It might even be easy to use some of the Stoic teachings to tell yourself that travel is exotic, or even frivolous. But it isn't. It's essential.
If Ryan could sit down with Marcus Aurelius and ask him one question, it wouldn't be about Meditations or Stoic philosophy. In today's episode, Ryan poses the question to Professor William O. Stephens, author of and they discuss why the answer is far more complicated than it seems.
Get a $230 gift card after your first payment of $500 with Melio (affiliate) - https://milestomemories.com/go/melio/ Shawn's InKind referral ($25 off $50) - https://milestomemories.com/go/inkind Mark went on an application spree and the final tally is absurd: 690,000 points across Amex, American, Atmos and Bilt, plus $500 in dining money, against $1,719 in fees, and we break down why the math still works. Along the way, a bank that denied him for nearly a decade finally said yes, and nobody knows why. Then a new LendingTree study has us worried: most Gen Z cardholders pay just the minimum, nearly half of all cardholders do not know their own APR, and a quarter treat their credit card as their emergency fund, so we get into what actually moves your credit score and the class schools should be teaching everyone. Plus the Muggle vs Wizard Meta glasses showdown, how Mark stacked Ray-Ban, a shopping portal and an Amex offer into a much cheaper second pair, and the unclaimed property treasure chest, including the $600 that found its way back to Mark years later.

**The California Nightmare Continues**California's taxpayers are footing the bill for the personal security of former Governor Gavin Newsom and Senator Kamala Harris, with a whopping $20 million allocated from the DMV fees.

A gas company just paid a record-breaking $5.3 million for its tanker ship to skip the Panama Canal's long line, a line induced by the US-Iran war.

Sept. 2, 2026 Kyle Frederickson, co-founder of Keyrenter Boise, shares how his property management company added 36 new doors in a single month without spending a dollar on paid leads. He breaks down how he built a referral network from scratch after moving to a new city with zero connections, why "less is more" beats casting a wide net with brokerages, and the simple habit (actually answering the phone) that keeps referral relationships compounding for years. The conversation also gets into the review-generation tactics that turned a painful one-star review into content, and how he and his business partner — one the visionary, one the integrator — navigate disagreements without letting them fester.
This episode of the podcast is a wild ride, covering everything from calendar adjustments to pheromone maxing, and even a possible Garth Brooks sighting at the Grizzly Rose. Ross and Jeana start off by thanking a listener for sending in a tip about a quirky national day, Calendar Adjustment Day, which commemorates the switch from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar in 1752. The host shares an interesting fact about how the British stayed on the Julian calendar until 1752, and how this led to a 11-day adjustment. The episode also delves into a fascinating conversation with a writer who's been researching the ethanol industry and its impact on the environment. Ross and guest discuss the pros and cons of using ethanol as a fuel source, and how it's been a contentious issue for decades. They also touch on the recent increase in gas prices and how it's affecting the midterms. But that's not all - the episode also covers some lighter topics, like a creepy TikTok trend called pheromone maxing, where some Gen Zers are embracing their natural body odor as a way to attract the opposite sex. Ross shares a humorous anecdote about his son's experience with cologne and the surprising trend of young men buying expensive fragrances. The episode wraps up with a discussion about a new poll from the Colorado Polling Institute, which reveals some interesting insights into Denverites' attitudes towards the city's mayor, transportation, and business. Ross also shares some data about the state's reliance on fee revenue and how it compares to other states.

A Seattle couple's attempt to recall Mayor Katie Wilson imploded this week in a courtroom that nobody expected to see. The petitioners abruptly withdrew their petition at a surprise hearing — citing a need for "more investigation" — only to be admonished by the judge, warned about sanctions, and left staring down a demand from the city for court fees. They represented themselves through most of it. The judge called it highly irregular. The city called it a mulligan.Mayor Wilson held a press conference afterward and managed to say almost nothing. She pivoted to affordability talking points, dodged every pointed question about the recall, and her press team reportedly tried to block camera angles from reporters. This is Seattle accountability in action: an elderly couple gets financially punished for taking on City Hall while the mayor's office spins the collapse as a vindication.Sean breaks down why the petition was always on thin legal ice — a missed deadline, a 41A1A filing issue, and a judge who gave the petitioners one courtesy pass they couldn't convert — but doesn't pretend the underlying frustration is wrong. Full credit goes to Melinda Jacobson for having the guts to push forward without money or lawyers. The case is effectively done. The couple says it's not over.

