Send us Fan MailYour medical bill says one thing, your insurance statement says another, and somehow the “cash price” is lower than using the card you pay for every month. We wanted to know why, so we brought in Chris Hamilton, a Texas-based employee benefits consultant who deals with healthcare and insurance costs for employers every day and is blunt about what's broken.We start with a real urgent care moment that perfectly captures the problem: a parent is told the cash price is cheaper, but because she has insurance the clinic must charge more to stay in-network. From there we break down chargemasters and the discount illusion, why “allowed amounts” exist, and how Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement pressures can push higher prices into the commercial market. We also talk single payer, what drives wait lists, and why price ceilings can squeeze supply, staffing, and investment in care.Then we get tactical. Chris explains how vertical integration changes incentives, how PBMs can profit through spread pricing, and why consolidation gives hospital systems and insurers enormous leverage. Most importantly, we lay out practical employer strategies that can actually reduce healthcare spending: direct contracts with hospitals, steering incentives that drop deductibles at preferred facilities, bundled payments for major procedures, and self-funded plans paired with stop-loss coverage to cap catastrophic risk.If you've ever looked at an EOB (explanation of benefits) and wondered who's winning, this conversation is for you.

Send us Fan MailThe National Real Estate News loves a simple storyline, but your local market does not live in a headline. We sit down with Pete Heim for a Local and National Real Estate Update and get specific about what's actually happening on the ground: mortgage rates hovering around the mid-6% range, inventory sitting in the mid-500s, and why a few extra listings can change negotiating power without suddenly “crashing” prices. We also dig into the stats that matter for buyers and sellers, including average sale price (about $338K year to date), days on market (around 23), and what a 1.3-month absorption rate signals.Then we tackle a hot claim we keep hearing online: renting is better than owning. We separate “sometimes renting is the only move right now” from “renting is the smarter wealth strategy,” and we walk through the real-world math that gets overlooked, including tax treatment, appreciation, and why building home equity often drives long-term net worth. If you're weighing a purchase or trying to make peace with your timing, this part will help you think clearly.We also raise a big red flag for condo buyers and HOA shoppers: reserve studies and capital reserve funding. After major building failures, many associations are being forced into overdue repairs, which can mean special assessments and higher quarterly fees. We close with two actionable angles: asking about FHA and VA assumable mortgages to capture older low rates on existing loan balances, and shopping your home and auto insurance again now that competition is shifting.If this helped, subscribe, share it with a friend who's house-hunting, and leave a quick review so more local buyers and sellers can find the show. ---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!

Send us Fan MailYour kid denies what you just watched happen and you can feel your blood pressure rise. That moment is where good intentions go to die, and it is exactly where Josh Davis shows us how to slow down without becoming passive. Josh is a dad of three with a PhD in psychology and neuroscience, and he translates NLP (neurolinguistic programming) into simple, usable tools for parenting, marriage, and everyday communication. We dig into what NLP actually is, why it came out of outcome oriented psychotherapy, and how it turns “be a better parent” into skills you can practice. Josh shares a real at home example of pacing and leading during kid chaos, plus the small language shifts that help children regulate and reconnect instead of doubling down. If you want practical dad advice that works in the kitchen, the backyard, and the car ride, this conversation stays grounded and specific. Then we workshop a common trigger: lying right to your face. Josh walks us through “Just the Facts,” a fast emotional regulation tool that separates what happened from the story we add on top, like mind reading and future catastrophizing. We also cover stronger follow up questions for kids and how to disagree with your spouse without undermining her by focusing on what problem she is trying to solve. If you want better family communication, calmer discipline, and a stronger partnership at home, listen through and try one tool this week.

