The Mysterious Oregon Coast adventure is in the rearview mirror, but we always like to peek back before moving on. On this edition we marvel at the fun we had on a fairly cursed tour of some of our favorite parts of the Pacific coast! Bike prep is key — but stuff still breaks. Even a tiny crank arm pin can end a day. Know shops and backup transport. Have Plans A–F ready. Flexibility and quick pivots kept the ride alive when mechanicals hit. Buses & rideshares save tours. Coastal transit and surprise Ubers kept us moving. Greatest hits still feel fresh. Cape Lookout, South Beach, Newport — new vibes, upgrades, and slower pacing. Weather's shifting. Got one classic foggy Yachats day, but most were sunnier/warmer — pack for both. Shorter mileage = more joy. 30–40 mi days let us linger in towns and stay energized. Hydrate & fuel early/often. Morning “camel up,” steady snacks, and Red Bulls beat last year's bonk. Hotel nights reset morale. Lincoln City, Yachats, Florence stays turned stress into mini-vacations. Logistics flexibility saves cash. Mid-trip flight/car/hotel changes avoided big losses. Ditch the perfect plan. Embracing detours and improvisation brought back the adventure and fun
There's a new celebrity boyfriend doing the rounds and everyone from Jennifer Aniston to Princess Martha Louise of Norway (a royal rebel if ever there was one) are here to confirm that the spiritual-softboi era is officially here. Holly has a precise theory as to why. And Jessie poses a provocative question to both Holly and Mamamia's Editor, Stacey Hicks: is anti-natalism (aka choosing not to have kids for ethical reasons) gaining traction for a reason? Plus, we've had 'job hopping' and 'quiet quitting' but it's 'job hugging' that's the latest workplace trend — and no, it's not as cosy as it sounds. There are pros, there are cons and someone's missing out bigtime. Stacey explains.

In this episode, Michelle and Chase sit down with Amber Watts to explore a transformative approach to employee development: Everboarding. Amber shares insights from her book From Onboarding to Everboarding: Redefining Employee Development, challenging traditional views of onboarding as a one-time event and reframing it as a strategic, ongoing process that fuels long-term performance, retention, and growth. Key Takeaways: Everboarding begins after the welcome packet. It's about building systems that evolve with your people. Onboarding is a strategy, not an event. Leaders play a critical role in reinforcing key messages and creating a culture of continuous enablement. It's a relay, not a race. Ownership of development shifts across HR, L&D, employees, and leaders, each carrying the baton at different stages. Mid-career professionals matter too. Everboarding isn't just for new employees, it's about staying adaptive, relevant, and growth-focused throughout an employee's journey. Growth is self-driven, but leaders are powerful partners. Development isn't always about promotion, it can be about deepening expertise and staying engaged. You don't need a program - you need a plan. Amber shares practical advice for organizations to implement an everboarding strategy. Everboarding is a growth lever for organizations. It shifts the focus from simply getting someone started to keeping them growing, a mindset that's essential in today's fast-changing workplace.

When to Move Beyond QuickBooks -CFO Insights for Growing Businesses EP321 of Profit With A Plan Podcast Released September 30, 2025 Guest: Laresa McIntyre - Founder and Fractional CFO | Rockbridge CFO Host: Marcia Riner- Business Growth Strategist | Infinite Profit®
In 1987, friends Patty Kratochvil and Carolyn Dotson opened Threads of Memories Antique Mall in Brookings, South Dakota, with a simple idea: combine alterations with the love for antiques—and keep them in the community. Fast forward to 2021, Carolyn's daughter, Emily Braun, took over the shop and continues the legacy with her own modern touch.In this episode, Emily and I talk about the journey stepping into small business ownership in the Midwest, how she curates what fills the store, and the difference between antiques, vintage, and thrifted items. She shares why she values supporting local shops that complement hers, how her mom and Patty came up with the store's name, and how her popular “What's New Wednesday” on social media helps connect treasures with new homes. You'll learn about design trends—like the ever-present enthusiasm for Mid-century modern, the comeback of record players, vinyl, and green Depression glass—and which items have phased out. Emily offers advice for downsizing or inheriting family heirlooms (including why some things aren't worth as much as we hope), and a few lesser-known suggestions for where to donate pieces you might not be able to keep.Of course, we talk food too. Emily shares memories of her mom's deviled eggs, her dad's famous meat marinade, apple crisp, and Thanksgiving at the farm. You'll find her dad's recipes for buttermilk waffles and the meat marinade, and Emily's modified Pioneer Woman recipe for spinach dip on randomsweets.com. Plus, Emily lets us in on a hidden gem where she enjoyed a delicious chicken salad sandwich and the best pickle spear—a cozy spot off Highway 19 in Redwood Falls, Minnesota. If you love antiques, small business stories, Midwest living, or simply the memories tied to the things we treasure, this conversation will feel like wandering the aisles of your favorite antique shop with a couple of friends.

