“Money couldn't motivate me because if you are led by money, your morals will be second….my morals come first and money is a bi-product of that. Fame is not fun.” KevOnStage We got a good one for you Pivot Family!! In this episode, Ryan, Channing and Fred sit down with comedian, entrepreneur, and creator Kevin Fredericks, known as KevOnStage, for an honest, hilarious, and heartfelt conversation about comedy, family, and carving your own lane in the entertainment industry. Kev opens up about his journey from church stages to digital stardom, the ups and downs of building a brand rooted in authenticity, and what it really means to balance faith, creativity, and business in today's world. He opens up about his relationship with his wife, Melissa, together since they were teens and still going strong almost 30 years later. Not always easy to navigate, Kev shares how he had to learn to be vulnerable and not keep emotions bundled up, especially losing his brother unexpectedly and how he was able to release his grief during dark times while finding peace in humor and faith. Turning the worst heartache of loss into laughter may be one way of coping with tragedy, but Kev prides himself on his roots and sense of community, never wavering on his beliefs to chase money. From viral sketches to building his own streaming platform, Kev shares the lessons he's learned along the way—and the moments that tested his belief in himself and how walking away from a steady job to move across country changed his trajectory. This conversation is filled with a lot of laughs, real talk, and wisdom on how to keep pivoting with purpose and always find a way to the other side.

As the world turns, a couple of things happen: 1) we grow and learn, and 2) the world changes. On this episode, inspired by a job interview question, the hosts walked through a range of thoughts and beliefs they had at one time that they no longer have today. Analytics intake forms are good…or bad? Analytics centers of excellence are the sign of a mature organization…or they're just one of many potential options? Privacy concerns are something no one really cares about…or they are something everyone cares deeply about? Voices were raised. Light profanity was employed. Laughter ensued. This episode's Measurement Bite from show sponsor Recast is a brief explanation of statistical significance (and why shorthanding it is problematic…and why confidence intervals are often more practically useful in business than p-values) from Michael Kaminsky. For complete show notes, including links to items mentioned in this episode and a transcript of the show, visit the show page.

The screen fades in on mist. The remains of Argynvostholt rise like a broken cathedral above a grey valley. Then, faintly, the sound of boots, breathing, and whispered plans. This is Session 22 — a full visual chronicle of the night our party defied the ghosts, webs, and curses of Barovia's most haunted ruin.The video podcast version of Fire in the Webs captures the energy of play in a way that only a tabletop camera can. The dice roll in frame. The players' faces shift between tension, humor, and awe. You see every movement of the miniatures on the map, every quick exchange that turns a near-death moment into triumph.The story begins with a decision: to re-enter Argynvostholt, the fallen seat of the Silver Dragon's order. Within minutes, everything unravels. Radley Fullthorn, the human Eldritch Knight, pauses to gauge the room. From above, the ceiling trembles—and from the darkness, nine spiders the size of horses descend. The table explodes with action. Dice scatter. Spells ignite. Radley casts Thunderwave, the camera catching his player's hands lifting as the blast shakes miniatures across the board. When the knight falls to poison, the scene slows. Traxidor, half-elf cleric, murmurs the words to Spare the Dying as his player leans forward over the table, eyes fixed. The room holds its breath until the roll succeeds.From there, the session ascends into exploration and unease. Through dim corridors, spectral soldiers emerge—phantoms of the fallen order. The lighting in the studio turns blue-white as Channel Divinity erupts across the map. Ghosts flee. The camera pans over character sheets: empty spell slots, dwindling health bars, notes scrawled in haste.But Barovia is never finished. Outside, under a sky that never brightens, a wagon departs and leaves behind a coffin. The engraving on its lid: Radley Fullthorn. Laughter cuts the tension. He lies down inside it, “just to see,” then climbs out and orders it burned. The table breaks into uneasy smiles. It's macabre humor born from exhaustion and survival—the real language of adventurers who have stared too long into the dark.Morning brings the final battle: animated scarecrows advancing through mist. Their eyes glow. Fire answers. The table's energy shifts from fear to exhilaration as the party wins, spent but unbroken.Visually, this episode bridges two worlds: the haunted imagination of Barovia and the tangible magic of players at the table. You can see how Dungeons & Dragons becomes more than a game—it's performance, collaboration, and living story.Fire in the Webs – Session 22 is part theater, part documentary, and part survival tale. Watch it to understand how dice and friendship can build worlds—and how courage can still burn, even in Barovia's endless night.

 Back in action for number 192! We talk about Ozempic face, Obese ICE chases, the dating benefits of mandatory military service and a hot new show that Kelly is going to develop. It's education, it's comedy, it is funky theme music... it's The Cocktale Hour!

