Jon Gustin didn't set out to be a parenting voice. He became one the hard way. In this conversation, Jon talks honestly about early exposure to alcohol, years of running from anxiety, and what happened when becoming a father forced him to stop numbing and start paying attention. He shares what it was like to quit drinking, face anxiety head-on, and rebuild his marriage and inner life while raising young kids. There's no dramatic turnaround story here—just the quiet, difficult work of changing patterns so they don't get passed down. From there, the conversation turns to modern childhood. Screens. Phones. Messy houses. Kids growing up too fast. Jon makes a simple but urgent case: childhood needs protection—not through fear or control, but through attention. Paying attention to what kids are doing, who they're becoming, and whether they're being pushed into an adult world too soon. This episode is for parents who sense something is off, who don't want to overreact or opt out of modern life—but who also refuse to sleepwalk through it. Thoughtful, steady, and deeply reassuring.

What if democracy can't survive sound money, because it runs on promises it can't fund?Knut Svanholm sits down with Mike Peterson in El Salvador, fresh from a formal night at the presidential palace with President Nayib Bukele. Phones taken, press everywhere, and a president who feels unnervingly normal to Bitcoiners. Knut's take is blunt, El Salvador may have accidentally voted “one of us” into office, and the results feel like the inverse of clown world.Then the conversation turns to the cage, fiat currency. They break down how money printing, capital gains tax, and government overreach work together to punish anyone trying to use sound money as an inflation hedge. If you have ever felt like you are being taxed for refusing to play the inflation game, this will hit a nerve.From Centro Histórico to El Zonte, they get practical about what Bitcoin adoption actually looks like when it is not just “number go up” technology. A circular economy takes time, merchant by merchant orange pill work, and more people using the Lightning Network for everyday payments instead of treating Bitcoin like a museum piece.They widen out to Madeira and Prague, where Bitcoin communities are forming in their own ways. You will hear why BTCmap.org (https://btcmap.org/) matters, why Prague gets called the Bitcoin capital of Europe, and why Vexl is one of the most interesting peer-to-peer tools right now for building a web of trust when rules tighten.Finally, Knut leans into his anarcho-capitalism lens, the Shawshank Redemption metaphor, and the mindset behind “you can just do things.” If this episode made you uncomfortable, good, subscribe, share it with the friend still asking permission.-Bitcoin Beach TeamConnect and Learn more about Knut SvanholmX: https://x.com/knutsvanholm YT:  @bitcoininfinityshow     Support and follow Bitcoin Beach:X: https://www.twitter.com/BitcoinBeach IG: https://www.instagram.com/bitcoinbeach_sv TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@livefrombitcoinbeach Web: https://www.bitcoinbeach.com Browse through this quick guide to learn more about the episode:00:00 - Intro01:43 - What is Bukele like in person?03:52 - Why do Bitcoiners say fiat currency is built on money printing?05:38 - Why does Bukele push circular economy adoption? 07:47 - Why do incentives matter more than democracy?10:18 - Why doesn't Bitcoin adoption happen overnight? 14:02 - How did Free Madeira begin?

Most gyms slow down during the holidays. Phones go quiet. Leads go cold. But what if this season isn't a setback at all? What if it's where consistency is actually built?Welcome to Gym Marketing Made Simple, the podcast that strips away the noise and focuses on what truly creates steady momentum for boutique gyms. Each episode breaks marketing and sales systems down into clear, repeatable steps, so growth feels structured, not reactive.Episode HighlightsIn this episode, Sherman Merricks shares how gyms can stay visible, relevant, and supportive during the holiday season, without feeling pushy. The conversation centers on maintaining real connections with leads and members, using intentional follow-ups, and relying on simple CRM systems to keep nothing from falling through the cracks. Rather than pulling back during the holidays, this episode shows how thoughtful outreach can strengthen trust and position the gym as a steady presence when routines are disrupted.Episode OutlineWhy the holiday season is a missed opportunity for many boutique gymsHow to respond when prospects say they'll be unavailable for weeksUsing CRM systems to track lead timelines, notes, and next stepsCreating holiday-themed follow-ups that feel personal, not automatedThe role of free resources in keeping prospects engaged without pressureInviting prospects into the gym through events and community touchpointsSharing real testimonials and practical holiday tips to build credibilityMeasuring which outreach methods actually get replies and conversationsEpisode Chapters00:00 Intro00:05 Holiday Marketing Strategies for Boutique Fitness Gyms02:21 Maintaining Engagement During the Holidays06:08 Creative Follow-Up Tactics10:23 Leveraging Testimonials and TipsAction TakenSet manual follow-up tasks in the CRM for leads who are unavailable during the holidays, including return dates and context notesSchedule a specific follow-up call or intro session immediately when a prospect provides a return dateSend themed holiday video follow-ups, such as short personalized videos, to keep communication human and memorableCreate a free holiday guide (e.g., a 30-day plan or strategies to stay consistent through the holidays) as a downloadable resourceInvite prospects and members to holiday events to reinforce the gym as a welcoming communityReview all leads from the past six weeks and run focused phone and text follow-upsTrack which outreach formats generate the strongest responses and share winning scripts with the teamCollect and publish real member testimonials along with simple holiday-specific tipsConclusionThe holidays don't require a different strategy, they require better follow-through. This episode reinforces that consistency, clarity, and personal connection matter even more when schedules are unpredictable. When gyms stay present instead of pulling back, they earn trust that lasts well beyond the season.CTAIf this episode helped reframe how the holidays can work for a gym, subscribe to Gym Marketing Made Simple and share this episode with a gym owner who usually slows down this time of year.Supporting Information

