This will help you de-stress, unwind, and rest. Enjoy two hours of relaxing sounds to help you relax, focus, study and fall asleep.About ASMR Sleep Recordings:The purpose of ASMR Sleep Recording is to help you sleep and concentrate better. This particular episode lasts two hours and has no ads in the middle, so you won't be woken up or disturbed while focusing or relaxing. When you listen to ASMR Sleep Recordings, you can lock your phone, so you won't get any bothersome stimuli from notifications and other sounds from your phone. You can switch between apps while studying or working without pausing the ambient sound.About our sounds:Water creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to running water is an ideal way to turn off all the stressful things life brings, and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds include a river, flowing creek, babbling brook, gentle waves on a lake, and a bamboo fountain. Rain also creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to rain is an ideal way to switch off all the stressful things life brings and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds are rain on an umbrella, hailstorms, hard rain, soft rain, gentle rain, wind and rain, rain on a car.White noise helps babies and children to get a better and deeper night's sleep. This is because external sounds are masked by the noise. With white noise in the background, your child will not hear annoying cars driving by or dogs barking in bed. This allows your little one to sleep better. And it also saves you as a parent a lot of hours!Pink noise is more common in nature than you might expect. It can be compared to continuous rainfall or wind. In addition to white noise, pink noise is also increasing in popularity, especially in business environments. Because it can increase productivity, concentration and creativity.Brown noise can be compared to waves of the sea, a river current, strong winds or the sound of thunder during a storm. Like pink noise, brown noise is very similar to white noise. However, the frequencies have been lowered even further and a lot more concentrated. This gives it a rougher/coarse tone than pink noise. It sounds a bit deeper and a bit bass-like. The benefits of brown noise are the same as the other types of noise. It provides relaxation, increased focus and improved deep sleep.DISCLAIMER: Be aware that loud noises can damage your hearing. If you can't carry on a conversation without raising your voice while playing one of our spheres, the sound may be too loud for your ears. Do not place the speakers directly next to a baby's ears. If you have trouble hearing or ringing in your ears, stop listening to the white noise immediately and see an audiologist or your doctor.

'Running Toward the Fire' is about someone standing at the edge of a life-changing dream—terrified, unsure, but determined to move forward anyway. They're caught between who they used to be and who they're trying to become, fighting private battles nobody sees. Even though fear follows them at every step, they choose to chase something bigger than themselves, accepting that growth demands risk. It's the story of a person who would rather face the fire, fall, bruise, and rebuild than live a life that isn't true to their soul.

Pay off your mortgage or invest? If you're pursuing FIRE, you've wrestled with this question. A paid-off house means thousands extra in your pocket each month and a lower FIRE number. But investing that same money could build significantly more wealth and get you to FIRE with a bigger nest egg. So which strategy wins? To help you decide, Scott built a brand-new mortgage calculator that accounts for interest rates, investment returns, and taxes. He and Mindy use it to analyze real-world scenarios—high mortgage balances, different life stages, various risk tolerances—proving there's no one-size-fits-all answer. In this episode, you'll learn: Who should prioritize paying off their mortgage early The hidden pros and cons of each strategy Why your timeline to FIRE changes everything How to use Scott's calculator for your specific situation Different paths for those retiring soon versus decades away Whether you want maximum wealth for a luxurious retirement or just want to quit your job as fast as possible, we've mapped out strategies for both.

