Nasiru Ibrahim — an architect from Nigeria and a new adventure rider — sets out on his first true motorcycle journey with a simple idea: ride his Yamaha Ténéré to the Ténéré Desert. It's an ambitious first trip, fueled by equal parts curiosity and confidence. Heading north through regions where the language and culture feel familiar, he anticipates the usual challenges — long distances, fatigue, border crossings, and the uncertainties of travelling solo. Instead, a routine stop in a small desert town leads to his arrest and detention in a politically tense region. What follows is a two-week ordeal far from home, as he navigates uncertainty, bureaucracy, and the stark realization of how quickly an adventure can take an unexpected turn.

Dans One Hit Wonder, Margaux Lassalle s'interroge : peut-on vraiment qualifier Kaiser Chiefs de groupe à succès unique ? En France, leur nom reste souvent associé à "Ruby". Pourtant, la formation originaire de Leeds, d'abord connue sous le nom de Parva avant d'adopter son patronyme actuel en hommage au club sud-africain Kaizer Chiefs, a construit une carrière bien plus riche. Dès 2005, le groupe mené par Ricky Wilson frappe fort avec "Employment", porté par "I Predict a Riot", "Everyday I Love You Less and Less" et "Oh My God". Ce premier disque, aux influences new wave et punk rock, leur vaut plusieurs Brit Awards. Ils confirment en 2007 avec "Yours Truly, Angry Mob", qui contient "Ruby" mais aussi "The Angry Mob", puis enchaînent avec "Off with Their Heads", porté par "Never Miss a Beat". Toujours actifs, les Kaiser Chiefs ont poursuivi l'aventure au fil des années, jusqu'à "Kaiser Chiefs' Easy Eighth Album", paru en 2024, confirmant leur évolution vers un son plus pop et dansant.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Motorcycles have evolved, and with that evolution comes more electronics — including CAN bus systems that many riders still misunderstand. If you've ever seen a mysterious warning light or struggled with adding accessories like auxiliary lights, you've probably heard CAN bus blamed. In this episode, we break down what CAN bus actually is, why it's not the enemy of customization, and how modern systems can actually create more opportunity for riders who understand them.

As creatives you possess one of the rarest business skills there is, and you've had it all along... While visiting the breathtaking mountains of Glencoe on Scotland's west coast and the snowdrop gardens of Cambo on the east, I realised something profound about how we as creative business owners naturally see the world. We have this extraordinary ability to take in enormous scale while simultaneously noticing the tiniest details. And it's this dual vision we discuss in this week's episode as it's what makes the difference between good businesses and exceptional ones. Key Moments: [01:28] A trip to Scotland sparks a reflection on what it truly means to see the bigger picture and the tiny detail: why this ability is one of the most valuable things you have as a creative [03:59] The mountains of Glencoe and the snowdrops of Cambo: what the contrast between enormous scale and intricate detail reveals about how creatives naturally think [06:08]  How this dual vision translates directly into business: seeing where you're heading while knowing exactly which details will make the difference for your clients [10:48] Why you don't need to become someone different to thrive and why fully embracing who you already are is the real work Notable Quotes: "You have this extraordinary ability to see what others miss.

