A neighbor decided a healthy, 89-year-old oak tree was "in the way" of his shed, so he trespassed onto another person's property and cut it down without asking. Then, in an act of absolute audacity, he had the nerve to demand they pay half the cost of the cutting! What followed was an epic, two-year war of attrition through the legal system. In this episode of Karma Stories, we're unpacking a brutal lesson in tree law that proves some neighbors will go to any length to avoid admitting they were wrong. You won't believe how this two-year saga finally ended.
Eric Collins is a California entrepreneur, tax strategist, and business owner who has built and sold companies while navigating major physical adversity, including breaking his neck in five places and surviving multiple spinal fusions.In this episode, he and Ned go deep into discipline, certainty, emotional stability, fatherhood, business ownership, marriage, and the kind of intentional leadership most men want but rarely see modeled clearly. Eric shares practical systems he's built into his home life — from making breakfast for his sons every morning for nearly a decade to helping lead an 80-man “Dad's Club” at his sons' school that has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for families and students.This is one of those conversations that quietly sneaks up on you. It starts with stories about fishing trips, school fundraisers, and parenting struggles, but underneath it is a serious conversation about becoming the kind of man your family can trust.Eric talks openly about growing up around abuse, wrestling through ego and unhealthy habits, learning to control his reactions, and realizing that discipline without emotional connection was damaging his relationship with his son. Rather than doubling down in pride, he humbled himself, sought wisdom, and changed course.Fathers will walk away from this episode challenged to think differently about leadership in the home. Eric's idea that a father should be “the oak tree, not the thundercloud” is one of the strongest themes in the conversation. He explains why certainty and consistency matter so deeply to children, how routines create emotional safety, and why many men unintentionally sabotage the very outcomes they want most. There's also a powerful discussion around mentorship, growth-mindedness, replacing destructive habits with healthier pursuits, and learning to accept feedback from your wife without defensiveness.A few standout takeaways from the episode:Your children need certainty more than perfection.Discipline without relationship eventually creates distance.Men need community and purposeful involvement outside of work.Most growth comes through pain, humility, and repeated course correction.You become a better father by intentionally becoming a better man.---------Check Out the Program Talked About: Genesis by Rise Up KingsThis episode is sponsored by Genesis - a Rite of Passage by Rise Up KingsOrder The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?www.adventureoffatherhood.comwww.rebelandcreate.comEach week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.

What if the next level of leadership isn't about controlling more — but trusting yourself more deeply? In this episode of Heart Glow CEO®, we turn the lens inward and explore self-trust as the root system of steady, conscious leadership. Not the fluffy “just believe in yourself” kind, but the grounded, practical self-trust you can lean on when a decision feels weighty, a conversation gets uncomfortable, your body is giving you a signal, or everyone around you has an opinion about what you should do next. If you tend to overthink, over-function, soften your truth, say yes too quickly, or carry more than your share to keep things comfortable, this episode will feel like a deep exhale. Together, we'll look at what it means to become the stable oak tree — rooted in your values, guided by intuition, and less available to be pulled off-center by external circumstances, old roles, or other people's weather. In this Heart Glow CEO® episode, you'll learn: Why self-trust is the root system of clear, courageous leadership How security, intuition, and heart-centered alignment help you stop overriding yourself A grounded way to come back to what you can actually control when leadership, relationships, decisions, or external circumstances feel loud This is an invitation to stop making your body pay the price for decisions your deeper wisdom already knows are out of alignment. Because real leadership doesn't begin with managing the storm. It begins with deepening the roots that help you stay steady through it. About Kc Kc Rossi, PCC, is an Integrative Leadership Coach and host of Heart Glow CEO®. She helps mission-driven entrepreneurs and executives regulate stress, strengthen self-trust, and lead with clearer decisions, cleaner communication, and embodied authority — without burning out or overriding themselves.

