In this fascinating episode of Angus Underground, David Brown and Jim McWilliam welcome internationally respected cattle evaluator, consultant, and global livestock ambassador PJ Budler. Originally from South Africa and now based in Texas, PJ shares stories from a career that has taken him to more than 120 countries and judging assignments in over 50 nations. From evaluating cattle on icy parking lots in Kazakhstan to consulting operations across multiple continents, PJ offers a unique perspective on what makes cattle profitable, functional, and adaptable regardless of geography.  The conversation quickly moves beyond travel stories and into a thoughtful discussion on cattle breeding philosophy. PJ argues that profitability begins with the cow on the ranch—not at the feedlot, packing plant, or retail counter. He challenges the industry's obsession with chasing maximum growth and extreme EPDs, advocating instead for balance, fertility, functional efficiency, environmental adaptability, and cattle that work within their production environment. Throughout the discussion, David, Jim, and PJ explore the differences between breeding for optimization versus maximization and why consistent, honest breeding programs ultimately build the strongest customer base.  The episode concludes with an in-depth conversation about visual appraisal, functional efficiency, tropical adaptation, the influence of the late Jan Bonsma, and the dangers of overcomplicating cattle breeding. PJ emphasizes that successful breeders combine observation, curiosity, and repetition to understand cattle, while warning against treating genomics or any single tool as the only answer. His message is clear: great cattle breeding is still rooted in common sense, balance, and a relentless focus on profitability and function.  Key Discussion Points PJ Budler's journey from a South African farm to becoming a globally recognized cattle judge and consultant Judging cattle in more than 50 countries and visiting over 120 countries worldwide The creation of the "Champion of the World" livestock competition Why profitable cow-calf operations start with efficient cows rather than terminal traits Functional efficiency versus chasing extreme genetic measurements The importance of fertility, body condition, and hormonal balance in cattle selection How environmental adaptability should influence breeding decisions Angus cattle and the challenges of heat, humidity, and parasite pressure The role of Bos indicus influence in tropical environments Why consistency and honesty are powerful marketing tools for seedstock producers Lessons from Jan Bonsma and observation-based cattle breeding The dangers of treating genomics as the "only game in town" Sponsor & Ad Mentions Creek Insurance -for more information or quotes visit InsureMyBull.com

