Big Fat Five: A Podcast Financially Supported by Big Fat Snare Drum
We're back with another installment of Big Fat Five - a segment of the show where I chat with my favorite drummers about the 5 records that shaped their approach to the instrument. This week's guest is Zach Danziger...a drummer/composer who refuses to let tradition box him in. From early days with Wayne Krantz to collaborations across jazz, fusion, film, and experimental projects, Zach has built a career that's as deep as it is unpredictable. Sometimes you click with everything a guest says…and this conversation was just that. Talking with Zach not only made me more confident in who I am as a player, but also excited to explore elements I've been neglecting. That being said, I hope you enjoy the 5 records that helped shape Zach Danziger into the player he is today. Cheers. - Get Your Copy of the Drummers on Drumming Book Today!
“Biodiversity is the key to making you a lazy gardener.” In this episode, Michael Dargie sits down with landscape architect, permaculture expert, and entrepreneur Matthieu Mehuys. From a childhood on a Belgian farm to a home base in the Azores, Matthieu's story is rooted in a lifelong fascination with how tiny seeds become thriving ecosystems. His journey weaves through entrepreneurial experiments with chickens and the stock market, an Amazon rainforest adventure cut short by dengue fever, and ultimately, the creation of a global business teaching people how to garden in harmony with nature . This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world. Matthieu shares how gardening is more than just growing food—it's a form of sovereignty, health, and rebellion against industrialized food systems. He explains why biodiversity makes you a “lazy gardener,” how soil microbiomes mirror the human gut, and why working with nature is always more profitable than fighting against it . The conversation turns practical too: growing radishes and potatoes as first steps, tapping into community gardens, and even indoor tower farms. Matthieu also challenges common misconceptions around GMOs, gluten, and bread, contrasting modern food production with traditional practices that honour the balance of nature . Alongside gardening wisdom, Matthieu opens up about surfing, gratitude practices, and the thrill of seeing clients transform their gardens and their lives. For anyone who's ever dreamed of pulling fresh food from their backyard—or rebelling against the system by growing a potato—this episode is a reminder that small steps can lead to profound change. Quotables “Every small change you can make in your diet is going to have a big impact.” — Matthieu Mehuys “Money is oxygen.” — Michael Dargie “Biodiversity is the key to making you a lazy gardener.” — Matthieu Mehuys “Growing something of your own feels like reconnecting with the universe.” — Michael Dargie “The only people who have ever changed the world are entrepreneurs.” — Matthieu Mehuys Links From This Episode Matthieu's Garden Training: gardenofyourdreams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/matthieumehuys/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulownia_la/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@valley.of.eden3 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/matthieu.mehuys LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthieu-mehuys-64b0b5111/ Free Training: gardenofyourdreams.com/free-training Real Estate & Landscaping Projects: paulownia-la.com BrandJitsu Book by Michael Dargie: brandjitsu.com The Biggest Little Farm (film): IMDb link Get Your Copy of Michael's Book: "BrandJitsu™: Move Your Brand From 'Meh' To Memorable" Indigo | Barnes & Noble | BrandJitsu.com

