The MAG Church Podcast with Pastor J.R. Armstrong | Mauriceville, TX
Series: Team Lift! - Week 1 #magchurch #MauricevilleAllGospelChurch
Andre Robertson on Texas, the Yankees, and the accident that changed everythingFormer Major League shortstop Andre Robertson joins Melvin E. Edwards to trace a career that moves from Orange, Texas to the University of Texas, the New York Yankees, and the 1981 World Series. He also reflects on the racial barriers he faced, the coaches and teammates who shaped him, and the car accident that reshaped his playing career and life.We discuss:How Andre fell in love with baseball as a kid in Orange, why Texas was the right choice over going pro right out of high school, and what it meant to become the first African American baseball scholarship player at UT. He also shares stories about Yogi Berra, Rickey Henderson, Reggie Jackson, Tommy John, and George Steinbrenner.Key topics* Andre recalls growing up in Orange, Texas, where he started organized baseball at age 8 and played with some of the first Black Little League players in his area.* He tells two clubhouse stories, including Yogi Berra's strange instruction to “pair up in threes” and Rickey Henderson's third-person humor.* His father coached him early on and helped shape his approach to competition, discipline, and team-first thinking.* Andre talks about seeing Willie Mays as a kid and realizing he wanted to play at the highest level.* He explains how a state track meet in Austin led to Texas coach Cliff Gustafson recruiting him after seeing his athleticism.* At Texas, he had to switch from shortstop to second base, where assistant coach Bill Bethea helped refine his footwork and turn him into a better pro prospect.* He reflects on the 1979 College World Series, Texas' dominant run, and the disappointment of being knocked out by Arkansas and a California team.* Andre describes the social reality of being the only Black player on the Texas team for three years and how he responded to racism by focusing on the game.* He talks about leaving after his junior year, later returning to finish his degree in 1992 through correspondence courses.* Andre explains the culture shock of going from Orange, Texas to New York City and how he mentally narrowed his focus to handle Yankee Stadium pressure.* He shares his major league debut in 1981, Reggie Jackson's advice to “do what you did to get here,” and the confidence boost from getting hits in his first game.* He reflects on the 1981 World Series, his limited role as a pinch runner, and the humility of being part of a championship-caliber roster.* Andre remembers Tommy John as a friendly teammate and as a pitcher whose elbow surgery and long career made an impact on the game.* He discusses George Steinbrenner's demanding standards and says the owner's expectations matched the Yankee tradition of winning.* Andre recounts the 1983 car accident that fractured his C2 vertebrae, his long recovery, and the blessing of being able to return to baseball at all.* After playing, he moved into substitute teaching briefly and then spent decades working at DuPont, now Dow.* He closes with a look at his family, including three successful children, and his plans for retirement, golf tournaments, and more time with his wife.* The episode ends with his playful Texas and Texas A&M rivalry story, including the card-signing event where Aggies were reluctant to take UT pictures.Notable quotes“My father always told me, you don't need to talk about yourself, but let other people tell your stories.”“Do what you did to get here.”“It wasn't lucky, I was blessed.”Media Well Done, LLC Get full access to Melvin E.

Orange. Month. Woman. Purple. We start with No Rhyme Nor Reason Day and tumble into a surprisingly useful question: why do some things resist neat rules, whether it's language, poetry, or the way change happens in schools? (See what we did there?) It's light, a little nerdy, and a reminder that sometimes doing something just for the joy of it is reason enough.Then we shift to the work that really matters for educators: instructional coaching that actually moves classroom practice and student learning.

You and I have been trained to want more. You have been trained to see yourself as incomplete without the next car, the next house, the next upgrade. And the people who trained you did it deliberately, professionally, and with plausible deniability baked into every word on the label. Orange juice beverage. Sales event. Plausibly not lying. Definitely bamboozling. In this episode, Dov sits down with Neal Foard (F-O-A-R-D, pronounced Ford), a lifelong advertising creative who helped launch Lexus at Saatchi & Saatchi, spent 30 years inside the industry, and now spends his time doing something almost nobody in his field does. He goes online and tells short true stories about ordinary human decency, because after three decades of writing what he now calls propaganda, he became convinced that the countervailing force to a divide-and-consume culture is quieter and stranger than most people expect. It is the deliberate practice of staying ordinary. Then Dov and Neal take that principle somewhere unexpected...Not to self-help, but to what it looks like when the practice of ordinariness meets the culture of Andrew Tate, the seduction of consumerism, the loneliness epidemic, and the specific psychological trick that makes a barely-employed man idolize a billionaire. Neal has one of the sharpest single stories in this series, told about his father, a 1960 Oldsmobile, and a young cowboy on Interstate 5 in 1969, that redefines what "faith in humanity" actually costs to earn. Inside this conversation: The airport troll: how one improv actor with a pink-haired troll doll turned two abusive customers, two exhausted counter agents, and a boarding gate into an unexpected upgrade for everyone paying attention The insider vocabulary you have been reading your whole life without noticing: orange juice beverage, sales event, and the specific legal formula the industry uses for plausible deniability The Vonnegut and Heller exchange at the billionaire's house that names the single word most successful people have forgotten how to feel Neal's rule for anyone who wants to tell better stories, and the one thing every amateur storyteller does that instantly loses the room Dov's own confession: the moment nine months after his 120-foot fall when he realized the man he had been was never coming back If you came here for a comfortable listen about the power of storytelling, this is the wrong podcast. If you came because something in you has been quietly wondering whether the stories you have been telling yourself are the ones you would tell if you were the person you actually want to be, press play.

