ETFs look simple on the surface—you buy a ticker and move on. But behind every ETF is a set of mechanics that explains how shares get created, why prices usually stay close to what the fund owns, and when trading costs and tax outcomes can surprise you. In Part 2 of this three-episode series, I break down the ETF "plumbing" in plain English so you can use ETFs more confidently and avoid common mistakes. Listen now and learn: ► What authorized participants actually do—and why they matter to everyday ETF investors ► How the creation/redemption process works behind the scenes when supply and demand shift ► Why NAV and market price can diverge, and what typically pulls them back together ► The practical implications for you: spreads, execution, and when ETFs can behave differently than mutual funds   Visit www.TheLongTermInvestor.com for show notes, free resources, and a place to submit questions.   Disclosure: This content, which contains security-related opinions and/or information, is provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon in any manner as professional advice, or an endorsement of any practices, products or services.

Technology in golf has never been more powerful — launch monitors, swing cameras, and data are everywhere. But without understanding the mechanics behind the numbers, the data alone won't help you improve.In this episode of Pivot The Path, we break down why mechanics always come first. The ball flight you see is simply the result of how your body moves and how the club travels through space.One of the easiest ways to understand your swing is by tracing the butt end of the club — revealing the macro plane of your motion and showing how the body organizes the downswing. Please refer to Episode 112 for more details on that. When you learn to connect what the body is doing to what the club is doing, the technology you're using suddenly becomes far more valuable.Because improvement isn't about chasing numbers — it's about understanding how your movement creates them.Move better.Play efficiently.Own Your SSWING. ⛳️Shop SSWING Swag

31-year-old Maureen and 37-year-old Mark ended their 8-year relationship after Maureen began to believe her need for intimacy was “too much” for Mark. In this episode of Make Him Wonder, we listen in as iconic therapist Esther Perel explores whether reconnection is possible after a breakup—and I share my perspective. Through the lens of the Mechanics of Men and a critical mindset shift, I unpack how Maureen's needs became misinterpreted, and what she can do, going forward, to have the best chance of getting her needs met should the couple get back together.

GS#251 Oct 10, 2010. This is our introduction to the late Tony Manzoni from episode 251 published in October, 2010. Over the next few weeks, we're going to feature all the conversations we had with Tony before he passed away in 2018. Tony, a co-founder of Callaway, developed the Single Pivot Swing after extensively studying Ben Hogan's swing. Tony was chosen by inventor Ted Caldwell as a knowledgable instructor who could explain the value of a new product at the time called “Shot Watch” which was a valuable swing aide that monitors rhythm, grip pressure and swing speed. Ted also joins in to provide more details. Click here to find the most comprehensive information about Tony ever assembled.

They explore the benefits, challenges, and ethical considerations of private equity ownership, as well as how it influences business operations, customer relationships, and overall market dynamics.Here's the link to Inspector Empire Builder: https://www.iebcoaching.com/eventsTakeawaysPrivate equity (PE) buys service companies to generate higher, faster returns than traditional investments.PE ownership typically brings major operational changes—software, compensation, insurance, branding, and company culture.Large PE-backed companies can outspend small businesses on marketing (especially Google ads), pushing independents down in search visibility.Consolidation can create near‑monopolies in some markets, reducing consumer choice and increasing prices.Strong profit pressure often leads to aggressive or ethically questionable upselling, shifting focus away from true customer needs.Big roll‑ups can erode the personal relationships customers value, causing long‑time employees and clients to leave.PE-owned firms heavily emphasize metrics—conversion rates, revenue per call, average ticket—sometimes at the expense of service quality.Smaller companies win through trust, direct communication, craftsmanship, and community‑based referrals rather than high‑pressure sales.Huge review counts can hide negative experiences; fewer but consistent 5‑star reviews from smaller companies often reflect better service.Consumers should rely on referrals (inspectors, tradespeople, neighbors, realtors) instead of only choosing the top sponsored Google results.Selling to PE isn't inherently bad, but owners must understand PE's goals and be prepared for major cultural and operational changes.When interest rates rise and profits tighten, PE buying slows—but consolidation continues long-term.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome02:15 Understanding Private Equity05:01 The Mechanics of Private Equity07:33 The Impact of Private Equity on the Market11:03 The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Private Equity17:58 Navigating Changes Post-Acquisition22:09 Personal Perspectives on Selling to Private Equity26:11 The Power of Referrals in Service Industries28:32 Private Equity's Impact on Business Operations31:13 Sales Techniques and Customer Education33:02 Ethics vs. Profit in Business36:01 The Future of Small Businesses in a PE-Dominated Market37:43 Balancing Profitability with Customer Relationships41:16 Ethics in Sales and Customer Service44:01 Navigating the PE Landscape for Business Owners48:26 Building a Reliable Network for Service Providers

