What if the biggest challenge facing the mortgage industry isn't rates, guidelines, or loan products—but trust?In this episode of Laugh, Lend & Eat, Fobby Naghmi sits down with Kristin Messerli, Executive Director of FirstHome IQ, to unpack the growing trust and knowledge gap between the mortgage industry and the next generation of homebuyers.Drawing from the FirstHome IQ Impact Report, Kristin shares eye-opening research about how Millennials and Gen Z approach homeownership—and why many are delaying one of the most important financial decisions of their lives.The conversation explores why today's buyers feel overwhelmed by financial information, why so few trust industry professionals to guide them, and why the future of mortgage professionals may depend less on selling loans and more on educating and advocating for consumers.They also discuss Kristin's work bringing mortgage professionals to Washington through industry advocacy efforts, and why loan officers may play a critical role in shaping housing policy and rebuilding confidence in homeownership.If the industry wants to reach the next generation of buyers, it may need to rethink what it means to be a trusted advisor.In This EpisodeWhy the mortgage industry is facing a growing trust crisisThe surprising financial literacy gap among younger buyersWhy information overload causes people to delay buying homesThe difference between selling mortgages and educating consumersWhy loan officers may need to become community educatorsThe role mortgage professionals can play in housing advocacy and policyKey TakeawaysTrust is the real barrier.Many younger consumers don't lack motivation to buy homes—they lack confidence in who to trust for guidance.Financial literacy is missing.A large percentage of Millennials and Gen Z never received meaningful education about mortgages or homeownership before entering the housing market.Education builds business.Mortgage professionals who lead with clear, simple financial education can build stronger relationships and long-term referral networks.Advocacy matters.Loan officers who engage in housing policy conversations can help ensure lawmakers understand the real barriers borrowers face.

