The show starts with a review of the 2026 Nissan Leaf, which Benjamin tested out in the most wintery of conditions. How did the already limited range keep up with the low temperatures? And what about its handling of the snowy roads? Benjamin shares his experiences and more in this somewhat affordable EV. Then Sami tests out one of the bigger SUVs out there, the 2025 Ford Expedition Tremor. Able to haul 8 passengers and deal with off roading, this big truck-based family hauler has some cool new tech to discuss, and some worth nitpicking. Finally the show ends on a discussion about Mazdas new approach to their cars, namely cost cutting. Are they the only ones? Thanks for listening!

In today’s episode of the Peskies Pest Control Podcast, Michael and Travis discuss mosquito treatment and prevention for your Birmingham, Alabama property! Podcast Transcript: Michael Wienecke Hey. So here today on the Peskies Pest Control Podcast, we are talking about mosquitoes, I feel like spring is in the air. I woke up for the last couple of days with my nose a little snotty and sniffly, and it’s just getting hot. Travis? Travis McGowin Don’t even I’m not ready. No, I’m not I refuse to give up winter. You know, no matter how brutal it actually was at times over the last couple of weeks, I’m still holding on to hope that there’s some kind of residual that’s going to come back and, you know, actually show itself again. Because I, spring and summer are not my most favorite times of the year. Michael Wienecke I am feeling that right now. I was taking my kids to school this morning, and I just, it just feels a little humid out, a little too humid for what it what it should be. Travis McGowin For February. Yes. Michael Wienecke Yes, yes. So you said we were, I know we were talking earlier. You said you saw some mosquitoes yesterday already. Travis McGowin Right, right. I had a customer whose house I went to shortly after four o’clock yesterday afternoon. And as I was getting my products ready and my sprayers to go treat their house, yes, I had mosquitoes buzzing around my head already. And like I said, it’s only February. Michael Wienecke Well, as we’ve seen them, we’ve seen them in December. You know, I’ve been deer hunting before and seen them in a climber so, you know, right there in December, so perfect. I mean, even even in February. Let’s talk about some ways to just help customers, not get rid of them, but just stop them from from being so so bad at their property, far as you know, getting the water, you know, diverted away from their house, like all that kind of stuff. Travis McGowin Right, so, you know, for those that may or may not know, mosquitoes breed in standing, stagnant water. So they, you know, they land on top of the surface of the water surface. Tension holds them so they don’t sink, and they basically deposit their eggs onto the stagnant water. And it can be, you know, as much water as inside of a tire that’s been left there and filled up with water from rain for a while, or it can be as little water as a cap full from, you know, a soda bottle. It doesn’t take a whole lot of water for them to actually be able to reproduce and so it really takes a lot of diligence on part of the customer, a lot of effort on part of the customer to make sure that they do not have standing water sources in their yard, and you and I have both seen it before, these things can range anywhere from, like I said, tires to just trash that’s holding water. Got a lot of customers that live around the lake that cover their boats or their jet skis with tarps. Yeah, the tarps just completely hold the water, and they don’t go drain the water off after a rain, and it just collects and then leaf litter, and that leaf debris that gets in there just makes it even more attractive for them. For a stagnant source, just five gallon buckets full of rain water, rain barrels. People that have rain barrels that collect water from their gutters. Clogged gutters. That’s another big one. Leaf litter and gutters clogs it and it holds water. You know. Just think about it, if you had a gutter on the edge of your porch where you like to go and enjoy yourself and sit out in the evenings or what have you, and you’ve got standing water because it’s not draining Well, the mosquitoes are just breeding right there and then coming down and eating you alive. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Like you mentioned earlier, incomplete drainage in yards. Maybe it’s also an area that not only does it not drain, but it doesn’t get a lot of sunlight, so it never dries out. French drains in yards where you’ve got the drain in the ground, some of those don’t empty all the way, and you just, I mean, you just be creating the next breed of mosquitoes coming through your property. Michael Wienecke Well, that’s what I was going to talk about, hidden, hidden places that people wouldn’t think about. I mean, we’ve seen problem accounts, or, you know, what we’d consider a problem account, where they have a bunch of basins in their yard, all that water is going in there, and it’s hidden. You don’t see all the water that’s just caught in that basin, where it’s, you know, a slow drain and all that