This week's featured story comes from The Willowbee Tree collection. It's called "Being Yourself." It is summertime, and the Willowbee children are enjoying a visit from their cousins. Piper and Little Ty love how their cousins like to play rowdy, noisy games, but Clancy does not. He tries to be more like the others, but it is difficult and tiring. When the willow tree takes him to the Galapagos Islands and introduces him to the many strange and unique animals there, Clancy learns the value of being himself.

We also hear from Craig refuting those claims. Plus, the Knicks notch another win and we end the hour with talk about Frank Reich and who he might consider QB candidates for the Jets.

My guest today is Ben Horowitz, the co-founder of Andreessen Horowitz. Since its founding in 2009, a16z has grown into one of the most influential firms in venture capital, reshaping how technology companies are funded and how power and ideas move through Silicon Valley and around the world. This conversation focuses on sides of Ben's story you don't often hear. Ben reflects on the people who shaped him, including Nas, Andy Grove, and his father, and shares why he chose to personally fund new technology for the Las Vegas Police Department. We also talk about how he thinks about a16z's responsibility in shaping the trajectory of America, the scale of his ambition for the firm, and what he sees as the biggest risk facing the country.

After a loud, full, and surprisingly joyful work trip to New York, I'm unpacking what it actually means to feel aligned, even when calendars and to-do lists feel overwhelming. From building things I genuinely love, to unlearning rigid ideas about productivity, to navigating parenthood, partnership, creative work, and big to small life moments, this episode is a good ol' rambling check-in. A reminder that not all work looks neat, not all interests need a plan, and sometimes the best things come from simply following what feels fun. This episode is brought to you by Amazon Pharmacy.

The difference between agroecology and regenerative agriculture is the deep social change we need in the food and agriculture system. As Laura Ortiz Montemayor told us once "ecology without social justice is just gardening". Million Belay, who leads the Alliance for Food Sovereignty in Africa, the largest social movement on the African continent, is very clear stop intervening with agriculture on the continent, stop imposing all kinds of rules, practices, seeds, inputs etc, which don't serve in this context (and we could argue in the context we come from as well, how many European banned pesticides are exported to the continent?)We talk about the shut down of the USAID which was actually a good shock to the system. And finally donors, which unfortunately dictate quite a bit the direction, are talking and slowly also acting around agroecology. We discuss how through lobbying they managed to get many countries to adopt agroecology policies in the last few years, what Million would do with a billion dollar and what his message for investors is.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

You might think that when you sit down to write a book, you use mostly your brain, your intellect, or your thoughts to concoct the perfect argument, the most interesting story. I believe there’s more to it than that. I’ve written 14 books and helped hundreds of authors write, edit and publish their works and I’ve witnessed an invisible and inexplicable x factor responsible not only for bringing the idea to you, but also for growing that idea to fruition. While I don’t know how to name this “x factor” or to define it, I have experienced it again and again and can’t imagine writing a book without it. If you have a book you’re meant to write, maybe you don’t need to be “smart enough” or “good enough” to make it happen. Maybe all you need is to listen closely to what this “x factor” is trying to say.

Today we dive into Part 2 of my conversation with Tara Lafon Gooch — an episode centered on what it really means to rewire your brain. This isn't just positive thinking. It's restructuring your mindset, reshaping your beliefs, and building a stronger foundation for your leadership and your life. Tara brings us back to the starting point of the GRASP Method: Gratitude. Gratitude isn't soft — it's hardwiring. It forms new beliefs, and when you form new beliefs, the old lies lose their power. From there comes Responsibility, the essence of self leadership. As Tara says, “You can't lead a team of many if you can't lead a team of one.” It starts with us. No victim mindset. No excuses. Own your choices, and you begin to transform your future. Then comes Action — the step none of us can skip. Tara reminds us: “An ounce of doing is worth more than a pound of theorizing.” Ideas don't change your life. Action does. “Hopes and dreams,” as I said — and Tara added, “Castles built with sand” — can only stand when you build on responsibility and intention. We also dig into vision and purpose. You can't know your purpose if you can't see where you're going. Too many of us live in the rearview mirror, replaying what already happened. Tara says it perfectly: you can't drive 70 mph while looking backwards. Your power as a leader is in the next step you take, not the step you regret. We talk about forgiveness, too — why we hold onto hurt to feel in control, and why real control actually comes from letting go. And Tara shares her own transformation — hitting rock bottom, surrendering, and finally hearing gratitude in a way that changed everything. “When the student is ready, the teacher appears.” And from that moment, she was never the same. Finally, Tara gives us a glimpse into her daily grounding: prayer, gratitude, Scripture, protecting her mind from comparison, and choosing family over scrolling. Small habits — 1% a day — that create long term transformation. This conversation will challenge and encourage you. It's about rewiring your thinking, reclaiming your power as a leader, and choosing the reality you want to build. Let's jump in.

