Podcasts about gentlemen

Gentlemen, if you've ever questioned what women actually care about in a dating partner, this is the episode to tune in. We've surveyed and interviewed 500+ Apostolic women at all ages and stages of life, and there are some things that almost all of them say that they are looking for in a partner. Spoiler: it's probably not the things you think they care about. In this episode, Megan and Steven return from a short hiatus with a pile of qualitative research data about the things women say matter to them in their relationships, with a lot of lighthearted stories and one or two healthy arguments sprinkled in. We've missed you guys! Stay to the end to check out original music from Ben Drummond! Reproduced with permission.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 19th of February, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Book of Isaiah 43:1. The Lord says: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine.”We serve a personal God. He is not just the God or the Creator of 8 Billion people, He knows you by name, and will prove that to you if you go to John 20:16: This was Jesus now after the resurrection when Mary Magdalene went down to the tomb to find the Lord's body and of course it wasn't there, and then she thought the gardener was there. She didn't recognise the Lord. She thought it was the gardener, and she wanted to know, “What have you done with the body of my Lord?' Listen to this: “Jesus said to her, “Mary!”She turned and said to Him, “Rabboni!” (which is to say, Teacher).” She recognised Him when He called her by her name. A person's name - it is so important. I remember when I was a little boy, my dad would come out and say, “Angus”, just once, and I knew exactly who it was, and I knew it was time to come in, no arguments. What about you today? Do you know His name? Is He personal to you? Is He a friend to you, who sticks closer than a brother? Oh my dear friend, if there is one thing I am looking forward to, it is the day I go home to be with Jesus in Heaven, and I want to hear Him say, “Angus, well done, good and faithful servant, come and enter into thy fullness!” That is what I want. I just want to hear my name called by the Creator of Heaven and Earth. What a privilege!Names are so important. I have done many, many weddings. When I was younger, I had the privilege of marrying off three of my own children, and the beautiful thing is, after you have said the vows and the ring has been put on the finger then I love to just stand there saying, “Ladies and Gentlemen, I now want to introduce you to Mr and Mrs…..and then you can put, “Joseph” or whatever the man's name is, and I tell you what, I always like to look at the face of that young bride. She now has his name, and then I see his face and he now has his beautiful wife.Don't forget the importance of names. Try and remember people's names. It means so much to them.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.Goodbye.

Seb Costello is an investigative journalist, reporter & media personality. He was a reporter for Nine News & "A Current Affair" as well as Breakfast Radio on 3AW & Triple M.  Wow! Can this bloke tell a story!  Seb joined us in the hot seat to chat about some of the craziest stories he has covered in his time, hairiest moments he has faced, heartfelt stories he has been a part of and funniest incidents.  Beyond the almost unbelievable stories, Seb shares how he gets a scoop, when to (or not to) report, how to build trust with the major players of the incident and the fine line between building friendships and work-related contacts.  Seb opens up about his time on the Hot Breakfast and some of the lessons Eddie McGuire taught him...and times he copped a verbal whack from him! From the Rio Olympics featuring Luke Darcy, to inside the Cleveland Cavaliers Championship Winning Locker Room, Seb found a way in.  More locally, we hear the hairy moments of his car being attacked by a baseball bat, inside Melbourne's most notorious gangster homes, the Essendon drug saga and all that comes with reporting for A Current Affair.  We talk about Melbourne's current crime problem, why he got in some hot water on Twitter during Covid and how politics, business and sport all align together in our country.  After the show, Seb had a crack at the Golf Clearance Outlet Chipping Competition...head to YouTube to see how he went.  This episode is eye opening, has hilarious stories and some that will make you flinch.  Ladies & Gentlemen, enjoy the one and only, Seb Costello!    This episode is brought to you by Fleet Plant Hire Solutions.

Gentlemen… what if the bar isn't just a place to “blow off steam”… but a system designed to keep you from leveling up? In this episode, we break down a controversial idea: bars aren't evil, but they are efficient. Efficient at sedating ambition. Efficient at normalizing mediocrity. Efficient at keeping men distracted from building legacies in business, family, health, and leadership. We unpack: • How bar culture subtly suppresses masculine drive• Why alcohol reduces ambition while increasing tolerance for mediocrity• The economic machine behind a $1.5 trillion global alcohol industry• How bars keep men predictable, distracted, and emotionally underdeveloped• Why younger men are quietly drinking less and what that means for leadership• The rise of sober social spaces and cultural shifts happening right now This isn't a conspiracy rant. It's a performance conversation. You can't lead your company, your marriage, or your mission if your clarity is being fogged every weekend. Bars aren't just “fun.” They shape behavior. They shape habits. They shape culture. And the real rebellion in 2026?Leaving early. Staying sharp. Building something meaningful. If you care about masculinity, leadership, high performance, sobriety, and building a life that actually matters, this episode will challenge you. Looking for 1 on 1 Coaching?

