I went from running a student storage company out of college to owning 63 self-storage facilities, building a global team across five continents, and acquiring a multi-million dollar recruiting business. In this episode, I sat down with Will Smith and Niklas from Acquiring Minds to break down how I structure deals, why offshoring changed everything for my operations, and how I think about building in public, despite the hate that comes with it. We also talk through the tradeoffs of chasing internet fame vs. quietly building real businesses. This one goes deep.

Send us a textA fun chat with comedian and actor ARIES SPEARS, who is performing at The Improv in Schaumburg this weekend with 7 and 9:30 shows on Friday, 3:30, 7, and 9:30 on Saturday, and 6:00 on Sunday.ARIES SPEARSBiographyEver since New York native Aries Spears was 14 years old, he has been a force to be reckoned with in the comedy scene throughout America. His quick wit, charisma and ferociously aggressive style of comedy have earned him critical acclaim, high accolades, and above all, a busy schedule. From being a regular on Fox's Mad TV, starring in feature films, appearing on a number of national talk shows, and continually touring the country where he continually sells out each and every city, Aries' talents are widespread as he just passed the 3 million spins played on Pandora and his podcast is one of the "Musts" in the US. This past summer, Aries guest starred in CNN's “See It Loud” new summer series on the history of Black Television which was one of their hit docuseries of 2023, alongside Amanda Seales, Da'Vinchi, Debbie Allen, Deon Cole, Desus & Mero, Gabrielle Union, Jimmie Walker, Judge Greg Mathis, Kevin Frazier, Loni Love, Lynn Whitfield, Mo'Nique, Naturi Naughton, Omari Hardwick, Ray J, Ruben Studdard, Sherri Shepherd, Tatyana Ali, Tiffany Pollard, Tisha Campbell, Vivica A. Fox and many more. Trailer: https://tinyurl.com/AriesCNNSeeItLoudAs a principal cast member on Fox's hit sketch comedy show Mad TV, Aries brought a fresh, hip style to the already-edgy program from the third through the tenth season. The producers made full use of many of Aries's talents by calling on him frequently to create new hilarious characters and write sketches where he thrived for eight seasons.Some of the many recurring characters that Aries is famous for on the show include: Belma Buttons, Bill Cosby, Jesse Jackson, Mike Tyson, Walter (Crackheads), Reggie (Erascist), Dollar Bill Montgomery, Shaquille O'Neal, The Klumps, Michael Jackson, Sisqo, Evander Holyfield, El Diablo Negro and more. Aries also boasts a number of uproarious impersonations on the show that include James Brown, Al Pacino, and his childhood idol Eddie Murphy. The Aries-branded sketch “Talkin' American” was Mad TV's most popular bit, keeping fans tuned in and boosting Mad's ratings impressively on Saturday night.Aries has also found great success in the world of feature films. At the age of 17, after being spotted in a comedy club, Aries landed a part in the movie Home of Angels which eventually led to a starring role alongside John Leguizamo in TriStar's The Pest followed by the notable role as Cuba Gooding, Jr.'s brother in Columbia's blockbuster hit, Jerry Maguire.Aries maintains a strong connection to his African roots and is involved in many charitable events, including a number of organizations that help abused women. He feels blessed to have been able to achieve everything that he has, but he in no way intends on stopping there. Given the extreme growing success rate of action comedies coming out of Hollywood, it's safe to say that Aries Spears will be in demand for quite some time. https://www.ariesspears.com
I'm so jealous, because in this week's episode the Duggars get to go somewhere I always dreamed of going: Space Camp! There weren't any space skirts so the older Duggirls had to stay in their regular uniform. The kids got decked out in a jumpsuit, did the flight simulator, and the mission control simulator. Ugh, that was my dream as a child. In this week's Dig, Whitney takes us through Pest's response...to the government's response to his 2255 filing. He definitely tried to spice things up with many creative writing touches. Old Billy G would be proud at the amount of self-aggrandizing and metaphors. Like what you hear?

