In this episode… Many real estate investors feel stuck between building equity slowly and staying liquid for emergencies. Is there a strategy that offers both speed and flexibility? According to Miles Thompson, a seasoned real estate investing coach and long-time investor, the All-In-One Loan strategy is that exact solution. He highlights how combining your checking and mortgage accounts into one dynamic tool can help investors whittle down loan balances daily, not monthly, resulting in faster debt payoff and better cash flow. By focusing on cash efficiency and strategic loan structuring, investors can reach financial freedom in as little as 5-7 years. Miles explains how this method not only accelerates equity-building but also preserves liquidity — giving investors more control, less stress, and greater opportunities to scale. In this episode of The Same Day Podcast, host Mat Zalk sits down with Miles Thompson, Founder of Miles Home Loans, to discuss how the All-In-One Loan works and why it outperforms conventional loans. Miles explains how he helps clients compress time to freedom, use equity strategically, and apply loan optimization techniques to maximize cash flow.

How can we persevere in the face of setbacks? How can we take a chance to discover what lies beyond the obstacles we're facing?   Life is indeed unpredictable. We never know when adversity will strike. In a flash of an eye, the things you were enjoying at the moment can turn into a nightmare. Thus, we naturally get discouraged when confronted with troubles, adversities, or conditions that make our lives uncomfortable. Many things in this world could injure our hopeful hearts and render us defenseless.   However, we must realize that we can still find a glimmer of hope even amid our worst circumstances. There will always be something held in reserve for each of us. Consequently, we cannot see those great opportunities because we dwell too much on rejection, failure, and unfavorable circumstances. Recognize that there are certain things over which we have no control. We must learn to trust God and His judgments since He understands what we genuinely require and how much we can handle. Let us strive to live with no regrets of yesterday's opportunities, leaving no room for doubts and embracing God's plan. Therefore, when bombarded by negative thoughts and self-doubt, take a leap of faith and believe God can take good care of everything. As our guest speaker claimed, "God will never tell you to do something that will lead to your destruction."   Pastor Wesley Thompson is a loving husband, father, educator, author, activist, chaplain, political candidate, pastor, and faithful man of God. He is a native of Florence, Alabama. He is the senior pastor and teacher at Bethel Colbert Missionary Baptist Church and previously served as a youth pastor and interim pastor in his eleven years of ministry. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in political science from the University of North Alabama and a master's of divinity degree from Mercer University. He is pursuing a doctor of ministry degree from the Interdenominational Theological Center. He has worked as a college admissions recruiter and adjunct professor. He is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., NAACP, the Academy of Preachers, and various community service organizations. He is married to Le'Tanndra Thompson, and they have one son, Miles Thompson.   In this special episode with Pastor Wesley Thompson, we'll learn about the inspiring life of a man of God who encountered an unfavorable situation in life that made him stronger and closer to God. Be captivated as we discover how a young pastor handled his life's most challenging decisions to take care of his pregnant wife as she faced a tragic health crisis.   "God is never going to tell you to go somewhere in which it's going to lead to failure." – Pastor Wesley Thompson   Topics Covered: (00:00:00) Introduction + Episode Snippet (00:00:38) Introducing our special guest, Wesley Thompson (00:02:11) You can make something positive out of a negative situation.

