Podcasts about Hint

A winter storm may be easing, but the temperature rises fast once we dig into power, policy, and how leaders talk when the stakes are high. We start with Sam Bregman's headline‑grabbing vow to prosecute ICE agents and break down what the law actually requires—probable cause, federal authority, and why loose talking points can blur the line between protest and peril. Then we move to Minneapolis, where a fatal confrontation and dueling statements from public figures reveal the cost of incendiary messaging. We compare tones, highlight a notable pivot toward de‑escalation, and make the case for leadership that lowers the heat while enforcement continues.From there, we confront New Mexico's Senate Bill 18, a net zero proposal with massive fiscal consequences. Our budget leans on oil and gas; stripping reliable energy before building firm replacements invites price spikes, service instability, and cuts to education and healthcare. Europe's missteps offer a cautionary map: heavy spending, lower output, and higher rates. If demand surges with data centers and AI, the only responsible path is to add dependable capacity first—think nuclear and realistic baseload—before forcing a rapid drawdown that punishes working families.We also examine how SNAP's error rate climbed as approvals sped up, and why new federal rules could shift costs back onto New Mexico taxpayers. Integrity and speed can coexist with smarter verification, better data tools, and the right incentives. On healthcare, we cut through the fog around physician counts to focus on what patients feel every day: long waits, fewer specialists, and rising malpractice pressure. Reform must balance patient rights with stability that keeps doctors in state and in practice.And yes, we finish with the most dangerous “animals” in America—and you'll be surprised. Hint: it isn't the predator in your trail-cam dreams. Press play for a frank, results‑oriented conversation about law, safety, energy, benefits, and access to care.

Good morning, afternoon, and good evening, investor! Scott Carson here, ready to tackle the burning questions in the note investing world. I went straight to the source – Google's Gemini AI – and asked for the 20 most frequently asked questions by note investors. And let me tell you, AI did not disappoint! Since so many new folks want to jump into the "sexy side of real estate," I'm breaking down these essential FAQs to help you act like the bank, not the pawn.If you've ever wondered how much cash you really need, whether you own the property (spoiler: you don't!), or how to avoid common pitfalls, this episode is your no-nonsense guide. As I always say, the pen is mightier than the hammer, and these insights are your ultimate toolkit for 2026.Here's your AI-powered cheat sheet to note investing:Note Investing 101: The Basics & Beyond: What's a real estate note? (It's an IOU, baby!). What's the difference between performing, non-performing, and "scratch & dent" loans? And seriously, how much money do you actually need to start? (Hint: it can be less than you think!).Yields, Values & Spreads (No, Not Butter): Unpack what constitutes a "good yield" for performing (9-12%!) and non-performing notes (20%+!). Learn about Investment-to-Value (ITV), Unpaid Principal Balance (UPB), and how to calculate your true return so you're not paying too much for the paper.Due Diligence Decoded (Without Owning the House!): Master the art of checking property condition (BPOs!), title (O&E reports!), and borrower payment history (servicing notes!). Plus, the absolute non-negotiables: collateral files and an unbroken chain of assignments – essential to avoid a "dud" deal.Operations & Management: Who Ya Gonna Call? (Not the Borrower!): Understand why you never call the borrower yourself (it's illegal, buddy!). Learn how servicers manage payments, what happens if a borrower stops paying (loan modifications, cash for keys, foreclosure!), and who's really on the hook for property taxes.Funding Your Future: IRAs & Beyond: Discover how Self-Directed IRAs are a game-changer for note investors, allowing tax-free or deferred growth. Learn about "cash for keys" as a smart exit strategy to avoid costly foreclosures, and why a clear plan beats wishful thinking every time.Whether you're a seasoned pro or just dipping your toes into the "paper investing" world, these 20 FAQs are fundamental. Don't be that person who learns the hard way because they didn't ask. Take action, get educated, and start acting like the bank. Because in the note world, being smart with your debt can make you a whole lot of dough!Want to learn more?

Most people agree that learning, knowing, and applying the Bible is important, but it is can also be challenging. Few people believe they know enough of the Bible or that they really understand it as well as they could (or should). In this episode, Craig shares a few tips for learning and applying God's word. Hint: it is not magic, and it does require some work, but you can do it!

