.We talk about:Why New Year's can feel threatening instead of hopeful when your life has felt unpredictable or unsafeHow emotional abuse intensifies during holidays and end-of-year reflectionThe slow realization of “I can't keep living like this” and why that isn't failureTrauma bonds, self-doubt, and the moment your body starts telling the truthWhy hope doesn't have to be loud to be realIf the bravest thing you can do right now is stop gaslighting yourself, this episode is for you.Support the showJoin the Patreon: https://patreon.com/Youarenotcrazy *New Course*: Unhooked: Map the Cycle of Abuse in your Relationship Website: Emotional Abuse Coach and high-conflictdivorcecoaching.comInstagram: @emotionalabusecoachEmail: jessica@jessicaknightcoaching.com{Substack} Blog About Recovering from Abuse {E-Book} How to Break Up with a Narcissist{Course} Identify Signs of Abuse and Begin to Heal{Free Resource} Canned Responses for Engaging with an Abusive Partner

In this episode, I'm joined by the incredible Dr. Sarah Ballantyne for one of the most grounded, science-driven conversations I've had about nutrition in a long time.   We talk about why diet culture keeps swinging between extremes, how nutrient density gets lost in food ideology, and what actually matters when it comes to protein, plants, gut health, and long-term health outcomes. Sarah breaks down why restrictive frameworks often backfire, how to evaluate food quality without fear, and what the research really says, not what performs best on social media.   This conversation is for anyone who wants to eat in a way that supports performance, longevity, and metabolic health without turning food into a moral identity.   We cover: Why nutrient density matters more than diet labels The dangers of nutrition dogma and "one right way" thinking Protein needs, plant foods, and dietary diversity Gut health, fiber, and microbial resilience How to evaluate nutrition advice critically Moving from restriction to sufficiency   Dr. Sarah's Instagram   Nutrivore 90 Challenge   For the high-achieving hot girls that want to recover better, support glowier skin, and promote longevity through better cellular health, get 20% off your first order of Mitopure and make wellness easier than ever.

Fasting is one of the most powerful tools for fat loss, healing, and longevity, but it fails for many people because their metabolism is not prepared. In this episode, Ben Azadi explains why fasting feels miserable or unsustainable for most people and reveals the hidden metabolic mistakes that sabotage results before a fast even begins. You'll learn why being a sugar burner instead of a fat burner makes fasting feel like torture, how stress and poor sleep block fat burning, and why nighttime eating can completely ruin your fast the next day. Ben also breaks down how inflammation, toxins stored in fat cells, low protein intake, and an all-or-nothing approach to fasting lead to crashes, cravings, and failure. This episode covers: Why fasting fails when metabolic flexibility is low The role of insulin, cortisol, and inflammation in fasting success How stress, sleep, and nighttime eating impact fat burning Why toxins can make fasting feel worse instead of better How to properly prepare your body before fasting The 7 foundational steps to make fasting easier and effective How to know when your body is truly ready to fast If fasting has ever felt like failure or suffering, this episode explains why it was not your fault and how fixing the foundation can completely change your results.

The biggest threat to consumer financial health isn't inflation, stagnant wages, or market volatility, but the financial system itself. Not because it's failing, but because it's been silently optimized to benefit the most educated, the wealthiest, and the most sophisticated players. In the new book Fixed, a harsh truth is revealed: from daily saving and borrowing to education loans, insurance, and retirement planning, personal finance is designed to disadvantage the very people it seeks to help. Complexity becomes a source of profit. Friction turns into a deliberate feature. And billions of people, from young families to aging retirees, are left making high-stakes decisions within a system stacked against them. Today on Banking Transformed, I'm joined by the co-author of the book, Tarun Ramadorai. We explore how we got here, why consumers struggle with even the most basic financial choices, and most importantly, what it will take to restore fairness, trust, and transparency. If you care about the future of consumer banking, financial well-being, or rebuilding confidence in the system, this is a conversation you can't afford to miss.

