In this jaw-dropping episode , we sit down with George Day — one of the most prolific yet largely unknown drug kingpins in American history. Raised in Washington, DC, George was literally born into the drug trade. By age six, he was traveling across the border with his father, helping smuggle hundreds of pounds of marijuana hidden inside a Winnebago. As he grew older, his life spiraled deeper into the underworld — from trimming weed in Mexico to handling massive cash pickups and negotiating with Colombian suppliers before he was even a teenager. After his father's sudden death, George found himself — at just 11 years old — sitting on a multimillion-dollar drug ledger, forced to navigate dangerous debts, cartel relationships, and violent street politics. What followed was the rise of a cocaine empire that eventually stretched across all 50 states… and ultimately led to a life sentence plus 90 years in federal prison. This is Part 1 of an unbelievable story about family, survival, crime, and the realities of growing up inside America's drug economy.

Today on The Pivot Podcast, we're joined by one of the NFL's most dominant edge rushers — Brian Burns. Coming off a record-breaking season with the New York Giants, where he racked up 16.5 sacks — second most in the NFL behind Myles Garrett, Brian opens up about the defining moments of his career and the evolution of his game. He reflects on leaving the Carolina Panthers, what that transition meant personally and professionally, and how embracing change pushed him to another level. Brian opens up on his personal experience on the NFL being a business and no matter how many times you hear it, you don't truly know until you've gone through it and the impact of leaving a city he thought would be his career-home. Despite a record-setting year for Burns, the team success of Giants is something that weighs on him and is committed to turning his focus to building off the positives and has high hopes for what a new coach will add to the organization. From key veteran leadership to the electric play of quarterback Jaxon Dart, Brian believes New York's future is bright because of Dart's confidence, the skill level of offensive weapons, and young bulls like Adbul Carter being a fierce competitor with strong years ahead. Brian also gets candid about family, the role they've played in keeping him grounded, and how perspective off the field fuels excellence on it. From navigating expectations in a new city to discussing the future of the Giants, leadership, and legacy, this conversation goes far beyond stats and highlights. And of course, the guys have some laughs, as Channing knows Brian from the time he was a young boy living in south Florida as they exchange some stories of how Brian remembers Channing from back then haha. And that spirited love continues to now as Channing gets on him about having grown man hobbies vs the anime collection he boasts. This is an honest, insightful look into the mindset of an elite competitor — one who understands that growth, sacrifice, and purpose are just as important as production.

Rising through the ranks in Springfield, Massachusetts, Arillotta became a made man and later took control of the family's operations — running gambling, loansharking, and extortion rackets that defined East Coast organized crime. After years of violence, betrayal, and federal investigations, he made a decision that shocked the mob world and changed his life forever. Anthony opens up about his rise in the Genovese family, life as a mafia boss, the murders and power struggles that came with it, and what ultimately made him walk away from one of the most dangerous criminal organizations in America. #AnthonyArillotta #GenoveseCrimeFamily #MafiaBoss #LockedInWithIanBick #OrganizedCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #MafiaStories #prisoninterviews Thanks to RULA & CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Rula: Rula patients typically pay $15 per session when using insurance.

Send us a topic!!!!What shapes us more – the pivotal moments in our lives or the steady accumulation of daily experiences? In this soul-stirring episode, we're joined by "Big Me," the eldest sister, who brings wisdom, humor, and unfiltered honesty to our most personal conversation yet.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Big Me describes parenthood with a metaphor you won't hear anywhere else – comparing children to "pimps" who teach valuable life lessons while taking all your money. "They don't have money, can't drive, don't clean up, and I'm happily buying Legos. That's some pimp shit!" This perfectly captures the beautiful paradox of parenting that transformed her from living a selfish life to understanding unconditional love.We dive deep into how our upbringing shaped our identities, particularly exploring how our parents didn't actively foster close sibling relationships, creating unnecessary conflicts that followed us into adulthood. The raw truth emerges: when you're living solely for others' expectations, "you're just a shell... nobody gives a fuck how you feel, nobody sees you, nobody hears you." This powerful realization fuels our commitment to breaking generational cycles with our own children.Perhaps most revealing is our unanimous agreement that location profoundly impacts personal growth. All three siblings express feeling creatively and spiritually blocked in Las Vegas, contrasting it with the opportunities and cultural connections we experienced elsewhere. "I have yet to unlock my talents because I don't have a space to do so," Big Me confesses, explaining why our top manifestation isn't material wealth but simply "getting the fuck out" of a city that stifles our potential.This episode isn't just conversation – it's an invitation to examine how your own environments, upbringing, and life choices shape not just who you are, but who you can become. Listen now and join the family as we talk that shit about what really matters.Support the show

