Jano Rix is on Roadcase this week, and I couldn't be more psyched to share this amazing interview. Jano has been behind the drum kit in The Wood Brothers now for almost 15 years, and his magical drumming, percussion, keys, and vocals add that critical third dimension to the trio's wonderful musical exploration that is at the heart of The Wood Brothers unique sound. The band's sonic journey continues with their latest album Puff of Smoke, which came out August 1.  Jano comes by his musical talent quite honestly — his Dad, noted drummer Luther Rix, had Jano playing drums by the time he was only 3 or 4 years old. And now, Jano and his Dad have together released an album, Legacy Vol. 1, with their new collab project, RIX. It's a delightful album with the heartwarming story of a father, a son, and their lifelong shared musical connection. For Jano, this album was a long time coming.Jano also talks to me about how the hand of fate brought him to The Wood Brothers and we discuss what it means to join the band that he once adored as a fan — how  discovering their music was a true revelation for him. And he describes to me that when he got the call from Oliver, he had truly found his musical home. It's a serendipitous and fateful path that led Jano to this current place, and it's an amazing story. Jano is kind, funny, and full of wonderful surprises, and you won't want to miss this epic and unique story!!   ================================Episode Chapters:Episode Intro with Josh RosenbergIntroduction to Jano RixMusical Influences and Early LifeJoining The Wood BrothersThe Creation of the ShittarTouring ExperiencesCollaborations and New ProjectsThe Creative ProcessLive Performances and Their ImpactThe Evolution of The Wood BrothersConclusion and Reflections================================For The Wood Brothers tour dates, click hereFor more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

Natalie Brunell, journalist, author and host of Coin Stories, joins Jordan to explore why retail attention hasn't returned to Bitcoin despite new highs, and how to reach people outside the echo chamber. She shares her journey from mainstream TV to Bitcoin education and the thinking behind her new book, Bitcoin Is For Everyone.

“Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.” (Romans 12:2 NLT) A flock of wild geese was flying south for the winter. One goose looked down and noticed a group of domestic geese by a little pond near a farm. He noticed that the domestic geese had plenty of grain to eat. Life seemed relatively easy for them. So, he flew down and hung out with the geese until spring. He enjoyed their food, their company, and their leisurely pace. His plan was to rejoin his flock of geese when they flew north again. When spring came, he heard his flock overhead and flew up to join them. But he had grown a bit fat from all the seed he had eaten. Flying was difficult for him. So, he decided to spend one more season on the farm and then rejoin his flock on its next winter migration. When the geese flew south the following fall, the goose flapped his wings a little, but he just kept eating his grain. He had simply lost interest. This is an ideal illustration of how the world influences believers. Usually, there’s no single dramatic event that transforms us. The process doesn’t happen overnight. Instead, it occurs gradually. Like the goose, we may be going about our business, doing what we’re supposed to do, when something catches our eye. Something that looks more appealing. Something that requires less effort. We get distracted. We temporarily suspend what we’re supposed to be doing to investigate. And we like what we see—often because it appeals to our old nature. And if we start to feel guilty about abandoning what we’re supposed to be doing, we rationalize. We tell ourselves that the sidetrack is only temporary—that we’ll soon return to what we’re supposed to be doing. Unfortunately, our best intentions get lost in the convenience or excitement of the sidetrack. Soon, the things of God—the things we’re supposed to be doing—become less appealing to us, and the things of this world become more appealing. After a while, we lose all interest in the things of God. The apostle Paul understood this process all too well. He saw it happen to one of his trusted Christian companions. In his last letter to Timothy, he wrote, “Demas has deserted me because he loves the things of this life” (2 Timothy 4:10 NLT). That’s why Paul warned the believers in Rome, “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect” (Romans 12:2 NLT). We have a choice: Either we will be conformed to this world, or we will be transformed by the renewing of our minds. It’s one or the other. The question is, which way will you go? Reflection question: Which worldly influences present the biggest challenge for you?

