The Coming Wave: Why Cash PT Is Headed Toward National Consolidation In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down a bold prediction for the next decade of cash-based physical therapy: the rise of the first nationwide cash PT brand. He explains why the market is primed for massive consolidation, how well-funded companies will change the competitive landscape, and what independent PTs must do now to protect their clinics and stay ahead. Quick Ask If this episode helps you think strategically about your business, share it with another clinician who needs to hear it—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare it. Let's help more PTs build resilient, future-proof practices. Episode Summary Documentation burnout: Notes are the #1 satisfaction killer for PTs—but AI scribes like Clair are changing that. The big prediction: A dominant, well-funded cash PT brand will emerge within 5–10 years. Why it's coming: Cash PT is a fragmented industry—making it ripe for consolidation. Parallel to CrossFit: Independent affiliates → OrangeTheory-style scaling. The MYO example: A clinically strong, business-savvy brand already expanding across North America. Funding accelerates growth: Capitalized clinics can outspend and outscale local competitors. The risk to small clinics: Owners who don't level up in business skills will be the first to get squeezed out. Lessons & Takeaways Strong brand identity matters: Your niche and reputation must be crystal clear. Community ties protect you: Local loyalty beats national branding when done right. Systems = survival: Without consistent processes, you can't compete with scaled clinics. Capital changes the game: Funded competitors can move faster and spend more to dominate markets. Seven-figure clinics are the safe zone: Multiple clinicians = stability, hiring power, and insulation. Mindset & Motivation Control what you can control: You can't stop national brands, but you can out-serve them locally. Play offense, not defense: Staying tiny isn't safe—it's risky. Growth is protection: More clinicians = stronger brand, stronger community presence, and stronger cash flow. Embrace the opportunity: Rising interest in cash PT means a larger market for everyone. Pro Tips for Clinic Owners Automate documentation: Use Clair to reclaim time, reduce burnout, and stay patient-focused. Dial in your niche: Own a specific population so deeply that national chains can't replicate you. Invest in brand building: Your logo, message, and community presence matter more than ever. Master sales & marketing: Cash PT requires top-tier communication and value clarity. Train your team relentlessly: Quality control keeps your outcomes consistent across clinicians. Notable Quotes "Any fragmented industry eventually consolidates. Cash PT is no different." "If you stay tiny because you think it's safe, you're actually more vulnerable than ever." "A national cash PT brand will sell for nine figures—or more. The momentum is already here." "Your community, your niche, your service—those are your moats." Action Items Audit your brand: is it recognizable, niche-specific, and memorable? Evaluate your systems: documentation, scheduling, marketing, and sales. Assess your growth plan: is staying small really safe for the next decade? Study fast-scaling companies like MYO to understand future competition. Start using an AI scribe like Clair to free up hours of mental bandwidth.

JONAH WAS a vindictive man who cared more about a plant than he did for the 120,000 people of Nineveh. Reading the short Book of Jonah aloud makes it clear that the story is as much about Jonah's desire for the destruction of Nineveh as it is about God's mercy and desire that all people would repent and return to Him. Not only did Jonah try to run away from God, but when he finally did proclaim God's imminent judgment on the great city (reluctantly), he was so upset that God spared the city that Jonah asked God to kill him! This is one of those sections of the Bible that would surely have been rewritten to show Jonah in a better light if the text had been changed over the years—although we note that the time given the Ninevites to repent was changed from three days to forty between the time of the Septuagint translation (around 200 BC) and the Masoretic text on which our English Old Testament is based (about 900 AD). This week's question: What do we make of Jeremiah 30:6 and the description of men of Israel in such distress they're like women in childbirth? Sharon's niece, Sarah Sachleben, has been diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer, and the medical bills are piling up. If you are led to help, please go to GilbertHouse.org/hopeforsarah.