Begrebet 'prepping' er gået fra at være noget, der primært har været reserveret til et fåtal til nu at være myndighedernes officielle anbefaling, men begrebet er ikke nyt. Vi har altid preppet - både da fjenden stod ved bymuren, når pesten ramte, eller vilde vejrforhold skabte ravage. I dette afsnit af Kampen om historien taler Asser Amdisen med historiker Mie Ellekilde og Lene Sandberg, der er lektor på Københavns Professionshøjskole, om prepping gennem tiderne. Hvornår begyndte vi med at preppe, hvad er forskellen på nutidens og datidens prepping - og hvorfor er det lige akkurat tre døgn, man skal kunne klare?

For a while now we've run a segment called Jesse's Cold Call where Jesse picks up the phone, dials an organisation at random, and hopes to find someone to have a yarn with. He's called all the information centres around the country and some iwi radio stations. So, given all the chat about hornets, we thought today we'd try our luck with a pest controller.

The British Pest Control Association says its members have recorded an increase in complaints about rat activity around the UK. Cleankill, a company that operates in the south of England, says it's seen a 20% rise in call-outs about rats in the last two years, and climate change may be playing a role.英国虫害防治协会称,其成员记录了英国各地对老鼠的活动情况投诉数量的增长。一家在英格兰南部地区开展业务的名为 “Cleankill” 的公司称,他们在过去两年中发现由老鼠引起的呼叫请求上升了 20%,而气候变化可能是其中一个原因。A study published earlier this year of 16 cities around the world, mostly in North America, found a strong link between rising temperatures and rat activity. The researchers believe warmer winters enable rats to reproduce more rapidly.今年早些时候发布的一项针对全球 16 座主要分布在北美洲的城市的研究发现气温上升和老鼠的活动情况之间有密切联系。研究人员认为,更温暖的冬季让老鼠能以更快的速度繁殖。But there are also other issues at play. Pest controllers say our overflowing bins, fractured communities and growing appetite for fast food all allow rats to thrive.不过依然有其它因素在发挥作用。害虫防治人员表示,人们满当当的垃圾桶、分崩离析的社区关系和快餐食品盛行都让老鼠得以快速成长。

Olyat, amely megszólítja Magyarország gazdag kulturális örökségét.En: He wanted to buy a special gift for his mentor, who had instilled in him a love for architecture—a gift that would express Hungary's rich cultural heritage.Hu: Ákos, Zsófi és Bence a körülötte nyüzsgő turisták elől menekülve csatlakoztak hozzá.En: Ákos was joined by Zsófi and Bence, escaping the bustling tourists around them.Hu: "Ez itt kész őrület!" nevetett Bence, a baráti társaság vidám hangján.En: "This is madness!" laughed Bence, the jovial voice of their group.Hu: "Próbáljunk máshova menni" - javasolta Zsófi, miközben egy kis empátiát fütyült a hűvös szél.En: "Let's try going somewhere else," suggested Zsófi as the chilly wind whistled with a hint of empathy.Hu: Ákosra nézett és hozzátette: "Hallottam, hogy egy kis kézműves bolt nyílt a közelben. Ott kevésbé zsúfolt lehet."En: She looked at Ákos and added, "I heard a small artisan shop opened nearby. It might be less crowded there."Hu: Ákos elmerült a gondolataiban.En: Ákos immersed himself in his thoughts.Hu: A színes kalotaszegi szőttesek, a kalocsai hímzések és a pécsi kerámiák mind-mind emlékeztették őt a magyar örökség gazdagságára.En: The colorful Kalotaszeg weavings, the Kalocsa embroideries, and the Pécs ceramics all reminded him of the richness of Hungarian heritage.Hu: Egy kis bolt talán rejteget valami különlegeset.En: A little shop might just hide something special.Hu: Hármasban elindultak az új cél felé.En: The trio set off toward the new destination.Hu: Az utcák csendesebbé váltak, ahogy közeledtek egy kis sikátorba, ahol a kézműves bolt rejtőzött.En: The streets grew quieter as they approached a small alley where the artisan shop was hidden.Hu: Az üzletbe belépve a béke és csend fogadta őket.En: When they entered the shop, they were greeted by peace and quiet.Hu: A polcokon kézzel készített tárgyak sorakoztak, minden darab egy-egy történetet mesélve.En: Handcrafted items lined the shelves, each piece telling its own story.Hu: Ákos szeme rögtön megakadt egy gyönyörű porcelán vázán.En: Ákos's eyes immediately caught a beautiful porcelain vase.Hu: Aranyló mustrái finoman visszaadták Budapest építészeti vonásait.En: Its golden patterns subtly echoed the architectural features of Budapest.Hu: Az egyszerű, mégis elegáns dizájn lenyűgözte őt.En: The simple yet elegant design fascinated him.Hu: "Tökéletes!" kiáltott fel, megérintve a tárgyat.En: "Perfect!" he exclaimed, touching the object.Hu: Érezte, hogy ez a váza jelképezi mindazt, amit keresett.En: He felt that this vase symbolized everything he had been searching for.Hu: Vásárlás után, ahogy kilépett a boltból, melegség ömlött szét benne.En: After buying it, as he stepped out of the shop, a warmth spread through him.Hu: Megtalálta, amit keresett, és közben felfedezte, mennyire inspiráló tud lenni a helyi művészet.En: He had found what he was looking for and, in the process, discovered how inspiring local art could be.Hu: A Duna partján hagyományokat és kultúrát hordozó ajándékával a kezében Ákos közelebb érezte magát mind a mentorához, mind saját gyökereihez.En: With his gift brimming with tradition and culture in his hand, Ákos felt closer both to his mentor and his own roots by the Danube's shore.Hu: Az Országház ég felé törő tornyai alatt, a ragyogó naplementében, Ákos már nem csak a vásárlás, de a hely szellemiségével is gazdagodva indult haza.En: Beneath the soaring spires of the Országház, in the glowing sunset, Ákos set off home, enriched not just by his purchase but also by the spirit of the place.