On this episode of Exclusively Van Halen, we dive into an article spotlighting three Van Halen songs that helped define—and dominate—the 1980s. From Eddie Van Halen's mind-blowing guitar wizardry to the band's explosive mix of hard rock and pop hooks, there's no question Van Halen had the entire decade in a headlock. Whether you lived through the '80s or discovered them later and became obsessed, these are essential tracks every fan needs to know. First up, “Hot for Teacher.” It may have only reached No. 56 on the Billboard charts, but its music video became an instant '80s classic. Featuring a cast that included Yano Anaya (the bully from A Christmas Story) and a Miss Canada runner-up, the video followed younger versions of the band and a nerdy kid named Waldo through a wild fantasy high school—bikini-clad teachers and all. Controversial? Sure. Iconic? Absolutely. Between the over-the-top visuals, cheeky lyrics, and Eddie's blazing guitar work, it's pure Van Halen magic. Then there's “Unchained,” a powerhouse track from the 1981 album Fair Warning. With its swagger, attitude, and unforgettable riff, it stands as one of the band's heaviest and coolest moments. Eddie's use of the MXR M-117 flanger helped give the song its unmistakable sound, while producer Ted Templeman later called it the perfect example of Van Halen being “a heavy metal band with a sense of humor.” Raw, loud, and unforgettable. And of course, you can't talk about songs that took the '80s by storm without “Jump.” Van Halen's biggest hit ever broke new ground with its synth-driven sound and uplifting energy. Set in the bright key of C major, it felt like nothing the band had done before—yet it still delivered that unmistakable Van Halen punch. Eddie's one-take guitar solo seals the deal, soaring right alongside those legendary keyboards that hook you from the very first note. Three songs. One band. Total '80s takeover.

What happens when two seasoned overland riders trade full-size adventure bikes for 50cc, 50-year-old two-strokes? German engineers Bea Höbenreich and Helmut Koch set out to prove that real motorcycle adventure isn't about horsepower or gear—it's about mindset. From Australia's punishing outback to Cape York's legendary Old Telegraph Track, they battled bike drownings, deep sand, brutal creek crossings, and relentless headwinds on the smallest machines in the landscape.

What if the modest goals keeping you "safe" are actually holding you back? This episode explores why thinking bigger, in a way that's deeply aligned with your strengths often feels easier and more fulfilling than playing small. Through real stories from creative entrepreneurs who've made the leap, we examine the difference between incremental tweaking and visionary thinking, and why your impossible dream might just be exactly what your business needs   Key Moments: [00:00] The pattern of playing it safe and why "manageable" goals might be limiting your potential [01:31] Jo's pivotal moment: from waiting for £300 consultations to proposing full-day retreats at organic farm venues [05:10] My personal dream I didn't dare share [07:44] Why aiming for 2x growth keeps you optimising the same approach, while 10x thinking forces complete reimagination [10:03] Marta's revelation: "A successful business will not only sustain you financially, but also as a person emotionally" [13:33] What actually happened when I held onto my impossible dream, how it changed every decision and accelerated growth [18:35] The shift: when you're working towards something genuinely fulfilling [19:55] Framing your impossible dream    Notable Quotes: "When you aim for 2x growth, you think in terms of doing more of the same, just slightly better. When you think in terms of 10x, you can't just do more of the same. You have to completely reimagine what's possible."   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's Full Journal Post Read: 10x Is Easier Than 2x by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy Link: The Base Notes Waitlist Subscribe to our Weekly newsletter Website: www.philippacraddock.com Email: hello@philippacraddock.com    Share Your Insights: What's your impossible dream?

On this episode of Exclusively Van Halen on Johnny Beane TV, we dive into one of the most intense turning points in rock history—when Van Halen lost David Lee Roth and nearly tore themselves apart in the studio. “He locked himself in the studio and threatened to burn the tapes…”—a dramatic stand-off that symbolized the chaos inside the band. But with the arrival of Sammy Hagar and help from Mick Jones of Foreigner, Van Halen regrouped, reloaded, and proved the April Fool's Day announcement was no joke. We break down how the band rebounded from losing a superstar frontman and came back stronger—ultimately winning the “war” and launching a new era that took them straight to the top of the charts.

