Every productivity guru will tell you the same thing: set realistic goals, or you're setting yourself up to fail. Jia Jiang did the opposite. He told the internet he'd sell 10,000 copies of his new book in 100 days, sold about 3,000, and is now going around calling it one of the best things he's ever done. He's not being delusional about it either. He'll tell you straight up that part of him wishes he'd hit the number. He just thinks failing loudly beats succeeding quietly, which might explain why only 9% of people who make a New Year's resolution actually stick to it. Most of us are setting goals to feel good for five minutes, not because we've figured out how to actually get there. In this episode, I sit down with Jia Jiang, the entrepreneur and speaker behind 100 Days of Rejection, a YouTube experiment that became a TED Talk with more than 10 million views. We talk about his new book, Easy Discipline, and how he turns huge, terrifying goals into something he can actually control day to day. If you have ever downgraded a goal so you wouldn't have to feel bad about missing it, Jia is about to make you rethink that entirely. Jia and I discuss: Why Jia deliberately sets goals so ambitious he is likely to miss them, and why a public near miss beats a comfortable target The one action goal: how to turn a big, uncontrollable ambition into a daily input you can fully control The inspiration index, the two numbers Jia tracks on every project, and why you need both the outcome and the input The Mover's Manual, and how changing his physical environment lets Jia get three to ten times more done in an afternoon Reverse AI: what happened when Jia started deliberately training himself the way AI models are trained The letter he wrote to Steven Bartlett after being turned down for Diary of a CEO, and why he published it anyway Key quotes "I'd rather fail my ambition publicly than letting it die inside privately." "When you are already rejected, you have nothing to lose. When you have nothing to lose, you have nothing to fear."

Vincenzo is an expert in optimizing and scaling brands on Amazon. He is the CEO of e-commerce, where they have helped more than 1000 local, national and international brands. Sell more on Amazon globally. E-commerce is a full service Amazon consultancy providing tactical execution support and strategic consulting services for Amazon sellers and vendors focused on mid to large size brands.

So with that introduction, welcome to the show Vincenzo.Vincenzo 00:00:46 Thank you. Josh, it's a pleasure and thank you for having me on Vincenzo.Josh 00:00:49 I'm super curious to dive into like the influencer marketing in the blogs, like how are you reaching out to these influencers and how are you Negotiating, you know, payment for these because a lot of influencers, it's like you have to pay me a thousand bucks just for me to post it, and then it will be on my story for 24 hours, and then it's gone.Josh 00:01:12 Right? And you're like, wow, I've got to make a lot of money. I've got to make a lot of sales. Yeah, in those 24 hours to make it worth it. So tell me about, you know, a how you're finding these influencers and bloggers, and then B, what type of payment structure are you coming up with.Vincenzo 00:01:29 Sure. So the first tip and this would be for YouTube. One thing that my team does, and of course the only downside of this is that it's very manual work. So it's going to be time consuming if you don't want to use a platform, but still it's an option to do it. So what you will do is you go to YouTube and let's say you want to do vitamin C, right? So you're gonna put all is the name of the product. And then then you put Amazon. So it could be vitamin C, Amazon or top vitamin C Amazon. And the reason why you put Amazon is because at the end of the day, YouTube is a search engine.Vincenzo 00:01:59 And that is gonna matches most of the time with videos that say top ten vitamin C on Amazon, or even if it's not title, it's gonna match it with the link of the influencer. Because if these guys do influence, they have an Amazon influencer account. The links that they put in the description have the Amazon world on it. Therefore, the search engine is going to match me with those videos. And that's the first filtering. I already know. Which ones are the guys that have been working with Amazon brands in the past. They know how the whole ecosystem works, and it's easier than working with a person that, you know, they just do blogs and they don't even have an idea about what is selling on Amazon. So I want to make sure they speak the same language. That's the first thing. The second thing is when it comes to payment terms. So these are different ways you can do it. So the first way of doing it is a matching the Amazon Commission as I mentioned.Vincenzo 00:02:50 So for example if they do 3% or 5% for Amazon with double, so we give 610% to them. Another option that we do is to write them matching the the commission. We might do just a flat fee, right? Maybe initially, when you know that relationship still doesn't exist with influence, it would do a flat fee, which I know sometimes it can be heavy, as you mentioned. But again, there there are many ways for you to, you know, analyze the, the actual YouTube channel. There are tools that you put the, the hashtag and it gives you like the history, the views, engagement and so on. And that can give you like a good idea about how good this influencer is. And based on that, if this guy asks you for 1000, but then you see that the average likes for videos like two likes, you see that that traffic is fake. So that's a red flag. And the third option, which is this is the most difficult to get. But if you get this, I would say this one is the best way.Vincenzo 00:03:46 It's basically you you transform this person into an ambassador, right. So an ambassador means that basically they become like the face of your product, and they basically talk about your product and pretty much every single video. Like it could be a banner at the beginning or you start sponsoring ...

