Bobby found a story about women dating men 10 years younger, so we need Amy’s official age range for the guys she’s willing to date. She also opens up about where things stand with dating someone new. Then we battle over Bobby’s Top 10 Country Artists of the 2000s. And finally, a show member gets exposed for doing something absolutely disgusting involving the work bathroom and their morning drink. You really don’t want to know.

What if spending time in nature isn't simply good for you, but something your brain is biologically designed to need? In this solo episode, Darin explores the sensory neuroscience of nature and the growing research suggesting that our increasingly indoor lives may be fundamentally mismatched with the environments our brains and nervous systems evolved to experience. From walls and screens to fluorescent lights, traffic, right angles, and constant notifications, modern environments bombard us with sensory inputs our ancestors never encountered at this scale. The numbers put that mismatch into perspective. Darin highlights research suggesting the average American spends roughly 87% of life indoors and another 6% inside vehicles. In other words, we've effectively become an indoor species living inside outdoor-evolved bodies, brains, eyes, and nervous systems. Darin breaks down why this isn't merely another reminder to "go outside." He explores how modern environments place continuous demands on executive attention, why sustained attention can eventually give way to rumination and mental chatter, and what more than 100 brain-imaging studies may reveal about what happens when we finally return our brains to natural environments. This episode ultimately asks a surprisingly important question: What if nature isn't a luxury or lifestyle preference, but a biological input we've slowly removed from our lives? What You'll Learn Why your brain evolved for branches, coastlines, clouds, mountains, and irregular natural geometry instead of straight lines How much of the average American's life is now spent indoors or inside vehicles Why Darin describes modern life as an evolutionary mismatch for the nervous system How artificial environments continually demand processing from your executive attention system Why sustained directed attention can eventually lead to fatigue, rumination, and mental chatter How light, sound, movement, visual patterns, and circadian cues shaped the human nervous system Why simply telling people to "go outside more" may underestimate what's happening neurologically What researchers mean by high-load visual and auditory environments What a review of more than 100 brain-imaging studies investigated about nature exposure What the brain scans reveal about nature, fractal patterns, rumination, and neural restoration in the second half of the episode Chapters 00:00:03 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:34 – Sponsor: Alkemis 00:03:25 – When was the last time you stopped seeing straight lines? 00:03:49 – Your brain wasn't designed for the geometry of modern life 00:04:44 – The sensory neuroscience of nature 00:05:14 – Why your nervous system may be starving indoors 00:05:49 – Darin records the episode outside 00:06:04 – How much of our lives do we actually spend indoors? 00:06:48 – Outdoor-evolved humans have become an indoor species 00:07:47 – Why "go outside" is more than feel-good advice 00:08:22 – The evolutionary mismatch affecting your nervous system 00:09:33 – Ancient biological hardware in a radically modern environment 00:09:49 – How indoor environments overload your attention system 00:10:47 – Sponsor: Manna Vitality 00:12:42 – Your attention system wasn't built for infinite stimulation 00:13:00 – Rumination, looping thoughts, and mental chatter 00:13:24 – The fatal convenience of modern civilization 00:13:58 – What we've removed from the human sensory environment 00:14:19 – The neuroscience deep dive begins 00:14:40 – More than 100 brain-imaging studies on nature exposure 00:15:18 – The question researchers wanted to answer 00:15:19 – Why the rest of the neuroscience matters 00:15:34 – What do brain scans actually show when you enter nature? 00:15:49 – Continue the full episode on Patreon 00:15:52 – The four-stage neurological cascade coming next 00:16:02 – Fractal fluency and the hidden geometry of nature 00:16:07 – Nature, the brain, and depressive rumination 00:16:18 – How much nature does your brain actually need? 00:16:31 – Final thoughts and Patreon continuation Thank You to Our Sponsors Alkemis: Go to https://alkemispaint.com/ and use code DARIN10 for 10% off your order.

Your nervous system developed over hundreds of thousands of years surrounded by sunlight, wind, trees, irregular sounds, natural rhythms, and complex patterns, yet we've replaced much of that environment with walls, screens, fluorescent lights, traffic, notifications, and straight lines. Going outside isn't simply a nice thing to do when you have extra time. Nature may be one of the fundamental sensory inputs your brain has been waiting for you to put back into your life."

In June 1962, 20-year-old Marlys Gross gave birth to a daughter named Mary Agnes at Worthington Regional Hospital in Minnesota after a difficult, heavily sedated labor; she later recalled seeing the infant's feet move and briefly viewing a baby who did not look dead—not cyanotic, with dark hair and forceps marks—before being told the child had lived only about an hour. She was too ill to attend the funeral, but her friend Judy Voges saw a different-looking infant at the funeral home, her mother Clara photographed a closed casket and noticed an unknown family mourning at the gravesite, and only one fresh grave was visible despite reports that another baby, Pamela Rae Dickey, had also died and been buried the same day. Official records later proved contradictory—a birth certificate describing a healthy live birth at 6:23 p.m. versus a death certificate calling the infant stillborn at 6:20 p.m.—the cemetery had no burial record for Mary Agnes, an anonymous photo of a family with a newborn arrived three months later, and a 1996 exhumation found remains that DNA showed belonged to neither Mary Agnes nor Pamela. The case remains unsolved: whether Mary Agnes died and the records and burial were simply mishandled, or whether a living infant was taken and another child's body placed in the grave, has never been resolved.   Sources: https://web.archive.org/web/19990222082412/http:/unsolved.com/magross.html https://groups.google.com/g/alt.crime/c/GGrerrScq1Y https://unsolvedmysteries.fandom.com/wiki/Mary_Agnes_Gross https://open.spotify.com/episode/2u6PQBzRUwzE1BfMe3rjwA   Join The Dark Oak Discussion: Patreon The Dark Oak Podcast Website Facebook Instagram Twitter TikTok Youtube This episode of The Dark Oak was created, researched, written, recorded, hosted, edited, published, and marketed by Cynthia and Stefanie of Just Us Gals Productions with artwork by Justyse Himes and Music by Ryan Creep

Comics can do so much! Author/artist double-threats Gideon Kendall, Miss Lasko-Gross, and Rick Parker assemble to discuss how they have used comics to explore their stories and real-life experiences. Sometimes they probe memories and at other points they use comics to bend reality as they share in words and illustration. Gideon is known for his work on WAIT...It Gets Worse, I Am the Audience, WHATZIT, and more. Miss is known for Henni, A Mess of Everything, The Sweetness, and more. And Rick has worked on Marvel titles, as well as the autobiographical OGN Drafted.   We tackle questions of process, inspiration, and tap into future works that these creators are envisioning.

