In this inspiring strength training transformation story, Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson sit down with Coach Mac McGregor and his longtime client, Gillespie Ferguson, to explore one of the most powerful journeys ever shared on Beast Over Burden. Once a self-described "unathletic" late starter plagued by chronic pain, self-doubt, and years of setbacks, Gillespie rebuilt not just his lifts but his entire understanding of what he was capable of. Through patient coaching, persistent work, and a deep friendship formed through the process, he transformed from a hesitant beginner into a confident, physically capable Coast Guard volunteer on the Isle of Skye. In this candid conversation, Mac and Gillespie walk through the early struggles of pain and insecurity, the slow technical rebuild of every lift, the psychological work of staying committed through setbacks, and the surprising breakthrough that came years into training. They also share the dramatic impact of Lyme disease, the process of starting over from scratch, and why knowing how to train is the ultimate form of resilience. This episode is a reminder that strength is not reserved for the gifted—it's for anyone willing to start, struggle, and keep showing up. Whether you're a beginner, someone returning from pain, a coach working with complex clients, or simply someone who needs to hear that transformation is possible at any age, this is an episode you don't want to miss. What You'll Learn in This Episode How Gillespie went from chronic pain and self-doubt to the strongest he's ever been Why rebuilding technique can feel slow—but changes everything The role of psychology, confidence, and patience in long-term coaching How Coach Mac used experimentation and customization to solve persistent pain What to do when progress stalls (sometimes for months at a time) The breakthrough moment when strength finally "clicked" How improved nutrition and mindset accelerated transformation The surprising impact of Lyme disease—and how to start over the right way Why strength training skills stay with you for life How training helped Gillespie earn a place in the Coast Guard Why this strength training transformation story is so powerful for late starters Timestamps 00:00 – Intro: Meet Mac & Gillespie 02:25 – Gillespie's beginnings: not athletic, not confident, but willing 07:40 – Early training attempts & meeting the first lifters who inspired him 11:10 – Working with Carl Schutt & the challenges that carried into lockdown 15:55 – The first in-person session with Mac & rebuilding from scratch 21:30 – Psychology of pain, fear, and believing you're "not built for strength" 26:05 – The slow technical fix: empty bar squats, 40-kg deadlifts, constant troubleshooting 30:20 – When progress finally took off: nutrition, confidence, and consistency 35:42 – Hitting big PRs: 187.5 kg deadlift, 140 kg squat, and more 39:55 – Disaster strikes: the onset of Lyme disease 43:20 – Starting over with a fresh LP after treatment 47:00 – Becoming Coast Guard–ready: strength meets service 50:25 – What Gillespie wishes he could tell his younger self 54:10 – Mac and Gillespie reflect on friendship, persistence, and purpose 58:00 – Final thoughts & how coaching changes lives PS: Get early access to Black Friday Sales > https://bit.ly/3LmWhx2 - Save 50% on Online Coaching and Nutrition - Save up to 50% on the Barbell Academy - Gift Strength and get a bonus month Connect with the hosts Niki on Instagram Andrew on Instagram Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram Podcast Webpage Barbell Logic on Facebook Or email podcast@barbell-logic.com
Arcana Coelestia 7902. Innocence consists in acknowledging that in oneself there is nothing but evil, and that all good is from the Lord; and also in believing that man does not know or perceive anything from himself, but from the Lord, thus also the truth which is of faith. When man is in this state, then falsity can be removed from him, and truth can be instilled by the Lord. This state is what is signified by the unleavened things, and also by the eating of the paschal lamb. AC 7854 Upon things bitter. That this signifies by means of the undelightful things of temptations, is evident from the signification of “bitter things” or “bitternesses” as being things undelightful, here those which belong to temptations. For the good of innocence, which is represented by the paschal lamb, cannot be appropriated to anyone except through temptations. By “unleavened bread” such good is signified, and because this is appropriated through temptations, the bread was ordered to be eaten upon bitter things; and moreover, that bread was to them bread of affliction, like the manna (Deut. 8:15, 16; 16:3), because it was devoid of leaven, that is, of any falsity from evil, for man cannot endure pure truth and pure good. That things undelightful are signified by “bitter things,” is plain in Isaiah: Woe to them that call evil good, and good evil; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! (Isa. 5:20).They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it (Isa. 24:9).That the undelightful things of temptations are signified by “bitter things” is evident from these words in Exodus:At last they came unto Marah, but they could not drink of the waters, on account of their bitterness, because they were bitter. And the people murmured against Moses, who, when he cried unto Jehovah, Jehovah showed him wood which he cast into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There He set for him a statute and a judgment, because there He tried him (Exod. 15:23-25).And also in John:There fell from heaven a great star, burning as a torch. The name of the star is called Wormwood, and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter (Rev. 8:10-11).In these passages “bitter waters” denote the undelightful things of temptations; the “men who died of the waters” denote those who succumbed in temptations.

Everyone loves a "we closed" post… but nobody talks about what actually happens next. Year one of operations is the most chaotic, most demanding, and least "passive" part of multifamily real estate — and most people have no idea what they're stepping into. In this episode, I break down the real work behind owning and operating apartments. Year one is where the property starts talking to you. Tenants, lenders, partners, vendors — everyone needs something. Problems you never saw in due diligence suddenly show up. Bills spike. Delinquency hits. Contractors ghost you. Utilities jump. And every weakness in your business plan gets exposed instantly. This is the part Instagram never shows. In this episode, we cover: – Why year one feels like a constant fire drill – The truth about older buildings and hidden issues – Delinquency, turnover, and the residents you "inherit" – The vendor and contractor chaos nobody warns you about – Cash flow pressure, tax deadlines, and insurance headaches – Weekly operator habits that keep a deal alive – Why year one determines the success of the entire hold period – What real operators do when the pain hits If you're in year one right now, you're not crazy — you're becoming an operator. If you're thinking about becoming a GP, listen with both ears open. And if you're an LP, this is why operators get paid what they get paid.

