Boin frames their eventual conflict as a clash between established power and ambitious newcomers. NUMBER 13

As we head into 2026, independent pharmacies are facing a hard reset in how healthcare is regulated, marketed, and delivered. From tightening scrutiny around tracking and consumer health data to rising patient expectations for speed, transparency, and convenience, the rules of engagement are changing fast—and pharmacies that don't adapt risk falling behind.In this episode of the DrMarketingTips Show – Independent Pharmacy Edition, we break down the forces shaping the year ahead and what they mean for independent pharmacy owners and operators. This conversation focuses on the practical realities of privacy, patient access, logistics, and trust—and how these shifts create both risk and opportunity for pharmacies navigating an increasingly consumer-driven healthcare environment.

"Create the things you wish existed." What happens when a little girl obsessed with animals grows up, faces down fear, and builds a vet clinic on a dream? In this episode, Beth Barrett shares her story of grit, independence, and what it really means to live in alignment with your values. This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world. In This Episode In this episode, Michael Dargie talks with veterinarian and entrepreneur Beth Barrett about her decades-long career, her passion for animals, and the power of doing hard things. From her clinic just outside Calgary, Alberta, Beth shares what it took to build her dream practice—complete with an indoor dog arena, a fancy chicken coop, and the best damn surgery suite this side of anywhere. Beth knew she wanted to be a vet since she was a kid, and she never looked back. But the path wasn't without its setbacks. After a serious horseback riding accident, she had to decide whether to quit or face her fears. She chose to ride again. That decision changed her. She and Michael talk about everything from the corporatization of veterinary care, to why tired dogs are good dogs, to Stoic philosophy and dried mango. Beth opens up about the joys of riding, training, and how teaching dogs stretches their bodies and their minds. Her message to rebels in waiting: do hard things. That's where the growth is. Quotable Quotes "Create the things you wish existed." "A tired dog is a good dog." "The growth I've experienced in life has come at those hard spots." "Doing hard things will make you extraordinary." "You don't get stronger when things are cushy." Episode Highlights Becoming a Vet | From childhood dream to lifelong career. The Power of Vision | Turning a horse farm into a full-service clinic. Private vs. Corporate | Why independence matters in vet med. Doing Hard Things | How fear almost kept her out of the saddle. Training for Health | Dog yoga, strength, and stretching. Riding for Joy | The magic of working equitation. Dog Park & Arena | Why tired dogs are good dogs. Fill Your Bucket | What Beth does to recharge. Favourite Place | Cycling and hiking in the Tonto Preserve. Favourite Season | Autumn, and what it teaches us. Rebel Advice | Do the hard thing.

Is white supremacy moving back into the center of American political power? This video breaks down how Vice President JD Vance is positioning himself as the heir to the post-Trump Republican Party—and why his rhetoric, alliances, and refusal to condemn extremists signal a dangerous shift in U.S. leadership. Using recent events at Turning Point USA, Vance's public statements about race, religion, and “heritage Americans,” and the growing influence of openly extremist voices on the right, this essay examines how exclusionary ideologies are being repackaged as patriotism and “big tent” conservatism. It also explores the internal fractures within the GOP, the appeal of these ideas to younger voters, and why attempts to accommodate white nationalism inevitably undermine democracy itself. This is not just a partisan debate—it's a warning about what happens when leaders blur the line between political strategy and racial extremism. Independent media has never been more important.

The Newsmongers unfolds the seedy history of tabloid journalism, from the first printed ‘Strange Newes' sheets of the sixteenth century to the sensationalism of today's digital age. The narrative weaves from Regency gossip writers through New York's ‘yellow journalism' battles to the ‘sex and sleaze' Sun of the 1970s; and from the Brexit-backing populism of the Daily Mail to the celebrity-obsessed Mail Online of the 2000s. Colourful figures such as Daniel Defoe, Lord Northcliffe, Hugh Cudlipp, Rupert Murdoch and Robert Maxwell are brought to vivid life. From scandalous confessions to the Leveson Inquiry, the book explores journalists' unscrupulous methods, taking in phone hacking, privacy breaches and bribery. In the digital era, popular journalism succumbed to ‘churnalism' while a certain royal is seeking revenge on the tabloids today. Terry Kirby is Senior Lecturer in Journalism at Goldsmiths, University of London, and author of The Trials of the Baroness (1991). He has been a journalist for more than four decades and was a founder member of staff at The Independent, where he worked for more than twenty years in a number of roles, including crime correspondent, night editor and chief reporter Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

Johannes Vermeer is one of the greatest painters in history, yet the man himself remains an enigma. But have we finally solved the mystery of one of his most famous paintings? On this episode we're joined by Andrew Graham-Dixon, one of Britain's best known art historians. In his new book Vermeer: A Life Lost and Found, he sets out a radical reappraisal of Vermeer's life, beliefs and the meaning of his paintings. He shows us an artist immersed in the religious debates of the Dutch Republic in the 17th Century, and argues that this atmosphere is key to understanding Vermeer, the man and his work.   In conversation with Hannah Kaye, Graham-Dixon also shares his illuminating new interpretation of The Girl with the Pearl Earring. Graham-Dixon is one of the leading art critics and arts television presenters in the English-speaking world. He has presented numerous landmark series on art for the BBC and other broadcasters, and has a distinguished record of public service in the visual arts.  For over twenty years, he published a weekly art column – first as Chief Art Critic for The Independent, and later for The Sunday Telegraph.  If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

