A listener sent me a message saying I'd lost my spark. That I didn't sound inspired anymore. Honestly... it made me stop and think. In this episode, I unpack why he was partly right. My calling isn't software deals anymore. It's building businesses, solving problems, and showing up for the people who count on me. I also share one AI workflow that's completely changed how I lead AppSumo, why we overreacted to the AI boom, and what happens when you stop chasing every shiny new thing and get back to your core. If you've ever wondered whether you've outgrown your work, this one's for you.  In this conversation, you'll enjoy 3 BIG things: • Why your calling can evolve without losing your purpose • How to course-correct when you realize you've drifted too far from your core • Why honest feedback (even from AI) can make you a better leader Enjoy these 3 things plus many nuggets along the way. I have also been sharing emails on my brutally honest advice on a variety of topics. People have been loving it.

Here's Claudes feedback on this very episode as it was happening in realtime: The strongest thing in this episode is the thing you didn't plan to talk about. Marcin's note ("you don't sound inspired, you don't want to run AppSumo, you're in the best season of your life") is the whole episode, and your answer to it is genuinely good. The problem is you never say it cleanly. The cleanest version is buried in the middle: software deals isn't your calling, but business is your calling and the company is your responsibility, and the spark didn't die, it matured into follow-through. That's the episode. Right now it's a needle in 20 minutes of riffing instead of the spine the whole thing hangs on. You bury your two best business lessons. The refund/Plus-customer admission is the most useful leadership moment in the episode and you glide past it: "I made decisions on the best info I had, but I didn't check back on the outcomes and improve them, and we course-corrected too slow." That's a clean, repeatable lesson any operator can steal. Same with the over-adjustment arc (we thought SaaS was dying and vibe coding would kill us, so we over-corrected, and now we're walking it back to the core). Both are stronger than the abstract "discoverability / velocity / treat best customers better" framing, which stays high-level. Lead with the admissions, not the framework. The Claude feedback loop is your most shareable practical drop and you undersell it with the $9.99 joke. Transcript-into-Claude-for-feedback, the Eamon skill, Meeting Coach running live during meetings, the reframe that a CEO sets the scorecards instead of solving the problems in the room. That's the segment people will text you about. Give it room. What's working: the vulnerability lands, the floor-sleeping callback is great, and "it's okay to quit stuff and it's okay to continue stuff, the point is recognizing the behavior and whether it's aligned" is your most quotable line. "Calm is cool" and "building up" are good repeatable phrases. What's hurting it: it meanders and has three or four false endings ("yeah that's it," "damn that was the good stuff"). The BYOLM/BYOK bit at the end feels tacked on, half a thought you ran out of runway for. And the "I won't share company secrets" then sharing them is a touch coy. Either share or don't. One structural fix for next time: you open with the listener critique by accident. Open with it on purpose. The episode is "someone told me I lost my spark, here's my honest answer." Frame it that way in the first 60 seconds and the whole thing tightens.

Neglect does not destroy your life overnight. It slowly shows up in your marriage, your body, your business, your leadership, your family, and your spiritual life. In this episode, Tim Holloway teaches Christian men how to recognize the areas they have stopped tending and why true ownership begins with seeing what God has placed inside your domain. If you feel like your life is drifting, your relationships are strained, your body is breaking down, your business is overgrown, or your spiritual life feels distant, this message will help you identify the root issue: neglect. You will learn why blaming pressure, fatigue, other people, or circumstances keeps you immature, while ownership brings maturity, stewardship, repair, and responsibility. This teaching is for men who are ready to stop standing idly by, stop meddling in everyone else's business, and start carrying what is actually theirs. Your marriage, fatherhood, body, mission, calendar, emotions, and walk with God are not random. They are your garden. And whatever you refuse to tend will eventually reveal the cost of neglect. You'll learn how neglect begins through avoidance, how responsibilities compound when ignored, why your domain matters, and how ownership changes the way you lead your marriage, family, business, body, and spiritual life. Tim also unpacks biblical examples from Adam, Proverbs, and David to show how unattended areas become visible over time and why maturity requires courage, responsibility, and honest self-examination. 00:00 Intro: Becoming an Owner01:45 What Neglect Really Is03:49 Adam's Neglect in the Garden06:00 Where Neglect Shows Up in Life07:45 The Old House Analogy11:43 Why Untended Areas Fall Apart13:10 The Garden and Weed Lesson15:04 Neglect Compounds Over Time18:03 Proverbs 24 and the Field of the Sluggard21:29 Your Life Reveals What You Tend23:21 Avoidance Creates More Pressure23:53 The Wood Rot and Termite Analogy27:50 Neglect Does Not Stay Neutral30:48 Understanding Your Jurisdiction33:00 Your Loves, Impact, Frame, and Essence37:29 Stay Out of Other People's Business41:12 David's Neglect in 2 Samuel 1145:52 Procrastination Is Not Time Management46:53 The Pie Recipe Analogy51:58 What Neglect Feels Like53:00 The Narrow Path and Ownership58:54 Asking God Why You Avoid Responsibility01:00:06 Questions for Your Loves, Impact, Body, and Essence01:02:27 The First Step Into Ownership #ChristianMen #BiblicalManhood #Ownership #SpiritualGrowth #Leadership Learn more about your ad choices.