“It's all about labels, it's all about claims, and it's all about certifications. Regenerative is a mess. It's a hot mess. ... I can understand, articulate, and define it really easily, but the average consumer, I don't think, can for a myriad of reasons.... The entire reason regenerative agriculture was created is the beauty of it being a transition tool to improve conventional agriculture. The challenge is it's super easy to greenwash if it's not legit, and it's really easy to lower the bar as low as possible.” —Anthony Corsaro   Ever picked up a carton of “regenerative” eggs or a bag of “regenerative” chips and thought, “Is this actually better—or just clever marketing?” With so many labels, certifications, and claims crowding the shelves, it's no wonder shoppers feel lost, second-guessing every choice and wondering if they're being duped by hype.   After overcoming personal health struggles and witnessing the gaps in our food system firsthand, ReGen Brands co-founder Anthony Corsaro shifted his focus from his family's produce business to championing regenerative agriculture. His journey from industry insider to nonprofit leader gives him a unique lens to cut through the noise and spotlight what truly matters in the regenerative movement.   Tune in for a clear-eyed look into the meaning (and misuse) of the term “regenerative,” the maze of certifications, the evolution of food business models, supply chain realities, personal health impacts of eating and living regenerative, how to spot the difference between real change and empty claims, and practical tips for making smarter choices. Meet Anthony:  Anthony is the co-founder of ReGen Brands, an ecosystem supporting regenerative agriculture and CPG brands. With a background in family produce distribution and personal experience overcoming an autoimmune disease through nutrition, he transitioned from business operations to advocating for regenerative agriculture. He co-hosts the Regen Brands podcast and leads three key initiatives: the Regen Brands Institute (research), Regen Brands Coalition (brand collaboration), and Regen Brands Capital (funding). Anthony is passionate about improving food systems, supporting regenerative brands, and creating systemic solutions to help these businesses scale and succeed.   Website  LinkedIn Instagram YouTube   Connect with NextGen Purpose: Website Facebook Instagram LinkedIn YouTube     Episode Highlights: 01:12 ReGen BRands: From Podcast to Ecosystem  04:16 The Three Pillars of ReGen Brands and Non Profit Decision 08:30 Family Roots and Industry Heritage  11:25 Defining Regenerative 13:47 Making Regenerative Accesible: Consumer Clarity and Shelf Tags  17:24 Regenerative Diets and Personal Health  21:42 Tips for Aspiring Regenerative Brands

From the initial concept of Sunday's Best to facing hard moments of burnout, Shem delivers a transparent and motivating look at what it takes to succeed in the food world—and how staying curious and community-focused keeps him moving forward.   Whether you're a restaurant lover, aspiring business owner, or creative looking for inspiration, this episode delivers clarity, honesty, and encouragement in spades.   Key Takeaways [03:28] Family Roots and Resilience: Shem's grandparents immigrated from Samoa to Hawaii, seeking better opportunities. Their hard work and sacrifice laid the foundation for the family's success. [08:17] The Power of Family and Culture: Surfing and the ocean played a central role in keeping the brothers connected and grounded, influencing the restaurant's beach-themed branding. [16:17] From Humble Beginnings to Expansion: The first Seven Brothers location, Kahuku Grill, opened in 2009 with minimal experience and a $2.75 burger that initially lost money. Through word of mouth and community support, the business grew. [19:56] Menu Evolution: The iconic "Shemburger" was born out of experimentation, and the menu expanded from seafood to gourmet burgers, now a cornerstone of the brand. [29:10] Expansion and Franchising: Seven Brothers now has multiple locations (4 in Hawaii, 7 in Utah, and 1 in Arizona), with 4 more opening soon. Franchising has allowed local families to bring the brand to their communities. [41:05] Lessons in Resilience: Shem credits his parents' optimism and hard work as the driving force behind the business's success, emphasizing the mantra "this too shall pass."   Notable Quotes (3:28) "Our grandparents immigrated from Samoa to Hawaii. They wanted a better life for their kids... my dad comes from a family of 14." (15:40) “Don't do it—it's the highest fail rate... we don't have experience.” (42:20) “This too shall pass… good times or bad—just weather it. Something good will come.” – Shem Hannemann (46:39) “It's a mess, but it's my favorite burger right now.”   Resources Visit the official Seven Brothers website.

