A wonderful discussion on Ritavan's podcast. Reposted here with full credit to him. Check out his show -- Part Maven, Part Maverick.I open with a story of a very memorable chance encounter with the billionaire investor and founder, Ken Langone, in my early years in New York City. We talk about trust, money, compounding, and so much more. Tune in this weekend!Bogumil Baranowski has spent two decades managing wealth for families. He speaks about how there are a thousand ways to make money, a thousand ways to live a happy life, and a thousand ways to keep and grow a family fortune, but the patterns that endure are timeless: patience, simplicity, and mindfulness.Bogumil has written 4 books, hosted the Talking Billions podcast fore more than 3 years with over 200 guests.His first book, Outsmarting the Crowd, strips investing down to its core. Stocks are not tickers; they are ownership in real businesses. Markets are emotional machines that transfer money from the impatient to the patient. Good investing isn't about intelligence or predictions. It's about behavior. The ability to think independently and sit still when others panic beats any complicated financial product or analysis.In Money, Life, Family, the scope expands. Making money is the easy part. Keeping it and staying grounded is harder. Bogumil breaks the pursuit into three parts:Money: Let capital compound quietly in the background.Life: Build a life you don't need to run away or retire from.Family: Pass down discipline and values before assets.The lesson is to treat wealth as something to be maintained, not chased. Staying rich is about avoiding mistakes, not finding genius trades. Simplicity, patience, and humility win.Crisis Investing was written during COVID, when the world lost its mind. The core idea: a crisis doesn't change your principles; it reveals whether you ever had them. Those who held cash, owned good businesses, and stayed calm survived. Those who built on leverage and noise didn't. Survival is underrated. So is sitting still.His more recent essays refine these ideas. He moved from chasing “cheap” stocks to owning great businesses. Cheap is useless if the business is bad. Quality, held long enough, does the heavy lifting. Investing isn't about finding magic moments. It's about enduring long stretches of boredom without losing discipline.He also writes about the psychology of money. Wealth doesn't change who you are; it amplifies what's already there. If you were anxious before, money gives you new ways to worry. If you were grounded, it gives you ways to live on your terms. The fix isn't more money; it's clarity about what's enough and why you're doing any of it in the first place.Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC. All statements and opinions expressed are based upon information considered reliable although it should not be relied upon as such.

Our guest on Episode #75 of the TGG Podcast, in association with Teamworks, is Merijn Zeeman. Merijn is the General Manager of AZ Alkmaar - a team that regularly compete at the top of the Eredivisie, despite having a budget that's dwarfed by their bigger rivals. Prior to joining AZ, Merijn was the Sporting Director at Dutch cycling outfit Team Visma, helping them create history by winning all three Grand Tours in 2023. In this episode, Merijn told us about the lessons he has taken from cycling into football, about how AZ have managed to outsmart the opposition and about their recent collaboration with Teamworks and Luke Bornn. We hope you enjoy this episode and if you do, please follow us via your preferred podcast provider. SHOW NOTES => 02:18: Big clubs in Holland have a budget 4 to 5x that of AZ. 03:30: Started at AZ in December 2024. Came in from cycling, where he was Sporting Director. Spent 10 years there.  05:08: How Team Visma were transformed from also-rans to winners of three Grand Tours in one season. Culture had been bad/ still had one of lowest budgets. 08:55: How they transformed the culture. "It is not logical to expect a group of people will work good together." 14:22: Bringing in influences from outside cycling and why. 17:51: Move into football with AZ. How it came about. 19:07: General Manager role - not one we hear about often in UK football. What does it involve? 21:54: What makes AZ special and even unique as a club? Average finish of 3.8 in the Eredivisie in last 10 years. 26:27: Was the transition from cycling to football difficult? Originally from Alkmaar, which helped. Relationship with Dave Brailsford and also Erik ten Hag, who invited him to watch training at Manchester United. 29:33: How club use data. Influence of Billy Beane and Luke Bornn. Team Visma used data to overcome one outstanding rival rider. Use of Teamworks Intelligence and how it has helped. "One of the ambitions is that in maybe five years we can win games because we understand the game better through data than any other team."  35:06: Big thing has been making data more accessible to the coaches at the club.  36:48: How AZ use Teamworks Intelligence. Big thing is merging event and tracking data. Previously the club had tried to develop their own model.  39:23: Using objective data to counter biases in decision-making. "For a lot of coaches it is about opinions or visions, not about objective information. It is very hard to progress if you don't have objective information." 42:25: How Team Visma used data to usurp a dominant rival rider. Taking this lesson into football. 45:35: What are the club's ambitions for the future?