Francis Schaeffer said, "Ideas have consequences." If people believe false ideas, they inevitably act on them in disastrous ways. The only solution to such false ideas is to replace them with the truth. Theology and doctrine matter. In this series, we will work through essential doctrines for followers of Jesus to understand as they strive to follow Jesus. This week, we unpack the Doctrine of Eternity and the final judgment from Matthew 25. Text: Matthew 25:31-46 ESV Speaker: Michael Bayne

You've pinned all the beautiful ideas, saved all the inspiration, and yet… your room still feels stuck. Sound familiar? Here's the truth: ideas alone won't finish your home. What really keeps your spaces incomplete is unmade decisions, scattered priorities, and overwhelm that makes even small choices feel impossible. In this episode, I break down why inspiration and ideas aren't enough and what's really standing between you and a home you love: How ideas don't come with an order or a plan. Why budget pacing matters—and how skipping steps can sabotage your progress. The hidden toll of decision fatigue and second-guessing. How to know when to stop, skip, or wait so your room actually feels finished. The first steps to get from inspiration to action, without wasting money or time. If you've ever felt stuck in your home, unsure what to do next, or overwhelmed by all the choices in front of you, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and a roadmap for moving forward. Takeaway: Ideas are just the beginning. Real progress happens when you decide what matters most and take action with confidence. If this episode resonates… If you're realizing that Pinterest, Instagram, and inspiration alone aren't helping you move forward, I have a free training that walks you through how to identify your design style with intention — and how to use inspiration without adding more overwhelm. It's a short, practical video that shows you how to filter ideas, trust your instincts, and start making decisions with confidence.

Inflation in Canada has stabilized, but food inflation is continuing to rise. Food prices rose 5 per cent in 2025, and some items saw much larger increases – such as beef and coffee. Prime Minister Mark Carney announced some affordability measures this week – like an increase to the GST credit – aimed at lowering grocery bills.Today, food economist Mike von Massow explains why food prices remain so high, what's driving the increase of specific items and what can be done about it.Questions?

Brother Eric Richards teaches Institute and Seminary in the Utah North Area, is a member of the Veritas society, a contributing author for the Patheos project, and a member of the International Writers and Editors Association. He has served in several Bishoprics, twice on High Councils, in the Stake Presidency, and now serves as a Bishop. For five years, Brother Richards and his team wrote the Online Seminary Curriculum. He presents at BYU and BYU-Idaho Education Week and is the author of Preparing for the Second Coming, Come Follow Me: Words of the Week, and was a contributing author for Deseret Book's “Hear Him” project. He's a certified Neuroscience Coach, and a great pickleball player in his free time. Brother Richards grew up attending the Mountain View Baptist Church in San Diego before missionaries baptized him and his mom. He served a mission in Honduras, and his son later served in the same mission. He first moved to Utah after meeting his future wife at EFY, and taught Seminary and played water polo and volleyball for Utah State University. They have been married for 27 years. Most of all, he loves teaching and being with valiant Christians around the world.

