Dive into the world of real estate with these top-performing realtors from the Tulsa, Oklahoma area, who bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table. Stephen Hester, who impressively closed over 30 deals in his first year of real estate, attributes his success to his unique approach of educating people about real estate and showcasing the charm of living in Tulsa through YouTube. May West, known as a mega agent due to her exceptional production and the numerous families she has assisted, is a true powerhouse in the industry.

In this episode Mark interviews James Fell, Sweary Historian, about his latest book On This Day in History, Sh!t Went Down. Warning to listeners: In this episode, adult language goes down. A lot. If you are offended by swearing and adult language, please do NOT listen to this episode. Prior to the interview, Mark shares comments, from recent episodes, a personal update, and a word from this episode's sponsor. You can learn more about how you can get your work distributed to retailers and library systems around the world at starkreflections.ca/Findaway. During their conversation, Mark and James discuss: His experience writing as a freelance investigative journalist within the diet and fitness industry for the LA Times and Chicago Tribune How James' literary agent compared his previous book The Holy Shit Moment as a combination of Malcolm Gladwell's Blink with Jen Sincero's You Are a Badass The way that The Holy Shit Moment was a book with a bit of a scientific analysis on "how shit works" and learning that you can't make those "holy shit" moments happen, but you can set up the groundwork for making it more likely to occur The way that the book The Holy Shit Moment flopped and what that meant for James' career despite all the media attention and support Being in a tough and tight headspace where he wasn't sure what was going to happen with his career, with a book flop, Trump looking like he was going to be re-elected, a Covid-19 pandemic lockdown The way that exercise can be an important part of paving the way for an epiphany moment The long bike-ride James was on that led to the idea for this new book and shift to his writing focus over to history The idea of the "this day in history" posts to share to Facebook How the 2nd post about May West "blew up" on social media (5 million views within a month) and prompted people to suggest he should convert these types of posts into a book The way James would decide on what to write for any specific day The more than 1000 variations of the word "Fuck" that appears in the On This Day in History Shit Went Down A future book that James has been working on called Greedy Sexist Religious Bigots Who Hate Science The move James made to Patreon with his daily history post content and his weariness about whether or not it would work. But how, within a few hours, he was already well into a few thousand dollars How, within 3 months, James was in the top 30 of all writers on Patreon Moving over to Substack and how they encourage people to provide content for free to create an audience, while also having some content behind a paywall The deep and meaningful connection that people can feel towards writers they respect and admire The generosity shown to sci-fi author John Varley via a health crisis and GoFundMe campaign How, even though people can read the entire content of the book for free, sales of On This Day In History Shit Went Down are exploding The print book significantly outpacing the eBook sales on this title despite doing no advertising or marketing outside of sharing free content from the book on social media The importance of a blatant and direct CALL TO ACTION to "get the book And more... After the interview Mark reflects on the change in writing focus James took as well as his fully embracing both traditional publishing and indie publishing options to fully leverage his IP to his greatest benefit, as well as his combination of nimble indie author marketing tactics combined with a progressive business-oriented approach.

It is possible for me to not swear. I was a columnist for the Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune for many years. I think the LA Times let me get away with “hell” twice. I've also been a columnist for Chatelaine and AskMen, and written for TIME Magazine, the Guardian, NPR, Women's Health, Men's Health, and many others. You can see a sample of my published articles here. Additionally, I've had countless radio and TV appearances and never uttered a profane word a single time. Go me. I began as a health and fitness writer and have published two books. The first is Lose it Right: A Brutally Honest 3-Stage Program to Help You Get Fit and Lose Weight Without Losing Your Mind published by Random House Canada in 2014. The second is about the science of the life-changing epiphany titled The Holy Sh!t Moment: How Lasting Change Can Happen in an Instant published by St. Martin's Press in 2019. Yes, I wrote a book with a swearword in the title. Both are heavy on the science, containing no bullshit. I also have a popular blog that has millions of readers where I have written on a wide variety of subjects that include fitness, diet, and motivation, but certainly isn't limited to that. The blog is very sweary.

