It's completely normal to suffer and experience hardships in your teenage years. For Pat, being small and immature was a major struggle. Also, he suffered from severe OCD as a child. Sometimes we need to learn from adults that aren't our parents. Find a mentor and or someone that understands and accepts you for you.The Ideal Team Player: Humble, Hungry, Smart.

This week’s guest is Ryan Conner, my old roommate from my short stint living in Hoboken, NJ. We discuss the very early days of Ryan’s career and my absolute favorite joke of his (it’s about me.)Pat House is a nationally touring comedian based out of Philadelphia.For Pat, every day life seems to be a great source of material. Spending years bartending and interacting with strangers, he was constantly intrigued, amazed and extremely annoyed at the ridiculous things people say and do in public. With matter-of-fact delivery and sharp observations, Pat's material is relatable to anyone tortured by the absurdity of others.A regular performer in comedy clubs, casinos and theaters all over the country, he has been a choice opener for Sebastian Maniscalco, Tom Segura and Dan Cummins. Pat has performed at Funny Or Die's Oddball Festival, has been featured by The Metro and Philly Weekly. He recorded his first album Biggest Thing in 2013 and his latest album Heard Enough Yesterday in 2018, both albums are now available on iTunes and Amazon.Originally from Washington DC, Ryan Connor has been on the late late show with James Corden and was a top 10 finalists on the most recent season of NBC’s last comic standing, where judge Norm Macdonald called his first set “the best 3.5 minutes I’ve seen in five years” in addition to touring the country during stand up, Ryan is a writer producer for MTV’s "Ridiculousness" and was a contributing writer for two seasons of TruTV's "Billy on the Street" you can hear his album"Live From an Old Prison" anywhere albums can be heard"

Recently, I have been thinking a lot about the fact that I live in a grieving home, and I am continuing to raise my children in a grieving home and that there is nothing that I can do to change that. It is just not the same place that it was two years ago. Don't get me wrong - we still laugh have fun together, but the grief is always there. The tears are just around the corner, and I feel like my children especially don't talk to me as they once did, fearing that they might 'get me upset.'  My oldest daughter is moving to college in two short weeks and seems so anxious to get out of this house. I find myself wondering if she would be feeling the same way if her brother was alive and we were not so broken. Perhaps it would have made no difference, but I cannot help but wonder. Today's guest, Pat, grew up in a grieving home as well, although it took her over 50 years to realize this fact. She never knew her brother, Greg, who was born 6 years before her own birth and died at 4 months of age. She found out that he existed only by accident as a young girl. He was never talked about in the family by anyone. She found his gravestone in the cemetery by herself and would even visit and talk with him without the knowledge of her parents or siblings. An interesting thing happened in 2012, however - the year that Greg would have turned 60. Pat's mother, who was now in her mid-80's, began to really open up and talk to Pat about Greg. She talked about what it was like for her to suddenly lose her previously healthy baby. She talked about her guilt, her anger, the lack of support from others and all of those other pent up emotions. With the sharing of her heart, Pat saw years of stress and tension just fall away. She witnessed her mom really begin the process of healing that had not really even begun despite the passing of 60 years. Pat began to realize why her home was always just a little more sad and a little more quiet than it should be with four kids in the home. Someone had always been missing, and no one in her family had ever acknowledged it. A major turning point in her mother's grief journey came during a trip to the bank where the bank teller innocently asked her how many children she had. For the very first time ever, she proclaimed, "Five." Ever since Pat had been born 54 years ago, the answer to that question had been inaccurate. What a relief that must have been! For sixty years, that question must have pained her as it does me, knowing that the number that she was sharing was not really true. These months of talking with her mom and grief changed Pat as well. She had always known that she was a good listener and had been transitioning her career to become a life coach. She soon realized, however, that she did not simply want to be a life coach. She needed to become a grief coach. She needed to help grieving people face their grief and learn to live with it, in order to help as many grieving homes as possible. Recently, she even published a book, How Do I Survive: 7 Steps to Living After Child Loss, which can be found free on her website, HealingFamilyGrief.com. Yes, I am living in a grieving home and raising children in a grieving home, but isn't everyone doing that to a certain extent? Grief is a part of life and love, and no one can truly escape it forever. Certainly, I would have liked to protect my family from having to live this way, but I could not. This experience will mold and shape them, but that molding and shaping is not exclusively bad. As I feel that I am a more compassionate person, the rest of my family will be as well. For Pat, growing up in a grieving home eventually helped her find her true purpose in life. Perhaps, it will do the same for my family.

