    Tyler Forbes got into hunting just 5 years ago and is the best example of shortening the learning curve by putting in tons of hard work. In just 5 years he's turned into a highly knowledgeable and successful hunter which culminated in him killing a World Class 180+ inch buck this season in a hard state to do so. Seeing proof of a buck jumping from 100 inches to 135, then to possibly 185 is proof of what passing younger deer can lead to. We believe that each person's individual hunting journey is unique and don't advocate for everyone to pass deer in all circumstances. We think that everyone should do what their heart desires and make the choice that makes them happy! TO SUPPORT OUR SHOW Come to Huntstock!

    The Third Story Podcast with Leo Sidran

    British singer-songwriter dodie has spent half her life in public. Long before algorithms and engagement metrics ruled the day, she began posting homemade songs and videos on YouTube as a teenager from Essex. Her soft voice, self-effacing humor, and unfiltered honesty drew millions of viewers who watched her grow up online—sharing heartbreaks, mental-health struggles, and moments of joy in real time. Fifteen years later, that same authenticity anchors her second album, Not For Lack of Trying (Decca / Verve), a project that finds her looking inward with more clarity and balance than ever. Produced with Joe Rubel, the record feels both intimate and expansive, blending hushed guitars, clarinets, and a subtle electronic pulse beneath lyrics about healing, boundaries, and learning to feel okay. Here she talks about what it means to grow up online, how she learned to protect her private life, and the long road to emotional equilibrium. She opens up about the strange feedback loop of being praised for her pain, the decision to step back from constant posting, and the discovery that medication, therapy, and time have finally helped her feel “a bit better.” She discusses the making of Not For Lack of Trying, her collaboration with friends like Greta Isaac and producer Joe Rubel, and the sonic choices that define her sound - the low rumble of drop-tuned guitars and the warmth of analog synths supporting a voice that seems to hover just above the mix. “When I'm writing,” she says, “I'm not aiming for how it sounds. I'm aiming for how it feels—I just want to get goosebumps.” Along the way, dodie reflects on the evolution from being a “special girl” with a ukulele and a webcam to becoming a full-fledged artist with more than a billion streams, seven million followers, and a place on Forbes' 30 Under 30 list. Through it all, she's still trying, still curious, still kind, still chasing that feeling. www.third-story.com www.substack.leosidran.com www.wbgo.org/podcast/the-third-story

He started his career in hospitality, having founded the 34-restaurant group, Peasant Restaurants, serving guests from the 1970s until the mid ‘90s. Concerned by trends of poor human health and a degraded environment, Steve Nygren was on a treadmill trying to effect change but going nowhere. He surrendered to hopelessness and retreated to the countryside on the edge of Atlanta to raise his family. After seven years of retirement while walking the trails, he realized the tentacles of dysfunction could destroy his rural paradise. Rather than retreat further, he launched an effort to save his own backyard expanding the effort to the surrounding 40,000 acres that is now a living laboratory for change offering solutions and hope to communities around the world who are curious about a better future. Steve and Serenbe have been featured in The New York Times, Fast Company, Forbes, Dwell, and Southern Living as a new model for community development. Start in Your Own Backyard Visionary placemaker Steve Nygren chronicles the rise of Serenbe, a pioneering model of biophilic living outside Atlanta, and charts a path for others wishing to challenge the status quo, embrace optimism, and reinvent their communities…and themselves.   For many Americans, life is no longer working. We are increasingly sick, stressed, anxious, and unhappy. Many feel left behind by the economy, disillusioned by once-respected institutions, and helpless in the face of environmental decline. Steve Nygren argues that much of this can be traced to where—and how—we live. By rethinking and reinvesting in our own communities, we can rediscover the joy of connected, meaningful lives for ourselves and future generations.   National bestselling book, Start in Your Own Backyard provides a blueprint for developing sustainable communities where citizens of all generations can thrive, and awe is found in everyday moments, which requires understanding: The unintended consequences of sprawl, and why clustered development supports more green space, more housing, and lower costs Why being disconnected from nature and each other is at the root of many environmental, societal, and health-related woes Tactics to encourage a local food-based economy (and why that matters) How small yards, front porches, and blueberry bushes at crosswalks lead to strong, supportive neighborhoods The benefits of aging in place, and how to nurture connections between uncaged elders and free-range kids Whether you're a placemaker, developer, civic leader, business owner, or parent or grandparent wishing to improve the things that complicate your life, this book is for you. It educates and inspires, demonstrates the impact of local action, and sparks hope that one person can change the world in amazing ways by starting in your own backyard.

    Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss crack open the 2025 Forbes 400 and spot a seismic shift: 71% are now self-made, the cutoff is a record $3.8B, and the newest entrants aren't entertainers or app celebrities—they're infrastructure builders (data labeling, energy export, freight platforms, drive-thru formats). The guys lay out a practical framework—B.O.T. (Bottlenecks, Order Flow, Tools)—to find, buy, and scale the “unsexy” choke points where outsized wealth is created. Expect candid takes on ethics and regulation, tax advantages vs. complexity, and why tech alone isn't a moat in the AI era.Key TakeawaysQuiet wealth > spotlight wealth: New billionaires control choke points (permits, labeled data, logistics, power access) instead of chasing virality.Tech isn't the moat—distribution is: If you're just a feature, the platform will build you tomorrow. Own users, data, or order flow.B.O.T. framework:Bottlenecks — Find scarce inputs (power near substations, HIPAA-grade data, specialized trades), professionalize small operators, exit to strategics.Order Flow — Aggregate fragmented brokers (freight, dirt hauling, niche staffing), add AI matching, monetize spread & float.Tools — Bundle niche AI/DevOps tools (monitoring, RLHF QA, rights mgmt.) into suites; sell shovels for the gold rush.Ethics & risk: Bottlenecks ≠ monopolies; add real value or get routed around. Order-flow plays invite regulatory heat—design accordingly.Luck favors the paranoid: Nvidia's rise = timing + category choice. Choose your competitor carefully; it defines your playing field.Episode Highlights00:00 – Cold open: dentists, numb faces, and a record-breaking Forbes 400.03:10 – The stat no one's talking about: 71% self-made, $6.6T total wealth, $3.8B cutoff.08:20 – Why opportunity has more leverage than ever (AI + democratized tools), but tech alone won't save you.12:45 – B is for Bottlenecks: picks & shovels thinking; mini-moats in permits, medical transcripts, underground tank installers for data centers.22:10 – Ethics check: bottlenecks vs. monopolies; how to add value without getting regulated to death.27:05 – O is for Order Flow: Robinhood's play, freight/dirt broker roll-ups, AI pricing/matching, monetizing spread & float.36:40 – The toll-booth trap: if you don't add value, the sides will route around you.41:30 – T is for Tools: why toolmakers outlive trends; bundling niche AI devtools; the Nvidia, Intel, AMD cautionary tales.53:10 – Choosing competitors = choosing categories; luck + timing still matter.57:45 – Operator wrap: how to map your business to B.O.T. this quarter.Memorable Quotes“If all you are is a feature, you don't have a business—you have a countdown clock.”“Quiet wealth lives in the choke points everyone else ignores.”“Bottlenecks aren't monopolies—create value or the market will route around you.”“Tech isn't a moat.

    Prospects decide who to trust long before they ever call, and the media they read shapes those choices. We break down a fast, practical PR system for design and remodeling professionals who want to be discovered as experts—without spending five figures a month on an agency. You'll hear why third‑party credibility changes buyer behavior, how quick expert quotes outperform long project pitches for busy editors, and the compounding benefits of press logos and backlinks on your website.We walk through the exact routine that fits real schedules: 20–30 minutes twice a week to scan Qwoted, HARO-style lists, and SOS threads for relevant queries, then craft crisp replies with specific, quotable advice. Along the way, we share real-world wins—early placements in Forbes and the Wall Street Journal—and set honest expectations about the numbers game behind PR. Ten thoughtful submissions might yield one or two features, but those features open doors to higher‑end clients, stronger SEO, and faster sales conversations.If you've wondered what to say, we spell it out: give one sharp takeaway, add a concrete example from your projects, include a short credential line, and link to a relevant page on your site. Keep it simple, be consistent, and run your outreach in one‑ to three‑month sprints so the habit sticks. By the end, you'll have a clear plan to turn your everyday expertise into media coverage, social proof, and a steady flow of better-fit leads.

