this is a comedy ""podcast"" btw believe it or not. It is a joke, it is parody, it is satire. It is not serious; it is not meant to be taken seriously. I do not condone the physical harming or even light harassment of real estate agents in any way shape or form. Do not call, text, or email Jeffrey Doussan or Keller Williams of New Orleans. Do not write funny bad reviews on yelp or google or furnished finder. Do not send pipe bombs or bomb threats to his house or any of his listed properties. I mean it! If you do any of these things you will be banned from podcasts forever. Thank you enjoy the show. Looking at rentals is really fun cuz real estate agents and property managers are some of the most redacted and oblivious people you have to trust with your livelihood. Recently I had scheduled to see a place and the guy no showed, no contact I messaged and emailed him multiple times and 3 days later he texted "apologies out of town." He then proceeds to try to reschedule immediately for the next day at 11am I say can we do 2pm he says no we can't let's do Monday 2pm I say okay Monday 2pm he says great I say great and then he says actually we can do tomorrow Friday 2pm i say perfect cool then Friday at 11am he says you must think we're crazy but we're actually just short-handed can you do monday 2pm and then i showed up today Monday at 2pm and the guy is 10 minutes late, I text the guy and he said "oh Philip's not there?" Philip the minion shows up within 1 minute of me texting, Philip says haha it's good thing our office is right around the corner and he points to a building literally right behind the rental and gives me the dorkiest fcking smile and I want to drown Philip in a puddle. We go to open the door and he doesn't have the right keypad code. I stand around in the rain for about 5 minutes while he calls and texts people and then he's like oh we can just try the other side of the duplex and I asked if the other side is the same layout and price and furnishings and he said no so I said no and so we sat in the rain for another 5 minutes and he finally gets the code and we go in. It looks like the last tenant had just left, all the lights and tvs are on and trash cans full, poop splatters on the toilet and it smells like cat piss. Despite this, I message the property manager that I am interested and would like to move forward with my application and he likes my message and says nothing else. $1400/month. a few years ago, a property manager was stunned that I requested to inspect the house before signing a legal document that said we conducted an inspection and told me I was the first person to ever do so. He addressed me as "Gay bro" in a text and it was never acknowledged $1754/month 440 sq feet #italiano #realestateagent #propertymanagement When you were investing in real estate, I studied the blade. When you were having open houses, I mastered the blockchain. While you wasted your days at the bank in pursuit of equity, I cultivated inner strength. And now that the world is on fire and the barbarians are at the gate you have the audacity to come to me for rent.   It's free! Real estate! We're giving you land! It's free. We're giving you a house. It's real estate. Free. It's a free house for you, Jim. This is free real estate! You gotta bring furniture, but the house is free! Two bedrooms, no rugs. It's free! You unlock the door to your free house, we got you the real estate! It's a two bedroom house, its free, its got a pool in the back. I'm not carrying this around all day! It's for your house! Free real estate, I'll pee my pants. Jim, come get your damn land. It's a free house! Jim, I got real estate. Jim, does it get better than this? Jim! The house is free! Jim! The house is free!

Ever since Denver Water was founded in 1918, the agency has demonstrated enviable foresight, building out a massive infrastructure across 4,000 square miles to ensure Denver's population (and economy) can continue to grow. But now that reservoirs and rivers are drying up across the West, is it time for Denver to share the wealth? Today, Colorado's top water reporter, Luke Runyon of KUNC, joins producer Paul Karolyi to explain where Denver fits into the recent conflict over the Colorado River and offer an outsider's perspective on Denver Water's ambitious growth.  For more from Luke Runyon, you can find all his water reporting for KUNC here.  Paul mentioned his June interview with Denver Water's chief planner Greg Fisher, Denver Water's Gross Reservoir Expansion Project, and the Denver Post's report on mosquito problems in southeast Denver.  Thirsty for more Denver happenings to start your week?

