Kitty Martone is back with us wearing her Healthy Gut Girl hat and to talk to us on many matters of gut health and hormones. And especially how trauma and stress are an important consideration that we should not overlook when considering our hormone health. If you recall, Kitty was with me on the podcast just before Christmas discussing ONAS natural hormone therapy and progesterone for feeling your best during the perimenopause transition. The start of this current conversation with Kitty sees us both open up about our beginning of life experiences and how that has molded us each as a person. We then transition into gut health, detoxification and addressing hormone imbalances. We hope you very much enjoy this conversation and we look forward to hearing your feedback. :) Kitty Martone, Healthy Gut Girl. is a holistic health educator, nutritional counselor, and master herbalist with over 17 years of experience in gut and hormone health.

Natalie has a background in nutritional biochemistry and is currently pursuing a MS in food science. Growing up in New Zealand, she was inspired by her Māori upbringing to explore the value of growing your own food. Specifically, the Māori saying ‘he kai kei aku ringa' which means ‘food from my hands' struck a chord with Natalie. For Natalie, this notion underlined the current disconnect between people, food, and nutrition in contemporary society.After studying food and nutrition extensively, she concluded that growing microgreens from home and tapping directly into their immense nutritional potency was the best way to seamlessly make people's lives more nutritious and sustainable. With Ingarden, Natalie has found a way to improve how we nourish ourselves through innovative, fresh, and accessible nutrition without sacrificing ease or convenience.ingarden — With this fully automated indoor garden, everyone can successfully grow organic, nutrient-dense microgreens at home all year round.Use Kitty10 and get 10% off towards your very own.

À Kigali, les bars à lait, véritable institution de la capitale rwandaise, ont fait les frais de la saison sèche prolongée. Cette année, faute de pluie et de nourriture pour les vaches, la production de lait, aliment central de l'alimentation de beaucoup de Rwandais, a chuté. Une situation difficile pour les distributeurs, mais aussi pour les consommateurs, habitués à leur verre de lait journalier. Onas, vendeur de cartes sim dans le centre-ville de Kigali, est attablé devant une belle pinte d'Ikivuguto, ce lait fermenté typiquement rwandais. « J'aime le lait de ce bar. Tous les jours quand je travaille, je viens boire du lait ici. Il est vraiment délicieux et je ne me sens pas bien quand je ne peux pas en boire. Donc je viens ici même pendant les jours de congé. » À la table d'à côté, deux jeunes filles discutent en dégustant un verre de lait chaud et des beignets, au coin de la pièce un homme âgé boit à petites gorgées son Ishyshyu, ce lait frais, servi comme une bière pression, directement depuis la citerne de lait derrière le comptoir. À la caisse, le manager, Danson Butera, compte soigneusement la monnaie. « En règle générale c'est un bon business, puisque les Rwandais aiment beaucoup le lait. Ça dépend de la taille du bar, mais les petits peuvent avoir deux ou trois employés. Les grands ça monte jusqu'à six personnes. Ici nous avons cinq employés », explique-t-il. Le litre de lait a augmenté de 60% Mais depuis des semaines, Kigali connait une pénurie de lait, à cause du retard des pluies selon le ministère de l'Agriculture et les affaires de Danson vont mal. « C'est vraiment un gros problème. À cause du manque de lait, on a dû augmenter le prix du litre de lait qui est passé de 50 centimes d'euros à 80 centimes. L'ikivougouto a aussi augmenté ». Le lait industriel vendu en magasin a également beaucoup augmenté selon plusieurs commerçants et des messages de consommateurs sur les réseaux sociaux. Selon des chiffres du ministère de l'Agriculture les cinq principales usines laitières du pays reçoivent actuellement seulement 72 000 litres de lait par jour, soit seulement un tiers de leur approvisionnement en temps normal. Certains bars à lait de Kigali restent donc désespérément vides. Esther n'a pas eu de livraison depuis deux jours. « Nous perdons des clients, et nous, nous avons du mal à payer le loyer. Les clients se plaignent beaucoup. Les familles avec des petits enfants ont besoin de lait chaque jour. Et puis il y a ceux qui adorent le lait et qui sont obligés de s'en passer », raconte la commerçante. Ce n'est pas la première pénurie de lait qu'a connu le Rwanda, mais la plus longue selon le ministère de l'Agriculture, qui ajoute que la situation est en train de s'améliorer avec l'arrivée récente des premières pluies.
Join me as I interview Morley Robbins and we chat about the long awaited book CUre. Get in HERE. The Root Cause Protocol (RCP) was developed by Morley Robbins, who transformed a career in the mainstream medical industry into a quest to learn the fundamental components of a healthy metabolism. The RCP is the culmination of his many years of research and is revolutionary in its approach to health from a truly holistic perspective, by looking at the whole organism and how all the elements work together, rather than limiting the focus to isolated nutrients or conditions.The RCP works by restoring balance to the key minerals – magnesium, copper and iron – that must work together in order to optimize energy and increase vitality.Restoring balance is a big undertaking, and the goal of the list below and the Handbook is to break it down into small pieces that can be easily integrated into a healthy lifestyle.Get Grassfed and finished ground beef for life when you sign up for your Butcher Box NOWCalm Cream with CBD and Progesterone for panic attacks and high cortisol click here Progesterone use coupon Onas for 10% offThe next level of GUT HEALTHClick here to begin to seal your leaky gutUSE YOUR COUPON CODE TO get 20% off using HGG20 for the ONLY SPOREBASED probiotics AND THE IMPORTANT FORM OF K-2 MK7 form for our aging brains and UT123https://justthrivehealth.com/?rfsn=1704955.7b64423beSpeaking of HEALTHY FATS!

Eating leafy greens could help prevent macular degeneration Westmead Institute for Medical Research (Australia), October 13, 2021 A new study has shown that eating vegetable nitrates, found mainly in green leafy vegetables and beetroot, could help reduce your risk of developing early-stage age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Researchers at the Westmead Institute for Medical Research interviewed more than 2,000 Australian adults aged over 49 and followed them over a 15-year period. The research showed that people who ate between 100 to 142 mgs of vegetable nitrates each day had a 35% lower risk of developing early AMD than people who ate less than 69mgs of vegetable nitrates each day. Lead Researcher Associate Professor Bamini Gopinath from the Westmead Institute and the University of Sydney said the link between vegetable nitrates and macular degeneration could have important implications. "This is the first time the effects of dietary nitrates on macular degeneration risk has been measured. "Essentially we found that people who ate 100 to 142 mgs of vegetable nitrates every day had a reduced risk of developing early signs of macular degeneration compared with people who ate fewer nitrates. "If our findings are confirmed, incorporating a range of foods rich in dietary nitrates - like green leafy vegetables and beetroot - could be a simple strategy to reduce the risk of early macular degeneration," Associate Professor Gopinath said. Spinach has approximately 20mg of nitrate per 100g, while beetroot has nearly 15mg of nitrate per 100g. The research did not show any additional benefits for people who exceeded 142mgs of dietary nitrate each day. It also did not show any significant connections between vegetable nitrates and late stage AMD, or between non-vegetable nitrates and AMD risk. One in seven Australians over 50 have some signs of macular degeneration. Age is the strongest known risk factor and the disease is more likely to occur after the age of 50. There is currently no cure for the disease. The research compiled data from the Blue Mountains Eye Study, a benchmark population-based study that started in 1992. It is one of the world's largest epidemiology studies, measuring diet and lifestyle factors against health outcomes and a range of chronic diseases. "Our research aims to understand why eye diseases occur, as well as the genetic and environmental conditions that may threaten vision," Associate Professor Gopinath concluded. Research review shows intermittent fasting works for weight loss, health changes University of Illinois Chicago, October 13, 2021 Intermittent fasting can produce clinically significant weight loss as well as improve metabolic health in individuals with obesity, according to a new study review led by University of Illinois Chicago researchers. "We noted that intermittent fasting is not better than regular dieting; both produce the same amount of weight loss and similar changes in blood pressure, cholesterol and inflammation," said Krista Varady, professor of nutrition at the UIC College of Applied Health Sciences and author of "Cardiometabolic Benefits of Intermittent Fasting." According to the analysis published in the Annual Review of Nutrition, all forms of fasting reviewed produced mild to moderate weight loss, 1 percent to 8 percent from baseline weight, which represents results that are similar to that of more traditional, calorie-restrictive diets. Intermittent fasting regimens may also benefit health by decreasing blood pressure and insulin resistance, and in some cases, cholesterol and triglyceride levels are also lowered. Other health benefits, such as improved appetite regulation and positive changes in the gut microbiome, have also been demonstrated. The review looked at over 25 research studies involving three types of intermittent fasting: Alternate day fasting, which typically involves a feast day alternated with a fast day where 500 calories are consumed in one meal. 5:2 diet, a modified version of alternate day fasting that involves five feast days and two fast days per week. Time-restricted eating, which confines eating to a specified number of hours per day, usually four to 10 hours, with no calorie restrictions during the eating period. Various studies of time-restricted eating show participants with obesity losing an average of 3 percent of their body weight, regardless of the time of the eating window. Studies showed alternate day fasting resulted in weight loss of 3 percent to 8 percent of body weight over three to eight weeks, with results peaking at 12 weeks. Individuals on alternate day fasting typically do not overeat or binge on feast days, which results in mild to moderate weight loss, according to the review. Studies for the 5:2 diet showed similar results to alternate day fasting, which surprised the study's reviewers. The subjects who participate in the 5:2 diet fast much less frequently than alternate-day fasting participants do, but the weight loss results are similar. Weight loss with alternate day and 5:2 fasting are comparable to more traditional daily calorie-restrictive diets. And, both fasting diets showed individuals were able to maintain an average of 7 percent weight loss for a year. "You're fooling your body into eating a little bit less and that's why people are losing weight," Varady said. Varady added the review set out to debunk some myths regarding intermittent fasting. Intermittent fasting does not negatively affect metabolism, nor does it cause disordered eating, according to the studies reviewed. "Fasting people are worried about feeling lethargic and not being able to concentrate. Even though you are not eating, it won't affect your energy," Varady said. "A lot of people experience a boost of energy on fasting days. Don't worry, you won't feel crappy. You may even feel better." The study review includes a summary of practical considerations for those who may want to try intermittent fasting. Among the considerations are: Adjustment time—Side effects such as headaches, dizziness and constipation subside after one to two weeks of fasting. Increased water intake can help alleviate headaches caused by dehydration during this time. Exercise—Moderate to high-intensity endurance or resistance training during food abstention can be done, and some study participants reported having more energy on fast days. However, studies recommend those following alternate day fasting eat their fasting day meal after exercise. Diet during fasting—There are no specific recommendations for food consumption during intermittent fasting, but eating fruits, vegetables and whole grains can help boost fiber intake and help relieve constipation that sometimes accompanies fasting. Alcohol and caffeine—For those using an alternate day or 5:2 fasting plan, alcohol is not recommended on fast days as the limited calories should be used on healthy foods that provide nutrition. There are several groups who should not intermittent fast, according to the studies. Those individuals include: Those who are pregnant or lactating. Children under 12. Those with a history of disordered eating. Those with a body mass index, or BMI, less than 18.5. Shift workers. Studies have shown they may struggle with fasting regimens because of shifting work schedules. Those who need to take medication with food at regimented times. "People love intermittent fasting because it's easy. People need to find diets that they can stick to long term. It's definitely effective for weight loss and it's gained popularity because there are no special foods or apps necessary. You can also combine it with other diets, like Keto," Varady said. Varady has recently been awarded a National Institutes of Health grant to study time-restricted eating for 12 months to see if it works long term. Antioxidants to prevent Alzheimer's disease A balanced intake of antioxidants could prevent the development of Alzheimer's disease. Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (France), October 13, 2021 Research conducted by the Ph.D student Mohamed Raâfet Ben Khedher and the postdoctoral researcher Mohamed Haddad of the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) has shown that an oxidation-antioxidant imbalance in the blood is an early indicator of Alzheimer's disease, rather than a consequence. This breakthrough made by researchers under the supervision of the Professor Charles Ramassamy provides an avenue for preventive intervention: the antioxidants intake. The research team showed that oxidative markers, known to be involved in Alzheimer's disease, show an increase up to five years before the onset of the disease. The results of this study, published in the Alzheimer's & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring (DADM) journal, suggest that oxidation may be an early marker of this disease that affects more than 500,000 Canadians. “Given that there is an increase in oxidative stress in people who develop the disease, we may regulate the antioxidant systems. For example, we could modulate the antioxidant systems, such as apolipoproteins J and D, which transport lipids and cholesterol in the blood and play an important role in brain function and Alzheimer's disease. Another avenue would be to increase the intake of antioxidants through nutrition”, says Professor Ramassamy. Accessible biomarkers Unlike the current set of invasive and expensive tests used to diagnose Alzheimer's disease, the oxidative markers discovered by Professor Ramassamy's research team can be detected by a blood test. These markers are found in plasma extracellular vesicles, which are pockets released by all cells in the body, including those in the brain. The research team focused specifically on the "sporadic" Alzheimer's disease, the most common form of the disease which results primarily from the presence of the APOE4 susceptibility gene. This same form of the disease had been studied by the team for other early markers. “By identifying oxidative markers in the blood of individuals at risk five years before the onset of the disease, we could make recommendations to slow the onset of the disease and limit the risks”, scientists noted. This breakthrough brings new hope to Alzheimer's research. Once the disease is symptomatic, it is difficult, if not impossible, to reverse it. Meditation training reduces long-term stress, according to hair analysis Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences (Germany), October 11, 2021 Mental training that promotes skills such as mindfulness, gratitude or compassion reduces the concentration of the stress hormone cortisol