In this episode, Rabbi David Wolpe joins us for a thought-provoking conversation about the challenges and opportunities facing the Jewish people today. In the wake of October 7th, intra-faith dialogue is as critical as interfaith dialogue. The Jewish community must find ways to foster understanding, break down barriers, and build unity among diverse perspectives. Rabbi Wolpe reflects on the enduring influence of Maimonides, whose teachings continue to resonate across Jewish movements and explores how his philosophy shapes modern Jewish thought. We discuss the evolution of New Atheism, from Christopher Hitchens to Alex O'Connor, and what this shift means for conversations about faith within the Jewish context. The conversation also delves into culturally religious figures like Dennis Prager and Jordan Peterson, examining whether a meaningful religious message can be upheld without traditional observance. Rabbi Wolpe addresses the hardest questions raised by atheists—about evil, belief, and God's hiddenness—and shares his vision for making faith relevant and compelling in a skeptical world. This episode challenges us to think deeply about faith, unity, and the future of Judaism.

Tilden Moschetti, Esq. is a syndication attorney that focuses exclusively on Regulation D offerings for real estate syndicators, business owners, entrepreneurs, and private equity funds. Tilden is a highly regarded expert in syndication as an attorney, a syndication coach, General Counsel to two private equity funds, and an active syndicator himself. He has been featured on NPR, NBC News, People Magazine, the National Law Journal, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the Los Angeles Business Journal. A fundamental difference between Tilden and other attorneys is that Tilden came to the practice of syndication law as a syndicator of his own deals first. Tilden's practice as a real estate attorney changed gears when a partner showed him a deal and asked him if they could syndicate that deal together. Both investors and Tilden made a great return, so he kept syndicating. As his successes grew doing deals, 9 years ago he refocused his firm away from real estate law, to syndication law exclusively.   In this episode, we talked to Tilden about syndications, its differences with joint ventures, common mistakes made by syndicators, vetting syndication attorneys, tips for new passive investors, syndication partners, and much more.   Get ready for REWBCON 2025, happening from April 10th - 12th!

Mastering the Inner and Outer Game of SuccessIn a recent episode of our podcast, we had the pleasure of hosting Dr. Noah St. John, a prolific author and founder of SuccessClinic.com. Known as "Doctor Noah," he has written over 25 books, including his latest, "The Seven Figure Expert." Dr. Noah specializes in helping entrepreneurs and business leaders achieve significant financial growth while reclaiming their personal lives. This episode delves into the dual aspects of success: the "inner game" and the "outer game."Dr. Noah St. John is a renowned expert in personal and professional development. His unique approach focuses on helping clients make more money in just 12 weeks than they did in the previous year, all while maintaining a balanced life. He challenges the conventional hustle culture that promotes relentless work without breaks, advocating instead for a balanced approach where business serves the individual, not the other way around. The inner game refers to the mental and emotional aspects of success, including mindset, beliefs, and emotional states that influence actions and decisions. According to Dr. Noah, a staggering 90% of success stems from mastering the inner game.A significant part of the inner game is what Dr. Noah refers to as "head trash," which describes the negative self-talk and limiting beliefs that hinder individuals from pursuing their goals. By recognizing the impact of head trash, individuals can begin to take steps to eliminate it from their mindset. Dr. Noah also stresses the importance of emotional motivation, urging people to concentrate on the emotions associated with their goals rather than just the material aspects. Additionally, he highlights the power of gratitude, sharing a personal story from 2007 when he faced significant financial challenges and realized the importance of focusing on what he still had. For those interested in diving deeper into these concepts, Dr. Noah's new book, "The Seven Figure Expert," is available for free (with shipping costs) at sevenfigureexpertbook.com.About Dr. Noah St. John:NOAH ST.

On today's episode, we discuss one of the biggest topics in privacy right now, CIPA. CIPA is a privacy law created 30 years ago to help protect people's privacy while using the phone. However, it has recently been reinterpreted by courts to impact website owners. Now, businesses big and small (even 1-person businesses) are being sued across the United States by attorneys looking to take advantage of the confusion. Our guest, today is Jason Kelly. Jason is a Partner at Annaguey McCann, a litigation law firm in Los Angeles, who uses his experience in complex commercial disputes to help companies resolve disruptive lawsuits and find pragmatic solutions aligned with their goals. Jason litigates individual cases and class actions involving claims of fraud, anticompetitive behavior, and more.

