At 16, his grandmother fled Kraków after the Nazis killed her father, worked a New York factory floor beside her mother, and applied to every medical school in the state three years running before one finally said yes — then told her second-grade grandson that education is the only thing nobody can ever take away from him.Years later, David Rogier quit his venture capital job with no idea what he wanted to build, and his boss wrote him a check for $500,000 and told him to go think of something; the dark, formless year that followed became MasterClass, whose holding company still carries his grandmother's nickname. Launch day brought so few sales that he went home and cried, and by day four it was obvious he had a real business on his hands. In this conversation, David breaks down how he got Hollywood's biggest names to say yes, why he believes degrees and résumés are quickly becoming worthless, and the three kinds of jobs he thinks will actually survive AI. David Rogier is the founder and CEO of MasterClass, the platform that put instruction from Martin Scorsese, Christina Aguilera, Steph Curry, and dozens of other world-class practitioners into the hands of millions of learners. He built it from a single $500,000 check and has since launched MasterClass Executive, an AI-native alternative to the traditional MBA created in collaboration with OpenAI and the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

What if the greatest cure for our distracted, scroll-addicted minds was written over 3,000 years ago? Deuteronomy isn't just repeating the Torah. It's teaching us how to pay attention. The fifth book of the Torah—Deuteronomy (Mishneh Torah)—is often dismissed as simply a review of what came before. But what if Moses' final retelling wasn't repetition at all, but one of the Torah's deepest lessons about how human beings learn, remember, and grow? In this episode of Madlik, Geoffrey Stern and Rabbi Adam Mintz explore how the Torah transforms review into a transforming discipline. From Ben Bag Bag's famous teaching, "Turn it over and turn it over, for everything is in it," to the Talmud's praise of the student who reviews a lesson 101 times, Judaism offers a timeless antidote to our modern epidemic of distraction. Along the way, we compare Moses' retelling of the story of the spies with its original telling in Numbers, discovering how each retelling reveals new truths. We explore why detectives, trial lawyers, and cognitive scientists know that repetition uncovers what first impressions often miss. And we meet an unexpected companion on the journey—the Roman philosopher Seneca—whose warnings about information overload sound uncannily like a critique of today's endless scrolling. Drawing on Moses, the Rabbis, the Stoic philosopher Seneca, and contemporary cognitive science, this conversation uncovers timeless practices for overcoming distraction, deepening attention, strengthening memory, enriching relationships, and living a more meaningful and connected life. If our greatest challenge today is not a lack of information but an inability to focus on what truly matters, perhaps the Bible's great book of reflection contains one of the newest and most necessary lessons. Join us as we discover why the path to wisdom isn't always found by chasing something new, but by returning to timeless ideas with fresh eyes—and renewed attention. Key Takeaways Repetition Isn't Redundancy—It's Revelation  -Deuteronomy doesn't simply repeat the Torah; it reinterprets it. Moses teaches that every return to a familiar story can reveal a deeper truth. As Ben Bag Bag taught, "Turn it over and turn it over, for everything is in it." Attention Is a Transforming Discipline - From the rabbis' praise of reviewing a lesson 101 times to Seneca's warning against skimming too many scrolls, wisdom grows not from consuming more information but from dwelling deeply with what truly matters. The antidote to distraction is not novelty—it's sustained attention. Growth Comes from Returning - Whether studying Torah, reflecting on our own lives, or listening to another person's story, every retelling changes us. The Torah reminds us that meaning isn't found by constantly moving on, but by returning with fresh eyes, a deeper perspective, and an open heart.

There was a time when almost everyone knew how to grow food, preserve it, and fill a pantry that could carry a family through every season. Somewhere along the way, many of us lost those skills and we also lost the confidence that comes from knowing how to care for ourselves and the people we love. In this conversation, food preservation expert Diane Devereaux shares how to bring those traditions back. You'll learn how to eat better, living more intentionally, and passing practical wisdom to the next generation. We talk about gardening, canning, freeze drying, seasonal eating, food security, preserving water, caring for pets, and why a single jar of homemade strawberry jam can make the middle of winter feel like pure joy. This episode will leave you inspired to start wherever you are. Find Diane's books, courses, and resources at https://canningdiva.com and https://canning.university. A huge thank you to our sponsors!