in hair. This is what scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig and the Social Neuroscience Research Group of the Max Planck Society in Berlin have found out. The amount of cortisol in hair provides information about how much a person is burdened by persistent stress. Earlier positive training effects had been shown in acutely stressful situations or on individual days—or were based on study participants' self-reports. According to a study by the Techniker Krankenkasse, 23 percent of people in Germany frequently suffer from stress. This condition not only puts a strain on the well-being of those affected, but it is also linked to a number of physiological diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and psychological disorders such as depression, one of the world's leading causes of disease burden (Global Burden of Disease Study, 2017). Therefore, effective methods are being sought to reduce everyday stress in the long term. One promising option is mindfulness training, in which participants train their cognitive and social skills, including attention, gratitude and compassion, through various meditation and behavioral exercises. Various studies have already shown that even healthy people feel less stressed after a typical eight-week training program. Until now, however, it has been unclear how much the training actually contributes to reducing the constant burden of everyday stress. The problem with many previous studies on chronic stress is that the study participants were usually asked to self-assess their stress levels after the training. However, this self-reporting by means of questionnaires could have distorted the effects and made the results appear more positive than they actually were. The reason for such a bias: The participants knew they were training their mindfulness, and a reduction in stress levels was a desired effect of this training. This awareness alone has an impact on subsequent information. "If you are asked whether you are stressed after a training session that is declared as stress-reducing, even addressing this question can distort the statements," explains Lara Puhlmann, doctoral student at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences and first author of the underlying publication, which has now appeared in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine. Factors such as social desirability and placebo effects played a role here. Unlike pharmacological studies, for example, in which the study participants do not know whether they have actually received the active substance or not, so-called blinded studies are not possible in mental training. "The participants know that they are ingesting the 'antidote,'" says Puhlmann. "In mindfulness research, we are therefore increasingly using more objective, i.e. physiological, methods to measure the stress-reducing effect more precisely." The concentration of cortisol in hair is considered a suitable measure of exposure to prolonged stress. Cortisol is a hormone that is released when we are confronted with an overwhelming challenge, for example. In that particular situation, it helps put our body on alert and mobilize energy to overcome the challenge. The longer the stress lasts, the longer an increased concentration of cortisol circulates around our body—and the more it accumulates in our hair. On average, hair grows one centimeter per month. To measure the study participants' stress levels during the 9-month training, the researchers, in cooperation with the working group of Clemens Kirschbaum at the University of Dresden, analyzed the amount of cortisol every three months in the first three centimeters of hair, starting at the scalp. The mental training itself was developed as part of a large-scale longitudinal study on the effects of mental training, the ReSource project, led by Tania Singer, scientific director of the Social Neuroscience Research Group. This 9-month mental training program consisted of three 3-month sessions, each designed to train a specific skill area using Western and Far Eastern mental exercises. The focus was either on the factors of attention and mindfulness, on socio-affective skills such as compassion and gratitude, or on so-called socio-cognitive skills, in particular the ability to take perspective on one's own and others' thoughts. Three groups of about 80 participants each completed the training modules in different order. The training lasted up to nine months, 30 minutes a day, six days a week. Less stress, less cortisol And it really showed: After six months of training, the amount of cortisol in the subjects' hair had decreased significantly, on average by 25 percent. In the first three months, slight effects were seen at first, which increased over the following three months. In the last third, the concentration remained at a low level. The researchers therefore assume that only sufficiently long training leads to the desired stress-reducing effects. The effect did not seem to depend on the content of the training. It is therefore possible that several of the mental approaches studied are similarly effective in improving the way people deal with chronic everyday stress. In an earlier study from the ReSource project with the same sample, the researchers had investigated the effects of training on dealing with acute stressful situations. In this study, the participants were placed in a stressful job interview and had to solve difficult maths problems under observation. The results showed that people who had undergone socio-cognitive or socio-affective training released up to 51 percent less cortisol under stress than those who had not been trained. In this case, they did not measure the amount of cortisol in the subjects' hair, but instead acute cortisolsurges in their saliva. Overall, the researchers conclude that training can improve the handling of acute particularly stressful social situations as well as chronic everyday stress. "We assume that different training aspects are particularly helpful for these different forms of stress," says Veronika Engert, head of the research group "Social Stress and Family Health" at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences. "There are many diseases worldwide, including depression, that are directly or indirectly related to long-term stress," explains Puhlmann. "We need to work on counteracting the effects of chronic stress in a preventive way. Our study uses physiological measurements to prove that meditation-based training interventions can alleviate general stress levels even in healthy individuals." Study: Moderate carbohydrate intake is a cardiovascular benefit for women Monash University (Australia), October 13, 2021 Women's heart health has been the focus of a recent study by Monash University, with researchers finding that proportional carbohydrate intake and not saturated fat was significantly associated with cardiovascular disease benefit in Australian women. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in women. Poor diet is recognized as both an independent CVD risk factor and a contributor to other CVD risk factors, such as obesity, diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension, and dyslipidaemia. The research found that in middle-aged Australian women, increasing the percentage of carbohydrate intake was significantly associated with reduced odds of CVD, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and obesity. Furthermore, a moderate carbohydrate intake between 41.0 percent—44.3 percent of total energy intake was associated with the lowest risk of CVD compared to women who consumed less than 37 percent energy as carbohydrates. No significant relationship was demonstrated between proportional carbohydrate intake and all-cause mortality. In addition, increasing proportional saturated fat intake was not associated with cardiovascular disease or mortality in women; rather, increasing saturated fat intakecorrelated with lower odds of developing diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and obesity. The findings are now published in the British Medical Journal. The results contradict much of the historical epidemiological research that supported a link between saturated fat and CVD. Instead, the results mirror contemporary meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies where saturated fat was found to have no significant relationship with total mortality or CVD. While the cause of this inconsistency in the literature is unclear, it has been suggested that historical studies neglected to adjust for fiber, which is known to help prevent plaque from forming in the arteries. "Controversy still exists surrounding the best diet to prevent CVD," said Sarah Zaman, a former Monash University professor who is now an associate professor at the University of Sydney. "A low-fat diet has historically been the mainstay of primary prevention guidelines, but the major issue within our dietary guidelines is that many dietary trials have predominately involved male participants or lacked sex-specific analyses." She adds: "Further research is needed to tailor our dietary guidelines according to sex." The study's first author Sarah Gribbin, a Doctor of Medicine and BMedSc (Hons) student, says: "As an observational study, our findings only show association and not causation. Our research is purely hypothesis-generating. We are hoping that our findings will spark future research into sex-specific dietary research." The Heart Foundation, which is one of the study's funders, welcomed the focus on women and CVD, which has historically been under-researched. Heart Foundation manager, food and nutrition, Eithne Cahill, cautioned that "not all carbohydrates are created equal." "We know that quality carbohydrate foods such as vegetables and whole grains—including whole grain bread, cereals, and pasta—are beneficial for heart health, whereas poor quality carbohydrates such as white bread, biscuits, cakes, and pastries can increase risk," she said. "Similarly, different fats have different effects on heart health. That is why the Heart Foundation focuses on healthy eating patterns—that is, a combination of foods, chosen regularly over time—rather than a single nutrient or food. Include plenty of vegetables, fruit, and whole grains, and heart-healthy fat choices such as nuts, seeds, avocados, olives and their oils for cooking and a variety of healthy proteins especially seafood, beans and lentils, eggs and dairy." Anti-cancer effects found in natural compound derived from onions Kumamoto University (Japan), October 18, 2021 Research from Kumamoto University, Japan has found that a natural compound isolated from onions, onionin A (ONA), has several anti-ovarian cancer properties. This discovery is a result of research on the effects of ONA on a preclinical model of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) both in vivo and in vitro. This research comes from the same group that found ONA suppressed pro-tumor activation of host myeloid cells. According to a 2014 review of cancer medicines from the World Health Organization, EOC is the most common type of ovarian cancer and has a 5-year survival rate of approximately 40%. It has a relatively low lifetime risk that is less than 1%, but that can increase up to 40% if there is a family history of the disease. A majority of patients (80%) experience a relapse after their initial treatment with chemotherapy, therefore a more effective line of treatment is needed. Kumamoto University researchers found that ONA has several effects on EOC. The group's in vitro experiments showed that EOCs, which usually proliferate in the presence of pro-tumor M2 macrophages, showed inhibited growth after introduction of ONA. This was thought to be due to ONAs influence on STAT3, a transcription factor known to be involved in both M2 polarization and cancer cell proliferation. Furthermore, the team found that ONA inhibited the pro-tumor functions of myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC), which are closely associated with the suppression of the anti-tumor immune response of host lymphocytes, by using preclinical sarcoma model. ONA was also found to enhance the effects of anti-cancer drugs by strengthening their anti-proliferation capabilities. Moreover, experiments on an ovarian cancer murine model that investigated the effects of orally administered ONA resulted in longer lifespans and inhibited ovarian cancer tumor development. This was considered to be a result of ONA's suppression of M2 polarized macrophages. The research shows that ONA reduces the progression of malignant ovarian cancer tumors by interfering with the pro-tumor function of myeloid cells. ONA appears to activate anti-tumor immune responses by nullifying the immunosuppressive function of myeloid cells. ONA has the potential to enhance existing anti-cancer drugs while also having little to no cytotoxic effects on normal cells. Additionally, side effects in animals have not been seen. With a little more testing, an oral ONA supplement should greatly benefit cancer patients. Risk of chronic diseases caused by exogenous chemical residues Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (China), October 13, 2021 Chronic diseases are main killers affecting the health of human. The morbidities of major chronic diseases such as obesity, hypertension, diabetes, hyperuricemia and dyslipidemia are as high as 10% to 30%, showing a gradually upward trend as well. More and more studies have shown that environmental pollution is a major health risk factor that cannot be ignored. However, the evidence for their relationship is equivocal and the underlying mechanisms is unclear. Recently, a research group led by Prof. Xu Guowang from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) discovered the risk of chronic diseases caused by exogenous chemical residues through metabolome-wide association study. Their findings were published in Environment International on Oct. 8. Researchers from National Institute for Nutrition and Health of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology were also involved in this study. The researchers discovered positive associations of serum perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) with hyperuricemia, and revealed the mechanism of the relationship between the exogenous chemical residues in the serum and the risk of chronic diseases at the metabolic level. The researchers investigated the relationship between 106 exogenous chemical residues and five chronic diseases in 496 serum samples. They revealed the metabolic perturbations related to exogenous chemical residues and chronic diseases by the metabolome-wide association study combined with meeting-in-the-middle approach and mediation analysis, and investigated the further potential underlying mechanism at the metabolic level. "PFASs were the risk factor for hyperuricemia," said Prof. Xu. Lipid species including glycerophospholipids and glycerides presented the strongest correlation with exposure and disease, which were not only positively related to PFASs exposure but also the risk factor for hyperuricemia. "We also found that key mediation metabolites mediated 25% to 68% of the exposure-disease risk relationship," Prof. Xu added. This study provides in-depth etiological understanding for the occurrence and development of diseases, which may be helpful for the early detection of the disease and the identification of early warning markers.

Health Coach and Men's Health Advocate LaRue Palmer is also a culinary chef, formerly with Elon Musk's company SpaceX. LaRue's soon to be released book about men's health was inspired by his experiences working at SpaceX, where he was able to observe male behavior concerning diet and lifestyle.His book Man Cave of Health speaks frankly and boldly to men and the women in their lives about what it will take to get men off the endangered species list. LaRue's perspective from his years of coaching is that masculinity is a risk factor for poor health and early death, as opposed to just being male.Always one to follow his own sound health advice, LaRue recently recovered from bladder cancer because he noticed symptoms that led to an early diagnosis, instead of ignoring them like so many men do.GET YOUR COPY OF MAN CAVE OF HEALTH ON AMAZONAlso mentioned in this podcast:Get Grassfed and finished ground beef for life when you sign up for your Butcher Box NOWSupport Progesterone Production and Hormone Balance use coupon Onas for 10% offThe next level of GUT HEALTHUSE YOUR COUPON CODE TO get 20% off using HGG20 for the ONLY SPOREBASED probiotics AND THE IMPORTANT FORM OF K-2 MK7 form for our aging brains and UT123https://justthrivehealth.com/?rfsn=1704955.7b64423beSpeaking of HEALTHY FATS!

