    EP355 A short history of the 8-hour workday (and how to protect yours)

    A third of your day (apart from work and sleep) is supposed to be yours. So where does it go? In 1817, labor movement activist Robert Owen coined this rallying cry: "Eight hours for work, eight hours for sleep, and eight hours for what we will." But if you've ever tried to make that math work as a teacher, you know the catch. In those "eight hours for what you will," we have to fit commuting, cooking, cleaning, errands, caregiving, homework help, and all the invisible labor of running a life. How do we actually make space for the things that bring us joy? In this episode, I unpack the labor history most of us were never taught, and why I find it a little ironic that I now run a program called the 40 Hour Teacher Workweek. I also talk about the gendered piece of this history that rarely gets named. Women were absolutely part of the labor movement (Frances Perkins literally drafted the Fair Labor Standards Act), but they still ended up with the second shift waiting for them at home. And teachers, who are still overwhelmingly women, are living that reality every single day. I share three practical things I've learned from Katrina Onstad, author of The Weekend Effect, about how to actually reclaim some of that "what you will" time. I also talk about why I refuse to frame rest as a productivity tool, and what I think we owe the workers who fought and died for the protections we now take for granted. This Labor Day, I hope you'll listen to this one somewhere restful. And I hope it gives you permission to protect your time, not because it makes you a better teacher, but because you're a person who deserves a life outside of school.

    Labor day is next weekend, what projects will you be tackling? I'm sharing 4 steps to complete projects during these long weekends. Get ready to start planning what you will be doing next weekend.  It's Really Only One Extra Day You are really only getting one extra day, not a long weekend. Because you still have the normal tasks you do each weekend. Once you understand how much actual time you have then you can start to manipulate it. And a plan will help you to maximize your high energy times of the day. If I'm being generous, this long weekend will realistically result in 12 hours of time to complete projects. 4 Steps to Planning Your Long Weekend So the first thing you need to do is make a list. Start at your front door, walk through your house, and write down all the things you would do around your house if you were going to put it on the market next week.  I always encourage painting projects because historically paint is on sale for Labor Day. I'll be doing yard work and garage work as I shared in this episode to see how I am applying these 4 steps in my planning.  Then narrow down that list to what you will actually try to accomplish Labor Day weekend. Two stars next to the thing that you want to complete no matter what and one star next to the next thing you would like to accomplish. Simultaneously as you narrow down your list you will start making decisions. You may realize you need to clear out your car to transport something and you can decide where the things in your car, currently, will go so you can do this project. You will decide the colors you want to paint before you go to the store to buy it. Or maybe you need to ask someone else some questions to complete the project. Because I am looking at yard and garage work I am also considering the time of day and when it will be hot. Now that you have narrowed down the list and mentally prepped for the projects, you need to get the supplies you will need. Don't wait till the long weekend hits to get the supplies. You will use your high energy times at the store and take away time from completing the project. And lastly, eliminate normal weekend tasks. When I think about my yard work and garage work I want to get done Labor Day weekend, I think about my laundry and food related responsibilities.  I will plan pizza for Friday night as I watch Grayson play in the kiddie pool while I pick up sticks and weeds from the yard. We will use paper plates this weekend, what planned neglect can you implore? I will start my laundry Thursday night so I am not trying to switch the laundry on Saturday with my dirty hands from yard work.  I want you to even think about your Sunday Basket time.  This weekend maybe you can do double work to reduce your Sunday Basket time Labor Day weekend.  These four steps help you to realize the time you actually have. Reduce responsibilities eating up this extra day that you want for a project.  And reduce friction on project day. Plan your time and maximize your capacity.  EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® Labor Day Checklist Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter  Did you enjoy this episode?

    In today's episode on Why September 1st Is New Year's Day, Erin Bradley shares: Why she's been treating September 1st as New Year's Day since 2014, and how the Labor Day to Memorial Day marketing rhythm ends the January panic for good The story of her friend, a single mom with a 2-year-old and a 2-week-old living in her mom's basement, who closed 8 deals in 90 days and then committed to never working summers ("I sleep until 10, and then we go to the pool") Why "whatever comes after because is fear," and how the life you want is on the other side of one aligned decision The first September experiment: from 2 closings in August to 12 closings in December 2014, 8 more in January, and a business that doubled from $18M to $38M in volume in 2015 The myth that got debunked: "there's no business in the winter" The lighthouse principle: most of your business shows up out of the blue, so the only thing we script is how we manage and share our energy ("the ships come to port when the lights are on, and we turn the lights on from within") The 25% rule: 25% of people will love you no matter what, 25% never will, and 3 out of 4 people are not your right fit, so if it doesn't feel like a hell yes, it's a pass The garden analogy: uprooting what drains you and planting the hell-yes relationships Why the business is inconsistent because we are inconsistent, and how better systems, boundaries, and support create consistency Enough Already, Erin's 8-day autumn reset (September 21-30): nervous system regulation, who is your who, scheduling and boundaries, systems and automations, and enlisting help without fear Getting in the room in person: the WMN Soulful Summit in Scottsdale, October 21-24 Why "safe means same," the breakup tipping point, and how the decision to bet on yourself changes the timeline of your life About Erin Bradley Erin Bradley is a speaker and business coach, bestselling author, and host of the real estate podcast Pursuing Freedom.

