Is your portfolio company's marketing dependent on a single person—or a scalable system? In my experience with Private Equity and mid-market acquisitions, I've seen that "leverage" is often the enemy of a clean exit. If your content creation process relies on one expensive agency or a single creative director, you don't have a system; you have a bottleneck.In this video, I'm breaking down my Commoditized Creativity framework—the exact system I've used to help businesses transitioning through PE acquisitions maintain high-level brand consistency across national territories.

On today's episode of The Sporting Tribune Today, Grant Mona breaks down the Lakers' tough loss at home to the Oklahoma City Thunder and explores the growing concerns around Los Angeles' depth as the season pushes forward. Segment One — Lakers After Loss vs. Thunder Grant opens with the Lakers' postgame reaction following their 119–110 loss to the Thunder at Crypto.com Arena. Los Angeles saw its three-game winning streak snapped, and with both Luka Dončić (hamstring) and Reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdominal) sidelined, the supporting cast stepped in but ultimately came up short in the late stages. Jalen Williams returned for OKC and scored 23 points, while Chet Holmgren added a key double-double to help the Thunder pull away late. Even with LeBron James posting 22 points, 10 assists, and six rebounds, it wasn't enough to overcome execution issues down the stretch. (turn0search30) The segment includes: Lakers' player reactions and candid takes on where the performance fell apart What LeBron had to say about effort, energy, and comparing L.A. to a true championship-caliber squad How the loss impacts momentum in the Western Conference Segment Two — Depth Concerns for the Lakers In the second segment, Grant breaks down what this defeat — and the Lakers' broader season — reveals about the team's lack of depth. L.A.'s injury challenges have magnified the need for reliable backups, especially when stars like Dončić and James miss time. The Lakers' bench has struggled at times to provide consistent scoring and defensive stability, contributing to uneven performances against elite opponents. With L.A. currently sitting around 32–20 in the standings, every loss matters in a crowded Western Conference. Experts have pointed to roster construction and depth issues as critical long-term concerns for a team with championship aspirations. Produced by: Grant Mona Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

There are no shortage of significant disconnects in society today. 

Small textile towns were once common in New England, with stout brick buildings harnessing the power of the region's water to mill yarn and cloth. The Colony family had been owners of a mill in Harrisville, New Hampshire, since before the Civil War, but by the mid-twentieth century, such factories had begun to disappear. In 1970, 53 mills closed in New England, the Colony family's among them. John Colony (known as Chick) returned from serving in the Coast Guard to a mill town without a working mill. Chick saw that the small town would wither unless a new project came in to fill the gap. After considering the options, he had the idea: What better use could there be for an old mill village than to make yarn? So shortly after his father and uncle closed down the mill, Chick opened a business making woolen yarn on some of the same old equipment. The new endeavor was scaled back in scope, but yarn was coming from the old mill buildings once again under the label of a new company, Harrisville Designs. The town's buildings and surrounding watershed became the center of a historic preservation effort. More than 50 years later, Harrisville is known as the best preserved early textile village in the country. Harrisville Designs's woolen-spun yarns are dyed in the wool, blending 12 or 13 brightly dyed fibers into dozens of subtle heathered hues. Initially developed for weaving, the yarns have become popular among knitters looking for yarns with character. The next generation, Chick's son Nick Colony, has taken on management of the mill, developing knitting yarns such as their Nightshades color line and small-batch Shear as well as updating the company's energy production and manufacturing facilities. Harrisville Designs has produced a range of weaving looms for decades, but the youngest weavers probably know the company for their potholder looms. Realizing that the potholder loops and looms on the market were poor quality, Harrisville developed a metal loom and experimented to develop cotton loops in a range of bright colors. Weavers, knitters, and history enthusiasts may all know Harrisville for different reasons, but the effort that began in 1971 as a preservation project has created new futures in this small New Hampshire town.