OCF Crosspoint Show Notes with Lt Col Jeff Miller, USAF (Ret.) Opening Summary "How does a Christian in the military achieve balance between work and family?" A cadet asked Lt Col Jeff Miller, USAF (Ret.), that question during a panel event for ROTC, and after 34 years in the Air Force, 34 years of marriage, and four children, Jeff realized he didn't have a good answer. Neither did the seasoned officers around him. One active-duty squadron commander admitted he felt like he was failing his family, his squadron, and Jesus every day. That unsettling moment sent Miller into a study of Scripture that reframed the question entirely. Instead of balance, he offers a different word: ascendancy—Christ's priority so eclipsing every other priority that his values become yours, and those values guide every competing decision. Miller, an OCF local leader for ROTC at Mississippi State University, unpacks that framework, what biblical rest is, and how to discern a hard season from an unsustainable one. A companion Bible study by Jeff Miller on this topic is in editing and will be posted at ocfusa.org soon—link to follow.   Questions answered and themes covered in this interview include: How does a Christian in the military balance work and family? Balance is likely the wrong goal. The nature of military service does not lend itself to balance, and what most people are seeking when they seek balance is control—a life that feels manageable. Jeff Miller describes it as sitting on a seesaw waiting for someone of equal weight, only to have an 800-pound gorilla drop onto the other end: a national crisis, a deployment, a command billet where you are effectively owned by the organization, a child with special needs, or a personal struggle you brought on yourself. None of those are within your control. Miller's own attempt to answer the question from a panel stage amounted to little more than warning cadets to tell their future spouse what they were getting into. The better question, he concluded, is not how to balance two priorities but whether Christ is ascendant over both. How do I put Christ first in a demanding military career? Study Christ closely enough to know what he values and let those values decide the tradeoffs because when his values become yours, you can ask which principle he values most in this moment. Putting Christ first means letting him ascend over, eclipse, and swallow up every other priority, including family. Jeff Miller calls this ascendancy, drawing on Luke 14, where Jesus says that anyone who loves family more than him cannot be his disciple, and on the parables of the pearl and the hidden treasure, where the finder sells everything without hesitating (Matthew 13:44–46). Practically, ascendancy works like this: when you study Christ closely enough to know what he values, his values become yours, and you can ask which principle he values most in this moment. Sometimes the answer is that military duty takes precedence and family runs at a temporary deficit; at other times, it might mean the opposite. Miller admits he entered service with Christ merely augmenting his own agenda; ascendancy means Christ is the agenda. Single service members can ask the same question of work and life. What's the difference between Biblical rest and taking time off? Rest is not the cessation of movement. In Matthew 11:28–30, Jesus invites the weary to take his yoke—an instrument of work—and learn from him, promising rest for their souls. Jeff Miller notes that taking a master's yoke in that culture meant submitting to that master's instruction: put yourself under my program, and I'll show you how to find rest. That reframes Sabbath. Getting away from the workplace or doing nothing at all isn't the point; ceasing normal activity in order to reflect on what God has done, what he has given you strength to do, and who he is (and to give thanks) is the point. Family fun is good but a distant second. Miller confesses that his beach vacations used to be packed so full that he came home exhausted, having never sat still to watch the sun come up and meditate on God's Word. How can a Christian find rest during a high ops tempo or deployment? Rest travels with you. In a high-tempo environment, the rhythm of a weekly Sabbath may not be available, but daily rest is, even if found only in 5-minute increments. Military life has hurry-up-and-wait moments built into it: heavy information loads and rapid decisions, then a pause. Jeff Miller's counsel is to memorize Scripture so that you have something to reflect on in those pauses, to thank God for the surge he just carried you through, and to ask for help with what's ahead. Waiting for a deployed chapel service or a real day off usually means waiting a long time. Miller applies the same principle in retirement: he swims laps for half an hour daily, where there's no conversation and nothing to look at, and meditates on Scripture—coming out physically rested and spiritually restored. How do I know if a demanding assignment is God's calling or not? Three sources of guidance apply: God's Word, the Holy Spirit, and the counsel of wise people around you. God's Word tells you what God values, which is the starting point for sorting through competing priorities. Jeff Miller adds a hard question to weigh alongside it: can anyone else fill your role? In general, someone can almost always fill your place in the military, but no one will ever fill your place as a husband, wife, mother, or father. The Holy Spirit teaches, but struggles to speak to someone who isn't in the Word and hasn't taken the time to ask. And wise counsel requires actually being in fellowship, which is difficult when you move every one to three years. This is one reason Miller points to the OCF network for relationships that cross assignments and miles. After weighing all three, you have to act, and the action may be drastic. Can a Christian officer step back from career advancement and still be faithful? Yes. If God calls you to separate or slow down, you should do it, and he will take care of you. Jeff Miller is one example: he stepped off the fast track and moved to the reserves, serving in seasons that ranged from six days a month to full-time as an Air Reserve technician. That pace let him meet his obligations at home while staying in uniform for 34 years and walking alongside young officers. He also describes a friend who left active duty for the airlines specifically because Christ was ascendant, using the income to support ministry and the travel benefits for long-term mission work overseas. Miller acknowledges the cost: he watched classmates reach flag rank and felt the envy. But he wouldn't trade the joy of serving quietly and helping younger commanders succeed.

