Podcasts about Obsession

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show I sat down with David Royce because his story is completely different from the typical online marketing path. He did not build funnels first or chase trends. He built real businesses in the real world, scaled them with systems, sold them, and then did it again… And again… And again. What fascinated me most was not just the money or the exits, but how intentional he was about learning, focus, culture, and fulfillment along the way. David started knocking doors with zero sales and turned himself into a top performer by obsessively studying sales. That obsession carried him from managing college sales teams to building and selling multiple pest control companies across thousands of cities. In this conversation, we dig into what actually made that possible, the unsexy work most entrepreneurs avoid, and why success without systems eventually collapses. Key Highlights: ◼️How David went from early rejection to elite performance by studying sales daily and treating selling like a craft you train for ◼️Why systems are the real secret to scaling and the simple test he uses to know if a business can grow without the owner ◼️The mindset shift from manager to operator and how he prioritizes tasks so the important work does not get buried under urgent noise ◼️How he built culture intentionally, protected core values while scaling fast, and used outside influences to shape how he led teams ◼️Why his greatest advantage is focus and obsession, how he trains it, and the books he credits for sharpening his thinking across sales, systems, and leadership David also opens up about happiness, obsession, and why the goalpost always moves if fulfillment is tied only to money. We talk about work seasons, choosing the right partner, and why knowing when to step away can be just as important as knowing how to scale. This is a conversation about building something real, learning deeply, and designing a life you actually want to live. ◼️You can find David on LinkedIn if you want to follow what he does next. ◼️If you've got a product, offer, service… or idea… I'll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don't have a funnel?

House Oversight releases a trove of photos but one in particular strikes the fancy of the deep state media. Why Trump may have cause to sue several news outlets who took a publicly known photo of Trump in the 90s with tanning lotion models to insinuate they were Epstein victims. Marco Rubio cuts off one of the last remaining democrat cash flows. Americans are finally awakening to a Muslim invasion that will not work. Just look at Europe. Jasmine Crockett is done picking cotton.

Tycoons are devoted to relentless optimization. If they are founders of a hotel chain, they just might delay the opening of a new property for two months if the marble they ordered for the restaurant is not the precise color. If they are a tech company founder, they'll insist on getting the product to Mona-Lisa-level exquisiteness before it's released (Steve Jobs wanted the icons on the iPhone to be so magical users would want to lick them). If they are entertainment titans they'll be relentless in making sure that their film or album is astonishingly well made, no matter how much they have to suffer to get the job done at rare-air standards.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can't Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I'm absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

Dave Hughes has a complicated relationship with his ego.

Criminal profiling promises certainty in the face of horror: this is what a killer looks like, this is how they think, this is how we stop them. But what if that promise is mostly an illusion? In this episode, Michael Shermer is joined by journalist and author Rachel Corbett to dismantle the myths behind criminal profiling, from the FBI's Behavioral Science Unit to our obsession with serial killers, mindhunters, and "psychological fingerprints." Corbett explains why randomness is harder to accept than evil, and how our hunger for neat explanations can actually make us less safe. Plus, the legacy of MKUltra and Ted Kaczynski, the seductive appeal of true crime, and the uncomfortable truth behind the "Jekyll and Hyde" problem: monsters rarely look like monsters. Rachel Corbett is a features writer at New York magazine, and her writing has also appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times, and The Atlantic. She is the author of You Must Change Your Life, which won the Marfield Prize, the National Award for Arts Writing. Her new book is The Monsters We Make: Murder, Obsession, and the Rise of Criminal Profiling.

They unpack why point-solution companies like Untuckit and Raising Cane's can outperform diversified rivals, examine how competition actually strengthens category demand, and break down the gray zone of mid-market venture exits where founder incentives and investor expectations diverge. The conversation ranges from private equity roll-ups to the realities of cold-calling returning as a top-performing growth channel, to pricing transparency, algorithmic price discrimination, and how everyday behaviors—from mall Santas to $12 club water—reflect deeper strategic forces. It's a fast, practical look at how operators can stay focused, understand market pressure, and avoid chasing the wrong game.—SPONSORS:Pulley is the cap table management platform built for CFOs and finance leaders who need reliable, audit-ready data and intuitive workflows, without the hidden fees or unreliable support.