Zac is back from exile (vacation), and we waste no time launching a conspiracy theory that the "Shop Sounds" podcast is inflating their giveaway numbers. We dive deep into "AI Psychosis" and the Mandela Effect—debating whether the seahorse emoji ever existed and if the Fruit of the Loom logo actually had a cornucopia (it did and Zac will fight anyone who says different). Eric shares his nightmare of trying to cut concrete expansion joints in his shop (creating an "atomic bomb" of dust), and we discuss "Exploding Tree" and “Frozen Fog” weather warnings that sound fake but are terrifyingly real. Plus, we break down proper movie theater etiquette and why Zac is building "invisible speakers" out of construction materials.Got questions?

Friday on The A-Team, Adam Clanton and Adam Wexler look ahead to a critical offseason for the Texans, and share their thoughts on a guard Mel Kiper Jr has penciled in as a possible selection for Houston. However, there is one knock on this prospect that should have the team concerned. Be sure to listen to the audio for the full discussion.

Episode Overview In the second part of this Power Hour series, John Kitchens together with operations expert Joel Perso to tackle one of the biggest bottlenecks holding agents and team leaders back: operational chaos. This session is a practical, back-to-basics masterclass on how to actually build business processes that scale, not just talk about systems. John and Joel break down the difference between systems, processes, SOPs, and checklists—and explain why most agents stay trapped in production because their business only exists in their head. If you've ever said "I need better systems" but felt overwhelmed on where to start, this episode gives you a clear, executable framework to begin documenting, delegating, and scaling—without overcomplicating it. Key Topics Covered Why Processes Are the Foundation of Freedom The difference between being self-employed and owning a real business Why you can't escape a business that only lives in your head How documented processes create leverage, consistency, and delegation Systems vs. Processes (And Why Most People Confuse Them) What a "system" actually is versus a "process" How multiple processes work together to support one system Real-world examples using marketing, listings, and lead conversion Where to Start Building Processes (Without Overwhelm) Identifying your core business processes by function Why lead generation and marketing should come first How to prioritize processes that create the biggest ROI The Power of Simplicity Why Google Docs and checklists beat complex flowcharts How checklists outperform experience alone The 80/20 rule of process design (and why perfection kills momentum) Making Processes Actually Get Used Why SOPs die on the shelf Connecting processes to daily, weekly, and monthly execution How activity checklists turn documentation into action Using AI to Accelerate Documentation Recording what you already do instead of starting from scratch How tools like Loom, Scribe, and AI can create SOPs faster Turning videos into checklists, SOPs, and training assets Leadership, Accountability, and Ownership Why processes should be owned by roles, not people How process ownership improves accountability and scalability Creating a culture of problem-solving instead of rigidity Resources & Mentions The Checklist Manifesto – Atul Gawande Traction / Rocket Fuel (EOS Framework) – Gino Wickman The Goal – Eliyahu Goldratt Trainual – Process documentation & training platform Scribe – AI-powered SOP creation Honey Badger Nation John Kitchens Executive Coaching → JohnKitchens.coach Final Takeaway You don't scale by working harder—you scale by removing guesswork. Processes aren't about control or bureaucracy. They're about clarity, consistency, and creating freedom for you and your team. Start simple. Document what already works. Build checklists before complexity. And remember: a good process that handles 80% of situations beats a perfect one that never gets used.