Text the show! Oregon put a packaging fee on thousands of companies. There's just one problem: when you buy the product, you can't see what you're paying.And Oregon already knows how to do this differently.Buy a mattress and the recycling fee appears on your receipt. Buy paint and the fee is disclosed. Return a bottle and there's a dime attached to it — a dime that helped Oregon's bottle bill automatically correct itself when return rates fell.Then you get to groceries.Dozens of packaging rates. Thousands of participating producers. A nonprofit administering the system. Hundreds of millions of dollars eventually moving through the program.And no comparable number on your receipt.On this Taxation Tuesday Special, Chad Law follows the money through Extended Producer Responsibility and asks a much larger question: what happens when government stops calling a cost a tax, routes it through private institutions, and makes the final price nearly impossible for the public to see?The trail runs from Oregon to Colorado, Maine, California, overseas sellers, major corporations, nonprofits, and ultimately your grocery cart.And it ends with a simple Common Sense framework: THE DIME TEST.Where's the number?Whose receipt is it on?What happens if it doesn't work?Because the issue isn't whether recycling costs money.Of course it does.The issue is whether the people paying for government policy are allowed to know what it costs.
This hour, The New Orleans City Council is considering a new tax or fee on Mardi Gras krewes to help offset the cost of police, protection, and logistics for parades. Is that reasonable, or would it put too much pressure on the krewes that already spend big money to keep Mardi Gras rolling? If you ride or belong to a krewe, do you understand the need for the city to recover some costs, or do you think this would hurt the tradition?

Democracy is in the dumps. OK, that's a bit dramatic. But it's definitely not working as well as it used to. Good thing Daron Acemoglu — Nobel laureate, MIT Institute Professor, and one of the world's most-cited economists — has a plan to fix it. Today on the show, he explains why liberal democracy has faltered in the post-industrial age and makes the case for upgrading it to a new "working-class liberalism" built around good jobs, strong communities, and greater tolerance. We also discuss what today's populist movements get right and wrong, and why immigration has become such a powerful political fault line. Plus: Why Daron, once skeptical that AI would amount to much economically, now thinks a transformation larger than the Industrial Revolution is on the table. His new book is What Happened to Liberal Democracy? Remaking a Politics of Shared Prosperity. __________
Carly Stagge left corporate finance at JP Morgan and did $1 million in assignment fees her first full year in Denver. She explains why her company double closes every deal now, and how transactional funding moved their average fee from $17,500 to $25,500 in a single month. She also covers what a double close does that an assignment cannot, including the ability to renegotiate price with the seller, and why assignment fee laws in states like Pennsylvania and Ohio are pushing wholesalers toward it.

Most speech-language pathologists take the job that's posted. Kyle Chaska built the one that wasn't. Kyle is the owner of Dynamic Swallow Assessments, a mobile practice that brings FEES - fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing - directly into facilities across Iowa and Illinois. Instead of a resident being transported out for an instrumental swallow study, the study comes to the bedside, and the on-site therapy team gets a report and a plan the same day. In this conversation with Dr. Adam Sewell, Kyle breaks down how he spotted an underserved service, built a referral base from scratch, and grew a practice around doing one thing exceptionally well. What we get into: Spotting the gap: why instrumental swallow studies were the bottleneck nobody was fixing Going mobile - what a portable service model actually costs to start, and what it doesn't Building a referral base as an unknown clinician with no institution behind you Working with on-site therapists instead of around them, and why that's the whole business Covering two states: territory, scheduling, and the limits of a one-clinician model Where a specialized clinical skill becomes a defensible business What Kyle would tell an SLP who's thinking about going out on their own Connect with Kyle: Web: dynamicswallowassessments.com Email: dynamicswallowassessments@gmail.com Phone: 515-290-1228
What if creativity isn't a talent you're born with, but a muscle you've simply stopped using? In Daily Creative, Blythe Harris and Mallory May make the case that everyone is creative — even the people convinced they can't draw, paint, write, or make anything “good.” The real problem is that perfectionism, routine, and our obsession with getting things right have trained many of us to stop experimenting altogether. In this conversation with Rufus, Blythe and Mallory reveal why even a few minutes of creative play can boost well-being, sharpen your thinking, and pull you out of autopilot. They share simple ways to quiet your inner critic, explain why constraints can actually make you more creative, and show how noticing what catches your eye can help you develop a point of view that's genuinely your own. And in an age of AI and automation, they argue that exercising your creativity may matter more than ever.
Naren Arulrajah, CEO of Ekwa Marketing and co-host of Less Insurance Dependence, joins host Angie to explain why marketing to PPO and fee-for-service patients as one audience quietly undercuts both. From the real cost of a stagnant PPO reimbursement to a client's journey from $700,000 working four days a week to $1.3 million working three days a week, this episode breaks down how mindset, not insurance status, shapes patient trust, phone conversion, and long-term practice growth.

The California high-speed rail project has been plagued by delays, cost overruns, and controversy since its inception. But how bad is it really? This episode takes a closer look at the project's history, its current state, and the people affected by it.The project, which was initially estimated to cost $33.5 billion, has now ballooned to a staggering $230 billion. The state has spent nearly $6 billion in delay and change order fees to contractors, with some companies raking in $170,000 a day in delay fees. The project's CEO, Ian Chowdhury, admits that the process has been flawed from the start, and that building happened too soon. But despite these setbacks, Chowdhury remains optimistic, saying that with proper funding, the project will be up and running by 2039.But what about the people affected by this project? We hear from a farmer who had 81 acres of his land taken by the state for the project, and a business owner who has seen his property disrupted by the constant construction. The state's handling of the project has been criticized by many, including the inspector general, who says that the project's plan is dramatically incomplete and needs to be revised.If you want to understand the full extent of the California high-speed rail project's problems, tune in to this episode to hear the shocking truth.