kind of stuff. I’ve never understood why they did that. I don’t know why it wouldn’t just be a faster drain, to keep it from getting clogged, I guess. Travis McGowin Yeah, there’s, there’s just so many places that water can be, water can stay and be held in people’s property, and a lot of them can be just overlooked. You know, we’ve got some storage buildings in my yard. I don’t go behind them very often. And and so if I were to stick a bucket back there, even a bucket flipped over that will hold water on the bottom of the bucket that’s sitting up in the air. I mean, that’s enough water to breed hundreds and hundreds of mosquitoes and to really cause a problem, and to really make control efforts a little more challenging, Michael Wienecke 100%. @ell, and I’m glad you said the control. So let’s talk about one way that we, you know, help with controlling the water that we can’t control. So we’re flipping over buckets. We’re moving over. You know, I always bird bass need to be changed out. I would say, you know, weekly, every two weeks, something like that, so it doesn’t build up a stagnant pool. But the control with that IGR is really key on the drains in the yard, such such as that matter of getting rid of that problem, because you can’t control that. Travis McGowin Right, And for those watching listening, IGR stands for “insect growth regulator”, so we use a mixture that has a couple of different active ingredient products in there. And what that IGR does is it is a long term game in terms of mosquito control. So picture, you have a technician come to your house. They treat your lawn and landscape areas with a liquid mosquito treatment that’s got that IGR in it. And so let’s say, after that treatment is dry, the technicians gone, the mosquito lands on the underside of leaves that has this IGR on it. Well, not only is that mosquito now contaminated with that IGR, which is going to take an effect on that mosquito and slowly mess with it to where it can’t breed anymore, but then it’s going to go land on a water source, and it’s going to contaminate that water source too, so that other mosquitoes that touch it could be contacting the IGR, and then those mosquito larva that are already in the water, it should mess with their development, so that they don’t even develop all the way into a biting mosquito as they go and continue to develop. So it’s a great product, and it’s a great addition to a mosquito control program. Michael Wienecke Oh yeah, I’d say its a must have, because if you’re not controlling that, that life cycle, if you’re just killing the adult mosquitoes as they buzz around and get under this shaded area, these trees and, you know, decks and all that, then you’re only taking care of one half of it, or not even less than one half. Travis McGowin Right, and we’re, you know, not only were we applying the IGR in our mixture that we’re using along with an adult aside that’s going to kill mosquitoes on contact as well, but we’re also going back to those stagnant water sources our technicians actively are looking for those stagnant water sources. And yes, you know, you know how it is that there’s some times where those sources can’t be drained or dumped, or, you know, the water be removed so that they’re no longer a breeding site, especially when you talk about areas of a yard that hold a lot of water, that don’t drain properly, or don’t dry. So we also use another product called a larvicide. So Michael, elaborate for the listeners, about a larvicide. Michael Wienecke Yeah, so a larvicide. So you’re going to go around the property, and you’re looking for any areas that you cannot control the water flow, you know, like we said, if you see a bucket, we’re going to can flip that over a bird bath, we can change that out, but something that we can’t, such as a drain in your backyard, front yard, we’re going to put that larvicide in there. It’s good for 30 days. So any breeding mosquitoes that breed in that water, those eggs will never develop into a lot of mosquitoes. Travis McGowin Right, and so all these things are things that can be done on your property. But Michael, as I’m sure you’ve seen before, I and I can give an example, I had a customer who we were trying to do mosquito control at, and it was okay, but it wasn’t as great as it could be. And what we discovered is that the neighbor directly behind that customer’s property, who we weren’t treating, we didn’t have any mosquito service at that customer’s property behind them, they had an old above ground swimming pool. Michael Wienecke It’s always a swimming pool. Travis McGowin It is with about maybe, I would say, a foot or so, maybe a little more of water in it. And the water was a beautiful shade of green, with all types of leaf litter and trash and debris in it. And so, I mean, it was just a haven for these mosquitoes to breed in. And, you know, unfortunately, we can’t control what it is the neighbors doing. Michael Wienecke That’s true. So in terms of control, you know, we like to say an 85 I like to say an 85% to 95% reduction of mosquitoes is a win, because you can still have some mosquitoes, but you’re going to get rid of the majority of the mosquitoes and be. Able to