In this episode of Business Growth Talks, Mark Hayward delves into the underutilized strategy of podcast guesting as a powerful tool for business growth. He emphasizes how guest appearances on established podcasts provide an opportunity to tap into pre-existing trust between a host and their audience, positioning oneself as a thought leader and cultivating high credibility. Mark provides listeners with a robust understanding of podcast guesting, breaking down its benefits into ten insightful reasons, that include audience growth, credibility, and long-term content creation.Starting with the idea of borrowing someone else's audience, Mark stresses how podcast guesting allows business owners to strengthen their credibility and visibility by appearing on respected podcasts. He elucidates how podcasts offer a unique platform to develop long-form trust and showcase expertise through in-depth conversations, a privilege not offered by traditional media methods like TV or social posts.

Tired of DE cleanings that turn into all-day projects and callbacks? We dive straight into the realities of servicing DE filters on a busy pool route and share a field-tested system that saves time, protects your back, and stops fresh powder from blowing straight back into the pool. If you've ever rebuilt a vertical grid assembly on a hot driveway and questioned your life choices, this one's for you.We start with the essentials: how DE captures down to about 3 microns and why that pristine clarity comes with real trade-offs. Then we map the filter landscape—quad-style elements, the common vertical grid assemblies from Pentair, Hayward, and Jandy, and the legacy horizontal units that still pop up. You'll learn the crucial part differences, like the capped grids for Pentair's 2000/4000 series versus standard open-top grids, so you order right and rebuild once.From there, we get tactical. You'll get a faster, cleaner method to service vertical grids: remove the top manifold, clean and inspect each grid one by one, flush the tank sockets as you go, and avoid the time sink of a full teardown puzzle. We also pinpoint the exact causes of DE blowback—missing or stretched stem o-rings, cracked manifolds, damaged air bleeders, mis-seated clips, and tiny tears that act like highways for fresh powder. Small rips aren't harmless; they're a guarantee of white clouds at the returns.When it's time to replace, we offer a clear plan. If three grids are torn, replace all eight. When manifolds look brittle or bleeder parts are missing, a complete grid assembly often costs about the same as piece-by-piece parts and installs in minutes. • DE filtration advantages and messy trade-offs• Quad vs vertical vs older horizontal designs• Part differences between Pentair 2000/4000 and standard grids• One-by-one grid cleaning workflow to prevent rebuild errors• Risks of lifting the full wet assembly• Causes of DE blowback and leak points to check• When to replace torn grids and full sets• Full grid assembly rebuilds for speed and reliabiSend a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Pool Pros text questions hereWayne goes full soapbox after watching an HGTV/Magnolia renovation show that builds a commercial-style pool using “biofilters” as a chemical-free solution—without ever addressing sanitation, oxidation, or code-required disinfectant residuals. Steve backs him up with real-world field logic: filtration doesn't equal disinfection, and “natural” systems can turn into expensive science projects fast.Then the episode shifts into the Insurance Interlude with Pat Grignon (California Pool Association), digging into warranty claims, liability, how insurance carriers investigate faults, and why documentation (photos/video/notes) protects your business for years.Segment 1 — Wayne's HGTV rant: Biofilters, “natural pools,” and reality TV chemistry (00:00–25:14)Key takeawaysFiltration is not sanitation. Even DE filtration doesn't catch bacteria/viruses reliably because pathogens are below typical filter micron ratings.Biofilters often rely on nitrifying bacteria (Wayne names Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter) that convert:ammonia → nitrites → nitratesWayne's red flag: nitrates feed algae, and there's no easy chemical “undo” once nitrates climb—drain and replace is often the only practical correction.Real-world reality check: if bathers are involved, ammonia shows up (sweat/urine), and you still need an actual sanitizer system.The pool “looked great” on reveal day… but nobody wanted to get in (which Steve jokes is basically the fate of many pools anyway).Wayne predicts the biofilter setup becomes a regret purchase—$15,000 spent before eventually converting to conventional filtration + sanitation.Quoteable moments“Natural pool” = Wayne's eyes bug out.“People want to swim in water, not chemicals… but safe water takes chemistry.”Steve's “pimp my ride but for houses” comparison for the show's projects.Segment 2 — Insurance Interlude w/ Pat Grignon: Warranty work, liability, and documenting the mess (25:14–40:18)What's coveredSteve explains the reality of warranty service: no urgency unless someone becomes the “pain in the ass” pushing it forward.Pat outlines how manufacturers protect themselves:Warranty/service stations often required to carry high insurance limits and endorsements that shield the manufacturer.Waiver of subrogation explained:Normally, your insurer pays then may subrogate (recover) from a manufacturer if a defect caused the loss.Waiver blocks that upstream recovery—so your policy can get stuck holding the bag even when the part was defective.Notable mentionsHGTV / Magnolia Network renovation show: “Building Outside the Lines”Movie drop: True Romance (Hans Zimmer soundtrack, Tarantino script)Brands mentioned in discussion/examples: Hayward, Jandy (AquaLink), Pentair, plus references to warranty stations and commercial systems.Call to action (from the hosts)Got a technical question or topic idea?

