Brad Paisley is a Grammy winning artist and one of country music's most respected storytellers, known for his masterful guitar work and deeply personal songwriting. Brad sits down with Hoda Kotb to reflect on growing up in West Virginia, the grandfather who gave him his first guitar for Christmas, and why giving back has always been part of his life. Plus, he shares the inspiration behind his latest album, Snow Globe Town, and why doing something tangible is how you can create hope, especially during the holiday season.

This week on Comics and Chronic we discuss Dark Horse's Helen of Wyndhorn by Tom King & art by Bilquis Evely & colors by Matheus Lopes. “Following the tragic death of her late father C.K. Cole, the esteemed pulp writer and creator of the popular warrior character Othan, Helen Cole is called back to her Grandfather's enormous and Illustrious estate, Wyndhorn House. Scarred by Cole's untimely passing and lost in a new, strange world, Helen wreaks drunken havoc upon her arrival. However, her chaotic ways begin to soften as she discovers a lifetime of secrets hiding within the myriad rooms and hallways of the expansive manor. For outside its walls, within the woods, dwell the legendary adventures that once were locked away within her father's stories.” But first, Cody gets into his onesie to prepare for the cold.  Jake wants to see people struggle.  Are we planning to cover Batman No Man's Land for Bat-March 2026.  Little Women is a great comfort movie. Was the new Wicked a major step down? Cody confuses his Asian actresses; Jake doesn't fair much better.  Does the story being told from a character's POV who wasn't involved in the adventures take away from it? How does this compare to Supergirl: Woman of Tomrorow? Who would we cast in a live-action version of this comic? Does this book show how fairy tales come to be passed on from word of mouth?  Also RIP to Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa. Are Comics and Chronic going to start their own Black Label episodes?  Do we want to see a sequel to this book?  Is the art a perfect 6 but the story lacks?  Listen now to find out!Check out the Kickstarter pre-launch page for Superguy issue #2 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mrtonynacho/superguy-2-my-date-with-the-presidents-daughter?ref=creator_tab⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠New episodes every THURSDAYFollow us on social media!

Somehow the body has become lighter. With your new carbon fiber ears, listen to us fading white, hiding Grandfather in the back, favoring the monger, reading lady numbers, deploying a custom animation, separating charge and information, making dirt wet for too long, accepting a Motavian party member, resolving the stone mustache, separating tears from sweat, violating a sacred area, knowing our limitations, and wearing sweat pants to church. The old man doesn't have any bad intentions. 00:00:00 On the Beach 00:02:29 Intro 00:03:46 Tonoe x Grandfather 00:16:17 Warehouse Basement 00:24:52 How Old Is ______ 00:27:18 Return to Zema 00:33:56 Igglanova Rematch 00:36:55 Exploring Zema 00:46:04 Real Net 00:51:24 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com  

In this special year-end episode, Joe revisits one of the earliest Content Inc. podcasts, originally recorded in December 2014. It's a deeply personal reflection on growing up around his grandfather's funeral home in Sandusky, Ohio, and the unexpected business and storytelling lessons that came from those years. At the heart of the episode is a simple truth. Great storytelling is not about performance or persuasion. It's about service, empathy, and meaning. Through one powerful story from the Great Depression and a set of foundational content marketing principles, Joe reminds us why helping first and communicating well still matter more than ever. This is a no-video episode, shared intentionally as a reminder of how far the podcast has come and what has remained constant. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why helping others is the foundation of meaningful business How a single story can communicate values better than any strategy deck What great storytelling actually does for trust and connection Why usefulness always beats interruption in marketing The core Content Inc. beliefs that still hold true more than a decade later Key Takeaways Helping people is not separate from business. It is the business. Storytelling works best when it is grounded in empathy and service. Content is more important than the offer. Trust is built over time through consistency, usefulness, and direct communication. Brands can be copied. The way you communicate cannot. Content Inc. Principles Mentioned The content is more important than the offer Customer relationships do not end with the transaction Being the content is more important than surrounding the content Focus on what the customer wants, not just what you have to sell Build your content on owned platforms, not rented land Culture comes before strategy Customers want inspiration, not sales messages About This Episode This episode originally aired on December 16, 2014. It is being reshared to mark the anniversary of Joe's grandfather's passing and to close out the year with a reminder of why Content Inc. exists in the first place. There will be no new episode next week. Content Inc. returns with all-new episodes on the first Monday of 2026.