Parshas Vayeira: Laughter of Redemption Our Parsha tells of Avraham and Sarah, who at one hundred and ninety years old, are blessed with a son, Yitzchak, “he will laugh.” The Rebbe teaches that this name, written in the future tense, reflects not laughter from disbelief, but the joy yet to come, the laughter of redemption.. In honor of Eretz Yisroel – May G-d protect our brave soldiers, comfort all who grieve, and bring healing to our nation. Dedicated in loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia.

Looking at the economy, Stephanie draws some alarming, must-know parallels to the 2008 Great Recession, breaking down the recent surge in high-profile layoffs and what it signals for your bottom line. She also tackles President Trump's frankly bananas attempts to deflect blame after the election, putting his recent economic denialism under the comedy-driven microscope it deserves. With guests political strategist Mike Nellis and the hilarious comedian Dana Goldberg!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On this Healthy Mind, Healthy Life episode, certified sexologist Mandy Hart explains why play and pleasure are not extras—they're core to mental health, nervous-system regulation, and intimate connection. We dig into trauma responses, shame, authenticity vs. performance, and simple ways to lower stress, reboot desire, and rebuild self-trust. If you want a clear, trauma-informed blueprint to bring curiosity, laughter, and embodied presence back into daily life and relationships, this conversation gives you practical steps you can use today.   About the guest  : Mandy Hart is a certified sexologist and founder of Heart's Desire: Intimacy & Relationship Coaching. She blends behavioral science with trauma-informed, somatic coaching to help clients release shame, reconnect with the body, and build honest, enjoyable intimacy.   Key takeaways: Play shifts the brain out of protection and into exploration, reducing walls that block intimacy and self-connection. Genuine fun lowers cortisol and calms the nervous system, supporting mood, energy, and healthier choices. Shame thrives on self-consciousness; small, safe acts of silliness (dancing alone, laughing at awkward moments) rebuild confidence. Laughter during imperfect moments can transform embarrassment into bonding and positive sexual experiences. Authenticity over performance: performing is fine if you enjoy it; it becomes harmful when it's a “should” that disconnects you from yourself. Start tiny: make a “feel-good” list (music, baths, nature, reading) and schedule one micro-dose of joy daily. Protect decompression time after work; short rituals (e.g., music on the commute) can reset the body before hard conversations. Presence fuels desire: think “pilot light” at your core—fun and permission help it burn brighter. Balance matters: use fun to fulfill, not to avoid; if life tasks suffer, recalibrate without moralizing. A quick practice: breathe into your belly, recall something that gives you butterflies, notice sensations, accept them without judgment.   Connect with the guest   Website: https://harts-desire.com/  (free consultation via the Scheduling tab) Email: mandy@harts-desire.com Instagram: DM via Mandy's profile   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

A Netflix rom-com jokes that Judaism "encourages me to argue." Turns out, that's not a joke—it's what set Abraham apart. A Netflix rom-com gives us a throwaway line that might be the most Jewish thing ever said on screen. When a young rabbi admits that Judaism loves two opposing opinions, his girlfriend lights up: "A religion that encourages me to argue? Love that." It's meant as a joke, but this week's Torah portion proves her right. Sarah laughs at divine promises, Abraham bargains with God over justice, and on Mount Moriah, even silence feels like protest. Judaism doesn't shy from disagreement—it builds holiness out of it. In Nobody Wants This Argument With God, we explore how faith, laughter, and dissent became inseparable in the Jewish imagination. Key Takeaways From Sarah's laughter to Abraham's debate, the Torah's heroes don't obey blindly — they question boldly. In Judaism, arguing with God isn't heresy — it's how prayer begins. Laughter is not only a survival mechanism its an act of defiance. Timestamps [00:00:00] Opening story – bingeing "Nobody Wants That" and connecting its theme of argument to the Abraham story. [00:01:22] Framing the Torah portions – arguing as Judaism's "love language." [00:02:19] Introduction to the podcast and this week's Parsha topic. [00:05:34] Beginning analysis of Genesis 18 – Sarah's laughter and disbelief. [00:08:09] Discussion of women's Torah commentary and reinterpretation of Sarah's fear. [00:12:30] Transition to the Sodom narrative – Abraham arguing with God. [00:17:41] Exploration of rabbinic interpretations that amplify Abraham's argument. [00:20:07] "Prayer as battle" – how the rabbis turned debate with God into daily practice. [00:26:13] Transition to the Binding of Isaac – silent inner arguments and faith. [00:30:44] Closing reflections – dialogue with God as Judaism's defining feature and farewell.
