Dean Kinzer is an ancient coin enthusiast, YouTuber, and entrepreneur on a mission to bring the magic of history—literally held in your hand—to more Americans. What started as a family hobby, inspired by his collector father, has grown into a side business and educational passion. Dean is the founder of Kinzer Coins and co-host of the Ancient Coin Hour podcast, where he helps collectors and history buffs discover the stories and value behind ancient coins. On this episode we talk about: – Dean's journey from growing up with a collector dad (who owned 13 Yugos!) to becoming obsessed with ancient coins – The “tribute penny” of Tiberius—possibly the coin referenced by Jesus in the Bible—and how affordable ancient coins can actually be – The wild stories behind some of history's most fascinating coins, like Brutus's “Ides of March” gold coin and the emperor who bought his throne for 66 days – How ancient coins are more than metal—they're pieces of art, history, and conversation starters – The surprising abundance of certain ancient coins (you can literally buy Roman bronze coins by the pound!) – Why the U.S. market for ancient coins is still wide open, and how Dean is working to popularize the hobby – The business side: consignments, inventory, and the challenge of parting with pieces that tell powerful stories – How to avoid scams, spot counterfeits, and start collecting with confidence – The magic of holding a 2,000-year-old coin and the deep connection it creates to human history – Monetizing your hobby in the digital age—YouTube, podcasts, and building a business around your passion Top 3 Takeaways 1. History in Your Hand: Ancient coins aren't just collectibles—they're tangible links to the past, each with a story that can spark conversation and curiosity. 2. Monetize Your Passion: You can turn even the most niche hobby into a side business or educational platform with the right approach and a willingness to share. 3. Start Smart, Avoid Pitfalls: Learn the basics, connect with reputable sellers, and use resources like Ancient Coin Hour to avoid costly mistakes and enjoy the hobby. Notable Quotes – “There's something different about holding something that's 2,000 years old. It's a connection to history you can actually feel.” – “Every coin tells a story—some are worthy of a Hollywood movie.” – “The U.S. market for ancient coins is wide open.

We want to hear from you. If you're open to a quick chat with our producer, it only takes a few seconds to sign up: https://forms.gle/TTdgZ9R6HykpPaEh6In this episode, I sit down with Brendan Kane—strategist, speaker, and author of Hook Point—to talk about what really drives social media success. Spoiler alert: it's not hacks, trends, or frequency. Brendan breaks down why storytelling beats every algorithm trick in the book and how creators can find sustainable, repeatable success by understanding proven content formats. We dive deep into the five steps to virality, what most people get wrong about content creation, and why shifting from passive to active consumption can transform your strategy. Brendan also unpacks what formats are, why they unlock creativity (not restrict it), and how even a single tweak in your delivery can massively shift performance. If you've ever felt like you're spinning your wheels online, this conversation will help you realign your approach and focus on what actually works.Timestamps:(00:00) - Introduction(01:02) - Why storytelling matters(03:26) - Algorithms favor great stories(06:01) - Five-step social media success formula(08:57) - The role of content formats(12:10) - Format vs. trend: the big shift(15:23) - How to find your winning format(18:12) - What makes a video go viral(21:40) - Creating ideas within formats(25:00) - Real example: Tanner's bag deconstructions(28:34) - Monetizing without selling(31:15) - ROI = size of your vision(33:50) - Why consistency and time matter(36:28) - One video at a time(38:45) - Learning through reflection(40:55) - Final thoughts and teaser for Part 2Check out today's guest, Brendan Kane:Brendan's Website: https://brendanjkane.com/Brendan's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BrendanJamesKane/Brendan's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brendankane/?hl=enBrendan's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BrendanKane/Check out The Futur:Website: https://www.thefutur.com/Courses: https://www.thefutur.com/shopLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-futur/Podcasts: https://thefutur.com/podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thefuturishere/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theFuturisHere/Twitter: https://x.com/thefuturishereTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thefuturishereYoutube:https://www.youtube.com/thefuturishereCheck out Chris Do:Website: https://zaap.bio/thechrisdoLinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/thechrisdo/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/BizOfDesignInstagram:
If artistic painters can decide prices for their work, why shouldn't filmmakers and video content creators? https://vidafair.com/ VidaFair is a new pay-per-rental video monetization platform based on fair pricing and transactions between creators and consumers. VidaFair allows video creators to set their own fee for 24-hour video stream rentals of their content. Video viewers pay the content creator fee and a small fee to VidaFair, without being asked to subscribe to anything, ever. Creators and viewers get the safety and security of the PayPal payment processing. We do believe content creators should set their own prices Just like painters, photographers, interior decorators and a whole host of other creative professionals who set prices for their work, we believe film and video producers should have the freedom to dream, create and then charge what they see fit. Content creators know best the costs, time spent and market demand for their work. We do respect and compensate creators VidaFair represents a significant paradigm shift from other platforms, where content creators can only ever receive a tiny fraction of the proceeds for their work, or are charged platform fees based on a percentage of rental price. We've been content creators ourselves. We do respect and protect video consumers Your viewing habits are no one else's business but yours. We accept no corporate sponsorships, no data sharing arrangements and no advertising. Our revenue model is simple and clear -- reasonable fees to host and stream video which are a function of file size, not the creators' prices. Nothing else under the radar, over the radar or otherwise. Sometimes a service that's marketed as "free," isn't as free as people think. We don't own anyone's content Some very well known video streaming platforms bury tricky copyright transfer language in long, complex "Terms of Service" agreements. At VidaFair, by contrast, all content remains the property of the content creators. We will never assert ownership of any film or video, ever. We don't waste your time Do you really want to watch advertisements? Or have them interrupt your film or video? We don't. Nor do we think your time is "free." Other platforms surprise viewers with advertisements they neither want, nor expect. On VidaFair, we don't sell your time to outside groups or companies through ads. We don't run other businesses We don't run search engines, email services or marketing campaigns. We don't send ads to creators or viewers, or sell information to anyone about viewers' preferences. And it goes beyond just a matter of personal privacy. In a broader way, we believe more content platforms will always be healthier than fewer, because a social media landscape of very few extremely powerful behemoths poses societal risks. We don't offer, nor allow subscriptions We believe subscriptions can sometimes be a slick way customers get charged for services they don't use. At VidaFair, every streaming video rental is specifically authorized. Since there are no subscriptions on VidaFair, there's never such a thing as “forgetting to unsubscribe.” No VidaFair transaction ever automatically repeats. You decide every purchase on the VidaFair platform. That's how we want to be treated when we use an internet site.

