Welcome back to another episode of BUTT HONESTLY, where the champagne is flat, the takes are spicy, and the butts remain undefeated.This week, Dr. Carlton and Dangilo ease you into the New Year the only way they know how: with questionable emails and a new segment. We kick things off with a Booty Caller who has an STI testing question that spirals quickly into “am I doing this right or just confidently wrong?” territory. Then, a Booty Gangster writes in wondering whether his attraction is authentic… or accidentally offensive. (Spoiler: intention matters, but so does listening.)Things really heat up at the “Horse Market–sized.” Two hot dads, one inbox, and more context than anyone asked for—but we read it anyway, because of course we did.The guys also recap the holidays and ring in the New Year . Then—because the internet is a cursed place—Dr. Carlton and Dangilo unpack the U.S. government's list of the 25 worst things stuck up people's bums in 2025. Educational? No. Memorable? Unfortunately, yes.Plus, the debut of a brand-new segment: “69 and a Half Foot Pole,”We wrap it all up with the Love Language of the Week, because after all that… everyone deserves a little tenderness.New year. Same podcast. Same warning: listen responsibly.

COVID pulled supply chains out of the background and into daily life. What used to feel abstract suddenly determined whether shelves were stocked, prices stayed stable, or businesses survived at all. In this conversation, Kerim Kfuri breaks down how global supply chains actually work, why the old “lowest cost at all costs” logic is outdated, and how disruption has reshaped manufacturing, trade, and strategy worldwide.We explore the shift from just-in-time efficiency to just-in-case resilience, challenge the idea that globalization is primarily exploitation, and explain why visibility, redundancy, and optionality now matter more than unit price. We also dive into tariffs, debt, leverage, inflation, and the uncomfortable truth: every attempt to “fix” supply chains shows up in consumers' wallets.This isn't about ideology or slogans. It's about fundamentals—survivability, relevance, and designing systems that can absorb shocks without breaking.TL;DR* Supply chains aren't boring—they're the infrastructure of modern life.* Cost is no longer king; resilience, visibility, and flexibility are.* “Just in time” failed under real stress; “just in case” is the new survival model.* Globalization today is about capability, not exploitation.* Tariffs and inflation are hidden taxes consumers always end up paying.* Long-term business success depends on survivability, not quarterly optics.Memorable lines* “Supply chains used to be invisible—until they broke.”* “Cost is the last variable now, not the first.”* “Relevance is what makes supply chains sexy.”* “You don't notice the wiring in the wall until the power goes out.”GuestKerim Kfuri — President & CEO, Atlas NetworkGlobal supply chain strategist focused on resilience, efficiency, and disruption-ready systems.Why this mattersIf you want businesses—and economies—that last, stop optimizing for perfect conditions and start designing for disruption.

Photo: Youth royalty from the Colorado River Indian Tribes stamp the Ireichō – or Book of Names – in Parker, Ariz. on October 25, 2025. (Gabriel Pietrorazio / KJZZ) The internment of Japanese Americans during World War II is among the chapters of U.S. history that the Trump administration is actively working to erase. It is part of a sweeping campaign to remove so-called “disparaging” signs and markers of the country's past and focus only on “American greatness”. In the final installment of his series on the camps, KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio visits the Colorado River Indian Tribes (CRIT) to see how others are making sure victims are highlighted in – not erased from – the history books. Inside a strip mall owned by the tribe, hundreds flock to its museum in Parker, Ariz. Director Valerie Welsh-Tahbo says her space used to be an old swimwear shop. Tucked in one teal-hued corner is an exhibit dedicated to the Poston camp's 18,000 internees. “This was already up here, this structure in this store and I said, ‘Let's hang onto this … just because of where it was situated, and that design, it just spawned that idea.” To honor Poston's past. another way the museum is paying respect is by welcoming Soto Zen Buddhist priest Duncan Ryūken Williams and his Ireichō. “Chō, chō means like a book or a registry, and so we created a book with everybody's names in it, and said, ‘How do we honor everyone?' And we came up with this idea of stamping or placing this mark under people's names.” The Japanese word Irei essentially means “to console the spirits”, and that's what Wiliams hopes his book does by bringing forth personhood and dignity – one name at a time. “A lot of government camp rosters mangle Japanese names, and so we can't honor people if their names are misspelled.” And their goal? “To make sure all 125,284 people whose names are printed in this book get at least one mark of acknowledgement.” There's still 30,000 names unmarked, but Williams has a plan. “We'll just systematically, from the beginning of the book, invite the general public to come and place a mark under the next name in the sequence of names that doesn't yet have a mark.” “I think this person – Hisayo Kotsubo – does not yet have a stamp. She's born in the year 1897 so if I could ask you to just place this stamp right under the letter H.” Their blue-tipped stamp is no bigger than your thumb. Some even practiced that art of dotting with Susan Kamei. “It's a personal story.” Her parents, grandparents, and one set of great-grandparents were internees. Her dad's side was brought to Poston, while her mom's ended up in Heart Mountain, Wyo. “I try to put myself in their shoes.” 84-year-old Janet Brothers doesn't have to imagine, because she lived it. “I was here at camp as a baby. I was six months old … feeling the heat, looking around, and seeing the desert and the mountains, knowing that's what my parents saw every day, was very emotional for me.” The National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) is remembering the life of former U.S. Sen. Ben Nighthorse Campbell (Northern Cheyenne/R-CO), who died Tuesday at age 92. NCAI President Mark Macarro in a statement said Campbell broke barriers and left a path for those who seek to follow as leaders in Indian Country and in America. Sen. Campbell is being remembered for his work on Indian policy and elevating Indian Country issues, serving on the U.S. Senate Committee on Indian Affairs. The Associated Press reports, his daughter said Campbell died of natural causes surround by family. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily. Sign up for our daily newsletter today.

