On March 19th, Italians celebrate St. Joseph's Day—and the feast comes with iconic pastries. But depending on where you are in Italy, the traditional dessert can look very different.In this episode, we explore the difference between Zeppole di San Giuseppe from Naples and Sfince di San Giuseppe from Sicily. From choux pastry filled with crema and topped with amarena cherries to ricotta-covered fried dough decorated with pistachios and candied fruit, these sweets reveal how regional traditions shape Italian cuisine.

In this bold and controversial episode, Ray Higdon explains why being "nice" can hurt both your income and the people you are trying to serve. While many salespeople believe kindness alone is enough, Ray argues that excessive niceness often masks avoidance, weak posture, and a refusal to develop real sales skills. You will learn why caring about prospects sometimes requires courage instead of comfort, why authenticity without skill can limit impact, and how improving your sales ability actually helps more people transform their lives. Ray also breaks down the difference between being pushy and being bold—and why mastering scripts and frameworks is essential if you want consistent results. —  

Sometimes referred to as "the Uffizi of southern Italy," the Capodimonte Museum in Naples, Italy, houses one of the world's most important collections of Italian Renaissance painting. It includes masterpieces such as the "Crucifixion" by Masaccio, Titian's "Danaë" and  "Portrait of Pope Paul III," Caravaggio's "Flagellation," and Artemisia Gentileschi's "Judith and Holofernes," just to name a few.  

If sales feels exhausting, draining, or emotionally heavy, the problem may not be your workload—it may be your approach. In this episode, Ray Higdon explains why sales should not feel this exhausting and reveals the two core shifts that immediately reduce burnout: posture and lead flow. Most salespeople feel tired because they are chasing prospects, forcing conversations, and operating from desperation instead of confidence. Ray breaks down why posture—the ability to manage the energy of a conversation—is the opposite of chasing and how learning it instantly removes emotional friction from selling. He also explains why building lead generation alongside prospecting is essential for long-term sustainability and why relying on one without the other limits income. —

In this episode of Next on the Tee, I'm joined by two of the game's top instructors to help you lower your scores where it matters most—on the greens. Since nearly 40–50% of our strokes are with the putter, eliminating three-putts can make an immediate difference in your game. First up is top instructor Tom Patri, who shares insights from a putting clinic he hosted at Twin Eagles in Naples, Florida. Tom breaks down the fundamentals of the putting stroke, including whether it should be straight back and straight through or naturally arcing, how to aim the putter face more accurately, and whether the “ball under your lead eye” setup rule is fact or myth. In segment two, I'm joined by Taylor Crosby, Lead Instructor at The Kingdom at Lake Oconee, who discusses how golfers can achieve more center-face contact, what he commonly sees during putter fittings, and the differences between mallet and blade putters. Taylor also reveals one of the most overlooked fundamentals that we don't practice enough. If you want to make more putts, eliminate three-putts, and gain confidence on the greens, this episode is packed with practical golf tips, putting instruction, and insights from two of the game's best teachers. #GolfPodcast #GolfTips #PuttingTips #GolfInstruction #GolfLessons #TomPatri #TaylorCrosby #PutterFitting #LowerYourScores #GolfImprovement

Rejection is one of the biggest confidence killers in sales—but it doesn't have to be. In this episode, Ray Higdon explains how to stay confident after rejection and why most salespeople take rejection far too personally. The truth is, rejection is not a sign that you are failing—it is a normal part of growth, success, and mastery. Ray shares powerful perspective shifts that instantly remove the emotional sting of rejection, including why top authors, actors, and entrepreneurs faced massive rejection before succeeding. You will also learn how detaching from outcomes, focusing on activity, and reframing rejection as progress can dramatically increase your confidence and consistency. —  

