My guest this week is Rob Miller, a trial attorney with more than three decades of experience, the founder of Miller Copeland, and most importantly, a dear friend. Over the course of his career he's handled litigation in a variety of areas including, personal injury, construction, transportation, oil and gas, products liability, and civil rights cases.And because it's fun to brag on your friends, Rob and his team have tried over 125 cases to verdict, and in the process he's been awarded the Martindale-Hubbell AV Preeminent rating in both Legal Ability and Ethical Standards, and been named a Texas Legal Leader by the Dallas Morning News. For this week's conversation, he and I discuss what it felt like landing in the frying pan and the fire at the same time, and how what felt like chaos turned out to be the best training we could have gotten. We also talk about the joy that comes with passing the torch to the next generation and why the most effective way to build a bridge across the generational divide is to make it a group project.We also swap some war stories and plenty of laughter, and I can't thank him enough for sitting down and catching up on his journey to becoming a lawyer of impact.

We all know that Rome wasn't built in a day, but I think it's worth asking why ‘Rome', of all the great cities of antiquity, was chosen as the subject of idiom.Now, setting aside historical-bias, my best guess for this being the case is that the level of infrastructure at the time of the phrase's coining (1190) was well beyond anything available or imaginable. Afterall, the “Dark Ages” earned their moniker because so much of the knowledge that “built Rome” had been lost to time, leaving people ‘in the dark' when it came to using systems that had been put in place for centuries. And while I've strayed as far into the territory of amateur historian as I feel comfortable, the reason for this though was something my guest said in his latest book: “Until you have systems in place, you don't have a business, you just have a job”.If Rome wasn't connected by all the systems they'd put in place, they'd have had a village, not a City.My guest this week is Brian Glass.

According to the National Association of Legal Professions, when I graduated from Law School in 1988 only 2.7% of graduating attorneys made the choice to go solo.Looking at those same numbers, it's easy to track the strength of the economy with the number of new attorneys going solo increasing during economic downturns.But now that so much of the work we do can be done virtually, what used to be one of the largest challenges for any attorney deciding to hang out their own shingle – finding physical office space – has all but been eliminated. As my guest today points out, with the ability to work remotely no longer in question, the stigma of being what was once called “post-office attorney” is fading.Nikita Lamar is an attorney specializing in Family Law, Trademarks, and Probate & Estate Planning. After graduating from Law School in the wake of the Great Recession, Nikita would found The Lamar Legal Group and, as she herself has written, her commitment to preserving what clients have worked tirelessly to build is the cornerstone of her practice. We talk about her unlikely journey to law school, practical and philosophical tips for attorneys thinking of starting their own practice, and how vulnerability and empathy can coexist with zealousness.

A recent court decision dismissing a high-profile influencer lawsuit highlights the critical role that procedural rules can play in advertising and endorsement disputes. While the case didn't move forward on the merits, it still offers important lessons on how courts may handle claims involving influencer marketing practices. For legal, compliance, and marketing teams, the takeaway is clear: even when procedural issues decide the outcome, the underlying risks tied to endorsements, disclosures, and consumer trust remain front and center.

With some very rare exceptions, all of us have to have a ‘first job'. This also means we all remember the nervousness that comes with that first day. First month. Even the first year. While it hopefully wanes over time, those feelings of general uncertainty combined with a vague sense of having to prove one's self can easily lead to imposter-syndrome and burnout. But you throw a bad leader into the mix, and – as my guest today had to experience – you have a recipe for disaster. Early in her legal career, a then-boss told her she'd never be a trial attorney. No qualifications. No ‘constructive' criticism. Just a blunt, “you're too meek.”Now as Managing Partner at Duane Morris's L.A. offices, Cyndie Chang often handles litigation involving mergers & acquisitions, asset or stock sales, frauds, and securities, all while ensuring her team has the resources to thrive. Cyndie and I talk about her journey into big-law, and how the resources and the community they provide helped her to feel not just empowered, but included. We also discuss the dangers of looking at your people as commodities and not investments, and why new lawyers need to consider WHERE they want to practice just as much as WHAT they want to focus their practice on.

