Your name is a search result now, and your brand is either being built on purpose or built by accident. We talk with Rizzo “King Kongin”, a marketer and creator who turned a competitive personal energy into a brand and an energy drink, then sold the formulation while keeping the King Kongin identity as a long-term platform.We get into the real origin story: planking challenges, relentless repetition, and the decision to be everywhere with your message. Rizzo breaks down how Master P helped shape the blueprint, what it takes to earn access to rooms with major celebrities, and why “opportunity” is more like a box of puzzle pieces than a finished picture. If you care about entrepreneurial mindset, product marketing, and personal branding, this conversation stays grounded in action and consequences.Then we go where most people avoid: partnerships. We talk about how deals go sideways when roles, budgets, and expectations are not clear from day one. From there, we zoom into AI search, Gemini, YouTube, and short-form video tools, plus the practical reality that AI models learn your reputation from what you publish. If you want to control the narrative around your business, real estate brand, or athlete profile, this is the playbook.Subscribe, share this with someone building a brand, and leave a review with the one idea you want people to associate with your name. ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real people, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!
One torn-up knee can change a whole life, but only if you're willing to look for the lesson instead of the loss. Sam Demma, Author of Empty Your Backpack, joins us to share how a serious soccer setback became the starting point for a decade of keynote speaking, service, and storytelling built on one principle: small, consistent actions.We dig into the moments that shaped Sam's message, from picking up trash as a first “small action,” to a flight attendant who turned a paper cup into a phone stand just to help a stranger. That tiny act of kindness turned into a viral story with real-world impact, reminding us that the best leadership skills are often quiet, human, and repeatable. Sam also tells the pandemic-era “Be Someone's Taco” story, a simple food delivery that became a symbol of hope, a kids book, and a surprising ripple effect in schools.Along the way, we talk practical tools for communication and personal growth: how to capture story moments in real time, why using someone's name changes the entire tone of an interaction, and the “spilled coffee theory” for what comes out of us when life bumps us. We also get into what Sam sees in students today, especially fear of judgment and the need for someone to go first, plus what it looks like to build a team and buy back your time without losing the joy.Subscribe for more real conversations, share this with someone who needs a spark, and leave a review with your favorite story from Sam's journey. ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real people, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!
In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend, professional actor, and educator Jeff Miller for a deep dive into the work of Jungian psychoanalyst James Hollis. We discuss why a life focused on meaning trumps the superficial cultural chase for happiness, how to face our personal shadow, and the challenging but liberating reality of taking absolute responsibility for our own lives. From navigating personal blowups with aging parents to finding ultimate wisdom in literature, Jeff shares how Hollis's writing fundamentally shifted his perspective on navigating the second half of life.
Jeff Miller is here to discuss his captivating debut novel, Temporary Palaces, living all over Canada and seeing an Edmonton Oilers hockey game in their championship heyday, our unexpected comedy connections, being inspired by bands like Shotmaker, Kepler, and Fugazi among others, hardcore punk rock lore and mythology, how Ottawa's punk community inspired him to participate generally and start writing zines, what his novel is about and what exactly inspired it, pondering your subcultural youth in adulthood, upcoming live book events, other future plans, and much more.EVERY OTHER COMPLETE KREATIVE KONTROL EPISODE IS ONLY ACCESSIBLE TO PATREON SUPPORTERS STARTING AT $6/MONTH.

OUR GUEST THIS WEEK IS: Pete Heim, Realtor One in three buyers may be teaming up to buy a home, and that single stat raises a huge question: is co-buying the future of homeownership, or a shortcut that can blow up later? We dig into what co-buying actually means (non-married co-borrowers, friends, relatives, and partners), why it's rising, and how it can turn rent money into a real estate investment when affordability is tight and inventory is thin.We also zoom out to what the 2026 housing market looks like beyond the headlines. We talk through National Association of Realtors data on home prices across metro areas, why interest rate shifts ripple through demand, and how the Northeast continues to surprise with pockets that stay competitive. Then we get specific about what we're seeing in places like Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland: new construction popping up, retirees rethinking where they land, and the real draw of lower taxes and no sales tax.From there, we move into practical buyer strategy. We explain why a fully underwritten approval can beat a basic pre-approval, how offering a short post-settlement occupancy to the seller can make a financed offer feel less stressful, and why targeting listings that have been sitting for 20+ days can be a smarter path than chasing the hottest house on day one. We also unpack the wild equity story: homeowners are sitting on about $11 trillion in tappable home equity, and only a small slice has been accessed, which helps explain how some buyers compete like cash.If you want a clearer read on housing inventory, co-buying risk, cash buyer pressure, and real tactics that can win in a competitive market, hit play.

A family drives home from a swim meet thinking about Christmas plans and seconds later everything is unrecognizable. Our guest, John Ulsh, walks us through the head-on collision that nearly killed him and his entire family, the other driver's death, and the recovery that followed: massive internal injuries, an induced coma, a nursing home stay, paralysis, and a long list of surgeries that kept coming for years.We also talk about the parts people don't see when they hear a “survival story” headline: survivor's guilt, chronic pain, the loneliness of nighttime in a facility, and the moment hope feels like it disappears. John shares a near-death experience he still can't fully explain, then gets painfully honest about what finally helped him move forward, including a simple reason he could actually believe and a willingness to rebuild his identity instead of chasing his old life.One of the biggest pivots comes when his daughter tells him she misses her “old daddy.” That pushes John to take ownership of his rehab, find a new kind of training, and learn a powerful mindset shift: there is pain you can't control and pain you can control, and controlled pain can become progress. From there, we get into resilience, self-advocacy in healthcare, why he's fired doctors, how he built a personal “board of directors,” and the lessons behind his book The Upside of Down: A Survivor's Guide to Turning Setbacks into Success.If you care about overcoming adversity, trauma recovery, chronic pain mindset, resilience training, and turning setbacks into fuel, you'll get a lot out of this conversation.