Do we really need the moisture? Or is that just something Denverites like to say? Recently, local news has been awash in headlines about the state of Colorado's water supply, and it's got us wondering: Is Denver at risk of running out? Are we good or bad at the natural resource game? Are we water suckers or water misers? Today on the show, Producer Paul Karolyi talks with Denver Water's chief planner Greg Fisher about the Mile High City's own H2O situation and what — if anything — Denverites could to do better when it comes to our water usage.  Paul mentioned several scary water stories, including Governor Polis signing a bill last week offering cash to folks who rip out their water-sucking lawns; Aurora looking at banning future lawns and golf courses; and then there was a potential (but ultimately shelved) plan to pipe water from the San Luis Valley to Douglas County.

As one of Greg Fisher's partners recently said, “There's a difference between an Owner and a Founder; and Greg is a Founder.” Greg joins us today to share his entrepreneurial journey and how he grew TripShock into one of the largest online tour & activity marketplaces in the country. When Greg launched TripShock back in 2009, he faced significant headwinds as he battled to get the platform up and running. Most water sports and attractions were still managed by pen and paper during this time, so not only did he have to convince companies to have trust in TripShock, he had to also convince them on the premise of moving into the digital era.13 years since launch, TripShock is now in more than 25 US destinations and is continuing to expand - a journey that has been accomplished through organic growth and without accepting any outside capital. Greg also shares stories from behind the microphone of the Awkward Watersports Guys Podcast, which has quickly become the unified voice of the water sports industry. Greg and his partner Kevin O'Neil deliver an informational (and entertaining) show that appeals to business owners, marketers and entrepreneurs from all industries - just don't listen with your kids in the car, Kevin gets a little wild from time to time :) Finally, Greg delivers a raw explanation of NFTs and how businesses can use blockchain to progress into Web3 technology. He provides a VERY important piece of advice for businesses that you don't want to miss!Watch on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/8k6g9hRXBnQCONTACT GREG FISHERLinkedInCONTACT ALEX & ANNIEAlexandAnniePodcast.comLinkedIn | Facebook | InstagramAlex Husner - LinkedinAnnie Holcombe - LinkedinPodcast Sponsored by Condo-World and Lexicon TravelLexicon Travel- Navigation not Autmation Lexicon Travel helps navigate the complexities of distribution for vacation rentals

AttractionPros has officially reached its 200th episode!  To celebrate, we decided to have an episode that invited our audience of fellow attraction professionals to participate in a collaborative conversation.  The topic chosen was timely and focused on the resurgence of themed entertainment offerings as vaccinations against COVID-19 climb, infections fall, and restrictions are lifted.  While the attractions industry was deemed non-essential by health and government leaders during the hardest moments of the pandemic, attractions will be essential to economic recovery and a return to a sense of normalcy.  While some changes are here to stay, there are opportunities for themed entertainment to roar back, and as Johnathan Lee Iverson, the Last Ringmaster of Ringling Bros. Circus, stated, this is a chance for the industry to soar to new heights.   From an economic recovery standpoint, location-based entertainment is essential for drawing people out of their homes, bringing them out into their communities or new areas, and encouraging spending wherever they may be visiting.  Tom Moulton, with the Southern Arizona Attractions Alliance, highlighted that attractions are “destination drivers,” bringing money to their communities.  This is true whether a family stays close to home or whether they plan an elaborate trip in another state or country.  Ike Kwon, with the California Academy of Sciences, expanded upon this economic impact by pointing out the many jobs that are supported by the attractions industry.  Ike also pointed out that many attractions are deeply rooted in their communities and even when they faced economic uncertainty due to closures, chose to give back to their communities.   Giving back to the community that embraces them has always been part of the culture for many themed entertainment venues, and that only increased during the pandemic.  Ron Gustafson, with Quassy Amusement Park, discussed how the park had been an essential part of its community for 113 years.  They chose to support members of their community by partnering with nonprofits in their area to host food drives and collect donations of personal items.  Andreas Andersen, with Liseberg, discussed how integral Liseberg is to the “social and cultural fabric of their community.”  