Full Text of Readings Thursday of the Second Week of Lent Lectionary: 233 The Saint of the day is Saint John Joseph of the Cross Saint John Joseph of the Cross' Story Self-denial is never an end in itself but is only a help toward greater charity—as the life of Saint John Joseph of the Cross shows. John Joseph was very ascetic even as a young man. At 16, he joined the Franciscans in Naples; he was the first Italian to follow the reform movement of Saint Peter Alcantara. John Joseph's reputation for holiness prompted his superiors to put him in charge of establishing a new friary even before he was ordained. Obedience moved John Joseph to accept appointments as novice master, guardian and, finally, provincial. His years of mortification enabled him to offer these services to the friars with great charity. As guardian he was not above working in the kitchen or carrying the wood and water needed by the friars. When his term as provincial expired, John Joseph dedicated himself to hearing confessions and practicing mortification, two concerns contrary to the spirit of the dawning Age of Enlightenment. Saint John Joseph of the Cross was canonized in 1839. Reflection John Joseph's mortification allowed him to be the kind of forgiving superior intended by Saint Francis. Self-denial should lead us to charity—not to bitterness; it should help us clarify our priorities and make us more loving. John Joseph is living proof of Chesterton's observation: “It is always easy to let the age have its head; the difficult thing is to keep one's own” (G. K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy, page 101).Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

If sales have started to feel heavy, frustrating, or emotionally draining, the problem may not be your strategy—it may be your mindset. In this episode, Ray Higdon explains why sales feels hard and how simple mindset shifts can immediately change your experience and results. Most salespeople unknowingly tie their emotions to outcomes, rejection, and responses. But top performers detach from results and instead anchor themselves in activity, patience, and consistency. You will learn how to stop fearing rejection, why becoming addicted to activity transforms performance, and how shifting from "trying to close" to simply "seeing who's open" reduces pressure and increases conversions. Ray also explains why consistency, courage, and stepping outside your comfort zone are essential for success to become inevitable. —  

In this episode, Paul Hiltz, FACHE, President and CEO of Naples Comprehensive Health, discusses doubling the organization's size while maintaining independence and a top tier focus on quality and access.