We sit down with Mitchell Osmond of the Dad Nation Podcast and get brutally honest about what it means to be a present dad in a noisy world, where work, phones, and stress quietly steal the only thing we can't earn back: time.We talk about the stats that reframe everything: how fast your time with your kids drops as they grow, and why that “one focused hour” each day can shape a child's confidence for life. Mitchell breaks down the two questions kids ask under the surface, “Am I enough?” and “Do I have what it takes?” and how a father's encouragement, belief, and consistent presence can keep them from searching for worth in all the wrong places. We also get into the father-daughter dynamic, including how the way we treat our wives becomes the blueprint our daughters normalize.Then we zoom out to marriage and communication, because strong families are built on strong partnerships. Mitchell shares a clear framework for what wives often need to feel secure: seen, heard, and safe, along with simple active listening tools that lower defensiveness and rebuild connection. We also unpack emotional disconnection, the quiet drift that damages relationships long before any big blowup.If you want actionable fatherhood advice, practical marriage help, and a reset on what matters most, this conversation is for you.

Swiping has trained us to judge people like trading cards, then wonder why dating feels hollow. Brad sits down with Amberlei Ann Oates, the Founder and CEO of RadarQR, to talk about a bold alternative: build connection where chemistry actually lives, face to face, in public, with better tools to break the ice.Amberlei shares how being single in San Francisco pushed her to “flip the script” on modern online dating. Instead of spending hours swiping just to earn a first meeting, RadarQR helps you meet in the real world first and use a QR code profile to bridge the awkward moment safely. We get into why rejection fear holds so many people back, why men often feel frozen about approaching, and how authenticity shows up in the details a photo cannot capture like voice, humor, kindness, and the way you treat others.We also dig into how the app works: QR cards you can hand out, profiles with photos and videos, and a hotspot map where you can choose to check in and see who else is open to meeting people nearby. That opt-in visibility matters, because Amber brings a military intelligence lens to privacy and safety, explaining why sharing phone numbers or social accounts can expose far more personal information than most people realize. The conversation expands beyond dating into friendships, community, and networking at conferences, plus how local hotspots can benefit from real foot traffic instead of more screen time.If you want a dating app alternative that prioritizes real-world connection, safer social discovery, and mental health, you'll want to hear this. Subscribe, share this with a friend who's tired of swiping, and leave a review with your take: should meeting in person be the default again? ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real people, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!

Most money advice tells you to grind harder, save more, and wait. We don't buy it. Brad sits down with author and entrepreneur finance expert Garrett Gunderson to talk about a different target: financial independence, where cash flow covers your life and work becomes optional. Along the way, we get real about the cost of living on “someday,” and why building wealth should improve your quality of life now, not just your net worth later.Garrett shares what he learned studying generational wealth and the Rockefeller strategy, including the practical moves families can borrow even without billionaire money: trusts that carry instructions, life insurance used for liquidity and tax-efficient legacy planning, and a modern version of a family office where advisors actually coordinate. We also dig into the human side of wealth, like investing in heirs through family retreats, building shared rituals, and writing a family constitution in your own words so values travel with the assets. (I LOVE THIS)Then we take on retirement planning, 401(k)s, taxes, and the hidden drains Garrett calls the Four I's: IRS, interest, investments, and insurance. The GE pension story is a sharp lesson in stability, sequence-of-returns risk, and what happens when greed replaces good structure. We also talk “investor DNA,” why taking bigger risks isn't the same as getting better returns, and why investing in yourself is often the highest ROI move you can make. (key take away)If you've ever wondered how to create generational wealth, protect your assets, and still enjoy the life you're building, this conversation gives you a clear starting point.

OUR Guest this Week: Rick Elmore *We apologize for the sound quality with this weeks guest*You know that split-second reaction when you spot a handwritten envelope in a pile of junk mail and bills? We're chasing that moment of attention and what it means for modern marketing with Rick Elmore, former NFL defensive end and the founder and CEO of Simply Noted.Rick walks us through the real economics of the NFL, why “not for long” is more than a joke, and how an identity crisis after football pushed him into sales, an MBA, and eventually entrepreneurship. The turning point is surprisingly simple: handwritten notes get opened, remembered, and trusted, but almost nobody has the time to write them at scale. So Rick tested the idea, proved the response, then built the infrastructure to make it real, including custom handwriting robots that put actual pen on paper.We also get practical about scaling a self-funded business: production capacity, engineering costs, and the painful lesson that what gets you to a few million in revenue will not get you to the next level. Then we go full modern with direct mail tracking, QR code attribution, and Rick's bullish take on AI for small business, including how he runs AI SDRs to book meetings. The big takeaway: as AI increases distance, relationship marketing and trust signals like handwritten mail become even more valuable.Subscribe for more conversations like this, share the show with a friend who builds relationships for a living, and leave a review if you want more founder deep-dives.

