Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1867"Happy people make gratitude a practice, not a reaction to something." - Lewis HowesLewis wakes up every single morning the same way: "Thank you, God, for another day." Not because something good happened. Not because he got what he wanted. Because 150,000 people die every single day, and he's not one of them. That's where it starts. He's discovered something most people never realize: you literally cannot be grateful and miserable at the same time. Try it right now. Hold gratitude in your mind and try to feel angry or sad or resentful. You can't do both. Your brain won't let you. So Lewis built his entire life around this truth. Morning gratitude when he wakes up. Evening gratitude with his wife Martha, where they each share three things they appreciate from that day. He's creating a bridge of gratitude from sunrise to sunset, and that bridge gets stronger every single day. The compound effect is real. He calls it breaking through the emotional armor that so many people carry around, that weight you don't even realize you're holding onto.Here's what shifts when you actually do this: your mind starts hunting for what's working instead of what's broken. You train yourself to see the good, and suddenly there's more of it everywhere. Lewis isn't asking you to ignore the hard stuff or pretend everything's perfect. He's asking you to write down three things you're grateful for every day for the next seven days. That's it. Three things. Because when you focus on what's present instead of what's missing, when you make gratitude and generosity your gateway to abundance, you stop reacting to life and start creating the happiness you deserve. Even on the days with heartbreak and stress and all the unfortunate things that happen, you'll have a tool that actually works. You'll notice your energy shift. Your heart shift. You'll start seeing why life is still beautiful, even in the middle of challenge.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Welcome to 2026! In this New Year's episode of Misery Loves Mandy, the hosts reflect on personal resolutions, holiday memories, and the funny, messy energy that comes with a fresh start.They dive into:

A new wave of prescription drugs breaking ground by helping patients lose unwanted pounds. Itchy eyes, runny nose, and constant sneezing: 1 in 4 Americans suffers from seasonal allergies. Just one pill can kill: that's the message a grieving ... ...

In der letzten Folge des Jahres machen wir nochmal ein Fass auf! Live aus dem Schmidtchen in Hamburg würdigen Torsten und Gerry zunächst das Lebenswerk von Regie-Legende ROB REINER (Harry und Sally, Misery). Danach wird es wild: Die wunderbare INA MÜLLER verrät den beiden Pansen u.a. warum sie mal gerne Horror Filme geschaut hat, und warum jetzt nicht mehr, und der großartige REINER SCHÖNE nimmt sie mit auf eine Reise durch seine beeindruckende Karriere von HAIR bis OPTIMUS PRIME und alles zwischendrin. Viel Spaß und rutscht gut rüber!

Dan and Ollie are joined by Murray to talk about the last four games and all things Salop!

For a lot of us in recovery, relationships have always been one-sided. We either took too much, gave too much, or stayed far longer than we should have out of guilt, fear, or obligation. Sobriety doesn't just change our relationship with alcohol — it forces us to take an honest look at how we relate to people. Healthy relationships aren't built on rescuing, chasing approval, or constant self-sacrifice. They're built on reciprocity — effort going both ways, respect flowing both directions, and boundaries that protect everyone involved. In today's Daily Trudge, we talk about: Why many of us confuse loyalty with self-abandonment How addiction trains us for one-sided relationships The difference between helping and enabling Why resentment is often a sign of imbalance Learning to receive, not just give Letting go of relationships that only work when we overextend How reciprocity supports emotional sobriety Recovery teaches us that love doesn't require us to disappear. We're allowed to expect effort, honesty, and respect in return. Healthy relationships don't drain us — they support growth on both sides.

LESSON 359God's Answer Is Some Form Of Peace. All Pain Is Healed;All Misery Replaced With Joy. All Prison Doors Are OpenedAnd All Sin Is Understood As Merely A Mistake.Father, today we will forgive Your world, and let creation be Your Own. We have misunderstood all things. But we have not made sinners of the holy Sons of God. What You created sinless so abides forever and forever. Such are we. And we rejoice to learn that we have made mistakes which have no real effects on us. Sin is impossible, and on this fact forgiveness rests upon a certain base more solid than the shadow world we see. Help us forgive, for we would be redeemed. Help us forgive, for we would be at peace.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

In this episode of Misery Loves Mandy, things get weird — starting with a mystery involving slabs of meat on car windshields in West Hollywood.Mandy recounts her recent misadventures including:

(E58—12/08/2025) — The season is over. Some of us are disappointed. Others proud. Regardless, the Brewers had the most wins in franchise history and had a helluva season. We discuss the end of the year, the offseason, and look forward to the winter.