    Non-Food Franchises: A Shortcut to Entrepreneurship, Wealth & Tax Benefits w/ Jon Ostenson

    When people hear “franchise”, they immediately picture a drive-through window and a fryer in the back. That narrow view hides one of the most accessible and profitable paths to business ownership today: non-food franchising. We've been taught that entrepreneurship means starting from scratch: writing business plans, building systems, and hoping your idea sticks.  Franchising flips that equation. You're not reinventing the wheel; you're stepping into a proven system with training, marketing, and infrastructure already built. The best part?  You can own a business that runs without you being chained to it. The real secret is that most high-income professionals, doctors, executives, and even W-2 employees can buy or build semi-passive franchises that generate cash flow, deliver powerful tax advantages, and diversify their wealth far beyond the stock market.  And yet, most never explore it because they still think of “fast food.” Why is buying a franchise a better path into business ownership? What are the lesser-known benefits you get from this model?  In this episode, I sit down with Jon Ostenson, founder of FranBridge Consulting and author of Non-Food Franchising. We unpack the world of franchises that don't involve burgers or coffee cups. We talk about how to identify the right concept, fund your investment, and leverage the new tax rules that make owning a franchise smarter than ever.  Things You'll Learn In This Episode  -The shortcut to entrepreneurship Most people think you need to invent something new to build wealth. What if the fastest path is owning a system that's already proven to work? -Semi-passive ownership, real results Some franchises thrive even when the owner isn't there daily. How do they do it, and what separates a true “executive model” from wishful thinking? -The hidden tax advantage of business ownership Business owners play by a completely different tax rulebook. How can franchising open those same doors for people still working a W-2 job? -The non-food franchise boom From home services to senior care, boring is the new profitable.

    Summer Crenshaw is the Co-Founder and CEO of the Enterprise Technology Association (ETA), the national leader in AI and emerging technology adoption. She serves on multiple advisory boards and champions innovation, education, and responsible technology adoption. A seasoned tech entrepreneur and strategist, she previously co-founded Tilr, an AI-powered job marketplace recognized by CNBC, Forbes, and VentureBeat. Summer has been featured in major outlets and spoken on national stages, including DisruptHR and Dreamforce. In this episode… Business leaders across industries are responding to AI with a mix of excitement, fear, and uncertainty. Many want to use AI tools to accelerate business goals, yet they also worry about the risks and how these tools could disrupt jobs and existing roles. To move forward, companies need to focus on continuous learning that helps people understand and apply AI responsibly. So how can companies close the skill gaps that limit progress while ensuring their teams continue learning as AI evolves? Accelerating responsible AI adoption starts with education that connects people, communities, and industries. Organizations like the Enterprise Technology Association are helping bridge that gap through AI Week, a fast-moving initiative that brings together local leaders, educators, and companies to share insights for responsible AI adoption. These community-driven gatherings are designed around the industries and priorities of each city, creating programming that makes AI accessible to both technical and non-technical audiences. For companies to succeed, they also need to rethink how they approach governance. Rather than viewing it as a brake that hinders progress, it should serve as a steering wheel that guides teams with implementation and helps them achieve their goals.  In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels chat with Summer Crenshaw, Co-founder and CEO of the Enterprise Technology Association (ETA), about how businesses can accelerate responsible AI adoption through education and collaboration. Summer shares how AI Week launched in just five weeks and scaled across multiple cities by empowering local leaders and creating accessible AI programming. She explains why governance should enable rather than hinder AI implementation and what separates the 5% of successful AI projects from those that fail. Summer also discusses how to prepare for AI in 2026, addressing the shift from theory to measuring human impact.

    Because healthcare today can be increasingly defined as commodified, expedient, financialized, myopic, reductionist and failing to transcend politics, the question of healthcare's ethics or the roll ethics plays should play is increasingly begged. For example, last October Health Affairs launched an “Ethics and Health Systems Change” series that to date has simply complained about private equity and corporate medicine, federal immigration and gender care policies and de-professionalization. What fidelity does healthcare have to normative ethics when, for example, 27 million Americans and counting are uninsured, over 100 million lack a primary care provider and over 90 million cannot afford care if they needed today. Dr. Jain, President and CEO of the SCAN Group and SCAN Health Plan, discusses the causes of healthcare's ethical erosion and how begged ethical issues or questions can be addressed. The two Forbes articles authored by Dr Jain and discussed during this interview are at: https://www.forbes.com/sites/sachinjain/2025/09/22/ethical-erosion-how-good-people-lose-their-way-in-healthcare/ and https://www.forbes.com/sites/sachinjain/2025/01/21/who-me-ethical-erosion-and-the-deafening-silence-of-americas-healthcare-leaders/.