On this episode of The Rumors Are True, we welcome Ryan Dominguez from the band Tokyo Rose. Ryan joins us for a conversation about the formation of Tokyo Rose, the New Jersey emo and pop-punk scene of the early 2000s, and the journey that led the band from local shows to national tours, the Vans Warped Tour, and the release of beloved albums including Reinventing a Lost Art, New American Saint, and The Promise in Compromise. We also dive into the stories behind the albums, discussing the producers the band worked with, how those collaborations helped shape Tokyo Rose's signature sound, and the creative thought that went into each record. Ryan also shares memories about the album artwork, the inspiration behind the visual direction of the releases, and how the imagery became an important part of the band's identity. In addition, we discuss the band's long hiatus, what inspired their return, the excitement of writing and releasing new music again, the remastered anniversary edition of New American Saint, and how it feels to reconnect with longtime fans while introducing Tokyo Rose to a new generation. Ryan shares stories from the road, the creative process behind the band's music, lessons learned over the years, and what's next for Tokyo Rose as they continue this exciting new chapter. If you grew up on early-2000s emo and pop-punk, or you're discovering Tokyo Rose for the first time, you won't want to miss this conversation. Thanks for listening to The Rumors Are True!

Guest JoAnne Duncan has had a varied career, from Alaskan fly-fishing guide to elementary teacher and principal, always focused on valuing the strengths of every student and staff member. Though she's stepped away from her career in public education, she continues to learn, grow, and inspire others. A lifelong learner, she finds joy and insight outdoors, exploring nature and discovering new ideas, always growing, always learning, and always curious.   Summary In Part 1 of this episode, JoAnne reflected on her unconventional path into education, her transition into school leadership, and ultimately her decision to leave the profession because of the toll it was taking on her physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Since leaving, JoAnne has focused on what she calls "radical self-care," prioritizing physical and mental health through activities like yoga, swimming, and surfing in Hawaii. This period of recovery has restored her well-being and opened space for reflection about her future. While she continues to enjoy substitute teaching, she is exploring new directions, particularly those involving helping others, possibly through fitness, motivation, or personal growth. JoAnne and I have known each other for years, so when I learned she was struggling with what to do next, I proposed that we both read Elizabeth Weingarten's book, How to Fall in Love with Questions: A New Way to Thrive in Times of Uncertainty, to see what comes up for us. The central message of the book is that uncertainty is not a problem to be solved as quickly as possible; it is a condition of life that can foster growth, insight, and self-discovery when approached with curiosity and patience. The book was inspired by Elizabeth's own questions and her reading of the Austrian poet Rainer Maria Rilke, who believed that we can benefit from "falling in love with our questions"—in effect, living patiently with them. Part 2, then, explores our takeaways from reading Elizabeth's book. You can hear my conversation with Elizabeth in episode #421: https://bit.ly/44HQsAk A key takeaway Burnout isn't always a signal to work harder—it may be an invitation to rethink the questions you're asking about your life. By embracing uncertainty with curiosity and self-compassion, you can find opportunities that align more closely with your values and well-being.

What if survival is not about expensive gear but about mindset? Redneck engineering proves that resilience comes from creativity, grit, and knowing how to use what is already in your hands. When things break or systems fail, practical self reliance becomes your greatest advantage.Mentioned In This Episode:Support Practical Prepping72 Hour Prepping ChecklistProof Vanguard Pen  Use discount code "Prepper"Download this episodeRedneck engineering is more than a stereotype. It is a mindset rooted in resourcefulness, adaptability, and practical problem solving. Originally, the term redneck referred to rural farmers in the Southern United States who worked long hours in the sun. Over time, the word evolved. Today it can describe someone who is plainspoken, hardworking, and self reliant. While sometimes used as an insult, many proudly embrace it as a symbol of resilience and ingenuity.At its core, redneck engineering is about creating functional solutions when pre made gear is unavailable. It reflects the simple philosophy of fix it now with what you have. Whether building an improvised shelter from natural materials, stringing a tarp between trees with paracord, or repurposing contractor trash bags as moisture barriers, the focus is always on knowledge over gear.This mindset also applies to home security. Simple upgrades like replacing short door screws with three inch wood screws can dramatically strengthen entry points. Wooden dowels in sliding door tracks, crossbars for doors, and strategic landscaping with thorny bushes can deter intruders without advertising that you are security conscious.Many everyday items can serve multiple purposes. Paracord strands become fishing line or sewing thread. A stainless steel water bottle allows you to boil water over a fire. Even common household objects can be adapted in emergencies.Our grandparents practiced these principles during the Great Depression. They planted gardens, preserved food, repaired clothing, and lived by the creed use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without.Redneck engineering is not about appearances. It is about competence. When you cultivate resourcefulness through practice, you build confidence and resilience for whatever comes next. If you find value in what we do, if you've learned something new, gotten an idea for something you need to do, been entertained, or just like Krista's Southern charm, would you be willing to give back a little?You can do that one of several ways.     Go to our support page               OR     By starting your Amazon shopping from our website? --->  CLICK HERE        (We earn from qualifying Amazon purchases)Contact us:Practical PreppingWebsiteOur Sponsors:Practical Prepping BooksProof Minimalist Wallets (Discount code PREPPER)ProLine Digital Group   Website  Email1791gunleather.com (Discount code: PREP15) SurfsharkPodcast music written and recorded by Krista LawleyWebsite design and hosting by ProLine Digital Group.Podcasts Copyright 2026, P3 Media Group, LLC, and Practical Prepping Podcast