In dieser Episode sprechen ich mit Christian – einst hat er seine Kriegsdienstverweigerung erklärt, heute stellt er sich freiwillig zur Verfügung bei der Bundeswehr. Warum dieser Wandel? Welche Gedanken, Erfahrungen und Überlegungen haben ihn dorthin geführt? Parallel dazu steht Deutschland mitten in einer spannungsgeladenen Debatte um den Dienst an der Waffe: Von geplanten Reformen, dem neuen Dienstmodell und einer möglichen Wiedereinführung von Wehrpflicht ist die Rede. Christian reflektiert seinen Weg – vom „Nein“ zur Wehr-Verpflichtung, von inneren Zweifeln bis zur bewussten Entscheidung – und wie er die politischen und gesellschaftlichen Signale wahrnimmt: Braucht unser Land mehr Freiwillige? Wäre eine Pflicht gerechtfertigt? Wie passt das mit persönlicher Verantwortung, moralischen Überlegungen und dem eigenen Lebensweg zusammen? Eine emotionale, kritische und sehr persönliche Folge über Wertewandel, Mut zur Entscheidung und die Frage: Was heißt eigentlich Dienst heute – für den Einzelnen und für die Gesellschaft?

Insgesamt 37 Episoden hat die NBC-Schwester Universal Television bislang produziert. Voraussichtlich im kommenden Jahr wird die fünfte und finale Staffel beim US-Streamingdienst HBO Max starten – und, wie gewohnt, mit etwas Verzögerung auch in Deutschland bei RTL+ verfügbar sein. Die Serie erzählt die Geschichte einer alternden Komikerin, die in Las Vegas um ihre Karriere und ihre Bühnenpräsenz kämpfen muss. Parallel dazu steht die junge Autorin Ava Daniels (Hannah Einbinder) in Los Angeles vor dem beruflichen Aus, nachdem sie wegen eines unbedachten Tweets gecancelt wird. Da beide Frauen denselben Agenten haben, werden sie einander vorgestellt – mit zunächst katastrophalem Ergebnis. Erst widerwillig beginnen die selbstbewusste Entertainerin Deborah Vance (Jean Smart) und die idealistische Nachwuchsautorin zusammenzuarbeiten, um ihre Karrieren zu retten. In der dritten Staffel entwickelt sich «Hacks» deutlich weiter: Deborah wird nach einem erfolgreichen Comedy-Special in eine Late-Night-Show eingeladen. Als der Moderator kurzfristig ausfällt, springt sie als Gastmoderatorin ein – und überzeugt auf ganzer Linie. Die vierte Staffel knüpft daran an und widmet sich nun stärker dem Thema Abendunterhaltung und dem Showbusiness selbst. Mario Thunert und Fabian Riedner haben die neuen Folgen gesehen und sprechen über die Weiterentwicklung der Serie.

Révélé sur la scène reggae anglaise, le chanteur-producteur à la voix d'or s'impose aujourd'hui comme l'un des artistes les plus singuliers de sa génération. De Wigan où il est né, à Bristol où il est basé, voyage à travers les villes anglaises qui l'ont façonné. Chanteur, auteur-compositeur et producteur, Joe Yorke s'est imposé au fil des années comme l'une des voix les plus singulières du reggae britannique. Après une série de singles collaboratifs avec la scène dub anglaise et française (The Eastonian Singers, The Grampians, Stand High Patrol), il signe en 2023 Hopeless, troisième long format paru sur son propre label Rhythm Steady. Un album à l'équilibre subtil où la northern soul croise ses premières amours pour le rocksteady et le reggae roots. C'est aussi sur ce disque que s'affirme pleinement son falsetto imparable, cette voix claire et souple que son fidèle collaborateur Eeyun Purkins (The Co-Operators) avait su révéler lors de sessions maison. Une arme douce et agile, à l'image d'un artiste qui refuse de laisser enfermer dans un seul genre. C'est à Marseille, à l'occasion de la Fiesta des Suds, que je le rencontre. Ensemble, nous retraçons son parcours à travers trois villes anglaises qui ont façonné son identité musicale : Wigan, point de diffusion de la northern soul dans les sixties; Manchester, terre de métissages et d'avant-gardes sonores ; et Bristol, creuset d'une scène underground où reggae, dub et électronique se réinventent sans cesse. Pour suivre Joe Yorke YouTube / Instagram / Facebook Titres diffusés Singles :  "Rocksteady" feat L'Entourlopp (2025) ; "Smalltown Boy" feat Gentlemen's Dub Club (2024) ; "Downbeat Melody" feat the Co-Opretaors (2024), "Hard Road" feat The Co-Operators (2024) ; "End of The Day" et "Dub of The Day" feat The 18th Parallel (2023) ; Extrait de l'album Run The Track de Big Chip & Run Come Down (Mash & Greens – 2024) : "Fighting For My Life" ; "Final Dubwise (Eeyun Purkins Kette Cut)" Extraits de l'album Hopeless (Rhythm Steady – 2023) : "Dreaming" ; "Rough Living" ; "Man" Extrait de l'album A Distant beat feat The Co-Operators (Waggle Dance Records– 2023) : "The Singerman"  Extrait de l'album Noise and Emptiness (Rhythm Steady – 2022) : "Pressure"  Extraits de l'album Rhythms from The Kichen Sink des Co-Operators (Waggle Dance Records– 2020) : "Tonight" ; "Under Heavy Manners" ; "All My Days" ; "Judgement Tree"  Et aussi  : "Pimpers Paradise" de Bob Marley; "Do I Love You" de Frank Wilson  et le générique de la série britannique Eastenders.

