Could Wall Street be dramatically underestimating how much the world's biggest tech companies will spend on AI infrastructure? Why are stocks like SanDisk and ASML soaring, and are we witnessing the early stages of a semiconductor supercycle? Where are professional investors finding opportunities beyond Singapore's blue chips, and what does DBS see in Centurion? And what can an AI prediction for the World Cup teach us about investing, probability and spotting opportunities before the crowd does?

Quick SummaryIn this candid solo episode, Kelsey Reidel breaks down four mindset shifts she's observed over nearly a decade in business — distinctions that separate entrepreneurs who stay stuck from those who keep growing. Inspired by a morning hike and a Marco Polo conversation with two long-time entrepreneur friends, Kelsey shares real scenarios, personal stories, and honest reflections on what it actually takes to build a sustainable business.In This EpisodeWhy "junior" vs. "experienced" has nothing to do with how long you've been in businessThe real purpose of your first event, launch, or marketing experiment (hint: it's not profit)Why experienced entrepreneurs still slide into DMs — and why you should tooHow to turn every "no" into a source of intelligence rather than a source of shameThe emotional regulation strategies that keep seasoned entrepreneurs from spiraling when things go sidewaysKey TakeawaysYour first event is a research project, not a revenue event. Kelsey grew her events from 10 women in a free coffee shop to 80 women at a sold-out, fully sponsored venue — one small step at a time. Start with three people if you have to.The unscalable work is where the business actually gets built. No matter how big your email list, DMs, coffee chats, and personal follow-ups still move the needle. The most successful entrepreneurs never stop doing this work."No" means "not yet" — treat it like data. Every objection tells you something your messaging isn't addressing. Get curious instead of shutting down.One hard week isn't a business crisis. The experienced entrepreneur has systems to process difficult events without letting them derail the entire plan.You are your business's biggest cheerleader. The moment you start to believe it's not working, your revenue reflects it. Protect your confidence fiercely.Memorable Quotes"Hosting your first event is never about profiting on day one. It's about brand-building, visibility, relationship-building, and market research — all rolled into one.""The experienced entrepreneur never outgrows the unscalable stuff. They just get more intentional about it.""When people say no, it usually means 'not yet,' or 'I don't have the information I need.' Get curious — don't shut down."Resources MentionedKelsey's Website: KelseyReidl.comKelsey's Instagram: @KelseyReidlChicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin Jr. & John Archambault — Kelsey's go-to reminder that it's A to B, not A to ZMarco Polo app — Kelsey's favourite tool for voice-note conversations with business friendsRain or Shine event in Prince Edward County — July 17th (details on Kelsey's Instagram)About the HostKelsey Reidl is an entrepreneur, fractional CMO, and host of Rain or Shine (formerly Visionary Life).

It's 1937 in China. Japan has invaded China some years prior and the Chinese people are under a ruthless Japaneses occupation. This story is about when people get fed the fuck up and rise against their oppressors.While most historians agree that WWII started with the invasion of Poland, some historians will say this is an even earlier catalyst for the war--and it all took place at the Lugou Bridge, most commonly known as the Marco Polo Bridge (although that guy had nothing to do with the bridge besides being awestruck and writing about it in his journal...) This must be some bridge and some "incident," right?!For episode 120, KT is taking us to China in 1937 with the event that started the Second Sino-Japanese War.~~~~~*Episode 4: Hatori HonzoEpisode 93: Yi Sun-Sin, the Korean admiralGEICO Marco Polo ad~~~~~*The Socials and Patreon!Patreon-- The Best Buds Club!

L'origine storica e il significato dell'espressione "perdere la Trebisonda", legata all'antica città portuale sul Mar Nero, crocevia di commerci fra Europa, Medio Oriente e Asia. Un viaggio fra navigazione medievale, metafore cognitive e disorientamento umano, per capire come un porto leggendario sia diventato simbolo di confusione e perdita di controllo. Dalla Via della Seta alle neuroscienze, passando per Marco Polo e le recenti scoperte archeologiche a Trabzon. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
In late December, the Christmas season in Venice is in full flow. Mass bells peal out in a backstreet next to the excellent Marco Polo bookshop in the Dorsoduro district, with occasional passing footsteps ringing out into the crisp evening air.Recorded in December 2025 by Cities and Memory.
I have decided to pepper the summer with podcast episodes of the incredible women that are in my phone, that inspire, amuse and reinforce my faith daily that women are brilliant, and are absolutely gonna be alright. You see, my phone is filled with Marco Polo groups of women that have done Safe Inside (my 6 week somatic coaching container) and Safe in the Shadow (my 6 week somatic group coaching container, only available to those that have done the first one), sharing their lives, their thoughts, their most transformative latest song, their favorite noise cancelling headphones, and their empathy, their wisdom, and their precious lives, with each other. It is truly magical, what happens when you smoosh values-aligned women together, give them some shared somatic healing and a container to connect, and you just see what ancient engrained instincts come forward in their cars after drop off, at their office desks, and in the stolen moments they can find with each other. Corey and I talk about her story parenting a spicy strong-willed sweetie pie and how that was her catalyst into this level of healing, how her dynamic with this child and all of her children has shifted, and how she has settled into "realness" in her home, for everyone that lives there, absolutely including her. You'll love her and this convo. Safe Inside for the Summer starts June 9th! Link in my bio. XOXO