In this episode we're partnering with Estée Lauder for the first in a new series: Fragrant Focus. This is where we take our time exploring a single scent - smelling it together and sharing our thoughts. And we have an exciting GIVEAWAY for you to enter! Listen and read on to find out how to enter, hear our reviews of Glimmer, and the beautiful inspiration behind its launch.We have a plethora of exciting new launches to tell you about, from niche names, designer and heritage houses alike. But we begin with an emotional journey to capture the scent of something very special to Suzy…MANE Dad's RoseSuzy got very emotional about this olfactory delivery, as MANE - a fragrance creation house in the U.K. who've made scents for some of the biggest brands out there - managed to capture the scent of a rise her father planted for her when she was a little girl. One of MANE's standout innovations is their ‘Jungle Essence™' technology. In some ways similar to ‘headspace' captures of previously unusable materials in perfumery, these essences are utterly unique and exclusive to MANE. And to see it in action is just MIND BLOWING!Jungle Essence™ is a patented, eco-friendly scent and flavor extraction technology created by the fragrance house MANE. It uses supercritical carbon dioxide (CO₂) to capture the exact, true-to-life aroma of a raw material—whether it is a spice used in men's cologne, a flower, or wood—without using harsh chemical solvents or high heat. You can hear all about the process in a special Patron only extra episode on patreon.com (search for ‘On the Scent podcast' to find us)Penhaligon's The Manoeuvres of The BaronessSuzy and Nicola got very excited about this latest character in the Portraits collection (and it's an orange blossom - one of the notes they regularly swoon over!) Key notesOrange Blossom, Chantilly, Sandalwood‘Collector of secrets and quiet conspiracies, the Baroness has always ruled from the shadows. Orange blossom sparkles with influence next to Chantilly. A whispered order of sandalwood. She doesn't outrun danger; she outsmarts it.'Jil Sander collectionBoth Suzy & Nicola were hugely impressed by the latest Jil Sander fragrances, and these were Suzy's two favourites:Lily‘Caught by surprise by an enchanting perfume on a warm Florentine night.Lilies are white, sensual flowers that primarily release their fragrance after sunset.In Jil Sander Lily the aldehydes bring the flower's metallic, blooming facets to life, while the floral power of the CO₂ extracted Jasmine Sambac, the warmth of Benzoin from Vietnam, and the verticality of the upcycled Cypress structure and balance this luscious, radiant fragrance.This new majestic Floral White Flower fragrance magnifies the ephemeral into a lasting form.'Mahogony:‘The supreme energy of a tropical forest captured into a scent.For the depths of its hues where red turns to black, mahogany is one of the most fascinating trees.Jil Sander Mahogany pays homage to this exceptional expression of nature in a fragrance that fuses upcycled Cedarwood with the profound leathery facets of Cypriol from India, the fizzy, spicy notes of CO₂ extracted Ginger, and the aldehydes.A rich and sophisticated Woody Leathery fragrance that raises mahogany to new heights.'Nicola was so impressed by how realistic the Jil Sander Sesame was (though admits she may not be brave enough to wear it yet), while Suzy thought it was cosy and comforting.French Cowboy Mezcal Chocolate (available at Wild Iris)Suzy continues to be wowed by this exciting new niche house, and cannot wait for cooler weather in which to indulge in this one.‘Mezcal Chocolat is fueled by extraordinary raw materials. It hits like a shot of mezcal: it opens with a sparkling Lime Oil, sharpened by Olibanum from Somalia for smoky depth. To push it further, our perfumer added an ultra-rare Rhum extract (as costly as some of perfumery's finest Iris!).Instead of just a synthetic cacao accord, Mezcal Chocolat goes all in on Cacao Absolute: the most precious form of cocoa, used here in unprecedented amounts. Its creaminess melts into a bed of woods: Virginia Cedarwood, prized for its soft smoky creaminess, and Cypriol Oil from India, adding shadow, depth, and a dark, earthy glow.'Byredo Future MemoriesAnother fascinating take on vanilla, and our hosts both adored the juicy blackcurrant note balance g the sweetness here. ‘Byredo captures the tension between now and next: an invitation to live fully, to choose deliberately, to imprint the present with intention. Held like a quiet mantra at the back of the mind, one question remains: What do you choose today, to remember tomorrow?A scent crafted like a memory in motion. The fragrance opens with the vivid green freshness of galbanum, illuminated by the juicy brightness of blackcurrant and a veil of aldehydes that diffuse light through the composition. At its heart, powdery iris unfolds alongside warm, resinous labdanum, creating a textured impression that settles gently onto the skin. In the base, vanilla emerges in full, enriched by Ambrofix and an intimate veil of musks lingering on the skin as a subtle trace of what remains.Top Notes: Galbanum essence, blackcurrant accord, and fresh aldehydes for a bright, sparkling, and green start.Heart Notes: Iris butter, labdanum resinoid, orange blossom, and white vanilla accord providing powdery floral warmth.Base Notes: Madagascar vanilla CO2, vanilla liqueur accord, Ambrofix, and sensual musks.'Nishane Thorns Become RosesWhen a rose is velvety and gorgeous but still displays its sharpness… This is by Julien Rasquinet, and inspired by the Rumi quote "With love, thorns become roses"‘Thorns Become Roses is a contemporary, contrast-driven rose that embodies transformation, evolving from a vivid, luminous opening into an intense floral heart, and settling into a deep, enveloping woody amber trail. Crafted as an extrait de parfum, it redefines the rose through a balance of tension and softness, offering a structured yet sensual and evolving olfactive experience.Lychee and raspberry, luminous and vibrant, meet the metallic sharpness of saffron and cardamom, evoking the harsh brilliance of noon light on Petra's cliffs.At its heart, Turkish rose unfolds with dense, velvety depth, held in contrast by the green-leathery facets of violet leaf and the powdery softness of mimosa. A rose both thorned and tender, asserting its beauty through contrast.The base settles into a mineral, enduring trail of amberwood and patchouli, softened by creamy sandalwood. Here, tension gives way to a quiet radiance, neither sweet nor austere, but balanced, tactile, and lasting.Top Notes: lychee, raspberry, saffronHeart Notes: rose, mimosa, blackcurrantBase Notes: patchouli, amberwood, aetoxylon'FRAGRANT FOCUS:AD: Estée Lauder GlimmerExtraordinarily, this is the first new main line fragrance for 12 years, and the first ever gourmand style fragrance for the house!

