A New Chapter for Sales & Cigars Sales & Cigars is changing. In this behind-the-scenes episode, Walter Crosby sits down with producer Mark Labriola II to talk about the next chapter of the podcast—and why it was time to make a shift. After years of remote conversations, the show is moving toward a more immersive, in-person format with stronger production, longer conversations, and a much bigger emphasis on cigars. But the core of the show isn't changing. Sales, entrepreneurship, leadership, and the real experiences behind building a business will still drive the conversation. The difference is that those topics will now come through more naturally—over cigars, face-to-face, in environments designed for deeper and more interesting conversations. Walter and Mark talk candidly about Zoom fatigue, storytelling, production value, building authority through podcasting, and why the best conversations often happen when you stop trying to force the "perfect" interview. Consider this your preview of what's coming next. Episode Highlights Why Sales & Cigars is changing its format Moving away from primarily remote interviews toward in-person conversations Why listeners are experiencing Zoom and remote-video fatigue Bringing cigars further to the forefront of the show Creating more natural conversations around sales and entrepreneurship Why face-to-face conversations create different energy Increasing the production quality of the podcast Moving toward longer-form conversations driven by chemistry rather than a rigid clock The role podcasting can play in building authority and thought leadership Creating more short-form content between full episodes Taking Sales & Cigars into cigar lounges and potentially other cities What listeners can expect from the upcoming season What's Changing More cigars. Cigars will become a bigger part of the conversation—not simply as branding, but as a way to learn about guests, their stories, and the experiences that connect people around them. More in-person conversations. Instead of another remote video call, Walter will increasingly sit across from guests and let conversations unfold naturally. Better production. The new episodes will feature stronger visuals, better sound, and environments that better reflect the personality of Sales & Cigars. Longer conversations. Rather than forcing every episode into the same structure, conversations will go as long as the chemistry and subject matter warrant. The same business value. Sales, leadership, entrepreneurship, and growth remain at the heart of the show. The goal is simply to uncover those lessons through more organic conversations. Why the Change? Remote podcasting made conversations possible during a period when nearly everything moved online. But today, many people spend their entire workday moving from one virtual meeting to another. Another split-screen interview can easily become something to scroll past. The new Sales & Cigars aims to create something different: the feeling that you're sitting in the room while two people have a conversation you actually want to hear. The objective is still to educate—but also to entertain, tell better stories, and create the kinds of conversations that lead to unexpected ideas. Who Should Listen This episode is especially valuable for: Longtime Sales & Cigars listeners wondering what's next Entrepreneurs who enjoy candid conversations about business Sales professionals looking for practical ideas without another scripted interview Cigar enthusiasts interested in the stories behind what people smoke and why Business owners using content to build authority and grow their brand Anyone interested in the behind-the-scenes evolution of a podcast Want to Be Part of the New Format? Have a great cigar story? An entrepreneurial journey worth talking about? A sales lesson learned the hard way? As Sales & Cigars expands its in-person format, Walter and the team are looking for interesting people and conversations—potentially from cigar lounges and cities around the country.

Chapter 2 – Paul's First Sight of the CrossIn Chapter 2 of All Things New, Jessie Penn-Lewis turns to Paul's first sight of the cross and the life-changing revelation it brought. What once seemed weakness and shame became, in the light of Christ, the wisdom and power of God. This chapter shows how the cross not only reveals the love of Christ, but also brings an end to self-confidence, self-righteousness, and all that stands in the place of full surrender. It is a searching and hope-filled chapter that reminds us that when we truly see the cross, we begin to discover a life in Christ that is immeasurably more.All Things New book is available on Amazon.Theme music: “Relaxing Soft Piano Music” by Viacheslav Starostin, used with gratitude.We would like to pray for you.