“Don't come and say ‘I'm good' if what you really mean is you're settling” Today on the RebelRebel you get to meet Mike Radoor — an Entrepreneur and coach who shares his story about building a $400 million dollar company and losing himself to excess. But this show isn't that. Its how Mike found purpose as a father and helping men live with discipline, honesty and self-respect. This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world. In This Episode In this episode, Michael Dargie connects with entrepreneur and coach Mike Radoor, who has made it his mission to help men become both good at being men and good men. From Marbella, Spain, Mike opens up about his personal journey of transformation—one that began with wealth, excess, and self-destruction, and shifted dramatically the moment his daughter was born. Mike shares candidly about the lifestyle he once lived: building and selling multi-million-dollar companies, chasing validation, and indulging in the darker sides of success. But with fatherhood came a reckoning. He realized he wouldn't want his daughter to marry a man like he was, and that stark moment of clarity forced him to change. That shift has become the foundation of his work—coaching men worldwide through masterminds, training systems, and now his forthcoming book that lays bare his mistakes and lessons learned . The conversation explores what it means to live with discipline, honour, and self-respect in today's world. Mike explains the difference between external validation and inner growth, why physical fitness is an act of self-respect, and how resisting temptation—whether it's food, anger, or comfort—is a cornerstone of character. He also speaks about the necessity of brutal honesty, taking accountability for past actions, and finding freedom in vulnerability. From Danish comfort food to the crab-bucket mentality of his homeland, from bucket-list travel dreams to the importance of calling people he wronged, Mike's raw honesty sets this episode apart. He doesn't pretend change is easy—he argues it requires pain, sacrifice, and confronting uncomfortable truths. But as he reminds listeners, that pain is the path to power. For anyone questioning their own path, or rebels in waiting ready to make a change, Mike's advice is simple: look at who you are, decide who you want to be, and kill everything that doesn't serve that vision Quotable Quotes “I became a father and knew instantly—I wouldn't want my daughter to marry a man like me.” — Mike Radoor “Don't come and say ‘I'm good' if what you really mean is you're settling.” — Mike Radoor “Bring it to light and kill it. That's how you change.” — Mike Radoor “One of the things I love to ask is: when did you zig when everyone else zagged?” — Michael Dargie “I would love to be that brave. I've never been that brave.” — Michael Dargie Episode Highlights Mission for Men | Mike explains the difference between being good at being a man and being a good man. Fatherhood Changed Everything | Becoming a dad triggered Mike's transformation. Rebel Roots | How low self-worth and the need for validation fuelled his rebellious drive.

Quotable Quotes “I'm hoping to use my life as an experiment and model what it means to take a risk.” “You stop being creative when you're an adult… that's when I went out of alignment.” “People are kinder than we think they're going to be.” “The process is the product.” “You have more access to your potential than you realize.” Episode Highlights From Teacher to Actor | Leaving the classroom to pursue music, theatre, and coaching. Creative Childhood | Band, drama club, and finding community in the arts. Out of Alignment | Losing creativity in adulthood and its impact on wellbeing. Two Pianos, Four Hands | Preparing for a nine-minute double concerto on stage. Human Conversations | Why “fine” isn't enough when someone asks how you are.

26 Jerks in the Work Place...Are You 27? Your workplace should be a place of growth, teamwork, and purpose—but what happens when one person throws it all off track? In his new book The One-Minute Jerk at Work, Rich Salon—better known as “Rich the HR Guy”—shines a bright light on the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways toxic behaviors can creep into your office and derail your career. On this episode of A New Direction with Coach Jay Izso, we'll unpack these behaviors, why they matter, and what you can do about them. Have you ever had a coworker like Wesley the Weasel who constantly takes credit for your ideas, or Micromanaging Maria who micromanages every move, or Rumor Mill Roger who thrives on stirring up drama with Rumors? Rich calls them “one-minute jerks”—people who may only need sixty seconds to poison a conversation, a meeting, or even an entire workplace culture. Together, we'll explore the practical tools from his book that help you identify these jerks early and stop their behavior from taking root. But this conversation isn't just about spotting the jerks around you—it's also about a little self-reflection. Could you be number 27...the one-minute jerk without realizing it? Rich's insights go beyond finger-pointing and invite us to hold up a mirror, recognize blind spots in our own behavior, and make changes that foster trust, respect, and productivity. Whether you're a leader trying to build a stronger team, an employee navigating difficult dynamics, or simply someone who wants to work in a healthier environment, this episode will give you the strategies to create a more positive and effective workplace. Join me, Coach Jay, for this powerful and eye-opening discussion with Rich Salon—because the jerk at work doesn't have to win. Rich Salon's book, "The One-Minute Jerk at Work" is a fun, fast, educational read that you will take with you to work immediately. You will be diagnosing your co-workers and wondering why they became a "Micromanaging Maria" or a "Pessimist Pete" and how they are disrupting the workplace. The next question is "what can I do about it?" Rich offers suggestions there too. The book also comes with self-reflecting questions that you need to ask yourself. The fact is we all lack self-awareness and Rich Salon wants to make sure that you are also taking a close look at yourself because while there are 26 mentioned in the book you may be number 27. Insightful, enjoyable and well written, The One-minute Jerk at Work will be a fun read to explore and do some critical self-analysis so you avoid being a "Jerk at Work" yourself.