Schon wieder eine Sprachnachricht von eurer Repli_Cathy!Ein mysteriöses Video sorgt für Streit zwischen Oliver Pocher und Christian Düren – und niemand weiß genau, was darauf wirklich zu sehen ist. Warum ist dieses angebliche „Skandal-Video“ plötzlich überall Thema? Wer hat es weitergeleitet? Und welche Vorwürfe stehen im Raum? Ich ordne ein, was bekannt ist – und was nicht.Parallel dazu gibt es bei Zara Secret das endgültige Aus. Die Trennung ist offiziell, aber ihre Storys werfen Fragen auf. Was steckt hinter den Widersprüchen, und warum wirkt das Timing so… interessant? Auch hier: Ich packe alles zusammen, was gerade durchs Netz schießt, und analysiere ihre Posts ohne Drama, aber mit Verstand.Und dann noch ein Thema, das mich richtig wütend macht: Women's Health. Wie ein angeblich „gesundes“ Magazin es schafft, Frauen subtil in Selbstzweifel zu drücken – und warum viele dieser Botschaften alles andere als empowernd sind. Warum reden wir eigentlich nicht mehr darüber, wie solche Medien unsere Wahrnehmung von Gesundheit, Körpergefühl und Selbstwert prägen?Wie immer: kritisch, satirisch, informativ – und garantiert ohne Esoterik, Frequenzwasser oder andere Dubai-Energieprodukte.00:00:00 Zara Secret offiziell getrennt!00:14:35 Oliver Pocher und sein Umgang mit Ex-Frauen00:16:40 Pocher verklagt Christian Düren wegen Erpressung?!00:17:25 Das geheimen Video und seine Folgen00:21:00 Amiras Rolle im Rosenkrieg00:24:20 Sarah Harrison launcht ihre neue Marke00:27:05 Sarah Harrison auf dem Titel von Women's Health und was da so Thema ist00:28:00 Mein Women's Health Rant00:32:10 Feuchtigkeitsmasken für Kinder und der wahre Weg zum ErfolgWenn du meinen Content magst und mich unterstützen möchtest, dann kannst du mir ganz unkompliziert einen virtuellen Kaffee ausgeben – denn ohne Koffein läuft hier gar nichts!