The Challenge Cutthroat Ep 5 Recap Also available on YouTube. MTV's The Challenge: Cutthroat 2 Episode 5 brings shifting alliances, captaincy drama, and fierce mud-soaked battles, as Brian Cohen and Ali Lasher dive into the season's pivotal developments. With debate swirling over the new captain format and a close look at how team dynamics are changing, the hosts unpack the strategic decisions, and slip-ups, that could redefine the game moving forward. The episode opens with discussion on the impact of the captaincy twist, as longstanding vets debate whether stepping up as captain is worth the risk, especially with limited downside revealed so far. The podcast then explores the new “mutiny” mechanic, examining why an all-or-nothing team vote may fail to shake up the game, and how this restricts both voting and strategy as teams shrink in size. The conversation moves to the daily challenge, highlighting the physical brawl in the mud, the deals and betrayals between teams, and the controversy surrounding Sydney's injury and ensuing blame game. A key part of the discussion centers on fractured friendships, tough captain decisions, and the way loyalty can clash with good gameplay, especially for players like Cory, Nelson, and Keanu. Finally, the co-hosts break down the elimination, analyze which players are most likely to return, and question the strength of each remaining team as the final inches closer. Brian and Ali highlight: Strategic calculus behind volunteer captains and why certain vets opt out How the mutiny twist creates more roadblocks than opportunities for power shifts Tense daily challenge alliances and betrayals, with negotiations among Blue, Gray, and Orange teams Sydney's injury fallout, including house drama and debates over responsibility The impact of Cory and Nelson's friendship on critical elimination decisions As captains rise and fall and alliances get tested, is the current format locking teams into predictable outcomes, or is someone poised to break the mold?

Can you believe we didn’t really discover vitamin C until the 1930’s? Well, Nile Foster, knew what to do with it. Dave Young: Welcome to The Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not so secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom and pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I’m Stephen’s sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today’s episode, word from our sponsor, which is, well, it’s us, but we’re highlighting ads we’ve written and produced for our clients. So here’s one of those. [Handyside Ad] Dave Young: Welcome back to The Empire Builders Podcast. Dave Young here alongside Stephen Semple. And Steven has just told me what today’s topic is and made the assumption that it’s probably something from my childhood and sort of… We were more Tang kids than Hi-C. Stephen Semple: Okay. Dave Young: So Hi-C is the topic and I’m probably a little old maybe because it was the little Hawaiian guy, right? Their TV- Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: … commercials were the little Hawaiian guy with the pow or something like he’d come and I remember what he would do, saki or something, but he was kind of an obnoxious little mascot. But this is a orange drink or a fruit drink for kids that had some vitamin C in it, which made it a health food. Stephen Semple: Basically. Dave Young: Yeah. But I was the Apollo generation, so the fact that the astronauts drank Tang- Stephen Semple: Yeah, that was the- Dave Young: … all I really wanted was some Tang. Stephen Semple: You wanted Tang? Dave Young: Mm-hmm. Stephen Semple: All right. Well, Hi-C is actually kind of a surprising story because it’s actually a story about a company that built a product around a technological constraint and then had to pivot as the technology eliminated that constraint, which is kind of similar to Swiss Miss. Remember when we did Swiss Miss, there was a couple of these technological changes that forced them to pivot. So Hi-C was launched in 1946 and originally as Hi-C orange. And then of course, as they added a bunch of other flavors, things like that, they eliminated the word orange from it. And it was created by Niles Foster in Florida and in 1954, it was acquired by Minute Maid for approximately $40 million. So they did really quite well. And it’s estimated that they were doing $5 million in sales at the time. And then in 1960, Coke buys Minute Maid and Hi-C now finds itself with bigger distribution. So today Hi-C is a Coca-Cola brand. For generations of kids, it was this brightly colored fruit drink that we all grew up with. And frankly, if you ever ate at a McDonald’s, there’s reasonable chance that you had a Hi-C there. But Hi-C started with essentially a problem. And the problem was this, how do you give Americans orange juice when most Americans can’t easily store orange juice? Dave Young: Ah, okay. Stephen Semple: Even though it was launched in 1946, our story actually starts in the 1930s. Here’s the thing that I kind of found interesting is that basically vitamin C had only been identified as a vitamin in the early 1930s. Dave Young: So people are still getting scurvy or? Stephen Semple: Well, people knew that you should be having fruit, but they didn’t identify- Dave Young: Vitamin C. Stephen Semple: … vitamin C specifically. So vitamin C was discovered as a vitamin in the early 1930s. And then in 1941, the National Research Council published the first recommended dietary allowance. So for the first time, Americans were given specific guidance on nutrition, including vitamins. “Here’s how much you should consume.” So nutrition was now something that could be measured and that created interesting marketing opportunity because instead of simply saying, “This is good for you,” we can now say, “This gives you your daily allotment of vitamin C.” Dave Young: Your