Two centuries ago, a desperate young servant girl buried a piece of amber in the frozen Nova Scotia earth and summoned something with rows of gleaming teeth and an ungodly stench. Every Christmas Eve since, it returns to collect its payment — in flesh.STORY AND MUSIC CREDITS/SOURCES…“Mary Culhane and the Dead Man”: http://bit.ly/2PbAYPa“The Stench of Christmas” by Lea Story: https://amzn.to/3487uWMAll music used with permission of the artists.

Ever feel like your best service is eating your profits? We dig into the quiet ways pool pros lose time and money—free return visits, marathon storm cleanups, and “courtesy” chemicals—and share practical scripts and policies that keep clients happy while protecting your margins. The core idea is simple: set fair expectations, price for real effort, and stop projecting your standards onto customers who just want the pool blue, clean, and running.We start by reframing the customer mindset and why obsessing over perfection can backfire across a full route. Then we get tactical. You'll hear the courtesy-invoice method that ends free midweek trips, the go/no-go rules for locked gates and blocked access, and the 25-minute time cap that saves your day after windstorms or messy tree work. We also walk through rate tiers for heavy-debris accounts, clear communication for multi-visit recoveries, and straightforward language that resets expectations without friction.Chemicals and equipment maintenance get their own spotlight. Learn when to pass through shock and algaecide for high-use pools, how to leave cal hypo or liquid chlorine onsite and bill retail, and why it's often smarter than raising monthly rates. We also break down filter cleaning fees for DE and quad-cartridge systems, the pros and cons of charging for salt cell cleanings, and how local norms influence your model. By the end, you'll have a clean list of policies, prices, and scripts that turn great service into a sustainable business.• why most clients think “blue and fine” is enough• return visit rules and courtesy invoice tactics• handling locked gates and blocked access• time caps after windstorms and tree work• route health vs spotless one-stop cleanups• tiered pricing for heavy debris pools• passing through shock, algaecide, and tablets• when to charge for filter and salt cell cleaning• area norms and how to communicate fees• simple scripts that retrain client expectationsSend us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

This is the full conversation I had with Will Smith and Niklas James on the Acquiring Minds podcast in April of 2025. We broke down how I bought Somewhere.com, how I run my real estate private equity firm, and how I leverage offshore talent to scale revenue while saving costs. We discussed how I think about building teams, why sales is the foundation of all businesses, and why buying a company isn't a shortcut, it's a challenge most people aren't ready for.If you're thinking about buying a business, this episode will show you the side of acquisitions people rarely talk about.

In this episode, Alex reads his essay, “Tend Your Garden, But Don't Forget the Gate,” originally published on his Substack, All The Fits That's News. The piece explores the limits of the old Stoic maxim, “Don't complain, don't explain,” and how silence, when taken too far, becomes a form of avoidance rather than strength.Alex reflects on a difficult period in his professional life, when keeping everything bottled up nearly broke him. He discusses the value of choosing the right people to confide in, why venting is not weakness, and how discernment, not emotional shutdown, was the point the Stoics were getting at all along.10 Years.

You've heard it before: listen twice as much as you speak. Two ears, one mouth. Makes sense, right? But I'm taking that advice to a whole different level. Because most people are so busy listening to everyone else — to Google, to AI, to social media, to the noise — that they've stopped listening to themselves. They can't move forward without social approval. They don't trust their own wisdom. They've lost permission to listen to what their heart is saying. I introduce the concept of "going dark" — choosing to listen to others less and listen to yourself more. Not ignoring the world, but giving yourself space to think, to ponder, to ask "what would I do?" If you're feeling stuck or down, it's probably because you haven't stopped to listen to yourself. This episode changes that. Featured Story I've got the gift of gab. Always have. As a kid, I was energetic, enthusiastic, excitable. My mouth got me into lots of problems. Then I learned to use it to get myself out of those problems too. But somewhere along the way, smart people taught me to listen twice as much as I speak. When I got into coaching, I became a really good listener. Kept my mouth shut. Paid attention. Then I learned something else. I needed to listen to myself too. To my own wisdom. To what my heart was telling me. I started using what I call "Scott logic." Asking "what would Scott do?" Not in an arrogant way, but as an accumulation of all the wisdom I've gathered over the years. That's when everything changed. Important Points You have two ears and one mouth for a reason, but most people listen to everyone else so much they've stopped listening to themselves. Going dark means giving yourself space to listen to your own wisdom twice as much as you listen to others around you. When you stop listening to what your heart is telling you, that's usually when you start feeling stuck or down in life. Memorable Quotes "Going dark means life is brighter. It means good stuff is about to happen." "We've lost permission to listen to ourselves and to do for ourselves. It's like we can't move forward without social approval of those around us." "If I didn't absolutely know where I stood, I didn't know what my values were and what was really important to me, I had no business talking to anybody else." Scott's Three-Step Approach Shut your mouth and pay attention to the world. Listen to others, be caring, interact — but don't just talk to fill the space. Listen to yourself twice as much as anyone else. Take time to think, ponder, and ask yourself what you really believe about the situation. Know where you stand before speaking. Get clear on your values and what's important to you, then operate from that place.