Most organizations aren't just shaped by strategy, org charts, or job descriptions — they're shaped by the unwritten rules everyone follows but no one talks about. In this episode, I walk through what I call “unspoken agreements” — the invisible patterns that quietly determine how decisions get made, who holds power, and what problems never actually get solved.I've seen how these agreements start as helpful shortcuts in early-stage organizations. They reduce friction and keep things moving. But over time, they harden into something much bigger — invisible structures that limit growth, distort accountability, and make it harder to adapt as your organization scales.We'll break down how these patterns form, why they're so difficult to challenge, and where they tend to show up first — especially inside leadership teams and boards. If your organization feels stuck in ways you can't quite name, this episode will help you put language to it.What You'll LearnHow unspoken agreements form — and why they're not accidentalWhy these invisible rules become a hidden ceiling on growth and accountabilityThe three key areas where these patterns quietly shape your organizationKey TakeawaysUnspoken agreements start as adaptations, but often become structural constraintsWhat feels like “kindness” or “loyalty” can quietly turn into unexamined expectationsYou can't change what you haven't named — visibility is the first step to redesignA Simple Process to Surface Unspoken AgreementsIf you want to start identifying these patterns in your organization, here's a practical way to begin:1. Look for patterns in behavior (not policy)Pay attention to what consistently happens — especially what people avoid. Where do conversations get sidestepped? What decisions always follow the same unwritten script?2. Notice who carries invisible weightWho absorbs tension, fills gaps, or takes on responsibilities that aren't formally theirs? These patterns often signal hidden agreements.3. Compare formal vs. actual accountabilityLook at your org chart and job descriptions — then compare them to reality. Who actually gets feedback? Whose commitments are enforced?4. Name the pattern out loudThis is the hardest step. Frame it as an observation, not a blame statement. You're identifying a system, not calling out a person.5. Decide what's intentional going forwardNot every informal rule is bad. The goal is to choose which ones you keep — and which ones you redesign.Want to work together?

This week on the Velo Podcast, the crew discusses a 13-pound Everesting rig, women's specific bike shoes vs unisex options, and why your next road bike might actually be a gravel setup. I'm back, but Mike Levy is still playing in the woods on a bike. We'll talk to him about that soon, but for now, Logan Jones-Wilkins, Lisa Charlebois, and I get into women's cycling shoes, 13-pound climbing bikes, and the death of the endurance road bike. Episode Breakdown: Women's Shoe Buyer's Guide: We look at the women's shoe buyer's guide that Charlebois recently published. We bypass debating the actual shoe choices and focus on why it's critical to carve out dedicated space for that guide. Charlebois shares her thoughts on the current market mix of women-specific and unisex shoes and whether a unisex approach takes away from the quality of the selection. Everesting Roam on a 13lb Bike: The discussion transitions to the shoes Charlebois chose and the 13-pound bike she used for her recent Everesting Roam adventure—a format with no sleep allowed and no hill repeats, ending only when you hit 29,000 feet of elevation. As someone who prioritizes comfort and normally rides a metal frame, what was the experience actually like on a stiff, ultra-light carbon bike? The Endurance Bike is Dead: Wouldn't she have been more comfortable on an endurance bike? It's possible, but maybe no one should be riding a dedicated endurance bike in 2026. Jones-Wilkins reports on a rider who won a stage of Tulsa Tough on a gravel bike. He argues that while some insist the gravel bike is an industry marketing scam, that label really only applies to pure road bikes. We debate if the endurance bike genre should be put to pasture.

Are you tired of trying to "fix" your relationship, only to find that the more you push, the further she pulls away? Most men are stuck in a cycle of "performing" and seeking validation, completely unaware that they are interacting with a version of their wife or girlfriend that they have created through their own internal assumptions.In this deep-dive Frame Friday episode, we explore a powerful epiphany: If you are the god of your own universe and the only one experiencing your reality, then everyone around you is "You Pushed Out." Based on the teachings of Neville Goddard and the principles of Reality Transurfing, we break down how your internal "Frame" dictates which parallel reality you inhabit and, more importantly, which version of your woman shows up to meet you.VIDEOS TO WATCH NEXT:Watch this playlist to figure out how to fix your failing marriage: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEXcvFDdRqPuu_G8-sTLS7eXT7myvidMFWatch this playlist to help you get over your ex for good: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEXcvFDdRqPsZ9JCTSAIkin-oMnavqNJZWatch this playlist to develop an unshakable frame and take control of your life: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEXcvFDdRqPvgN8idHfGfOp3gA8Y0tMxT&si=NccZ6koKYz3hSuUz--------------------------------------------FREE EBOOKS➡️ She's Made You Weak: https://ebook.fixdeadbedrooms.com➡️ Fine...

Cultural gaslighting is attempted when people in charge of something take some absurdity, throw a saddle on it, and then stand next to it, booted, spurred, and ready to ride. For example, the absurdity could be saying that the attempted beheading in Ireland was the result of us not being welcoming and inclusive enough. And believe me, they will ride that absurdity as long as the people out there put up with it. Who are you going to believe?