Alisa and I dug deep into what separates great founders from the rest. We talked about building stress tolerance like a muscle, hiring people who actually care, and the difference between delegation and abdication. We also got into the trap of chasing arbitrary net worth goals and why most entrepreneurs dramatically overshoot what they really need. This episode is full of real stories, honest takes, and a look at how I think about leadership, wealth, and building companies that last.

A handshake can't stop a chargeback, clean a windblown pool in one visit, or explain why you took a sick day. We dig into the real-world moments that turn friendly client relationships into friction, and show how a simple one-page service agreement replaces tension with trust. From setting owner responsibilities like maintaining water level and providing clear access, to outlining late fees, service pauses, and repair payments, we share practical language you can adopt today without turning your business into a legal minefield.We walk through a lean wind policy that lays out the exact cleanup sequence and sets a realistic timeline of up to three weeks for full recovery after severe weather. You'll hear how vague-but-useful phrasing preserves flexibility while still creating clarity. We also compare monthly vs weekly billing so clients understand why five-service-week months or missed visits don't trigger endless debates. The focus is on alignment: when clients know what you do, what they do, and how exceptions work, your schedule, sanity, and cash flow improve.For higher-risk work, we explain how targeted waivers—green pool cleanups and acid washes—document pre-existing stains and set honest limits on outcomes. These agreements rarely need legal muscle; their presence alone prevents most disputes. Best of all, using professional paperwork elevates your brand. Pest control, plumbers, contractors—they all use clear documents because they work. Adopt the same tools to screen out problem clients, serve good ones better, and stand out as a credible, reliable pool service.Ready to upgrade your route with clear policies and less stress? Subscribe, share this episode with a fellow pro, and leave a review to tell us which clause you're adding first.We make the case for putting pool service agreements in writing, from wind policies to billing and late fees.