In this episode, we will be exploring one of the most important Chinese herbal formulas: Liu Jun Zi Tang or Six-Gentlemen Decoction. This is a very common formula used to treat qi vacuity with dampness. We will be doing our deep dive into this formula and find out if there is any evidence for these effects. And, as usual, we will be adding something a little different…we are going to discuss evidence levels of clinical research. Each episode of the podcast will go into great depth about a single herb or formula. Besides covering the basics of herbology including category, and functions, we will explore the history, quality, science, pharmacology, evidence, and any potential interactions of each herb or formula. It is going to be another fascinating expedition into the deep sea of herbs…please join us as at Liu Jun Zi Tang or Six-Gentlemen Decoction!

We here at Baka&Company are proud to announce our lineups for the next Super Bowl halftime performance!

Oopsie! ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Well, that's what happens when you ask two enthusiastic anime fans to create the next best halftime performance lineup! The bakabois detail their ideal lineups to perform at the next halftime show, along with their favorite Japanese artists to headline the big show as well.

What if time itself could be paused—bought, sold, and exploited by anyone with enough money and nerve? Zeritsky's Law explores the terrifying social consequences when human lives become inventory and the future becomes a loophole. Zeritsky's Law by Ann Griffith. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Ann Griffith was a well-known and widely published writer, though science fiction made up only a tiny fraction of her work. During World War II, she served as a member of the Women Airforce Service Pilots, the pioneering WASP program, graduating from flight school in August 1944 at a time when few women were allowed anywhere near the cockpit of a military aircraft.After the war, Griffith built a successful writing career, contributing essays, commentary, and sharp humor to publications such as The New Yorker, The American Mercury, The Atlantic, and the aviation magazine Pegasus. Many of her magazine pieces carried deliberately wry, attention-grabbing titles, including “How to Make Housework Easy the Hard Way” and “Gentlemen, Your Tranquilizers Are Showing.”That same wit carried over into her rare ventures into science fiction. Griffith published only two known sci-fi stories, making Zeritsky's Law all the more remarkable as a darkly comic exploration of human behavior once technology removes normal limits. From Galaxy Science Fiction, November 1951, on page 51, Zeritsky's Law by Ann Griffith…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, In a future where youth is enforced and aging is treated like a moral failure, one man faces a decision that could cost him everything he values. Love, law, and longevity collide when the price of renewal becomes dangerously personal.

Scott hosts this all-Benchwarmer affair that pitted Bohmbach and Markkus against Ede and Dave. During the game there is discussion about a famous "Nut Grabber" and Markkus reveals he has issues with "that fat pig David Ortiz." We learn that Bohmbach is an NBA Draft sicko (at least for the 2023 draft thanks to a trading card addiction) and that Markkus's signature move, if he were allowed to participate in the Women's Royal Rumble, would be "The Bear Hug." Lastly, BTP introduces the new BBC segment to the pod (and that's Black-guy Baseball Corner, so don't be a perv). #portly #nutgrabber #fatpig #davidortiz #nbadraft #royalrumble #bearhug #bbc https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