Vacuuming shouldn't be the task that wrecks your whole pool service route, but for a lot of pool pros it's the biggest hidden time sink. We walk through the fastest way to vacuum a pool based on real-world service conditions, from dusty pools that demand deeper cleanup to neighborhoods where suction side cleaners handle most of the daily dirt. We also talk about a simple but powerful move for your service agreement: “vacuum when necessary,” and how that one line can change expectations, protect your time, and still deliver a clean, professional result.We get specific about methods. Manual vacuuming with a hose to the skimmer is still the most thorough option, but it's also the slowest and easiest to bog down with clogs from leaves and acorns. If your accounts already have an automatic pool cleaner, spot vacuuming becomes the faster play and we explain how to do it using the existing cleaner hoses, plus the drawbacks like reduced suction and hoses popping off. From there, we move into dedicated pool vacuum systems like the Bottom Feeder, Hammerhead, Riptide, and plug-in alternatives like the Vac Daddy, including what actually happens when you rely on vacuum bags to catch dirt.Fine dirt is where most “fast” vacuuming falls apart, so we break down micron bag choices (60, 75, 100 and beyond), why a pool can look good and then show dirt again two hours later, and how a cartridge filter assembly can vacuum to a much finer level for that polished finish. We also call out popular “shortcuts” like brushing everything to the deep end or main drain and why they usually fail in practice. If you want faster cleanings without sacrificing quality, hit play, then subscribe, share this with a pool tech friend, and leave a review so more pros can find the show.We break down the fastest ways to vacuum a pool without leaving behind fine dirt or creating callbacks on a busy pool service route. We compare manual vacuuming, spot vacuuming with cleaner hoses, and pro vacuum systems so you can choose the right method for your service area, staffing, and customer expectations. • using “vacuum when necessary” in a service agreement to reduce wasted time • why customers equate vacuuming with visible work • why manual vacuum hose to skimmer is effective but slow • spot vacuuming by converting automatic cleaner hoses • when it makes sense to invest in Bottom Feeder, Hammerhead, Riptide, Vac Daddy • choosing micron bags and why fine dirt returns after vacuuming • how a cartridge filter assembly captures finer dirt • why brushing to the deep end or main drain does not save time • recommending more reliable “bulletproof” automatic cleaners for full coverage Join the pool guy coaching program.

"They're really worried that radiation is going to be painful. So they come in for that first day of treatment very anxious. With our patients with brain cancer, we're using the masks on the table, and those masks are very tight and hold their heads very, very still. So they'll be very worried about being claustrophobic. We may start out the first day or two with a little bit of [lorazepam]. And they'll come to me and they'll say, 'This really hasn't been as bad as I thought it was going to be,'" ONS member Catherine McCluskey, BSN, RN, OCN®, ROCN™, radiation oncology staff nurse at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist in Winston-Salem, NC, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, who was the manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS at the time of the recording, during a conversation about radiation side effects in central nervous system (CNS) cancers.