On this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Benjamin Kanner, CEO and co-founder of 3V Infrastructure, a company focused on delivering long-term, scalable EV charging solutions for multifamily portfolios. With a background spanning commercial real estate, renewable energy project finance, and multiple startups, Ben brings a uniquely holistic view of how electrification intersects with property ownership and investor demand. His company's model—installing, owning, and operating EV chargers at no cost to property owners—creates a compelling new amenity for renters while helping owners stay ahead of rapidly shifting consumer expectations. Throughout the conversation, Ben and Jonathan discuss the accelerating adoption of electric vehicles, why multifamily properties sit at the center of this transition, and the economic forces shaping the need for reliable, long-dwell charging infrastructure. Ben explains the cost drivers behind EV ownership, how modular battery technology is evolving, and why Level 2 charging is the most practical option for home-based needs. He also breaks down how 3V underwrites utilization, diversifies risk across large portfolios, and helps property owners increase rents and tenant satisfaction—all without capital outlay. Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of how EV charging impacts NOI, what's really happening with power demand, why used EV markets will expand rapidly, and how owners can prepare their buildings for the next decade of transportation needs. Whether you're an LP, a multifamily operator, or simply curious about electrification, this episode highlights the strategic advantage of early adoption. In this episode, you will hear: Why EV adoption has crossed a national inflection point and what that means for multifamily owners. How 3V Infrastructure finances, installs, and maintains EV chargers with no upfront cost to operators. The economics of EV ownership—including maintenance, fueling costs, and battery modularity. Why Level 2 charging is ideal for long-dwell environments like apartment communities. The role of data, utilization modeling, and EV "rent rolls" in determining charger counts. How electrification, grid demand, and infrastructure investment will shape the next decade of CRE.

Send us a textFrank stops by the show to discuss his solo record, his childhood adventures with his brother and so much more. *****Living Between the Lines is the debut solo LP from Frank Meyer. A long time coming, Meyer's been hinting at it for a while now with Bandcamp exclusive tracks, covers on tribute albums, acoustic solo shows, and his acclaimed collaboration album with Eddie Spaghetti of the Supersuckers. Like the Eddie collab, LBTL is out on Kitten Robot Records. The 11-song album adds touches of blues and soul to Meyer's expected high-energy rock ‘n 'roll, revealing a more mature voice. He is joined for duets by longtime friend and collaborator Lisa Kekaula of the Bellrays on the title track, Runaways icon Cherie Currie on “Piece of Me” and Spaghetti himself on “Partners In Crime.”An award-winning musician, filmmaker and author, Meyer has a track record that covers rock ‘n 'roll, punk, heavy metal, blues, and country. Known for his work with everyone from Rock ‘n 'Roll Hall of Famers James Williamson (Iggy & the Stooges) and Wayne Kramer (MC5) to legendary punk act FEAR, Meyer has carved out a career full of unlikely collaborations, hard work, searing guitar playing, and ace songwriting skills.“It meant a lot to have these particular vocalists join me on my solo debut,” says Meyer. “Lisa and I go way back to my earliest days of the music scene in L.A.. Eddie is also an ld friend and touring buddy, and was a big inspiration in making this album. Cherie saw the Streewalkin' Cheetahs early on and helped us get signed. So all of them are dear to me and have been integral in my career.”As kids, Frank and his brother (actor Breckin Meyer) put on plays and lip-sync concerts for their parents. By age 12, lil 'Frankie was playing guitar, writing songs and recording at Frank Zappa's house with his childhood friends Ahmet and Dweezil. By age 15, he was gigging professionally around the ‘80s Hollywood club scene with his teenage high school band. In the mid-'90s, Meyer formed punk act the Streetwalkin' Cheetahs, who went on to record many acclaimed albums, tour the world and carve out a niche as one of L.A.'s hardest working, hardest rocking bands. The band remains active with new releases and reissues out in stores on Rum Bar Records, Heavy Medication Records, and Ghost Highway Records, plus European and US touring activity.*****If you would like to contact the show about being a guest, please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comUpcoming guests can be found: https://dmneedom.com/upcoming-guest Follow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.

And Moses called all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw ye forth, and take you an animal of the flock according to your families, and kill ye the passover. And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in, the blood that is in the basin, and ye shall touch the lintel and the two posts with the blood that is in the basin; and no one of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning. And Jehovah will pass through to inflict a plague on Egypt; and He shall see the blood upon the lintel, and upon the two posts, and Jehovah will pass over the door, and will not allow the destroyer to come unto your houses to inflict a plague. And ye shall keep this word for a statute to thee and to thy sons forever. And it shall be that when ye shall come unto the land which Jehovah will give you, as He hath spoken, that ye shall keep this service. And it shall be, when your sons shall say unto you, What is this service to you? that ye shall say, This is the sacrifice of the passover to Jehovah, in that He passed over the houses of the sons of Israel in Egypt, when He inflicted a plague on Egypt, and liberated our houses. And the people bent itself, and bowed itself. And the sons of Israel went and they did as Jehovah commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they. Exodus 12:21-28 The Heavenly Marriage Arcana Coelestia 7945… it is common in the Word for a thing to be seemingly repeated; but the first mention relates to the truth which is of the understanding, and the second to the good which is of the will. The reason is that in every detail of the Word there is the heavenly marriage, which is that of good and truth (see n. 683, 793, 801, 2173, 2516, 2712, 4138, 5138, 5502, 6343); and, in the supreme sense, the Divine marriage, which is that of the Divine good in the Lord and of the Divine truth proceeding from Him (n. 3004, 5502, 6179). From this also it can be seen that the Word is most holy. To remain in the house AC 7923 And no one of you shall go out of the door of his house. That this signifies that they shall abide steadfast in good, which must not be regarded from truth, is evident from the signification of “not going out,” as being to abide steadfast; and from the signification of “house,” as being good (n. 2233, 2234, 2559, 3652, 3720, 7833-7835, 7848). From this it is evident that by “no one of you shall go out of the door of his house” is signified that they shall abide steadfast in good. The reason why it signified that good must not be regarded from truth, is because to “abide in the house” denotes to abide in good; but to “go out of the door of the house” denotes to go from good to truth; for good is within, but truth without (n. 7910). (What it is to look from good to truths, see n. 5895, 5897, 7857.) From truth to look to good is to look from what is external to what is internal but from good to look to truth is to look from what is internal to what is external; for, as just said, good is interior, and truth exterior. From good to look to truth is according to order, for all Divine influx is through interiors to exteriors; whereas from truth to look to good is not according to order; and therefore when a man is being regenerated, the order is inverted, and good or charity is regarded in the first place, and truth or faith in the second. The need for self compulsion AC 7914 … the good of innocence, which is the good of love to the Lord, is not received by the man of the spiritual church unless he compels himself; because it can with difficulty be believed by him that the Lord is the only God, and also that His Human is Divine; and therefore as he is not in faith, neither can be in love to Him, consequently not in the good of innocence, unless he compels himself. (That man ought to compel himself, and that when he compels himself it is from freedom, but not when he is compelled, see n. 1937, 1947.) This is signified by “drawing forth,” namely the paschal animal. That to draw it forth involves some secret thing which does not appear in the sense of the letter, is manifest.