A Journey You Didn't Realize You were onAs humans, we wake up every day and make choices that affect each and every aspect of our lives. We develop routines, we explore new activities, and at the end of the day, we always try to do what is best for us. But do we always succeed at this process?Carol Dweck breaks down this concept into two parts. Fixed or growth. These are two mindsets we can choose to live by each day. This new way of life we have been living for a year has many of us in a personal or emotional rut. I, like many others, have probably let myself sink into a fixed mindset.And that is ok! 2020 and now 2021 have been challenging to say the least. This past year has tested human biology, psychology, and will-power more than most years would.Let us take this episode as a way to push ourselves to get back to where we want to be, a growth mindset.Follow For MoreFollow along for updates through the newsletter and social media channels for updates and more content!Newsletter:The In-Between NewsletterInstagram PageThe In-Between Instagram PageMy Twitter Account@griffin_prock Get full access to The In-Between Newsletter at inbetweennewsletter.substack.com/subscribe

GEORGE: And welcome. I'm stoked because today is the hundredth episode. It's episode 99, but I dropped an episode 000. So it is the 100th episode. And I am here with the guy that wraps everything in business in bacon he wraps everything in bacon, in his business, including me, his friendships, his wife, and everything in between. But we have my friend Brad Constanzo here, who I've actually known of. Ooh, maybe like nine years. Cause he's known my wife longer than I've known my wife. Andso I've been being told about him since I was the bacon master uncivilized caveman, but yeah. He is like one of my dear friends. We talk often daily and live in the world of business and marketing and mindset and growth and all the things as you guys say, when it comes to business and helping companies build or scale their business. He's a Renaissance man. When it comes to this, he's been involved in absolutely everything. He has a podcast man behind some of the biggest. Information marketing company has been behind billionaires and everything alike. And literally just has an unlimited toolbox of tools to grab when he needs it consistently blows my mind. This is about a thousand times better than me at documenting things, which makes him a lot more effective because I just pull it out of my butt. It sticks to the wall. He documents it, uses it again. And I'm like, can you please send me a copy? So today I have my friend, Brad Costanzo, Brad. Good to be here, man.BRAD: Yeah. So sometimes I pull it out of my butt too. You just can't tell that's where I document it.GEORGE: Yeah. But at least when you, when you pull it out of your butt, I feel like you pull it out and then you document it before you send it. So it looks way more put together. Then I'm just like, I'll record another video for you. Hold on. I'll text that to you later. I'll send you an audio message. And I was like, man, I really got to get efficient with this. BRAD: There's a degree of truth to that. By the way, I was very, I was very impressed. You said I'm stoked to be here. You didn't say I'm super excited, which I think is neat. Which is the most overused video or podcast intro of anybody. I'm just, Hey guys, I'm super excited to be here with, and I was very excited that you said stoked. GEORGE: I think I did that because I heard myself the other day say super excited again. And I listened and consumed so much in a bet on so many interviews and interviewed. They're always like, and we're super excited to have George. And I was like, I got to do something different. And I think, I think last podcast I had I was supercalifragilistic excited. But I wasn't there today. My Marshall Mathers skills are not there on the first interview of the day, but they're going to get there. So I am stoked. So everybody listening I when I say this, Brad and I literally tax probably 40 times a day back and forth. Like we talk about everything, every business, every idea, every company we see doing it, right? Every hack and everything. And so I wanted to bring him on because he's a dear friend and. When I think about this, we have conversations that I think most entrepreneurs need to have. And we think about business, like most businesses need to be thinking about, and I'm always leaning in on Brad for his ideas and his feedback, his creative coffee, some copy, some of his ideas, which by the way, was stiletto coffee.And so we'll hear about all that stuff. And so Brad, I do have to kick it off with the same question I ask everybody, and then we can take the rails off of everything, but I would love your insight on this one. You've been in this game for a very, very long time. And so when you look back at this illustrious career of yours, what would you say was like one of the biggest lessons or the biggest mistakes that you made? Or you experienced and what have you taken from that moving forward that you utilize from this point on?BRAD: Nice, nice way to warm your guest up to a nice, with a nice, shallow, easy question.GEORGE: I told you the rails are off and you can buy time with that one. BRAD: Yeah biggest lesson, you know, or well, biggest lesson and biggest mistake are usually pretty related, but not always. You know, I think. If I was to say my biggest lesson and mistake, it's something I've been thinking about more recently and been more cognizant of it is you know, when I first got into the world of digital marketing, it was a result of I I'd read Tim Ferriss's four hour workweek, and there was a million things in that book, which, you know, takeaways one of themyou know, was that the idea of outsourcing and delegation. And it was one of those things that I was like, this is amazing. I'm totally gonna do this. And I didn't. And I ended up just learning everything myself. It became, I became very proficient at technology at doing a little bit of everything and becoming a real Jack of all trades in a lot of areas. But I do know that it really held me back and it was, it's helped me in some areas because I could, I didn't have to rely on somebody else to just do it. I could learn it quickly, figured out, just burn the midnight oil and get it done. But then I, when I look back at things I'm like I could have just easily paid somebody to do that for me.And I'll never forget, for instance, when I was talking to a good buddy of mine named Nate who is in the he was in the business and business partner. We're doing like, I don't know, five or $6 million a year. And they'd been doing this for several years and he called me up. He goes, Hey, I got a question is Aweber, a shopping cart or an autoresponder. And I go, you gotta be shitting me. I just flew on this guy's private jet. Or it was a private jet. No, like you don't know the difference. And here I was going like, I I was doing okay, but I wasn't doing this. This is a long time ago. And I'm like, that was a real moment of Holy crap.He goes, yeah, no, my team doesn't let me, I don't have a login for our, Aweber system. So I don't know what it is. I just know that it's a way we communicate with our list or something. So I'll never forget them. I remember where I was when I heard that thing. And, you know what you would think I would have learn the lesson right then and there, but I didn't. And I continued and I still do to this day doing stuff myself, rolling up my sleeves and figuring it out. And it is. One of my biggest mistakes. It's a lesson I have to keep on learning and relearning and relearning, but it's become much more cognizant. Now. I think it's become more cognizant now because I just finished Ben Hardy and Dan Sullivan's book, not how, but it was one of those things that really shine the light on it was like, I keep on getting bitch slapped across the face with a lesson that I know, and I've done this to some degree, but just nowhere near as much as I need to. And I think that's really become my theme this year more than anything is I continue to have, like delegation is the number one delegation and leadership at the two number one skill sets that I believe that are underdeveloped for myself and I'm trying to develop more. GEORGE: Yeah, I think that's actually some actually, I think it's funny because you and I probably feed each other with this one because we both do it. We're like, Oh, we got to figure it out. Let's go figure it out and then we'll know what to do. And then we're like, Oh, we got to delegate it.But by that point, we're so endowed of like, we can do it faster. We can do it more effectively. Oh. And like, we talk about this, like the amount of ideas I've run by you. And you're like, why don't you just have somebody do it? Or then you're like, what about this? I'm like, Oh, You know, outsource that one, but I think it's a really important topic. So I love it.BRAD: I'm a quick start. And I'm very impatient and you know, a real quick exam example, there was a Shopify thing they're like, okay, well we need this app installed correctly and I'm not a coder or whatnot, but they're like, yeah, that'll take three to five business days. And I'm sitting here going, I can't. Like the, the burn of me going, like, I cannot wait three to five business days for you to like install something like, or the instructions they're just give them to me. And I was looking at them. I'm like, I can do this by God. I can do I, and I appealed myself away. I go, Nope, I'm just going to wait. And that honestly, that was painful to wait GEORGE: Well, that's happened. That's happened to me a ton too. I mean, that was probably my biggest downfall in caveman was the fact that. I didn't have like this business influence of people. I had this, I have to survive and figure this out on my own. And it took maybe five years of me running that business for years before I even met any other people in the business or new internet marketing lived outside of what I was doing. And so the amount of times I brought my website down, the amount of times I broke stuff, the amount of times I've made mistakes that took like 18 weeks to figure out that like, Oh, I haven't had an email up in 18 weeks cause the form's been broken and 300 people a day were trying, like it had real world implications, you know?And that's, that's something that, you know, it's funny as your friend that happened, we just finished, you saw the webinar, but we just finished a launch and you and I are the same cause I'm a quick start to and patients is that one thread. And I think it's the thread that's weaved between, you know, delegation but leadership, because that, that whole thing is really understanding the big picture and playing the game. But I remember they were sending me some stuff and I was like, Oh, I don't like it. And I went to go change it. And I don't have logins and passwords anymore. And I only have a team if I have a team of three and they're amazing, but they're like, Nope, Nope, Nope. And so I have to funnel everything to Slack and it was, but then once I got over that hump of like, Oh, I can't like, I can't get into it. I can't fix it. I felt a thousand times better on the other side, like literally being like, Oh, it's out of my hands. And so I'm like, I'm going to go work out for an hour. And then I came back and it was fixed and somehow, you know, it magically happenedbut when you, when you think about that, like how do you define the line?Like, cause this is what I'll say about you, Brad, again, like what I love about you is you and I can dive down any rabbit hole and have deep levels of understanding and knowledge from an awareness perspective. And. What I love about that for me, like, I use it as a gift and you have the same one is we can look at a challenge or a problem, and then we can see it, but we can also pull ourselves up and see all the other things that are affecting that challenge by having that understanding.And so one of the things I struggle with is where do I put my focus on getting that level of understanding and where do I put it of like, Oh, I just really need to keep that outsourced all the way, because I've lived in this. I need to understand it so I can outsource it or utilize it or show a better, but like, how do you navigate that.BRAD: Well, that's happened. That's happened to me a ton too. I mean, that was probably my biggest downfall in caveman was the fact that. I didn't have like this business influence of people. I had this, I have to survive and figure this out on my own. And it took maybe five years of me running that business for years before I even met any other people in the business or new internet marketing lived outside of what I was doing. And so the amount of times I brought my website down, the amount of times I broke stuff, the amount of times I've made mistakes that took like 18 weeks to figure out that like, Oh, I haven't had an email up in 18 weeks cause the form's been broken and 300 people a day were trying, like it had real world implications, you know?And that's, that's something that, you know, it's funny as your friend that happened, we just finished, you saw the webinar, but we just finished a launch and you and I are the same cause I'm a quick start to and patients is that one thread. And I think it's the thread that's weaved between, you know, delegation but leadership, because that, that whole thing is really understanding the big picture and playing the game. But I remember they were sending me some stuff and I was like, Oh, I don't like it. And I went to go change it. And I don't have logins and passwords anymore. And I only have a team if I have a team of three and they're amazing, but they're like, Nope, Nope, Nope. And so I have to funnel everything to Slack and it was, but then once I got over that hump of like, Oh, I can't like, I can't get into it. I can't fix it. I felt a thousand times better on the other side, like literally being like, Oh, it's out of my hands. And so I'm like, I'm going to go work out for an hour. And then I came back and it was fixed and somehow, you know, it magically happenedbut when you, when you think about that, like how do you define the line?Like, cause this is what I'll say about you, Brad, again, like what I love about you is you and I can dive down any rabbit hole and have deep levels of understanding and knowledge from an awareness perspective. And. What I love about that for me, like, I use it as a gift and you have the same one is we can look at a challenge or a problem, and then we can see it, but we can also pull ourselves up and see all the other things that are affecting that challenge by having that understanding.And so one of the things I struggle with is where do I put my focus on getting that level of understanding and where do I put it of like, Oh, I just really need to keep that outsourced all the way, because I've lived in this. I need to understand it so I can outsource it or utilize it or show a better, but like, how do you navigate GEORGE: Yeah. Yeah. And I think, I think to 80% is where results live for our customers too. Cause I feel like what happens for me? I mean, you and I have had this, we've worked with, we've had some shared client experiences lately that we laugh about. But you know, I find that like that 80% is typically feels like 120% for the client.It only feels like 80% of the backend. And so, but I have that thing as well, and I felt wrong. This is extremely validating. It's funny. We haven't talked about this, like over our coffee or beach Hangouts or long strolls on the beach and by the way, For everybody listening, Brad and I really do go on long walks on the beach together.It is a fact and a deal. If you're listening, we'll have to do a three-way walk one of these times visiting again but it is extremely valid. Cause Brad what'll happen to me is like, I'll have this idea, right? Like somebody will come to me with a challenge or a problem or be like, how should we sell this?What should this look like? What should the hook be? And my brain is thinking about all these possible solutions and they want an answer, but I literally am like. I kinda need some time to like, get my hands in it and build it. Like I know in theory what it, what it should feel like and look like. And I don't, I don't know if it's not a skill set or maybe it's a part of my process. I need to take that and then literally go put my hands to work per se, to then help clear up the picture of like what I could tell them to do or what I could guide my team. Hondo and I don't, I've never met anybody else like that. Cause I've met the, you need to delegate it or you need to outsource it.And I was like, but I think for me, the art of building it is actually where I get the clarity on what it should look like. And so for me, I've been looking at that of like, When I do that, like understanding like, okay, I'm going to do this. Like I like right now, my team and I are building this, do content dissemination strategy. Like that's really effective and really done. And they're like, and I can spit where they're like, what should it look like? They're asking me all these questions. I'm giving him and answer. Like, I'm still confused them. Like, cause I haven't built it yet. I was like, just give me a day. And I sat down on my iPad and I was like, okay, this and this and this and this.And I sent it to them and they're like, okay. I'm like, yeah, go build that. But I think what I'm doing now is like giving myself a container that like, I can build to create clarity, but not a result. That's kind of like where my razors edges, like I ride a unicycle down the middle. And so it was just really validating, hearing.Hearing this cause I look at you and what I love about you is like, I would think of you, like if I was to reference you to somebody else, if somebody asked me about you the other day I think it was Alex, Alex asked me and he's like, so how would you describe Brad? BRAD: I'm talking to Alex after this call, by the way.GEORGE: Perfect. Well tell him, I said, hi. Hi Alex. I know you listened to this. Love you brother. But I was telling Alex, like, how would you describe him? And I like pause for a minute. And like, I had to go into my arsenal and I was like, Well, Brad is like me, but not like me. He's a Renaissance man. That gets big picture all the way down to the details required to make it happen. And he's a walking encyclopedia of knowledge. BRAD: they call me Brad PediaGEORGE: like seriously, like for those of you that are listening, like, I hope you get to share coffee with Brad one day or Brad and I, or come to an event. That he's at and speaking out with me because you're the only person I know that like we'll be sitting there.We'll have like a four minute conversation and not only. Do you converse, but you converse with reference material off the top of your brain, and then you follow up with it by like sending a book, like we'll leave in an hour later. But I was like, Oh, remember we talked about this from Dan Sullivan's book at 80%. Here's my notes in Evernote on this. And by the way, like you should take this and apply this into your business. BRAD: I've already made two book recommendationsGEORGE: We're only 16 minutes in and there's two and I, I just started who not how so? I'm actually really excited about that one. Cause I loved Ben's work.BRAD: I'll send you my notes in Rome. GEORGE: Yes, I'm here too. I was in Rome. And so the reason I'm asking that too is because when, when I look at you, you have this. I don't want to call Jacqueline high, but we have these two containers that you and I live in. Right. Container one is like, we create, we go create ideas, solutions, solve problems, do client work.But then the other side is we have this kind of consume where we, you know, get in knowledge and. You know, expand our research and deepen our reference material. Right. So when you look at your day, and this is something I've not talked about on the podcast a lot, but something that I've been really leaning into, when you look at your life, like if you were to percentage it out of like consumption versus creation, like where do you put that?And then why do you. You know, consume like you do and take the notes that you do, because like you've inspired me massively. Like I'm using Rome research, it started with WorkFlow like, I now read an article. I make a note about the article to put it into my PKM and things like that. But I would kind of love to hear your thoughts and your process on this, because it really makes you extremely valuable. And it's almost like you're just at the center hub of either you have the answer in your brain or you have this catalog to go into. And for me, The reason I'm asking is because one of the struggles I have as an entrepreneur is the FOMO of like, I read something and I'm going to forget it. I thought about something and I'm going to want to implement it.And it like stays open in my brain unless I get it down. And I'm using your PKM system, but I think you're one of the best in the world that I've ever seen at this. So I would kind of love your thoughts as how you balance that and how you do thatBRAD: So one of the first questions I think you asked is the how I bounce, like consumption versus. Production and creation.I consume way more than I can create to my much to my chagrin. I need to do, I love creating and I like to do more, much more so, but I'm just more, it's more natural to just jump into consumption mode because I can learn, I can learn and digest things quickly. And I'm really good at like, I've got that down.Like I've got that cadence down. I canand I'll explain that in a second, but. But I need to do more creation because I, you know, if you just consume for the act of consumption and, you know, hold it back without putting it back out there enough, you're not really adding value to the world. You're just like, almost like miserly collecting money, but never spending it or investing it.So that is one of the things that I've, I tried to do more so of his creation, but I mean, what I do when it comes to seeking out information, I want to learn, I guess, you know, I guess there's, and I'll give an example here.,there are certain things I will do to go say, okay, I need to know something about X.I'm going to go search it out and then there's the other one, which is, I