What if a billion-dollar brand could be built not through hype, but through relentless craftsmanship and purpose-driven focus? In this episode of World's Greatest Business Thinkers, Nick Hague speaks with Will Butler-Adams, CEO of Brompton Bicycles, to unpack how a quirky folding bike became a global icon. Will reveals why engineering excellence beats marketing spend, how disciplined focus fuels sustainable growth, and why manufacturing in London is a strategic advantage, not a sentimental choice. The conversation explores balancing legacy with innovation, maintaining brand integrity under pressure, and treating profit as fuel rather than the finish line. It's a masterclass in building a mission-led brand that customers trust because the product earns it every day. What You Will Learn: How to recognize and seize opportunities that float past you Why obsessing over product quality builds brands more effectively than marketing  The counterintuitive advantage of staying lean and focused in growth How to balance legacy with innovation when inheriting a founder-led business Why manufacturing in the UK costs less than you'd think  The framework for aligning profitability with purpose without sacrificing either   If you enjoyed this episode, make sure to subscribe, rate, and review it on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube Podcasts. Instructions on how to do this are here.   Will Butler-Adams Bio Will Butler-Adams is CEO of Brompton Bicycles, the iconic London-based folding bike manufacturer renowned for its innovative engineering and commitment to sustainable urban mobility. With a background in chemical engineering and lean manufacturing, Butler-Adams has transformed Brompton from a niche operation of 30 people into a global brand producing over 1.2 million bikes, with 80% exported worldwide. Under his leadership, he has pioneered vertically integrated manufacturing in the UK, launched Brompton Electric in collaboration with Williams F1 Advanced Engineering, and positioned the company as a masterclass in purpose-driven business that balances profitability with social and environmental impact.   Quotes: "Opportunities float past us all the time. All of us. It doesn't matter who you are. It's whether you wanna get out there and grab them. And it might be prickly, and it might hurt, but you've gotta do something to make things happen. I thought, no, I'm actually going to contact him, and reorganise three months later to get a train all the way down to London, meet this random person who made these bikes I never heard of." "You only have to think about things you own. Forget the trendy YouTube videos or Instagram posts and forget the cool collaborations and all of that fluffy stuff, the stuff you really, really love. You love it because it works. It's bloody good. If it delivers value, if it makes your life better, if it lasts, if it does go wrong, somebody's there to look after you." "If you really obsess about what you're delivering to the customer and their experience for the entire life of the product, they will do your marketing for you. The average consumer's expectations are quite low because they've been burned so many times with overpromised, over-delivered rubbish. So when you're not shit, they're like, wow, these guys are good." "Our mission isn't to make bicycles. It's to create urban freedom for happier lives. That's our purpose. The bike just helps us get there. Our purpose is what we're here for. I'm not gonna get out of bed to make a shareholder rich. If we don't make a profit, we can't innovate, we can't grow, we can't communicate."   Episode Resources: Will Butler-Adams on LinkedIn Brompton Bicycle Website  Nick Hague on LinkedIn World's Greatest Business Thinkers on Apple Podcasts World's Greatest Business Thinkers on Spotify World's Greatest Business Thinkers on YouTube

In this episode of The Chorus in the Chaos, Jack and Blake dive into one of America's most unusual and influential cult movements: the rise of spiritualism in the 19th century. Beginning with a biblical narrative—the chilling account of Saul and the Witch of Endor—the episode moves through the dramatic story of the Fox Sisters, the national craze for seances, and the cultural wounds left open by the Civil War. You'll discover how spiritualism promised comfort in a time of uncertainty, why it grew so quickly, and even how magician Harry Houdini became its most vocal opponent. Blending historical storytelling, cultural analysis, and theological clarity, this episode shines a light on a movement that still shapes modern (evil) ideas about mediums, ghosts, and “communicating with the dead.”   Connect Website & Blog: www.chorusinthechaos.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chorusinthec...