One shot can freeze time and then speed your whole life up. Kris Jenkins, the Villanova guard who buried the legendary 4.7-second buzzer beater to win the 2016 national championship, joins us for a real, behind-the-scenes breakdown of what that moment felt like and why it wasn't luck. We talk about the game's momentum swings, the pressure of the last possession, and the instant he knew the ball was going in because the “work was already done.”From there, we zoom out to the part people forget: what happens after the highlight goes viral. Kris shares how quickly the fame hit, what it's like waking up to major media attention, and how he kept his friendships and mindset steady when the world suddenly wanted photos and autographs. We also get into a wild layer of the story, facing his brother on the opposite side of the championship game, and how that changes the emotional weight of winning and losing.Kris also brings his perspective into today's college sports reality, including NIL (Name, Image, Likeness). We unpack why athletes deserve to be paid, why the system can still go too far without guardrails, and why financial literacy and long-term thinking matter when money shows up early. He shares how he now uses these lessons in public speaking for athletes and organizations, focusing on leadership, dominant teams, finding your role, and meeting your moment.

Our Guest This WEEK: Jeremy SchreifelsMost people don't fail at podcasting because they lack talent, they fail because they pick the wrong topic and they can't stay consistent long enough for trust to compound. That's why this conversation with Jeremy Schreifels hit so hard for us. Jeremy is the executive producer and founder of Box Seven Media, and he brings a musician's ear to podcast production, audiobook creation, and video content that actually connects.We get into the nuts and bolts of podcasting trends like video podcasting and why recording on a platform like Riverside gives you options later. Jeremy breaks down why a single strong episode can fuel your podcast marketing system with 35 to 40 pieces of repurposed content, something you simply can't squeeze out of one blog post or one social post. We also talk about the real reason shows fade out after episode 8 and again after episode 21, and how passion and curiosity are the only sustainable fix.Then we go deep on audiobooks: why they're life-changing for people who don't love reading, why author-read audiobooks carry more emotion, and how listening at 1.2x speed can keep your attention locked in. Jeremy also shares a smart creator move: add bonus audio that never appears in print. We wrap with leadership ideas we keep thinking about, from “change your questions, change your growth” to the “peeps in your Jeep” lesson on surrounding yourself with the right people, plus Jeremy's push for true royalty-free theme music so creators don't get flagged.Subscribe for more real conversations, share this with a friend who's thinking about starting a podcast, and leave a review if it helped.

His mom didn't show up to a foreclosure auction to buy a building. She showed up to beg to stay. Then she raised her hand, outbid the bank, scraped together the money, and walked out a landlord. That true story is where Andy Henriquez built the message “Show Up For Your Life” and it sets the tone for a conversation about courage, entrepreneurship, and what it takes to act before you feel ready. Andy and I also go deep on storytelling as a real world skill for business, leadership, coaching, and personal branding. We unpack why most people try to persuade with features and credentials, why nobody cares about a “human trophy case,” and how a well told story creates the fastest path to trust. If you've ever struggled to sell your service, lead a team, or even get people to listen, this is the practical framework you've been missing: connect before you sell, paint the destination, and make people feel the point. We also talk about authenticity in the AI age. As fake images, fake videos, and polished scripts flood the internet, real human connection becomes a competitive advantage. Andy explains why signature stories win, how to find yours through challenges and defining moments, and how to stop speaking from the mountaintop and start meeting people in the valley where they actually live.

“What if the health system isn't designed to keep you healthy?” That question sets the tone as we talk with Jay Campbell (while he was on vacation in Mexico) about what it actually takes to get fully optimized, not just “treated.” We start with Jay's personal turning point: a sports injury that led to lab work, a shocking testosterone result, and a crash course in hormone optimization that changed how he thinks about energy, pain, mood, and performance.From there, we get into the real nuts and bolts of peptides and the GLP-1 wave. Jay explains why GLP-1 peptides became mainstream through Ozempic and Wegovy, what they do for appetite and glucose control, and why so many people run into trouble when they treat them like a shortcut. We dig into microdosing, protecting muscle with resistance training, and how “Ozempic face” and other side effects can often come down to high doses and zero lifestyle structure. If you care about metabolic health, insulin resistance, obesity, body composition, and longevity, this conversation connects the dots.We also go beyond injections and talk biohacking choices that carry real risk or real upside. Jay shares why he's high on oxygen and ozone hydrotherapy for recovery, sleep, and energy, and why cold plunges can be overrated and even dangerous for unconditioned people. We wrap with Jay's new book Metabolic Awakening With GLP-1 Peptides and where to get his free resources.Subscribe for more conversations like this, share the episode with a friend who's curious about GLP-1s, and leave a review if you want us to bring Jay back for round two. ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real estate, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!

Hope doesn't always look heroic. Sometimes it's a nine-year-old whispering a fearful prayer, a college student lying on the floor searching for sleep, or a friend deciding to make one more call before the dark closes in. We sat down with Author, Podcast Host and Psychology student Andelina Storm to trace how childhood loss led to OCD and anxiety, how depression blindsided her in college, and how faith and practical tools helped her trade control for peace. Her message is simple and hard: put a comma in your story, not a period.Andelina shares the moment a friend's suicide reshaped her path and why she became a Promise To Live ambassador, turning grief into a mission to interrupt the ripple of silence. We unpack the difference between everyday nerves and clinical anxiety, why stigma still lingers even as awareness grows, and how small, repeatable habits create room for breath—sleep rhythms, grounding exercises, community check-ins, sunlight, music, and even the quiet medicine of petting a dog. She explains how she channels obsessive tendencies into useful structure and why depression, more than anxiety, demanded a new playbook.We also explore her debut book, Sanity in the Storm, and her podcast, Peace in the Storm, where she blends scripture with evidence-based coping strategies to meet Gen Z where they are. For skeptics and believers alike, Andelina treats the Bible as durable wisdom for restless minds, pairing it with psychology to build an integrated approach to mental health. You'll hear a moving cameo from her father on the hidden cost families carry—and the fierce pride of watching a daughter choose life, again and again.If you or someone you love is walking through heavy weather, this conversation offers both compass and company.