enjoy that backyard. I mean, Travis, you treat your house. I treat my house. We’ve we’ve got some pretty good standing water issues. I know I do. I know in some areas where it rains in your house, you get some little bowl issues in the yard. So I would not, not treat my yard in the summertime. Travis McGowin Right, my kids get torn up by mosquitoes, if I don’t. But you know, that is the good thing about our mosquito control program, especially when you really factor in the use of that insect growth regulator. Like you said, 85% to 95% reduction is great. That’s huge, especially when you deal with some of the amount of mosquitoes that I’ve seen before. I mean, when you walk outside, you’re there for less than a minute, and you’ve got, you know, six, eight, ten, mosquitoes buzzing around your ankles and your feet before you even, you know, can take in the outside that you just walked out to, but that IGR is really great, because obviously mosquitoes fly. They can kind of go wherever they want to, but if they contact that IGR and then, let’s just say that the neighbor across the street has one tire sitting against a storage shed in their yard that’s collecting water that’s become this breeding site that they haven’t addressed, well now There’s that potential that that mosquito could spread that IGR to that breeding site and hopefully render it less effective, or completely ineffective for mosquito breeding, and in that way, kind of extend that treatment over somewhere where obviously we can’t go physically apply something. So it really is kind of a nice additive to put, to have in there, to try to help control because, I mean, you know, no matter how much mosquito control you can do there at the end of the day, like we said, they fly, so they’re not very heavy, so the wind can blow them to, I mean, they can be pushed around and all that too. So I don’t think anybody can really ever promise a 100% reduction in mosquitoes just because of the way that they are. However, I think it’s definitely reasonable to think 85 to 95% reduction for most of the properties we deal with. Michael Wienecke I think that, yeah, I think that’s great. And something that a lot of people miss, too, is gutters. I mean, over in Birmingham, Montgomery, we’ve got a lot of trees, a lot of trees, and over the winter, you know, some people do. Some people don’t get all the gutters cleaned out, or don’t even know that they’re they’re clogged and all that stagnant water. There’s really not a product in the world that’s going to take care of that. Travis McGowin Well, you know, not to, not even going to try to be hypocritical here, because I have two areas with with gutters. Oh, me too, down spouts on my my own awnings on my house, three areas, actually, and it is one of my least favorite chores in the world to get up there and clean them. So much so that, I mean, we even, we even had a rainstorm come in one day, and the gutters were so clogged and the downspouts were so slow at draining that the water ended up actually gushing over the side of the gutter and like bowing it. And just because of the weight of the water, it was starting to bow one of the little beams that holds my top of my porch, or owning up. Excuse me, my owning up. And so, yeah, I hate it that much, and I’ve tried to become a little bit more diligent about it, but it is. It’s really something that you need to stay on top of to make sure that there’s no breeding site up there, because it’s just not immediately in your thought process, because it’s not immediately in your view Michael Wienecke Well, and you can go off and that leads to termite damage on a pest control, it can lead to carpenter ant damage. It can lead to a lot of other issues besides just mosquitoes. Travis McGowin Yeah, absolutely. So it’s like that old saying, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. You know, you can, you can get a lot done by just being diligent and eliminating those water sources from around your property, you can get a lot done, and your family will thank you. Your neighbors will thank you. Don’t, don’t be that bad neighbor that’s got 25 tires with all water in them, you know, stacked up, and you’re breeding mosquitoes like, you know, be that good neighbor that’s helping the problem, because everybody wins, everybody benefits. I mean, mosquitoes are known to carry many different viruses that cause many different health hazards for you, for your pets. I mean, Zika virus, all those things you know, your pets can get heart worms. They get them from mosquito bites. So there’s just a lot of benefits from keeping these insects away from your property. Michael Wienecke Well, and didn’t we see some some? Was it encephalitis last year? Travis McGowin Yeah, I think it was going around. I mean, you know, some of the lesser known things that people you know might not be necessarily aware of, like I said, Zika virus, yellow fever, dengue, malaria, is a big one, especially in some of your overseas countries, West Nile virus, all of these things, like you said, encephalitis, and they all come from just a mosquito bite, and it’s a strong possibility that you know they could make you your family or your animals sick.

