The Weight You're Carrying — When the Exhaustion Isn't About the WorkThere's a kind of tired that sleep doesn't touch. You take the day off, sleep well, run a clean service — and still drive home feeling heavy. This episode is for the chef who keeps waiting for that weight to lift with one more vacation, one more good hire, one more season that doesn't crush them — and is starting to suspect it never will.Register for the free monthly Culinary Leadership Lab: a live working space for chefs ready to lead without losing themselves "This didn't start as obligation. It started as love."The Tired Sleep Doesn't TouchYou know the feeling. Solid service, food went out, team was locked in, guests were happy. You did everything right and you still feel heavy. Not frantic. Not chaotic. Just weighed down, and you can't quite name it.Here's the reframe that runs through the whole episode: what if that exhaustion isn't a sign you're weak or burned out or not cut out for this? What if it's information? Because the weight you're carrying usually isn't coming from the work. It's coming from something older than that.Emotional Labor Without AuthorshipThe chefs who show up most depleted almost never identify the right source of the weight. It's the hours. It's the team that won't step up. It's a business that never stops taking. All true. But underneath it, almost every time, there's something else — emotional labor without authorship.Managing the energy in a room, holding the container, absorbing the tension, keeping people steady — that's real work, and it costs something. In a kitchen it falls on the leader invisibly, without acknowledgement and without end. What makes it unbearable isn't the labor. It's doing it without ever consciously choosing it. It just accumulates. And what started as care becomes exhaustion. What started as love becomes weight you didn't even remember picking up. The Chef in the Black ForestYears ago, on a balcony in the Black Forest in Germany, Adam watched a chef step out a side door between lunch and dinner prep. No rush. He grabbed a basket and walked into the trees for 40 minutes — foraging, unhurried, present, like the work and the rest were part of the same thing instead of opposites.That image came home to a high-volume kitchen of ticket stacking and noise, and a belief that slowing down had to be earned. Adam kept telling himself the next job would feel right. Better kitchen, better team, better ownership. The next job came, and the one after that, and the feeling didn't — because the problem was never the kitchen. It was what he carried into every kitchen. He'd confused the weight with the love.------------------Stop chasing stars and start building a career that actually works. Join the National Champions at A-B Tech in Asheville for hands-on training that respects the hustle without losing the soul. Real tools for real chefs .------------------- How We Got ConditionedWe came into this with open hearts. We fell in love with the craft, with the choreography of a kitchen firing on all cylinders. But the industry we walked into had a very specific set of ideas about what dedication looked like, and we absorbed them before we had language to question them. Dedication looked like staying the longest. Commitment looked like absorbing the most. Caring looked like never setting anything down.So we learned to conflate sacrifice with love — to treat the weight as proof of our investment. Nobody handed us a contract to hold other people's motivation as our personal responsibility. It happened through the culture, through the chefs who modeled it, through an industry that rewarded endurance over presence and called it excellence. That's not a character flaw. That's conditioning. What's Actually in the BagThe first step out is naming what's actually in there. You carry other people's moods — you read the room before you read the board. You carry other people's motivation, feeling responsible when someone won't perform. You carry unspoken expectations you never agreed to. And you carry the gap between the chef you imagined you'd be and the chef the business requires you to be. Most of us carry it all silently, as if it's just part of the deal. It doesn't have to be.The Authorship ResetWhen did you stop choosing this? Not when did it get hard — when did you move from *I choose this* to *I don't have a choice?* Because choosing nothing is still a choice, and choices can be revisited. The refrain to take from this episode: this didn't start as obligation. It started as love. Love without authorship turns into obligation. Obligation without boundaries turns into resentment. And resentment is just love that's lost its way.The reset is three steps — on paper, not in your head. One: name what you're carrying that isn't yours. Two: name what you're choosing today. Three: release one expectation you never agreed to. Pick one. Just one. The reset isn't a reinvention. It's a reclamation.-----------------------You wouldn't run a kitchen with broken equipment, so why are you redlining your own body?