Join us for the last highlight of Season 2! The New Yorkers Podcast will be back for Season 3 in two weeks! Until then, please enjoy this episode on the tantalizing tale of New York City in the 1980s from the brilliant Jonathan Mahler.  ******************************* In this episode, Kelly is joined by Jonathan Mahler! He is a staff writer for The New York Times Magazine, his sports journalism has been featured in the book “The Best American Sports Writing”, and he is the  author of two books: “Ladies and Gentlemen, The Bronx is Burning” as well as “The Challenge.” And his third book “The Gods of New York” is available now wherever you buy books! Join them, as Jonathan tells Kelly a bit about where he's from, and his profession. Kelly asks about raising kids in New York City, and what age did he think is ok for kids to ride the subway.  Kelly asks Jonathan to give him a background of New York City leading up to the 1980s. Jonathan tells him what it was like to cover the 2016 presidential campaign, and how he was inspired to write this book.  Jonathan tells Kelly about some of the stories that were going on during the second half of the 1980s, and Kelly talks about how he remembers living through a lot of these headlines.  Kelly asks Jonathan what he thinks of the current Mayoral race in New York City. Jae tells a funny story of what floridians think of the race. And Jonathan recounts how he thinks that the events of his book have a direct effect on this current political climate.  Jonathan talks about his research process for the book, what archival he used, and the people he was able to interview. Jae and Kelly talk about how much they love the writing of the book: How personable it is, how funny it is, and how the passion for New York City is dripping off every page.  Kelly asks Jonathan to tell us about the title of the book: "The Gods of New York". Jonathan talks about where the title came from, how much he loves the title, but also why he was apprehensive to call it that. Finally, Kelly asks Jonathan some questions about his writing process, as well as some fun quick New York City questions that every New Yorker has an answer for.    But above all else; Jonathan Mahler is a New Yorker!   Kelly Kopp's Social Media: @NewYorkCityKopp   Jonathan Mahler's Social Media: @Jonathan.Mahler   Jae's Social Media:@Studiojae170 Chapters (00:00:00) - New Yorkers: The Gods of New York(00:01:30) - Meet Jonathan Harris: Born and Raised in NYC(00:04:37) - Jonathan Wolff on His New Book 'The Gods of New York(00:07:10) - New York's Story of Rebirth(00:11:22) - In the Elevator With Michael Moore(00:12:06) - The New York Mayor: 1986-1990(00:14:32) - The Making of New York Mayor Ed Koch(00:16:17) - How To Write A Detailing of the AIDS Era(00:18:52) - In the Elevator With Spike Lee(00:22:16) - In the Elevator With Bernard(00:22:43) - Bernie Getz: A New York Hero ((00:27:06) - The Guardian Angels on the NYC mayoral race(00:29:49) - The Money Spent to Stop Trump(00:30:23) - How The City Went From Bad to Worse(00:32:59) - A Day in the Life of Jay(00:33:13) - What Made You Write 'This Is Worth Doing'(00:34:02) - What surprised you most during your research for The New York Story?(00:37:17) - Ed Koch's Last Year as Mayor(00:40:17) - The Gods of New York(00:41:53) - "The End of New York" by Philip Roth(00:42:57) - Readers Talk About 'The Book'(00:43:56) - 10 Quick Fire Questions for '(00:46:12) - What It Means To Be A New Yorker

What looked like a weekend headed for disaster turned into a surprisingly solid stretch of Blackhawks hockey. The guys are back to break down all the action against the Hurricanes, Lightning, and Panthers, before looking ahead at the remaining schedule leading into the Olympic break. Jarom dives into the numbers to show how this team is improving, even if they still aren't quite ready to be taken seriously as a playoff contender.

It's a magical day…..for Season 2 of Not A Bomb Presents: Breaking Brad. The premise is simple. Troy, Sammy from GGTMC, and Jose from Watch/Skip+ pick some of the worst films imaginable to see if they can break Brad.To kick off the new season, the guys dive headfirst into their very first Neil Breen experience — Fateful Findings, a movie that boldly asks, “What if one man did everything… and maybe shouldn't have?”We tried to write a quick synopsis, but that's scientifically impossible. This film doesn't have a plot so much as it has… events. Many events. All happening. All at once. In ways no human mind can fully process.Will writer/producer/director/star/caterer/sound editor/makeup artist/set decorator Neil Breen finally be the one to break Brad? Or will Brad ascend to a higher plane of Breen‑lightenment?Only one way to know — Listen and join us on this mystical, laptop‑throwing journey.Be sure to subscribe to the Gentlemen's Guide to Midnite Cinema to hear more of Sammy.

Ethan and Leland reflect on what it means to be close—not just physically, but emotionally—to a moment that altered the course of many lives. Just 20 feet away, they found themselves inside a violent, chaotic event surrounding the Charlie Kirk assassination at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. Seconds felt suspended and normalcy vanished. This conversation isn't about replaying headlines or assigning meaning too quickly; it's about memory, proximity, and the quiet aftermath that lingers long after the crowd disperses and media stories fade.

John continues his conversation with Dr. Nelva Lee. In this episode they talk about the importance of pain and purpose in life, why avoiding hard moments can keep you stuck, learning from mistakes, and much more!