In this episode I sit down with Grigore Roșu (Grigore Rosu), former NASA researcher and computer‑science professor, now building the Pi Squared Network. We dive into what Web3 really means (hint: it isn't just blockchains). Grigore explains why the conventional blockchain model is inefficient, how his team is creating a parallel settlement network that scales, and what this could mean for everything from payments to gaming to AI‑agent economies. Whether you're a founder, developer, or curious about the next wave of crypto infrastructure—you'll get fresh insights plus a roadmap of what's coming next.Key Learnings[00:00:00] The common idea that Web3 = blockchain is flawed — blockchains are one implementation, not the only way.[00:05:00] How good academic ideas at university can migrate into startup innovations (Rosu's lab → Runtime Verification → Pi Squared).[00:06:00] The core scalability problem in Web3: transaction throughput and cost. Why traditional chains struggle.[00:08:00] The paradigm shift: dropping “total order” of transactions across the network and moving to parallel, independent settlement.[00:09:00] How the original blockchain design (chain + blocks + ordering) addressed double‑spending, but introduces a scalability ceiling.[00:12:00] The potential: with massive parallelism, transaction cost could fall to “a hundredth of a cent” and throughput could reach millions per second.[00:15:00] What this means for layers: If the infrastructure supports massive parallelism, the whole stack changes (Layer 1, Layer 2, app chains).[00:21:00] Why the language ecosystem matters: restrictive smart‑contract languages (e.g., Solidity) limit developer adoption.[00:30:00] Why it's taken a decade for this to shift: new scientific results, protocol research, and building the infrastructure take time.[00:36:00] Pi  Squared's roadmap: upcoming network launch, opening to validators, then expanding languages, reaching decentralization at scale.[00:40:00] The “north star” metric: 1 million organic transactions per second. Makes everything else fall into place.[00:43:00] Real use‑cases unlocked: Web3 gaming, AI agents interacting at speed, truly low‑cost settlement for mass‑market.DisclaimerNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

Adam Driver und Steven Soderbergh planen zwei Jahre lang einen Film über Ben Solo. Der Film wird vorangetrieben, kriegt bei Lucasfilm grünes Licht – und wird dann von der Spitze von Disney abgesägt. Diese News wirft seit Ende Oktober immer neuen Gesprächsstoff ab und wirft ein Licht auf den Zustand von Star Wars, Disney und des Film-Geschäftes. Parallel erreicht die Kylo-Ren Comic-Reihe "Legacy of Vader" mit Heft #10 einen vorläufigen Höhepunkt. Kylo Ren trifft auf Mustafar auf den verstorbenen Luke Skywalker! Das Vermächtnis von Ben Solo ist das Hauptthema in dieser (offiziel) 124ten Ausgabe von Bucketheads. Mit Kevin, Dascha und Lasse.

Sneller bouwen, dat wil iedereen. Toch wil het met veel projecten niet echt vlotten. De oplossing voor dat probleem? Niet minder regels, maar vooral meer routine. Deze aflevering in het kort:☑️ De echt vertraging in de bouw zit in de planfase zit, niet bij de regels☑️ Hoe parallel plannen zorgt voor snelheid én betere samenwerking☑️ Gemeente Utrecht staat verkoop sociale huurwoningen toch weer toeEen nieuwbouwwijk of bedrijventerrein realiseren. In Nederland duurt het vaak jaren voordat zo’n project van plan naar bouwfase gaat. En dat is niet eens zozeer omdat vergunningen te lang op zich laten wachten, vertelt onze gast. Volgens haar is het probleem vooral de manier waarop het hele proces is georganiseerd. Eerst ontwerp, dan participatie, daarna pas vergunningen en vervolgens de aanbesteding. Evelyn Rademaker van Fakton pleit daarom voor een andere aanpak: parallel plannen. Daarbij lopen die stappen gelijktijdig, onder één gezamenlijke regie.

In this gripping conversation, Belarusian legal expert and exiled journalist Natalia Belikova explains how disinformation in Belarus isn't just a tactic; it's the regime's operating system.She describes how the Lukashenko government has built an alternative reality, where familiar words like “democracy,” “elections,” and “human rights” are redefined to serve state power. In a sometimes emotional interview, Natalia shares what it's like to be exiled from your home, to lose colleagues to prison, and to raise children abroad while fighting to preserve your national identity. She also issues a warning to Western democracies. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, Casey sits down with Daniel O'Donnal, Owner of Saela Pest Control, for a deeply human conversation on leadership, identity, and what it means to build something meant to last. From bootstrapping a business from scratch to a nine-figure exit, Daniel reflects on 17 years of grit, partnership, and the belief that real success is measured by the lives you impact, not just the profits you earn.He shares lessons learned from his partners, Andrew and Blaine Richardson, and the moments that nearly broke them; going without paychecks, homes on the line, and the humility of starting over. But the heart of this episode is not the sale; it is the story behind it. Daniel opens up about faith, mentorship, and adoption, and how the calling to expand his family changed everything he thought he knew about love, leadership, and capacity.This conversation explores what happens after the win, how to reframe identity beyond achievement, and why the best leaders make others believe in themselves first.