In this episode, Amy sits down with Deborah Santana—author, philanthropist, and lifelong spiritual practitioner—for a conversation that explores what it means to live from inner sovereignty.While many may recognize her through her 34-year marriage to Carlos Santana, this conversation clarifies something more essential: Deborah Santana has lived a deeply self-directed life shaped by spiritual inquiry, service, and the willingness to begin again.Her memoir, Loving the Fire, becomes the thread through which we explore transformation—not as an abstract idea, but as a lived experience of loss, identity shift, and conscious rebuilding.Key Themes Explored1. Early Life and the Roots of Inner StrengthDeborah reflects on her upbringing in San Francisco, shaped by a family that quietly modeled independence and devotion.Her father, Saunders King, was a respected musician who chose presence over fame—offering an early model of values rooted in family rather than recognition.Her childhood was also grounded in spiritual diversity, moving between Pentecostal, Lutheran, and contemplative spaces. This early exposure created a foundation of spiritual curiosity that would later evolve into a lifelong meditation practice.2. Identity, Culture, and AwarenessDeborah shares her experience growing up in a multicultural environment, where belonging felt natural—until moments of racism revealed deeper social realities.These experiences did not define her, but they did shape her awareness. Over time, they became part of the “fire” she would learn to walk through rather than avoid.3. The Fire: Loss, Transition, and ReinventionA central moment in Deborah's life—and in this conversation—is her decision to leave a long-term marriage and step into the unknown.She describes this period with clarity:A sudden shift from a full, externally defined life into silenceThe loss of roles, identity, and structureThe necessity of sitting with herself, without distractionRather than rushing to rebuild, she allowed a period of stillness:Studying the work of Wayne Dyer and Thich Nhat HanhEngaging in self-inquiry through Al-Anon principlesReturning to yoga and meditation as stabilizing practicesThis was not framed as breakdown, but as disassembly for the purpose of reorganization.4. Loving the Fire: A Different Relationship to ChallengeThe central teaching of Deborah's memoir is simple, but not easy:Life is not happening to us—it is happening for us.She describes fire not as destruction, but as a condition for renewal. Like a forest that regenerates after burning, human life can reorganize into something more aligned—if we stay present through the process.This reflects a core principle in yoga therapy:We do not eliminate discomfortWe change our relationship to itWe allow it to inform growth5. Spiritual Practice as a Stabilizing ForceDeborah has maintained a meditation practice since her early twenties. During times of transition, this inner relationship became her anchor.She describes moments of:Deep peace in solitudeHeightened perception in natureA sense of connection beyond identityThese are not framed as extraordinary experiences, but as natural outcomes when external roles fall away and attention returns inward.6. Rebuilding with IntentionFollowing this period of reflection, Deborah began to rebuild her life in alignment with her values:Founded the nonprofit Do A Little, inspired by Desmond TutuProduced documentary films to support global humanitarian effortsWorked with organizations connected to Nelson MandelaBecame a founding donor of the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and CultureHer work consistently centers on women, girls, and collective well-being.7. Education and Lifelong LearningIn her 50s, Deborah pursued a master's degree in Women's Spirituality at the California Institute of Integral Studies.This experience reflected a pattern throughout her life:Learning as a form of self-developmentIntegrating intellect with lived experienceValuing wisdom traditions alongside modern inquiry8. Global Perspective and HumilityTravel—particularly to Africa—played a significant role in reshaping her worldview.She describes:A felt sense of humanity's originsA reorientation away from individual-centered thinkingA deep respect for cultural wisdom beyond the U.S. lensThis aligns with a therapeutic perspective: healing often expands when we move beyond our habitual frame of reference.9. Current Work: Courage and EmpathyDeborah is currently involved in developing the Courage Museum in San Francisco, a project focused on:Understanding violence as a learned behaviorTeaching empathy as a skillCreating immersive experiences like “Empathy Mirrors,” where individuals witness and feel others' lived experiencesThe intention is clear: violence can be unlearned, and empathy can be cultivated.Clinical and Philosophical ReflectionsThis conversation offers several points of integration for yoga therapists and healthcare providers:Transformation often begins with disruption of identityStillness and reflection are not passive—they are reorganizing forcesSpiritual practice provides continuity when external roles dissolveGrowth requires both self-inquiry and self-responsibilityMeaning emerges not by avoiding difficulty, but by engaging it with awarenessClosing ReflectionDeborah Santana's life illustrates a steady principle:We are not defined by our roles, relationships, or accomplishments. When those fall away, what remains is the foundation we build from.Her story is not about reinvention as performance. It is about returning to something more essential—and choosing, from that place, how to live.Learn MoreLoving the Fire by Deborah SantanaAvailable via her website and major booksellersUpcoming events and book tour information available online

For years, Sam managed his life around the expectations of others, using people-pleasing to get by and smoking weed to cope with the constant anxiety of never feeling "good enough." At 18, a career selling door-to-door and scaling to a franchise owner gave him his first glimpse of his true potential. But it took hitting absolute rock bottom—a stint in jail—to finally snap him out of going through the motions and force him to bridge the gap between who he said he was and how he actually lived.Sam shares how he completely broke the cycle of people-pleasing, the need for external validation, and the cultural scripts we all inherit.Tune in as we dive deep into:Fear as a Compass: Learning how to let fear guide your life choices rather than paralyze you.The Interpersonal Blueprint: Actual, actionable exercises you can use to navigate and strengthen your relationships.Global Perspective, Internal Truth: How traveling the world helped Sam untangle who he truly is from the noise of culture and opinions.Pain as a Catalyst: Transforming deep struggle and pain into the ultimate motivator for lasting change.The Power of "Why": How asking the hard questions unlocks the deepest, most fulfilling version of your life.If you are ready to stop managing yourself for other people's approval and start mapping out what you actually want, this raw, practical, and inspiring conversation is your ultimate wake-up call.*Additionally, we want to remind you that this podcast is presented solely for educational and entertainment purposes.