As we finish out the year and are in the holiday season, we felt it was fitting to release a unique story of one of our own, Chris Langlois.  Chris is a veteran member of the Dallas Police Department and serves the citizens of Dallas but also has a life mission in honoring his grandfather and those who sacrificed so much to give this country the many liberties we all enjoy today. In 2001 HBO, Spielberg, and Tom Hanks released an epic story that told the story of the 506th Infantry Regiment in World War II that known as Easy Company. The show was inspired by historical author Stephen Ambrose and was made into a ten part mini series that has become legendary. The real life characters that showed extreme courage, leadership, and sacrifice are what made this story so successful. Chris's Grandfather, Medic “Doc” Eugene Roe was a central figure in this story that spanned from the D-Day invasion to taking over Hitler's Eagle Nest in Germany. This episode will highlight how Chris keeps the memory of his grandfather and these “band of brothers” alive through his amazing work at Doc Roe Publishing and the children books he has written. If you are a history buff or just appreciate those who work to keep memories alive you will love this episode. The Dallas Police Department has so many talented and unique people and this show is grateful to be in a position to highlight their stories.   Enjoy!   Chri's books and info can be found out https://docroepublishing.com   Books: How Easy Company Became a Band of Brothers Patrick the Paratrooper Draftee Marches with the Band of Brothers    

I don't talk about this much, but my grandpa was a severe alcoholic. And I mean severe. He would disappear for days on benders. As a kid, I never saw it directly, but I lived with the fallout. It shaped my family in ways that are still raw decades later.He was also a World War II veteran. He saw heavy fighting. He came home injured. And he came home to a world that told him to man up and never talk about it. Drinking became his way of surviving what he couldn't process.Here's the thing I've learned with time. I would not be who I am without that experience. Not because it was good, but because I was lucky enough to have parents who were steady, square, and deeply values-driven. They didn't hide what was happening. They talked about it. They taught me that someone else's failure is not your fault.That's why I study learning from failure. That's why I believe people can change. And that's why I believe small steps matter. If you're struggling, one less drink. One honest conversation. One boundary. One tiny step sustained over time.You are not broken. You are not evil. You are responding to pain the best way you know how. And you can choose a different path, one small step at a time.

We're opening the vault for another Happy Hour—this one from 2021 with retired U.S. Navy Captain Matthew “Tom” Maxwell.Tom flew numerous World War II– and Korean War–era aircraft from carriers around the world before eventually finding his way into his favorite platform: the Douglas A-3 Skywarrior. In the “Whale,” he famously saved a fuel-starved F-8 by breaking the rules and refueling the Crusader over North Vietnam, getting the pilot safely back “feet wet.”He was also aboard USS Oriskany during the devastating October 1966 fire that claimed the lives of 44 sailors. Tom captured these stories and many others in his memoir Grandfather's Journal: A Grandson's Journey into His Grandfather's Life, a short and delightful read naval aviation aficionados will enjoy.Sadly, Tom passed away a year after this Happy Hour originally aired and now rests at Arlington National Cemetery.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-fighter-pilot-podcast/donations

A randome message about family gets James to thinking about his Great grandfathers! 