Enjoy Nate's interview on Martens Minute! GML will return this week.  Nate Thurston, co-host of the Good Morning Liberty podcast and former guitarist for the band Darling Parade, joins me to share his powerful journey through alcoholism and recovery. He opens up about his struggles with alcohol and addiction as a touring musician, and how his alcoholism spiraled out of control as his music career came to an end, nearly costing him his life. With the support of his wife, Nate confronted his addiction, quit drinking, and rebuilt his life. Now seven years sober, he enjoys a happy marriage, hosts a successful podcast, and is a respected figure in the liberty community. His advice to those struggling with addiction: You don't have to commit to quitting forever today—that can feel overwhelming. Instead, choose each morning to stay sober for that day. Find meaning in your life, channel it into a passion, and pursue it with purpose.   00:00 Intro 03:08 The Start of Nate's Music Journey 06:26 Alcoholism and the Music Industry 12:01 Struggles with Success and Addiction 24:40 Hitting Rock Bottom 42:02 Reflecting on Past Mistakes and Luck 44:26 Finding Meaning in Everyday Work 47:28 The Turning Point: Admitting the Problem 49:13 Support Systems and Personal Responsibility 54:22 Overcoming Social Anxiety and Alcohol Triggers 01:03:26 Rebuilding Life with New Goals 01:14:06 Advice for Those Hitting Rock Bottom

When we last left you, former Amishman Eli Stutzman was having a little trouble with the law. He'd abandoned the Amish lifestyle after the suspicious death of his wife and was currently going on a tour of the US, sleeping with any man with a pulse. His son, Danny, was starting to show signs of severe abuse, but no one in his life stepped forward to report it. Finally, Eli's roommate/employee was found murdered in a ditch in Texas. Join us now for the conclusion of this chilling true story.Sources: Gregg Olsen, Abandoned Prayers: An Incredible True Story of Murder, Obsession, and Amish Secretshttps://amishamerica.com/do-amish-believe-taking-a-photo-captures-their-souls/ https://www.ohiosamishcountry.com/articles/photography-and-the-amish https://www.ohiosamishcountry.com/articles/the-traditional-amish-youth-period-of-rumspringa https://language.mki.wisc.edu/essays/pennsylvania-dutch/#:~:text=While%20most%20Amish%20and%20Old,Lutheran%20or%20German%20Reformed%20affiliation.Investigation Discovery's "Murder in Amish Country," episode "Amish Serial Killer"Follow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/truecrimecampfire/?hl=enTwitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-campfire--4251960/support.

Picture this: the gods have come and gone, dynasties have risen and face-planted, cities have popped up and crumbled, tourists have come, posed, and posted a million thirst traps on Instagram… but the Sphinx is still just sitting there like, “Yeah, I'll wait.”Today we're heading to Giza to talk about the world's most famous stone cat with a people head: the Great Sphinx of Egypt. It's massive, it's mysterious, it's eroding faster than our faith in humanity, and it sits at the crossroads of legit science, wild speculation, and whatever the hell Edgar Cayce was doing.We're going to walk through what the Sphinx actually is, what we think we know about its history, how old it might be, why people keep insisting there's a secret Atlantean library under its paws, what modern tech like ground-penetrating radar and fancy satellite scans are actually showing under the Giza plateau, and why so many folks see Dr. Zahi Hawass as the final boss of “Nothing To See Here, Move Along.”Strap on the sunscreen, adjust your tinfoil nemes, and get ready for Hysteria 51.Special thanks to this week's research sources:Main References Mentioned in the EpisodeLehner, Mark.The Complete Pyramids: Solving the Ancient Mysteries.London: Thames & Hudson, 1997.Hawass, Zahi.The Secrets of the Sphinx: Restoration Past and Present.Cairo: American University in Cairo Press, 1998.Jordan, Paul.Riddles of the Sphinx.New York: New York University Press, 1998.Gauri, K.