recommended daily allowance. Yeah, yeah. Stephen Semple: There you go. And this becomes important because along comes Niles Foster who’s working in Florida. Florida has lots of oranges, but there’s a problem. Orange juice is not the breakfast staple we think of today because fresh oranges were seasonal, fresh juice did not travel well, and storing and distributing juice was a huge problem. If you wanted orange juice, what happened in those days, you squeezed it yourself. Dave Young: Okay. So you got to get oranges to people. Yeah. Stephen Semple: Yeah. So he sees this opportunity. Could he create this affordable orange-based drink that tasted good, could sit on a grocery shelf, didn’t need to be frozen, and provided the nutritional benefit as outlined in the guidelines? Dave Young: Gotcha. Okay. Stephen Semple: So essentially what Foster did is he developed an orange drink made from water, sugar, orange juice, concentrate, a bunch of different citrus oils and fortified it with vitamin C. Dave Young: All right. And canned it? Stephen Semple: Well, the other challenge was vitamin C, which is ascorbic acid, is tart. Dave Young: Yeah. It would eat through a can. Stephen Semple: Yeah. So he had to play around a lot with the formulation and also a lot of it was adding certain oils and things like that. So basically you could put it in a can. Dave Young: Gotcha. Okay. Stephen Semple: Yeah. So he created this convenient, inexpensive, shelf-stable orange drink with vitamin C. Dave Young: All right. Then way earlier than I figured. Stephen Semple: Yeah. And what should he call it? He called it Hi-C Dave Young: Because it had high concentration of vitamin C. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: And it’s funny because normally having the benefit built directly into the brand name is often not good because if he called it high concentration of vitamin C, Hi-C was kind of, while it’s sort of what it was at the same time, it was such a simplification of the name. I though it was great. Dave Young: Yeah. And it locks in that benefit, so it’s easy to understand, but it also just has a cool feel, like you say it pretty easily. Yeah. Stephen Semple: Yeah. So he knows a product, but he needs to make it. And he’s not a wealthy guy. He couldn’t finance factories and things along that line. So he took a page from Coke and he licensed it. But here’s the problem with taking a canned drink national. America’s big. Shipping heavy cans filled with liquids thousands of miles is expensive. So his expansion model was basically contract packers around the country. Hi-C provided the formulation and the standards, but local and regional processors could produce the product. But the other thing he allowed them to do was produce the product closer, not only closer where the markets could be sold, but he also allowed them to do regional things. So in other words, if you’re a place that had lots of strawberries, you could do a strawberry version of Hi-C. Dave Young: Okay. That’s really interesting because you give up a certain amount of control there. I mean, a lot. Stephen Semple: Yeah. So for example, one of the first ones to do it was a co-packer in Geneva, Ohio, which did, because there’s lots of grapes growing there, did a grape drink one. So Hi-C developed a grape drink. And then there was a Michigan operator who did apples and cherries. So it led to all these Hi-C flavor variations. Dave Young: Well, see, and this is another key point about why I didn’t become a Hi-C fan as a child. Nebraska had corn and beef and nobody wants either of those in a drink. Stephen Semple: Could be. Dave Young: I mean, a warm cup of boullion is all right sometimes. Stephen Semple: Now, here’s what things get interesting. So Foster is building out Hi-C, getting it popular and whatnot, and there’s a technological revolution. Refrigeration ownership explodes. Dave Young: Okay. Yeah. Stephen Semple: So remember, the problem was no refrigeration made, canned juice. But by the 1950s, refrigerators were almost in every household, right? Yeah. So that changed what food companies could sell, and guess what ended up happening? Dave Young: Stay tuned. We’re going to wrap up this story and tell you how to apply this lesson to your business right after this. [Using Stories To Sell] Dave Young: Let’s pick up our story where we left off, and trust me, you haven’t missed a thing. Stephen Semple: In 1950s, refrigerators were almost in every household, right? Yeah. So that changed what food companies could sell, and guess what ended up happening? 1946, along comes Minute Maid shipping frozen concentrated- Dave Young: Orange juice. Yeah. Stephen Semple: Yeah. So now family… Right. And then along comes Tropicana. Anthony Rossi starts processing citrus in Florida and he creates this flash pasteurization and you got Tropicana Pure Premium. So now you’ve got all these competitors coming in competing with Hi-C, and essentially the technology was eliminating the need for Hi-C. Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: This is a pivotable moment. Hi-C could no longer win by simply saying, “We make orange juice convenient.” Dave Young: All right. Stephen Semple: Right? Dave Young: So what was their next pivot? Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: Because they’re still around. Stephen Semple: Yes. So what Hi-C leaned into is something that competitors weren’t owning. It wasn’t just simply orange juice. It was fun plus flavor, plus convenience, plus vitamin C. The brand advertised aggressively, aggressively the fun factor, and the other combinations of juices that there were. So in 1954, Minute Maid comes along and acquires the company, and then, as I said, then Coca-Cola came along and acquired Minute Maid, so it’s now all part of the Coca-Cola machine, and it continues to expands flavors. It’s got orange pineapple, pineapple grapefruit, Florida Punch, peach, grape, apple cherry, all these sorts of things. So it’s less reliant on orange juice and it’s really a fruit drink brand. Dave Young: So I want to fact check myself on something I said earlier. That little Hawaiian guy, that was Hawaiian Punch, not Hi-C. Stephen Semple: Oh, that was Hawaiian Punch. Okay. Dave Young: Right? Stephen Semple: Right. Dave Young: But yeah, that’s what popped into my head. Stephen Semple: Right, but one example they did really well on the kids’ flavor, characters, all the other stuff is in 1987, Hi-C created Ectocooler as a promotion tie-in with the real Ghostbusters, and it was supposed to be temporary, but it was loved so much that it ran for quite a while as people are drinking this gobbly, gooey, green looking looking stuff. So Niles Foster started Hi-C to solve a practical problem involving orange juice nutrition and shelf stability that then later got technology, took all that away, but kids are still drinking it because along the way, the product was able to pivot and the brand has continued to survive. Dave Young: I don’t want some orange juice. I don’t want a glass of orange juice. I want something fun as a kid. Stephen Semple: But I think the thing is, the first lesson was the innovation, right? But then the second thing was they didn’t confuse the solution with the business. When refrigerators came along, they couldn’t look at themselves as being, “We’re in the shelf stable orange juice business.” Instead, they’re able to go, “We’re in the fruit drink business.” Dave Young: Well, and then they figured out juice boxes, right? They figured out how to put this stuff into individual servings. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: That had to be big because now you can put it in a lunchbox. Stephen Semple: Yes. But the product survived. They were able to change their thinking away from the original problem they were trying to solve, and they were able to pivot away from that and do other things. I though it was interesting because it paralleled a lot of the Swiss Miss challenges, right? Dave Young: Sure. Yeah. You have to be able to react and adjust and pivot. I mean, pivot is just, “Hey, conditions have changed. What are we going to do to keep the company alive?” Stephen Semple: Technology in this case, technology has come along and removed the problem that we were originally trying to solve. So what do we do now? Dave Young: Yeah. So what about your childhood? Did you drink Hi-C? Did they have it up in the northern reaches of Canada? Stephen Semple: Oh, yes. Yes, we did. So I definitely remember Minute Maid Orange Juice because I remember making the orange juice and you’d wait for the plop. That plop. Dave Young: Took a long time for that giant frozen chunk of juice, and then you had to use a big wooden spoon to crush it and mash it into the water. Hi-C would be a lot more convenient. Stephen Semple: I definitely remember Minute Maid. And then I remember apple juice being kind of the other thing. I don’t think we had Hi-C around much. We were not big on things that had sugar added in my household when I was growing up. Dave Young: I think what my mom was doing was… I remember chewing a lot of vitamin C tablets. Stephen Semple: Right. Dave Young: So I think she was just getting us our vitamin C in a different way and we weren’t on the Hi-C path. Stephen Semple: Right. But it’s funny, I do remember the odd time when we’re talking about Hawaiian Punch. I do remember the odd time Hawaiian Punch making its way into the household. Dave Young: Yeah, this stuff was always just too sweet for me. I like sweet stuff, but the sweet drinks, a little too much sometimes. Stephen Semple: Yeah. So again, and this is an example of… It’s interesting when we think about technology, and there’s always the obvious things that technology is going to impact, but it’s interesting that we’ve now done a couple of food businesses where these food businesses were created because of either technological challenges or technological changes. It’s very easy when we see technology coming to see the things it’s going to eliminate. It was easy if we’re sitting here in the 1930s, economists in the 1930s at the beginning of what we call the second industrial revolution. At that point, something like 33% or 35%, something like that, of people work directly in the agricultural industry. And so it was very easy for economists to go, “The economy’s screwed because these jobs are going to all disappear.” And they were right, they did, because today it’s what? 5% of people work directly in agricultural industry. Dave Young: Yeah, yeah. Stephen Semple: But what’s often hard to see is what are all the new opportunities that happen? I was reading somewhere that if we go from 1920 and we go from 1920 to the year 2000, something like 60% of the jobs that we do didn’t exist. And some of them are ones that are surprisingly… like heating and air conditioning repairman. That job didn’t exist. We don’t think about that as being an opportunity that was created by the industrial revolution, right? Dave Young: Yeah, for sure. Stephen Semple: And this is the reason why some of these predictions can be hard to call, but also the reason why you’ve got to keep your eyes open to the opportunities. Dave Young: All right. Hi-C. Cheers. Stephen Semple: Hi-C. Dave Young: Cheers to you and may Coca-Cola carry the brand forward proudly or whatever. Stephen Semple: There we go. Dave Young: I don’t know. I don’t know if I… They don’t need our help. Stephen Semple: I’m not feeling the enthusiasm. Dave Young: They’re probably not listening to The Empire Builders Podcast to get their advice on how to manage the Hi-C brand, but it’s fun looking at it. Thanks, Stephen. Stephen Semple: Thanks, Dave. Dave Young: Thanks for listening to the podcast.