Welcome to Day 2811 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom – Theology Thursday – Order vs. Dominion: A Key to Understanding the Uniqueness of Yahweh. Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2811 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps!   I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2811 of our Trek.   The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Our current series of Theology Thursday lessons is written by theologian and teacher John Daniels. I have found that his lessons are short, easy to understand, doctrinally sound, and applicable to all who desire to learn more of God's Word. John's lessons can be found on his website   theologyinfive.com.   Today's lesson is titled  Order vs. Dominion: A Key to Understanding the Uniqueness of Yahweh. When comparing Yahweh to the gods of the nations, the real difference is not just in how many gods are worshipped. The deeper contrast is in how Yahweh governs versus how the gods of the nations dominate. A powerful theological distinction emerges when we frame the contrast as order versus dominion. This framework not only clarifies the biblical picture of God, it also exposes the counterfeit authority claimed by pagan gods and spiritual powers. The First Segment is: Yahweh Brings Order, Not Oppression. From the opening lines of Genesis, Yahweh is revealed as the one who brings order out of chaos. The earth is described as tohu va-bohu—formless and void. Yahweh speaks, separates, and structures the world into a functioning cosmos. Light is separated from darkness. Waters are given boundaries. Time is organized into days and seasons. Life is called forth to fill the skies, seas, and land. This act of ordering creation is not about domination. It is about harmony, purpose, and flourishing. Yahweh does not need humans for labor or food. He creates them in His image and entrusts them with stewardship, not servitude. The climax of creation is rest. In the ancient Near East, rest did not mean inactivity. It meant that a god had taken up residence in his temple and was now reigning over the cosmos. Rest meant that the ordered system was functioning as it should under divine rule. Genesis shows Yahweh doing exactly that. He rests because creation is now operating properly, and He begins His reign from within His cosmic temple. This is not a withdrawal from the world, but the moment He takes the throne. The second segment is: Order That Risks Freedom: Yahweh and Free Will. Unlike the gods of the nations, Yahweh does not enforce order through control. He grants His imagers, both human and divine, genuine freedom, even when that freedom may threaten the order He established. This is a critical distinction. Yahweh's order includes moral agency. He trusts His creation enough to let it choose. He allows rebellion, not because He is powerless, but because He is just and relational. Even after Adam and Eve misuse their freedom and bring disorder into the world, Yahweh does not abandon His creation. Instead, He begins a rescue mission that will restore order without removing freedom. The same is true with the rebellious sons of God who distort their assigned roles. He permits their choices but will hold them accountable. The gods of the nations, by contrast, fear freedom. They create humans to serve, to obey, and to bring tribute. Their order is built on forced compliance, and rebellion is punished without mercy or restoration. Yahweh's order is different. It is durable enough to include freedom and gracious enough to offer redemption. The third segment is: The Gods of the Nations: Dominion Through Chaos. In the surrounding ancient worldview, the gods are not creators of peace. They are power-hungry beings who assert dominion through fear, chaos, and manipulation. Baal, for example, conquers the sea god Yam and seizes the throne through violence. In the Enuma Elish, Marduk slays Tiamat and uses her corpse to build the world. Humanity is not made in the image of these gods but to relieve the gods of labor and provide them with offerings. These gods need sacrifices, fear rival deities, and struggle to maintain their position. Their rule is unstable and based on fear, not love. Their authority must be reasserted constantly through demonstrations of strength. Where Yahweh brings peace through structure, the gods of the nations maintain power through disorder. Their dominion is rooted in chaos, not righteousness. The fourth segment is: Biblical Polemic: Yahweh Versus the Corrupt Powers. The Bible deliberately challenges these false powers. Yahweh is not a god of the storm. He is the one who speaks over the storm. In Psalm 29, His voice breaks the cedars and strips the forest bare. His authority is not derived from nature. It commands nature. In Psalm 82, Yahweh stands in judgment over the corrupt spiritual rulers of the nations. These sons of God have failed to uphold justice, and He declares that they will die like men. They were given roles of governance but used them for oppression. Deuteronomy 32 states that the nations were divided according to the number of the sons of God, but Yahweh claimed Israel for Himself. While the other gods sought dominion, Yahweh chose a people for covenant relationship. Isaiah 45 affirms that Yahweh did not create the earth in vain but formed it to be inhabited. He is not a destroyer. He is a sustainer. His rule does not depend on tribute or violence but on truth and righteousness. The fifth segment is: Christ: The Revelation of True Kingship. The clearest expression of Yahweh's rule is found in Christ. His kingdom is not established by force but by sacrifice. He does not dominate. He restores. His miracles bring order where chaos reigned—healing the sick, calming storms, casting out demons. Where false gods take, Christ gives. Where they rule by fear, Christ leads in grace. Where they demand dominion, He offers restoration. He does not eliminate freedom. He redeems it. Christ is the perfect image of Yahweh's kingship, ruling in justice, humility, and power. In Conclusion. In every age, the temptation toward dominion remains strong. Political systems, spiritual ideologies, and even religious institutions often mimic the tactics of the gods of the nations—coercion, control, and fear. But Yahweh's way is different. He brings order without compulsion. He gives freedom even when it risks rebellion. He restores rather than destroys. His goal is not domination but partnership. He entrusts His imagers with real responsibility, and He holds corrupt powers accountable. His kingdom is built not on fear, but on faithfulness. Not on chaos, but on shalom. To follow Yahweh is to reject tyranny and embrace the order that comes from righteousness, mercy, and truth. For additional study, consider the following Discussion Questions. How does the creation account in Genesis contrast with violent creation myths from the ancient Near East? What does the biblical concept of rest reveal about Yahweh's relationship to creation? Why is Yahweh's decision to grant free will significant in understanding divine order? How does Christ's kingship reveal the difference between righteous rule and false dominion? In what ways do modern powers imitate the dominion of the gods of the nations? Join us next Theology Thursday to learn Monotheism Redefined: Returning to the Biblical View.