It captivates you, and captures your heart as the buzz shifts up to your imagination.Think back to a time where you met someone and felt an instant connection.Or found yourself drawn to a place you've never been, yet it feels like home?There might be more to these moments than coincidence.Today, I want to explore a concept that completely reframes how we understand reality: the idea that all versions of you—past, present, and future—are happening simultaneously, right now.Parallel lives are fricken' mind boggling.I finally cracked the code of a real - tangible example of how to find resolve in this mystical truth.Have you ever met someone and felt an instant, inexplicable connection?Or found yourself drawn to a place you've never been, yet it feels like home?There might be more to these moments than coincidence.Let's jump in and explore a concept that completely reframes how we understand reality:The idea that all versions of you—past, present, and future—are happening simultaneously, right now.Everything exists at once.Time isn't a river flowing from past to future. It's more like a vast ocean where every possibility exists simultaneously across different frequencies. You're simply tuned into one station—this life, this moment—but countless other versions are playing alongside it.Think about it like this: You're a radio receiver focused on one frequency, but you have the ability to tune into other stations. Those “past lives” you've heard about? They're not behind you. Those “future possibilities” you dream of? They're not ahead of you. They're all happening now, in parallel dimensions of experience.The people in your life are mirrors.Everyone you encounter—from your closest family to the stranger who smiled at you this morning—reflects a parallel version of yourself. They're autonomous beings living their own experiences, yes, but what you see in them mirrors the vibrations you're putting out.This is why certain people trigger you while others inspire you. They're showing you aspects of yourself you either resist or embrace.Your difficult colleague? They might be reflecting your own inner critic. That friend who always seems so peaceful? They're showing you your own capacity for serenity.But it goes deeper than this reality.Beyond the people in your current life exist infinite alternate versions of your world.What if you had taken that job in another city?What if you had said yes instead of no to that opportunity?Those realities exist now, complete with their own versions of you exploring different paths.And even beyond Earth-like experiences, parts of you exist in other dimensions, other worlds, as different types of beings entirely.All connected.All you.All now.Here's what this means for your daily life:When you feel drawn to something—a place, an idea, a person—trust it.You might be picking up information from a parallel self who has something valuable to share.When synchronicities appear, pay attention.They're often downloads from other versions of you who've already walked similar paths.When you meet someone who feels familiar, honor that recognition.They might be reflecting a parallel self you're ready to integrate.

Third-party settlement organizations (TPSOs)—including platforms such as Amazon, eBay, PayPal, and Venmo - must send copies of the form to both the IRS and taxpayers, detailing the total payments received for goods and services. Return to the Pre-2021 Standard Before 2021, TPSOs were required to issue a Form 1099-K only if a seller received more than $20,000 and conducted at least 200 transactions during the year. The 2021 American Rescue Plan Act lowered that threshold to $600, triggering widespread criticism from taxpayers and digital-payment platforms who warned the rule would swamp casual sellers with unnecessary paperwork. The IRS initially attempted to phase in the lower limit—proposing $5,000 for 2024, $2,500 for 2025, and $600 from 2026 onward—but the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed by President Donald Trump on July 4, permanently repealed those reductions. As a result, TPSOs are again only required to issue Form 1099-K if both of the following are true: The gross payments to a payee exceed $20,000, and The number of transactions exceeds 200.