On today's podcast:1) President Trump said he will meet with several parties over his ambition to take control of Greenland during the upcoming World Economic Forum. Trump said in a Truth Social post early Tuesday morning that he had a “very good telephone call” with Mark Rutte, the secretary general of NATO, concerning the Danish territory. The remarks came shortly after he restated his desire to take over Greenland, which has spooked NATO allies and prompted stern opposition from EU leaders including French President Emmanuel Macron. Meantime, Trump announced a 10% tariff on goods from European countries rallying to Denmark’s side in his pursuit of Greenland, a dramatic escalation in the standoff that sparked strong pushback from some of the US’s closest allies.2) President Trump’s so-called Board of Peace for Gaza is beginning to take shape, even as Israel voiced rare objections to parts of the US president’s plan to build on the fragile ceasefire in the region. China has been offered to join the proposed Board of Peace, as Trump heads to Davos to advance his plan for the Palestinian enclave. The US president has invited a range of world leaders, including Russia’s Vladimir Putin and Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdogan, to become founding members of the board. It’s part of his 20-point plan to ensure a lasting peace and reconstruction of Gaza, following two years of devastating war between Israel and militant group Hamas in the Palestinian territory. President Trump also confirmed that he invited Russian President Vladimir Putin to join the proposed board.3) Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said President Trump could announce his pick for the next Federal Reserve chair as soon as next week, amid intense anticipation over the White House’s search for a new central-bank chief. “We have four fantastic candidates — it will be up to the president, and I would imagine that he will have an announcement maybe as early as next week,” Bessent said in remarks at a press conference Tuesday at Davos, where he is attending the World Economic Forum. The process of picking a successor to current Chair Jerome Powell is seen as a four-person race, with BlackRock Inc.’s Rick Rieder, National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett, Fed Governor Christopher Waller and former governor Kevin Warsh as the final contenders after a long-search that has been led by Bessent.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You've read Nelson Nash. You're sold on IBC. But now what? What actually happens when you reach out to an agency like Remnant Finance?This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at our entire process—from the first intro call to policy delivery and years of ongoing service. We break down the three things you should look for in an advisor (and why only two of them are actually required), explain why we start underwriting before we've finalized your policy design, and get honest about what kind of client we work best with.We also talk about what separates good IBC practitioners from agents who just have a license and a pitch. Spoiler: most people selling life insurance know less about it than you will after a few calls with us. That's not arrogance—our own company reps have told us that.If you're evaluating whether to work with us or someone else, this episode gives you the full picture of what we do, how we do it, and why we do it that way.Chapters:00:00 – Opening segment03:25 – The problem with "I can do IBC" advisors at big firms06:30 – The three credentials: license, company contract, NNI certification08:35 – Why getting a life license is dangerously easy09:45 – Company selection: mutual companies and what makes them IBC-ready10:45 – Captive vs. independent agents13:05 – Why we work with two primary carriers21:05 – What NNI certification actually involves23:45 – Why insurance companies love NNI business (persistency)28:05 – Our process starts: the intro call31:00 – When IBC isn't the right fit (yet)33:00 – Why we filter for worldview—and why that's actually good for you36:45 – "If you have to drag them in, you'll have to drag them around"37:15 – The intake form and application process38:25 – Why we apply for more coverage than you might need43:50 – How underwriting requirements work (the flow chart)47:25 – Strategy calls while underwriting happens in the background52:15 – Policy review: Loom walkthrough vs. live Zoom call55:00 – Policy in force—now what?56:45 – The range of ongoing service: hands-off to hands-on59:00 – There's no industry requirement for ongoing service—ask your agent1:04:45 – Closing thoughts and how to book a callKey Takeaways:A license is just the first step. Getting a life license is easy—memorize a study guide, pay a fee, pass a test. It doesn't mean someone knows how to structure a policy for IBC.Company selection is critical. Only about 10-12 mutual companies can write policies the way Nelson Nash taught. Your agent needs a contract with one of them—and ideally understands the differences between them.Captive agents are limited. If your advisor works for a single company (like Northwestern Mutual), they can only offer that company's products. Independent brokers can match you with the carrier that fits your situation.NNI certification isn't required, but it matters. It's not a legal requirement to sell IBC-style policies, but it signals that an advisor has gone through specific training in Nelson Nash's methodology and stays connected to ongoing education.We start underwriting early—on purpose. The application process takes 4-6+ weeks. We submit it before finalizing your policy structure so the company is waiting on us, not the other way around. Think of it like a mortgage pre-approval.Education happens throughout. Expect 2-4+ calls before your policy is even issued. We want you to understand what you're buying, how it works, and how to use it. This should be the asset you understand the most.