Most mortgage companies are making the same leadership mistake — and it's costing them millions.In this episode of Laugh, Lend & Eat, we flipped the script and let the guests, Gabe Gillen, Wes Costello, and our favorite mortgage comic, Justin Neal, ask the questions in a segment we call Ask Fobby Anything. What followed was a mix of hard truths, leadership lessons, recruiting insights, and a few unexpected personal stories along the way.We dive into a controversial topic many companies avoid: why top producers don't automatically make great branch managers. The skill set that makes someone elite at production is often the opposite of what's required to build and lead a team.But that's just the start.We also unpack the recruiting strategy that actually works — making the candidate the hero of the story, not the company or the recruiter. It's a simple shift that changes everything when you're trying to attract the right talent.Along the way, we explore a deeper leadership question: What's more dangerous in business — fear or ego? The answer might surprise you.And because this is Laugh, Lend & Eat, the conversation also wanders into favorite foods, podcasts, movies you can't stop watching, and what happens when you suddenly realize how much work your spouse actually does when you're running the household alone.This episode is part leadership conversation, part industry therapy session, and part unscripted fun.If you're a loan officer, branch manager, recruiter, or sales leader, there's something here that will make you think differently about growth, leadership, and the stories we tell ourselves in business.

In hour 2 Steak and Drew get in to a possible Hawks late-season run, UGA sneaking in to the NCAA tournament, and the beauty of Augusta National.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastWowzer, we had a lot of fun talking about the Buffy the Vampire TV Series today! Like all of our best discussion panels, we probably spawned a dozen more episodes from this one. The panel graciously ignored JR not being as up to speed on this franchise, having only seen a few episodes. But, the fans demanded this, and he delivered and was a good sport.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastWe bit off more than we could chew here, but the topic of generational ships in science fiction was too tempting to leave on the cutting room floor. So, I gathered some nerds and we had ourselves a little chat about the topic. After defining terms, of course! Then we talked about why you'd get onto one of these ships and the issues that would come along down the line. This was a fun interview, so check out this episode.

Mohos Kristóf, a Portfolio elemzőjének segítségével a MOL frissen közzétett 2025. évi negyedik negyedéves jelentése apropóján néztük meg, hogy mi okozott meglepetést az elemzők számára, milyen tényezők hathatnak a vállalat működésére idén, és ennek megfelelően hogyan alakulhat a cég részvényárfolyama. A műsor második felében azt vizsgáltuk meg részletesen, hogy mi áll az „Európa kulturális fővárosa” koncepció mögött. Gosztola Juditot, a Pénzcentrum szerkesztőjét saját látogatásának friss tapasztalatairól kérdeztük, azaz, hogy mit is jelent ez a gyakorlatban és mennyiben testesít meg hosszú távú városfejlesztési eszközt a titulus.

Getting away from the off the court things, Jayson Tatum's play on the court as a shape-shifter or a chameleon could lend greatly towards a potential return. How could Tatum fare well with Jaylen Brown as the top option? Then, Dan Greenberg from Barstool Sports joins the show and credits Joe Mazzulla's adaptability and a true understanding of his roster for how successful this season has been for the C's. And, Buster Olney ranked the top 10 players at each position and the Red Sox doesn't have that much representation.