When you're asked to “sign in blue or black ink,” is that actually the law — or just an outdated rule we all obey? We begin with the surprising truth about which ink colors really matter when you're signing checks, contracts, or legal documents. Source: https://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/061314/dont-sign-legal-pitfalls-signatures.asp Why are humans endlessly fascinated by aliens? For thousands of years, every culture has looked to the sky and wondered who—or what—might be out there. Today, that fascination fuels movies, conspiracy theories, and serious scientific searches for extraterrestrial life. Science journalist Becky Ferreira, contributor to NPR's Science Friday, The New York Times, Wired, and Popular Science, joins me to explain why our obsession runs so deep. She's the author of First Contact: The Story Of Our Obsession with Aliens.(https://amzn.to/43HzgLp). Loneliness is rising, especially during the holidays. And the science is clear — friendships and social ties aren't just emotionally important; they directly affect your longevity, immune system, and overall health. Ken Stern, founder of the Longevity Project, former CEO of NPR, and author of Healthy to 100: How Strong Social Ties Lead to Long Lives (https://amzn.to/4ranyTB) , reveals why social connection is essential and how to build it, even if it feels hard. Finally, is sitting with your legs crossed actually bad for you? You've probably heard it causes varicose veins or circulatory issues — but is that true? We share what a top vascular surgeon says about the real risks (and the myths).

Confused about carbs? Not sure if you really need to track calories? Or maybe you're trying to figure out how to build muscle without feeling like you're just gaining fluff? In this Q&A episode, I'm breaking down some listener questions — including what "net carbs" actually means, when tracking can be helpful (and when it's not), and how to eat to build lean muscle without unwanted fat gain.

Jeff Lax, a CUNY law professor and founder of SAFE CAMPUS, said former Fox News host Tucker Carlson has crossed into “dangerous antisemitic territory,” following Carlson's widely criticized interview with far-right activist Nick Fuentes, an avowed Hitler admirer, yimakh shemo ve'zikhro, and Holocaust denier. In a detailed discussion with VINnews contributor Alan Skorski, Lax said Carlson's recent commentary and guest choices reflect a disturbing pattern. “There were warning signs early on,” Lax said, “but after the Fuentes interview and the repeated smears against Israel and Jewish conservatives, it's clear what direction he's taken.” Fuentes appeared on Carlson's digital platform in October 2025, where he was given extended, largely unchallenged time to promote conspiratorial claims about Israel and its supporters. Carlson at times echoed similar themes, particularly in criticizing Israel's military actions in Gaza. Carlson told viewers that “you have to judge people on their behavior, not on their blood,” before accusing Israeli leaders of suggesting Palestinians are “stained from birth.” Fuentes, in the same interview, claimed Israel views all Palestinians as inherently “guilty.” The backlash intensified as Carlson labeled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu an “enemy of Western civilization” and compared forms of Zionism to Nazism, saying: “Why are the Nazis bad? They're bad for that exact same reason… Any belief system that starts by declaring one group morally superior to another violates Western values.” The controversy also triggered turmoil within the conservative movement. After Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts declined to distance the organization from Carlson, several members of Heritage's antisemitism task force — including Rabbi Yaakov Menken, attorney Mark Goldfeder, and Christian Zionist leader Laurie Cardoza Moore — resigned in protest. Skorski noted that Carlson aggressively challenges pro-Israel guests while offering sympathetic platforms to Israel's harshest critics. The only exception cited was an interview with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), during which Carlson repeatedly interrupted the senator's defense of Israel. “Carlson insists he isn't antisemitic,” Skorski said. “But he consistently targets Jewish figures who strongly support Israel — Ben Shapiro, Mark Levin, AIPAC supporters — while giving a free pass to their most extreme opponents. He claims he's criticizing their ‘views,' yet he repeatedly distorts those views and amplifies their adversaries.” The dispute marks one of the most significant breaks between Carlson and conservative Jewish leaders to date, with critics warning that his growing alignment with extremist voices poses a serious threat to the broader discourse on Israel and antisemitism. -VIN News Alan Skorski Reports - 03DEC2025 - PODCAST

