Travis Chappell and producer Eric break down YouTuber Markiplier's self-financed horror film Iron Lung, which grossed over $20M (7x its $3M budget) and topped box office charts—without Hollywood backing. Their casual chat celebrates indie success while roasting studio "slop," low actor pay, and why creators with audiences have a massive edge. On this episode we talk about: Iron Lung's unicorn success: $3M self-funded, zero marketing budget, #1 at box office vs. big studio flops Hollywood's shady side: Missing box office charts, low actor pay ($2-5K/episode after cuts), no royalties Creator advantages: Built-in audiences = free marketing; YouTubers like Radio Silence (A24 hits) proving the model Why constraints breed better art: Low stakes, passion projects outperform bloated $100M+ budgets Lessons for creators: Make what excites you; democratized access means anyone can bypass gatekeepers Top 3 Takeaways Existing audiences are the ultimate marketing hack—Markiplier's casual promo beat Hollywood's $50M+ spends. Low-budget passion projects often outperform high-stakes slop because creators prioritize art over profit. Hollywood's math sucks for most: After agents/taxes, "star" roles pay peanuts—build your own leverage first. Notable Quotes "Iron Lung... has already done over $20 million in the box office and has been the number one movie through the weekend." "They just write somebody else... [so] rather than look at it as giving me $2200 an episode, how much money are they putting into marketing the show?" "Stop making [content] like a chore... what would I want to record that would be like a shining light in my calendar?"

Romans 10:18-21 — How could it be that the foolish and ignorant Gentiles would predominately receive the gospel, whereas God's chosen people, the Jews, would predominately reject the gospel? Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones has been tracing the apostle Paul's argument through Romans, seeking to answer this query following the inspired text of Scripture itself. In this sermon on Romans 10:18–21 titled “Learning the Lessons,” he transitions from exposition to application of the many exegetical principles he has established in earlier messages. Dr. Lloyd-Jones notes the important role in the personal application of Scripture, which many of the Jews in Paul's day missed. Furthermore, he traces the history of the church as illustrative of “dead orthodoxy” that abandons the Lord Jesus Christ and persecutes His church. The answer to such alarming tendency of so-called “Christians” persecuting the church is a posture of self-examination and returning to the ultimate authority – the word of God. Dr. Lloyd-Jones asks the church to remain open to the scrutiny of Scripture, remaining humble before it and others, while rightly handling the whole of the Bible. Listen to this vital message from Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones as he cautions the church to take serious the tragedy of the Jews, not merely as a historical interest, but more importantly as a means of God's grace in the life of His people.