It’s November so we’re going for a Fiction theme for NaNoWriMo. Zane goes back to one of the originals in podcast fiction land with Rabbits, Liz looks at an audio drama designed to create awareness of homelessness through storytelling with Baby It’s Cold Outside and Patrick gets down with his inner and outer nerd with The Glass Cannon Podcast. Then it’s on to last week’s reviews!Liz Recommends - Baby it’s Cold Outsidehttps://www.crisis.org.uk/get-involved/podcastChris O’Dowd and Anne-Marie Duff star in this three act radio drama that delves into the difficulties faced by those who find themselves homeless, especially around the holidays. Liz was particularly tickled with this one because not only was it a good dramatic production, but it was created with crisis.org.uk to raise funds for the homeless. Liz thinks using theatre and drama for social good is very good indeed.“Written by award winning screenwriter Regina Moriarty and directed by Virginia Gilbert, the show is a thought-provoking journey, finding humour in the darkness whilst hitting home the impact of homelessness in the UK.“Baby, It's Cold Outside was developed by Duck Soup Films, in association with Crisis. It marks the launch of Fremantle's scripted podcast label, Storyglass, which will commission and develop original scripted ideas from storytellers around the world.”For Both: listen to the whole thing from the start. It’s short.https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/baby-its-cold-outside/id1445734509Pat Recommends - The Glass Cannon Podcasthttps://glasscannonpodcast.com/Fictional you say? I don't ordinarily deal in fiction when it comes to podcasts but I suppose I'll make an exception considering the circumstances. As you may well know I'm a huge fan of D&D, and this podcast is D&D adjacent. These guys are playing Pathfinder, which is D&D for nerds, it has more nitty gritty rules. They're hilarious and terribly entertaining and there's a plethora of episodes so please enjoy.For Zane and Lizne: Start from the beginninghttps://podcasts.apple.com/nz/podcast/the-glass-cannon-podcast/id1007021910Zane Recommends - Rabbitshttps://www.rabbitspodcast.com/For our Fiction special Zane thought that he would recommend the frist audiodrama serial he ever listened to - Rabbits. Rabbits is a documentary/docudrama that follows one womans investigation of her friends disappearance and her possible involvement in a shadowy secret society that orchestrates a decades-long life and death game.For Pat & Liz: From the start.https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/rabbits/id1209601557?mt=2Subscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

Oh, it's you! Welcome! We've got a wide range of interests with today's recommendations: think science, sex and weird musical stuff. Zane looks at a Luminary exclusive bursting with Hollywood and Broadway star power in Anthem: Homunculus. Liz has a new interest in dating podcasts thanks to her new podcast Ghosts of Boyfriends Past so she's grabbed Frank and Beans from the listener submissions list. And then Patrick looks at a super approachable hard science offering with Sean Carroll's Mindscape (while being very hungover). Then it's on to the reviews of our spooky Halloween ep last week.Liz Recommends - Frank and Beanshttps://www.facebook.com/Frank-Beans-A-Sex-and-Relationship-Podcast-193991901415725/Liz is getting into relationships and dating podcasts now that she's launched her own and Frank and Beans jumped out at her from the submissions pile. She loves the on-air chemistry of show hosts Beth and Brian, and the way they get the male, female perspective on some of the most important issues in the world of love and sex."Frank and Beans is a biweekly podcast that covers the ups and downs of dating, relationships and sex with a female and male perspective, making the world a better place to date."For both: whatever topic takes your fancy.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/frank-and-beans/id1388833923Pat Recommends - Sean Carrol's Mindscapehttps://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/Who's Sean Carrol you say? Only a theoretical physicist from the university of California. He specialises in quantum mechanics, cosnology, and gravity. He also hosts a rip roaring podcast. These episodes are typically an interview with a scientist or a science adjacent professional. It's good gear, get it in ya.For Zane & Liz: It's all goodhttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/sean-carrolls-mindscape-science-society-philosophy/id1406534739Zane Recommends - Anthem: HomunculousThe time has come and Zane is recommending a Luminary exclusive podcast. BUT it is a truly unique and possibly game-changing musical podcast written by John Cameron Mitchell who wrote and originated the the role of Hedwig & the Angry Inch. Anthem: Homunculous is the story of broke, failed artist Ceann Mackay (John Cameron Mitchell) as he launches an app-based “tumor telethon” to crowdfund his survival. Cynthia Erivo, Glenn Close, Nakhane and Patti LuPone co-star in a darkly hilarious musical retelling of Ceann's life as he realizes what’s killing him may be the very thing that saves us all.For Pat & Liz: From the Starthttps://luminarypodcasts.com/listen/john-cameron-mitchell-and-bryan-weller-topic/anthem-homunculus-luminary-exclusive/ab4fffb8-7835-4482-8b48-c9898818768fSubscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

Spoooooooky Halloween everybody! This week's episode is all about the creepy, kooky and downright spooky so we've found podcasts to recommend that are (hopefully) guaranteed to make your skin crawl. Liz recommends an immersive drama featuring some star power with Cynthia Erivo, Carrier; Zane looks to this mortal coil with real-life supernatural encounters in Spooked WNYC; and Patrick takes a look the frightening history behind common folklore with the podcast that spawned an Amazon Prime TV series, Lore.Liz Recommends - Carrierhttps://www.qcodemedia.com/carrierThe main reason Liz got so, erm, carried away with Carrier was the immersive experience factor. Thanks to excellent soundscapes and use of surround sound, you really feel like you're in the episode and experiencing every eerie thing the protagonist is experiencing."What happens when a truck driver picks up a loaded trailer, but has no idea what’s really inside? Tony, Grammy, and Emmy award winner Cynthia Erivo journeys down a dark and lonely highway in this original scripted thriller from Qcode and creator Dan Blank. With immersive audio techniques that create a dimensional listening experience, the audience is strongly advised to use caution, wear headphones if possible, and listen... carefully."For both: It's a serial so start from the start and listen with headphones for a full experience.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/carrier/id1468956772Pat Recommends - Lorehttps://www.lorepodcast.com/Hosted by Aaron Mahnke, Lore is an award-winning, podcast about true life scary stories.