He has helped clients respond to and litigate claims of CIPA violations. Email: jason@annagueymccann.comLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/jasonykelly

When Vin Scully passed away in 2022, the city of Los Angeles lost its soundtrack. If you were able to deliver a eulogy for him, what might it include? What impact did he have on you? What do you carry forward from his legacy? Sixty-seven essayists—one representing each season of his career calling games for the Los Angeles Dodgers, from 1950 through 2016—reflect on the ways his professional and private life influenced them. The contributions include a range of stories and remembrances from those who knew and followed him. The consensus of the contributions is that Scully's actions spoke louder than his well-recognized words. This collection includes fellow broadcasters as well as historians, players, journalists, celebrities, and others connected to the game of baseball, with each piece introduced by sports journalist Tom Hoffarth. Readers can consider Scully's life through common themes: his sincerity, his humility, his professionalism, his passion for his faith, his devotion to his family, his insistence on remembering and giving context to important moments in the history of not just the game but the world in general, all wrapped up in a gift for weaving storytelling with accurate reporting, fellowship with performance art, humor, and connection. Tom Hoffarth is an Associated Press award-winning journalist with more than forty years of experience reporting in Southern California, focusing on sports and the media. He has written for the Southern California News Group, the Los Angeles Times, Hollywood Reporter, Angelus News, National Catholic Reporte, Los Angeles Business Journal, and Sports Business Journal. He is a coauthor (with Tom Kelly) of Tales from the USC Trojans Sideline: A Collection of the Greatest Trojans Stories Ever Told. Ron Rapoport worked as a sports columnist for the Chicago Sun-Times for more than twenty years and is the author of Let's Play Two: The Legend of Mr. Cub, the Life of Ernie Banks and the editor of The Lost Journalism of Ring Lardner (Nebraska, 2017).

He has been featured on NPR, NBC News, People Magazine, the National Law Journal, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the Los Angeles Business Journal. A fundamental difference between Tilden and other attorneys is that Tilden came to the practice of syndication law as a syndicator of his own deals first. Tilden's practice as a real estate attorney changed gears when a partner showed him a deal and asked him if they could syndicate that deal together. Both investors and Tilden made a great return, so he kept syndicating. As his successes grew doing deals, 9 years ago he refocused his firm away from real estate law, to syndication law exclusively. Get in Touch with TildenWebsite: https://www.moschettilaw.com/ YouTube: Moschetti Syndication Law PLLCTo Connect With UsPlease visit our website www.bonavestcapital.com and click here to leave a rating and written review!

One Man's Trash is Another Man's Treasure Ryan Kugler, APlanBe.com   – The Sharkpreneur podcast with Seth Greene Episode 935 Ryan Kugler Ryan Kugler is the President and owner of three different companies, A5 Events, Ideal Content, and Plan B (which is one of the nation's largest secondary wholesalers in the country).    Born in Chicago, Ryan moved to Los Angeles at a young age where he took a strong interest in the film industry and made his way onto several studio lots. When he was 13, Ryan developed a friendship with Ted Danson while on the set of NBC's hit TV show Cheers. At the request and urging of Danson, Ryan wrote and directed his own short film entitled “The Question.” The film was shot on the Paramount Lot and starred Ted Danson, Kirstie Alley, Woody Harrelson and George Wendt. From then on Ryan knew he wanted to work in the entertainment industry.   Ryan began working at the family business called DVA (a film distribution company), on his summer breaks while attending school. Upon finishing school, he moved to Florida to work full time at DVA in sales. It took him only a short time to learn the ropes, and he quickly moved up to Buyer, soon followed by VP of Purchasing. With his unique blend of creative and operational strengths as well as his exceptional skills in sales, Ryan founded the Wholesale Division of DVA, Inc., which would help make DVA, Inc. one of the nation's largest video wholesalers bringing in annual sales of upwards of $20 million.   In 1998, Ryan brought his wholesale division to Los Angeles. Since then, he has developed exclusive relationships with many of the major movie studios, finding secondary homes for films and distributing to over 350 accounts including Best Buy, Target, and other major retailers (totaling over 24,000 storefronts at the time). In 2013 Ryan saw the writing on the wall (DVDs declining and people watching films on line) and thus left the family business of DVA, and started not 1, but 3 different companies (testing his wits); Plan B, which buys and sells closeouts from manufacturers, and retailers (Plan B has help moved some 500 million pieces of inventory across many different products, giving a second life to the product life cycle, with combined sales of some 500 million over the his last 30 years). Ryan also started an event company named, A5 Events which produces corporate events for large corporations and Non-Profits organizations which helps raise funds with charity events such as 5K/10K Run walks nationwide; and lastly Ryan started a marketing company called, Ideal Content which works with Fortune 500 companies producing very unique and high-end marketing material that stand apart from the others.    As a public face for the entertainment industry, and the event industry Ryan has appeared both on national TV and in print.