In the fourth episode of Down the Garden Path's "Houseplant Chat" series, Joanne discusses the basics of fertilizing houseplants. Topics Covered When to start fertilizing Wait until days are noticeably longer (sometime after daylight savings time) when plants begin active growth again. How to read fertilizer labels (N-P-K) The three numbers represent Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K). Leafy plants may benefit from higher nitrogen; flowering plants often need more phosphorus. Choosing an "all-purpose" fertilizer Balanced blends (e.g., 10-10-10) can work for many houseplants, especially as a baseline. Three common fertilizer formats Water-soluble liquid: mix into watering can; easy to apply while watering. Granular: sprinkle on the soil surface; dissolves as you water (Joanne notes it can feel less precise). Slow-release pellets: dissolve gradually; may only need reapplying every few months. Frequency & control Liquids are immediate and routine-friendly; granular and slow-release can be less frequent but require awareness of plant needs. Start gently Use half-strength for the first few feedings at the start of the season to ease plants in. Organic vs. big-box options Joanne prefers organic options (often lower N-P-K numbers) and mentions the appeal of local/smaller brands, while acknowledging "use what you have" if it's already in your cupboard. Check expiry dates Expired fertilizer is usually not harmful—just potentially less effective. Know your special plants Spot-check care requirements for "can't-risk-it" plants: heirlooms, cuttings, orchids, sentimental favourites (she shares the example of a long-loved rubber tree). Homemade fertilizer recipes (with caution) DIY approaches (tea/coffee grounds/fish emulsion) exist, but beginners should stick to products with known N-P-K values. Takeaways and Tips Don't rush it: Start fertilizing when daylight increases (typically after daylight savings), not in the dead of winter. Half-strength first: For the first few fertilized waterings, go 50% strength to avoid shocking plants waking up from slower winter growth. Match fertilizer to the goal: Leaf growth: consider a more nitrogen-forward option. Flowering: look for a higher middle number (phosphorus). Pick a method you'll actually remember: If you're consistent with watering, liquid can be easiest. If you forget steps easily, slow-release may be safer; just add a reminder so it doesn't get missed. Follow the label (seriously): Package directions matter more than brand debates. Research your "VIP plants": If a plant is sentimental or pricey, do a quick care check so you're not guessing at feeding needs. Use what you have, smartly: If you find old fertilizer, check the expiry date; it may still work, just a bit weaker. Keep it measurable: If you're newer to houseplants, prioritize fertilizers with clear N-P-K numbers over DIY mixes until you've got a baseline routine.

Three years ago I interviewed my friend and occasional ACL contributor Gabe Bogart for Episode 29, our anniversary episode. We had such a good time we talked about doing a podcast called SLEPT ON IT, and so I sat on this episode for years, waiting for us to get off our asses and make it happen. No one ever asked why episode 30 was missing, so it feels right for an episode with this title to turn up years later. We discuss adventurous listening, the dangers of nostalgia, the hip hop renaissance of the 2020s, and much more.

Journey back in time some 60 million years to the Cenozoic with Dr. Ellen Currano by looking at fossil leaves. Aside from just being cool, leaf fossils can tell us a lot about the ecology of long extinct ecosystems. For instance, leaf margins can tell you about things like temperature while leaf size can tell you about precipitation. Also, looking at fossilized insect damage can reveal important insights into how climate influences herbivory. Join us for a deep dive on the myriad scientific insights fossil leaves can provide.

You'll hear how Primate's vertical lever locks and 3-piece reach let you cover most pools from one side while fitting comfortably in short beds. Then we break down the vacuum landscape. Riptide and Hammerhead remain the heavy hitters with reliable carts and power, but cordless heads like the Bottom Feeder and Shrimp now level up with a cartridge filter assembly that captures dirt down to fine microns while still gobbling leaves. If you want less setup and more clean, this change is a big win.Next, we get practical about skimming and testing. The Piranha 2 quick-flip leaf rake edges out the Red Baron for its balanced lip and easy dumps that save precious seconds on every basket-empty day. For water chemistry, the LaMotte ColorQ 2X Pro 9 delivers photometer accuracy without Spin Touch pricing, and crucially adds copper and iron testing to diagnose staining and metals from fill water. We also cover a field favorite: the Multi-Torque socket set that turns stubborn filter lids into a quick drill job and keeps knuckles intact, plus the glove setup that protects hands year-round—light nitrile-coated pairs for daily work and long-cuff Atlas 772s for cold mornings.• Carbon fiber poles with fast vertical locks and smart sizing• Cart vacs vs cordless heads for debris and dirt pickup• Bottom Feeder and Shrimp with cartridge filter assembly• Leaf rakes compared: Piranha 2 quick-flip vs Red Baron• Photometry: ColorQ 2X Pro 9 vs Spin Touch use cases• Multi-Torque sockets for faster, safer filter service• Hand protection: nitrile-coated gloves and cold-weather picks• Discounts and part numbers to make buSend us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