In Christ. In Community. In Lebanon.https://www.cornerstonelebanon.com/YouTube LivestreamThe Scriptures of both the Old and New Testaments (66 books) are the unique, divinely inspired, authoritative word of God that came through human agents under God's providence. Its primary purpose is to make us wise for salvation through faith in Jesus Christ (2 Timothy 3:15), who is the ultimate revelation of Eternal Life that the Scriptures testify about (John 5:39; Luke 24:25-27).
The headlines say “uncertainty,” but for prepared investors it reads “opening.” We sit down with multifamily leader Rod Khleif to unpack how he lost $50 million in 2008, rebuilt faster the second time, and why apartments—not scattered single-family—gave him the operational leverage to weather storms. Rod goes deep on the difference makers: centralized maintenance, tighter demographics, and income-driven valuations that can turn tough cycles into launchpads.From there, we get practical. Rod outlines the “law of the first deal,” a real phenomenon where the first acquisition is the slowest and scariest, yet the next two come quickly as confidence compounds. He shares a clear path for new and seasoned operators: play to your strengths, partner for your gaps, and build a bench of lenders, managers, and investors before you need them. With a trillion-dollar commercial “debt wall” approaching and adjustable-rate loans expiring, he expects more auctions, lender takebacks, and real pricing power for buyers who underwrite conservatively and move decisively.Mindset isn't fluff here—it's infrastructure. Rod opens his trainings with goal setting that ties numbers to a strong why, then he practices daily gratitude for what he has and what he wants as if it already exists. That forward-focused habit kept him steady after achieving a long-visualized beach mansion left him oddly empty, and it led him to the Tiny Hands Foundation—providing meals, backpacks, and comfort to kids and families in need. His takeaway: achievement is a science, fulfillment is an art, and service accelerates both.If you're scanning the horizon for multifamily opportunities, this conversation gives you the map and the motor. Learn how to avoid the single-family traps that sank portfolios last cycle, position for distressed deals without reckless risk, and build habits that outlast any market.

Ever wonder why “normal” lab results still leave you feeling flat, foggy, and stuck? We dig into a smarter path with John Goldman, founder of Rebel Health Alliance, and unpack how proactive care—rooted in data and daily habits—can pull you off the slow slide toward metabolic disease and back into high performance living. This is a conversation about building a stronger engine and a more resilient body, not chasing quick fixes.John shares the pivotal tests that change the game: DNA analysis to understand nutrient handling and risk, DEXA to expose visceral fat and lean mass, VO2 max to measure cardiorespiratory fitness, and cardiac imaging to benchmark true heart risk. From there, we get practical. Muscle and VO2 max aren't gym buzzwords; they're the strongest predictors of longevity. We break down how resistance training and conditioning restore insulin sensitivity, reduce systemic inflammation, and dramatically cut all-cause mortality. We also get honest about ultra-processed foods, excess calories, and the “food noise” that keeps you snacking.We tackle the GLP-1 wave with nuance. Used with medical guidance, enough protein, and a lifting plan, these medications can curb cravings, lower inflammation, and accelerate fat loss. Used alone, they risk muscle loss and rebound. We then contrast rushed primary care with an aligned model that gives you time, access, and incentives that favor real results—plus thoughtful hormone optimization for men and women that targets energy, body composition, mood, and cognition without relying on imprecise pellets.If you're ready to replace guesswork with a plan—and trade “fine” for focused, lean, and clear—this is your blueprint.

Anxiety isn't just a feeling—it's a pattern wired by past experiences and reinforced by daily stress. We sit down with Dr. Brian Alman to unpack why so many of us run tense, sleep poorly, and carry headaches and stomach aches, and how those signals trace back to unresolved adversity. He explains how ACE (Adverse Childhood Experience) and positive experience assessments reveal the hidden roots of adult anxiety, addiction, and burnout, and how to turn that awareness into real change.Dr. Alman's approach is both scientific and human. He connects epigenetics, immune system load, and chronic stress, showing why the body can't heal while it's busy fighting emotional fires. Then he lays out a practical sequence: start with awareness, move to unconditional acceptance, express what was never voiced, and get past the inner judge that says “you should be over this.” On the other side is your inner wisdom—steady, compassionate, actionable. His tree metaphor makes it clear: feelings are the roots, thoughts the trunk, behaviors the branches; healthy branches require healthy roots.We also get into daily tools that fit real life. Think two to three-minute techniques that downshift your nervous system and help you process today's stress before it stacks into tomorrow's anxiety. For parents, Dr. Alman shares simple ways to practice patience, model acceptance, and remember the younger “rings” within each of us. And we challenge the myth of instant enlightenment, redefining it as a journey toward unconditional self-acceptance—progress measured one situation at a time.If you're ready to stop managing symptoms and start healing causes, this conversation offers a roadmap that blends evidence with empathy.