We live in a world where our watches tell us how we slept, how recovered we are, how hard we should train and even how stressed we are. While technology can be incredibly useful, many runners have become so dependent on it that they no longer trust what their own body is telling them.In this episode, Isobel and Ron discuss why learning to run by feel is one of the most valuable skills you can develop, especially if you want to become a stronger trail and ultra runner. They talk about why pace and heart rate are often poor guides on technical trails, how perceived effort becomes your most reliable tool on race day, and practical ways to start reconnecting with your body's signals.If you have ever cancelled a session because your watch said you were "unrecovered" despite feeling great, or pushed through exhaustion because the numbers looked good, this episode is for you.

In this episode of Anchored, I'm joined by Adrian Cortes, a passionate steelheader, hand fly tyer, and critical care nurse whose approach to fly fishing is as thoughtful as it is unconventional. Born in the Philippines and now based in the Pacific Northwest, Adrian has become known for tying intricate flies entirely by hand—without a vise—and for his deep appreciation of traditional steelhead fishing, bamboo rods, and the history of the craft. In this conversation, we dive into his journey, his philosophy, and why slowing down might just make us better anglers. I hope you enjoy this one. Looking to go deeper with your learning?

Send us Fan Mail“There you are!”  In this week's episode we talk a bit more about the lost art of small talk.  This week I give you a few tips on different ways to think about it and also topics or situations that can help you feel more comfortable.  Acronyms like S_O_F_T_E_N or F_O_R_D or A_R_E which can help you with your body language as well as topics ideas or ways to go about engaging in small talk. Also I love the reminder that small talk is supposed to be aimless, it is not about what you are talking about but that you are simply willing to talk to each other.   One helpful metaphor is the idea of small talk as a bridge to a new relationship.  I share a few more metaphors and tips to help with your small talk with others.  For shownotes and transcripts go to www.findingthefloor.com/ep262 I would love to hear from you!  You can reach me at camille@findingthefloor.com or dm @findingthefloor on instagram.  Thanks for listening!!Thanks to Seth Johnson for my intro and outro original music.  I love it so much!

The Apostle Paul was a wonderful encourager to all of those who supported and benefited from his ministry and message and nowhere is that more evident than in his letter to the churches. Since Thessalonians is one of his first letters, it reveals why and how he saw encouragement to be a natural outflow of a Spirit filled and transformed heart. Join us to discover how we can become encouragers and why it is such a vital part of our Christian growth and ministry. From 1st Thessalonians 3:6-13. Thank you for listening to our podcast and we would love for you to subscribe to our page and share with others. Join us for our weekly worship online at www.firstbaptistblowingrock.com or our Youtube page. Contact us at office@firstbaptistblowingrock.com or by phone @ 828-295-7715

Send us Fan Mail This week I am exploring the idea of small talk and calling it a lost art.  I notice how I am really not very good at it and want to try to be better.  Essentially I call it a way to notice people and make connections even for just a moment.  I mention how our phones are a contributing factor along with COVID helping us be a bit out of practice. I share a particularly mortifying experience while in line at Home Depot with my kids year ago.  I include some info shared by Ellen Hendriksen about the importance of acquaintances, especially to help us feel like we belong in a community.  I give an example of my sister in law who is especially good at talking to anyone.  Finally I talk of how Christ noticed people and that is what we are essentially doing when we decide to small talk with someone. For more info and show notes go to www.findingthefloor.com/ep261 I would love to hear from you!  You can reach me at camille@findingthefloor.com or dm @findingthefloor on instagram.  Thanks for listening!!Thanks to Seth Johnson for my intro and outro original music.  I love it so much!

