Podcasts about high cost

Hey listeners! Jayme and Mark are back with the extra episode of the show for Sandman Season 2 entitled “Death: The High Cost of Living”. We had a bit of fun within this episode of the podcast, which is apparently the last we can do for the Sandman ‘Cast at this point. The show was cancelled by Netflix shortly after the episode was released.In this podcast we talk about Death's day off from being a God. She encounters someone who is having issues. She becomes his guide in life as she lives a life for a day. She gets to be human and be a sympathetic human within it, to someone that needs someone before they die.We had a great time talking about this episode! We hope you allenjoy it. It was fun for us to do this and we hope to eventually come back todo more.

In this candid episode, Sarah explores a peculiar and frustrating challenge she has encountered repeatedly after years of running The Coaching Revolution: highly intelligent coaches are often the most difficult to teach.While it's reasonable to assume brilliant minds would be quick to implement proven strategies, Sarah reveals that the opposite is often true. She explains how intelligence, when combined with professional success, can create the most stubborn barrier to learning. This episode is a must-listen for any coach who prides themselves on their intellect but finds themselves struggling to get results.In this episode, you will learn:The Paradox of Intelligence: Why the assumption that highly intelligent individuals are easier to work with is "entirely wrong". Their advanced education and success often create a "stubborn barrier to learning".The "Special Case" Syndrome: How highly intelligent coaches resist new strategies. They don't question the methodology directly; instead, they "claim exemption", insisting their situation and their potential clients are special cases where the normal rules don't apply.Ego and Counter-Intuition: The resistance often stems from the "uncomfortable collision between intelligence and ego". Effective marketing can feel "counterintuitive" or simply "wrong", causing analytical minds to retreat into exceptionalism.The Power of Peer Validation: Why breakthroughs for intelligent coaches rarely come from expert instruction. The resistance only disappears when they engage with other highly intelligent professionals in a community who validate the process. Hearing from a peer carries more weight than instruction from a teacher.The High Cost of Resistance: Coaches who remain convinced they are special cases consistently fail, not because the teaching doesn't work, but because they won't implement it properly. They become their own biggest obstacle.The Path to Success: The most successful outcomes happen when intelligent coaches "temporarily suspend their need to understand why something works before they try it". True progress comes when they show humility and accept that brilliance in one field doesn't automatically translate to expertise in another.Have you enjoyed this episode? Find out more and take the FREE quiz at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thecoachingrevolution.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join the FREE Facebook group at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/buildacoachingbusiness⁠

Hi. Today we're looking at modern conveniences that have a higher cost than we'd like to admit.

Three-quarters of Medicare beneficiaries say choosing a Medicare plan is confusing, and nearly 7 in 10 (69%) Medicare beneficiaries have not compared their own source of Medicare coverage with other Medicare options offered in their area during past open enrollment periods, according to surveys. These actions can cost you money and limit your medication coverage and pharmacy access. In this episode of Friends Talk Money, we unpack what you need to know about Open Enrollment and your plan options, diving into the pros and cons of Original Medicare plus a supplement and Part D plan versus Medicare Advantage. We explain what's different this year, including the inconsistency around premiums and the discontinuation of Anthem standalone Part D plans. Our special guest is Diane Omdahl, a nationally recognized expert in Medicare. She's the creator of 65incorporated.com, which guides seniors in their Medicare choices, and author of the bestselling book, Medicare For You. She joins us to explain what steps you can take now to ensure your coverage is fully meeting your medical needs and isn't costing you more than you need to spend in 2026. Medicare Beware! A Special Report (Terry Savage) Survey: 75% of Medicare Beneficiaries Say Selecting a Plan Is Confusing Nearly 7 in 10 Medicare Beneficiaries Did Not Compare Plans During Medicare's Open Enrollment Period

Epic's latest complaints about Apple's App Store rules spark frustration and humor among the panel, while Rivian's lack of CarPlay draws mockery from Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Web Bixby, Marty Jencius, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Jeff Gamet, Eric Bolden, and Jim Rea. The discussion shifts to growing concerns over Google's Gemini integration in Chrome and AI-driven search privacy. Finally, they analyze Bending Spoons' spree of acquisitions, including Vimeo and a surprising $1.4 billion bid for AOL.  MacVoices is supported by MacPaw and the Cloud Cleanup feature.