A Vision Born from Compassion Fifty-two years ago, educator Bill Moyers looked around his classroom and asked a simple but profound question: where will these students go after graduation? In 1974, opportunities for individuals with disabilities were virtually nonexistent. Rather than accepting this reality, Moyers and his colleagues founded Shen-Paco, an organization that would transform the lives of hundreds of individuals across Shenandoah and Page Counties. Today, Moyers remains the chairman of the board, still passionately committed to the mission he started over half a century ago. His vision has grown from a small workshop on Route 11 in New Market to a comprehensive network serving approximately 100 individuals across two facilities and three group homes. From Workshops to Day Programs The organization has evolved dramatically since its early days. Initially, Shen-Paco operated as a workshop where individuals performed sub-minimum wage work. However, as Ingrid Thompson, the organization's outreach coordinator, explains, the word "workshop" has been removed from their dictionary entirely. This shift represents far more than semantic change—it reflects a fundamental transformation in how society views and serves people with disabilities. Instead of focusing on work, Shen-Paco now operates as a day program where individuals come to enjoy camaraderie with their peers, participate in crafts, and engage with their community. The change, Ingrid emphasizes, isn't a step backward—it's actually progress. The individuals served by Shen-Paco are living their best lives, free from the pressure of productivity metrics and workplace demands. More Than Activities: Building Community On any given day at Shen-Paco's facilities in Quicksburg or Luray, you'll find individuals participating in bingo tournaments, showing off their karaoke skills, or working on craft projects. Visitors regularly stop by to share their talents—from musicians performing concerts to woodworkers demonstrating their craft. The Sheetz organization makes an annual visit with their tanker truck, bringing treats that delight everyone. Yet the most critical component of Shen-Paco's program happens beyond their bright blue building's walls. Every single day, staff members take individuals out into the community. Sometimes it's just a quick trip to 7-Eleven for a drink. Other times, they visit coffee shops, restaurants, or stores throughout the valley. These outings serve a dual purpose that extends far beyond simple recreation. Changing Perceptions, One Interaction at a Time Ingrid passionately believes these community interactions are essential for breaking down decades of stigma. Historically, individuals with disabilities were hidden away in institutions or kept at home, invisible to the general public. Consequently, many people developed unfounded fears and misconceptions about interacting with disabled individuals. "They're just human beings like you or me," Ingrid explains. "They just may need a little bit of help here or there." She recounts a memorable trip to Chick-fil-A in Harrisonburg where a couple not only paid for the group's meals but also gave them a gift card, moved by witnessing Shen-Paco's work firsthand. These moments of connection are precisely what the organization aims to create. Furthermore, Thompson notes that individuals with disabilities are always accompanied by staff members or family, ensuring safe and supported interactions. They're non-judgmental, incredibly complimentary, and often surprisingly knowledgeable about specific subjects that capture their interest. The Brain Works Differently, Not Less One of the most important points Ingrid emphasizes is that individuals with disabilities possess remarkable intelligence—their brains simply work differently. Many excel at mathematics, others play piano beautifully, and some become experts on topics that fascinate them. When given the opportunity, they demonstrate depth of knowledge that often surprises people encountering them for the first time. Moreover, Thompson suggests that everyone has some form of disability. The difference is that most people have learned to adapt, while some individuals need additional support to navigate those challenges. This reframing helps normalize disability as part of the human experience rather than something separate or "other." Beyond Day Programs: A Home Away from Home While many people know Shen-Paco from its day program facilities, the organization also operates three group homes—two in New Market and one in Stanley. These homes house approximately twelve individuals who need residential support. As caregivers age, they often reach a point where they can no longer provide the physical care their loved ones require. Shen-Paco's group homes offer a solution, and the organization is already exploring the purchase of another home to meet growing demand. Ingrid jokes that she wants to live in these homes herself—they're beautifully maintained spaces where residents receive excellent care while maintaining as much independence as possible. The Reality of Funding Despite its vital role in the community, Shen-Paco faces significant financial challenges. The organization operates as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and most individuals attend through Medicaid waiver programs funded by their Social Security Disability benefits. While self-pay options exist, the reality is that Shen-Paco relies heavily on grants, fundraising, and community donations to bridge funding gaps. Currently, the organization's most pressing need involves its fleet of twenty-one vehicles. With an average age of twelve years, these vehicles require constant maintenance. A single set of tires costs around $1,000—multiply that by twenty-one vehicles, and the numbers become staggering. Add in brake replacements, oil changes, and general wear and tear, and transportation costs quickly spiral. Meanwhile, obtaining new buses through the grant process takes two to three years. Therefore, Shen-Paco must maintain its aging fleet while waiting for replacements. Shen-Paco has launched a fundraising campaign specifically targeting vehicle maintenance costs, recognizing that transportation is absolutely essential to the community integration that lies at the heart of their mission. How the Community Can Help Ingrid offers several ways community members can support Shen-Paco's work. Financial donations help fund outings—a simple coffee shop visit for five people costs $30, while zoo trips and other excursions require even more resources. Donations can be made through the organization's newly redesigned website at www.shen-paco.org or mailed directly to their Quicksburg facility. Additionally, the organization welcomes invitations from local businesses. Whether it's a coffee roaster showing how beans are ground or a manufacturer demonstrating production processes, these behind-the-scenes experiences provide invaluable learning opportunities. Shen-Paco typically brings small groups of five or six individuals, making visits manageable for host businesses. Mechanics and automotive businesses can also make a tremendous impact by offering discounted or pro bono services for the vehicle fleet. Every oil change, tire rotation, or brake job donated directly supports the mission of community integration. An Open Invitation Ingrid extends a warm invitation to anyone curious about Shen-Paco's work: visit the bright blue building in Quicksburg or the Luray facility anytime. See firsthand how individuals participate in activities, interact with staff, and prepare for community outings. Witness the hugs Ingrid receives each morning from people living their best lives, starting each day with genuine joy and affection. As March's Disability Awareness Month draws attention to these issues, Ingrid hopes the conversation continues long beyond the calendar page turns. Changing perceptions requires ongoing effort, consistent community presence, and countless individual interactions that gradually erode outdated stigmas. Looking Forward After fifty-two years, Shen-Paco continues adapting to meet evolving needs. The transition from workshops to day programs reflects broader societal shifts in understanding disability services. The expansion into group homes addresses aging caregivers' concerns. The emphasis on community integration actively combats isolation and stigma. Through it all, Bill Moyers' original question remains relevant: where will these individuals go? Thanks to Shen-Paco, the answer is everywhere—coffee shops, stores, restaurants, zoos, and countless other places throughout the Shenandoah Valley. They're not hidden away or segregated. Instead, they're living full, engaged lives as valued community members. As Ingrid reminds us, these individuals don't judge. They offer unconditional acceptance, genuine compliments, and pure joy. Perhaps the real question isn't how we can help them, but rather what we can learn from their approach to life. In a world often characterized by criticism and division, their non-judgmental kindness offers a powerful alternative.