When Kyndal Parks' grandfather died on Black Friday - the day after Thanksgiving – she lost one of her biggest supporters and confidants. While navigating her grief, Kyndal was also navigating life as a college student where she often felt unseen in her grief by faculty and the wider institution. What began as a class assignment turned into a powerful audio piece about loss, legacy, and the urgent need for grief-informed spaces on college campuses, particularly at HBCUs where collective trauma, silence, and resilience intertwine.  In this conversation, Kyndal shares about her grandfather's extraordinary life - from his childhood in the 1940s, to living with a disability, to his time as a Black Panther, a gardener, a traveler, and the steady source of love that shaped her into the person she is today. She talks about the traditions they built together, how her grief shows up even from 2,000 miles away, and why vulnerability and community care are essential if we want to build environments where students who are grieving feel supported.   Kyndal also explores the cultural and historical patterns of grief in Black communities, the pressure to "push through," and her vision for a world where grief is met with connection, not silence.  We discuss: What made Kyndal's grandfather such an influential figure  How his death reshaped her understanding of family, holidays, and identity What grief looked like at her college, and within her family and community Why she created her audio piece and what she hopes listeners take from it  The need for vulnerability, community support, and grief-informed care at HBCUs and beyond  How her grandfather continues to guide her today  Check out News Ambassadors, the program that helped connect us with Kyndal and her audio piece.

In this episode, I speak with Husband, Father, Grandfather, former Pastor, teacher, elder, small group leader, current Chaplain for Young Adults, and Author Sam Wegner on The Weight of The Wait. Listen as Sam shares his touching story of heartbreak and hope. He encourages listeners to see that affliction is how to know that we continue to trust God because he is the one in control. It is impossible to please God without waiting, however; we can trust that God is good and when we struggle to believe this, ask him to reshape our definition of good.  Prayer: Lord, change me so that I can find peace in the storm, continue to seek your face, and fulfill your purpose for me. Find Sam :    the website  If you are feeling lead to help Sam and Crystal on this journal you can do so HERE.   Scripture: Romans 8:24-26 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.   Isaiah 40:31 but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.   Psalm 27:13-14 I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.   Job 13:15 Though he slay me, yet will I hope in him; I will surely defend my ways to his face.   1 Corinthians 16:11 No one, then, should treat him with contempt. Send him on his way in peace so that he may return to me. I am expecting him along with the brothers.   Psalm 119:68 You are good, and what you do is good; teach me your decrees.   Psalm 119:71 It was good for me to be afflicted so that I might learn your decrees.   Daniel 3:17-18 If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliverus from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty's hand. But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up."   Mark 9:23-25 "'If you can'?" said Jesus. "Everything is possible for one who believes."  Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!" When Jesus saw that a crowd was running to the scene, he rebuked the impure spirit. "You deaf and mute spirit," he said, "I command you, come out of him and never enter him again."   Additional Scripture: Hebrews 11, Psalm 34:17-20, Psalm 34:19, 2 Corinthians 12:9, 1 Corinthians 10:13 REGISTER @ CFLEX Academy Arts Enrichment   Listen to our sister podcast:  Abundantly Rooted   Other Resourses: Grab your Artza Subscription Box and bring home a bit of Israel.  use promo code: ARTZAKRISTINARISINGER for 25% off   Check out our Linktree   Get the Books:  Life After Losing A Loved One: How to Turn Grief Into Hope Strength and Purpose Adventures of LiLy and Izzy Bee: The Imagination Journey 

People often wish to know where their ancestors lived and are buried. Journalist Gulshan Sharma came across one such story in Rajasthan's Bandikui while filming the old International Church and a nearby yellow bungalow. After he shared the video, an English couple, the Fernandes family, reached out. They were searching for the grave of their grandfather, a British railway worker who died in the 1950s. Carrying old documents and faded photographs, they travelled from England to Bandikui to see his grave, his home, and the church that still stands today, a quiet reminder that family connections endure across time and distance.