The Questions No One Can Answer After Dad Dies A man spends his life building a sophisticated estate plan—brilliant strategies, impeccable legal work, a network of trusted advisors, and layers upon layers of entities. His son is a lawyer. He even gets 18 months to prepare before his father passes. https://www.youtube.com/live/hCA_R52ZyrQ And yet, within days of his death, people start asking questions he can't answer. That story belongs to Josh Kanter, founder of Leaf Planner—and it's exactly why Bruce and I wanted to bring him to The Money Advantage Podcast. Because if a prepared, trained, deeply involved son can still feel “in the dark,” what does that mean for the rest of the family? That's where preserving generational wealth gets real. The Questions No One Can Answer After Dad DiesWhy Preserving Generational Wealth Requires More Than PaperworkPreserving generational wealth starts with the real erosion riskPreserving generational wealth means planning is dynamic, not a “final destination”Family governance and family wealth communication are the foundationHow to prevent generational wealth erosion with a “transparency continuum”How to talk to your kids about family wealth without creating entitlementWhat is a family office and do I need oneLeaf Planner: a family office portal built for real life, not just deathHow to organize estate planning documents for heirs without losing the storyPreserving generational wealth requires planning for advisor transitions tooA practical checklist for wealth transfer communicationPreserving generational wealth begins hereThe Real Way to Preserve Generational WealthListen to the Full Episode With Josh Kanter (Leaf Planner)Book A Strategy CallFAQ How do you prevent generational wealth erosion?When should you tell your kids your net worth?What is a family office and do I need one?How do you organize estate planning documents for heirs?How do you talk to your kids about family wealth?What is Leaf Planner? Why Preserving Generational Wealth Requires More Than Paperwork In this blog (and podcast), we're talking about preserving generational wealth in a way most families never hear about. Not just the legal structures. Not just the investments. Not just the “where are the documents?” We're talking about the part that causes the most damage when it's missing: communication, context, and continuity. You'll walk away with: A practical view of why family wealth communication matters as much as financial strategy A healthier way to think about transparency with kids (hint: it's not “tell them everything” or “tell them nothing”) A simple framework for preventing generational wealth erosion A clear explanation of what Leaf Planner is and why it's different from a spreadsheet or document vault And yes—if preserving generational wealth is your goal, you'll see why the “why” behind your plan may be the most valuable asset you pass down. Preserving generational wealth starts with the real erosion risk Bruce said something on the show that cuts straight to the heart of the issue: If you're going to have generational wealth, you have to make sure there's no erosion to that wealth. Most people assume erosion is mainly taxes, market losses, or poor returns. Those matter. But what surprises families is how often the real erosion comes from people—especially family members—who don't have shared understanding, shared language, and shared purpose. You can have the best legal instruments in the world and still lose your family unity. Josh's experience in the family office world (and inside his own multi-branch family) reinforced this: documents alone don't preserve families. And if the family fractures, the wealth typically follows. That's why preserving generational wealth is never only financial—it's relational. Preserving generational wealth means planning is dynamic, not a “final destination” Bruce also brought up another critical point: families often treat planning like you “arrive.” But wealth planning isn't a one-and-done event. It's a living system. Your assets change.Your family changes.Your kids grow up.Advisors retire.Health shifts.Life happens. Preserving generational wealth requires ongoing communication—especially before crisis hits—so your family has the muscle memory to navigate pressure without panic. Josh shared a line that stuck with me: don't make decisions at dusk—when you think you can see, but you can't. That's what crisis does. It blurs judgment. So the goal is to practice communication in times of calm—so your family can function in times of stress. Family governance and family wealth communication are the foundation When Bruce asked Josh to boil it down—what's the one thing families must cover to avoid erosion—Josh answered with something many people don't expect: Communication. And not just “let's have a meeting.” He was talking about family wealth communication that includes: Values Shared purpose Decision-making norms Conflict navigation Role clarity (who is speaking as parent vs co-owner vs trustee vs sibling) He told a story from Jay Hughes about “switching hats.” In one moment, you might be the boss. In another, you're dad. Families get in trouble when they don't know which role is driving the conversation. That's family governance in practice—how a family makes decisions together, especially when money and relationships overlap. If you want to preserve wealth across generations, you can't ignore how your family communicates. Because the biggest “risk” isn't the market. It's misunderstanding that turns into resentment. It's silence that turns into assumptions. It's a lack of clarity that turns into conflict. How to prevent generational wealth erosion with a “transparency continuum” One of the most helpful concepts Josh shared was what he called a transparency continuum. Most parents ask, “When should we tell the kids what the