Hello ShopTalkers, it's Dr. Dawn, Today's episode is going to be a little personal. I want to talk about a sneaky little emotion that can derail our success faster than we realize - I'm talking about guilt. Specifically, the kind of guilt that creeps in when things are actually going well. This may sound a little cray cray, but I know this one well—because I've been living it. Many of you know that I lost my mom not too long ago. My mom struggled with her weight for most of her life. And here's where my guilt started to creep in. Before Mom passed, I had been open about my own health journey. When I turned 40, my weight started fluctuating like crazy. After checking my hormones and finding nothing to blame, I turned to intermittent fasting—and it worked. I lost 31 pounds. Now, I'm only 5'1” on a good day, so that kind of loss was huge. I went from a size 12 Petite to a size 4 Petite, sometimes even a size 2. I felt like myself again—confident, strong, and proud. But when Mom passed, I couldn't help but feel this pang of guilt. Here I was, achieving something relatively easily that my mother struggled with for decades. I knew—in my head—that as my mom, she would want me to be healthy, to thrive, to avoid the battles she faced. But my heart didn't want to hear it. I coped by self-sabotaging and gaining back some of the weight. But because of my training, I knew that I could celebrate a big win here because I didn't gain all the weight back and then some - I instead gained about half, which I again am going to celebrate because it shows me that I have successfully broken that pattern.Now, your guilt may not be the same as mine - maybe you feel guilty for making more money than your friends or loved ones. Maybe you feel guilty for getting a promotion when your friend got laid off, or guilty for taking a vacation when your team is swamped. Whatever form it takes, the good news is you can break free from it. Today, I'm sharing 3 concrete steps to stop letting guilt block your succes plus 1 bonus goal to really seal the deal!Step 1: Set Bodacious and Fabulous Goals Step 2: Create a Concrete, Bite-Sized PlanStep 3: Find an Accountability PartnerTune in to get all the details on these 3 steps PLUS your Bonus Goal!And here's your Call to Action: I would love for you to be part of my accountability team of support. So here's my challenge to you: If guilt has been holding you back, post below what you're going to work on so we can take this journey together. I'll be cheering for you, and I hope you'll cheer for me, too. NEW HERE? DO THESE THINGS FIRST! 1. CHECK OUT our other Podcast Episodes! https://www.youtube.com/@drdawnshoptalk/podcasts 2.

Oftentimes, we think our identity is something we create, but in today's episode Fr. Gregory Pine shows us that our identity is found in Christ, present in the Eucharist. Get Your Copy of his “Your Eucharistic Identity” here: https://ignatius.com/your-eucharistic-identity-yeip/ Fr. Gregory Pine is a well-known priest, Dominican, philosopher, and YouTuber, and today we are so grateful to introduce his new book, “Your Eucharistic Identity.” Andrew Petiprin joins Fr. Pine to discuss what it means to find our identity in the Eucharist. They reflect on the mystery of the Eucharist and even its “weirdness” to the extent that a real substantial change is brought about without any visible change. Fr. Pine articulates a proper understanding of transubstantiation and clarifies how we find our uniqueness and belonging in the Body of Christ.

In this week's Words & Numbers, Ant and James tackle the misunderstood world of corporate stock buybacks—are they economic malpractice or just savvy business? The duo then pivots to publicly funded media, taking aim at the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and questioning its continued reliance on taxpayer dollars in an age of abundant private alternatives. They also examine the federal government's rare (and tiny) budget surplus in June, dissecting whether it's a meaningful trend or a statistical blip. Along the way, Steve Miller cancels his tour for baffling reasons, Trump forgets he appointed Powell, and the guys reflect on why government tax revenue stubbornly sticks to 18% of GDP—no matter the policy. As always, they ask: what's the data say, and so what?

