In this episode of Nashville Restaurant Radio, I sit down with Stephanie Styll, owner of Killjoy, for an honest and thoughtful conversation about alcohol, behavior, and why more people are choosing to step away from drinking.Stephanie and I both bring a unique perspective to this conversation — I've been alcohol-free for over six years, and Stephanie for five. That lived experience allows us to dig deeper into the why behind shifting drinking habits, beyond trends or challenges like Dry January.We talk about the science and psychology of drinking, how alcohol affects mood, sleep, anxiety, and performance, and why more people are re-evaluating their relationship with it. We also explore how these changes are showing up in restaurants and bars, and what it means for hospitality operators who want to meet guests where they are.
Jason Lemkin is the founder of SaaStr, the world's largest community for software founders, and a veteran SaaS investor who has deployed over $200 million into B2B startups. After his last salesperson quit, Jason made a radical decision: replace his entire go-to-market team with AI agents. What started as an experiment has transformed into a new operating model, where 20 AI agents managed by just 1.2 humans now do the work previously handled by a team of 10 SDRs and AEs. In this conversation, Jason shares his hands-on experience implementing AI to run his sales org, including what works, what doesn't, and how the GTM landscape is quickly being transformed.We discuss:1. How AI is fundamentally changing the sales function2. Why most SDRs and BDRs will be “extinct” within a year3. What Jason is observing across his portfolio about AI adoption in GTM4. How to become “hyper-employable” in the age of AI5. The specific AI tools and tactics he's using that have been working best6. Practical frameworks for integrating AI into your sales motion without losing what works7.

How can brands consistently find partners that truly align with their operations and growth goals? For Matt Hertz, a seasoned e-commerce operator and logistics strategist, the key lies in intentional matchmaking driven by data, specialization, and clarity.

Today Ellie discussed updates discussing how her daughter became confused in school and suddenly wanted to be called by a "male" name. An inept caseworker, Attorney Annika Stokes, GAL Michael Horan and Judge Molly Bigelow in Shasta California have an agenda of their own: to put Ellie's daughter in foster care and eventually adopt her out. Ellie still doesn't know if her daughter was given hormones or other psychiatric medications. At present her daughter is residing in foster care, living with five other children and is sharing a room with a male. Ellie discussed the corruption in the courts and the immigrant component. Ellie and her family came to the U.S. LEGALLY and because of their accent, and culture are being treated like garbage. Her family's Due Process Rights have been violated for so long. Ellie also discussed getting her story out to other media outlets.To Reach Ellie: shastaforart@gmail.com, on X: https://x.com/Ellieforpa22611, Substack: https://honeybadgerukrainian.substack.com/(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