What does it really take to build a reality show from scratch—and keep it yours? Jeff Peiffer and his daughter Rachel, open up about the long road to Flipping Farms, from a hallway pitch and a film festival pivot to self-funding a million-dollar season and weathering a $728K scam. It's a story of stubborn optimism, spreadsheets, and choosing creative control over easy money, set against the unpredictability of farm life and the joy of a father–daughter team pushing design into bold territory.We dig into the business of horses and hard lessons learned. Stall board looks lucrative until the labor hours and human drama stack up; field board reduces friction and protects margins. Along the way, a midnight horse retrieval, a law-and-order standoff, and a check that somehow cleared show why documentation and calm negotiations matter. Then there's design: black interiors, unconventional finishes, and thoughtful sequencing that turn rural properties into standout listings. Skepticism gives way to trust as the finished spaces prove the vision. If you're curious about farm flipping, indie production, or how to sell a property with story and style, this conversation has the practical detail and the heart.We also share how Uncommon Success, our original podcast, became a launchpad, why imaginative pitching and a film festival award changed our trajectory, and how the right producers helped us shape a season without sacrificing values. Expect candid behind-the-scenes moments: the “twin” fix for a beard continuity problem, Steven's whirlwind love story in Africa, and the realities of keeping a content pipeline fresh across seasons.

What if the world isn't holding you back—your beliefs are? We sit down with Anders Hansen, CEO of Real Magic, to explore how illusions reveal the shortcuts our minds take and how shifting identity can unlock results that look impossible from the outside. From a floating glass to a domino trick your brain tries to complete, Anders shows that the real sleight of hand happens in our perception—and that's exactly where transformation begins.We dig into the five mental illusions that keep ambitious people stuck in hustle, fear, lack, grind, or luck. Anders explains why fascination opens the door for new ideas to land, how agreement cements them, and why shock is a costly teacher. The conversation moves from theory to practice as we break down A, B, and C goals—and why C goals, the ones you truly want, carry an energetic pull that makes 10x simpler than 2x. Along the way, Anders shares his own reinvention from burnout to breakthrough, the role of mentorship, and the power of choosing identity before outcomes.If you've ever obsessed over price instead of results, or traded time for money while ignoring the leverage of ideas, this one will reset your compass. We talk self-image as the performance ceiling, the ego's trap of waiting for the world to change, and the soul's path of feeling first so reality can follow. You'll leave with a practical lens to rewire reality: upgrade beliefs, set imagination-led targets, and build daily proof that matches who you decide to be.If this conversation sparked something, follow and share it with a friend who's ready for a leap.

What if a steakhouse hello changed your life? That's the spark behind Scot Teller's leap from local pizza legend to playing Paulie in the upcoming movie “I Play Rocky,” the new Peter Farrelly–directed film about Stallone's relentless fight to star in his own script. We get into the improbable path: standing in on sets for camera and lighting, reconnecting with Griffin Dunne on a Lancaster shoot, and waking up to a text that led to Farrelly's call. The audition wasn't a layup—Scott had to earn it—but the resemblance to Burt Young, the work ethic, and the steady mindset made the difference.We talk about the deeper engine behind this break: years earlier, Scott lost almost everything after bad investments and trusted partnerships went wrong. As a single dad in a spiral, he reached for a simple mantra—“What would Rocky do?”—and used it to reframe his days, guard his circle, and filter out noise. That shift in focus unlocked the kind of presence that crews love and directors trust. If you're chasing a creative pivot or a late-blooming dream, you'll hear concrete lessons on reputation, showing up for small opportunities, and the quiet power of staying ready.There's plenty of film love too. Scot shares why the casting for Rocky, Adrian, and Mickey feels uncannily right, what makes Paulie such a demanding role to inhabit, and how production is rolling across New Jersey and Philadelphia toward a 2026 release. It's a full-circle story: a fan who credits Rocky with saving his life now honoring Burt Young's legacy on screen. If resilience, serendipity, and behind-the-scenes filmmaking light you up, this one's for you.If you enjoyed the conversation, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves Rocky, and leave a quick review to help more people find us.Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text Message ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real estate, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!
Our Guest this week is Pete HeimA national headline won't tell you why locally we climbed 5.7% while the U.S. barely cleared 2.1%—but we will. We unpack the real numbers behind 2025's housing market, spotlight the Northeast's outsized role, and share what those trends mean for smarter decisions in 2026. From absorption near a month to a 23-day local average time on market, the signals point to a tight, resilient region where pricing strategy and product quality matter more than ever.We also dig into the gap between seller expectations and reality. 8 out of 10 sellers think they'll get over asking, but only 1 in 4 do—because price still sets the stage. With rates hovering near the low 6's and the long-term average near 7.7%, the “lock-in” freeze is thawing as life events push more owners to list. If mortgage rates slip under 6%, expect a wave of new inventory, better choice for buyers, and calmer, sustainable appreciation in the 3% to 4% range locally.City markets remain pocketed and unpredictable: million-dollar rowhomes draw multiple offers in the right blocks while similar-price properties stall a few neighborhoods away. We explore how micro location, condition, and policy shape outcomes, from proposed rent caps in New York City to on-the-ground redevelopment stories like the Exeter Promenade. The through-line is clear: local economics and property rights guide investment, pricing, and timing far more than national averages do.Want the edge for 2026? Use clean pricing, strong prep; watch neighborhood data, not just headlines; and track how rates and policy shifts could open or close windows.

