SUMMARY In this episode, Guro Mike Williams explores the deep connections within the martial arts community, discussing his journey from a family background in martial arts to his experiences training overseas. He delves into the importance of cross-training, the sense of safety and belonging found among martial artists, and the appreciation for the hard work that goes into mastering any art form. The conversation highlights the unique experiences that come with being part of the martial arts world, emphasizing the value of community and shared passion.   In this conversation, Guro Mike discusses the nuances of martial arts training, emphasizing the importance of understanding the reality of self-defense, the role of playfulness in practice, and the significance of character over skill. He explores the concept of redefining success in confrontations, the necessity of training for panic situations, and the value of public demonstrations, also highlighting the benefits of short, frequent training sessions and the balance of mind, body, and spirit in martial arts practice.   Guro Mike also discusses the importance of maintaining strength and health through martial arts, regardless of age, emphasizing the value of solo training, the holistic benefits of martial arts, and the significance of building a strong foundation in various techniques. The discussion also touches on the community aspect of martial arts and the joy of blending different styles and techniques. He concludes with reflections on the journey of martial arts training and the importance of appreciating the teachings of past masters. TAKEAWAYS Traveling for training offers unique insights into different cultures. Cross-training is valuable but requires dedication to maintain quality. Understanding martial arts is like learning a new language. Success in a confrontation is about not getting hurt. Training should prepare you for panic situations. Demos help simulate the stress of real confrontations. Short, frequent training sessions are more effective. Character is more important than skill in martial arts. Age does not define strength or capability. Martial arts offer holistic benefits beyond just combat. Every form in martial arts has its own system and depth. Building a strong foundation is crucial for martial arts practitioners. It's important to blend techniques from different martial arts. To connect with Guro Williams: www.combatkali.com

Join us as we uncover which policies might truly impact your business—and what you need to know before election day!Episode OverviewIn this timely episode of The Texas Real Estate and Finance Podcast, we tackle the hot topic of the 2024 presidential election and its potential impact on real estate.

Whether you're an agent, investor, or loan officer, gain valuable insights into how this election could reshape the real estate industry.Key TakeawaysThe Reality of Affordable Housing PromisesMichael Williams discusses why sweeping federal affordable housing programs often fail due to complex local regulations and red tape. He highlights the challenge of aligning federal funding with state-level incentives to boost housing supply effectively.Down Payment Assistance Programs: Do They Work?We explore Kamala Harris's proposal for $25,000 in down payment assistance for first-time homebuyers. Williams explains how this type of assistance could increase demand but won't solve supply issues, potentially driving prices even higher.The Limits of Deregulation in Real EstateWilliams shares his view on Trump's deregulation promises, explaining why federal deregulation might not make a noticeable difference in housing supply, as zoning regulations are largely determined at the state and local levels.Systemic Challenges to Housing Policy ImplementationBoth Williams and Mills highlight the logistical and structural hurdles in implementing long-term housing policies, noting how temporary political goals often overshadow the sustained efforts needed for real change.Why Your Vote Matters in Housing PolicyWith a deep dive into how policies affect everyday housing, Williams stresses that Realtor and consumer participation in elections is essential for driving policies that prioritize real estate issues.

Even though The Blair Witch Project didn't invent the genre, it's probably the best-known and the biggest hit of all the found footage movies. The online marketing campaign was especially revolutionary. It's a shame that Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sanchez never hit these heights again as writers or directors, but they got so much mileage out of their made-up story, considering it was mostly improvised by the then-unknown Heather Donahue, Joshua Leonard and Michael Williams. The unresolved mystery takes a lot of heat for its ambiguity, yet Ryan's one-man show talks about how haunting the whole thing still feels 25 years later. This 621st edition of Have You Ever Seen also talks a lot about who or what might have caused these 3 to disappear. So face the wall on this penultimate day of both October and of Scary Movie Month as this episode tries to figure out the horrific deal in The Blair Witch Project. Additional note: both the fake documentary "The Curse Of The Blair Witch" and the 2016 "Blair Witch" have been rewatched since recording this podcast. The "doc" is indeed very effective and even quite eerie. And while the 2016 sequel has its moments, Adam Wingard is WAY too reliant on jump scares and loud shock moments to bother building the dread the original Blair Witch did.

Former Florida police investigator James Byrd-Williams, Sr. recounts the story of his son's murder in 2020. 44-year-old Michael Williams was an African-American man living in the mostly White college town of Grinnell, Iowa, to be near his ex-wife and kids. Occurring just weeks after the George Floyd incident, Michael Williams' body was found strangled and burned in a ditch outside of town. Three people were later convicted.J.B. expresses his frustration with the thoroughness of the investigation and the fact that officials and the NAACP—eager to avoid any media attention of the type recently seen in Minneapolis—denied it was a hate crime, and avoided the word 'lynching' in describing the homicide. UK newspaper The Guardian asked, “When is a lynching a lynching?”   Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

In July of 1999 they were a crucial part of a film that lit up the box office, challenged the rules of conventional story telling, and impacted culture all over the world. 25 years later their true story is told. THE MOVIE CRYPT's special roundtable series continues with this fascinating, heartbreaking, and inspiring conversation with actors Joshua Leonard and Michael Williams from THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT - one of the most profitable indie films ever made. Though this roundtable was originally being developed to discuss the taboo subject of “Hollywood Accounting,” the focus sharpened after Adam Green found himself at a front row seat to a very candid, honest and private conversation between the BLAIR WITCH cast and co-director Eduardo Sanchez last March in Cincinnati. Shortly after that night, actor Joshua Leonard came to the decision to speak up publicly on social media for the first time about what the experience of being such a significant part of THE BLAIR WITCH phenomenon has REALLY been like. For 11+ years of doing this weekly podcast you've likely heard the phrase “unless your film makes BLAIR WITCH money you'll never see the backend that you've earned” at least a dozen times or more. This conversation shatters that myth and peels back the curtain on a system that is in need of more transparency and fairness. As with all of our special roundtable episodes, this episode is being released publicly in its entirety.