As the year wraps, Rob Lawrence welcomes back the “EMS Avenger” Jimmy Apple for a fast-moving, end-of-year pulse check on the EMS universe — through the lens of social media, research and what frontline clinicians are actually saying when the mic is on and the comments are open. Building on last week's data-and-trends conversation , this episode pivots into “the world according to Jimmy Apple” and his alter ego, the EMS Avenger, exploring what's made providers lean in, push back or flat-out declare “enough is enough.” | SHARE YOUR STORY: A call for real stories from the EMS field, station and beyond From burnout and workforce conditions to AI-assisted ECG interpretation and the rise of microlearning, the conversation lands on a central theme: the future of EMS isn't just protocols — it's people, technology and how we choose to learn, adapt and debate. Jimmy also names his “paper of the year” on spinal immobilization, explains how he handles disagreement without falling into “quicksand arguments,” and previews a packed 2026 speaking calendar — plus a relaunch of his podcast. Memorable quotes “If we can just verify that you're retaining the information, that's much more important than the veracity of how long it took you to get that information.” — Jimmy Apple “You can catch more flies with honey than you can with vinegar.” — Jimmy Apple “That's the future; is that literally, we're going to swipe it, absorb it and swipe away again.” — Rob Lawrence “My paper of the year is the paper that was published on spinal mobilization … It does not support the use of backboards as anything other than an extrication tool.” — Jimmy Apple “I think that a big push that I'm making this year is to really start talking about the EMS provider as the person.” — Jimmy Apple Episode timeline 00:56 — Rob welcomes listeners, references year-in-review data and notes ambulance thefts continue to trend. 01:38 — Rob brings Jimmy back and asks for a quick summary of Jimmy's year and growing reach, and the top themes Jimmy has seen. 04:12 — Jimmy identifies provider conditions and mindset as the dominant theme and describes discussion of collapse/collapsing systems. 06:12 — Jimmy explains social media as the pulse point and highlights burnout, anger and provider frustration. 06:52 — Jimmy pivots to technology's growing role and EMS resistance to tech encroachment in practice. 07:23 — Rob connects the tech thread to conference observations (Axon, AI). Jimmy gives examples (AI 12-lead, apps) and argues tech advancement shouldn't be rejected due to “skill deterioration” fears. 09:34 — Rob asks Jimmy's “how do you explain complex concepts quickly?” Jimmy uses the Michelangelo anecdote to describe stripping concepts to essentials; critiques padded, time-gated education. 12:29 — Jimmy argues for education credit models that recognize microlearning and self-directed learning if retention can be verified. 14:04 — Rob asks for standout research; Jimmy discusses RSI/induction agent considerations, pressors debate and prehospital antibiotics. 16:47 — Rob and Jimmy preview NAEMSP's annual meeting (“research Disney”), value of posters, networking and clinical depth. 18:26 — Jimmy names spinal immobilization evidence review as his “paper of the year” and explains its conclusions. 21:36 — Rob asks how Jimmy handles disagreement/detractors with a larger platform — Jimmy describes disagreement as healthy, focuses on respectful pushback and staying anchored in data. 29:00 — Final question: Jimmy emphasizes “provider as person,” healing the clinician and a sponsored podcast relaunch in January.