Welcome to Barn Talk! In today's episode, we're bringing you a truly one-of-a-kind conversation with NASCAR star and proud watermelon farmer, Ross Chastain. Sawyer and Tork sit down with Ross to dig into everything—from his eighth-generation family farm roots in south Florida to his meteoric rise in the racing world.You'll hear Ross share stories of growing up surrounded by watermelon fields, learning the grit and grind of farm life, and how that translated into his “just do it” mentality behind the wheel. We get a behind-the-scenes look at how his family moved from packing watermelons in the old-school way to becoming leaders in the specialty crop market, plus the ups and downs that come from farming land that moves every 10 years and the constant battle with disease, weather, and regulation.But don't think it's all about ag! Ross takes us on a ride through his NASCAR journey—how he hustled his way in, paid his dues, and made a name by staying true to his roots (plus the infamous “wall ride” at Martinsville and the birth of his watermelon-smashing victory celebration). The guys talk about the business side of racing, the pressure, the handshakes (and haymakers), and the crossover between competing in sports and in agriculture.And if that isn't enough, Ross opens up about his mission to shine a spotlight on American farming through his “Ag to Asphalt” project, why he believes every farmer has a story worth telling, and how keeping it real has become his brand—on and off the track.So grab your favorite drink (maybe even a watermelon, if you're inspired), and settle in for a fresh, fast-paced, and downright fun episode with the Melon Man himself.

Sins (Part 35) - The High Cost of Low Living | Luke 15:11-32 | 28 September 2025 - Sunday Evening | Dr. Brad Weniger, Pastor

Veterinary care has become increasingly advanced, but withprogress has come a steep rise in cost, leaving many pet owners struggling to afford the care their animals deserve.

Join me as I unpack whether veterinary care is truly overpriced...or simply underappreciated.

After the miraculous victory at Jericho, Israel's joy is quickly shattered by unexpected defeat at Ai. The reason? Hidden sin in the camp. In Joshua 7, we are reminded that sin is never small, never private, and never without consequence. What Achan tried to bury beneath his tent was ultimately exposed by God—and it brought trouble on the entire nation. In this message, we'll see the seriousness of sin, the danger of concealing it, and the hope we find when we confess and trust the God who is enough.

In the final episode of our 6 Part Series, "Communication Lies Leaders Believe", Tammy delivers a hard truth: some of the support you're giving your team isn't helping—it's enabling. This episode busts the myth that constantly helping will lead to growth and exposes the codependent patterns that can quietly destroy a team's culture. Tammy reveals how over-functioning for your people can lead to burnout among your top talent and a cycle of learned helplessness in your low performers. She provides a reset with 3 clear steps to stop rescuing and start truly empowering your team. Your job is to coach, not to coddle. Key Takeaways for Leaders Helping Can Be Hurtful: "Support becomes enablement when you take the responsibility for someone else's growth." The Codependent Cycle: You rely on your team to make you feel needed, and they rely on you to fix their problems. The High Cost of Coddling: Over-functioning for a low performer can cause your top talent to feel undervalued and lead to a 20% increase in overall turnover. Recognize the Signs: You're rescuing instead of leading if you're more invested in solving their problems than they are, or if you feel guilty when they fail. Break the Cycle: Coach people forward, not where they're at. The Three Steps to Truly Support Growth Name It and Claim It: Step in and address the pattern directly. Acknowledge that you've been solving their issues and state that it's not sustainable. Give Responsibility Back: Map out what success looks like and make it clear that your role is a resource, not a rescuer. Hold the Line: Set clear boundaries and expectations. If they don't act, don't step in. Let the natural consequences of their inaction play out. If this episode hit home, it's time to break a pattern. Go to theleadershipsandbox.com/groups to join the waitlist for our upcoming mastermind groups, where you can tackle these hard truths in a safe place.