In this episode, we're talking about inconsistency and why certain routines never stick, why "discipline" isn't the issue, and how your Human Design shows the natural rhythms your body prefers. If you've ever tried to force yourself into someone else's routine, wondered why it only worked for a week, then berated yourself for "not sticking with it", this episode will help you understand why — and what to build instead.

The Founderz Lounge Episode #66 with Don Varady and Steve Bon.Don and Steve are back with another round of “Business & Bullsh*t,” where real entrepreneurs talk wins, screwups, and what actually moves the needle in business without the corporate fluff.They kick things off with camping like “homeless men” and wild childhood clubhouse stories, then pivot into why U.S. franchise chains are growing faster internationally than at home and what that really says about brand strategy. From there, they get brutally honest about restaurant standards, why most places lose customers to complacency instead of competition, and the consulting contract that almost ended Don's company and completely changed how he looks at legal protection.Along the way, they hit everything from DoorDash quietly exploding with Boomers and Gen X to Stiller's Soda, strange news, and a rapid-fire round of business lessons, bad decisions, and hard-earned perspective.Hit play for a straight shot of real talk on growth, risk, and what happens when your standards drift before your sales do.Timestamps:[00:00] Trailer[00:50] Founderz Roundup: International franchising[02:53] DoorDash[04:16] Pop Culture Bull Sh*t: Stiller's Soda[05:21] Social Media Update[06:41] Strange News: PepsiCo[07:43] Weekly Mash-Up[07:46] Netflix and Ring Doorbell[09:03] Founderz Hot Take[10:11] Founderz Fast Five[10:17] Childhood memories[11:06] Devil's Night[11:26] Clubhouse in the woods[12:21] Business lesson[13:28] Partnership[14:56] Strangest things seen while driving[16:35] Movie titleKey Takeaways:  • 2024, U.S based chains that expanded outside of the U.S. posted a 4.8% cumulative international growth versus 1.4% domestically. ~Don Varady [01:13]• “Your product isn't the problem.