For decades, leadership meant position: titles, layers, authority flowing downward. That model survived generations of management theory—but AI is dismantling it faster than most organizations realize. As automation absorbs middle management functions and teams flatten, leadership no longer comes from the org chart. It emerges from trust, psychological safety, and the ability to guide without control.Cedric and I explore how leadership is shifting from ladder to lattice, why younger generations demand clarity without micromanagement, and how learning, unlearning, and relearning have become survival skills—not growth perks. We dig into why performance without empathy burns people out, why transparency matters more than trust alone, and how leaders who can regulate themselves create teams that move faster, experiment more, and fail forward without fear.The takeaway isn't that leadership disappears—it evolves. From command-and-control to influence-without-authority. From perfection to iteration. From managing people to creating environments where people lead themselves.No nostalgia. No AI panic. Just a grounded roadmap for leaders navigating the post-AI reality.TL;DR* Hierarchy is eroding: AI collapses management layers—leadership becomes informal and horizontal.* Position ≠ influence: Future leaders are followed by choice, not title.* Ladder → lattice: Careers move sideways before up; growth isn't linear anymore.* Empathy scales performance: Psychological safety drives speed, creativity, and retention.* Learn–unlearn–relearn: AI shortens the cycle; leaders must evolve faster than systems.* Clarity creates confidence: Context + expectations beat control every time.* Transparency > trust: Explaining the why builds deeper alignment than directives.* Failure is data: Teams grow when mistakes don't equal punishment.Memorable lines* “Leadership doesn't disappear when hierarchy fades—it becomes visible.”* “AI removes managers, not the need for leadership.”* “Clarity builds confidence; confusion builds fear.”* “Trust tells people what—transparency tells them why.”* “You can't automate empathy—but you can scale it through culture.”GuestCedric B.

“I become a bit of a depresso-goblin when I live alone.”So shares one of my housemates -- an eloquent interpretation, perhaps, of the loneliness episode we're living through, according to the US Surgeon General.We all know that loneliness sucks. Among other things, it elevates risk of heart disease, stroke, dementia, depression, and anxiety (among other health concerns).So what do we do about it? According to the Pew Research Center, around 40% of adults are un-partnered, and a recent CNN article states that close to 30% of all US households are folks living on their own. Add to this the gig economy and an increased prevalence of workplaces that are entirely online, and you've got a major societal issue.Living in community is one way of coming together, having more fun, getting more practical support, and strengthening the overall social fabric of your life.Here, I get personal. I myself live in a coliving situation with six other friends. In this episode we delve into questions like:What was your life like before living in community, and what motivated you to seek out a community living situation?Anything you were hesitant about when it came to living in community?What needs of yours are met by living in community? What challenges have you found in it?How has living in community impacted your love relationship (if you're in one)? What advice do you have for others who are considering living in community?---Memorable quotes:“It seemed like a good healthy risk.”“I don't have coworkers, so the vast majority of my sustaining social connection comes from this house.”“It's special to have built-in friends.”“One hesitation for me was that everything wasn't going to be accessible to me 100% of the time in exactly the way I'd want.”“Living with people helps me with being open to receiving.”“It's more isolating when you're living in a home with just your partner.”“It's great having that space to be received and seen by others.”“It requires vulnerability and communication.”“It's very lively!”“A better version of me lives when I live in community.” ---Mentioned on this episode:Nesterly: Share a home with someone you can trust for over 1 month stays.

Hey, Heal Squad! For Christmas week, we're throwing it back to two of our favorite conversations from the year, and this one with Hannah Brown felt especially worth revisiting as we reflect, reset, and prepare for what's next. In this throwback, Hannah shares the parts of her journey that happened far beyond the spotlight. She opens up about navigating PCOS, chronic inflammation, hormonal challenges, and the emotional toll of living in constant pressure and survival mode. From being dismissed by doctors to feeling disconnected from her body, Hannah walks us through the moment her body finally demanded deeper attention, PLUS how healing began when she stopped pushing and started listening. As the year winds down, let this episode be a grounding reminder that real change often starts quietly… with awareness, compassion, and the willingness to release old patterns before stepping into the next chapter.

Shukri reviews Netflix's documentary, Elway. The film covers the life and career of John Elway.
Back in January 2020, Rufus sat down with Priya Parker — a conflict resolution specialist who's worked on peace processes around the world — to talk about her book The Art of Gathering. What she told him changed how we think about every dinner party, every work meeting, every family get-together we host. Priya's argument is simple but radical. She says most of our gatherings fail because we focus on the wrong things. We obsess over the menu, the playlist. And we ignore the one question we should be asking: Why are we bringing these people together? With the right answer to that question, she says, you can turn any gathering into something meaningful — maybe even transformative.