Gross contamination of vascular access devices can occur when catheter connections, hubs, tubing, or primary dressings are exposed to bodily fluids, moisture, environmental debris, or other contaminants. These events may be especially visible in pediatric care, but the underlying risks are relevant across settings, including adult critical care, oncology, home infusion, and long-term vascular access.In this episode, a Pediatric Clinical Nurse Specialist from Seattle Children's Hospital will draw on real-world clinical experience to discuss everyday contamination risks, why they matter, and how clinicians can better prevent, recognize, and respond to them.AVA would like to thank Covalon for supporting this episode.Watch the podcast on YouTube

A $4 million roofing contractor is busy and short on cash. He thinks he needs more leads. But once we examine the whole business, the real problems are somewhere else.A roofing contractor calls me and says:Dave, we're doing $4 million a year. We're busy, but there's never enough cash. I think we need more leads.Maybe he does.But what if leads aren't the problem? What if spending more money on marketing actually makes things worse?In this episode, I walk through a fictional $4 million roofing company using the same whole-business approach behind my new Roofing Business Health Check.We examine all three legs of a healthy roofing business:• Sell Work• Do Work• Keep ScoreThe owner thinks he needs more leads, but we find missed calls, estimates nobody followed up on and old opportunities sitting untouched in the CRM.Then we look at production. Sales promises aren't making it into the job package, change orders aren't always collected and completed jobs aren't being properly job-costed.Finally, we examine the numbers. Gross profit is slipping, overhead is growing and the owner is running a $4 million company without a clear financial scorecard.More leads won't fix those problems. They could make them worse.In this episode, you'll learn:Why revenue doesn't tell you whether your business is healthyHow poor follow-up wastes leads you already paid forWhy more sales can make a weak production system worseHow a seven-point gross profit drop can cost a $4 million company $280,000Why leadership, ownership and accountability matterHow to use the Two-Week Vacation testThe three priorities I would give this contractorWhy you need to diagnose the real problem before deciding on the solutionROOFING BUSINESS HEALTH CHECKThe Roofing Business Health Check is a whole-business examination with me, Dave Sullivan.We'll look at:Financial HealthSales and MarketingOperationsLeadershipSystemsWe'll spend up to two hours looking at the business.

Britain's obesity crisis is getting worse, and the latest figures suggest younger adults are gaining weight faster than ever. According to the King's Fund, obesity rates in England are now at record levels, with around 30% of adults living with obesity or severe obesity, roughly double the proportion seen in the early 1990s. Among 16 to 24-year-olds, the rise is even more striking. Around 18% are now obese or severely obese, compared with just 6% in 1993.Hence the title of this episode of Mark and Pete: Gross Britannia: Britain Is Getting Fatter.Cheerful stuff.But beneath the slightly rude title sits a serious question. What on earth has happened to us?This is not simply a matter of people becoming greedier, lazier, or somehow morally defective because they have discovered crisps. The environment around food has changed enormously. Ultra-processed food is cheap, convenient, heavily marketed and everywhere. Portion sizes have grown. Delivery apps can now bring a week's worth of calories to the front door before you've found your slippers. Many jobs involve sitting down all day, entertainment involves sitting down all evening, and even shopping can be done while remaining impressively horizontal.And then there is poverty, stress, sleep, mental health, childhood habits, lack of exercise, local environment and, increasingly, medication.The arrival of Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro has changed the obesity debate dramatically. These drugs can help some people lose significant amounts of weight and may prove enormously important medically. But do we really want the national plan to be: create an obesogenic culture, then inject everybody afterwards?That seems, well, slightly backwards.The King's Fund says England has had 14 government obesity strategies since 1992, while obesity has continued to rise. There are now thought to be around 14 million adults in England living with obesity or severe obesity, with vast consequences for diabetes, heart disease, joint problems, NHS demand and public spending.So what should actually change?Do we regulate junk-food advertising more aggressively? Improve school meals? Make healthy food cheaper? Encourage walking and cycling? Teach cooking properly again? Restrict portion sizes? Tax sugar harder? Or is government already interfering quite enough in what people put on their plates?There is also the awkward personal question of self-control. Christianity treats the body as something significant, not disposable. Food is good. Feasting is good. Enjoyment is good. But being dominated by appetite is something else.So this episode asks what Britain should do about obesity without shaming people, pretending weight is simple, or handing responsibility entirely to either government or the individual.Because clearly what we are doing now is not working.

There is a superhero shot that never was in Macon Blair's “Idiots,” but nobody is saving the day. The camera is planted low, looking up at Dave Franco just before a practical diarrhea rig erupts from his shorts and completely browns out the lens. Somewhere between the Cocoa Krispies used to give the mess extra texture and Franco's dainty bird tattoo singing “who farted,” the movie finds its beautifully stupid wavelength.Franco and O'Shea Jackson Jr. play two spectacularly unqualified men hired to transport a wealthy, troubled teenage influencer (Mason Thames) to rehab. The job goes bad quickly and keeps finding new depths. Written and directed by Blair, the filmmaker and actor behind “I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore” and “The Toxic Avenger,” the dark road comedy also features Peter Dinklage, Kiernan Shipka, Nicholas Braun, and Killer Mike. It is filthy, violent, oddly sweet, and packed with side characters who seem to have wandered in from their own movies.READ MORE: ‘The Shitheads' Review: O'Shea Jackson Jr. & Dave Franco Are Riotous Fun In A Chaotic Road Trip Movie [Sundance]The film took the long way to theaters. Blair first approached Franco nearly a decade ago, when both agreed the actor was too young for the part. Eight years later, Franco circled back, joined as a producer, and helped assemble the cast and financing. The movie finally premiered at Sundance as “The Shitheads,” where Independent Film Company acquired it before everyone had to confront the difficulty of marketing a movie with that title.