On this episode of Filmjitsu, Mike decides he'd like to "extend winter" a little longer by assigning Jay the Netflix holiday rom-com Hot Frosty. A calculated attempt to exploit Jay's well-documented affection for romantic comedies, this weird take on Frosty the Snowman stars Hallmark Channel royalty Lacey Chabert and a magically animated snowman blessed with abs that could cut glass. Is it a surprisingly heartfelt holiday romance, or just another disposable entry in the ever-expanding streaming content machine? The guys dig in during the main review and then afterward, Mike and Jay count down their Bottom Five Hotties, a collection of movie characters whose scorching appeal can't compensate for their terrible behavior or general awfulness. Then it's time once again for Dueling Double Bills, where the guys attempt to build the perfect companion features for wildly different movies and, as usual, wander into unexpected territory along the way. Finally, the eternal cycle of cinematic revenge continues when the next assignment is revealed. So crank up your air conditioning, grab a mug of hot cocoa and join the podcast that wields films like deadly weapons as they contend with more icy-hotness than Mike's used on his forever-ailing back.

Send us Fan MailThe bums return to the rail yard with S6:E0154, where the prologue gets right into Chicago Bears news — headlined by non-performant President Kevin Warren and his ridiculous mishandling of the Bears stadium “project”, Rome O's injured foot is permanently a different shape, Frosty the Iceman takes a crack at breaking the Madden curse; the Rams snap up Miles and leave Cleveland empty handed (again); the NBA finals are in full swing (for the 8 fans interested); a hapless fan gets an on-court selfie w/ Wemby but pays the ultimate price; and Jalen Brunson has a dust-up with court-side fans; and oh yeah, the Stanley Cup finals are happening as Vegas draws even.The epilogue makes it's mark with a brilliant creation from Chicago's very own Old Irving Brewing — “Billy Goat Pilsner” (ABV 5.5%) — one of two beers in the Billy Goat Tavern collaboration series, a Czech-style Pilsner brewed with Pilsner malt, hopped with Saaz for an amazing tasting pils for the books; Summer time has arrived as Rocky's rat wars heat up; mega franchise Seinfeld leaves Netflix after 9 years (a show about nothing could cost everything); Eddie stumps Widows Bay, a TV series set in a cursed New England town (high marks); Rocky misses the Yellowstone franchise but is making due; and close as the Summer of Golf amps up with Rocky's slice wars campaign.  Get some while it's fresh, even though the bums are not.Recorded on June 4th, 2026 at B.O.M. northwest headquarters ‘The Eagle's Nest' in Chicago, IL USA.

Most kitchen cultures don't break in blow-ups. They erode in the things leaders chose not to name. This episode is for the chef who knows something is off in the room, has known for weeks, and keeps hoping it will fix itself."Love without boundaries becomes martyrdom. Standards without heart becomes control. Leadership is the integration of both."Register for the free monthly Culinary Leadership Lab: a live working space for chefs ready to lead without losing themselves @ https://thecheflifebrigade.com/thelab-------------------The Signal in the RoomYou've walked into a kitchen and felt it before you could name it. Service is running. Tickets are moving. Food is going out. But the energy is weird. The team is guarded. The rhythm feels broken in a way you can't put your finger on.That's not anxiety. That's not you being too sensitive. That's your leadership radar going off. And if you've been at this long enough, you know that feeling isn't random. The discomfort is information.The problem isn't that you don't feel it. The problem is what most of us do with it. We hope.We hope it fixes itself. We hope they get the message. We hope one more shift will smooth it out. But hope in that context isn't strategy. It's avoidance wearing a patient face. And what you tolerate, you teach.How We Got HereWe didn't get here because we stopped caring. We got here because we cared deeply. We fell in love with the craft, with feeding people, with precision, with the feeling of getting it exactly right.Then we ran into a business that rewarded the ones who could absorb the most, who could endure the most, who could give the most without asking for anything back. So we hardened. We armored up to survive. And slowly, quietly, the heart that made us powerful became something we learned to protect instead of lead from.Here's the fracture most chefs don't have language for yet. The craft asks for presence. The business rewards endurance. Those two things pull in opposite directions. If nobody teaches you how to hold both, you end up believing that sacrificing yourself is part of the job. It isn't. That's conditioning.Two CustomersIn every operation, there are two customers. The guest at table 12. And the internal customer — your team, the people standing next to you on the line, carrying the mission with you every shift.Both are owed something.But if you're wired as a people pleaser — if you're wired to smooth things over, to absorb the friction so nobody else has to feel it — you're probably over-indexing on one and under-serving the other. Most chefs are deeply committed to the guest experience. They'll flex the menu, jump on a station, take the hit. And in doing that, they sometimes quietly ask their team to absorb the chaos instead.That's not leadership. That's love without boundaries. And love without boundaries always lands somewhere — usually on the people closest to you.Stay Tall & Frosty.