# Trump Administration Supreme Court Cases: Week of January 16, 2026Welcome back to Quiet Please. I'm your host, and today we're diving into what's shaping up to be one of the most consequential weeks in recent Supreme Court history. As we head into the final stretch before the Court's April sitting, there are several major cases involving President Donald Trump that could fundamentally reshape American governance and policy for years to come.Let's start with what's happening right now. The Supreme Court is in what experts at SCOTUSblog describe as "maximum overdrive," with ninety-one cases already relisted for consideration and seventeen new cases added just this week. This Friday's conference marks the last real chance for the Court to grant petitions in time for arguments at the April sitting, the final session of this term. That means decisions are coming fast.Now, the Trump administration is front and center in several pivotal cases. According to reporting from the Constitution Center, one of the most immediate cases is Trump v. Cook, which involves the president's attempt to fire Lisa Cook, a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. Cook began her fourteen-year term in 2023, and Trump tried to remove her this year, alleging mortgage fraud from before her appointment. Here's the constitutional tension: the Federal Reserve Act only allows the president to remove board members "for cause." This case will be argued on January twenty-first, just five days from now, and it represents a much smaller preview of the larger question the Court is grappling with in another case, Trump v. Slaughter.That case, heard in December and coming to decision soon, asks whether the president can unilaterally remove members from independent, multi-member federal agencies without statutory cause. If Trump wins, according to legal analysis from Dykema, it would overturn a ninety-year-old precedent established in Humphrey's Executor v. United States. The background here is significant: Trump dismissed FTC officials Alvaro Bedoya and fired Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve, justifying both removals by saying their roles were inconsistent with his administration's policies.But there's more. According to reporting from Axios, the Supreme Court is also preparing to rule on Trump's birthright citizenship executive order in a case called Trump v. Barbara, expected in early 2026. If upheld, this would fundamentally alter the Fourteenth Amendment guarantee of citizenship to children born in the United States to undocumented immigrants, a right that has stood for over a century.Then there's the tariffs case. Learning Resources Inc. v. Trump will determine whether Trump's invocation of a national emergency to impose extensive tariffs on imported goods without congressional approval is constitutional. What's at stake here is enormous. If the Court rules against Trump, the government could be forced to reimburse over one hundred billion dollars in tariffs already collected from businesses and consumers.According to SCOTUSblog, in an interview transcript, Trump himself said he would pursue tariffs through "some other alternative" if the Supreme Court strikes down his current tariffs, showing just how central this issue is to his policy agenda.What makes this moment particularly significant is that Trump has frequently used the Court's emergency docket during his second term to suspend lower court decisions while legal matters unfold. The administration is essentially testing the limits of executive power across multiple fronts simultaneously.These cases represent nothing less than a potential reshaping of the separation of powers, executive authority over independent agencies, the scope of immigration law, and trade policy. Decisions here could determine whether a president can act unilaterally on major policy questions or whether constitutional checks remain in place.Thank you for tuning in today.

I had my first client call of the year this week, and something she said stopped me in my tracks. Before Christmas, she was spiralling - income had dipped, clients had moved on, she was convinced she was falling behind. A few weeks later? She's calm. She's clear. And what she wants isn't more. It's stability. That conversation sparked this whole episode, because I think a lot of people need to hear this right now. In this episode I'm talking about: → Why the strategy you're following might not be broken, it just wasn't built for you → The difference between scaling seasons and stabilising seasons (and how to know which one you're actually in) → What I saw in her birth chart that explained why the "push harder" advice was never going to work → Why wanting a quieter year isn't a lack of ambition - it's capacity intelligence → The one question I want you to sit with this week If you've been feeling like you're behind already, like everyone else got the memo and you didn't, like you're doing everything right and it's still not clicking - this one's for you. Your business is a constellation. Your chart is the blueprint. When they match, everything holds.