Peter Mauch explains that in 1937, the Marco Polo Bridge incident sparked conflict between Japan and China. While Tokyo sought de-escalation, the Kwantung Army, including Tojo, pushed for escalation and conquest. Chiang Kai-shek's refusal to surrender drew the Japanese military into a "quicksand" interior, creating an inescapable and draining quagmire for the army. (11/16)2943

Giulio Noccesi by Ethan James Green Giulio Noccesi (b. 1996, Florence, Italy) is a painter based in Turin, Italy. He has participated in group exhibitions at Minor Gallery, Copenhagen, DK (2025); Monti8, Rome, IT (2024); Candysnake Gallery, Milan, IT (2024); and D Contemporary Gallery, London, UK (2023). He received a degree in Printmaking from Fine Arts Academy, Florence in 2018. “In Maurilia, the traveler is invited to visit the city and, at the same time, to examine some old postcards that show it as it used to be: the same identical square with a hen in the place of the bus station, a bandstand in place of the overpass, two young ladies with white parasols in the place of the munitions factory. If the traveler does not wish to disappoint the inhabitants, he must praise the postcard city and prefer it to the present one…” – Italo Calvino In Italo Calvino's novel Invisible Cities, Marco Polo recounts his explorations along the Silk Road to the emperor Kublai Khan, each chapter detailing its own city. Calvino's non-linear, combinatory prose asks us to think beyond the borders that separate cities, presenting metaphysical themes that are specific to each place described, yet which permeate the text as a whole. We are implored to consider the relationship between history and memory; above all, we must consider how ideas take shape across chapters to form a composite aesthetic experience. The paintings on view in Fermo per sempre make a similar demand of the viewer. Like Calvino's postmodern cartography, Giulio Noccesi's paintings construct a subjective map of his native Italy, an intricate network of isolated yet interrelated scenes. Each painting is simultaneously autonomous and contingent, an intimate, self-contained reflection of his life and a reference to the Italian art historical canon that animates his compositions.

I'm Diane, and I'm here with my daughter Alysha (aka Eash Da Beast), and in this episode we're sitting down just 8 days out from her bodybuilding show - peak week is officially in full swing! We're talking through what life really looks like right now in prep: the low energy days, carb thoughts taking over everything, shredded lettuce cravings, and the routines that come with getting stage-ready. We also break down what typically shifts this close to show day when it comes to food, cardio, water, and mindset, and why keeping things as consistent and simple as possible becomes the main focus. We also get real about the day-to-day experience of peak week - sleep, sodium, cravings, and trying not to overthink every little change in the mirror. And of course, we still end up talking about post-show food dreams… because that's basically part of prep at this point
Bien avant Marco Polo, un autre voyageur avait déjà traversé une immense partie du monde connu. Son nom était Benjamin de Tudèle. Aujourd'hui presque oublié du grand public, cet aventurier espagnol du XIIe siècle a pourtant réalisé un périple extraordinaire, à une époque où voyager signifiait affronter les pirates, les guerres, les maladies et des milliers de kilomètres de routes dangereuses.Benjamin naît à Tudela, dans le nord de l'Espagne, vers 1130. Le monde dans lequel il vit est profondément instable. Les croisades bouleversent le Moyen-Orient. Les royaumes chrétiens, musulmans et byzantins s'affrontent. Pourtant, vers 1165, Benjamin décide de partir. Son objectif exact reste mystérieux. Commerce ? Curiosité ? Mission religieuse ? Sans doute un peu de tout cela.Son voyage commence par la Méditerranée. Il traverse le sud de la France, l'Italie puis embarque vers l'est. À chaque étape, il observe tout : les ports, les marchés, les religions, les palais, les coutumes locales. Il prend des notes avec une précision étonnante pour son époque.Lorsqu'il arrive à Constantinople, capitale de l'Empire byzantin, il découvre une ville gigantesque et fastueuse. Il décrit ses richesses, ses églises couvertes d'or et l'activité incessante de son port. Pour beaucoup d'Européens du XIIe siècle, cette ville semblait presque irréelle.Mais Benjamin ne s'arrête pas là. Il poursuit vers le Moyen-Orient et atteint Bagdad, alors l'une des plus grandes villes du monde. Ce qu'il raconte fascine encore les historiens aujourd'hui : des bibliothèques immenses, des marchés débordant d'épices, des savants, des médecins et une vie intellectuelle très développée. Pour les Européens occidentaux de son temps, Bagdad représentait presque une autre planète.Benjamin visite aussi Jérusalem, marquée par les croisades, puis Le Caire. Certains pensent même qu'il serait allé jusqu'en Perse. Son itinéraire exact reste partiellement mystérieux.Après des années de voyage, il retourne finalement en Espagne et rédige un ouvrage devenu célèbre : le “Livre des voyages”. Ce texte constitue aujourd'hui un témoignage exceptionnel sur le monde du XIIe siècle. Grâce à lui, les historiens connaissent mieux les routes commerciales, les grandes villes orientales et les communautés juives dispersées autour de la Méditerranée.Longtemps avant Marco Polo, Benjamin de Tudèle avait déjà ouvert une fenêtre sur un monde immense, dangereux et fascinant.