In this episode of Sales & Cigars, Walter Crosby sits down with Nick Massaro of Membrane for a candid, no-BS conversation about what actually holds good salespeople back. From early sales foundations and structured training to the mindset traps that quietly derail deals, this episode digs into the space between opening and closing—the part most reps avoid and where deals are truly won or lost. Nick shares his journey into sales, the evolution of his mindset, and the hard-earned realization that being "the most liked rep" is often a sign something went wrong. Together, they unpack the dangers of approval-seeking, why discomfort is part of great selling, and how modern buyers require a different kind of leadership from sales professionals. This is a grounded, honest conversation for salespeople who want to stop getting compliments instead of contracts. Episode Highlights Why "You were the best rep" is often a kiss of death The difference between opening deals and advancing them How early structure shaped Nick's sales foundation The mindset shift required to lead buyers without controlling them Why avoiding money conversations quietly kills deals Selling outcomes vs. selling features—especially in complex software Letting go of approval to ask better questions What great sales and good parenting surprisingly have in common Key Takeaways Being liked doesn't equal being effective The middle of the deal—not the open or close—is where salespeople grow Approval-seeking prevents tough (necessary) conversations Buyers are in control—but salespeople must still lead Discovery isn't about sounding smart; it's about creating clarity Authenticity beats polish every time Process creates freedom, not rigidity Who Should Listen This episode is for: Salespeople who hear "we loved you" more than "we're buying" Reps who love prospecting but struggle with deal momentum Sales leaders coaching mindset, not just activity Anyone selling complex or non-commodity solutions Business owners trying to understand what their sales team is really up against About the Guest Nick Massaro is a sales professional at Membrane with a background spanning insurance, SaaS, and sales-as-a-service environments. Known for his authenticity and curiosity, Nick brings a thoughtful perspective on modern selling—one rooted in structure, accountability, and continuous improvement.

On this episode of Exclusively Van Halen, we celebrate the anniversary of A Different Kind of Truth!

There's something about being on a motorcycle that just feels right — in ways that are hard to explain, but easy to recognize. Not long ago on the show, cognitive scientist Mark Changizi, author of Motorcycle Mind, talked about how riding a motorcycle is unlike anything else we do, because the physics involved mean the bike responds directly to your body — your balance, your inputs, your movement — reacting instantly, almost like a hybrid of human and machine moving as one. That connection sharpens focus and pulls you fully into the moment, and according to Changizi, it can change how our brains process space, motion, and risk. Those changes don't necessarily stop when the bike is shut off, and for some people, riding becomes a place to return to — a way forward when other things aren't working, a focus when life is closing in — and that idea sits at the center of today's episode, as Rusty David shares his story.This episode contains a brief reference to suicide. Listener discretion is advised.

You're talented. Your clients love your work. So why does business still feel so hard? This episode explores the disconnect many creative entrepreneurs experience between being genuinely skilled at their craft and struggling to build a sustainable business. What I've discovered is that the very abilities that make you brilliant at your creative work are exactly the same skills that make the business element work, you're simply learning to apply them in a different way.   Key Moments: [00:00] The disconnect between your creative work and running the business side [03:48] Why creative and business skills aren't separate abilities [05:58] How understanding what matters translates from creative work to business strategy [09:27] The real reason talented creatives get stuck  [10:47] Practical examples: applying your creative thinking to business growth [17:30] Why business frameworks designed for others don't work for creative minds [18:49] The Difference it makes   Notable Quotes: "The very same abilities you use to create brilliant work translate directly into the business side of what you do, but it's very easy not to necessarily see the connection."   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's Full Journal Post Listen to last week's episode: No One Talks About This Free Guide: Becoming Thoughtfully and Confidently Persistent Link: The Base Notes Waitlist Subscribe to our Weekly newsletter Website: www.philippacraddock.com Email: hello@philippacraddock.com    Share Your Insights: Have you experienced a disconnect between your creative work and the business side of what you do.

Adventure riding has a strange relationship with risk. We prepare, carry tools, research routes, ride with friends, and do everything we can to stack the odds in our favour on adventure motorcycle rides. But every now and then, something appears that wasn't on the map or in the plan, and it shows up faster than we can process it. In those moments, the problem isn't just the obstacle itself, but what happens next. This story takes place on a remote stretch of Nevada's historic Pony Express Trail, a well-known backcountry route for adventure riders—experienced riders, familiar terrain, and a route travelled for generations. It's the kind of ride where preparation feels like it should be enough, until it isn't, and decisions suddenly matter in ways you don't expect when riding far from help.

