What if your factory was idling, your shelves were empty, and your business had just lost $15 million—and you still chose not to lay off a single person?That's the line Pepper Baumer drew. As the third-generation CEO of Crystal Hot Sauce, he inherited a 100-year-old legacy—and nearly watched it collapse under the weight of supply chain failure, market loss, and generational transition. But instead of shrinking, he stood firm.In this episode, we get into the decision that nearly cost him everything—and why he says it saved the company. Pepper shares why one $100K social media experiment rewired their marketing strategy and how he's introducing a century-old product to an entirely new generation.This one's for operators who believe legacy doesn't mean stuck—and that people come before profit, even when it hurts.To learn more about Crystal Hot Sauce, visit crystalhotsauce.com ____________________________________________________________Free 5-Day Restaurant Marketing Masterclass – This is a live training where you'll learn the exact campaigns Josh has built and tested in real restaurants to attract new guests, increase visit frequency, and generate sales on demand.

In this episode of Command Control Power, the hosts reconnect for a public episode featuring casual banter and professional insights. Discussions range from optimal microphone placement for virtual backgrounds, humorously recounting past advertising endeavors, to moving children into college. The main focus, however, addresses IT and consultancy challenges including issues with ISP connections using Unify, effective marketing strategies, customer experience, generating client reviews, and the impact of AI on IT solutions. The hosts share personal anecdotes and valuable tips for both seasoned consultants and newcomers in the field.   The hosts discuss microphone placement and virtual backgrounds, referencing advice from Justin Esgar. Reflections on physical advertising: subway-style ads, banners at trade shows, flyers on community boards, and the effectiveness of old-school marketing versus digital targeting. Personal stories about getting clients from bulletin board flyers, local fairs, and classified ads. The evolution of client acquisition: from random, local encounters to digital, highly-targeted leads and the importance of being listed in the Apple Consultants Network (ACN) locator. The changing landscape of referrals: Google search, ACN locator, and even ChatGPT as a source of new clients. The role of reviews: how to ask for them, where to post them (Google, Yelp, ACN), and the impact of both positive and negative reviews. Anecdotes about difficult client interactions, especially around technical misunderstandings and device resets. Technical discussion: using Unifi's custom SLA (Service Level Agreement) settings to reduce false internet outage alerts, and the value of tools like Uptime Robot. Brief mention of AI note-taking and its environmental impact, with a plan to discuss this further in a future episode. • • Closing thanks to listeners and patrons, with a reminder about Patreon benefits.

Lumo: https://lumo.ag/Great episode for you today with Devon Wright of Lumo. The Lumo story is really interesting for a number of reasons. One of which is that they have managed to take on venture capital, but still remain very focused on serving a very specific market within agriculture. As you'll hear they have resisted the temptation that has led to the demise of so many agtech companies to try to be for everyone and rapidly expand to as many acres as possible. But Lumo is focused exclusively on wine grapes, and for a long time only wine grapes in the areas of Sonoma and Napa Counties in California. Also, Devon is just an interesting dude. I'll read his bio here to give you a sense of what I'm talking about: Devon Wright is an entrepreneur, investor, and the co-founder and CEO of Lumo, where he and his team are on a mission to massively improve food and freshwater security by giving farmers the best irrigation system in the world. He sold his first startup, a local marketing platform for restaurants, to Yelp in 2017. When he's not helping growers dial in their irrigation precision or providing advice to other early-stage startups, he's spending time with his wife and three young daughters on their little farm, or writing cheesy sci-fi romance.

