Avoidance of accountability does not blow your business up overnight. It quietly lowers the bar, one unchecked behavior at a time. Peterman's Andrew Hasty walks through why avoiding accountability is one of the most dangerous dysfunctions on a team and how it slowly creates a culture of mediocrity in HVAC, plumbing, and home service businesses. Using real stories from the field and everyday life, this episode shows how "little" things like late arrivals, missing equipment data, sloppy paperwork, and skipped debriefs are not one-off issues. They are signals that standards are slipping and that leaders are choosing personal comfort over team success. If there is a tech coasting, a teammate with endless excuses, or a high performer who ignores process because "they produce," this episode will help frame and initiate the conversations that have been avoided for too long.

Connect with Chad on LinkedIn Chad Peterman | CEO | Author Learn more about the Peterman Brothers Follow PeopleForward Network on LinkedIn Learn more about PeopleForward Network Key Takeaways: Avoiding accountability slowly destroys team standards. Small misses today become the new normal tomorrow. Accountability is shared ownership, not top-down punishment. Leaders hurt culture when they choose comfort over honesty. Clear expectations and KPIs make accountability feel fair. Peer accountability is the strongest sign of a healthy team. Consistent feedback keeps growth and high performance normal.
Join Dewey and I as we do our annual catch up on with one another podcast chat.We talk about where we are at with our respective shows and the ebbs and flows of doing something weekly for almost 10 years, and kinda taking a step back from it for a bit. We reflect on the loss of Dave Shapiro and discuss the MASSIVE reach Dave had on not only our lives personally but so many of the bands and artists we love, and how his legacy will be one that will probably never be seen/felt again. Dewey shares how he's gotten into a new creative endevour in screen printing. We talk about the far reaching community that has provided him, and the various spaces within from bootlegs and vintage to me working in a bigger shop that makes merch for touring artists and retail alike. All this and more as I catch up with the renaissance man himself.Music:Hard Lines by Tom Denney Show Sponsor:Rockabilia (www.rockabilia.com) USE OUR CODE BREWTALLY AND GET 10% OFF YOUR TOTAL ORDER!!Links:Facebook:www.facebook.com/peerppodwww.facebook.com/rockabiliacomwww.facebook.com/brewspeakpodInstagram:@peerpleasurepod, @lightthriller , @rockabiliacom, @brewspeakpod, @jbeatty616 Twitter:@podpeerpleasure, @rockabilia, @brewspeakpod, @jbeatty616Website: peerpleasurepodcast.comwww.lightthriller.netEmail:Brewtallyspeaking@gmail.comRATE/REVIEW/SUBSCRIBE!!!

Moonsettler is a bitconer who adheres to the old school cypherpunk values and believes that the best way ahead is to enable OP_CTV (BIP119) or LNHANCE. However, the biggest problem is the generalized loss of focus. If last year there seemed to be consensus that Bitcoin needs covenants to improve scalability and bring new use cases, now the landscape is rather gloomy. Even Moonsettler changed his Twitter screen name to Doomsettler, as a reflection on this status quo. 00:01:16 Welcome Moonsettler (Doomsettler) 00:02:40 Delayed Interview and Original eCash Debate 00:03:14 Why eCash (Chaumian Cash) Never Took Off 00:04:00 Criticism of Custodial Scaling Solutions 00:05:14 Bitcoin as Decentralized Chaumian eCash 00:06:13 Fake Austrian Economics and Full Reserve Myths 00:08:32 Loss of "No Trusted Third Parties" Culture 00:09:52 Verifiable Supply vs Historical Fraud 00:13:40 Proof of Liabilities in eCash Mints 00:15:42 Cashu Fraud Proofs and Bug Bounty 00:18:20 Chaumian Blind Signatures Explained 00:24:48 Non-Custodial Credit eCash Ideas 00:30:39 Why Debit eCash Won't Scale Bitcoin 00:36:34 Bitcoin Like Linux – Oppose Custodial Layers 00:37:13 Unlimited Paper Bitcoin vs 21M Cap 00:41:25 Loss of Proof of Keys Culture 00:46:26 Doomsettler Mindset on Bitcoin's Future 01:09:30 Early Exchange Compliance Issues 01:11:37 Satoshi's Peer-to-Peer Vision 01:15:13 Satoshi's OPSEC and Disappearance 01:19:13 Craig Wright Not Satoshi 01:26:05 Libertaria and Frontier Culture 01:28:31 No More Frontiers for Freedom 01:39:21 App Delistings and PWA Debate 01:49:16 Twitter Worse Under Elon Musk 01:55:35 AI Ruining Internet Trust 01:56:33 Introduction to Covenants 01:57:04 Covenant = Unbreakable Promise 02:00:55 History of Covenant Discussions 02:01:29 Permanent