Leadership isn't about being right—it's about being real. Angie Lyon, Chief Soul Officer at Black River Performance Management and host of the Leader U Podcast, went from high-stakes operating rooms to transforming leadership teams. In this raw conversation, she reveals why 87% of leaders struggle with imposter syndrome and what to do about it. What You'll Learn: Transitional Intelligence (TQ) - The critical skill that helps leaders navigate change with intention instead of chaos, and why it's different from emotional intelligence The root cause of leadership struggles - Why most challenges trace back to feeling "not enough" or "not safe," and how to break free from these limiting beliefs Creating micro-cultures of excellence - How one self-aware leader can build a thriving team even inside toxic organizations AI-proof leadership skills - The human capabilities (empathy, communication, self-awareness) that will make you irreplaceable in an AI-driven world The unlearning paradox - Why authentic leadership requires shedding the habits that got you here From proving to improving - How to shift from external validation to internal growth and confidence Key Insights: Angie shares her journey from surgical technologist to leadership expert, revealing what she learned watching leaders in life-or-death situations. "One good leader can create a culture where people thrive," she explains. "But leaders stuck in fear mode create environments where people make more mistakes." She introduces the concept of Transitional Intelligence—your ability to move through change without losing yourself. While Emotional Intelligence helps you feel your way through moments, Transitional Intelligence helps you move through them, especially in the messy middle of transition. The conversation gets real about vulnerability, ego, and the courage to ask: "Do I want to be right, or do I want this relationship?" Perfect for: Mid-to-senior level managers, entrepreneurs, executives, team leads, HR professionals, and anyone committed to becoming a more self-aware, resilient, and human-centric leader. About Angie Lyon: Angie is a certified surgical technologist turned leadership development expert, recognized as Woman of Influence in Entrepreneurship (2021).

Ready to optimize your retirement savings strategy? Let's clear up some confusion about Roth vs. Traditional retirement accounts that might be costing you thousands in future tax benefits.First, let's bust a common myth: there are NO income limits for Roth 401(k) contributions! While Roth IRAs do have income restrictions, your salary never disqualifies you from making Roth 401(k) contributions if your employer offers this option. And starting next year, highly-compensated employees over 50 will need to make their catch-up contributions as Roth.Traditional accounts give you an immediate tax break by reducing your taxable income now, with taxes due on both contributions and earnings when you withdraw in retirement. Roth accounts offer no immediate tax deduction, but qualified withdrawals in retirement—including decades of compound growth—come out completely tax-free.For early-career savers, I generally recommend Roth contributions regardless of income. The power of tax-free compounding over 30-40 years typically outweighs immediate tax savings. Mid-career professionals face a more nuanced decision based on current tax situations and future tax rate expectations. Pre-tax contributions can strategically keep your income below thresholds for valuable tax benefits like the expanded SALT deduction or child tax credits. Meanwhile, Roth IRAs offer a hidden emergency fund feature—you can withdraw contributions (not earnings) anytime without penalties.Running scenarios through tax software can help quantify the difference between these options for your specific situation. But remember, while saving strategically matters, I've never met anyone who regretted saving too much for retirement—just don't forget to enjoy life with loved ones along the way!Want more financial insights delivered in 15 minutes or less?