My guest: David Adelman is the CEO of Campus Apartments, founder of Darco Capital, and co-owner of the Philadelphia 76ers. During our conversation, we discussed how losing a basketball bet at age 11 changed his life, investing his bar mitzvah money in real estate, becoming CEO at 25, his grandfather's Holocaust survival story, and why it gives him perspective on struggle, embracing failure, the trade-offs of building something excellent, and what he looks for when hiring leaders. Key Learnings "Why not me? Why not now?" David's mantra cuts through all the overthinking and excuses we make. When he saw other people building national real estate portfolios, he didn't wonder if it was possible—he asked why he couldn't do it. Stop waiting for permission. Stop waiting for the perfect moment. Ask yourself: why not me? Why not now? Make mistakes, just not the same one twice. David doesn't expect perfection from himself or his team. He expects learning. Fail fast, fail forward, but don't repeat the same failure. That's not growth—that's negligence. Embrace the suck, but evolve through it. David's grandfather survived the Holocaust after his wife and children were murdered. He escaped, joined the resistance, and rebuilt his life from nothing. When David thinks about that, he says: "No matter what, I don't know struggle." That's perspective. Most of what we call struggle is just discomfort. Understanding that doesn't make your challenges disappear... It makes them manageable. If your grandfather could survive the unthinkable, you can handle the hard day in front of you. At age 11, David challenged family friend Alan Horwitz to a basketball game and made a wager. Horwitz didn't let the kid win, and David lost his basketball, football, and baseball glove. To get them back, he had to go to Campus Apartments every Saturday to sweep sawdust and stack lumber. This losing bet became his entry into a billion-dollar career. At 13, David gambled his $2,000 bar mitzvah money by investing it with Horwitz in a building at 45th and Pine Streets in Philadelphia - a property his company still owns today. By age 17, he bought his first solely owned investment property. David was accepted into Temple University Beasley School of Law but chose to become a Property Manager at Campus Apartments instead. At age 25 in 1997, he became CEO of Campus Apartments. His grandfather, Sam Wasserman, was captured by the Nazis in 1942 and taken to the Sobibor concentration camp, where his wife and two children were immediately executed. Wasserman escaped during an organized revolt, joined the resistance, was wounded in battle, and was cared for by a woman named Sophie, who became his second wife. David said, "I feel a deep connection to him and what he went through. It's more like a sense of duty to honor him." David says, "I bet on jockeys, not horses. I ask, 'If the thing fails, would we support them again?' To be clear, a lot of our [investments] are going to fail.' He learned the hard way: "Friends would say, 'Here's a deal, put in X amount,' so you know, it's $250,000 or $500,000 or $1 million. I realized very quickly that it's probably a money-losing prospect to just invest in a friend of a friend's idea or because someone at your country club is investing in it." "It's called working off your debt." I literally lost everything to my "Uncle" Alan in 30 minutes when I was 11. My baseball glove, football, basketball, even my bank book. Every Saturday, I had to stack lumber and sweep sawdust to get one item back. Two years later, at my Bar Mitzvah, my parents asked if I wanted to give my gift money to my grandfather, who was good at picking stocks. I said no, I want to give it to Uncle Alan and buy real estate. At 13, I drove around with him, picked the biggest building he owned, handed him $2,000, and became a partner. My grandfather was in Poland with a wife and two kids when the Nazis rounded him up. There were two lines. One for men, one for women, and children. He never saw his wife and kids again. He escaped from the Sobibor prison camp, became a freedom fighter, got shot, and was in a hospital recovering when a woman checking on her brother saw this lonely soldier and went over to check on him. That was my grandmother. My mother was born in a displaced persons camp after the war. "No matter what, when I'm getting the crap kicked out of me in business or anything else, I don't know struggle." I think about my grandfather and what he went through. "That guy knew pressure and made it through the other side. So I have to stop being a little bitch about it and lean in." Uncle Alan always said, "Whatever you do in life, it shouldn't feel like work." I have never said I'm going to work. I say I'm going to the office. Now, am I tired sometimes? A hundred percent. Did I miss a lot of stuff with my kids? Absolutely, and I have deep regret over that. With success and money comes a price, too. Becoming a CEO at 25. "Why not me and why not now?" I live my life by this mantra. In the 1990s, no one was doing student housing at large scale nationally. I saw this white space, and I'm like, fuck it, let's do it. "I'm not afraid to fail. And I think if you're not afraid to fail, it's a freedom." "Embrace the suck." Not everything's gonna be fun. Some things are hard. But sometimes when you push through them, you get to another side. Sometimes you don't, and pulling the plug is okay if it's not working. I've gotten good at understanding that a business might be a great opportunity, a great idea, at the wrong time. When building something…If you aren't willing to make sacrifices earlier in your career and build that foundation for the future, being an entrepreneur might not be for you. I made choices to miss things with my wife and kids. Were all those things I missed worth it? Probably not. My daughters are 21 and 23 now, and I missed a lot of their early growing up. Four years ago, I apologized to my older one, and she said, "You know what, we remember this dad more than that dad." "It's never too late to make a change." After you've done okay financially, it has to be about something else. The guys and women I roll with—"it's not about money. You either are wired to get up and work hard every day and do it, and it has to be about something else." It could be about providing opportunities for the people who work with you, or solving complex problems, or creating a business you're excited about. "I don't think I'm the smartest guy in the room." You have to be open to learning.  