On a Happy Note Longer, warmer days! We had our niece & nephew, Gabriella & Zach over for a sleepover. We went on deer walks, watched The Wizard of Oz, made pancakes, and took turns on the mower and backhoe. Aila's birthday dinner which ended with an impromptu dance show by Hattie and a not-so-subtle take over by almost 2 year old Miles Zach's birthday party had animals- they had the most gorgeous rooster I've ever seen. After looking at machines for years, I finally bought an espresso maker. The girls Im going to Rhinebeck with this year started a Marco Polo group chat. Woke up early before NH Sheep and Wool- so I got a car wash and came with 10 min of vacuuming. I got that done and it felt SO good. Took a little field trip to the Beacon Hill Bookstore on Charles St with my co-workers. Lovely to get out, talk books, connect. Quote of the Week "Everybody has a little bit of the sun and moon in them. Everybody has a little bit of man, woman, and animal in them. Darks and lights in them. Everyone is part of a connected cosmic system. Part earth and sea, wind and fire, with some salt and dust swimming in them. We have a universe within ourselves that mimics the universe outside. None of us are just black or white, or never wrong and always right. No one. No one exists without polarities. Everybody has good and bad forces working with them, against them, and within them.

? You switched from ChatGPT to Claude and nothing changed. You built a Custom GPT and it still sounds like a robot. You are not bad at AI. You just have not built your AI Brain yet. This is the episode that answers how to make AI sound like you. The fix is not a smarter tool or a cleverer prompt. The fix is one master file you build once and use everywhere. Timestamps: [00:00] — The Marco Polo that started this episode [01:30] — What 'how to make AI sound like you' actually means [03:00] — The four building blocks every AI platform gives you [07:00] — Why projects, styles, instructions, and memory sit empty [08:30] — What an AI Brain actually is [10:30] — Magai mention (30% off link in resources) [11:30] — The warning before you build — garbage in, garbage out [13:00] — Six steps to build your AI Brain [17:30] — The read-out-loud test [18:30] — Why your AI Brain is a living document [19:30] — One thing to do this week + Jumpers CTA In This Episode You'll Discover How to make AI sound like you in any platform — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or whatever drops next The four building blocks every AI tool gives you to load YOU into (and why three of them sit empty in most accounts) What an AI Brain is, what goes inside it, and why it is the single most important asset you will build this year The six-step process to build your AI Brain from the content you have already created The simple read-out-loud test that tells you if your AI Brain is actually working About This Episode This is the episode that answers the most-asked question Bella gets right now — how to make AI sound like you. Spoiler: it has nothing to do with the tool, the prompt, or the project. It has to do with the one master file every small business owner needs to build before anything else. Bella Vasta has been helping pet business owners and small business owners scale their operations for over a decade, and she now teaches AI fluency to the same audience that built Jump Consulting into a leading voice in the pet industry. Resources Mentioned in This Episode Magai — 30% off all major AI tools in one place Free 20-minute call with Bella The Jumpers Mastermind George B. Thomas master prompt: It's more than just grammar and your voice. It is deeper. Here is an example…. You are going to act as my personal interviewer and reflection coach. Your goal is to help me identify and define my 7 Core Values, 7 Core Mindsets, and 7 Core Beliefs that can guide the building of my digital clone.Please follow these steps carefully:1. Ask me one reflective question at a time. Do not move to the next question until I've answered.2. After each answer, ask a short follow-up to go deeper or clarify.3. Keep my answers simple, conversational, and human. No jargon.4. At the end of the full interview, create three separate draft lists:• Top 7 Core Values (what I stand for and won't compromise on)• Top 7 Core Mindsets (how I approach life, business, and challenges)• Top 7 Core Beliefs (what I teach, repeat, and want others to carry with them)5. Use my exact phrasing when possible so the lists feel authentic to me.Interview FlowStep 1: Core ValuesStart with: “Let's explore your core values. What principles do you try to live by, no matter what?”Then ask 5–7 follow-ups like:• What would make you walk away from a client, even if it cost you money?• When do you feel most proud of yourself or your work?• What do you want humans to always experience when they work with you?Step 2: Core MindsetsTransition with: “Now let's uncover your core mindsets. How do you naturally think about challenges and opportunities?”Ask 5–7 follow-ups like:• What's your first thought when something goes wrong?• How do you keep moving forward when things feel overwhelming?• How do you think about growth—personally and in business?Step 3: Core BeliefsTransition with: “Finally, let's capture your beliefs. These are the truths you share again and again.”Ask 5–7 follow-ups like:• What lessons do you repeat so often your friends or clients could quote you?• If you could leave one message behind for your community, what would it be?