Mark clarified that “HCL” vs. “hcl” is just a marketing capitalization difference and explained that creatine hydrochloride (HCL) can offer the same benefits with fewer side effects due to its superior bioavailability.Mark shared his science-heavy background (physics, biochemistry, toxicology) and his experience co-founding a forensic toxicology lab. His team built the NFL's steroid testing program, which sparked his interest in safe, legal performance enhancers. After selling the lab, he partnered with sports medicine researchers to find steroid alternatives that could help athletes recover and maintain strength safely. This search led to creatine HCL, which showed strong results for strength, endurance, and recovery without the typical side effects of monohydrate.Bioavailability & Efficiency: Creatine HCL is more easily absorbed due to its chemical structure and compatibility with stomach acid (HCL), allowing smaller doses to deliver more creatine to muscle, brain, and immune cells.Side Effects: Princeton research shows over 50% of men and 75% of women experience bloating and GI distress with monohydrate, which is largely avoided with HCL.Performance Benefits: Faster recovery, increased training capacity, and leaner muscle gains compared to monohydrate.Mark emphasized that creatine supports all cells — not just muscles:Brain health & cognition: Supports energy for thinking and memory.Immune system: T-cells upregulate creatine receptors before attacking pathogens or abnormal cells (e.g., cancer), so adequate creatine helps them “win the fight.”Disease prevention & longevity: The CDC is investigating low creatine levels as a factor in rising chronic disease rates.Mark provided a three-tier approach:Daily Health: 750 mg per day for most people.Exercise / Biohacking: 750 mg per 100 lbs of body weight 30–60 minutes pre-workout (double up on very strenuous days).Medical/Disease States: Higher doses (up to 4–6 g daily) split into multiple servings.He also noted that creatine should be taken daily with no need to cycle off, and extra doses can help with fatigue, poor sleep, or jet lag.Mark stressed that over 90% of creatine is made in China, and quality can vary dramatically. Con-Cret is the only U.S.-made creatine, manufactured in an NSF-certified facility in Nebraska, ensuring purity and safety for athletes who undergo drug testing. Con-Cret holds multiple patents for its creatine HCL technology, further setting it apart.If you're interested in online personal training or being a guest on my podcast, "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," you can reach me at brad@over40fitnesshacks.com or visit my website at:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comAdditionally, check out my Yelp reviews for my local business, Evolve Gym in Huntington Beach, at https://bit.ly/3GCKRzV

The Nightmare of Eveline Shadow was a haunting experience where guests stepped into the nightmarish writings of a horror novelist. They had to navigate a hotel filled with nightmares, while being guided by the narrator's prompts and scripts. The closure of hotels during the pandemic quarantine era created a golden opportunity for a trio of talented creators from the Benelux region. Alexander Gierholz of Logiclocks, Jeroen van Hasselt of Entered, and Meggy Pepelanova came together to create a unique horror experience set in an entire empty wing of a hotel.

They also talk about Eliza's story and what it meant to them rewatching in 2025 with a plot that called out slut-shaming. Plus they discuss the introduction of Freddy and the ending of the first episode (Henry rushing to the hospital! Henry being jealous!).Then they talk about workplace friendships and relationships, how bad Eliza and Henry really are at making meaningful, emotional connections with people who are not each other, why we love Charmonique so much, and the very sweet end to "A Little Yelp From My Friends."Enjoy, all!Our recommended media:Superstore (Peacock)Cirie Fields (Survivor franchise, Big Brother, The Traitors)Follow us on Bluesky, Instagram, and Twitter for more fun content.