You know that rush of childhood wonder you can almost feel in your chest and how it gets harder to reach as you grow up? We chase that feeling with author Christopher Charles Anderson, who takes a character nearly everyone recognizes and asks a deceptively big question: what keeps the magic alive year after year, and how does Frosty come back every Christmas? We talk about *Frosty and the Magic of Christmas* as both a holiday story and a craft problem. Christopher shares how his screenwriting background shapes the book's pacing, dialogue, and “see it like a movie” approach, plus why writing for younger readers is anything but easy. We also get into the fun parts of being the writer: sneaking in tiny Easter eggs, building a world that feels familiar but fresh, and trusting a publisher and illustrator with your vision even when it's hard to let go. The conversation turns personal, too. Christopher reflects on growing up through landmark moments in American history, and how years teaching students with special needs sharpened his understanding of behavior, fear, and processing time. We also explore how his story follows kids into young adulthood, grounding a classic kind of magic inside real-life change, from moving states to evolving technology and the modern urge to film everything. If you love Christmas books, children's literature, screenwriting, or smart adaptations of beloved characters, hit play.

Send us Fan MailFast food opinions get personal fast, and we lean all the way into it. We start with the big four chains and rank Wendy's, McDonald's, Burger King, and Arby's based on what actually keeps people coming back: breakfast consistency, app deals, coupons that save your wallet, and whether the food matches the hype. If you care about McDonald's breakfast, Wendy's hit-or-miss streaks, or why Burger King “isn't hitting like it used to,” you'll feel seen.Then we widen the lane into the best fast food burgers conversation. We debate premium picks like Five Guys, talk Wendy's as a reliable burger option, and get into regional fast food legends, including In N Out Burger animal style, Checkers and Rally's, Culver's butter burger, and Whataburger. We also tackle the “are sandwich chains fast food” question, from Jersey Mike's and Subway to Penn Station and the difference between a chain sub and a true local deli sandwich.Nostalgia shows up big with McDonald's play places, Happy Meals, collectible toys, and the nuggets vs burger debate, plus a side quest into pickles that gets surprisingly heated. We finish with modern convenience and how DoorDash changes the whole fast food experience, then close on the only proper finale: milkshakes from McDonald's or Arby's versus a Wendy's Frosty, with a very real reminder that the McDonald's machine may never be working when you need it.Subscribe for more Ride Home Rants, share this with the friend who always orders the same thing, and leave a review with your most controversial fast food take.All music brought to you by former guest of the show SpeedoSubscribe for exclusive content: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1530455/support Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREETactical BrotherhoodThe Tactical Brotherhood is a movement to support America.Dubby EnergyFROM GAMERS TO GYM JUNKIES TO ENTREPRENEURS, OUR PRODUCT IS FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BE BETTER.ShankitgolfOur goal here at Shankitgolf is for everyone to have a great time on and off the golf courseSweet Hands SportsElevate your game with Sweet Hands Sports!

No Peaches, Big Laughs, and One Question You Can't Forget—Did You Really Just Say That on Mother's Day? JB opens up with a painfully honest (and hilarious) Mother's Day misstep that quickly turns into a full-on conversation about love languages, garage cleanouts, and why some people see “a future with this bag of bolts.” Tricia delivers one of the most relatable lines of the morning while recounting a run-in with an electrician: “All I know is somehow we have to put lightning inside these wires.” It's everyday chaos at its funniest. The show takes a nostalgic and emotional turn with the shocking news that there will be no Fredericksburg peaches this year, sparking genuine sadness—and an unforgettable call-in from Coach Brown, who mourns the loss with a rapid-fire list of everything peach-related his household won't enjoy. “I don't care if it's peach upside-down cake or peach right-side-up cake—this is a crisis,” he jokes, sounding only half-kidding. From there, the crew dives into pop culture with what Sandy calls “the funniest thing I've seen on TV in ten years,” breaking down a Saturday night sketch that spirals into chaos in the best way possible. The episode also shines a light on Austin community goodness with a feel-good story about an inclusive café reopening its doors, reminding listeners why local stories matter. The fun keeps rolling with listener interaction—unexpected food combinations you “shouldn't knock until you try,” ranging from Frosty-dipped fries to a response that stops everyone cold: zebra meat. Yes, really. 