Highlights From This Episode "With primary tumors—glioblastomas, astrocytoma, all of those types of cancerous primary CNS tumors, the tumors are not very well-defined. They have little tentacles that kind of go out, so doing something like Gamma Knife, which is very precise, is not as effective as an external beam because the external beam will deliver radiation to all those little tentacles that are out there in the brain. And with Gamma Knife, you really can't effectively do that." TS 2:34 "When we're doing radiation to the brain, fortunately there aren't that many acute toxicities involved. Sometimes they'll have some mild dermatitis. Usually, it's not very significant. They, like everyone else who gets radiation, will have fatigue. Usually once we get to the end of the second week of radiation, into the third week for our patients with primary CNS tumors—the hair loss—they'll start to notice hair loss just in the treatment area. But those are typical, the things that we've seen most. Sometimes we'll have patients who will experience some nausea, maybe a few headaches, but really the acute toxicities are not severe typically with our patients with brain tumors." TS 8:30 "[For] the fatigue, I tell patients to just listen to their bodies. We don't want them to be sedentary, and we want them to go out and continue living their lives. But I do warn them that the fatigue is pretty much common to all patients receiving radiation at various degrees, depending on the patient. I just tell them to do what they feel like doing, and then when they're tired to rest, and if they find themselves having a nap in the afternoon, that's okay." TS 13:51 "What I find with these patients in particular is that a lot of times, their first symptoms related to any type of cancer are CNS symptoms from brain metastasis. Our patients with lung cancer or melanoma—they come in through the emergency room for altered mental status or seizures or something like that. They find a mass in their brain, and then they find a mass on their lung, or they find masses everywhere. Typically, they want to treat the brain masses first before they start them on any kind of systemic treatment. And so, they'll come to us, and they're in shock. Everything's happened very quickly. They haven't had a chance to really catch their breath. They're overwhelmed. And so I try to make sure they understand that everyone that they see here is part of their team and is with them through this journey and they're not alone." TS 25:36 "A couple of years ago, ONS put out an email asking for people to volunteer to do a delineation study about the feasibility of doing a radiation oncology certified nursing exam. And I, just on a whim, responded to that email. It's not something I've ever done before, and thinking that I would not be put on the team. … And I thought, 'I don't have enough experience, I don't know what I'm doing, and they won't choose me.' And lo and behold, they put me on this role delineation study. … I have met so many incredible nurses with all kinds of experience. I've learned so much. It has opened up a lot of things for me and it's been really exciting, so all I can do is say take advantage of those opportunities when they come. Don't think that you don't know enough, because you know more than you think you do." TS 32:38

Tim Shea is the founder and CEO of LatticeWork Insights, where he has spent a decade helping DTC and retail brands untangle data spread across dozens of disconnected platforms. Before that, he built a 25 year career across software engineering, data, and advertising, including years selling data solutions into major media agencies.Most brands have data trapped in Meta, Google, TikTok, Shopify, Amazon, QuickBooks, Salesforce, and Klaviyo, and stitching it together every week eats up expensive leadership time. Tim argues this manual reporting cycle is a hidden cost most founders never account for.The conversation covers when a brand is actually ready to invest in analytics, why LTV and CAC are stories rather than single numbers, and why he tells clients to fund analytics the same way they fund ad spend, expecting a real return. Tim also breaks down where AI genuinely helps data teams and where it creates expensive slop instead.Listeners walk away with a clearer framework for knowing when their reporting problem is actually a decision-making problem, and what it costs to keep ignoring it.Website: https://expanio.com/Podcast website: https://expanio.com/commerce-untold-podcast/Eitan Koter's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eitankoter/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CommerceUntoldGuest: Tim Shea, Founder and CEO, Latticework InsightsTim Shea's LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/sheaninesevenMilked Media: https://latticeworkinsights.com/Key Takeaways:Manual reporting across 10-30 disconnected platforms quietly costs brands far more than the software itselfLTV and CAC are not single numbers, they're stories shaped by cohort, channel, and buying behaviorAnalytics should be funded and measured like ad spend, with an expected return above one dollar per dollar spentThe biggest unlock often comes from getting a company to agree on one true north metric, not adding more dashboardsAI is useful in the hands of people who already know how to architect a solution, and dangerous in the hands of people who don'tThe right time to invest in data infrastructure is after product-market fit, not before itChapters: [00:11] Introduction and meeting Tim Shea [00:37] Getting thrown out of a sales pitch and the origin of LatticeWork Insights [03:00] Listening to customer pain over pitching product [04:25] The real cost of data spread across 10-30 platforms [05:03] Manual reporting and the hidden cost to leadership time [08:58] Blending data analytics with intuition [09:32] LatticeWork's process for a new client engagement [13:14] When brands should NOT reach out, and when they should [16:36] Common implementation challenges and getting teams aligned [18:57] Why analytics should be funded like an ad spend [21:44] Where AI actually helps, and where it creates slop [26:40] What brands get wrong when working with agencies [29:49] Tim's ideal customer [31:13] How to find LatticeWork Insights [31:58] Closing thoughts

As astrology draws curiosity as both a spiritual practice and a lens for self-understanding. Its symbolic language of image can speak meaningfully to our modern linear life.In this conversation, we visit with Gregory Done we explore the relationship between fate and free will, and how inherited ancestral patterns shape our character, our challenges, and our sense of purpose.We also discuss the difference between astrology as dialogue versus fortune telling, the nature of "ghosts" as unresolved generational trauma, and the deeper role of inner nature as a freedom untouched by fate.Listen in for a discussion on ancestry, symbol, and resolution, and what it means to work toward wholeness within the currents of one's own life.