It's Mental Health week at Castology, as the team recommend podcasts to do with all things self-care and psychology. (Also if you need it, this is your weekly reminder to look after yourself!) Liz recommends (possibly the longest titled podcast ever) The Savvy Psychologist's Quick And Dirty Tips For Better Mental Health; Patrick gets zen with a bit of guided meditation thanks to Meditation Oasis; and Zane goes completely left of field and recommends a fictional podcast that takes a peek into the therapy sessions of superpowered people with The Bright Sessions. Then, it's review time for last week's submissions.Liz Recommends - The Savvy Psychologist's Quick And Dirty Tips For Better Mental Healthhttps://www.quickanddirtytips.com/savvy-psychologistThis is one of Liz's favourite podcasts to recommend to friends struggling with the various issues of, you know, living in the world. Got anxiety? Dealing with stress? Wondering if negative thoughts are really that bad? Having weird dreams and wondering if they mean anything? The Savvy Psychologist aka clinical psychologist Dr Jade Wu probably has an episode for you. At only 10-15 mins per episode, this podcast is a legit easy-to-digest snack to help you snap back to reality and regain control of some aspects of your life that may have gotten messy. It's really handy beginner's guide to understanding how we work as emotional human beings. It's like mini on-the-go therapy real talk.For both: Pick a topic you struggle with or want more information on and go go go!https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/savvy-psychologists-quick-dirty-tips-for-better-mental/id803978236Pat Recommends - Meditation Oasishttps://www.meditationoasis.com/Meditation for me is one of those things that I always tell myself I'll start doing on a regular basis. A couple of times a week isn't terribly regular, is it? This podcast helps tremendously though. It's especially good if you've never meditated before or find yourself getting frustrated with your solo attempts. Mary and Richard Maddox bring 40 years of mediation teaching and practice between them, so you can trust you're in good hands. I chose this podcast over others because it seemed to me the most pure, a little bit of preamble and then straight into the mediation, often with a soothing musical accompaniment. There's 60 episodes and they range form 10 - 30 minutes. Stay healthy people, mentally healthy.Zane & Liz: Whatever you do, don't pick the wrong one.https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/meditation-oasis/id204570355Zane Recommends - The Bright Sessionshttp://www.thebrightsessions.com/On this theme week, Zane is presenting to you, The Bright Sessions. The Bright Sessions is a science fiction podcast that follows a group of therapy patients. But these are not your typical patients - each has a unique supernatural ability. The show documents their struggles and discoveries as well as the motivations of their mysterious therapist, Dr. Bright.The show is written and directed by Lauren Shippen and has concluded its main run. However, there is a sequel series planned for release exclusively on Luminary and Lauren Shippen is writing three YA novels in the universe of the show for Tor Teen. The first comes out September 24th, 2019.For Pat & Liz: Start from the beginning but it is easy to jump into.https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-bright-sessions/id1053268058?mt=2Subscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

OMG we did it again, and accidentally have a theme. It's LISTENER SUBMISSION week! That's right, we are bringing you YOUR recommendations (for three of you, anyway). And it just so happens to also have a slighly fail-centric theme. Liz brings the relationship drama with UR Gonna Die Alone, Patrick is all about stuffing up with style with The Art of Failure, and Zane gets on his social justice high horse with In Sickness and In Health.Liz Recommends - UR Gonna Die Alonehttps://urgonnadiealone.libsyn.com/Yes that is the correct spelling for the title and yes it made journo Liz shudder. This podcast is hosted by the super sarcastic team of Christyn Chandler and Jordan Jacobo and is all about trainwreck relationships. That's right, famous relationships that have crashed and burned. Each episode looks at a different couple and tells their story of romantic implosion. If you, like Liz, are a complete dating cynic then this podcast is most certainly for you. Sit back and enjoy the sordid details and schadenfreude.For both: I particularly liked Woody Allen and Mia Farrow, the Tom Cruise series, and Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love.Link https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ur-gonna-die-alone/id1412835724Pat Recommends - The Art of Failurehttps://www.artoffailurepodcast.com/A listener submission you say? Yes I do. My very first, and if you don't like it that's fine, because we learn from our failures... don't we? Wow, what a segue. Host Steve Friedman sits down with an interesting array of guests to discuss failure and what can be gleaned from it. He'll also pop in the occasional minisode to share with you some of his own failures and what he's gotten out of them.For Zane & Liz: Your fate is your ownhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/art-of-failure/id1439857643Zane Recommends - In Sickness and in Healthhttps://insicknessandinhealthpodcast.com/This is another listener submission and Zane LOVES this podcast. It is a podcast about health and social justice. Health is wealth and this podcast is about why some of us have it, and some don’t. Each Season focuses on a different issue (The Opioid Crisis, Gun Violence) which are then split into multi-episode chapters.In Sickness and in Health is produced and hosted by Dr. Celine Gounder. as well as a podcaster Dr. Gounder is a doctor, a disease detective and a storyteller. Dr. Gounder is the CEO/President/Founder of Just Human Productions, a non-profit multimedia organization.For Pat & Liz: These are submitted in subcategories, so pick one that appeals and follow through as far as you wish.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/in-sickness-and-in-health-with-dr-celine-gounder/id1282044849Subscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

