My wife Joy is a creature of habit. She has a rule. After Thanksgiving, nobody goes to a restaurant for breakfast, lunch, or dinner until every single piece of Thanksgiving food is gone. Magically, it always lasts right through Sunday evening. One year we went to someone else's house for Thanksgiving. Joy brought leftovers home. The next day she went to the store, came back, and started cooking. I'm thinking you've been cooking for days. You brought leftovers home. What are you cooking? She said she's cooking leftovers. She purchased a small turkey and all the ingredients to keep her routine for the weekend. Featured Story I wanted a dog that looked good in my Jeep. Got an Australian Shepherd named Levi because Border Collies are crazy and Aussies are just stubborn. Turns out I should've gotten the crazy dog because the stubborn one is exactly like his dad. I made rookie mistakes training Levi. One day my trainer said something that changed everything. For a dog, one time means all the time. Every time you let them do something new, they're just going to keep doing it. That applies to more than dogs. Joi schedules everything. I literally schedule a spontaneous Saturday date for her. I tell my wife to put in her predictable routine that we're going to be spontaneous on Saturday so she's okay with it. Don't surprise her. A couple years ago we went elsewhere for Thanksgiving and Joy had a real problem. She has a routine. When a certain time of year comes, she gets the recipes out and does the thing. Now she's not doing the thing. The look on her face when I figured out what she was doing. Cheating leftovers. She was lying to me about leftovers. Important Points For a dog, one time means all the time, and that principle applies to building habits and routines in your own life too. What makes you happy might seem crazy to someone else, but if it brings you joy, just do what you do. Respecting other people's routines and quirks is easier when you understand they need those patterns to be happy. Memorable Quotes "For a dog, one time means all the time. Every time you let him do something new, they're just going to keep doing it." "I literally schedule a spontaneous Saturday date for her. She has to know we're going to be spontaneous on Saturday." "Do leftovers make you happy? What makes you happy? Do what you do. Just do what you do." Scott's Three-Step Approach Understand that consistency creates happiness for some people, even if their routines seem excessive to you. Figure out what actually makes you happy and build those patterns into your life without apology. If you're married to someone with strong routines, just go with it and maybe hide half the Thanksgiving food so everyone gets leftovers.

If I told you just five words, it is a spy film, your mind would go to either action packed or maybe campy. Would you really think about a psychological thriller? And if I told you the film won a prestigious French award for best first film, how does it sound when the director says he made a foreign film? Contradictions abound with my guest Jonathan Millet's film, GHOST TRAIL (2024). One thing it is in any description is a cinematic gem. Currently streaming on Mubi, it expands the genre in ways you won't see coming. And the absolute best part? The director is even more interesting than the film.In this episode, Jonathan and I talk about:what it was like winning the Louis Delluc Prize for Best First Film in 2024;his traveling to 50 countries and how he learned he was good at filmmaking;what he noticed about cinema in each country and French cinema-going;how GHOST TRAIL came about and why it was originally envisioned as a documentary;what he wants people to know before watching the film;why he never showed torture in the film and how he created a film with such depth;how he created a playable video game to be incorporated into the film (!);the crazy distribution process and whether it came up whether he needed to add action to the film;how he found such a capable actor in Adam Bessa, who had to plausibly be a spy, English professor, and torture victim in the film;his research process for making a spy film;France's reaction to the film;is France a great place for filmmaking?how important it was for him that GHOST TRAIL is viewed as a foreign film;what's next for him;how he feels about the pace of making new films.Memorable Quotes:"All the masters, the big directors I loved at this time as a classical, for example, they all arrived in cinema with another background. They all study something else and they bring it to cinemas.""And they were looking for remote countries in war countries with trouble. And I was looking for it as well. So it was my screwup cinema actually.""What I really love is to consider a film as an experience.""The best co-writer for the film was reality.""My producer said it would be cheaper to do that than buy Call of Duty rights.""The editor of GHOST TRAIL is also the editor of ANATOMY OF A FALL (2023). And he's a great editor and he say I need time. It's not about being slow, it's just that if I have 10 weeks to edit a movie, I could do it, but if I have 20 weeks, I could try things and maybe some incredible outstanding idea will appear. Jonathan's Indie Film Highlights: LA LIBERTAD (2001) dir. by Lisandro AlonsoLinks:Watch GHOST TRAIL (2024) on MUBISupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

