The joyous and jubilant documentary Sally! - the exclamation mark is deliberate - is a delightful and educational journey through the life and history of Sally Miller Gearhart: a professor of Speech, Theatre, and Women Studies; a fantasy writer; and most known as a lesbian feminist activist who helped transform the world for women and queer people alike. If, like me, you haven't truly heard the name Sally Gearhart before, then you might know of her activist work alongside Harvey Milk, notably from a pointed interview where Sally joined Harvey to debate John Briggs about his noxious and harmful bill dubbed Proposition 6, or the 'Briggs Initiative', which, if passed, would have seen homosexuals from academic positions in public schools. This debate with Briggs is one of the pivotal points in Sally's life, which also included her appearance in notable documentaries like WORD IS OUT: Stories of Some of Our Lives in 1977 and in Barbara Hammer's short film Superdyke.What delights the most about Sally!, the documentary, is that it meets the energy, vibrancy, and advocacy of Sally, the person, and acts as a celebration of activism, queer liberation, queer culture, feminism, and so much more. It is, quite simply, a rapturous delight to watch and spend time with. The film details Sally's life, featuring in depth interviews with those she knew, loved, campaigned with, and built a community alongside. It also features some joyously funny and engaging interviews with Sally herself, recorded in the years before her passing. Sally! is more than just a history lesson, it's a reminder that in a time of great societal upheaval and distress, one of the purest forms of resistance is laughter, community, and joy. They can't take that away from you.I was fortunate enough to talk with two of the co-directors of the film, Ondine Rarey and Jörg Fockele, while they were in Sydney for the Mardi Gras Queer Screen Film Festival screening of the film. Fellow co-director and producer Deborah Craig was unable to attend, but the sense of community and energy around the film and the following discussion carries her energy forward. This interview talks about how Deborah discovered Sally, and why telling Sally's story on screen right now is so deeply important. Ondine and Jörg also talk about the importance of being able to screen a film like Sally! in the world right now, and about the importance of keeping queer activist history alive and relevant. Sally! is a delight of a film, and you can see in person at the Mardi Gras Film Festival on Saturday 15 February. This is a special community screening, where all tickets are just $12. You won't want to miss it. However, if you're unable to attend the screening in person, then Sally! is also screening on demand later in the festival.

VYS0046 | Ding Dong Merrily On High Strangeness - Vayse to Face to Face with Stephanie Quick and AP Strange: Christmas 2024 - Show Notes Ho, ho, holy shit that's another year gone and Christmas is here again! To mark the ever-increasing speed at which the years fly past in a blur of spiralling anxiety and gathering doom, Hine and Buckley invite two of the nicest, wisest and funniest people in Weirdosphere, Stephanie Quick and AP Strange, to help them celebrate away the winter blues. Drawing on the British tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas, Hine, Buckley, Strange and Quick (also the title of the upcoming Vayse autobiography) work their way around the cardinal points, each telling a ghost story from the place in which they were born: the North and South of England and the East Coast and West Coast of the US. There are tales of a murderous jester who stalks the corridors of a Cumbrian castle to this day; a red haired woman who haunting a pirate-built cottage in New England; a missing bride at a Christmas wedding in a very haunted stately home in Hampshire; and a revolutionary Californian abolitionist who still throws nuts from trees over 120 years after her death... and they discuss three lesser known British winter traditions: Raymond Briggs' Snowman, ignoring Thanksgiving and moaning about the weather... (recorded 8 December 2024) Thanks to AP and Steph for preparing the stories and thanks to Keith for another year of show notes - follow the man on Blue Sky: @peakflow.bsky.social.

John Briggs is a man on a mission! A mission to give entrepreneurs a new workday standard so they avoid burnout and stay in business. The 3.3 Rule book showcases how to make more by working less.He “walks the walk” by battling against the traditional CPA culture of “overwork, underpaid, pay your dues and suffer while you're at it” mentality by providing his team with this same new workday normal, even during busy tax season!Find John at incitetax.com and the 33rulebook.com ----- John Bates provides 1:1 Executive Communications Coaching, both in-person and online, as well as large and small group training.