Though not widely discussed, EMFs have been classified by the World Health Organization as a Class 2B possible carcinogen and are linked in over 2,000 studies to issues like:DNA damageNeurological disordersSleep disruptionCardiovascular diseaseFertility problemsArthur's background in biology and engineering, plus personal experiences with illness in his family, led him to explore the health risks of EMF exposure and design protective clothing through HAVN.As technology evolves (especially with 5G and 6G), EMF exposure is increasing. Newer tech requires more antennas and emits stronger frequencies, especially in urban areas and smart homes filled with connected devices.Even wearables like fitness trackers (e.g., WHOOP) and cell phones—due to proximity—may be worse offenders than Wi-Fi routers. EMFs are likened to pollution: invisible, everywhere, and cumulative in their effects over time.Arthur emphasizes reducing exposure, especially during sleep (1/3 of your life!), as a powerful first step. His top free or low-cost tips:Put your phone on airplane mode or keep it out of the bedroom at night.Turn off your Wi-Fi router overnight (via timer plug if necessary).Avoid sleeping with wearables like WHOOP or smartwatches.Keep devices off your body when not in use.Use EMF meters (offered by HAVN) to detect high-emission areas in your home.Arthur developed HAVN Clothing (spelled HAVN, removing “EMF” from “haven”) to shield essential organs from EMF without compromising modern life. Their proprietary WaveStopper fabric blocks 99.7% of EMFs (400 MHz–40 GHz) using silver fiber mesh.Available products include:PajamasUnderwearHats and beaniesGaiters for thyroidBlanketsHoodies for travelThese are particularly helpful for people living in apartments or dense urban environments where community EMF exposure is high. For beginners, Arthur recommends starting with headwear, underwear, and sleepwear to protect the most vulnerable organs during sleep.If you're interested in online personal training or being a guest on my podcast, "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," you can reach me at brad@over40fitnesshacks.com or visit my website at:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comAdditionally, check out my Yelp reviews for my local business, Evolve Gym in Huntington Beach, at https://bit.ly/3GCKRzV

In this episode of the Bug Bucks Podcast, Allan welcomes Seth Fenn, the founder of Cura Pest Control and a third-generation pest professional with deep roots in the industry. After starting his career in pest control, Seth stepped away to gain valuable experience in the construction and finance sectors. Those years gave him a unique skill set and perspective that he later brought back into pest control when he launched Cura just six years ago.Since then, Cura has grown into one of Southern California's fastest-growing and most trusted pest control companies. Seth shares the behind-the-scenes story of how he built a strong brand in a competitive market and the role that platforms like Yelp and SEO played in establishing credibility and driving early growth. He also talks about the grind and rewards of building a 55-person door-knocking team, the leadership lessons he's learned along the way, and why staying disciplined with marketing and sales systems is key to scaling.This episode is full of practical takeaways for pest control owners at any stage — whether you're just getting started or looking to take your business to the next level. Seth's journey is proof that combining industry knowledge with outside experience and relentless effort can create powerful results.Check out Cura Pest Here: www.curapest.com

Why do some people rise effortlessly while others go unnoticed? Toby E. Stuart, Leo Helzel Distinguished Professor of Business Administration at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business, joins AJ and Johnny to reveal how social status—not just talent—shapes careers, opportunities, and success. Drawing from decades of research on social networks and status dynamics, Toby explains why recognition compounds like interest, why affiliation often matters more than merit, and how “anointing” can quietly decide who wins in today's winner-take-most world. From Nobel Prizes to Michelin stars to online platforms like Yelp, Stuart uncovers the paradox of prestige: success is as much about who endorses you as what you achieve. He also explores the dark side of status—scams, pressure to maintain it, and the loneliness of reaching the top. If you've ever felt overlooked despite strong results, this episode exposes the hidden rules of the status game and how to finally play it smarter. What to Listen For [00:00:00] Why affiliation and endorsements boost status more than raw merit [00:01:17] The Matthew Effect: small early wins snowball into long-term success [00:03:14] How identity shapes evaluation—Lord Rayleigh's “voodoo science” story [00:06:05] Achieved vs. ascribed status and why both determine outcomes [00:08:32] Algorithms as modern gatekeepers of status [00:13:16] Why “anointers” now include platforms like Instagram, LinkedIn, and Yelp [00:17:26] How status transfers through networks like kinetic energy [00:23:25] The rise (and risk) of gaming the status system [00:27:42] The hamster wheel of high status: pressure, scrutiny, and imposter syndrome [00:33:42] Why authentic friendships become harder at the top [00:40:29] The future of status in the age of AI and algorithms A Word From Our Sponsors Stop being over looked and unlock your X-Factor today at ⁠unlockyourxfactor.com⁠  The very qualities that make you exceptional in your field are working against you socially.  Visit the ⁠artofcharm.com/intel ⁠for a social intelligence assessment and discover exactly what's holding you back.