This podcast is a companion to this year's "Nuts & Bolts" column. I talk all about how to slowly add mechanics to your set.

Want to talk about what you're hearing in this episode with Josh and Drew and others that share your experience?https://disordered.fm/community----In this episode, Josh and Drew break down the "Stress Jug"—a metaphor designed to explain why anxiety and panic often seem to appear out of nowhere. The guys discuss how accumulated stress, both positive and negative, can cause your "threat response" to overflow, leading to sensitization and the search for a threat where none exists.The Mechanics of Overflow: How the amygdala misinterprets a full "stress jug" as immediate danger, triggering unexpected fear and physical symptoms.The Role of Meaning-Making: Why your brain creates narratives (like health anxiety or fear of "going crazy") to explain internal discomfort.Beyond "Emptying the Jug": Why recovery isn't about avoiding stress or keeping the jug empty, but learning to tolerate the overflow when life gets heavy."Meta-Stress": Understanding the additional weight of being stressed about being stressed, and how that contributes to the cycle of disordered anxiety.The "Gunk" at the Bottom: Addressing long-term factors like grief, self-esteem, or unprocessed emotions that occupy space in your jug.We're also sharing "Did It Anyway" stories from the community, including a listener's trip to Jamaica despite anxiety and a first-time solo drive after years of avoidance. These stories highlight the importance of taking action even when you don't yet believe you are safe.---The Disordered Guide to Health Anxiety is now available. If you're struggling with health anxiety, this book is for you.---Struggling with worry and rumination that you feel you can't stop or control? Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Worry and Rumination Explained⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, a two hour pre-recorded workshop produced by Josh and Drew. The workshop takes a deep dive into the mechanics of worrying and ruminating, offering some helpful ways to approach the seemingly unsolvable problem of trying to solve seemingly unsolvable problems.-----Want to ask us questions, share your wins, or get more information about Josh, Drew, and the Disordered podcast? Send us an email or leave a voicemail on our website.