balance sheet is?” As if transparency is a binary choice: Show everything Show nothing Josh pushed back: transparency isn't binary. It's a continuum. Here's what that means in real life: You can teach values before numbers.You can teach decision-making before net worth.You can teach stewardship before statements. And when families do that, the “numbers conversation” becomes far less emotionally charged—because the kids already understand the principles. I loved this because it connects so closely with what we teach: you don't start with a trust. You start with meaning. If your kids don't know why your family does what it does, a pile of assets will never feel like a blessing. It will feel like confusion—or worse, a weapon. How to talk to your kids about family wealth without creating entitlement This is where preserving generational wealth becomes deeply practical. Josh shared a personal example: he and his wife make significant annual gifts to their kids (in their 20s), and he has zero hesitation that they'll handle it wisely. Why? Because they've been having these conversations for years. That's the entire point of the transparency continuum: you prepare long before you transfer. If you want your kids to steward wealth well, start by inviting them into responsibility early: household contribution work ethic saving generosity delayed gratification clear expectations Then, over time, you build their capacity for larger stewardship. What is a family office and do I need one Josh offered a definition that's refreshing and accessible: if you have wealth that could become multi-generational, you're functioning like a family office—at some level—because coordination matters. Most families don't need a traditional single-family office. But many families do need a family office model: Someone coordinating the moving pieces A system to organize documents, accounts, entities, advisors, and responsibilities A way to reduce dependency on “the hub” person who knows everything Because here's what Josh saw after his father died: Information was either everywhere or nowhere. That's what happens when everything lives in one person's brain, one email inbox, one file cabinet, one assistant, one advisor relationship. And that's exactly where preserving generational wealth becomes fragile. Leaf Planner: a family office portal built for real life, not just death At this point in the conversation, I asked Josh to explain Leaf Planner—because many families have heard of tools that store documents or list accounts. He acknowledged those tools and even named examples like spreadsheets, Box/Dropbox/Drive, and other organizers. But he explained what Leaf Planner aims to do differently: Not just store information—map it. Leaf Planner is designed like a living “mind map” of a family's world: entities trusts assets advisors insurance properties responsibilities tasks stories the “why” behind decisions It answers questions families don't realize they'll have until they're in the moment: Why did mom pick Bruce as trustee? Why is Rachel the trust protector? Where is the fine art insurance? Which auction house relationship matters if we sell? Which advisor touches which decision? What happens if the 80-year-old lawyer retires? This is the difference between a document vault and a family office portal. A vault says, “Here are the documents.” A portal says, “Here is how the whole system connects—and why.” How to organize estate planning documents for heirs without losing the story Josh shared something that matters deeply: it's not only about preserving wealth. It's about preserving family. He said families don't end up in the news because they missed 10 basis points of performance.
Basil Camu is the author of From Wasteland to Wonder and the co-founder of Leaf & Limb, a North Carolina tree care service founded by Basil's father in 1997. On this episode of Nature Revisited, Basil recounts how what began as a traditional blue collar tree removal business transformed- through hard work, research, and dedication- into a tree care and consulting enterprise with a mission to preserve, plant, and promote trees in a way that maximizes positive benefits for members of all ecosystems. By implementing ways to work with natural systems instead of against them, Leaf & Limb has developed a blueprint to increase the health and population of trees, and thus help address pressing environmental issues and begin restoring the balance of life on Earth.

If you've spent years caring what people think, here's the truth: you're not “weak,” despite what others might tell you. This isn't another motivational video that shames you into a false sense of hyper-confidence. Instead, we explore how your mind is running a survival pattern no one taught you to interrupt. Social judgment activates the same neural networks as physical pain, and your brain predicts rejection long before anything happens. The reason we're talking about this is that up to 60% of major decisions are influenced by perceived social judgment. That is not a good statistic. In this episode, we break down the 7-step process that finally helps you: Stop performing for imaginary audiences Separate your identity from other people's reactions Build self-trust with evidence (not hype) Reframe rejection so it stops feeling personal Challenge the internal narrator that keeps you small Hold your ground in real-time moments If you're exhausted from people-pleasing, shrinking, overthinking, or shaping your life around imagined opinions, this episode will hit exactly where it needs to. ⚡️Join my annual 21-Day Brain Detox Challenge: reset your mind, break toxic thought cycles, and build real mental resilience—$50 off + a FREE surprise gift from Dr. Leaf with code WELCOME50!