A story about rejecting the magic wand approach to AI—and building something businesses can actually use.This episode is for Mid-market SaaS founders tired of AI hype who want to build something that creates real customer value—not just impressive demos.Most SaaS companies don't fail because of bad tech. They fail because they chase hype over value.Zohar Bronfman, CEO of Pecan AI, took a different path. After years researching AI and philosophy in academia, he saw Amazon, Uber, and Spotify dominating with predictive AI—while thousands of smaller companies couldn't even get started. Instead of building another "AI for everything" platform, he focused obsessively on one thing: making predictive AI accessible to mid-market companies who couldn't afford data science teams.And this inspired me to invite Zohar to my podcast. We explore why curiosity beats strategy when building in uncertain markets. Zohar shares hard-won insights about deprecating profitable features, why small teams outperform large ones, and how to identify which enterprise capabilities actually matter for mid-market customers. You'll discover why Pecan almost never loses customers—despite operating in the brutally competitive AI space.We also zoom in on two of the 10 traits that define remarkable software companies:Trait #2: Be valuable and desirableTrait #6: Create fans, not just customersZohar's story is proof that sustainable growth comes from solving real problems—not riding waves.Here's one of Zohar's quotes that captures his philosophy:"You can sell things, especially to larger organizations. You can sell things that actually don't have ROI. You can sell things that either look shiny, sound shiny or smell shiny, or all of the above.

I am excited to kick off the brand-new Mid-Career Podcast Series, where I dive into the realities of academic life after tenure. Mid-career is the longest stretch of the academic journey, often 15 to 20 years, and while it brings stability and experience, it can also feel like uncharted territory. Many academics discover that the freedoms they imagined post-promotion are replaced with heavier workloads, shifting priorities, and the lingering question of what's next. In this first episode, I lay the groundwork for what mid-career really looks like and why it matters. I'll talk about the gap between expectation and reality, the identity shifts that happen when the tenure track drive fades, and the surprising ways burnout shows up even after achieving major milestones. Most importantly, I'll introduce how to think about mid-career not as a plateau, but as a phase filled with opportunities to realign, reset, and build skills that sustain your academic life for the long haul. Tune in to start reframing mid-career on your own terms and hear sneak peeks of the insights and stories I will share throughout this series. For full show notes visit scholarsvoice.org/podcast.

They unpack the long-running “are phosphates a thing?” debate, why South Florida sees big swings, and how phosphates intersect with salt systems, algae control, and filter life. Mid-show, Rudy drops in a short interview with Joe Trusty on where AI is already helping pool pros. Back with the duo, you'll get practical strategies: when to treat, what “weekly micro-dosing” looks like, why some removers cloud and others don't, and a clear explanation of orthophosphates vs. organic phosphates.

Mid-sized law firms are facing pressure from every direction. Associates are poached with six-figure pay bumps, partners are stretched thin between billing and management, and specialty practices vanish without succession plans. At the same time, clients expect broader reach and deeper benches than many firms can deliver. In this episode, host Chris Batz shares what he's hearing directly from managing partners and executive committee members across the country. He outlines the squeeze mid-sized firms are feeling - lagging organic growth, talent retention challenges, leadership burnout - and the difficult choices leaders are weighing: scale up, go lean, or join a larger platform. Chris also looks at the emerging role of private equity in law firm ownership and the ripple effects it could have on culture, compensation, and competition. Along the way, he points out steps firms can take now: sharpen strategic vision, invest in leadership and succession, strengthen recruiting systems, and pursue growth through the right mergers or acquisitions. At its heart, this episode asks a question every firm should confront: how do you stay competitive without exhausting the people who make your firm strong?