Encumbrance FUD Debunked 02:03:38 Control Today via Multisig (No Covenants) 02:07:26 Covenants Don't Break Fungibility 02:08:35 Covenants Reduce Trust in L2 02:11:46 Post-Quantum Covenant Advantages 02:13:46 OP_CTV Explained 02:15:42 Non-Interactive L2 Settlements 02:20:23 Congestion Control with Covenants 02:29:08 Ordinals Drama & OP_CAT Risks 02:31:43 Jeremy Rubin Context 02:33:49 LNHANCE Package (CTV + More) 02:36:51 Why LNHANCE is Conservative 02:44:26 2022 CTV Activation Drama 02:47:27 Curiosity vs Annoyance Motivation 02:49:04 Andreas Antonopoulos FUD Clip 02:51:15 Need for Covenant FUD FAQ 02:53:47 Persistent CTV Critics 03:55:27 Covenant FUD Knowledge Base Need 03:56:26 Steven Roose Support 03:57:40 Covenant Table on Wiki 03:58:56 Isolated Op Code Comparisons Issues 04:00:34 OPCAT vs CTV Preferences 04:01:48 Table Inconsistencies 04:02:19 Ordinals Devs Pushing OPCAT 04:03:26 CTV Strengths and Risks 04:10:22 Ideal Packages (Great Script Restoration) 04:43:24 Pink Floyd "The Wall" Analogy 04:45:49 Citadel Critique 04:49:49 Need for New Frontiers 04:51:56 Disagreeable Societies Preserve Freedom 04:54:56 Special Economic Zones for Renewal 04:57:50 Altcoins as Competition/Experiments 04:59:20 Privacy Coins Driving Response 06:00:34 Monero Privacy & Community 06:04:42 FCMP++ Upgrade 06:05:37 Monero Quantum Roadmap 06:07:16 Quantum Risks to Monero 06:09:47 Zcash Preference & Compatibility 06:11:34 ZK Privacy Advantages 06:13:16 Drivechains & Peg Risks 06:17:45 Spacechains 06:20:31 Quantum Threats to ECDSA 06:26:49 PQ Soft/Hard Fork Debate 06:34:57 Covenants for PQ Vaults 06:38:14 Ark Protocol 06:42:33 Lightning Custodial Risks 06:50:19 BitVM & Optimistic Rollups 06:55:44 Bitcoin Dev Culture Disappointment 07:49:05 Austrian vs Cypherpunk Values 07:53:20 Austrians Dislike Data 07:54:39 Full Reserve Myth 07:55:56 Core Dev Covenant Silence 07:57:32 Core Ignoring Covenants 07:58:22 Floppy's Drunk Posting 08:00:38 Calle's Cashu Story 08:02:02 Privacy Respect & Avoiding Doxing 08:02:29 Floppy's Drunk Tweets 08:03:48 Tolerance for Abusive Behavior 08:04:15 Understanding Non-Engagement with Floppy 08:04:32 Floppy as Builder (Joinstr Plugin) 08:04:57 Luke Dashjr Funding Complaints 08:05:23 Luke's Likability & Hack 08:06:36 Ocean Mining Business Model 08:08:36 Reducing Antpool Hash Dominance 08:08:56 Miner Template Building Debate 08:09:02 Mining Centralization Concerns 09:38:04 9+ Hour Marathon Reflection 09:38:45 Girlfriend & Cat Interruptions 09:39:12 How to Follow Moonsettler 09:39:45 Moonsettler's Twitter Content Focus 09:40:38 Shoutout to SimulXXX (CTV Advocate) 09:41:29 Moonsettler as Crypto Hobbyist 09:42:37 Major Contributions Discussion 09:43:38 Non-Interactive Hardware Wallet Proofs 09:44:36 Sharing Personal Bitcoin Vision 09:45:14 Coldcard Experimental Implementation 10:03:18 Seed Backup Durability & Preference for Burnable Paper Backups 10:04:22 Manual Entropy & Seed Splitting 10:05:01 Early Self-Custody Cheat Sheets 10:05:25 Hardware Wallet Entropy Risks 10:06:30 Dice-Rolled Seeds vs Hardware 10:07:27 2-of-3 Backup Scheme 10:07:59 Crypto Steel Promo 10:08:24 10-Hour Mark, No Bathroom Break 10:08:49 Thanks & Merry Christmas 10:09:41 Next Episode Tease

To close out 2025, I'd like to revisit a critical aspect that's being ignored – the economy itself. Ken Webster is a leading thinker in the circular economy field, and one of his many roles is with Earth4All, where he has been exploring the benefits of a Universal Basic Dividend. Ken and Catherine discussed this, and more aspects of circularity at an economic level back in 2023, and it's highly relevant today, as the challenges we face loom larger. Catherine says: Ken Webster is one of my circular economy heroes, and is widely acknowledged as one of the foremost thinkers in the field. From 2010 – 2018, Ken was Head of Innovation for the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, shaping current concepts of a ‘circular economy'.. Ken also co-wrote the book that first opened my eyes to the circular economy back in 2011 – Sense and Sustainability, co-written with Craig Johnson. One of Ken's best-known books, The Circular Economy: A Wealth of Flows, relates the connections between systems thinking, economic and business opportunity and the transition to a circular economy. I'm very keen to read one of Ken's most recent books, co-written with Alex Duff. Ken and Alex use a storytelling approach based on the The Wonderful Wizard of Oz to offer a new and compelling narrative about the future direction of our economy, calling for macro-economic