The threat landscape has become more interconnected, disruptive, and complex. Ransomware is now as much about extortion and data theft as it is about encryption. Supply chain events can create outages that ripple far beyond the initial target, and business interruption increasingly comes from third-party and cloud dependencies. How should CISOs prepare for these scenarios? Dan Bowden, Global Business CISO at Marsh, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how to connect cyber risk to the outcomes boards care about most: resilience, financial exposure, regulatory impact, and reputation. CISOs need to position cyber as an enterprise risk, not a technical risk, that can be measured, prioritized, and managed alongside other strategic risks. Dan will discuss the results of Marsh's Cyber Catalyst research and Global Cyber Claims Report.

Less, if anything, is revealed about the employees compromised at the start of the attack, and what makes those individuals valuable targets. New Zscaler ThreatLabz research examines this early stage of a real-world ransomware attack. ThreatLabz identified victims of a campaign associated with a ransomware group known for gaining initial access, stealing large amounts of corporate data, and selectively encrypting critical systems. The findings show who those victims were and how their roles and authority could help an attacker move deeper into an organization. This is part of ongoing ransomware research by ThreatLabz. The Zscaler ThreatLabz 2026 Ransomware Report, coming in the next two months, will include additional data on ransomware victims, the latest ransomware trends, targets, and tactics, and the risks enterprises should prepare for next.

Jerod Condit didn't wait until retirement to figure out what came next.He started seven years early.Now he's preparing to leave the military with a land clearing business that already runs jobs without him.After more than 22 years in the military, Jerod is closing in on retirement. But Ironwood Land Solution wasn't something he threw together at the last minute. He spent years building it on weekends, leave days, and whatever time he could find around his military career and family.What started with a dump trailer eventually grew into skid steer work, land clearing, mulching, employees, and a business capable of working Monday through Friday while Jerod is still at his day job.That creates an interesting challenge as retirement gets closer: What happens when the owner suddenly has more time to be in a business that learned how to operate without him?Jerod gets into the trust it took to turn employees loose on jobs, why he'll accept slower production while someone learns, and how more than two decades of military leadership shaped the way he trains and communicates with his crew.One of the biggest shifts came after he crushed an annual revenue goal. Instead of immediately chasing a bigger number, he focused on processes, organization, and making jobs run smoother. The following year brought in less gross revenue—and Jerod still considered it progress.Takeaways:✅ Start Before You Have To — Jerod started planning roughly seven years before military retirement, giving himself room to learn the land clearing business without needing it to immediately replace his paycheck.✅ Let Your Guys Learn Without Hovering — When Jerod couldn't be on a job, his crew had to make decisions. He gave them manageable projects, let them work through problems, and accepted that training sometimes meant a job took longer than he would have taken.✅ Hire Character, Then Teach the Machine — Jerod looks for people who show up, have the right attitude, and share the right values. He can teach someone to operate a skid steer or stump grinder. A bad attitude is a different problem.✅ A Better Year Doesn't Always Mean More Revenue — After hitting his financial goal, Jerod shifted his attention toward processes and smoother jobs. Gross revenue dropped the following year, but the business got better.✅ The Owner Doesn't Have to Be the Operator — As retirement approaches, Jerod is thinking carefully about where he fits into a crew that already has its own rhythm instead of assuming he needs to jump into a machine 40 hours a week.Why It Matters:If you're building a skid steer, excavation, or land clearing business around another full-time job, Jerod shows what can happen when you use those years to build the crew and systems you'll need later—not just buy more equipment.Links:➡️ Reach out to Jerod Condit — Ironwood Land Solutions: https://www.facebook.com/ironwoodlandsolutions➡️ Get Ryan's book “Outta The Weeds” on Amazon: ⁠⁠https://a.co/d/02o1DRKf⁠⁠➡️ Shop Attachments — Skid Steer Nation: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://skidsteernation.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠➡️ Create estimates, track jobs, and stay organized with Tulboxx: ⁠⁠https://www.tulboxx.com/⁠⁠➡️ Grow your business — Throttled Up Marketing: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.throttledupmarketing.com

Gauranga Das, a monk and spiritual teacher, delivers a grounding yet urgent message: we are all swimming upstream against the relentless current of Kali Yuga, where identity, climate, and society are rapidly deteriorating. He diagnoses our core pain—we anchor ourselves in eight shifting identities (body, partner, children, house, vehicles, wealth, social acceptance, and power) but forget our ninth, unchanging identity as the eternal soul (atma). Using the vivid metaphor of a car (material life) versus a GPS (spiritual direction), he warns that society obsesses over a smooth ride while ignoring the ultimate destination. He explains that sanskar—the daily choices we make—are critical, as the prominent thought at death determines the soul's next journey. Even Arjuna's flawless skills failed him; what truly matters is recognizing our swarupa (constitutional nature) beyond our swabhava and swadharma. To navigate this chaos, he prescribes prayer as "immunity against change" and warns against fueling mental inflammation by checking social media first thing in the morning. Despite Kali Yuga's worsening trajectory, he offers practical hope through the Govardhan Eco-Village, which integrates spirituality, sustainability (UNSDGs), and social impact as a blueprint for intentional communities.Gauranga Das urges us to stop obsessing over the car's interior and start trusting the GPS. When have you felt the seismic shift of a lost promotion, a broken relationship, or a career misaligned with your nature—and what would shift if, instead of running from that identity crisis, you used it to reconnect with your soul and surrender your morning, and your life, to a higher purpose?___

The threat landscape has become more interconnected, disruptive, and complex. Ransomware is now as much about extortion and data theft as it is about encryption. Supply chain events can create outages that ripple far beyond the initial target, and business interruption increasingly comes from third-party and cloud dependencies. How should CISOs prepare for these scenarios? Dan Bowden, Global Business CISO at Marsh, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how to connect cyber risk to the outcomes boards care about most: resilience, financial exposure, regulatory impact, and reputation. CISOs need to position cyber as an enterprise risk, not a technical risk, that can be measured, prioritized, and managed alongside other strategic risks. Dan will discuss the results of Marsh's Cyber Catalyst research and Global Cyber Claims Report.