Four Big Lessons from 2025 for Cash-Based PT Owners In this year-end episode of the PT Entrepreneur Podcast, Dr. Danny Matta shares the four biggest lessons he learned in 2025. From a small revenue dip at PT Biz to the rise of corporate cash clinics, the longevity wave, and why happiness cannot be tied to "winning," Danny breaks down what actually matters for clinic owners who want a sustainable, meaningful business and life. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why PT Biz saw its first year-over-year revenue decline and what actually caused it The danger of chasing brand polish while neglecting core sales and marketing fundamentals Why corporate and private-equity backed cash and hybrid clinics are coming fast How to decide if you should stay small and lifestyle-based or grow and compete Why "health is wealth" is both a mission and a major business opportunity How to think about long-term performance, longevity, and lifetime value in your clinic Why happiness cannot be tied only to hitting revenue goals or "winning" in business How gratitude, perspective, and boundaries at home change how you lead at work Lesson 1: The Year Revenue Went Backwards For the first time outside of COVID shutdowns, PT Biz saw a year-over-year decline in top-line revenue. It was not a crash, but it was the first dip in an otherwise steady climb. Going into 2025, the team made a big bet: double down on brand and visibility. That meant more clinic tours, more travel, more polished content, stronger YouTube presence, and a much more professional public-facing brand. The upside: the brand looks sharper, more consistent, and more aligned with what PT Biz actually delivers. The downside: attention and effort shifted away from core sales and marketing fundamentals that had been driving client acquisition for years. The brand got better. The KPIs that actually bring in new owners slipped. The lesson: do not starve the fundamentals to fund a big bet. Brand polish is great, but not at the expense of the boring systems that quietly keep your pipeline full. Momentum is effort multiplied by accuracy, and this year the effort was high, but the target was slightly off. Lesson 2: Corporate Cash Clinics Are Coming Regional cash and hybrid groups are already growing in multiple markets. They have strong brands, smart operators, and they are learning how to scale performance-based services across locations. As interest rates fall and borrowing becomes cheaper, larger groups and backers are going to look at cash-based PT the same way they looked at in-network PT years ago: fragmented, profitable, and ripe for consolidation. That creates a fork in the road for small clinic owners: Stay small, stay lifestyle: Keep a lean, owner-operated practice, accept your capacity ceiling, and focus on doing great work with a small team. Grow and compete: Commit to becoming a true business owner, not just a great clinician. That means learning hiring, leadership, cash flow, marketing beyond yourself, and building a place where people want to work long term. Either path can be a win. But "average" business skills will not cut it in crowded markets where well-funded competitors offer better recruiting, benefits, and systems. Lesson 3: Health Is Wealth (and Your Biggest Opportunity) There is a cultural shift happening around health and longevity. People are listening to three-hour podcasts on sleep, VO2 max, and zone 2 training. Functional medicine clinics are everywhere. High-end "longevity programs" are popping up inside luxury gyms. For movement-based, performance-focused cash practices, this is a massive opportunity. Your patients no longer just want to get out of pain. They want to stay strong, independent, and capable for as long as possible. They are looking for a guide who can help them preserve function, strength, and energy for decades, not weeks. This is where you can step in as the long-term quarterback of their health and performance. That might include: Strength and mobility programming designed for longevity Clear testing and reassessment around performance and function Coaching on sleep, recovery, lifestyle, and training hygiene Long-term continuity options and proactive care plans Done right, this dramatically increases lifetime value per client and creates deeper, more rewarding clinical relationships that match why you went into this profession to begin with. Lesson 4: Happiness Is Not Tied to "Winning" For many high achievers, revenue is the scoreboard. Hit the goal and you feel like a winner. Miss it and you feel like a loser. In past years, missing a big target would have poisoned Danny's entire year and bled into family life at home. This year, even with a small revenue decline, he is as content as he has ever been. The difference is perspective. When you zoom out, the "loss" on the scoreboard sits next to: Rebuilt personal health after knee surgery and a return to the activities he loves A stronger marriage built over nearly two decades together Healthy, growing kids who are ambitious, kind, and thriving A real sense of community and friendships at home The lesson: your mood and your identity cannot be chained to one metric inside your business. You can care deeply about your goals, push hard, and still refuse to let a missed target turn you into a miserable person for the people you love. Gratitude is not a fluffy quote. It is a practical tool. When business feels heavy, you can actively ask: what went well this year, what am I proud of, and what in my life would I never trade for a slightly bigger number on a spreadsheet? Action Steps for Clinic Owners Review the year honestly: where did effort get misdirected away from proven fundamentals? Decide which race you are running: lifestyle solo practice or growth business that competes with bigger players. Start building a true long-term health and longevity offer for your best-fit patients. Schedule time to reflect on what went right, what you learned, and what you are grateful for outside of money. Ready for Help With Your Next Step?

Matt Barnes is the Founder and Owner of The Leisure Club (@leisureclub.co) here in Columbus, Ohio. From knowing he always had a passion for the arts, community and entertainment, the journey Matt takes on us in this episode ventures from; an original interest in performance and theater, to obtaining a business degree as a safety plan, living in 27 different places before he was 30, an experiential art project turning into a full on creative agency, to eventually learning it was a struggle to work for others and deciding to go out on his own. In all of that, the concept of "The Leisure Club" third space was taking shape. From a small rented studio space to hangout with friends, to a physical venue space where others can bring their own commuities together. We cover it all! This is indeed a great conversation with Matt as we also talk about navigating the world at large as an artist, the woes of freelance and client culture, learning the power of saying "no" and setting boundaries as a creative, the ups and downs of running a business, and why third places matter!