Theme parks aren't just places with thrill rides, but they also represent gathering places for shared experiences with family, friends, and even new acquaintances.    Exciting destinations are the perfect places to make lasting memories with loved ones.  Greg Fisher, with TripShock, shared the importance of preserving attractions so that memories can be made for generations to come.  Adam Sandy, of Zamperla, pointed out that so many shared experiences happen at theme parks, from first roller coaster rides to first dates.  Keith James, from Jack Rouse Associates, pointed out that the emotions, the laughter, the joy, and the relief from stress that attractions provide are essential.  Theme parks have often been a respite from the chaos of day-to-day life, but now the guests need them to be a respite from the harsh reality of the pandemic and its related challenges.   2020 was an incredibly challenging year for everyone, but many are approaching 2021, and especially its second half, with a renewed sense of hope for a return to pre-pandemic normalcy.  Matt Eckert, of Holiday World & Splashin' Safari, talked about how exciting it was to be open again and gifting happiness and laughter to their guests.  After all, those are gifts everyone truly needs after this past challenging year.  Audrey Jowett, from Revolution Adventures, talked about how attractions have an ability to give their guests a perceived sense of normalcy by keeping up their enhanced cleaning and safety standards but drawing less attention to it with signage and announcements.  Louis Alfieri, of Raven Sun Creative, pointed out some of the connectivity alternatives that have been utilized throughout the pandemic and the ability to deliver some elements of themed entertainment virtually, but he went on to state that nothing completely replaces the value of real-world destinations.   Whether they are family entertainment centers, zoos, aquariums, museums, theme parks, or other location-based offerings, attractions offer opportunities to have adventures with our friends and family that turn into life-long memories.  Mark Rosenzweig, of 3dx Scenic, stated that the world is an exciting place that should be explored.  Brandon Willey, from Hownd, pointed out that “humans crave experiences,” whether they are looking to learn something new, “get a dose of adrenaline,” or celebrate with loved ones.  There are many different reasons for wanting to visit an attraction.   Besides being places that offer a good time, many experiences sneak in educational moments for their guests.  Some of the best venues for “edutainment” are zoos, aquariums, and museums. Felicia Cook, with The Dolphin Company, discussed the importance their “nature ambassadors,” or the animals in their care, have on the guests that visit.  In addition to conducting research and educating the public on the importance of wildlife, attractions like The Dolphin Company contribute directly to the health of Earth's ecosystems by rescuing, rehabilitating, and releasing animals.  Jennifer Berthiaume, of Lion Country Safari, discussed the importance of educating the public about conservation by highlighting humanity's connection to wildlife.  Jennifer also highlighted a study from the St. Louis Zoo that found that “a visit to the zoo is good for health,” physically and mentally.   The pandemic has put an increased amount of strain on many people's mental wellbeing, which has brought greatly-needed attention to the importance of taking care of one's mental health in addition to physical health.  Sarah Cole, of Glazer Children's Museum, pointed out that children have been greatly affected by the isolation of the pandemic, causing a mental health crisis in kids.  She said that museums and other attractions offer a “space for respite and joy.”  Marcus Gaines, from Coaster Touring, agreed and stated that the escapism granted through location-based experiences help to promote mental wellness.  Paul Griffiths, of Painshill Park Trust, talked about how attractions create spaces for employees and volunteers to escape from loneliness and connect with each other and guests in a meaningful way.  He also discussed how connecting with nature through parks and other outdoor venues are opportunities to better our mental and physical well being.   However, green spaces aren't the only attractions that improve their guests' mental and physical wellbeing.  Ryan Borton, of Funovation, discussed how Funovation's offerings, like their laser mazes, challenge players' “brain and brawn.”  This mental and physical challenge is fun but also rewarding for both mental and physical wellness.  Similarly, Luke and Cody Schueler, of Flying Squirrel Sports, talked about the many physical benefits of playing at indoor trampoline parks and similar attractions, such as improving your coordination, practicing your balance skills, and reducing your fatigue.  Additionally, these sorts of experiences can increase bonds between family and friends, to the benefit of everyone's mental wellbeing.  