National Weather Service meteorologist Jon Hitchcock has the forecast.

Wisconsin green thumbs are waking up this spring! New varities, plenty of questions and a lot of ambition. Kiley Allan finds out what's happening with Scott Trudell. He works at the Plant Desk for The Bruce Company. While spring bulbs like tulips and daffodils are hardy enough to survive fluctuating temperatures, deciduous shrubs (such as lilacs and crab apples) are more vulnerable. If temperatures drop below the mid-20s, these should be covered with blankets or row covers to prevent damage. Greenhouse inventory is arriving earlier than usual this year, featuring cold-tolerant flowers like pansies, sweet alyssum, and the increasingly popular hellebores. There is a growing trend toward vegetable gardening, particularly with new disease-resistant varieties specifically bred for container growing, making gardening accessible for those in apartments or condos. Plants raised in a greenhouse are "soft" and should not be planted immediately. They require a week-long transition period, starting in the shade and gradually moving to direct sun to, adjust to the wind and temperature changes. Scott notes a rise in backyard greenhouses, ranging from permanent structures to temporary "tent" models, which allow enthusiasts to start their planting season several weeks early. Frosty start again this morning for Wisconsin. Stu Muck says the frost/freeze warnings will stick around through Saturday morning at least. Daytime highs will get back to "normal" temps with a chance of more rain next week. Despite cool, wet conditions Wisconsin potato growers have been moving. Ben Jarboe gets an industry update from Tamas Houlihan, Executive Director of WPVGA. Wisconsin potato planting is slightly delayed but not as bad as initially feared. Growers typically begin planting around April 10–15, but this year most started closer to April 20 due to wet conditions. Cold temperatures haven’t been a major issue—excess moisture in the fields has been the primary challenge. Many farms report being about five days behind schedule but expect to catch up quickly. Large operations can plant up to 150 acres per day, helping them stay on track despite delays. Farmers avoid planting in low or waterlogged areas to prevent disease and crop loss. Sandy soils in Central Wisconsin allow fields to dry quickly—often within 24 hours after rain. Northern regions like Antigo, with heavier soils, experience longer drying times and later planting windows, often starting in May. Some northern growers may plant as late as early June depending on weather conditions. Houlihan reminds consumers that Wisconsin remains a major potato producer, ranking third nationally and leading the country in potato variety diversity. By a vote of 224-200, the 2026 Farm Bill passed the U.S. House this week. 800 pages long, $390 billion deep with 12 different Titles encompassed. A Nebraska Congressman believes they'll take up the E-15 fuel conversation beginning in May outside of Farm Bill circles. In 2025 43% of restaurants said they were unprofitable. The economic challenges continue in 2026. Pam Jahnke talks with Susan Quam, executive vice president of the WI Restaurant Association. She says that restaurants are maneuvering through high beef costs, increased labor expense and climbing energy costs. Staples like Saturday night prime rib have been impacted by the beef price. What some guests may also have noticed is the high price of fish! Quam says the cost for the actual fish in a Friday fish fry have gone up 150% in the last year. That's forced restaurant owners to think about differenty types of fish for their menu. She says guest need to understand that menu prices have gone up 20% for operators and the average profit margin is 1-3%. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wisconsin farmers are dealing with a new pest familiar to gardeners. Slugs! Dane Elmquist tells Stephanie Hoff that slugs are becoming a bigger field pest because of conservation practices. Elmquist is the conservation cropping specialist with the Division of Extension. Slugs thrive in no-till and cover crop systems because the heavy crop residue and lack of soil disturbance create a cool, moist microclimate where populations can build up year over year. While they feed on both corn and soybeans, slugs pose a greater economic threat to soybeans; corn is generally more resilient and can often outgrow the damage. Crops are most at risk early in the season as seedlings, particularly when a mild winter is followed by a wet spring that slows down initial plant growth. Recent heavy infestations have been reported in Northeast Wisconsin, specifically within the Fox-Wolf watershed area near Green Bay. To combat the lack of data on slug populations in Wisconsin, researchers launched SlugNet, a monitoring project where volunteers use simple roofing shingles as "traps" to track and report slug activity across the state. Be a part of it by searching SlugNet online! Frosty start to our Thursday morning, and that trends going to continue. Stu Muck, ag weatherman, says overnight frost/freeze warnings will persist into the weekend. No go on the 2026 Farm Bill yesterday. Between worries about SNAP budget constraints and E-15 additions, it's headed back to the House Rules Committee for negotiation. Pam Jahnke shares comments from Brad Olson, President of the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation. Nonfat dry milk is at 10 year highs in pricing. Why? Collin Aardema, dairy advisor for EverAg, explains that nonfat dry milk is an ideal ingredient in a lot of foods - especially those high in protein.