I continue to want to learn about other people's businesses. If I meet somebody, I'm like, tell me about that business. If you have that inquisitive mind, some guy tells me he's in the widget business, and I'll think of ten things they should try to do. "I am never too embarrassed to say I don't know something." When we were selecting architects and contractors for the arena, I spoke to owners of the newest stadiums. Just lessons learned about the process. When I mentor kids, I tell them most people are afraid to say "I don't know" or "I don't understand." "If you're embarrassed for looking stupid, isn't it worse if you don't know what you're doing down the road because you didn't ask?" "People don't know how to listen anymore. People wait to talk." They don't listen. When I have dinner with my youngest daughter, I hand her my phone so I won't be on it. I want to be there, I want to be attentive. Why are you wasting time meeting with people if you're not gonna listen to them? "Make lots of mistakes. Just don't make the same one twice." Try hard. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there. The worst thing that happens is someone says no. I met my wife in a bar, literally in line for pizza. Turns out she was the school teacher two different women had told me I needed to call. The funny part is my buddy was talking to her best friend. He married her, I married Hailey, and our kids are best friends. When it comes to sales. "Don't bullshit people. That's my number one goal." People can tell. Even at an early age, I had the humility to say I don't know everything. Here's my business plan, here's why I think I can scale Campus Apartments across the country when that wasn't being done. When I'm hiring or promoting leaders, I look for three things. One is trust—I need to trust them. Two is creating an open line of communication. Three, "I don't think you're a successful leader or CEO if you're not willing to listen." There are a lot of dictator type CEOs. That's not me. Some of them work. "I don't manage from fear, I manage from bringing in opinions." For me, it's about having people who, in their individual swim lanes, are better at those jobs than you are. The DeSean Jackson situation taught me about leading with curiosity. He made some anti-Semitic comments, and people came to me saying we need to cancel him. "Before I get there, I actually just want to find out what his intent was." The things he said were based on him being uninformed about the hurtfulness of those words. Not only was he willing to understand that, but he said, "Can you take me to your Holocaust memorial and actually educate me?" He came with his mom, no press. "It would be nice to take a moment before you're ready to convict somebody and actually have a conversation." When I'm looking at investments, I really have to understand the product. I joke, "Do my kids at least understand it?" Number two: Who's the founder? People matter. I ask myself, if this thing goes bad, and as long as the guy's not a crook, would I invest with them again? "I have to be more than just money in the deal." I like knowing when my influence and input can help make a difference. I think it's strategic thinking, introductions, and being a sounding board. The hardest part about being a founder is that they're afraid to tell investors bad news. "Bad news doesn't get better with time." Advice to young professionals. "Try to get noticed for the right reasons." Show up and go to work. Go get coffee when you see your boss's boss there. Don't be afraid to introduce yourself. Ask lots of questions. Be the person who says, "Could you explain that to me?" Folks in my position really respect that. "Don't be afraid to put out a bad idea." I hate working from home because I think people are screwed by the opportunity to interact with people and better their career and learn things. You're robbed of chance encounters, of overhearing conversations, of learning by proximity. We're building this arena in downtown Philly, not taking any city capital, and doing good things for the city. We came together with Comcast who owns the Flyers. "It's gonna be the best live entertainment venue in the world, located in Philadelphia." We're opening in 2030 with a WNBA team. For those counting Philly out, you're wrong—we're doing great shit here. Reflection Questions David's grandfather survived the Holocaust, which gives David a profound perspective on what real pressure and struggle actually look like. What experiences in your own life or family history could you draw on to reframe the "struggles" you face in your work or personal life? He lives by the mantra "Why not me? Why not now?" and says that not being afraid to fail is a freedom. What opportunity are you currently overthinking or waiting on "permission" for? What would change if you asked yourself those two questions right now? David regrets missing parts of his daughters' childhoods while building his businesses, but his daughter told him, "We remember this dad more than that dad." Meaning it's never too late to make a change. What relationship in your life needs you to show up differently, and what's one concrete thing you could change this week?