Is there a better titled film in the history of the medium than DID YOU REMEMBER THE CAT (2025)? I'd argue no. It gives you an idea of what it's about -- remembering a cat. The title suggests comedy (it's a mix of comedy, drama, and horror). And it's something you'll never forget as a film title. Perfection.That's the kind of thought process my guest, filmmaker Daniel Foster, has put into all of his films, and he has such fantastic advice on filmmaking, festivals, crowdfunding, making short films, and more.Happy Halloween. I can't think of a better person and film to spend it with than Daniel and that awesomely titled film, now streaming on Alter's YouTube channel.In this episode, Daniel and I discuss:do we see the cat in DID YOU REMEMBER THE CAT? YES!;how he got started in filmmaking, including film school at Temple University;are filmmaking labs a good alternative to film school?;what constitutes a bad film?what he's learned from each of the films he's made;how did they come up with the beyond brilliant title: DID YOU REMEMBER THE CAT?horror's role as the ultimate big-tent genre;where he got his encyclopedic knowledge of indie films;how accurate his crowdfunding campaign was and what lessons he took away for it;why he was successful on his first day of crowdfunding;why the film was released on Alter and during spooky season;what's next for him;how he comes up with titles and his critiques for short films.Daniel's Indie Film Highlight: feathers, not wings, currently crowdfunding on Kickstarter.Memorable Quotes:"Of course watching movies is the best way to learn, but specifically to watch bad movies. To learn and then analyze like, why is this bad?" "So it's always lure people in with comedy, keep them paying attention with the horror, and then hit them with the message whether it's a gut punch or a little heartfelt like we were going for with, DID YOU REMEMBER THE CAT?""I'm a fan of statement titles. I wanted it to be something that somebody would say in the theater.""My goal and my co-writers goal to make this a film that you would turn on every Halloween and have a fun time with, we wanted it to be a crowd pleaser."About reading the reviews: "I have a incredibly supportive fiance, so sometimes when they get to me, she turns on a spooky movie and makes us some chai tea and we just relax. But no, for the most part, I love like reading the reviews because I have to grow. I have to get better. Some of the critiques that I've gotten have been super helpful in what I'm hoping to do next.""I definitely think if you are able to have your short be between like 10 to 12 minutes is the preferred.""So I think for other shorts, if there's something else like it, there's comps that you can have and that's fine, but when the comps are so similar to what you're trying to do and there isn't anything, a new angle in it, I always think just go back to the drawing board."Links:Watch DID YOU REMEMBER THE CAT?Follow Daniel On InstagramSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

 “Why don't guys ever ask for the details?” That's the question that kicks off this laugh-out-loud episode of The JB and Sandy Show, where Sandy, JB, and Trisha dive deep into the hilarious differences between how men and women communicate—and what those differences reveal about us all. From Sandy's viral Instagram clip about men's “need-to-know” approach to life, to Trisha's passionate plea for more curiosity, the hosts unpack why guys seem content with headlines while women crave the full story. JB shares his own experience of catching up with old friends, joking that he needs AI to summarize their conversations because, “We just cover 30 topics in an hour, but never the details!” The episode takes a playful turn as the trio launches into their signature segment: “That's All I Need to Know About You.” Listeners will love the rapid-fire judgments—like JB's take on people who leave grocery carts in the parking lot (“Society would collapse if everyone was like you!”), Trisha's ban on truck nuts and Calvin stickers, and Sandy's hilarious observations about man buns, gym selfies, and specialty license plates.Memorable Quotes & Moments:“Girls read the whole article. Guys just want the summary.”“If you purposely make your car crazy loud, I need you to go away.”“Anytime someone says ‘You got it, boss,' I hear that. He's been in the penitentiary.”“If you've got more than three bumper stickers, I know everything I need to know about you.” Why Listen?If you've ever wondered why your partner doesn't ask follow-up questions, or if you secretly judge people by their bumper stickers, this episode is for you. It's relatable, witty, and packed with moments that will have you nodding along—or laughing out loud. Call to Action:Loved this episode?