In this supercharged continuation, Courtenay Turner sits down with Michael King to map a repeatable architecture of influence that operates across eras, institutions, and ideologies. Rather than focusing only on “who did it,” Michael argues for tracking method—how populations get unmoored from inherited certainty, pushed into contradiction, and then offered relief narratives that become default lenses for reality. We explore: skepticism as the first stage of initiation; “controlled dialectics” where visible conflict can be structured toward predictable outcomes; the Enlightenment as a filtering mechanism; the philosophical pipeline from Descartes to Marx; cognitive dissonance as a governance lever; the role of education and “whole child” frameworks; noosphere/Aquarian-era framing as a spiritual UI for consent; and how environments—from the Palais-Royal to modern mass events—can function as initiation-by-ambience. We close with a practical protocol for spotting contradiction traps, definition games, and the soft-power packaging that precedes enforcement. Enjoyed this episode?

In this episode, Michael and Jim welcome Pavel “Flour” Dąbrowski, one of the brilliant minds in the Star Trek Adventures community, to discuss his innovative reimagining of the Extended Task mechanic. Pavel explains how adapting this system for personal and professional missions adds depth to character arcs—transforming what was once a mechanical hurdle into a storytelling engine that tracks growth, struggle, and success. From starship repairs to emotional breakthroughs, this conversation boldly explores how mechanics can serve narrative and enrich the role-playing experience.

Most golfers think they're practicing correctly.They're not.In this episode of the Athletic Motion Golf Podcast, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb chat with Erik Barzeski to break down the 4 types of golfers we see in lessons — and why only one type actually improves long-term. If you've ever wondered how to practice golf properly, why your swing changes don't stick, or why you're not getting better despite putting in the reps… this is for you.We dive deep into:- How to practice golf the right way- Why band-aid swing fixes don't last- The difference between block practice and variable practice- Why launch monitors can make you worse- How tour players actually practice- Why feedback (video, 3D, cameras) is everything- Foam balls and slow swings for real changeThe biggest mistakes golfers make when trying to improveIf you're not practicing with feedback… you're just exercising.This episode will completely change how you approach golf improvement.Whether you're a competitive player, weekend golfer, or instructor — understanding these four types of golfers could be the difference between staying stuck and finally breaking through.Comment below: Which type are you right now?

Send me a some feedback!In Part 8 of the Unbreakable series, Mike and Angie unpack one of the most confronting and irritating human patterns: self-sabotage. This episode explores how the nervous system, wired for familiarity over safety, unconsciously pulls us back to what it knows — even when life improves. From relationships to wealth to personal growth, they break down how “upper limits” show up and why we repeatedly sabotage joy, stability, and success when things get “too good.”Through personal stories, financial examples, addiction patterns, and relationship breakdowns, they reveal how self-sabotage isn't intentional — it's unconscious. And once you see it, you can't unsee it. This episode challenges you to stop blaming circumstances and start examining where your own nervous system may be quietly resetting your life back to its familiar baseline.Key TakeawaysYour nervous system prioritizes familiarity over safety. It keeps you alive by keeping you in what it knows — even if that environment is unhealthy.Self-sabotage is not conscious. It's an unconscious nervous system response when life exceeds your current capacity for joy, love, or wealth.You can be wired to have success but not wired to hold it. Without expanding your internal capacity, growth will trigger contraction.Upper limits affect every area of life. Financial growth can trip relationship issues. Relationship peace can trigger health problems. Everything is interconnected.Your “financial thermostat” determines your set point. If you exceed it, you'll unconsciously find a way to reset back to your familiar baseline — until you expand your capacity.Notable Quotes“The nervous system has one job and one job only and that's to keep you alive.”“It keeps you alive by keeping you in familiar circumstances.”“When things get too good, we fuck it up.”“When there's no reason for our joy and our happiness and fulfillment and the love in our heart to go away and it does, that's self-sabotage.”“If you're used to a low quality of life, your nervous system wants you to have it. And if you're used to a high quality of life, your nervous system wants you to have it because it knows how to operate there.”Call To ActionIf this conversation resonates, it's pointing to the deeper work—learning how to regulate internally instead of expecting life, success, or relationships to regulate you.