Chlorine at zero and a control panel full of mixed messages can make any pool owner or service pro feel stuck. We break the problem apart step by step so you can restore steady saltwater chlorination with confidence, starting with the most common culprits and moving into the hidden faults that waste time and chemicals.We start at the cell, explaining how thin scale films quietly choke production long before a “clean cell” warning appears, and the right acid‑wash ratios that protect plates. Then we put the panel's salinity reading to the test with a handheld meter, outlining the true operating window of 2800 to 3500 ppm and why 3000 ppm is a practical sweet spot. You'll learn how false low and high salt readings point to aging cells or sensors and what to expect from brands like Hayward and Pentair when their cells near end‑of‑life. Temperature gets its due as we show why most generators idle in the low 60s and how to bridge winter with a simple floater plan.From there, we dig into hardware and hydraulics. Flow sensors, chewed wires, and bad switches can lock out generation, and a dirty filter or slow variable‑speed schedule starves the cell of activation flow. We share dependable RPM targets, filter habits, and placement tips to keep water moving through the cell safely. You'll also hear a clear method to benchmark production: run one 24‑hour, 100 percent, high‑RPM cycle and measure the chlorine rise. That single test separates hardware failures from runtime math, letting you tune hours, RPMs, and output percentage to match pool size, sunlight, and bather load.• dirty cell plates blocking current and how to clean safely• verifying salinity with a meter and ideal ppm range• recognizing false low and high salt readings• temperature thresholds that shut down production• expected cell lifespan and end‑of‑life signs• failed sensors, chewed wires, and flow‑switch problems• pump RPM, filter condition, and activation flow• benchmarking output with a 24‑hour full‑power test• dialing runtime and percentage to meet demandSend a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