Hello, welcome, pull up a chair and settle in for podcast reviews to help you choose. Zane brings the movie lover goods to the table with another listener recommendation: Miscast Commentary. Patrick listens to his girlfriend for once (or lets her do his homework, you decide) and recommends No Filter with Mia Freedman. And Liz listens to her psychologist mama like always and recommends a clinical psychology podcast with an almost voyeuristic twist with Where Should We Begin? With Esther Perel.Liz Recommends - Where Should We Begin? With Esther Perelhttps://www.estherperel.com/podcast"Our original audio series takes you into the antechamber of intimate moments. Here we learn, explore, and experience alongside the couples who have been gracious enough to let us in." This podcast takes the listener into the normally private world of therapy, with audiences able to sit in on a session conducted by world famous psychologist and couples therapy expert Esther Perel. Vulnerabilities are laid bare as we listen to situations unfold on the therapists couch in what essentially amounts to single session case studies of those involved. YES the participants applied to be a part of this so they are aware they are being recorded, and yes sometimes listening in can be a confronting experience but interjections by Esther explaining what can be gleaned from each episode is a rich well from which to draw emotional sustenance and learning.For both: Pick an episode title that appeals to you. Each ep is a self-contained single therapy session.Link https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/where-should-we-begin-with-esther-perel/id1237931798Pat Recommends - No Filter with Mia Freedmanhttps://www.mamamia.com.au/podcasts/no-filter/No Filter is candid conversations with people that count. That's what it says on the website anyway. I'm inclined to agree. Maybe 'candid conversations that make you cry' could work. I cried in one of the episodes. Renowned journalist Mia Freedman sits down with a vast array of people for roughly an hour and gets into the nitty gritty. There doesn't theem to be a theme other than unabashedness and honesty, and honestly, that's enough for me.For Zane & Liz: Gabbie Stroud & Dr Naomihttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/no-filter/id995159486Zane Recommends - Miscast Commentary Reviewhttp://www.miscastcommentary.com/Miscast Commentary is about a pair of friends providing full length commentary for the movies (or the types of movies) that they watched growing up together. They talk trivia, personal stories and much more. The format is a very simple but but effective one. That of an audio commentary that the hosts record as they watch the movie. So, if you choose, you can watch along with them as they make jokes and share information about the film!For Pat and Liz: Pick an episode that appeals!https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/miscast-commentary/id1145697204Subscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

Liz, Zane and Patrick are all actors (bloody actors!) so they've decided to recommend podcasts with a theatrical inclination this week. Zane is all about the improvised comedy podcast Hello From The Magic Tavern, Liz flexes her musical muscles with 36 Questions: The Podcast Musical and Patrick gets into the acting process with Inside Acting. Then as always we all take turns reviewing what was recommended last week.Liz Recommends - 36 Questions: The Musical Podcasthttps://www.twoupproductions.com/36-questions"In this three-part podcast musical starring Jonathan Groff and Jessie Shelton, a couple attempts to bring their marriage back from the brink of divorce using 36 revealing questions designed to make strangers fall in love." Liz is so bloody happy this podcast exists and thinks more people trying to get their work seen and heard by the wider public should turn to the wonderful medium of podcasts rather than expecting to get Broadway money straight away. This podcast is literally a musical, just sans a stage or visual performances. The story is told with an inventive device to make all that not necessary. Just characters, with songs and a whole lot of feelings.For both: Start from the start because it's literally a musical in three acts.Link https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/36-questions-the-podcast-musical/id1248086475Pat Recommends - Inside ActingThis little number comes from Trev and AJ, two L.A. based actors who wanna get inside their craft. That's just what they do each episode, often with other actors. They've been lucky enough to host such talented fellows as J.K. Simmons and Jenna Fischer. Unfprtunatley the podcast is no longer producing new episodes but there is a plethora of episodes for you to choose from should you wish.For Zane & Liz: J.K. Simmon and Kevin SorboZane Recommends - Hello From The Magic Tavernhttps://hellofromthemagictavern.com/OR the WIKI http://magictavern.wikidot.com/Hello from the Magic Tavern is a podcast about Arnie, a human from Chicago who has fallen through a magical rift behind a Burger King into the land of Foon. Since he has his podcasting equipment with him and he's getting a weak WiFi signal from Burger King through the rift, he decided to host a weekly podcast from The Vermilion Minotaur where he interviews the strange people and creatures he meets. His co-hosts are Usidore, a wizard, and Chunt, a changeling currently in the form of a badger. Takes place in the town of Hogsface, and are on a quest to defeat The Dark Lord.It is an improvised scene podcast, each unique scene adding to the overall story of Arnie in Foon.For Pat: 89 - Jyn'Leeviyah the Red (w/ Felicia Day)For Liz: 95 - Tom the Spyhttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/hello-from-the-magic-tavern/id975078285Subscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