Il a fallu un regard venu d'ailleurs pour réaliser combien l'amer incarnait l'Italie. Le souvenir d'Emmanuel Giraud, ancien résident de la Villa Medicis à Rome, et sa découverte des amers pour que le professeur italien Massimo Montanari réalise combien, en effet, l'amertume était une saveur foncièrement italienne.   Ce qui est vert est amer, ou la place centrale des végétaux dans la cuisine italienne. Expresso, radicchio, amaretto, roquette, tartes aux herbes amères, et autres artichauts : L'amertume est la note de fond de la cuisine italienne. Une cuisine aux racines paysannes, diverse, végétale, « la saveur amère caractérise principalement certaines espèces de plantes d'herbes, racines qui, surtout à l'état sauvage, ont un tel goût », explique Massimo Montanari dans Amaro. Une cuisine végétale, paysanne, dont la durabilité et la diversité bio culturelle sont devenues patrimoine. En décembre 2025, l'Unesco a en effet inscrit la cuisine italienne sur la liste des patrimoines immatériels de l'humanité précisément pour ces raisons. « La place centrale des végétaux dans la culture gastronomique italienne a conservé, au fil des siècles, une forte dimension populaire, un rapport étroit et constant avec la culture paysanne, qui, en plus de développer des savoirs et des pratiques liés aux travaux des champs et des jardins, a toujours veillé à intégrer aux ressources domestiquées celles restées sauvages, les produits des prés et des sous-bois, des fossés et des zones humides. Ainsi, s'est vraisemblablement établie l'habitude du goût amer ».   Ne le faites pas savoir aux paysans Nous découvrons avec cet amer une autre manière de raconter les hiérarchies, les rapports entre les classes sociales. Aux paysans qui connaissaient les plantes, et récoltaient les herbes sauvages, les cardons, les roquettes, et autres salades amères, les gentilhommes multipliaient les stratagèmes pour s'assurer que ces plantes présentées comme « rustiques », leur seraient réservées, car délicieuses et accessoirement aussi bonnes pour la santé. Pour s'assurer enfin que la connaissance et le savoir restaient au sein de l'espace des privilèges et du pouvoir des classes dirigeantes. « C'est ainsi, selon la définition de Pierandrea Mattioli, qu'un produit cultivé par la nature, devint artificiellement civilisée en intégrant la haute cuisine pour parfumer les viandes fines et les canards rôtis. » Le pays de l'amer Dans cet essai malicieux et érudit, Massimo Montanari nous offre à nous, non Italiens, une lecture toute en finesse de son pays et de ses compatriotes, avec une délicieuse autodérision. Nous retiendrons « qu'il faut apprendre à goûter l'amer, les amers, mais quand on les a découverts, on ne peut plus s'en passer ». Avec Massimo Montanari, professeur, historien, spécialiste de l'histoire de l'alimentation, auteur de Amaro, un goût italien, aux éditions Macula. « Parler d'alimentation, de nourriture, c'est parler du monde, parce que c'est le geste le plus important de la vie, le geste alimentaire et tout ce qu'il y a autour : l'économie, la technologie, les rapports sociaux, une très bonne perspective pour regarder autour de soi ». Le livre qui a permis à Massimo Montinari de prendre conscience du goût des Italiens pour l'amer est « L'amer » d'Emmanuel Giraud, paru aux éditions Les ateliers d'Argol. Dans l'émission, aussi, Alexandre Bella Ola, le cuisinier auteur de « Les cuisines d'Afrique noire » chez First, raconte le N'dolè. Il est question de « High on the hog », la part du lion de l'historienne américaine de l'alimentation, Dr Jessica B. Harris. De santé et du corps qui s'éveille et s'ébroue après l'hiver, avec un extrait de la newsletter Substack Achillée mille vertus, de Jennifer Hart Smith, naturopathe, cuisinière et autrice, à retrouver ici Il est question à plusieurs reprises du botaniste italien Constanzo Felici. Pour aller plus loin - La cucina leggera, de Laura Zavan, éditions Hachette cuisine. - In cucina, d'Alba Pezzone. Et la musique ? L'équipe de la playlist nous propose Tive razao, de Seu Jorge.   La recette La tourte aux herbes et au parmesan, de Laura Zavan, à découvrir sur son site.

Are your prospects ghosting you after showing interest? If people say they're interested, ask for the video, and then disappear, the problem may not be your leads—it may be your posture. In this episode, Ray Higdon breaks down the real reason prospects stop responding and how subtle shifts in posture and positioning dramatically affect your close rate. Most salespeople assume ghosting is a prospect problem. But in reality, prospects respond to energy, positioning, and how conversations are led. Ray explains why chasing repels prospects, how speaking above a prospect's position creates resistance, and how to follow up without sounding needy or desperate. You will also learn a simple follow-up framework that creates urgency, filters serious prospects, and increases closing percentages. If you are in sales, network marketing, direct sales, or entrepreneurship, this episode will help you stop getting ghosted and start leading conversations with confidence and clarity. Keywords naturally included: why prospects stop responding, sales ghosting, handling unresponsive prospects, sales posture, follow-up strategies, closing more sales, network marketing training, sales positioning, improving response rates, prospecting mistakes —  