You read that right: the Baltimore Orioles opened up their wallet for once. We come back from our stints on IR to watch the hot stove, put a bow on the Shepherd football season, check in on the NBA season, and catch up on the NFL (mostly complaining about the Ravens).
Leaders who come from their inspired Calling often feel drained, tired, and worn out. They're doing BIG Work every day, so it kind of makes sense… right? NO, wait! Mellissa has noticed something powerful: if it's draining you, it means there's a mismatch. Maybe your focus needs to be updated. Maybe you never found the perfect-fit offering. Maybe your audience isn't quite right. We see it all the time with the intuitive leaders we serve, when they adjust what they offer, to whom, and how, everything changes. Suddenly they feel energized by their work, their impact grows, and their revenue increases… even as they start doing LESS. Just because you're magically gifted, empathic, or intuitive doesn't mean you shouldn't be strategic with your magic. Your gifts can create more results than "normies" ever could. In This Episode, You'll Learn: ✅ Why sensitive, empathic leaders often burn out ✅ How to work in deeper alignment so your work energizes you ✅ Why intuitive offerings shouldn't be priced by the hour ✅ The mindset shift that allows empaths to receive higher fees ✅ How pricing impacts client results (more than you think) More Resources:

He's also the author of Digital Marketing and SEO for Functional Medicine Practices and a sought-after voice in the space, having appeared on shows like The Functional Medicine Nurse and The Junto.Andrew brings much-needed clarity to an industry where most practitioners didn't go to med school to become marketers. From reviews to rankings to regulations, he breaks down what actually works — without the hype, the “30 patients in 30 days” promises, or the tech overwhelm.We cover:Why functional and integrative medicine is a uniquely challenging niche to marketThe trust gap: why patients need more time, proof, and education before saying “yes”How to ask for reviews without feeling slimy — and what to say word-for-wordWhy Google reviews matter more than you think (for both humans and SEO)The 3 pillars of SEO: technical, content, and local — and how clinics often miss 2 of themA simple, free test (PageSpeed Insights) to see what Google really thinks of your siteHow to structure “content silos” so your blogs lift your whole site, not just one postUsing blogs that nobody reads (on purpose!) to improve rankings across your entire siteHow to combine AI with human stories so Google doesn't treat your content like generic fluffAEO (Answer Engine Optimization) and what tools like ChatGPT mean for local clinicsOptimizing your Google Business Profile: Q&A, updates, geotagged photos, and responsesHow to market “sensitive” services like peptides, PRP, and holistic cancer care without getting flaggedThe “trifecta” of digital marketing: SEO, Google Ads, and Facebook/Instagram ads working togetherReal case studies: from barely-any-patients to consistently closing high-ticket programsWhy mindset, desperation, and unrealistic timelines can quietly sabotage your marketing
Recently, a planned terrorist attack against LGBTQ clubs was apparently thwarted. Authorities say young men from the Dearborn, Michigan area had practiced and stockpiled weapons for the attack, inspired by the Islamic State. The story was quickly buried, but it speaks to a strange shift in American politics and culture. In recent years, LGBTQ+ groups have become mouthpieces for lies put out by Islamist groups like Hamas. They do this while claiming “solidarity.” But at the same time, U.S. Muslims are pulling further away from stances crucial to LGBTQ+ organizations. The latest survey shows support for same-sex marriage has plummeted among Muslim Americans, while growing among just about everyone else. Today, Josh explains how the media is fueling this shift, and how LGBTQ+ groups are risking the end of same-sex marriage. He takes you to a city in which the nation's first all Muslim city council banned Pride flags. (These aren't “strange bedfellows,” since only one side seems to believe they're bedfellows at all.) Plus, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is going after the media, ranting about anonymous sources. And while anonymity is overused and misused in the media, the Trump administration is in no position to complain. Josh explains.

“Ya verás cuando tengas mi edad.” “La vida es muy difícil.” “Vives en un mundo de fantasía.” “Eso es imposible hay que ser realista.” Cada una de esas frases es una semilla que mata una posibilidad. Así comienza la domesticación del alma. Nos entrenan para describir el mundo, no para sentirlo, para analizar la vida, no para vivirla. En un mundo que quiere convertirnos en piezas idénticas, la curiosidad es la última forma de libertad. Seguir lo que te llama no te aleja del camino, te devuelve a él, el alma humana no está hecha para sostener rutinas vacías. Jugar es la forma más pura de conocer, y los que siguen jugando, incluso cuando todos los demás ya se han puesto serios, son los que nos recuerdan por qué merece la pena vivir.