Szilágyi Attila, a Maharishi Ájurvéda Napok alapítója idén is egy olyan eseményre készül, amely az egészség, a tudatosság és a belső harmónia új útjait mutatja meg. Az ájurvéda, az élet tudománya – test, lélek és szellem egységét hirdeti. Attila szerint mindhárom terület ápolása nélkülözhetetlen ahhoz, hogy az ember visszataláljon a természetes állapotához. A november 14–15. között megrendezett kétnapos esemény a Verdi Budapest Aquincum Hotelben nemcsak elméleti ismereteket kínál, hanem gyakorlati élményeket is: előadások, workshopok, aromaterápiás bemutatók és koncert teszik teljessé a programot. A rendezvény a tudatosság és az életminőség fejlesztését helyezi középpontba. A szervező célja, hogy az ősi indiai tudás ne csak távoli filozófiaként jelenjen meg, hanem kézzelfogható útmutatóként a mindennapokhoz. A programban részt vesznek nemzetközileg elismert orvosok, kutatók, valamint India magyarországi nagykövete is, és az eseményt védikus zenei koncert zárja. Attila több mint négy évet töltött külföldön, Maharishi Egyetemén, ahol a transzcendentális meditáció és az ájurvéda mélyebb megértését tanulmányozta. Vallja, hogy „az élet ritmusa maga a fejlődés”, és minden ember képes elindulni ezen az úton, ha nyitott a belső csend, a tudatos jelenlét és az önismeret irányába. A Maharishi Ájurvéda Napok üzenete időtlen: „öntözzük a gyökereket, ha szeretnénk, hogy a fa gyümölcsöt teremjen”. A rendezvény ezt az ősi bölcsességet hozza el a mai emberhez – a tudomány, a spiritualitás és a tapasztalat egyensúlyában.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Sánta László színész, énekes, a Madách Színház meghatározó művésze, aki eddigi pályafutása egyik legszemélyesebb projektjére készül.Laci a fővárosi kulturális élet egyik legaktívabb művésze, hiszen havonta minimum 18 estén fellép a teátrumban. A temérdek elfoglaltság mellett azonban most ideje nagy részét a „45 lépés, 45 év” című jubileumi koncertjének szervezései teszi ki, amely december 7-én lesz Békéscsabán, abban a városban, ahol a színház iránti szenvedélye gyerekként megszületett. Egy este, ahol dalok, történetek és élettöredékek szövik össze a múltat és a jelent. A koncert anyaga önéletrajzi ív mentén halad, Laci életének mérföldköveit idézve: a Békéscsabai Jókai Színház meghatározó pillanataitól a Budapesti Operettszínházon és a Madách Színházon át egészen napjainkig. A dalok között helyet kapnak Cserháty Zsuzsa, Katona Klári, LGT, Ákos és Kasszás Attila szerzeményei, valamint saját, gitáron írt dalai is – mindegyik egy korszak lenyomata. Ahogy fogalmaz: „A koncert nem búcsú, hanem hála. Minden dal az életem egy fejezete.” A színpadi előadás személyes hangvételű vallomás, ahol a zene mellett a történet is főszereplő. Fotók, emlékek, önirónia és őszinteség adják a koncert alapját – ahogy ő mondja, „ez tényleg nagyon sántalacis lesz, nagyon én leszek.” A beszélgetésben természetesen szó esik a Madách Színház és a TBG Production közös munkáiról is. A koncertre készülés, a dalválogatás, a próbaidőszak és a személyes önreflexió mind arról tanúskodik, hogy a zene és a színház számára nem hivatás, hanem életforma. Laci azt vallja: „A zene segít megérteni az életet. És amíg van dal, addig van erő.”A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Dustin Burnham and I sat down to talk about parenting, leadership, and the hard lessons that shape resilient people.

(Beware: SPOILERS for Aliens: Mondo Pest abound in this panel discussion!)
Could growers harness the kiwi as a way of reducing pests attacking their crops?

We get a check-in from the Pest Nest. We see how an infant Michael is so much like his father, according to Anna. Sits around, drools, sleeps a good amount. Like Smuggar Duggar like son. We get an update on the Taco Lot and watch Anna getting a view of her potential future by taking care of a gaggle of children by herself. In our Dig, we review the US justice system's response to Pest's 2255 Motion. Last week we got to watch one Duggar male get exposed on how useless he can be. This week we got to hear the Country's Legal System, explain thoroughly and repeatedly how another Duggar's arguments are not only untimely, but also lacking any semblance of merit.

In this episode of The Evergreen Thumb, guest Todd Murray joins host Erin Hoover to discuss how climate change is affecting garden pests. He explains that "pests" are defined by their interactions with humans and tend to thrive in disturbed environments, often reproducing rapidly. Climate change, especially shifting rainfall patterns and warmer temperatures, is stressing plants, making them more vulnerable to native and non-native pests such as beetles and aphids. Resources mentioned in this episode, along with a full transcript, can be found on our website.