Send us Fan MailPrivate credit is the crisis everyone's watching, but the real story -- and the one no one has been focused on -- is what private equity is doing behind the scenes.In Part 1 of our 3-part series, Kristen and Jen break down the $30 billion leveraged buyout of Caesars by Apollo and TPG, the deal that became the blueprint for what we now call "creditor-on-creditor violence" and flipped everything everyone thought they knew about the relationship between debt and equity investors on its head.This also happens to be the ultimate Private Equity & LBO deep dive as we start with the basics: what an LBO actually is, how it works, why private equity firms started to do club deals back in 2006/7 (hint...size) and how capital structures work at a high level.From there, Jen and Kristen walk through the actual structure of the Caesars deal — $6B in equity from Apollo, TPG, and 30+ co-investors (everyone from Goldman Sachs to the Michael J. Fox Foundation to Bob Kraft), $7B in bank loans, $6B in bridge-to-high-yield bonds, and $6.5B in commercial mortgage-backed securities sitting at the PropCo level. They explain what an OpCo/PropCo mean in laymen's terms, why it let Apollo juice leverage, why club deals fell out of favor in favor of co-invest structures, and how today's mega-LBOs (Electronic Arts, the Ellison family's Warner Bros. Discovery play) stack up against what was historic in 2007.This series is based on The Caesars Palace Coup by Sujeet Indap and Max Frumes — not sponsored, just genuinely one of the best case studies out there on LBOs and distressed debt investing. Stay tuned for Part 2, where Jen and Kristen get into everything that went wrong, the asset-transfer shenanigans, and the birth of creditor-on-creditor violence and how Britney Spears was the linchpin that kept it all together...until it all unraveled with the biggest names in investing, Apaloosa, Eliott, Oak Tree, Oak Hill, Paulson and more got in the ring. In Part 3, we sit down with Sujeet Indap of the Financial Times to talk about what the Caesars deal means for the private credit market today, and what exactly is going on with Caesars who is back in the news with Carl Icahn and billionaire Tilman Fertitta out with competing offers.For a 14 day FREE Trial of Macabacus, click HEREShop our Self Paced Courses:Investment Banking & Private Equity Fundamentals HEREFixed Income Sales & Trading HEREWealthfront.com/wss.

From detail-obsessed standards in the golf shop to mentoring young assistants who go on to land head pro jobs, Cary brings a masterclass in service, culture, and competitive edge.It's Southern Hills stories, Tiger intel, family rivalries, and rapid-fire golf takes all rolled into one.Must-Hear Insights and Key MomentsCary Cozby shares how growing up under a 41-year club pro shaped his obsession with detail and standards.He explains why Southern Hills is his version of “Yankee Stadium” as an Oklahoma golf kid.Cary breaks down what it's really like to manage access requests from members and fellow PGA professionals.He reveals how Tiger Woods requested him personally for a private practice round at Southern Hills.Cary describes Tiger's insane shot recall and ability to hit different windows without changing his setup.He talks about guiding his son Banks through nerves while playing in front of the most intimidating golfer in history.Cary explains why assistant pros stepping into Southern Hills get a “fire hose to the face” on day one.He compares handling tour pros during majors versus serving dues-paying members year-round.Words of Wisdom: Standout Quotes from This Episode"My dad taught me there is no gray area when it comes to standards. Details matter, and they always will." - Cary Cozby"My value to this club is not sitting behind a computer. It is being present, knowing the members, and leading from the front." - Cary Cozby"At the end of the day, we want members driving out of here thinking, I am so glad I belong to this place." - Cary Cozby"When you run a private club, you technically have 900 bosses. But if you build trust and communicate, it becomes a partnership." - Cary Cozby"When a young assistant walks into Southern Hills, it is like drinking from a fire hose. But that is how you grow fast in this business." - Cary Cozby"Tiger remembered every single shot he hit in that practice round. The trajectory, the curve, the landing spot. It was unreal." - Cary Cozby"You will never be more nervous than standing on a tee with Tiger Woods watching your golf swing." - Cary Cozby"That is how you know you have a strong culture, when your assistants leave and other great clubs want them immediately." - Cary Cozby"You can host championships and take care of tour pros, but your real job is serving the members who call this place home." - Cary CozbyAbout CaryCary Cozby, PGA is the Director of Golf at Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa, Oklahoma, one of the most storied championship venues in the game.