Daniel Chamberlain and Coach Kenny Simpson open with February coaching updates, including state conventions, the coaching carousel, and clinic season, and discuss the difference between social/job-networking clinics and scheme-intensive clinics. They share an Abraham Lincoln discipline quote and relate it to the GWAT 100 February mileage challenge. Kenny promotes his books (Complete Guide to Buck Sweep from the Shotgun and O-10 to 10-0), the Gun-T system update (7.0), and the move of Gun-T resources to gunteesystem.com, then lists upcoming Gun-T clinics (Sacramento, Houston, Ohio, Boston, and a newly added Tampa clinic March 20–21). Daniel promotes the 4-2-5 Defense Clinic in Boston (March 13–14), possible Naples, Florida dates, speakers including Brady Bradbury and a Massachusetts state-championship coach host, and notes early-bird pricing and hotel deadlines. The main topic is in-game adjustments: defining them as planned, built-in counters to unexpected looks or opponent changes (personnel, fronts, coverages, or targeted matchups), not desperation play-calling. They emphasize preparing adjustments in the offseason, keeping a small, concept-based system with tags, practicing answers during the week, assigning coaches specific “eyes” (front, back end, formations, fits), and communicating clearly between drives and at halftime, with great coaches adjusting in real time. Examples include flood-and-go, pop pass, false pulls, and formation changes when opponents struggle to align. They discuss evaluating adjustment ability (between drives vs halftime vs “we'll fix it next week”), and the importance of writing down halftime plans. A “situation of the week” covers facing an unexpected bear front after preparing for two-high; Kenny explains abandoning dead scripted calls, using numbers/space and built-in tools, and coordinating quick conversations with line and QB coaches to adjust run game, protections, and pass/RPO answers before the next series. They close with sponsor mentions (Aport video boards and fundraising, Winning Edge Performance Analytics, Blended Threads), and share where to find them and the podcast on social media.00:00 Welcome + February Coaching Carousel & Clinic Season00:30 State Conventions: Networking, Gossip, and What Clinics Are Really For02:55 Quote of the Week: Discipline (Lincoln) + Team Themes Update04:14 G-Watt 100 Challenge: Discipline in Real Life05:42 Books, Gun-T System Updates, and New Website Resources07:56 Upcoming Clinics Tour + 4-2-5 Boston Details12:45 Today's Topic: What Are In-Game Adjustments?19:03 Why In-Game Adjustments Matter (Neutralize Strengths, Exploit Weaknesses)24:39 How Great Coaches Adjust: Between Drives, Halftime, and Preparation30:16 Practical Steps: Defensive Adjustment Process (Don't Chase Ghosts)31:29 Defensive End-Game Adjustments: Stop the Star, Pressure the Backup QB33:03 Offensive Built-In Answers: Tags, Flood-and-Go, and Planning for Counters34:08 Practice Like Friday: Scout-Team Freedom & Midweek Adjustment Reps35:51 Coach's Eyes & In-Game Communication: Assigning Keys and Spotting Trends36:50 Halftime Case Study: Real Adjustments vs Desperation Calls38:24 Pregame Film Study & Learning from Officials' Keys41:46 Write It Down: Call Sheets, Walking Halftime Meetings, and Staying Organized43:15 System Design: Modular Tags, Communicable Calls, and Player Ownership49:11 Situation of the Week: Too-High to Bear Front—Immediate Game-Day Response55:37 Sponsors, Clinics, Where to Find Us, andDaniel Chamberlain: @CoachChamboOK ChamberlainFootballConsulting@gmail.com chamberlainfootballconsulting.com Kenny Simpson: @FBCoachSimpson fbcoachsimpson@gmail.com FBCoachSimpson.com

If you want to close more sales, you may be focusing on the wrong part of the process. In this episode, Ray Higdon reveals why closing actually starts much earlier than most salespeople think—and shares three practical action steps you can apply immediately to increase conversions. You will learn why talking to more people dramatically improves close rates, how closing begins the moment you start interacting with a prospect, and why expanding the problem (without manipulating it) naturally leads to stronger buying decisions. Ray also explains why waiting for marketing to work is one of the biggest income killers in modern sales. If you are in sales, network marketing, direct sales, coaching, or entrepreneurship, this episode will help you close more deals by improving activity, posture, and conversation strategy.   —

In Money and Promises: Seven Deals That Changed the World, the distinguished banker, executive, and historian Paolo Zannoni examines the complex relationship between states and banks that has changed the world. Drawing on in-depth archival research, he explores seven case studies: the republic of Pisa, seventeenth-century Venice, the early years of the Bank of England, imperial Spain, the Kingdom of Naples, the nascent United States during the American Revolution, and Bolshevik Russia in 1917 through 1923. Zannoni also tells the story of how the Continental Congress established the first public bank in North America, exploring the roles of Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and Alexander Hamilton. Spanning many countries, political systems, and historical eras, this book shows that at the heart of these institutions is an intricate exchange of debts and promises.