Manual testing never died. IoT is the proof. In this episode, Joe Colantonio talks with Oleksii Cherkashyn, a QA team lead, automation engineer, and IoT testing specialist who built a complete test architecture from scratch across hardware, firmware, mobile, web, and API. IoT breaks the usual automation playbook. You are not testing a shopping cart. You are connecting a real microcontroller, flashing a sketch, validating that a physical command produced the right change in a dashboard widget, and then doing the same thing again through the REST API and the mobile app. No marketplace framework covers that, so Oleksii built his own. You'll learn: Why manual QA remains essential in IoT and which cases can never be automated How Oleksii built a custom Node.js library to simulate up to 50,000 device connections for performance testing without buying the hardware Why he chose WebDriverIO over Playwright and the mobile automation reason behind it How he uses WebDriverIO MCP and cloud coding agents every day to create and repair tests The hard truth about dependent test chains and where AI agents still hallucinate How to handle time based scenarios like sleep modes, daily triggers, and delayed notifications Static versus dynamic provisioning, and how to test OTA firmware updates What to do first if your company hands you an IoT device and you have never tested hardware If you work in test automation and you want a look at the layer of testing that AI is not coming for, this one is for you.

The Examiner's Guide and National Supervision Policy Manual (NSPM) govern how NCUA examinations work. In this episode, Mark Treichel, Todd Miller, and Steve Farrar explain what credit unions need to know about both documents. Key takeaways: • The NSPM standardized examination procedures after years of regional inconsistency • The Examiner's Guide is de-emphasized but its reference sections remain useful • Credit unions should review NSPM chapters on District Management, Programs, and Regulatory Waivers • Administrative action responses and appeals typically require action within 30 days • Some Examiner's Guide chapters referenced by the NSPM aren't publicly available This episode is essential listening for credit unions preparing for examinations or navigating enforcement actions.

Dr. Karen Litzy speaks with Hannah Kim, CEO and co-founder of Pocket, about the hidden operational burden that happens before a patient ever reaches the clinic door. They break down why front office teams get stretched too thin, how insurance verification and scheduling create revenue leakage, and what it looks like when a clinic automates the full pre-arrival workflow without losing the human touch. In this episode: · Karen frames the episode around the pre-arrival patient journey and why it matters for physical therapy clinics. · Hannah Kim explains Pocket's focus on automating intake, insurance verification, scheduling, and patient communications. · The biggest front office inefficiency is overload: one team is often handling phone calls, insurance verification, scheduling, onboarding, and patient greetings. · Insurance verification is more complex than checking a portal - clinics often need to call payers, confirm authorization requirements, and verify visit limits. · Manual verification can take hours and includes documentation, EMR entry, calculating patient responsibility, and explaining benefits to patients. · Growth exposes weak systems: workflows that work for one or two locations often break when a clinic scales. · Slow or incomplete pre-arrival responses can cause patients to book elsewhere, creating missed visits and revenue leakage. · Pocket aims to own the full process from start to finish, including extracting patient info from the EMR, verifying benefits, making calls when needed, creating documentation, and uploading it back into the EMR. · Beyond insurance, Pocket also supports intake, onboarding, case creation, first-visit scheduling, and automated patient communications. · Hannah shares that the best transformations free front office staff to spend more time with patients, reduce burnout, and support clinic growth without adding staff.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) is joined by Manish Goregaokar, a senior software engineer and member of the Rust security response team, to discuss what LLMs do to the cost side of running a sophisticated con. They walk through a scam built for programmers: a plausible company, a few rounds of interviews, and an NDA signed via "sign in with email" that quietly hands an attacker the identity account everything else resets against. A version of it hit at least five people in the Rust community within days of Manish publishing on the subject, and Patrick describes being targeted himself by someone posing as a Bloomberg reporter who wanted him on a Zoom call with a codec problem. They also cover money mules and the three stages of laundering, the $25 million Hong Kong transfer authorized on a fully deepfaked video call, and why the only durable individual defense is refusing to trust any communication you did not initiate.–Full transcript available here: https://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/what-llms-do-to-the-economics-of-scams-with-manish-goregaokar/ –Presenting Sponsors: Mercury, MongoDB & GranolaComplex Systems is presented by Mercury—radically better banking for founders.