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you through the rest of your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed sponsorships for Tyler's wedding, the Oilers' Game 1 loss, the penalty kill disaster, and much more.The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a discussion about the playoffs and how Jay is taking a loyal Oilers fan from Jacksonville to Game 3 on Sunday. As you'll hear, Jay has a flight to London less than four hours after puck drop and hearing him work through the time math was fascinating. Needless to say, the turnaround from game to airport is incredibly tight, and it will be a wild ride to follow through Sunday afternoon.From there, the guys worked out a few ideas on how Tyler can monetize his wedding. Starting with the vows being sponsored by Oodle Noodle. While Tyler tried to push the narrative that there won't be any vows at his wedding, that didn't stop the boys from pitching different angles on getting the midnight dinner comped anyway. Will the boys get their way? Will Tyler avoid having logos everywhere on his special day?Finally getting to the Oilers, the guys walked through the Game 1 disaster that saw Edmonton dominate for the first 40 minutes before soiling themselves in the final period. While that game ended as poorly as it did, the boys are still feeling confident that the Oilers will be able to figure it out and get back in the series. That said, there are plenty of details the Oilers need to clean up if they're planning to make that happen.

On this week's episode of Uncontested Investing, we unpack one of the most recession-resistant, overlooked niches in the game: self-storage investing. It may not sound sexy, but storage units are delivering strong, stable cash flow with low risk, minimal management headaches, and surprisingly scalable upside. We break down how smart investors are leveraging storage to diversify their portfolios, reduce liability, automate operations, and add value through tech, partnerships, and even RV/boat parking. If you're looking for an asset that's pandemic-proven, economically resilient, and built for automation, this episode lays out the full playbook. Key Talking Points of the Episode 00:00 Introduction 01:11 Why self-storage is an important asset class 02:30 Space is at a premium even in small living units and tiny homes 03:53 No toilets, no tenants, low maintenance = high margin 06:05 Built-in tech: smart locks, remote gate access, cameras, mobile pay 07:09 The flexibility and accessibility in self-storage 08:50 Using virtual assistance to build local partnerships 11:04 Value-add strategies: paving lots, updating tech, U-Haul affiliate income 12:48 Co-sign with trusted names (like U-Haul) 14:11 Monetizing self-storage space for RVs, boats, trailers 15:52 Market versatility: how it works in rural, suburban, and urban areas 17:30 Having your VA cold calling for occupancy Quotables “Storage is one of the only asset classes that's recession-resistant, pandemic-proven, and still scaling.” “No tenants, no toilets, and no trash—it's the dream trifecta for passive investors.” “If you own a rental portfolio, you're already halfway there. Cross-sell storage to your tenants and watch your cash flow grow.” Links RCN Capital https://www.rcncapital.com/podcast https://www.instagram.com/rcn_capital/ info@rcncapital.com REI INK https://rei-ink.com/

As podcasters we kind of have to be obsessed with what's next. It's way too easy to get stuck in the churn of what's happening right now, and we have to focus on the next big guest, your next recording date, that next launch and the product you'll have next year. That's part of being a podcaster and business owner and being a high achiever. You always have to be looking around corners and figuring out what's next before your competition does. It can be really hard to get out of this mindset, because it's so critical to the success of most parts of our lives, but for most podcasters I know, that's distracting you from the treasure trove of what you've already created.In this episode we're talking about why your back catalog matters, organizing your archive, repurposing, and how to effectively market your past episodes for the future growth of your podcast.
