This episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson takes a hard look at the growing contradictions surrounding Erika Kirk and the direction of TPUSA's AmFest (or should I say IsFest). From Charlie Kirk's own recorded warnings about bad cultural role models to TPUSA turning around and platforming those very same celebrities (Nicki Minaj included) whose lifestyles openly contradict Christian teaching, the hypocrisy is no longer ignorable.We're breaking down how moral inconsistency, pop-culture appeasement, and ideological confusion are rotting the conservative movement from the inside out. America First cannot exist without Christianity first—not as a buzzword, not as branding, but as the moral and cultural foundation of who we are. And right now, we are watching our spiritual and national identity slip away in real time.When so-called Christian leaders blur lines, excuse the very behavior they once condemned, and choose influence over truth, they don't just lose credibility, they lose the plot (and they lose the people who trusted them).This episode is a call for honesty, consistency, and real conservative leadership rooted in the Christian values they claim to stand for. Not clout, not platforms, and not sinful worldliness.We don't need people playing leaders.We need actual leadership.—https://www.bible.com/

Send us a textThis episode of The Anthony Amen Show is different — Anthony is the one in the hot seat.In a raw, unfiltered interview, Anthony breaks down what it actually takes to move from coach to entrepreneur, and why most fitness professionals never make the jump. We talk about the unglamorous realities behind building a real business: learning to love numbers and systems, deciding whether you're an operator or a hobbyist, and using long-term thinking to design a life that doesn't collapse under success.Anthony shares how his passion for coaching evolved into building scalable machines that help more people — and how that shift demanded emotional regulation, better habits, and uncomfortable risk. The conversation covers season-of-life decisions, including when to keep a 9–5 while building at night, when asymmetric upside justifies going all-in, and how to apply “gym logic” to business growth.It gets personal. Anthony opens up about losing friendships, rebuilding his relationship with the woman who became his wife, and learning how proximity, environment, and ownership shape outcomes — in business and in life.This episode is for:Fitness professionals who want more than trading hours for dollarsEntrepreneurs balancing ambition with relationshipsAnyone building something meaningful who feels the weight of responsibilityIf you're trying to scale without burning out — or wondering what the real cost of growth looks like — this conversation gives you frameworks, not fluff.Subscribe to The Anthony Amen Show for grounded conversations on fitness, business, leadership, and life.

Some leadership lessons arrive through strategy. Others arrive at 38,000 feet, reading a single sentence that reframes everything. For Garry Ridge, former CEO and Chairman Emeritus of WD-40, that moment sparked a radical shift in how he thought about leadership, culture, and responsibility. In his second appearance on The Unlock Moment, Garry returns to reflect on what he's learned since stepping away from the CEO role … and what still matters most about leading well. In this conversation, Garry shares deeper insight into servant leadership, psychological safety, and why fear is the enemy of learning. He unpacks the real meaning behind his provocatively titled book Any Dumb Ass Can Do It, and explains why leadership doesn't require brilliance - just care, consistency, and courage. This episode is a reminder that great leadership isn't about control or charisma. It's about how you show up and the environment you create for others to thrive. The Unlock Moment is hosted by Dr Gary Crotaz, PhD — executive coach, speaker and award-winning author.

Keith Nester spent more than two decades as a Protestant pastor. Preaching, leading, counseling, and absolutely certain he would never become Catholic. Yet his actual conversion story is long, often humorous, at times painful, and far deeper than a simple change of denomination. In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt sit down with​ ⁨ @KeithNester  to uncover what really happened behind the scenes: the fears he carried, the pride he had to confront, the moments of grace that broke him open, and the unexpected ways God used marriage, suffering, and friendship to draw him home. But this isn't just a conversion story, the show quickly turns to truths every man needs to hear. Truths about how to lead, love, and live the faith with integrity. Keith shares the “hard truth” he believes all men must face: that authority without humility collapses, that evangelization begins long before words are spoken, but we still must speak, and that the quiet witness of fatherhood, sacrifice, and joy can transform more hearts than arguments ever will.

What if the biggest threat to your startup isn't the competition, but the decisions you make in the first six months? In this episode of 10 Minute Tech Talks, we dive into a powerful segment from our TechVibe Radio interview with Juliana Keeling and Joe Swider of Terravive, the fast-growing company reinventing single-use products with American-made compostable materials. Their journey hasn't been driven by hype or shortcuts — it's been shaped by sharp strategic thinking, disciplined growth, and a relentless commitment to building a real business from the ground up. In this clip, Juliana and Joe open up about the lessons most founders learn too late: • Why a great idea means nothing without true product-market fit • How accelerators can accelerate the right things — including funding that doesn't cost you equity • The danger of jumping at the first investor check, and how early dilution can quietly sink a company • What authentic partnership looks like when the stakes get high • Why staying scrappy and in control ended up being their greatest advantage This is a candid, practical look at entrepreneurship from two people who have fought through the messy middle and come out stronger. Whether you're building something new or trying to course-correct something established, their insights land with uncommon clarity. Give it a listen — your future self will thank you.