Kevin Freeman, Chief Commercial Officer at Health Catalyst, highlights the challenges mid-market healthcare systems are currently facing, including the predicted impact of Medicaid cuts and the increase in uninsured patients. There is a need to break down data silos and use AI and data analytics to improve the quality of care, reduce costs, and address clinician burnout. The Health Catalyst platform is designed to integrate existing technology, improve efficiency, and provide expertise and support to drive better patient outcomes and manage financially sound organizations. Kevin explains, "Health Catalyst works with healthcare providers, really of all sizes. Historically, more academics and IDNs, but more recently, over the last six to seven months, have really focused on the mid-market health systems. Mid-market health systems still struggle with some of the same issues that large health systems do, but they lack the technology, expertise, and some of the clinical experience that drive outcomes. So, we're really excited to move into the mid-market, improve quality and patient care, and reduce costs at the same time." "Our goal is not to rip and replace, but to meet them where they're at. Those investments that they've made, we can take those investments, integrate them into our platform, and drive those outcomes—that outcome improvement strategy across the entire system. I think that one of the biggest things we're seeing is that the technology is just not enough. Dashboards aren't enough. It really takes driving those outcomes and having that clinical expertise. But we don't just bring the technology. We bring the people with the technology to actually partner with them hand-in-hand to actually drive that outcome improvement." #HealthCatalyst #MidMarketHospitals #Hospitals #Healthcare #MedicaidCuts #HealthcareProviders healthcatalyst.com Download the transcript here

Superman (2025) brings audiences a version of Lois Lane and Clark Kent who are clearly very hot for each other. But could they ever actually consummate their relationship?“Putting it delicately…do you…eat?”Pulitzer Prize winning reporter Lois LaneWelcome to Does it Fly? After Dark, the podcast that puts your favorite pop culture concepts to the test…but this time in a slightly more adult setting. That's right, for this episode, we were live in front of an audience (at Mission Brewery in San Diego, California) with our brilliant friends Rosie Knight and Jason Concepcion of I Heart Media's X-Ray Vision podcast. Honestly, we needed all the help we could get to discuss the hot button issue of the moment: how is it possible for Superman and Lois Lane to have sex?Look, anyone who watched Rachel Brosnahan and David Corenswet as Lois and Clark on screen in James Gunn's brilliant Superman movie this year absolutely could feel the heat coming off those characters from the screen. So it's not “how COULD they” so much as it is “seriously, HOW could they?” As we all know, Kryptonians are made of, um, harder stuff than humans, and folks have spent the better part of 80 years quietly asking how Superman and Lois can be intimate without serious injury to the human part of the equation.Sure, there aren't many actual scientific studies involving human to alien sex, so we examined this heat-vision hot topic from all positions…sorry…angles in a raucous, slightly more R-rated format than usual. Check it out, but beware…this episode contains adult themes and strong language!Watch the video version here! https://youtu.be/4E3Zc3uT97MThis episode of Does it Fly is brought to you by Upper Deck. Fleer Brilliants Superman shines the light on Superman and Metropolis in a bright and brilliant new way!Whether it's the 90-card base set on rainbow foil board featuring art by some of the greatest artists in Superman history or highly collectible inserts like “Classic Covers,” “Last Son of Krypton,” “World of Metropolis,” Truth, Justice, and a Batter Tomorrow” or the super rare “Powered by the Sun” cards, Fleer Brilliants Superman is the ultimate tribute to the Man of Steel and his friends, family, and foes.Head to upperdeckstore.com to start your collection, today!FURTHER VIEWINGMuch of what prompted our discussion about Clark Kent and Lois Lane actually getting down to business came from the radiation burns level hot chemistry that co-stars David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan have on screen in James Gunn's Superman (2025). You can now watch this on HBO Max if you need further proof. But also!Let's also refer you back to Richard Lester and Richard Donner's Superman II (1980) in which Clark (Christopher Reeve) temporarily gives up his powers to be with Lois (Margot Kidder) and there's a pretty sensual moment of the two of them in bed together in the Fortress of Solitude. That being said, Clark was a “normal man” there, but the fact that he had to give up his powers in order to get there might be an indication.Mid-1990s TV series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman often featured their Lois (Teri Hatcher) and Clark (Dean Cain) in an ongoing will they/won't they fury of sexual tension (they eventually did). But the specific episode where they learn they can't have children together because of Clark's alien biology was the series finale, season 4, episode 22.And, of course, Smallville was a remarkably horny show and there's uh…several episodes dealing with the matter of Clark (Tom Welling) having sex with human women. But one in particular is season 7, episode 7, “Wrath” in which Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk) gains powers so Clark doesn't have to worry about holding back. But the real fun with Smallville is the long and winding and horny journey, so feel free to just wallow in Clark's awkwardness throughout.We also have fun with the question of the “kryptonite condom” raised by Kevin Smith's slacker comedy classic Mallrats.FURTHER READINGDo you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! Man of Steel, Woman of KleenexYou think we're the first people to consider this topic? Famed sci-fi and fantasy author Larry Niven first tackled this topic way back in 1969 (nice!). It's available online to read here.And in the Comics…For more than half of Superman's published history, it was more or less implied that he was pretty chaste. Aside from the major romantic players in his life like Lana Lang and Lois Lane, Superman has at various times been intimate with Maxima (a powerful alien who sees Supes as perfect to have kids with), Wonder Woman (during DC's “New 52” era and a fling which is almost certainly no longer canon), and others. But the real progression of his romance with Lois Lane, which eventually leads to the birth of their son, Jon, began in the mid-90s and Jon's birth and its aftermath are depicted in the Convergence: Superman and Lois and Clark limited series by Dan Jurgens and Lee Weeks which are pretty much the starting point for their modern/current relationship.WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?The companion piece to this episode is our much more family-friendly examination of the concept of Superman getting his powers from the yellow sun of Earth.And for something not remotely sexy, we looked at the horrifying reality of the Joker toxin from Batman (1989) here.FOLLOW US!Stay in the loop!