just stumbled across information. Maybe I subscribed to a newsletter or two or go to a blog that I go to once in a while and I find something and I just go kind of deep down that rabbit hole and I click the links and I follow the trails and I just see where it takes me. Or I stumbled across a book that kind of peaks my interest and Iget into the book and then that book will maybe either bring up other ideas or articles or things like that.And I'll kind of follow that rabbit trail. I'll just follow my curiosity, which I have intense intellectual curiosity of. And with that. I mean, I don't know, it's random, I'll stumble across something. And I love that by the way, as I love stumbling across something that I'm like, Oh my God, Holy crap. My mind just blew. This is totally new. That's that idea of discussion. Something like hidden treasure, whether it's an article or a video or something like that is one of my favorite things. And I try to bake that into my marketing which remind me, I'm going to make a note to circle back because I think it's a really powerful marketing strategy is the concept of discovery. So I'm just making a note to come back. GEORGE: That's why it's one of the steps in the customer journey BRAD: So the other side is when I want to, when I, when I specifically want to learn something about something else. So for instance, this is a, this is a. This is a trick. I don't tell a lot of people because it makes me look like I'm magic, but my God, that's so smart.Where did you come up with that? So if I'm working with a client for instance, and they are Well, actually, I'll do this. You know, we mentioned a stiletto coffee. I had a coffee business failed coffee business, but not withstanding, but they asked that GEORGE: the assets weren't a failure. Cause I love, I love watching all the stuff you create.BRAD: It was cool. The economics just weren't working out and the opportunity cost was hard. But when I started off doing this, I didn't know anything about it. And the very first thing I did was I typed in like coffee brand inn Google plus marketing case study. Any product niche or whatever you're doing, type that in, and then add a modifier plus marketing case study.You would be blown away by the kind of information you can find because there's everybody from universities to big brands, to whatnot, doing case studies on the, you know, what a, a brand did or a company did to go from zero to hero. It's a zero to hero story. Rags to riches, especially with companies is one of the types of stories that people love telling and people love reading about.And they're out there. I've got a friend of mine who has a sex toy business. And he was asking me for some ideas the other day about man, how do I market sex toys effect? I just don't know. And I was like, let me think about that. And I'll get back to you. Some ideas I literally went to the web and I just liked it like sex toy plus marketing case study.And I found a bunch of them and I sent them an article with a bunch of ideas. He's like, man, this is brilliant. Like how do you build these things? Google university. So that's an idea, or that's an example of having a very specific thing in mind to go, okay. What do I need to know? Has somebody else done this? Who else like great reference back to the book who not, how, who else has already done this work for me that I don't have to reinvent the wheel. And I love marketing case studies because they actually lay out exactly what you need to know. This is how they got their first customers. This is how they got traffic. This is how they scaled. These are the problems they ran into. So that is a funds secret weapon that all your listeners and viewers should just do. Take your business. And take the industry or the product type or whatever, whatever it is, and then type in Mark plus marketing case study.The other things I do when I'm, when I'm trying toremember information or things that I learn, I, I just. Try to do what I think Tiago forte call. Who's a thought leader in the space of personal knowledge management calls, progressive summarization. I try to look for something I highlight. I use a tool to highlight andlike a webpage, for instance, w it's like you're highlighting in a Kindle book.And I'm looking for the things that I might want to reference back to later on, because those are the things that are gonna give you the context for what. Your reading is about, and then I will copy those. Like I might read an article and just have three or four highlights. That's fine. I may have 50 and then I'm going to copy those over into. You a tool you can use Evernote, I'm using ROHMGEORGE: what do you use to highlight on the browser?BRAD: If you're using ROHM, actually, you don't even need Rome for this, but it's awesome. It's called ROHM, R O H M highlighter. It's a Chrome or brave plugin it's free and it allows you to, It allows you to copy something. Yep. Andand that's like, every time I highlight, I'm just highlighting things and the highlights stays and then you click a button at the bottom of it. This has copy all highlights. And then when you paste it into whatever note taker you're using, it pulls in the title of the article URL and then bullet points on it. So it's just like highlight, highlight, highlight, highlight, copy, and then paste where I want it. And then what I'll do is I'll go through those, those highlights and I'll look for like, this is the progressive summarization. I'll look for the biggest ideas because I don't care if you're reading a book, an article or whatever, no matter how good it is. I don't even think we retain 20% unless it's a very short article.If you, if you walk away with. 5% of the big ideas. Congratulations. But then, so what I'll try to do is get what are the few biggest, biggest ideas from that and for instance, using the example of that book, who not, how so I highlighted the hell out of it through Kindle. I exported those highlights into ROHM, which is also easy to do. But that's not what we're going to talk about now, Google. And then what I did is I went through and I looked for of those passages in there. I looked for the most poignant ones and I highlighted them again, or I bolded them or I pulled them out and I'm like, all right. If I just remember these three things, if nothing else out of this entire thing, this is what I want to focus on. And it's a vote, the process of doing that. Integrated deeper in your mind, even though I'm looking only looking for a few things, it reminds me, I never thought about this until right now, it reminds me back when I was in high grade school and high school, I was eight. I would have been a cheater. I had full intent to cheat my ass off, but. The act of trying to cheat, made me learn it. For instance, I would create these really small writing little crib note sheets, like cheat sheets that I could put like in my pants leg or something. So it, I was going to go into class, I'd have all the answers. And I went into many classes with the cheat sheet, stuck in my shirt pocket or something like that. And I never had to pull it out because the process of building the cheat sheet caused me to learn it. So if I wanted to cheat, I was like, I didn't have to, it was cheating.GEORGE: So I, I love this. I opened three loops in the question.They've all been closed, but I think one thing two sides of this, and I think this is really important, especially going back to the opening of this, where like you talk about like your two threads that you're working on being delegation and leadership development. Right. I think this ties into a perfectly, when you think about consumption, you talked about intentional consumption or accidental consumption, but I think what is so powerful about both of them is that they both have a really tight container on them.If it's intentional, it's a, I'm going to find something. So you go, you find it, then you're complete and you implement it or you note take it. But then when it's accidental, you don't find it. Get the dopamine hit of it. You find it. And then you summarize it and you put it into something so that you can integrate it. You use your, and for those that, when we say PKM it's personal knowledge management, it's just basically how you take notes or how you access your own information or things like that. I Brad's way more versed in it than I am. He just teaches me what to do and I follow what he says. but then the accidental side is like, okay, if I'm going to consume that's right.I come across this article, making sure I don't just read it, but I read it. And then I take. Contextually or something that resonates with me so I can remember it and apply to my business. Then you file that away somewhere like a note system or an Evernote or something along those lines for reference.BRAD: Yup. Yeah, exactly. The goal, which is what I particularly love about ROHM, but the goal is not to have to file it away in something like, okay, I need to remember that this goes in this file folder or category or whatever the goal is to either use certain keywords or context when you're taking notes. And it doesn't even have to be much like if I'm wrong. If I read an article about copywriting and I save it over here, all I have to do is put the word copywriting or sometimes a hashtag copywriting on the notes, because then I can go back. To my notes. It's like, man, I remember what was that thing about copywriting?I just type in copywriting or I click on the hashtag and it'll pull it up. I can kind of scan. I go, Oh, that's where it is. Yeah. So I always just think of, I don'tI'm very unorganized when it comes to taking notes when I like to categorize them and things like that but because I'm so methodical about like keeping the right notes and making sure that there's context behind it, when I need to go find it, it's easy to find.I just type in the keyword or two that I'm looking forand you know, the, the loop I didn't close and I wrote down here is discovery. So I love that it's it is one of the things that humans love the Most like, we absolutely love it. We love going on treasure hunts. We love you know, just going to explore it's something built into our DNA. It's why we are explorers. Why we explore the West when the settlers came here, et cetera, we love discovering new things because there's that dopamine hit, I guess it's a dopamine hit of novelty. Like, wow, this is so cool. A lot of times we don't bake that into our marketing and our business in letting our, instead of shoving our product down our customer's throats, I was like, check out what this is like, I'm just sticking it in front of your face. I've found that some of the best Mark and I'm trying to think of some really good examples is when you discover something and it almost feels as like your. Discovery almost like a lot of people love discovering a new band, like an unheard of band that then catches fire. And even if I listened to a DJ or a band, I'm like, this is fire.This is amazing. I want to tell other people about it because I, I don't believe that everybody knows about this yet because I, if I discovered it, it means it was, it wasn't. In front of my face the whole time. And we love sharing discoveries with our friends. That's why things go viral. It's, there's a lot of that.So it's, I'm always trying to find a good, I don't even have a framework for this, but how can I let my, customers discover what I'm trying to sell them as opposed to for speed it. Now, sometimes that could be maybe an article that you're writing. Maybe this is like top of funnel material that you're writing about something else. And you, you may just briefly mention your product where the, your product is not the centralized focus of, of what you're writing, but you're allowing them to go, wait, wait. What's that? Yeah. Almost, I actually think you can almost hide something just enough. It's almost like an Easter egg popping out that I, I see the color, but I only see part of it.People will pick up on that. We're trained to pick up on it. It's like, wait, let me re let me click on that and go check it out. Especially because if I'm not trying to force, feed it down your throat. It doesn't smell like an ad. And actually, this is one of the things that I'm working on right now with a model, right?Like there's a, a landing page template, like a native ad article. And you're no, you know what I'm talking about that I'm sure now, and this one, the way I've built it, the way they've done it and the way I built itto model that. Is at the top of the funnel article about a certain thing, it's not about the product. And then when they get to the product, you know, when they get through the article, it hammers home, this is the product you need. Go get it. It's very direct. I want to test out a version that just kind of mentions it you know, this product in a couple places, but doesn't hammer it home and see which one of them leads. Like how many of them catch it and follow that rabbit trail, like, Oh, wow. That's interesting. Tell me more about this. And it'll be, interesting marketing tests that I'm working.GEORGE: Yeah. Well, I think it's so important about that. Like, I actually want to pull this thread with you cause we can talk about this all day. This is fun stuff. So when we think about like marketing, right? So one book recommendation based on what you said, discovery for everybody listening. I recommend Jonah Berger. Like there's no tomorrow. Brad jumps on this one too, but the book contagious talks about why things catch on and why things go viral. And the reason we share discoveries because Brad and I probably text each other two to three new discoveries a day, like no joke. We were like brainstorming. Like how can we submit links to each other without him coming through our texts? And we're playing with some stuff right now. But, you know, I, and I don't want to sound like a broken record, but there's only one of five reasons people share things. They discover humor, credibility, social status, education, or controversy, that's it. Those are the only five, right? So if you discover something and you're like, Oh, my friends will think this is cool while their social status, if you discover something and it's helpful, my friends will use this. You get credibility for helping them. If it's like this new way to do marketing, you get the education points.Of course, if it's controversial, you do it. But what you said, I think is so powerful because I think Brad when we look at the state of marketing, you've been in this game just as long as I have, if not longer.I tend to see if there's two cases, there's a camp of like direct response, like hard sell, sell, sell, sell, sell, and then there's this camp of like value based content based, you know, longer journey.And everybody tends to swing to one of either sides instead of realizing that they both are required. Right. Because when you think about like that article that you're writing. And so just for everybody, You know, wondering like who we're talking about. It's like writing an article about benefits and then introducing a product, you know, passively or writing an article about the product and be like, just buy the product.They both belong in marketing, both of them, and they belong at different parts of the customer journey. And so when we think about this, like I love thinking about. Like, Oh yeah. Like if I understand a customer journey, that's not linear, it's not three days. Right. It's not like, step one, step two, step three, step four. It's a matter of them discovering, you know, when they're going to invest in, when they're having that pain point, when it resonates with them and they all are a part of the ecosystem. Right. And so when you say. By the way I would love to see this. I already know the answer to this test because it's going to be both.And I know the company as well. So, you know, we think about that. You know, a lot of terms people use is like top of funnel, middle of funnel, bottom of funnel. But really when you break that down, it's just like cold, warm, hot that's that's really level of awarenessBRAD: It's actually, when you break it down even further, it's, it's love, you know, the, the age old marketing formula, AIDA attention, interest, desire, and action. Those are levels of awareness and desire, right? GEORGE: well, and so the reason. I say that it's both for everybody. Cause like I'll help people go on the content side, right. Where it's almost like an Easter, like, Hey, we're going to help you. We're going to help you. And then you discover the link click through. Right. That works really well. It's amazing because it only gets the right customer at the right time to click through everybody else had a positive touchpoint, but then you get to a point where there are some people that will get the touch points and then they'll never click through, but they want the product. And then you have an article that they can see and read about like, no, no, this is why you need it. The product, like this is what it's going to do for you. And this is how it's going to help, you know, like literally now is the time to go. And so I say this because I see these two camps and it's almost like it's either direct response, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Or it's like this value based. And I think everybody has to realize that they belong in the same world and it's the customer journey above it, you know, that does that. BRAD: And that's the real nuance and art to it. And you got to test it out and some stuff, I mean, I don't even depend on it's like, you know, I I'm going to run this test and it may not work. It doesn't mean it, the concept doesn't work. It means the execution may not have worked, but one of my favorite quotes and I don't know who to attribute it to, but I've used for years is that marketing is nothing except guessing and testing. And guessing and I think I'm going to guess if it's going to work. I don't know. I think it will, but how many times have we guessed something at work? And it flops like, like this is going to hit a home run and it's, you know, it's crickets actually. GEORGE: That gives me a good question. When you, when you think about that. Cause that, that one, that's a good one. The amount of things that I've made seven figures on that I was like, this will never work. Like there is no way this will work is like mind-blowing. So like when you think back, like what was one of your like biggest surprises of like the guessing and testing where you're like, I can't believe this work. Like whip out the secrets. Like if it was painfully obvious or not painfully, obviously it was painful for you to share, like you ask your guests to do, BRAD: I'm trying to think if there was one of those where I'm like, how the hell did that work?I'll tell you, I'll tell you the one that I thought for sure would work. And it flopped It took a lot of work. It actually burned me out of an entire niche and I sold the business. So this is like shit, 10 years ago, maybe pushing 10 years ago. What I had, I had a product yeah. Long time ago in the dating advice niche. And it was selling magic tricks to the whole guy, all the guys selling pick-up artists. I was like, I'm gonna show you how to use magic tricks to throw that in your flirty game. That was the very first thing I ever started off with selling information on online and it was fun, but then I decided, okay, I'm going to create a product in for just strict dating advice. Cause I had this big list and I had all these affiliates and at the time there still is, you know, there's a million what do you call them? Virtual summits out there right now, right? Yeah. Familiar. Yeah. And for those who are not, which is probably nobody, who's not familiar with the virtual summit, it's, let's say I'm going to do 25 different interviews with different people about topics on marketing or in this case, dating. I've never liked them. I see no value in those things. Cause I don't want to sit through 25 interviews. I mean, there's podcasts out there right now. I can download them on demand. I don't want to sit through this and then buy them, et cetera. And there was, I don't have time to spend 25 hours. Rigso this is the problem I'm looking to solve.Now I said, but I have all these relationships and they have traffic and I want to do something that I think would be a better product and a better way to consume their advice, the, this expert guru level advice. And I never saw anything like this exist. So there's the problem. The solution was I'm going to interview 25 of the top dating experts in the world. And I'm going to ask them each 25 questions. Okay. And all of these questions are broken down into categories, such as like for example, what would be, you know, if you're a single guy it was all designed for guys. What is your best, uh, way to approach a woman? Like let's say, during the day outside of a bar.And then the second question is what would be your best advice to an approach? A woman. In a, in a bar nightclub environment. another question would be like, what would be the, you know, how do you keep a conversation? How do you keep a conversation going after the initial opening and what I did, these are 25 most commonly asked questions. And I was just like, I'm going to ask every single person, a very regimented set of questions so that everybody, all 25 people answered all 25 questions. Now in start, instead of giving you the full interview. What I did is I painstakingly hadan editor go through each one of them and break out all 25 little clips just of them answering. The question and right. Just the question. And then we built this matrix online, inside this membership area. And all you had to do was like, all right, here's 25 questions. Which question do you want to know the answer to right now? And I may want to go to the part where it says what's the best way to get a girl's phone number, something like that. I don't know that. I don't think that was the question, but you click on it and then you see a grid of all 25 gurus. And a little play button on their face and you just click it and I can go around to hear the two minute answer to each, each person's perspective on this little question, are you following me? You understand how this work? I'll tell you, I'll tell you the one that I thought for sure would work. And it flopped It took a lot of work.