300 Episodes sounds like a number until you remember what it's made of: planning, recording, editing, guest scheduling, showing up on the weeks you feel inspired and the weeks you don't. Brad and Hugo mark the milestone with a behind-the-scenes conversation about how The Brad Weisman Show started in the early COVID days and why it evolved from a real estate podcast into something bigger: leadership, curiosity, thought leadership, and real stories from real people. Along the way, they get surprise call-ins from family and friends, which turns the celebration into a reminder that community is the real fuel.They unpack podcast statistics that should wake up any creator, like how many shows quit around episode seven and how short the median podcast lifespan can be. Then they get practical: picking a sustainable release schedule, using “regular” guests to keep quality high, and reducing the heavy production workflow that burns most podcasters out. If you're searching for podcasting tips, starting a podcast guidance, or ways to build a consistent content engine, this one is packed with field-tested lessons.Brad and Hugo also talk shop on the creative side: why they prefer bullet points over scripts, how a video podcast studio setup can change the feel of a show, and how intentional set design helps tell the story of the guests. They share ideas for future guests, from musicians to unusual professions, and they reflect on an important next step for any host: how to disagree respectfully without turning conversation into conflict.

Guest: Mark Silverman Leadership doesn't usually fall apart because we don't know what to do. It falls apart because pressure overrides our capacity and we take it out on the people around us. That's why this conversation with leadership coach and author Mark Silverman hits so hard: he doesn't just teach better management moves, he goes straight to the nervous system, the stress load you carry all day, and the triggers that turn calm adults into reactive kids in a conference room.We unpack allostatic load and why modern life keeps it sky high, leaving leaders with less room for patience, creativity, and clear decisions. Mark and I talk through the “usual suspects” that most high performers dismiss: sleep, food, play, friendships, and real connection at home. We also get into the hidden multiplier that makes work feel unbearable: the story you attach to the situation. When you can spot the extra meaning, the rumination, and the fear underneath, you stop adding stress to stress and you start showing up as the steady presence your team needs.Mark also shares his personal path from homelessness and addiction at 27 to rebuilding through AA, then later facing midlife trauma and panic that pushed him into coaching. That lived experience informs his work with executives, high achievers, and leadership teams, plus his book The Rising Leader Handbook and the upcoming audiobook. We dig into the hard transition from being the solo rainmaker to leading through others, and why letting go of the fear of getting fired can make you a better teammate, a clearer truth-teller, and a healthier human.If you want leadership development that's actually usable on your worst day, listen through and take notes.

Pressure is not just a feeling, it's a force that quietly rewires how we lead. When decisions get heavier, patience gets shorter, and your mind lives in a constant hum, it's easy to blame strategy, the market, or your team. We wanted a better answer, so we brought on executive coach and author Angus Nelson to talk about leadership stability, the ability to stay clear, calm, and decisive under sustained pressure.Angus shares the personal failure that shaped his work, then connects it to what he sees in founders and senior leaders everywhere: many “leadership problems” are actually nervous system problems in disguise. We talk practical nervous system regulation and stress recovery, from moving energy through training and sweat to tools like breathwork, visualization, meditation, and tapping. We also dig into the internal operating system, the stories we rehearse, the emotions we carry, and how identity shifts when we intentionally practice a more powerful narrative.We go deep on the success trap too: why hitting the goal can still feel empty, why every elevation creates an invitation, and how meaning and contribution change the way you build. From celebrating wins on purpose to optimizing for direction over destination in a world disrupted by AI and uncertainty, this conversation is packed with grounded mindset and executive coaching insights you can apply right away.  Check out his book: Neuro Resilient LeaderListen now, then share it with a leader who's carrying too much.