When people ask about growing their creative business, the questions typically centre around online marketing: Which platform, how often to post, what's working right now... But what if the answer isn't about marketing at all? This week, while refining modules for the upcoming six-month programme, I've been thinking about what genuinely accelerates business growth for creative entrepreneurs. It's not complicated, but it is something we often avoid, even though we're naturally brilliant at it.   Key Moments: [05:15] Real life right now: what i've been thinking about [07:57] Why we focus on online marketing when strategic outreach grows businesses faster [09:54] How every major client, from Vogue to Dior to Kensington Palace started with an email I sent from my kitchen table [16:21] Why a talk to 12 people created more opportunities than a newsletter sent to 20,000 [18:31] The skills you already use in your creative work that translate directly to strategic business outreach [20:22] What the difference looks like: posting and hoping versus strategic, direct connection [23:04] The shift from reactive to proactive that changes everything   Notable Quotes: "Direct connection accelerates everything. We get so lost in online marketing that it's easy to forget to simply contact people." "Every major client and project I became known for started from my kitchen table. With me sending an email."   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's Full Journal Post Free Guide: Becoming Thoughtfully and Confidently Persistent Link: The Base Notes Waitlist Subscribe to our Weekly newsletter Website: www.philippacraddock.com Email: hello@philippacraddock.com    Share Your Insights: What strategic conversation could you start this week?

Most sales advice focuses on one thing: motivation. More features. More urgency. More discounts. In this episode of Sales & Cigars, Walter sits down with consumer psychology expert Matt Sucha to challenge that assumption—and reveal why buyers often don't need more reasons to say yes… they need fewer reasons to say no. Matt breaks down the psychology behind stalled deals, hesitation, and "I'll think about it," drawing from behavioral economics, real-world case studies, and his book The Hidden Yes. If you've ever felt like your offer made sense but still didn't close, this conversation explains why. In This Episode: Why logic doesn't close deals—feelings do The biggest mistake salespeople make: over-focusing on motivation How uncertainty, doubt, and fear silently kill conversions Why free offers often feel less valuable to buyers The difference between objective value and perceived value How context can change willingness to pay—without changing price A real-world insurance case study that led to a 167% conversion lift Why better sales starts with asking: "Why wouldn't they buy?" Key Takeaways:  Buyers don't stall because they're unmotivated—they stall because something feels risky. Removing psychological friction is often more powerful than adding incentives. Context (how and when you present information) shapes value more than price itself. Great sales conversations are designed—not improvised. Free Gift for Our Listeners!

Gravel riding makes many motorcycle riders uneasy — not because the bike is out of control, but because it doesn't behave the way pavement has trained us to expect. The front wanders, the bars move, braking distances grow, and the instinct is to hold on tight and slow down — usually making things worse. On this episode of Rider Skills, we break gravel riding down into four clear lessons: how to let the bike move without panicking; how throttle, braking, and electronics change traction on loose surfaces; how to read gravel roads and choose lines intentionally; and why braking and cornering with limited traction is not only possible, but fun.

There's something so much more important than frameworks, strategies and tactics. You can read every business book, take every business course, study every successful business, but if you don't understand what makes you unique, have clear positioning, and the confidence to keep moving forward when things get tricky... none of that other stuff matters. This week, I'm sharing what happened with my Pinterest experiment in December, why losing four months of momentum became one of my most valuable lessons, and the three things that are helping me turn setbacks into breakthroughs. If you're facing a moment where things haven't gone to plan, this one's for you.   Key Moments: [01:27] Why understanding what makes you unique matters more than any framework or tactic [02:27] Real life: What happened in December [07:34] The moment of choice and what i learned [11:25] The solution: Getting strategic [16:51] Making it fun again [23:09] Why this matters more than tactics [25:03] Being realistic about priorities [34:24] Three thing to go when things get tricky [42:33] Real life right now: Moving forward   Notable Quotes: "Successful people don't avoid setbacks. They know how to turn those setbacks into something positive. That's a skill you can develop. it's about deeply understanding yourself, making decisions from that clarity, and surrounding yourself with people who get it."   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's Full Journal Post Join the Pinterest Experiment Follow Along with My Pinterest Experiment  Link: The Base Notes Waitlist Subscribe to our Weekly newsletter Website: www.philippacraddock.com Email: hello@philippacraddock.com    Share Your Insights: Have you experienced a moment where something didn't go to plan in your business?