Send us a textChange that lasts doesn't come from a one-time high or another sleepless night patched by a pill. It comes from disciplined, daily work that your brain can actually keep—paired with leadership that people trust when it matters most. Steve sits down with Marine veteran and CEO Tony Crescenzo to unpack how audio-driven brain signals can turn short-term “state” shifts into month-later “trait” changes, especially for first responders who need real restorative sleep, calmer stress responses, and sharp, on-demand focus.Tony explains why many sleep aids trade consciousness for quality, and how targeted signals—played on speakers, no headphones required—help nudge your brain into restorative rhythms you can retain. We talk timing and caution with upregulation tools, creative research that mimics ketamine-like EEG states without the drug, and why a practical 28 to 31 day window is fast when you're aiming for durable change. Therapy isn't sidelined; it's strengthened. Cultural competence, honest fit, and doing the work between sessions matter as much as any technology.Then we move from personal resilience to organizational resilience. Tony draws from the Marine Corps to break down four levels of leadership, from positional authority to field effect, where mission, vision, values, and culture guide action even when you're not in the room. He favors bad news because it's actionable, builds systems that surface hard questions, and sets expectations so clearly that people don't have to guess. Management keeps metrics on track; leadership gives the plan meaning and keeps teams aligned under pressure.If you're a first responder, veteran, or leader trying to build a healthier, higher-performing team, this conversation offers tools you can use today and habits you can keep for the long haul.

 We continue with the second set from the Uptown Theatre in Chicago on November 18, 1978.  This one starts with a fine Scarlet>Fire, perhaps a bit shorter than some, but with some nice Garcia intensity leading into Fire. Miracle follows leading into an excellent 'He's Gone' - there's an interesting jam here unlike most you'll hear in this song. The recording really brings this one home. Instead of going right into Drums, we get Bobby and Phil leading the band into a fine 'Other One'. Once they do go into Drums, they go into a unique Ollin Arageed space.. 'Wharf Rat' then 'Sugar Magnolia ' end the set, but surprise, they do a 'One More Saturday Night' encore...   Grateful Dead Uptown Theatre Chicago, IL 11/18/1978 - Saturday Two      Scarlet Begonias [11:35] > Fire On The Mountain [7:05] ; I Need A Miracle [7:52] > He's Gone [11:09] > The Other One [13:29] > Drums [6:34] > Space [2:34] > Wharf Rat [9:10] > Sugar Magnolia [8:44] Encore      One More Saturday Night [4:45]   You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:  http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod111425.mp3   My thanks for your very kind support of the Deadpod

Today's show documents a lively, late-night brainstorming session between two friends, Eric and Tyson, who are discussing branding and identity for Tyson's elite fire suppression business, Acefire. Fueled by whiskey and a fire in the background, the conversation quickly turns to leveraging ChatGPT, an AI tool, to formalize an "elite" group identity and an accompanying mascot, logo, and motto for Tyson's top employees. They discuss inspiration from military and fire department "brotherhood" aesthetics, focusing on a Reaper figure as a protector, and collaborate with the AI in real-time to refine the concept, ultimately deciding on the group name "The Fire Reapers" and the Latin motto "Morris Ignis" ("Death to Fire"). The discussion highlights the efficiency of using AI for creative framework development and branding execution. Key Takeaways: Structure complex professional knowledge by using AI to assemble your "brain dump" into a correct and usable framework. Improve client communication by summarizing lengthy technical explanations into concise descriptions that are easily grasped by those with little prior knowledge. Grow the perception of your company by establishing separate divisions for installation, maintenance, and service to create an image of authority and scale. Build internal pride and professionalism by visually recognizing your elite employees with accolades that reflect their high level of mastery and contribution. Maintain a commitment to excellence and growth by striving to constantly get better and encouraging your team to exceed expectations rather than settling for mediocrity.

Our Thursday episode is where analysis turns to speculation. In this week's Breadcrumbs & Broomsticks, Jac and Amy read listener thoughts and spiral (responsibly) through Heir of Fire theories, foreshadowing, and SJM's long-game craft. We unpack the moment Rowan's bite forces Aelin's shift, asking what it reveals about mating bonds, fae dominance, and the anatomy of power. We track how SJM mirrors predator imagery between Rowan, Aedion, and Manon, and how that mirroring hints at future alliances. Listener theories dive into: Whether the barrows creature connects to Erawan's shadow army The bite as a precursor to the blood oath Aedion's loyalty vs Chaol's betrayal, and what each says about class and honor How Manon's first flight parallels Aelin's awakening Why the Sword of Orynth might carry more than ancestral weight Full spoilers through the end of Heir of Fire, and light talk of later Throne of Glass books.