Regardless, Blue Prince (Dogubomb, 2025) is the latest hit in a type of knowledge-is-power game that is really appealing to certain types of gamers. The only difference is that we seem to fully know the full depths of previous games like Animal Well, Outer Wilds, Fez, Tunic, etc....but nobody knows how deep Blue Prince goes.

Summer in 2025 is here - and after one of the sunniest and driest Springs on record, we enter the long days and sultry nights with the garden looking glorious but always looking to the horizon for a little bit of rain to keep things looking green and lush. Herbaceous borders are set to maximum colour, vegetable beds seem to multiply in growth weekly and the gardeners tan is ever present. So enjoy the long summer days, take some time to appreciate time in your garden and join the Talking Heads pair as they continue to look after the spaces they are in charge of, as well as enjoying their gardens at home.How has the years warm and dry weather effected the productivity of our plots - well Lucy went to find out when she visited the Fothergills Trial Ground open day where they grow 1500 varieties of flowers, veg and fruit to show case their seed varieties. The picture is obviously mixed with some crops enjoying the temperatures while others struggling to get going, a similar picture back home at our gardens.

As my producer wrote in the margins of this week's material, the phrase ‘Collaborative Divorce' can seem, on its face, like an oxymoron. After all, whether it's a marriage, partnership, or friendship, the act of separating one's self from another person usually stems from an inability to collaborate in the first place. But over the last four decades, Dr. Honey Sheff has designed many of the systems to help shepherd families through the separation process in a way that serves everyone. After working the Family Courts for 30 years, she decided there had to be a better way to help families separate while still honoring the wishes of everyone involved. Among her many professional achievements, Dr. Sheff is responsible for helping create the parenting plan summary form that is now used statewide by mental health professionals and attorneys with divorcing couples. She and Mike discuss why more and more attorneys are choosing A.D.R. to help couples separate with civility, why she believes the worst place for any family is inside a courtroom, and why boundaries are not only necessary to protect your emotional wellbeing, but vital in preserving your ability to serve your clients.____________________________SHOWNOTES:Dr. Sheff on LinkedIn
Starbucks was having a students going home issue and needed to keep selling coffee, so they copied and perfected as Seattle treat. Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not-so-secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom-and-pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I'm Stephen's sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today's episode, a word from our sponsor, which is, well, it's us. But we're highlighting ads we've written and produced for our clients, so here's one of those. [Maven Roofing Ad] Dave Young: Welcome back to the Empire Builders Podcast. I'm Dave Young alongside Stephen Semple. And man, this topic takes me back. I feel like in the early days of the Empire Builders Podcast, we talked a lot about coffee and coffee products. Stephen Semple: We did. We did. Dave Young: And today, you told me we're going to talk about Frappuccino. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: And my big question is is that a brand? Stephen Semple: No, it's a name. It's a product name. And it's actually owned by Starbucks. And yep, Starbucks, I looked this up, Dave, guess what episode Starbucks was? Guess how far back we got to go? Dave Young: I don't know, single digits? Stephen Semple: Yes, episode five. It's like four years ago we talked about Starbucks. Dave Young: And they own the word Frappuccino? Stephen Semple: They own the word Frappuccino. No one else can use the name. They didn't create it. And it's funny, when I learned this, I went, "No, no, no." Because Tim Hortons and things like that, they use Frappuccino. And then I noticed they don't. It's called things like frozen caps or frozen cappuccinos. No one actually uses the name Frappuccino, even though in my mind they did. Dave Young: I feel stupid. You don't hear why? Stephen Semple: Why is that? Dave Young: It's a portmanteau of frozen and cappuccino. I never figured that out before. Stephen Semple: Well, it's actually not quite that. Dave Young: Isn't it? Okay. Stephen Semple: No, it's going to be something a little bit more interesting. You're close, but it's a little bit more interesting than that. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: So it's kind of an interesting story, and it's a huge category in Starbucks. And in fact, when the idea was first introduced to Howard Schultz, he hated it. He was like, "No, we're not doing this. I'm a coffee purist. We're not doing this frozen drink thing with the star and all this other crap." But our story actually starts with the relocation of George Howell from Berkeley to Boston in the early-1970s. Because George is a real coffee nerd. I mean real coffee nerd. There's stories of George pulling into a diner and wanting to have a coffee and smelling the burnt coffee in the diner. And basically, he'll ask for a pot of hot water and he'll pull out his beans, pull out a coffee grinder, and his French press, and to start to make coffee. And people would gather around, like, "What the hell are you doing?" Dave Young: To show them how to make coffee. Stephen Semple: Yeah, exactly. Exactly. So it's the 1970s, and there's not much of a coffee culture yet in United States. But there was in Berkeley, which he just left. And Berkeley was kind of ground zero for the coffee culture in the United States. Dave Young: I see what you did there. Grounds, zero. Stephen Semple: I didn't even think about that. And he's moving to Boston. Now, ironically, Boston is kind of the starting point for coffee consumption in the United States, but it's really still not good coffee. George wanders the Boston area visiting literally every cafe and ordering coffee, and it's terrible. He tries all of them, and he's continually disappointed. And George not only misses coffee, but the culture of coffee,