Ready for a reframe that actually changes how you lead? We sit down with transformational coach Dan Tocchini to unpack why conflict isn't a detour from progress but the most reliable road to it. From the first moment you commit to a bold outcome, resistance appears. Dan shows how to meet that resistance with clear aims, better questions, and conversations that create alignment instead of drama.We dive into the mindset shift that turns breakdowns into breakthroughs. Rather than fall into blame, shame, or chasing credit, Dan walks us through a simple operating system: accept the results your system produces, then ask what's working, what's not, and what's missing for the future you're committed to. We also explore how to argue well. You'll learn to slow down, surface premises, avoid logical traps, and take the other person's side so well they nod. That's how teams get smarter fast.When defensiveness spikes, Dan offers a disarming move: ask what could be true in what they're saying. Pair that with honest speech—naming what's real for you now—and you speed up the path to truth and trust. We round out with The Change Imperative, Dan's practical framework for leading transitions: identify natural influencers, win the fence-sitters, engage the levelers, and expect turbulence before lift. If you want meetings with less heat and more light, this one's a playbook.Grab Dan's free ebook “The Change Imperative” at takenewground.com, then tell us your biggest takeaway.

The Weisman Family Christmas with Brad, Jess, Catherine and CarsonThe room is buzzing before the mics even warm up—tree debates, cookie takes, and the joyful chaos that only a family Christmas special can deliver. We invite you into our living room as we swap stories about real trees versus fake, the power of a good holiday soundtrack, and why Christmas Eve still hits like magic. If you've ever argued over which movie starts the season or whether peppermint deserves a permanent spot in the freezer, you'll feel right at home.We move from traditions to taste—Plow Farms popcorn while picking the tree, the Colors of Christmas album during decorating, and Andrea Bocelli on repeat when the house finally quiets. The kids put in their votes for advent calendars, school news segments, and those TastyKake cookies that somehow disappear faster than the beef and lobster on Christmas Day. We revisit the greatest gifts—PS5s and Starter Jackets, Ataris and Pianos—and consider what rising wish lists say about what we value now: time, tools, and the chance to make something together. There's even a hopeful plea for a 3D printer, because creativity is a gift that keeps giving.Beyond the fun, we sit with what matters most: gratitude for health, faith that centers the season, and the steady warmth of being together. Not everyone gets these moments, and that awareness deepens the meaning of the ones we do have. From Christmas Vacation and Elf to Carol of the Bells and the Post-Thanksgiving music rule, this is a cheerful, honest snapshot of a family finding rhythm, laughter, and purpose in December.If this episode made you smile, tap follow, share it with someone who loves the holidays, and leave a quick review to help others find the show.

This Week's Guest, Bogdan Micov, says what if POWER didn't feel like a sprint, a grind, or a clenched jaw? We sit down with transformation expert Bogdan Micov to unpack calm power—the inner state where real performance lives. Instead of pushing harder and burning out, Bogdan shows how clarity, presence, and responsibility create leverage that force never can.We trace results back to behavior, behavior back to emotional state, and emotional state back to meaning-making. Thoughts are neutral until your filters—deletion, distortion, and generalization—assign a story. Change the story and the chemistry changes too. Bogdan walks us through practical reframes you can use in real time, like turning road rage into curiosity by recognizing “I don't know what I don't know.” The payoff is immediate: less cortisol, more choice, better decisions. He also explains why common coping tactics can soothe but rarely stick, and why deletion—removing stored emotional charge and unhelpful beliefs—creates permanent freedom.Bogdan's method was forged after a stroke at 33 forced a full-life reset. He left high-pressure hospitality leadership and immersed in NLP, hypnosis, timeline and parts work, cognitive-behavioral science, and breath traditions from Hawaii and Tibetan practice. The result is the Be Relentless method, built to locate and clear root causes fast so high performers, entrepreneurs, and leaders can execute without the emotional drag. We dig into language as a performance tool—why saying “not easy” beats “hard,” and how calling stress a verb (stressing) puts you back in the driver's seat.If you're ready to stop stacking hacks and start removing what's in the way, this conversation will give you a clear map: take responsibility for meaning, interrupt the old strategy, and remember who you were before you forgot.

Guest: Pete HeimEver notice how a deal can feel perfect on paper and still fall apart in real life? We dig into the blind spot almost no one talks about: when buyers or sellers hit personal turbulence and go quiet, negotiations get weird, deadlines slip, and good offers sour. We make the case for smart transparency—sharing just enough context with your agent to turn emotion into a practical plan, earn patience from the other side, and keep the closing on track without oversharing.From there, we widen to the places that shape our neighborhoods. Malls that once delivered large department stores (called Anchors), food courts, and seasonal buzz now struggle to offer compelling experiences. Our Berkshire story fits a national pattern: fewer anchors, thinner tenant mix, minimal dining. Yet there's a twist of hope nearby—a major hotel property under new ownership aiming to reboot with fitness, events, a pub and grill, and a big-name coffee partner. It's a case study in adaptive reuse and a signal that mixed-use destinations with daily utility can revive foot traffic where traditional retail fades.We also break down the housing data you can actually use. Median days on market nationally have normalized, while some local markets still move fast. Price trends split by region: steady gains across parts of the Northeast and Midwest, softer spots where inventory surged in recent boomtowns. Expect slow-and-steady equity growth—about three percent annually over five years—translating to roughly $61,000 in potential wealth on a $400,000 home. With mortgage rates hovering in the mid-6s, we talk refi math, locks, and how increased inventory and a 1.6-month absorption rate in steady counties can give buyers room to breathe without sinking sellers' expectations.If you want grounded strategy, not hype, this one's for you: communicate early, price with the market, and let data guide while empathy closes. Subscribe, share with a friend who's house hunting or listing soon, and leave a review with your biggest surprise from the trends we covered.Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text Message Comfort Pro, IncFamily-Owned and Operated Heating, Air Conditioning, and Geothermal Contractors, Since 2001Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