This week we're excited to present a conversation from the 63rd New York Film Festival with Pompei: Below the Clouds director Gianfranco Rosi as he discusses his documentary with FLC programmer Dan Sullivan. An NYFF63 selection, Pompei: Below the Clouds opens at Film at Lincoln Center on March 6th with in-person filmmaker Q&As at select screenings opening weekend. Get tickets now at filmlinc.org/clouds The great Italian documentarian Gianfranco Rosi (Notturno, NYFF58) specializes in kaleidoscopic portraits of people living amid anxiety and uncertainty. Among his most striking and monumental works, his latest details with pointillist precision and unnerving beauty a region in Naples living under the shadow of Mount Vesuvius and above the simmering Campi Flegrei volcanic caldera, which has in recent years experienced increasingly frequent and alarming tremors. In this volatile environment, Rosi finds archeologists reckoning with both uncovered ancient artifacts and the wreckage of tomb raiders, squads of diggers descending into long abandoned tunnels, emergency centers already at breaking points, and a populace experiencing a generalized daily disquietude, fearful of an eruption like the one that buried Pompeii in 79 A.D. Linking modern and ancient life, Pompei: Below the Clouds alights on a specific region yet feels connected to everyone's contemporary moment—the contemplation of the unimaginable nestled within our daily existence. An NYFF63 Main Slate selection. A MUBI release. The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.

If your prospects are controlling the conversation, you have already lost. In this episode, Ray Higdon breaks down why sales reps and leaders must stop letting prospects push them around—and how to reclaim authority without becoming defensive, arrogant, or aggressive. The foundation of confident selling is belief. If you do not fully believe in your product, service, or opportunity, prospects will feel it instantly. Ray explains why conviction is the first requirement of sales posture and how making the prospect "the prize" destroys your positioning. You will also learn powerful responses to common objections like "Is this a scam?" and "How much money are you making?"—including how to answer confidently even if you are brand new and have not made money yet. If you are in sales, network marketing, direct sales, coaching, or entrepreneurship, this episode will help you manage the frame of the conversation, increase authority, and close more sales without people-pleasing.   —

Send a textAsh Wednesday begins the Catholic season of Lent — a time when the Church calls us to remember death, judgment, and eternity. In this true Catholic account from Naples in 1707, St. Francis of Jerome warns a woman who mocked the reality of hell. Eight days later, the warning was fulfilled.This sobering episode reminds us of the Four Last Things: death, judgment, heaven, and hell — eternal realities taught by the Catholic Church and proclaimed in Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition. Lent is a season of repentance, conversion, and returning to the grace of God through prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.St. Alphonsus Liguori wrote that those who frequently meditate on the Four Last Things are far less likely to fall into mortal sin. The Church, in her wisdom, places this meditation before us at the beginning of Lent so that we may examine our conscience, seek the Sacrament of Confession, and prepare our souls for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and the glory of Easter.Has the modern world forgotten the reality of judgment? Have we grown comfortable with sin and resistant to grace? This true Catholic story is not meant to frighten for its own sake — but to awaken the soul to the urgency of salvation.This is Episode 1 of Lent Daily — our Catholic Lenten reflection series sharing true accounts from Catholic tradition that call us back to holiness and eternal perspective.Support the showSupport this show and get all future episodes by email atwww.kenandjanelle.com