From college athlete to MVP Cleaners, Jaylon has shown his drive to out work those around him, excelling at every turn. Listen to his story to see how he became successful early in life.
From the outside, everything looks fine. The bar is open, people are coming in, and the work gets done. But underneath it, there's a quiet heaviness from long days, nonstop decisions, and pressure that never fully lifts.That weight isn't caused by one big mistake. It builds over time through delayed decisions, avoided numbers, and sticking with habits that feel comfortable, even when they stop working.In this episode, I step away from tactics and reflect on the past year. I talk honestly about gratitude, mindset, and what I've learned about the growing gap between reactive and intentional bar owners.My goal is clarity. Clarity around what actually matters, what's draining energy, and what deserves attention next so moving forward feels more focused, steady, and intentional.

Slam the Gavel welcomes Heather Bendl and Pete Arnold to the podcast. Heather was last on Season 5, Episode 262. Today Heather is currently juggling active appeals in both Florida and Illinois, effectively schooling the courts on why they can't just ignore the rulebook, specifically regarding jurisdiction and the UCCJEA. She is challenging a legal nightmare where Florida is trying to enforce a Void Ab Initio Illinois order that was issued without notice and without authority. Heather is asking the higher courts to remind the lower courts that geography and Due Process definitely matter. Heather's fiancé, Pete Arnold joins her fight as the strategist turning mountains of legal chaos into a clear roadmap for accountability. Together, they aren't just fighting Heather's battle but exposing a systemic crisis where evidence is ignored and parents are silenced.

Running a solo practice doesn't mean you have to do everything alone. In this episode, I break down how to get support in your business before you're ready to hire a full-time employee. If you've been feeling stretched thin, unsure what to delegate, or isolated as a solo practice owner, this conversation is for you.You'll learn how to build support strategically and affordably so you can protect your time, energy, and sanity while still growing your practice. We cover how to recognize the “Not Yet CEO” trap that keeps solo owners stuck, what to delegate first in a cash-based PT practice, and affordable support options like virtual assistants and contractors. We also talk about why community and coaching matter for burnout prevention and long-term sustainability.You don't need a massive team to feel supported. You just need the right help at the right time.If you're ready to build a sustainable practice with real support, join us inside DPT to CEO, our business coaching program for physical therapists.

We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas last week, and looks ahead with hope for improved conditions for the new year. To get in right frame of mind, what better than to drop back into this special edition around Christmastime 2022, when we drop in on quite an experience for Overdrive Executive Editor Alex Lockie out at the Danbury, Connecticut, stop on the Wreaths Across America convoy tour from Maine down to Arlington National Cemetery for the big central wreath-laying event. As with this year's Wreaths event, it was but one among thousands around the country at veterans' cemeteries designed to pay respect to those who've served the nation. Lockie there in 2022 met Hampton Roads Moving and Storage owner-operator Steven Meyer and his 1998 Freightliner FLD, pulling a custom wrapped Kentucky trailer of his own design and dedicated to honoring distinct individuals. Together, through Meyer's narration their histories chart a story of achievement, of sacrifice, and ultimately of elemental things about human nature. For both men in the moment, the story delivers a measure of hope for the future of humanity. Read Lockie's 2022 reporting from the event via this link: https://www.overdriveonline.com/channel-19/article/15304350/what-wreaths-across-america-means-to-trucking-and-all-of-us