Terry Haayema: The High Cost of Unsafe Agile Retrospectives Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "She was kind of like the mum for the team... she was actually the glue that held the team together." Terry tells the story of a team that was functioning like a feature factory until a business analyst became their champion and "team mom." This BA supported everyone through agile transformation and helped build trust and healthy conflict. However, when she mentioned something in a retrospective that led to her being put on performance management and eventually leaving, the team rapidly self-destructed. They lost their sense of belonging and teamness, retreating back to working as independent professionals rather than collaborating. The story illustrates how leadership actions can instantly destroy weeks or months of trust-building work, and how critical psychological safety is for sustainable team performance. For more critical points on how to be a great leader, check this episode with Captain David Marquet, a thought leader in the leadership space who wrote Turn the Ship Around!  Featured Book of the Week: The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni Terry credits The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni as massively influential in his career, particularly praising how Lencioni demonstrates that without trust as a foundation, teams cannot achieve anything else. The book's framework shows how lack of trust prevents healthy conflict, which prevents commitment, which prevents accountability, which prevents results. Terry found the way Lencioni illustrates these dysfunctions and their cascading effects to be incredibly valuable for understanding team dynamics and what's needed to build high-performing teams. In this segment, we also refer to Agile Software Development with Scrum, by Schwaber and Beedle. Self-reflection Question: What would happen to your team's dynamics if your most supportive, trust-building team member suddenly left tomorrow? [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Jason Ritchie from Pearland, TX. Thank you for your partnership with us through Project23. Your commitment is helping deliver God's Word with clarity and conviction. This one's for you. Our text today is Judges 5:6–8. “In the days of Shamgar, son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were abandoned, and travelers kept to the byways. The villagers ceased in Israel; they ceased to be until I arose; I, Deborah, arose as a mother in Israel. When new gods were chosen, then war was in the gates. Was shield or spear to be seen among forty thousand in Israel?”— Judges 5:6-8 Deborah paints a grim “before” picture of Israel. The roads were unsafe. Villages were abandoned. Ordinary life was in hiding. And why? Because “new gods were chosen.” They forgot God's resume and hired other “saviors.” These idols couldn't protect them — in fact, they opened the gates for war. Even worse, there wasn't a shield or spear among forty thousand in Israel. Disarmed. Vulnerable. Exposed. When God's people stop remembering His past faithfulness, they stop trusting His present protection. The result? Fear replaces courage, culture decays, and the enemy moves in. Spiritual drift never starts loud. It begins with a quiet forgetfulness. A skipped prayer. A neglected truth. A replaced affection. Before long, God's resume is dusty and idols are on the payroll. The cost is high. We lose peace. We lose protection. We lose purpose. This is why remembering matters — because the moment we forget, we're already drifting. Leaders must recall God's resume daily, and followers must cling to it as if their lives depend on it — because they do. ASK THIS: Where have you been tempted to trust a “new god” instead of the one true God? How do you recognize the early signs of spiritual drift in your own life? What specific truths about God do you need to recall to stand firm today? Who in your life needs to be reminded of God's resume right now? DO THIS: Identify one “idol” in your life — something you've looked to for safety or satisfaction — and replace it today with an intentional act of worship toward God. PRAY THIS: Lord, don't let me drift. Keep Your faithfulness at the front of my mind so no false god can take Your place. Protect me from the slow fade of forgetting You. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Come Thou Fount (Above All Else)."

What happens when cities eliminate parking requirements? When curbside parking is priced at market rates? When parking revenue stays in the neighborhood instead of disappearing into general funds? These questions form the core of Donald Shoup's revolutionary approach to urban parking policy, explored in depth through Daniel Baldwin Hess's new book "The Shoup Doctrine."Bringing together 37 contributors across 33 chapters, this festschrift celebrates the man who transformed parking from a mundane topic into one of urban planning's most dynamic areas of reform. As Hess explains, Shoup's background as an economist led him to view every parking instance as an economic transaction with hidden costs that profoundly shape our cities.Show Notes:Further Reading: Sandrush: The Rival of the Beach in 20th Century Los Angeles by Elsa DevienneGet a copy of the book from the publisher: https://www.routledge.com/The-Shoup-Doctrine-Essays-Celebrating-Donald-Shoup-and-Parking-Reforms/Hess/p/book/9781032733920?srsltid=AfmBOor_oOVeYjVfiRDJhUR961ekHH5bzYi6Ug7GvS1gf_6n8CFpvqwE Check out our episode where we interviewed Donald Shoup on The High Cost of Free Parking back in year 1: https://www.bookedonplanning.com/podcast/episode/79419c03/the-high-cost-of-free-parking To view the show transcripts, click on the episode at https://bookedonplanning.buzzsprout.com/ Follow us on social media for more content related to each episode:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/booked-on-planning/Twitter: https://twitter.com/BookedPlanningFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/bookedonplanningInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bookedonplanning/