Chapter 1 – The Cross “Before the World Was”In Chapter 1 of All Things New, Jessie Penn-Lewis begins at the deepest possible place: the cross in the eternal purpose of God. Long before Calvary, before the fall, and before the world itself, the Lamb was in the heart of God. This opening chapter invites us to see the cross not as an afterthought, but as the center of His redemptive plan—revealing a love, wisdom, and purpose that existed before time began. It is a rich and worshipful beginning that lifts our eyes to the greatness of Christ and reminds us that in Him, God is always doing immeasurably more.All Things New book is available on Amazon.Theme music: “Relaxing Soft Piano Music” by Viacheslav Starostin, used with gratitude.We would like to pray for you.

View This Week's Show NotesWe're back from one of the most bonkers trips of our lives. Juliet and I just finished hiking the Haute Route, the classic alpine traverse from Chamonix, France to Zermatt, Switzerland, roughly 90 miles over 10 days with our daughters Georgia and Caroline. Caroline's senior trip. Years of mental infiltration paid off.Neither of us trained specifically for it. I spent the spring managing a torn ACL and calf. I skipped the surgery because we had this trip on the calendar, and I wasn't willing to miss it. Somewhere around day eight or nine on the trail, my knee actually started to feel better. That's the thing about movement as medicine: there's no substitute for the reps.The trip had other highlights. We've been telling Georgia since she was three that we would someday find wild Edelweiss in the Alps. On day four, crossing one of the high passes, she spotted a patch. She actually cried. It was one of the best moments of my life.We also dig into the news that Thorne, one of the most trusted names in supplement quality, has been acquired by Procter & Gamble for $3.8 billion, and why this deal raises real questions worth watching.Then there's the Tour de France Femme and Kasia Niewiadoma's historic climb on Mont Ventoux: 5.3 watts per kilo for 55 minutes. We talk about the coverage problem, the naming problem, and why this race deserves far more than it's currently getting.We close out with GLP-1 Watch: new data on cancer risk reduction, dementia, addiction disorders, and which grocery category is taking the biggest hit. Spoiler: it's chips.New episodes of The Ready State Podcast drop every Thursday.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhat the Haute Route is and why it's one of the great alpine treks in the worldHow Kelly completed 10 days of hiking in Switzerland months after tearing his ACL and choosing not to have surgeryWhy going uphill is easy and the downhill will humble you, and what "tissue exposure" means for how you prepare for a big adventureThe story behind finding wild Edelweiss on a high alpine pass and why Georgia cried when she spotted itWhat Thorne's $3.8 billion acquisition by Procter & Gamble means for supplement quality, and what to actually watch forWhy Kasia Niewiadoma's 5.3 watts per kilo for 55 minutes on Mont Ventoux is one of the most extraordinary athletic performances in recent memoryWhat the current GLP-1 research shows about cancer risk, dementia, and addiction, and why all of it still needs to be taken with real cautionWhy where your GLP-1 is compounded matters and what the black market problem looks likeKey Highlights: (00:00) Welcome back to RECESS, and a recap of the hippo attack episode and puppet theater(01:30) Introducing the Haute Route: Chamonix to Zermatt, and how Caroline's senior trip idea came to be(02:22) The scale of the Swiss Alps: glaciers, wildflower valleys, and a moonscape where a glacier used to be(02:41) Meeting hikers at the mountain hut who ask "Have you been training for this?"(03:12) The bonkers 8-hour day: two 10,000-foot passes, extreme terrain, and extreme views(03:50) The $500 Edelweiss bounty, day four on the trail, and Georgia's emotional discovery(05:51) Fit but not prepared for the downhill: what tissue exposure means and why the kneecaps paid the price(06:07) Kelly's "sprain plus": tearing his ACL and calf in February and deciding to skip surgery for this trip(07:38) Working the plan: movement, swelling management, and a knee that improved over 10 days of hiking(09:45) The family dimension: hiking as a unit of four, bird launchers, and the mountain bike trike side trip(10:50) Thorne acquired by Procter & Gamble for $3.8 billion: what it means for supplement quality(12:12) Why NSF Certified for Sport matters and the precedent of P&G's 2012 New Chapter acquisition(14:28) Tour de France Femme: Kasia Niewiadoma's historic climb on Mont Ventoux(17:40) The coverage problem: Peacock picking up halfway, and why this race needs Phil Liggett on the mic(18:53) What 5.3 watts per kilo for 55 minutes actually means (and why you should try your local bike)(19:47) GLP-1 Watch: grocery data from 150,000 households, chips down 10%, and yogurt on the rise(24:18) GLP-1 and cancer: Penn Medicine study, breast cancer data, and why these are still observational studies(25:53) GLP-1 and dementia: 40–70% lower risk across large studies, and what the mechanisms might be(25:56) The caveats: observational data, socioeconomic skew, compounding quality, and the black market problem(26:32) GLP-1 and addiction: alcohol, cocaine, nicotine disorders, and rewiring the brain's reward center(28:20) What are we living for: Caroline's college move-in, the river trip, and whether Kelly needs an ACL for ski season