 If you're anything like me, you've likely longed for a time when you could leave everything behind and hit the road, actually live the van life. I've got you covered. This episode is for you. Today, I'm speaking with Brent and Alan Klein from VanDoit, who take travelers to better places through trustworthy, modular van designs tailored to each story. Facebook   Twitter   Instagram Love the show? Subscribe,  rate, review, and share! Sign up for my Newsletter  HERE I'd love to hear your feedback about the show! You can contact me here:  rick@theoutdoorbizpodcast.com   What Happened: I used to think van life meant dropping everything, quitting your job, and driving off into the sunset with a dog and a dream. You know, the stuff Instagram makes look effortless. But then I met people who lived something different—more real. Like hauling their kids to soccer in the same van they use for weekend mountain biking trips. Or using it as a mobile showroom by day, then a cozy crash pad by night. It hit me: this isn't about escaping life—it's about expanding it. Making your van fit your life, not the other way around. That's when I realized... van life doesn't have to be all or nothing. It can be everything. Principle: The best adventure vehicles don't just take you places—they evolve with your life. From hauling mulch to hauling mountain bikes to hauling kids, they meet you wherever you are. Van life isn't about living out of your van. It's about living more fully because of it. Transition: But here's the thing… Most people think van life means going all-in, Instagram-ready sunsets and full-time nomadism. And that belief? It's holding them back. They either think it's “not for them” or they try to DIY their way into it and end up elbow-deep in wiring they should've never touched. That's why: That's why we dropped this episode of the Outdoor Adventure Lifestyle Podcast—to show you a more authentic path. One that's rooted in decades of experience, real-life usage, and a design philosophy that's more about living than it is about lifestyle labels. Call to Action: Still dreaming of freedom but stuck thinking you're “not the van type”? Listen to this episode. Discover how modular design is changing what van life really means—no sanding, wiring, or duct-taped dreams required. #van life, #modular vans, #outdoor adventure, #camper van, #road trip, #RV conversion, #family travel, #adventure travel, #mobile medical vans, #commercial vans, #remote work, #van customization, #outdoor gear, #motorsports, #mountain biking, #camping, #van storage solutions, #modular design, #custom interiors, #everyday van use, #wellness vans, #crisis units, #versatility, #adventure gear, #van community, #DIY van conversion, #van durability, #overlanding

Send us a textEver wondered how far back your family roots can go? Join us for a remarkable journey into Italian ancestry and family history with our special guest, John Clarkin. After retiring in 2020, John embarked on a mission to honor his grandfather by tracing his lineage back to the early 1800s. Through civil and church records, John discovered distant relatives and unearthed historical connections even dating back to the 1400s. He shares the heartfelt and often surprising revelations of his family's roots in Faleria and the Campobasso region, offering a unique perspective on why many people only start exploring their heritage later in life.Listen as John recounts his multiple trips to Italy, particularly to the seemingly uneventful village of Faleria, which proved to be a goldmine of genealogical discoveries. From photographing headstones to delving into diocesan records in Civita Castellana and Nepi, John paints a vivid picture of the challenges and rewards inherent in genealogical research. Learn about the interconnected nature of families in small Italian towns and the classic immigrant experience of seeking opportunities in the US while supporting families back home. John's humorous anecdotes and heartfelt reflections will transport you to the heart of Italian family life, both past and present.Immerse yourself in the cultural richness of Italy as John shares his experience creating a PowerPoint presentation that captivated his audience and earned recognition from the mayor.