Avalon is driven, creative, and… can't meet a deadline to save her life. In her defense, she's a card-carrying member of the gig economy, juggling a complicated schedule as a DJ and visual artist. Avalon's tried to organize her life using a bullet journal, but procrastination keeps getting in the way of her career pursuits.

This month on RAW, the panel digs into four common ways motorcycle travellers end up carrying too much, and how to change the decisions that lead there. Instead of turning it into another gear list, the conversation looks at how we think about packing: what we're actually preparing for, what we realistically need to handle ourselves, and how destination and trip purpose change everything.

In 2003, Bryan Jones and his wife, Max, joined a guided motorcycle tour through Cambodia, expecting a challenging but well-run adventure motorcycle trip through jungles, villages, and remote roads. What they got instead was something very different — aging bikes, a guide who kept disappearing, and a journey that quickly became unpredictable.

In December 2019, Lisa and Simon Thomas left their motorcycles and gear in the United States, planning to return after a short trip home to the UK. More than six years later, those bikes are still there — and their lives have gone in a very different direction. This episode lives in the space between what was planned and what actually happened. We talk about building a life around long-term travel, what happens when health intervenes, and the emotional cost of stopping after years on the move. Lisa and Simon share what it's like to lose — and rebuild — identity, confidence, and purpose when the thing that defines you suddenly disappears. And through it all, we explore why motorcycles still matter.

Inspired by a Financial Times article on how creativity thrives with constraints, this episode articulates something I've been thinking about for years, that limiting yourself is actually the very best way to seriously flourish. Discover why doing fewer things better might be the most important focus for your creative business this year. Learn three practical principles for constraint-led business, plus how focusing on just one offer last year transformed my entire approach and how the same discipline could revolutionise your business too.   Key Moments: [01:27] Why creativity thrives with constraints: introducing the Financial Times article that sparked this entire conversation [02:44] The Muppet Christmas Carol story: when the director's artistic vision met commercial reality [04:38] How creative business owners complicate things when given too much freedom  [07:51] Why even brilliant creators need 'editors' [10:36] Three principles for constraint-led business [15:52] My own experience focusing on just one offer last year [19:11] Reflection and questions you can ask yourself this week   Notable Quote: "Constraints aren't limiting your potential.

When you focus, you amplify it."   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's  Full Journal Post Financial Times article: "Creativity thrives with constraints" by Stephen Bush The Muppet Christmas Carol (film example discussed) Link: The Base Notes Waitlist Subscribe to our Weekly newsletter Website: www.philippacraddock.com Send an Email: news@philippacraddock.com   Share Your Insights: Where could you perhaps remove something from your business to actually strengthen what remains?

Cody Weber and a small group of experienced motorcycle riders set out on a planned day ride near Green River, Utah, traveling through canyon country, dry riverbeds, and remote desert terrain. The ride appeared well prepared: riders who knew each other, a route that seemed manageable, and time taken beforehand to organize motorcycles, gear, supplies, and navigation.What unfolded next isn't unusual in the world of adventure motorcycling. Terrain gets misread, bikes go down, and riders get injured—especially in remote environments like Utah's canyonlands. What makes this story worth paying attention to is not the crash itself, but what happened afterward.In the minutes and hours following the accident, a series of decisions were made under pressure, shaped by limited information, physical injury, environmental conditions, and the realities of being far from help. Those decisions made sense at the time—but they also raise important questions about risk assessment, group dynamics, emergency response, and decision-making in remote motorcycle travel.This story offers practical lessons for riders who travel off-road and in isolated areas: what to consider after a crash, how judgment can shift under stress, and what might be done differently when plans unravel. It's a reminder that preparation doesn't end when the ride begins—and that the most critical moments often come after everything goes wrong.