In this episode of the HVAC School Podcast, Bryan sits down with Kelsey Hei and Andy Fox from 3M Filtrete to pull back the curtain on what really goes into a quality air filter. Most homeowners — and even some contractors — think of air filters as simple screens that catch dust, but as this episode makes clear, modern filter technology is anything but simple. From proprietary nonwoven fiber structures to electrostatic charging that turns fibers into "magnets" for microscopic particles, the science behind a great air filter is both fascinating and critically important for equipment health and the air we breathe every day. The conversation digs deep into why MERV 13 has become the gold standard recommendation from organizations like the EPA and CDC — especially in the wake of COVID-19 and worsening wildfire seasons across the country. While higher MERV ratings deliver better particle capture, they can also mean higher pressure drop, which strains HVAC equipment. This is where Filtrete's MPR 1900 filter stands out: it achieves MERV 13 performance while maintaining a pressure drop comparable to most MERV 8 filters — roughly half that of leading competitors. That balance between filtration efficiency and airflow resistance is something 3M has spent over 35 years engineering. One of the most compelling segments focuses on real-world testing. Rather than relying solely on lab data, 3M runs extensive in-home studies — placing filters in dozens of homes during Minnesota winters, then retrieving and analyzing them to measure real-life efficiency and pressure drop. This commitment to real-world validation ensures Filtrete's claims hold up in the messy, variable conditions of actual homes, not just controlled lab environments. Bryan and the guests also discuss how overloaded or collapsed filters can cause serious equipment issues, including frozen coils and system shutdowns in extreme cases — underscoring why filter quality and regular replacement matter enormously. The episode wraps with practical advice for contractors and homeowners alike: if you're installing a new system, push for a four- or five-inch filter slot to maximize surface area, lower ongoing pressure drop, and extend filter life. For existing one-inch slots, the MPR 1900 is the top pick. The Filtrete Smart App is also highlighted as a handy tool for setting filter change reminders and monitoring local air quality — making it easier than ever for consumers to stay on top of their indoor air health. Topics Covered ·       3M Filtrete's history — 35+ years of indoor air quality innovation, owning the full manufacturing value chain from raw fiber to finished filter ·       The three pillars of air filter design — Efficiency, pressure drop, and air filter lifetime — and how they must be balanced ·       Nonwoven media explained — Why random fiber orientation captures particles more effectively than woven fabrics ·       Electrostatic charging technology — How fibers are engineered to attract and trap microscopic particles ·       Charge stability over time — Shelf life testing and real-world in-home studies to verify long-term performance ·       Why MERV 13 matters — EPA, CDC, and ASHRAE recommendations; effectiveness against bacteria, viruses, allergens, and wildfire smoke ·       Pressure drop and airflow — How high-resistance air filters strain equipment, raise energy bills, and can cause system failures ·       MPR 1900 spotlight — MERV 13 filtration at MERV 8 pressure drop, with publicly available data through the California Energy Commission ·       California Energy Commission database — Publicly available pressure drop and efficiency data on every filter sold in the U.S. ·       Pleats and surface area — Why having more pleats equals better dust-holding capacity and a longer filter life ·       Frame strength and bypass prevention — How structural integrity affects real-world performance over the filter's lifespan ·       MPR rating system explained — Microparticle Performance Rating: Filtrete's system focused on capturing the smallest, hardest-to-catch particles ·       Exceeding ASHRAE minimums — Filtrete's MERV 11, 12, and 13 filters all capture significantly more fine particles than the minimum standard requires ·       One-inch vs. four/five-inch filters — Why thicker filters are ideal for new installs and how to maximize one-inch slot performance ·       Energy consumption impact — How pressure drop affects fan wattage, system efficiency, and real annual utility costs ·       The Filtrete Smart App — Set filter change reminders at 30/60/90 days, store filter sizes, and get local air quality alerts   Learn more about Filtrete's air filters at filtrete.com or download the Filtrete Smart App on your Android or iOS smartphone.  Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

