Example of a direct question: "Where's the bathroom?" Indirect questions are a little more formal and polite. We use them when talking to a person we don't know very well, or in professional situations, and their form is a little different. Example of an indirect question: "Could you tell me where the bathroom is?"

What if some of the most important biblical passages for your marriage don't explicitly talk about husbands and wives? In this episode, Gunner Gundersen and Aaron Sironi explore how the book of Philippians offers a powerful framework for navigating conflict and cultivating unity in marriage. They uncover how the gospel itself shapes the way husbands and wives relate to one another. Aaron shares how lasting change in marriage doesn't come primarily through techniques but through adopting the mind of Christ: a posture of humility, sacrificial love, and deep attentiveness to one another's burdens. They'll cover why conflict in marriage is inevitable and how it can become redemptive, what it looks like to "re-do" conflict in a gospel-shaped way, and how Philippians 2 reframes how we approach our spouse's struggles. Whether you're married, counseling others, or simply seeking to grow in Christlike relationships, this conversation offers a hopeful and deeply practical vision for change.

Today's Post - https://bahnsen.co/4w45BZc David Bahnsen discusses why market drawdowns are normal and distinct from bubbles, using 2026 S&P 500 moves (down ~9% peak-to-trough, then a sharp rebound to up ~5% YTD) to argue markets are behaving typically despite war-driven narratives. He distinguishes frequent corrections from rarer bubble bursts and critiques the incoherent swing from “apocalypse” to “mania” framing. Bahnsen outlines three investor responses—market timing (impractical), buy-and-hold (endure), and embracing volatility through dividend growth and reinvestment—emphasizing asset allocation built for investor temperament and cash-flow needs. He applies historical bubble psychology (Kindleberger's stages) to AI, predicting mixed outcomes: some hyperscalers and AI-related firms will disappoint or fail, while valuable companies may survive valuation resets. Key takeaways include inevitability of future corrections, prudence via diversification and limited AI exposure, and potential selective opportunities after any AI-driven downturn. 00:00 Welcome and Agenda 02:05 Year-to-Date Market Whiplash 04:45 Corrections Are Normal 08:11 Three Ways to Respond 12:20 Embrace Volatility With Dividends 14:10 Manias vs Bubbles 16:12 AI Bubble Risk and Diversification 23:27 Kindleberger Bubble Stages 26:42 Seven Investor Takeaways 29:05 Closing Philosophy and Farewell Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

Today, we are breaking down PriceSmart, the membership warehouse club operating across Central America, the Caribbean, and South America. I came away from this episode with a new appreciation for how a single retail concept and a single family have shaped the way much of the world shops. When you learn that Sol Price invented the modern club store, influenced Sam Walton, the founders of Home Depot, and the founders of Target, that his Price Club merged with Costco in 1993, and that his grandson now runs a separate company replicating the model across 12 emerging market countries, you start to see PriceSmart not as a mid cap retailer but as the third generation continuation of one of the most important ideas in modern American retail. I am joined by Markus Hansen, portfolio manager at Vontobel Asset Management. We start with Sol Price's founding of Fed Mart in the 1950s and the lineage that runs through Price Club, the Costco merger, and the 1993 spinoff that became today's company. We cover how 40% of operating earnings are locked in upfront each year through membership payments, why the company chooses to own its real estate and run its own logistics, and what happened to its stores when hurricanes hit Jamaica last season.