When the history of this moment is written, Minneapolis may take its place alongside Selma, Stonewall, and Harper's Ferry—a name synonymous with resistance. In this episode, Matthew Taylor and Susie Hayward return to American Unexceptionalism to reflect on what has unfolded in the Twin Cities over the past two months: mass ICE deployments, escalating authoritarian tactics, and a powerful, community-rooted response. Drawing from the streets of Minneapolis and St. Paul, they explore what frontline resistance looks like in real time, how religious leaders have stepped into both pastoral and prophetic roles, and why this moment feels like the full activation of both Trump-era authoritarian impulses and an American resistance movement finding its footing. This conversation serves as a postlude—and a reckoning—with the themes of American Unexceptionalism. Lessons once drawn from Sri Lanka, South Korea, Brazil, and beyond are now being lived out at home, faster and more intensely than expected. Taylor and Hayward unpack why Minneapolis became the flashpoint, how multifaith and multigenerational organizing has changed the terrain, and what these experiences can teach communities across the country preparing for what may come next. The message is urgent and clear: what's happening in Minneapolis is coming for the rest of America—and the time to learn, organize, and build the relationships needed to defend democracy is now. Dr. Matthew D. Taylor is a visiting scholar at the center on Faith and Justice at Georgetown University. His book, The Violent Take It by Force: The Christian Movement that is Threatening Our Democracy (Broadleaf, 2024), tracks how a loose network of charismatic Christian leaders called the New Apostolic Reformation was a major instigating force for the January 6th Insurrection and is currently reshaping the culture of the religious right in the U.S. Taylor is also the creator of the audio docuseries Charismatic Revival Fury: The New Apostolic Reformation. Rev. Susan Hayward: was until recently the lead on the US Institute of Peace's efforts to understand religious dimensions of conflict and advance efforts engaging religious actors and organizations in peacebuilding. She has conducted political asylum and refugee work with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and Advocates for Human Rights. Rev. Hayward studied Buddhism in Nepal and is an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ. www.axismundi.us Executive Producer: Dr. Bradley Onishi Producer: Andrew Gill Original Music and Mixing: Scott Okamoto Production Assistance: Kari Onishi Learn more about your ad choices.

Prices are shifting, chemicals are spiking, and margins get squeezed fastest when your billing model hides the true cost of service. We unpack the 2026 State of the Pool Service Report from Skimmer and turn its data into moves you can make this week—clear regional benchmarks, smarter billing, and a simple plan to stop giving away chemicals.For the full Skimmer 2026 Report: https://hubs.la/Q03_zvF80 We start with the numbers: average monthly service near 225 dollars in key Sunbelt markets, plus common rates for openings, closings, filter cleaning, and salt cell maintenance. Then we dig into why 76 percent of companies still prefer monthly billing and how it quietly stabilizes revenue compared with per stop invoicing. From there, we map a practical transition to a hybrid chemical model: tablets and shock billed to the client, specialty chemicals as pass-throughs, and a small maintenance dose included so most invoices stay steady while heavy-use pools pay their way.Cash flow gets a boost with deposits on repairs and installs. You'll hear why a 50 percent deposit or set booking fee reduces cancellations, funds equipment purchases upfront, and shortens the money gap on bigger jobs. We also share where pros are sourcing—Pool Corp and Heritage remain dominant thanks to price and availability—and how brand ecosystems differ by region, with Pentair leading in many Sunbelt markets and Hayward stronger on the East Coast.We close with easy, low-friction price adjustments customers rarely fight: inch filter cleanings toward triple digits, align salt cell service with market averages, and keep monthly rates competitive for your area. If you want a resilient pool business, use data to guide your pricing, make billing transparent, and remove the profit leaks hiding in chemicals. • Regional price benchmarks and what they mean• Monthly billing versus per stop billing trade-offs• When and how to charge for chemicals• How to phase in tablet and shock billing• Deposit policies that reduce risk• Supplier and brand preferences Send us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

What if podcasting wasn't just content—but a bridge out of corporate?In this episode, Brett sits down with Mark Hayward, former PwC and KPMG consultant turned podcast host and podcast guesting entrepreneur, to break down his escape from corporate—and how podcasting quietly became one of his most powerful tools.Mark shares how he started a podcast while still in corporate, not to make money, but to build confidence, find his voice, and explore what life outside the corporate box could look like. That passion project eventually opened doors to consulting, coaching, real estate experimentation—and ultimately a business built around helping others grow through podcast guesting.This is a real, honest conversation about experimentation, false starts, energy, and why podcasting works differently than most people expect.What We Cover • Leaving PwC and KPMG after a 14-year corporate career • Why Mark started a podcast before leaving corporate • The role experimentation plays in finding your escape path • Why not every revenue stream is worth keeping • Coaching vs. consulting vs. creative work (and the energy test) • Podcast hosting vs. podcast guesting — and how each actually works • Why guests often get more business than hosts • How podcasting builds confidence, clarity, and opportunity • Practical advice for corporate professionals who know they want out—but don't know what's nextKey TakeawayYou don't need a perfect plan to escape corporate. You need momentum, experimentation, and a way to get into conversations that open doors. Podcasting can be one of those doors.Connect with Mark • Website: podcastintroduction.com • Podcast: Business Growth Talks • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-hayward-163721a0/ Listen, subscribe, and shareIf corporate feels off—but you can't see the exit yet—this episode will help you think differently about your options.