In episode 49 of the Close Knit podcast, I spoke to Charlotte X C Sullivan, one of two folks who run May West: a textile innovation collaboration between Charlotte and Alayna Rasile-Digrindakis. Charlotte walks me through how May West formed, through connection and feeling, and how this has continued to inform their work with milkweed. We discuss the way that clothing, and fashion, can serve as armor, a way to cloak and protect yourself through circumstances in life. She explains to me how her collaboration with Alayna began, and how their expression of feeling has impacted their process, and how they intend to imbue their clothing with purpose and meaning through each stage of production.Charlotte tells me about the evolution of May west’s design studio, from drop spinning of milkweed fibers, to its current iteration: jackets using milkweed batting as insulation, how this iterative process has unfolded over time, through prototypes and experiments. We discuss the importance of local manufacturing and how they’ve managed this production process thus far.What I think is most special about this chat is the way that it unfolded from a place of curiosity- something I am realizing is such an important part of my own practice and this podcast, and it was interesting to see that mirrored in the way that Charlotte tends to work. I knew very little of milkweed & its practical uses, and I found it incredibly intriguing to hear Charlotte and Alayna’s collaborative approach towards May West. I feel I need to disclose that the circumstances of this podcast making were a first for me- I recorded it in a friend’s house in Hobart & had little control over the external auditory circumstances, so please bear with me if the audio quality is a little less than you’ve come to expect.This was an experiment in dedication for me- seeing if it’s possible to continue creating content as usual, without my safe set up.

Connie Morella on becoming a Republican ~ "Mac was running for office and he had very stiff competition. He was a Republican. I had to cross-over and become a Republican to vote for him in a primary. I did, and I thought, I think I'll go back. Then, I looked at what was happening in our Country. I saw Jacob Javits, Clifford Case, Everett Dirksen. I saw all of these great men who brought both sides together who were Republicans. Who believed in fiscal responsibility, but also believed in liberal rights, rights for people. I stayed a Republican. I became the Moderate Republican, which then gradually became an endangered species, and now it is almost extinct." Connie Morella (right) and Andy Ockershausen (left) in studio interview A Ockershausen: This is Andy Ockershausen, and this is Our Town. We have such a delightful, delightful friend and one of the great women of my lifetime. In spite, my wife is right up there too. She's made such an impact on Our Town. So many ways in a national local level. She served in, The United States Congress representing the 8th Congressional District, of Maryland, as a Republican. That will never happen again. She's a mother to 9 children, a teacher, and an advocate for human rights, women's health, and domestic violence issues. Did she stop after Congress? No way. She was just beginning, and she's here today to tell us about what she's been up to besides Ambassador of France. She's had a wonderful, wonderful career after Congress, and that's Connie Morella. Connie Morella: Thank you very much Andy O. Your very lavish introduction reminded me of something attributed to May West if you can remember that name from the old, old ... When she said, "Too much of a good thing, can be downright enjoyable." A Ockershausen: Oh my God. May West, come up and see me sometime. I remember all those sayings. I think Ken might be too young. Ken's our technical director. Ken Hunter: No, I remember May West. Oh yes. Somerville, Massachusetts | Grammar School through High School A Ockershausen: Connie, you have had such a remarkable impact on Our Town. In addition to your work in Congress, but it's so many things. You are from Somerville, Massachusetts. It's a long way from Washington, but maybe it isn't. Maybe it was great. You went to school ... You went to grammar school in Somerville? Connie Morella: I did indeed, and high school. A Ockershausen: Catholic school? Connie Morella: No. Public school. On Boston University A Ockershausen: Wow. You went to BU, that's not Catholic either. Connie Morella: Yeah, right. A Ockershausen: Is that a city school, or is that part of U Mass? Connie Morella: No, no, that's a private school. A Ockershausen: Private school? Connie Morella: Boston University. A Ockershausen: It's not connected with any religious order? Connie Morella: You know, it's like so many of these major universities, have some kind of a connection. Sometimes very remote. There is a remote connection with Methodists. Just like American University. It's Methodist . . . A Ockershausen: They're actually common usually. Connie Morella: Exactly. Boston University is in that ... A Ockershausen: A very, very independent school. Connie Morella: Right. A Ockershausen: You learned a lot, and learned to be very independent. How did you learn ... Did you learn growing up to be a Republican, or did that evolve? Connie Morella: No. In Somerville, Boston, Massachusetts, you're not a republican. I grew up in a Democratic household. I was Democrat when we married and came to Washington DC, and then moved into Maryland. What happened? My epiphany came when Charles "Mac" Mathias, who was the Senator ...