Ozempic and other GLP-1 medications aren't just changing bodies. They're changing brains too. In this episode, I unpack what's really happening beneath the surface when you take medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro. Not from a place of hype or fear-mongering, but from curiosity, neuroscience, and compassion. We talk about how GLP-1s influence hunger, motivation, emotional balance, and even your sense of self, and why so many people are surprised by the mental and emotional shifts that come along with physical weight loss. You'll learn: How GLP-1s interact with dopamine and reward pathways in the brain Why some people experience emotional blunting, reduced motivation, or changes in desire What actually happens when you stop taking them, and why hunger returning isn't failure, weakness, or a lack of discipline The neuroscience behind craving, self-control, and identity What hunger really does for emotional regulation and psychological resilience And just as important, this isn't an episode telling you what you should do. Whether a GLP-1 medication is right for you is a deeply personal decision, one that only you and your doctor can make together based on your body, your health history, and your life. There is no moral hierarchy here. Using a GLP-1 is not cheating, not taking shortcuts, and not something that requires justification or shame. This conversation is about understanding what these medications do to the brain so you can make informed, self-respecting choices, whatever those choices end up being.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Caroline Leaf, PhD to explore why anxiety, overwhelm, and intrusive thought patterns aren't signs that something is broken—but signals of how the mind is responding to stress, experiences, and unresolved patterns. We break down what thoughts actually are, how experiences are wired into “thought networks,” and why the mind controls the brain—not the other way around. Dr. Leaf also explains how it's possible to redesign a memory—not by erasing the past, but by changing how it's wired and how it shows up in the present.Suggested Resources:Cleaning Up the Mental Mess PodcastDr. Caroline Leaf | WebsiteDr. Caroline Leaf | FacebookCaroline Leaf | TwitterDr. Caroline Leaf | InstagramDr. Caroline Leaf | YouTubeSwitch on Your BrainHelp in a HurrySend me a text!This episode is proudly sponsored by: Weddell WaterWe focus on the water we drink, but the water you shower with matters too—your skin absorbs more than you think, which is why I use the Weddell Water Duo Shower Filter, the only NSF-certified option that targets chlorine, PFAS, and hard-water buildup.

We are pretty psyched about our New Year's resolution, and we highly recommend not giving a f*ck to everyone. We learn why Denmark has suspended mail delivery, and we consider whether this is news of progress or a dystopian future. Sarah is extolling the virtues of an "analog bag," and we discuss what we would keep in our bags. Sarah got tricked by AI and we're mad about it. We learn about a man who was fined in England for littering, except the "litter" was a leaf that blew into his mouth and he spit out. WHAT. We learn about a senior living facility that is bringing in cosmetology students (aka a glam squad) to give the residents makeovers.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

My guest today is Josh Panko, President of Leaf Trading Cards. Josh's journey in the sports card industry started at age seven when he opened a card shop in his basement. That childhood passion turned into a remarkable career that's taken him from working at card shops as a teenager, to Upper Deck's product development team, to now leading one of the most creative trading card companies in the industry. What I love about Josh's story is how he built his career by working every angle of the business—retail, distribution, manufacturing, customer service. He learned the entire supply chain, which gave him a perspective that few in the industry have. And today, at Leaf, he's creating some of the most innovative products in the space, from on-card autographs of Hollywood legends like Al Pacino and Clint Eastwood, to unique sports card concepts that major licensed manufacturers can't touch. This conversation is packed with wisdom on hard work, taking initiative, building relationships, and staying humble even as you climb the ladder. Whether you're in the trading card world or not, Josh's lessons on career development and leadership are gold. In this episode we discuss: Why working every level of your industry early in your career creates an unfair advantage - and how Josh's experience in retail, distribution, and manufacturing shaped his leadership at Leaf The handwritten letter strategy that landed Josh his dream job at Upper Deck - and why his father's unconventional advice to FedEx overnight it to the CEO actually worked How being kind to everyone (especially people outside your department) can fast-track your career - Josh's finance department friendships got his projects prioritized over senior colleagues Why Josh would rather employees take initiative and make mistakes than wait for permission - and the Shawshank Redemption lesson about not asking to go to the bathroom The "harder you work, the luckier you get" philosophy - and how Josh turned clocking out at 5pm then returning to work unpaid into career-defining opportunities Get my free Career Pivot Playbook to help navigate your next move: www.omaid.me/newsletter Follow me on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/omaidhomayun/

