Podcast Summary Carlos Garrido took a leap of faith in 2009, leaving behind the bustling world of finance in England to embrace the vibrant opportunities of Miami, Florida. His journey wasn't just about navigating new landscapes but also about mastering a language and culture that were foreign at first. Encouraged by his brother, Carlos transitioned into entrepreneurship, carrying with him the Sandler principles that had already begun to shape his perspective on personal and professional success. His story illuminates the profound impact of perseverance and connection, emphasizing how these tools helped him overcome the daunting challenges of starting anew. The definition of success is ever-evolving, and today more than ever, it transcends mere financial gain. We explore how iconic figures like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg reflect a modern ethos that prioritizes health and time freedom over ostentatious wealth. Carlos shares his enlightening experience with the 75 Hard program, a grueling yet transformative regimen that reshaped his approach to mental toughness and personal growth. This personal narrative highlights the shift from external validation to intrinsic self-worth, encouraging listeners to question deeply ingrained beliefs about success and identity. The episode rounds out with a discussion on achieving a balanced life, where both health and business aspirations find harmony. Through holistic practices such as Stoicism, journaling, and meditation, Carlos has redefined his views on masculinity and success. The integration of new fitness techniques and dietary changes, shared with family members, serves as a testament to the power of personal transformation. Amidst life's inevitable setbacks, the commitment to ongoing development remains unwavering, painting a picture of a life where professional achievements and personal well-being coexist, driving toward a future of holistic success and fulfillment. (00:02) Journey to Success Through Sandler Principles (16:43) The Mental Toughness of Success (21:06) Transformation Through Fitness and Business (37:08) Balancing Health and Business Success (00:02) Journey to Success Through Sandler Principles This chapter features a conversation with Carlos Garrido, a Sandler trainer from Miami, Florida, who shares his personal and professional journey. Originally from Manchester, England, Carlos discusses his multicultural background with a Greek mother and a Spanish father, and his initial career in finance and investment banking. He explains how he relocated to Miami in 2009 to lead business development and M&A activities in Latin America, a move that was prompted by the global emphasis on BRICS strategies. Despite not speaking Spanish initially, Carlos embraced the challenge and fell in love with Miami and the United States, eventually becoming an American citizen. He recounts how he transitioned from finance to starting his own business in Miami, with encouragement from his brother who was a Sandler client. The chapter highlights the importance of perseverance and connection in overcoming the initial challenges of entrepreneurship. (16:43) The Mental Toughness of Success This chapter explores the evolving notion of what signifies success and wealth, contrasting the 1980s' flashy displays with today's emphasis on physical health and time freedom. We examine how modern entrepreneurs prioritize fitness, highlighting billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg as examples of this shift. The conversation then transitions into a personal narrative about discovering and undertaking the 75 Hard program, a regimen aimed at mental toughness that also results in improved health. Initially resistant, I recount how repeated encounters with the program's concept, through friends and YouTube videos featuring its creator Andy Frazella, led to a transformative mindset shift. This experience underscores the importance of discipline, time management, and mental resilience in achieving personal growth. (21:06) Transformation Through Fitness and Business This chapter examines the journey of committing to a demanding 75-day program that requires daily dedication and challenges one's personal beliefs and identity. We explore how embarking on this journey required reevaluating what success means, questioning ingrained beliefs about roles as a man, father, and husband, and prioritizing personal health over economic achievements. Through self-reflection, the importance of self-concept in achieving success, especially in business and sales, is highlighted, emphasizing that one's self-worth is not solely tied to financial accomplishments. The transformative process includes overcoming cynicism and shifting the focus from external validation to an intrinsic sense of self-worth and personal value. This narrative illustrates the profound impact of challenging and reshaping one's identity and beliefs on personal growth and fulfillment. (37:08) Balancing Health and Business Success This chapter explores the journey of personal and professional growth, focusing on the transformation in mindset and lifestyle. We discuss the importance of integrating holistic practices like journaling, meditation, and philosophical exploration, particularly with Stoicism, to reshape perspectives on success and masculinity. Emphasizing the value of physical health, the narrative highlights adopting new fitness techniques and dietary habits, supported by resources like Men's Health and YouTube tutorials. We reflect on the continuous ambition for business growth, noting the significant progress made and future aspirations. The journey is one of balancing professional achievements with personal health and family life, sharing the challenges and rewards of weight loss and strength training, particularly in partnership with family members. Despite setbacks, the commitment to ongoing development remains steadfast, aiming for holistic success and well-being.