• What do you believe about humans, business, or life that guides every decision you make?Wrap UpOnce I've answered all the questions, create my draft lists of 7 Core Values, 7 Core Mindsets, and 7 Core Beliefs.Label them clearly. Keep the language simple and human, like I'd actually say it.I hope that gives you something to think about and I hope I explained it enough Bella's blog on setting up Claude properly RELATED EPISODES Episode 433 Episode 435 Episode 444 Episode 464 Connect with Bella Website Sessions with Bella The Jumpers Mastermind Subscribe to Bella in Your Business Bella's Website Find Bella on Instagram and Facebook — search Bella Vasta Frequently Asked Questions Q: How do I make AI sound like me? A: You build an AI Brain — a single master file containing your voice, beliefs, vocabulary, stories, and stances. You upload that file into Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or any AI tool, and the output instantly sounds like you. Switching platforms without an AI Brain does not change the output, because the new tool is just another empty container. Q: What is an AI Brain? A: An AI Brain is a portable markdown file that holds your full voice and identity. It includes your pillars, beliefs, vocabulary, forbidden words, stories, and registers — how you talk to clients, how you talk to peers, and how you talk on stage. You drop it into any AI platform and that platform instantly knows who you are. It lives in your Google Drive or Dropbox so you can use it everywhere. Q: Should I use Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini to make AI sound like me? A: The platform matters less than what is loaded inside it. Bella recommends Claude for written content because it is the strongest writer, but the AI Brain strategy works in ChatGPT (Custom GPTs), Gemini (Gems), and Magai equally well. If you want to test all four without paying four subscriptions, Magai gives you one login for all of them. Q: Why does my Custom GPT still sound like a robot? A: Because the project is empty. A Custom GPT, Claude Project, or Gemini Gem is just a container. Without an AI Brain loaded inside it, the AI has nothing to draw on except generic training data. You did not load YOU in. You loaded a business card. Build the Brain first, then build the project on top of it. Q: What are the four building blocks of any AI platform? A: Projects (Claude Projects, Custom GPTs, Gemini Gems), Styles (Claude Styles, ChatGPT Custom Instructions, Gemini Gem instructions), Project Instructions (the rules inside a single project), and Memory (universal memory across the platform plus project memory inside one workspace). Most small business owners only use one of these. Filling all four is the difference between AI that sounds generic and AI that sounds like you. Full Episode Transcript I got this DM last week and this pet sitter was so excited because she was like, I finally switched to Claude. She's been hearing me talk all about how Claude is so much superior in terms of writing and thinking to ChatGPT. She couldn't wait to finally tell me that she's done all this stuff, that she uploaded her website, she's created her projects. She did everything that I basically had talked about in my last blog. where I explained the whole difference of it. And then she's even in the mastermind where I went into a whole hour of like specific things of tips and tricks for Claude, okay? So she was on fire, she was totally excited, but I felt bad because I had to kind of slow her down. she wasn't like, she wasn't using AI, she was really just. changing apartments and stay with me here. It was like she was coming from ChatGPT and just mooch like changing the address on an empty apartment. Empty. OK. Like same four walls, same bare floors, brand new logo. Like but if you've ever built a custom GPT and it still sounds like a robot or if you've ever switched platforms like. three times or you're trying to go between all of them and you feel like they just all don't know about you. This is the episode for you today. I'm going to go through all of it and make sure that you understand that when you put something into AI how it should literally sound like you and not AI. People should be like, how are you working so much? Like how are you doing so much? Because they don't even know that it's AI that they're getting from you. All right. In today's episode, I'm literally gonna talk all about your AI brain. My name's Bella Vasta, and this is Bella in your business. Let's get into it. Today, I'm gonna give you a name for a thing that's been missing from your AI setup. I've taught you the technicalities of it, and I've given you the overview of it, right? But today, we're gonna talk about your AI brain. And as far as I'm concerned, I think I'm the only one that's coined this term. It is one file. It contains you. All right. It travels with you across every platform. I'm talking Gemini. I'm talking Claude. I'm talking ChatGPT, Perplexity. And it is the single biggest reason why your AI is going to start sounding like you. Or it's going to keep sounding like garbage, which hopefully you're a jumper that's not going to happen for you because you got me and you got a year and a half worth of podcast episodes at the very least or almost 40 trainings inside of the mastermind. So let's get into it. All right. Because the next 20 minutes, you're going to understand what your AI brain is and why three out of four AI features you're paying for are simply empty, probably. And exactly how you need to build yours. Now, let me just tell you one thing. If you are getting value from this show, please hit subscribe, please, and please give us a rating.