Shawn Mahoney of NFPA's Technical Services team joins Drew for his fourth time on The Fire Protection Podcast, and this one covers a lot of ground before landing on a problem the industry keeps stepping over: construction-site fires. You've seen the headlines. A light wood-frame building goes up mid-construction, and the whole thing is gone, like the Denver complex that took a 238-unit building with it, or the South Park fire in North Carolina that killed two workers. Shawn's point is blunt: we already have the standard to prevent this. It's NFPA 241, the Standard for Safeguarding Construction, Alteration, and Demolition Operations, and it's been around since 1930. It's referenced by NFPA 1, NFPA 101, the IBC, and the IFC. "The biggest issue is people just aren't using it," Shawn says. The code isn't broken. Enforcement is. Drew and Shawn dig into why adoption is so piecemeal, what real enforcement looks like (Boston shuts a site down if the fire prevention program manager isn't there), the legislative push after the North Carolina fire, and what the Fire Prevention Program Manager actually has to do day to day. Before that, they preview the NFPA Conference & Expo in Las Vegas, including Drew's Tuesday session on AI and fire protection, how AI has reshaped the codes world through NFPA LiNK, CASI, and the new Notebooks feature, and why data centers and small nuclear reactors are creating fire-protection problems in towns that have never seen anything like them. Join Drew for Episode 96 for a real conversation about why the standards we already have only matter if someone enforces them. Topics covered: Inside the NFPA Conference & Expo in Las Vegas AI in fire protection: NFPA LiNK, CASI, and NFPA Insights LiNK Notebooks for codes, checklists, and impairment permits Data centers and small nuclear reactors as emerging fire risks Light wood-frame construction fires and why they're catastrophic NFPA 241 and the enforcement gap The Fire Prevention Program Manager role   Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction 02:27 – Inside the NFPA Conference & Expo 05:35 – AI in Fire Protection 07:46 – Data Centers & Small Nuclear Reactors 09:13 – NFPA LiNK, CASI & NFPA Insights 12:00 – LiNK Notebooks 15:21 – NFPA 241: A Standard Since 1930 16:50 – Why Wood-Frame Construction Fires Are Catastrophic 19:07 – Referenced Everywhere, Enforced Almost Nowhere 20:36 – How Boston Enforces 241 25:54 – The Fire Prevention Program Manager Role 28:33 – Educational Videos & NFPA's YouTube Channels 30:23 – Conclusion

If you are a parent who cannot unschool or homeschool your PDA child, or who needs practical support navigating the school system, this episode is for you. I am joined by Dr. Destiny Huff, a licensed professional counselor, non-attorney special education advocate, and neuro-affirming trainer who is also late-diagnosed autistic and ADHD and a mother of neurodivergent children.Dr. Huff shares the most common patterns she sees as PDA families navigate schools, how she frames the nervous system lens in IEP meetings, the specific accommodations she advocates for most consistently, her approach to functional behavioral assessments, and practical steps parents can take right now.Key TakeawaysTwo Patterns Dr. Huff Sees Advocating for PDA Families | 00:05:06 The first is families who have learned about PDA but are still defaulting to the demand avoidance frame when explaining it to schools, which makes it easy for administrators to push back by saying the child just needs to deal with demands. The second is schools latching onto the term PDA itself, either saying they do not recognize it or using it superficially, without understanding the nervous system mechanisms underneath it. Dr. Huff's approach is to move past the label entirely and focus on the root cause: what is happening in the nervous system, what does dysregulation look like for this specific learner, and what changes in the environment and approach can support access and safety.How to Frame the Conversation in an IEP Meeting | 00:13:53 Dr. Huff focuses on three areas that school staff are almost never formally trained on: sensory needs, communication access when regulated and dysregulated, and executive functioning, of which regulation is a component. She always starts with a profile letter that describes the whole learner before getting into accommodations or concerns, and she prefers working with teachers directly because they are often the most unheard people in the room and the most open to trying something new when asked what they are actually seeing.Accommodations Dr. Huff Advocates for Most Consistently | 00:29:43 The first is declarative language, documented with a concrete example of what it actually looks like in practice, because most teams have heard the term but are not using it correctly. The second is a nonverbal communication plan, for when the learner is dysregulated, that could include a designated safe space and trusted person, identified by the learner rather than assigned by the school, paired with a low-profile signal like a hand gesture or an email so the learner can access that space without drawing attention.Her Approach to Functional Behavioral Assessments | 00:40:11 Dr. Huff sees FBAs as useful primarily because they reveal the school's perception of the learner, even when the terminology reflects a behavioral lens she does not share. Once she understands what the school believes is driving the behavior, she goes into rewrite mode with her families: adjusting the language, shifting the approach toward relationship, safety and trust, and pushing back on behavior intervention plans that default to token economies and compliance strategies.What to Do When a Child Is Too Burned Out to Access School | 00:37:27 Dr. Huff has successfully advocated for truncated days and reduced schedules. Her consistent position is that a reduced schedule does not let the school off the hook for providing free and appropriate public education, but it does acknowledge where the child's nervous system is right now and creates a starting point that can be adjusted over time based on what is actually working.Relevant ResourcesYour FBA Is a Fantasy — Book by Rick and Doris Bowman on how to approach functional behavioral assessments through a trauma-informed, neuro-affirming lens rather than a behavior modification lens, recommended directly by Dr. Huff in this episode.Collaborative & Proactive Solutions — Ross Greene's framework for addressing the root causes of challenging behavior through collaboration rather than compliance, referenced by Dr. Huff as a resource for reframing FBAs.The Affirming Village Podcast — Podcast hosted by Dr. Destiny Huff and Lisa Baskin Wright on neuro-affirming approaches to education and parenting.Neuro-Affirming Special Education Handbook — Dr. Huff's book on navigating special education in the US from a neuro-affirming standpoint, including guidance on IEPs, FBAs, and supporting PDA learners.Advocacy and Consultation With Dr. Destiny Huff — Dr. Huff's direct services for families, including IEP meeting attendance, drafting parent input statements, and consultation on supporting PDA and neurodivergent learners in schools.Dr. Destiny Huff on Instagram — Follow Dr. Huff for ongoing content on neuro-affirming special education advocacy, IEP navigation, and supporting neurodivergent learners in schools.Paradigm Shift Program — My signature program for parents of PDA children and teens taught across twelve weeks of live coaching.

