Podcasts about MIC

In this episode of Behind the Numbers, host Dave Bookbinder sits down with Nicole Grinnell - founder of Bosun Solutions and Mic'd Up Booking - to break down the exact financial and operational mechanics of scaling a small business. They pull back the curtain on payroll optimization, calculating the true opportunity cost of doing your own admin work, and why high-performing executive assistants are revenue multipliers, not expenses. Nicole walks through the spreadsheet arbitrage of fractional staffing, explaining how shifting from fixed W2 payroll overhead to variable fractional support insulates profit margins during market volatility (a model battle-tested during COVID-19). They dig deep into the hidden financial cost of a bad hire, the exact vetting processes needed to protect cash flow, and why Net Profit is the ultimate metric every scaling founder must track. Plus, Nicole outlines how to turn podcast guesting into a low-effort, high-ROI B2B sales engine that drastically shortens sales cycles.

Welcome to class! Today, Brandon and Jesse head back to the cannabis kitchen to create a custom combo they're calling Sweet Berry Lemonade.The recipe starts with two very different flowers: the dark, funky, berry-forward Halle Berry by Betty and the bright, citrusy Super Lemon G from Dragonfly Brand Zero. After experimenting with the proportions, the guys land on a 50/50 blend that delivers the best of both worlds: an alert mind, a relaxed body, easy conversation, and plenty of flavor.Along the way, they explore how each flower contributes to the experience, why cannabinoid and terpene profiles can matter more than THC percentage alone, and how changing a blend's ratio can completely change its effects. The conversation also wanders through mindful consumption, vaporizing versus smoking joints, gaming, creativity, and why the right cannabis combo can make a social activity even more enjoyable.The final verdict? Half Halle Berry and half Super Lemon G produced a sweet, citrusy, berry-lemonade flavor with an elevated mood, gentle physical relaxation, creative energy, and a clear enough head to enjoy the moment.Have you created a cannabis combo that surprised you—or one nobody else should ever try? Tell us what you mixed and how it turned out.Cannabis affects everyone differently.

Fr. David Gunter, MIC, reflects on Jesus withdrawing by boat to pray amid chaos and violence. Christ shows us that, when we face fear, loneliness, confusion, or uncertainty, we should seek quiet time with God rather than allow fear to control us.This message is especially important today, when many people are anxious about prophecies, testimonies, and events in the world. Jesus does not want us to live in fear. He calls us to prayer and asks us to seek the Holy Spirit's gift of discernment; the Spirit of Truth, so that we may recognize and follow the will of the Father.We should invite the Holy Spirit into our hearts, remain close to the Blessed Mother, and be cautious of movements that ignore the Holy Spirit or place themselves above God's will. Through prayer, discernment, and preparation of heart, we become ready to receive the fire of Christ's love: “I came to cast fire upon the earth.”Readings for August 3rd. 2026: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/080326.cfm© 2026 Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception.

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with the final Motivate Your Monday episode and your host, Diane Wyzga. As you know, the ending of every story holds the beginning of a new one. I'm retiring 60 Seconds and Motivate Your Monday episodes. Instead of ending these changes are evolving to Begin Anew. I launched my podcast, Stories From Women Who Walk in April 2020 as a platform for conversations with women who were walking their lives until their lives were flipped upside down by something unexpected, how they met the challenges, and changed to becoming stronger, even more confident women. I loved every single moment of listening stories out of my guests! COVID flipped our lives upside down, too. We were no longer commuting to work over long distances or in cars. Who would have the time to listen to a 30 or 40-minute conversation? What to do? Pivot to 60 Seconds. No one was offering this format. Turned out that I was really good at distilling topics, ideas and stories into soundbytes to inform, illuminate, delight, and comfort my listeners. At the same time I created a Listener Location Shout-out to kick off each episode to acknowledge and thank you for listening. How did I know where you were listening? The Simplecast platform provides a global map with yellow dots that light up the villages, towns and cities where your feet touch the ground all around the world. Each shout-out included a URL linked to the location so that other listeners could “armchair travel” to that place. Imagine how much I learned about my global audience. Some 1,330 episodes and close to 250,000 plays later it's time to do something different. But what? Running like a river beneath the surface of the lived experience moments of our lives is a deeper, truer one waiting to be acknowledged. How do I acknowledge that deeper truth? What will I hear when I let my Life speak? Where will it lead me next so that I can make the transitions I seek while inviting you to come along with me on the journey? I promise you this: the voice you have come to know and trust for over 6 plus years on the airwaves, along with the stories, insights, questions and prompts that speak to each of us as if to say, “What! You, too? I thought I was the only one.” [C.S.Lewis] I'd like to focus my creative efforts on producing “Diane on Mic” short-form episodes—maybe 7 minutes or so of spoken word—for Wednesdays on Whidbey and Story Prompt Friday.