Serena Vinci"La Cina (è donna) nel SettecentoSguardi di genere ed esotismo nella cultura letteraria e teatrale italianaMimesis Edizioniwww.mimesisedizioni.itA partire da Marco Polo, lo sguardo europeo sulla Cina ha costruito un immaginario dalle sfumature mitiche, che ha subìto variazioni nel corso dei secoli, contribuendo all'evoluzione della cultura europea stessa. In questo percorso, l'elaborazione degli stereotipi ha coinvolto in modo particolare la rappresentazione della figura femminile. Infatti, la Cina ha rivestito un ruolo peculiare in quell'esotismo rintracciabile nel melodramma, nel teatro e nel romanzo del Settecento, secolo in cui i personaggi femminili emergono con una certa vivacità, e la fascinazione per le chinoiserie pervade tutta l'Europa. Attraverso l'analisi delle protagoniste di opere più note, come la Turandot di Carlo Gozzi, e di quelle meno note, come Le cinesi di Metastasio e il romanzo La cinese in Europa di Pietro Chiari, viene esplorato l'ideale proposto, dal punto di vista dei costumi e delle istituzioni, rivelando figure magnetiche come dark lady e personaggi al limite del queer.Serena Vinci è assegnista di ricerca dell'Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia. I suoi interessi di ricerca vertono sulla prosa letteraria in una prospettiva transculturale e di genere. È autrice del saggio Ragazze selvagge. Funzione narrativa ed evolutiva della selvatichezza (2024).Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Author and environmental advocate Miriam Horn brings the pioneering impact of wildlife conservationist George Schaller to life in her new book “Homesick for a World Unknown: The Life of George B. Schaller.” Since the 1950's, George, often along with his wife Kay (an anthropologist), pioneered the fieldwork of living peacefully amongst large, wild/free-living animals like snow leopards, gorillas, lions, tigers, jaguars, giant pandas, Tibetan antelope, Marco Polo sheep, and Gobi bears in remote habitats, that helped pave the way for humane conservationists like Jane Goodall and Dianne Fossey, recognizing animal agency and their "theory of mind." Schaller also created parks and preserves all around the world to save vital wilderness habitat. Why have most of us never heard of him?! It's important that the Schallers' legacy is intimately detailed through Miriam's wonderful storytelling to fully appreciate how they went to wild places few scientists had ventured, persevered in tough and often politically fraught conditions, trained a cadre of young local scientists around so many nations to protect their local wildlife, published scientific books and articles proving wild animals' vast capabilities and needs, and campaigned politically to get habitats protected. You'll enjoy this 50-minute lively discussion between author Miriam Horn and Carrie Freeman, host of In Tune to Nature.

What if the secret to a standout short-term rental isn't just great design, but a fully cohesive experience that starts the moment a guest clicks on your listing? In this episode, I'm joined by sisters Ashlyn and Olivia, the creative powerhouses behind Abideaway. We're diving into how a simple idea shared over a Marco Polo video evolved into a full-service studio that helps hosts build standout stays through the perfect marriage of design and strategy.We talk about:How interior design, branding, and web presence work together to create a seamless narrative for your propertyMoving beyond "who" your guest is to what they are worrying about, and how to solve those fears through intentional layout and amenitiesWhy custom art is more than just a "photo op" and how it can be used to stop the scroll and reinforce your property's storyPractical, high-impact advice on where to spend a limited budget in your kitchen, living room, or outdoor space for maximum ROIHow to mine architecture, local history, and personal passions to guide every design decision you makeBut this isn't just about aesthetics. It's about intentionality. Ashlyn and Olivia pull back the curtain on their creative process, from using Procreate mockups to ensure owner confidence to scoping mural projects that actually last. You'll hear their "design hotline" wisdom on how to avoid the "I wish they'd thought of that" moments that kill guest reviews, and how to create a space that feels custom, memorable, and deeply resonant.If you've been looking for the bridge between "just a rental" and a "cohesive brand," this conversation is your roadmap. Get ready to stop guessing and start designing with a clear, story-driven purpose.HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY POINTS:[00:59] A short introduction about our guests, Ashlyn Feller and Olivia Gerber from Abideaway, and shares how the idea started organically between them as sisters with complementary creative skill sets[04:31] Ashlyn and Olivia emphasize defining the ideal guest and starting with priorities to build a cohesive STR brand[07:45] Olivia explains starting with the ideal guest avatar and using a phased approach to build a cohesive STR brand experience[11:35] Olivia shares her philosophy of designing with intentionality and uncovering the story of a property[13:27] Olivia describes ways for hosts who are bootstrapping their STR design to uncover and build the story of their property[16:04] Ashlyn and Olivia explain when themed properties make sense and the role of data in decision-making [17:44] Olivia shares why engaging a designer early in the acquisition process is beneficial [18:45] Olivia and Ashlyn talk about what to consider in design before closing on a property and explain that designers can also refresh or elevate underperforming properties[20:37] Ashlyn shares why murals are a powerful design tool for short-term rentals and describes how hosts can budget for them based on size, complexity, and customization [24:16] Ashlyn describes her mural creation process from concept to installation, including design mockups, painting techniques, and care, and [27:26] Ashlyn shares creative ideas for placing murals in both large and smaller spaces and introduces the STR Sisterhood Design Hotline as a resource for hosts seeking design guidance[29:21] Ashlyn and Olivia describe the STR Sisterhood Design Hotline and what folks can expect if they've never been to a design hotline[32:39] Ashlyn and Olivia explain how even a modest $1,000 budget can meaningfully improve different areas of a short-term rental when spent strategically[34:01] Ashlyn explains how to approach branding with a limited budget by focusing on defining the overall guest experience and building a cohesive brand beyond just a logo[37:44] The lightning round Golden Nuggets:“We have to go deeper and understand what that person is thinking when they're looking at properties, what that person is thinking when they are making a booking decision, what that person is stressed out about, what they're afraid of, what they're concerned about if they book the wrong property, because those are the things that ideal guest is not actually telling anyone that's a conversation he or she is having with themselves.”“Pull some piece of the puzzle and use that as, like a seed of inspiration.”“I am a huge believer that we are all in business to, not only, you know, improve our own lives. But isn't it great that we can proactively help each other like that just makes us all go to bed at night feeling that much better, right?”“Build your network and build it strong.”“If we're not aware, number one of things we need to tackle in our businesses, or things that may need improvement in our businesses, if we don't dedicate focused thinking time, which is that white space, we can go for months and even years without having those problems solved or those new ideas generated.”Let's Connect:Website : https://www.abideaway.com/Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090299230620Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/abideaway/ Enjoyed the show?