Is the VR industry going through a "Great Reset"? In this episode of the Gamertag & Bradley Podcast, we break down the reality of mainstream VR adoption, Valve's imminent Steam Frame and Steam Machine launch preparations, and Apple's massive Vision OS developer updates. We also dive into how AI hardware demand is creating component shortages that could drastically impact next-gen headset pricing!Main topics:

Andy Stumpf is a retired Navy SEAL, world-record-holding wingsuit BASE jumper, martial artist, and author. We discuss the mental framework and moment-to-moment decision-making process that can allow anyone to build discipline and resilience and better navigate both everyday life and life's most challenging moments. Andy explains several simple-yet-powerful tools gleaned from his time in — and after — his SEAL career that can help you determine where to focus your actions and how to clear your mind of things you can't control or that hold you back mentally. Andy also shares and reflects on lessons learned from some of the deeply personal challenges he faced outside of combat and freefall. Finally, we explore the all-too-frequent tragedy of people — including high performers — taking their own lives, and consider what might be done to prevent more such losses.

Rafe Furst is a World Series poker champion, five-time founder, and author of the number one bestselling book on venture capital. He joins host KJ to challenge the VC status quo. Rafe breaks down why the 10-year lockup model is broken, how misaligned incentives are quietly killing early-stage innovation, and why the future of venture capital runs on blockchain. He also shares the story behind The Crypto Company and their newly acquired Frame blockchain, which aims to unify liquidity across fragmented crypto ecosystems. Four Key Takeaways: 3:32 — VCs have quietly abandoned true venture capital by flooding money into later stages. Early-stage investments are treated as lottery tickets rather than genuine bets on founders and their vision. 20:22 — The number one structural flaw in venture capital is not bad founders or bad ideas. It is the total absence of liquidity for a decade or more, which creates misaligned incentives for everyone involved. 21:57 — Liquidity is the magic unlock for early-stage investing. Blockchain technology is the most powerful mechanism to finally deliver that liquidity to founders, investors, and employees alike. 37:47 — AI and blockchain are converging at an exponential pace. Founders who start building on-chain infrastructure now will be positioned to ride the wave rather than get swept away by it. Quote of the Show (38:03):"The way to not get swept away is to get in front of the wave." — Rafe Furst Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Jeder von uns tut es, meistens in Bruchteilen einer Sekunde: Wir ordnen ein, bewerten und sortieren Erlebnisse. Doch was passiert, wenn dieser psychologische Mechanismus ganz gezielt von außen getriggert wird, um Deutungshoheit zu erlangen? In dieser Folge der Abschweifung seziert Sascha das Phänomen des Framings. Warum funktioniert die gezielte Manipulation durch Auslassungen, geänderte Reihenfolgen oder emotionale Begriffe auf Social Media so erschreckend gut? Am konkreten Beispiel aktueller YouTube-Beefs und eigenen Erfahrungen mit dem Kanal Lautfunk wird gezeigt, wie aus ständigen Wiederholungen plötzlich eine gefühlte „Wahrheit“ konstruiert wird, die mit der Realität nichts mehr zu tun hat. Das Wichtigste zum Schluss: Wie wehrt man sich gegen einen untergeschobenen Rahmen, ohne die Spielregeln des Gegners zu übernehmen? Der Wechsel auf die Meta-Ebene und die Kunst des Reframings. „Der gefährlichste Frame ist nicht der, dem man widerspricht. Der gefährlichste Frame ist der, den man erst gar nicht als Frame erkennt.“

What if protecting your peace, your schedule, and your business growth meant saying no to the wrong clients? In this bold and hilarious episode of the CEO Glow Show, Sheila Bella walks through a real-life case study that every beauty entrepreneur, injector, salon owner, lash artist, and med spa owner needs to hear. A potential client hadn't spent a dollar yet—but over multiple phone calls, consultations, and text messages, she had already begun creating chaos. What looked like "reasonable requests" on the surface slowly revealed something deeper: boundary testing. Sheila breaks down exactly how to identify red flags before they become refund requests, late-night text messages, and emotional burnout. More importantly, she gives you a copy-and-paste firing script that protects your authority while keeping your professionalism intact. Because not every client is your client. And the fastest way to create space for dream clients is by learning how to release the wrong ones. Your time is the most expensive thing you sell. Stop giving it away for free.