Al Lewis, who writes Business Blunders on Substack, explains why big companies make big mistakes (Hint: it's money). We'll explore why your money problems may call for a financial therapist, and not just an adviser. Also, we ask Chris Sands of Johns Hopkins University what could happen if the U.S. Supreme Court rules that Trump's tariffs are illegal.

In this Special Brief edition of The Wright Report, Bryan answers listener questions on ICE training standards, self-deportation incentives, birthright citizenship abuses, and the massive fraud cases unfolding in Minnesota and beyond. He explains why claims that ICE officers are poorly trained are misleading, breaks down the cost-benefit math behind paying illegal aliens to self-deport, and exposes how birth tourism has allowed foreign nationals to exploit American citizenship and voting rights. Bryan also offers a candid assessment of why arrests in Minnesota are slow, pointing to internal resistance within the DOJ and FBI, and urges patience as federal authorities work through what he calls industrial-scale corruption. The episode then turns global, with Bryan unpacking the emerging U.S.-Greenland framework, critiquing Europe's political, cultural, and energy weakness, and offering rare insight into how President Trump thinks and negotiates. Drawing a historical parallel to President James Polk, Bryan explains why Trump's aggressive style may be deliberate and effective, even when it unsettles allies.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: January 22 2026 Wright Report, ICE training facts DHS, self-deportation incentive cost savings, birthright citizenship birth tourism China, Minnesota fraud DOJ FBI resistance, Pam Bondi Kash Patel investigations, Greenland U.S. military framework, Europe energy weakness NATO critique, Trump leadership style James Polk, Peace Board Davos reactions

Did Trump embarrass America at Davos — or did he do exactly what world leaders fear most?

Have you ever listened to someone pray and thought, Well… I’ll never sound like that? In this encouraging, laugh-a-little-and-breathe-a-lot conversation, I sit down with author and speaker Shellie Tomlinson to talk about the comparison trap in prayer—and how to get free from it. Shellie shares why God isn’t looking for “perfect prayers” or spiritual clones. He wants you. We unpack simple, practical habits that help you linger with God, stop quitting when your mind wanders, and remember that prayer isn’t the goal—a deeper relationship with Jesus is. Shellie shares one simple reminder about approaching God in prayer that I’m sure I’ll never forget. You don’t want to miss it!

No matter your level of expertise, years in your industry, or depth of knowledge — if you're not able to present that content with confidence and PRESENCE… you're quietly holding your business back. How we present ourselves and our businesses is just as important as the actual value we provide. So how can you ensure you're showing up ready to make the greatest possible impact with your presence? And how can you do this while remaining authentic and true to yourself? That's exactly what Anne Maree Wilshire and I are discussing on this episode of the HerBusiness Podcast. Anne Maree, founder of Vibrant Voices, is an expert on voice, presence, and presentation—and today she's sharing the secrets to speaking with impact, confidence, and presence as a small-business owner. Here's What You'll Discover on This Episode:  What "presence" really means in a business context (and why it creates trust and authority!). The 3 biggest internal barriers that prevent your message from landing – and how to recognise them fast. Why old belief systems about being 'appropriate' hold us back from saying what we truly want (and prevent us from attracting people who agree!) The #1 blindspot entrepreneurs have when preparing for presentations, keynotes, podcasts, or any speaking event (Hint – it's NOT the quality of your notes!). The professional masks you might be putting up that actually create a disconnect with your clients (You might not even realise you're doing this!) How to make your audience understand – and resonate with! – your message, without feeling like you're overexplaining or rushing. Why confidence is never something you can wait for, and the ONE thing you can do to actually create it. Exactly what to prepare before speaking so you can stay grounded (and more importantly – connected to your topic, audience, and passion). What conviction and courage really look like, and how to access them in high-pressure situations. Why presence matters to you and your brand, and how to cultivate that presence to attract more clients, bring in opportunities, and open doors for yourself.