Illinois gun law has evolved through confusion, court battles, and the lived experiences of everyday people simply trying to travel safely with their firearms. In this episode of On the Mic with Mike, Instructor Mike breaks down two landmark cases — People v. Diggins and People v. McDade — that every responsible gun owner needs to understand.From whether a center console counts as a “case,” to whether your gun case needs to be locked, these decisions shaped the way Illinois interprets safe firearm transport. And if you're a FOID card holder, a concealed carrier, a security officer, or someone who just wants to stay on the right side of the law, this is essential training.Instructor Mike cuts through the legal jargon and gives you clear, real-world guidance: • ✔️ What Diggins really decided about vehicle consoles • ✔️ Why McDade changed the meaning of “enclosed” forever • ✔️ The difference between “closed” and “locked” • ✔️ How these cases protect responsible gun owners • ✔️ How people get arrested because no one ever trained themUnderstanding the law is part of being a responsible firearm owner — and too many people are under-trained, not criminal. This episode keeps you informed, empowered, and prepared.This is not legal theory. This is practical knowledge that keeps you free.“This is Instructor Mike — and you've been trained.”
Wil peaks with Enga Stanfield, co-owner of multiple Mattenga's Pizzeria in San Antonio and Head of Community at Owner.com. Enga, an Iranian-born former engineer with no prior restaurant experience, shares how she and her husband Matt transitioned from engineering to restaurant ownership in 2014 by purchasing a struggling pizzeria, initially losing significant money due to inexperience. Through relentless grassroots marketing, obsessive cost control, data-driven location selection, and frugal self-funded growth, they turned the business around, expanded to multiple locations, achieved consistent strong sales growth, and built a profitable family-oriented operation that prioritizes community giving, strong systems, and work-life balance while preparing for potential franchising.10 Takeaways No experience required, but commitment is essential: Enga and Matt had zero restaurant or business background yet succeeded through sheer passion, grit, and a willingness to learn from expensive mistakes. Obscurity is the biggest enemy: The real problem isn't perfect recipes or discounts, it's getting known. Aggressive, consistent marketing (guerrilla tactics, drop-offs, parades, costumes) is the owner's primary job. Babysit numbers, not people: Obsess over P&L, labor percentages, food costs, and sales forecasting—small percentage improvements on large volumes create massive profit impact. Hustle beats excuses: External factors (bad location, competition like Chick-fil-A) are irrelevant; successful owners take full responsibility and aggressively pursue customers. Give to receive: Donating hundreds of pizzas monthly, supporting schools with spirit nights, and community involvement builds loyalty and drives long-term growth. Location math matters: Use free tools like USPS Every Door Direct Mail to analyze household density, income levels, and demographics to ensure a site can support target sales and profit margins. Break growth into simple math: Reverse-engineer sales goals into daily orders needed, then create targeted marketing plans to acquire and retain those customers. Build systems and people, not just rockstars: Strong operational systems and deliberate team development allow scalability. Doing $15/hour tasks yourself prevents building a real business. Negotiate everything: Leases, vendor prices, contracts: always ask, build in exit protections, and never sign desperate deals. Walking away power is crucial. Profitability enables generosity: Running a tight, systematic, profitable operation allows you to pay people well, give back to the community, and maintain a thriving family life.
Grant Broggi, Jeff Buege, and Tres Gottlich break down three things every man is thinking about right now:• How to build a real home gym without wasting money• Why college football fans are emotionally exhausted (Texas A&M included)• And the unbelievable true story of the sprinter van that wasn't supposed to be opened… but was.Grant lays out the bare-bones home gym setup that actually gets you strong — no fluff, no gimmicks, no influencer nonsense. If you've ever thought about building a garage gym, this is the exact blueprint.The crew also reacts to the College Football Playoff chaos, SEC heartbreak, and the reality of what an “11-win season” really means in modern college football.And somewhere in between… a completely innocent church van becomes the scene of a full-scale accidental raid.Podcast Hosts:Grant Broggi: Marine Veteran, Owner of The Strength Co. and Starting Strength Coach.Jeff Buege: Marine Veteran, Outdoorsman, Football Fan and LifterTres Gottlich: Marine Veteran, Texan, Fisherman, Crazy College Football Fan and LifterJoin the Slack and Use code OKAY:https://buy.stripe.com/dR6dT4aDcfuBdyw5ksCheck out BW Tax: https://www.bwtaxllc.comBUY A FOOTBALL HELMET: https://www.greengridiron.com/?ref=thestrengthcoTimestamps: 00:00 - Intro 11:21 - Staff Brief23:07 - Outlying Stations28:28 - Turkey Pull Winners30:13 - Insane Van Story39:52 - iPhone Update Issues43:28 - Bare Bones Home Gym Essentials57:21 - College Football Madness01:11:44 - Tres' Picks Of The Week01:33:23 - Dan vs Daniel01:39:20 - Saved Rounds