Harry Warden is here to see you! My Bloody Valentine (1981) My Bloody Valentine turns 45 years old this year. The director, George Mihalka, was the guest of honor at this year’s Portland Horror Film Festival. He was kind enough to speak with the Scariest Things, who are huge fans of the film. Lost cutting room footage was recently found when the producer was absorbed by Lionsgate, allowing some of the missing gory effects to be brought back into the movie. So, it’s time to revisit this movie and talk to the creator about why it remains important today. In my nine years of managing the Scariest Things, I have been honored to meet some of the best people in the horror movie industry. Mick Garris, David Dastmalchian, Darren Lyn Bousman, Ben Leonberg, Aaron Moorhead, Carter Smith, and Ted Geoghegan are all people whom I would consider friends of the Scariest Things, having met and interviewed them. But, after meeting George Mihalka, director of My Bloody Valentine (1981), I can firmly say that he is my favorite person in the genre. Talking with George felt like story time. He was warm and generous, and was eager to tell us all about how he did his movie. George is an outlier, as far as horror directors go. He produced a singular, momentous horror film and then had a long directorial career outside of the genre. His experiences with Jack Valenti and the MPAA, who censored his film, were a “death by a thousand cuts” quite literally. It may have scared him off from continuing as a horror specialist, even though he had the gift. Sadly, some of the most creative kills in the movie got edited to the point of bloodlessness. He likes to say that it became “My Anemic Valentine”. And that, “There is more blood in the title than there is in the movie.” Frame-by-frame slicing and dicing. The film became the fall-guy film for the industry as a reaction to random violence following John Lennon’s assassination. Somebody would have to be made an example of, and in this case, it was Mihalka and My Bloody Valentine. The Legacy of My Bloody Valentine Despite all the censorship, it still found an audience. And we can celebrate it 45 years later. It is a testament to the story, the amazing sets, and better-than-average performances that, despite having the most exciting parts of the movie excised, the film became iconic. It is the trope foundation for so many slasher films to come. I Know What You Did Last Summer comes to mind. Scream, with its multiple killer options, also owes a debt to this film. And those are just the big ones. Simply put, My Bloody Valentine is foundational horror. For me, it ranks only behind 1978’s Halloween for slasher movies of that era. You can see the family tree: Black Christmas, The Town That Dreaded Sundown, My Bloody Valentine, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Cold Prey, Heart Eyes. Silent human killers bent on revenge, in full costume, butchering their way through lots of pretty young adults. This is the model, and it works well when executed with focus and craft. My Bloody Valentine helped build the trope platform that so many slasher films have utilized. They may be cliches now, but along with Friday the 13th, The Burning, and Halloween, MBV established these themes: Masked killer (essential) The Hidden Villain Switcheroo Splitting up the group (OK, this one is as old as horror films have been around, but slashers really take advantage of this trope.) Sneaking off to have sex in the next room is really dangerous. Never leave a romantic interlude to get booze. Let’s go exploring a really dangerous place for the fun of it. A panicking mayor. The young people don’t listen to the cops. The cops don’t tell the people what they need to know. The mad prophet. (Happy, in this movie) The body in a cooler. (A nod to Rabid?) Childhood trauma made the killer. Remember. This is an early slasher film. MBV does all of these tropes better than most. Mihalka wanted to do Deer Hunter, slasher style. He knew what he was getting into and willingly admitted that this was a movie meant to be fun and make money. It wasn’t going to be an Oscar contender. But he took the ideas of The Deer Hunter and the disaffected blue-collar workers and crafted a story that, despite its drive-in bona fides, was as much about the community as it was about the killer. The film used a real mine in a wind-swept working-class Sydney, Nova Scotia. It has a simple, plausible story. And now that the film has recovered some of its cutting-room components, restored to a 4K Blu-ray Collector’s edition, it can be appreciated for the gory creativity that fans were denied in 1981. About George Mihalka George was a Hungarian immigrant to Canada, initially unable to speak English or French. He initially found it difficult to integrate into Canadian culture, but would eventually become a highly prolific director in both English- and French-language films. He has amassed over fifty credits. This includes long runs on Canadian TV shows: Crossbow, Scoop, Undressed, and 24-Hour Rental. However, he will always be known for My Bloody Valentine. You can find several of his interviews online, talking about this movie. (But of course, you found this one first, right?) Mihalka appears to be comfortable with his legacy. He’s had plenty of time to see his film first get threatened with an X-rating, then achieve moderate box-office success, receive a sequel, and become the moniker of a hugely influential post-punk shoegaze band. George genuinely seemed to glow at how much the fans appreciated his work all these years later. He isn’t a stranger to the festival and podcast interview circuit. His easygoing demeanor, combined with his wisdom and eagerness to share stories about the craft of filmmaking, makes for story time with Uncle George. This is why I love doing what I do. When you meet your heroes and they turn out to be wonderful people, it confirms that pursuing this hobby as a small-press horror blogger rewards the grind. The Interview: This is the recording from the Portland Horror Film Festival 2026 by Eric Li and Mike Campbell with George Mihalka. We recorded this in the green room for the Hollywood Theater before the big-screen presentation, with all the restored footage in 4K. I included an audio recording of the Q&A session with George, hosted by Andrea Subissati, editor of Rue Morgue and the Bloody Judge this year at the PHFF. More content!