Jared is joined by Tim Cook who is Senior Lecturer in Physiotherapy at the University of Chichester, Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner in the NHS, and doctoral researcher to discuss their new paper with Prof. Jeremy Lewis in the Journal of Manual & Manipulative Therapy: "Rethinking strength testing in rotator cuff-related shoulder pain: a clinical tradition that lacks muscle." Tim explains what pushed him to question routine strength testing in busy clinical practice, despite guidelines recommending it, and the pair dig into whether weakness is a cause of shoulder pain, a consequence of it, or something else altogether. They look at what subacromial anaesthetic injection studies reveal about pain versus true force output, and Tim reframes the classic "weak and painful shoulder" as the "flexible but painful shoulder," drawing parallels to other oversimplified clinical narratives like posture and core stability. They also make the case for when strength testing can still earn its keep; patient engagement, expectation violation, building confidence, and sporting or return-to-performance populations such as ACL limb symmetry index, before turning to Goodhart's Law and the risk of chasing the test rather than the outcome, and why isolated isometric tests may not translate to real-world, endurance-based shoulder tasks. Tim closes out with an update on his PhD: a reliability RCT on strength and pain-free assessment currently in press, and an upcoming scoping review on the proposed mechanisms of exercise for RCRSP.

In this sermon, we explore 1 Thessalonians 2:1–13 and reflect on Paul's "Manual for Ministry." The message focuses on moving faith beyond words and into action, reminding us that the Gospel is a 24/7 posture, not just a Sunday tradition. firsthouston.church
Episode Notes Jacob flees from Laban, and Laban tries to get him to change his mind by using every tactic out of the Manipulators Manual that he can think of. Each week, we share engaging, expository messages and verse-by-verse Bible teaching from Lead Pastor David Sorn and other trusted guest speakers. These messages are rooted in Scripture and designed to help you understand God's Word in context and live it out with clarity and purpose. Whether you're exploring faith or growing in it, we pray they inspire and equip you to follow Jesus.
Hi, it's Neil Cowmeadow here with episode 437 of The Tutor Podcast, the Monday morning shot of uncommon sense for anyone who wants start, grow and love their own tutoring, teaching and coaching business – the same way I love mine. As usual I've been rummaging through the ragbag of my mind and my notebooks, the ones I've made during all the courses, seminars, classes, webinars, conferences, field trips, research projects, books, trade press, videos and a ton of other stuff I've done over the years… Boiling it down to get at the good bits so I can give them to you in a no-nonsense, No BS kind of way... So I'm squeezing a little more juice out of it for myself, and –at the same time - sharing it with you here in the hope that it helps you have as much fun at work and in life as I do. And – of course - I'm not just here to talk, I'm listening - so if you have any ideas that might be worth sharing via the show – get in touch info@neilcowmeadow.com or on X where I am @TutorPodcast, and maybe you can help me to learn something new, something better? Because I'm smart enough to realise that I don't have all the answers, and if I rely on my own tiny, pea-sized brain to solve all of my problems…. Well..... If you're good with that, let's crack on... As you know – I'm a big fan of doing things differently – maybe I'm just contrary, odd, “unusual” or some other fancy-pants name for being open to being wrong. I'd settle for “contrarian”, because I've often found that doing the exact opposite of what miserable people do makes me happy, doing the opposite of what poor people do has made me money, and doing the opposite of what unsuccessful people do has made me successful… in my own terms. What that looks like is a very busy life which is mostly spent with people I love, doing things I enjoy… Years ago I worked with a couple of guys who were quite depressed. Being my usual, ridiculously optimistic self, I bounced around and tried to lift them up a bit – this was long before I got into NLP, coaching and hypnosis – before – even – I started my teaching business… ancient history! I used to watch what they did, how they moved when they were having good or bad days, how they eld themselves and the way they spoke… I was a nosey bugger, even back ten. You see I had an idea – not a very bright one, but hang in there with me, because I was young and uneducated then… The idea was that if I could see what they did, maybe I'd figure out why they were depressed… My brilliant idea worked!! I experimented with moving, standing, sitting, talking just like my two colleagues – and I got depressed!! Genius. After a while my little old brain decided it was bored with being a bit depressed and suggested (in one of my unguarded moments) that I should do the opposite of what I was doing – INVERT THE PROCESS that produced depression and start to study happy people, successful people… I did, and it worked… I got happier. Double-genius! They say that success leaves clues – well, so does failure. If you can figure out what it is that someone does that causes them to fail, thwarts their ambitions and steals their dreams, you can write a Failure Manual, based on your research. Likewise, figure out what successful people do, happy people do, healthy people do… and you can write a Success Manual, based on That research. The process is INVERSION – doing the opposite of normal. I mention this because it popped up during a mentoring session a couple of weeks ago: the mentee was frustrated by her progress and had begun to blame herself for the current state of things… I'm all for accountability, but not if it turns inward to self-blame and self hate. I stopped her, mis-flow. Handed her a pen and paper, put on my grown-up face and asked her to write me a failure guide for her business. “a what?” she asked “A Failure Guide” I said. “Write down everything you are currently doing in life and business that is guaranteeing that you can't get what you want. You have ten minutes – GO!” “Go!” I repeated… Her head went down and the pen started skipping across the page. Five minutes, and the pen was still dancing. Ten minutes, and the page was full, along with half of a second page… I let the clock run… When her head came up, she was smiling. “That's really clever” she said… “all I have to do now is stop doing everything on this list, right?” “Yep. Start with just one thing that you can eliminate, today, and stop doing it. You can start with a small thing, to get used to the idea, or head straight for one of the bigger ones. The important thing is that you get comfortable not doing it, then move on to the next thing on the list.” Whenever I've done this with students or mentees, they all knew what they were doing that was holding them back, and the results have been very positive. Somehow, writing it all down really held up their nonsense for scrutiny. They got honest witht ehmselves and made changes. How cool is that? If you're stuck, frustrated, blocked, thwarted and/or frustrated, take a little time to draw up your own failure manual… When you do this, you only have to do the opposite of what's on the list to experience radically different outcomes. Nice… Let me know when you've had a bash at this and how you got on – I'd love to hear from you. Drop me an email to info@neilcowmeadow.com and if you have any comments, questions or problems, get in touch - again it's info@neilcowmeadow.com or on X where I am @The Tutor Podcast Let's leave it there for today – I hope this show has got you thinking and has been some help to you and that you'll join me next time on The Tutor Podcast for more No-BS tips and ideas of how to Start, Grow and Love YOUR Tutoring Business – just like I love mine. Till then, remember that Life is largely what you make it, so make it good. Be excellent to yourselves - stay healthy, stay useful, and Have a Fabulous Day!