This episode of the CMAJ Podcast explores how physician identity can influence patient expectations, and how those expectations may contribute to gender, race, and immigration status pay gaps. The discussion builds on the CMAJ article “Family physician pay inequality: a qualitative study exploring how physician responses to perceived patient expectations may explain gender, race, and immigration status pay differences”.Dr. Monika Dutt, a family physician, public health and preventive medicine specialist, and PhD candidate in health policy at McMaster University, explains how the study's interviews with 55 family physicians across Ontario revealed patterns linking patient expectations to physician identity. She describes how gender and cultural background influence the types of visits physicians are asked to provide, and how these interactions may affect their earnings under fee-for-service models.Dr. Meredith Vanstone, professor in the Department of Family Medicine at McMaster University, outlines how physicians adapt to explicit and inferred patient expectations and the income implications that follow. She discusses how these expectations are shaped by identity and why the resulting adjustments in care can lead to financial penalties for some physicians while improving patient relationships and trust.The guests highlight how remuneration structures can either amplify or mitigate these inequities. They suggest that moving toward salary or time-based models could help reduce the impact of physician identity on income while supporting equitable, patient-centred care.For more information from our sponsor, go to medicuspensionplan.comComments or questions?

If logic and data were all it took to win physicians over, every superior device would dominate the market. But physicians—like all humans—make decisions shaped by perception, emotion, and cognitive shortcuts. In this episode of the Medical Sales Accelerator, Zed sits down with Howie Chan, founder of MedTech Brand Academy and host of The Legend Effect Podcast, to explore the unseen psychological drivers behind physician decision-making. They discuss why medtech teams often lead with data that doesn't change minds, and how to instead influence behavior through emotion, context, and brand strategy. What we discuss in the episode: Why physicians aren't purely rational—and what truly shapes their choices How perception and emotion can outweigh evidence in adoption How medtech brands can position themselves to influence behavior at scale MedTech Brand Academy: https://www.medtechbrandacademy.com/  Connect with Howie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/howiechaniam Connect with Zed: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zedwilliamson

On this episode of the SeventySix Capital Sports Leadership Show, Wayne Kimmel interviewed the Founder of Snapback Sports, Jack Settleman.Settleman explains how Snapback Sports was built on a simple yet powerful idea — highlighting the unique stories and experiences that make college football special. Rather than focusing solely on scores or highlights, Snapback brings fans inside the energy of the game day experience — the food, the traditions, the local culture, and the community that fuels it all.Settleman and Kimmel explore how Snapback's business model emphasizes authenticity and connection over pure scalability. Settleman shares that the brand's success stems from community engagement — building meaningful relationships with fans, athletes, and creators alike. This people-first approach, he notes, has been key to sustaining growth while preserving the spirit of what makes sports content fun and relatable.Settleman discusses his new trivia app, which has quickly gained traction among users for its interactivity and community-driven design.

Our future influences the past, and there's a new Yosemite Sam Mandela Effect. Visit https://rise.tv/video for free exclusive content! Visit https://metaphysicalcoffee.com for coffee that's out of this world! Hear all about it on Edge of Wonder Live with Ben and Rob. One of the most beloved characters in Looney Tunes (or Toons, depending on how you remember it) is Yosemite Sam. His catchphrase has been etched in pop culture with references everywhere. However, there's a problem. He apparently never said his popular catchphrase. In related news and in the quantum realm, physicists now believe that the choices we make in the future do influence our past. Could this be a partial explanation of the Mandela Effect? They are calling it Delayed Choice Quantum Eraser, a mind-bending concept where the act of observing a particle can seemingly reach back in time to change what happened before the observation. Find out tonight what this all means. During the “Dig Deep” Live Q&A segment, ask Ben and Rob your questions directly. In the fan-favorite Top 10 Weirder News of the Week, hear hilarious and bizarre stories, such as Frankenstein rabbits, a galaxy of cosmic grapes, energy drink cans accidentally filled with an unfortunate substance, a Hulk Hogan cloud, and more only on Rise TV.

Wisconsin potato growers are battling both uncooperative weather and tough market conditions this fall. Prolonged heat delayed harvest across the Midwest, forcing farmers to work overnight to protect crop quality, while the frost now threatens what’s left in the ground. Despite decent yields, prices have fallen under pressure from oversupply and reduced demand. Alsum Farms Manager Ryan Walther, out of Friesland, tells Stephanie Hoff that they’re hoping for a market turnaround soon. Sunshine again today with moderate temps. Stu Muck says there is a sliver of a chance for rain by late in the weekend.10 Wisconsin FFA members are in the final phase of competition for National Proficiency awards in Indianapolis. Tyler Leuch is one of those.