On this episode of You Are What You Read, we are remembering the great Rob Reiner and his beautiful wife, Michele Singer Reiner. We had the honor of hosting Mr. Reiner on You Are What You Read in October with his memoir, A Fine Line Between Stupid and Clever: The Story of Spinal Tap, which he co-wrote with Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, Harry Shearer and David Kamp.  Rob is a two-time Emmy–winning actor for his role in All in the Family. He is also the acclaimed director of This Is Spinal Tap, Stand By Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, Misery, A Few Good Men, The American President, Ghosts of Mississippi, and The Bucket List. When Rob Reiner met Michele Singer on the set of When Harry Met Sally, he changed the ending of the film to the now-iconic conclusion… Michele Singer was a world-renowned photographer, producer and activist. Together, they spearheaded a tobacco tax initiative in California to fund early childhood development and chaired the state commission to oversee its implementation. In 2008, Michele and Rob cofounded The American Foundation For Equal Rights, which paved the way for marriage equality nationwide. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Rest In Peace Rob ReinerCommemorating not only the 35th Anniversary of an iconic adaptation of the popular Stephen King novel of the same name but the recent tragic loss of its director Rob Reiner who was in the middle of a sterling run of instant classics (When Harry Met Sally, The Princess Bride, A Few Good Men, Stand By Me) at the time of this film's release.  It's the simple story of fictional best-selling author Paul Sheldon (Oscar-nominee James Caan) who gets severely injured and incapacitated after accidently driving off of a snow road one day in the mountains after finishing his latest novel.  Fortunately he's found by a local retired nurse named Annie Wilkes (Kathy Bates in the role which won her the Oscar for Best Actress) who gradually nurses him back to health....or DOES she?

It was misery in Motherwell for Dundee. A dispiriting 1-0 defeat at Fir Park continued the Dark Blues' terrible away record. And fans in the stand made their feelings clear about Nelms, Strachan and Pressley. What does it all mean? Things were happier at Tannadice after a good week – how are Dundee United feeling about their point against Hibs, though? Injuries and suspensions are biting as we look ahead to Aberdeen.

They revisit his legendary range; STAND BY ME, MISERY, THE PRINCESS BRIDE, THIS IS SPINAL TAP, WHEN HARRY MET SALLY…, and A FEW GOOD MEN and reflect on why his movies feel like childhood, why they're endlessly quotable, and what his work taught us about story, character, and craft.   Hosted by Zef Cota

There's so much happening right now that we had to do a midweek visit with you here at Breakfast All Day. First, we reviewed the big movie of the week, "Avatar: Fire and Ash." James Cameron just keeps making "Avatar" movies, so we'll keep reviewing them. At least this time, Oona Chaplin adds an element of crazy-sexy danger as the leader of a tribe that's challenging the Na'vi. In theaters this Friday. Of course, we had to honor Rob Reiner, who was shockingly slain in his Brentwood home over the weekend alongside his wife, Michele. Since we recorded this, the couple's son, Nick, has been charged with two counts of first degree murder in connection with the killings. We remember Reiner as a director who made some of the most beloved and enduring movies of all time across a wide variety of genres, from "This Is Spinal Tap" to "The Princess Bride" to "When Harry Met Sally ..." to "Misery." We also pay tribute to how active he and his wife were in Democratic politics and causes. We'll devote our January Off the Menu poll to Reiner's work, so keep an eye out for that. Finally, a feel-good movie that we didn't feel particularly good about: "Rental Family." It's been out for a few weeks, so we wanted to catch up with it. Brendan Fraser stars as an American actor struggling to find work in Japan. He takes a job with an agency that hires out people to play a role in strangers' lives. Lots of people love this movie, but we did not. In theaters now. Thanks for sharing some of your time with us during the holidays. We'll have reviews of "The Housemaid" and "Is This Thing On?" plus movie news Friday, so come on back.