“Another sign is not the answer—it dilutes the message.” - Corinn Soro Today on the pod, Cheryl sits down—virtually—with Senior Planner and Interior Designer Corinn Soro of Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in Buffalo, NY for a deep dive into wayfinding that actually works: why “visual pollution” erodes attention, how de-crapification clarifies intent, and where evidence-based choices can transform the patient journey from disorientation to ease.  Expect real examples—subway-style maps that set expectations at a glance, pictograms that land when words won't, and donor walls designed to evolve rather than date out—plus the small, cumulative tweaks that lower stress for visitors and staff alike.  Today's conversation is about design as reassurance, translating research into decisions that cut through noise and hand back control the moment someone walks through the door. What We Cover A 17-year-old's spark: geriatric care, neuroplasticity, and the built environment London roots: learning research methods alongside OTs and PTs; universal design for all bodies Evidence-Based Design in action: NICU decisions (sound, circadian light, infection control) backed by research “Visual pollution” vs. visual cues: the case for ruthless editing (“de-crapification”) before adding signs Wayfinding that works under stress: step-by-step instructions, few decision points, and reassurance cues Designing for low literacy: a color-and-letter “subway” system, line-of-travel markers, and proximity intuition Pictograms that actually communicate: testing, swapping out abstractions, and kid-friendly icons Measuring ROI: missed appointments, staff disruptions, and the real cost of poor wayfinding In-house rhythm at a research hospital: tight feedback loops, quick iterations, and process fixes Donor walls that age well: digital storytelling, magnetic plaques, and durable substrates Advocacy and pipeline: AMFP Upstate NY, craft labor realities, and manufacturing shifts ahead Big wish list: self-cleaning floors (for hospitals…and home) Why post-occupancy evaluations could prevent future design disasters (and why they rarely happen) Key Takeaways Edit before you add. Wayfinding succeeds when clutter is removed and destinations are made legible through architecture, lighting, and contrast—not just more signs. Design for the stressed brain. Fewer decision points + stepwise reassurance beat complex directions every time. Evidence accelerates approvals. EBD turns subjective taste debates into science-backed decisions leadership can green-light. Symbols > sentences. Tested pictograms improve comprehension across languages, ages, and literacy levels. Iterate in the wild. Being embedded with clinicians and patients surfaces quick wins you'll never catch from afar. Memorable Quotes from Corinn Soro “Another sign isn't the answer—it dilutes the message.” “Wayfinding is about giving choice back to patients when so much else is out of their control.” “If a space is ‘too quiet' for the engineer, it's probably just right for the neonates.” “Healthcare design is a team sport.” Resources & Links Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center — https://www.roswellpark.org/ AMFP Upstate New York Chapter — https://amfp.org/upstate-new-york Fiona Finer, the Interior Designer (ages 3–8) — https://www.amazon.com/Fiona-Finer-Interior-Designer-Corinn/dp/1720664889 EDAC Certification (Evidence-Based Design) — https://www.healthdesign.org/certification-outreach/edac Hablamos Juntos pictograms — https://www.theicod.org/resources/news-archive/segd-and-hablamos-juntos-introduce-new-universal-symbols-in-health-care Sisters of Charity Hospital (Buffalo, NY) — NICU project mentioned — https://www.chsbuffalo.org/sisters-of-charity-hospital/ Past HID2.0 episode featuring Tama Duffy Day — Episode 20 https://healthcareidpodcast.libsyn.com/2019/09 Connect with Corinn Soro Email: corinn.soro@roswellpark.org LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/corinn-soro-14859ab/ Our Industry Partners The world is changing quickly.

Let's unpack this, did you know that hundreds of preeminent members of The American Institute of Architects –  The AIA – have signed the AIA Materials Pledge? The Pledge is aligned with the Mindful Materials Common Materials Framework – the CMF. This is just one, very impressive example of how the movement to support decision making for building product selection has reached new highs. We can see these explained as 5 pillars of sustainability: (The first) - Human Health: Focusing on avoiding hazardous substances and promoting well-being. (Then) - Social Health & Equity: Addressing human rights and fair labor practices throughout the supply chain. (The third) is Ecosystem Health: Supporting the regeneration of natural resources and habitats. (This is followed by) Climate Health: Reducing and sequestering carbon emissions. (And the fifth pillar) is The Circular Economy: Promoting a zero-waste future through design for resilience, adaptability, and reuse. I mentioned the receipts -How do we track the progress of these principles and values? Without measurement, there's no clear path to improvement or accountability. The Mindful Materials CMF maps a framework of over 650 sustainability factors across those five key areas. A cornerstone of material health transparency is an Environmental Product Declaration EPD report. The best are independently verified for accuracy by third party certification bodies – a company cannot mark their own report cards. EPDs are highly technical documents containing scientific information on the embodied carbon used to manufacture products. I have just read and included here an EPD for a Porcelanosa Tile – there are upwards of 1000 data inputs to quantify its climate impact. Porcelanosa offer the confidence and certainty of knowing that every tile, every slab of XTONE porcelain or KRION solid surface  has a Product Specific EPD – when architects and designers work with these materials they are making a robust decision to meet their sustainable design goals. To learn more about how Porcelanosa help their customers design for resiliency, here is a link to their comprehensive Corporate Social Responsibility Report: https://www.porcelanosa.com/en/corporate-social-responsibility/