In this Sofa Session, Kate Hayward, Managing Director of Xero UK, shares how growing up in a self-employed household shaped her views on risk, money and why bookkeepers are now more vital than ever to small businesses. For UK bookkeepers, this is a clear, honest look at where the profession is heading and how to stay at the centre of it. Kate talks about watching her parents worry over money at the kitchen table, how that drove her into a science degree and a Big Four career, and why she eventually left the perceived safety of that world to join a fast-growing tech company while planning to start a family. She shares the leadership moment that stopped her from self-selecting out of a senior role because of motherhood, and why background should never limit whose voice is heard in business or policy. A major theme of the conversation is financial literacy. Kate explains why the UK still lacks a joined-up, practical approach to money education and why Xero has invested in its financial literacy campaign to try to change that. She describes financial literacy as a life-cycle issue, from what children see at home to the decisions business owners face as they grow. For bookkeepers and accountants, Kate is clear: you are the lifeline for many small businesses. With the disappearance of the traditional bank manager, clients now turn to their adviser to interpret the numbers, sense-check decisions and connect them to wider support. She also acknowledges that many advisers were never taught sales, marketing or entrepreneurship, even though clients increasingly expect that wider commercial input. The episode also tackles AI and the future of the profession. Kate's view is firm: AI will not replace bookkeepers or accountants. It will remove repetitive manual work and create space for deeper conversations, better insight and more ambitious client growth. The skills that matter most become communication, commercial thinking, pricing confidence and the ability to guide clients through uncertainty. If you are a UK bookkeeper or accountant who cares about small business, worries about AI, or wants to play a bigger role in clients' financial understanding and long-term success, this conversation with Kate Hayward will help you see what's coming next — and how you can stay essential. ----------------------------------------------- About us We're Jo and Zoe and we help bookkeepers find clients, make more money and build profitable businesses they love.

Anyone have the Anaheim Ducks in first place at this point of the season with the likes of Vegas, Los Angeles and Edmonton residing with them in the Pacific Division? If you said no, you're not alone but there they sit. Long-time Ducks TV analyst Brian Hayward join Neil and Vic to discuss the "whys" to their first-half success.In Three Things You Need to Pay Attention To, the Toronto Maple Leafs are surging - in part due to a rookie goaltender and despite a power play which sunk to the depths of the NHL. We also hit on a wild Tuesday with four games being sent to overtime in the final seconds.Also, Neil goes back into the GM chair as we look at three teams that have very different scenarios facing them as the season moves forward.

This week we're featuring an episode from American UnExceptionalism, a limited podcast series that examines the intersection of authoritarianism and religious fundamentalism around the world – looking for lessons that Americans can learn from to resist Christian nationalism and the threat it poses to our democracy. The series turns the idea of American exceptionalism on its head, asking: What can we learn from others about protecting democracy when the stakes are high? Co-hosts Susan Hayward and Matthew D. Taylor bring their expertise to bear as scholars of religion, religious extremism, and peace. In this episode, Taylor and Hayward explore Sri Lanka and Myanmar (Burma), two Buddhist-majority countries. In the words of one guest, a “minority complex” exists in both countries – the sense among members of the dominant group that they're under threat from minority groups inlcuding Hindus, Muslims and Christians. Authoritarian leaders have exploited these fears, but religion has also been used in creative ways as a tool of resistance. And in Sri Lanka, a nonviolent uprising unseated an elected president who had become increasingly authoritarian, amidst an economic crisis in 2022. Guests are Geethika Dharmasinghe from Sri Lanka, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Toronto, with a PhD in Asian Literature, Religion and Culture, and David Thang Moe from Myanmar, is a Postdoctoral Associate and Lecturer in Southeast Asian Studies at Yale University.American UnExceptionalism is a project of Axis Mundi in collaboration with the Institute for Islamic, Christian, and Jewish Studies.