The snow is falling, the logs are crackling on the fire, and Kathy Bates is about to break your ankles so you can't escape her love. Also, you better rewrite your whole novel while writhing in excruciating pain. MISERY (1990) has a reputation which precedes it, as does our host this week, friend and author Erik J. Brown! Of course we would have a writer come on to discuss how bad it would suck to be in James Caan's shoes. Baby it's cold outside (but you might not want to come in)!

Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele, were tragically murdered over the weekend and the film community is still reeling. Reiner was not only a kind man, someone dedicated to protecting the rights and freedoms of everybody, and a talented filmmaker, he was one of the very few filmmakers that understood exactly how to translate Stephen King to the big screen. Author Nat Cassidy (The Wolf at the Door) and film commentator Drew McWeeny (The Hip Pocket Podcast) join Beznican and Vespe to discuss the tragic loss of Reiner and celebrate his massive contributions to the world of cinema, from his King adaptations Stand By Me, Misery, and The Shawshank Redemption (which he produced for Frank Darabont) to the genre defining classics This Is Spinal Tap, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, and A Few Good Men.

Tonight, Andy Reismeyer discusses the shock Brentwood murder of beloved filmmaker Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer Reiner, allegedly at the hands of his son Nick Reiner. According to breaking reports, after the double homicide, Nick checked into a hotel in Santa Monica for the night. Some of his most beloved films, whether making them or acting in them, include “The Princess Bride,” “The Wolf of War Street,” “New Girl,” “When Harry Met Sally,” “A Few Good Men,” “Misery” — and “Hannah Montana”! A terror plot involving a series of bombings across Southern California planned for New Year’s Eve has been foiled according to federal authorities, arresting four individuals as part of a pro-Palestine group called Turtle Island Liberation Front.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer Reiner were found dead in their Brentwood, Los Angeles home on Sunday, December 14, 2025. Authorities are investigating the deaths as a double homicide. According to People Magazine, citing multiple sources, the couple's 32-year-old son Nick Reiner is allegedly responsible. Both victims reportedly suffered stab wounds. Their daughter Romy discovered the bodies. Rob Reiner was 78. He won two Emmys playing "Meathead" on All in the Family before becoming one of Hollywood's most celebrated directors. His filmography includes This Is Spinal Tap, Stand By Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, Misery, and A Few Good Men. His final film, Spinal Tap II, was released earlier this year. Michele Singer Reiner, 68, was a photographer who met Rob on the set of When Harry Met Sally. They married in 1989 and had three children: Jake, Nick, and Romy. Rob once said meeting Michele inspired him to change the film's ending so the characters end up together. Nick Reiner has spoken publicly about his struggles with addiction, which began in his teens. He first entered rehab at 15 and cycled through more than a dozen treatment programs. In 2016, he co-wrote the semi-autobiographical film Being Charlie with his father about his experiences with addiction and recovery. LAPD has not officially named a suspect. The investigation is ongoing. We'll update as more information becomes available.  #RobReiner #MicheleSingerReiner #NickReiner #BreakingNews #TrueCrime #Hollywood #AllInTheFamily #ThePrincessBride #WhenHarryMetSally #LAPD

On December 14, 2025, Rob Reiner — the groundbreaking actor-turned-director whose blend of humor, heart, and moral clarity helped shape the landscape of modern American film — was murdered along with his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, in their Los Angeles home, bringing a tragic end to one of Hollywood's most enduring creative and personal partnerships. From his Emmy-winning turn as Michael “Meathead” Stivic on All in the Family to his extraordinary run of genre-defining films — including This Is Spinal Tap, Stand By Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, Misery, and A Few Good Men — Reiner carved out a career marked equally by artistic daring and emotional resonance. Michele, his steadfast collaborator in life, influenced his most iconic work and shared his commitment to family, advocacy, and the belief that stories could make the world better.