In 1978, state senator John Briggs put a bold proposition on the California ballot. If it passed, the Briggs Initiative would ban gays and lesbians from working in public schools—and fuel a growing backlash against LGBTQ+ people in all corners of American life.  In the ninth season of Slate's Slow Burn, host Christina Cauterucci explores one of the most consequential civil rights battles in American history: the first-ever statewide vote on gay rights. With that fight looming, young gay activists formed a sprawling, infighting, joyous opposition; confronted the smear that they were indoctrinating kids; and came out en masse to show Briggs—and their own communities—who they really were. And when an unthinkable act of violence shocked them all, they showed the world what gay power looked like. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of The Kelly Roach Show, Kelly and John Briggs dive into how to revolutionize work schedules using his 3.3 rule to combat burnout. John discusses the 3.3 Rule from his book, a manifesto to not only the accounting industry but to all professionals who face burnout and overwork. His 3.3 Rule argues for a more humane approach to the workday, stating that the most efficient schedule involves working for up to 3 hours followed by a rest period of 30% of that work time. Also in this episode:  Many industries, not just accounting, face employee burnout and dissatisfaction due to outdated work models, which lead to significant economic impacts. Studies from institutions like the Princeton Neurological Institute lend credence to the 3.3 Rule, revealing that acknowledging and incorporating natural cycles of focus and distraction into work patterns is beneficial. A more focused workday with intentional breaks leads to happier, healthier, and more productive employees who maintain their passion for their careers.   Learn more about Legacy Leaders: https://kellyroachcoaching.com/legacy-leaders-consult/ Get a copy of John's Book: https://33rulebook.com  Connect with John's team: https://incitetax.com/contact/   Stay Connected With Kelly Roach:  Instagram | LinkedIn | Facebook | Youtube

Most people are still working the same 40-hour workweek introduced just under 100 years ago, and gym owners often go way beyond 40. In fact, many work closer to 80 hours a week. This can quickly lead to burnout—a killer of small businesses. In this episode of “Run a Profitable Gym,” Two-Brain founder and CEO Chris Cooper is joined by John Briggs, accountant and author of “Profit First for Microgyms.” The two discuss John's latest book, “The 3.3 Rule.” In the book, John pushes back against the idea that entrepreneurs—and their teams—should work until they drop. Instead, they can maximize productivity and avoid burnout by structuring their workdays into periods of focused work and breaks. The structure is incredibly simple but effective—and it's backed by science. John wrote the “The 3.3 Rule” because he was tired of seeing small businesses close shop; he wants to help entrepreneurs preserve the energy and focus they need to build stable, profitable businesses.Links"The 3.3 Rule"Gym Owners UnitedBook a Call 0:35 - Inspiration for the 3.3 Rule8:23 - 3.3 Rule breakdown16:48 - Implementing the 3.3 Framework25:08 - 3.3 Rule and balance31:29 - Challenges with the 3.3 Rule

John Briggs is the founder of Incite Tax. His theme is, “The IRS Sucks”, and business owners should keep more of their money to build long-term wealth. John is a man on a mission to give entrepreneurs an actual work-life balance so they don't get burned out. He helps them increase their cash immediately so they can have confidence in their choices and become financially resilient. What problem do you solve?  Today John will give us expert advice on cash flow management problems and he will share tax strategies. Show Notes: Cash flow is the lifeblood of our business. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in the emergencies and urgencies of day-to-day business that we forget to address cash flow. One mistake is assuming that the IRS is right. While they have a lot of authority, the employees there may not be competent. Parkinson's law for cash flow would say that we will expand to spend all the cash available. We need to be careful not to fall into this trap. John recommends using the Profit First method. (See Gary's interview Ep: 061 Mike Michalowicz – Ascend Business Mastermind (goascend.biz) John equates taxes and the IRS to playing a board game. If you read the rules, there is likely something you can take advantage of to decrease your tax burden. The 4th quarter is an excellent time to plan tax strategies. Make sure your accountant isn't using the plug and chug method. — They just plug in your numbers and submit them to the IRS and chug along instead of being proactive to seek tax advantages for you. John works with clients all over the US. Paying yourself first is really important. John has a book coming out called The 3.3 Rule. John shares the importance of taking breaks to increase your productivity. John Briggs's Best Small Business Tip: Your best advice may be different than someone else. Be aware that you are at a different point in your business than what others are so just realize you need to work on what you need to work on.