This conversation moves beyond administrative duties to explore practical frameworks for empowering members, delivering difficult counsel, and fostering a revelation-driven ward culture. 00:02:37 – Eric Richards’s Background and Experience 00:06:05 – Core Messages and Focus on Jesus Christ 00:07:42 – Approaching Leadership and Interviews 00:12:21 – The Importance of the Bishop’s Helpline 00:13:05 – Interview Techniques for Revelation 00:20:03 – The Role of Hope in Leadership 00:24:11 – Addressing Pornography in Ministering Interviews 00:30:51 – Supporting Speakers and Teachers in Sacrament Meetings 00:35:07 – Encouraging Discussion in Sunday School 00:39:26 – Inspired Counsel on Callings 00:45:12 – The Bishop’s Prayer List and Personal Ministry 00:46:33 – Ministering Interviews and Strengthening Faith Key Insights Connecting to Christ: All leadership efforts should ultimately prioritize helping individuals develop a personal relationship with the Savior rather than simply maintaining organizational functions. Four Levels of Problem Solving: Leaders can empower members by identifying their current “level” of problem-solving: Level 1 (bringing a completed solution), Level 2 (proposing options), Level 3 (sharing findings/research), or Level 4 (simply asking for the answer). The “Hot Sauce” Technique: Delivering difficult correction is most effective when used as a “compliment sandwich,” where hard truths are encased in genuine love to ensure the counsel is “metabolized” rather than rejected. Facilitating Personal Revelation: Leaders should serve as a “Sherpa” or “guide on the side,” asking questions that invite the member to receive their own answers from the Spirit rather than providing them directly. Wellness Baselines: Richards emphasizes checking a member’s physical (sleep, diet, exercise) and spiritual (prayer, scripture, temple) “baselines” to address holistic needs before tackling complex emotional or behavioral issues. Heart-Led Vulnerability: To create safety, leaders should model vulnerability in sacrament meetings and classes, prioritizing personal, “heart-led” experiences over purely informational “head-led” teaching. Leadership Applications Member Empowerment: Instead of solving every problem, a leader can ask a member where they are on the 1–4 problem-solving scale, encouraging them to find and present their own solutions for the leader’s approval. Ward Council Dynamics: Councils are most effective when members “check their ego” and evaluate every proposal through “three hats”: their perspective as an individual, as a friend/neighbor, and through their specific stewardship. Joyful Ward Culture: Leaders can foster a “Church of Joy” by normalizing post-meeting interactions and using specific roles, such as “stenographers” to document the ward’s spiritual history and community connections.

Is there actual tension brewing between Bo Nix and Sean Payton, or is it just a miscommunication blown up into a storyline? The guys react to the “verbal spat” vibes, Payton joking about Nix's medical history, and why that kind of honesty might play with fans but can rub a quarterback the wrong way. Then the conversation turns into pure Jets desperation logic. If there's even a whiff of a QB being unhappy somewhere, Jets fans start drawing up trades on a napkin. Would you take a swing on Bo Nix if the price was somehow reasonable, or is Tiki right that it's pointless without the coach and infrastructure that made him succeed in the first place? The crew debates the fantasy vs. reality, the “we've got nothing to lose” mindset, and why a Denver breakup doesn't automatically mean a New York solution. And then the Knicks get the kind of outside help that changes a season. A new report adds real uncertainty to Jayson Tatum's return outlook, which could swing the East race and reshape what a Celtics matchup looks like in the spring.

The talk about Giannis to the Knicks heats up as the trade deadline inches closer. We also do a little Rangers talk about saying farewell to a long time star.

Hello!  I recorded an episode to let you know what I'm doing to take care of myself and my anxiety right now. These are some of my favorites that I focus on throughout the week, not daily as a "work from home" gal.  I wanted to check in with you to let you know I'm still here and offer ideas to find relief without drinking alcohol.  Here are the daily prompts that I walk you through to practice:  Ask yourself: What do I need less of right now? What do I need more of right now? What can I do for myself right now? What can I let go of for today? You don't need to answer all of them. One is enough. I'm sending you a big hug.    Stay Connected  Please send me an email if you want to say hello or share what you're doing right now to take care of yourself.  Sign up to receive my newsletter in February.    Support Me and My Work  Leave a rating and review on Apple  Buy Me a Coffee    Your support means the world to me.  Thank you for being here.  Peace.       

In the third hour, Marshall Harris and Mark Grote discussed a variety of sports topics in the 5 On It segment. After that, Chicago Sports Network analyst Clay Harbor joined the show to preview the Bears' offseason. Harbor shared why a key player or two could be departing this offseason.