Description: Director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer Reiner were found dead in their Brentwood, Los Angeles home on Sunday, December 14, 2025. Authorities are investigating the deaths as a double homicide. According to People Magazine, citing multiple sources, the couple's 32-year-old son Nick Reiner is allegedly responsible. Both victims reportedly suffered stab wounds. Their daughter Romy discovered the bodies. Rob Reiner was 78. He won two Emmys playing "Meathead" on All in the Family before becoming one of Hollywood's most celebrated directors. His filmography includes This Is Spinal Tap, Stand By Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, Misery, and A Few Good Men. His final film, Spinal Tap II, was released earlier this year. Michele Singer Reiner, 68, was a photographer who met Rob on the set of When Harry Met Sally. They married in 1989 and had three children: Jake, Nick, and Romy. Rob once said meeting Michele inspired him to change the film's ending so the characters end up together. Nick Reiner has spoken publicly about his struggles with addiction, which began in his teens. He first entered rehab at 15 and cycled through more than a dozen treatment programs. In 2016, he co-wrote the semi-autobiographical film Being Charlie with his father about his experiences with addiction and recovery. LAPD has not officially named a suspect. The investigation is ongoing. We'll update as more information becomes available.

The headlines felt like a punch, but what followed needed space: a careful look at Rob Reiner's legacy across film, television, and public life. We start with the shock, then move into the work that defined him—how a sitcom son became a director who shaped modern storytelling and a citizen who put his name, time, and money behind causes that change lives.I revisit the run that still towers over studio filmmaking: the dry genius of This Is Spinal Tap, the tenderness of Stand By Me, the fairy tale nerve of The Princess Bride, the chemistry clinic of When Harry Met Sally, and the taut moral showdowns of Misery and A Few Good Men. Along the way, sharing details that made the craft feel human, like an iconic line delivered by his mother, and why those choices reveal a director obsessed with timing, character, and truth. Advocacy is also a big part of Reiner's legacy: early childhood education, healthcare initiatives, marriage equality, reproductive rights, and the legal muscle built through the American Foundation for Equal Rights.As breaking reports swirl speculations swell, we talk openly about addiction, homelessness, and possible serious mental illness not to sensationalize, but to argue for compassion and due process while investigators do their work. The goal is simple: honor the art, learn from the activism, and resist the urge to flatten complex lives into easy narratives.If this episode resonates, I invite you to follow the show, share it with a friend who loves film history, and leave a review with your favorite Rob Reiner moment.

Rita Malvone did — but only after it nearly burned her out as a leader, a human, and as someone trying to make sense of a career that never quite felt like hers.In this episode, Rita and I unpack the quiet misery of high-performing corporate people: the ones who smile on Zoom, hit the metrics, answer Slacks at 11 p.m.… and privately wonder why they feel so damn empty.Rita's story starts in China, leading a young team while simultaneously building an entire Asia-Pacific presence from scratch. On paper? Impressive.In reality? A slow emotional suffocation disguised as “success.”She talks openly about being a bad leader — not out of incompetence, but because she was deeply unhappy. The FaceTime culture, the politicking, the performative grind, the “be grateful you even have this job” mindset… all of it slowly turned her into someone she didn't like.When the company finally told her she was 47th in line for a promotion, she snapped the trap in half.Leaving wasn't graceful. It wasn't strategic.It was survival.And looking back, Rita realized something hard but beautiful:You can't become the leader you want to be inside a system that requires you to betray yourself.We dig into the aftermath of walking away, the shock of rediscovering joy, the messy years of rebuilding, and how real leadership is less “motivational poster” and more “doing the hard, human, unglamorous work.”We talk about why suffering gives leaders their edge, why authenticity can't be faked, and why corporate life fails people who don't fit the mold — no matter how capable they are.This isn't a rage story.It's a liberation story.No villains. No corporate-hate screeds. Just an honest look at the moment you realize your career is using you more than you're using it — and what happens when you finally walk out.TL;DR* The trap: A prestigious career that looks like success and feels like misery.* The break point: Being told she was “#47 in line for a promotion.”* The turn: Leaving corporate, owning how unhappy she truly was, and rebuilding a life that isn't powered by performance, FaceTime, or pretending.* The lesson: You can't lead well while losing yourself.Memorable Lines* “I wasn't a bad leader. I was an unhappy human pretending to be a leader.”* “We were building the seats as we were sitting in them.”* “You can't sugarcoat how miserable you are and still expect to lead well.”* “Once I stepped out, I finally saw the cage I had been sitting in.”GuestRita Malvone — Leadership coach, former corporate executive in China, and someone who rebuilt her life after discovering her ‘career' was a beautifully decorated cage.
