A new book is giving the world an in-depth look at the life and career of longtime Channel 2 anchorman, Bill Kurtis, and people may or may not be surprised by why Kurtis who is 85 years old decided to write the book "Whirlwind: My Life Reporting the News" now. "What prompted it, was a fear that my tombstone would have 'Anchorman, The Movie' written on it because so many people now say 'oh yeah, you were the narrator in that movie,' and I like to say 'you know, I did a lot more -- like 60 years -- before that movie came along," explains Kurtis.

Want your team to run smoother and your stress to drop? We sat down with Cardinal Legacy Towing Group's CEO, Kurtis Barks, to unpack a simple idea with outsized impact: put the right people in the right roles and teach leaders how to lead. From towing and recovery to body shops and insurance, the same patterns show up—great operators get promoted, then drown in management chaos. Kurtis walks us through the Trailblazer Leadership Retreat, a two-day, small-group experience built for owners and managers who need real tools, not vague motivation. Think role scorecards, decision frameworks, candid coaching, and a peer network that lasts.We dig into the Culture Index and how a 10-minute survey can cut turnover, stabilize hiring, and reveal strengths you can actually use. You'll hear how a struggling salesperson became a standout finance pro once his natural wiring had a place to shine. The results aren't theoretical: better safety, fewer miscasts, faster onboarding, clearer meetings, and more resilient margins. We also talk about training that respects time—concise classrooms, more instructors, and a calendar of schools rolling out nationwide. If you've ever felt stuck working in the business instead of on it, this is your map out.Beyond operations, we spotlight service and legacy. Kurtis shares the story of Guns and Hoses and BackStoppers in the St. Louis region, supporting families of fallen first responders with real, lasting help. That spirit is baked into the retreat's design: small, practical, and people-first. Seats are limited to 30 for deep work and stronger connections, with priority access for attendees to bring their teams later in the year. Ready to swap firefighting for leadership that scales?

In this unique episode, we flip the script. Kurtis Anderton, former top closer at BAD Marketing and founder of Agency Closers, turns the tables and interviews Eddie Maalouf instead of the usual format. Kurtis asks the questions nobody else would dare to ask, diving deep into Eddie's decision to buy Scoville Hot Chicken (and why he'd go all-in on chicken over Bad Marketing if forced to choose), his unconventional approach to family-business integration, the real story behind his brother's kidnapping in Haiti, and how he makes 50+ critical business decisions while casually sitting on beanbags. You'll discover Eddie's philosophy on speed over perfection (making 100 decisions with 20% wrong beats making 3 perfect ones), his "poker face" advantage in crisis situations, why he negotiates every deal like his life depends on it, and his brutally honest take on parenting kids who are growing up with generational wealth. This isn't your typical business podcast, it's an unfiltered look inside the mind of someone operating multiple eight-figure businesses simultaneously, all while refusing to let any deal happen on terms that aren't his.