Hosted by Michael Tetreault | Editor-in-Chief, Concierge Medicine Today Episode Overview In one of the most comprehensive episodes in DocPreneur Leadership Podcast history, host Michael Tetreault takes an honest, evidence-based, and encouraging look at the cash-pay and subscription-based primary care landscape — who it serves, how it works, where it's heading, and what every physician and advanced practice clinician needs to understand before making a career-defining decision. This episode doesn't take sides. It takes a clear-eyed look at the full picture — including the parts that don't always make it into the conference keynote. What's Covered in This Episode The Foundation Not all subscription-based primary care models are the same. Two models operating in this space share surface-level similarities but are structurally distinct businesses with different economic logic, different patient populations, and different long-term trajectories. Understanding which one you're considering — and why — changes everything about how you plan. A Lesson From Healthcare History Before committing to any practice model, it helps to understand what happened to the movements that came before it. This episode traces three instructive parallels: the micropractice and ideal medical practice movement of the early 2000s; the decades-long fight for healthcare price transparency and what happened when physicians finally got it; and the rise and reality check of retail health — what scaled, what didn't, and why. The common thread in every model that has achieved durable scale in American healthcare is the same: structural fit with the economic environment, not ideological purity. Two Pathways, One Brand Name The episode walks through both economic models in the cash-pay primary care space — the purist, cash-only, no-insurance model and the employer-integrated model — explaining how each works, who each serves, and what the financial picture actually looks like for physicians considering either path. The revenue math is done out loud. The sustainability data from peer-reviewed research is cited. The patient demographic fit for each model is examined honestly and specifically. Who Each Model Serves — and Where Other Models Fit Better A detailed breakdown of the patient populations each model genuinely serves well — and an honest, evidence-based look at the patient populations where other models may be a better structural fit. Including Medicare-eligible patients, patients with complex chronic disease, lower-income households, and employees of small and mid-sized businesses. The Overlooked Opportunity — NPs, PAs, and Advanced Practice Clinicians One of the most significant and underexplored opportunities in subscription-based healthcare delivery today is the direct-care model as a pathway for nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other advanced practice clinicians. The evidence on NP and PA-led primary care outcomes is strong and peer-reviewed. The physician shortage projections make the need urgent. And the organizational infrastructure for advanced practice clinician-led direct-care practices is largely unbuilt — which means the opportunity belongs to whoever moves first. The Organizational Landscape An honest look at what the multiplicity of organizations, coalitions, and alliances in the cash-pay primary care space tells us — and what research on professional association dynamics says about the long-term implications of organizational fragmentation for legislative effectiveness and individual practice planning. One Brand, Two Directions Drawing on four documented historical parallels from the history of American medicine — the AMA and managed care, osteopathic medicine's identity divide, family medicine's emergence as a separate specialty, and the micropractice movement — the episode makes the case that two communities with genuinely different economic interests and regulatory priorities currently sharing a brand name may, consistent with historical precedent, find their own distinct professional homes over time. This is presented as pattern recognition grounded in verified historical evidence — and as practical planning context for physicians building practices today. The Tax and Structuring Update A clear, practical summary of the 2025 "One Big Beautiful Bill" Act changes — effective January 2026 — and what they mean for HSA eligibility of cash-pay membership fees. What qualifies, what doesn't, and why legal counsel is essential before making any representations to patients about tax-advantaged payment options. Eight Questions Before You Commit A practical pre-decision checklist — eight specific questions every physician or advanced practice clinician should be able to answer clearly before committing to any cash-pay practice pathway. Key Takeaways Cash-pay primary care and concierge medicine are not the same model, do not serve the same patient populations, and should not be evaluated as interchangeable alternatives. The purist cash-pay model has grown from approximately 100 practices in 2009 to over 2,100 by 2023 — real and meaningful growth. The financial sustainability data, however, reflects consistent challenges that peer-reviewed research has documented specifically in lower-income markets and solo practice settings. The employer-integrated pathway has stronger structural sustainability — multiple revenue streams, embedded benefit relationships, and documented employer cost reductions of 12 to 20 percent over three to five years. A December 2025 Johns Hopkins study found concierge and cash-pay primary care practices combined grew 83.1 percent between 2018 and 2023. The employer-integrated model is the primary driver of that growth trajectory. Concierge medicine — particularly the PCM model — is not retreating. The global concierge medicine market is projected to surpass $34 billion by 2032 and is growing at a compound annual rate that outpaces most healthcare market segments. The National Academy of Medicine's 2021 Future of Nursing report, AAMC physician shortage projections, and peer-reviewed NP/PA outcomes research collectively point to advanced practice clinician-led direct-care models as one of the most significant underexplored opportunities in subscription-based healthcare delivery. Pattern recognition from healthcare history — price transparency, retail health, the micropractice movement — consistently shows that the distance between a compelling healthcare idea and durable scaled impact is longer and more complicated than early advocacy suggests. Models that have achieved durable scale in American primary care share one characteristic: structural fit with the economic environment, not independence from it.