fWotD Episode 3129: Appaloosa Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 28 November 2025, is Appaloosa.The Appaloosa is an American horse breed best known for its colorful spotted coat pattern. There is a wide range of body types within the breed, stemming from the influence of multiple breeds of horses throughout its history. Each horse's color pattern is genetically the result of various spotting patterns overlaid on top of one of several recognized base coat colors. The color pattern of the Appaloosa is of interest to those who study equine coat color genetics, as it and several other physical characteristics are linked to the leopard complex mutation (LP). Appaloosas are prone to develop equine recurrent uveitis and congenital stationary night blindness; the latter has been linked to the leopard complex.Artwork depicting prehistoric horses with leopard spotting exists in prehistoric cave paintings in Europe. Images of domesticated horses with leopard spotting patterns appeared in artwork from Ancient Greece and Han dynasty China through the early modern period. In North America, the Nez Perce people of what today is the United States Pacific Northwest developed the original American spotted breed. Settlers once referred to these spotted horses as the "Palouse horse", possibly after the Palouse River, which ran through the heart of Nez Perce country. Gradually, the name evolved into Appaloosa.The Nez Perce lost most of their horses after the Nez Perce War in 1877, and the breed fell into decline for several decades. A small number of dedicated breeders preserved the Appaloosa as a distinct breed until the Appaloosa Horse Club (ApHC) was formed as the breed registry in 1938. The modern breed maintains bloodlines tracing to the foundation bloodstock of the registry; its partially open stud book allows the addition of some Thoroughbred, American Quarter Horse and Arabian blood.Today, the Appaloosa is one of the most popular breeds in the United States; it was named the state horse of Idaho in 1975. It is best known as a stock horse used in a number of western riding disciplines, but is also a versatile breed with representatives seen in many other types of equestrian activity. Appaloosas have been used in many movies; an Appaloosa is a mascot for the Florida State Seminoles. Appaloosa bloodlines have influenced other horse breeds, including the Pony of the Americas, the Nez Perce Horse, and several gaited horse breeds.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:02 UTC on Friday, 28 November 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Appaloosa on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Danielle.
Approaching 85 years old, guitarist Jorma Kaukonen talks about the early '60s onward — from the beginnings of Jefferson Airplane to his current solo career, including his new archival 2-LP live album, Wabash Avenue (out on Record Store Day Black Friday). Wabash Avenue is a special release, highlighting unheard songs at a solo acoustic performance in 1965 (before Kaukonen joined the Jefferson Airplane) at The Offstage, a folk club in San Jose, California. Guest host, longtime Goldmine contributor Lee Zimmerman, interviewed a vibrant Kaukonen about other subjects, too: Woodstock and Summer of Love memories, the essence of Hot Tuna (w/ former Jefferson Airplane member Jack Casady) and the guitar school of the Fur Peace Ranch, started by Kaukonen and his wife, Vanessa.