During the Cold War, “the man on the spot” could wield great power over US policy in Europe, Korea, Africa, Latin America, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Iran. Raising the question: Did the influence of individual espionage agents lead to costly mistakes?

In the first half-hour, we welcome back Leonardo Flores, to talk about the US' most recent escalation against Venezuela. Leo debunks the absurd US claims of drug trafficking, contextualizing them in a longer history of using drugs as a cover for violent escalation against nations in Latin America. Leo also talks about the remarkable critical media literacy of the Venezuelan people – something that the government has nurtured for almost 30 years via a varied and healthy media landscape that promotes independent and local media rather than a centralized corporate system. Next, Nolan Higdon comes back on the show to examine Artificial Intelligence through the lens of critical media literacy. Nolan highlights the importance of not leaning on AI for foundational skills such as reading comprehension and critical media literacy, notes that AI is not some superior intellect but rather a system built by vehemently anti-democratic and indeed anti-human minds. Leonardo Flores is a co-founder of the Venezuela Solidarity Network. He previously worked as an organizer with Code Pink and as an analyst with the Venezuelan Embassy in the U.S. Leonardo was born in Venezuela and maintains close ties to the social movements that have transformed the country over the past twenty-six years. Nolan Higdon is an author, a lecturer in the Education Department at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and a frequent guest on the Project Censored Show. Among his recent books is Surveillance Education.   The News That Didn't Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy. The post The US Vendetta Against Venezuela / Demystifying AI appeared first on KPFA.

Hey hey, it's us—Hi! Back again to wrap the week with you, from sunny Los Angeles, where summer lingers while autumn creeps in elsewhere. In this special extended episode, we dive deep into the realities shaping our world—from political chaos and cultural uncertainty to the hopeful power of entrepreneurial thinking that continues to fuel our pragmatic optimism.This week, we sat down with our brilliant friend and mentee Paco Valencia, live from his clinic in Morelia, Mexico, for an eye-opening conversation about the future of prosthetics. Imagine this: over 40 million people worldwide live with prosthetic limbs, yet the design behind them has remained practically untouched for 6,000 years. Paco and his team are changing that narrative—using AI and modern manufacturing to reimagine what's possible for mobility, comfort, and human dignity.But that's just one part of this powerful journey.We also reflect on other inspiring voices from across the globe: from Tijuana's economic revitalization with Adriana Eguia, to rethinking venture capital with Allison Byers, to climate investment in Spain, fintech in Mexico, small business support in Virginia, and clean energy innovation that's leading the way across Latin America. Each conversation is a reminder that while parts of the world feel like they're spinning out of control, there are extraordinary people building a better one.This isn't just a podcast. It's a blueprint for hope.So if you're looking for real talk, meaningful insights, and a little bit of soul to close out your week—pull up a chair. Let's spend some time together.