STREAM OF THE MAKING OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, FEATURING JEFF BLISS AND MICHAEL VLAHOS, 4-24-20261748 SOUTH HOLLANDThe provided source explores a wide-ranging discussion between John Batchelor and Jeff Bliss, covering topics from planetary geology to the political and economic instability of the American West.Surfing the Solar SystemThe conversation begins with an astronomical discovery regarding waves on other planets. Researchers from Cornell and MIT modeled wave behavior on various celestial bodies, determining that Titan, a moon of Saturn, is the "winner" for the most impressive waves. On Titan, which features an ocean of liquid methane and a crust of water ice, even a light breeze can generate a 60-foot tsunami. This is compared to Earth's most massive waves in Portugal and Ireland, where surfers require jet skis for momentum to ride faces that can exceed 80 feet. This fascination with waves is culturally reinforced through references to Apocalypse Now and the iconic line, "Charlie don't surf," symbolizing how surfers view the world through the lens of the "break".Economic and Urban ChallengesThe discussion transitions to "Pacific Watch," focusing on the challenges facing Las Vegas and California. Las Vegas is attempting to transition into a sports and family capital, yet it faces immediate threats from global instability. Potential jet fuel shortages, linked to tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, threaten Harry Reid International Airport, which serves as a vital lifeline for the city's tourism and gambling economy.In California, high gasoline prices—often exceeding $5 per gallon—are attributed to the closure of refineries and burdensome environmental regulations. Because Nevada depends on California for much of its fuel, these high costs are spilling across the border. Urban centers also struggle with homelessness; Las Vegas Mayor Shelley Berkeley expressed a commitment to avoiding the "San Francisco doom loop," characterized by a point of no return for urban decay. Jeff Bliss corroborates these concerns, noting he was "menaced" by individuals struggling with substance abuse while reporting from the Las Vegas strip.Infrastructure and Political LandscapesInfrastructure projects in the West are also scrutinized for their high costs and limited scope. Los Angeles plans to spend $9 million on sidewalks, though only around Olympic venues. Meanwhile, a wildlife crossing known as the "bridge to nowhere" has seen its budget swell to over $110 million, far exceeding the costs of similar projects in other regions.In politics, the California gubernatorial race is currently a "mishmash" dominated by national rhetoric. Democratic candidates like Xavier Becerra, who is rising quickly in the polls, and billionaire Tommy Steyer have largely focused their campaigns on opposition to President Trump rather than local budgetary or homelessness issues. Steyer notably campaigned on a platform of "arresting ICE," despite his past investments in detention facilities.Global Perspective and Historical MetaphorFinally, the guest Germanicus offers a grim historical perspective, likening the current global energy and food crisis to a classic Roman siege. He predicts an impending disaster involving famine in Africa and India, and severe energy rationing in Europe as global supply chains buckle. He argues that California serves as a "bellwether" or the "Egypt" of the American empire—the wealthiest and most vital province, whose instability signals trouble for the entire nation.