In this episode, we explore how young coaches—especially those close in age to their athletes—can be powerful assets in any program.From connecting over shared life experiences like academics, mental health, and social media to leading by example through maturity, young coaches have the ability to care, communicate, and empower like few others can.Whether you're coaching your former teammates or stepping into a staff role for the first time, this episode reminds you that you don't have to wait years to make a difference—you just have to show up with intention.
Why don't coaches get player development? And is that… our fault?In this episode, I take a raw and honest look at one of the biggest disconnects in athletics: the gap between player development and coaching. While other departments speak clearly about their contributions—coaches talk wins, academics talk GPAs, nutrition talks health—player development is often left in the shadows.I dive into:Why the value of player development isn't obvious (and why that's a problem)The three steps we must take to clearly communicate our impactHow to translate our work into metrics, stories, and language coaches understandAnd why our silence is costing us influence and respectThis episode is adapted from my latest LinkedIn newsletter and is a must-listen for any current or aspiring player development professional ready to elevate their voice and claim their seat at the table.Get Your Copy of the BOOK - The Player Development Guide: https://amzn.to/4ju6ov3Player Development Newsletter: https://beyondthefield.substack.com/ Player Development Plan Course: https://btfplayerdevelopmentcourses.thinkific.com/courses/player-development-plan-beginnersAbout Ed Jones IIFounder | Educator | Culture Builder | Voice of the Player Development MovementEd Jones II is a nationally respected authority in player development—known not just for what he does, but for how he builds people.

Cardinal Ouellet explains what “synodality” is and what the risks and opportunities are for a synodal Church. Get Your Copy of His Book “Word, Sacrament, Charism” here: https://ignatius.com/word-sacrament-charism-wscp/?searchid=2543554&search_query=ouellet Among Catholics, there has been a lot of talk about “synodality” and a “synodal Church” over the past few years. Pope Francis even called a synod on synodality. But what is synodality, and why is it important to the Church? Is it even relevant for Catholics in the pews? Does it undermine the Church's mission or past teachings? Today, Cardinal Ouellet joins Mark Brumley to explain what synodality is, why it is important, and what are its inherent risks and opportunities. We are grateful for the opportunity to speak with his Eminence because he was involved in the most recent synod on synodality as well as the four previous synods. He also worked with Pope Benedict XVI and Pope Francis and served as the Prefect of the Dicastery of Bishops for ten years. Therefore, today's episode and his recently released book “Word, Sacrament, Charism: The Risks and Opportunities of a Synodal Church” provide valuable insight into synodality and into the mind of the Church as she chooses to promote greater synodality.

Through years of trial and error, courses, conferences, masterminds, and interviews on this very podcast, I've gathered real-world insights from some of the smartest, most successful creatives in the industry. The problem? All those golden nuggets from podcast interviews often get lost in the shuffle.

Big Fat Five: A Podcast Financially Supported by Big Fat Snare Drum
In this episode, The Drum Panel returns with ME (Ben Hilzinger), alongside my co-host Eric Urrea (Marina City), Max Flanders (Lukas Nelson), and Dean Sinclair (Capital Soirée, Worry Club, Ostin) for a roundtable on the ever-fragile topic of taste. Today we discuss: How to handle unsolicited feedback without spiraling into existential dread The delicate balance between self-expression and being hireable Whether “good taste” is something you're born with—or can develop That awkward moment when a producer tells you to “play something you're already playing” Learning to interpret non-drummer feedback without losing your mind The anxiety of showing people your work… and how to move past it Whether your teenage influences are a crutch… or your secret weapon Developing your own voice in a world full of technically perfect drummers—and incoming AI Overcoming “red light syndrome” in the studio and learning to groove under pressure This one is for anyone who's ever questioned their taste, their technique, or their place in the industry. It's funny, raw, and packed with perspective. --- Get Your Copy of the Drummers on Drumming Book Today!