Bill Gates and the Decline of Apocalyptic Environmentalism — Steven Hayward — Hayward analyzes Bill Gates'srecent statement that climate apocalypse is not imminent, characterizing this admission as a potential "death knell" for alarmist environmentalism. Hayward traces the intellectual shift from 1960s Kennedy-era liberal optimism emphasizing growth and technological progress to 1970s Malthusian pessimism predicting resource exhaustion, arguing that modern environmental activism is systematically failing because its catastrophic predictions regarding resource depletion have proven factually incorrect. 1931
Supply-Side Progressivism and the High Cost of Green Energy Regulation — Steven Hayward — Haywardexamines the emerging "supply-side progressivism" movement championed by Ezra Klein, which belatedly acknowledges that excessive regulatory frameworks systematically damage economic competitiveness and living standards. Hayward criticizes these progressive intellectuals for acting as though they discovered this reality, ignoring forty years of conservative scholarship documenting regulatory deadweight losses. Hayward highlights California'ssoaring gasoline prices—approaching $7 per gallon in certain jurisdictions—resulting from regulatory destruction of refinery capacity while mandating electric vehicle transition by 2035, creating structural energy price inflation. 1932
PREVIEW — Professor Steven Hayward — The Shift from Optimism to Environmental Gloom. John Batchelor and Professor Steven Hayward trace the intellectual origins of "apocalyptic environmentalism" to the comprehensive collapse of liberal optimism during the turbulent 1960s. Hayward argues that catastrophic policy failures regarding Vietnam War prosecution, escalating urban crime, and intractable poverty discredited liberal governance ideology, displacing the Kennedy-era sunniness and technological optimism with a persistent cultural pessimism that catalyzed the environmental catastrophism of the 1970s. Hayward documents how this ideological shift from confidence to apocalyptic gloom sustained Republican political victories throughout subsequent decades, establishing enduring conservative demographic coalitions opposing progressive environmental regulation predicated on existential doom narratives.
In this episode of SuperPsyched, host Dr. Adam Dorsay delves into the realities of resilience and post-traumatic growth with Dr. H'Sien Hayward, a psychologist who shares her incredible personal journey.

Dan is off this week. So we are pleased to bring you a feature from our new limited series American Unexceptionalism: Global Lessons on Fighting Religious Nationalism with Dr. Matthew Taylor and Rev. Susan Hayward. South Korea is a nation that is deeply entwined with the United States. From the Korean War (which never technically ended) to Korean pop culture to the deep ties between Korean and American evangelical communities, what happens in the US affects South Korea and vice versa. But most Americans weren't paying attention to the fact that Korean democracy was startlingly challenged less than a year ago when the president at the time (President Yoon) declared martial law and tried to have his political enemies arrested. That attempt at autocratic takeover was unsuccessful, because Koreans took to the streets to protest and even Yoon's own party helped overturn his martial law decision and then impeach him. What can we in the United States learn from Korean activists and religious communities about how to resist wannabe tyrants? We get help on this question from two of the foremost experts on the interchanges between Korean religion and American religion: Helen J. Kim and Ray Kim.

His book, The Violent Take It by Force: The Christian Movement that is Threatening Our Democracy (Broadleaf, 2024), tracks how a loose network of charismatic Christian leaders called the New Apostolic Reformation was a major instigating force for the January 6th Insurrection and is currently reshaping the culture of the religious right in the U.S. Taylor is also the creator of the audio docuseries Charismatic Revival Fury: The New Apostolic Reformation. Rev. Susan Hayward: was until recently the lead on the US Institute of Peace's efforts to understand religious dimensions of conflict and advance efforts engaging religious actors and organizations in peacebuilding.