Listen to this episode to learn more: [00:00] - Why pain is not something to fear [05:29] - The two most important days of your life [06:50] - How faith guides Dr. Nelva's decisions in leadership roles [11:32] - Respecting your audience while staying true to your beliefs [14:11] - Dr. Nelva's definition of success [14:57] - #1 daily habit [15:56] - Traits of a great leader [17:49] - Every person you meet can teach you something [21:00] - Value of learning from mistakes and failing fast [24:47] - Legacy Dr. Nelva wants to leave behind [25:32] - How she invests in her growth and marriage [27:26] - A message for husbands and wives [29:43] - Clear communication in marriage [30:32] - Best way to reach out to Dr. Nelva [31:04] - Supporting Dr. Nelva's candidacy [33:49] - Book recommendations [34:51] - Wrap-up NOTABLE QUOTES: "I have learned over the years that pain is not something I should be afraid of. I should be afraid when I don't experience pain." "If you do it right, you don't learn anything. So you have to fail, which means you tried something new, didn't do it right, and now you have the opportunity to learn. It's not a guarantee that you will, it just means the opportunity is there." "Embrace the fact that you will have failures. You will make mistakes. You just need to learn from them, turn them into learning opportunities, and pivot. If you're able to do that, you're going to be ahead of so many others." "First, lead yourself. Then you can lead others." "Our habits determine our behavior, and our behavior determines the level of influence that we will have." "We were all born as individuals. We were all born originals. We shouldn't die copies." "If you're not experiencing enough adversity, it's probably because you're just following a pre-decided path that may or may not be your path." "Gentlemen, date night is yours. You own it. You're in charge of it. Her job is to show up and look beautiful." "Ladies, if your husband is not the romantic type, it's okay to give him tips, and it's okay to help him plan it."

We continue our rewatch of the second series of the League of Gentlemen, with the fourth episode of the second series - Death in Royston Vasey.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! —the podcast where we resurrect cinema's most infamous box office disasters and ask the burning question: was it really that bad? We're celebrating five years of cinematic redemption.For the month of January, Not A Bomb asks a very important cinematic question: what happens when actors decide that being in front of the camera just isn't enough and take a shot at directing themselves? In the latest episode of Not A Bomb Podcast, we boldly go where many fans wish the franchise hadn't with Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. William Shatner steps fully into the captain's chair — pulling double (and triple) duty as director, co-writer, and star — and the results are… complicated. We break down Shatner's ambitions behind the camera, the notoriously troubled production, studio interference, budget issues, and how a film built around big ideas about faith and God ultimately became one of the most debated — and often maligned — entries in the Star Trek film series.Joining us for this journey beyond the galactic barrier is Sammy from The Gentlemen's Guide to Midnight Cinema, who helps us ask the forbidden question: is Star Trek V really as bad as its reputation? While the film is frequently labeled one of the worst in the franchise, we dig into its themes, character moments, and oddball sincerity to see if there's a misunderstood Trek hiding beneath the camp, chaos, and infamous missteps. Strap in, grab your favorite Tribble, and prepare for a spirited reassessment of one of Star Trek's most controversial adventures.Want to help support the show?