Mic and Brigitte return with a special live episode taped at the CreepyCon convention in Knoxville, TN. They talk horror movies and have special guests Brandon Smith from the All Heart Gunner Foundation, Jeremy Selby from Scratch-N-Slash Media, and Justin Sulham of SLASHville Studios.

Human trafficking violates the sanctity, dignity, and fundamental rights of the human person. Pope Benedict XVI called it “a crime against humanity.” Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains how it's the business of stealing someone's freedom for profit, and freedom is the most defining characteristic of the human person.Become a Marian Helper!Discover more about the Catholic faith on Divine Mercy Plus! 

In today's homily, Fr. Tyler Mentzer, MIC, described the miracle of the multiplication of the loaves as a powerful sign of Jesus' desire to nourish His people. When Jesus fed thousands with only a small amount of bread, He showed that His love and generosity have no limits. This miracle points beyond physical hunger to the deeper hunger of the human soul.Fr. Tyler also connected the multiplication of the loaves with Christ's sacrifice on the Cross and His Resurrection. Jesus endured a brutal death, rose victoriously, and now gives the fruits of His sacrifice to millions of people throughout the world. Just as the bread was multiplied for the crowd, the one sacrifice of Christ continues to nourish humanity through every celebration of the Eucharist.The homily presents the Eucharist as the supreme manifestation of God's love. Above and beyond, Jesus does not give Himself only to a few people or only for one moment. He gives Himself continually and abundantly to all who come to Him in faith. In the Eucharist, Jesus always gives more than we expect: His presence, His grace, His healing, and His very life.Readings for August 2nd. 2026: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/080226.cfm© 2026 Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception.

This Week: There's a lot going on… and it's a hot mess.  Tuskegee University, one of the pillars of HBCUs in America, announces a new dress code that prevents students from wearing things like duy-rags, bonnets, and bedroom shoes in classes, dining halls, and other academic settings. The administration says it's part of the school's “responsibility to prepare its students for professional environments after graduation.” A small school district in Western NY state, serving an Indian reservation community, aborts a plan to use life-like, AI powered robots in the classroom, built by a company best known for making sex robots. Sadly, you read that correctly. And, Arizona State University announces a new major focused on helping people become social media influencers. Is it just an institutional money grab, or a legit path to a career in a massive industry? Manuel and Jeff discuss!  All of the Above sends our condolences to the family, friends, and loved ones of noted Denver educator and co-host of the Too Dope Teachers and Mic podcast, Kevin Adams.  Check out this beautiful profile of Kevin in NEA Today, and his first appearance with us on All of the Above back in 2020.