In this extended Q&A special, Krishna Das offers powerful insights on navigating the turmoil of the human experience through devotional practice.This week on Pilgrim Heart, Krishna Das offers down-to-earth advice on:The name of God as an echo of our own beingTuning ourselves into the mantra Replacing greed and anxiety with compassion and kindnessThe delusion of self and otherDepression and falling into the trap of self-obsessionBuilding up the strength to let go through daily practice Coming back home to ourselves, to our breathThe lingering connection we have to those we have lostLooking for love within ourselves instead of outside ourselves"Depression expresses itself in many different ways. In general, through regular practice, we obsess about ourselves less and less. Over time, how we feel retreats into the background. It's no longer the most important thing in your life. You wake up ‘How am I now? How am I now?'. All day long, all life long, we are always judging how we feel. As time goes on, you don't give a shit about your state of mind anymore. You're here now, which is where we are.” –Krishna DasAbout Krishna Das:Layering traditional Hindu kirtan with instantly accessible melodies and modern instrumentation, Grammy nominee Krishna Das has been called yoga's “rock star.” With a remarkably soulful voice that touches the deepest chord in even the most casual listener, Krishna Das – known to friends, family, and fans as simply KD – has taken the call-and-response chanting out of yoga centers and into concert halls, becoming a worldwide icon and the best-selling chant artist of all time. His album ‘Live Ananda' (released January 2012) was nominated for a Grammy in the Best New Age album category.KD spent the late '60s traveling across the country as a student of Ram Dass, and in August 1970, he finally made the journey to India, which led him to Ram Dass' own beloved guru, Neem Karoli Baba, known to most as Maharaj-ji. Krishna Das now travels the world sharing his kirtan practice and wonderful stories of his life, of Maharaji-ji, of his life on the Path and discusses bringing chanting into our lives through retreats and workshops. To date, KD has released 15 well-received albums, most recently Trust in the Heart released in October 2017.MORE INFORMATION and OFFERINGS VISIT: https://krishnadas.com/ KRISHNA DAS ON SOCIAL: FACEBOOK: facebook.com/KrishnaDasMusic INSTAGRAM: instagram.com/krishnadasmusic YOUTUBE: / krishnadasmusic X: @krishnadas #KrishnaDasSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In this special live panel session recorded at the 7th Annual HVAC/R Training Symposium, the three founders of Kalos Services — Bryan Orr, his father Robert (Bob) Orr, and uncle Keith Huntington — sit down together to celebrate the company's 20th anniversary and answer questions from the audience and online attendees. Hosted by Bert, the conversation blends humor, hard-earned wisdom, and surprising candor about what it actually takes to build and sustain a trades business over two decades. From humble beginnings with $100,000 in startup capital to managing multi-million-dollar commercial contracts today, the founders pull back the curtain on the messy, unpredictable, and deeply human reality of entrepreneurship in the skilled trades. A recurring theme throughout the panel is that starting a business requires far more than technical skill — it demands grit, personal support, and an almost stubborn refusal to outspend your income. Bryan shares a raw, memorable story about living in a double-wide trailer with seven kids while Kalos was already nine years old, choosing to improvise a drainage workaround rather than take on debt he couldn't afford. The founders agree that the number-one ingredient for small business survival is grit — the ability to wake up the next morning after a terrible day and take the next step anyway. Robert adds a philosophical note that extreme negative emotions in business are almost never accurate; they pass, and tomorrow tends to look better than the night before suggested it would. One of the most discussed topics in the panel is how to motivate technicians to care about quality — not just revenue targets. Bryan makes a pointed distinction: if you build a compensation system optimized purely for money, you attract people who are only motivated by money. Instead, he advocates building a culture where belonging is tied to quality of work. Practical tools like daily photo-posting of installs in Google Chat, public shout-outs for great work, and peer commentary create an environment where craftspeople hold each other to a standard — not because they're forced to, but because it's who they are. Keith echoes this, emphasizing that most technician frustration stems not from laziness but from unclear systems and expectations set by leadership. When people don't know what's expected, they disengage — and that's a leadership problem, not a people problem. The panel also dives into the nuances of running a family business, with all three founders offering surprisingly candid takes. Keith notes that the key to 20 relatively friction-free years has been that all three founders are "120 degrees different" from each other — their strengths don't overlap, so they rarely fight over territory. Bryan adds that healthy family businesses require the ability to have real conflict for the sake of mission, not just harmony. He also speaks to the importance of organizational structure when family members are involved: his own son Gavin, at 21 years old, works at Kalos but reports through multiple layers of management precisely so Bryan doesn't micromanage him. The session closes with reflections on the riskiest moments in the company's history — and Bryan's honest admission that four weeks prior to the symposium ranked among the most stressful, as large promised contracts delayed in paperwork can shake even an established business to its core. Topics Covered Expanding HVAC services into electrical and plumbing — what technicians can realistically do and when to partner with specialists The real prerequisites for going out on your own: craft knowledge, personal support system, and financial discipline Why grit — not capital or credentials — is the single most important ingredient for small business survival How to attract technicians who genuinely care about quality, not just technicians who chase commissions Using internal tools like Google Chat to reinforce a culture of craftsmanship and peer accountability The danger of building systems that look great on paper but don't survive contact with real-world field conditions Advice on contractor mentoring programs — how to absorb outside coaching without losing your own identity and standards Lessons from running a family business: complementary roles, honest conflict, and the importance of organizational separation How Kalos Services grew from $100,000 in startup capital to a multi-trade general contractor over 20 years The role of visionary vs. operator personalities in a founding team, and why both are essential The founders' biggest career mistakes — including owning full responsibility for a six-figure grocery store power outage Why private equity growth models don't translate to owner-operated trades businesses Hiring to fill your weaknesses: from permitting to office management, delegating what you hate frees you to lead Recommended training resources: HVAC School, Ty Craig / Skill Cat, Ruth King, ESCO, and Dirk Nauman Why the riskiest stage of business is never behind you — it scales with the size of your contracts Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