Alex Salazar, co-founder and CEO of Arcade.dev, joins the show to unpack the realities of building enterprise agents. Conceptually simple but technically hard, agents are reshaping how companies think about workflow automation, security, and human-in-the-loop design. Alex shares why moving from proof-of-concept to production is so challenging, what playbooks actually work, and how enterprises can avoid wasting time and money as this technology accelerates faster than any previous wave.Key TakeawaysEnterprise agents aren't chatbots—they're workflow systems that can take secure, authorized actions.The real challenge isn't just building demos but getting to production-grade consistency and accuracy.Mid-market companies face the steepest climb: limited budgets, limited ML expertise, but the same competitive pressure.Success starts with finding low-risk, high-impact opportunities and narrowing scope as much as possible.Authorization is the biggest blocker today; delegated OAuth models are key to unlocking real agent functionality.Timestamped Highlights02:02 — Why agents are “just advanced workflow software” but harder to trust than traditional apps04:53 — The gap between glorified chatbots and real enterprise agents that take action09:58 — From cloud mistrust to wire transfers: how comfort with automation evolves14:00 — Chaos at every tier: startups, enterprises, and why the mid-market struggles most26:21 — The playbook: how to pick use cases, narrow scope, and carry pilots all the way to prod34:38 — Breaking down agent authorization and why most RAG systems fail in practice42:09 — Adoption at double speed: what makes this AI wave different from internet and cloudA Thought That Stuck“An agent isn't an agent until it can take action.