With Father's Day on the horizon, two dads join us to share their perspectives on love, loss, priorities and fatherhood.After David Fischette stepped away from the day-to-day grind of running his business, he began walking 10,000 steps a day as a personal health challenge. Before long, the habit evolved into a series of “walk and talk” videos exploring themes of love, loss, priorities and codependency, and eventually into Hello Fine Friends, a book that, in part, reflects on his efforts to repair his fractured relationship with his daughters.Then, fatherhood is a public health issue for Robert Taylor. He spent the last few years helping fathers change a few more diapers, and more importantly, see themselves as more than providers. He leads the New Life Center, which has produced a documentary called Fatherhood Beyond the Frame.This episode was produced by Mary Mancini and Blake Farmer.Guests: David Fischette, founder, Go West Creative; author, Hello Fine Friends Robert Taylor, founder and president, New Life Center

Type 3s are probably the most comfortable type when it comes to giving feedback: direct, efficient, and genuinely invested in bringing people along toward success. But that same drive that makes feedback feel natural can also cause it to miss the mark. In this Starting Monday episode, we're breaking down three things Type 3s should keep doing and three things worth reconsidering, so your feedback actually lands.What You'll Hear in This EpisodeType 3s are wired to go far and go fast. That energy is an asset in feedback conversations...until it isn't. When efficiency skips the human element, even the most well-intentioned feedback can feel abrupt, harsh, or like a performance management move rather than genuine investment. This episode walks through small but meaningful tweaks that can make your feedback land the way you actually intend it to.3 Things to DO as a Type 3 When Giving FeedbackLead with genuine belief in their potential. You already see what people are capable of. Make sure they know that before you get into the issue. That context changes everything about how the feedback is received.Be direct and specific about what needs to change and what success looks like. This comes naturally to you, so keep leaning into it. Bonus: ask what success looks like for them too. When you can align your definition of success with theirs, the feedback becomes something you're both working toward together.Keep it future-focused. Type 3s naturally have a "jump and the net will appear" mentality, bring that same energy to feedback. Frame the conversation around where you're headed, not just what went wrong. That forward-facing message is more motivating for the other person and honestly more natural for you.3 Things to AVOID as a Type 3 When Giving FeedbackRushing through the emotional part to get to the action items. Even a simple "I know this might be hard to hear..." creates space for the other person to feel like you get them, not just manage them. Emotions that come up aren't a detour. They're often important information.Assuming everyone else loves direct feedback as much as you do. Some types, think 2s, 9s, maybe 7s, need a little more relational cushioning before they can actually hear what you're saying. A small amount of rapport-building upfront makes the feedback that much more effective. It's not a waste of time. It's what makes the directness work.Delivering feedback in passing. The hallway-between-meetings efficiency instinct is real for Type 3s, but what feels like getting it done can feel like an ambush to the other person. Give feedback its own space, even if it's brief, so it can actually move the needle.A Phrase to Try"I'm telling you this because I think you have what it takes, and I don't want anything to get in the way of that."Put it at the beginning, the end, or both. It signals exactly why you're having this conversation, and for a Type 3, that's genuinely true.Resources + Next Steps1) Have something to add? If you're a Type 3 and want to push back, validate, or add something to the list (or if you work with a Type 3!) and want to share what you appreciate about how they give feedback, we'd love to hear from you at enneagrammba.com/contact.2) If you want to keep building your leadership communication by type, grab the Enneagram Manager's Prompt Pack, a practical, downloadable guide organized by real workplace situations so you always know what to say and how to say it.

Welcome back to Truth, Lies & Work, the award-winning workplace podcast where behavioural science meets workplace culture . This week, we are tackling a massive, silent trend affecting thousands of professionals: The Great Reentry . During the pandemic, thousands of people left their corporate jobs to seek purpose and flexibility in self-employment . But now, six years on, a quiet crisis is happening . Thousands of founders are realizing that business ownership is lonely, financially straining, and exhausting—and they are trying to return to the traditional workforce . The problem? They are drowning in shame, hiding their businesses, and navigating the job market completely wrong . To help us simplify the science of this messy transition, we are joined by Laurie MacPherson, a brilliant career and LinkedIn mentor who specializes in helping mid-to-senior-level women find their next roles . Laurie delivers a masterclass on how to overcome the internal struggle of "going back," why the modern job market punishes founders who apply blindly, and how to de-risk yourself to recruiters .

Frame rates are one of those video settings that can seem more complicated than they need to be, partly because different creative worlds use them differently. Movies are still usually associated with 24fps, which comes from the history of film and the minimum frame rate needed to create convincing motion without wasting film stock. Over time, that look also became tied to narrative filmmaking, because we are used to seeing scripted stories presented that way. For online video, 30fps often makes practical sense, especially when the goal is to clearly show real products, screens, interfaces, or everyday motion. It can feel a little more direct and realistic than 24fps without going all the way into the very smooth look of 60fps. For YouTube, social platforms, tutorials, tech videos, and other reality-based content, 30fps can be a very sensible choice. 60fps has real uses too, but it is not automatically better. It can be useful for sports, gaming, home videos, fast-moving kids, travel moments, or anything that might need to be slowed down later. The tradeoff is that it usually creates larger files, needs more light, and has less motion blur, which changes the feeling of the footage. In lower light, that can mean more noise or heavier noise reduction, especially on phones. Higher frame rates are mainly useful for slow motion, but they also come with technical considerations. In regions with 50Hz lighting, 100fps may be a better choice than 120fps to avoid flicker. PAL, NTSC, and odd frame rates like 23.98 and 29.97 can still matter in certain workflows, especially when mixing cameras, timelines, and audio. There is no single correct frame rate for everything. Each one has a purpose, and it helps to understand what you are gaining and giving up when you choose it.