What does it mean to live with true integrity before God? This powerful exploration of Proverbs 11 uses a fascinating visual of an ancient scale to unlock a profound spiritual truth: God delights in transparency and abhors deception. The passage opens with the striking image of false balances being an abomination to the Lord, while just weights bring Him delight. This isn't merely about honest business dealings—it's a metaphor for how we live our entire lives. Through the clever illustration of M&Ms that look identical but weigh differently, we're confronted with our own tendency to present one thing while hiding another. The text walks us through contrast after contrast: pride versus humility, integrity versus crookedness, kindness versus cruelty. Each pairing reveals that our character isn't just about external actions but about the condition of our hearts. The crooked heart is an abomination, while blameless ways delight God. What makes this message so relevant is its unflinching honesty about how we position ourselves—toward our neighbors, in our business dealings, with our secrets, and especially in our witness. We're challenged to ask: Are we being authentic, or are we like gold jewelry on a pig—beautiful on the outside but fundamentally unclean? The call is clear: transparency, integrity, and genuine vulnerability are what allow others to see Christ in us and ultimately lead to capturing souls for the kingdom.### Sermon Notes**Introduction**- Series: Book of Proverbs- Transition from first nine chapters to the one-liners of Proverbs, emphasizing wisdom in everyday life.- Focus on Proverbs 11, particularly on themes of integrity, honesty, and righteousness.**Key Verses**- Proverbs 11:1: "A false balance is an abomination to the Lord, but a just weight is his delight."- Proverbs 11:20: "Those of crooked heart are an abomination to the Lord, but those of blameless ways are his delight."**Illustration: M&Ms and Balances**- Demonstration using M&Ms to illustrate unequal weights and measures.- Emphasizes honesty and integrity in dealings — showing the difference between a false balance and a just weight.**Understanding the Context**- Historical use of weights and measures to ensure fairness and integrity.- The biblical mandate for truthful representation in dealings with others.**Themes and Exposition**1. **Integrity and Honesty**  - Importance of being transparent and honest in daily interactions.  - Proverbs 11:3: "The integrity of the upright guides them, but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them."2. **Riches vs. Righteousness**  - Proverbs 11:4: Riches are futile in the end; righteousness delivers.  - Wealth should not be ultimate pursuit; leads to false security.3. **Pride and Humility**  - Proverbs 11:2: Pride leads to disgrace, humility to wisdom.  - Importance of maintaining humility in relationships and business.4. **Words and Relationships**  - Proverbs 11:9, 12-13: The impact of words on neighbors and communities.  - Encouragement to be silent and prudent in speech, preserving trust.5. **Guidance and Counsel**  - Proverbs 11:14: Value of wise counsel and collective decision-making.  - The role of community and elders in guiding individual and corporate decisions.6. **Generosity and Kindness**  - Proverbs 11:24-25: Generosity leads to blessings; holding back leads to want.  - Being open-handed with resources creates a culture of abundance and support.7. **Spiritual Pursuits**  - Proverbs 11:30: "The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and whoever captures souls is wise."  - Parallel to the Great Commission: our role in sharing the Gospel.**Practical Applications**1. **Practice Integrity:** Regularly assess how you conduct business and personal relationships.

Welcome to Battleground Korea: The Unfinished War. We begin by exploring how Korea, a nation scarred by decades of Japanese occupation, was suddenly and arbitrarily divided by the victorious Allies in 1945. The line was the 38th Parallel. This division birthed two fiercely opposing regimes and leaders: the Soviet-backed communist Kim Il Sung in the North, and the American-backed nationalist Syngman Rhee in the South. As the Cold War escalated, Korea rapidly became a volatile proxy battleground between East and West. "With American and Soviet forces withdrawing, the fragile peace along the 38th Parallel began to unravel. Skirmishes grew bloodier and more audacious. Both Kim Il Sung and Syngman Rhee openly spoke of unifying the peninsula—by force. The question wasn't if the two Koreas would clash, but whether their civil conflict would ignite a wider conflagration, pulling in the global superpowers. The stage was set, but who would make the first devastating move?" The episode concludes with the secret plotting that sealed Korea's fate. Kim Il Sung relentlessly lobbied Josef Stalin and Mao Zedong for the necessary support. After months of manoeuvring, the communist giants finally gave their approval, providing the crucial political green light. Next time: The Invasion.