We join a fair number of projects, and we often help teams bring their project up to our standard. This means bringing a lot of the same small pieces from project to project.In the latest episode of the No Compromises podcast, we rethink our “project standard” repo. Instead of a full Laravel skeleton, we propose a composable library of tool-specific, versioned configs (PHPUnit, Docker, etc.). We walk through the benefits for greenfield and legacy work, open questions about test organization, and how this approach scales as tools evolve.(00:00) - Why we keep our tooling current (00:15) - The “project standard” repo is aging (01:30) - Reference guide vs installable skeleton (02:30) - Supporting old and new stacks (versions, tags) (03:30) - Pivot: organize by tool and version, not app (04:30) - Example plan: folders for PHPUnit 11/12 (and beyond) (05:15) - What belongs where? Tests, traits, and context (10:00) - Docker-first thinking; where Horizon config lives (11:15) - Open questions: PHPUnit vs Pest vs “testing” folder (12:15) - Takeaway: evolve the repo as the tools evolve (12:45) - Silly bit Want help making your project as organized as one of our projects?

From a wrong-number job interview to running two Bay Area branches and finally launching his own shop, Josh Fleenor lays out how Pest Pros grew from two trucks to a regional force—anchored in multifamily, a “whatever it takes (the right way)” culture, and promoting leaders early so the company can scale without breaking. You'll hear the origin story, the first-year sprint to $747k, the blue-ocean play in property management, and how hugs, hard conversations, and clear guardrails keep the team winning year after year. You'll hear: The misdial that led to pest control, five years at Clark, and the leap after a dissolved partnership.Why multifamily became the beachhead—and how value + pricing flipped “dirt-cheap” accounts into real margin.The year-one LinkedIn blitz, $700k booked in property management, and testing channels by turning Google off.Culture in practice: “no excuses, find a way,” hugs and vulnerability, and guardrails so “whatever it takes” doesn't burn families out.Hiring slow for core values, promoting early to build leadership layers, and a structure that rotates HQ leaders into satellite offices.Tech & tools: cautious AI (great for SOPs, not for phones—yet), contests, and experiences that bond the team.

Ep 231 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into generational food debates, Boston's rodeo revival, and Texas' fight against an invasive pest — with plenty of banter along the way. First up: A viral reel sparks debate about seed oils and generational food culture. An "almond daughter" confronts her "seed oil grandmother" about pantry staples, but the comment section isn't having it. Natalie and Tara explore how different generations relate to food, why we're so divided on nutrition, and whether we've optimized ourselves into confusion. Then, the rodeo returns to Boston for the first time in nearly 100 years — complete with skyscrapers, city hall plaza, and plenty of PETA protesters. The hosts discuss the logistics of transforming downtown into a rodeo arena, why animal activists are so vocal about rodeos, and whether this cultural moment will stick around. Next, Bose drops a butter-yellow Bluetooth speaker packaged like a stick of butter, and the marketing genius (or missed opportunity) has everyone talking. Plus, a quick debrief on Steven McBee heading to BravoCon and what that means for ag's crossover into mainstream entertainment. Finally, Texas agriculture faces a new threat: the cotton jassid, an invasive leaf hopper spreading fast from Florida to the cotton belt. Tara talks to a local cotton farmer about what this pest could mean for the multi-billion dollar industry — and why Georgia growers are already devastated. BUT WAIT — there's more! Stick around for a bonus mini-interview with Jeff Risley, Executive Director of the Renewable Energy Farmers of America (REFA). If you've ever considered solar, wind, or any renewable project on your farm, this conversation is a must-listen. Jeff breaks down peer-to-peer resources, lease negotiations, succession planning, and how REFA helps farmers make informed decisions about long-term energy opportunities.

Prayer isn't just quiet reflection — it's action, persistence, and bringing our deepest needs before God. Drawing from Luke's Gospel, Pastor Kirt reminded us that Jesus invites us to pray with “shameless persistence,” knocking on heaven's door again and again. Like the friends who tore open a roof to reach Jesus, we're called to bring our burdens and the burdens of others boldly to Him. Even in life's sudden crises and uncertainties, God promises His presence, His Spirit, and His ultimate healing. This message encourages us to discern what truly matters and to persist in prayer, trusting that God hears and responds.