Your brain isn't as rational as you think, and that blind spot can wreck your decision-making, relationships, and even your health. In this episode, you'll learn how to spot the hidden cognitive traps that even the smartest people fall for, and how to upgrade your thinking so you can perform better, live longer, and make choices that actually serve you. Watch the condensed video highlight version of this episode (and much more!) on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Steven Pinker, a world-renowned cognitive psychologist, Harvard professor, and bestselling author whose research reshaped how we understand language, bias, social norms, and rationality. Pinker's decades of scholarship make him a trusted guide to the mechanics of the mind and the behaviors that either elevate or derail human performance and longevity. Together they break down how the brain actually reasons, why smart people still fall for tribal thinking, what current AI gets wrong about human intelligence, and how “common knowledge” quietly governs cooperation, law, and civility. This is a masterclass in brain optimization through better thinking, built for people who care about biohacking, hacking mental models, neuroplasticity, and high-performance decision-making. You'll learn: • How to recognize and counter the “my-side bias,” even if you're highly intelligent • Why common knowledge creates and sustains social norms and coordination • The art of indirect speech and tact, and how to calibrate your words to reduce social risk • Simple upgrades that make video calls feel closer to real eye contact and why that boosts trust • What today's AI gets wrong about minds and why models hallucinate • Rational habits that work in the real world: steelmanning, probabilistic thinking, adversarial collaboration, and making bets as a tax on bad arguments • Why liberal democracy fits human nature better than autocracy and how norms erode or hold • How to rebuild face-to-face social skills in a screen-first culture to improve resilience and performance This is essential listening for fans of biohacking, brain optimization, human performance, neuroplasticity, and longevity who want clear, usable frameworks to think better and live better with Dave Asprey. Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind.

On this week's episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Neighbor Doug welcome Paula Pant (Afford Anything) and Jesse Cramer (Personal Finance for Long-Term Investors) to explore why even the “right” financial moves can sometimes lead you straight into a banana peel.

We'll Cover: Why your credit score might drop after paying off debt—and why that's not always bad news How “budget hacks” can turn into budget headaches The sneaky ways credit card rewards and government programs can backfire Why tracking the wrong measure can lead to the wrong results Practical steps to sidestep the unintended fallout from good decisions Questions to Ponder During the Episode What's the most surprising “side effect” you've experienced after making a smart money move?

In this week's episode of the Rich Habits Podcast, Robert Croak and Austin Hankwitz answer your questions!---

In this episode of PivotMe, April dives into one of the sneakiest ways we sabotage ourselves: saying yes after a string of no's. Our brains often trick us into believing we “deserve” a reward after sacrifice—even if that yes derails our goals. April shares how to recognize this moment of weakness, why it happens, and how to build the self-awareness needed to stay aligned with your bigger vision. She emphasizes the importance of being intentional in decision-making, ensuring that every yes or no moves you closer to the life and business you're building. What You'll Learn in This Episode: How your brain uses “rewards” to justify a yes after multiple no's. How to be intentional in decision-making and outsmart your brain. The power of saying the fourth no with the same energy as the first. Why awareness is the first step in stopping sabotage. Quote to Remember: “Your brain will try to trick you into a yes after sacrifice—but the true reward is staying aligned with your goals.” – April Key Takeaway: High performers don't just say no once—they say no consistently, even when their brain is screaming for an easy yes. That consistency is where the magic happens. ______________________________________

What if your “creative brain” feels like 42 browser tabs open—none playing music you like? Kimberley chats with Skye Waterson, founder of Unconventional Organisation, about why ADHD-style thinking is so common among entrepreneurs and designers. They dive into why traditional productivity advice often fails creative minds, and how understanding your brain (diagnosis or not) can help you finally get things done. Expect science-backed tips, relatable laughs, and real strategies for working with your brain, not against it—plus, why rewards like ice cream should come before the work. In this episode we learn: - ADHD strategies benefit everyone—especially creative entrepreneurs. - Start with a brain dump, then narrow down to what's truly urgent. - Reward yourself first to create momentum (yes, treats count). - Break big tasks into micro-steps with clear, easy instructions. - Use dopamine wisely—your playlist or workspace matters. - You're not lazy, your system might just be broken. - Give yourself permission to work differently—your brain's not wrong, it's wired for creativity.

In his dynamic message titled “Outsmarting the Opps,” Pastor Terrance Wilson took us to John 7:1–13, where Jesus navigates intense pressure, opposition, and misunderstanding—even from His own family. As the Festival of Tabernacles approached, Jesus' brothers urged Him to publicly prove Himself, but He chose divine timing over public approval. Pastor Terrance reminded us that sometimes the greatest form of strength is restraint, and real power is found in walking in purpose—not performance. Jesus shows us how to move with wisdom in the face of threats, criticism, and spiritual opposition, demonstrating that God's plan will always prevail—even when it's not public, popular, or fully understood. When you're on divine assignment, you don't have to prove yourself—you just have to move with strategy, trust, and obedience.