The MAG Church Podcast with Pastor J.R. Armstrong | Mauriceville, TX
#magchurch #MauricevilleAllGospelChurch
This episode starts with a listener trying to solve a very real problem: how to get wheelchair-accessible seating for Rizz Show Night at the Blues game when the normal accessibility option isn't showing up for the theme-night tickets. Instead of letting Zach wander endlessly through ticketing menus designed by somebody who apparently hates convenience, Riz decides to pass the issue along and try to get him some actual help.Then the show turns to a frightening story out of Columbia, Missouri, where a 21-year-old former Mizzou student suffered severe injuries after falling from the rooftop area at Harpo's. The crew talks about what was known about the accident, the young man's condition, and their own experiences with Columbia's downtown, the Blue Note, Shakespeare's, old venues and the college-town scene. It's a genuinely awful situation, and everybody's hoping the kid pulls through.But because this is a funny show physically incapable of traveling in a straight line, we eventually get an update on the earlier 49ers prostitution-sting discussion. A listener from Ohio introduces the theory of a possible “Sunday brunch special,” which only creates more questions about how a wealthy NFL owner allegedly winds up at an East Palestine trailer park at 9:30 in the morning. Then comes the important question nobody else is brave enough to investigate: What kind of car are you driving into that situation?And then Simpleton Trivia arrives to destroy everybody's self-esteem.The premise sounds insultingly easy: answer 10 common-knowledge questions in 45 seconds. Get one wrong and you're immediately done. Callers can either take the challenge themselves for two pairs of tickets or put their faith in somebody from The Rizzuto Show and bet on—or against—them.What could possibly go wrong?Everything.Chris steps up first and is immediately asked how many days are in a leap year. His answer? 365. Goodbye, Chris. Thanks for playing.Matt looks unstoppable. Hours in two days? 48. Capital of the United States? Washington, D.C. Sides on a stop sign? Eight. South Pole? Antarctica. He's cruising toward victory until Rafe asks what color you get when you mix red and yellow.Green.Orange. It's orange.Then Tom makes the smartest decision anybody makes during the entire game: bet against Lern. She powers through skin, inches, Mercury, multiplication and Thanksgiving before the trees show up. Pine tree? Deciduous?Evergreen.Congratulations, Tom. You have successfully weaponized our stupidity for free Blues tickets.Mark tries next and comes flying out of the gate powered by Pepsi and Red Bull, which sounds medically questionable but strategically promising. He handles math, directions, colors, decades and elephants before being asked which state is known as the Sunshine State.California.Damn.Then a caller decides to trust Riz. This goes spectacularly well for roughly zero seconds. His first question: how many nickels make $1.25?And thus “25, damn” joins “California, damn” and “deciduous, damn” in the rapidly expanding Simpleton Trivia Hall of Shame.Surely Moon can save the reputation of the funny show, right?A caller puts his faith in Moon because Moon hasn't let him down in five years. Even worse, the caller wants Blues tickets so he can take his daughter to her first Blues game. The emotional stakes are unnecessarily high. Everybody tells him not to tell the kid yet.Moon starts strong. Seven times eight? Sand makes glass? Bald eagle? Caterpillars become butterflies? Springfield?Then Rafe asks how many months have 31 days.Moon says five.It's seven.Somewhere, an imaginary child begins crying in study hall.There's one final shot at redemption when Miranda puts her faith in Moon for AC/DC and Foo Fighters tickets so she can take her nine-year-old son to his first show. Again, everybody immediately makes this far more emotionally devastating than a morning-radio trivia game has any right to be.Moon crushes the equator, 50 states, rubies, multiplication, frogs, Canada, spider legs and photosynthesis.Then comes bread.What's the main ingredient?Yeast? Water?Flour.The game is over, dignity is dead, and Tom—the guy who had the good sense to bet against the show—is basically the only person walking away happy.This funny show has once again proven something important: never underestimate common knowledge, never trust a radio personality with your child's concert dreams, and if you're offered the opportunity to bet against The Rizzuto Show, maybe take it.Deciduous. Damn.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 090: Jeff Booth and Scott Melker discuss Bitcoin adoption, ETF co-opting, the AI bubble, self-custody risk after the ColdCard hack, and the debt reset.Wall Street, the ETFs, and the treasury companies are making every attempt to co-opt Bitcoin — and Jeff Booth and Scott Melker explain why that capture attempt may be exactly what Bitcoin needs to survive. The $350 trillion global debt pile is already insolvent, the AI bubble is still inflating, and self-custody just took a brutal reality check after the ColdCard fallout.In this conversation you'll learn why Booth believes the existing system and Bitcoin cannot coexist over the long run, why he feels "incredible" even as price bleeds, and how the messy financialization of Bitcoin through institutions still funnels people toward spot self-custody. You'll hear Melker's honest read on adoption — that when arguments come down to "rolling dice for entropy," we are nowhere near mainstream — and Booth's thesis on why AI CapEx can never be paid back when the marginal cost of a line of code is zero. You'll also get a candid post-mortem on hardware wallet security, why "don't trust, verify" broke down for thousands of users, and what a new generation of self-custody solutions might look like.