July 12, 2026 - Vacation Bible School Day 1 - Sunday PM Bible Class In this episode Bill leads a lively class-style exploration of the complex relationship between archaeology and the Bible. Bill argues that while archaeology can sometimes corroborate biblical details, it does not "prove" Scripture—the Bible is presented as the ultimate, absolute authority. Listeners are taken through the larger debate over timelines, methodology, and the limits of physical evidence. The program contrasts the modern, roughly 200-year history of archaeology with the Bible's traditional, literal timeline of about 6,000 years, and discusses how those differing chronologies shape interpretations. The speaker highlights that archaeology often raises questions or offers multiple interpretations rather than delivering definitive answers. Concrete case studies are covered in depth: the Exodus narrative, the conquest accounts (Jericho and Ai), debates over the location of Mount Sinai, claims about Pharaoh's army at the Red Sea, and sensational finds like alleged remains of Noah's Ark. The episode flags which of these claims are widely debated or lack direct archaeological confirmation. A major portion of the talk focuses on Hezekiah's Tunnel and the Pool of Siloam: the tunnel's construction, the ancient inscription describing the stonecutters' rendezvous, and how the feature aligns with Old Testament descriptions and later New Testament references (including Jesus' healing at the Pool of Siloam). This segment is presented as a strong example of where biblical description and physical remains converge. Bill explains "burn layers"—strata of destruction in archaeological sites—and uses examples such as Shiloh and Jericho to show how sudden destruction horizons can match biblical accounts of conquest, while also stressing that later rebuilding can obscure earlier events. The theological dimension is emphasized through the story of Rahab as an example of grace appearing amid judgment. The Dead Sea Scrolls receive special attention as one of the most remarkable finds supporting the preservation and reliability of Scripture: nearly 1,000 manuscripts from Qumran, the languages they contain, and their significance for understanding Jewish belief in the Second Temple period and the textual history of the Hebrew Bible. The episode also reviews a handful of corroborating inscriptions and human remains—such as the Pilate Stone, the first-century heel bone with an embedded nail, and the Gallio inscription—illustrating archaeology's role in confirming historical persons, administrative titles, and cultural details mentioned in the New Testament. Throughout the lecture the speaker warns about overhyped or bogus claims and encourages careful, critical investigation. He references modern popular apologetics researchers and online resources (Jonathan Moore; Apologetics Press contributors Kyle and Jeremy Butt, David and Jeff Miller) and mentions plans for travel groups to Israel for those interested in seeing sites firsthand. Key takeaways: archaeology can illuminate and sometimes corroborate biblical narratives, but many discoveries are debated or ambiguous; careful scholarship and discernment are essential; and for the speaker, the archaeological record ultimately points back to the authority and reliability of Scripture. The episode closes with an encouragement to keep digging—both literally in the field and figuratively in God's Word. Duration 30:11

In this episode I speak with actor and educator, Jeff Miller, about the Jungian concept of individuation, drawing on the work of analyst James Hollis and author Marilynne Robinson to examine what it truly means to step away from collective expectations and step into oneself. We reflect on our own personal turning points—including my decision to walk away from an academic path in London to break free from long-held internal projections, and Jeff's experience of coming out in his twenties and navigating a dark night of the soul through midlife and recovery—to explore how shadow work, the courage to be different, and learning to stay present through uncertainty and suffering allow us to lead a more conscious, meaningful life.