A woman once referred to only as “Minor Victim 1” is one of several Jeffrey Epstein victims demanding Congress compel the release of investigative files. Florida officials call for the end of vaccination mandates in the state. And a military strike on a boat allegedly carrying drugs out of Venezuela raises questions about the Trump's administration's muscular stance toward Latin America.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In This Episode This week on Breaking Banks we're continuing our series on Brett King's new book, Branch Tomorrow, featuring interviews with contributing authors: Bruno Diniz, Efi Pylarinou,Jim Marous, Paolo Sironi, and Richard Turrin. Each brings specialty in different markets giving Branch Tomorrow a multi-perspective look at banking, banking culture, and the future of financial services across the globe, from the US to India, Europe, China, and Latin America. In this episode, Branch Tomorrow co-author Efi Pylarinou, a leading global fintech and tech influencer, shares insights on branch transformation from the European zone. Efi delves into some of the uniqueness, challenges and opportunities of the European market -- a great example of diversity and different ways of operating -- one item of note, the large Post Office networks that can essentially compete with fintechs and offer services. In looking at the evolution of banking and to the future of banking in Europe, Efi and Brett focus on the transition from traditional banking to digital-only models like Revolut, breaking down what makes them successful, taking a close look at the economics of the different models. They also explore how AI is reshaping customer experiences in banking, the impact of cashlessness, and the social implications of some of these changes. How will regulatory challenges shape the future of banking? Will shared banking spaces emerge as a solution for branches? In the next five years, in Europe and globally, will we see new disruptors that will challenge existing disruptors from the last decade? The future of banking is here. Branch Tomorrow, a must-read for future-focused leaders dedicated to thriving in the digital transformation of finance -- available mid-September. Get a sneak peek by listening now!

In Containing Decolonization: British Imperialism and the Politics of Race in Late Colonial Burma (Manchester University Press, 2025), historian Matthew Bowser examines British imperialism in late colonial Burma (from roughly 1929 to 1948) to study how imperialists attempted to protect their strategic and economic interests after decolonization: they did so by supporting ethnonationalism. This process resembles the Cold War tactic of “containment,” and the book makes a crucial contribution to the study of modern imperialism by demonstrating the continuity between “containment's” late- and “neo”-colonial manifestations. For Burma/Myanmar, it also explores the origin of the present-day military junta's racial regime: it emphasizes the protection of the ethnoreligious majority from ethnic minority insurgency. The Rohingya people are currently suffering a genocide because of this racial regime. As the country endures civil war against the junta, this book highlights how ethnonationalists in the late colonial period first promoted this racial regime to seize power and prevent revolution, a process supported by British imperialists for their own ends. Matthew Bowser is Assistant Professor of Asian History at Alabama A&M University. Brad H. Wright is a historian of Latin America specializing in postrevolutionary Mexico. PhD in Public History. Asst. Prof. of Latin American History at Alabama A&M University. Learn more about your ad choices.

In Containing Decolonization: British Imperialism and the Politics of Race in Late Colonial Burma (Manchester University Press, 2025), historian Matthew Bowser examines British imperialism in late colonial Burma (from roughly 1929 to 1948) to study how imperialists attempted to protect their strategic and economic interests after decolonization: they did so by supporting ethnonationalism. This process resembles the Cold War tactic of “containment,” and the book makes a crucial contribution to the study of modern imperialism by demonstrating the continuity between “containment's” late- and “neo”-colonial manifestations. For Burma/Myanmar, it also explores the origin of the present-day military junta's racial regime: it emphasizes the protection of the ethnoreligious majority from ethnic minority insurgency. The Rohingya people are currently suffering a genocide because of this racial regime. As the country endures civil war against the junta, this book highlights how ethnonationalists in the late colonial period first promoted this racial regime to seize power and prevent revolution, a process supported by British imperialists for their own ends.

Archives are not only sources for history but have their own histories too, which shape how historians can tell stories of the past. In Managing Paperwork in Mamluk Cairo: Archives, Waqf and Society (Edinburgh UP, 2025), Daisy Livingston explores the archival history of one of the most powerful polities of the late-medieval Middle East: the ‘Mamluk' sultanate of Cairo. Relying on surviving original documents, Livingston focuses on archival practices connected to waqf, the pious endowments that became one of the characteristic features of late-medieval Islamic societies. By centering a close exploration of documents connected to processes of endowment and property exchange, this book sheds light on a startling culture of document accumulation that was shared by the diverse social groups involved in founding and managing endowments: sultans and emirs, qadis, legal notaries, and scribes. Emphasizing the documents' life cycles from production, to preservation, to disposal and loss, it argues for the use of surviving documents to tell their own archival histories. Daisy Livingston is Associate Professor of Medieval Islamic History in the Department of History at Durham University. As a historian of the medieval Middle East, in particular Egypt between the tenth and sixteenth centuries, her research focuses on various aspects of documentary culture, especially histories of archiving. Jen Hoyer is Technical Services and Electronic Resources Librarian at CUNY New York City College of Technology. She is co-author of What Primary Sources Teach: Lessons for Every Classroom (2022) and The Social Movement Archive (2021), and co-editor of Armed By Design: Posters and Publications of Cuba's Organization of Solidarity of the Peoples of Africa, Asia, and Latin America (2025).