Send us Fan MailIf you've listened to this podcast for any length of time, you've probably heard me say that running a successful medical practice is a lot like practicing good medicine. You don't make decisions based on a single symptom. You gather data, look for patterns, identify root causes, and then prescribe the appropriate treatment. The same is true when managing the financial health of a medical practice.Today, we're going to talk about two of the most important—and often misunderstood—key performance indicators in revenue cycle management: Gross Collections Percentage and Net Collections Percentage.If you don't know these numbers for your practice, or if you receive them every month but aren't quite sure what they mean, this episode is for you. More importantly, I want to shift your thinking. These aren't just accounting metrics. They're diagnostic tools. They're your practice's financial vital signs. When you understand what they're trying to tell you, they can help you identify problems long before they become financial crises.As we've discussed in previous episodes on key performance indicators and revenue cycle management, no single metric tells the whole story. Days in Accounts Receivable, denial rates, clean claim rates, aging reports, provider productivity, coding accuracy, charge lag, and patient collections all work together. Gross and Net Collections Percentages are two pieces of that larger puzzle, but they're incredibly valuable because they summarize how effectively your entire revenue cycle is functioning.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

To increase sales, profit, cash flow, and personal income, understand that money is always flowing in one direction or another. In a business, it needs to flow in from the customers. It needs to flow through to the employees and to the suppliers and to everybody who is providing you with services. And there needs to be something left over at the end to take home. And when you’re able to make those things happen consistently, everybody’s just better off. David: Hi, and welcome to the podcast. In today’s episode, cohost Jay McFarland, and I will be discussing how to increase sales, profit, and personal income. Welcome Jay. Jay: Yeah. Thank you, David. I’m so excited, as usual, to talk about these topics that we discuss every podcast. I think that people often get caught up, especially small business owners, in one of these aspects, instead of having balance between all of them. And I feel like the one that they think about the most is sales. We have to increase sales. And if you’re not focusing on profitability in that regard, you could be generating all kinds of sales, but you’re not controlling your costs. And so ultimately those sales aren’t helping you. David: Yeah. Been there, done that. I think anybody, if you’ve started your own business, you’ve probably found yourself in this situation and gross sales is usually a good place for people to start. They’re thinking in terms of top line. Okay. I need to bring in as much as possible, which is true. You got to be bringing it in. But if you’re not paying attention to the rest of it, as you indicated, you could be selling a lot of stuff and losing money every day. And unless you’re keeping track of that, you’re not going to know it. I remember in the early days of my promotional products business, I would get together with my accountant once every 90 days. At the end of every quarter, actually the beginning of the following quarter, we would review the numbers for the previous quarter. And at that point, it’s too late to do anything about it. You feel like things are going well because you know, you’re selling stuff, but then you look at the expenses, the cost of goods, the cost of people, all your internal costs, your overhead costs. And you find out that you’re not making money on it. And 90 days later is too late. So once we got that in focus and we started doing it every month, reviewing what happened last month, where are our expenses too high and where are our gross sales too low? And which customers take up too much time and don’t generate enough revenue? Once we’re able to focus on the things that actually allow you to operate a profitable business, things got a lot better, a lot more quickly. And when we think in terms of these three things, how to increase sales, profit, and personal income, it’s almost like you’re starting here with the sales and then that generates whatever profit you have. And then after you’ve spent money on overhead and things, then you have some money to pay yourself, get some personal income going. But different businesses operate different ways. There are some business owners who are so focused on what am I going to bring in for myself that they may cut costs. They may short change people in terms of what they’re delivering in terms of product. They may choose less quality products. And so depending on where people’s focus is, determines where they’re going to be successful among those three things. Jay: Yeah. And I think you need balance. I mean, they’re all important. And so as you talked about looking at things monthly, I think having systems to identify and track each of these areas and have proper goals and benchmarks and reporting systems so that you can catch issues quickly. And pivot quickly is the only way you’re going to find balance in the force with these three things. David: Yeah, I agree. And I’ve operated businesses that had overhead that was too high. And that’s really hard. Because you feel like you’re trying to do everything right. And you’re trying to take care of the business and you’re trying to take care of your employees and you’re trying to take care of your customers. And if you don’t have the metrics right, it’s going to be pretty darn close to impossible to do that. And so finding the balance between the quality of product, which has to be high, the customer service, which has to be great. And the quality of client you’re interacting with, which also has to be great. When you get those three things lined up, you’re more likely to be successful, but if you’re not quite connected with some of those things, it’s a really uphill slog. Jay: Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. And we’ve kind of mentioned this in some other podcasts, but I see businesses when they need to increase their profitability. Their default is we need to increase sales or revenue. And I think that can be misguided. Because in order to make a dollar in profit, you may need to increase sales by $10. But if you focus on reducing cost, like for example, in a restaurant, if you can reduce your food cost by 1%, that immediately goes to the bottom line and increases profitability. So I find that the much faster route to profit than just to increase sales. And I don’t know that every business person understands that. David: Right. And I think it’s probably because there is a limit to how much you can cut. But theoretically, there’s not a limit in terms of how much you can generate. Now, obviously there is. If it’s a restaurant, you’ve got a certain number of seats or whatever. In a promotional products business, there’s a certain number of customers that you can visit with. Whatever your business is, there are going to be limits on the upper end. But most businesses never see that. They never get to the point where it’s like, I’m totally overwhelmed. I’m extremely profitable. I’m making a lot of money and I’m capped out. Because when you’re doing things well, when you’re doing things right, you’re generating the revenue, you’re generating the profit, which means you can hire additional people. You can add the staff, you can get the help and you can still continue to make money. But when you’re not in that situation, when you’re just sort of barely eking things out, and you’re saying, “okay, I need to increase sales. I need to generate more.” Yeah, you probably do. But as you indicated, if you are able to cut some of your overhead costs by even just a small amount, all of that drops, whereas gross sales don’t drop. Gross sales do not drop directly to your bottom line. And I can’t tell you how many people I’ve worked with who forget that. And when they think about gross sales, when they focus on gross sales, when they talk about gross sales, they’re like, “oh yeah, we’re generating all of this.” It doesn’t matter if you don’t get to drop it