With over 25 years of experience, Channing has built a solid reputation for his expertise in management advice, transaction execution, and business valuation. This has earned him multiple accolades, including three consecutive years as a Leader of Influence: Investment Bankers by the Los Angeles Business Journal (2020-2022). SELLING AT A PREMIUM As an investment banker, Channing stresses the importance of companies understanding what drives value in their sector, building predictability into their business, and having a clear differentiation or unique selling proposition. Understanding the value drivers in your sector is paramount to preparing a sale. Every industry has different value drivers, and companies need to do their research and figure out what drives value in their industry. They should also be aware of who their potential buyers are and what they are looking for. Building predictability into a business and having recurring revenue streams and systematizing operations are also a vital step in preparing for sale. This makes the business more attractive to potential buyers, as they can see that the business is predictable and has a solid foundation for growth. There is also an increasing importance of having clean accounting and financial projections that are believable and achievable. Buyers are raising their standards, and companies need to be well-prepared to successfully sell their business at a premium. CHANGING MARKET CIRCUMSTANCES In an ever-growing market, the impact of fluctuating market conditions on company valuations cannot be overstated. As industries and sectors experience growth, disruption, and transformation, businesses must continually adapt to maintain their competitiveness and relevance. These dynamic market forces have a direct bearing on the valuation of companies, necessitating that they stay vigilant and responsive to shifts in consumer preferences, technological advancements, and regulatory changes. Channing explains that Objective Capital Partners provides valuation services in three areas: Financial reporting Tax compliance Advisory valuation When embarking on advisory valuations, the key to success lies in actively listening to business owners and thoroughly comprehending their objectives. By establishing a strong rapport and fostering open communication, Channing and his team can effectively tailor their approach to meet the unique goals of each client. To ensure optimal decision-making, the team employs a rigorous methodology that involves modeling multiple scenarios and stress-testing financial projections. This comprehensive approach allows them to identify potential risks, opportunities, and growth drivers, providing business owners with the necessary insights to make well-informed decisions. Their unwavering commitment to understanding client needs and delivering accurate, actionable advice allows them to remain consistent and trustworthy resources for businesses seeking to maximize their potential. The market for mergers and acquisitions can be impacted by changing circumstances, such as rising interest rates, but Channing believes that the market will eventually adjust and stabilize. He also notes that there may be opportunities for estate planning in the current market environment. • • • For my full discussion with Channing Hamlet, and more on this topic and others discussed:Listen to the Full DealQuest Podcast Episode Here• • • FOR MORE ON CHANNING HAMLET:https://objectivecp.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/channinghamlet/ Corey Kupfer is an expert strategist, negotiator, and dealmaker.

She shares that the show will be unveiling “a fresh look” by the end of the year.  -The state of the real estate market, with prices and interest rates “evening out,” so it's no longer a seller's market, but not to be feared.  Interest rates now of 4 to 5.5 percent are still much lower than when she entered the field in her early 20s. -Host John shares that his West Hollywood property he purchased with Tracy's help has already increased in value from $2.5 million to $3.1 million since purchasing last year. -The LA market has slowed in the $5- to $10-million market, but is “booming” in the $30 to $70-million range, according to Tracy. -The luxury home market, over $10 to $20- million, is almost always cash deals, and represents 20 percent of the real estate business for the company in which she works (Douglas Elliman Beverly Hills). -Fewer people, unless international buyers, are drawn to high-rise living in LA like they are in other popular cities. Instead, they prefer to be outside due to the favorable weather and have properties with backyards. -Best LA real estate investments are “generational assets,” where you look for areas that have an infrastructure being improved upon and built. The financial gain is over the long-term, as LA has run out of space. -The influx of brand name hotels now coming to LA. -Tracy's favorite TV shows.   About Tracy Tutor  Tracy Tutor is a top real estate agent at Douglas Elliman Beverly Hills, consulting with some of the world's top architects and developers.