Most sales reps believe that closing more sales requires being more aggressive, more persuasive, or more pushy. That belief is costing you deals. In this episode, Ray Higdon breaks down the fastest no-pressure way to increase your sales conversions—and it has nothing to do with pressure tactics. It has everything to do with posture. Ray explains how managing the energy of the conversation changes everything. When prospects pull away, most untrained reps lean in harder. But the opposite approach—maintaining strong posture and pulling back—actually increases authority, trust, and conversion rates. If you are in sales, network marketing, direct sales, affiliate marketing, or team leadership, this episode will show you how to close more deals without feeling pushy, desperate, or aggressive. —

A London gravedigger spent two years quietly digging up the dead by day and selling their bodies, teeth, and severed limbs to hospitals by night — with a 14-year-old girl holding the basket.HEAR THE NEW SONG FOR THIS EPISODE! https://youtu.be/7_uVLP_0YUM *** For the final story in this podcast episode, "Knights, Dragons, and Dino DNA"... “DINOSAUR” is a pop-punk thought experiment about ancient monsters, biblical beasts, and the uncomfortable possibility that some things might not be as settled as we're told. From Behemoth to Leviathan to a certain long-necked lake resident, the song asks a simple question: if it looks like a dinosaur, sounds like a dinosaur, and terrifies everyone like a dinosaur… what exactly are we waiting for? It's a raised eyebrow to long-held beliefs set to power chords. (Interpret responsibly.)IN THIS EPISODE: The Phaistos Disc was discovered in 1903, by Italian archaeologists in southern Crete. Since then the disc has remained a mystery as no one has been able to decipher the writings upon it, nor who made the object, what was it used for, and even if it's a genuine archaeological discovery or a clever fake. (The Phaistos Disc) *** Usually you learn that a place is haunted simply because people say it is. It's common knowledge around the town or neighborhood… but when the government of your country says a place is haunted, you'd better danged well listen. Such is the case with India's Bhangarh Fort. (Bhangarh Fort – The Most Haunted Place in India) *** At the end of 1894 French army captain Alfred Dreyfus, a graduate of the École Polytechnique, and a Jew of Alsatian origin, was accused of handing secret documents to the Imperial German military. After a closed trial, he was found guilty of treason and sentenced to life imprisonment on the dreaded Devil's Island. But that's just the beginning of the story that later became known as The Dreyfus Affair. (The Dreyfus Affair) *** We've all heard of the power of the mind – it's been shown to be beneficial in the treatment of pain, some well-trained individuals can use their mind to slow their rate of respiration, to bring their heartbeat down to almost nothing with no long-term ill effects… but what about controlling things outside of your own body? Is the mind that powerful? Some believe so – and they also believe it's one possible explanation for hauntings. (The Wild PK of the Poltergeist) *** Is it possible that our history books are wrong and that humans actually did walk with dinosaurs? It might not be as far-fetched as it sounds, especially when you look at tales of knights, dragons, and T-Rex DNA. (Knights, Dragons, and Dino DNA) *** We'll have a short tale about Joseph Naples… who chose the macabre career of being a grave digger… but only because it made it easier for him to be a grave robber… and a body snatcher.

If your sales team is underperforming, there's a strong chance you're missing one critical metric—and it's quietly costing you revenue every single month. In this episode, Ray Higdon reveals the leadership blind spot most sales leaders never track: activity. While many leaders obsess over sales numbers, rank advancements, and new customers, they often ignore the one thing that actually drives those results. Ray explains why tracking activity—not just outcomes—is essential for improving sales performance, increasing production, and preventing leadership burnout. He also breaks down how recognizing effort (not just results), running activity-based contests, and setting weekly activity goals can dramatically improve team morale and consistency. If you're a sales leader, network marketing leader, entrepreneur, or manager, this episode will help you eliminate sabotage, focus your time on the right people, and increase revenue without working longer hours. —