Inside our theme of love this month, this week we are focusing on teaching our kids what love is. One of the things we love about God's love is hearing how much He loves us, will forgive us, and show us incredible mercy and grace, no matter what we do. But then the very tough thing about God's love is, as sinners, we struggle when He tells us to love others that we do not want to love. Teaching our kids that kind of unconditional love will be one of the hardest things we ever do—to encourage them to follow God in loving someone with His love and grace that we do not want to love and don't think we even can love.Much of Jesus' teaching was counter-cultural then, and it certainly is today. The religious leaders of His day wanted to separate people into two categories: acceptable and unacceptable. And those men would make that determination without God. In fact, Jesus' teaching against their standards ended up getting Him on their unacceptable list. Listen closely to this passage as I read. No matter how many times you may have heard it, try and listen with fresh ears about how God wants us to love …“But to you who are willing to listen, I say, love your enemies! Do good to those who hate you. Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who hurt you. If someone slaps you on one cheek, offer the other cheek also. If someone demands your coat, offer your shirt also. Give to anyone who asks; and when things are taken away from you, don't try to get them back. Do to others as you would like them to do to you.“If you love only those who love you, why should you get credit for that? Even sinners love those who love them! And if you do good only to those who do good to you, why should you get credit? Even sinners do that much! And if you lend money only to those who can repay you, why should you get credit? Even sinners will lend to other sinners for a full return.“Love your enemies! Do good to them. Lend to them without expecting to be repaid. Then your reward from heaven will be very great, and you will truly be acting as children of the Most High, for he is kind to those who are unthankful and wicked. You must be compassionate, just as your Father is compassionate. (Luke 6:27-36 NLT)Love your enemies? … That's a cute catchphrase until you actually feel like someone is your enemy and is working to make your life miserable. Loving that person feels impossible. Do good to those who hate you? Bless those who curse you? Really, Jesus? But what is so great about Jesus' teaching here is He told us why He wants us to do that.In short, Jesus said… “if people who have no God, who don't believe in God, who care nothing about Me, can be kind to those who are kind to them and love those who love them, then you don't need Me to do that, do you? But now, loving your enemies? Doing good to those who hate you? You are most definitely going to need Me to help you do that. Why? Because by yourself, you can't!”Now, to be clear, turning the other cheek does not have anything to do with abuse or letting someone run all over you. Remember—Jesus was the guy who got angry and cleared people out of the temple with a whip. But to love like God and to teach your kids to love like He does, that's going to take Jesus giving you the power and ability every time.Let's say it this way, if we're going to call ourselves His kids, we need to act like He's our Dad.Let's pray together: “Heavenly Father, this loving my enemies thing is so hard. Doing good to someone I deem as bad, blessing people I can't stand, that feels impossible. But you are the God that makes the impossible possible. Help me, Jesus, to love like You and to teach my kids these really hard things about how to love like You. Because me and my kids are Your children. As above, so below.”

The Blasters & Blades PodcastToday we got a bunch of nerds to bloviate about all of the cool fae things. We talked about where those pesky creatures sat within the high fantasy and urban fantasy genre space.

The one contingency killing real estate deals right now isn't interest rates—it's the home-sale contingency.In this episode of Laugh, Lend & Eat, Fobby Naghmi sits down with Nick Friedman, President of HomeLight, to explain why buyers are still losing bids even as mortgage rates come down—and how solutions like Buy Before You Sell are helping buyers win in today's housing market.Nick breaks down how HomeLight helps buyers unlock home equity, remove the home-sale contingency, and compete like cash buyers without waiting to sell first. The conversation covers buyer psychology, loan officer challenges, AI in mortgage approvals, and why certainty matters more than rates when sellers are choosing offers.If you're a home buyer, loan officer, or real estate agent looking for ways to win more deals, this episode explains what's really stalling transactions—and how HomeLight helps move them forward.

In this episode of Laugh, Lend & Eat, we break down what's really driving today's mortgage market—and why the headlines aren't telling the full story.We talk mortgage rate volatility, political pressure on the Federal Reserve, and the proposed 10% credit card interest rate cap that could unintentionally shut millions of consumers out of credit. We also explore how uncertainty impacts buyer psychology, why some markets are holding steady, and whether this moment actually presents opportunity for prepared buyers.The conversation shifts into loan officer reality—when producers really make moves, why frustration beats timing, and what top performers think about transitions differently. We wrap with a candid leadership discussion on accountability, improvement, and why “perfect” is the wrong target in mortgages.If you're a loan officer, leader, or mortgage professional trying to make sense of the noise and protect your pipeline, this episode delivers real-world perspective without the hype.