And a little play button on their face and you just click it and I can go around to hear the two minute answer to each, each person's perspective on this little question, are you following me? You understand how this. BRAD: So that was one where I thought this is a brilliant product. Granted I still like the idea of the product. Maybe my marketing chops were not up maybe to snuff at the time. Maybe I just didn't know how to sell it. Maybe I was so burned out after having created this product before selling it that I didn't want to do it anymore, which is why I'm a big proponent these days of sell it first created after you validate it. There's a super long drawn out emotional story of me thinking this is going to be a great idea. And it flopped still little coffee was another one. I had a great brand, a great idea, a great hook, great graphics and everything else. And I just ignored the unit economics of how is it going to make this work? And I put blinders on and it, and I just couldn't, I couldn't do it. So best ideas be damned. It was a, you know, a failed venture.GEORGE: And for those of you wondering about coffee, I owned a coffee business as well. Um, I don't think there are effective unit economics and coffee companies. Quite frankly, we figured it out, but yeah, that's a, that's a good one. That's a good one. So I'm gonnaI'm going to take back to something you said earlier because you opened a loop and I found a solution to that. BRAD: Who was that? GEORGE: So the quote marketing is nothing by guessing and testing. Do you want, do you want to know why it was set on your podcast? BRAD: Well, but by me or somebody else?GEORGE: Nope. By ToddBRAD: Todd who? Todd Brown, Todd Brown saidGEORGE: Todd Brown said that on your podcast, I went to the good old Google. I couldn't do it with just the quote. I had to put it in quotations. And then you code up, uh, as the first two results. It's not easy. You have to get the guts to go on the rollercoaster ride. I've heard many people say marketing is nothing but guessing and testing. So he said it on your podcast. BRAD: Ah, good old Todd. GEORGE: Yup. Awesome. So when you, when you think about that, like I, so like my brain, when you were talking about like that dating on demand thing and that thing, I was like, that's a genius idea, but then my immediate brain went to, I've had a lot of experiences like that, where. I was like, this is it. This is what they want. This is what they want. And it never worked because I was reminded that that isn't what they wanted. That's what they said they wanted. But a lot of people, like I said this to somebody before I said, what's interesting is like, everyone's like, Oh, I love this keynote. I love these Ted talks. I love this, whatever. And I was like, but there's three takeaways. Right. I could give you all three takeaways in 35 seconds to 90 seconds. I was like, but these keynotes take an hour, but they're just delivering three takeaways. It's literally hook, story, takeaway, story, takeaway, story, takeaway, you know, close.And I was like that, that storytelling part. And even like that looping back into discovery part, I think is such a critical component because I think the ideas are always there and what I have found most of the time. Is when I was like, this is the best solution. Like, this is the best product. This is the best implementation. This is the best, everything. It's very logical because I'm like, here's the actual doing solution, but it's missing the feeling that they're looking for. And there's that disconnect in between them all. It happened to me numerous times. BRAD: Yeah. And you know, it also goes to show that sometimes like the very first product I ever built, I built a product that I would buy. If it existed, I was like, I'm building the solution to my own problem. And this one, I was doing the exact same thing. The first one worked the second one didn't. Doesn't mean the second one couldn't have worked. It absolutely could have worked, but it didn't. And it goes to show that yes, sometimes building a product that solves your own problem, is a great way to do it. And sometimes it's definitely not because not everybody wants that problem solved or not enough people want that problem solved. So you gotta, you know, you gotta kind of figure that out and do a little bit more research upfront. Which, if you're a quick start, that's hard to do. I have to slow myself down and go through a three-step process. That is been super critical for me that when I, when I skip it, I usually fail when I don't skip it. I usually succeed. And I'll touch on that. I know you, and I've talked about this, this Disney, uh, dream storming process GEORGE: when you, yeah. Yeah. You shared this with me. I use this all the time nowBRAD: It's so it was so important to my success, that it was a very first podcast episode. I did like six years agoand I learned it over a decade ago when I was studying NLP and they were, they were talking about this concept of howRobert Dilts, who is a, one of the pioneers of neuro-linguistic programming, went back and studied the strategies of all these geniuses throughout history.And one of them was Walt Disney. And when he found that what Walt did washe had separated out the. I guess the three internal, you could call them voices or States of mind whenever we are planning or a new project and it can be a business, it can be anything. And this was into the dreamer. I'll use Robert Delta's language, the dreamer, the realist and the critic. Or the spoiler, or this could be the dreamer, the, the do the planner and then the critic.And so what happens is that whenever we have an idea and especially if you go. If you've ever had a great idea of maybe it's a business idea and you got to share it with your spouse or your friend or co coworkers or colleagues or employees, you're like, Oh, I've got this great idea. Check this out. If you're like most people, the very first thing you're going to hear is why it won't work well. Yeah. But here's why that won't work because of this and blah, blah, blah. And I think naturally we go into that thing. We hear you. Okay. There's your idea. And we critique it because we're trying to actually protect you from screwing yourself up.But nobody likes that. We're like we hear it. And then you just basically pooped on our party and like, ah, man, it's no fun. The thing is we do it to ourselves and it's not just a critiquing. We'll have an idea like.For example, I want to create a coffee. I've got this idea for a coffee brand directed towards women, and it's going to be called stiletto coffee, and I can see the, the branding and then I go out, but, okay.So all I have to do is get some coffee roasters and design this stuff and Oh, but you know what, who's going to drink the coffee and people are going to buy it, this, that, and the other, right? Like, and we have this cacophony of sounds in our head of dreaming planning and critiquing all at the same time. And there are three totally separate voices and neither one of them wants to listen to the, each other. The dreamer doesn't want to listen to the planner. He sure as hell doesn't want to listen to the critic, telling them why it won't work. So what happens is one of two things, either we have what's called idea abortion, which is I got this great idea, but then that critic popped up. Whether it's you critiquing me as a friend or a partner, or it's me critiquing myself. And we got that probably won't work for this reason or that. And I just abort the idea before it's fully baked out,. Or we do what I did instill little coffee is I was so enamored with the dream and then the possible, and I could see the plan on how to get it done. I Stipe I shoved the sock in the critic's mouth and I said, I don't want to hear your unit economics margin, profit margin, like what if people don't buy subscription. How are you going to get people to enjoy the taste of a coffee? They've never tried and buy it online, blah, blah, blah.I just ignored it. And I said to myself, what a lot of entrepreneurs do is I'll just figure it out as, you know as they come. Sometimes you can't solve those problems as they come. And it's not until you realize that, like for instance, net critic has a very specific role and it's not the rain on the parade. It's to make sure that you overcome that you're actually cognizant of the hurdles and the challenges you're going to face. And you're like, all right, cool. These are what I'll face. Now here's the secret to this whole thing. Like understanding there's the mindset of the dreamer. There's the mindset of the planner. And there's the mindset of the of the critic. The key to it is when you're, when you're in dreaming mode, don't plan and don't critique, just dream. See it playing out before you, like it's on a movie screen, like it's happening. And here, you're only asking what if.What if, what if we do this? What if we do this? What if we do this now? Once you've got a, kind of a decent little dream in mind and a vision, if you would, you're going to step into the next frame of mind or think of it as the next office where there's maybe storyboards up and all you're going to do is plan out.Okay. Here's here's what let's plan out. How given. What I know about this, how do I, how would I do this? And there's only two rules in the planning or the realist office. And that's don't add new shit to the dream and don't critique it. Right. And then finally, once you've got a general vision or a dream, and then you've got a general plan. Now take it into this critics mindset. And this could be by yourself. This could be with your friends and partners or whatever, and you go, okay, let's poke holes. What are we missing? Like, why not? So it's like, what if, how and why not? Right. And now we go, okay, well, it's, it's going to cost X amount of money.Do we have that money? It's going to take these resources. There's an opportunity cost. If you do this, Brad, will you have time to do that? Would you also set as important? And you can guess the final rule when you're a critique knit, don't solve those problems. Don't plan them. Don't add them new dreams, just critique and let them flow. Because what happens is when you give each one of these internal voices, its own time on stage, if you would, or on its own time with the conch shell, you know, Lord of the flies reference, they get to, they, they get to be fully heard and go and validated and go, all right. Here we go. Now you've got, now you've got everything.The key then is if to making it all work is ideally the dreamer and the planner mindset. Whether it's you or your team, you go out and you fix and you find a solution for every one of the critics objections. And if you can't, maybe you don't do it. Maybe you're bored. But if you can and you take this thing back to the critic, the critic goes, yeah, I don't see anything wrong with this green light. Now you've got something that works.I didn't do this with stiletto coffee. Like I just put the blinders on and I was like, I'm going to ignore it. And it screwed me up. And these days I do this, not only with myself, but every single one of my clients, business partners, it's mandatory for them to know this,this three-part strategy because. And even Shane who, you know, my business partners is now, he'll be like, he'll be like, Hey, so I know you're in the dreamers office. Can we step into the critics office in a second? And I'm like, absolutely. Or he'll say, Hey, I'm just in the dreamers office, go with me on this. And what that tells me is that, Hey, we're just, we're thinking, what if right now don't jump into the, all the shit that could go wrong.We'll get there. And it's so productive by the way, do it with your spouse, like teach Lindsay, this, teach your wife, teach you know, husbands and boyfriends this because as entrepreneurs, which I think everybody listening to this is if you communicate like this, you're giving them a frame of reference for how you're thinking. Like, Hey, I got this wild idea. I'm in the dreamers office. Just go with it. And maybe it's like, Hey look, maybe we're going to move to a foreign country because our, the president we want didn't get elected. Right. Like how would we, where would we go? Like, just imagine what would be amazing if we did, like, would we go to Columbia? Would we go to France, Costa Rica, Costa Rica, where would we go? And then you just dream together. And then the next thing you go is like, okay, well, How would we do that? Or, you know, actually I'll give you another little key thinking tool here taken from the world of design thinking, which is one of the most powerful words that the top innovators use phrases, which is called, how might we, it's way more powerful than how do we, because how might we adds a degree of I don't know if it's possible, but how might, how might we do it?So for instance, you and I both have podcasts. They're not as popular as Joe Rogan's as is like, no podcast is as popular as Joe Rogan's and if you and I sat down and we go, Hey, all right, how do we create a podcast, the George and Brad show, or even your podcast, or my pockets? How do we overtake Joe Rogan's podcast and popularity?It's like, fuck, I have no clue. But if you and I brainstormed with this premise, how might we do it? Do you actually feel the shift in energy and creativity? Yeah, you go, okay. We probably couldn't, but if we could, how might we do that? And now you just play it. It allows you to just come up with wackadoo ideas and one, while that it works.So anyway, yeah. Like how might, well, if we did move to Costa Rica, how might we do that? Well, Could we, would we sell where we're living or would we just rent it out? I don't know. How long would we have to stay there and you start doing that, then you go into the wall. Well, why not? Well, Costa Rica has got mosquitoes and I don't like mosquitoes.Like, you know, I don't know you come up with stuff like, but anyway, I, I can talk for days. I did my entire first episode on this, but it's real simple dream and plan critique. Don't do it and only do them one at a time and make sure the person you're working with or living with knows. What you're doing. And it'll avoid a hell of a lot of conflict. GEORGE: Well, there's so much, so much in there and like, I just want to summarize it so first, like it goes all the way back to the opening, the episode where we talked about patience, right. Because if you have an idea and you think it has to be done today, it's not a good idea. That's firefighting doesn't create sustainable results. And so what I love about this is that this gives you a container or a framework for taking what might feel like immediate, or might feel like urgent. And it gets you into this slowdown, right? Gets you into your parasympathetic state to really be like, okay, no, let me go through this.Let me. See, if we can do this, let me make sure this isn't costing us opportunity or costing us time. Right. And it allows you to fully bake it all. And the one thing that I will say is I am still working on this for my team, but I've been utilizing this. And the biggest thing for me is giving myself a gap between each office. So if I'm doing it on my own and I'm brainstorming, I have, I have to go dreamer and then be like, I have to go work out or take a couple calls or go walk and like schedule more time to come back and be a critic. BRAD: So, when I learned of this, it was in a work, it was actually a three-day workshop teaching two or three day workshop teaching just this. That was all, it was the Disney strategies of GE leadership workshop, right. Taught bio, to women in Dallas, Texas. What was brilliant about it is when they did it, they go, okay, we're going to use, what's called in an LP, spatial anchoring. So you are going to be in this part, like you're just going to stand here when you're dreaming.And we would go through this with a partner. All right. You and you. You'd be standing up and the physiology was also important. So with standing up, I would kind of bounce on my toes and I get the energy moving and I look up and I imagine I'm watching it on a TV, like on a, on a movie screen. And when we were done about to move into the other move into the other frame of mind, we stepped out into what they call meta position, which is basically out. And we would say our phone number backwards in order to just cause it just causes you to get out of that thinking. And we go, okay, like, Nine four, three, two, one blah, blah, blah. And it's like, all right. I've kind of cleared the clear that out. Like defragged it. And now I'm going to step into the other one and then I'm gonna defrag it, say my phone number backwards.So it's the exact same thing you have to give your, your mind the ability to change it up when I'm doing it at the house. Like I will I'll go for a walk when I'm in my dreamer mode. I'll come back to my office and sit on my computer and I'll map it out when I'm in realist and I'll go sit in my I've got a recliner over here and I'll go sit in the recliner where I usually read and think, and I'll go there to critique. So I, 100% change it up and need space in between.GEORGE: Yeah. Those, those state changes are, are massive for us. And for entrepreneurs, what I have figured out, like one of my biggest keys to success is space. Like just space, right? But in that also, and Benjamin Hardy actually talks about this in his first book, which is designing your environment.Oh, you're saying using the principles of like NLP to get you into the States. And so, you know, if you're in an office, you can do this with your colleagues in different places. If you're working remotely, do it on different calls, like play with these things of state. And being like, if your guys are going to do a dreamer meeting, like, you know, do some breath, work and play a fun uplifting song that like gets you childlike and then schedule another meeting.Even if you take a 10 minute break in between them, or if you're doing it on your own, make sure that you're giving yourself that space to clear and get back to neutral and get back to neutral. So you can embody this. And I was doing a podcast of the day, Brad wood Stefanos for a show we're going to launch, bu
My guest this episode is Bronx based poet, Don.