    Labor Day is just around the corner, but is the freight market ready for the traditional fall surge? On this episode of FreightWaves Today, we break down the latest signals across trucking, rail, freight technology and the broader supply chain. We cover the proposed Union Pacific–Norfolk Southern mega-merger, a wave of freight and logistics bankruptcies, and new federal pilot programs that could give truck drivers more flexibility with hours of service.Then, we dive into the growing battle between Highway and Motive over ELD data access — and what the dispute could mean for small carriers, brokers, fraud prevention and access to freight. AVRide Chief Commercial Officer Sergei Kirillov joins the show to discuss autonomous vehicles, delivery robots, robotaxis, college-campus deliveries and what it will take for autonomous delivery to expand into more cities and suburban markets. We also examine the latest SONAR freight data heading into Labor Day, including tender rejection rates, spot rates and whether the anticipated peak-season surge is finally beginning to emerge. Plus, Trains Editor Bill Stephens joins from the North Carolina Transportation Museum to discuss Mexico's growing rail market, Grupo México's innovative rail-ferry operations and the technology and security measures being used to combat cargo theft. And in Freight Expectations with Matt Leffler, we tackle organized cargo crime, the push for the Combating Organized Retail Crime Act (COCA), the legal risks surrounding double brokering, and how massive AI data-center construction is creating new demand for industrial freight. ⁠Follow the FreightWaves Today Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

    Welcome back to the Following Films Podcast.On today's episode, I'm talking with VFX supervisors Paul Lambert and Mag Sarnowska about their work on Project Hail Mary. The film just hit home video, so you can pick it up right now on 4K Blu-ray, DVD, or digital. Honestly, it's easily one of the best movies to come out all year, so if you haven't seen it yet, you need to change that.For those unfamiliar, the movie follows Ryland Grace, a middle school science teacher who wakes up alone on a spaceship with zero memory of who he is or how he got there. As his memory slowly comes back, he realizes he's humanity's last hope to stop an extinction-level threat that's consuming the sun. He has to rely on pure science, trial and error, and an unexpected partnership with an alien engineer named Rocky to figure out a way to save Earth. What makes the film work so well—and why talking to Paul and Mag was so great—is how it grounds all this massive visual scale in practical problem-solving and a genuinely compelling friendship.Before we get into that conversation, today's episode is sponsored by Universal Pictures and their new release, Disclosure Day. That one is also out now on 4K, Blu-ray, and DVD. The movie drops you right into the fallout of humanity discovering we aren't alone, focusing less on grand sci-fi spectacle and more on the chaotic, paranoid scramble of government cover-ups, media frenzy, and how ordinary people handle the rug being pulled out from under reality.The team over at Universal sent over a copy of Disclosure Day on 4K Blu-ray for me to give away to one lucky listener. If you want to win it, just send an email over to editor@followingfilms.com. Make sure you include your full mailing address in the email so I actually know where to ship the disc if your name gets pulled.Also, a quick heads-up for anyone in Arizona. I'll be out at Tucson Comic Con over Labor Day weekend, running from September 4th through September 6th. I'm hosting 13 different panels across the weekend, so if you're planning on attending, check out the schedule, come hang out, and say hello.If you enjoy what we're doing here, take a quick second to leave us a review on whatever app you're listening on, hit that subscribe button, and send this episode to a friend who loves movies.Now, let's jump into my chat with Paul Lambert and Mag Sarnowska.