Episode Description “If you don't take risks, will you always work for someone who did?” That's the thought-provoking question Kent Hance opens with, setting the stage for an episode packed with wisdom, heartfelt tributes, and classic Texas storytelling. In this episode, Kent Hance reflects on Warren Buffett's philosophy of risk-taking, weaving in personal anecdotes and sharp observations about how political landscapes have shifted over the decades. Listeners are treated to Kent's unique perspective on business, politics, and the importance of taking chances—whether in the boardroom or in everyday life. The episode takes a poignant turn as Kent shares the moving story of Gage Ingram, a Texas Tech graduate and Navy SEAL who made the ultimate sacrifice. Kent's tribute to Gage and his family is a powerful reminder of the courage and commitment found in communities across Texas. The episode also honors Sarah House, another Texas Tech alum whose life was tragically cut short, underscoring the fragility of life and the importance of community support. But it wouldn't be a Kent Hance podcast without a dose of humor and the unexpected.

Notable Quotes & Moments: “If you don't take risks, you will always work for someone who took risks.” Kent's heartfelt tribute: “There are young people all over this world doing dangerous things that we don't know about. They're trying to keep us safe.” On police work: “Not everybody should be a police officer. You have to have the right temperament.” The Pop-Tart story and Seinfeld's upcoming movie—dessert for breakfast, anyone? “Don't wear stupid t-shirts to court and don't try to rob the jail.” Themes & Insights: The value of risk-taking in life and business Shifts in political ideologies and their real-world impact Honoring service and sacrifice in the military and local communities The importance of defensive driving and staying safe The lighter side of human folly and the lessons it brings Call to Action: Did a story resonate with you?

In this powerful episode, Heather Creekmore continues October’s "Fear Free Fall” series by digging deep into the often-hidden fear of rejection and how it influences our lives. She unpacks how perfectionism and people-pleasing are tightly related to our need to feel accepted and loved. Through personal stories, relatable examples, and biblical truth, Heather unravels the underlying self-protective strategies we adopt—and how the gospel offers real freedom and grace. Key Topics Covered: What is the Fear of Rejection?Heather explores how this fear drives us and manifests as perfectionism and people-pleasing. She explains that these are self-protective strategies formed by our desire for secure love, belonging, and worth. Perfectionism:Often, we think, “If I get it right, then I’ll be enough.” Heather shares a personal story from college when a single missed typo made her feel immense shame, showing how perfectionism can lead to exhaustion and shame rather than peace. People-Pleasing:The fear that “If I make everyone happy, I’ll be safe.” Heather discusses how people-pleasing is not true peacekeeping or biblical peacemaking and how it can even impact our ability to follow God’s call if the opinions of others control us. Where Does This Come From?Heather highlights how these tendencies usually aren’t intentional—they’re often formed in childhood, at school, or through life experiences that taught us we’d be safer if we kept everyone happy or never made mistakes. How It Affects Others:Unchecked, perfectionism and people-pleasing can also lead us to have unrealistic expectations of others, continuing the cycle for those around us. The Gospel’s Answer:True freedom is found not in earning love and acceptance from people (or God), but in embracing grace. Heather reminds us that Jesus took on ultimate rejection so we can be fully accepted by God, no matter how we perform. A Challenge to Listeners:Heather encourages us to check our motives—are we striving for approval from people or resting in God’s approval? She challenges listeners to shift their perspective from a “people-big, God-small” view to a “God-big, people-small” mindset for greater confidence and peace. Memorable Quotes: “Perfectionism is a fear of inadequacy dressed up as excellence.” “People pleasing is not biblical peacemaking—it’s a form of self-protection.” “You can never be perfect or please everyone, but you are already fully accepted in Jesus.” “Freedom comes when you realize you can’t earn grace—it's a gift.” Resources & Next Steps: Visit heathercreekmore.com for free resources, courses, coaching, and Heather’s books Sign up for the free 10-day encouragement email series!