Onapsis is more than your typical application cybersecurity company. They are different because their solutions help eliminate the costs and risks preventing you from building better, smarter, and more dynamic applications faster and more securely. Gartner recently acknowledged the importance of mission-critical business applications by highlighting one of the security capabilities of the Onapsis platform. Upon hearing this, I felt compelled to find out more. They call themselves "The Tribe" in tribute to their Argentinean roots. But they take their name Onapsis from the Onas, an ancient, hardy, nomadic tribe indigenous to the Patagonian region of southern Argentina. Like the ancient Onas, they are proud people who work together as a team and rely on other members of The Tribe to help us succeed. Juan Pablo "JP" Perez-Etchegoyen, CTO of cybersecurity firm Onapsis joins me on Tech Talks Daily. He is responsible for the design, research and development of Onapsis' innovative software solutions, and helps manage the development of new products as well as the SAP cyber-security research that has garnered critical acclaim for the Onapsis Research Labs. He is regularly invited to speak and host trainings at global industry conferences including Blackhat, HackInTheBox, Troopers, and SAP TechEd/DCODE. Prior to joining Onapsis, Juan Pablo led many Information Security consultancy projects for Companies in Latin America, EE.UU. and Europe. His strongest experience is in the field of Penetration Testing, Web Application Testing, Vulnerabilities Research, Information Security Auditing's and Standards. JP discusses what enterprise practitioners need to know as they migrate business-critical applications to the cloud, including how traditional on-prem security tools fall short and who is responsible for protecting the applications before, during, and after migration. JP explains what vulnerabilities can be exploited if apps remain unprotected. As the founding member of the Cloud Security Alliance ERP Working Group, he also shares site key findings, and best practices from the organization's research.
In this episode of Business Matters, Roxanne Sexton with the Bean Team discusses the Paycheck Protection Program and more specifically, how to maximize the loan forgiveness provisions of the PPP. We outline and then discuss the 4 categories provided by the PPP to determine the amount of loan that will be forgiven. Of course, all of this is based on the guidelines issued through the time of the recording. PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM LOANS Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)The Small Business Administration (SBA), in consultation with the Department of the Treasury, intends to provide timely additional guidance to address borrower and lender questions concerning the implementation of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), established by section 1102 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act or the Act). This document will be updated on a regular basis.Borrowers and lenders may rely on the guidance provided in this document as SBA’s interpretation of the CARES Act and of the Paycheck Protection Program Interim Final Rules (“PPP Interim Final Rules”) (link). The U.S. government will not challenge lender PPP actions that conform to this guidance,1 and to the PPP Interim Final Rules and any subsequent rulemaking in effect at the time.Question: Paragraph 3.b.iii of the PPP Interim Final Rule states that lenders must “[c]onfirm the dollar amount of average monthly payroll costs for the preceding calendar year by reviewing the payroll documentation submitted with the borrower’s application.” Does that require the lender to replicate every borrower’s calculations? Answer: No. Providing an accurate calculation of payroll costs is the responsibility of the borrower, and the borrower attests to the accuracy of those calculations on the Borrower Application Form. Lenders are expected to perform a good faith review, in a reasonable time, of the borrower’s calculations and supporting documents concerning average monthly payroll cost. For example, minimal review of calculations based on a payroll report by a recognized third-party payroll processor would be reasonable. In addition, as the PPP Interim Final Rule indicates, lenders may rely on borrower representations, including with respect to amounts required to be excluded from payroll costs.If the lender identifies errors in the borrower’s calculation or material lack of substantiation in the borrower’s supporting documents, the lender should work with the borrower to remedy the issue.2 Question: Are small business concerns (as defined in section 3 of the Small Business Act, 15 U.S.C. 632) required to have 500 or fewer employees to be eligible borrowers in the PPP? Answer: No. Small business concerns can be eligible borrowers even if they have more than 500 employees, as long as they satisfy the existing statutory and regulatory definition of a “small business concern” under section 3 of the Small Business Act, 15 U.S.C. 632. A business can qualify if it meets the SBA employee-based or revenue-As of May 3, 2020based size standard corresponding to its primary industry. Go to www.sba.gov/size for the industry size standards.Additionally, a business can qualify for the Paycheck Protection Program as a small business concern if it met both tests in SBA’s “alternative size standard” as of March 27, 2020: (1) maximum tangible net worth of the business is not more than $15 million; and (2) the average net income after Federal income taxes (excluding any carry-over losses) of the business for the two full fiscal years before the date of the application is not more than $5 million.A business that qualifies as a small business concern under section 3 of the Small Business Act, 15 U.S.C. 632, may truthfully attest to its eligibility for PPP loans on the Borrower Application Form, unless otherwise ineligible.Question: Does my business have to qualify as a small business concern (as defined in section 3 of the Small Business Act, 15 U.S.C. 632) in order to participate in the PPP? Answer: No. In addition to small business concerns, a business is eligible for a PPP loan if the business has 500 or fewer employees whose principal place of residence is in the United States, or the business meets the SBA employee-based size standards for the industry in which it operates (if applicable). Similarly, PPP loans are also available for qualifying tax-exempt nonprofit organizations described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), tax-exempt veterans organization described in section 501(c)(19) of the IRC, and Tribal business concerns described in section 31(b)(2)(C) of the Small Business Act that have 500 or fewer employees whose principal place of residence is in the United States, or meet the SBA employee-based size standards for the industry in which they operate.Question: Are lenders required to make an independent determination regarding applicability of affiliation rules under 13 C.F.R. 121.301(f) to borrowers? Answer: No. It is the responsibility of the borrower to determine which entities (if any) are its affiliates and determine the employee headcount of the borrower and its affiliates. Lenders are permitted to rely on borrowers’ certifications.Question: Are borrowers required to apply SBA’s affiliation rules under 13 C.F.R. 121.301(f)? Answer: Yes. Borrowers must apply the affiliation rules set forth in SBA’s Interim Final Rule on Affiliation. A borrower must certify on the Borrower Application Form that the borrower is eligible to receive a PPP loan, and that certification means that the borrower is a small business concern as defined in section 3 of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 632), meets the applicable SBA employee-based or revenue-based size standard, or meets the tests in SBA’s alternative size standard, after applying the affiliation rules, if applicable. SBA’s existing affiliation exclusions apply to the PPP, including, for example the exclusions under 13 CFR 121.103(b)(2).As of May 3, 2020Question: The affiliation rule based on ownership (13 C.F.R. 121.301(f)(1)) states that SBA will deem a minority shareholder in a business to control the business if the shareholder has the right to prevent a quorum or otherwise block action by the board of directors or shareholders. If a minority shareholder irrevocably gives up those rights, is it still considered to be an affiliate of the business? Answer: No. If a minority shareholder in a business irrevocably waives or relinquishes any existing rights specified in 13 C.F.R. 121.301(f)(1), the minority shareholder would no longer be an affiliate of the business (assuming no other relationship that triggers the affiliation rules).Question: The CARES Act excludes from the definition of payroll costs any employee compensation in excess of an annual salary of $100,000. Does that exclusion apply to all employee benefits of monetary value? Answer: No. The exclusion of compensation in excess of $100,000 annually applies only to cash compensation, not to non-cash benefits, including:employer contributions to defined-benefit or defined-contribution retirement plans;payment for the provision of employee benefits consisting of group health care coverage, including insurance premiums; andpayment of state and local taxes assessed on compensation of employees. Question: Do PPP loans cover paid sick leave? Answer: Yes. PPP loans covers payroll costs, including costs for employee vacation, parental, family, medical, and sick leave. However, the CARES Act excludes qualified sick and family leave wages for which a credit is allowed under sections 7001 and 7003 of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (Public Law 116–127). Learn more about the Paid Sick Leave Refundable Credit here.Question: My small business is a seasonal business whose activity increases from April to June. Considering activity from that period would be a more accurate reflection of my business’s operations. However, my small business was not fully ramped up on February 15, 2020. Am I still eligible? Answer: In evaluating a borrower’s eligibility, a lender may consider whether a seasonal borrower was in operation on February 15, 2020 or for an 8-week period between February 15, 2019 and June 30, 2019.Question: What if an eligible borrower contracts with a third-party payer such as a payroll provider or a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) to process payroll and report payroll taxes? Answer: SBA recognizes that eligible borrowers that use PEOs or similar payroll providers are required under some state registration laws to report wage and other data onAs of May 3, 2020the Employer Identification Number (EIN) of the PEO or other payroll provider. In these cases, payroll documentation provided by the payroll provider that indicates the amount of wages and payroll taxes reported to the IRS by the payroll provider for the borrower’s employees will be considered acceptable PPP loan payroll documentation. Relevant information from a Schedule R (Form 941), Allocation Schedule for Aggregate Form 941 Filers, attached to the PEO’s or other payroll provider’s Form 941, Employer’s Quarterly Federal Tax Return, should be used if it is available; otherwise, the eligible borrower should obtain a statement from the payroll provider documenting the amount of wages and payroll taxes. In addition, employees of the eligible borrower will not be considered employees of the eligible borrower’s payroll provider or PEO.Question: May lenders accept signatures from a single individual who is authorized to sign on behalf of the borrower? Answer: Yes. However, the borrower should bear in mind that, as the Borrower Application Form indicates, only an authorized representative of the business seeking a loan may sign on behalf of the business. An individual’s signature as an “Authorized Representative of Applicant” is a representation to the lender and to the U.S. government that the signer is authorized to make the certifications, including with respect to the applicant and each owner of 20% or more of the applicant’s equity, contained in the Borrower Application Form. Lenders may rely on that representation and accept a single individual’s signature on that basis.Question: I need to request a loan to support my small business operations in light of current economic uncertainty. However, I pleaded guilty to a felony crime a very long time ago. Am I still eligible for the PPP? Answer: Yes. Businesses are only ineligible if an owner of 20 percent or more of the equity of the applicant is presently incarcerated, on probation, on parole; subject to an indictment, criminal information, arraignment, or other means by which formal criminal charges are brought in any jurisdiction; or, within the last five years, for any felony, has been convicted; pleaded guilty; pleaded nolo contendere; been placed on pretrial diversion; or been placed on any form of parole or probation (including probation before judgment).Question: Are lenders permitted to use their own online portals and an electronic form that they create to collect the same information and certifications as in the Borrower Application Form, in order to complete implementation of their online portals? Answer: Yes. Lenders may use their own online systems and a form they establish that asks for the same information (using the same language) as the Borrower Application Form. Lenders are still required to send the data to SBA using SBA’s interface.Question: What time period should borrowers use to determine their number of employees and payroll costs to calculate their maximum loan amounts? As of May 3, 2020Answer: In general, borrowers can calculate their aggregate payroll costs using data either from the previous 12 months or from calendar year 2019. For seasonal businesses, the applicant may use average monthly payroll for the period between February 15, 2019, or March 1, 2019, and June 30, 2019. An applicant that was not in business from February 15, 2019 to June 30, 2019 may use the average monthly payroll costs for the period January 1, 2020 through February 29, 2020.Borrowers may use their average employment over the same time periods to determine their number of employees, for the purposes of applying an employee-based size standard. Alternatively, borrowers may elect to use SBA’s usual calculation: the average number of employees per pay period in the 12 completed calendar months prior to the date of the loan application (or the average number of employees for each of the pay periods that the business has been operational, if it has not been operational for 12 months).Question: Should payments that an eligible borrower made to an independent contractor or sole proprietor be included in calculations of the eligible borrower’s payroll costs? Answer: No. Any amounts that an eligible borrower has paid to an independent contractor or sole proprietor should be excluded from the eligible business’s payroll costs. However, an independent contractor or sole proprietor will itself be eligible for a loan under the PPP, if it satisfies the applicable requirements.Question: How should a borrower account for federal taxes when determining its payroll costs for purposes of the maximum loan amount, allowable uses of a PPP loan, and the amount of a loan that may be forgiven? Answer: Under the Act, payroll costs are calculated on a gross basis without regard to (i.e., not including subtractions or additions based on) federal taxes imposed or withheld, such as the employee’s and employer’s share of Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) and income taxes required to be withheld from employees. As a result, payroll costs are not reduced by taxes imposed on an employee and required to be withheld by the employer, but payroll costs do not include the employer’s share of payroll tax. For example, an employee who earned $4,000 per month in gross wages, from which $500 in federal taxes was withheld, would count as $4,000 in payroll costs. The employee would receive $3,500, and $500 would be paid to the federal government. However, the employer-side federal payroll taxes imposed on the $4,000 in wages are excluded from payroll costs under the statute.33 The definition of “payroll costs” in the CARES Act, 15 U.S.C. 636(a)(36)(A)(viii), excludes “taxes imposed or withheld under chapters 21, 22, or 24 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 during the covered period,” defined as February 15, 2020, to June 30, 2020. As described above, the SBA interprets this statutory exclusion to mean that payroll costs are calculated on a gross basis, without subtracting federal taxes that are imposed on the employee or withheld from employee wages. Unlike employer-side payroll taxes, such employee-side taxes are ordinarily expressed as a reduction in employee take-home pay; their exclusion from the definition of payroll costs means payroll costs should not be reduced based on taxes imposed on the employee or withheld from employee wages. This interpretation is consistent with the text of the statute and advances the legislative purpose of ensuring workersAs of May 3, 2020remain paid and employed. Further, because the reference period for determining a borrower’s maximum loan amount will largely or entirely precede the period from February 15, 2020, to June 30, 2020, and the period during which borrowers will be subject to the restrictions on allowable uses of the loans may extend beyond that period, for purposes of the determination of allowable uses of loans and the amount of loan forgiveness, this statutory exclusion will apply with respect to such taxes imposed or withheld at any time, not only during such period.4 Questions 2 – 18 published April 6, 2020.5 Questions 19 – 20 published April 8, 2020.Question: I filed or approved a loan application based on the version of the PPP Interim Final Rule published on April 2, 2020. Do I need to take any action based on the updated guidance in these FAQs? Answer: No. Borrowers and lenders may rely on the laws, rules, and guidance available at the time of the relevant application. However, borrowers whose previously submitted loan applications have not yet been processed may revise their applications based on clarifications reflected in these FAQs.Question: Are PPP loans for existing customers considered new accounts for FinCEN Rule CDD purposes? Are lenders required to collect, certify, or verify beneficial ownership information in accordance with the rule requirements for existing customers? Answer: If the PPP loan is being made to an existing customer and the necessary information was previously verified, you do not need to re-verify the information. Furthermore, if federally insured depository institutions and federally insured credit unions eligible to participate in the PPP program have not yet collected beneficial ownership information on existing customers, such institutions do not need to collect and verify beneficial ownership information for those customers applying for new PPP loans, unless otherwise indicated by the lender’s risk-based approach to BSA compliance.4Question: Do lenders have to use a promissory note provided by SBA or may they use their own? Answer: Lenders may use their own promissory note or an SBA form of promissory note.Question: The amount of forgiveness of a PPP loan depends on the borrower’s payroll costs over an eight-week period; when does that eight-week period begin? Answer: The eight-week period begins on the date the lender makes the first disbursement of the PPP loan to the borrower. The lender must make the first disbursement of the loan no later than ten calendar days from the date of loan approval.5Question: Do lenders need a separate SBA Authorization document to issue PPP loans? Answer: No. A lender does not need a separate SBA Authorization for SBA to guarantee a PPP loan. However, lenders must have executed SBA Form 2484 (theAs of May 3, 2020to issue PPP loans and receive a loan number for each originated PPP loan. Lenders may include in their promissory notes for PPP loans any terms and conditions, including relating to amortization and disclosure, that are not inconsistent with Sections 1102 and 1106 of the CARES Act, the PPP Interim Final Rules and guidance, and SBA Form 2484.As of May 3, 2020Lender Application Form for the Paycheck Protection Program)6to issue PPP loans and receive a loan number for eachoriginated PPP loan. Lendersmay include in theirpromissory notes for PPP loans any terms and conditions, including relating to amortization and disclosure, that arenot inconsistent with Sections 1102 and 1106 of theCARES Act, the PPP Interim Final Rulesand guidance, and SBA Form 2484.22.Question: I am a non-bank lender that meets allapplicable criteria of the PPP InterimFinal Rule. Will I be automatically enrolledas a PPP lender? What criteria will SBAand theTreasuryDepartmentuse to assess whetherto approvemy application to participate as a PPP lender? Answer:We encourage lenders that arenot currently7(a) lenders to apply in order to increase the scope of PPP lending optionsand the speed with which PPP loanscan be disbursedtohelp small businesses across America.We recognize that financialtechnology solutionscan promote efficiency and financial inclusionin implementingthePPP. Applicants should submit SBA Form 3507 and the relevant attachments to NFRLApplicationForPPP@sba.gov.Submission of theSBA Form3507does notresult in automatic enrollmentin the PPP.SBA and the Treasury Department willevaluate each application from anon-bank or non-insured depository institution lenderand determine whetherthe applicant has the necessary qualifications to process, close,disburse, andservice PPP loans made with SBA’sguarantee. SBAmay requestadditionalinformation from the applicant beforemaking a determination.23.Question: How do the $10 million cap and affiliationruleswork for franchises? Answer:If a franchise brand islisted on the SBA Franchise Directory,each of itsfranchiseesthat meets the applicable size standardcan apply for a PPP loan. (Thefranchisor does not apply on behalf of its franchisees.)The $10 million cap on PPP loansis a limit perfranchisee entity,and each franchisee is limited to one PPP loan.Franchise brands that have been denied listing on the Directory because of affiliation between franchisor andfranchisee may request listing toreceive PPP loans.SBA willnot apply affiliation rules to afranchise brand requesting listing on the Directory to participatein the PPP, but SBA will confirm that the brandis otherwiseeligible for listing on the Directory.24.Question: How do the $10 million cap and affiliationruleswork for hotels and restaurants (and any business assigned a North American Industry Classification System(NAICS)code beginning with 72)? Answer:Under the CARES Act,any singlebusinessentitythat is assigned a NAICScode beginning with 72 (includinghotels andrestaurants) andthat employs not more than 500employees perphysicallocationiseligible to receive a PPPloan.6Thisrequirementissatisfiedbyalenderwhenthelendercompletesthe processofsubmitting aloan through the E-Transystem;notransmissionorretentionofaphysical copy of Form2484isrequired.As of May 3, 2020In addition, SBA’s affiliation rules (13 CFR 121.103 and 13 CFR 121.301) do not apply to any business entity that is assigned a NAICS code beginning with 72 and that employs not more than a total of 500 employees. As a result, if each hotel or restaurant location owned by a parent business is a separate legal business entity, each hotel or restaurant location that employs not more than 500 employees is permitted to apply for a separate PPP loan provided it uses its unique EIN.The $10 million maximum loan amount limitation applies to each eligible business entity, because individual business entities cannot apply for more than one loan. The following examples illustrate how these principles apply.Example 1. Company X directly owns multiple restaurants and has no affiliates.Company X may apply for a PPP loan if it employs 500 or fewer employees per location (including at its headquarters), even if the total number of employees employed across all locations is over 500. Example 2. Company X wholly owns Company Y and Company Z (as a result, Companies X, Y, and Z are all affiliates of one another). Company Y and Company Z each own a single restaurant with 500 or fewer employees.Company Y and Company Z can each apply for a separate PPP loan, because each has 500 or fewer employees. The affiliation rules do not apply, because Company Y and Company Z each has 500 or fewer employees and is in the food services business (with a NAICS code beginning with 72). Example 3. Company X wholly owns Company Y and Company Z (as a result, Companies X, Y, and Z are all affiliates of one another). Company Y owns a restaurant with 400 employees. Company Z is a construction company with 400 employees.Company Y is eligible for a PPP loan because it has 500 or fewer employees. The affiliation rules do not apply to Company Y, because it has 500 or fewer employees and is in the food services business (with a NAICS code beginning with 72).The waiver of the affiliation rules does not apply to Company Z, because Company Z is in the construction industry. Under SBA’s affiliation rules, 13 CFR 121.301(f)(1) and (3), Company Y and Company Z are affiliates of one another because they are under the common control of Company X, which wholly owns both companies. This means that the size of Company Z is determined by adding its employees to those of Companies X and Y. Therefore, Company Z is deemed to have more than 500 employees, together with its affiliates. However, Company Z may be eligible to receive a PPP loan as a small business concern if it, together with Companies X and Y, meets SBA’s other applicable size standards,” as explained in FAQ #2. Question: Does the information lenders are required to collect from PPP applicants regarding every owner who has a 20% or greater ownership stake in the applicant business (i.e., owner name, title, ownership %, TIN, and address) satisfy a lender’s obligation to collect beneficial ownership information (which has a 25% ownership threshold) under the Bank Secrecy Act? As of May 3, 2020Answer: For lenders with existing customers: With respect to collecting beneficial ownership information for owners holding a 20% or greater ownership interest, if the PPP loan is being made to an existing customer and the lender previously verified the necessary information, the lender does not need to re-verify the information. Furthermore, if federally insured depository institutions and federally insured credit unions eligible to participate in the PPP program have not yet collected such beneficial ownership information on existing customers, such institutions do not need to collect and verify beneficial ownership information for those customers applying for new PPP loans, unless otherwise indicated by the lender’s risk-based approach to Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) compliance.For lenders with new customers: For new customers, the lender’s collection of the following information from all natural persons with a 20% or greater ownership stake in the applicant business will be deemed to satisfy applicable BSA requirements and FinCEN regulations governing the collection of beneficial ownership information: owner name, title, ownership %, TIN, address, and date of birth. If any ownership interest of 20% or greater in the applicant business belongs to a business or other legal entity, lenders will need to collect appropriate beneficial ownership information for that entity. If you have questions about requirements related to beneficial ownership, go to https://www.fincen.gov/resources/statutes-and-regulations/cdd-final-rule. Decisions regarding further verification of beneficial ownership information collected from new customers should be made pursuant to the lender’s risk-based approach to BSA compliance.77 Questions 21 – 25 published April 13, 2020.Question: SBA regulations require approval by SBA’s Standards of Conduct Committee (SCC) for SBA Assistance, other than disaster assistance, to an entity, if its sole proprietor, partner, officer, director, or stockholder with a 10 percent or more interest is: a current SBA employee; a Member of Congress; an appointed official or employee of the legislative or judicial branch; a member or employee of an SBA Advisory Council or SCORE volunteer; or a household member of any of the preceding individuals. Do these entities need the approval of the SCC in order to be eligible for a PPP loan? Answer: The SCC has authorized a blanket approval for PPP loans to such entities so that further action by the SCC is not necessary in the PPP program.Question: SBA regulations require a written statement of no objection by the pertinent Department or military service before it provides any SBA Assistance, other than disaster loans, to an entity, if its sole proprietor, partner, officer, director, or stockholder with a 10 percent or more interest, or if a household member of any of the preceding individuals, is an employee of another Government Department or Agency having a grade of at least GS-13 or its equivalent. Does this requirement apply to PPP loans? As of May 3, 2020Answer: No. The SCC has determined that a written statement of no objection is not required from another Government Department or Agency for PPP loans.Question: Is a lender permitted to submit a PPP loan application to SBA through E-Tran before the lender has fulfilled its responsibility to review the required borrower documentation and calculation of payroll costs? Answer: No. Before a lender submits a PPP loan through E-Tran, the lender must have collected the information and certifications contained in the Borrower Application Form and the lender must have fulfilled its obligations set forth in paragraphs 3.b.(i)-(iii) of the PPP Interim Final Rule. Please refer to the Interim Final Rule and FAQ #1 for more information on the lender’s responsibility regarding confirmation of payroll costs.Lenders who did not understand that these steps are required before submission to E-Tran need not withdraw applications submitted to E-Tran before April 14, 2020, but must fulfill lender responsibilities with respect to those applications as soon as practicable and no later than loan closing.88 Questions 26 – 28 published April 14, 2020.9 Question 29 published April 15, 2020.10 Question 30 published April 17, 2020.Question: Can lenders use scanned copies of documents or E-signatures or E-consents permitted by the E-sign Act? Answer: Yes. All PPP lenders may accept scanned copies of signed loan applications and documents containing the information and certifications required by SBA Form 2483 and the promissory note used for the PPP loan. Additionally, lenders may also accept any form of E-consent or E-signature that complies with the requirements of the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (P.L. 106-229).If electronic signatures are not feasible, when obtaining a wet ink signature without in-person contact, lenders should take appropriate steps to ensure the proper party has executed the document.This guidance does not supersede signature requirements imposed by other applicable law, including by the lender’s primary federal regulator.9Question: Can a lender sell a PPP loan into the secondary market? Answer: Yes. A PPP loan may be sold into the secondary market at any time after the loan is fully disbursed. A secondary market sale of a PPP loan does not require SBA approval. A PPP loan sold into the secondary market is 100% SBA guaranteed. A PPP loan may be sold on the secondary market at a premium or a discount to par value.10As of May 3, 2020Question: Do businesses owned by large companies with adequate sources of liquidity to support the business’s ongoing operations qualify for a PPP loan? Answer: In addition to reviewing applicable affiliation rules to determine eligibility, all borrowers must assess their economic need for a PPP loan under the standard established by the CARES Act and the PPP regulations at the time of the loan application. Although the CARES Act suspends the ordinary requirement that borrowers must be unable to obtain credit elsewhere (as defined in section 3(h) of the Small Business Act), borrowers still must certify in good faith that their PPP loan request is necessary. Specifically, before submitting a PPP application, all borrowers should review carefully the required certification that “[c]urrent economic uncertainty makes this loan request necessary to support the ongoing operations of the Applicant.” Borrowers must make this certification in good faith, taking into account