    On our radar this week… Jeff takes a week off and just like that, Trump starts another war! This time with him smack-ass in the middle of it. Jeff and his bride were in Canada's Maritimes and was attacked with Canadian kindness, poutine, real beef and not diseased Argentinian horse meat, the best lobsters and oysters in the hemisphere, and the inability of artisans and merchants to ship their goods to their traditional U.S. partners – or even for me to ship purchases home, due to the economically illiterate tariffs and self-destructive imbecilic trade war with our closest cousins. Back here in the U.S.A.: Trump's war could really cost him, eh? Senate and gubernatorial races in Michigan, Wisconsin, Maine and Ohio are already being impacted by the economic turmoil spinning off Trump's latest stupidity. Too bad for John James and Mike Rogers, Porky POTUS spent much of the week focused on his issue Number One: naming things after him, including: Another effort to put his name on the Kennedy Center despite a court order, threatening to tear down the Center if he doesn't get his way; Stripping the name of a World War II hero off a new aircraft carrier, reportedly instead renaming it for him, while ordering the Navy to spend billions on redesigns of carriers so they looked like World War II carriers and revert to outdated steam-powered launch systems; Inscribing a plaque on his under-construction helipad with his signature, clearly delighted that the new granite slab outside the White House will be a great place for cocktail parties. Reportedly deciding to use his $400-million political bankroll to run an advertising blitz on the Greatness of Trump … instead of directly supporting Republican candidates. But Michigan Republicans aren't joining the Trump Name Game. At their weekend state nominating convention, none of their candidates for state office mentioned Trump even once. Their focus was putting lipstick on the pig that is the GOP record on the economy. I wish them all smashing luck as they contort themselves into cartoonish pretzels in their futile efforts to avoid being fatally tethered to Donald Trump's venereal disease-level job approval. State Republicans are also reeling from what appears to be a growing Blue Wave. The non-partisan Cook Political Report has moved two Michigan congressional races away from the GOP: in the Macomb County based 10th district, from Leans Republican to Tossup … and in the Saginaw Bay region 8th from “Lean Democratic” to “Likely Democratic.” State Democrats are sharpening their verbal axes as we approach the traditional Labor Day launch of the campaign. The Canada Trade War drew immediate fire from Lt. Governor nominee Winnie Brinks, and 10th district congressional candidate Christina Hines. Senator Elissa Slotkin, in a speech to UAW leadership, said a longer term threat posed by the Trade War is Canada's growing partnership with China on sales of EV's … and Trump then allowing those cars across the Gordie Howe Bridge. Abdul El-Sayed is highlighting the obvious challenge facing Mike Rogers in the Senate campaign: does he risk angering Donald Trump breaking with him on issues beginning with the Trump-created Iran war, and the emerging hot-button issue of Data Centers. But the possibly most ominous development of the week came from the very Trumpy Supreme Court, which has started to open the door to a federal takeover of elections. Without ruling on the merits of Trump's Post Office deciding who gets to vote, Chief Justice John Roberts gave Trump permission to begin implementing his executive order. It was all part of a bizarre week that can probably be summed up in two words: Lake America, Trump's latest Sharpie-labeled change to world maps. And we have more developments on state ballot proposals for November – both of those stories directly involving Mark. He has been on a winning streak in his election-related battles, and provides an update: what’s in, what’s out. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I Will Always Love You” The feeling is mutual.

    Gold, Bitcoin, and bonds are sending very important signals right now if you're paying attention. Today we talk about the growing concerns in the bond market, including surging Treasury yields, government intervention, persistent inflation, massive deficits, and the potential impact on mortgage rates and the housing market. We also cover recent moves in stocks, gold, silver, Bitcoin, commodities, and the dollar, with gold showing particular strength as investors seek alternatives amid bond-market uncertainty and concerns about currency debasement. We explore growing demand for precious metals, central-bank gold buying, silver's industrial demand from AI and infrastructure, and the possibility of further volatility from the paper-to-physical gold market. As always, remain cautious, watch market reactions rather than headlines, and pay close attention to what happens after Labor Day as investors return and markets establish a clearer direction. We discuss... Bond yields surged to multi-decade highs, raising concerns about inflation, government deficits, and financial stability. The U.S. Treasury intervened in the long-end of the bond market to help control rising borrowing costs. Investors are increasingly demanding higher term premiums because of massive government debt issuance and persistent deficits. Rising Treasury yields pushed 30-year mortgage rates back above 6.6%, adding pressure to an already frozen housing market. The S&P 500 has remained near the top of its trading range while the Nasdaq has largely moved sideways. Gold surged unexpectedly, with its strength potentially reflecting investor concerns about the bond market and a search for safe-haven assets. Silver has moved alongside gold, suggesting healthier momentum across precious metals than seen during previous periods of divergence. The dollar remains within a broader trading range, making its direction an important indicator of overall market health. Persistent inflation and uncertainty over Federal Reserve policy are pushing investors to reconsider expectations for interest-rate cuts. Geopolitical tensions involving Iran and potential energy supply disruptions could add further inflationary pressure through higher oil prices. Trade tensions and tariffs involving the United States, Canada, and Mexico were discussed as another source of economic uncertainty. Central-bank gold purchases, de-dollarization concerns, and demand for physical bullion are contributing to gold's strength. Bitcoin's recent rally was linked to changing regulation, global liquidity, bond-market conditions, and increased institutional access through spot ETFs. Bitcoin's price action was described as increasingly influenced by global liquidity and bond yields rather than its internal supply schedule alone.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the full show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/gold-bitcoin-and-bonds-845