system redesign. It's called The Wonderful Circles of Oz: A Circular Economy Story – you'll find links in the shownotes. Ken's written several more thought-provoking works on the circular economy, including ABC+D: Creating a Regenerative Circular Economy for All – also co-written with Craig Johnson, and we mention some of these as we go along. This was a wide-ranging conversation about system-scale issues and concepts. I tried my best to keep up with Ken's thinking as we explored some of the big ideas he has been working on, including: A Universal Basic Dividend – not to be confused with UBI, or Universal Basic Income. We discuss why a Universal Basic Dividend would be a good thing, how it would be funded and where the money would flow to. We move onto The Commons – what that really means, and how it could be better accommodated in our modern economies, in a meaningful and sustainable way. Ken talks about the rentier economy, and rentiers. If you're not familiar with that term, it's someone who earns income from capital without working – for example by owning property or land that is rented out to tenants; by owning shares or bonds that pay dividends or interest, and so on. We discuss why the economy isn't working for the vast majority of people around the world, and what's getting in the way of an ‘economy for all'. We talk about some of the signals for change, with people are starting to see the potential of a future with community, connection and caring – caring for each other, and for our Mother Earth. The potential of a future that's not all about ‘Work, Buy, Consume, Die'. I've split our conversation into two parts – the 2nd part is available here: 119 Bonus Ken Webster: the circular ECONOMY! Part 2 International speaker, author and strategic advisor, Catherine Weetman helps people discover why circular, regenerative and fair solutions are better for people, planet – and prosperity. Catherine’s award-winning book: A Circular Economy Handbook: How to Build a More Resilient, Competitive and Sustainable Business includes lots of practical examples and tips on getting started.

The Power of Peer-to-Peer Advisory Groups: How Jerry Brazie Helps Entrepreneurs Avoid Costly MistakesIn this episode, host Josh Elledge interviews Jerry Brazie, founder of The Kronos Group, to explore why entrepreneurship doesn't have to be a lonely journey. Jerry shares how peer-to-peer advisory groups provide business owners with trusted insight, accountability, and real-world problem-solving that goes far beyond motivation or surface-level advice. Drawing from decades of experience building and advising companies, Jerry explains why consistent peer engagement can be the difference between costly mistakes and sustained growth.Why Peer-to-Peer Advisory Groups Create Stronger, Smarter LeadersJerry Brazie compares entrepreneurship to mastering a skill like pool—progress doesn't come from occasional participation, but from consistent, focused practice. In business, that consistency shows up through regularly meeting with peers who understand the pressure of leadership and growth. Advisory groups create an environment where business owners can openly discuss challenges, test ideas, and learn from others who have faced similar decisions, often preventing expensive missteps before they happen.A key distinction Jerry emphasizes is the difference between peer-to-peer advisory groups and traditional mastermind groups. While masterminds often focus on inspiration or high-level ideas, advisory groups are intentionally small and structured to deliver individualized feedback. Each member receives dedicated time to present real problems, receive candid input, and leave with clear next steps—turning discussion into execution rather than motivation without follow-through.Jerry also highlights the personal dimension of advisory groups, noting that leadership challenges rarely stop at the office door. Conversations often extend beyond operations and strategy into personal well-being, relationships, and balance. By addressing both business and life challenges, advisory groups help entrepreneurs make better decisions, stay grounded, and lead more sustainably over the long term.About Jerry BrazieJerry Brazie is the founder of The Kronos Group, a peer-to-peer advisory organization serving business owners with revenues between $1M and $25M. With decades of experience building, scaling, and advising companies, Jerry is passionate about helping entrepreneurs avoid costly mistakes through accountability, candid feedback, and structured peer support.