Here we are, just for you. We do the hard work of finding new podcasts for your aural pleasure so you don't have to. This week Zane is recommending Dragon Friends, Liz is putting forward Deadly Manners and Patrick is all about them Tiny Desk concerts. And stick around after the recommendations for the reviews of last week's podcast offerings.Liz Recommends - Deadly Mannershttps://deadlymanners.libsyn.com/Do you like theatre? Radio plays? Camp murder mystery drama and noirish intrigue? Then this is right up your alley. A short radio play series featuring Kristen Bell, RuPaul, Michelle Visage, Ross Matthews and more, Deadly Manners is a schlocky whodunnit in the style of And Then There Were None/Cluedo etc. Will you guess who the killer is? And why? Who knows! But you'll have fun listening to the over-the-top yet simultaneously realistic (yes, somehow both) performances, and all the Agatha Christie-style melodrama you can handle.For both: You guessed it, it's another serial so start from the start and listen to as many as you wish.https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/deadly-manners/id1289105780Pat Recommends - Tiny Deskhttps://www.npr.org/series/tiny-desk-concerts/My third NPR podcast is quite a bit different from the other two. Tiny Desk has artists (well known and sometimes often unknown) perform a little concert for those lucky enough to be in the room. The rest of us just have to settle with listening or watching online. That's basically it though, roughly 20 minutes of beautiful music. I've found this to be a great place to discover new music as well as see some of my favourite artists perform at their best.For all of you: St Paul & The Broken Bones, Daniel Caesar, Anderson Paak, Rhye, Noname, Leon Bridgeshttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/tiny-desk-concerts-video/id362115318Zane Recommends - Dragon Friendshttps://www.thedragonfriends.com/episodes/podcast/This is a podcast that Zane found doing research into the possibility of a live Dungeons and Dragons show, then got hooked. Dragon Friends is a monthly comedy show and podcast where comedians muddle through their first Dungeons & Dragons adventure campaign. The rules are... lax. The stories are... muddled? But the cast are very funny and definitely do not let up the whole way through the show. It DOES have a tendency to be a bit in-jokey, so go back as far as you can and start the adventure with them.For Pat & Liz: Start with a season break! or go back as far as you can.https://open.spotify.com/show/5oaRbBlvaAkuEE4cILfZdkSubscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

It's time for more Castology! Are you ready? Are you really? Because we are CHANGING IT UP this week. That's right, from this episode we'll have our recommendations first up, then stick around for our reviews from last week's offerings. This week, Pat recommends one of his favourite ever podcasts, Congressional Dish, Zane brings a listener submission - Dead Ladies Show Podcast - to the table, and Liz looks at another true crime phenomenon in Dr Death.Liz Recommends - Dr DeathLiz should get some sort of award for recommending so many Wondery podcasts. This week it's all about Dr Duntsch aka Dr Death."33 Patients. A Charming Surgeon. A Spineless System.We’re at our most vulnerable when we go to our doctors. We trust the person at the other end of that scalpel. We trust the hospital. We trust the system. Dr. Christopher Duntsch was a neurosurgeon who radiated confidence. He claimed he was the best in Dallas. If you had back pain, and had tried everything else, Dr. Duntsch could give you the spine surgery that would take your pain away. But soon his patients started to experience complications. And all they had to protect them was a system ill equipped to stop the madness. From Wondery, the network behind the hit podcast Dirty John, DR. DEATH is about a medical system that failed to protect these patients at every possible turn. Reported and hosted by Laura Beil."For both: This is a serial podcast so ya gotta start from the start.Link: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/dr-death/id1421573955Pat Recommends - Congressional DishOK. This is my baby. Not really. It's host Jennifer Briney's baby I guess. But I like to think I've been there since the shower. This woman is one of my heroes. Since 2012 she has been reading the bills that pass through the legislative branch of the United States Government. It's a dirty job, but no one was doing it. Not even the members of the branch, really. This is the raw data. Who is taking money from who, how much and what bills are being put forward as a result. If you want to narrow your news streams to escape the madness of the world I would still urge you to keep this one flowing. This podcast has the potential to change the world.For Zane & Liz: Pick a more recent episode, if you like it go back further. See how deep the rabbit hole goes.https://congressionaldish.comZane Recommends - Dead Ladies Show Podcasthttps://deadladiesshow.com/Zane is so excited to recommend this submission! The Dead Ladies Show (and podcast) is all about women who achieved great things against all odds. The live show happens every two months or so at ACUD, Berlin, and celebrates ladies who were fabulous while they were alive, in English and in German and these shows are recorded and released as a podcast.