Today’s Bible Verse: “We will not hide them from their descendants; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done.” — Psalm 78:4 (NIV) Psalm 78:4 emphasizes the responsibility and privilege of sharing God’s faithfulness with the next generation. Faith was never meant to be kept private—it’s meant to be told, remembered, and passed on. The stories of what God has done become anchors for those who come after us.

He highlights three key coaching lessons: 1) Holding high standards paired with systematic support, which led to a high-performance culture and low injury rates among his athletes. 2) Clarity over activity, which reduces performance risks and ensures alignment and focus. 3) Rewarding behaviors and effort over outcomes, fostering a culture of self-improvement and control. Dixon advocates for a mindset shift from managing to coaching, aiming to enhance leadership effectiveness.

My guest today is Paul Tudor Jones. Paul is the founder of Tudor Investment Corporation and one of the greatest macro traders of all time, known for calling and profiting from the 1987 crash and compounding capital at extraordinary rates over more than four decades. Paul is also one of the most entertaining and interesting people I have ever met. He is full of stories and hard-earned lessons from a lifetime in markets that feels like several lifetimes compressed into one. In this conversation, he shares how he thinks about trading as a constant battle of risk management and patience, why he still wakes up in the middle of the night to watch global markets, and how he identifies the rare moments where he can take a truly big swing. We discuss whether we are in a bubble, why he sees AI as one of the greatest risks in history, and why he believes Bitcoin is the best inflation hedge. We also spend time on the difference between trading and investing, the importance of passion and discipline, and the ideas that have shaped his life both inside and outside of markets. Please enjoy this conversation with Paul Tudor Jones. This conversation was recorded in mid-February 20, 26 weeks before the geopolitical conflicts now shaping the global economy.

The team behind Lessons from the Screenplay breaks down the narrative of The Dark Knight Rises to extract storytelling lessons and explore the kinds of tools writers can use to address various problems in their stories. In particular, we look at the design of Bane's character, the complicated nature of Bane's plan, and the struggle of balancing so many supporting characters.NOTE: We recorded this with the intention it just be for our YouTube channel, but we ended up not referring to the visuals much in the conversation. Hopefully everything makes sense in a strictly audio form.

In this episode, Michael Easley talks with Liz and Jack Hagler, the creative team behind the Patrick Wigglesworth Bible Adventure Series. Together, they share how decades of ministry, homeschooling, and creative work led to a bold vision: helping kids experience the Bible through graphic-novel storytelling that is both theologically grounded and highly engaging. Liz brings her background in illustration and design, while Jack draws from his pastoral and seminary training to shape the biblical framework behind each story.