A cuenta de la tensión en el estrecho de Ormuz, el espacio con Javier Traité conecta la actualidad con una historia marcada por el comercio global y, también, por no pocas “tontadas” recurrentes: desde propuestas virales para sortear el bloqueo excavando canales imposibles hasta soluciones que, en realidad, ya se aplicaban hace más de dos mil años, cuando las mercancías se descargaban para cruzar la península por tierra y volver a embarcarse en la otra costa. Lejos de ser un punto secundario, Ormuz fue durante siglos un nodo clave entre el Mediterráneo, India y China, con enclaves como Mleiha o la propia ciudad medieval de Ormuz articulando rutas de incienso, especias, perlas o tejidos en un sistema comercial sorprendentemente sofisticado. Incluso en la Edad Media, lejos del tópico de aislamiento, el enclave llegó a concentrar a miles de comerciantes de todo el mundo, aunque las crónicas de viajeros como Marco Polo o Odorico de Pordenone también dejan constancia de unas condiciones extremas, con un calor abrasador convertido casi en leyenda. Un recordatorio, en definitiva, de que los debates actuales —y sus exageraciones— tienen ecos claros en un pasado donde geopolítica, comercio y relato siempre han ido de la mano.

Plongez dans un épisode passionnant de l'histoire de la Chine, alors que le dernier empereur de la dynastie des Song fait face à l'inexorable avancée des armées mongoles menées par le puissant Kublai Khan. En 1279, la confrontation finale a lieu sur les côtes de la Chine du Sud. D'un côté, l'empereur Song Bing, un jeune garçon de 8 ans, entouré de ses derniers loyalistes. De l'autre, Kublai Khan, le petit-fils du légendaire Gengis Khan, qui a déjà largement étendu son empire sur la majeure partie de la Chine. Bien que les Song disposent d'une armada navale bien plus importante que celle de leur adversaire, leur stratégie défensive les empêche de manœuvrer efficacement. Face à l'inéluctable défaite, le jeune empereur et son premier ministre choisiront la voie de l'honneur plutôt que la captivité. Un acte de résistance symbolique qui marquera la fin d'une ère. Sous le règne de Kublai Khan, la Chine connaîtra alors une profonde transformation. Le mode de vie nomade des Mongols, leur système de succession et leur vision du pouvoir vont peu à peu s'imposer, bousculant les traditions chinoises ancestrales. Mais le nouveau maître de la Chine saura aussi faire preuve d'une surprenante adaptabilité, s'entourant de conseillers chinois et ouvrant l'empire aux influences étrangères.C'est dans ce contexte de transition que le célèbre voyageur Marco Polo fera la connaissance du grand Khan, nous offrant un fascinant témoignage sur la splendeur de cette Chine médiévale.