and keep some of it and pay everybody who needs to be paid. Jay: Yeah, absolutely. And one of the things is knowing what your cost should be. What is the ideal cost that you’re shooting for? Because you’re right. You can’t continue to reduce costs. There is a line. There’s a threshold. My experience, like in the restaurant business, we had something called a theoretical food cost versus our actual food cost. The theoretical was if we had no waste, if we had no theft, if we had no shrinkage, if we ran perfectly, what would our food cost be? And then we compared that to our actual food cost. And so the goal was constantly trying to close the gap between those. And if you’re not an industry where there’s no shrinkage or things like that, then that’s not going to be as easy. But this was a great system for us to always be trying to achieve, to close that gap between the theoretical and the actual. David: Yeah, there are also a lot of business people who, when they start talking about this or thinking about this, it feels cold. “Well, I don’t like thinking about the numbers. I want to make sure I’m taking care of my people” and all that sort of thing, which is great. You do want to take care of your people. But the only way you can take care of your people is by remaining in business. Cause if you don’t remain in business, you can’t take care of anyone anymore. Can’t take care of your customers. You can’t take care of your employees. You can’t take care of yourself or your family. So, paying attention to this and recognizing that, yeah, this is a real thing and it’s not just driving gross sales is absolutely critical. I’ve operated businesses that generated huge gross sales, but they didn’t have the profitability they needed. I’ve operated businesses that didn’t generate a huge gross amount of money, but they had really good margins. And that works well too. And I’ve also operated businesses that generated a lot of sales and had a lot of profit. That’s my favorite. That’s probably most people’s favorite. That’s what you want to stick with. But if you recognize that that’s the goal and you’re taking the actions necessary to make it happen, then you’re going to be in a much better position. Jay: Yeah, totally. And then, you know, something like a pandemic can come along and your sales drop and now you’ve got to pivot dramatically to figure out how to increase sales and stay open. And so it’s not like you can assume that the status quo is going to be the way it always is. You’ve got to be prepared to identify issues quickly and pivot quickly. David: Yeah, you should probably assume that the status quo is never going to be the status quo. Because in life and in business, things are constantly changing. And some people were able to pivot extremely well and extremely effectively during the epidemic. And some people were just like, “I don’t know what to do.” And we’ve, we see the results of that. There are a lot of businesses that are no longer around because they couldn’t do it over. Even over the past six months. I’ve still seen a lot of that fallout happening, where there’s still businesses that are sort of merging with others or they’re being acquired, or people are retiring earlier than they would’ve otherwise because they just couldn’t figure out how to do it. And I think if you recognize that there are these three primary things, what am I making from it is the third part of it because you’re not making anything if you’re not able to increase sales and if you’re not generating profit, but looking at those three things and saying, okay, where do I need to focus my attention? Do I need to focus on how to increase sales? Do I need to focus it on trying to reduce my costs without reducing the quality of the product and the service that I’m delivering. I mean, if you cut food costs by getting cheaper, less tasty ingredients, then you can save some money there it’ll drop right to the bottom line. But then your gross sales are probably going to drop too. So it’s this constant balance. It’s this constant process of looking at, where am I, where am I trying to be? And what do I need to do to get there? Jay: Yeah, it feels complicated, but I think if you have good systems, if you have key performance indicators, ways to easily capture and process this information, I think that’s critical. You know, In my experience, a lot of restaurant operators don’t even know what their theoretical food costs should be. They don’t even know what a plate of food is supposed to cost. All they know is what their sales are and what they’re spending. And that’s it. So whatever your industry is, knowing what those ideal goals are, and then having systems to identify early issues, I think it’s the only way you’re going to find balance. Otherwise it’s an emotional process instead of a tactical process. David: Right. And knowing the how is extremely important. I know I need to increase sales and bring in more customers. How do I do it? I know I need to cut my costs. How do I do it without impacting quality? I know that I need to be able to increase my personal income, to be able to maintain the standard of life that’s going to allow me to want to continue in the business. I mean, I talk to people. Particularly in the last six months where they’re just tired of doing it. They don’t feel like what they’re generating for themselves is worth it. Because they’re doing all this work and they feel like it’s benefiting their suppliers. They feel like it’s benefiting their coworkers and it’s not dripping down to them. You know, they’re paying everybody else and there’s very little left. And so recognizing that in order to maintain a healthy business, it’s got to be healthy for everybody. It’s got to be healthy for the business owner, for the employees, for the clients, and not always necessarily in that order. Jay: Yeah, such a great point. I’ve seen this happen so many times. People start a business because it’s their passion. David: Mm-hmm, Jay: It’s a product that helps people or they love to cook for people or whatever it is. And then as things tighten up, it starts to be very stressful and it starts to feel like a job, not like your own business and you become a servant to that business. And that’s a tough place to be. So,, figuring out how to make it a love instead of a job, I think if you can balance these three things, you’re probably going to be able to do that more effectively. David: Yeah. Trickle down economics was actually the term I was struggling to think of before, ties to the idea of cash flow. In other words, money’s always flowing, it’s flowing in one, direction or another. And in a business, it needs to flow in from the customers. It needs to flow through to the employees and to the suppliers and to everybody who is providing you with services. And there needs to be something left over at the end to take home. And when you’re able to make those things happen consistently, everybody’s just better off. And I think a lot of it does come down to mindset too. If we recognize that our goal is to service our customers, whether it’s the people coming into a restaurant or the business owners, we work with, whoever it is, if we’re able to provide them a good quality product, a good quality service at a reasonable price that is profitable enough to us, that we can pay our people and pay our suppliers and pay ourselves. Then that’s a real win. Jay: Yeah, I love that you brought up cash flow and you might want to make it sales, profit, cash flow and personal income. It’s that important. David: Yeah. Jay: I worked for a gentleman who had a great business. I mean, he was making money hand over fist. But he wasn’t getting paid from his clients for three to six months. And so making payroll, being able to cover all your expenses becomes very difficult if you don’t have the money. You know, you can have the sales, but you don’t have the money. That can be a very difficult situation. And so cash flow is equally as important as these other things we’ve talked about. David: very true. So it’s going to flow from sales to cash flow to profits, eventually, when you get the cash flow in, and then eventually to personal income. So it does flow. That’s the point. And sometimes it trickles and sometimes it floods, and our goal is to try to get it to move at a steady enough pace that everybody gets paid. Jay: Yeah, absolutely. How can people find out more?