What happens when we stop drifting financially and start stewarding intentionally?When God's purposes shape our financial decisions, money takes its rightful place—not as a source of identity or security, but as a tool that brings clarity, freedom, and faithful living. That conviction is at the heart of our conversation today with Brian Holtz, CEO of Compass Financial Ministry, about an upcoming gathering designed to help believers live it out in practical ways.Why Purpose Matters When It Comes to MoneyBrian explains that the idea for the conference begins with a familiar phrase: money is just a tool. While that's true, tools are always created with intention. A hammer isn't good or bad—but it's designed for a specific purpose. When we don't understand what money is for, we risk using it indiscriminately, assuming every financial decision is wise simply because it seems practical.Scripture calls us to something better: stewardship shaped by God's design. When we understand His purposes for money, our decisions become clearer—and our faithfulness more intentional.Introducing Money on PurposeThat's the vision behind Money on Purpose, Compass Financial Ministry's global conference happening February 26–28, 2026, in Orlando.Over three days, attendees will experience:Christ-centered worshipTeaching rooted in ScriptureFellowship with believers seeking to steward God's resources faithfullyEach keynote explores a specific purpose of money through a biblical story or character from both the Old and New Testaments, followed by workshops focused on real-life application.One of Compass's strengths has always been its ability to make biblical stewardship accessible, regardless of where someone is on their financial journey. This conference reflects that same heart.Whether you're a young adult seeking guidance, a parent shaping financial values at home, or a church leader looking to integrate stewardship into discipleship, Money on Purpose is designed to meet you where you are.Workshop topics range from biblically grounded investing to navigating economic uncertainty—all anchored in God's Word.What often surprises attendees most, Brian notes, is how comprehensively Scripture speaks to modern financial questions. When people realize their real concerns are addressed in God's Word, something shifts.Just as powerful is the community. Being surrounded by like-minded believers moves the experience beyond information toward transformation. People leave not only knowing what to do, but encouraged, supported, and eager to see God work through their obedience.What Participants Walk Away WithCompass's mission is simple but profound: to help people grow closer to Jesus, live free to serve Him, and help fund the Great Commission.Those who attend Money on Purpose leave with:A clearer understanding of God's financial principlesA practical plan to live them outA community of believers committed to walking togetherThat's what purposeful stewardship is ultimately about.When we handle money on purpose—God's purpose—we discover greater freedom, direction, and joy in stewarding what belongs to Him.To learn more or register for the Money on Purpose conference, visit CompassFinancialMinistry.org, where you'll find full details on sessions, workshops, and the event schedule.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My husband and I are debt-free and saving for retirement through a mix of Roth and traditional accounts. I'm a state employee with deferred compensation options. A friend is urging us to buy a whole life insurance policy as an investment. Is that a wise choice, or could we be getting bad advice?I'm calling on behalf of a friend in Colorado who needs cash flow and has equity in her home. She's single and a senior, and I thought a reverse mortgage might help—but she says it's not an option. Are reverse mortgage rules different by state or age, and who could help her explore this?I'm retired military and run a side business that earns over $100,000 a year. I live on about half, and I'm doing well. I'm considering paying off my home and possibly buying a second one. How do I know when enjoying what I have crosses into greed rather than faithful stewardship?Once I pay off a credit card, should I keep it open or close it to protect my credit score? And if it has an annual fee, what's the best way to handle that?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Compass Financial MinistryYour Money Counts: Money on Purpose Conference 2026Movement MortgageOur Ultimate Treasure: A 21-Day Journey to Faithful StewardshipWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

David Morgan breaks his silence on what he calls the most violent correction in silver history—a 30% "waterfall decline" that shook out the leveraged crowd after silver rocketed past $120. Speaking from decades of experience, the Silver Guru dissects the battle between the physical market and the paper derivatives traders who momentarily regained control. He reveals why bullion dealers couldn't keep up, how his own subscribers sold at $107 when spot was crashing, and the "critical minerals" designation that could force the U.S. government to become a buyer of last resort. "The physical market will take control again," Morgan predicts, drawing direct parallels to the legendary Silver Thursday crash of 1980.✅ FREE RESOURCESDownload The Private Wealth Playbook — a data-backed guide to strategically acquiring gold and silver for maximum protection, privacy, and performance.

Ohio has long been at the forefront of the school choice movement—and today tens of thousands of students participate in one of the state's five scholarship programs. In this episode of LiberatED, Kerry McDonald talks with Rabbi Eric "Yitz" Frank, President of School Choice Ohio, and Ann Riddle, Director of Provider School Outreach at School Choice Ohio, to explore how Ohio became a national leader in education freedom. They trace the evolution of the state's first Cleveland Scholarship Program in 1995 to today's increasingly robust voucher programs. But as demand for choice continues to grow, a new challenge has emerged: supply. From facilities constraints to regulatory considerations, what does it take to expand schooling options at scale? The conversation also turns to the new federal education freedom tax credit program and how Ohio is uniquely positioned to benefit—potentially expanding choice to even more families. If you're interested in the intersection of policy, advocacy, and education entrepreneurship, this episode offers a compelling look at how one state is leading the school choice movement. *** Sign up for Kerry's free, weekly email newsletter on education trends at edentrepreneur.org.