In this episode, we examine the illogic behind TSA security rules and how performative regulation often substitutes for real safety, before turning to the economics of ticket scalping and why attempts to suppress secondary markets routinely backfire. We discuss proposals to cap credit card interest rates, including Donald Trump's suggested limit, and explore how price controls distort lending, restrict access to credit, and harm the very consumers they are meant to protect. The conversation connects these issues to broader misunderstandings about markets, incentives, and regulation, highlighting how political solutions driven by optics rather than economics tend to produce higher costs, reduced choice, and unintended consequences across everyday life. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:26 The Illogic of TSA Rules and Security Theater 03:19 What TSA Bans (and Allows) Makes No Sense 05:47 Why TSA Rules Persist Long After the Threat Is Gone 07:02 Missed Episode Fallout and “Are You Still Alive?” 09:02 Trouble Inside the Trump Administration 12:36 Foolishness of the Week: NFL Ticket Resale Crackdown 13:15 Are Season Tickets Really “Yours”? 15:29 Why Ticket Scalping Actually Adds Value 17:21 Risk, Resale, and the Free Market for Tickets 19:05 What Secondary Markets Reveal About True Prices 21:31 Trump's Proposal to Cap Credit Card Interest Rates 22:33 Does the President Even Have the Authority? 25:28 What a 10% Cap Would Do to the Credit Card Market 28:13 Credit Cards as Unsecured Loans and Risk Sharing 29:30 Why Banks Can't Lend at 10% to Everyone 31:59 Trump, Elizabeth Warren, and Left-Wing Economic Policy 33:32 Why People Feel Economic Pain Despite “Good” Data 34:45 COVID Policy, Inflation, and the Middle-Class Squeeze 37:22 Who Really Pays for Artificially Cheap Credit 38:46 Life Without Credit Cards and Financial Shock Absorbers 39:53 Saving, Self-Insurance, and Economic Reality 41:58 Government Intervention and Cascading Market Failures 42:48 Why a Credit Card Cap Would Make Things Worse 45:02 Final Thoughts and Closing Reflections Learn more about your ad choices.

It seems like a simple question, but aging can be complicated, especially when a loved one shows signs of dementia and/or physical decline. Can you provide the right support for your family member or friend, ensure their safety, and avoid costly or even dangerous missteps in their care? Can you manage the expectations and stress on you and others who likely do not have the time or expertise to provide suitable help?   Friend of the firm, Susan Wood, sits down with Jeffrey Bellomo to share her experience with the Life Care Planning Team at Bellomo & Associates. Together, they created and implemented a life care plan for Susan's neighbor and friend, whose dementia had progressed to the point that she could no longer safely remain in her home.   We learn how the people at Bellomo & Associates work in concert to find safe care options, preserve dignity, review facility contracts and financial agreements, advocate for proper medical care, and address the emotional strain that can come from moving out of your familiar, and often longtime, home.   Special shoutout to two members of our Life Care Planning Team, Meg Motter, LCSW, CDP, and Danielle Rhodes, MSW, LSW, CDP, who figure prominently in Susan's story.     WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW (00:00) Podcast introduction: Susan Wood  (02:28) Susan's professional background and the referral to Bellomo & Associates  (04:09) Adding life care planning services to Bellomo & Associates  (06:55) Providing an assessment, creating a plan, and making it work  (08:00) Why life planning at an elder law firm makes sense  (10:09) Moving into an unfamiliar space is fraught with emotion  (12:26) From meds to milkshakes   (14:20) Improving work life for nurses and the quality of patient care  (17:56) Retention and turnover in nursing  (20:00) Stress in health care workers   (22:28) Lend a helping hand to aging adults     ABOUT BELLOMO & ASSOCIATES Jeffrey R.