Den uppseglande energikrisen visar hur fast världen fortfarande är i fossila bränslen. Redan Marco Polo såg början på beroendet, där även svensk järnexport till Nazityskland ingår. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. I en ny bok skildras vårt utnyttjande av naturtillgångar under de senaste 5 000 åren, och till stor del är det en historia om energi. Från trä till stenkol, via olja och naturgas, och vidare till förnybar energi. Men det där sista steget låter vänta på sig, vilket den pågående krisen är ett tydligt tecken på. I denna första del av två hör vi om Kinas tidiga ledarroll inom fossila bränslen som imponerade på Marco Polo, och om hur de svenska bröderna Nobel ledde utvecklingen mot världens första stora oljemetropol. Medverkande: Per Högselius, professor i teknikhistoria vid KTH som skrivit boken ”Gräv upp, hugg ned, pumpa ut - människan och naturresurserna under 5 000 år”.

Crime fiction has rarely produced a protagonist quite like Kay Scarpetta. For decades, Patricia Cornwell's bestselling novels followed the brilliant forensic pathologist and medical examiner navigating grisly cases while balancing the messy emotional realities of family, love, and professional obsession. Now, the long-awaited adaptation has finally arrived in the form of Prime Video's new series “Scarpetta,” starring Nicole Kidman as the iconic medical examiner alongside Jamie Lee Curtis, Ariana DeBose, Bobby Cannavale, Simon Baker, and more.The show is shepherded by creator and showrunner Liz Sarnoff, whose writing résumé includes “Barry,” “Lost,” “Deadwood,” and “Marco Polo.” The series takes an ambitious approach to Cornwell's world by weaving together two timelines: one set in the late 1990s and another in the present day, allowing the story to explore both the early years of Scarpetta's career and the more seasoned version of the character audiences meet decades later.READ MORE: ‘DTF: St. Louis': Jason Bateman, Linda Cardellini, David Harbour, & Steve Conrad On Vulnerability, Sexual Secrets, & Jason Bateman's MCU Character [Bingeworthy Podcast]On this episode of The Playlist's Bingeworthy podcast, Sarnoff joins host Mike DeAngelo to talk about finally bringing the beloved character to the screen, why the show merges multiple books into a single narrative structure, how Kidman approached the technical realities of forensic work, and how the series distinguishes itself from typical procedural storytelling.
Nous sommes le 21 décembre 1937. Dans son journal de bord, Azuma Shirō, soldat de première classe au sein du 20e régiment d'infanterie de la 16e division de l'Armée impériale japonaise, écrit : « On les fusille à la mitrailleuse. Puis on les poignarde jusqu'à satiété à la baïonnette. J'ai dû planter plus de trente de ces abominables soldats chinois à cette occasion. On se sent rempli d'une puissante sensation de force et de bravoure, comme si on avait abattu un démon, lorsqu'on grimpe en haut d'une telle montagne de morts. » Nous sommes quelques jours après la chute de Nankin, la capitale de la République de Chine, le régime nationaliste, tombée aux mains des Japonais. En Asie, la Seconde Guerre mondiale a démarré en 1937. Le 7 juillet, l'empereur japonais Hirohito, déjà maître de la Mandchourie et futur dirigeant des forces de l'Axe avec Hitler et Mussolini, prend prétexte d'une escarmouche avec les Chinois sur le pont Marco-Polo, près de Pékin, pour lancer une offensive sur la ville fortifiée. Six semaines durant, les soldats de l'armée impériale se déchaînent dans un massacre d'une cruauté sans précédent. Aujourd'hui encore, le nombre de victimes n'est pas connu avec précision, les estimations allant de 90.000 à 300.000 morts. Cet événement demeure un point de rupture diplomatique majeur entre la Chine et le Japon. Le massacre de Nankin fait l'objet d'un conflit mémoriel entre instrumentalisation politique, nationalisme et révisionnisme. Une mémoire qui n'en finit pas de menacer l'équilibre de la région.

Greg Jenner is joined in the sixteenth century by Dr Alanna Skuse and comedian Ria Lina to learn all about medicine and medical professionals in Tudor and Stuart England. In Renaissance-era England, medicine was still based on the theory of the four humours, passed down from ancient Greek and Roman physicians like Hippocrates and Galen. But from the reign of Henry VIII, there were signs of change. The invention of the printing press led to an explosion in medical and anatomical books, and the circulation of ideas from across Europe. The College of Physicians was founded in 1518, and the Company of Barber-Surgeons in 1543. Medicine became a real business, with a range of specialists, professional bodies overseeing different kinds of healthcare, and an explosion of medical providers advertising their services to the general public. This episode explores the landscape of healthcare in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England, looking at everyone from physicians, surgeons and apothecaries to domestic healers and midwives, and even taking in quacks and frauds. Along the way, it examines the sensible social distancing measures taken during the Great Plague, the cures both sensible and dangerous offered for all kinds of diseases, and the cutting-edge experiments men like William Harvey and Christopher Wren were carrying out on the circulation of the blood. If you're a fan of the history of everyday life in Tudor England, petty professional rivalries, and the whacky wellness trends of the past, you'll love our episode on medicine in Renaissance England. If you want more from Ria Lina, listen to our episodes on pirate queen Zheng Yi Sao and medieval traveller Marco Polo. And for more on the history of health and wellness, check out our episodes on Ancient Medicine, Renaissance Beauty and the Kellogg Brothers. You're Dead To Me is the comedy podcast that takes history seriously. Every episode, Greg Jenner brings together the best names in history and comedy to learn and laugh about the past.