Tony and Josh sit down to revisit **Episode 43** (August 2012), the very first episode Josh appeared on the old XJ Talk Show. They play classic clips, react in real time, and laugh at how much has changed (including how young they both sounded). You'll hear the original voicemail from Bob in Moab about XJ unibody reinforcement, Josh's epic transfer-case seal leak story ("pucker moment" on the freeway), the Tom Woods Slip Yoke Eliminator discussion, and the interview with Dan from the 4x4 Podcast — including Tony's heartfelt thanks for Dan's military service and the special flag & certificate Dan later sent. Then the Zoom Roundtable jumps in with practical advice on **buying a used TJ**: frame rust (the real deal-breaker), 4.0 vs. 4-cylinder, soft tops, LJ vs. TJ pricing, and why a solid frame still makes the TJ a fantastic platform in 2026. Josh also delivers one of his classic "You You" rants on slow drivers, and they float the idea of a bonus DIY spill-kit segment (YouTube/Patreon exclusive). **Key Highlights** - Josh's first-ever appearance (Ep. 43) remastered & reacted to - Classic voicemail + transfer-case horror story - Tom Woods SYE talk & why you still need one - Dan (4x4 Podcast) interview + military tribute - Roundtable: What to check before buying a used TJ - Spill kits, soft tops, and real-world build advice - Josh's heated slow-driver rant - Call for video voicemails **Timestamps** (approximate) 00:00:00 Returning and Remastering Early Episodes 00:00:28 Launching First Clip and Audio Apology 00:03:04 Introducing Listener Voicemail Question 00:03:35 Voicemail on Jeep Cherokee Unibody Handling 00:04:53 Reflecting on Audio Changes and 'whatnot' 00:05:57 Using AI to Track Recurring Phrases 00:07:45 Transfer Case Leak and Highway Drama 00:12:32 Slip Yoke Eliminator Pricing and Core Refunds 00:15:52 Encouraging Listeners to Explore Episode 43 00:17:25 Discussing Slip Yoke Eliminator and Spill Kit Idea 00:18:38 Planning Bonus Segment on DIY Spill Kits 00:20:10 Designing Compact Spill Kits for Jeep Adventures 00:22:17 Announcing Bonus Content and Possible Patreon Segment 00:23:11 Dan Interview and Spill Kit Plans 00:30:13 Roundtable Intro: Evaluating Used TJ Purchases 00:35:29 Debating LJ vs TJ: Year, Rust, and Water Issues 00:36:39 Checking Frame Rust in Used TJs 00:36:55 Inspecting Frames: Tools and Owner Communication 00:37:53 Rust Prevention Methods and Their Importance 00:38:53 Four‑Cylinder vs Six‑Cylinder Engines and Failures 00:41:24 Manual vs Automatic Transmissions in Jeep Engines 00:42:01 Dan's Move and Four‑Cylinder Preference for TJs 00:43:40 Assessing TJ Viability and Soft‑Top Options 00:46:55 Driving TJ on Highway: Speed Limits and Performance 00:47:55 Evaluating Four‑Cylinder Engine Limitations 00:48:39 Inline‑Six Torque Advantages Over V‑Engines 00:52:34 Inline‑Six Torque Monster and Its Impact 00:54:14 Soft‑Top Choices: Cost vs Performance 00:54:59 Temperature Considerations and Frame Integrity 00:55:59 Market Prices and Value Comparison of LJs, TJs, JKs 00:59:11 First Impressions of LJ and Scrambler Models 01:00:38 Scrambler Introduction and Design Features 01:01:04 Gladiator Preference and Desert‑Runner Concepts 01:01:40 Law Enforcement and Emergency Use of Jeeps 01:05:38 Municipal Acquisition of Surplus Jeeps 01:06:22 Concluding TJ Advice and Encouraging Buyers 01:12:18 Nikki G's Quick Fire Random Remarks 01:13:03 Aggressive Driving Rant and Speed Limit Commentary 01:16:24 Episode Wrap‑Up and Call for Support 01:18:03 Encouraging Video Voicemails and Community Interaction 01:20:13 Bonus Content Disclaimer and Legal Notice **Call to Action** Got a build question, a part you're staring at in the store, or just want to show us your Jeep?