Controversy abounds as the team reviews last week's podcast offerings. Which of the podcasts got our Castologists in a tizz? You'll have to listen to find out. Then, we back away from potential blows just in time to recommend new podcasts for your ears to enjoy: Imagined Life from Liz, Revisionist History from Patrick and NRIWoman Podcast from Zane (a reader submission!).Liz Recommends - Imagined Lifehttps://wondery.com/shows/imagined-life/A delightful podcast that's part story, part history and part game. "Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to walk in the shoes of a legend and not even realize it? IMAGINED LIFE takes you there.Each episode guides listeners on an immersive journey through the surprising moments and challenges that shaped someone’s life before they were famous. Clues about your identity are dropped along the way, but only at the end will you learn who “you” are.Part mystery, part deeply immersive story, and part inspiration for how to weather life’s unexpected trials, Imagined Life shows just how connected we all are."Liz and Zane have taken to messaging each other to start every new ep at the EXACT same time to try to see who is first at guessing who the "you" this week is. (Zane normally wins because let's face it, he has an encyclopedic knowledge on pretty much everything.)For both: The Performer, The Trailblazer, The Rebel, The Officerhttps://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/imagined-life/id1439810326?mt=2Pat Recommends - Revisionist HistoryMalcollm Gladwell may be a familiar name to many of you. He's an esteemed author, journalist, public speaker, and as of 2016 a podcaster. Each episode he'll invite listeners along to an adventure through an often obscure part of history to explore a person, event, or idea through a novel lens.For Zane & Liz: Whatever you like the sound of.http://revisionisthistory.comZane Recommends - NRIWoman Podcasthttps://nriwoman.com/Another Submission from Zane! NRI (Non-Resident of India) Woman Podcast began as a Facebook page in 2016 by two close friends, Bettina Tauro and Ninorah Brookshire. Both Indians by birth but living outside of India. It began with the intention of starting conversations with other like-minded women in the Middle East and around the world. Each week they chat with guests who share their story. Conversations cover topics ranging from family, marriage, career, kids to fashion and more.For Pat: 27 A Girls FaithFor Liz: 26 Her STEMhttps://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/n-r-i-womanSubscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

Happy April Fool's Day! Our Castologists jokingly thought it would be funny to do a Religion theme on this prankiest of days because it seemed like a good idea at the time. And because none of them are remotely religious they've uncovered some podcasts with some sort of spiritual component... Also it's nearly Easter so just go with it OK? Liz found enlightenment in the words of J.K. Rowling with Harry Potter and the Sacred Text, Zane gets down to worshipping false gods with Zealot, and Patrick gets controversial with The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast. Liz Recommends - Harry Potter and the Sacred Text"On this podcast, we ask: What if we read the books we love as if they were sacred texts?"This podcast is all about looking at the Harry Potter book series as if it were a sacred text and finding out what we can learn from each chapter. The hosts pick a central theme through which to explore the characters and context, always grounding themselves in the text. Through this, they unearth some wonderful lessons we humans can take from the famous plight of the Boy Who Lived. The hosts recommend reading along with them to get the most out of the works but it is not mandatory. For both: Whatever book you remember/chapter/theme takes your fancy.Pat Recommends - The Jordan B Peterson PodcastJordan B Peterson is a clinical psychologist at the University of Toronto. He has quickly become one of the most controversial and polarising figures in popular academia. His podcast usually consists of interviews with guests, Q&A's, and recordings of lectures and conferences. Since this is a very special religious episode I have recommended his psychological significance of the bible series For Zane & Liz: The psychological significance of the bible lectures.https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/the-jordan-b-peterson-podcast/id1184022695?mt=2Zane Recommends - ZealotInfringing a little bit on Liz's territory Zealot is a true crime-ish podcast about cults. This is another Australian podcast, each episode Jo Thornely talks to a comedian/performer friend about a different cult from Scientology to Synanon to The Universe People.

Pat Rigsby is a dad, husband, business coach, author, and entrepreneur who has built over 25 different businesses, including two Entrepreneur Franchise 500 award-winning franchises. He got his entrepreneurial start by opening a personal training business and health club. With no money to get these businesses off the ground, he was living with his family in the basement of a shared home. Before long, he started to have some real success (including moving out of the basement), and looked to expand his businesses. Over the next few years, his small personal training business grew to a network of successful businesses ranging from franchises and certification companies to info-marketing and real estate. Pat then found his true calling (coaching and consulting) and has inspired entrepreneurs through his coaching program and bestselling book The IDEAL Business Formula. He’s shared his journey onstage in front of thousands, and has been featured in Entrepreneur, Men’s Health, USA Today, and hundreds of other media outlets. For Pat, the best part is that he’s been able to do all this while working from home, coaching his kids’ sports teams, and enjoying a type of entrepreneurial lifestyle he never would have thought possible just a few years ago. Today he coaches entrepreneurs to create their Ideal Business, one that allows them to earn more profits, have a greater impact, and enjoy more freedom to enjoy life.   Connect with Pat: LinkedIn - in/patrigsby Twitter - @patrigsby Facebook - /PatRigsbyHQ Instagram - @patrigsby5   PEAK PERFORMANCE NATION A community dedicated to raising your game to the next level by learning how to Execute at the highest level and eliminating the obstacles that keep you from being the leader you were born to be.