A former physicist walks into the studio and suddenly the Law of Attraction stops sounding like a slogan and starts sounding like a system. Randy Lyman, author of The Third Element, joins us to unpack the “missing key” most people skip: emotions. Not performative feelings, not workplace drama, but the kind of honest emotional awareness that changes how you lead, how you relate, and what you keep attracting into your life.We talk through Randy's turning point moment, an intense emotional release that was followed by a real shift in his day-to-day reality, and why he sees that as cause and effect. From there we go into the deeper framework: resonance across your thoughts, your actions, and your emotional state. We also explore the quantum physics references that shaped his model, including the double slit experiment and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, plus a practical lens most of us can relate to like the reticular activating system and how intention changes what you notice.If you're a leader, this gets personal fast. Randy explains why feelings are already running the show even when you pretend they aren't, how to process emotions without making decisions from them, and what people need more than money at work: acknowledgement, contribution, and belonging. He shares a simple four-column writing exercise to make stress tangible and find the real emotion under the judgment.

This Week's Guest: Heather YoungerChaos at work has a way of exposing what's real. When the market shifts, a reorg lands, or anxiety spreads across a team, people don't look for a perfect leader. They look for a steady one. That's why I sat down with Heather Younger, a leadership and workplace culture keynote speaker, researcher, and best-selling author known for her work on caring leadership and what she calls becoming unshakable.We get into the nuts and bolts of what “care” actually looks like on the job. Heather breaks caring leadership down into clear, visible behaviors like active listening, building trust, creating psychological safety, and setting expectations that eliminate confusion. We also challenge the common mistake of treating care as “being nice.” Kind leadership can include tough feedback, guardrails, and accountability that protects the team and helps people find the right fit, not just the comfortable path.Then we go deeper into self-leadership and self-regulation: values, fear, progress over perfection, and the ability to pause before you react. Heather shares why selective vulnerability matters, how leaders can acknowledge hard moments without spilling stress onto their people, and why steadiness is a practice, not a personality trait. We also preview her upcoming book, The Unshakable Team, including the canoe metaphor and practical tools like a team stability scan and a steadiness index designed to help leaders navigate uncertainty.If you lead people, build culture, or simply want more resilience at work, you'll leave with a clearer playbook for trust, emotional intelligence, and stability when it counts.

Brad (and Hugo) sit down with Mary Kelly from Omnia Integrative Health and Med Spa to separate signal from noise, by starting with a simple summer problem most of us get wrong: when to apply sunscreen and why sweating changes everything. From there, we get into what Mary actually does day-to-day as a registered nurse, aesthetic injector, and certified nurse health coach and why not so accurate social media marketing creates confusion around skincare, supplements, and quick-fix promises. We go deep on aesthetic medicine with a safety-first lens: what Botox really does, how “preventative Botox” works by reducing repetitive facial movement, and why filler is a totally different category with higher stakes. Mary breaks down collagen stimulation, modern filler techniques that aim for natural movement, and the importance of anatomy training, including her most recent cadaver lab work. We also talk red flags to watch for when choosing an injector (obviously use Mary to get the best results), what can go wrong, and how good practices include explaining risks and inviting you back for quick tweaks if something looks off. Then we pivot to the wellness side, including GLP-1 medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide, why they've been around longer than people think, and why the best outcomes require medical supervision, body composition tracking, protein, and resistance training to protect muscle and reduce the “GLP-1 face” look. Mary also shares the lab work many patients never get through standard insurance panels, including fasting insulin for insulin resistance and ApoB for cardiovascular disease risk, plus how vitamin D and B vitamins fit into a smarter preventive medicine plan. We close with longevity topics like perimenopause, menopause, and safer hormone replacement therapy options that prioritize metabolic health first.