Arcana Coelestia 1871. I cannot describe how the Lord’s Word appears before angels, but it can be grasped to some extent by people who have seen optical cylinders in museums. These cylinders reflect beautiful images from distorted drawings projected in a circle around them. Although the surrounding drawing appears to have no shape, organization, or pattern but to be simply a confused projection, it presents a lovely picture when focused onto the cylinder. 1 That is how the Lord’s Word is, especially the prophetic part of the Old Testament. Hardly anything can be seen in the literal meaning besides a disorganized jumble; but when it is read by a person on earth (particularly a little boy or girl), it gradually rises up, turning more beautiful and more pleasing as it goes. In the end it presents itself to the Lord as a human figure representing the whole of heaven — not as heaven actually is but as the Lord wishes it to be; in other words, as his likeness. 1. Although one scholar (Potts 1888-1902, under “cylinder”) understands this device to be a kaleidoscope, Swedenborg seems here to be referring to a device called an anamorphoscope, which produces an optical illusion called an anamorphosis. The cylinder is polished (as indicated in similar descriptions in New Jerusalem 260; White Horse 11:4; Spiritual Experiences [Swedenborg 1998-2002] §2164) and acts as a curved mirror; it is set next to a distorted drawing that is composed in such a way that the reflection of the drawing on the surface of the cylinder appears properly proportioned. For examples of anamorphoses from Swedenborg’s time and before, see Leeman and others 1976. (A reflecting cylinder may be seen in plate 53 there.) Further examples, though not of the same historical interest, can be found in McLoughlin Bros. 1979. [SS, LHC] AC 7847. Angelic ideas are of such a nature that natural things bear relation to such things as belong to man. The reason is that the spiritual world or heaven is in the form of a man, and all things of that world, that is, all spiritual things, which are truths and goods, bear relation to this form, as has been shown at the end of many chapters in treating of correspondences. And whereas in angelic ideas natural things become spiritual, so also does a house, which to the angels is the mind of man; the bedchambers and inner rooms being the interiors of the mind; and the windows, the doors, the posts, and the lintels, the exteriors of the mind, which introduce. As angelic ideas are of such a nature, they are also living; and so when the things in the natural world which are dead objects, pass into the spiritual world, they become living objects; for everything spiritual is living, because it proceeds from the Lord. On reciprocity Intercourse of the Soul and the Body 12. [4] Furthermore, unless the understanding could be separately perfected, and the will by means of it, a man would not be a man, but a beast. For without that separation, and without the ascent of the understanding above the will, he would not be able to think, and from thought to speak, but only to express his affection by sounds; neither would he be able to act from reason, but only from instinct; still less would he be able to know the things which are of God, and God by means of them, and thus to be conjoined to Him, and to live to eternity. For a man thinks and wills as from himself, and this as from himself is the reciprocal of conjunction; for there cannot be conjunction without a reciprocal, just as there cannot be conjunction of the active with the passive without reaction. God alone acts, and man suffers himself to be acted on, and he reacts in all appearance as from himself, though interiorly it is from God. Divine Love and Wisdom 49. With respect to God: it is impossible for Him to love others and to be loved reciprocally by others in whom there is anything of infinity, that is, anything of the essence and life of love in itself, or anything of the Divine. For if there were beings having in them anything of infinity, that is, of the essence and life of love in itself, that is, of the Divine, it would not be God loved by others, but God loving Himself; since the Infinite, that is, the Divine, is one only, and if this were in others, Itself would be in them, and would be the love of self Itself; and of that love not the least trace can possibly be in God, since it is wholly opposed to the Divine Essence. Consequently, for this relation to be possible there must be others in whom there is nothing of the Divine in itself.

Welcome back to Transmissions. This week: Steve Von Till, of sludge legends Neurosis, the tribal ambient spin-off Tribes of Neurot, solo albums under this own name, and the psych folk project Harvestman. He runs the independent label, Neurot Recordings. And as if all that isn't enough, he's also a poet, and an educator—when he's not playing music, he's bringing knowledge to the next generation, working as a fourth grade teacher in North Idaho. If you've been listening to Transmissions for awhile, you know that we're hardly dogmatic when it comes to genres, but we don't often feature artists who could be classified as metal. But that's part of what makes Von Till such an interesting guest—his own music certainly qualifies as “heavy,” but it's shot through with influences from very much within the AD canon: krautrock, ambient, folk, haunted country rock. His latest is a solo LP, the piano and synth drenched Alone in a World of Wounds. It is full of songs that, to hear Von Till put it, work as expressions of his soul, his heart, mind, his “earthly being and the whatever unearthly bits…connect with it all.” In addition to his work with Neurosis and Harvestman, this talk focuses in on the connection between humans and their natural surroundings, his work with the indigenous suicide prevention campaign Firekeeper Alliance, and some reflections on how his early punk days made him peers with Green Day and Operation Ivy—not often bands you hear mentioned in relation to Von Till. We are pleased to share this conversation as we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, a time to reflect on our place in relation to each other and to the land itself. We hope you enjoy it. Transmissions is created in partnership with the Talkhouse Podcast Network. We're brought to you by Aquarium Drunkard, an independent music media crew headed by Justin Gage. Over at Aquarium Drunkard, you'll gain access to 20 years of music writing, playlist, essays, mixtapes, radio special, podcasts, videos and more.
In His Wake is the debut release from PINES, a new project from Detroit-born artist Josh Hight, a former member of early 2000s post-punk outfit The Detachment Kit and solo artist under the name Irons. The EP was recorded in East Sussex produced by Richard Norris (The Grid). In His Wake is being released via Semaphore Records on 10” LP vinyl, digital download and streaming services September 5. In His Wake was shaped by grief, disillusionment, and a search for something beyond the visible world. The songs here are intimate and expansive, fusing the weight of lived experience with a sense of mysticism and emotional pull. This is music made from memory, distance, and quiet intensity, possessing a rich sonic depth, blending shoegaze, slow-burn Americana, and dreamlike psychedelia. Special guests include Andy Bell (Ride, Oasis) on guitar, Emmett Kelly (Bonnie “Prince” Billy, The Cairo Gang, The Hard Quartet) on guitar and bass, and vocals from Dottie Cochran of Deary. The title track, “In His Wake,” is a reflection on being the only surviving child in a family touched by loss—haunted by absence but also frustrated by the dullness and complacency of adulthood. “Fifteen” explores a formative relationship marked by imbalance, looking back on it through the lens of maturity, with all its contradictions intact. “Uriel” is a ritual invocation—part hymn, part apocalyptic prayer—calling to the archangel in a time of digital saturation, collapse, and the possibility of transcendence. A professional photographer and director, Hight's creative work lives at the intersection of image, sound, and emotion. His musical vision is is raw, cinematic, and steeped in atmosphere. Richard Norris' first production was Jack The Tab, the seminal acid house album co-created with Genesis P-Orridge of Psychic TV. He went on to work with artists including Joe Strummer, Sun Ra, Robert Fripp, and Dave Ball of Soft Cell as part of The Grid, as well as Erol Alkan in the psychedelic duo Beyond The Wizard's Sleeve. Josh met producer Richard Norris at a Stone Club event in London, where they discovered they lived minutes from each other in Lewes. What began as a collaboration on film soundtracks soon evolved into a deeper creative partnership. The EP was recorded at Norris' Metal Box Studios in Lewes.