You are on slide 34 when the CFO's phone buzzes. She glances down. The VP to her left is nodding, but you can tell he checked out ten minutes ago. You know this pitch cold. You have rehearsed it. You built the deck. You covered every feature, every capability, every objection. And still, you are dying up there. You spent weeks on this presentation. None of it matters because everyone in that room has already sat through the same pitch from three other vendors this month. “Pitching sucks,” says Danny Fontaine, author of Pitch, on an episode of the Sales Gravy Podcast. “It sucks for the people doing it because we get so stressed out, and we spend weeks doing mountains of work. Meanwhile, there is a whole audience who has just as bad of a time as us because they have to sit through an hour of 100 PowerPoint slides and they're bored.” He is right. The audience suffers just as much. They sit through identical presentations, back to back, trying to remember which vendor said what. Both sides leave exhausted. No one wins. There is a better way. Effective sales pitch techniques don't rely on slides. They create engagement, tell stories, and turn monologues into conversations that actually move deals forward. Why Traditional Pitches Fail The standard pitch follows the same predictable pattern. Company overview. Capabilities. Case studies. Pricing. Questions at the end. Every competitor uses the same structure. That means you are asking your prospect to choose between nearly identical presentations. When everything looks the same, decision makers default to price or familiarity. Your carefully crafted message gets lost in the noise. You are treating the pitch like a presentation when it should be a conversation. You are trying to inform when you should be persuading. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0h7RqBuThf0 Experience Beats Information In 1979, a small advertising agency called Allen Brady and Marsh (ABM) competed against industry giant Saatchi & Saatchi for the British Rail account. ABM's founder, Peter Marsh, knew he couldn't win by playing it safe. When the British Rail executives arrived for the pitch, no one answered the door. They rang the buzzer three times before it finally opened, with no one behind it. The receptionist ignored them while filing her nails. The waiting area was filthy. After a while of being dismissed, the chairman stood up to leave. That is when Marsh burst through the doors and said, “Gentlemen, you have just experienced what your customers go through every single day. Shall we see what we can do to put it right?” ABM won the account. And it worked because the executives didn't just understand the problem. They felt it. Most sales pitches fail because they ask buyers to care before they are emotionally engaged. Information alone doesn't create urgency—experience does. Start With Them, Not You Pitches always start the same: ‘Thanks for your time. Here's our agenda. Let me tell you about our company.' Your prospect stops listening after the first sentence. If you want engagement, start with a question. Ask what matters to them. Ask what would make the time valuable. Ask what problem they are trying to solve. Before you show a single slide, say something like, “Before we start, what would make this conversation worth your time today?” Or, “What is the biggest challenge you are facing with this right now?” Those questions do three things immediately. They show respect. They give you intelligence. And they turn the pitch into a conversation from the first minute. This works even better over Zoom, where attention is fragile and distractions are everywhere. When you ask early questions, you pull people in instead of competing with their inbox. Stories Create Memory The most powerful stories aren't pulled from case studies. They come from real life. Every meaningful achievement involves obstacles. Those obstacles contain lessons. Those lessons connect directly to the challenges your prospects are facing. A story without relevance is just noise. A story with a clear lesson becomes a lever. A consultant once shared a story about buying a secondhand Lego set. She started building it, only to discover key pieces were missing. After hours of searching for replacements, she had to start over. When pitching a complex implementation, she said, “That taught me something. At the beginning of any project, we have to make sure all the pieces are in the bag.” That story worked because it made preparation tangible. It made risk visible. It connected emotionally and logically. If the story does not clearly support the point you are making, don't tell it. Ask Before You Lose Them Most salespeople cling to their script even when they can see the room drifting away. They are afraid of losing control, so they keep talking. That is how you lose the deal. Don't wait until the Q&A to ask questions. Sprinkle them throughout your pitch to keep your audience engaged and the conversation alive. Ask if you're hitting the mark, what they want to explore deeper, and what matters most to them. When you ask questions, you aren't giving up control. You are gaining it. The person asking the questions is always in control of the conversation. Emotion First, Logic Second Buyers like to believe they are rational. They are not. Emotion drives decisions. Logic justifies them. If you want someone to care, you have to make them feel something. Frustration. Relief. Possibility. Urgency. That is why the British Rail experience worked. Marsh didn't argue that customer service was bad. He made them experience it. The feeling came first. The logic followed. Once a buyer is emotionally engaged, they start looking for reasons to say yes. They look for data to support the decision they already want to make. This is why information-first pitches fall flat. You are asking people to care before you have given them a reason to. Create the emotional connection first. Then give them the facts. When the Room Goes Cold Even the best sales pitch techniques don't work every time. Sometimes the wrong people show up, there is a fire you didn't know about, or your message just doesn't land. When that happens, don't push harder. Pivot. Call it out. Ask what would be more valuable. Acknowledge the moment instead of pretending it is not happening. That level of honesty builds trust. It shows you are there to solve a problem, not deliver a performance. Why This Matters Your prospect didn't show up to be entertained or to be bored. When you give them an experience they didn't expect, you separate yourself from every competitor running the same tired deck. You become memorable. You become relevant. You become human. The pitch that feels risky is usually the one that wins. The personal story. The direct question. The willingness to have a real conversation. Because the alternative is being forgotten the moment you leave the room, no matter how many slides you showed. Want to take your pitch from forgettable to unforgettable? Download the FREE A.C.E.D.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the queen of them all. Pattie Boyd was the inspiration for a huge number of songs. Some of them went to the top of the charts, some of them weren’t released as singles, but nearly all of the songs about her are well-known, and not just because they’re about her; because they’re actually pretty darn good. And the crazy part is that all of them came from two men: George Harrison and Eric Clapton. There’s a song in Clapton’s catalog that could have easily been about her if you try to read into the lyrics, but it’s more coincidence than anything else, since it wasn’t written by Clapton. But it’s also quite possible that the lyrical content is one of the things that gave it its appeal to Clapton. Who knows. When I return to this topic (in two episodes), we’ll talk about the other contender for the big title. If you’re a Patron of the show, you’ve already gotten this episode in your Patreon feed.