After four months away, Robert Santana is back—and a lot has changed.The Weights and Plates Podcast has officially evolved into Strong and Sleek, a new name and brand built around the idea that getting stronger, looking better, and building a more durable body doesn't have to mean living in the gym or chasing extreme numbers.Robert opens up about why he closed his old South Phoenix gym, moved to North Scottsdale, and built a completely new training environment. He explains the philosophy behind Strong and Sleek, why he wanted a more balanced and accessible approach to strength training, and what he's learned about the biggest obstacle facing most people: not motivation, but time and recovery.He also gets unusually candid about a major personal change: after years of training and making progress without steroids, Robert started testosterone replacement therapy earlier this year. He explains why he made the decision, what changed, what didn't, and how much testosterone actually contributed to his recent strength gains—including new PRs on the deadlift, bench, squat, and press.Along the way, Robert tackles genetics, muscle-building potential, weight cycling, recovery, aging, the realities of natural strength training, and why Instagram fitness promises don't apply to most people.The podcast isn't dead. It's evolving.Strong and Sleek is the new name. The mission is still the same: get stronger, get healthier, look better, and build a body that can handle real life.

For the first time, Wailer is joined in the studio by his wife, Adena, as The Naked Gospel enters a brand-new chapter. Together, they share the personal story that led them into sexual integrity ministry, reflect on twenty-one years of marriage, raising six children, and why conversations about sex have become increasingly absent within the Church. They explore the lasting effects of purity culture, the silence surrounding pornography and abuse, why shame keeps so many Christians isolated, and how authentic community becomes one of God's primary tools for healing. Most importantly, they introduce the new direction of the podcast—a journey through Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, uncovering God's design for sexuality, intimacy, the body, and the Gospel itself. Resources: 1 Corinthians 6 ("The body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord.") C.S. Lewis quote: "Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, 'What! You too?

Galen Clavio and Scott Caulfield are back for a founders edition of CrimsonCast, with Indiana football recruiting at the center of the conversation.The main topic is Monshun Sales committing to Indiana football, and why the five-star wide receiver choosing the Hoosiers feels historically different. Galen and Scott discuss how Curt Cignetti has changed IU's recruiting reality, why Sales fits the staff's personality and development profile, and how Indiana's national championship momentum is turning into real traction with high-end talent.They also dig into Josh Hoover's interception outlook, how Indiana may bring him along inside the offense, and whether Cignetti is likely to pursue five-star quarterbacks or running backs in the same way he pursued Sales. The conversation also gets into NIL money, why those numbers are hard to know with certainty, and how Indiana appears to be spending strategically rather than chasing recruiting trophies.The final stretch moves to IU basketball, where Galen and Scott talk through cautious optimism around the new roster, the Peru trip, and why fans are still in “show me” mode. They close with World Cup and soccer talk, including Erling Haaland, Manchester City, Jordan Pickford, and what might keep casual fans watching after the tournament ends.Buy "The New Chapter" by Alex Paul and Kal Graybill: https://www.alexpaulphoto.com/store-1/indiana-football-bookBook a table for the event at Joe's on Weed St! https://tinyurl.com/yrvx9vunBuy some CrimsonCast Merch! https://tinyurl.com/ppnp9sxu