Korea Risk Group Executive Director Jeongmin Kim kicks off the podcast this week by discussing North Korea's positive response after Seoul expressed regret for past civilian drone incursions, only to quickly undercut hopes for inter-Korean detente with more hardline messaging and a series of missile launches. In the second half, Dr. Cathy Kang of the Peaceful Unification Advisory Council — a group that advises South Korea's president on inter-Korean issues — joins the podcast to discuss how her experience growing up in Europe has shaped her perspective on Korean unification and coexistence, as well as the role of overseas Koreans in public diplomacy. She outlines how the advisory body gathers global input on North Korea policy and emphasizes the importance of maintaining dialogue and promoting peaceful coexistence. She argues that sustained engagement and cultural outreach are essential to preparing for future opportunities, despite declining interest in unification and North Korea's rejection of inter-Korean rapprochement. Dr. Cathy Kang is an advisory member at the Peaceful Unification Advisory Committee and an assistant professor at Plovdiv University. Her remarks in this episode do not represent the official position of the Presidential Unification Advisory Council. About the podcast: The North Korea News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by Jacco Zwetsloot exclusively for NK News, covering all things DPRK — from news to extended interviews with leading experts and analysts in the field, along with insight from our very own journalists.

What Caused Him to Be a Crime Fighter: From Gangs in England to a Global Mission. In this Special Episode of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, listeners are introduced to Simon Osamoh, a former police officer from England whose journey from the streets of the United Kingdom to becoming an American-based security consultant, author, and podcaster is nothing short of remarkable. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Growing up in England, Simon Osamoh was shaped by adversity, discipline, and a relentless drive to prove others wrong. “When someone said I was too young,” he recalls, “I just outworked them.” That mindset became the foundation of his career in law enforcement and beyond.

While many in the United States often associate gang activity with major cities like London, Simon explains that gangs in England operate far beyond the capital. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . “Organized crime isn't just a London problem,” Simon says. “There are networks across rural areas, drug operations, trafficking rings, vehicle theft, these are coordinated, often international efforts.” What Caused Him to Be a Crime Fighter: From Gangs in England to a Global Mission. Across England and Wales, specialized units work to combat these threats. Regional Organized Crime Units (ROCUs) support national agencies in tackling everything from financial crimes to violent syndicates. Rural crime networks have also expanded, targeting agricultural communities and operating with increasing sophistication. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. Misconceptions About Crime and Terrorism Now living in the United States, Simon frequently speaks about the misconceptions Americans have regarding crime in the UK. “People think it's less dangerous or less complex, but that's not the reality,” he explains. “Terrorism investigations, organized crime, financial tracking, it's all interconnected.” Legal frameworks, both in the UK and the U.S., play a crucial role in disrupting these networks. In the United States, for example, laws like Section 311 of the Patriot Act allow authorities to target international money laundering and terrorist financing. These tools, combined with intelligence-sharing, form a global effort to combat crime. What Caused Him to Be a Crime Fighter: From Gangs in England to a Global Mission.

Overcoming Adversity and Breaking Stereotypes Simon's journey was not without challenges. He openly discusses overcoming racial and class stereotypes, which he describes as barriers that can limit opportunity if left unchallenged. “Racial stereotypes are often inaccurate and harmful,” Simon notes. “They're built over time through misinformation and bias, but they don't define who you are or what you can achieve.” Instead of allowing those obstacles to define him, Simon used them as motivation. His story highlights the importance of resilience, hard work, and self-belief in overcoming systemic and personal challenges. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. What Prevents Crime? Drawing from both experience and broader research, Simon emphasizes that criminal behavior is often shaped and prevented by key factors: Fear of Legal Consequences: The risk of arrest and punishment can deter criminal activity. Strong Social Bonds: Family, community, and relationships create accountability. Stable Upbringing: Positive role models and structure help guide individuals away from crime. “These aren't just theories,” Simon says. “They're things you see play out every day in real life.” What Caused Him to Be a Crime Fighter: From Gangs in England to a Global Mission. A Global Perspective and a New Mission Today, Simon Osamoh continues his mission beyond policing. As a security consultant, author, and podcast guest, he shares insights drawn from years of experience in England, policing, and global crime prevention. You can listen to the complete interview for free on our website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major podcast platforms. His story is one of transformation, from a British law enforcement officer tackling gangs and terrorism to a voice of experience and perspective in the United States. “This journey isn't about where you start,” Simon reflects. “It's about how hard you're willing to work and what you're willing to overcome.” You can find the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, X (formerly Twitter), and LinkedIn, as well as read companion articles and updates on Medium, Blogspot, YouTube, and even IMDB.