A spiritual force is present in each of our homes, and we want to ensure that God's Holy Spirit has the authority over our kitchen tables and gathering spaces. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the importance of prioritizing hospitality and family meals during our busy weeks. He shares lessons we can learn from intentionally meeting together, like character formation, kindness, and integrity, and he teaches from three passages in the Gospels where we see Jesus share meals with His friends Lazarus, Mary, and Martha. In any season of life, we can find time and space to practice hospitality and pour into each other's lives—and let's determine to do so, because when we do, we honor our Lord Jesus.

Election integrity is the "kill switch" of a Republic. If the process is compromised, the system fails. In this America's Founding Series episode, we look at the forgotten story of William Richardson Davie and why his 1787 warnings about foreign influence and factional corruption are the exact reasons we need the SAVE Act today. Explore how Davie's experiences as a Revolutionary War cavalry officer shaped his defense of election security, clean voter rolls, and the constitutional authority behind the Elections Clause. His warnings about factional corruption, foreign influence, and manipulated election rules echo today's debates over voter ID, citizenship verification, and the SAVE Act. What You'll Learn Why the Founders feared corrupted elections more than foreign armies How William Davie explained the Elections Clause as a safeguard against factional abuse Why clean voter rolls and citizenship verification protect public trust How voter ID fits into the Founders' vision of election integrity Why modern debates over the SAVE Act reflect unresolved Founding era concerns This episode connects America's founding warnings to today's election integrity debates and explains why a constitutional republic cannot endure without a secure and trusted electoral process.
The Business Method Podcast: High-Performance & Entrepreneurship
In this episode of The Business Method Podcast, host Chris Reynolds sits down with Kenneth “Hap” Klopp, the legendary former CEO who transformed The North Face from a small outdoor brand into a globally recognized powerhouse. From his early days growing up in Spokane, Washington, to leading one of the most iconic outdoor apparel companies in the world, Hap shares the leadership philosophy that drove his success, one rooted in understanding people, building authentic culture, and balancing commercial growth with environmental responsibility. Hap opens up about how The North Face built demand rather than simply following it, the innovative branding strategies that helped define the company, and the importance of storytelling in creating lasting brand value. He also reflects on sustainability, employee engagement, and how true innovation often comes from staying focused on long-term purpose rather than short-term wins.