This week on The Business of Watches, a breaking news story, of sorts. Our friends at Worn & Wound have acquired Lorier Watches. It's a story of success for the New York-based boutique brand that started way back in 2017 with a mission to make vintage-inspired watches, designed to be worn every day, at an approachable price. In a way, it's a tale of too much success. Lorier co-founders, the husband and wife team Lauren Ortega and Lorenzo Ortega, struggled with the rapid growth of the small company, and the inability to meet demand for their products took a toll on the two-person operation. They considered winding up the brand, as it were, but a talk with Blake Malin, the co-founder of the well-established content, retail, and watch event company Worn & Wound, also based in New York, set them on a different path. The acquisition of Lorier is the first time Worn & Wound has acquired a watch brand. Malin and Lorenzo Ortega join us to talk about how the deal came about and what's next for both Lorier and Worn & Wound. Though Ortega spent his formative years in Geneva until he was about 18, it's a decidedly American business story in the watch industry.

For Alecia Harris '23, art is as essential as breathing, and it's something everyone deserves to have access to. So she's turned that belief into a career that sits at the intersection of art and business, with a mission focused on making art accessible.After years working in arts programming and visitor engagement at Rice University's Moody Center for the Arts, she earned her Professional MBA from Rice Business, then pivoted into private wealth management at J.P. Morgan, where she built a client book of art collectors and museum donors. Now, as chief development officer at the Rothko Chapel, she's channeling all of that experience into leading fundraising and development for one of Houston's most iconic cultural institutions, during a pivotal moment in its history.Alecia joins co-host Brian Jackson '21 to discuss her winding path from art history to finance and back, what “radical hospitality” means in practice, how her MBA gave her the 50,000-foot view she needed, and why Houston's next generation of patrons must step up to steward the city's world-class cultural institutions into the future.Episode Guide:00:00 Meet Alecia Harris01:09 Finding Art History02:29 Art Without Intimidation05:02 Radical Hospitality06:26 The Rothko Chapel07:39 Renovation and Light09:13 Why Get an MBA12:21 From Arts to JPMorgan14:26 MBA Learning Curve15:46 Art Advantage in Banking21:37 Development Role Day to Day23:43 Leadership Across Sectors28:17 Travel for Art31:08 Houston Hidden GemsThe Owl Have You Know Podcast is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:Why arts shouldn't be a luxury 5:41: If you stand in front of a piece of work, often Rothko paintings, like people talk about having your Rothko moment, like people are moved to tears. They have these transformative experiences in front of it. Why shouldn't that be available to everybody? And for me, even when I was working in, at JPMorgan, and I was working in finance, I had to have access to art every day because for me, it's like breathing. And I think good art holds a mirror up to society. It helps you process universal truths. It helps you connect to people. It's so important to me. It's not a luxury. It's something that I think everybody has to have access to it. And so anything that I can do to make people feel as if they also have an ownership over this, they have a right to access it, that's something that I'm very motivated by.The 50,000-foot view of leadership23:15: I never would have had that 50,000 square foot view or really been able to understand how all the different pieces came together if I hadn't gone to business school. So I'm so, so fortunate that I have that perspective. One, just the scope of programs that we learned at Rice, but then also getting that experience working at the bank and now being able to bring all of that to this very worthwhile organization is incredibly meaningful.Why curiosity makes better leaders23:55: For me, there's not really the qualities that I look for in a leader that I don't look for and think are worthwhile in just general human beings. Like this curiosity and openness, a willingness to listen. I think we can learn so much from unexpected places, take inspiration from unexpected places. I'm somebody that's a big info gatherer, and I'll take something and it's like I don't really know what I'm going to do with that or why I needed to know that right now, but I'll put it, you know, in my back pocket. And then those moments when you're able to make the connection later and it kind of unlocks new meaning or new opportunity, those are always really rewarding.Show Links: Rothko ChapelMoody Center for the Arts | Rice UniversityTranscriptGuest Profile:Alecia Harris | Rothko Chapel

