Staring at the same Keepa chart for the third day in a row? Robin Joy introduces the concept of "data imprisonment" - when historical data becomes a cage instead of a compass.   Brian and Robin Joy break down why Keepa shows you evidence of what happened, not proof of what will happen for YOU. They share real coaching examples of hidden Amazon Fresh competition, geographic blind spots, and why the only way to escape analysis paralysis is to test more ASINs.   As Yogi Berra said: "In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice.

Dr. Michael McKee is sitting in an Illinois jail charged with murdering his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer in Columbus, Ohio. The evidence against him is mounting — a preliminary NIBIN match linking a firearm from his Chicago penthouse to shell casings at the crime scene, surveillance footage of his vehicle arriving before the killings and leaving after, and video of a hooded figure in the alley at 3:52 AM. But this investigation still has gaps. Police say there was no forced entry at the Tepe home. They haven't explained how McKee allegedly got inside. And they haven't addressed the question that's puzzling everyone who's followed this case: why would a vascular surgeon — a man whose career depends on precision — allegedly keep the murder weapon in his own apartment for eleven days? Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins True Crime Today to analyze the forensic evidence, the surveillance timeline, and what investigators might be holding back. We examine the behavioral red flags that emerged months before these murders — McKee allegedly gave his employer a fake address, a malpractice process server tried nine times to locate him without success, and a former colleague said he "just disappeared." Coffindaffer explains what these patterns suggest and why McKee's decision to talk to police before invoking his right to remain silent could be the prosecution's most valuable asset. The defense has already signaled their strategy — McKee waived extradition and requested a speedy return to Ohio to plead not guilty. What holes are they planning to exploit?#MoniqueTepe #MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #TrueCrimeToday #JenniferCoffindaffer #DoubleHomicide #ColumbusOhio #NIBINBallistics #SurveillanceEvidence #TrueCrimeNewsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Choosing an Ireland vacation package seems simple enough. You find a deal you like- be it self-drive or guided- and make the purchase. Done. Ireland vacation booked and ready. But it may not be so simple. Airline transfers, car rental, accommodations… they all play a role in the success of your vacation to Ireland. This article is also available as the Traveling in Ireland podcast, episode 324. Use the player below to listen or scroll to continue reading the article and get resource links. Ireland Vacation Packages Explained: What's Included, What's Not, and What Matters Ireland vacation deals are designed to be attractive – but what looks good at first glance may not be the vacation of your dreams. Step 1: Determine what attracted you to the deal Use the tips below to help you avoid Ireland vacation package purchase regret. Vacation packages are often marketed as ‘all or mostly inclusive' – but there are always additional costs. Were you attracted by the price? Cheap Ireland vacations may not be the best deal. You will be able to spot this as you break down the package. Were you attracted by the accommodations? A bit of research into the vacation package will reveal more about your lodging. Were you attracted by the images or description? Dig into the details and see if those places are included in the package or are just ‘suggestions'. Keep in mind what appealed to you as you dig into the deal. Step 2: Check the terms of the vacation package Review what is included in the package- and what is extra. Most vacation package deals show the lowest priced dates. If the dates can be changed how does that afftect the price? How is the vacation package priced? Most are based on 2 people, sharing. If you have a larger group how will you be accommodated (transportation, lodging, etc)? If you are a solo traveler are there extra charges? Be sure to read the terms and conditions! What is the cancellation policy? Might trip insurance be a good idea? (Don't purchase the travel insurance offered with the vacation package without doing your research! Read more about travel insurance for your Ireland vacation here.) Most importantly- who do you contact if you encounter a problem? Step 3: Know where the package will take you Does the package have a set itinerary? Does it take you to places you want to visit? If the package doesn't have an itinerary do you know how to plan what to see and do? (hint: I can help with that!)Free Itineraries – Vacation Coaching Calls – Bespoke Itinerary Creation Step 4: Review your transportation Where do flights depart? Can that be changed and, if so, how does that affect the cost? Can you get to the departure airport without further significant cost? Also note that many packages do not allow accrual of frequent flyer points and that children do not receive a special fare. Is car rental included? If so be aware that in most cases you will have to pay for insurance upon arrival in Ireland. Resource: Car Rental & Driving Guide. Pay close attention to Ireland Car Rental Insurance and Yes You Can Rent a Car if You are Over 70 (if applicable). If your tour is guided check all information on pick up, drop off, and how you will be transported. Also be aware that guided tours do not include a gratuity in the package cost. If your tour includes rail be sure to study a rail map and figure out how you will get from the city hubs into the country to visit the sites you want to see. Read more: Traveling Around Ireland: Trains, Buses, and Automobiles Step 5: Check the accommodations Will you be in a single location or will you be switching accommodation during your trip? Check the drive times to your first night's lodging from the airport and your final night's lodging to the airport. That 2 hour drive may not seem like a lot until you realize your flight from Dublin leaves at 9am and you need to arrive 3 hours prior to boarding to clear all the security points. If the accommodations are set are they near places you want to see and visit? For packages offering hotel stays check hotel ratings. Be sure to see if there is an ‘alternate' hotel in case the first hotel isn't available. (Trip Advisor is a great resource for this). If staying at a luxury property check to see if those great resort activities (like a Hawk Walk, horseback riding, or 5* dinner) are included in your package or if they will carry an additional charge. As you review the vacation package you'll easily see if it is as great a deal as it first appeared or if the tour is the right fit for you.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are joined yet again by our pal Andrew Skurka and wayyyyy back former guest and now co-director of Skurka Adventures, Katie Gerber aka "Salty". Today's episode covers a lot of ground.  Today's conversation is part backpacking advice, part gear nerd chat, part a glimpse inside the operation at Skurka Adventures.  We first dive into Katie's list of the five biggest mistakes she made as a beginner backpacker and her take on why she loves her alcohol stove- after a decade of use. Andrew gives us an overview of vapor barrier layers and moisture management for cold-weather backpacking, the Ursack versus bear canister debate, he gives a framework for deciding exactly when it's time to hit the SOS button on your satellite communicator, the ethics of publicizing GPS tracks in these high consequence and fragile regions, and he shares his two cents on one of the most detailed bear-safety questions we've ever received. The duo also give us some standout stories from their years of working together, including a nightmarish and somehow hilarious story of surviving a Mojave Desert traffic jam in triple-digit heat. We wrap the show with a call for Trail Correspondents, if setting up your tent in the airport makes you a genius or an A-hole, the triple crown of winter drinks, and some fun Ibex facts from a listener.