This week, Hal and Mark are joined by the great Sandy Armour as they rehash his stories from his time as a player, teacher and a caddie
Banking isn't usually the first place we think about living out our faith. Yet for many believers, where we bank is becoming an important part of faithful stewardship. Financial institutions don't just hold our money—they decide how it's used, invested, and leveraged for impact.That's why faith-based banking is gaining attention. It offers Christians an opportunity to align everyday financial decisions with deeper convictions about money, integrity, and service.Today, we sat down with Aaron Caid, Chief Marketing Officer at Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU) and AdelFi, to talk about why believers may want to reconsider where they bank—and what truly matters when evaluating a financial institution.Start With the Basics: Stewardship Still Requires ExcellenceBefore talking about faith alignment, there's a practical reality we can't ignore: a bank still needs to do its job well.Good stewardship requires systems that are secure, efficient, and reliable. Strong digital tools, responsive customer service, and clear processes aren't luxuries—they're necessities. A banking partner should simplify your financial life, not complicate it with friction, confusion, or outdated technology. In other words, expecting excellence from your bank isn't selfish. It's wise.Once the basics are covered, a deeper question emerges: Does this institution share your values?Every bank makes decisions about how money is used and where it's invested. Those choices reflect a worldview—whether explicit or not. Faith-aligned banking starts from a biblical understanding of stewardship, integrity, and service, recognizing that money is a tool entrusted by God, not an end in itself.Where we bank, then, quietly reflects what we believe about the purpose of money.Faith That Shows Up in ActionOne of the distinctives of organizations like Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU) and AdelFi is that faith doesn't remain a mission statement—it's lived out through tangible generosity.Collectively, these organizations have more than 125 years of supporting Christian ministries, missionaries, church-planting efforts, and disaster relief. Together, they've given millions of dollars toward Christ-centered work around the world.Their impact goes beyond large-scale initiatives. Recent efforts include:Supporting financial discipleship resources for married couples, addressing one of the leading contributors to marital stress and divorce.Partnering with members to contribute over $10,000 to Operation Christmas Child, serving children in need, and sharing the love of Christ.Investing earnings back into members through better rates and lower fees—while also tithing corporately to support gospel work.This is what it looks like when banking becomes a shared mission rather than a purely transactional relationship.Red Flags That May Signal It's Time to Reconsider Your BankRegardless of where you bank today, there are warning signs that may indicate your institution isn't serving you—or your values—well:Unclear or high fees that quietly erode your savingsOutdated technology that complicates everyday money managementPoor access to real people when problems ariseBusiness practices or investments that conflict with your Christian convictionsFeeling like a number, rather than a valued customerThese issues don't just affect convenience—they affect stewardship.What the AdelFi Transition Means for MembersWith the merger of Christian Community Credit Union and AdelFi, members are already seeing expanded services, greater reach, and enhanced capabilities. The combined organization will soon operate under the AdelFi Christian Banking brand, positioning it as the largest Christian banking solution of its kind.The goal is simple: better serve individuals, families, churches, ministries, and Christian-owned businesses—while amplifying Kingdom impact.When financial services function well and align with your faith, your money can serve both your everyday needs and God's Kingdom purposes.As a special opportunity for Faith & Finance listeners, you can earn up to a $400 bonus when opening a qualifying high-yield checking or savings account—or a Visa cash back card.Visit FaithFi.com/Banking and enter code “FAITHFI” to learn more.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I've heard that Social Security limits how much you can have in savings—$2,000 for singles and $3,000 for couples—or you could lose benefits. Is that true?I'm 66 and will soon qualify for full Social Security, but I plan to keep working. I have about $45,000 in savings and am hesitant to invest it in the stock market given current market conditions. What should I do with that money?I want to honor God through generosity, but I give so much that my account sometimes goes negative. I still want to help people in need, but I know I need more wisdom and self-control. How can I balance generosity with saving, and are there any resources you'd recommend?I've set up my will and want to leave one-time gifts to several organizations. The funds are in my 401(k), and I plan to retire in 2027. Is it better to give while I'm alive or wait until after I die—especially from a tax standpoint and for my son?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU) | AdelFiNational Christian Foundation (NCF)Sound Mind Investing (SMI)Our Ultimate Treasure: A 21-Day Journey to Faithful StewardshipWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

What does it take to build a resilient remodeling business that lasts? We sit down with Jeff Russell of Russell Room Remodelers to trace a 37-year journey from a broadcasting grad to a trusted contractor serving the Twin Cities. The conversation moves from hard-won lessons on pricing and financial literacy to the everyday choices that shape trust inside a client's home.Jeff breaks down why many new remodelers undercharge and how to fix it with real numbers: account for every cost, include the life you need to fund, and divide by true billable hours. We dig into the difference between a P&L and a balance sheet, why the balance sheet is your scoreboard, and how those insights guide margin, markup, and cash buffer decisions. A candid story about a flooded kitchen becomes a masterclass in client communication, accountability, and turning a setback into advocacy.On the growth side, Jeff shares how he hires for values first, uses strengths tools to place people where they thrive, and taps associations and roundtables for mentorship, shared labor, and practical frameworks. We talk about marketing that evolved from newspapers to the Remodelers Showcase, a modern website, and social content that documents real work. You'll hear a simple shift that changes everything: aim to make marketing a vending machine, not a slot machine, and keep testing channels like Google Local Services with a clear eye on lead quality and cost.Finally, we explore smart uses of AI—from drafting sensitive client emails to modeling compensation—while stressing verification on technical topics like codes. If you're a remodeler, designer, or contractor looking to price correctly, hire wisely, market with intention, and communicate under pressure, this conversation is your field guide.Enjoyed the episode?