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for December 24th Publish Date: December 24th Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Wednesday, December 24th and Happy Birthday to Howard Hughes I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Atlanta's Christmas Day forecast sees temperatures near record high Vegan Bakery opens in East Cobb Marietta History Center revisits the Square’s Christmas Past All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: INGLES 9 STORY 1: Atlanta's Christmas Day forecast sees temperatures near record high It’s not exactly sweater weather, folks—Christmas in Atlanta is shaping up to feel more like a spring fling. Highs are expected to hit the low to mid-70s, putting this year in the running for one of the warmest Christmas Days on record. The all-time high? A toasty 75 degrees back in 2015. Rain? Not likely. Just sunshine, warmth, and maybe a little disbelief. STORY 2: Vegan Bakery opens in East Cobb Tropicups, a vibrant new vegan bakery, officially opened its doors on Saturday, bringing cupcakes, cakes, and a whole lot of heart to 2525 Shallowford Road. Owner and baker Renée de Gannes Penn started Tropicups as a home bakery, whipping up treats for friends and family after going vegan a few years ago. Now, with her first storefront, she’s serving up cupcakes, brownies, lemon-blueberry squares, and even vegan soft-serve ice cream. Custom orders? Yep, she’s got those too. The name “Tropicups” is a nod to her Trinidadian roots—“tropical” meets “cupcakes.” But her treats aren’t just for vegans. “People with dairy, egg, or gluten allergies love them too,” she said, though she notes the bakery isn’t allergy-certified. De Gannes Penn hopes Tropicups becomes a community hub. “I’m just so excited to share this with everyone,” she said. STORY 3: Marietta History Center revisits the Square’s Christmas Past The Marietta History Center and Parks and Rec are taking a stroll down memory lane—Christmas tree style. Every year, Glover Park gets its holiday glow-up with a big, beautiful tree, and now the history center is celebrating that tradition by sharing photos of past displays. The collection spans from 1987 to 2001, showcasing everything from classic decorations to quirky, playful themes. “These trees have been the heart of Marietta Square’s holiday season for decades,” the museum shared on social media. “We’re thrilled to keep their stories safe—no dusting required!” We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info. We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 9 STORY 4: Congregation Ner Tamid celebrates 10th annual Marietta Square Menorah lighting Marietta Square buzzed Saturday night—families, friends, officials, all huddled together under the glow of the menorah for Congregation Ner Tamid’s 10th annual Hanukkah celebration. The air smelled like latkes and fried donuts, kids clutching raffle tickets, hoping for gift cards from local shops. Rabbi Joseph Prass, marking a decade with the synagogue, called up children to light the candles, weaving the story of Hanukkah into the night. “Freedom,” he said, “is worth celebrating—publicly, boldly.” The crowd nodded, some teary-eyed. After all, safety isn’t guaranteed everywhere. Prass reflected on recent tragedies, grateful for this moment of peace. Chocolate coins flew, kids laughed, and the night ended with blessings sung loud enough to echo. STORY 5: Georgia Power wins approval for massive expansion Chaos. That’s the only word for it. Last week, Georgia Power got the green light—unanimously, no less—from state regulators to build five gas plants, a move critics say could cost $60 billion. Sixty. Billion. Dollars. That’s five Hoover Dams’ worth of power, and nearly a 50% boost in capacity. Why? Supposedly, tech giants need it for their AI and server farms. But here’s the kicker: the numbers? Secret. Opponents begged for transparency—“show your work,” they said. Nope. Denied. The vote? Rushed, just weeks before two new Democratic commissioners take office. Break: STORY 6: Atlanta named best US city for Christmas in 2025 by WalletHub Turns out, Atlanta’s the place to be for Christmas this year. WalletHub just crowned it the best city in the U.S. to celebrate the holidays in 2025. Why? Well, it’s not just the lights or the shopping (though there’s plenty of that). Atlantans are apparently big on giving—clothing drives, online donations, you name it. Generosity, it seems, is kind of our thing. San Francisco came in second (candy shops galore), Seattle third (tree farms and bakeries, anyone?). Meanwhile, Stockton? Dead last. But hey, as one expert put it: the best holiday moments? They don’t cost a dime. STORY 7: Georgia prepares for Sugar Bowl rematch as Ole Miss promises a better fight Here we go again. Georgia vs. Ole Miss, round two—this time in the Sugar Bowl. The Bulldogs took the first matchup back in October, a wild 43-35 shootout in Athens, but Ole Miss? They’re not exactly rolling over. A lot’s changed since then. Lane Kiffin’s out, Pete Golding’s in, and Ole Miss just steamrolled Tulane. Oh, and they’ve got a new QB, Trinidad Chambliss, who’s been proving doubters wrong all season. Revenge? Maybe. Opportunity? Definitely. Buckle up. We’ll have closing comments after this. Break: INGLES 9 Signoff- Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.