Rob Has a Podcast | Survivor / Big Brother / Amazing Race - RHAP
Survivor 50 Episode 9 Toronto Live Show Survivor 50 heats up as Rob Cesternino takes the stage in Toronto for a live Know-It-Alls episode, joined by Survivor 42 winner Maryanne Oketch and a packed panel of former players and superfans (Gabby Pascuzzi, Omer Zaheer, Frannie Marin, Kevin Jacobs, Sophi Balerdi, Jeremiah Ing, Kristina Mills, Dwight Moore, Kaleb Gebrewold, Brandon Donlon). The crowd is still reeling from a heartbreaking blindside, and this episode spares no feelings, digging into controversial twists, passionate fan reactions, and the social chessboard of all-star gameplay. Right out of the gate, Rob and Maryanne grapple with the fallout of the Jimmy Fallon twist, debating if it sped up Christian's dramatic exit or if his torch was fated to snuff regardless. The pair reflect on Christian's journey from quirky favorite to top-tier Survivor character, while the panel erupts with opinions on whether twists like these are breaking the game or just making it more unpredictable. The episode also spotlights a joyful, unprecedented moment: Jeff Probst finally competing in a challenge himself, giving both survivors and fans a rare chance to see the host humbled in the arena. Other highlights include a deep dive into Cirie's masterful social play as she weaves alliances and keeps her options open while letting bigger threats make noise. The live crowd chimes in on the complexities of returning player dynamics, contagious main character energy, and why playing a public idol in the new era is as risky as ever. Panelists get candid about hiding idols, spilling secrets from their own seasons, and paying tribute (and blame) to celebrity twists gone wild. – Maryanne Oketch and Rob Cesternino break down the impact of the Jimmy Fallon twist on Christian's exit – Panelists trade theories about Cirie's under-the-radar alliances and her grip on the game’s power structure – Jeff Probst jumps into the immunity challenge, drawing big laughs and humility – Contestants share strategies for idol hiding—and why flashy play can backfire – Audience and panel react fiercely to celebrity and corporate twists, debating their place in Survivor 50 With alliances shifting and big names falling, the episode leaves listeners wondering: Will Cirie's subtle social game make her unstoppable, or is a big target painted on her back? And which twist (or player) will flip the game next? Don't miss this live dive into the rollercoaster of Survivor 50.

I sat down with Monica Cornitcher, CEO and co-founder of Medase Cocktails, a premium non-alcoholic beverage brand redefining what it means to drink without alcohol. What started as a simple desire for a real cocktail experience without the after-effects turned into a six-figure investment and a fast-growing brand that's now catching the attention of major retailers.Monica shares how she and her co-founder Inga Dyer went from Zoom conversations during the pandemic to building a fully developed beverage company. Instead of rushing the process, they leaned into research, worked with a food scientist, and built a five-year strategy before launching. Their focus was clear: create authentic, full-flavor cocktails that people actually recognize and crave.In this episode, Monica opens up about the real cost of building a physical product, navigating grief after losing her co-founder, and the strategy behind growing through direct-to-consumer before entering retail. This is a powerful conversation about resilience, intentional growth, and building a brand rooted in purpose and community.Main TakeawaysWhy taking time to validate your idea and build a strategy can save you costly mistakesHow to approach launching a physical product without cutting corners on qualityThe importance of direct-to-consumer growth before entering retailHow resilience, grief, and purpose shaped the future of Medase CocktailsHighlights Include00:00 – Introduction to Medase Cocktails03:00 – Monica's first business and corporate background06:00 – The idea sparked during COVID and building with intention08:00 – Why they worked with a food scientist instead of DIY10:00 – Creating a 5-year business strategy before launch13:00 – Identifying their target consumer and product positioning21:00 – Funding the business with $100K+ of personal investment26:00 – Attending Expo West and attracting investors29:00 – Navigating grief after losing her co-founder30:00 – Growth on Amazon and direct-to-consumer success33:00 – Why retail is expensive and how to prepare for it45:00 – Lessons from production mistakes and product quality control47:00 – Competing in a growing non-alcoholic beverage market50:00 – Lightning round insights and toolsLinks Mentioned in This EpisodeSave the Date: Start the Podcast That Builds Your Exit Plan (Friday, May 15)Watch & ListenWatch this episode on YouTube and listen on all podcast platforms:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/side-hustle-pro/id1126021323Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/13qDj08lBR4ymzGhXIKy8tYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/sidehustleproAnnouncementsIf you're ready to build a podcast that becomes your exit plan from your 9-to-5, sign up for my next live class: Start the Podcast That Builds Your Exit PlanSave your seat here.