This week we are chatting with Tony Guseli.Born in Australia to Italian immigrant parents, Tony has discovered a strong passion into family research. He shared with us some of the interesting stories he has uncovered, particularly in relation to his Grandfather's story of being abandoned at birth in Italy.Tony also told us some fascinating details about the Snowy Scheme, a hydroelectricity and irrigation complex located in New South Wales. With work on the scheme commencing in 1949, it is the largest engineering project ever undertaken in Australia. The Snowy Scheme employed hundreds of migrant men from several places, including Italy. Many people don't know the story of the Snowy Scheme and of its many accidents which claimed the lives of 121 men, 27 of whom were Italian. One of those men was Tony's uncle Antonio. Tony is on a mission to tell the story of these men and has already spent countless hours on research. It's a huge task and without Tony's efforts these stories will not be told.If you have any details which can be added to Tony's research he asks that you please reach out, you can do this getting in touch with us or by clicking the links in the show notes.Tony's email:guselitvg@bigpond.comItalian Australian Podcast email:italianaustralianpodcast@gmail.com

Galatia, the "Ukrainian Piedmont," and the Threat of Ukrainian Nationalism. Professor Eugene Finkel touches on the life of his Jewish grandfather, Lev, from Galatia, who joined the Red Army in 1940, illustrating how parts of Ukraine were not under Russian control until World War II. Russia viewed the tolerant Austro-Hungarian region of Galatia as a dangerous "Ukrainian Piedmont" that could spread nationalism. Russia's goal of controlling Galatia and assimilating its people was a key driver of World War I. The collapse of the Russian Empire in 1917 allowed for the brief, weak existence of the first Ukrainian state. Guest: Professor Eugene Finkel. 1859

Losing a Father to Addiction and Finding Purpose with Angie Nunez | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this episode of The Hopeaholics Podcast, guest Angie Nunez shares her deeply personal journey of loss, healing, and spiritual awakening. Born and raised in the Bronx to Dominican parents, Angie reflects on her upbringing, cultural roots, and the challenges of growing up in a tight-knit immigrant family. She opens up about losing her father to addiction after his long battle with opioids and cancer, revealing how his passing inspired her to create her own show, Sins of My Father, to honor his story and shed light on the struggles of addiction and generational pain. Angie speaks candidly about her grief and the process of finding strength through self-awareness, spirituality, and faith. She discusses how her spiritual journey helped her reconnect with her father's memory, embrace her shadow self, and release shame through forgiveness and understanding. The conversation also explores her marriage, motherhood, and her husband's transition from military life to rediscovering purpose through service and compassion with their project A Meal with Humanity, which brings food and dignity to the homeless in New Jersey. Through vulnerability and resilience, Angie's story embodies love, transformation, and the belief that even through loss, healing and light can emerge.#thehopeaholics  #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

Jackie Orena is the granddaughter of Victor "Little Vic" Orena, who was allegedly the acting boss of the Colombo crime family according to federal prosecutors. Today, Victor is 91 years old, experiencing significant health issues, and is still serving what is effectively a life sentence in federal prison.This conversation does not glorify organized crime or the past. Instead, it focuses on the deeply human side of this story — what it means to watch a loved one grow old behind bars.