Apparently one Friday show wasn't chaotic enough, so this episode brings together sports-radio confusion, Banana Ball insanity, celebrity disasters, '90s music nostalgia, Taylor Swift fandom, and an emotional goodbye that briefly forces The Rizzuto Show to experience genuine human feelings. Gross. The crew is coming off its takeover of The Fast Lane, where St. Louis sports-radio listeners turned on their radios expecting serious sports analysis and instead found… us. Confused texts start rolling in, Moon commits the apparently unforgivable crime of discussing soccer, and everyone discovers that sports-talk fans approach radio hosts with roughly the same restraint they bring to yelling at referees.From there, we head to Busch Stadium for the Savannah Bananas and the wonderfully ridiculous world of Banana Ball. No bunting. Batters can steal first. Ball four turns into a sprint. Fans can record an out by catching a foul ball. There's a Golden Batter. There are bizarre tiebreakers. Basically, somebody looked at baseball and asked, “What if this moved faster and people actually had fun?”That naturally sends us down the Steve Bartman rabbit hole, where we discover the infamous baseball was eventually purchased, publicly blown up and—because humanity had apparently not done enough—its essence was incorporated into pasta sauce. Sports fans remain completely normal.We also get into Rizz's upcoming first trip to Buc-ee's, the Gathering of the Juggalos, a drug bust involving a man with the incredibly discreet nickname Blunt Man, speeding, road rage and those tiny towns where the speed limit suddenly drops just in time for a police officer to welcome you personally.Then nostalgia attacks.A forgotten Rollins Band song sends Rizz straight back to the '90s, MTV and Beavis and Butt-Head, leading to an appreciation of Henry Rollins as perhaps the only man capable of delivering inspirational wisdom while looking permanently furious about it. Rafe even discovers the perfect soundtrack for the closet he apparently cries in.Once Crap on Celebrities gets rolling, things become significantly more expensive and legally complicated. Foo Fighters are joining AC/DC for a huge St. Louis show, which is incredible news right up until everyone remembers they'll eventually have to escape the parking lot. The crew also digs into the Michael Jackson biopic sequel, developments surrounding the Tupac murder case and reported Diddy allegations, questions surrounding changes to Biggie's mother's will, and Dane Cook revisiting the brutal discovery that his own brother embezzled millions from him.Nothing says family like alleged financial crimes.There's also God of War casting drama involving Dave Bautista, a public service announcement about a movie Moon thinks is absolute garbage, and a rundown of famous actors who reportedly couldn't stand each other while filming some of Hollywood's most beloved romances. Turns out all that incredible on-screen chemistry might occasionally just be two attractive people professionally suppressing rage.And then Courtney Diamond — aka Eight Ball — comes home.The former Rizzuto Show intern joins the crew ahead of the final TaylorMade tribute to Taylor Swift show, closing a chapter that grew into 45 performances across 28 cities. Courtney talks about knowing when it was time to end TaylorMade, remembering the nerves surrounding the first show and making sure the project went out while everyone involved still loved what they were doing.Things get dangerously sincere when Courtney reflects on her time working with the show and tells Rizz that one of the lessons she carried with her was watching him treat people well and thank her for her work every day as an intern.Don't worry. Everyone immediately starts making jokes before Rizz can develop an emotion.Courtney also explains how a die-hard Def Leppard and '80s hair-metal fan became a massive Taylor Swift fan, why Swift's songwriting won her over and where even a dedicated Swiftie draws the line when it comes to merch drops, album variants and the Taylor Swift business machine.Then we enter the terrifying world of parasocial fandom.The crew debates fans driving 12 hours just to stand outside a celebrity wedding, Courtney admits to incorporating some Def Leppard sightseeing into her honeymoon, and even one of the biggest Swifties we know arrives at an important conclusion:Some Swifties need to chill.Finally, Courtney looks ahead to the emotional final TaylorMade performance and talks about what it feels like to deliberately close something she's spent years building. She doesn't know exactly what comes next—and for once, nobody needs to turn that into a five-year plan.It's sports, weird news, celebrity gossip, music memories, St. Louis chaos, Taylor Swift, Juggalos, Banana Ball, family betrayals, emotional farewells and enough wildly unnecessary side conversations to remind everyone why The Rizzuto Show remains your daily comedy destination.Basically, we laughed, we learned, we almost had feelings, and somewhere along the way Blunt Man got arrested.Another productive day.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.St. Louis City considers demolition of fire-damaged church, home to non-profit's skate parkFour arrested on drug charges tied to Gathering of the Juggalos near Macks CreekMargaret Qualley Just Wore Those Controversial Chanel Shoes for The Dog Stars PremiereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