Now the market faces increased anxiety over the potential pause in SNAP benefits. Bauer says that program supports a lot of dairy investment by the government. He also notes that MAHA is re-examining the potential for "food boxes" similar to what was distributed during the pandemic.

In the first of three questions we answered this week, a listener wanted to know some of the influences our hosts Joe and Matt see in WoW from literature, movies, and myth, and they talked about a slew of varied media, from 60s sci-fi (no, not that one, though yes, that one) through comics. There are a lot of cultural touchstones and homages to explore in WoW. They also sort of explored the opposite with a different question, discussing which idea or technology they'd bring from real life into WoW. That one is a bit tricky to answer, because in most fantasy the answer is obviously "a gun," but WoW has those already.Plus, if you could bring back any character in WoW from the dead, which one would you pick and why? Everyone who didn't immediately say Tiffin Wrynn, I'm not mad, just disappointed.If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free!

Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere is one of the best depictions of the creative process that I've ever seen, exploring where an artist's ideas come from: those sources, personal and environmental that are processed via one's family history, dreams, desires - and are then delivered through said artist's private relationship with their tools - (in this case the Tascam Portastudio, Echoplex reverb unit, and a water-damaged boombox). I was thrilled by that examination, and by Bruce's steadfast protection of his lo-fi masterpiece when it was being threatened by corporate pressure to compromise. Jeremy Allen White is one of America's finest exemplars of smoldering emotion, and the close ups on Springsteen's anguished face were a tour de force of inner conflict. The protean Stephen Graham as Bruce's complicated monster of a father found vivid expression with just a smattering of dialogue. And, Jeremy Strong - an actor capable of the deepest levels of immersion portrays Bruce's guardian angel of a manager, Jon Landau with such grace, and generous restraint that it made me cry. Kudos to all.The pace is pokey, and I personally could have done without the manufactured love story in which the actress, Odessa Young has the unenviable task of having to deliver clunky exposition, notably when she psychologizes Bruce for us. But, all in all, for a story that chronicles depression and child abuse, the darkness is mitigated by the knowledge that our hero emerges from this crucible to become a happily married family man and cultural hero, and create a timeless work of art. The Splendid Bohemians are honored to feature a couple of tributes to The Boss, which recognize his influence and influences: First, a duet with Bruce and Pete Seeger, the Patron Saint and Johnny Appleseed of folk music, singing Bruce's still relevant- (sadly)- homage to John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath: The Ghost of Tom Joad.  And, we'll close with Ryan Adams' honorable rendition of Nebraska, the title song from those sources which are celebrated in Warren Zanes book and Scott Cooper's film

As Halloween approaches, culture puts darkness on display in costumes, decorations, and entertainment. But the truth is, not all darkness wears a costume. Beneath the surface of our daughters' social media feeds, school hallways, and friend groups, there are subtle yet powerful influences shaping their view of truth, beauty, and even God Himself.  In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, host Patti Garibay welcomes Dr. Natalie Atwell—a licensed clinical mental health counselor, professor, and creator of the Mental Warrior course—for an eye-opening conversation about what's really messing with our girls' minds. With over 20 years of experience in mental health and ministry, Dr. Atwell helps us untangle the “weird influences” girls are facing today, from spiritual confusion online to the glamorization of occult practices in mainstream culture.  Together, Patti and Dr. Atwell explore the reality of spiritual warfare, the importance of recognizing when struggles are more than “just mental,” and how Christian moms can discern the unseen battle for their daughters' hearts and minds. They discuss the power of identity in Christ, the Armor of God, and practical steps moms can take this very weekend to reclaim spiritual ground in their homes.  Whether your daughter is scrolling TikTok, questioning spiritual practices, or simply navigating life in a confusing world, this conversation will help you see the hidden battle—and equip you to guide her into the lasting peace of God's truth.  Scripture References in this Episode:  Ephesians 6:10–18 – The Armor of God  John 8:32 – “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”  1 Peter 5:8 – “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.”  Learn more about Dr. Natalie Atwell's work at mentalwarriorconsulting.com.  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.  To find or start an American Heritage Girls Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