They said it couldn't be done. We thought it would never happen. Hell, we thought they were kidding. No, we really did. But here we are. Our own Miles Thompson and his literal celebrity co-host Ethan Lawrence have actually found time in their very busy schedules to talk for nearly two and a half hours all about Koei Tecmo's gloriously over-the-top hack and slash series Dynasty Warriors.Essentially, everything you need to know about the series is included here, along with a whole lot of discussion about things that aren't all related to the series but is kept into the final cut because well, why not, something had to pad this one out.For the hardcore, Miles and Ethan get into extreme detail about the game, the novels, their legacy and their importance to gaming as a whole. Also, Ethan is topless the entire time. Of course, this is an audio medium so you won't see such things, but you're made aware fairly on. Keep that in mind as you listen, it makes it all far more sexy. Sexier than you could ever imagine two guys talk about Dynasty Warriors for nearly 150 minutes. It's quite something.You're gonna love this, don't miss it.Enjoy the ep!ALL THE PLACES WE ARE: https://linktr.ee/fingergunsDonate to Sunflower of Peace to support humanitarian efforts in Ukraine: http://www.sunflowerofpeace.comTheme Music – De Jongens Met de Zwarte Schoenen by RoccoW & xyce. | Edited and produced by Ross Keniston | Published by Acast.Team: @FNGRGNS / Rossko – @RosskoKeniston / Paul – @ThePaulCollett / Greg – @GregatonBomb / Sean – @Omac_Brother / Toby – @toby_andersen / Andy – @PsychTyson / Kat – @RainbowDropx / Tom - @T_Woods93 | Facebook: FingerGunsUK / Twitch: twitch.tv/fingergunsdotnet / The Official Finger Guns Discord Discord: Join here!

Chef Miles Thompson grew up on the East Coast of the United States with dreams of becoming an actor, but after he moved to California (and landed a movie role), he migrated to the pro kitchen. He first drew attention at Allumette restaurant, then left LA, returning about two years ago to take over the kitchen of Michael’s Santa Monica (the restaurant featured on the cover of Andrew’s recent book), and reinvigorated the nearly 40-year-old landmark with his state-of-the-art cuisine. Deceptively reserved in the dining room, at the podcast mics, Miles reveals himself to be a young chef of great confidence, thoughtfulness, and honesty with a wonderful culinary philosophy to share. Here's a thought: If you like what you hear, please tell your chef-fascinated friends, subscribe to Andrew Talks to Chefs (it's free) on iTunes or Stitcher, follow us on your favorite social media platforms @ChefPodcast, and/or rate or review us on Apple's podcast store.

Welcome back to this weekends episode! For those of you who are new, this podcast is hosted by brothers Ben and Miles Thompson. We discuss trending topics within the NBA. In this weeks episode, we discussed a couple high scoring stat-lines, as well as troubled teams. The Sacramento Kings, Washington Wizards, and GS Warriors also make their way into the discussion. Feel free to leave us comments or suggestions at: Bickeringbasketballbrothers@gmail.com or at @MilesThompson24 @BensBeenDead

Miles Thompson is the Executive Chef of Michael's Restaurant in Santa Monica, a mainstay in the modern Californian cuisine movement for almost 40 years, having acted as a springboard for the likes of Nancy Silverton, Jonathan Waxman, Brooke Williamson, Sang Yoon, and more. Originally from New York state, Thompson moved to LA over a decade ago to work in the kitchens of NOBU, Animal, and Sonofagun, respectively, before venturing out on his own to start the wonderfully-received pop-up series called The Vagrancy Project, a supper club that he ran out of his tiny Hollywood apartment for about 8 months. The Vagrancy Project ultimately led to Thompson opening his first restaurant as head chef at the now closed Allumette restaurant in Echo Park, which was selected by Bon Appétit as one of the Best New Restaurants in 2013. After a brief stint away from Southern California, Thompson returned in 2016 to take the helm at Michael's, after founder Michael McCarty's son Chas convinced his father to bring on the young chef, telling him they needed to “take things to the next step” at the venerable restaurant. Two years in, Thompson continues to push forward the restaurant's legacy as an icon of Southern California's restaurant scene, coming up with many of his most innovative recipes while listening to music during his sometimes 90-minute commute from East LA to Santa Monica on the 10 freeway.

Hello! Welcome to the first episode of a new podcast hosted by two basketball-loving brothers, Ben and Miles Thompson.