What do great visual effects actually look like? Hint: you're not supposed to notice them. In this episode, we sit down with Eran Dinur, VFX Supervisor on MARTY SUPREME, to break down how modern visual effects are designed to disappear into story, performance, and cinematography. From subtle enhancements to large-scale problem solving, Eran reveals how VFX can elevate a film without ever calling attention to itself. We dive into the creative and technical challenges of supervising VFX and how to collaborate with directors and cinematographers. Whether you're an indie filmmaker, editor, or director working with limited resources, this conversation will change how you think about visual effects. If you think VFX is only about spectacle, this episode will prove why restraint, planning, and storytelling matter more than explosions.

From the wheel to the iPhone, every generation has declared "we live in amazing times." And they were right. But here's what most sellers miss: the advantage was never the technology itself. It was recognizing when the game changed.   In this Coaches Corner, Brian introduces a concept that reframes everything: constraint migration. The bottleneck that defined your business last year? It's already been solved. The grind that made you successful? It's now holding you back.   Brian and Robin Joy unpack why "sourcing is solved," what the new constraint actually is, and a quote from futurist Alvin Toffler that explains why some sellers will thrive while others get left behind. Hint: it has nothing to do with reading and writing.   If you're working harder but not getting further, this episode tells you exactly why. And what to do instead.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "What is the inform act and how scary is it?

Most CEOs don't fail because they aim too low. They burn out because they keep setting bigger goals on top of broken systems. In this episode of the WholeCEO Podcast, Lisa Goldenthal breaks down why ambition without infrastructure leads to exhaustion — and what elite leaders are doing differently as they prepare for 2026. In this conversation, you'll discover:

On the eve of the NFL playoffs, Mike Quigley announces he plans to run for mayor of Chicago while rooting for Green Bay to beat the Bears. Ben riffs. George and Alejandro Verdin—uncle and nephew—welcome Ben to Boyle Heights in East Los Angeles. Where they sit at a back table in the El Tepeyac Cafe and talk all things politics. Including the rise of L.A.'s Chicano movement, the ICE invasion, and who is the godfather of Hispanic politics in Los Angeles. Hint, it's not George, despite what Ben insists. Alejandro is a political consultant and founder of the Nineteen Sixty Campaigns. George is an immigration lawyer.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you've ever struggled with fat loss (and let's face it, most of us have) it could be that you are following the wrong rules. In this episode, I'm sharing the real rules of fat loss, 10 principles most people skip while chasing trends, quick fixes, and “what worked for her” on Instagram. We'll cover what actually drives sustainable results: consistent fundamentals, realistic timelines, and data-driven decision making -not perfection, punishment, or white-knuckling.We'll also get honest about why many women reach the end of a diet and still feel underwhelmed with their physique, and why the answer is often muscle, not more restriction. I'll walk you through the mindset shifts that keep people consistent: building confidence through action, treating dieting like skill development, and dropping the self-hate that quietly fuels burnout and rebound.This episode is a reset button for anyone tired of starting over, and ready to build fat loss results that actually last.www.revivewellness.health______________________________________________________________Join me on the 'gram!

We're already mid-January. Goals have been set. Maybe you wrote down "recover this year" or "heal my relationship with food" or "finally find freedom." But here's what I need you to hear: Setting the goal isn't the problem. How you're approaching it is. I was listening to a Tony Robbins podcast recently, and he said something that stopped me in my tracks: The reason why people don't get the results they're after is because they approach it all wrong. Most people start with the strategy—looking for the perfect plan, the magic formula, the one thing that's going to solve everything. And when that strategy doesn't work, they think they failed. But the truth is, the strategy was never the problem. It's that they started in the wrong place. This is SO true in eating disorder recovery. People come to me all the time asking, "Lindsey, what's THE strategy? What did YOU do to recover? Just tell me the steps and I'll do it." And here's what I have to tell them: There are multiple ways of getting to recovery. No one way is THE way. And anyone who tells you there is only one way? Run from them. In this episode, I'm introducing you to the 3B Framework—Being, Belief, and Blueprint—the exact approach I use with my private clients that actually gets lasting results. Because sis, the strategy isn't the first step. It's actually the LAST step. And that's why you've been stuck. In this episode, you'll discover: Why starting with strategy is keeping you stuck in the recovery cycle The 3B Framework: Being, Belief, and Blueprint (and why the order matters) Why anyone promising "one proven way" to recover is lying to you The real reason my clients see lasting transformation (it's not the meal plan) My personal figure skating story and how old beliefs kept me trapped for years The moment at the ice rink that showed me I was finally free Why the patterns and behaviors won't change long-lasting if the soul work isn't met How to identify the story you've been telling yourself that's keeping you stuck Practical homework to excavate your core beliefs and rewrite your narrative If you keep doing what you've always done, you're going to keep getting what you've always gotten. And I'm guessing you're tired of being stuck. So let's change the approach. Let's do this differently. Let's actually get you FREE. KEY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE

Hey Heal Squad!  Have you ever felt like you lost your mojo at some point along the way? Yeah,  it happens to all of us… even Maria. In fact, Maria didn't even realize she had lost hers until she started finding it again. Today, Maria gets deep about how she found her mojo after nearly a decade of doggy-paddling through life and health challenges. Ya know,  those seasons where things feel like they're finally going right, and then suddenly - Boom! Crash! Sound familiar? But Maria has finally said buh-bye to that and shares what's helping the pendulum finally swing the other way. Hint, Hint: It didn't come from just one thing, rather six! From supporting her body, to creating dedicated space in her home, and  building systems that remind her what matters most. And this isn't in a perfection-driven way, but in a progressive, flexible, grace-giving way! Just like Maria tells her daughter Athena: when you fall, what do you do? You get back up!  And sometimes, the very hardships that knock us down are the ones that catapult us into our next level and help us find our mojo again! Enjoy!

Share your experience with us. ABOUT THIS VIDEO:When a woman tests you, she isn't asking you to perform.What she wants to know is: are you genuine? Or is there more going on beneath the surface that she can't see? Women love to have fun—but trying to figure out whether your interest in her is real, or whether you're just engaging her for a quick ego boost before disappearing, is not a game she wants to play.It often surprises men how accepting women are of desires the men themselves have difficulty accepting. It's not what you want that turns her off. It's the fact that it scares you. Today's episode explores what it means to be trustworthy—and the different flavors desire can take when it's honestly expressed.#zanperrion #fearofintimacy #dating #mendating #flirting #datingadviceformen #flirttips #relationship #jealousy ____________________________________________________Read The Full Amorati Guild Invitation → https://arsamorata.com/guild/____________________________________Need a gunslinger?

We humans seem to love comeback stories, and there is no comeback quite as compelling in the classical music world as Rachmaninoff's Second Piano Concerto. It was written three years after the disastrous premiere of his First Symphony, a premiere so catastrophic that it lives on in the annals of musical history, and is the essential starting point for understanding the Second Piano Concerto and how it came to be. The concerto revived both Rachmaninoff's career and his spirits, and it remains his most famous orchestral work. It is a towering masterpiece of Romanticism, overflowing with glorious melody after glorious melody, supported by virtuosic and sumptuous writing for the solo piano, and a deeply satisfying orchestral part that continues to make audiences swoon around the world. Today on the show, we'll begin with the story of Rachmaninoff's First Symphony, and then walk through this extraordinary concerto, highlighting what truly makes Rachmaninoff's music so special. Hint: it's not just the pretty melodies. Recording: Vladimir Ashkenazy with the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra, Kirill Kondrashin cond.

Synopsis:  In conversation with Laura Flanders, ecologist and activist Professor Robin Wall Kimmerer discusses how embracing ecological grief can be a powerful catalyst for change in restoring balance between humans and the Earth they inhabit.Make a tax deductible YEAR END DONATION and become a member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate. This show is made possible by you! Description:  When was the last time you listened to the plants? Plant ecologist Robin Wall Kimmerer, a self-proclaimed “student of the plants,” has dedicated her life to helping people of all ages understand the symbiotic relationship between humans and nature. Her latest initiative “Plant Baby Plant” does exactly that, by mobilizing communities to restore plants while building collective power for the Earth. Kimmerer is a distinguished professor, MacArthur Fellow, mother and an enrolled member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation. Her 2013 book “Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants” emerged as a surprise bestseller with almost three million copies sold across 20 languages. In this enlightening episode, Robin Wall Kimmerer and Laura Flanders explore how nature can inform our language, our economy, our movements and more. As you'll hear, our survival depends on it. Plus, a commentary from Laura on what it took to separate people from nature. Hint: it wasn't peaceful.“I think it is so important that we embrace ecological grief rather than look away . . . When we recognize that pain we feel for our relationships with the natural world is also the measure of our love for the living world. It's that love which is mirrored in the grief that makes you get back up and say, ‘Not on my watch.'” - Robin Wall Kimmerer“. . . We have to kind of decolonize our minds from this industrial revolution concept that the Earth belongs to us as a source of nothing more than belongings, natural resources that are our property . . . There is this notion in many Indigenous worldviews that human beings play a critical role in maintaining balance, that the way we take from the living world can actually be regenerative.” - Robin Wall KimmererGuest:  Robin Wall Kimmerer: Plant Ecologist, Writer, Professor; Founder, Plant Baby Plant; Author, Braiding Sweetgrass*Recommended book:Bookshop: “The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World” by Robin Wall Kimmerer: Get the book*  And to accompany the book:(*Bookshop is an online bookstore with a mission to financially support local, independent bookstores.