Chris Lopez and Paul Shannon sit down with investor and educator Julie Holly for a candid conversation about wins, losses, and leadership as an LP and GP. Julie traces her path from house hacking to syndications, shares the “receive & release” mindset she uses to process setbacks, and explains what changed in her underwriting and operator vetting after a tough year, including one deal where mismanagement led to a total loss. They cover how LPs should share accountability, the exact questions to ask sponsors (who underwrites, how they stress-test, and how they communicate), and why Julie paused new offerings to focus on stewardship and transparency. Key Takeaways Start as an LP to learn the experience end-to-end; early distributions can feel great, but plans must survive rate, insurance, and market shifts “Receive & release”: make space to process losses, own your part, then offload what isn't yours so you can lead and decide clearly Trust and verify: dig into vacancy, taxes, insurance, payroll, and who actually underwrites (in-house vs. outsourced/AI); stress-test more than one way Accountability is shared: GPs must report clearly and often; LPs must understand their risk profile, read docs, and avoid “write first, learn later” FOMO Choose relationships, not just returns: invest with people who answer candidly, welcome hard questions, and are reachable when things get bumpy Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.

Record Store Day Black Friday 2025 is this Friday, November 28th. This week's episode is the second of two special spotlights on a few of the featured titles from the Black Friday List, which is up now at RecordStoreDay.com. This week, we welcome back Talking Heads drummer and co-founder Chris Frantz to unpack Tentative Decisions: Demos & Live a vinyl collection from Rhino Records exclusively for RSD Black Friday featuring a newly discovered demo by pre-Talking Heads group, The Artistics, plus eleven demo and live tracks recorded by the original trio lineup of the band (with Tina Weymouth, Frantz and Byrne) recorded in 1975 and 1976. Chris even teases an upcoming Talking Heads project that will re-unite the group member once again. And staying in a New York groove, Deee-Lite founding member Supa DJ Dmitry Brill is here to celebrate the release of The Very Best Of Deee-Lite, a double LP on de-groovy purple and orange splatter vinyl. Along the way, the Ukrainian born musician shares the funkadelic story of Deee-Lite's early NYC club days, complete with tales of Bootsy Collins, Maceo Parker, Fred Wesley, and Q-Tip, plus a most cherished classic rock album that Dmitry purchased at great expense back in the former Soviet Union. Finally, we mark the passing of Reggae superstar Jimmy Cliff (1944-2025), and Stone Roses/Primal Scream bass player Gary "Mani" Mounfield (1962 -2025) the soul of "Madchester."

Barry Greenfield began his musical ride in 1965 when he was just 15 years old. Over the subsequent decades, Barry has become a greatly appreciated, old-school, singer songwriter, with three number one records, twenty-five plus covers, and life as a touring musician and storyteller. He actually walked away from the music business in the mid-70s saying, “it's not for me,” and yet he remained a dedicated songwriter and performer, releasing twelve LP's while sharing his music with audiences everywhere. Barry's autobiography, My Journey to Blue Sky, was recently published by New Haven Publishing. It covers the intimate details of his professional years, including, standing on the shoulders of various giants that he has known or worked with, like Cher, John Lennon, Larry Carlton, Supertramp, Kenny Rogers, Harry Nilsson, 10cc, and more. Barry's classic album, Blue Sky, released by RCA, has reached its 50th anniversary. And now with his book, Barry reveals the life changing experiences he received while attending the ‘music school' of the real world in those halcyon days of 1963 to 1975. Barry learned everything by listening, watching, and questioning. Please be sure to stick around at the end of the show for a very special treat. Barry has graciously lent us his powerful hit song, “New York is Closed Tonight.,” which we'll play for everyone to enjoy. After 9/11, CNN played “New York is Closed Tonight,” juxtaposed to what was happening to the twin towers.
Hello Friends! After an extended break away from the Fab Five, we return to The Hollies on Mixology with a look at their 1966 album, 'Would You Believe?'. Their first issued in stereo in the UK (almost at the same time), this LP has always had a very curious mix situation, with the stereo being somewhat inventive with it's panning, and the mono being quite muddy for the most part. With this in mind, I dived into this episode hoping to break down why this is, and let me tell you that the answer was somewhat unexpected, but also somewhat creative - if expedient. With a major discovery on our hands here, this episode only further complicates the mono vs stereo debate when it comes to this material, so don't have a Hard Hard Year, let's dig in! Happy Listening, Frederick
Don and Dude continue honoring Casey Kasem with another Classic Casey Countdowns visit, this time to November 25, 1978, when disco, rock, and pop intertwined on the American Top 40. This episode highlights two albums behind that week's Top 10 hits, celebrating the sound of a Thanksgiving spent around radios and record players.Chic – C'est Chic (1978) New York studio pros Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards turned Chic into a precision-groove machine on their second LP, fusing disco, funk, and R&B into sleek, minimal arrangements that still feel luxurious. Driven by the monster hit “Le Freak,” the record balances party-starter anthems with emotionally rich cuts like “I Want Your Love,” showcasing airtight rhythm section work, tasteful strings, and a cool, upscale dancefloor vibe.Foreigner – Double Vision (1978) Fresh off their blockbuster debut, Foreigner sharpened their arena-rock formula on Double Vision, pairing Lou Gramm's powerhouse vocals with Mick Jones's riff-heavy guitar lines and radio-ready hooks. From the punchy opener “Hot Blooded” to the grinding title track and moodier deep cuts, the album captures a band refining its identity through tight songwriting, dramatic dynamics, and a polished yet muscular late 70s rock sound.Dude is Diggin':The Pretty Reckless – Taylor Momsen's Pretty Reckless Christmas (2025): A six-track holiday set where Taylor Momsen blends hard rock crunch with nostalgic seasonal moods, highlighted by a powerful new version of “Where Are You Christmas?”.Various Artists – Saturday Night Fever Original Movie Soundtrack (1977) (vinyl): A landmark disco document packed with Bee Gees smashes and club classics, perfectly channeling the sweaty, cinematic pulse of the late 70s dancefloor.Don is Diggin':Magic Wands – Cascades (2025): Dreamy, guitar-and-synth-driven pop steeped in gothic and new wave textures, full of shimmering atmospheres and mystical, nocturnal imagery.Vince Gill – 50 Years From Home: Secondhand Smoke (2025): Reflective country storytelling that blends personal memories with social themes, delivered in Gill's warm tenor and supported by a cast of Nashville collaborators.Follow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing. “Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars.” – Casey Kasem