In this inspiring reflection, Fr. Anthony Gramlich, MIC reminds us that rejection is a part of every human life. We may reject ourselves, reject others, or experience rejection from those around us. Beneath these experiences often lie emotional wounds that God invites us to acknowledge and heal.The homily challenges us to consider how the fear of rejection can keep us from embracing the truth. While the truth can be difficult and even offensive to those who resist it, Christ calls us to live in the truth with courage, humility, and love.Fr. Anthony also emphasizes the importance of repentance. When we sincerely repent of our sins and receive God's mercy in this life, we can face God's judgment with hope, trusting in His forgiveness and infinite love.May this reflection encourage you to embrace the truth, trust in God's mercy, and never allow the fear of rejection to keep you from following Christ."Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." – John 8:32 ★ Support this podcast ★

Creativity through the lens of a Real Estate Broker, Radio Host and Author "How we live our lives is an extension of our creativity."For more than twenty years, Lisa Parda has helped people buy, sell, and reimagine properties in New Hampshire. As the Owner of RealtyScape Brokerage, LLC, she doesn't just work in residential real estate — she's also an income-producing, value-add agent with experience fixing up and revitalizing commercial and multifamily properties. That passion for creating spaces that serve people and communities threads through all her work.Today, she's just as likely to be found behind a microphone as she is at a closing table. As co-host of Lisa and Robyn on the Mic, a live weekly radio show, Lisa has spent the past two years hosting two-hour conversations that meander the way real life does. Listeners tune in for honesty, laughter, and the kind of exchanges that feel like pulling up a chair at the kitchen table.Food has become her latest way of exploring connection. Her forthcoming cookbook, My Love Language Is Food (Fall 2025), isn't about flawless recipes — it's about survival, joy, and the small rituals that keep people going. Lisa draws from her own seasons of struggle: long work hours, the ups and downs of body image, and the lessons of using food both as comfort and as medicine. She's candid about nights when dinner comes from a box, but she also knows the pride of making one dish exactly the way you like it.At 53, Lisa is choosing to let her real estate career take a smaller footprint so she can make space for projects that leave her energized — conversations on radio, a cookbook rooted in lived experience, and opportunities to speak and travel. Her story is about pivoting in midlife without burning down the past, and about building sturdier foundations — whether in homes, meals, or communities.What drives Lisa is simple: connection. Whether through a property, a meal, or a two-hour conversation, she believes in meeting people where they are, without gloss. As a podcast guest, she brings humor, candor, and the kind of energy that makes audiences lean in and feel seen.https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-parda-a0125532b/https://www.youtube.com/@LisaandRobynOnthemichttps://www.instagram.com/lisaandrobynonthemic/#https://starsatnightpublishing.com/Send us Fan Mail

This Sesh starts with an idea for building better connections and ends up going somewhere much deeper: ego, self-awareness, faith, service, judgment, and the difference between talking about love and actually living it.We get into why people prejudge each other, how those snap judgments create friction, and what happens when you stop trying to win every interaction. Sometimes growth is simply catching yourself before you respond and asking, “Am I helping right now, or am I just trying to be right?”We also talk about creating spaces where people can connect without all the usual labels, how cannabis helped teach us patience, why self-awareness isn't about “fixing” who you are, and what it looks like to put your beliefs into practice through honesty, kindness, and service.Because being right doesn't mean much if you lose the person in front of you.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

In today's homily, Fr. Mark Baron, MIC reflected on God's attributes: He is good, merciful, powerful, truthful, and sovereign. God's sovereignty reminds us that He is the highest authority over all creation and salvation history, providing a firm foundation for our spiritual and emotional lives.Using the image of the potter and the clay, Fr. Mark encouraged us to trust God's loving plan. We are called to humbly accept how God has created us and allow Him to shape our lives according to His wisdom. When we surrender to His will, we find peace and purpose; when we resist, our lives can become chaotic.He concluded by asking us to reflect: Am I allowing God, the Divine Potter, to shape my life with His love, wisdom, and mercy?Readings for July 30th. 2026: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/073026.cfm© 2026 Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception.