Survivor 50 Episode 9 Toronto Live Show Survivor 50 heats up as Rob Cesternino takes the stage in Toronto for a live Know-It-Alls episode, joined by Survivor 42 winner Maryanne Oketch and a packed panel of former players and superfans (Gabby Pascuzzi, Omer Zaheer, Frannie Marin, Kevin Jacobs, Sophi Balerdi, Jeremiah Ing, Kristina Mills, Dwight Moore, Kaleb Gebrewold, Brandon Donlon). The crowd is still reeling from a heartbreaking blindside, and this episode spares no feelings, digging into controversial twists, passionate fan reactions, and the social chessboard of all-star gameplay. Right out of the gate, Rob and Maryanne grapple with the fallout of the Jimmy Fallon twist, debating if it sped up Christian's dramatic exit or if his torch was fated to snuff regardless. The pair reflect on Christian's journey from quirky favorite to top-tier Survivor character, while the panel erupts with opinions on whether twists like these are breaking the game or just making it more unpredictable. The episode also spotlights a joyful, unprecedented moment: Jeff Probst finally competing in a challenge himself, giving both survivors and fans a rare chance to see the host humbled in the arena. Other highlights include a deep dive into Cirie's masterful social play as she weaves alliances and keeps her options open while letting bigger threats make noise. The live crowd chimes in on the complexities of returning player dynamics, contagious main character energy, and why playing a public idol in the new era is as risky as ever. Panelists get candid about hiding idols, spilling secrets from their own seasons, and paying tribute (and blame) to celebrity twists gone wild. – Maryanne Oketch and Rob Cesternino break down the impact of the Jimmy Fallon twist on Christian's exit – Panelists trade theories about Cirie's under-the-radar alliances and her grip on the game’s power structure – Jeff Probst jumps into the immunity challenge, drawing big laughs and humility – Contestants share strategies for idol hiding—and why flashy play can backfire – Audience and panel react fiercely to celebrity and corporate twists, debating their place in Survivor 50 With alliances shifting and big names falling, the episode leaves listeners wondering: Will Cirie's subtle social game make her unstoppable, or is a big target painted on her back? And which twist (or player) will flip the game next? Don't miss this live dive into the rollercoaster of Survivor 50.

Today, we are breaking down Altius Minerals, a Canadian royalty company that stands apart from the precious metals and oil and gas names that usually define the category. 17 people in Newfoundland control royalties over Canadian potash mines that supply 90 percent of the potash used in the US, along with 2.9 gigawatts of operating renewable power. I am joined by Luke Bridgeman, portfolio manager at Hosking Partners based in London. We start with Brian Dalton founding the business in a university dorm 29 years ago and how the company built its edge through a project generation model that turned $13 million of spend into $200 million of equity proceeds while keeping the royalties. We cover why Altius focuses on base metals rather than precious metals, how it extended the royalty structure into renewables where there is no land to claim, how countercyclical capital deployment has shaped nearly every important decision in the company's history, and what it means to run a $2 billion business with only 17 employees. Please enjoy this breakdown of Altius Minerals.