Urban wildfires are rewriting the rules of home insurance, and the details matter more than ever. We sit down with Brittany Martin, Personal Lines Team Leader for CRC's Western Region, to break down the construction features, spacing standards, and modeling tools that are redefining eligibility in California, Colorado, and beyond. From tempered glass and enclosed eaves to ember-resistant vents and Class A roofs, we get specific about what moves the needle with underwriters, and what can push a well-appointed home straight into the E&S market.The conversation turns practical as we map a smart sequence of upgrades during renovations, helping clients elevate materials before renewal crunch time and signal stronger risk control to carriers. We also explore how carriers combine third-party data, AI, and wildfire modeling to evaluate homes at a parcel level. That precision opens doors for case-by-case underwriting even in tough counties with shrinking capacity. Agents will leave with actionable takeaways that can shift accounts from declines to competitive terms.Subscribe for more retail agent insights, share this episode with your team, and leave a review with the wildfire upgrade that delivered the biggest underwriting win for your clients.

Have an idea or tip? Send us a text!The Dead Pixels Society sits down with SPAC's leadership, Coree Cooper and Calvin Harrell Jr., to unpack how a volunteer-driven nonprofit became the world's largest gathering for school, sports, and volume studios—and why its focus on workflows, profitability, and community sets it apart.Harrell describes how SPAC evolved from film-era hotel meetups into a global hub with attendees from Europe, South Africa, and beyond. We get specific about what matters to operators right now: RFPs, data and capture workflows, ecommerce platforms, on-demand print, AI-enhanced processes, and the sales moves that win and retain school and league accounts. The SPAC agenda is designed for impact—Schools 101, Sports 101, and Volume 202 for scaling teams; a dedicated trade show with 100+ volume-first vendors; and a Workflow Walkthrough that lets you compare cameras, lighting, backgrounds, extraction, and software in side-by-side pods before you buy.Cooper also dives into SPAC's culture of access: scholarships for first-timers, 15-minute coaching sessions that often turn into year-long mentorships, and the live-voted King/Queen of the Hill session where peers pitch ideas that save or make real money. Expect smart ways to raise average order value with banners, ornaments, and yearbooks, plus a look at a new digital yearbook solution set to debut.

Send us a textThe fall from honor to ashes is not just Job's story; it's the story we fear most and the test that can shape us best. We open with a stark portrait of a revered man reduced to painful boils and social exile, then ask the uncomfortable questions our culture avoids: What do we see when a leader loses everything, and what does that reveal about us?A physician on our panel brings rare but relevant medical context by explaining “Job syndrome,” clarifying how severe eczema and staph boils can make a person nearly unrecognizable. While not claiming a diagnosis for Job, the clinical detail deepens our compassion and anchors the ancient text in real human pain. From there, we step into the quiet places where faith meets suffering: stories of bedside prayers, cancer patients facing death with calm trust, and the humility that comes from admitting we don't control the terms of our trials.We wrestle with sovereignty, integrity, and stigma. Job's ashes become a lesson in humility rather than humiliation, a reminder that character can remain when comfort is stripped away. We challenge easy debates and urge believers to prepare for harder days with unity, Scripture, and habits that bend our hearts toward God's will. Fire reveals foundations; if we build with love, courage, and truth, the blaze refines rather than ruins. Through candid panel reflections and rich scripture, we explore how to suffer well, hold one another up, and keep our eyes on a hope that outlasts the night.If this conversation strengthens your resolve or gives language to your own season of testing, share it with a friend, subscribe for the next study, and leave a review so others can find it.