What if the most powerful tool for emotional healing, trauma release, and spiritual awakening has been inside you since birth? This week on The Skeptic Metaphysicians, we sit down with Kurtis Lee Thomas, global corporate mindfulness trainer, founder of Breathwork Detox, #1 bestselling author, and the man NASA, Nike, and The Today Show call when their people are breaking down. Kurtis doesn't preach modern spirituality fluff. He delivers physiological, neurological, and emotional transformation through a deceptively simple modality: breathing. But not the casual inhale-exhale you do every day… We're talking about a deep diaphragmatic technique capable of:Releasing stored trauma and emotional blockagesTriggering profound energy healingOpening intuitive channelsRewiring the nervous systemSupporting spiritual growth and consciousness expansionCreating the clarity needed to step into your soul purposeIf that sounds impossible, wait until you hear the stories:✔ A five-year chronic illness completely resolved in one session✔ Instant clarity and breakthroughs in people who've felt stuck for decades✔ Engineers, veterans, and skeptics experiencing Kundalini-like activations✔ A mind-bending account of spontaneous physical healing that you'll need to hear to believe Breathwork Detox isn't just breathwork, it's a full-body energetic purge designed to clear the emotional “weight” you've been carrying your entire life. Whether you're navigating your own awakening, seeking deeper consciousness, exploring intuition development, or simply trying to stop your stress from running your life, this conversation will reset your understanding of what healing can look like.IN THIS EPISODE: • Why most people breathe incorrectly, and how it blocks emotional & energetic flow • How unprocessed experiences lodge in the body and manifest as anxiety, illness, and stuckness • The exact 3-part breathing sequence used in Breathwork Detox • The science behind clarity, flow state, and shutting down the overactive mind • How breathwork triggers profound spiritual awakening experiences, even in total skeptics • Why clarity (not bliss) is the real engine of manifestation • The four types of people who benefit the MOST from this practice • Why energy healing works even for people who don't “believe” in it • How breathwork can support emotional transitions, hormonal shifts, and the stress of modern lifeWHY THIS EPISODE MATTERS If you feel overwhelmed… foggy… disconnected… stuck in old patterns… or blocked from the spiritual growth you know is possible, then you're likely carrying far more emotional residue than you realize. You don't need a guru. You don't need a plant medicine ceremony. You don't need a near-death experience to wake up. You need to clear what's standing between you and the truth already inside you. And this modality gives you the key.ABOUT OUR GUEST — KURTIS LEE THOMASFounder of Breathwork DetoxCorporate mindfulness trainer for Nike, NASA, and Fortune 500 companies#1 international bestselling authorBoard Chair of the Just Breathe FoundationGlobal teacher helping thousands detox emotional blockages, trauma, and mental overwhelmCONNECT WITH KURTIS Website: BreathworkDetox.comFree masterclass, virtual sessions, facilitator training & more inside.Subscribe, Rate & Review!

In today's episode I'm joined by the incredible Kurtis Lee Thomas, Founder of the Breathwork Detox modality — a transformative breathwork system that's been featured on The Today Show and used by some of the world's biggest organisations. Kurtis has brought his breathwork method into spaces like Nike, NASA, Fortune 500 companies, elite athletic teams and a long list of celebrities and high-performers. His work speaks for itself — the impact, the results, and the rapid transformation this modality creates are truly remarkable. In this conversation we explore - What breathwork actually is beyond the buzzword. The somatic, emotional and energetic logic behind Breathwork Detox. How one session can trigger release, clarity and nervous system reset. Why organisations like Nike and NASA are turning to breathwork for performance, focus and stress management. The deeper spiritual and alchemical dimensions of using breath as a tool for healing and awakening. Kurtis's personal journey into this work — and what breath can reveal when we learn to listen.

This month we turn our gaze upward toward the radiant realms of the Angels. Angels are not bound by religion. They are frequencies of divine intelligence — messengers of light, guardians of the heart, and allies in both healing and manifestation. Their presence reminds us that even in darkness, light is always near. Throughout November, we will be working with the Angelic Current — inviting clarity, protection and peace into our energy fields as we prepare for winter's stillness. Expect soft golds, feathers, candlelight and celestial calm as we weave witchcraft with higher guidance. This is a month of softening, listening, and remembering that you are always held in light. Let the angels speak through your intuition, your dreams, and your everyday magic. This month includes – A deep exploration of the Angelic Realm and how witches can work with angels outside of dogma Guided meditation to meet your Guardian Angel Magick and teachings on the seven Archangels Journal prompts to discover your guiding angel Angelic healing practices for aura cleansing and energy renewal A ritual for Angelic Manifestation and opening to miracles A tarot spread for divine guidance A soft celestial-inspired printable poster for your altar or journal By the end of November, you will have – A clear understanding of angelic energies and how to work with them as a witch A strengthened connection with your Guardian Angel Practices for angelic healing, protection and peace Tools for divine manifestation and intuitive guidance A deeper sense of being supported, guided and held as winter approaches Join me for November's journey – https://patreon.com/TheHedgeandHollow?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink WINGS OF LIGHT — ANGELIC COMMUNION & GUIDANCE Wednesday 26th November, 7pm GMT via Zoom As winter's quiet deepens, our November circle invites us to rise into the light.