In this episode, we sit down with Greene County Tech Head Baseball Coach Bruce Hunt, who brings more than four decades of coaching experience to the conversation. A state champion in 2007, Coach Hunt reflects on what it takes to build a consistent and competitive program over time. We talk about the mental side of baseball and why the ability to move on from one at bat to the next is essential for success. Coach Hunt shares how he teaches players to let go of mistakes, stay focused, and keep their attention on what is in front of them. The conversation also explores how athletics shapes character, the lessons different sports teach, and why servant leadership is a foundation for becoming a good man. We also discuss what it means for Greene County Tech to host the state tournament and the opportunity that brings for the program and community. This episode offers insight into leadership, discipline, and the mindset needed to grow both on and off the field.
“When I crossed the line and saw 2:24, I was actually in shock that I'd still managed a PR given how bad I felt. David [Roche] looked at my GPS file and said being able to bring yourself back from those depths is a sign of a real marathoner.”My guest for today's episode is Amanda Vestri. We just had the Brooks pro marathoner on a few weeks ago and talked about how she is one of the most exciting young American marathoners in the sport right now. Now, in just her second marathon, she finished 15th overall at the 2026 Boston Marathon in 2:24:49. She PR'd by nearly a minute from her debut in New York last November. She is coached by David and Megan Roche and by her own admission is only just getting started.In this conversation, Amanda is refreshingly honest about a race that was both a personal best and a disappointment. She says the downhill-specific preparation was lacking and explains exactly what she plans to do differently in her next shot. We talk about what it was like to run alongside Jess McClain and Susanna Sullivan in the early miles and the deeply emotional moment of watching Jess close on the big screen at mile 23 while Amanda herself was hurting badly. David Roche wrote after the race that Amanda is made of different stuff and that when it happens, every young runner is going to think about running like her. This conversation goes a long way toward explaining why he believes that.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavezGuest: Amanda Vestri | @a_vestriProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSXENDURANCE: When you finish a hard workout, the work isn't actually done.

What happens when you stop waiting to be chosen and start making your own opportunities? This week on Superwomen, I'm joined by Danielle Robay, journalist, founder and host of the podcast Question Everything to uncover how curiosity became the foundation of her career, and what had to change for to fully step into it. Dubbed the Queen of Questions, Danielle is a true believer in the power of asking – both on the mic and in real life. She shares how curiosity can open doors, how asking for more leads to better outcomes, and why it's important to authentically build relationships, not just network.

Take notes because this one will make you stop talking and start asking.

Rob Has a Podcast | Survivor / Big Brother / Amazing Race - RHAP
Survivor 50 Mid-Season Mailbag Survivor is deep into its milestone 50th season, and Rob Cesternino teams up with Brandon Donlon for a special Midseason Mailbag episode that brings fans right into the action. The hosts get candid about the emotional highs and game-shaking twists following the double Tribal Council, including who might have survived if the vote order was different and how the season's big risks are paying off—or missing the mark. With a tidal wave of mailbag questions on everything from alliance dynamics to possibly controversial twists, Rob and Brandon break down how the double duos twist changed the game's course and why certain Survivor legends like Coach and Chrissy faced tough exits. The discussion digs into the difference between new era and old-school players, touching on trust, reputation, and what might have happened if familiar faces like Jesse, Carolyn, or Earl returned. The pair also question how winners fit into the fabric of season 50, and whether Rizo's social game can earn him legendary status beside Cirie. Game strategy is at the forefront as they weigh Jonathan's mentorship from Boston Rob, the ongoing Rizo vs. Cirie question, and the evolving jury dynamics shaped by twists like the Billie Eilish boomerang idol and the polarizing blood moon. Plus, the duo imagines future seasons: should all-returnee casts have 24 players, or is Survivor ready for another evolution in format? – Reactions to the double duos twist and who would have survived different vote scenarios – The impact of tribe composition and returning winners on season 50's dynamics – Debate over the luckiest player since the blood moon twist – How Rick Devens stirs chaos at Tribal Council – If Rizo can reach “legend” status by helping—or betraying—Cirie With alliances shifting and twists still turning, the episode leaves burning questions on the table: can Rizo find his place among Survivor's greats, and will the current cast's big swings become blueprints for future seasons? Tune in to see how the fans' voices—and the game's biggest moves—are shaping the fate of Survivor 50.