Dr. Friedman sits down with Wall Street Journal and New York Times bestselling author Sean Covey to discuss the 7 Habits. His mission is to advance principle-centered leadership through the Seven Habits, guided by a strong sense of purpose.

Christians often say “Jesus is King,” but live as if someone else has to keep order. Every system promises order. Few ever ask what that order costs. Craig sits down with economist Bob Murphy, author of Chaos Theory, to explore a disruptive question many Christians have never been invited to ask out loud: What if law, safety, and social order didn't require rulers at all? This conversation isn't about voting, parties, or political strategy. It's about discipleship. Craig and Bob wrestle with fear, control, Christian politics, and the quiet assumption that force is necessary to hold a society together. They examine what a voluntary society might look like in real life—how cooperation could replace coercion, why consent matters more than compliance, and what changes when no one gets a special pass to use force “for the greater good.” Along the way, Craig keeps circling back to Jesus. If we wouldn't threaten our neighbor to make things right, why do we trust systems built on threats? And what does it say about our faith when Christian nationalism feels more practical than the Sermon on the Mount? This episode gives listeners language for naming fear, tools for thinking beyond power, and space to ask a deeper question beneath the politics: Do we actually trust the way of Jesus to hold a people together? Their conversation digs into: Why “law and order” feels safe—and what it costs What a voluntary society actually means (and what it doesn't) Contracts, incentives, insurance, and reputation as alternatives to force Why voting isn't the same as consent Fear as a driving force behind Christian politics Christian nationalism as a discipleship problem, not just a political one A simple test: would this be okay if my neighbor did it?
Guest: Hannah Howerter – Ultra Endurance Athlete This week on The Price for Paradise, I brought on my good friend Hannah Howerter — ultra endurance athlete, competitor, and someone who truly embraces the grind. We dive into race stories from:
She was the Ridgewood High School band director. He was a football coach for the Riverview High School team. She dropped her papers in the end zone. He helped pick them up. She eventually got his friend - the band director for Riverview - to have him finally call her to ask for a date. That was beginning of Bill and Cheryl Graham's love story; one that has endured through their combined 112-year teaching careers and beyond. Just in time for Valentine's Day, we hear from Bill and Cheryl about what kept them going through more than five decades in the classroom, how personal tragedy actually deepened their commitment to education, and why they continue to serve students now in their retirement.

Ty Wang, cofounder and CEO of Angle Health, breaks down what it means to give back through public service, then shows how that same mindset drives his mission to modernize healthcare for small and midsize businesses. We get into why legacy health plans feel opaque and painful, what an AI native health plan actually changes behind the scenes, and how better data and workflows can create real cost stability for employers.Ty shares his path from a federal scholarship and national service work to Palantir, and why he chose one of the most regulated, least glamorous industries to build in. If you have ever wondered why healthcare feels impossible to navigate, or why renewals can blindside a company, this conversation will give you a clear mental model of the problem and a practical view of what modernization looks like when it actually ships. Key TakeawaysHealthcare feels broken because the infrastructure is fragmented, data is siloed, and even basic questions become hard to answer across inconsistent systemsModernizing healthcare is not just about a new app, it is about rebuilding the operational core so workflows, claims, underwriting, and member experience can run on integrated dataSmall and midsize businesses are hit hardest by cost volatility because they lack transparency, predictability, and negotiating leverage, yet health insurance is often a top line item after payrollA strong approach to regulated markets is collaborative, treat regulators as partners in consumer protection, not obstacles to work aroundMission and impact can be a recruiting advantage, especially when the technical problems are genuinely hard and the outcomes touch real people fastTimestamped Highlights00:40 What Angle Health is, and what AI native means in a real health plan02:05 The scholarship path that pulled Ty into public service and set his trajectory04:06 The personal story behind the mission, the American dream, and why access matters09:38 Why healthcare infrastructure is so complex, and how siloed systems create bad experiences11:33 Why SMBs get squeezed, and how manual administration blocks customization at scale13:20 The real pain point for employers, cost volatility and zero predictability before renewal16:55 Why the tech can expand beyond SMBs, but why the SMB market is already massive19:51 Lessons from building in a regulated industry, and why credibility and funding matter22:26 Hiring for high agency, mission driven talent in a world full of AI companiesA line that sticks“Unless you are lucky enough to work for a big company, these modern healthcare services are still largely inaccessible to the vast majority of Americans.”Pro Tips for tech operators and buildersIf you are modernizing a legacy industry, start with the infrastructure layer, fix the data model, integrate the systems, then automate workflowsIn regulated markets, build relationships early, show how your product improves consumer outcomes, and make compliance a design constraint, not a bolt onWhen selling into SMBs, predictability beats perfection, give customers a clear breakdown of what drives costs and what they can controlWhat's next:If this episode helped you see healthcare and legacy modernization more clearly, follow the show on Apple Podcasts or Spotify and subscribe so you do not miss the next conversation.