I used to work 70 hours a week. Grinding to make 30-40K/ month. I used to wonder how I'd ever have a family AND the life that I wanted. In the 3-4 years before having my son… I figured it out. I was able to scale from 40K to 140K/month and I went from working 70 hours a week in that business to 4 hours a week in that business. Delegation and leadership played a part but the BIGGEST difference was learning how to increase LTV of every single client that came into my coaching (so I could work with LESS clients and make MORE money) and that's what I want to talk to you about today.  We'll talk about what LTV actually looks like, what you need before you start running ads, how to not make the same mistake I made that costs me 6 figures, and more!   Time Stamps:   (0:45) 70 Hours A Week When I First Started (2:07) Increasing LTV (5:25) Upcoming January 4th Workshop (5:50) The Mistake That Costed Me Multiple 6 Figures (10:57) The Backend Offer (12:05) LTV and Ads (12:50) Your Offer (13:59) My Maturity Leave ----------

Retiring after age 65 changes the math and the priorities. You have fewer high-energy years, shorter tax planning windows, and RMDs much closer than most people realize. But you also often have higher Social Security, clearer spending needs, and more flexibility if the plan is built the right way. This episode breaks down how retirement strategy shifts when you retire later. Traditional withdrawal rules are built for 30–40 year retirements. If your timeline is closer to 10–20 years, blindly following those rules can lead to significant underspending and missed opportunities in your healthiest years.Tax strategy becomes more compressed. Roth conversion windows are shorter. Medicare premiums and IRMAA surcharges matter more. Required minimum distributions arrive faster. Planning mistakes are harder to unwind, which makes coordination between income, investments, and taxes far more important.Market risk looks different too. Higher Social Security and other income sources can reduce pressure on your portfolio, even though recovery time after downturns is shorter. The goal is not extreme conservatism. It is matching investments to real cash-flow needs while protecting against inflation and future healthcare costs.The episode also covers survivor planning, charitable giving strategies like QCDs, Medicare surcharge planning, and why prioritizing health becomes one of the highest-return investments you can make when retiring later.Retiring after 65 is not a disadvantage. It simply requires a different plan, tighter execution, and more intentional use of the years that matter most.-Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

Does this holiday season feel heavier than it should? Are emotions feeling closer to the surface, leaving you exhausted, anxious, or unsteady without knowing why? What if this isn't just "holiday stress," but a massive energetic transition that is literally dissolving your past? Michael welcomes back Jim Self, spiritual teacher and co-founder of Mastering Alchemy, to explain exactly what is happening beneath the surface of this overwhelming time. Jim reveals the shocking truth: We are in the middle of a massive transition from a third-dimensional state of reaction and duality into a new state of Wellbeing.  This isn't just about coping; this is about understanding that you cannot take your "baggage" with you where we are going. Discover why linear time is dissolving, how the "monster under the bed" is actually just an old towel, and the specific tools you need to dissolve the shadows before they bite. Key Topics: Moving out of the 3rd dimension (reaction, duality, linear time) and why it feels so "choppy" right now. The Baggage Rule: Why you cannot take your old wounds and beliefs ("baggage") with you into the new frequency. A simple, powerful visualization to instantly explode negative thoughts and remove unfinished emotions from your space.