    Five years ago, producer & host George Sirois released a five-part miniseries on this show, celebrating the 35th anniversary of TransFormers: The Movie. This week on Excelsior Journeys: The Road to Creativity, George has re-launched the fifth and final part of the miniseries to celebrate the 40th anniversary and upcoming re-release of the film. "'Til All Are One" features Mark Maher and Evan Brooks, two designers so inspired by the 1986 film that they would grow up to work on some of the most intricate and detailed figures in the entire TransFormers toy line: Hasbro's Studio Series.PRODUCER'S NOTE: In addition to a very spirited and fun conversation with Mark and Evan, there are some final thoughts about the film from music composer Vince DiCola, story consultant Flint Dille, and screenwriter Ron Friedman (RIP Ron). It has been a true joy revisiting these conversations, and I hope you had as much listening to them as I did. We're going to take one week off, and then we'll be back the day after Labor Day with a very special Season 13 premiere of Excelsior Journeys: The Road to Creativity, which was recorded in front of a live audience for the very first time and features three different guests.Excelsior Journeys: The Road to Creativity exists primarily as a platform for creatives of all kinds (authors, filmmakers, stand-up comics, musicians, voice artists, painters, podcasters, etc) to share their journeys to personal success.

When a planet is in a conjunction with the Sun within 17' of arc, it's called cazimi, or “in the heart of the Sun.” This cazimi period is exact at 10:03 am PDT, but is within orb of 17' arc  between 3:15 am-4:54 pm PDT. The Sun-Mercury conjunction is on the Sabian symbol 5 Virgo, A man dreaming of fairies. [6:15] Moon Report! The Pisces Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse (Aug. 27, 9:18 pm PDT) is 4°54' Pisces-Virgo.

Use this VOC Moon to set feelings aside and take constructive advice to better manage your relationships and finances. [13:40] The Moon trines Venus (Aug. 26, 2:59 pm PDT).

    Picture the last real conflict you were in. Chest tight, face hot, some part of you already gone.Did you snap? Shut down? Cave and agree to something you didn't mean?Whatever you did, it probably wasn't how you'd have told a friend to handle it. Some other version of you took the wheel.Here's the real reason: that version isn't a character flaw.

    Welcome to this month's Answer Us Back, packed full of your responses to previous episodes of Answer Me This - or as it will soon be rebranded, Could Be True/Might Be Interesting. Today's track listing:  In response to AMT420's question about illegal use of wet wipes, Eileen in Bridgewater, New Jersey sends an impassioned plea for us to consider the bidet! So, we did. We have previously considered the bidet, btw, in AMT361.  A Swedish Person successfully survived their trip to London for which they asked for advice in AMT415 - but it ended up raising more questions, about bus ads for fruit, and being constantly asked about allergies.  BJ, who in AMT414 asked about how to respond to people asking what BJ stands for, has feedback about going on vacations with your family, having listened to AMT420's contemplation of that topic WHILE ON VACATION WITH HER FAMILY. Therefore her suggestions of survival tactics are freshly tested.  Since we're discussing vacations, Sarah from Plumpton in East Sussex wants to know whether you can count yourself as having been to a country if you've just stopped off at the airport there. And the question to which we allude, about what constitutes sex, is in AMT267.  Rich in Oxford is an airline captain, so swoops in with The Actual Facts regarding AMT420's question about whether commercial planes have keys and would be easy to steal.  In AMT419, Dan in Pennsylvania asked about which British produce he could grow on his farm in Pennsylvania; this continued in the last edition of Answer Us Back; now, Alyssa in Indianapolis supplies a great suggestion, plus a recommendation for a recent episode of Gastropod about when blackcurrants were illegal in the USA.  And Margaret requests an update on the storied family houseplant which Olly mentioned all the way back in AMT258.  If AMTs 1-420 left you with lingering questions and opinions, share them with us for future episodes of Answer Us Back. And as always, send in your questions, in voicenote or written form, to answermethispodcast@googlemail.com.