What began as a seemingly foolproof investment with a strong pro forma turned into a cascade of unexpected challenges, including regulatory changes, ethical dilemmas, geopolitical risk, and international drama. In this episode, we talk about: Why smart people still make big business mistakes How external forces can derail even the best plans Learning from failure instead of hiding from it Resilience after financial and emotional setbacks The importance of mental health awareness for leaders and entrepreneurs Kevin's story is funny, sobering, and deeply human—and a powerful reminder that mistakes don't define us unless we refuse to learn from them.

I'm diving into why waiting until menopause to address hormones can be an incredibly costly mistake for so many women. Why are we told to "wait it out" when symptoms often start years earlier? And what's really happening inside our bodies long before our periods stop? I walk through the often-missed perimenopausal years and explain why this phase matters more than most of us realize. What if heavy periods, anxiety, weight gain, or insomnia aren't things you just have to tolerate? Could early hormone shifts be driving them? We also explore timing, myths, and fears around hormone replacement. How do you know when it's actually time to start paying attention? And what are the long-term consequences of ignoring these early warning signs for bones, brain, and heart health? In this episode, we uncover: Why waiting for menopause can ultimately worsen your long-term health outcomes. How perimenopause quietly begins years before your final period. What early hormone symptoms are often misdiagnosed or dismissed. How timing influences the benefits and safety of hormone support. Why listening to what your body is telling you matters more than arbitrary age rules.