Continuing from the beginning-ending place of the Winter Solstice, the second part of our mythic weaving comes again from 2016, a piece invoked for a Bard of Bath soiree. Re-recorded in the newness of 2026 as I sat by the hearth fire while the frost twinkled in the full moon's light, and the stars sang of magicks…
In this episode of the Landlord Chick Podcast, Corina Eufinger is diving into the messy, emotional, and flat-out "sketchy" side of real estate investing. We're taking the viral "Am I The Asshole?" format and applying it to the wildest backyard battles you've ever heard of.What do you do when a tenant turns your investment into a feral cat sanctuary? Or when a "Memorial Oak Tree" is planted right over your main sewer line? And let's not forget the "Backyard Architecture"—aka sketchy DIY forts!We'll laugh, question people's decision-making skills, and call out a landlord for being well...an asshole.
What if planting trees could be not just good for the planet, but also a profitable business? In this episode, I'm talking with Ben Dell, the founder and CEO of Chestnut Carbon — a company that's raised nearly $400 million, including $250 million of that in 2025, to turn farmland back into thriving native forests across the United States. And he's already forging major carbon removal deals with the likes of Microsoft and Mercedes F1. Ben's journey is a fascinating one: he began his career in oil and gas private equity, helping fossil-fuel companies optimize their operations. But during the pandemic, he had what you might call a carbon epiphany. Seeing how few trustworthy carbon-removal projects existed, he decided to create his own — one that would make measurable, verifiable, and permanent carbon storage not just possible, but investable. In our conversation, Ben explains why carbon is a commodity, and how to prove you've really stored it. He talks about how Chestnut buys up marginal cattle-grazed land and restores it into biodiverse forests — with already more than 17 million trees planted. And he goes over why he proudly calls Chestnut "conservation for profit" — a business model that needs no subsidies, just land, good science, and a lot of patience. Ben also talks about the challenges of scaling a nature-based startup, the importance of grit over glamour, and why he believes restoring forests can be one of America's most investable climate solutions. So if you've ever wondered how capitalism might actually reverse deforestation — not cause it — this episode will give you a hopeful, grounded look at what that future could look like. Discussed in this episode Ben is a managing partner at Kimmeridge. Business Insider profile and a Wall Street Journal profile on Ben's work. Our past episode with author Mike Grunwald. You can see Chestnut's patent, "Systems and methods for forest surveying," here. Chestnut's offtake partnership with Microsoft and a similar agreement with Mercedes F1. Ben recommends podcasts such as Lex Fridman's and Invest Like the Best. Get to Know Ben Dell Ben Dell is a Managing Partner of Kimmeridge and oversees investment activity across the firm. He is closely involved in the screening of new geological opportunities and in the negotiation and execution of investment strategies. Prior to founding Kimmeridge, Mr. Dell was a Senior Equity Research Analyst for Oil and Gas Exploration and Production (E&P) at Sanford C. Bernstein, where he was ranked first three times in the Institutional Investor Research Survey for coverage of E&Ps. Mr. Dell was also ranked for Natural Gas and for Oil Services and Equipment coverage. Mr. Dell joined Sanford C. Bernstein in 2003. Prior to joining Bernstein, Mr. Dell was employed at British Petroleum (BP) in its M&A and finance group. Before moving into the finance field, Mr. Dell also held positions as an exploration geologist and geophysicist across several of BP's regional business units. Mr. Dell is currently CEO of Chestnut Carbon, a nature-based carbon removal developer and is on the Board of Caturus HoldCo, LLC., a large private natural gas producer in South Texas.

In the summer of 1987, three children discovered that the line between childhood games and the paranormal can disappear in an instant. Out on their grandfather's land near a rumored Native burial ground in rural Montana, the days smelled of cut hay and pine resin — but at dusk, the yard belonged to something else. It began with a toy truck that hurled itself off a shelf, striking the wall with unnatural force. Soon came the faceless black boy crouched beneath the oak tree, holding their toy in silence before vanishing into thin air. But the strangest apparition arrived at midnight: a 17-year-old girl in a faded blue dress, hair in braids, umbrella and purse in hand, standing stiff in the upstairs hallway — staring past them as though trapped in another time. The house's doorbell rang on its own, voices whispered in the backyard when no one was there, and a massive black hand once gripped the doorframe as if trying to pull itself inside. This chilling true ghost story isn't about creaky floors — it's about the way childhood wonder collides with the unseen. Decades later, the memories still linger like a breath on the back of the neck… and the question remains: were these ghosts of the land, or something far older? #TrueGhostStory #RealHaunting #Haunted #FacelessBoy #ShadowFigures #ParanormalActivity #ChildhoodHaunting #GirlInBlueDress #GhostStoriesPodcast #HauntedHouseTales #SupernaturalEncounters #CreepyChildhoodStories Love real ghost stories?

Mary Stone recounts witnessing a bear in her pond overnight, perhaps feeding on acorns. The encounter led her to learn about the Acorn Float Test, which assesses the viability of acorns for propagation. Blue Jays flock to feast on acorns in the fall, making a ruckus. Like squirrels, they bury a stash, though many are never retrieved. Mary admits a previous grudge against Blue Jays, which shifted after observing their nature. She highlights the importance of Oak Trees and Blue Jays in the balance of our natural world.Thanks for tuning in!Related Podcast and Posts: Acorns and a Ruckus of Blue Jays - Blog PostEp 35.