In this charged Friday edition of What's On Your Mind, the conversation centers on National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day—a day that should be for celebration but finds itself overshadowed by recent events in Minneapolis. The hosts dive into the escalating tensions between ICE operations and activist groups, questioning the role of political rhetoric in fueling dangerous street confrontations. From the "brainwashing" of professional protesters to the silent majority's support for the thin blue line, no topic is off-limits. The episode balances the heavy news with heartwarming stories of police professionalism and a special "Feel Good Friday" segment highlighting local efforts to "stick it to cancer." Standout Moments & Timestamps [00:01:15] Heroes vs. Anarchy The show opens with a somber reflection on National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day. The hosts discuss the "heartbreaking" reality of ICE officers facing "reckless, law-breaking agitators" while simply trying to fulfill their sworn duties. [00:07:30] The "Thunderdome" of Lawlessness A caller from West Fargo joins the fray, comparing the current political climate to the movie Thunderdome. The discussion turns to the "playbook of chaos" and whether the average American truly wants the lawlessness being seen on the news. [00:15:45] The "Woke" Moment of Silence A listener from Minot calls in to express frustration over the Minnesota Timberwolves' halftime tribute. The hosts debate the "virtue signaling" of sports organizations and the hypocrisy of honoring protesters while ignoring injured federal officers. [00:23:10] Stalkers or "Legal Observers"? The hosts break down the recent shooting incident in Minneapolis, challenging the narrative that the deceased was merely a "legal observer." They examine reports of activists literally "stalking" ICE vehicles and the "frenzy" created by social media clicks. [00:34:20] A Trucker's Tale of Common Sense A long-time trucker named Sid calls in with a refreshing story about a late-night traffic stop in West Fargo. It's a perfect example of the "99.9% of interactions" that involve professionalism, mutual respect, and a "break" for the working man. [00:39:15] Stick It to Cancer Gina Pinovich from Lend a Hand Up joins the show for a "Feel Good Friday" update. Learn how a local high school hockey tradition has grown into a massive community fundraiser to support families battling health crises across 11 counties.

Meeting the mental and behavioral health needs of rural communities, where people are dispersed and remarkably self-reliant, can be a challenge for a variety of different reasons. In Northeast Oregon, Community Counseling Solutions serves an area of more than 60,000 square miles, in which just 100,000 people reside—the sheer distance can stretch resources thin. Kimberly Lindsay is their director and she cofounded the David Romprey Oregon Warm Line in Oregon, which unlike a hotline for an immediate crisis, warm lines provide early mental health intervention with a confidential free phone service.

Welcome to the new year! Obviously we start with some reflections on 2025 and we also give a shout-out to Haley Stevens and her article about Wikipedia in the Skeptic UK.

Along with the usual Christmas show shenanigans, I also give you the top 5 movies of the year, and Time magazine has chosen the 2025 person of the year, and it's not me. There's a new piece of Star Wars memorabilia that sold for a record 3.875 million, and a woman gives birth in a driverless car. How many days should a guest stay in your house during the holidays before the place starts to smell, and we deal with Christmas songs that are controversial. An only fans lady may go to jail for having sex with most anyone in her bang bus, plus TSA announces you will be charged a fine if you don't have the real ID. There is a new number one name for boys in America, and after this next story, you'll think twice about ordering food delivered to your home. And we wrap up the year with a story you won't believe, and it has to do with a woman's ear. It's time for me to tickle your mistletoe!

Today, in celebration of the American holiday "Thanksgiving Day," I want to share with you a recording of short story written by Louisa May Alcott, called "An Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving." The audio file has no commentary—it's merely an unabridged reading of the story—and is suitable for you to share with your children as a worthwhile story to enjoy this time of year. But this story is filled with financial lessons for those with ears to hear. As you listen to a life of long ago (circa 1830), I'd encourage you to reflect on the life that you and I now live in comparison. For me, this reflection fills me with Thanksgiving, which is the starting point of living a rich life now. You are rich. I am rich. Let's realize it and act appropriately. Joshua If you prefer to read the story to your children yourself, here is the text I read: https://digital.library.upenn.edu/women/alcott/thanksgiving/thanksgiving.html  Here are a few poem and prayers of Thanksgiving you may enjoy as well: O Lord, that lends me life, Lend me a heart replete with thankfulness! ~~William Shakespeare 1564-1616 May all who share these gifts today Be blessed by Thee, we humbly pray. What God gives and what we take 'Tis a gift for Christ his sake;

The console wars are back on. This week, Nilay Patel sits down with Jake Kastrenakes, Sean Hollister, and special guest Joanna Stern, senior columnist at The Wall Street Journal, to talk about Valve's return to the living room gaming race with the Steam Machine, Steam Controller, and Steam Frame VR headset. Then, Joanna discusses her time putting the Neo robot to the test and seeing whether it's capable of loading a dishwasher. Finally, it's time for the Lightning Round, where the crew is talking the YouTube/Disney spat, Apple's new mini apps, and letting Waymo speed down the highway.