From Gross to Subtle: The Journey of Ashtanga Yoga Practice In this episode, Kino MacGregor and Tim Feldmann explore the two ends of the yoga spectrum: the gross and the subtle, the dynamic and the still, the effortful and the refined. Ashtanga Yoga asks us to inhabit both worlds, jumping through, sweating, moving the body with strong discipline, and then turning inward, softening into breath, subtle sensation, and the quietude of mind. Drawing from Sanskrit roots and classical teachings, Kino and Tim explain how sthūla, gross or dense practice, and sūkṣma, subtle or refined practice, are not opposites but complementary gateways into yoga. They discuss how the foundational tools of the practice, āsana, prāṇāyāma, and dṛṣṭi, can carry practitioners from surface-level sensation toward deeper layers of awareness. The conversation unfolds around Patañjali's timeless definition of yoga, yogaś citta-vṛtti-nirodhaḥ, the stilling of the mind's movements. Kino and Tim share stories, personal reflections, and practical lessons on balancing abhyāsa, steady practice, with vairāgya, letting go. Along the way, they remind us that contentment, santoṣa, is not resignation but a doorway into clarity, and that every choice plants seeds in the soil of karma. Whether through strong postures, subtle meditation, or the quiet discipline of daily practice, this talk invites us to see yoga as both gross and subtle, both active and still, always guiding us toward the inner horizon of awareness. Practice with Kino, Tim, and our global community on Omstars. Explore thousands of yoga classes, in-depth courses, live practices, meditation, prāṇāyāma, and more at Omstars.com.

Send us Fan MailBefore you build a business case for anything, a new hire, a second location, a new service line, three numbers have to be right. Payer mix. Net collection rate. AR days. Most owners have all three. Almost nobody has calculated them correctly in the last two years. This episode is how to fix that, in about twenty minutes, using your own system.  [Payer mix] The payer mix on your billing dashboard is almost always built on charges, meaning what you billed. What you need is payer mix by collections, meaning what you actually got paid. Those two numbers are often meaningfully different. Pull payments received by payer over the last 12 months, divide each payer by total net collections, and that percentage is your real mix. Twelve months and not three, because open enrollment shifts and Medicaid redeterminations distort any shorter window.  [Net collection rate] Gross collection rate compares you to your billed charges, a number nobody ever pays. Net collection rate compares what you collected to what you were contractually owed. Net collections divided by gross charges minus contractual adjustments. Discretionary write-offs, bad debt and charity, do not belong in that adjustment figure, because including them overstates the rate. Most well-run practices land between 95% and 98%. Under 90% is a red flag. Above 99% usually means contractual adjustments are being under-written.  [AR days] AR balance divided by average daily charges over the last 90 days. Lower is generally better, but the blended number hides the story. Split insurance from patient, then look payer by payer. Under 35 days total is healthy. Medicare should sit at 20 to 28. Medicaid at 35 to 60. Patient AR above 40 days means balances are not being collected at the point of service. Any payer trending up for three consecutive months is worth a conversation.  [Why this matters for a business plan] A 10% shift toward Medicaid lowers your blended rate per visit by $8 to $15 depending on specialty. In a 30,000-visit-per-year practice that is $240,000 to $450,000 of annual revenue difference, and it is completely invisible if you are using charge-based payer mix. A practice modeling at 96% when the verified rate is 92% overstates revenue by four cents on every dollar. On $300,000 a month that is $12,000 a month that does not exist. And a plan built on 30-day AR while the practice actually runs at 52 days has a cash flow gap in the first 60 to 90 days that the plan never accounts for. That gap shows up as a cash crisis, not a revenue problem.  [Three actions this week] Pull payer mix by collections: 12 months, by payer, as a percentage of net payments Pull your net collection rate: net collections divided by gross charges minus contractual adjustments, 12 months, run 90 days in arrears Pull AR days for your top four payers, insurance and patient separately, with a 3-month trend direction on each If you cannot pull any of these cleanly from your system, that is the first thing to fix, not the business plan. A plan built on numbers you cannot verify is not a plan. It is a guess with formatting. And if you can pull them and the numbers surprise you, that surprise is worth more than any plan you would have built without looking. Take them to your accountant and your billing manager before you build anything else.  [Episode breakdown] 00:00  The three numbers 00:40  Why this matters before you build anything 02:30  Payer mix: what it actually is 05:10  The calculation that matters 06:40  Why 12 months and not 3 or 6 08:20  Net collection rate: the formula 11:00  How to pull it correctly 13:10  What a healthy number looks like 15:00  The number most practices are using is not this 17:00  AR days: insurance versus patient 19:20  What AR days does to a cash flow plan 21:30  What to do before you build anything 23:00  Next week on EP207Practice Financial Health Dashboard for Physicians The workbook version of this episode.

Millionen NSDAP-Akten sind seit einem halben Jahr frei zugänglich. Wer war in Hitlers Partei und was verraten die Akten? Historiker Raphael Gross zieht Bilanz: «Manchmal ist die Enttäuschung gross, wenn sich eine vermutete NS-Vergangenheit nicht bestätigen lässt.» Millionen Datensätze zu ehemaligen NSDAP-Mitgliedern sind seit einem halben Jahr mit wenigen Klicks abrufbar über das US-Nationalarchiv. Was früher aufwendige Archivarbeit war, geht heute bequem von zu Hause aus. Das sorgt für grosses Interesse, wirft aber auch Fragen auf. Historiker Raphael Gross ordnet diese neue Transparenz ein. Der Zürcher ist Präsident des Deutschen Historischen Museums in Berlin. Wie erfolgreich ist das Tool? Was ist der Erkenntnisgewinn? Und wie steht dieser Recherche-Boom im Zusammenhang mit aktuellen politischen Entwicklungen? Raphael Gross ist zu Gast bei David Karasek.