Frank is joined by Jamie, an Australian wrestling journalist and podcaster, to unpack Darren Aronofsky's The Wrestler. They break down Mickey Rourke's career-defining turn as Randy “The Ram,” why the film treats wrestling with rare respect, how indie scenes work behind the curtain, and what the movie gets right about pain, pride, and the gig life. Expect talk on blading, deathmatches, deli counters, and the bittersweet final leap. The Wrestler - CA Timestamps & Topics 00:00 Welcome and guest intro, Jamie's magazine and The Commentary Booth 01:33 Why The Wrestler, and why it treats wrestling seriously 02:21 Indie wrestling in Australia and how regional styles differ 04:27 Two-minute plot speed run for The Wrestler 06:12 Rourke's comeback, near-miss Oscar, and how his story mirrors Randy's 07:03 Aronofsky parallels with Black Swan and the “passion vs body” theme 08:46 The physical toll: pain, injuries, and why “fake” is the wrong word 10:04 Casting what-ifs and why Rourke was the right choice 11:07 Marisa Tomei's character, boundaries, and mirrored struggles 14:18 Real wrestlers on screen: Necro Butcher, Blue Meanie, R-Truth, Nigel McGuinness 15:43 Backstage authenticity: planning matches and protecting spots 16:38 Filmmaking choices: over-the-shoulder, docu feel, sound and silence 17:11 The deli counter sequence and why it hurts so much 21:16 Blading 101, when companies allow blood, and modern policies 23:05 The indie hustle: bookings, calendars, and life on the road 25:07 Health care, rehab access, and duty of care today 26:42 Drugs, CTE, and hard lessons from wrestling's past 28:46 Favorite scenes and the ambiguous ending 31:04 Locker room rituals, “match memory,” and shared shorthand 32:50 What aged well and what hits harder in the gig economy era 34:16 Deathmatch primer and recommended watch list 43:56 Awards talk, where The Wrestler ranks, and Jamie's current projects 46:04 Outro and how to send us your challenges Key Takeaways The Wrestler is a love letter to pro wrestling that treats the craft and its workers with respect. Rourke's performance lands because his real-life arc echoes Randy's fall and claw-back. The movie nails backstage realities: match planning, protecting limbs, and protecting spots. “Fake” is a myth. Stories are scripted. Physicality is very real. Aronofsky's choices — handheld camera, long silences, ring sounds — put you in Randy's head. The deli scene is a perfect “what if” path that collapses under one bad interaction. Indie wrestling is a grind: bookings, travel, day jobs, and recovery are constant tradeoffs. Modern policies are better on rehab and blood, but the culture still battles pain and risk. Memorable Quotes “It's definitely a love letter to wrestling overall.” — Jamie “The stories are fake, but the physicality is real.” — Frank “It almost feels more like a fly on the wall documentary rather than a big budget motion picture.” — Jamie “I love the ambiguity of the ending.” — Jamie “You have to survive the bad days.” — Frank Links & Resources Our site: GeekFreaksPodcast.com GeekFreaksPodcast.com is the source of all news discussed during our podcast.

Would you rather be liked—or be true to yourself? It sounds simple, but what happens when staying true to your values could cost you your job, your marriage, your faith community, or your friendships? In today's episode of The Virtual Couch Presents, Tony Overbay, LMFT, dives into the real difference between character (the traits others see in us) and integrity (the alignment of our actions with our deepest values). Through stories pulled from the legal world, faith communities, workplaces, friendships, and even the messy reality of parenting, Tony explores how external validation can pull us away from who we are—and how emotional maturity, self-determination, and values-based living bring us back home to ourselves. You'll hear about billion-dollar law firms making impossible choices, parents navigating the tension between community expectations and their child's authenticity, and why even a heated debate over pizza sauce in a Hot Pocket can reveal where integrity really lives. At the end of the episode, stay tuned for a short guided meditation to help you connect with your own values and discover how to live them out with integrity. And don't miss the chance to grab a cheat sheet of this episode and Tony's Values Exercise, a simple but powerful tool to help you start discovering who you truly are. This is not about guilt or shame. It's about curiosity, growth, and finding the courage to live with integrity—even when it costs you. 00:00 Welcome to the Virtual Couch 00:50 The Dilemma: Being Liked vs. Being True to Yourself 01:36 Exploring Character and Integrity 02:58 Upcoming Cruise and Workshops 04:04 Character vs. Integrity: Real-Life Examples 14:14 The Legal World: Integrity Under Pressure 33:21 Self-Determination Theory and Emotional Maturity 35:53 Intrinsic Motivation and Self-Determination Theory 36:56 Autonomy, Competence, and Relatedness 37:42 External Rewards and Burnout 38:39 Real-World Examples of Integrity 39:42 Sophia's Journey to Integrity 42:16 Daniel's Struggle with Values 45:12 Integrity in Different Contexts 58:06 Faith and Integrity 01:06:15 Guided Meditation: Coming Home to Your Values Contact Tony at contact@tonyoverbay.com to learn more about his Emotional Architects men's group.