OUR AWESOME GUEST This WEEK: Paul Cuneo Change doesn't start with a neat plan. It starts with the knowing that your current path no longer fits, and the quiet nudge that something braver is calling. We sit down with Paul Cuneo, creator of the Hero's Journey Odyssey Experience, to explore how ancient story patterns and Jungian psychology can turn that restlessness into a reliable map for reinvention. From the call to adventure to the ordeal and the return, Paul shows how each stage reflects an inner identity shift—and how recognizing where you are can reduce fear, clarify next steps, and restore momentum.Paul's unconventional path from music and movement to acting and identity work reveals a key insight: the world doesn't need a perfect performance, it needs your singular presence. That principle anchors his client work. When the ego gets loud—demanding certainty and control—intuition speaks in whispers that are easy to miss. Paul offers practical ways to hear those signals, “follow the firefly,” and clear the hidden blockages (guilt, old stories, outdated defenses) that keep solutions out of reach. One powerful reframe: you don't have to give up who you are; you only have to release the belief that you need certain traits to be safe. Set the sword down so both hands can be in the work, and pick it up again only when it's truly needed.We also unpack a liberating lens on agency: reality versus agreement. Buildings are real; businesses are agreements. Labels are agreements. When you see how much of your life you've consented to, renegotiating becomes possible. If you agreed, you can change the terms. By mapping your journey, honoring the old identity with gratitude, and stepping toward the new one without clinging, hard stops feeling like failure and starts feeling like progress. If you're navigating a career pivot, a relationship shift, or a deep reinvention, this conversation offers structure, language, and tools to move forward with courage. If it resonated, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review—we'd love to hear which stage of the journey you're in now."One of the MOST profound, think outside the box episodes I've experienced while hosting the show" - Brad WeismanHi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text Message ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real estate, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!
Brad and Hugo really dig into Thanksgiving's meaning, family traditions, and how being thankful every day is something to consider. Gratitude hits different when you slow down long enough to feel it. We set the gift lists aside and lean into the quiet joy of Thanksgiving: shared meals, running jokes about stretchy pants, and the small rituals that make a family feel like home. From potato filling and pumpkin pie to the annual watching of Christmas Vacation, we explore how traditions turn values into touchable moments and why this holiday—free from presents and pressure—often becomes people's favorite.The heart of the conversation moves beyond the table. We dig into a nightly gratitude practice that calms the mind, the difference between saying thanks and feeling appreciation, and how absence sharpens love—like noticing an empty side of the bed and realizing how full it feels when someone returns. We also tackle a big question with curious honesty: does real gratitude require a giver? Whether you find meaning in God, speak to the universe, or honor the chain of people behind every comfort, the act of thanking can push ego aside and open space for connection.Finally, we turn warmth into action. If you scored a free turkey you won't use, shelters will; a coat or blanket in the right hands can change a night. We're thankful for the guests who have shared their stories with our community, and for you joining us at the table. If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with someone you love, and leave a quick review—what's one tradition you'll keep forever?"The Best Part about Giving Gratitude is that it takes the Attention Off of YOU and puts it on Someone Else, It gives YOUR Ego a Rest." - Brad Weisman#Gratitude #Thankfulness #PositiveVibes #Mindfulness #Appreciation #SelflessnessHi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text Message ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real estate, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!

The Direct Message looked like spam. It turned out to be A&E offering Dedrick and Krystal Polite a shot at a home-renovation series that actually reflects real neighborhoods, real budgets, and real-life chaos. We sit down with the duo behind A&E's 50/50 Flip to unpack how they went from software sales and corporate headsets to rentals, rehabs, and a documentary-style TV show that doesn't fake the mess—or the math.We get into the origin story: starting with little capital, leveraging wholesaling to buy-and-hold, and documenting every step until the network came calling. Dedrick and Krystal explain why they skip the DIY fantasy, how they choose investor-friendly agents, and the simple system that keeps ARV realistic and finishes on-budget. Krystal breaks down her puzzle-first approach to layout and design, while Dedrick shares how they scaled from a three-person scramble in season one to a disciplined, leveraged team in season two. You'll hear the roof leaks, scheduling shocks, and hard-won lessons that turn a flip into a business.Beyond the flips, we dive into the “18 summers” philosophy—protecting family time by setting a hard 5 pm cutoff—and redefining generational wealth as kids choosing to come home when they don't have to. The Polites also open up about what's next: commercial conversions, a mobile home park, and stepping into franchising with Sky Zone. If you've been hunting for real estate advice grounded in attainable price points, practical systems, and clear values, this conversation delivers both the blueprint and the courage to follow it.If this story sparks something in you, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs the nudge, and leave a quick review to help more builders and dreamers find us.