It's all happening in episode five, if by all you mean podcasts are getting reviewed. Self-proclaimed Castologists Liz, Zane and Patrick kick off by reviewing last week's first THEMED comedy podcast selections (The Jimmy Dore Show, A Very Fatal Murder and The Film Reroll). Then we scooch on over to this week's also-themed offerings. The theme? Panel discussions! Liz suggests How Did This Get Made, Patrick brings select episodes of the Rubin Report to the table and Zane gets us all thinky with Intelligence Squared Debates. Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM. Subscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY or your podcatcher of choice. (And give us a review, you know you want to).Liz recommends: How Did This Get Made? https://www.hdtgminfo.com/Have you ever seen a movie and thought: "How in the ever-loving fuck did this movie get made?" and yet somehow felt your excitement levels rising at how good/bad this dumpster fire of a film was? Then How Did This Get Made? is gonna be your jam. The panel is most often comprised of actors/comedians Paul Scheer, June Diane Raphael and Jason Mantzoukas but they frequently get their hilarious buddies along to add fuel to their garbage fire of a movie discussions. They watch the flick off-mic, then in the podcast they do a full movie recap and comb through just how shit/excellent the movie really is.For Pat and Zane: Pretty much any episode that features movies that grab or intrigue you. Personal faves include Con Air, Look Who's Talking Too and Skyscraper.http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/how-did-this-get-made/id409287913Pat Recommends - The Rubin Report (Since it sometimes has panel discussions) https://daverubin.com/The second disaffected liberal in a row. Dave Rubin and this show used to be part of The Young Turks but felt the network was getting a little too crazy for him. So now he hosts his own political news talk show. Dave's format usually involves a monologue at the beginning and then a one on one interview. Dave himself identifies mostly as a classical liberal with libertarian leanings. The Rubin Report can also be viewed rather than simply listened to on YouTube.For Liz and Zane: a panel show episode so as to align with this theme.A Bishop and a Rabbi Discuss Religion, the Enlightenment, and Finding Meaning.Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro: Religion, Trans Activism, and Censorship.LIVE from OCON: Jordan Peterson, Dave Rubin, Yaron Brook, Greg Salmierihttps://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/the-rubin-report/id1052842770Zane Recommends - Intelligence Squared U.S. Debates https://www.intelligencesquaredus.org/podcastsI love listening to passionate people talk about what they are passionate about.

Moments to be proud of was a hard episode for both of us to record.  For Pat it was difficult to relive something that caused a lot of raw emotion.  For Glenn it was a high degree of shock to hear the story. This story unfolds around a young boy and his mum that Pat helped train an assistance dog.  Although it sounds simple enough, it came with some heavy baggage for everyone. The story is still far from finished, however there have been some incredible breakthroughs, both via a mothers love and Pats persistence and compassion. Mental illness is a serious issue that has serious implications requiring the right people for treatment.  It also carries a stigma as people don't know how to behave or what to say.  The best thing you can do though is be supportive and not judgemental.  Learn more about it and how you can better help. We have done several episode now on mental health and we will definitely do more in the future for both humans and dogs.  This is why having a contact like Birdy O'Sheedy is so helpful and healthy as she understand both fields. If you don't feel great and the world is getting difficult, speak to someone.  You're not a burden.  You're not invalid.  You have people that love you and people that do want to be supportive. We would love to hear what you moments to be proud of are too. We have several episode as suggested that would be worth listening to, to support the above. http://www.thecanineparadigm.com/2018/11/24/episode-53-a-birdys-eye-view-on-anxiety/

When Pat Samaddar moved from India to Krakow 11 years ago, she experienced a one-woman cultural revolution—she’d left all her friends and a high-powered career in software, and didn’t speak a word of Polish to boot. But living outside her comfort zone proved to be a personal awakening. Now, she’s the president of the International Women’s Association Krakow, works only on her own terms, and has raised kids who love pierogis as much as her dal. For Pat, culture is a tool, not a rule.

Is simplier always better?  What about in songwriting?  The latest Luke Bryan song is put to the test!  For Carrie Underwood it's making her bed.  For Cody all of her money has to be facing the same way.  For Pat it's the gas pump: it has to end on an even number.  What are you OCD about?  Some of the answers, particularly Lyndsay and Lori are fantastic.  And what country star almost got thrown out of his daughters 7 and 8 year old softball games?  