I'm Josh Cooperman and this is Convo By Design with a fresh take on design from the ATL, Atlanta, Georgia. This is a city making a huge impact on design due in large part to designers like Gabriella Eisenhart, founder of Silo Studios. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Monogram - It's the details that define Monogram ThermaSol - Redefining the modern shower experience. Without steam, it's just a bathroom. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home!  - Where service meets excellence TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep Gabriela shared her background in video production and its influence on her approach to her current work. Gabriela confirmed that her strong visual narrative in her work stems from her intuitive understanding of how a space should make people feel and her background in production. We also discussed the intricacies of the design process, emphasizing the importance of problem-solving and flexibility. Gabriela highlighted the delicate balance between respecting the architecture of a space and the lifestyle of their clients, while also creating functional and durable designs. Gabriella shared the importance of visual storytelling in her work and the need to maintain a balance between imagination and attention to detail in their presentations and designs.  Visual storytelling and the narrative surrounding the lives and interests of the clients themselves is what remains one of the greatest opportunities in the design industry. The storytelling within the work itself is what makes design so impactful on those who reside in the spaces. For years, i have been speaking with set decorators on some of the most impactful TV and film production and a constant through-line within those conversations is the importance of storytelling derived from the words on a script and a set decorators ability to transfer the essence of a character into the design of the set to adequately reflect who that character is and why they are that way. This is very much the same in interior design except instead of taking words from a page, insightful designers listen to the clients with whom they're speaking to get to the true essences of who they are and to craft  a design concept around that client and their friends, family, work, hobbies fur-babies.  Some of the best and most insightful creatives with whom I have spoken all share this ability to ask insightful questions, really listen to the responses and then read between the lines to capture the characters of their clients. Then to intuitively, instinctively craft spaces that further the narrative to the point where, and I have experienced this firsthand, a client will walk into a completed space and feel as though they have either been there before or, more commonly, feel a sense of comfort as if the space was created specifically for them. Because it was. This is connectivity at a deeper level.  These are topics with a huge impact on design today. I think in large part because we are talking about the impactful design emanating from a city like Atlanta and not just projects in the usual locales like New York, LA and Miami. Atlanta is a hotbed for groundbreaking design, because of designers like Gabriela and firms like Silo Studios. And you are going to hear from Gabriela, right after this. Thank you Gabriela. Thank you for taking the time to share your story. I enjoyed our conversation and cannot wait to see what you do next. Thank you to my partner sponsors, ThermaSol, Pacific Sales, TimberTech, Monogram and Design Hardware. These partners are amazing companies all who have made a concerted effort to support the design community through education, incentives, events, media and exposure, not to mention a collection of extraordinary products and service to match. Check the show notes for links to each of them so you can see first hand how they can make your design...

It can be wicked easy to get attached to the idea that relationships are supposed to last forever – and that people and how we relate to one another are supposed to stay the same. This notion gets reinforced in our minds, because our brains really like familiarity and don't particularly love change. When it comes to human beings and relationships - things remaining the same - is not a reasonable expectation because like trees, we're all destined to grow.Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we're talking about how people are kind of like trees and the different relationships they find themselves in. Some relationships weather the toughest storms, bending but not breaking. Others provide support, shade or nourishment for a time before falling away. But all are built on the foundation, the roots, that started with what we learned in our earliest home life with our family.If you were to look at the people in your own life - what kind of “trees” would you discover? Do you have strong, stable Redwoods? Or are they a low bush that's never going to grow and it may be time to uproot and move on from them? As with trees, sometimes relationships wither away, but it doesn't mean they didn't serve a purpose when they came into our life. Like trees, relationships grow and change with each passing season with some remaining long term like evergreens and others moving on to grow alongside someone else. So, take a look around and ask yourself, “Who am I standing in the forest of this life with and are there any that I may have outgrown that it is time to say goodbye to? Plus, what kind of tree am I being to others?”KK's Takeaways:• Trees, Relationships + Personal Growth (01:36)• Family Roots (7:17)• Toxic Family Dynamics + Self-Care (13:25)• Tree Trunks, Growth + Relationships (15:51)• Self-Awareness (21:34)• The Cycles Of Relationships (27:43)• Building Sturdy Relationships (32:49)• Spiritual Growth + Internal Resources (36:09)• Personal Growth + Relationships (42:13)• Spark Of Life (47:38)Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Hypnotist, Integrative Change Worker and a Life Coach.