Denis Dean had a circuitous route from Miami, Florida to Fayetteville, Arkansas, one involving a family of attorneys, crooked cops, cocaine dealers, and death threats. Now Chief Deputy Prosecutor for Washington and Madison Counties, Dean is looking to shed the "deputy" portion of his title and become the prosecutor. In this episode, he discusses his family history, growing up in Florida in the wildness of the 1980s, and what motivates him when it comes to making sure bad guys face the justice they've earned. Give it a listen, it's a good one. #denisdean #prosecutor #washingtoncountyar #madisoncountyar #cocaine #cocainecowboys #lawenforcement

This week on Monday Mailtime , Producer Dom is diving headfirst into two chilling listener stories that left us wide-eyed and unnerved.First up, Jordan recounts an encounter near an ancient oak tree in rural Wales—an experience that defies traditional ghost stories and brushes up against something far older… and far more mysterious. A pulsing blue light. A silent forest. And a presence that felt elemental, vast, and deeply aware.Then we head to Toledo, Spain, where a seemingly innocent porcelain doll purchased on holiday begins exhibiting disturbingly lifelike behavior. Footsteps in the night. Sudden temperature drops. And a shopkeeper who says, with unnerving certainty, “She always finds her way home.”You'll want to keep the lights on for this one.A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast.

There's a reason why the British theatre maker Tim Crouch doesn't want his actors to hear this podcast — it's because they're not supposed to know anything about their role until an hour before the show. This year, Tim's award-winning play “An Oak Tree” turns 20. It's one of the strangest and most influential theatre experiments in history, and it's currently being staged at the Luminato Festival in Toronto. Each performance is completely unique, shaped by the presence of a different guest actor, including past celebrity guests like Frances McDormand, Mike Myers and Alan Cumming. Tim sits down with guest host Gill Deacon to talk about the risk in live performance, the power of not-knowing, and why this show still resonates 20 years on.

A story about a house, a hillside, and a centuries-old oak tree—and what it teaches us about healing, renewal, and the resilience of nature. In this episode, I explore what it means to be a participant in the restoration of the world around us and ourselves. ——————
Bible Reading: Isaiah 61:1-3, 10-11; Colossians 1:9-10"This giant oak tree is what gave Oak Park its name," the tour guide told the kids on their field trip. Elijah listened attentively. He loved history and learning things like this.Back home later that day, Elijah told his mom about the tour. "That big oak tree survived the Civil War, a flood, and six fires," he said. "Wow!" said Mom. "That's amazing.""It kept on growing," said Elijah, "even though the odds were a hundred to one against it. The oak is one of the slowest-growing trees in the world, but it's also one of the strongest. It survives things that cause other trees to die.""Hmm," said Mom. "You know, Elijah, you're something like that tree." Elijah was surprised. "Me? I didn't survive a war or a flood or even one fire--let alone six!"Mom laughed. "No, but I still think you're like that tree.""How?" asked Elijah."Well," said Mom, "for one thing, the oak grows slowly, and you--"Elijah interrupted her. "You always say I'm growing up too fast!" Mom smiled. "That's true--physically. But I was thinking of the way most of us grow spiritually. As Christians, it's often easy to wonder if we're making any progress in becoming more like Jesus." Elijah nodded as he recalled some trouble he'd gotten into recently. "You may grow slowly in Christ," said Mom, "but like that oak, you do grow steadily. And you survive worse things than war or floods. You survive attacks from Satan and struggles with temptation.""But I still do wrong things," Elijah pointed out.Mom nodded. "I know--I do too. All Christians give in to temptation and sin sometimes. But the fact that you feel bad when you sin--and that you don't want to do it again--shows that you're continuing to grow.""Really?" Elijah smiled. "That's pretty cool.""Have faith that God is working to make you grow to be more like Jesus," Mom told him. "Keep working with Him by admitting when you sin and trusting Him to help you change your habits--even when the growing gets tough!" –Nathan RunyonHow About You?Do you ever wonder if you're growing spiritually? If you're a Christian, God is always working in your heart to make you more like Jesus--even when it's hard for you to detect. When you do something wrong, confess your sin and ask God for forgiveness. Then look to Him for the strength you need to resist temptation, and trust Him to help you grow in Him.Today's Key Verse:Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. (NKJV) (2 Peter 3:18)Today's Key Thought:Christians grow in Jesus