In this episode of the AI Agent & Copilot Podcast, John Siefert hosts Jeff Miller, Vice President, Americas, LS Retail, for a discussion on LS Retail's position in its industry, how it supports organizations across the globe, integrating AI, and upcoming projects.Key TakeawaysAbout the company: LS Retail has been a leader in its industry from an ISV perspective. The company has been in the ecosystem for about 30 years, focusing on software development in the retail market. There are over 110,000 retail locations using LS Retail in their stores. "We come to a market with what we call 'composable solution,' so I can build building blocks, depending on a retailer's need, that can do everything from run the entire enterprise of a retail business, simply down to a point-of-sale solution that integrates into the rest of the retailer solution stack," Miller explains.Global use: One of LS Retail's specialties is creating the localization and fiscalizations that organizations need to operate across different countries. Every country manages aspects of business, like taxes, a little bit differently. Between LS Retail and its partners, they have done the work to make sure it operates in a way that companies conducting business in various countries can use the software in their stores around the world. Deploying in the Microsoft Cloud with Azure enables them to implement the software seamlessly.Partner network: Operating at a global scale also speaks to the power of LS Retail's business partner network. It has over 300 business partners globally who go through certification testing so they have a technical understanding of how to implement the software and support clients in their local communities.AI integration: "We really take in the whole idea of customer zero and being a frontier firm to heart," Miller says. Within LS Retail, there has been an emphasis on using Copilot and Copilot Studio not only from a development standpoint but also for automating the testing of code. Externally, LS Retail is part of Microsoft's program, "The Microsoft Red Carpet Club." They have been meeting to discuss ideas around agents and providing feedback to Microsoft about the future of products and code, as well as how it integrates with Dynamics products.Pharmacy agent: LS Retail recently announced a project at an event. One of the agents it has developed supports pharmacies in Europe. The company is working on co-innovation projects with pharmacy clients to develop an agent that manages tasks for them, like handling prescriptions and refills. LS Retail is looking at opportunities to expand this particular agent in Latin America as well. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

The sound of community is getting louder again. We sit down with WEEU owner John Treese to unpack how a 1931 AM station found fresh purpose with modern tech, live local programming, and an unapologetic focus on Berks County and the surrounding 16 counties their signal reaches. From the decisive frequency move to 830 AM and a 20,000-watt daytime boost to the nuts and bolts of licenses, towers, and engineering, John explains how coverage becomes connection only when you pair it with relevance.We walk through the overhaul that made the station feel alive: renovated studios that inspire confidence on camera, expanded streaming, and a new video-forward approach to high school football and basketball. Sports serve as a bridge across neighborhoods and generations, supported by a lively scoreboard show featuring coaches, reporters, and standout athletes. The commitment to free, no-paywall content keeps access open for families, fans, and advertisers who want reach without friction. Along the way, we touch on the hardest challenge—bringing back local radio news in a world with fewer radio journalists—and the practical steps WEEU is taking through call-in forums and clear pointers to trustworthy sources.John's path from college radio to station ownership adds heart to the strategy. He argues that radio lost ground when it stopped talking to people like they mattered; WEEU's answer is to open the doors wide. That means internships, school partnerships, student performances in-studio, and series like Outstanding Student that put young voices on air. It also means inviting new hosts to pitch ideas, test their talent, and help build a daily lineup that's live and local from early mornings into drive time. If you care about local media, community sports, and hearing your neighbors on the mic, this conversation will remind you why radio still matters.Follow WEEU at 830weeu.com and on Facebook, Instagram, X, and TikTok.

What if you could change your results by changing your state first? That's the premise Shauna VanBogart brings to the table, blending personal branding roots with a deeper craft: shaping presence so your inner world and outer impact finally match. We dive into Resonance House, her immersive platform that uses cinematic, hypnosis-informed audio journeys to help you step into qualities like calm confidence, creative flow, intuitive clarity, and real capacity to receive support and money without flinching. Shauna walks us through the “room” metaphor that makes growth feel tangible. The Receiving Parlor addresses a common high-performer blind spot: accepting help and praise without deflecting. The Velvet Library trains intuition as a practical skill you can strengthen. The Treasury reframes money as neutral energy and invites abundance without shame. Instead of information overload, each room delivers a felt experience that your mind and body can recall when it counts—on stage, in a negotiation, or during tough conversations at home. We also get tactical about styling energy for the different roles we play in a day. The boardroom self doesn't belong in bedtime routines, and creativity suffers when you attack it with a manager's mindset. Shauna's approach turns transitions into moments of agency: "decide who you need to be, then step into that identity with intention." For highly sensitive people, she offers a reframe: sensitivity is a precision instrument when you set boundaries and build recovery. Her photo energy reads show how naming emotional undercurrents can unlock momentum fast. If you're tired of pushing and ready to resonate, this conversation offers a refreshing path: train your state, and watch your decisions, relationships, and outcomes fall into place. Listen now, then share the room you'd walk into first. If the show resonates, follow, rate, and send this to someone who needs a state reset today.Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text Message ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real estate, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!

Jeff Miller is pastor of Harvest Bible Chapel, Pittsburgh North. He is author of Forgiven People Forgive: A Biblical Response to Forgiveness. On Sunday, September 21st, a memorial service was held for Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA, who was killed by an assassin's bullet on September 10th. In addition to President Trump and other dignitaries, also taking the platform during the memorial service was Charlie's widow, Erika. In reference to the assassin, she said, "I forgive him." She went on to note that this is what Christ did, what Charlie would do and that the answer to hate is not hate. What is forgiveness? Do we need to tolerate sinful behavior just because we forgive someone? Jeff answers these and numerous other questions while also providing insight on key elements in his book. For example, there are those who feel they have good reason for not forgiving, so they may say: I just can't respond to the person. The other person doesn't want to reconcile. (Does that take us "off the hook"?) Well, they'll just do that again! I will forgive, but I won't forget! They have to come to me. (If they don't, is the pressure off the person making that statement?) In the end, Jeff teaches that we are to forgive because we have been forgiven by Christ. In fact, to not forgive can lead to bitterness, hindering our testimony for Him. Learn more, and hear how listeners responded, by reviewing this edition of Crosstalk.