Si alguna vez has pensado que vivir en una furgoneta en pleno verano es un sueño idílico, hoy vengo a explicarte por qué, en realidad, puede ser una auténtica pesadilla. En este episodio de Viajando Simple, te comparto cómo intento sobrevivir a Barcelona en pleno julio.

What if breast cancer risk is not determined only by your genes or family history? In this episode, Dr. Taz sits down with double board-certified breast cancer surgeon and lifestyle medicine physician Dr. Kristi Funk to discuss why breast cancer is becoming more common, especially among younger women, and what women can do to better understand and potentially reduce their risk.Dr. Funk explains why 95% of women diagnosed with breast cancer do not have a BRCA mutation and why 87% do not have a first-degree relative with the disease. Together, Dr. Taz and Dr. Funk explore how food, alcohol, exercise, body weight, stress, inflammation, environmental toxins, sleep, and hormone therapy may influence breast health.They also break down some of the most confusing questions surrounding breast cancer screening and treatment. Do mammograms cause cancer? Is ultrasound a good alternative? When should women begin breast exams? Are some cases of stage zero breast cancer being overtreated? And how much does menopause hormone therapy actually increase breast cancer risk?Breast cancer screening is important, but screening and prevention are not the same thing. Understanding your individual risk factors can help you have better conversations with your doctor and make more informed decisions about your health.If you are navigating cancer treatment or recovery, concerned about inflammation, or want personalized support for your hormones and nutrition, explore related Hol+ care options here:Cancer Support:https://holplus.co/services/cancer-support/Inflammation:https://holplus.co/conditions/inflammation/Hormone Balancing:https://holplus.co/services/hormone-balancing/About Dr. Kristi Funk:Dr. Kristi Funk is a double board-certified breast cancer surgeon, lifestyle medicine physician, bestselling author, and international speaker.