Photo: Josh Engle, manager and peer support specialist at True North Recovery in Wasilla, gives out cookies as part of homeless outreach efforts in Anchorage on Tuesday, November 25, 2025. (Matt Faubion / Alaska Public Media) For people experiencing addition, it can help to talk to someone who has been through recovery themselves. Peer support specialists offer a different kind of support from therapists or psychiatrists. And in Alaska, there are state certifications for peer support roles, including a special track for Indigenous people with lived experience in recovery. Alaska Public Media's Rachel Cassandra has more on peer-to-peer care in the state. Josh Engle is bundled up on one of the first really cold days in October. He walks along a forest path to do outreach in an encampment in Anchorage. He approaches a man in a weathered coat. “How long you been out here on the streets?” “Too long. Yeah. Yeah.” Several tents and makeshift structures lean together. “You connected with any resources?” Engle is a manager and peer support specialist at True North Recovery – and one of his aims today is to help guide people into recovery. It's a path Engle knows well because he's in long-term recovery himself. Now he supports people in ways that go well beyond what a more traditional therapist or psychiatrist can do. He may text with clients outside business hours, help them find work or get connected with benefits – anything that supports them in a way that might lead to recovery. “I personally, really enjoy being able to connect with them on a personal level of someone that has walked their path.” When patients interact with workers with lived experience, research shows it can aid recovery and can reduce healthcare costs. Aaron Surma is Executive Director of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) in Juneau, which runs training for peer support. And Surma experiences mental illness himself. He says psychiatrists and mental health professionals play an important role in supporting recovery and treatment, but there is a strong power difference. “You’re in a small room, you’re making intense eye contact, and the dynamic is that you have the expert and the person who needs help.” Surma says he was arrested multiple times during high school and was court ordered to go to Alcoholics and Narcotics Anonymous meetings. He says hearing peers in those groups was awesome, but things felt different when talking with his formal providers. “When I was a teenager, I was lighting stuff on fire and buying garbage bags of weed. So then to go into a small room and talk to somebody who you know, like, imagine the counselor from “South Park” who’s saying ‘Drugs are bad, Mkay?’ And it’s a million miles from what you know.” He says it's easier for peers to bridge those gaps in early recovery. Peer support specialists speak the language of addiction and mental illness and also understand the more traditional language of behavioral health professionals. Seeds of Eden, which offers addiction recovery services and community-based behavioral health services, recently received a $30,000 grant from the South Dakota Community Foundation. The grant will help the organization’s work to provide sober living, peer support, care coordination, and case management, including a project to build a recovery housing facility on the Standing Rock Reservation on the South Dakota side. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe straddles the South Dakota and North Dakota border. Isaiah Keller is one of the co-founders of Seeds of Eden. He says they're already secured a home, which is being remodel to offer future services. “The house that we have been remodeling is about 90% complete. So, a small portion of the funds that were awarded will go to finish that project, that house and to make it livable and to make it functional.” Keller says Seeds of Eden was designed to help fill a gap when it comes to addiction recovery services, and he says the group realized there was a need for assistance within tribal communities. He says they've been working closely with the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, Native American board members, and Native advocates. “We’ve partnered with a really good ally and advocate. And her name is Bobbi Jamerson. She’s the chairwoman of the Bear Soldier District on the South Dakota side of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. And she has been advocating and promoting recovery and community involvement. We’re at a point right now where we feel like we have some great traction and some great movement.” Keller says they would like to expand services across South Dakota and beyond.

PREVIEW — Mary Kissel — Missing Diplomatic Memory and the Russian Challenge. Kissel argues that current U.S.diplomats possess insufficient institutional memory and negotiating experience to effectively engage a nuclear-armed peer competitor like the former Soviet Union, now resurgent as Russia under Putin. Kissel emphasizes that the U.S. currently lacks a Senate-confirmed ambassador to Russia, critically limiting the American embassy's political influence and direct access to White House decision-making structures. Kissel documents that this ambassadorial vacancy reflects deeper institutional erosion of American diplomatic expertise and strategic communication capabilities regarding Russiannegotiations, creating dangerous capacity gaps precisely when Moscow possesses nuclear weapons and elevated geopolitical ambitions. 1931 STALIN & GORKY