​Attorney General Pam Bondi's recent announcement of releasing additional files related to Jeffrey Epstein has been met with skepticism, particularly following the underwhelming "Phase 1" release. The initial batch, which Bondi had hyped as containing "sick" revelations, primarily consisted of previously available flight logs and heavily redacted documents, offering little new information. This anticlimactic disclosure led to disappointment among the public and conservative influencers, who had anticipated more substantial revelations. Critics argue that the fanfare surrounding the release was disproportionate to its actual content, raising questions about the transparency and intentions behind these actions.In response to the backlash, Bondi has assured the public that more comprehensive documents will be forthcoming, blaming the initial shortcomings on the FBI's alleged withholding of thousands of pages. She has demanded that these documents be delivered to her office promptly, emphasizing a commitment to full transparency. However, given the previous overpromising and underdelivering, many remain skeptical about the authenticity and potential impact of the upcoming releases.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsoruce:Attorney General Pam Bondi insists more Jeffrey Epstein files are being released – despite disastrous ‘phase 1' | The Independent

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” — African proverbIn today's episode, "Here's an Uncomfortable Idea: Want More Success? Be Less Independent," host Jacquette offers candid and vulnerable insight into why fierce independence may actually be holding you back.She challenges the myth that success is a solo pursuit, urging listeners to lean into interdependence instead. Nothing thrives in isolation—not even nature. True growth comes from collaboration, delegation, and the sharing of wisdom. If you want to succeed in money, business, and life, embrace the people and resources that fuel your journey. Independence has its place, but when paired with interdependence, it becomes a force strong enough to overcome even the toughest obstacles.For Clarity: https://www.jacquettetimmons.com/1-1-coaching www.jacquettetimmons.comwww.jacquettetimmons.com/digital-productswww.instagram.com/jacquettemtimmonsBuyMeACoffee.com/JacquetteSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today's Headlines: Trump escalated toward open conflict with Venezuela by labeling the country a “foreign terrorist organization,” blockading sanctioned oil tankers, and laying groundwork that looks a lot like a path to war — even as U.S. oil companies quietly signal they're not interested in going back. Abroad, Britain's MI6 chief warned that tech billionaires and algorithms are reshaping global power faster than politicians, while Putin doubled down on threatening Ukraine with either invasion or “negotiation,” plus some nuclear saber-rattling for flair. Back home, Trump expanded his travel ban, House Republicans briefly rebelled to pass a doomed healthcare bill, and Jack Smith told Congress he found proof Trump tried to overturn the 2020 election and obstruct justice. The FCC chair openly claimed the agency isn't independent from the president — then removed the word “independent” from its website mid-hearing — as the Senate confirmed Elon Musk's friend to run NASA. Meanwhile, Dan Bongino announced he's quitting the FBI, Alan Dershowitz floated a very “it depends” take on a third Trump term, Ghislaine Maxwell moved to toss her conviction, and the DOJ is legally required to release the Epstein files tomorrow. On the crime front, the Brown University shooter is still at large, an MIT professor's killing is now a homicide investigation, Nick Reiner appeared in court for his parents' murders, and — in truly end-times energy — the Oscars are leaving ABC for YouTube.

Will Jones, editor-in-chief, hosts the discussion and is joined by Olivia Overman, content editor, and AnneMarie McPherson Spears, news editor.

Plus, the editors share insights on what these trends mean for independent agents moving forward. “We've talked a lot throughout the year about increased [artificial intelligence] usage and the benefits it brings,” Spears says. “But we're also starting to see some concerns from agents and customers as more of the risks of AI begin to play out.” Agency Nation Radio is where insurance professionals turn on the mic and share unscripted stories about leadership, technology, marketing, success and failure—stories that helped make them the professionals they are today.

Disclaimer: We are not professionals. This podcast is opinioned based and from life experience. This is for entertainment purposes only. Opinions helped by our guests may not reflect our own. But we love a good conversation.In this live 2 Be Better Podcast episode, Chris and Peaches start with real life wins and a behind the scenes look at building a traditional family and future homestead, from cutting almost $100,000 of debt and lowering monthly expenses to their goal of buying land by the end of 2026. They talk about Patreon growth, retreats, kids evolving emotionally, and Chris's upcoming daily affirmation book with light lunar and planetary touches, giving you a grounded picture of what intentional marriage, parenting, and money stewardship actually look like in real time. You also hear a powerful success story from a fiancé who carried his partner through multiple deaths in the family, grad school, and even a very sick dog, then used the podcast to lose weight, repair their sex life, and step into traditional marriage roles with more communication, intimacy, and leadership. From there they dive deep into a 25 year old woman's email about leaving an abusive relationship, growing up with a narcissistic mother, living with BPD, and feeling stuck in hyper independence while secretly craving a traditional marriage as a stay at home mom, homemaker, and submissive wife. Chris and Peaches unpack shame, ego, and family control, challenge the “never depend on a man” narrative, and give practical tools for healing narcissistic abuse, setting boundaries, asking for help daily, and finding therapy and community that fits a more traditional woman. They also walk through her quarter life crisis, fear that it is “too late” to find a husband, and her early steps toward a personal relationship with Christ and God, explaining how to read the Bible, question religion, and build faith without surrendering your mind to a pastor or denomination. If you are a hyper independent woman who wants to be a traditional wife, a stay at home mom, and a homemaker, or you are navigating narcissistic family dynamics, abusive exes, BPD, or late in life faith, this Christian leaning relationship and marriage podcast episode will speak directly to you and give you clear, no nonsense steps forward.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.