The Naked Vibes Show features conversations with musicians, artists & healers to ignite your creative genius & elevate you in your spiritual growth. This episode features Grammy-winning songwriter, Wood Newton, a veteran of the Nashville music scene, a performing artist & activist. This audio was taken from a Naked Vibes TV episode where Wood joined me to play live & to share conversation about the creative process, his insights on the importance of commitment in relationships, his activism on behalf of songwriters' constitutional rights, & more. Wood is well-known in music circles as a lyricist adept at turning a phrase. He has a great sense of humor, so we enjoyed some good laughs! Enjoy the show on NAKED VIBES TV: SHOW NOTES: 1:55 - SONG - LIVE PERFORMANCE: "Private Malone" performed live by Wood Newton at the Bluebird Cafe, Nashville. 6:31 - We're recording our conversation in the studio of painter, Gloria Newton. Wood respects this as her sacred space. We all need sacred space for our creativity to blossom. 7:04 - Wood has over 2000 songs in his catalog, recorded by Kenny Rogers, Alabama, Steve Wariner, Oak Ridge Boys, David Ball, B.J. Thomas, Anne Murray, George Jones, Restless Heart & many more. 7:42 - Everyone is creative. As a songwriter, Wood's antennae are always up for new phrases & ideas. Inspiration comes from everywhere. It's amazing what people say on Facebook. Watch out  - that could end up in a song! 9:00 - Wood respects the ideas that other songwriters share as part of their own creative work. Though inspiration is everywhere, ideas shared as titles or "works in progress" are not up for grabs. 9:35 - Tim & Miles Thompson had the idea for the song, "It's Time For Me To Go" & Wood helped them phrase it. One of his strong suits is creating phrases that work easily for the singer. Great video on YouTube. 10:33 - Wood has collaborated with so many other songwriters. He talks about the benefits of collaboration & the way that process continues to benefit him even when he's writing solo. 11:40 - When you're writing with another artist & the hair on your arms stands up, you've probably got something! The intuitive nature of creativity is where the power lies - & that comes into play in business, relationships, & every other endeavor. 12:26 - Wood relies on his intuition as his editor in writing & business. He's been published by Sony, Jerry Crutchfield at MCA, Kenny O'Dell & Bob Montgomery at House of Gold Music, Jim & David Malloy, Even Stevens & Eddie Rabbit. Wood counts on his intuition to alert him to what direction to take, even moreso now that he runs his own publishing business. 13:30 - Wood pays close attention to his emotions about an idea when writing. Joy, sadness, & fun are all guides. He loves the comedy of Roger Miller. What a laugh! 13:58 - Miller's song "Husbands & Wives" brings forth strong emotions. Wood talks about the premise of this song, pride, being the demise of many good relationships. Celebrating his 42nd wedding anniversary on the date of this video shoot, we discuss the richness of lasting relationships. 15:09 - There's freedom in commitment. Wood tells the story of meeting a couple celebrating their 50th anniversary & telling them, "That's a good start!" He also tells of marrying Gloria in Oklahoma because there was no waiting period. When he shared their story on Facebook, it got more "likes" & comments than anything he's ever posted - & he has over 5000 fans there. That says something about the fact that people ultimately want good, lasting relationships. Wood talks about never taking your relationships for granted. 16:57 - Many young men have come forward searching for answers to that these days. Wood is happy to share his wisdom with them in these personal areas & is also open to creative collaboration with writers getting their start. 17:53 - Wood is very real & open, not interested in shallow relationships. That kind of openness is what brings success - in eve...

We drop by the dining room of the legendary Michael's in Santa Monica for both a retrospective of the restaurant's 38-year history, and a look at what its future holds as owner/founder Michael McCarty now hands the reins over to his son, Chas, and award-winning chef, Miles Thompson. With a sound described as "nihilist queer revolt musik," New York City artist, Dreamcrusher, a total non-conformist who originally hails from of Wichita, KS, lays down a live in-studio performance rich with electronic, shoegaze and punk influences.