Most reps think buyers ignore them because “the market is quiet” or “it's December.”In reality, buyers don't respond because your message has no clear purpose, no relevance, and no reason to care right now.In this episode, we break down:The #1 reason buyers ignore your emails, calls and LinkedIn messagesWhy generic outreach is killing your reply ratesHow top reps create urgency and context in under 30 secondsWhat would actually make you take a meeting right now (and how to use that)Why December is a hidden advantage for serious reps, not a dead monthHow to use intent, timing and personalization to book more meetings with big orgsSimple messaging shifts that turn “no reply” into real pipelineThis isn't another fluffy list of “sales tips.”It's a real conversation about buyer psychology, cold outreach, and what high-performing B2B sales teams do differently to win meetings.⭐ Unlock free resources (templates, frameworks & prompts):https://coachpilot.beehiiv.com/Join the community & access 157+ templates, frameworks and mega AI prompts used by top revenue teams.

Are influencer belts and fast-tracked promotions ruining Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? In this episode of the BJJ Balance Podcast, we dive into one of the most controversial conversations in modern grappling: the legitimacy of belt promotions in the social media era.With the rise of superfight invitations, PGF qualifiers, creator-led gyms, and viral competitors, we're seeing more athletes promoted faster than ever — sometimes skipping the traditional grind under established professors. Is this evolution of the sport, or is it watering down what belts truly represent?We discuss:• How influencer promotions are changing belt legitimacy• Whether competition success should outweigh training time• Why lineage still matters in jiu-jitsu• The difference between real skill and perceived rank• How amateur superfights compare to pro events• PGF qualifiers and what they mean for modern competition• Why “fame belts” are becoming a controversial topicIf you've ever questioned how belts are awarded or wondered if jiu-jitsu promotions are losing credibility, this episode answers the hard questions no one wants to say out loud.Please Follow BJJ Balance on all of our socials:IG: @BJJBalanceDiscord: discord.gg/bjjbalanceTik Tok: @BJJBalanceYouTube: YouTube.com/@BJJBalanceKenny IG: @FreakPartyBJJMatt IG: @oss_nation_bjj

Most runners swear running is their therapy. I get it. Ron gets it. We've both been there; using the miles to outrun the hard stuff instead of actually dealing with it. But in this episode we break down why that mindset quietly wrecks your running, your mood, and your progress. We get into the real reasons running can't be your emotional safety net: You can't make good decisions when you're fatigued. You attach your mental health to a sport that can be taken away with one niggle. You start using running as a distraction instead of a solution. And worst of all, you begin associating the thing you love with feeling awful.This one is honest, confronting, and probably the wake-up call some runners need.If you want to run stronger, last longer, and enjoy the sport without leaning on it to fix everything… listen in.Clear, practical takeaways inside. No fluff. No sugarcoating.

If you want the real truth about divorce, buckle up. In this episode, Andrea and Morgan deliver the unfiltered, uncomfortable, absolutely-necessary truths your lawyer wishes you understood…but might be too afraid to say directly.From how the legal system really works to why your expectations are sabotaging your sanity, this episode is the wake-up call you need if you're navigating divorce, co-parenting, or even just preparing for that dreaded Thanksgiving dinner with your very opinionated family.This one is honest, hilarious, a little unhinged (hi Andrea), and packed with strategic guidance that will help you avoid major mistakes.What You'll Learn in This Episode1. Nothing in divorce is “fair” — and why that mindset will destroy youThe legal system doesn't care about fairness. It's designed for equitable distribution, not emotional justice.2. Stop expecting the legal system to deliver revengeMorgan breaks down why the courts aren't built to punish your ex — even when you deeply (and correctly) feel they deserve it.3. Lower your expectations, raise your strategyWhy your expectations are often unrealistic, what “the range” actually means in divorce outcomes, and how lowering your expectations protects your mental health and your wallet.4. Know the law where you actually live (yes, geography matters)Andrea reminds listeners that different states = different standards. Don't guess. Don't Google. Ask your lawyer to explain what's realistic where YOU live.5. Stop focusing on your ex — focus on YOUYour ex won't suddenly transform into a better human mid-divorce. (Brenda does not become Glinda.) Focus on your responses, your regulation, and your strategy.6. Backseat drivers & Thanksgiving disastersHow to shut down intrusive family commentary (“That's not fair!”) and exactly what to say at the holiday table when everyone wants details about your divorce.7. Your kids will hurt — but they will be OKAndrea shares her own emotional story about her first Thanksgiving without her kids, and how focusing on what she could control changed everything.8. Do NOT fire off emotional textsUse a communication app like OurFamilyWizard to protect yourself legally and emotionally — especially with the ToneMeter feature that stops you from sending something you'll regret. Hard Truths from This EpisodeThe legal system is not designed to make you feel better.Your ex won't change just because you'd like them to.Your attorney isn't your therapist.Fairness is not a legal standard. Equitable is.Focusing on your ex keeps you stuck.You are responsible for asking your lawyer the right questions.Your expectations need to be realistic, not emotional.⏱️ Timestamps00:00 — Hard truth: nothing about divorce is “fair”00:05 — Why the legal system will NOT give you justice or revenge00:21 — Show intro01:12 — Morgan's chaotic morning + the freight elevator monkey situation02:38 — Why a small client gift boosted the entire legal team03:26 — Andrea's shocking weekend text to Morgan04:30 — Kim Kardashian's “All's Fair”: Andrea's surprising review05:36 — HARD TRUTH #1: Lower your expectations08:43 — How to “bet on yourself” when everything feels...