Ah, Friday. The best day of the work week. And I'm finally feeling a bit better. Definitely NOT fully recovered, but I am much improved over yesterday & Wednesday. In the news this morning, the FBI raided the home of former US Representative Eric Swalwell, the creepy masked man in Philly has been identified…but not caught yet, the boat captain in NY who was piloting the boat that capsized & killed a mother and her baby has been arrested by ICE agents, an updated on the Karmelo Anthony case, a bunch of gold was found on a job site in Belgium, a Wisconsin man was looking for some "hypnotists" while he was holding another man hostage at a Meijer grocery store, and another scientist who worked on the Pentagon's UFO program claims to have seen FOUR different alien species! In sports, the Brewers beat the Mariners again yesterday to take two out of three from Seattle, a recap of last night's NFL action along with a look at the rest of this weekend's schedule for week 2 of the preseason, the Cowboys & Saints got fined by the league for fights at joint practices earlier this week, James Harden signs a new deal with the Cavs, the Lakers sale is getting a bit messy, and the NHL is playing a couple of regular season games in Germany this upcoming season. We talked about what's on TV & streaming this weekend along with what's new in theaters. Plus, some new music getting released today…a new milestone for "The Odyssey"…and the Foo Fighters will be opening up for AC/DC in St. Louis on September 8th! Mattel just announced it's first ever "UNO Championship" tournament where you could win $50,000!!! A dog named Milo who was missing for 72 days just won the 18th Annual "Hambone" award. A dude who was stuck in an underwater cave for 15 days gets rescued. And a cool story about a group of high-school dudes from Idaho who spent their summer helping to clean up the Boise river. According to a recent survey about pet food, 16% of people would try their dog's food "out of sheer curiosity". Gross. I'd rather eat a delicious sammich. Speaking of sandwiches, another recent look at Google Trends, social media, and A.I. data found out what the favorite sandwich is in every state. No surprise for WI. Elsewhere in sports, a couple of members of the Tennessee University cycling team are killed when they're hit by a car, a girl comes out of the stands and onto the field during a recent high school football game to tackle a player, and check out this monster bear claw pretzel that's available at Soldier Field again this season. If you make coffee at home, you might want to avoid these four "mistakes". Doc joined us just after 8am to talk racing thanks to County Materials in Holmen & Eau Claire. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a massive bear that got locked into a family's vehicle in Tennessee, a guy named "Bluntman" who got arrested for planning to distribute drugs at the Gathering of the Juggalos, a bullfighter in Spain who got a horn right in the apple bag, a pilot who tested positive for weed, and a #FloridaWoman who tried to hide a bunch of money in her vagina.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says the U.S. can 'grow' its way out of a $40 trillion national debt, a number that was reached this week; Secretary Bessent also says he will hold a news conference Monday to outline new sanctions against Iran.

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds and Chris Fetters - had things to say about day 11 of Washington's fall camp practice, one that looked like it was going to be a carbon copy of Tuesday's workout on the east field, but then the team ran into Husky Stadium and that's when things got interesting.The music got cranked, they inserted a ton of crowd noise as well, and it became a Tylenol Special. If it was done to induce headaches for all the players, it worked.The competitive periods were geared a little bit toward the offense in terms of where they started their drives on the field and also due to the fact that they were playing at 'thud' tempo, meaning just short of full speed without contact taking ballcarriers to the ground.Before talking about the offensive players that stood out, Kim and Chris gave their thoughts on Washington's newest roster inclusion, former placekicker Grady Gross. The same Colorado-based court decision that allowed DL Ta'ita'i Uiagalelei to return to Montlake also gave Gross an opportunity to come back and kick for the Purple and Gold.But what does that mean for Tyler Robles? What does it mean in terms of who will kick the ball off now for the Huskies?After that, it was all about the final competitive team periods, which went roughly 80 plays. Who stood out, especially at receiver? Who participated that hadn't up to that point? Who stayed out of the periods?The guys talk about all of those things, and more. They also preview the upcoming practices and which ones the fans should see ahead of Saturday night's Mock Game inside Husky Stadium.

What happens when a museum turns the world's grossest sights into a scientific experiment? In this episode about disgust, evolution, and the body's built-in defense systems, Mindy and Guy Raz embark on a hilariously revolting adventure through "Disgustival," a bizarre art exhibition inspired by real scientific research! Along the way, you'll learn why the sight of parasites can make your skin itch, why disgusting things can make you feel like you're going to throw up, and how these powerful reactions may have evolved to protect humans from dangerous pathogens and creepy-crawly parasites. From moldy bread and dirty earwax to fleas, ticks, and maggots, this episode is packed with stomach-churning surprises, laugh-out-loud hijinks, fascinating science, and one very important question: Why does your body get so grossed out by gross stuff?Why can simply seeing a picture of parasites make your skin feel itchy? Why does the sight of something revolting make you want to barf? And could these reactions actually be your body's ancient bodyguards, warning you to stay away from things that could make you sick? Mindy and Guy discover how evolution may have shaped these powerful responses over millions of years—and why scientists are still investigating whether people around the world share the same reactions to the grossest things imaginable!This episode is a hilarious journey into the science of disgust. Along the way, kids and families will discover how scientists use experiments to understand human behavior, how our bodies respond to potential threats, and why sometimes feeling totally grossed out can actually be a very good thing. This is the Who, What, When, Where, Why, How, and Wow of nausea, itching, parasites, pathogens, and the amazing science of being disgusted!✨ Don't miss the chance to explore even further with Wow in the World:Grownups can visit tinkercast.com/join-twaaw to join the World Organization of Wowzers (WOW) and unlock exclusive activities, birthday cards, quarterly mailings, first dibs at events, and a welcome kit with an autographed photo of Mindy & Guy Raz!