In this episode we answer emails from Gregory, Rick and Graham.  We discuss some more amateur ideas on gold and cash buffers, and modeling managed futures, and we explain why costs and liquidity often matter more than the story you're told. We share tools, back-tests, and resources that help DIY investors build smarter, calmer portfolios.Graham's  "Fall Back" instructions for inputs for Testfolio:  "For example, since you typically use DBMF but would want to back test further, one can write DBMFSIM?FB=KMLMSIM which will use DBMF as far back as it can, then fall back to using KMLM. Did you know these can be chained? One can fallback onto commodities beyond the KMLM simulation, like this: DBMFSIM?FB=KMLMSIM?FB=GSGSIM."Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page:  Donate - Father McKenna CenterVideo on Hedge Fund Market Wizards:  Jack Schwager presents: 15 Hedge Fund Market Wizards trading secrets & insights in their own wordsInfinite Loops Podcast with Cliff Asness:  Surviving the Meme Stock Bubble | Cliff AsnessExcess Returns with Aswath Damodaran:  The Bubble Most Will Get Wrong | Aswath Damodaran on How He Is Investing in a World of AIManaged Futures/Trend Following Paper for Download:  A Century of Evidence on Trend-Following InvestingGraham's Full House Portfolio:  testfol.io/?s=5cyAAHgo1OHBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:What if the biggest edge in your portfolio isn't a hot strategy but the boring details—costs, liquidity, and the ability to rebalance in seconds? We dig into listener questions on gold, long-term treasuries, cash buffers, and managed futures, and we separate evidence from stories that sound good but quietly erode returns. We look at why an 80 percent stocks and 20 percent gold mix can be fine during accumulation, yet struggle in retiree withdrawals when stocks and gold sometimes fall together. Then we explain how duration from long treasuries can change the drawdown math, especially in recessions.We also push back on the temptation to chase yield on vaulted physical gold. Once you add spreads, storage, transaction fees, and redemption friction, that “yield” comes at a cost, and you sacrifice the instant liquidity your rebalancing plan needs. Gold ETFs give you precise position sizing and near-zero friction so you can trim, add, and move on. On cash, we keep it blunt: a small buffer for bills makes sense, but large multi-year cash cushions drag safe withdrawal rates over time. Replenish cash by trimming whichever asset has run hot—simple rules, fewer regrets.For listeners trying to model managed futures, we cover why commodity funds are poor proxies and how to use Testfolio's fallback feature to extend DBMF or KMLM backtests across regimes. The larger message is pragmatic: stop searching for the perfect allocation and build a naively diversified mix that can handle growth, inflation, and shocks without prediction. Want to see how this plays out? Hit play, take notes, and test a small, real-money experiment in a side account to learn your own behavior.If this conversation helped you think more clearly about diversification, costs, and withdrawals, follow the show, leave a quick review, and share it with a friend who's rethinking their portfolio right now.Support the show

Marcell Wilson knows how to game the criminal justice system. He's been charged upwards of 30 times for what he says were “mostly violent crimes" and yet to this day he doesn't have a criminal record. Why? He has money to pay the high fees for a good lawyer. Many scholars and legal commentators agree it's easier for people with wealth to secure favourable legal outcomes — not just in criminal court but in custody disputes, civil litigation, and child protection matters. In a two-part series, IDEAS contributor Mitchell Stuart asks: is a system like that still capable of administering justice? *This episode originally aired on April 19, 2023.

This is deep dive into common misconceptions about red meat, methane emissions from cows, and the feasibility of transitioning to grass-fed beef production. We discuss the health impacts of red meat based on the cow's diet, the actual environmental effects of methane from ruminants, and busts myths surrounding CAFO operations and land use. Cows. Methane. Climate.The debate is louder than ever — and still full of myths.That why, after recording a podcast on why building a $100B home for regenerative brands is key, with Martin Reiter, we went for a Meat MythBusters episode in which we unpack some uncomfortable truths that rarely make it into headlines:

One reason I do this work is I believe all humans deserve to feel safe – but for a lot of us, that's not a reality right now. Across the country, from Minneapolis to Maine, people, including children, are being kidnapped from their homes under the guise of immigration crackdown. So today's episode is about leveraging connection as a form of resistance to protect our neighbors. What can you offer, and how do you present yourself as a safe person?You might think the action ideas in this episode are too small. But resistance doesn't always have to be on the front lines. You can be the neighbor somebody calls in an emergency. You can pay attention and let people who might do harm know you're watching. It all adds up.In this episode you'll hear about:Ideas for how to present yourself as a safe person, from hanging rainbow flags or multilingual signs to simply talking about your values in casual conversationThe truth about numbers: when people who help outnumber those who'd harm, it becomes harder for hateful actors to actWhy not all resistance is viral and the real value in small, everyday connections and actions, particularly when crises hitHow to help, from calling congressional representatives to watching for opportunities in which you can show upResources & LinksListen to Episode 120 where I dive into my political beliefs and Episode 126 about how friendship can be a vehicle for radical change.Like what you hear?

British Columbia's drug decriminalization pilot program will end on January 31st. The controversial program was introduced in 2023, but was criticized by advocates and political opponents alike. Parts of the policy had already been rolled back as public pressure mounted. The pilot's cancellation was met with disappointment, especially from First Nations leaders, over the lack of consultation.