If you've ever thought, “I like my clients, so why do I feel stuck at my firm?” this episode is for you.We sit down with Carmine Carino, founder and CEO of Cornerstone Planning Group, to talk about why advisors leave insurance and broker-dealer environments for independent, fee-only RIAs. Carmine shares the story behind his book Broken Dealer, the common frustrations that lead advisors to make a change, and how to know when you're actually ready to go independent.We also talk about Carmine's own experience launching an RIA in 2020, the challenges that came with it, and what he's learned about building and growing a firm.From there, we get into scaling without burning yourself out. Carmine explains his idea of “growth by elimination,” why creating more capacity often means doing less, and how delegation, client segmentation, ideal client profiles, and a strong culture can help you build a better business.If you're thinking about going independent or simply want to grow your firm with less chaos, there's a lot to take away from this conversation.Websites:https://www.carminecorino.com/https://www.cornerstoneplanninggroup.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/carminecorino/

In this episode, host Jean Fisher Brinkley talks with Brian Blankenship, JD, Chief Legal Officer and Legislative Liaison for the Board, about an important update to physician and physician assistant licensing fees. No one likes hearing that fees are increasing, and we understand that. So rather than simply announcing the change, we wanted to explain how it was decided that the increase is warranted and what these fees support.View some of the resources mentioned in this episode here.Follow the North Carolina Medical Board on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and X.Email your questions to: podcast@ncmedboard.org.

End chaos in your firm—300+ peers use this framework. Free video here: https://www.businessofarchitecture.com/framework In this live talk at Westminster University, Rion Willard shares a sharp, practical look at one issue many architects feel but rarely name: why good work does not always lead to a healthy business. He speaks from direct experience, moving from practice into advising firms, and he challenges some deeply held beliefs about fees, value, and the role of money in architecture. But this episode is not just about charging more. It is about a bigger shift in how architects think, speak, and act when business decisions carry real weight. Rion points to a few hidden patterns that quietly shape results, and he shows why some common habits may be costing firms far more than they realize. If you have ever felt tension around pricing, growth, or client expectations, this conversation will give you plenty to think about—and a new lens for what may be possible. The quiet belief that may be hurting your fees more than the market Why one common way of billing can create far more stress than most architects realize The subtle shift that can change how clients see your value before numbers even come up Resource: https://www.businessofarchitecture.com/smart-practice-project-fee-budget-calculator

We re-visit one of the most emotional and gripping conversations we have ever recorded. Eight Olympic medals, five of them gold, and the first Briton ever to win the Tour de France. For one summer in 2012, Sir Bradley Wiggins was the most famous man in Britain — sideburns, gold medal, sat on a throne at Hampton Court. He couldn't bring himself to put the medal on.Bradley takes us right back to the beginning: a council estate in Kilburn, a father who left when he was eighteen months old and came back only once his son was successful, and a coach who sexually abused him between the ages of thirteen and sixteen — something he didn't say out loud for thirty years. Then he traces, with total honesty, how that damage became the fuel that made him great, and how the same fuel nearly destroyed him when the racing stopped.Moments that will stay with you:Why Bradley laid his Olympic gold medal on the sofa rather than put it round his neckSmashing his trophies off the mantelpiece, and throwing out his knighthoodHis father's line, a week after they finally met: "Don't forget, you'll never be as good as your old man was"Realising the voice screaming at him up every climb of the Tour was his stepfather'sLance Armstrong offering to pay for his treatment, and what Bradley said backThe hotel room his son had to come and find him inHe's unflinching on what drove him: that greatness often grows out of a dark place, and that isn't something to romanticise. That you don't rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your habits. That fulfilment carries you further than happiness ever will. And his hardest-won lesson — not everyone who helps you is your friend, and not everyone who hurts you is your enemy. The answer isn't to forget the past. It's to change your relationship with it.Contains discussion of the sexual abuse of children and of addiction. Please listen with care.Revolut Business
Today, we're revisiting Rufus's conversation with Yuval Noah Harari about his book Nexus. It's Harari at his best — a soaring overview of human history that turns, almost imperceptibly, into a gripping argument about the world we are building right now. The questions he raises about how AI affects our politics are even more relevant now than they were back then. At the time, Harari warned that AI was moving "much, much faster" than he expected. Since then, it has only accelerated — and so have Harari's concerns. At Davos this year, he said: "Anything made of words will be taken over by AI. If laws are made of words, then AI will take over the legal system. If books are just combinations of words, then AI will take over books." Which makes the ideas they explore in this conversation feel less like speculation about the future and more like a description of the present. __________