Confidence grows through action, not intention. Did you know that confidence as a process? You do not wake up with it. You build it by doing the work, taking a step of faith, and sometimes missing the mark. Confidence forms through experience, reflection, and repetition. It develops when you act, before you feel certain. Mistakes strengthen your judgment, and real growth happens when you keep showing up even after things do not go as planned. Waiting to feel confident keeps you stuck. Moving forward creates the confidence you are looking for. This conversation is for doulas who want to trust themselves more, take meaningful action, and grow into their work through practice rather than perfection.

"'Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?' He (Jesus) said to him, 'You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'" Matthew 22: 36-39 Fr. Mike Schmitz warns us of the dangers of making our lives too full, even with good things. He reminds us of the beautiful quote from St. John of the Cross, "In the twilight of our lives, we will be judged on love alone."

Starting a webcomic in 2026 isn't about chasing algorithms or copying what's popular — it's about building something sustainable, creative, and yours. In this episode, Brad Guigar and Dave Kellett break down what new cartoonists actually need to focus on in their first years: writing first, consistency over hype, owning your work, and building an audience the right way.You'll learn why you don't need Webtoon or Tapas, why monetizing too early can derail your career, how social media really fits into comics growth today, and why a website and mailing list are non-negotiable. This is a marathon mindset episode for creators who want to do comics for the long haul — and do them for love.Getting off on the Right FootDon't try to “game” your readership. Write about what YOU like. Readers are drawn to a creator's passion. It doesn't work the other way around.Building readership takes time and consistency. Creating for love is essential in the early years.Focus on writing as the core of comic creation. They're called comics readers, not comics lookers. It's all about the writing.Focus on creating comics for the love of the craft. The first comics may only be seen by you; embrace the process.Mistakes in the early stages are recoverable. Stop fretting over them.Common copyright fears and how to approach themOwn and control your workBuilding an audienceYou do NOT need to be on Webtoon/Tapas. Look at the comics on the front pages of those sites? Does your comic look like those? Is your content similar? If not, you're not going to fare well there. It's pretty obvious.Social media presence is still important for comic creators. Today, we recommend Bluesky and Reddit. ComicLab has Collections that provide solid social-media strategies. They're free to members and available at a one-time fee for others.Be active on social media to build your audience. Follow the Four Cs — Creation, Curation, Commercial, and KindnessHow many updates? FCS — Frequent / Consistent / Significant — there are no magic numbers.Start building your mailing list NOW with a newsletter. This will be increasingly important when you turn to monetization in a few years. You should send every comic out in a newsletter post and you should also post a weekly newsletter of no longer than 500 words per update with BTS content (to the extent you're comfortable sharing).You need a website. This is not old or outdated — it's incredibly powerful, and you need to start planning for one now… even if it's a very bare-bones site. This is a non-negotiable.Consider The 2-2-1 Rule: Two social media platforms, two newsletters (including a free-membership tier on Patreon), one website. Then, use these together to funnel traffic inward towards the website. Later, when you've launched monetization, the funnel will direct towards that.Don't listen to your reader; listen to your readersDon't mistake social media followers for income.MonetizationDON'T START MONETIZING IN YOUR FIRST YEAR. Maybe not even the second. Everything you need to know about crowdfunding is in the name. First comes the crowd, THEN comes the funding. In the first few years, you need to focus on building that crowd. The only thing worse than having no Patreon backers is having ONE Patreon backer. Hundreds of new comic creators have become derailed by focusing on monetization too soon.Comic Cons: We don't recommend them. They don't build audience. They don't have great sales unless you have a lot of merch that *does well as in-person merch* (there's a difference!). And it's very hard to make profit unless you can religiously control costs. If you're making merch to go to the show, you're doing this all wrong. Psychologically, a lot of folks like to “play” professional cartoonist by exhitibiting.Accepted into show start making stuff to sell.Start planning now for print — hi-res (400+ dpi),  bigger than final size, cmyk, maintain layers, etc. Save in the native software.Marathon thinkingPersistence is key; it's a marathon, not a sprint. If you need a schedule to post regularly, set a schedule and stick to it.Develop your aesthetic by studying good comics.Seek honest feedback to improve your work.Reach out to other comics creators who are doing stuff that's similar to yours and build networks.