Who’s back? Refresh My memory. Also Jack. Who’s Jack? Well, let Jason Dedrick, Eric Fell and Vicky Van tell you while sharing their first impressions of this 1988 “classic”. But what snacks to snack to Jack’s Back? Are they top of the pack? Or are they whack? First, the hosts will enjoy some Monterey Jack cheese on a Ritz, the most James Spader of crackers. Next is a beverage found online called Jack the Ripper. Break out the Jack Daniels and add orange juice and cinnamon to taste. They also create a tribute drink called the Smokin’ Picardo. Here’s how to make it: Take a chilled tumbler. Add two ounces of Sheridan’s Original Irish liquor – a mix of dark, rich coffee liqueur with a hint of chocolate and a smooth vanilla cream liqueur. Add two cherries on a plastic sword. Top with a shoe horn. It’s a drink the producer’s wife tasted and then described as, “Oh my God! Gah! It’s like a melted Wendy’s Frosty that’s been spiked. A very warm and nice aftertaste.” If you make a Smokin’ Picardo or, better yet, make up a drink of your own, please send a picture to sneakyd@sneakydragon.com by following this link! Even if you don’t, we’d still love to hear from you. Also let us know what you think of the show and if you have any suggestions for future films.

A Keyser resident, rollins got his start humbly, writing poetry with his mother, who was going blind. And it was with his mother's encouragement that Rollins pursued a career in songwriting, and while working with fellow songwriter Steve Nelson, he created two of the most famous songs of the holidays, "Frosty the Snowman" and "Here Comes Peter Cottontail."  Jack Rollins wrote songs covered by the greatest names of the 20th century and as America rose to prominence after World War II, he created uniquely American characters that feed our imagination.

667. Part 2 of our conversation with Kathleen Kass Byrd about her book on the history of Natchitoches. "Kathleen M. Byrd's Natchitoches, Louisiana, 1803–1840 is an examination of one French Creole community as it transitioned from a fur-trading and agricultural settlement under the control of Spain to a critical American outpost on the Spanish/American frontier and finally to a commercial hub and jumping-off point for those heading west. Byrd focuses on historic events in the area and the long-term French Creole residents as they adapted to the American presence. She also examines the effect of the arrival of the Americans, with their Indian trading house and Indian agency, on Native groups and considers how members of the enslaved population took advantage of opportunities for escape presented by a new international border. Byrd shows how the arrival of Americans forever changed Natchitoches, transforming it from a sleepy frontier settlement into a regional commercial center and staging point for pioneers heading into Texas" (LSU Pr.). Kathleen M. Byrd (nicknamed Kass) is a distinguished anthropologist, archaeologist, and historian specializing in the history and prehistory of Louisiana, particularly the Natchitoches region. A native of Connecticut, she earned her B.A. from Marquette University, an M.A. from LSU (focusing on coastal subsistence patterns), and a Ph.D. from the University of Florida. She served as Louisiana's state archaeologist for 15 years before joining Northwestern State University (NSU) in Natchitoches in 1994, where she later became director of the School of Social Sciences for 12 years until her retirement.  Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy.

This week in the Louisiana Anthology. Jim Kjelgaard. Swamp Cat.     Frosty's heritage, in great measure, came from his renegade father. Incapable of fearing anything, he was sufficient unto himself and he'd known that from the first day he'd opened his eyes and looked around the shed. There was not and never would be a situation with which he could not cope or a foe from whom he would run in panic. His self-confidence was almost as vast as his curiosity. He would stand alone, or with kindred spirits. Never would he place himself at the mercy of, or pay homage to, one who was not kindred.     He liked the woman. She was unfailingly kind and gentle.