The USMCA review is underway, with implications beyond tariffs. Our Head of U.S. Public Policy Research Ariana Salvatore breaks down the key issues shaping the road ahead.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Ariana Salvatore: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Ariana Salvatore, Head of U.S. Public Policy at Morgan Stanley Research.Today, I'll be talking about the USMCA review – what happened on July 1st, what it means for North American trade, and how investors should be thinking about the road ahead. It's Friday, July 10th at 10am in New York. Last week, the six-year review deadline for the USMCA came and went. And as we'd anticipated, the U.S. declined to extend the agreement for another sixteen-year term. U.S. Trade Representative Greer stated that the U.S. did not agree to renew the USMCA in its current form, pointing to shortcomings and trade deficits with both Canada and Mexico, much of which echoed his testimony in front of Congress in December of last year. So, what happens next? This decision triggers an annual review process that could continue until the agreement's scheduled expiration in 2036. So, that means effectively the new deadline for negotiations is now July of 2027. And if we get to that point and see a similar outcome, this procedure repeats until the deal is terminated in 2036. Now, importantly, the agreement itself remains fully in force during this period. The current tariff regime, rules of origin, investment protections, and dispute settlement mechanisms are all unaffected for now. That's actually in line with the expectation that we laid out earlier this year. In short, we anticipated an outcome in which negotiations stall and the deal moves to annual reviews. We thought that was becoming more likely than an ambitious expansion of the agreement in its current form. That being said, there are some important implications of this outcome. First, we think North American trade is being reshaped by a transition from a rules-based framework – where tariff schedules and preferential access anchored trade decisions – toward a more discretionary, sector-specific approach tied to industrial policy objectives. That, of course, increases uncertainty around exemptions, sector treatment, and consequently investment decisions for corporates. Second, we think two bilateral deals may not be off the table. While it's still our base case that the trilateral framework remains intact, reporting seems to suggest that negotiations are progressing much more substantively with Mexico than with Canada. A third round of U.S.-Mexico negotiations is scheduled for the week of July 20th, while substantive text-based negotiations between Canada and the U.S. have not yet begun. That asymmetry could mean that bilateral issues between the U.S. and Mexico are resolved more easily, while outstanding frictions like Canada's dairy market quota system could prove to be an overhang in those bilateral talks. Third, the structural divergence between Mexico and Canada is accelerating, which is something my colleagues have highlighted in their recent work. If we think about Canada's manufacturing export base – autos, metals, machinery, energy, and transportation equipment – that actually overlaps with the areas that the U.S. government is increasingly defining as strategic. And therefore, necessitating more government involvement through, in things like Section 232 tariffs. Canada accounts for only a negligible share of U.S. imports across computers, semiconductors, communications equipment, and advanced electronics. Those are actually the sectors where Mexico has become deeply integrated, particularly through assembly and re-export activity linked to AI servers, electronics, and industrial hardware. Mexico now supplies roughly 35 percent of U.S. IT hardware imports and nearly 50 percent of U.S. server imports. And the North in particular has emerged as a vital interconnection hub between Latin America and the U.S. That's been driven by nearshoring trends, AI adoption, and multi-cloud strategies, as my colleagues Nik Lippmann and Fernando Sedano highlight. That means the scope and the objectives of the bilateral talks between the U.S. and Mexico and the U.S. and Canada may diverge even more from here. So where does that leave us? The USMCA is still intact, but the annual review process means North American trade policy is now a recurring negotiation, not yet a settled framework. And that will likely remain the case if policymakers agree next July to punt the issue yet another year. The primary risk, in our view, stems less from the possibility of a full USMCA collapse and more from the prolonged uncertainty around implementation details, sector-specific trade measures, and Section 232 tariffs. Thanks for listening. If you enjoy the show, please leave us a review wherever you listen and share Thoughts on the Market with a friend or colleague today.