Feliks Banel's guests on this LIVE BROADCAST of CASCADE OF HISTORY include Paul McClintock of Whidbey Island, who created many 18th century documents for Ken Burns' "American Revolution" documentary series currently airing on PBS; Mitsy Hunter of Spokane Preservation Advocates on the recent successful grassroots campaign to defeat a city ordinance which would have created a moratorium on historic districts; highlights from a 2021 interview with seasoned journalist (and "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" announcer) Bill Kurtis on his 1971 coverage of the D.B. Cooper skyjacking; and Julie Green Lombardo -whose father Del Green was a member of long-ago Seattle barbershop quartet the Four-Do-Matics - for whom we play a vintage recording by the group on an old LP that she'd never heard before.

Arcana Coelestia 8497 … goodness and truth which flow in from the Lord are joined together and so to speak made the person's own. This is what the joining of heaven, that is, of those in heaven, to the Lord is like. The words ‘as if from what was their own' are used because the good of faith and charity can never be imparted to man or angel to be actually his own, for men and angels are merely recipients, or forms properly adjusted to receive life from the Lord, and so goodness and truth from Him. True life comes from no other source; and since life comes from the Lord it cannot be more than what seems to be a person's own. Those who abide in the Lord however clearly perceive that life flows in, consequently that goodness and truth do so since these are contained in that life. The reason why life seems to be a person's own is that in His Divine Love the Lord wishes to impart and join to a person all that is His, and so far as it can be done He does join it. What is then the person's own, yet is imparted to him by the Lord, is called a heavenly self or proprium. Conjugial Love 444. Man was so created that all which one wills, thinks and does appears to one as if in oneself, and thus from oneself. Without this appearance man would not be man, for one would not be able to receive, to retain and, as it were, to appropriate anything of good and truth or of love and wisdom. From this it follows that without that living appearance, as it were, there would be no conjunction for man with God, and thus no eternal life. But if from this appearance one introduces to oneself the belief that one wills, thinks and from this does good from oneself, and not from the Lord, although in all appearance one does this as if from oneself, one turns good into evil with oneself, and thus makes in oneself the origin of evil. This was the sin of Adam. AC 141. With the spiritual man also his Own has a similar appearance, for although he knows that the Lord is the life of all, and gives wisdom and understanding, and consequently the power to think and to act, yet this knowledge is rather the profession of his lips than the belief of his heart. But the celestial man discerns that the Lord is the life of all and gives the power to think and to act, for he perceives that it is really so. He never desires his Own, nevertheless an Own is given him by the Lord, which is conjoined with all perception of what is good and true, and with all happiness. The angels are in such an Own, and are at the same time in the highest peace and tranquility, for in their Own are those things which are the Lord's, who governs their Own, or them by means of their Own. This Own is the veriest celestial itself, whereas that of the corporeal man is infernal. AC 5664[3] Be it known, however, that it is one thing to know the truths of faith, and quite another to believe them. They who merely know the truths of faith, charge their memory with them just as they do with the facts of any other branch of knowledge. These truths man can procure for himself without such an influx, but they have no life, as is plain from the fact that an evil man, even the worst, can know the truths of faith just as much as an upright and pious man. But as before said with the evil these truths have no life; for when an evil man brings them forth he regards in everyone of them either self-glory or gain; so that it is the love of self and of the world that inflates them and makes a sort of life; but it is such life as there is in hell, which is called spiritual death. Hence it is that when he brings them forth, he brings them forth from the memory, and not from the heart, whereas he who believes the truths of faith brings them forth from the heart at the same time as from the lips; for with him the truths of faith are so deeply rooted in as to have their root in the outer memory, and to grow from there toward what is interior or higher, like fruit-bearing trees; and like trees they deck themselves with leaves, and at last with blossoms, for the sake of the end of bearing fruit. So it is with such a man. [4] He also aims at nothing else through the truths of faith than uses, which are the practices of charity, which to him are the fruits. These are the truths which man cannot procure for himself, even in the smallest degree; but they are gratuitously bestowed on him by the Lord, and this in every moment of his life, nay, if he will believe it, without number in every moment. But as man is of such a nature as to have no perception of their flowing in, for as before said if he had the perception he would resist, because he would believe that he would then lose his own, and with his own his freedom, and with his freedom his delight, and would thus become a thing of nought, it is therefore brought about that man does not know but that he procures truths of himself. This then is what is meant by saying that it will seem as truth procured by them. Moreover, in order that a heavenly own and heavenly freedom may be bestowed on man, he must needs do good as of himself and think what is true as of himself; but when he reflects he should acknowledge that these are from the Lord (see n. 2882, 2883, 2891). Third Round posts are short audio clips taken from Round 3 comments in the online Logopraxis Life Group meetings. The aim is to maintain focus on understanding the Text's application to the inner life while reinforcing key LP principles highlighted in the exchanges.
“Hace cincuenta años se publicaron varios discos que hoy queremos recordar. En aquel 1975, Las Grecas lanzaron su segundo LP y debutaron discográficamente tanto el grupo Triana como el dúo Lole y Manuel. Precisamente, Dolores Montoya y Manuel Molina son los protagonistas de este programa, en el que escuchamos algunos de los momentos más destacados de su histórico álbum Nuevo día, trabajo al que además está dedicado el Festival Miradas Flamencas que se celebra estas semanas en Madrid.