We're back in Austin for the 2026 SXSW EDU "March Madness of Learning Trends" LIVE panel. Host Mike Palmer is joined by AJ Gutierrez (CEO of Equal Opportunity Schools), Jasmine Maze (Senior Managing Director at Teach for America's Reinvention Lab), and Justin Serrano (CEO of Littera Education) to reveal a bracket of 16 trends shaping the future of education. The conversation moves past the usual AI hype to focus on human capital and accountability. Justin Serrano introduces the "outcomes economy," describing a shift in procurement where school districts move away from buying software and toward outcomes-based contracting that holds providers accountable for student results. AJ Gutierrez highlights the continued efficacy of high-impact tutoring, noting that regular personalization within the school day remains one of the most rigorously evaluated and successful approaches to K-12 recovery. Jasmine Maze provides a necessary critique of AI as a simple productivity engine. She argues for a focus on "teacher efficiency," which means using technology to remove administrative friction and "buy back" time for the relational, human work of mentoring and master design. Mike Palmer rounds out the discussion with a call for "strategic optimism" and the importance of "unplugging" to maintain internal dialogue in an age of digital distraction. Key Takeaways: The Outcomes Economy: State departments are increasingly adopting contracts where up to 40% of payment is tied to intended student outcomes. Redefining Efficiency: Efficiency in education should mean making more time for the masterwork of human connection rather than just pressuring teachers to do more with less. Productive Distrust: As "AI slop" and mediocre content become ubiquitous, learners must develop "productive distrust," a form of critical media literacy that uses skepticism to verify sources and cross-reference information. Interoperability Standards: Initiatives like Project Unicorn and the EdSafe Alliance are essential for creating ethical, secure, and evidence-based standards for AI implementation in schools. Why Listen?This episode offers a front-row seat to the debate over the purpose of K-12 education in an automated world. The panel discusses why "play" is a critical sandbox for solving complex problems and how global perspectives—from France to Ukraine—can help educators scale best practices across different contexts.

Episode Summary: The Age of Victoria continues its 2026 “Famine & Revolution” series by stepping away from the political scandals of Lola Montez and into the microscopic world of a biological invader. In this episode, we begin our deep dive into the “Hungry Forties” by looking at the environmental and material foundations of the era. Using the “Longue Durée” framework of the Annales School, we explore the forces that dictate the fate of civilizations. We examine the “Malthusian Trap”—the point where surging urban populations outstripped the land's ability to feed them—and why the humble potato was both the savior and the Achilles’ heel of the 19th-century economy. Support the Show: This podcast is fiercely independent and relies on listener support to maintain access to academic archives and primary sources.

The “Biological Invader”: The science of Phytophthora infestans. How a fungus from the Americas managed to cross the Atlantic and “dissolve” the food supply of a continent. The Malthusian Trap: A demographic analysis of the early 19th century. We look at the “tipping point” where population growth finally collided with limited agricultural resources. Urbanisation & The Hinterland: How industrial mega-cities like London and Paris broke the traditional link between people and their food sources, creating a precarious global supply chain. The Chemistry of the Potato: Why the potato was the “perfect” industrial crop—producing more calories per acre than any grain—and why its monoculture became a death trap. The Global “Hungry Forties”: Debunking the myth that the famine was a localized event; tracing the “Pandemic of Rot” as it moved from the USA to Belgium, Prussia, Scotland, and Ireland.