You can tell when a book is written by a real person, because it sounds like a real person. After four months of calls, drafts, and “ghost doctoring,” my ghostwriter Matt Harms, founder of Pen For Hire,  finally joins me in the studio to talk about what it actually takes to turn messy notes and life stories into a finished manuscript, and why the best ghostwriting never feels like someone else taking over your voice.We dig into the nuts and bolts of ghostwriting: how Matt keeps projects moving when clients are busy, how he pulls the right stories out of you with the kind of questions that feel suspiciously therapeutic, and what “good collaboration” looks like when you're building trust fast. We also talk about the reality that most books do not earn back their cost in direct sales, and why that is not the point. A great nonfiction book can still be your most powerful credibility tool, your clearest philosophy statement, and a way to help one reader at the exact right moment.AI shows up in a big way too. Matt shares a genuinely exciting use case: AI-assisted illustration for children's books that can turn families into consistent characters and speed up production. Then we flip to the downside, why AI writing often reads polished but empty, and why “garbage in, garbage out” still rules. If you're thinking about writing a book and wondering whether to hire a ghostwriter, choose a publisher package, or try author coaching, this conversation will help you pick the path that matches your budget, timeline, and goals.Subscribe for more conversations like this, share this with someone sitting on a book idea, and leave a review if it helps.

In this episode I sit down with the actor and educator Jeff Miller to explore Robert A. Johnson's We: Understanding the Psychology of Romantic Love through a Jungian lens, asking why romantic love has become the “single greatest energy system in the Western psyche” and how it often replaces religion as our main path to meaning, transcendence, and ecstasy. We unpack projection—how we place our own unlived life and inner feminine/masculine onto a beloved—then trace romantic love back to the 12th‑century troubadours and the myth of Tristan and Isolde to show what happens when a culture puts divine longing onto human partners instead of the sacred. Along the way we look at the wounded feminine in a power‑driven patriarchy, the imbalance between “masculine” values of control and “feminine” values of connection, and why this split fuels both our idealizations and our bitter disillusionments in relationship. We also talk about where that eros can go instead—into art, theatre, music, dreams, and other experiences of transcendence that connect us to something larger without asking another person to “cure our life”—and how the deeper Jungian task is to balance our inner opposites, withdraw projections, and honour the beauty of falling in love without making it our only doorway to the soul.

You can love your daughter more than anything and still feel like you're speaking different languages. That's the tension we dig into with Madeline Anderson, founder of Girl Dad Network and author of Girl Dad, as we get honest about what actually builds a strong father daughter relationship and why so many families drift into distance without meaning to.We talk about how Madeline went from a UCLA business economics track and a finance career into a purpose-driven mission after realizing something was missing and stress was piling up. From there, we unpack what she noticed in college: a lot of young women carry real pain around their dads, often fueled by disconnects more than bad intent. Her key idea is powerful: it's rarely a “dad problem” or a “daughter problem” so much as a communication translation issue, and translation can be learned.Then we get practical. We cover how distractions and phones create an attention gap, why “including your daughter in your world” can be a game-changer, and how even a simple invitation to join you for football, golf, music, or errands rewrites the story she tells herself about her worth.

AI is updating at a pace most of us have never had to keep up with, and that speed is exactly why so many smart people feel overwhelmed or suspicious. We sit down with Saiid Zamani, an AI trainer and active real estate agent, to make it simple, practical, and real. Our goal is not to hype the tech or fear-monger about robots. We want to show how AI actually fits into everyday work and where the “human advantage” still wins every time.We talk about what AI is already changing, from toll booths disappearing to the way buyers search for homes on platforms like Homes.com, Zillow, and Redfin. Saiid explains why AI may replace certain tasks, but it does not replace trust, emotional intelligence, and the ability to read the room, which is the core of real estate and most relationship-driven businesses. We also break down how agents and small business owners can use AI to follow up faster, write clearer messages, and deliver more value without building a giant team.Then we get hands-on with tools: ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Claude, and Google NotebookLM. Saiid shares how he uses AI as a “thought partner,” including voice conversations to sharpen presentations and turn daily notes into bullet points and checklists. We also cover free vs paid plans, why limits matter when you use AI heavily, and the two guardrails we both care about: privacy and personalization settings.If you've been curious but hesitant, give this conversation 10 to 15 minutes of your attention and take one small step after you listen.

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.

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.