In the final episode of this series where I visited the 2025 Choctaw Labor Day Festival, I'm sharing stories from festival goers about what makes this annual gathering so special. One of my favorite conversations was with my cousin, Cheryl, a descendant of Chief Mushulatubbee and part of our Coley family lineage. Cheryl shares stories about our ancestors, the close-knit Choctaw community they built, and even how family members would move the furniture out of the house so everyone could dance! For Cheryl and me, the Labor Day Festival is a place to “come home”, reconnect with family, celebrate our culture, and remember where we came from. Stick around until the very end for the bloopers. Because apparently, telling history doesn't always go according to plan. Yakoke to the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma for partnering with me on this series!

He highlights a chart showing AI-driven capital expenditures as an unprecedented share of GDP and discusses risks tied to funding costs. Citing Strategas, he notes steepening periods historically favor energy and financials over tech/communications. On politics, he sees polling and prediction markets suggesting a potential Democratic Senate flip, with Michigan pivotal, though Republicans may have a post–Labor Day spending edge. Economically, July retail sales fell 0.6%, while large tariff refunds may be supporting activity; he also flags housing affordability issues and previews Jackson Hole and upcoming Dividend Cafe content. 00:00 Welcome and Charlottesville 00:44 Market Close Recap 01:36 AI CapEx and GDP 02:59 Yield Curve Steepening 04:38 Senate Polling Outlook 07:36 Retail Sales and Tariff Refunds 09:06 Housing Affordability Chart 10:17 Fed Signals and Jackson Hole 11:39 Oil Prices and Rig Counts 12:26 Upcoming Shows and Wrap Up Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

    On this episode of Beats, Vines & Life, we're diving deep into the rhythms of Gen X culture, Italian style, and the art of coastal winemaking with Elia Pellegrini, fourth-generation owner and vintner at Aia Vecchia—an estate rooted in the heart of Tuscany's vibrant wine scene. Raised among vineyards and steeped in classic traditions, Elia brings a fresh, modern vision to his family's legacy, where old-world philosophy meets the pulse of contemporary wine, food, and lifestyle.From memories of childhood football dreams and Sunday lunches heavy with wild boar and fresh pasta, to the complexities of selling Italian authenticity and navigating global wine markets, Elia's story is a celebration of legacy, evolution, and living la dolce vita. We dive into the nuances of Tuscan cuisine, the secrets behind Bolgheri's Bordeaux-inspired wines, and why Italy's next generation—whether on the vineyard or the soccer field—is all about balancing tradition, innovation, and a little bit of rock ‘n' roll swagger.

    In this episode of FreightWaves Today, hosts Craig Fuller and Julie Van de Kamp explore key headlines and developments across the logistics, trucking, and transportation sectors. The show features discussions on the state of trailer insurance, driver recruitment and health, alongside live market analysis via FreightWaves SONAR. Andy Kuchar explains that freight brokers and logistics companies utilizing leased trailer pools are frequently exposed to unmanaged liability risks. Many traditional commercial auto policies contain exclusions for trailers when they are over the road. He points out three warning signs of coverage gaps: reliance on "contingent" coverage language, assuming a third-party driver's Certificate of Insurance protects you, and lacking a dedicated trailer policy. In our SONAR Update, we see that tender rejections have moderated around 13.5%, overall rejection metrics and spot rates remain significantly higher compared to recent years (up ~21% year-over-year). Craig and Julie characterize explain that this is typical seasonal behavior before the late-summer and Labor Day ramp-up. Jeremy Reymer introduces Project 61, a non-profit initiative created to address the alarmingly low average lifespan of commercial truck drivers (61 years old). The program focuses on practical, free lifestyle improvements for drivers centered on food/nutrition, movement, sleep/recharge, mental health, and preventative care. The segment highlights how driver health directly correlates to highway safety and accident risk reduction. In our 2nd hour, it's return of the Matt! Matthew Leffler joins Craig for an episode of Freight Expectations. The two cover the FMCSA's proposed rulemaking to codify English language proficiency as an out-of-service violation. They also dive deep into asymmetric warfare, drone technology, and potential vulnerabilities across U.S. logistics infrastructure, fuel refining capacity, and transport hubs. ⁠Follow the FreightWaves Today Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