Where do great ideas come from, and why do they always show up in the shower, on a walk, or five minutes after you've stopped trying so hard? Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Neighbor Doug welcome this week's mentor, behavioral scientist George Newman, to unpack how creativity really works and how Stackers can use it to make better decisions with money, careers, and life. This isn't about becoming "more creative" in a woo-woo sense. It's about understanding the conditions that consistently produce better ideas. George explains why your best thinking doesn't come from grinding harder but from combining curiosity, expertise, and space to think. The crew digs into why incremental improvement (the famous "1% better" mindset) often beats chasing giant breakthroughs, and how that approach applies just as well to financial planning as it does to business, habits, or personal growth. You'll also hear why surveying the landscape before acting leads to smarter money moves, how relaxing your brain can unlock solutions you didn't know you had, and why most people already have access to better ideas but don't recognize them yet. Whether you're trying to improve your finances, rethink your career, or simply stop overthinking every decision, this episode gives you a practical framework for generating smarter ideas without burning yourself out. What You'll Learn: Where great ideas are most likely to come from (hint: not when you're stressed) Why expertise plus curiosity beats raw inspiration every time How the 1% better philosophy creates long term breakthroughs The role relaxation plays in clearer thinking and decision making Why surveying your options first leads to better financial outcomes How small experiments like paper trading improve confidence before real world action Why coaching, reflection, and time horizons matter more than quick wins This Episode Is For You If: You feel like you're working harder but not thinking better Your best ideas come when you're NOT trying to force them You're exhausted from grinding and want a smarter approach You want to improve your finances but feel stuck in the same patterns You're ready to stop chasing breakthroughs and start making steady progress Questions to Think About: When do your best ideas usually show up, and what are you doing when they arrive? What's one area of your finances that could improve with a "1% better" mindset? Drop your answers in the comments or the Basement Facebook group because George's framework for generating better ideas might shift how you approach everything.

When clients start asking "What am I paying you for?", most assume they have a pricing problem on their hands when they're actually facing an operations problem. Leah Leaves is the founder and CEO of Alderaan Operations, where she embeds operations directors and part-time digital project managers directly into remote agencies.  In this conversation, she reveals what's happening when clients question an agency's value - asking for more deliverables, questioning reports, or wondering why they can't just use cheap tools themselves. A few things we covered: Why the same operational bottlenecks agencies have always had are now happening at 10x-100x speedThe exact question clients are asking agencies right now (and how the best agencies are answering it)How agencies are reinvesting time saved by AI into client experience, productized tools, and advisory servicesThe "bionic org chart" framework for documenting what AI owns versus what humans ownA practical system for turning meeting transcripts into searchable client context that actually gets usedWhy hiring people who want to stay static in their role is a feature, not a bugThe shift from deliverables-based positioning to strategic marketing partner (and why AI makes this more urgent)Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction: Leah Leaves and the state of agency operations[01:26] Same issues, 10x-100x speed: What's really changing with AI[03:37] The question clients are asking: "What am I paying you for?"[06:38] How agencies are answering the value question differently[11:15] Moving from execution to advisory: Selling thinking, not deliverables[15:30] The art of productive client meetings (and why most fail)[20:45] Hiring strategy: Finding people who want to grow vs. stay static[29:47] The bionic org chart: Documenting AI's role on your team[32:17] Practical AI implementation: Turning meeting notes into searchable knowledge[34:20] Ideas that wouldn't exist without reduced latency[35:29] Where to find Leah and learn more about operationAlderaan Operations - Leah's company embedding ops directors in agenciesLeah Leaves on LinkedIn - Connect with Leah

Evolution with natural selection involves an intricate mix of the random and the driven. Mutations are essentially random, while selection pressures work to prefer certain outcomes over others. There is tremendous divergence of species over time, but also repeated convergence to forms and mechanisms that are unmistakably useful. We see this clearly in eyes and fins, but the basic pattern also holds for brains and forms of social organization. I talk with philosopher Rachell Powell about what these ideas mean for humans, other terrestrial species, and also for forms of life we have not yet encountered.Blog post with transcript: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2026/01/26/342-rachell-powell-on-evolutionary-convergence-morality-and-mind/Support Mindscape on Patreon.Rachell Powell received her Ph.D. in philosophy from Duke University. She is currently a Professor of Philosophy at Boston University. She has held fellowships at the National Humanities Center, the American Council of Learned Societies, the Konrad Lorenz Institute for Evolution and Cognition Research, the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center, the Berlin School of Mind and Brain at Humboldt University, and the Center for Genetic Engineering and Society at North Carolina State University.Boston University web pagePhilPapers publicationsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