WHAT IFWhat if the business idea you keep talking yourself out of is the one that changes everything? In 2013, Jessica Rhodes was a brand-new mom who just wanted to stay home with her baby. She had no business experience, no sales background, and a $35,000 salary she needed to replace. She started by clicking links on her dad's website every Saturday morning. Twelve years later, she is the CEO of the world's first podcast booking agency, with over 30,000 interviews booked and $13 million in career revenue. She did not set out to build a $13 million company. She set out to stay home. The rest followed.SUMMARY & GUEST INTROIf you have been sitting on an idea that feels too small, too unproven, or too outside the norm to take seriously, Jessica Rhodes is the case study you need to hear. She is the founder and CEO of Interview Connections, the world's first and leading podcast booking agency. She started it from her living room as a stay-at-home mom with her father as her first client, in a niche that did not yet exist. Today, Interview Connections has booked over 30,000 podcast interviews and generated $13 million in career revenue. She is also the author of Interview Connections: How to Rock the Podcast From Both Sides of the Mic, and the creator of Monetize the Mic, a program that teaches entrepreneurs how to turn podcast guesting into a real revenue strategy - not just a PR move. In this episode, she breaks down exactly how she got there, and gives every woman listening a practical roadmap for using podcast guesting to build her brand, her authority, and her business.INSIDE THE EPISODEShe Just Wanted to Stay Home. Jessica had no big ambitions when she started. She wanted to be a stay-at-home mom and replace her $35,000 salary. She started by clicking links on her father's website. That mindset - start with your why, not your goal - is the thing that made everything else possible.The Step Back That Was Actually a Slingshot. She left a six-year nonprofit career where she was running her own office to become a virtual assistant. It felt like a demotion. It turned out to be the smartest move she ever made. Jessica breaks down why sometimes the most significant growth starts with swallowing your pride and doing the humble work first.She Invented the Industry. In 2013, podcast booking agencies did not exist. Jessica did not know that was a problem to solve - she just started doing the work for her dad, realized it was something other people needed, and built a company around it. This is what spotting an opportunity actually looks like from the inside.Why Every Woman in Corporate Needs a Personal Brand. You do not need to own a business to benefit from podcast guesting. Jessica shares the story of a client who built a side hustle brand through podcast appearances - and her boss heard her and said: 'Oh my God, that's you.' Being on podcasts is a visibility strategy, a networking strategy, and a career advancement strategy all at once.The Podcast Pitch That Goes Straight to the Delete Bucket. Jessica books podcasts for a living and also hosts her own show. She shares exactly what makes a pitch land and what gets it deleted immediately - including the one AI mistake that is tanking pitches right now.How to Monetize the Mic. Podcast guesting is not a PR strategy. It is a revenue strategy - if you use it correctly. Jessica walks through the full framework: why, messaging, storytelling, call to action, and consistency. She explains why going quiet for even a few months can send your entire pipeline into decline.RESOURCES & LINKSInterview Connections: https://interviewconnections.com/Monetize the Mic: https://interviewconnections.com/get-started/Free Podcast Guesting Masterclass: https://interviewconnections.com/masterclass-2026/Jessica Rhodes on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessica-rhodes-interviewconnections/ ERICA'S RESOURCES & LINKSStart small with me inside HER Jumpstart:https://her-collective.mn.co/plans/1985289?bundle_token=60b2c61d62213cdbd16d437cdc0e4204&utm_source=manual

Send us Fan MailBefore you blame the market, look at how your homes show up online. Chad Davies - founder of Davies Imaging Group (DIG), serving builders doing 500+ units a year across 28 markets - joins Anya Chrisanthon fresh off the Jeff Shore Sales and Marketing Leadership Summit, where his team captured the entire event from behind the camera.The view from the Summit Every conversation - on stage and at the bar - came back to the same theme: stop negotiating. Selling homes is no longer a price battle. Builders have cut as much as they can, and the differentiator now is how you capture buyer attention.The DIG story Chad photographed his first $2 million home at 17. Sixteen years later, DIG is a specialized team - photographers who only photograph, dedicated editors in Guadalajara ripping through post-production, virtual staging artists, and a separate video production discipline. Why? Because one person can't carry the whole weight, and the friction in builder photography lives at the front and back end: scheduling, communication, and turnaround time.What 28 markets reveal Some regions are ripping, others are slow - and the trends are shifting. California, which invented the twilight photography craze, now wants daytime shots. Lifestyle and amenity video is surging while standalone model video fades. And in competitive markets like Texas, builders are suddenly finding photography budget - because when you can't compete on price, location, or product, presentation is the only lever left.The spec home rant If your home exists, it needs real professional photos - not a rendering, not construction team phone pics. And if it's not selling within a month, stage the pictures. Chad's team is seeing homes that sat for a year sell in weeks after virtual staging. Buyers aren't buying a shell - they're buying a new lifestyle, and you can't show them that with an empty room. Your job as a marketer is to remove the imagination, not demand it.The virtual staging surprise The biggest fans of virtual staging aren't marketing teams - they're sales teams. When a stale listing gets staged, it renews the sales team's excitement to sell it. If you want to empower your salespeople, stage the sitting inventory.Where AI fits AI-generated video is a variation of a photo, not a replacement for video production. Use it to fill social channels and supplement your media strategy - but it's an "and," not an "or."The biggest untapped opportunity in builder content Mic up your construction team.