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie directors! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we discuss one of the greatest film directors to ever live: Steven Spielberg! Our B-Sides are 1941, Hook, Amistad, and The Adventures of Tintin. Our guest is dear friend and incredible writer Bilge Ebiri! As of this writing, he just published his piece The Raider of a Lost Art, an oral history about Spielberg in conjunction with the release of his new film Disclosure Day. He's also discussed Spielberg with The Film Stage before! We chat about Spielberg's early start and the difficult production of 1941, his stratospheric ‘80s, the successful failure of Hook, and his underrated Amistad. There's a celebration of Spielberg's improbable millennium run of films, from Saving Private Ryan through Munich. The three of us dig into why Bilge loves Hook so much, he speaks on some additional, unpublished gems from his oral history piece, we appreciate the genius of John Milius, and the impossible camera that injects so much energy into The Adventures of Tintin.

We've never been more connected, and we've never been more alone. Men have endless ways to reach each other and almost no reason they'll actually use them. We don't reach out. We don't check in. We won't pay another man a compliment without slapping "no homo" on the end of it to make sure nobody mistakes us for caring. And somewhere along the way, we decided that the first flowers a man receives should arrive at his funeral. This week, AJ Kazmierczak joins the show to tear that pattern apart. We get into why connection is the single most valuable skill a man can build, how to develop it on purpose, and why most guys would rather avoid the discomfort of self-auditing than face what's actually holding them back. We talk accountability, discernment, evolving without losing yourself, and what it really costs to be the kind of man other men want in their corner.   SHOW HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 - Episode Introduction 01:30 - Reconnecting After Montana Knife Company 05:20 - Why Men Are More Connected Yet More Isolated 08:00 - The Lost Art of Complimenting Other Men 12:57 - Building Relationships Through Small Conversations 16:24 - Accountability and Encouragement in Unexpected Places 21:16 - Why Communication Skills Matter More Than Credentials 24:47 - Whose Opinions Should Actually Matter 31:21 - Creating an Identity Instead of Fitting In 35:49 - Authenticity, Attention, and Standing Out 38:36 - Evolving Without Losing Yourself 42:55 - Why Honest Feedback Is So Rare 45:09 - Self-Auditing and Becoming More Self-Aware 49:08 - Fast Decision Makers vs Overthinkers 51:59 - The Problem With Being the "Nice Guy" 54:14 - Technical Reset + Bringing It Home 55:12 - Redefining What It Means to Be Alpha 57:36 - Family, Purpose, and Building a Meaningful Life 01:00:18 - Connection, Conversation, and Community 01:01:12 - Winter Strong, Sorenex, and Future Plans 01:02:59 - Final Thoughts and Closing Remarks   Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!

When we talk about mythic fiction, it's easy to assume mythic stories are created through familiar ingredients: archetypes, symbolism, old myths, epic structure. But I don't think that's where mythic storytelling begins. In this post/podcast, I explore seven practices and mindsets that help writers reconnect with what the lost art of mythmaking--not just  borrowing of old symbolic forms, but accessing the deeper creative process from which meaningful stories emerge in the first place. We talk about: • Why mythic stories often feel like they come *through* us rather than *from* us • How dreamzoning and flow states support deeper storytelling • Why "shoulds" can block archetypal imagination • How asking questions opens access to mythic resonance • The deeper shape beneath story structure • Why confronting the shadows matters for writers • How mythic storytelling functions as transformation and initiation Mythic fiction isn't just a genre or an aesthetic. At its deepest level, it is a way of relating to story itself. If you've ever wanted to write stories that feel more alive, more resonant, or more meaningful, but weren't sure how to move beyond technique alone, this conversation offers a practical place to begin. 01:50 What Is Mythic Fiction? 02:34 What Mythic Fiction Is Not 04:07 What Mythic Fiction Is 05:12 The Lost Art of Mythmaking 06:31 Practice #1: Entering the Flow State 08:49 Practice #2: Clear the "Shoulds" That Block Archetypal Imagination 09:58 Practice #3: Ask Questions Instead of Arriving With Answers 11:32 Practice #4: Study the Deeper Shape Beneath Story Structure 12:56 Practice #5: Study the Stories That Create Mythic Resonance 15:07 Practice #6: Be Fearless Enough to Enter the Shadows 17:11 Practice #7: Approach Archetypal Storytelling With Humility and Responsibility 18:16 Learning How to Imagine Better 19:22 Writing Masterclass: Alchemizing Plot, Character, and Theme Read the transcript: https://helpingwritersbecomeauthors.com/how-to-write-mythic-fiction-practices LINKS & RESOURCES Want More?