Episode 285 A morning run brings one word back to the surface: Believe. In this episode, I share why that word became more than inspiration in our home. It became a decision. Between my wife Olivia's esophageal cancer journey and my mom's Alzheimer's dementia progression, belief stopped being an idea and started becoming a daily practice. I also share the moment I realized time was the real urgency, and why I chose to step away from a career I loved to build a life rhythm that made room for the people I love most. What you'll hear in this episode Why “Believe” is not decor, it is a decision How uncertainty can test your mind and your heart The difference between hope and action The phrase that changed my year: “Believe it to see it” A simple practice to move forward when the roadmap is not clear Key message Belief is not pretending. Belief is choosing. Belief is action before proof. The “Believe” practice (takeaway) Name what you want in one sentence Name the fear underneath it Choose one proof step you can take in the next 24 hours Examples of proof steps: one email, one conversation, one appointment, one calendar decision, one first draft. Memorable lines (pull quotes) “That sign is not decor for us. It has been a decision.” “Belief became a crossroads.” “Sometimes the clarity comes after the courage.” “Time is not something you earn back later.” “Believe it to see it.” Reflection prompts for the listener Where are you waiting for certainty before you move What would you choose if regret was not an option What is one proof step you can take in the next 24 hours Suggested timestamps (edit after recording) 00:00 The run and the word “Believe” 01:00 Olivia's diagnosis and the season of waiting 02:30 My mom's decline and the reality of time 04:00 The crossroads and the decision to step away 05:15 The Believe practice you can use today Gentle disclaimer This episode is personal storytelling and mindset encouragement, not medical advice. Call to action If this episode connects with you, share it with someone who is carrying a heavy season. And if you try the Believe practice, send me the one proof step you chose.

After an 18-year rise through corporate HR—from recruiter to group president across Canada and the U.S.—Dom walked away from a “safe” executive career to build something on his own terms. In this conversation, we unpack why large organizations quietly trade momentum for bureaucracy, how technology and automation empower lean founders, and why “stability” often comes at the cost of creativity, speed, and meaning.We explore intrapreneurship vs. entrepreneurship, the hidden traps of bloated systems, and how founders can use data, automation, and open APIs to move faster without burning capital. The throughline isn't rebellion—it's agency. Building work that's fun, aligned, and alive again.No anti-corporate rant. Just lived experience, hard trade-offs, and a clear-eyed look at what it really takes to step off the stable path—and thrive.TL;DR* Stability is conditional: Corporate safety disappears the moment priorities shift.* Intrapreneur vs. founder: Big-company success doesn't equal personal leverage.* Tech as leverage: Automation and BI (not hype AI) unlock speed for lean teams.* Systems can trap you: CRMs and ERPs either enable growth—or become prisons.* Innovation dies slowly: Bureaucracy rewards optics over outcomes.* Work-life blend > balance: Fun, purpose-driven work creates sustainability.* Momentum matters: Small teams with clarity outperform slow giants.Memorable lines* “Stability often costs more than risk—you just don't see the bill right away.”* “Big systems don't fail fast. They fail quietly.”* “AI isn't magic—it's leverage if you know what problem you're solving.”* “Careers don't collapse overnight; they stall one approval layer at a time.”* “Fun isn't a perk—it's fuel.”GuestDominic Levesque — HR executive turned founder; CEO of NextWave; author and advisor on leadership, technology, and organizational transformation.
How do you know if you're addicted to porn?Instead of addiction language, some mental health specialists use the term Problematic Porn Use to discuss this. The heart of it is the same, however: How do I stop watching porn? (and why is it so freakin' hard to stop using porn??)Here we delve into the topic, but not from a shame-based point of view. Instead we look at the underlying needs that are met by porn use -- and how to move beyond it.The truth is that this is a complex and intricate subject. It's not as simple or easy as "just stop" -- and whether it's an outside force or your own inner critic saying this, it's simply not helpful (and often damaging).As with many things in life, the truth is, as Jason puts it: “You CAN do this. You just can't do it alone.”---Work with usReady to go deeper than the podcast and take action? Jason and I can help you break old patterns and transform your sex & love life for good.

Episode 1903: Michael Mehlberg shares three unconventional yet impactful holiday gift ideas that foster genuine appreciation among employees. Instead of impersonal gestures, these thoughtful approaches, like donating to charity together, offering surprise time off, and paying for meaningful extra work, create lasting memories and stronger team loyalty.