In this episode, I'm taking you behind the music to uncover the incredible story of Fleetwood Mac's legendary album Rumours. It's an album that has sold more than 40 million copies, won Album of the Year, and continues to captivate listeners nearly 50 years after its release—but its creation was anything but smooth. I'll explore how divorces, breakups, and personal heartbreak nearly tore the band apart while somehow inspiring one of the greatest albums in rock history. We'll dive into the stories behind iconic songs like "Dreams," "Go Your Own Way," "The Chain," and "Don't Stop," uncover fascinating behind-the-scenes moments from the recording sessions, and talk about why Rumours still resonates with music fans of every generation. Whether you've loved this album for decades or you're discovering it for the first time, join me as we revisit the chaos, creativity, and timeless music that turned Fleetwood Mac's most difficult chapter into a masterpiece..RUMOURS ALBUM SONGS MENTIONED…Second Hand NewsDreamsNever Going Back AgainDon't StopGo Your Own WaySongbirdThe ChainYou Make Loving FunGold Dust WomanOh DaddyI Don't Want to Know OTHER FLEETWOOD MAC SONGS MENTIONED… RhiannonSay You Love MeOver My HeadLandslideWhat did you think of this episode?

WHAT IFWhat if the business idea you keep talking yourself out of is the one that changes everything? In 2013, Jessica Rhodes was a brand-new mom who just wanted to stay home with her baby. She had no business experience, no sales background, and a $35,000 salary she needed to replace. She started by clicking links on her dad's website every Saturday morning. Twelve years later, she is the CEO of the world's first podcast booking agency, with over 30,000 interviews booked and $13 million in career revenue. She did not set out to build a $13 million company. She set out to stay home. The rest followed.SUMMARY & GUEST INTROIf you have been sitting on an idea that feels too small, too unproven, or too outside the norm to take seriously, Jessica Rhodes is the case study you need to hear. She is the founder and CEO of Interview Connections, the world's first and leading podcast booking agency. She started it from her living room as a stay-at-home mom with her father as her first client, in a niche that did not yet exist. Today, Interview Connections has booked over 30,000 podcast interviews and generated $13 million in career revenue. She is also the author of Interview Connections: How to Rock the Podcast From Both Sides of the Mic, and the creator of Monetize the Mic, a program that teaches entrepreneurs how to turn podcast guesting into a real revenue strategy - not just a PR move. In this episode, she breaks down exactly how she got there, and gives every woman listening a practical roadmap for using podcast guesting to build her brand, her authority, and her business.INSIDE THE EPISODEShe Just Wanted to Stay Home. Jessica had no big ambitions when she started. She wanted to be a stay-at-home mom and replace her $35,000 salary. She started by clicking links on her father's website. That mindset - start with your why, not your goal - is the thing that made everything else possible.The Step Back That Was Actually a Slingshot. She left a six-year nonprofit career where she was running her own office to become a virtual assistant. It felt like a demotion. It turned out to be the smartest move she ever made. Jessica breaks down why sometimes the most significant growth starts with swallowing your pride and doing the humble work first.She Invented the Industry. In 2013, podcast booking agencies did not exist. Jessica did not know that was a problem to solve - she just started doing the work for her dad, realized it was something other people needed, and built a company around it. This is what spotting an opportunity actually looks like from the inside.Why Every Woman in Corporate Needs a Personal Brand. You do not need to own a business to benefit from podcast guesting. Jessica shares the story of a client who built a side hustle brand through podcast appearances - and her boss heard her and said: 'Oh my God, that's you.' Being on podcasts is a visibility strategy, a networking strategy, and a career advancement strategy all at once.The Podcast Pitch That Goes Straight to the Delete Bucket. Jessica books podcasts for a living and also hosts her own show. She shares exactly what makes a pitch land and what gets it deleted immediately - including the one AI mistake that is tanking pitches right now.How to Monetize the Mic. Podcast guesting is not a PR strategy. It is a revenue strategy - if you use it correctly. Jessica walks through the full framework: why, messaging, storytelling, call to action, and consistency. She explains why going quiet for even a few months can send your entire pipeline into decline.RESOURCES & LINKSInterview Connections: https://interviewconnections.com/Monetize the Mic: https://interviewconnections.com/get-started/Free Podcast Guesting Masterclass: https://interviewconnections.com/masterclass-2026/Jessica Rhodes on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessica-rhodes-interviewconnections/ ERICA'S RESOURCES & LINKSStart small with me inside HER Jumpstart:https://her-collective.mn.co/plans/1985289?bundle_token=60b2c61d62213cdbd16d437cdc0e4204&utm_source=manual