Bruset är rap. Sedann finns det hiphop, men det måste man leta efter. Det säger Houman Sebghati, för hiphopskallar känd från Hässelbys 165-kollektiv och för egna epos som till exempel Reptilernas Planet, Alkemisten och Skuldsaneringen. Ganska nyligen släpptes hans bok På gränsen till ärlighet som är delvis roman, delvis självbiografi och bitvis debattfackla. På plats i DJ 50 Spänn-studion langar Houman fram en skivhög som tar oss från tung New York-hiphop av så-här-ska-det-fan-låta-typ, via pinsam svensk wuöh-öh-öh-pop, vidare till Lill Lindfors-svänget till göteborgsk raggamuffin i toppform och till slut vemodig svensk-amerikansk jazz som på nåt sätt klistrar ihop tidseror och avlägsna platser. I avsnittet försöker vi svara på många frågor, bland annat dessa: • Vad var det som fick 165-kollektivet i Hässelby att börja rappa på svenska? • När började svensk musik svänga? • Hur mycket tid lägger Drake på att trimma sitt skägg? • Är gangsterrappen feminiserad? • Hur skön är Hector Bingerts saxofon? • Vad lyssnar man på när man tröttnat på hiphop? • Vilken låt av Style lyssnar vi helst på? • Varför läser män inte böcker? PS: Om du vill köpa Houmans bok På gränsen till ärlighet så finns den i vanliga bokhandlar, till exempel här. Men du kan också följa Houmans instagram, dra ett DM och köpa både bok och skivor direkt från kreatören själv.

If you've lived your whole life before the First Light, you'd better check out Hozier's latest LP, Unreal Unearth! James & Connor are reviewing the "Unaired" edition of the album, with seven bonus tracks including Too Sweet, his biggest hit since Take Me To Church! This concept album inspired by Dante's Inferno takes us down circle by circle, vice by vice, so seamlessly that you'll forget you're in the middle of the descent. Through moving songs like Francesca, All Things End, Butchered Tongue, and Eat Your Young, Hozier explores our relationship to darkness, power, and human connection through his well-sifted lyrics and unique creative lens.We'll dig into Hozier's Irish roots, from a small hometown to the country's national choir, and discover his rise from starving artist to folk pop sensation. We refamiliarize ourselves with the mythology behind the Divine Comedy, reminisce on the popularity of Take Me To Church, and gear up for Thanksgiving before The Mixtaper brings us his Hoziest facts to date! Twitter stalkers, lead pants, and a well full of digestive biscuits (for the land) await us in Fact Or Spin! Then we'll discuss the whopping 16-track record and its accompanying EPs in their entirety! Will this hellish descent be able to rise above the competition?Let us know which EP songs you think should have made the album! Did we get close on pronouncing "uiscefhuaraithe?" If this podcast felt like Hozier's yell, let us know in the comments and on social media.. and be sure to follow along through the holiday season!

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, host Dave Gebroe talks with the epitome of DIY punk spirit (who can also write a pop hook like the best of ‘em), the great Mark Robinson (of Unrest, Grenadine, Air Miami, Flint Flon, Uncomfortable Police, et al), and together they discuss Billy Joel's entire recorded output with commentary, stories, and star ratings for every release. If you're a long-time listener, then you know that Dave has harbored a long-time hatred of Billy Joel…so why the sudden turnaround in taste? Discograffiti's Mark Robinson Tackles Billy Joel (But Only Metaphorically) Series dissects every last release Billy Joel's ever had a hand in creating. Part 1 tackles his turmoil-ridden ancient history, including early bands The Hassles and Attila, plus his debut LP, Cold Spring Harbor. Here are just a few of the many things that Mark discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Dave's complete revolution in taste from abject hatred of anything Billy Joel-related to discovering to his shock that he actually likes him; How first wife Elizabeth's glue-sniffing brother's crazed antics gave Billy his initial big break in first band The Hassles; How The Hassles metamorphosed into Billy's sole foray into Zeppelin-inspired head-banging with his duo Attila; An overview of his early days struggling with depression, which culminated in Billy attempting suicide twice in a row; How that experience turned his life around and led to his career finally taking off; And an in-depth deep dive on the early Hassles records, plus every song off Attila and his debut Cold Spring Harbor.

Kaat Van Stralen wordt vandaag 25 jaar en bestaat er een betere plaats om dit te vieren dan de Popcast? Kaat heeft haar bassist Faust meegenomen en hij blijkt een soort van wijze buddha met dreads te zijn. We praten over de vele headliners die deze week werden aangekondigd, de zin en onzin van AI en over het feit dat Stop Met Wenen niet op de debuut LP van Kaat staat.
Arcana Coelestia 7850. And they shall eat the flesh. That this signifies the enjoyment of good, is evident from the signification of “to eat,” as being enjoyment (of which just above, n. 7849); and from the signification of “flesh,” as being what is man's own vivified by the Divine Human of the Lord, thus all celestial and spiritual good with man (see n. 3813, 6968). The New Jerusalem and its Heavenly Doctrine 278. Another reason our life seems to be within us is that the principal cause, which is life from the Lord, and the instrumental cause, which is we ourselves as a recipient form, act as a single cause and therefore we as the instrument perceive life as our own 1 : AC 6325. Arcana Coelestia 6325. It is an eternal truth that the Lord rules heaven and earth, and also that no one besides the Lord lives of himself, consequently that everything of life flows in-the good of life from the Lord, and the evil of life from hell. This is the faith of the heavens. When a man is in this faith (and he can be in it when he is in good), then evil cannot be fastened and appropriated to him, because he knows that it is not from himself, but from hell. When a man is in this state, he can then be gifted with peace, for then he will trust solely in the Lord. Neither can peace be given to any others than those who are in this faith from charity; for others continually cast themselves into anxieties and cupidities, whence come disquietudes. Spirits who desire to direct themselves, suppose that this would be to lose their own will, thus their freedom, consequently all delight, thus all life and its sweetness. This they say and suppose, because they do not know how the case really is; for the man who is led by the Lord is in freedom itself, and thus in delight and bliss itself; goods and truths are appropriated to him; there is given him an affection and desire for doing what is good, and then nothing is more delightful to him than to perform uses. There is given him a perception of good, and also a sensation of it; and there is given him intelligence and wisdom; and all these as his own; for he is then a recipient of the Lord's life. It is known in the learned world that the principal cause and the instrumental cause act together as a one: man, being a form recipient of the Lord's life, is an instrumental cause, and the life from the Lord is the principal cause. This life is felt in the instrumental cause as of it, when yet it is not of it. Third Round posts are short audio clips taken from Round 3 comments in the online Logopraxis Life Group meetings. The aim is to maintain focus on understanding the Text's application to the inner life while reinforcing key LP principles highlighted in the exchanges.
Back in the mid-nineties, a group emerged from St. Louis, later moving to Chicago, where they'd go on to make some of the most beguiling and unique music of the time. They were 90 Day Men. In this three-part series from the Secretly Society Podcast, Tim Kinsella, a fellow Chicagoan and friend of the band, guides us through conversations with the members and other folks who were involved in the scenes and movements that they operated in. Over four albums and a few EPs, the band's sound developed into elaborate, experimental, baroque songs, influenced by the world around them and delving back into prog, sixties art rock, and beyond. 90 Day Men were not ahead of their time, they were of a different world entirely; their discography, and a handful of previously unheard songs, were compiled into a five-LP set by Numero Group in 2023. In this episode, Tim speaks to the band about the musical world from which they were born, and how they came to be.