In this fast-paced, raw, and incredibly actionable LashCon 2025 coaching session, Sheila Bella sits down with a beauty entrepreneur who's struggling to grow her trainer kit business — and in under 20 minutes, Sheila completely restructures her visibility and sales strategy. If you've ever wondered why your product, kit, or training isn't taking off even though it's great, this episode will be a wake-up call. Sheila breaks down the exact reason most beauty businesses stay stuck: they're relying solely on word of mouth and not building a digital ecosystem that works on autopilot. You'll hear Sheila walk this business owner through a clear, simple two-part formula: 1. Get seen — visibility through content & ads 2. Get chosen — conversion through trust-building systems This episode is a must-listen for lash trainers, PMU educators, product creators, or anyone wanting consistent sales without burning out. ⭐ 5 Key Points From the Episode 1. Visibility Can't Rely on Word of Mouth Alone Sheila explains that if you want consistent, predictable growth, word of mouth is not enough. You need digital visibility that runs 24/7. 2. There Are Only Two Content Types: Organic & Paid Organic content builds trust. Paid content (ads) builds reach. Both are needed if you want trainers to see your kit as an option. 3. Trainers Only Choose Brands They See Repeatedly Visibility → familiarity → trust → sales. Your kits won't sell if trainers never see them online. 4. Automation Is the Only Way to Scale Without Burnout Sheila walks her through creating automated sales funnels, email sequences, DMs, and follow-up systems so she can grow her brand while raising her kids. 5. Being Seen Gets You Considered — But Being Chosen Requires Conversations Once people see your ads and content, what converts them is the messaging, follow-up, and nurturing process behind the scenes.

Randy covers the Marquis vendor breach that exposed data across more than 74 banks and credit unions and highlights the ongoing weakness in third-party risk. Andre examines the FinCEN report showing over 2 billion in ransomware payments last year and reveals how organized these criminal groups have become. Bryan closes with a deep dive into the US Treasury's decade long analysis of 4.5 billion in ransom payments, showing how ransomware has grown into an economy that rivals legitimate global businesses. This is essential insight for business leaders, MSPs, and IT professionals who want to understand what is really driving the surge in cybercrime.
Nick Lamagna and I sat down to talk about what really happens when you're in the trenches, when the deals are falling apart, the pressure's on, and you're questioning everything.

Motörhead - Ace of Spades: The Bar Band That Redefined Metal (Whether They Liked It Or Not)What happens when you salvage a beaten‑up classic from the graveyard? You discover why Motörhead's Ace of Spades remains one of the most influential rock albums of all time—even if Lemmy himself refused to call it metal.Recorded in six weeks during the summer of 1980 and unleashed that October, Ace of Spades is 36 minutes of raw, boogie‑infused rock and roll cranked up to 11. On this episode of Dig Me Out: 80s Metal, hosts Jason Ziad, Tim Minneci, and Chip Midnight resurrect this second‑chance poll winner to explore why this album sounds like nothing else—and why that matters.The classic lineup of Lemmy Kilmister, “Fast” Eddie Clarke, and Phil “Philthy Animal” Taylor weren't trying to invent metal. They were channeling Chuck Berry, ZZ Top, and Thin Lizzy through a blown amp, adding a danceable swing that inspired everyone from Metallica and Slayer to The Hellacopters and New Bomb Turks. This is the sound of a band that knew exactly what they did well and executed it with surgical precision—even when they got sick of playing “Ace of Spades” every night.If you love early Van Halen, AC/DC, the Ramones, or the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, this episode is for you. We break down how Lemmy's voice became the second guitar, why Eddie Clarke's playing is criminally underrated, and what it means when an album charts everywhere from Sweden to Greece but barely makes a dent in the U.S.Episode Highlights00:00 – Intro: Why this listener‑suggested album almost didn't happen01:38 – The “second chance poll” rescue mission and how Testament won the first round05:42 – Chip's legendary three‑question interview with Lemmy (spoiler: he left to “freshen his drink”)10:09 – Album history: recorded August–September 1980, produced by Vic Maile (Hendrix, Zeppelin, Clapton)14:25 – Lemmy's time in Hawkwind, The Damned, and as Jimi Hendrix's roadie17:29 – (We Are) The Road Crew – Why Lemmy's tribute to roadies still makes crew members cry18:20 – The “Ace of Spades” legend: Why Lemmy sang “eight of spades” for years and nobody noticed19:02 – What Works: Jay breaks down the 70s swing, boogie‑rock energy, and danceable aggression25:14 – Fast and Loose – The ZZ Top‑meets‑Motörhead shuffle that proves this is rock and roll27:07 – How Motörhead influenced thrash, punk, and 90s action rock (Hellacopters, New Bomb Turks)31:54 – The Chase Is Better Than the Catch – The Van Halen‑inspired riff that almost wasn't34:18 – Eddie Clarke's guitar genius: Why “Fast” Eddie is the secret weapon of this album37:58 – What Doesn't Work: Aged lyrics, formulaic moments, and why Lemmy's voice is an acquired taste42:34 – Why fade‑outs are the album's worst decision48:53 – Final Verdicts: Worthy Album, Better EP, or Decent Single?55:37 – Gavin Reed gets credit for suggesting this album (and arguing with Jay about whether it's metal)Keep the Conversation GoingThis album came back from the dead because a listener like you suggested it.