Episode 195 - This Is Blocking You From Doing the Impossible You're working hard. Putting in the hours. And still not moving at the rate you know you should be. The problem isn't effort. It's the invisible frame you can't see. You already know you're capable of more. That's not the question. The question is why it's not showing up yet. In this episode, Jason breaks down the invisible structure running underneath every result you're getting — and why working harder inside a misaligned frame is the slowest path to the life you actually want. You'll hear the exact belief that almost killed Jason's career at the peak of his coaching work, how a divorce ripped him apart and built him into someone he's never been before, and why alignment before action isn't a philosophy — it's the formula. In this episode: 05:09 — The invisible frame and why you can't see it 08:43 — The real limiting factor in your growth 11:49 — What doing the impossible actually means 16:43 — The belief that almost ended Jason's career 23:31 — How scarcity almost took him out 32:55 — Why a different frame beats more action every time Three lines from this episode: "Frame generates mindset. Mindset generates action. Action generates results." "I sat with all the pain. How long? Until it went away. And when it went away, I went looking for it." "Your old belief — what was a strong mindset at one point — will be the limiting factor of your future."

Knowing you should redirect a client conversation is one thing. Doing it smoothly, without the client feeling like you're steering them somewhere for your own benefit... That's a different skill entirely. Over the past few weeks we've covered building a small bench of offers, reading the signals in a prospect conversation, and matching what you hear to what you have. Today I want to tackle the part that makes most writers nervous: the actual moment of the pivot. I walk through both versions — the clunky default move most writers make when they're worried about losing the work, and the three-step sequence that actually lands well. I also share a specific scenario so you can hear exactly how the language sounds in practice. What You'll Learn Why the instinctive "upsell" move lands wrong even when your instinct is right The three-step pivot sequence: mirror, name, offer How to reflect a prospect's situation back to them in a way that opens them up to a different approach What to say when you notice a strategic gap, without making the client feel corrected How to propose a smaller next step that feels like good service rather than a sales maneuver What to do when a client isn't open to being redirected at all Why the pivot is a diagnostic move, not a sales technique Key Ideas & Takeaways 1. The Default Move Lands Wrong. When most writers spot a problem with a project scope, they wait for a pause and then introduce a different offer. Even when the instinct is right, it feels like an upsell. The client came in asking for one thing and now you're selling them something else. The delivery undermines the advice. 2. Mirror First. Before naming any concern, reflect back what the prospect said in their own language — not a summary, actual words and phrases they used. This confirms you were listening and gives them a chance to hear their own situation out loud. Then pause and let them confirm or correct. 3. Name What You're Observing. Gently, without drama. Share what you've seen happen in similar situations, framed as experience rather than judgment. "I've seen that create problems down the road" lands very differently than "I think your approach is wrong." You're not telling them they're wrong. You're sharing what you've noticed. 4. Offer a Smaller Next Step. After mirroring and naming, propose a contained, lower-risk next step rather than a full alternative engagement. Frame it around the client's benefit: it makes the eventual production faster, cleaner, and more likely to work. No pressure. No lecture. The sequence is mirror, name, offer. 5. The Pivot Is a Diagnostic Move. Writers who struggle most with redirecting a conversation tend to think of it as a sales technique. It's not. It's matching what the client actually needs to the help you can actually provide. Done right, it feels like good service, because it is. 6. Sometimes It Doesn't Work. Some clients are locked in on what they asked for and won't be redirected, however gracefully you handle it. When that happens, you have a decision: take the project as scoped, or pass. But most clients respond well to honest guidance from someone who shows up as an advisor, not just an executor. Action Steps Write out the three-move sequence in your own words: mirror, name, offer. Having your own version ready makes it easier to use in the moment without it sounding scripted. Think back to a recent prospect conversation where you spotted a problem with the scope but didn't say anything. How would the mirror-name-offer sequence have changed that conversation? Practice the "name what you're observing" move in low-stakes settings first. Focus on framing it as experience ("I've seen this create problems") rather than judgment ("I think this is wrong"). Before your next discovery call, identify one scenario where you might need to redirect, and prep the language ahead of time.

Watch SLEEPING DOG movie here : https://geni.us/SleepingDog In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George go on the road to Oregon's fabled UFO Fest in McMinnville and introduce a mystery guest to a live audience. For the first time, UFO whistleblower Dylan Borland speaks in detail about his life. Dylan has been through hell since stepping forward to tell what he knows about legacy UFO programs, including his riveting, sworn testimony before Congress in September 2025. What's it been like for him and other whistleblowers who have revealed what they know? In a nutshell, it's been miserable. As Borland revealed, he and his wife have struggled financially, had their phones tapped and computers hacked, been under surveillance, and remain under constant threat of possible prosecution… for treason, which carries a possible death sentence. Borland's already-tenuous situation became worse after he agreed to give testimony to a new team created inside the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, ODNI. That office quietly launched its own UAP investigation last year and sought out whistleblowers, but the investigation was not only skewed from the beginning, it was also under an investigation of its own, as another intelligence agency targeted the witnesses who stepped forward.