When you see someone talking to themself in public, your first thought might be that person is a little crazy and maybe has mental health issues. But what if it's actually one of the most powerful forms of self-leadership? In today's episode, I'll show you how using your own voice can immediately transform your mental and emotional state, elevate your focus, and help you lead yourself through any challenge. I'll share a story about a close friend who inspired me with his daily "self-talk" practice, and how I came to realize he wasn't acting crazy—he was actually being very intentional. Over time, I discovered that speaking affirmations and prayers out loud with intensity, not just thinking them silently, has a far more profound impact on my mental, emotional state, and physical nervous system. Lastly, I'll walk you through a simple 14-day challenge that you can track and rate the impact it's having on you. Because the truth is, silence helps you observe your mind, but your voice can lead it. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why talking to yourself out loud isn't crazy, it's conscious self-leadership. How spoken affirmations and prayers can instantly shift your emotions. The science behind distanced self-talk and how it reprograms your identity. The difference that silence and speaking out loud has on your Miracle Morning. A 14-day challenge to strengthen your focus, faith, and mindset.

Did you know there's more than $40 trillion sitting in U.S. retirement accounts — most of which could be invested in real estate? In this episode, Michael Blank chats with Karen Hall, Founder of uDirect IRA and author of The BiggerPockets Guide to Self-Directed IRA Investing, to break down the rules, tax implications, and best practices that allow investors to use their retirement funds to participate in real estate syndications. Whether you're a GP raising capital or an LP investing passively, this conversation will help you unlock one of the biggest capital sources in the world.Key Takeaways: There is $40 trillion in retirement accounts — a huge capital pool most investors overlook. Self-directed IRAs can invest in syndications, rentals, notes, crypto, precious metals, and more. The IRS has prohibited transaction rules — keep investments arm's length to avoid penalties. UBIT/UDFI taxes can apply when leverage is involved — tax advisors are essential. A solo 401(k) can reduce some debt-related tax exposure. Recent laws may allow employer 401(k)s to include alternative investment funds, opening the door wider. Always ask investors: “Do you have retirement funds?” — because most won't think of it themselves.Connect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)Schedule a Free Strategy Session with Michael's Team of AdvisorsExplore Michael's Mentoring ProgramJoin the Nighthawk Equity Investor ClubReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsSyndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael Blank For full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session498/

John Casmon interviews Travis Watts, a long-time Best Ever contributor, full-time LP, and author of Passive Investor Tips. They dig into where we are in the multifamily market cycle, why the last three-plus years have felt so painful for LPs, and why Travis believes we're entering a true recovery phase that could mirror the opportunity of buying in 2010. Travis shares how investing consistently from 2015 to today—even with about 30% of his portfolio “compromised”—still leaves him well ahead of where he'd be if he'd stayed on the sidelines. He and John also break down operator selection, capital calls, fixed vs. floating debt, and how to align your investment strategy with your life stage and risk tolerance.

Pascal Wagner interviews Evan Polaski, digging into what 18 years across retail and multifamily have taught him about raising capital through multiple market cycles. Evan shares what it was really like trying to raise an institutional fund heading into the 2008 crisis, how the “denominator effect” froze commitments, and why that experience still shapes his view of risk today. He contrasts institutional and retail LP behavior, explains why he's gravitated back to necessity-based retail, and calls out the dangers of marketers-turned-operators who chase AUM instead of disciplined deals. Evan also walks through how he evaluates sponsors as an LP himself, what “conservative underwriting” should actually mean, and the specific questions passive investors need to ask about performance versus the original pro forma.

What if aging didn't have to mean slowing down or fading out—but instead became the most vibrant and meaningful chapter of your life? Too many people see 50 and beyond as a slow decline, but the truth is, the way you think, move, and care for your body can completely redefine how you experience your later years. Today, I'm joined by my friend and co-author of The Miracle Morning After 50: A Proven Path to Joy, Vitality, and Purpose for Aging Adults, Dwayne J. Clark. Dwayne is the CEO of Aegis Living and a longevity expert who's spent 40 years studying the daily habits and mindset of over 80,000 people—many who've lived well into their 90s and beyond. In our conversation, Dwayne shares the powerful lessons he's learned from interviewing dozens of centenarians, how inflammation is a significant factor of aging, and why longevity is as much about attitude and perspective as it is about science. We also explore how to adapt your Miracle Morning practices to thrive after 50. We talked about how movement, meditation, and mindset can dramatically improve your overall wealth and wellbeing and simple habits to ensure your best years are ahead of you, not in the rearview.