In this episode of Head, Heart, and Boots, Brandon and I sit down with Andrew Dobson, owner of ServPro Team Dobson, one of the largest ServPro operators in the country with nineteen licenses across multiple markets. Andrew shares the full origin story of how he grew up in a family cleaning business, left a creative path that once pointed toward Pixar, and slowly built a restoration operation grounded in process, precision, and relentless attention to detail. We dig into Andrew's partnership with his father, what it takes to successfully merge family businesses, and how clearly defined roles, operating agreements, and trust allowed them to scale without breaking the relationship. Andrew unpacks his obsession with design and user experience, explaining how lessons from web design, baseball, and usability testing shaped everything from warehouse layout to truck setups to customer-facing processes. The conversation goes deep into leadership development, soft skills, and why technical excellence alone is not enough to win in restoration. Andrew shares hard-earned lessons about first impressions, customer perception, sales and operations alignment, and the mistake he made trying to hire leaders without enough industry depth. We also explore his newest venture, Certified Restoration Training, and his mission to raise the standard of professionalism across the industry through technical training and soft skills education. This episode is packed with practical insight for owners trying to scale, leaders developing teams, and anyone who believes that inches add up to miles when it comes to building a great company. Hope you enjoy.

Guest: Nick Pogam Guest Project: Path to Serve Topic: ASVAB realities, ethical recruiting, and career paths beyond the first contract Episode Overview In this episode, Mickey sits down with Nick Pogam, Army veteran, former recruiter, and founder of Path to Serve, joining the conversation from Belgium. Nick shares his journey from an uncertain civilian teenager to infantry soldier, recruiter in Pennsylvania, and eventually a role supporting NATO overseas. Nick pulls back the curtain on military recruitment—what works, what doesn't, and why education matters more than pressure. From taking a practice ASVAB for cash at the mall to helping recruits navigate waivers, LASIK, and long-term career planning, this episode highlights the human side of enlistment and the responsibility recruiters have to do it right. The conversation also explores how young recruits often underestimate the impact of their decisions, why rapport beats sales tactics, and how platforms like Path to Serve aim to give future service members clearer information before they sign on the dotted line. Key Topics Covered Nick's ASVAB journey: scoring a 37 → 57 and choosing infantry The reality of recruiting high school students Ethical recruiting vs. quota-driven recruiting Lessons learned recruiting in Amish country (Lancaster, PA) How social media and community-building support enlistment Helping recruits overcome barriers like vision requirements and waivers Why education and transparency matter in military contracts Career evolution: infantry → platoon sergeant → NATO assignment Building Path to Serve as a trusted enlistment resource Notable Takeaways The ASVAB is often underestimated—but it shapes career options for decades Rapport and trust outperform pressure tactics in recruiting Many recruits don't realize how binding military contracts truly are With mentorship and persistence, waivers and setbacks aren't the end Long-term military careers rarely look like the original plan Who This Episode Is For Students and parents navigating ASVAB and enlistment decisions Recruiters who want to recruit ethically and effectively Service members considering reenlistment or career changes Veterans interested in education-focused military advocacy Path to Serve