# Trump's Legal Battles Heat Up at the Supreme CourtWelcome back to Quiet Please. We're diving straight into what's shaping up to be a pivotal moment for Donald Trump's presidency, as the Supreme Court prepares to rule on cases that could define his entire second term.Let's start with the centerpiece of Trump's economic agenda. The Supreme Court is preparing to decide the legality of Trump's sweeping tariffs on foreign products, a case Trump himself has called the most important case ever. According to reporting from SCOTUSblog and Yahoo Finance, Trump warned the court in a recent social media post that if they rule against his tariffs, "we're screwed." The court heard arguments back in November, and a ruling could come as soon as this week. What makes this case critical is the stakes involved. If the justices side with Trump's challengers, the government could be forced to refund over 100 billion dollars in tariffs already collected from American businesses and consumers. That's real money that could reshape the economy depending on which way the court goes.But the tariff case is just one piece of a much larger legal puzzle Trump is navigating. According to SCOTUSblog, the Supreme Court is also preparing to hear arguments on January 21st regarding Trump's push to remove Lisa Cook, a member of the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors. This ties into a broader constitutional question about whether Trump has the power to unilaterally fire the heads of independent agencies, which would overturn 90 years of legal precedent if the court rules in his favor. Cook is just one person Trump wants removed. He's also targeted Federal Trade Commission officials, making this a test of executive power that could reshape how the president interacts with the federal bureaucracy.There's another major case looming as well. The Supreme Court will decide the legality of a Hawaii law that prohibits people from carrying firearms onto private property without explicit consent from the owner. This case, Wolford versus Lopez, will test the limits of Second Amendment rights against property rights in a way the court hasn't fully addressed before.Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is also set to address a case challenging prohibitions on conversion therapy for minors, the discredited practice aimed at changing sexual orientation or gender identity. According to Axios, Republicans argue these restrictions violate the First Amendment, framing this as a free speech issue rather than a health and safety matter.Throughout all of this legal maneuvering, Trump has repeatedly used the Supreme Court's emergency procedures known as the shadow docket to suspend lower court decisions while cases are ongoing. According to USA Today, this gave Trump victories on everything from keeping tariffs in place to withholding foreign aid and conducting immigration raids. Now those emergency wins face scrutiny in the full court proceedings.These Supreme Court cases will ripple across Trump's entire presidency, affecting economic policy, executive power, and civil rights all at once.Thanks for tuning in.

We trade shots over the SEC, relive a chaotic fourth quarter, and admit how much a single loss can hijack your week. Then the conversation widens from wins and losses to who gets seen, as hockey's growing diversity becomes a mirror for how culture shifts—slowly, messily, and sometimes beautifully—when kids find new lanes on the ice.And just when you think we can't swerve harder, we go full brain-bender.

We run a live test and tumble into the Mandela Effect: Fruit of the Loom's missing cornucopia, the Monopoly man's non-existent monocle, Looney Tunes vs. Looney Toons, and Pikachu's forever-yellow tail. It's science meets nostalgia with a side of collective delusion—hilarious, humbling, and weirdly bonding.Movies take the wheel as we rank favorite characters, celebrate horror icons like Pinhead, Michael Myers, and Jason, and debate superhero double-dips from Ryan Reynolds to Michael B. Jordan. We mourn the Blade x Underworld crossover that almost happened and shout out fresh releases—Primate, We Bury the Dead, and more. One of us logged 40-plus theater trips last year, so you know the reel talk is deep. It all adds up to a fast, funny ride through sports pain, memory glitches, and the films that keep us talking long after the credits roll.If you had to pick one movie character to ride for, who are you choosing and why?

Joe and Dave weigh in on the Dolphins' offseason, arguing that Miami should make a strong push to bring in John Harbaugh, “handing him the keys” to the franchise. They break down recent quarterback classes, highlighting the success of QBs from the 2024 draft, and Dave suggests Miami should consider drafting a quarterback every year. The discussion turns to the team's overall offseason outlook, the tough decisions facing Stephen Ross, and the need for bold, smart moves to set the Dolphins up for success.