PART OF THE STORY—Susan Casey has won National Magazine Awards for editing, writing, and design—a feat that may well be unprecedented in the industry's history.In her native Canada, they call people like this “Wayne Gretzky.”She has worked—under various titles—for the following magazines: The Globe & Mail, Outside, Time, Esquire, eCompany, Business 2.0, Sports Illustrated Women, National Geographic, Fortune, and O, The Oprah Magazine. She also worked for the iconic 1990s fashion brand Esprit. These days—literally on any given day—you're likely to find Casey in the water, where she spent much of her childhood, later with the swim team at the University of Arizona, and, as an adult, as the author of four immersive books—all best sellers—about the ocean: The Wave: In Pursuit of the Rogues, Freaks, and Giants of the Ocean; The Devil's Teeth: A True Story of Obsession and Survival Among America's Great White Sharks; Voices in the Ocean: A Journey Into the Wild and Haunting World of Dolphins; and her most recent, The Underworld: Journeys to the Depths of the Ocean.A self-proclaimed “outspoken designer” early in her career, she refused to accept the career path limits others imposed and instead laid the groundwork for a rich creative life.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

In this episode of Chloe vs The World, Chloe is joined by Ieuan Cooke for a full deep dive into the worlds of Wicked, The Hunger Games, Fourth Wing, and the many corners of BookTok they both obsess over. From fantasy worlds, romance tropes and smut scenes to rereading Twilight as adults, this one goes everywhere.They break down why Wicked confused so many first-time viewers, who they'd cast in future Hunger Games films, and the book series that have taken over their lives this year. They get into Fourth Wing, A Court Of Thorns and Roses, dragons, fanfiction, reading habits, and the chaos of TikTok edits.There's plenty outside of books too - including rugby boy culture, animated character crushes, acting dreams, retail horror stories, star signs, Saturn Returns, and their most unhinged delulu moments. Ieuan shares his funniest DMs, his main character vision of life, what his “villain era” would look like, and why he once removed a tooth gem with a hammer.They also chat Twilight (and why some scenes haven't aged well), Bridgerton, Wicked casting, Les Mis, theatre recommendations, and the TV shows they've binged recently. Expect conversations about pop stars, celebrity crushes, TikTok trends, edits, music, and the corners of the internet they spend far too long on.Listen to the FULL PODCAST and follow us on:Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4UjhcQP...Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@chloevsthewor...Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/chloevsthew...Chloe: https://www.instagram.com/chloeburrows/?hl=enDilemmas: chloevstheworldsubmissions@gmail.com

The thing about serial killers is that it seems so obvious to us after the fact, right? Their behavior is so outrageous and so antisocial that we're always left wondering why no one noticed. Eli Stutzman's strange behavior was written off by everyone that knew him. He was quiet and odd, but being raised Amish, who could blame him? To the Amish, his time spent with the Englisch gave him some strange habits. No one really blinked when he stabbed himself in order to get himself out of a sticky situation. No one wondered about why he lied constantly. And perhaps if they did, Eli's son and at least 4 other people would still be alive. This is part 2 of Left Where God Could Find Him: Amish Serial Killer Eli Stutzman.Heads up that there is some discussion of child abuse and child sexual abuse in this episode. We do not go into deep detail.Sources: Gregg Olsen, Abandoned Prayers: An Incredible True Story of Murder, Obsession, and Amish Secretshttps://amishamerica.com/do-amish-believe-taking-a-photo-captures-their-souls/ https://www.ohiosamishcountry.com/articles/photography-and-the-amish https://www.ohiosamishcountry.com/articles/the-traditional-amish-youth-period-of-rumspringa https://language.mki.wisc.edu/essays/pennsylvania-dutch/#:~:text=While%20most%20Amish%20and%20Old,Lutheran%20or%20German%20Reformed%20affiliation.Investigation Discovery's "Murder in Amish Country," episode "Amish Serial Killer"Follow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/truecrimecampfire/?hl=enTwitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-campfire--4251960/support.