I apologize for missing last week, but apparently if you're unable to eat solid food for several days the pounds just melt away! I have some work to do on my health, but the work will be done. One thing that I forgot to mention in this weeks show is that this week we have Remembrance Day in the Commonwealth and Veterans day in the USA. Having stood on Tower bridge in London, and the docks in Hamburg I'm just glad that the idea of bombing either city now is such an inconceivable thing. Hamburg was also a significant visit for me because my Grandfather was a part of Operation Gomorrah. The first track is also dedicated to the people at ICE.

In a cinema in south-west Germany an audience is gathered to watch an Oscar winning film, Zone of Interest, about the life of Rudolf Höss, Commandant of Auschwitz. Those present comprise Jewish people from around the world, and the special guest is Rudolf's grandson. The topic was rarely visited during Kai's childhood. It was only after a school history lesson that Kai began to comprehend Rudolf's role as head of the largest mass murder site in history. Reporter Shiroma Silva travels to his home in Germany to question Kai on his personal struggle. She tracks Kai's outlook today through Christianity, in which he uses his past to look forward and understand the particular place of Jewish people in the Bible. He questions how antisemitism thrived in Christian societies and his grandfather's early life in a devout Catholic family. This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from Heart and Soul, exploring personal approaches to spirituality from around the world

No Money, No Mission: The Truth About Pricing Your Cash Practice In this episode, Doc Danny Matta shares what he's seeing across dozens of clinics: most cash PT owners are undercharging—especially in high cost-of-living markets. He breaks down a four-clinic pricing test, why price ≠ local median income, and clear targets for sustainable margins so you can hire, retain talent, and keep your mission alive. Quick Ask Help us reach our mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to physical therapy: share this episode with a clinician friend or post it to your Instagram stories and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare! Episode Summary Pricing drives scale: Bigger, healthier clinics almost always charge more and keep volume steady enough to grow. Four-clinic test: Comparing average visit rates vs. local median household income showed no clean correlation—the lowest-income market had the highest price point. Fear tax: Owners fear backlash when raising prices; in reality, drop-off is rare and usually limited to poor-fit patients. Market targets: Most markets need $190–$200+/visit average. High-cost markets (NYC, SF, LA, Boston, Chicago, etc.) should target $250+/visit. Mid-sized-city edge: Lower overhead + above-average pricing = clinics running 40%+ net margins. No money, no mission: Healthy pricing funds salaries, benefits, space, culture, leadership development—everything that sustains impact. Lessons & Takeaways Price for your costs, not your fears: Match rates to COL, rent, salaries, and benefits—or growth stalls. Volume x Price = Revenue: Find your sweet spot; small price lifts often don't dent demand. Benchmark with peers: Mastermind conversations expose underpricing fast. Raise with intent: Reinvest into team, space, and patient experience. Mindset & Motivation Permission to charge: Premium outcomes and experience justify premium pricing. Mission requires margin: You can't build great jobs or serve at scale without profit. Courage compound: Every successful price raise builds confidence for the next. Pro Tips for Owners Set targets by market: Standard markets: $190–$200+ AVV. High-COL markets: $250+ AVV. Audit contribution margin: Know your per-visit profit after labor, room, and overhead. Use pricing tiers: Eval premium, follow-up standard, package/plan discounts tied to outcomes (not minutes). Communicate simply: "To reach your goal, most people need X visits over Y months. The investment is Z." Then pause. Grandfather gracefully: Honor legacy rates for a window; apply new pricing for new plans. Notable Quotes "What you charge isn't just income—it's how you fund salaries, benefits, space, and leadership." "No money, no mission. Your purpose can't survive long-term on underpricing." "Most fear a mass exodus after a price raise. It almost never happens." Action Items Calculate your actual AVV (average visit value) over the last 90 days. Compare against your market target ($190–$200+ or $250+ in high-COL areas). Plan a 10–20% price adjustment with clear rollout (date, scripts, FAQs). Reinvest the lift into team comp/benefits and patient experience. Benchmark with two peers this week—confirm you're not the outlier undercharging.