Ballot measures give voters a chance to participate in direct democracy while providing nonprofit organizations with a powerful platform to educate the public about issues they champion. In this episode, we discuss California's pending redistricting ballot measure and other developments in direct democracy with returning guest Emma Olson Sharkey. Attorneys for this Episode • Tim Mooney • Susan Finkel Sourlis • Emma Olson Sharkey, Elias Law Group The Importance of Ballot Measures · Ballot measures give voters direct power to shape laws and policies, bypassing legislatures. · For nonprofits, they're a powerful platform to educate the public and advance mission-driven issues. · Emma Olson Sharkey—partner at Elias Law Group and one of the nation's leading ballot measure experts—returns to share insights (last heard in ROTG 96). California's Prop 50: Mid-Cycle Redistricting · Background: California has an independent redistricting commission that drew maps in 2021 for the 2022 elections. · New twist: In response to Texas' recent partisan maps, Governor Newsom and allies pushed for mid-decade redistricting. · The ballot measure: Prop 50, passed by the legislature and signed by the Governor, will go to voters in a special election on November 4, 2025. Redistricting Through Ballot Measures · Ballot measures have long been used to reform redistricting across the U.S. · Examples: - Successful: Colorado (2018), Michigan (2018), Missouri (2020), Ohio (2018). - Unsuccessful: Ohio's most recent attempt. · Mid-cycle redistricting isn't new: Texas pioneered it in 2003 under Tom DeLay, and the playbook has returned in 2025. What Nonprofits Need to Know · 501(c)(3) Public Charities: May engage in ballot measure advocacy—it counts as lobbying. Key distinction: 'Vote yes/no on Prop X' = permissible lobbying; 'Vote for Candidate Y' = prohibited partisan activity. · Because Prop 50 is rooted in partisan battles, public charities must tread carefully and seek legal advice before weighing in. · Generally safe activity: nonpartisan voter engagement (e.g., get-out-the-vote drives, voter registration), but seek counsel especially around Prop 50. · 501(c)(4)s and Labor Organizations: Have far greater leeway—no cap on lobbying. But California's strict regulatory environment requires attention to registration and reporting obligations. Restricting Access to Ballot Initiatives · Since 2016, conservative legislatures have increasingly tried to restrict citizen-led ballot measures. · States in the spotlight: North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Missouri, Florida, Oklahoma, Arkansas. · Many proposals fail, but recent years have seen more succeed, especially in Florida and Arkansas. · Missouri is considering both mid-cycle redistricting and ballot measure restrictions in the same session. A Bit of Good News · South Dakota victory: A federal court struck down H.B. 1184's nine-month filing deadline for ballot measures as unconstitutional, reaffirming citizens' First Amendment rights. · Practical impact: Keeps the window open for grassroots groups to gather signatures and qualify measures.

Join host Aaron Renn as he sits down with Caleb Morell, author of A Light on the Hill, to explore the rich history of Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington, D.C. Founded in 1878, this evangelical church, located just blocks from the U.S. Capitol and Supreme Court, has remained steadfast in its theological convictions while navigating cultural, political, and social changes over 150 years. From its founding by Civil War veterans to its role in the fundamentalist-modernist controversy, urban challenges, and the revitalization under pastor Mark Dever, this episode uncovers what makes this church a unique case study in American Christianity. Learn how Capitol Hill Baptist has maintained its gospel-centered mission amidst D.C.'s evolving landscape, including its response to suburbanization, gentrification, and even a lawsuit against the city during COVID-19.CHAPTERS:(00:01 - Introduction)(00:24 - What Makes Capitol Hill Baptist Unique?)(03:33 - Founding and Early History (1878))(05:42 - Capsule Summary of the Church's History)(09:24 - The Fundamentalist-Modernist Controversy)(14:56 - Suburbanization and Desegregation in the Mid-20th Century)(20:54 - Urban Planning and Parking Lot Disputes)(22:12 - Racial Integration and Social Engagement)(27:31 - The Marion Barry Era and Urban Violence)(32:13 - Mark Dever's Arrival and Church Revitalization)(35:50 - Gentrification and Its Impact)(38:38 - COVID-19 Lawsuit and Church Response)(41:38 - Commitment to Single-Service Gatherings)(45:09 - Political Engagement Over Time)(49:17 - The Importance of Institutions)(52:11 - Closing Remarks)CALEB MORELL'S LINKS:

NFL is back, a behind-the-scenes of the fantasy-football skit we filmed this morning, plus Trey's one-take pumpkin-spice latte throw that somehow made views but not money. From there, it's Target therapy, dads-night-out vs. moms, and a heated matcha debate. Mid-show we dive into hot-tub temps (petition for “male vs. female” settings), whether octopuses are really that smart, and a Chihuahua ancestry rabbit hole. We wrap with Jessica Biel's new show/pull-up goals, lost AirPods & Find My horror stories, automatic headlights, and a first-date hazard-lights tale (Patreon tease).