Vince is an active member of PGMS and advocate for more grounds managers and crews to participate in industry associations.
The Caving Grounds excavates the rubble of Negaunee, a small town in Upper Michigan hollowed by a century of mining. Sponsored by Moravian Sons Distillery, Doc Chavent and Author Lauren Perssons The extraction of hematite caused underground collapses and sinkholes; undermined neighborhoods were deemed unstable; homes, churches and even cemeteries were moved, and dangerous areas fenced. Thankfully, a guide will emerge: Rusty. "The 'pick and hammer' was historically used in cartography to indicate the location of a mine. It emerges from my love of maps, which I reference in several of the poems, and the sheer abundance of those mine symbols on old UP Michigan maps: hundreds of historic mines in the Marquette Iron Range alone," Heideman said about the symbol on the cover.

638. Part 1 of our interview with Lori Peek about her book, The Continuing Storm, which she wrote with Kai Erikson. More than fifteen years later, Hurricane Katrina maintains a strong grip on the American imagination. The reason is not simply that Katrina was an event of enormous scale. But, quite apart from its lethality and destructiveness, Katrina retains a place in living memory because it is one of the most telling disasters in our recent national experience, revealing important truths about our society and ourselves. The Continuing Storm reflects upon what we have learned about Katrina and about America. Kai Erikson and Lori Peek expand our view of the disaster by assessing its ongoing impact on individual lives and across the wide-ranging geographies where displaced New Orleanians landed after the storm. Such an expanded view, the authors argue, is critical for understanding the human costs of catastrophe across time and space. Concluding with a broader examination of disasters in the years since Katrina—including COVID-19— The Continuing Storm is a sobering meditation on the duration of a catastrophe that continues to exact steep costs in human suffering.

Admission/Entrance Fees $4 per person Free for senior citizens (62 and older) Free for children 3 and under Originally opened as the College of Louisiana in 1826, the school occupied an old courthouse and other buildings in the town of Jackson. The college steadily grew and two dormitories were built on new property in 1832 and 1837. The West Wing, the latter of these two buildings, remains today. After less than 20 years, the College of Louisiana closed because of declining enrollment. Suffering similar problems was the Methodist/Episcopal-operated Centenary College at Brandon Springs, Mississippi (established in 1839). Centenary then moved to the vacant campus of the College of Louisiana. Since the all-male student bodies of the two institutions were effectively combined, the school succeeded with the name Centenary College of Louisiana now owned and operated by the Methodist/Episcopal Church South.

We talk plenty on this program about how frustrating it can be to try and function under poor leadership. Even if the team is strong, if they don't know (or worse, understand) their direction, then it will always be an uphill battle. But my guest this week faced a situation I don't know if we've ever covered on the show:What do you do when the Leader you THOUGHT you wanted to be collides with who you want to be as a Person?After serving four years in the Army, Ryan Crittenden left with mixed emotions but a passion for leadership. He would go on to earn his Ph.D. in Organizational Psychology, stepping out into the professional world, eager to take on a mentor. And while the journey that followed was far from smooth, it would become the inspiration for his latest book, “Becoming the Compass”. Ryan and I unpack the benefits of Strengths-Based Coaching, how building your talents shouldn't start at the bottom of your skill-set, and the unbreakable link between Trust and Time. Enjoy the show.

In this feature-length descent into terror, Scary Stories Told in the Dark presents five haunting stories where the line between the real and the unreal is not just blurred—it's obliterated.