Adrian Quesada is probably best known as one of the two co-founders of the psychedelic soul band Black Pumas, but the guitarist and producer has also been part of Grupo Fantasma, Brownout and Ocote Soul Sounds.  Lately, he's also been pursuing another musical project called  Boleros Psicodélicos, an homage to the phenomenon of balada music that blossomed throughout Latin America between the late ‘60s and early ‘70s. Balada is “a refined collision of bossa nova smoothness, Beatlesque psychedelia and torrid boleropathos” which “used art-pop instrumentation (mostly strings and harpsichords)”, and “employed songs about heartbreak and longing as a means to transport the listener to an opulent, cinematic fantasy world”, (Bandcamp). Quesada has recently released the second volume of these modern takes on vintage Latin pop sounds, all featuring some of the leading voices in modern Latin alternative music. Quesada, his band, and guest artists -L.A. singer and producer Angélica Garcia, Grammy-winning Puerto Rican singer-songwriter iLe (Ileana Cabra), and violinist and vocalist Mireya Ramos (of the all-female Mariachi band Flor de Toloache) – all perform in-studio. Set list: 1.

Guest: Rafa Conde — Founder & CEO of Man of War, former DEA/Narcotics/SWAT officer, best-selling author, host of the Men of War podcast (35M+ downloads), elite leadership coach, and multimillion-dollar entrepreneur. Early Hustle & Lessons: Rafa's first money came washing cars at age 11, developing a bias for action, self-reliance, and learning to execute before overthinking or overplanning. Early entrepreneurship shaped his long-term drive to “just do it” — a theme he now instills in men seeking discipline and legacy. Wall Street to Law Enforcement: Spent 12 years on Wall Street, managing nearly $1B in assets, establishing himself as a high-producer and eventually running his own branch. Left for a greater sense of purpose, becoming a police officer at age 32 in one of the nation's most violent cities, later working narcotics, SWAT, and ultimately as a DEA task force officer. Rafa describes giving up material wealth and status and embracing “starting from scratch” as crucial for true growth and reinvention. Law Enforcement, Humility, & Adversity: Made his mark through work ethic and results—leading felony arrests and serving in specialized units (including undercover work and federal task force roles). Learned from major setbacks: lost home, cars, and income in the transition, but rebuilt through tactical training contracts and martial arts instruction, showing lasting resilience and adaptability. Reinvention: Founding Man of War: Later transitioned to building Man of War—a movement and business designed to restore “the warrior mindset” and healthy masculinity through high-impact events, masterminds, and coaching. His podcast "Men of War" surpassed 35 million downloads by championing direct, honest conversations about discipline, code, and male brotherhood in today's world. Philosophy on Masculinity & Leadership: Key problem: Modern men have grown soft, seeking comfort and avoiding adversity; true growth requires struggle, competition, and camaraderie. Emphasizes leading by example—“If you can't lead yourself, don't expect to lead anyone else.” Rejects “false leadership” based on rank—respect must be earned by character, resilience, and the courage to do hard things. Recommends men start with competition (e.g., martial arts) and purposely place themselves in uncomfortable situations to develop confidence, grit, and self-mastery. Programs, Reach, & What's Next: Man of War now provides elite events (“Crucible”), global masterminds (“House of Kings”), and a fast-growing father-son program (“Odyssey”), expanding across the US, Latin America, Europe, and beyond. Rafa continues to consult for top companies and help men build modern legacies based on strength, discipline, and honor. Connect with Rafa Conde & Man of War: Website: https://www.rafajconde.com/

