Order my newest book Make Money Easy! https://lewishowes.com/moneyyouCheck out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1776"The dying economy is the economy that you were prepared for in the schooling system... but since the two thousands, and especially since 2020 when we had the pandemic, the way that the world works no longer sits like that." - Daniel PriestleyThe traditional career path your school prepared you for is dead. Entrepreneur and business strategist Daniel Priestley reveals how the industrial age model of 15 years of education, 25 years as a worker, 10 years as a manager, and retirement has been shattered by the digital revolution. Geography no longer dictates your value, physical products have given way to intellectual property and software, and the most successful professionals now operate in fast-action loops - identifying problems, assembling small teams, testing solutions, and scaling rapidly before moving to the next opportunity.Priestley exposes the reality of the new economy where high performers juggle multiple ventures simultaneously - writing books, running agencies, developing AI products, organizing events - all with lean teams of just five people creating extraordinary value. He addresses the common trap of spreading yourself too thin across too many opportunities, becoming a "seven out of ten" at everything, and shares the strategic approach to cycling between expansion and focus phases. For professionals feeling stuck in outdated career models or overwhelmed by endless opportunities, this conversation provides a roadmap for thriving in our high-velocity, digitally-driven economy where adaptability and strategic focus determine success.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

What is Freemasonry?This episode presents an in-depth academic overview of Freemasonry, the world's oldest initiatory society independent of religious institutions. Drawing on peer-reviewed scholarship and primary source analysis, it traces Freemasonry's historical evolution from its medieval operative roots to its speculative transformation in the eighteenth century and its global spread through colonial, imperial, and transnational networks.We explore the major Masonic traditions—Regular (Anglo-American), Liberal (Continental), mixed-gender, and female orders—highlighting their theological, political, and ritual distinctions. It examines the function and symbolism of Masonic initiation, the role of embodied ritual in shaping moral and esoteric knowledge, and the use of architectural space, tracing boards, and mythic narratives in the ritual construction of identity.CONNECT & SUPPORT

The episode ends at 16:50Greetings from the paddock to the United States, Canada, Barbados, the Dominican Republic, Trinidad and Tobago, and Jamaica. Geography not being one of my strengths, I did not realize so many countries are considered in North America, but here they are; thank you all for listening to the podcast and sharing in the kingdom's concert of prayer.The wedding of Cana demonstrates the impossible God doing the impossible! At Mary's enigmatic request, Jesus asserts that His time has not yet come. In the language of Mary and Jesus, that meant, "I'll take care of it." Jesus turned at least 120 gallons of water into the finest of wines in a moment. This miracle, however, was not for the masses, but for the wedding guests. For at least five of the guests, there was a special purpose, but today we learn:Our So What?We pray in faith, and looking to God for the answers, we will see those seemingly small miracles that the Biblical characters experienced, too. Next time, we will see how our simplest prayers sometimes ripple out to have meaning far beyond all our expectations. "Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, 21 to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen." Ephesians 3:20-21Brethren, let's pray for one another. "What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."

My guest is Dr. Christopher Gardner, Ph.D., professor of medicine and director of nutrition studies at Stanford. He is known for his pioneering research on the impact of dietary interventions on weight loss and health. We compare ketogenic, vegetarian, vegan and omnivorous diets—and why there is no one-size-fits-all approach. All agree, however, that eliminating or dramatically reducing processed foods is best for health. We discuss the protein needs controversy; plant vs. animal proteins; the importance of fiber and low-sugar fermented foods for gut health and inflammation; and how diet affects gene expression. We also review food allergies—including gluten, wheat, dairy and soy—as well as raw dairy. The episode offers data-supported advice for healthier eating.

Will generative artificial intelligence lead to nirvana or dystopia? Great question, which we don't exactly answer in this week's podcast, but we do weigh the most critical downstream effects of the technology based on recent research done by urban economists Frank Levy and Scott Abrahams. We assess how GenAI impacts the benefits of a college degree, the nation's political dynamics, and which metro area economies will win (think Savannah) and lose (think San Francisco).Guests: Frank Levy, Visitor in the Strategy Group of the Fuqua School of Business, Duke University, and Scott Abrahams, Professor of Economics at Louisiana State UniversityRead Frank and Scott's recent research on Gen AI here: From San Francisco to Savannah?

0:00 - None of the NBA media's national darlings are left in the playoffs. And guess what? The 2nd round has been absolute cinema. All the theatrics from the first round came from "non stars." The league is still in good hands without the LeLakers, Luka, Giannis, Dame, Booker, Durant, Harden, etc. making headlines.15:34 - You know what's a great bit for radio? A Denver Geography lesson! Let's pull up a map on the big board and get to work! Then after that, we genuinely have no idea what to expect from the Nuggets in Game 2. At this point, no particular outcome would surprise us. 33:55 - We've had some weird food takes on this show over the years. PLENTY of odd food discussions. How about another?

In this episode of The afikra Podcast, Professor Natalie Koch – the author of "Arid Empire: The Entangled Fates of Arizona and Arabia" – helps us dive into the unexpected connections between the deserts of Arizona and the Arabian Peninsula, beginning with the story of Hi Jolly and the camel experiments of the mid-19th century. The discussion explores how these arid spaces serve as political and imperial tools, the role of white experts in influencing desert landscapes, and the intricate history of agricultural projects that link these seemingly distant regions. Chapters include the origins of Koch's interest in the subject, detailed histories of desert colonization, and the broader implications of these transnational connections.00:00 Introduction to Desert Politics01:20 The Unlikely Connection: Arizona and Saudi Arabia02:53 The Story of Hi Jolly and the Camel Experiment11:40 Geography and Its Modern Implications14:45 The Political Significance of Deserts18:38 Colonial and Imperial Narratives22:14 The Role of White Experts in the Arabian Peninsula24:17 Arizona's Colonial History27:46 The Influence of Old World Desert Knowledge30:49 Recruiting White Settlers to Arizona31:41 The Role of Railroads and Pamphlets32:56 Western Mythology and Camels in Films34:41 California's Date Industry and Arabian Influence36:43 The Short-Lived Camel Experiment37:40 Global Connections of Deserts43:42 Transnational Agricultural Projects51:23 Controversies and Misappropriations52:50 Recommended Readings and ResourcesNatalie Koch is a political geographer working on the topics of geopolitics, nationalism, energy and environmental politics, science and technology studies, and sports geography.