It's part 2 of our dive into the Insect Apocalypse, with our good friend Dr. Jason Dombroskie from the Cornell University Insect Collection!In this part, Jason fills us in on the drivers of the Insect Apocalypse and - most importantly - what we can do about it.This episode was recorded on August 21, 2025 at Rattlesnake Hill Wildlife Management Area in Dalton, NY.. Episode NotesDuring the episode, we made the claim that 40 million acres of the US is lawn, and that that area is equal to all of the country's National Parks put together. True? Well, sort of. The claim that the U.S. has about 40 million acres of lawn—roughly equal to all our national parks combined—is only partly true. A NASA-funded study led by Cristina Milesi estimated that turfgrass covers about 128,000 km² (≈31 million acres) of the continental U.S., making it the largest irrigated “crop” in the country (Milesi et al., Environmental Management, 2005; NASA Earth Observatory). Later analyses and popular summaries often round that up to ≈40 million acres (e.g., Scienceline, 2011; LawnStarter, 2023). By comparison, the total land area of all officially designated U.S. National Parks is about 52.4 million acres, while the entire National Park System—which also includes monuments, preserves, and historic sites—covers about 85 million acres (National Park Service, 2024). So while lawns and parks occupy areas of similar magnitude, lawns do not actually equal or exceed the combined area of the national parks. Is it better to mulch leaves on your lawn or leave them be? Here's what we found: It's generally best to mulch your leaves with a mower rather than rake or remove them. Research from Michigan State University found that mowing leaves into small pieces allows them to decompose quickly, returning nutrients to the soil and reducing weeds like dandelions and crabgrass (MSU Extension, “Don't rake leaves — mulch them into your lawn”, 2012). Cornell University studies similarly show that mulched leaves improve soil structure, moisture retention, and microbial activity (Cornell Cooperative Extension, “Leaf Mulching: A Sustainable Alternative”, 2019). However, in garden beds, wooded edges, or under shrubs, it's often better to leave leaves whole, since they provide winter habitat for butterflies, bees, and other invertebrates that overwinter in leaf litter (National Wildlife Federation, “Leave the Leaves for Wildlife”, 2020). The ideal approach is a mix: mow-mulch leaves on grassy areas for turf health and leave them intact where they naturally fall to support biodiversity and soil ecology.

KING AMAZIAH of Judah is a classic example of someone whose pride got the better of him. 2 Kings 14 tells us that after Amaziah became king, he led a successful military campaign against Edom. He captured the stronghold of Sela, which was probably Petra in present-day Jordan, defeating an army of some 10,000 Edomites. This led him to provoke a war with the northern kingdom of Israel. Despite a warning from King Jehoash to “be content with your glory, and stay at home,” Amaziah wouldn't listen, the two kingdoms went to war, Judah was defeated, and Amaziah, like his father, fell victim to a palace coup. The parallel chapter in 2 Chronicles 25 reveals that Amaziah brought idols representing the gods of Edom back to Jerusalem and began to worship them, and that this was the reason the king provoked a war with Israel—God used this war to humble Amaziah and those who followed him into pagan worship.

Most founders think ads are the only scalable way to grow. They aren't. Aiden shows how outbound, done right, can outperform paid social—no algorithms, no ad bans, no CPM spikes. The secret isn't “more hustle.” It's smarter tech: parallel dialing that filters bad data, avoids spam flags, and connects live calls 10x faster.We trace the fall of traditional cold calls (three live connections per hundred dials), the rise of AI limits under TCPA, and why Facebook ads have quietly become a treadmill of copy rewrites, rising costs, and bot clicks. Aiden's model flips the script—less burn, more control, and measurable consistency.Even more surprising: the next generation of inside sales agents aren't in Silicon Valley—they're Egyptian lawyers earning more cold-calling than in law. Global leverage meets old-school grit.This isn't nostalgia for boiler rooms. It's data-driven, tech-enabled human connection.TL;DR* “Cold calling is dead” is a myth—it just evolved with smarter tools.* Parallel dialers reach 700–800 numbers/hour with adaptive line control.* Real cost advantage: your time + dialer fee vs $10K ad testing cycles.* AI callers are banned under TCPA—human voice still wins trust.* Best ROI: trained inside sales agents + verified mobile data = predictable leads.* Bonus: outbound also builds partnerships, not just direct sales.Memorable lines“Cold calling isn't dead—it's just been automated, filtered, and reborn.”“You can't out-ad Facebook's algorithm, but you can out-call your competition.”“Consistency beats creativity when your pipeline depends on people.”“AI can't legally sell for you—but real humans still can.”GuestAiden Sowa — Founder & CEO of Zoto Dialer, building next-gen multi-dialing systems that balance pickup rate, compliance, and speed for sales teams worldwide.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aidansowa/Website: https://www.zotodialer.co/Why this mattersScaling isn't about finding the next hack—it's about control.Cold calling 2.0 delivers what ads can't: consistent reach, predictable costs, and direct conversations that build trust faster than clicks.