Most passive income pitches skip the math. This episode doesn't.In this episode of Mechanics of Money, Sam Silverman runs the actual numbers behind passive income: what it really takes to replace your salary through investing alone, why one deal at 8% gets you $8,000 a year and not your freedom, and why the math works, it just works a lot slower than most people want to admit.If you've ever been told that putting $100,000 into a deal changes your life, this episode is the reality check that actually helps.In this episode, we cover:The Income Replacement Math: To replace a $100K salary at 8% gross, you need $1.25 million invested. After taxes and fees, that number gets even bigger.The Catch-22 of Earning More: The more you make, the more capital you need working for you to match it. The percentage is a ratio — you never catch up faster, you just need more.What One Deal Actually Gets You: $100K at 8% cash on cash is $8,000 a year. That's a car payment, not a career replacement. To hit $100K in passive income, you need 12 to 13 deals at that check size.The Real Timeline: Years one through three barely move the needle. The curve starts bending around years five through seven. By years eight through ten, it finally feels like real income — but you've been at it for a decade.The Right Expectation: Year two is supposed to feel small. Stop comparing your year two to someone else's year ten.Links & Resources:Newsletter: Join the Mechanics of Money weekly deep dive: https://www.mechanicsofmoney.coInvest: Invest with Silverman Capital: https://silvermancapital.coAbout the Host: Sam Silverman is the Founder of Silverman Capital, a private equity and real estate investment firm.

A Note from James:In the first episode with Dr. Nicole McNichols, we talked about chemistry, myths, and why communication matters more than performance. This episode goes deeper—into biology, anatomy, dopamine, desire, and the mechanics of pleasure.There are a lot of myths around sex. Some are cultural. Some are Hollywood. Some come from bad science. And some just come from silence.This conversation gets specific. We talk about orgasm, desire, scheduling sex, the so-called “missionary problem,” novelty in long-term relationships, and why so much of what we assume about men and women sexually just isn't true.If Part 1 was about mindset, Part 2 is about understanding how sex actually works.Episode Description:What actually happens in the body during orgasm? Why does anticipation sometimes feel better than the act itself? And why are so many of our beliefs about sex simply wrong?In Part 2 of this three-part series, Dr. Nicole McNichols breaks down the biology of desire, the science of orgasm, and the myths that quietly sabotage long-term relationships.She explains why dopamine peaks during anticipation, why consistency—not intensity—is often key to orgasm, and why “missionary” might be underrated. They explore the anatomy of the clitoris (including research only fully mapped in 2006), the orgasm gap, responsive vs. spontaneous desire, and why scheduling intimacy can actually increase desire.This episode reframes sex not as performance, but as collaboration—an evolving, communicative process rooted in curiosity and growth.What You'll Learn:Why dopamine spikes during anticipation—and how to avoid the post-expectation letdownThe difference between spontaneous and responsive desire (for both men and women)Why consistency is physiologically critical during orgasmThe science behind the orgasm gap and what actually closes itWhy scheduling intimacy can increase frequency and desire—not kill spontaneityTimestamped Chapters:[00:02:00] No One Craves Bad Sex & The Myth of “Boring” Positions[00:03:18] Previously on Part 1: Porn Myths & Feeling Wanted[00:04:00] Chemistry, Pheromones & The Role of Safety[00:06:00] Sexual Growth Mindset & Compatibility[00:08:00] Fireworks vs. Communication[00:10:00] Anatomy, Diversity of Touch & The Clitoris Explained[00:12:00] Scripts, Feedback & How to Talk During Sex[00:17:00] Novelty, Micro-Novelty & Preventing Boredom[00:19:00] Wanting, Liking & Learning: The Pleasure Cycle[00:23:00] Expanding the Definition of Sex[00:25:00] The “Sex Recession” & Frequency Myths[00:27:00] Planning Intimacy & Scheduling Sex[00:31:00] Why Missionary Deserves a Rebrand[00:34:00] Internal Anatomy, the Clitoral Complex & Size Myths[00:39:00] What Is an Orgasm, Physiologically?[00:45:00] The Orgasm Gap & Why Fingering Matters[00:47:00] Consistency vs. “Faster & Harder”[00:49:00] Masturbation Myths & No Nut November[00:51:00] Refractory Period & Aging[00:55:00] Multiple Orgasms & What Research Shows[01:00:00] Love, Orientation & Novelty in Long-Term RelationshipsAdditional Resources:You Could Be Having Better SexNicole McNicholsHelen O'Connell – Research mapping full clitoral anatomy (MRI studies)Beverly Whipple – Orgasm research & physiological studiesA Moveable Feast – Referenced during discussionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