What do improv comedy, standup, and high-performing salespeople have in common? More than you think. In this episode of Sales & Cigars, Walter Crosby sits down with Kevin Hubschmann to explore how comedy skills like active listening, adaptability, brevity, and comfort with failure directly translate to better sales conversations. Kevin shares how doing improv in a cramped New York apartment sharpened his instincts on sales calls, why scripts often fail in real-world selling, and how learning to bomb—on stage and in sales—became a competitive advantage. This is a practical, mindset-shifting conversation for sellers who want to think differently about discovery, messaging, and growth. In This Episode: Falling into sales while trying to survive in New York City How improv immediately improved Kevin's sales calls Why listening is the most underrated sales skill The danger of rigid scripts when buyers "take a left turn" What standup comedy teaches about clarity and concise messaging Why losing deals is essential to becoming a better salesperson Using low-stakes reps to test ideas and improve performance How comedy training is now being used to develop sales teams Key Takeaways:  Great sales conversations are collaborative, not scripted Listening beats pitching every time Clear, concise messaging travels further inside an organization Failure is data—not a verdict Reps, reflection, and refinement matter more than talent Connect with Kevin: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevin-hubschmannn/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/laughdotkevin/ Laugh.Events: https://www.laugh.events/    Connect with Walter Crosby and Sales & Cigars: Website: Helix Sales Development LinkedIn: Walter Crosby Instagram: @wcrosby248 Facebook: Helix Sales Development   Share Your Thoughts: We'd love to hear your feedback and experiences!

In Kevin Staples' mind, there was always a point where the trip would end. He didn't expect to get through. The goal wasn't success — it was simply to go far enough to say he'd tried. To ride up to the wall, touch it, and be told to turn back. So he kept doing exactly that. Showing up. Asking the question. Taking one more step, fully expecting it to be the last. That isn't how it played out. By the time Kevin rode his motorcycle home, the road — and the world around him — looked very different than it had when he left.

How has motorcycle travel changed over the past ten years — not just the gear and tech, but how does constant exposure to other riders' trips and highlight reels reshape our motivation? Comparison is everywhere now, whether we want it or not, and it has a way of steering our travel choices without us noticing. The panel reflects on what first sparked their desire to travel, how that spark has evolved, and how to stay grounded in their own reasons for riding instead of chasing outside influence.Listener Question from Briah Grohs: For your 10th anniversary show of RAW, ask each member of the panel what stands out in their mind that they learned from being on the show.

Slow-speed skills matter — especially on heavy adventure motorcycles. But if that's where your training stops, there are real situations where it starts working against you. Because sometimes control doesn't come from crawling — it comes from the right momentum at the right time. Clinton Smout from SMART Performance Centre joins us to talk about what happens when the trail gets rough and the bike needs to do what it's designed to do: move. We explore how stability changes with motion, how traction and momentum work together in real terrain, and why timing — with throttle, clutch, and body position — is what separates bouncing through from riding cleanly through.

Riding a motorcycle through Laos pushes both nerve and skill—potholes big enough to swallow a car, sudden water crossings, deep mud, and even the possibility of an elephant stepping onto the trail. A team from Rally for Rangers, led by Steve Zuschin, recently tackled these extreme conditions as they crossed Laos to deliver new motorcycles to frontline Rangers. The ride blended rugged, technical adventure motorcycling with a mission that supports the protection of threatened wilderness. Steve talks about why these demanding routes keep pulling him back and what it takes to ride some of the toughest terrain in Southeast Asia.