    Most agents are a little freaked out by AI, but here's the truth: it's not here to replace the real estate professional. It's here to replace inefficiency. For years, real estate has rewarded the agents who grind harder, not smarter. The ones who show up earlier, stay up later, and never stop hustling. But the next wave of top producers will be the ones who out-automate everyone else. When most agents hear “AI,” they think job loss. But what if it's actually the key to something real estate's never offered: predictable income and real financial freedom? What if it's the missing link between chaos and consistency in your business? How do we lean into AI and leverage it to run profitable businesses? I was featured on Atlanta real estate broker Glennda Baker's show, Glennda's Gurus.  We talked about how to build a retirement-ready business in a field that doesn't even have pensions. We also discussed how to use AI to scale your brand and influence, and why fear is the biggest wealth killer in real estate right now.   We've been using AI for many years, but companies have been charging us for it. Now we have the choice to use these tools to increase our income, return on investment, and return on time for free. -Marki Lemons Ryhal    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  AI as your income multiplier I boosted my productivity by 261% and my monthly income by 283% by automating repetitive tasks. How can you use AI to do the same, without losing your personal touch? Consistency as your competitive edge Success in real estate isn't about doing more; it's about doing the right things consistently. How can AI help you stay consistent when motivation fades? Automation as your retirement plan Most agents don't have pensions, but technology can help you build one. How can automation create the financial freedom real estate rarely provides? Fear is your biggest opportunity If most agents are too scared to adopt AI, what happens to those who lean in early and master it while others hesitate?   Guest Bio Glennda Baker is an international real estate broker with three decades of expertise, recognized as both a prominent social media influencer and a distinguished thought leader in the field. As a highly respected Atlanta real estate broker, she specializes in residential real estate and has been recognized nationally as one of Newsweek's America's Best Agents.

    Presented by Lauren Stibgen With one-third of our life spent working, it is no wonder we seek friendship and connection from our colleagues. A recent Forbes article from March 2024 titled How Loneliness Can Impact Your Job (And Life) by Tracy Brower says 69% of employees report they are unsatisfied with their social connections at work, and 43% don't feel a sense of connection with their colleagues.[1] Loneliness is universal, and it doesn't hold a title or age. CEOs and assistants are equally impacted by these feelings of disconnection. Since it is subjective, we need never negate our own personal feelings of loneliness or those feelings of a colleague. As followers of Jesus, what does this mean for us? First, what if we are the employee feeling dissatisfied with our social connection at work? Turning to the Word of God can remind us it is our God who sees us in our daily work even when we feel alone. Consider when the woman at the well went to draw water. She went in the middle of the day, the hottest time. Although we are not told about her feelings, we know she went alone because she likely was not accepted by the other Samaritan women. She was alone, and perhaps lonely when she encountered Jesus. He knew the intimate details of her not so perfect life and offered her living water—salvation in him! You can read this story in John 4:4-30. And, what about Hagar? She was sent away, pregnant and alone when she was met by God and felt seen. Read more about Hagar in Genesis 16. The woman at the well and Hagar are reminders that even when we are walking alone, God sees us. Maybe you aren't lonely at work. You have a wonderful social community! As a follower of Jesus, we are called to see others. Just as Jesus saw the woman at the well and God saw Hagar, who do you see in your workplace who could use some social connection? There is a Christian song by Brandon Heath, Give Me Your Eyes with perfect lyrics: “Give me your eyes for just one second, give me your eyes so I can see…”[2] Take a listen. It can encourage you to see those in your workplace that could use you extending your care and connection in that moment! -- [1] Brower, T. (2024, March 21).

    October 20, 2025: In this episode of Future Ready Today, Jacob Morgan breaks down five major stories that show how leadership, learning, and loyalty are being redefined in real time. Korn Ferry reports that 79% of employees say their job isn't what they were promised, revealing a growing gap between expectations and reality. Business Insider finds that white-collar professionals now value employer loyalty more than higher pay, signaling a deeper cultural shift in what workers want from companies. Another Business Insider story by Amanda Hoover explores the rise of “vibe working,” where AI tools reshape how we create, collaborate, and code — but also remind us that real innovation still requires human skill and judgment. Meanwhile, SHRM's State of Recruiting 2025 shows that 69% of organizations are struggling to fill full-time roles, turning hiring into the first real test of the employee experience. And according to Forbes, education systems are falling behind as AI redefines work, leaving both schools and companies scrambling to keep people future ready. Together, these stories reveal a new reality: transparency replaces stability, loyalty outweighs pay, and learning becomes the ultimate competitive edge.