In this bonus episode of Hybrid Office Hours, the Hybrid team breaks down the most common marketing blind spots they see across the cannabis industry, from dispensaries to B2B and ancillary brands. Drawing on years of firsthand experience, this conversation outlines why many cannabis marketing strategies fail to deliver results and what brands should rethink if they want to compete, grow, and win market share. The discussion is practical, candid, and grounded in real examples from legal cannabis markets. Rather than chasing trends or vanity metrics, the episode challenges brands to focus on fundamentals like audience clarity, value differentiation, realistic expectations, and long term visibility. Below are the ten cannabis marketing blind spots covered in the episode and why each one matters. 1. Believing Your Audience Is Everyone One of the most persistent mistakes cannabis brands make is assuming their product is for everyone. While many people can consume cannabis, that does not mean everyone will. Trying to appeal to a broad audience dilutes messaging and weakens brand identity. The team emphasizes the importance of niching down and focusing on the people most likely to say yes. Brands that go deep with a specific audience conserve marketing budgets, create stronger emotional connections, and become more relevant within a defined lifestyle. 2. Relying on Educational Content to Drive Sales Educational cannabis content has value, but it rarely leads directly to transactions. Topics like terpenes, cannabinoids, and the entourage effect attract informational search traffic, not buyers ready to purchase. The episode explains that educational searches are typically global and dominated by publishers and media brands, not dispensaries or product companies. While education can support sales conversations or B2B marketing, it should not be treated as a primary revenue driver for consumer brands. 3. Failing to Clearly Define a Unique Value Proposition If a brand looks and sounds like its competitors, consumers have no reason to choose it. Every purchase decision is based on perceived value, not just price. The team stresses that brands must clearly communicate what makes them different and why that difference matters to customers. A unique value proposition only works if the market actually cares about it, which requires research, testing, and validation. 4. Assuming Consumers Will Adopt What You Want to Sell Many brands build products or features based on internal assumptions rather than market demand. This often leads to wasted time, money, and energy. The conversation highlights the importance of minimum viable products, market research, and competitive analysis. Great ideas are only valuable if customers actually want them and are willing to pay for them. 5. Underestimating the Impact of Packaging and Design Packaging is often the first and sometimes only interaction a consumer has with a cannabis brand. Strong design builds trust, signals quality, and drives trial. Examples like Wild and 1906 illustrate how distinctive packaging can influence purchasing decisions, even when consumers cannot remember the brand name. The team also notes that while compliance rules may limit creativity, all competitors face the same constraints. 6. Treating Cannabis as a Commodity Instead of a Lifestyle Successful brands align themselves with a lifestyle, values, and identity rather than just a product category. People use brands to signal who they are and what they believe in. The episode reinforces that lifestyle branding is a natural extension of niching down and is especially effective in competitive markets where products are otherwise similar. 7. Ignoring PR as a Core Marketing Channel Public relations is positioned as a visibility engine that fuels both traditional and AI driven search. Mentions from trusted publications and industry sources carry more weight than self promotion. The team advises brands to budget for PR early, coordinate announcements carefully, and avoid missing opportunities by sharing news before involving PR professionals. 8. Expecting Immediate Results and Overnight Wins Marketing is a process, not an event. Brands often approach marketing reactively, expecting it to solve urgent business problems. The episode makes clear that trust, awareness, and demand are built over time. Even paid advertising requires repetition and consistency, while organic strategies like SEO and brand building need patience and long term commitment. 9. Misjudging Market Size and Growth Potential Understanding total addressable market is critical in cannabis due to geographic and regulatory limits. Not every category is large enough to support aggressive growth targets. The team shares examples where brands set unrealistic revenue goals without accounting for category size, competition, or consumer demand, leading to frustration and financial strain. 10. Overvaluing Social Media as a Sales Channel A strong social presence does not automatically translate into revenue. Followers, likes, and engagement are not the same as customers. Social media is positioned as a tool for attention, credibility, and brand presence rather than direct ROI. The team encourages brands to set realistic expectations, prioritize relatability over rigid brand rules, and give social media managers the autonomy to create engaging content. Final Takeaway These ten blind spots are common across the cannabis industry, which means brands that address them gain an immediate strategic advantage. By focusing on clarity, differentiation, patience, and visibility, cannabis companies can move ahead of competitors who remain stuck in outdated assumptions.

This is not a show I ever planned to do. In all my years of podcasting, I've never felt compelled to look back and take stock of where we've been. But twenty twenty-four and twenty twenty-five have been different. These years have been brutal for our community, and I couldn't stay silent any longer. We lost giants. Real giants. Men who shaped the very foundation of modern Sasquatch research and carried the torch forward into the twenty-first century. Tonight, I'm setting aside whatever differences might have existed to honor what they gave us and acknowledge that we've lost some truly important figures.Doctor Jeff Meldrum passed away in September of twenty twenty-five after a brief battle with brain cancer. He was sixty-seven years old. The full professor of anatomy and anthropology at Idaho State University gave our community something precious: legitimacy. With his collection of over three hundred footprint casts and his landmark book Sasquatch: Legend Meets Science, he picked up where Grover Krantz left off and continued the tradition of academic rigor in a field that desperately needed it.I had the privilege of sitting down with Jeff just a few weeks before he passed, and that conversation will stay with me forever.Henry Franzoni died on August twenty-second, twenty twenty-four, also at sixty-seven. If Meldrum brought scientific credibility to Bigfoot research, Henry brought the internet. Back in nineteen ninety-three, he created the first Bigfoot website and the first online discussion group, the Internet Virtual Bigfoot Conference. From that foundation grew pretty much every Bigfoot organization and website you see today. I interviewed Henry about a year before he passed, and afterward he sent me a signed copy of his book, Failing in a Cooler Way: Why I Never Found Bigfoot. That title tells you everything you need to know about who Henry was as a person.Steven Streufert, owner of Bigfoot Books in Willow Creek, California, is also gone now. Steven was an institution, a historian and scholar who knew the stories, the players, and the timeline of how this phenomenon evolved from local legend to international sensation. He was a key member of the Bluff Creek Project, the team that rediscovered the exact location where Patterson and Gimlin filmed their famous footage in nineteen sixty-seven. Steven and I had our public disagreements in his Facebook group, but that's what a community of researchers should look like. We can all have our opinions and still show mutual respect for one another.Beyond the deaths, we lost places too. The Bigfoot Discovery Museum in Felton, California, closed its doors after twenty years. And in December of twenty twenty-four, two men from Portland died from exposure in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest while searching for Sasquatch on Christmas Eve.I explore the legacies of these three researchers, discuss the current state of Sasquatch research, examine the Patterson-Gimlin film at fifty-seven years, address what the skeptics say, talk about the nearly one thousand witnesses I've interviewed over almost forty years, and reflect on the lessons we can learn from the men we lost. I also share a word about safety for anyone venturing into the wilderness in pursuit of this mystery.The disagreements don't matter. The bickering doesn't matter. What matters is the work. What matters is the pursuit. These men spent their lives investigating something that most of society considers a joke, and they did it because they believed the truth was worth pursuing. Their torches have been passed. We'll do our best to carry them forward.Leave Brian A Voicemail Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