The opportunity to get out and play at attractions is something that was greatly limited during the worst days of the pandemic, but people are certainly wasting no time getting back to these fun, physical, mentally-freeing activities.   Another important aspect of the return to these fun activities and attractions is making sure that they are safe and accessible for all.  Bob McCullough, of Morgan's Wonderland, discussed the importance of having accessible options that anyone can enjoy.  Morgan's Wonderland was designed to accommodate guests of all ages and abilities and to remove barriers so that anyone attending can have a wonderful experience.  Pam Landwirth, from Give Kids the World Village, also discussed the importance of accessibility and highlighted the accessible rides gifted to the park by Zamperla.  Pam summed it up beautifully by saying, “To see the joy on a child's face to ride a ride for the very first time and to see their parents crying because they're able to watch their children do it, I think that's what makes us essential.”   In addition to providing magical moments for all guests, many attractions also provide a fulfilling purpose to their employees.  Rachel Harper, of Castle Fun Park, pointed out that many employees of attractions would describe themselves as “people people” and find joy in going above and beyond to give their guests an unforgettable experience.  I, Paige Reiter, the writer of the weekly AttractionPros podcast summaries, shared a story I had heard about a volunteer at Give Kids the World who didn't find their purpose in life until they helped create cherished memories for the critically ill but incredibly brave children and their families who visit the park.     There are many remarkable stories related to the incredible impact that attractions have on their employees, their guests, and their communities.  AttractionPros will continue to do our part to highlight the many amazing attractions, experiences, and the people that make them happen for many episodes to come.  Please contact us on any platform if you'd like to contribute a story, suggest a guest, or highlight an attraction.   This podcast wouldn't be possible without the work of our amazing team: Audio and video editing - Abigail Giganan Complete episode summary - Paige Reiter Scheduling and correspondence - Kristen Karaliunas Social media marketing - Kate Kujawa Branding and design - Fabiana Fonseca To contact AttractionPros: attractionpros@gmail.com

All photos courtesy of Granite Peak.Why I interviewed him Because in the ski snob chain of dismissiveness, the West looks down on the East, the East looks down on the Midwest, and the Midwest ignores them all. They’re too busy skiing. The Upper Midwest is home to one of the most well-defined, ingrained, and passionate ski cultures in the world. The sheer volume and variety of ski areas in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota is a testament to this, and among them are some of the most unique ski areas in the country. Mount Bohemia, perched at the top of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, delivers one of the wildest ungroomed lift-served ski experiences in the nation. Minnesota’s Lutsen is big, cold, and endless, with the region’s only gondola – which connects two peaks and rises all of 308 vertical feet. And while the Midwest is dotted with 200-foot bumps with nine chairlifts and an impossible anthill of frenetic youngsters, Granite Peak is not one of them. It has 700 vertical feet of terrain set on a broad ridge and served by three high-speed lifts that barrel up the mountain. And it’s not done growing yet. To learn more about this regional gem and see where it may be headed next, I wanted to talk to the person in charge of it all.Fisher, masked up and out in the snow. What we talked aboutMount Snow in the ASC and early Peak Resorts days; bringing $17 St. Patty’s Day lift tickets to the Northeast; beer fixes everything; Ohio skiing; Midwest night-skiing culture; opening the bar and the slopes until well after midnight for college students; North Conway is the Northeast’s best ski town; the Peak Pass lands and it was kind of a big deal; how the pass fared against the Epic and Ikon passes; the brilliance of the Drifter Pass, the now-defunct Peak Resorts pass for broke-ass twentysomethings; reaction to Vail buying Peak in 2019; moving back to the Midwest to take the top job at Granite Peak; the ski area’s supercharged lift and snowmaking infrastructure; Charles Skinner, the owner of the largest ski areas in Minnesota and Wisconsin, and his track record of building Midwest monsters; the rabid Upper Midwest ski culture; Granite Peak’s 7-year-old snow reporter; the skibum life of a general manager’s son; what’s up with all the reindeer?; the vision and status of Granite Peak’s expansion; MTB trail development; why a gondola would make sense on a 700-vertical-foot hill; why the glades from Granite Peak’s old trailmaps disappeared from their current one; future night skiing expansion; an update on the Indy Pass partnership and how the pass is growing aggressively in the Midwest; base lodge modifications; Midwest boot-up culture; and Covid ops modifications that may stick around after the virus fades.Airing it out at Granite Peak.Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewBecause Fisher is in his first year as head of the ski area, guiding it through Covid and setting it up for what should be a booming future. The resort’s expansion plans appear to be gaining momentum after a previous effort dead-ended. This ambitious project would further anchor Granite Peak as a flagship Midwest destination, a ski area that can legitimately eat several days of skiing and substitute for a trip to the Rockies. The ski area is also wrapping up its first year as an Indy Pass partner, a huge win for the pass and one that helped establish it as the Midwest’s go-to ski frequency product. This was a good time to confirm that that partnership would continue, discuss expansion, and look toward the end of pandemic skiing and start to imagine what that could look like. The oldest chairlift at Granite Peak was installed in 2001.Why you should go thereIf you only hit one ski area in Wisconsin, this should be the one. Among the forest of kinda small and kinda underwhelming and kinda outdated hills poking out of the state’s countryside, Granite Peak soars, big and modern and fast, flush with glades and the kind of interesting and varied terrain alien to so many Midwest hills. While 700 vertical feet is small in most regions, it is titanic in the Midwest. After Granite Peak, the next largest vertical drop in the state is Mount La Crosse, at 516 feet. Vail’s Wilmot is just 230 feet. The ski area is one of five in Wisconsin on the Indy Pass, making it a no-brainer stop on an upper Midwest ski tour. Along with sister ski area Lutsen, in neighboring Minnesota, this is one of the finest ski areas in the region, and with three high-speed lifts – all of them less than 20 years old - accessing 100 percent of its terrain, the resort is one of the most well-appointed in the nation.

On this episode of Tourpreneur a podcast for tour operators and tour professionals, Greg Fisher, CEO of Tripshock shares his journey with host Shane Whaley, of how he founded the company and how he has grown tours and activities OTA Tripshock over the last 10 years. Greg Fisher reveals: How working at a hotel led him to start up Tripshock. How he developed the idea and executed on it. Having no budget he could not go out and hire SEO and digital marketing experts (sound familiar?) so he shares how he went about learning the skills he needed. Why he feels that OTAs charging 30% commission is not feasible for many smaller tour operators such as fishing boat tours and charters. The decision he took after the Gulf Coast oil spill that almost crushed his business. What he learned as a result of this decision. What customers are looking for when they want to book tours and activities online. The importance of saying no (or not yet) to some tour operators and who want to work with Tripshock. All the Tripshock staff is remote-based. How he builds a Tripshock work culture when all his staff is based remotely. He has not taken any investment funds from VCs. Why he set up TripCon. Why he wrote to Nike's Phil Knight and why he recommends his memoirs Shoe Dog. How he initially struggled to manage a work/life balance and why it is important for tourpreneurs to work at this. And Much More!

Greg Fisher, who for years was a missionary in Africa, tells that when he was growing up in the U.S., his dad was a street evangelist.  Yes, he preached openly on the streets to anyone who would listen. Greg tells about going with his dad when he was only seven years old to a spot in Hollywood right in front of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre to hand out Christian leaflets while his dad preached to the crowds who lined up for the Sunday matinee at the theater.  One bystander began to yell at his dad—not an uncommon experience for street preachers. But what amazed Greg even at that young age was that the thing that set the man off was the mention of the name of Jesus.

This week the President of the United States meet with the survivors and families of victims of Orlando’s Pulse Night Club shooting. His remarks, meant to comfort those in attendance, were also filled with secular progressive dog whistles to signal his intention to silence voices of opposition in the Christian community. Christians are supposed to have an unfailing moral compass in the word of God. But, the church, having realized it lost the culture wars, is in retreat … and Christians are shedding their moral compass to lighten their load while retreating the battlefield…and to allow them to blend in with the population. Is the answer for the Church to simply be BIBLE-ISH or even BIBLE-LESS? You’ll learn more on this edition of Radio Free Patmos Island with Greg Fisher and John Rusk. Today (Friday, June 17th) at 1:30 PM (central)