A man came in from three hours of surfing and asked his partner if she was angry at him. She said no. Why would I be angry? You love surfing. He only asked because the woman he dated before her used to yell at him every single time he went.That story stopped Ky cold, and it is the heart of this conversation.A lot of us were trained to read somebody needing space as the beginning of the end. Your partner goes quiet. They want a night alone. And your brain has already written the breakup speech.Simone Milasas is an author and a relationship facilitator from Australia. She co-wrote Relationship. Are You Sure You Want One?, wrote Joy of Business and Getting Out of Debt Joyfully, and hosts The Choice, Change & Action Podcast. She has spent years in rooms full of people asking her how to fix their relationships, and her answer is almost never the one they showed up for.Her position is that relationships do not fail from bad communication. They fail from needs, expectations, and projections nobody ever said out loud.Ky and Simone get into the five elements of intimacy, trust, honor, allowance, vulnerability and gratitude, and why you have to give all five to yourself before you can hand them to anyone else. They talk about the myth of "the one" and how it keeps people stuck. A concept she teaches called creationship. Why she keeps a second bathroom on purpose. And the money conversation she used to book a restaurant table for four to have.The line that keeps sitting with Ky: when she needs an hour alone, it is not against him, it is for her.Heads up, there is some language in this one.MORE FROM SIMONE MILASASHer podcast, The Choice, Change & Action Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/za/podcast/the-choice-change-action-podcast/id1512950259Her website:https://www.simonemilasas.com/aboutWANT MORE?Everything lives at TheVibeWithKy.com.

This Week: A superintendent in Massachusetts has put out a fascinating take on a revision to the ubiquitous Bloom's Taxonomy, the helpful tool which has defined orders of thinking for decades in education. In the age of AI, he claims, the hierarchical nature of Bloom's no longer reflects the more complex arc of thinking students will do in a world where humans think with AI. It's an interesting take, and solidly sidesteps all of the most perilous ramifications of the rush to bring AI into the classroom.  Plus, the confederates in charge of the federal government made it official this week. The US Dept of Education will no longer use “disparate impact” as criteria for holding state, districts, or schools accountable for compliance with the Title XI of the Civil RIghts Act of 1964, effectively gutting the landmark legislation. Now, short of having a smoking gun, or video evidence of officials spewing epithets, it will be virtually impossible for plaintiffs to seek federal relief from systemically racist practices in America's schools. Manuel and Jeff discuss.  All of the Above sends our condolences to the family, friends, and loved ones of noted Denver educator and co-host of the Too Dope Teachers and Mic podcast, Kevin Adams.  Check out this beautiful profile of Kevin in NEA Today, and his first appearance with us on All of the Above back in 2020.