In this episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, Brie and Nikki sit down with the endlessly charismatic Josh Segarra to talk wrestling dreams, Broadway roots, dad life, and his latest role in Fox's Best Medicine. From starring in Abbott Elementary, She-Hulk, Scream 6, and The Other Two, to lighting up the stage on Broadway in On Your Feet, Josh has truly done it all, and somehow still makes time for school pickups and rehearsal at 4:30. We love a working dad king!Of course, we had to dive into his wrestling fandom. Josh shares how he grew up idolizing the Ultimate Warrior and why he'd absolutely say yes if WWE ever called. We're already fantasy booking Sheriff Mark with handcuffs at ringside to help The Bellas snag those tag titles. Manifestation activated! And when it comes to comedy, Josh opens up about sharpening his tools on Broadway, honoring great writing, and how the best laughs often come from truth, not improv. He also gets candid about rejection, jealousy, overthinking, and dealing with online hate, dropping wisdom that honestly feels like its own form of best medicine.Between talk of Chinese food therapy, Frosty-and-fries debates, and heartfelt reflections on fatherhood, this episode is funny, grounded, and unexpectedly inspiring. Josh reminds us that comparison is the thief of joy, that overthinking is usually fiction we write in our own heads, and that sometimes the best cure is turning off the noise and going home to the people who love you. So whether you need a laugh, a pep talk, or just a reminder that you're doing better than you think, you're going to want to press play. Call Nikki & Brie at 833-GARCIA2 and leave a voicemail!

And Brian's work has earned him a reputation as a disruptive force in a world brimming with new and interesting challenges.

The results his products and services deliver continue to put him in high demand, with companies both large and small around the world. So with that introduction, Brian, I want to welcome you to the podcast.Brian 00:00:56  Thanks for having me.Josh 00:00:57  I don't remember there's a there was a beer company and you might know this, right? That what they changed in their marketing is that they said that their their beer was filtered, right. I think that's the correct thing, right? Where their beer is the exact same.Josh 00:01:14  Went through the exact same process as everybody else. Right. And that is the differentiating factor is like they just went through that thought process of like, all right, what's the most expensive step or what's the what takes the longest amount of time. And they're like, oh, we spend a lot of time filtering. Let's call out that our beer is filtered. And so at that time, nobody else was calling out that our beer was filtered, whether that was important or called out. You know, and and it differentiated them. And I think there's a lot I mean, I've already had a big mindset shift with that, like with some of my products that, one thing that we can do is like there's a lot of like, hand tooling time that takes a lot of, like, hand craftsmanship for some of our products. It's like, why don't we say that this is actually handcrafted like each one gets, you know, we can market that. And instead of just looking at the standard competition and just looking at like, oh, what does everybody say about planners? Right.Josh 00:02:16  Well, our planner has 1000 pages. Mine has 1001 pages or things like that. That's that's the basic stuff. Like what? I love those questions that you talked about. And it can make such an impact. So I'll let you continue going down that path. But I want the audience to know, like this is a huge mindset shift and I don't we haven't had any podcast guests on thus far that's ever talked about something as simple as this when it comes to product optimization, that I think genuinely is like a true miss right now in the industry.Brian 00:02:48  It is a huge opportunity because I can I can guarantee you that. But, you know, I wasn't just being cheeky when I said, like, I could walk into any niche on Amazon and immediately see the opportunities. that is that is a true statement because your competitors, they don't understand the buyer psychology. They're not taking the time to consider their bio psychology. In fact, you're probably even going up against some brands that have, you know, a thousand SKUs and they don't have the time or the resources in order to even go through that process.Brian 00:03:16  But you can, right? If you truly are passionate about the audience that you're serving, I'll probably mention it a little bit later on. As far as, review, analysis. That's a whole, whole additional topic that goes into that. But, those examples, those are just a couple of, of, you know, 20 different, 30 different ways that you can make small improvements to how well that your product, you know, catches somebody's eyes, compels them or interests them, hooks them, I call it, to pull them into your product listing just from what's in your first 75 characters of your title. and then go towards the end the listing itself, 100% is that, yes, you can you can point out benefits and I and I made I pointed out a couple of examples here as far as like how do you come up with a benefit or feature that makes my product appear to be unique? Now, you brought up a very good point. And that is, you know, my competitors don't do this currently, and that is.Brian 00:04:15  Yes, they will adapt. When they see your success, they will emulate you. And you'll need to continue to innovate. So just plan on every six months going back, looking at your ni...