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro0:54 - Scott on adoption and why Bitcoin is strongest yet3:08 - Did Covid pull forward Bitcoin demand like credit?5:20 - Jeff Booth's first-principles case: $350T of insolvent debt7:33 - Why Bitcoin and the centralizing system can't coexist8:33 - If they can't kill it, they have to co-opt it9:04 - Where each of us chooses to put our energy11:44 - Does financialization actually risk decentralization?12:11 - Scott's 2026 tweet on Bitcoin being co-opted15:22 - Sticky narratives and gaining exposure to Bitcoin15:49 - Scott's personal path from altcoins to Bitcoin17:39 - Jeff on watching thousands make the same transition18:14 - The rational actor trapped inside the system22:32 - The abundance of deflation and killing the price story26:07 - Ad: Abundant Mines27:03 - What Wall Street friends really think of Bitcoin28:09 - The ColdCard hack hits the Bloomberg terminal30:09 - Will people flee to qualified custodians and ETFs?31:11 - How far along the self-custody journey are we really?33:05 - Rolling dice for entropy and the honesty test35:47 - Self-custody as an active, ongoing responsibility39:10 - How would you tell a beginner to custody Bitcoin in 2026?40:42 - The brutal and beautiful side of the Bitcoin community45:35 - Testing your recovery: move it, back it up, verify47:13 - New private federation and settlement security models48:41 - Scott's view of the AI markets and the coming bubble pop51:26 - Jeff on marginal cost of code, why everything goes to free55:14 - Orange juice, private equity, and moving businesses into Bitcoin57:22 - Where to follow Scott and Jeff

The 2010s introduced an extraordinary generation of fantasy, science-fiction, and horror authors—but which debut novels made the strongest lasting impression?In this episode, Jim travels year by year through the decade, selecting the best debut fantasy novel, science-fiction novel, and horror novel published in every year from 2010 through 2019.Thirty winning books — plus thirty runners-up representing some of the decade's closest decisions.Every eligible book had to meet one strict requirement: it must have been the author's first published novel of any kind—not merely a first book in a series, first adult novel, first speculative novel, or first release from a major publisher.The selections balance:• The quality of the debut itself• Awards and professional recognition• Originality and influence• Continued readership• Long-term reputation• The importance of the career, series, or fictional universe it launchedSome winners became major bestsellers. Some launched beloved series. Some transformed their genres. And a few remain remarkable books still waiting for more readers to discover them.Jim also examines what changed across speculative fiction during the decade and reveals his personal fantasy, science-fiction, and horror picks from among all thirty winners.Which selection did Jim get exactly right? Which runner-up deserved the victory? And what overlooked debut from the 2010s should have made the list?Share your choices—and your most passionate disagreements—in the comments!Thanks to our Patreon supporters!

Hour 3 (8.21) L.A. County's own report puts the Paramount-Warner Bros. deal at 4,500 film and TV jobs lost over three years — on top of the 52,000 the region has already shed since 2022. And that's if the studios stay. 8:05 PM — Attention, Angelenos. A report to the Board of Supervisors this week from the county's Department of Economic Opportunity and CVL Economics says the Paramount Skydance–Warner Bros. Discovery merger would cost roughly 4,500 direct film and TV jobs in the county, with more than 10,000 total job-years and billions in economic activity at risk. That's the version where the merged company stays here. David Ellison is threatening to move operations to Texas or Tennessee if Rob Bonta won't come to the table by October 1. Bonta and eleven other attorneys general are suing to block the deal, and trial isn't until March. Then a burglary suspect in a Honda Accord led LAPD for over an hour through the Valley — through a CSUN parking structure, through a gas station, T-boned by an innocent driver in Granada Hills — before pulling a U-turn on the 405 and going head-on into a CHP SUV in North Hills. He ran. He didn't get far. 8:20 PM — Leveling Out: come meet Stu Mundel at Dave & Buster's in Orange. Plus the Los Feliz water main that let go at 11 o'clock last night at Commonwealth and Avocado — a six-inch cast iron line that buckled the sidewalk and flooded a restaurant patio. Crews had it back in service by 8 a.m. LADWP says the city averages two to four of these a day, which is either reassuring or the opposite. 8:35 PM — End of week WHIP. Then the tipping point, and we mean it literally: one survey has the average American leaving about $38 a month in tips they didn't want to leave in the first place, and Toast's data across 171,000 restaurants puts the overall average tip at 18.8%, dropping to 13.7% on takeout. Nearly three-quarters of Americans say they're being asked to tip in more places than five years ago. Skip the tip? We take your calls. Plus another chase, this one out of Woodland Hills. 8:50 PM — SeaWorld San Diego turned its Bayside Amphitheater into a Y2K block party. Ying Yang Twins opened the run, Ginuwine, Bow Wow, E-40, Ashanti and Jordin Sparks followed, and Too $hort and Warren G closed it out — all included with park admission, all going viral on TikTok, all with the bay behind the stage. Grandmothers, parents and kids at the same show. How a marine park accidentally built the best throwback series in Southern California. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Available at Gravity Taproom (Orlando), a bar in Winter Park, Legacy Wine and Liquors (Sanford), Rock Brew (Sanford), and One Utopia (Clermont), with tastings announced on their social media. Streamline Mortgage Solutions (streamlineflorida.com) — Contact Brian for free mortgage guidance; he tracks changing mortgage programs/laws and alerts clients when it's worth refinancing. Segment Rundown Cold open: Orlando Weekly wins — Tom and Dan thank listeners for voting them #1 podcast in the Orlando Weekly awards again (won every year but one), explain why the recognition matters for their small business, praise Will's Pub owner Will Walker for leaning into similar local promotion, and tease a story they're saving for Monday's BDM-only show. Nobody has it figured out — After a bit riffing on an adult-film parody, the group discusses chasing money and fame with Aimee, including the story of Pauly Shore once calling them for business advice and George Wallace still hustling decades into his career — the takeaway being that no one, however successful, ever fully "figures it out." Selling 10% of the show — Inspired by NFL teams selling ownership stakes (the Atlanta Falcons' $1.6B sale of 10%) and Mark Cuban's rise, the hosts joke about selling 10% of Tom and Dan and using AI to preserve their likenesses after death. Aimee's job buyout — Aimee shares that she's taking a voluntary severance from her 12-year job at a Medicaid-based insurance company, effective by May 2027, and has already lined up new therapy and contract work; the hosts joke about her stealing office supplies and the three of them starting an affiliate partnership. Neighbor bush feud advice — Aimee asks for help with an 11-year feud with an elderly neighbor over a shared, overgrown bush encroaching on her house; the group runs through escalating "solutions" (hiring a surveyor since overhanging branches can legally be trimmed, plant diseases/whiteflies, popping tires, a kindness gift basket) while Aimee also vents about the same neighbors letting their dogs bark late at night. Aimee's upcoming shows (first plug) — Plugs for Aimee's long-running Shit Sandwich comedy show (15 years, first and third Fridays, with Rue co-hosting), a free family show/class Aug 29 at the Melrose Center, an improv jam that same night at Stigma Tattoos through the Florida Comedy Collective, and a Sept 26 West End Live show opening for Johnny Pemberton (Fallout, Superstore, Pickle and Peanut). Marching band car wash fundraiser — Tom plugs his niece's Lake Howell Marching Band charity car wash, comparing it to his own high school band fundraiser days, and the group riffs on whether kids doing donation-based fundraisers should just be tipped for playing their instruments instead, plus a jab at cheap oversized "big check" charity photo ops. AI voice-translation app demo — Dan shows off an AI app that translates a video into other languages (French, Mandarin, Swedish) in the speaker's own voice with matching lip movement, demoed using Tom & Dan Cruise 2027 promo clips, sparking discussion of how fast real-time translation tech is advancing. Optimus robot speculation — Riffing on a detail from Tesla's Aug 5 earnings call (robots reportedly getting chips before cars), the hosts imagine owning a humanoid Optimus robot to drive any car and handle housework and yard work, while questioning Elon Musk's track record on self-driving promises. Costa Concordia documentary recap — Tom recaps a Netflix documentary on the 2012 Costa Concordia disaster (the captain's unauthorized close "salute" pass, the reef strike, 32 deaths, his botched response and prison sentence), tying it back to their own upcoming Tom & Dan Cruise announcement. Poop stories and Concrete Mike call — A riff on awkward public-pooping stories (a "poop cruise" documentary, past guests improvising with towels) leads into a call from regular listener "Concrete Mike," who talks about using job-site dumpsters instead of portable toilets, becoming a new grandfather the night before, and hitting his 50th birthday. Aging radio personality tangent — A riff on an old colleague/bit going "full radio" and speculation about the declining health of an unnamed public figure known for hormone-replacement therapy abuse. Grave-niche theft follow-up — Dan describes keeping his parents' and family dog's ashes in an urn box in his wife's office, following up on a prior story about robbers stealing from cemetery niches. Caller: Tom's mom — Tom calls his mom live on air to ask, hypothetically, whether she'd help him commit various crimes (grave robbing, fake pest-control scams, driving a getaway car); she affectionately confirms she'd always back him, contrasted with Aimee's mom, who Aimee says would turn her in. Penn State cocaine ring story — Discussion of a news story about a cocaine trafficking ring run out of two Penn State fraternities, the alleged ringleader facing decades in prison, and a broader riff on drug legalization versus criminalization and treatment-based drug policy. Portland, Oregon tangent — A brief detour recalling an unsettling encounter with an intimidating stranger during a past trip to Portland, comparing its street culture to Orlando's. World's oldest person story — Discussion of the new Guinness World Record holder for oldest living person (a British woman turning 117) and the extraordinary span of history she's lived through — the Great Depression, WWII, the moon landing, the invention of the internet, two pandemics, and the Titanic sinking. Aimee's C-section story — Aimee shares her emergency C-section experience, including the surgical team nicking her breech baby's toe and playing an unwanted song during the procedure, plus a listener's story about a relative's more serious, complicated C-section. Future medicine and tech nostalgia — Closing speculation about longevity advances (cancer vaccines, genetic screening at birth) alongside early-technology nostalgia, including Dan's dad's status-symbol car phone. Show close and plugs — Final recap of Aimee's upcoming shows, a tease that BDM members will hear a special story on Monday's show, and a note that a full Tom & Dan Cruise announcement is coming soon.

Like palm trees, the Everglades, Disney World, and “Florida Man,” the orange is a classic symbol of the Sunshine State. But maybe not for much longer.

It's a produce murder mystery—and reporter Alex Sammon and our friends at Decoder Ring are on the case.