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1870Dr. Caroline Leaf was a young scientist in the 1980s when she decided to swim directly against everything the medical establishment believed about the brain. Back then, if you were in a coma for more than eight hours, doctors considered the brain damage irreversible. You were written off. Done. But she met a 16-year-old girl who'd lost an entire year of school, functioning at a second-grade level, labeled a "vegetable" by her doctors. Every expert said attempting to get her back to graduate with her peers was pointless, not even worth trying. Eight months later, that girl caught up to 12th grade, finished school with her class, earned a university degree, and became exceptional at math when she'd been average before the accident. This wasn't compensation or coping strategies. This was her brain actually rebuilding itself through systematic, intentional mind management.Here's what matters for your life: you don't go even three seconds without using your mind, which means every moment you're either directing it or letting it run wild. Dr. Leaf spent decades working everywhere from apartheid-torn South Africa to Rwanda war zones to CEO boardrooms, and what she discovered is that you can't control what happens to you, but you can absolutely learn to manage your mind. Real greatness isn't about millions in the bank or fame. It's about mental peace, actual growth, being satisfied with who you're becoming. Your brain isn't fixed. Your limitations aren't permanent. And the person you think you are right now? That's just the beginning of who you could become if you learn to direct your own neuroplasticity instead of letting life do it randomly.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We begin 2026 with a question: What if the most decisive battles in our time aren't fought with ballots or bombs—but with the imagination?Watch the full conversation on YouTube Russell Moore talks with historian and author Joseph Loconte about The War for Middle-earth, his book on how World War I and World War II forged the friendship, faith, and fiction of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. Together they explore why The Lord of the Rings and Narnia weren't escapist detours from reality, but a deliberate counter-assault on cynicism, propaganda, and the will to power—written by men who had seen the trenches up close and knew exactly what modern darkness looks like. Loconte and Moore talk about why World War I has slipped from our cultural memory, what protected Tolkien from the disillusionment that swallowed so many of his peers, and why both writers keep insisting that deeds done in the dark are “not wholly in vain.” They also discuss Lewis's warning about the “cataract of nonsense” in modern media, and why genuine friendship is almost never built by chasing “community”—but by pursuing a shared mission so compelling you find yourself fighting alongside someone. Loconte shares the origin story of the Lewis–Tolkien friendship, why grace—not grit—is the hinge point in both Middle-earth and Narnia, and where to start if you've never read either author: The Screwtape Letters for Lewis, and Tolkien's short, haunting “Leaf by Niggle.” Resources mentioned in this episode: By J.R.R.

Dr. Caroline Leaf reveals that depression and anxiety aren't diseases; they're messengers trying to tell you something important. For nearly four decades, she's proven through rigorous neuroscience research that your mind controls your brain, not the other way around, and that you have far more power over your mental health than you've been told. She breaks down why the chemical imbalance theory is a myth, how traumatic experiences literally change the structure of your brain, and most importantly, how you can reverse that damage through deliberate mind management. You'll learn the exact five-step neurocycle process she's used with everyone from traumatic brain injury survivors to Navy SEALs to help them reclaim control of their thoughts and emotions. This isn't about positive thinking or pretending everything's fine, it's about embracing your pain, processing it systematically, and reconceptualizing your past so it stops controlling your future.Dr. Leaf's books:Switch on Your BrainThink & Eat Yourself SmartThe Perfect YouThink Learn SucceedSwitch on Your Brain Every Day101 Ways to Be Less StressedCleaning Up Your Mental MessHow to Help Your Child Clean Up Their Mental MessIn this episode you will:Break through the myth that you're stuck with a broken brain by learning how to direct your own neuroplasticity in just 63 daysUnderstand the exact five step neuro cycle process that reduces anxiety and depression by 81% through deliberate mind managementDiscover why your depression and anxiety are actually helpful warning signals, not brain diseases that need to be medicated awayTransform traumatic memories from toxic patterns that control you into wisdom that serves your growth and helps othersMaster the daily practice of brain building that creates mental resilience and protects you from falling back into dark patternsFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1870For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Marc BrackettDr. Joe DispenzaDr. Daniel Amen Get more from Lewis!

Thinking about starting therapy? Or just beginning your healing journey?Before you dive in, there's something most people are never told. In the first few weeks of therapy, emotions can intensify, old memories can resurface, and you may feel worse instead of better. This is known as the activation dip — and it's not a failure. It's a sign that your mind is beginning real change. In this episode, Dr. Caroline Leaf, clinical neuroscientist and mental health expert, explains the science behind why therapy can feel harder at first, what's happening in your brain during emotional healing, and how to move through this phase without quitting too soon. You'll learn how to recognize the difference between productive discomfort and burnout, how to stay regulated during emotional activation, and how to set yourself up for lasting transformation from day one.