On this episode of The Rizzuto Show, the chaos begins at home when Rizzuto learns the hard way that “I got this” is not a substitute for training, tools, or common sense. What starts as a slightly off-track garage door quickly turns into a full-blown mechanical disaster involving bent pliers, fallen rollers, and the inevitable call to a professional who definitely judged him. From there, the confessions pour in — abandoned self-improvement goals, a dusty notebook labeled “Chapter One,” a sourdough starter that refuses to die, and financial decisions that now live in the “we don't talk about that” category.The show then zooms out to the larger failures we all share, including the soul-crushing realities of adulthood, homeownership surprises, third-shift vampire lifestyles, bad leadership, and raises so small they may as well be spread with a butter knife. Somewhere in the middle of all this, nostalgia sneaks in and emotionally uppercuts everyone as Rizzuto admits to crying in his underwear while watching old commercials that hit harder than therapy ever could.As if that weren't enough, the crew pivots into full pop culture chaos — childhood “investments” like trading cards collapsing in real time, satanic-looking concerts allegedly cursing sports teams, and HBO continuing its aggressive commitment to realism in the weirdest ways possible. Celebrity news, questionable marketing decisions, unnecessary nudity debates, and modern entertainment absurdities all get their moment in the spotlight.Then, just when you think things can't get more unhinged, trivia enters the chat. Matchup returns, and with it comes misplaced confidence, wildly incorrect answers, zodiac signs being publicly humiliated, Marco Polo logic that makes sense to no one, and historical facts taking repeated direct hits. Nobody truly wins, but everyone loses with confidence — which somehow feels very on brand.This is The Rizzuto Show at its best: funny, self-aware, slightly concerned for humanity, and completely comfortable being wrong as long as it's entertaining. If you've ever been confident, nostalgic, cursed, or loudly incorrect — welcome home.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOResearch City:‘Did you forget about us?': Riverview streets still covered after weekend snowNIGHT & DAY Night shift workers see just 29 minutes of daylight on a working day, new study findsWhy you'll get a ‘peanut butter raise' this year: What it means and how much to expect?Hasbro is being sued by its own shareholders for printing so many damn Magic cards, 'destroying the long-term value of the brand'Ghost Accused Of ‘Super Satanic' Curse After NBA Loss, Because Of Course They WereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Welcome to The Rizzuto Show — the funny podcast that proves trivia is less about knowing answers and more about how loudly you can defend the wrong ones.On this episode, the crew dives headfirst into another round of trivia Matchup, a game designed to test knowledge, memory, logic, and emotional stability… and somehow only one of those things shows up. Moon, Learn, Rafe, and King Scott take turns absolutely torching their own credibility while attempting to answer questions that sound easy until your brain fully abandons you under pressure.We kick things off with Moon vs. Learn, a showdown that immediately spirals thanks to Barbie lore, calories, immortal honey, and the eternal question: what actually is a group of flamingos called? (Spoiler: nobody feels confident, but Moon feels confident anyway.) Marco Polo's nationality becomes a full vibe-based argument, Friends episode counts get wildly inflated, and logic is applied in ways science has specifically asked us not to.Then it's Rafe vs. King Scott, and this is where things truly get unhinged. Zodiac signs become public enemies, water signs are debated like conspiracy theories, and Rumpelstiltskin's straw-to-gold origin story is somehow made harder than it's been for centuries. Insulin, Yellowstone Lake, Johnny Carson, and the circumference of the Earth all take collateral damage as the crew confidently locks in answers that history itself disagrees with.What makes this episode special isn't who wins — it's how everyone loses just a little bit. The trash talk is elite, the confidence is unearned, and the logic is aggressively creative. This is The Rizzuto Show in peak form: loud, sarcastic, self-aware, and completely unbothered by being wrong as long as it's entertaining.If you love daily chaos, dumb confidence, and the sound of your own brain yelling “HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW THIS?” at your speakers, this funny podcast is exactly what you signed up forFollow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
*This episode originally aired in 2017. I made a new intro/ reaction to it. It's my first conversation ever with my now very dear friend. Look out for an updated conversation between us next week. January 2017Today's conversation is one of the rare occasions where I make a friend live on the podcast. This conversation exceeded my expectation of what Christine would be like live. She was every bit as thoughtful, earnest, and wise as she comes off in the hundreds of YouTube videos she's published. Christine went to film school and simultaneously began on YouTube when she was just 18 and has been uploading to her chanel ever since. Her videos range from home decor to film photography to make-up to design to music. We get into everything from a cultivating a career as a freelancer to recovering after a tough breakup to handling aging and body image and finding a community. We also talk about style, religion, family, travel and more. I loved meeting her and having this meandering conversation which I think you'll love too.