FRANKOPAN4.mp3 - The Medieval Warm Period, Viking Expansion, and Parallel Empires Professor Peter Frankopan | The Earth Transformed: An Untold History The Medieval Warm Period (950–1250 CE), marked by low volcanism, fostered environmental stability and large-scale human movement. This included Viking expansion into the North Atlantic, seeking new pastures and resources like walrus ivory. This colonization was often violent, relying on the enslavement and coercion of women from Ireland and Scotland for reproduction. In North America, the cosmopolitan city of Cahokia thrived for centuries before collapsing due to internal pressures like resource depletion and elite competition. Globally, several "power empires" (e.g., Chola, Abbasids) rose in parallel, reinforcing each other through trade and cultural exchange, such as the spread of Indian culture into Southeast Asia.

THE TEMPLE in Jerusalem fell into disrepair within a century of the death of Solomon. The king who repaired it was a good man—sort of. Joash (or Jehoash), son of Ahaziah, reigned in Judah 835–796 BC. He was made king at age seven by the high priest Jehoiada and is credited with restoring the Temple—even pushing the priests, who seemed rather slow to make repairs even after they were ordered to do so. However, the account in 2 Chronicles 24 records that after the death of Jehoiada, Joash fell away and returned to the pagan gods of the Canaanites. Worse, he had the son of Jehoiada, Zechariah, murdered for calling him out! As a consequence, God allowed Judah to be defeated by a relatively small army from the neighboring Aramean kingdom of Damascus, and Joash was assassinated in his bed by two of his servants. We also discuss the death of Elisha in the northern kingdom of Israel, and why King Joash (same name, different king) failed to completely defeat the Arameans.

We've all heard the test-taking advice: “If you're stuck, trust your first answer.” But is that really the smart move? Research says no — and I begin this episode by explaining why going with your gut on exams might actually hurt your score. Source: Joseph T. Hallinan, author of Why We Make Mistakes (https://amzn.to/44PV4SQ). Feeling awkward or embarrassed is awful in the moment — but maybe it's not nearly as bad as you think. In fact, those cringeworthy moments might even be a secret weapon. Henna Pryor has studied the psychology of embarrassment and shares why embracing awkwardness can help you become braver and more resilient. She's a keynote speaker with two TEDx talks (https://www.ted.com/talks/henna_pryor_why_awkwardness_is_your_secret_weapon_for_risk_taking_at_work) and author of Good Awkward: How to Embrace the Embarrassing and Celebrate the Cringe to Become The Bravest You (https://amzn.to/45Ksgwh). We take seeds for granted — but how plants grow from them is one of nature's most astonishing processes. Jennifer Jewell, gardening educator, advocate, and host of the Cultivating Place podcast (https://www.cultivatingplace.com/blog-1), reveals the hidden wonders of seeds, including fascinating insights like how seedless watermelons are grown without seeds at all. She's also the author of What We Sow (https://amzn.to/3EKxv3f), a book that will forever change the way you look at the plants around you. Parallel parking may feel like a nightmare, but it doesn't have to be. With a couple of simple tricks, it's easier than you think. In the final segment, I share a straightforward technique that can make squeezing into tight spots much less stressful. Source: Jason Roberts, author of The Learn 2 Guide (https://amzn.to/3PnPNfH).