their current business activity and their ability to access other sources of liquidity sufficient to support their ongoing operations in a manner that is not significantly detrimental to the business. For example, it is unlikely that a public company with substantial market value and access to capital markets will be able to make the required certification in good faith, and such a company should be prepared to demonstrate to SBA, upon request, the basis for its certification.Lenders may rely on a borrower’s certification regarding the necessity of the loan request. Any borrower that applied for a PPP loan prior to the issuance of this guidance and repays the loan in full by May 7, 2020 will be deemed by SBA to have made the required certification in good faith.1111 Question 31 published April 23, 2020.Question: Does the cost of a housing stipend or allowance provided to an employee as part of compensation count toward payroll costs? Answer: Yes. Payroll costs includes all cash compensation paid to employees, subject to the $100,000 annual compensation per employee limitation.Question: Is there existing guidance to help PPP applicants and lenders determine whether an individual employee’s principal place of residence is in the United States? Answer: PPP applicants and lenders may consider IRS regulations (26 CFR § 1.121-1(b)(2)) when determining whether an individual employee’s principal place of residence is in the United States.Question: Are agricultural producers, farmers, and ranchers eligible for PPP loans? Answer: Yes. Agricultural producers, farmers, and ranchers are eligible for PPP loans if: (i) the business has 500 or fewer employees, or (ii) the business fits within the revenue-based sized standard, which is average annual receipts of $1 million.Additionally, agricultural producers, farmers, and ranchers can qualify for PPP loans as a small business concern if their business meets SBA’s “alternative size standard.” TheAs of May 3, 2020“alternative size standard” is currently: (1) maximum net worth of the business is not more than $15 million, and (2) the average net income after Federal income taxes (excluding any carry-over losses) of the business for the two full fiscal years before the date of the application is not more than $5 million.For all of these criteria, the applicant must include its affiliates in its calculations. Link to Applicable Affiliation Rules for the PPP.Question: Are agricultural and other forms of cooperatives eligible to receive PPP loans? Answer: As long as other PPP eligibility requirements are met, small agricultural cooperatives and other cooperatives may receive PPP loans.1212 Questions 32 – 35 published April 24, 2020.13 Questions 36 published April 26, 2020.14 Question 37 published April 28, 2020.Question: To determine borrower eligibility under the 500-employee or other applicable threshold established by the CARES Act, must a borrower count all employees or only full-time equivalent employees? Answer: For purposes of loan eligibility, the CARES Act defines the term employee to include “individuals employed on a full-time, part-time, or other basis.” A borrower must therefore calculate the total number of employees, including part-time employees, when determining their employee headcount for purposes of the eligibility threshold. For example, if a borrower has 200 full-time employees and 50 part-time employees each working 10 hours per week, the borrower has a total of 250 employees.By contrast, for purposes of loan forgiveness, the CARES Act uses the standard of “full-time equivalent employees” to determine the extent to which the loan forgiveness amount will be reduced in the event of workforce reductions.13Question: Do businesses owned by private companies with adequate sources of liquidity to support the business’s ongoing operations qualify for a PPP loan? Answer: See response to FAQ #31.14Question: Section 1102 of the CARES Act provides that PPP loans are available only to applicants that were “in operation on February 15, 2020.” Is a business that was in operation on February 15, 2020 but had a change in ownership after February 15, 2020 eligible for a PPP loan? Answer: Yes. As long as the business was in operation on February 15, 2020, if it meets the other eligibility criteria, the business is eligible to apply for a PPP loan regardless of the change in ownership. In addition, where there is a change in ownership effectuated through a purchase of substantially all assets of a business that was in operation onAs of May 3, 2020February 15, the business acquiring the assets will be eligible to apply for a PPP loan even if the change in ownership results in the assignment of a new tax ID number and even if the acquiring business was not in operation until after February 15, 2020. If the acquiring business has maintained the operations of the pre-sale business, the acquiring business may rely on the historic payroll costs and headcount of the pre-sale business for the purposes of its PPP application, except where the pre-sale business had applied for and received a PPP loan. The Administrator, in consultation with the Secretary, has determined that the requirement that a business “was in operation on February 15, 2020” should be applied based on the economic realities of the business’s operations.Question: Will SBA review individual PPP loan files? Answer: Yes. In FAQ #31, SBA reminded all borrowers of an important certification required to obtain a PPP loan. To further ensure PPP loans are limited to eligible borrowers in need, the SBA has decided, in consultation with the Department of the Treasury, that it will review all loans in excess of $2 million, in addition to other loans as appropriate, following the lender’s submission of the borrower’s loan forgiveness application. Additional guidance implementing this procedure will be forthcoming.The outcome of SBA’s review of loan files will not affect SBA’s guarantee of any loan for which the lender complied with the lender obligations set forth in paragraphs III.3.b(i)-(iii) of the Paycheck Protection Program Rule (April 2, 2020) and further explained in FAQ #1.1515 Questions 38 – 39 published April 29, 2020.Question: Will a borrower’s PPP loan forgiveness amount (pursuant to section 1106 of the CARES Act and SBA’s implementing rules and guidance) be reduced if the borrower laid off an employee, offered to rehire the same employee, but the employee declined the offer? Answer: No. As an exercise of the Administrator’s and the Secretary’s authority under Section 1106(d)(6) of the CARES Act to prescribe regulations granting de minimis exemptions from the Act’s limits on loan forgiveness, SBA and Treasury intend to issue an interim final rule excluding laid-off employees whom the borrower offered to rehire (for the same salary/wages and same number of hours) from the CARES Act’s loan forgiveness reduction calculation. The interim final rule will specify that, to qualify for this exception, the borrower must have made a good faith, written offer of rehire, and the employee’s rejection of that offer must be documented by the borrower. Employees and employers should be aware that employees who reject offers of re-employment may forfeit eligibility for continued unemployment compensation.Question: Can a seasonal employer that elects to use a 12-week period between May 1, 2019 and September 15, 2019 to calculate its maximum PPP loan amount under the interim final rule issued by Treasury on April 27, 2020, make all the required certifications on the Borrower Application Form? As of May 3, 2020Answer: Yes. The Borrower Application Form requires applicants to certify that “The Applicant is eligible to receive a loan under the rules in effect at the time this application is submitted that have been issued by the Small Business Administration (SBA) implementing the Paycheck Protection Program.” On April 27, 2020, Treasury issued an interim final rule allowing seasonal borrowers to use an alternative base period for purposes of calculating the loan amount for which they are eligible under the PPP. An applicant that is otherwise in compliance with applicable SBA requirements, and that complies with Treasury’s interim final rule on seasonal workers, will be deemed eligible for a PPP loan under SBA rules. Instead of following the instructions on page 3 of the Borrower Application Form for the time period for calculating average monthly payroll for seasonal businesses, an applicant may elect to use the time period in Treasury’s interim final rule on seasonal workers.Question: Do nonprofit hospitals exempt from taxation under section 115 of the Internal Revenue Code qualify as “nonprofit organizations” under section 1102 of the CARES Act? Answer: Section 1102 of the CARES Act defines the term “nonprofit organization” as “an organization that is described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and that is exempt from taxation under section 501(a) of such Code.” The Administrator, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, understands that nonprofit hospitals exempt from taxation under section 115 of the Internal Revenue Code are unique in that many such hospitals may meet the description set forth in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code to qualify for tax exemption under section 501(a), but have not sought to be recognized by the IRS as such because they are otherwise fully tax-exempt under a different provision of the Internal Revenue Code.Accordingly, the Administrator will treat a nonprofit hospital exempt from taxation under section 115 of the Internal Revenue Code as meeting the definition of “nonprofit organization” under section 1102 of the CARES Act if the hospital reasonably determines, in a written record maintained by the hospital, that it is an organization described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is therefore within a category of organization that is exempt from taxation under section 501(a).16 The hospital’s certification of eligibility on the Borrower Application Form cannot be made without this determination. This approach helps accomplish the statutory purpose of ensuring that a broad range of borrowers, including entities that are helping to lead the medical response to the ongoing pandemic, can benefit from the loans provided under the PPP.16 This determination need not account for the ancillary conditions set forth in section 501(r) of the Internal Revenue Code and elsewhere associated with securing the tax exemption under that section. Section 501(r) states that a hospital organization shall not be treated as described in section 501(c)(3) unless it meets certain community health and other requirements. However, section 1102 of the CARES Act defines the term “nonprofit organization” solely by reference to section 501(c)(3), and section 501(r) does not amend section 501(c)(3). Therefore, for purposes of the PPP, the requirements of section 501(r) do not apply to the determination of whether an organization is “described in section 501(c)(3).”As of May 3, 2020This guidance is solely for purposes of qualification as a “nonprofit organization” under section 1102 of the CARES Act and related purposes of the CARES Act, and does not have any consequences for federal tax law purposes. Nonprofit hospitals should also review all other applicable eligibility criteria, including the Interim Final Rules on Promissory Notes, Authorizations, Affiliation, and Eligibility (April 28, 2020) regarding an important limitation on ownership by state or local governments. 85 FR 23450, 23451.17

Perché no Aspettando Godot by Claudio LolliVivo tutti i miei giorni aspettando Godot, dormo tutte le notti aspettando Godot.Ho passato la vita ad aspettare Godot.Nacqui un giorno di marzo o d'aprile non so, mia madre che mi allatta è un ricordo che ho, ma credo che già in quel giorno però invece di poppare io aspettassi Godot.Nei prati verdi della mia infanzia, nei luoghi azzurri di cieli e acquiloni, nei giorni sereni che non rivedrò io stavo già aspettando Godot.L'adolescenza mi strappò di là, e mi portò ad un tavolo grigio, dove fra tanti libri però, invece di leggere aspettavo Godot.Giorni e giorni a quei tavolini, gli amici e le donne vedevo vicini, io mi mangiavo le mani però, non mi muovevo e aspettavo Godot.Ma se i sensi comandano l'uomo obbedisce, così sposai la prima che incontrai, ma anche la notte di nozze però, non feci nulla aspettando Godot.Poi lei mi costrinse ed un figlio arrivò, piccolo e tondo urlava ogni sera, ma invece di farlo giocare un po', io uscivo fuori ad aspettare Godot.E dopo questo un altro arrivò, e dopo il secondo un altro però, per esser del tutto sincero dirò, che avrei preferito arrivasse Godot.Sono invecchiato aspettando Godot, ho sepolto mio padre aspettando Godot, ho cresciuto i miei figli aspettando Godot.Sono andato in pensione dieci anni fa, ed ho perso la moglie acquistando in età, i miei figli son grandi e lontani però, io sto ancora aspettando Godot.Questa sera sono un vecchio di settantanni, solo e malato in mezzo a una strada, dopo tanta vita più pazienza non ho, non posso più aspettare Godot.Ma questa strada mi porta fortuna, c'è un pozzo laggiù che specchia la luna, è buio profondo e mi ci butterò, senza aspettare che arrivi Godot.In pochi passi ci sono davanti, ho il viso sudato e le mani tremanti, e la prima volta che sto per agire, senza aspettare che arrivi Godot.Ma l'abitudine di tutta una vita, ha fatto si che ancora una volta, per un momento io mi sia girato, a veder se per caso Godot era arrivato.La morte mi ha preso le mani e la vita, l'oblio mi ha coperto di luce infinita, e ho capito che non si può, coprirsi le spalle aspettando Godot.Non ho mai agito aspettando Godot, per tutti i miei giorni aspettando Godot, e ho incominciato a vivere forte, proprio andando incontro alla morte, ho incominciato a vivere forte, proprio andando incontro alla morte.Changes by David BowieStill don't know what I was waitin' forAnd my time was runnin' wildA million dead end streets andEvery time I thought I'd got it madeIt seemed the taste was not so sweetSo I turned myself to face meBut I've never caught a glimpseHow the others must see the fakerI'm much too fast to take that testCh-ch-ch-ch-changesTurn and face the strangeCh-ch-changesDon't want to be a richer manCh-ch-ch-ch-changesTurn and face the strangeCh-ch-changesThere's gonna have to be a different manTime may change meBut I can't trace timeMmm, yeahI watch the ripples change their sizeBut never leave the streamOf warm impermanenceAnd so the days float through my eyesBut still the days seem the sameAnd these children that you spit onAs they try to change their worldsAre immune to your consultationsThey're quite aware of what they're goin' throughCh-ch-ch-ch-changesTurn and face the strangeCh-ch-changesDon't tell them to grow up and out of itCh-ch-ch-ch-changesTurn and face the strangeCh-ch-changesWhere's your shame?You've left us up to our necks in itTime may change meBut you can't trace timeStrange fascinations fascinate meAh, changes are takingThe pace I'm goin' throughCh-ch-ch-ch-changesTurn and face the strangeCh-ch-changesOoh, look out, you rock 'n' rollersCh-ch-ch-ch-changesTurn and face the strangeCh-ch-changesPretty soon now you're gonna get olderTime may change meBut I can't trace timeI said that time may change meBut I can't trace time

Back to Paradise Island (Summer 2011) This mix was recorded live at an outdoor private event with two professional live African percussionists on conga drums. Due to technical limitations at the venue, I was unable to add their tracks to this mix. Miriam Makeba's classic tune "Pata Pata" is one of my all time favorites and my live remix of it was spontaneous and unrehearsed. I generally do not plan my sets, and tends to go with the spirit of the moment. Audience at this event really liked the outcome and I hope you enjoy it too. Booking agents and promoters; please provide adequate audio monitor, especially in an outdoor settings. A standard guideline is to double the amount of indoor monitors for outdoor events to compensate for wind and crowd noise. Cheers - DJ Nature Boy
Nature Boy presents Tribe of One (Live Tour Set 2010) This mix was recorded from my live tour sets for the summer 2010 World tour series featuring everything from Afrobeat to Brazilian samba and mariachi influenced tracks from Mexico. Hence the title "Tribe of One".