In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the return of the deadly screwworm parasite to U.S. soil, a sweeping Deep State update from the DIA to Epstein, and global headlines from Gaza, Ukraine, and Venezuela. From maggots threatening America's cattle herd to Marines steaming toward Caracas, today's brief connects domestic crises with international conflicts that could reshape U.S. policy. Screwworm Parasite Returns to America: Health officials confirm the first human case of screwworm infestation in decades, discovered in Maryland after a traveler returned from Latin America. Ranchers warn of catastrophic risks to U.S. beef herds, recalling outbreaks from the 1930s. Critics blame Biden's open border surge through Panama for allowing the parasite north. As Bryan puts it, “This screwworm crisis was preventable but Democrats and Joe Biden allowed it to happen.” Deep State Update — DIA, Bolton, and Epstein: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth fires DIA chief Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse after his team relied on Iranian disinformation to downplay Trump's strike on Tehran's nuclear program. Senator Mark Warner blasted the move, warning of “a dangerous habit of treating intelligence as a loyalty test.” The FBI raids John Bolton's home and office in a classified documents probe, raising questions about why Biden-era DOJ buried the case. And newly released Ghislaine Maxwell testimony insists, “The President was always a gentleman in all respects,” while controversially minimizing Bill Clinton's Epstein ties as “one journey.” Gaza Hospital Strike Kills Civilians and Journalists: Israeli missiles hit Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza, killing at least 20 including reporters for Reuters and the AP. Prime Minister Netanyahu's office calls it a “tragic mistake” as an investigation begins. Israeli media demand answers, asking, “How did this happen?” Ukraine Unveils 1,800-Mile Missile: President Zelenskyy announces Ukraine has built a long-range missile dubbed “The Flamingo” capable of striking deep into Russia. “We can and will strike deeper into Russian territory without the permission of Washington,” he declared, though Trump's Pentagon has quietly ordered U.S. weapons held back from long-range use. U.S. Marines Deploy Toward Venezuela: The 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit sails south with destroyers, submarines, and aircraft in what may be preparation to topple Nicolás Maduro's regime. Trinidad and Tobago's prime minister backs Trump, declaring, “No amount of Trump Derangement Syndrome tantrums will prevent my government from welcoming assistance to combat the terrorist drug cartels of Venezuela.” Bryan suggests the timing may connect to Trump's deportation strategy under the Alien Enemies Act.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32   Keywords: screwworm parasite Maryland case, Biden border crisis cattle, U.S. beef industry threat screwworm, Pete Hegseth fires DIA chief, Jeffrey Kruse Iran strike intel, Mark Warner loyalty test quote, John Bolton FBI raid classified docs, Ghislaine Maxwell Epstein testimony Trump Clinton, Gaza hospital missile strike journalists killed, Zelenskyy Flamingo missile 1800 miles, Trump Pentagon Ukraine ATACMS, U.S. Marines Venezuela deployment, Trinidad Tobago supports Trump, Nicolás Maduro drug cartel regime, Alien Enemies Act deportations

I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.   American Conservative University Podcast (ACU) is not an official representative for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

Today, our interdenominational Christian ministry serves the poor in primarily 17 countries throughout the Caribbean and Latin America. Thanks to our faithful donors, we are able to provide food, housing, healthcare, education, fresh water, emergency relief, micro-enterprise solutions and much more. We are proud to have fed millions of people and provided more than 15.7 billion dollars in aid. Our faith inspires us to be an organization built on compassion, and motivated by love. Our mission is to bring relief to the poorest of the poor in the countries where we serve. We strive to reflect God's unconditional love. It's a sacrificial love that embraces all people regardless of race or religion. We believe that we can show His love by serving the “least of these” on this earth as Christ challenged us to do in Matthew 25. We pray that by God's grace, and with your support, we can continue to bring relief to the suffering and hope to the hopeless. --------------------------------------------------------