I see people who think the "Holy Grail" of podcasting is sponsorship. Now I have sponsors on my show, but when I listen to The Feed From Podcast Media Host Libsyn.com that less than 10% of podcasters get 5,000 downloads or more (as of May 2018). But, what if you did. An old holdover from the radio is selling advertisements by the download. CPM stands for the price for 10000 downloads. These range from $20-%50. So for this example let's use $35/1000 downloads. One episode a week (four episodes a month). That means (5000 downloads multiplied by 4 weeks) you have 20,000 downloads per month. If you multiply 20,000 by .035 (which is $35/1000 to get the price of a single download) and you end up with $700 for the month ($175/episode). Now, this is great if this is a side hustle, but if you're trying to feed a family making $8,400 a YEAR is an issue. What makes it worse, is that some "Everybody gets a sponsor" companies that use Dynamic Ad Injection are paying $1.50 for 1000 downloads (and no that is not a typo - more on that in a later episode). Let's Look at Two Highly Successful Podcast Income Reports I decided to look at the breakdown of two highly successful podcasters. John Lee Dumas, and Pat Flynn (who both publish their income reports). I used the latest reports available. For John, that was April 2018. For Pat that was December 2017. John Lee Dumas April 2017 Podcast Income Report Pat Flynn December 2017 Podcast Income Report Combine The Two Reports My point is that podcast sponsorship should be one of the ways and not THE way to "break out of the 9 to 5 cubical.

Hey this is Dave Negri from Contractors Secret Weapon, and for today’s podcast we will be talking with  Pat Morlando. Pat’s been in the business for over 20 years. He was also a sub constructor. In reality you have to be in your toes because you have 2 customers, everything in your business translates in your business. No one knows the food industry like Pat Morlando. Now the extensive experience he had helps him with his current business. He provides quality experience and service towards his customer and to his staff as well. They have over 450 employees and extends to 5 states. It’s all about the service industry now. In today’s market, in every level, they want to understand the vision but also match the personality of the client. If every one of those pieces, the vision of the client will be gone. In each market you have 2 customers, and each should be treated equally and as important.  Meet or beat the expectations of the clients is a must. For Pat, they hire the attitude and train the skill. Product is the product. If you don’t provide good service it won’t be a good product. It will just be so-so for the customers which may not be good. In the party business, they need someone who is very outgoing. For the most part, they will be trained their way. In most industries, it’s getting harder and harder to find qualified employees. Matching an event personality with staff personality ensures that success. The vision has to become the reality. They have systematically grown every year. As a business owner, no matter what happens you need to have profit. The challenging things as far as the programs they have has been, needing an employee that fits the needs of the target market they have. Finding the individual that fits the needs of the company is going to be tough but with the training program this helped the company earn more. Creating an image, going in prepared just like solving the problem before going there. This is something that they represent towards the market that are targeting and servicing. The whole outcome is to make sure that the company invests on their employees because they are hiring for the future. If the employee is not an asset they are not good for the company. Because if not then they are not valuable to you, to the company and to the customers. The company has the ability to put them to work but if the employee is not able to meet the expectations of the company then they have placed that opportunity to the wrong people. Reaffirm the commitment to make every effort to accelerate the achievement of the company so to be able to match the vision, to develop the goals. This is to also deepen the relationship of the owner to their employees. It’s about the customer’s the bottom line. It reflects on Pat’s company. “Servicing the hospitality industry is not only our Mission, but our Passion!” this is the motto they have and you can also see this in their website. They have franchised their companies, and what they’re looking for was group of business that they love what they want. Enjoying their team. Expand their branch nationwide. It’s a good business opportunity.   You may visit this website to know more details about Steve Smith: www.enjoyyourparty.com       There are so many ways to do almost free marketing you just have to think about it or you could just go to the web site and pick up the free download.     4 Hot Marketing Strategies That Can Flood Your Business with Customers   If you have a story to tell and would like to be a guest on this podcast email my assistant Shell at Shell@contractorssecretweapon.com   and she will send you our guest sheet.       Our sponsors     Would you like your phone to ring more with qualified buyers people looking to buy now? Then let’s make that happen.

Pat Bojorquez is a Computer Records Specialist who works for the Sunnyside Unified School District in Tucson, Arizona. Over her 30 years at Sunnyside, she's learned that great leaders greet you with a smile every morning and have a way of making their organization feel like a family. For Pat, that means a lot, and as she puts it, she “wouldn’t leave this job for one that pays three times as much.” That’s how much the atmosphere and leaders at Sunnyside means to her.

A game we previously delved into at PAX, Pat and Jonny got to deep dive and fully experience 'Slime-San", the super gross and tough as nails platformer where you play as an animated ball of slime working your way through a giant worms intestinal tract. For Pat, this brought bad memories of old Ren&Stimpy games that went out of their way to prove they hated children. For Jonny, it carried happier thoughts of playing Super Meat Boy, dying repeatedly and cursing to the heavens. Despite the two points of view on the matter, both really enjoyed the game. What made it stand out? And should YOU spend your money to be grossed out and frustrated, too?