So welcome to the show, Rafael.Rafael 00:00:38  Josh, thank you so much for having me. I really appreciate it. What you were saying about finding somebody to help you. it's the best way I found out. I did the exact same thing with my mentors. Is Josh Nelson right here? Okay, so what you're offering is actually very, very, very good. I highly recommend that anybody that's, you know, listen to this. I met Josh in person. Super cool guy. you should definitely at least talk to him.Rafael 00:01:02  maybe you're not ready, but maybe within a month, you know you'll hit the target and you'll be ready to to to, you know, reach out to Josh and he can help you scale your business. But if if somebody has a blueprint, why would you want to, like, go sideways if somebody knows what it's going to happen? He's going to tell you, like, hey, you might run into this and this is what you have to do instead of you bouncing your head against the wall, you know?Josh 00:01:27  So true. Rafael, I guess I need to pay you that $100 now. Slide that under the table there.Rafael 00:01:33  No, this is not paid advertising. In no way whatsoever. It's just that I really I was I was super I am so stubborn that I, when I had my company, I was working for Nickelodeon at the time, and, I was, coordinator for post-production for Latin America. And I'm like, you know, at that time, my ego was just stupid.Rafael 00:01:55  and I was like, no, I don't need anybody's help with this. I can do myself, blah, blah, blah, blah. I'm just gonna apply for all the awards. I'm just gonna get all the awards and, you know, blah, blah, blah blah. And at some point I was like, oh my God, I'm really struggling, I need help. And a friend told me, a friend who's very much more successful than me with an agency. He's like, hey, man, I reached my million dollar mark, but I can't. I can't grow anymore. I don't seem to be growing. And he does completely different marketing. He does marketing for cleaning companies. I met this dude, and I really think you should meet him, and, you know, yada yada, yada. And Josh is the the the one of the reason why I went into the Amazon space.Josh 00:02:36  Well, Rafael, you've got a lot of experience obviously, in marketing. I mean, the statistics that you shared that, you know, as you've worked with over 500 different Amazon listings, you've been able to increase sales by 77%.Josh 00:02:50  That's a large amount. What should an Amazon seller or just an e-commerce seller? They're on the on board with you in terms of like they know they need to build a brand, but where do they even begin right to in terms of building out their content? They believe that brands are important. So like where do you start with all of this?Rafael 00:03:09  yes. That's a great question. It's a great, great question. it depends on the at what stage of your Amazon journey you're at. but if, let's say you're a seven figure seller, so you definitely have some, some, some data. even if you're selling an e-commerce or Shopify, you have data there. social media, which are your top followers? The tricky thing is that the the people who buy off of Amazon are not the exact same people who buy somewhere else. So even though you kind of simulate, some of my clients actually have a complete buyer persona on Shopify, then they have on Amazon.Josh 00:03:46  Interesting.Rafael 00:03:47  Yeah, it's super interesting.Rafael 00:03:48  Interesting. So if you have a seven figure seller on Amazon, you definitely have brand registry, which gives you brand analytics. Now let's understand the actual consumer. Who's the consumer who's buying from you. is it is it a male or is it a female?Josh 00:04:02  The first step is for you to identify who this audience is, right? Like who is the buyer for this particular product, because then that's going to change the way that you're merchandising your product, right? The images that you're creating. And then you also kind of dove into, you know, utilizing those tools, that Amazon has now done, I think, over the last two years, like Amazon has been...

In this episode of the Truth From The Stand podcast, I'm joined by my buddy Jake Hofer to talk all things whitetail — the anticipation of the season, the emotional rollercoaster of chasing mature bucks, and the critical stretch we all know as scrape week. We dig into the fine details that separate good hunts from great ones — how to actually read scrapes, what deer are telling you through their behavior, and how trail cameras can guide your timing if you know what to look for. This one's all about refining your process, trusting your gut, and letting the deer — not the hype — dictate your strategy. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 463 The anticipation for deer season fuels every hunter's mindset. Influences like Bobby Worthington shape modern whitetail thinking. Emotional highs and lows define the pursuit of mature bucks. Scrape week is a pivotal window for capitalizing on deer movement. Trail cameras are tools — not replacements for woodsmanship. Adapting your strategy and trusting instincts lead to consistent success.