Episode 271 - Fire, Desire, Theosis What do you really hunger and thirst for? As the friars continue through the Franciscan Lent, they dive deep into the Beatitude: "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied." This conversation is about holy desire, the kind that burns, refines, and draws us closer to God Himself. They unpack what it means to let go of lesser hungers, to purify our desires, and to rediscover the fire that leads to union with God. From St. Francis' radical poverty to our own longing for holiness, the friars remind us that this journey isn't about doing more, but actually about becoming more like Him. Join us as we learn to hunger for what truly satisfies, the very life of God alive within us.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2021 conversation with Richard Marx. ABOUT RICHARD MARX:Grammy-winning performer Richard Marx has sold more than 30 million albums as an artist, but if you only know him from late 1980s ballads such as “Hold on to the Nights” and “Right Here Waiting,” you only know part of the story. A prolific songwriter, Marx has landed fourteen songs at the top of various Billboard charts, and has written a #1 single in each of the last four decades. His genre-crossing songwriting success includes “What About Me” and “Crazy,” which Kenny Rogers carried to the top of the Adult Contemporary and Country charts, respectively; “Edge of a Broken Heart,” a hit for the female metal band Vixen; “This I Promise You,” a Top 5 pop single for NSYNC that stayed at #1 on the Adult Contemporary Chart for 13 weeks; Josh Groban's debut single “To Where You Are,” which also reached #1; and “Dance With My Father,” which Richard wrote with the song's performer, Luther Vandross, and which earned the pair the prestigious Grammy Song of the Year award in 2004. Additionally, Richard has scored three major hits with Keith Urban: the Top 5 “Everybody,” and the #1 singles “Better Life” and “Long Hot Summer.”  Despite all his songwriting success, however, Marx is best known as a singer and performer who today jokes about his 80s hairstyle and of-the-era drum sounds. But the songs are undeniable, all of which Marx wrote and produced himself. His debut self-titled album yielded four Top 5 singles: “Don't Mean Nothing,” “Should've Known Better,” “Endless Summer Nights,” and “Hold on to the Nights.” His follow-up, 1989's Repeat Offender, was even more successful, going quadruple-platinum and earning two number one Billboard pop singles, “Satisfied” and “Right Here Waiting,” in addition to the Top 5 “Angelina.” More hits followed, including “Keep Coming Back,” “Hazard,” “Take This Heart,” “Now and Forever,” and “Until I Find You Again.” In addition, Richard's songs have been integral to a number of successful film soundtracks. He earned a Grammy nomination for his contributions to St. Elmo's Fire; scored a Top 10 pop hit with “Surrender to Me,” which Ann Wilson of Heart and Robin Zander of Cheap Trick recorded for the movie Tequila Sunrise, and wrote “At the Beginning,” a hit duet for the film Anastasia that Richard performed with Donna Lewis. Over the course of his career, Richard's songs have been recorded by Barbra Streisand, The Tubes, Sarah Brightman, Monica, Natalie Cole, Michael Bolton, Paulina Rubio, Emerson Drive, Chicago, Billy Ray Cyrus, Vince Gill, Kenny Loggins, LeAnn Rimes, Celine Dion, Julio Iglesias, Berry Manilow, Daughtry, Vertical Horizon, Lifehouse, Dave Koz, Jennifer Nettles, Ringo Starr, and many others. His memoir, Stories to Tell, is available from Simon & Shuster.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Recorded live in Bali, at the FI Freedom Retreat (the 2nd one in 2025), Jackie teams up with Doc G from the Earn & Invest Podcast. They ask the spiciest FI question of all—not 'can I retire yet?' but 'should I?' Three very different journeys take the mic: Fara's 'accidental FIRE' at 47 and her boomerang back to a cause-driven job (then boomerang away again) Gene's post-quit LinkedIn relapse and the search for purpose without a W-2 Rachel Richard's pivot from real estate and a viral brand (Money Honey Rachel) to doing the inner work, ditching external validation, and—surprise—catching the spark to write again. Stay for the after-show hot seat where more attendees share their own takes on whether they'll ever 'work' again. Hear from Scott, Dave, Sophie, Selene, Justin, Kim, and Amy.   ===DEALS & DISCOUNTS FROM OUR TRUSTED PARTNERS===

Bill Bengen, the creator of the 4% rule, joins us to revisit one of the most important ideas in financial planning and retirement research. In this conversation, he explains the origins of the 4% rule, how his thinking has evolved over 30 years, and why he now believes retirees can safely withdraw closer to 4.7% — or even more — under certain conditions.