If hiding in a bunker, subsisting on stored supplies, has some significant problems, what about staying on the surface and growing more food? Mic, Brian, and Jeff discuss some of the challenges wrapped up in the grow-your-own model. For one, it's a lot more work than a lot of people realize. Many a neophyte homesteader have given up on the lifestyle because it was more work than it was idyllic. Group efforts are good — the distribution of labor, efficiencies of specialization, etc. – but many of those fail for depending upon a single charismatic leader, or for organizing as a commune. Mic asks the guys what they would do differently. Support this podcast! Ad revenue is pitifully small. Mic spends hours each week creating content for your listening pleasure.

What do tipping over a motorcycle, childhood fistfights, martial arts, negative comments, social media algorithms, and industrial-strength zip ties have in common?Honestly, more than they probably should.This week, we start with a bruised ego after a motorcycle goes down twice before the ride even really begins. That turns into a conversation about the ridiculous standards we hold ourselves to, the old scripts telling us we're not good enough, and why mastery doesn't mean you'll never fuck up.From there, we get into growing up around violence, being bullied, learning to fight, and the difference between being capable of violence and constantly looking for it. We talk about muscle memory, pressure testing, protecting the people you love, and how real mastery can eventually teach you to avoid the fight altogether.We also get into why random people on the internet don't deserve your energy, how to train your social media algorithm instead of letting it train you, and why sometimes the healthiest response is simply, “This probably isn't the show for you.”Then, naturally, we finish with motorcycles, broken car parts, cowboy engineering, questionable safety inspections, and a heartfelt appreciation for one of humanity's greatest inventions: the zip tie.Catch you Tuesday.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

As our culture continues to redefine truth, where should Catholics stand? In this powerful homily, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC explains the Catholic Church's teaching on communism, socialism, human dignity, private property, and the role of the State in light of the Gospel. Drawing from Sacred Scripture, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and the teachings of Popes Leo XIII and Pius XI, he reminds us that our ultimate hope and freedom come from God; not from any political ideology. Fr. Chris also addresses today's cultural challenges, the importance of defending objective moral truth, and why the Church teaches that authentic freedom, justice, and human dignity can only flourish when God remains at the heart of society.This homily is not about partisan politics; it is about the salvation of souls, the protection of religious freedom, and remaining faithful to Jesus Christ in a world that increasingly rejects His truth.Readings for July 23rd. 2026:https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/072326.cfm© 2026 Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception.

Secure attachment isn't a feeling you suddenly arrive at.It's something you build.It's discovering that you can be overwhelmed, uncertain, emotional, imperfect... and still let yourself lean on other people.In this week's After the Mic, we're reflecting on what happened during our annual A Different D Word retreat—not because we want you to wish you had been there, but because we want you to know what's possible.We talk about what it was like to be held by a room full of women while also holding space for each other.

On the Feast of St. Mary Magdalene, Fr. Tyler Mentzer, MIC, reflects on one of the greatest truths of the Gospel: Jesus always makes the first move to love us. No matter how far we have fallen or how often we fail, Christ never stops pursuing us with His infinite mercy.St. Mary Magdalene's life is a powerful witness that no sin is greater than God's love. Tradition has long portrayed her as a woman deeply wounded by sin and disordered desires before her conversion. In many ways, she represents every person who wrestles with weakness, brokenness, and the attraction of sin.Today's homily reminds us that God never defines us by our past. He sees who we are capable of becoming through His grace. Like St. Mary Magdalene, we are invited to respond to His love, trust in His mercy, and allow Him to transform our lives.Our past does not define us; our encounter with Christ does.Readings for July 22nd 2026: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/071626.cfm ★ Support this podcast ★