If you've ever felt like your go-to lure suddenly stopped working, or wondered why fish"disappear" on heavily pressured lakes, this episode is for you.Send us a message

The guys break down how to stop letting the opinions of strangers get in your head, why it's key to remember most people don't know you or your journey, and how to keep your confidence intact in a world full of noise.

He branded the Oscars. Designed the iconic Ready to Die album cover. Created film campaigns for Inglourious Basterds, West Side Story, Dune and more. In this episode, our founding editor Katy Cowan chats with creative director Kenny Gravillis, the East London-born designer who's helped shape the visual language of contemporary film. The founder of Gravillis Inc., Kenny shares how he went from designing panty shield ads to working at Def Jam by age 21, and later building a studio in LA that now works with the biggest names in Hollywood. He reflects on meeting Spielberg, working with Spike Lee, and why staying humble (and kind) has been his secret weapon. They also talk about the challenges of breaking into a closed industry, navigating the shift from music to film, and why AI won't replace the nuance of human-made art anytime soon. Oh, and the time Christoph Waltz thought he'd been cut from Inglourious Basterds because Kenny didn't give him a poster. This season is proudly sponsored by the School of Communication Arts.

If the legacy food giants won't evolve, Mason Dixie will do it for them – one honest, skillet-cooked meal at a time. When Ayeshah Abuelhiga founded Mason Dixie Foods in 2014, she set out to deliver what people are truly hungry for: clean, craveable comfort food made without compromise. No preservatives. No shortcuts. Just real ingredients and real flavor. Today, Mason Dixie offers a growing lineup of frozen biscuits, breakfast sandwiches, burritos, and fried chicken sandwiches – all made with fresh ingredients, real dairy, and no artificial ingredients, bleached flour or seed oils. The products are available in more than 6,000 stores across the country, including Whole Foods, Costco, Sprouts, Giant, Harris Teeter, and more. In this episode, Ayeshah shares how she's taking on the legacy CPG heavyweights by building a bold, next-generation frozen food brand. She dives into how Mason Dixie harnesses consumer insights, rigorous cost discipline and category whitespace to develop new products. She also breaks down how the brand is reshaping the definition of “natural” for modern shoppers, proving it's possible to scale with integrity, and lead with purpose, without ever compromising on what matters most. Show notes: 0:25: Ayeshah Abuelhiga, Founder & CEO, Mason Dixie Foods – Ayeshah and Ray chat about past conversations before the entrepreneur shares how operating outside traditional CPG hubs has allowed her Baltimore-based company to thrive with greater agility and efficiency, particularly in the wake of the pandemic. She reflects on Mason Dixie's buzzworthy Expo West appearance, where she dressed as Colonel Sanders to promote new products and offers a candid critique of the natural foods industry. The conversation delves into the brand's innovation strategy, including its expansion into sandwiches and burritos, and how the latter was developed to create a superior flavor and texture to existing products. Ayeshah explains how Mason Dixie benchmarks acceptable price points and only moves forward with products that can achieve cost efficiency through scale and criticizes large conglomerates like Tyson for their inefficient use of resources, while remaining open to partnerships that could help scale clean-label food. Beyond business, Ayeshah talks about how she finds purpose in the creative freedom of entrepreneurship and in mentoring underrepresented communities through nonprofit work.

On The Clay Edwards Show, I sat down with former Mississippi House Speaker Philip Gunn, who shared a sharp anecdote about outmaneuvering Democratic tactics in the legislature. Philip explained how Democrats, frustrated during a recent special session ending May 29, 2025, invoked an 1894 constitutional rule to force word-for-word bill readings—essentially a filibuster to stall proceedings until 2 a.m. This was a protest, likely over budget priorities, as Democrats felt sidelined by Republican spending choices. Philip recounted how, during his tenure as Speaker from 2012 to 2024, Democrats often used this tactic to slow things down when they were in the minority. To counter it, he cranked up the speed on a computer program used to read bills, dubbed the “demon chipmunk” by critics, making the readings comically fast and incomprehensible. This sparked a 2016 lawsuit from Rep. Jay Hughes, D-Oxford, claiming it violated the Constitution's spirit, but the Mississippi Supreme Court ruled 7-2 in Philip's favor in 2017, citing legislative autonomy. He noted a 2013-2014 instance where a two-and-a-half-hour reading of a charter school bill backfired on Democrats, giving him time to rally absent Republicans for a winning vote. Broadcasting from Flora, I laughed with Philip over his clever workaround, highlighting his savvy leadership in navigating Mississippi's political trenches.