IMMIGRATION POLICY AND THE EROSION OF CITIZENSHIP Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Hansoncritiques the 1965 Hart-Celler Act for destroying meritocratic immigration in favor of family ties and the 1986 amnesty for failing to secure the border as promised. He argues that maintaining open borders and ignoring laws creates a large, non-citizen constituency that undermines the legal and cultural concept of American citizenship, fundamentally altering the electorate. Hanson contrasts this with the experience of legal immigrants, noting that the distinction of citizenship offers a dignity and equality often unavailable in their countries of origin. NUMBER 2

The 2025 Trump was supposed to be a more refined version of the 2017 original. But according to National Interest editor Jacob Heilbrunn, Trump 2.0 has fizzled into Trump 0.2. 2025 will be remembered, Heilbrunn argues, as the beginning of the end of Trump's authoritarian aspirations. MAGA has fractured, the administration is incompetent, and Trump himself is running what Heilbrunn calls an "absentee landlord" presidency. And things, Heilbrunn predicts, are only going to get worse. In 2026, he suspects, there will be a serious economic downturn—even an AI-triggered 1929-style crash—that will only formalize the dismal failure of Trump's second regime. Perhaps. Although Trump always seems most resilient after being written off by DC pundits like Heilbrunn. The old pugilist, albeit only a “quasi-Caesar”, still has a few more rounds in him.

Fashion icon Bella Freud on abandoning psychics, learning to trust herself and realising that what happens next is entirely up to her. Freud is a designer and creative whose clothes have adorned the likes of Zadie Smith, Kate Moss, Little Simz and…well…me. She's also a cult podcaster with her hit show, Fashion Neurosis, where guests are invited to examine what clothes mean to them. She's lived a fascinating life: the daughter of Lucian Freud, the great-granddaughter of psychoanalyst Sigmund and the sister of novelist Esther who wrote the novel Hideous Kinky about their childhood. Now in her 60s, she joins me to explore why she's always late, why she regrets never joining the circus and what it's really like carrying the weight of such an instantly recognisable family name. Plus: why she no longer goes to psychics. Bella is so smart, considered and stylish. This free-ranging conversation will make you think, laugh and feel unexpectedly hopeful about getting older. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Introduction 04:04 The Power of Fashion and Design 06:47 Challenges in the Fashion Industry 11:52 The Significance of Punctuality 17:02 Childhood Memories and Their Impact 22:18 Therapy and Family Loss 26:13 Reflecting on a Peaceful Passing 27:43 Family Dynamics 30:04 The Circus Job That Never Was 32:33 Sibling Relationships and Childhood Roles 36:06 The Legacy of the Freud Name 41:23 Embracing Failures and Life Lessons 46:28 Living Authentically and Joyfully