In this episode, Eric sits down with Tony Gray from the Global Business Development Association to completely reframe what business development really is—and why most companies get it wrong. Tony explains how he built the Business Development Body of Knowledge after years of struggling to "break into BD," why traditional labels like B2B/B2C/B2G are less important than intent and trust, and how purpose, empathy, and truth literally create the brain chemistry that drives deals. He breaks down the difference between sales and true business development, shows how untrained teams cause massive revenue leakage, and shares practical tactics like open-book BD certification, community-led growth, and agile proposal methods that stop relying on overworked SMEs and start producing cleaner, clearer, more winnable bids. Key Takeaways Trust is the first principle of BD – purpose, empathy, and truth drive the brain chemistry that leads to real, lasting relationships and referrals. Everyone in your company is a business developer – if your team can't spot customer pain points and route them back to leadership, you're leaking revenue. Community-led growth beats going solo – partnering with aligned experts and building niche communities gets you into new markets faster than cold outreach alone.

In an interview with CE Pro, Total Home Technologies CEO Keith Harrison says homeowner satisfaction with professionally installed smart homes is far lower than most integrators realize. Citing CEDIA data and manufacturer statistics, he notes that satisfaction averages in the high 40% range after one year and falls below 20% after five years. Harrison attributes this to weak networking foundations, inconsistent industry standards, limited customization and a tendency for integrators to undersell the infrastructure required for reliable systems.He argues the industry still treats automation like a one-time appliance rather than an ongoing service, leading to abandoned systems and frustrated homeowners. Harrison also warns that integrators are behind on AI, while Apple, Google, Amazon and Samsung rapidly push predictive home features. He urges dealers to embrace simplicity, lean into mainstream ecosystems when appropriate and design systems built on proper networking, redundancy and long-term service.

What do voters actually want—and why do so many politicians keep getting it wrong? This week I talk with the great Simon Bazelon about the real data behind voter shifts, why popular narratives miss the mark, and what a winning path forward for Democrats really looks like.Simon is the lead author of a terrific new report, “Deciding to Win: Toward a Common Sense Renewal of the Democratic Party.” This report, released by our friends at Welcome, is a must read for anyone involved in Democratic politics:In order to take back Congress and the presidency, Democrats need to understand the political and strategic landscape we face. Deciding to Win aims to provide the most comprehensive account to date of why Democrats lost and what our party needs to do to win again. We draw on thousands of election results, hundreds of public polls and academic papers, dozens of case studies, and surveys of more than 500,000 voters we conducted since the 2024 election. Deciding to Win argues that since 2012, highly educated staffers, donors, advocacy groups, pundits, and elected officials have reshaped the Democratic Party's agenda, decreasing our party's focus on the economic issues that are the top concerns of the American people. These same forces have pushed our party to adopt unpopular positions on a number of issues that are important to voters, including immigration and public safety. To win again, Democrats need to listen more to voters and less to out-of-touch donors, detached party elites, and Democratic politicians who consistently underperform the top of the ticket. Please check out Simon's report and listen in on the discussion!A transcript of this podcast is available on our website. Get full access to The Liberal Patriot at www.liberalpatriot.com/subscribe

Everyone wants their kid to train more at home… but nobody warns you about this part.In this short, real-talk episode, I share a conversation with a friend whose son loves soccer — but doesn't always love the work. If you've ever tried to get your child to do solo reps, wall passing, juggling, or even follow-along videos… you already know.This isn't about motivation hacks, gimmicks, magic apps, or the promise that training will somehow become “fun.” It won't — not in the way kids expect fun. Solo training is delayed gratification — and that's exactly why it works.Press play. It's short. It's honest. And it may change how you think about training forever.

It's every parent's worst nightmare: hearing the words “I hate you” come out of your child's mouth. The kid you'd do anything for now looks at you like you're the enemy.

When a relationship ends, it's natural to crave closure. We want answers, explanations, or one last conversation that will tie everything up neatly and help us move on. But the reality is, closure rarely comes from someone else — it's something we have to create for ourselves.In this episode, I share some hard but freeing truths about closure:Why the relationships that leave us most desperate for closure are usually the ones least likely to give itHow the idea of a “closure conversation” can sometimes be a hidden way of keeping the door openWhy even when we get answers, they rarely soothe us in the way we hopeThe difference between chasing closure from someone else versus cultivating it within yourselfPractical ways to create your own sense of closure and peaceIf you've been waiting for that message, that explanation, or that final conversation to make things better, this episode will help you see closure differently — and take back your power to move forward.Highlighted Links Free Break-Up Training: The 3 Shifts That Help Anxiously Attached People Heal After a Break-up Free Training: How to Heal Anxious Attachment and (Finally) Feel Secure in Life & Love Additional Resources Download the FREE Anxious Attachment Starter Kit here Join my email list