In this tiny bite-sized episode, I'm sharing a moment that absolutely cracked me open: standing in my kitchen, impatiently waiting 40 seconds—FORTY SECONDS—for a mason jar to fill with water. I caught myself thinking, “Ugh, I wish I could go do something else while this fills.” And then I had to laugh because… where the hell was I going?This episode is a gentle (and slightly heartbreaking) reminder that so many of us are living in fast-forward, racing from one task to the next, missing the tiny moments that actually make up a life. I talk about overstimulation, multitasking, the endless to-do list, why kids (and dogs!) just want our presence, and why slowing down feels impossible—yet is desperately needed.If you've been rushing your days away, this one is for you. Slow down. Pet the babies—human and furry. This time won't last.What's Covered:⏳ The 40-second moment that exposed how rushed we all are

In this episode, I sit down with Bill Brady — entrepreneur, storyteller, and the mind behind two of the most influential kid‑tech brands in the country. We dive into the origins of Gab and Troomi, the mission to keep kids safe in a digital world, and what it really takes to build a company that challenges an entire industry. Bill opens up about fundraising, supply chain battles, parenting in the smartphone era, and why technology should be a tool, not a tyrant. It's a conversation about leadership, purpose, and the future of tech for the next generation.

If the Sew Much More Podcast has played a role in your journey in any way, I hope you'll consider participating. Here are the three questions: What changed for you after listening to, or being on, the Sew Much More Podcast? That change might have been practical—or it might have been internal. Second: What challenge were you facing at the time, and where are you now? That challenge might still be ongoing, or it might be something you've moved through. And third: What one idea or moment stayed with you longer than you expected? Sometimes it's the smallest insight or someone says things a certain way that makes the biggest difference.   The best way to share your story is by leaving a voicemail using SpeakPipe.   Here is the link to SpeakPipe   A few tips so your message sounds great: Please use your phone, not your computer. Phones tend to produce much better audio quality. Find a quiet space where you won't be interrupted. Aim for 60 to 90 seconds. If you're unsure, err on the shorter side. At the beginning of your message, please share your first name and, if you're comfortable, your location. If you would prefer not to leave a voicemail, please send me an email to info@csfrl.org.

If you're looking for an uncommon thinker, how about a tech industry veteran developing and selling landline phones in 2025 — and selling out of them in the process. Chet Kittleson is the co-founder and CEO of Tin Can, a Seattle startup making Wi-Fi enabled landline phones designed to let kids talk to friends and family with just their voices. No screens, no AI. GeekWire recognized Kittleson as one of our Uncommon Thinkers for 2025, a program presented in partnership with Greater Seattle Partners honoring inventors, scientists, and entrepreneurs transforming their industries in unexpected ways. In this episode, he talks about the moment at school pickup that sparked the idea, why his own kids don't own devices, what happened when he eliminated screens on family road trips, and the $12 million seed round led by Greylock that will fuel the company's next chapter. Related stories: Tin Can dials up another $12M to meet soaring demand for landline-style phone for kids Uncommon Thinkers: Tin Can is Chet Kittleson’s calling, and a way to foster deeper connections Uncommon Thinkers: Hope for the future from our 2025 honorees With GeekWire co-founder Todd Bishop; edited by Curt Milton.

SpaceX said it's working with NASA and the US Space Force to track the remains of the object. -Bloomberg reported on Wednesday that Honda will suspend production in Japan on January 5 and 6. (Honda didn't specify the affected factories.) In addition, all three of the automaker's Guangqi Honda Automobile plants in China will shut down from December 29 to January 2. -Gizmodo noticed that Trump Mobile is selling these other brands' phones for the same cost, or sometimes more, than the same refurbs from other retailers.

Consumers are being warned of a price hike for technology like phones and computers due to the rise of AI creating a shortage of computer chips. The cost for parts like RAMs have also sky rocketed with some products already costing double, or triple, what they did a year ago. "There's only so much production capability on the planet, and what we're seeing is where these chips are fabricated, they are diverting their production away from the RAM that's used in our consumer devices to the high bandwidth memory that is being used in the AI data centres," Gorilla Tech CEO Paul Spain told Andrew Dickens.

As the year winds down, December can feel like the busiest, loudest, most exhausting month in property management. Phones ringing nonstop, urgent maintenance requests, owners wanting zero vacancy over Christmas, and you barely remembering what a proper lunch break looks like. Somewhere in the middle of the chaos, you probably promised yourself that this year would be different.In this episode I chat about what the end of year really looks like for property managers and why it so often ends in burnout, guilt, and working through holidays that were meant to be for rest. Drawing on my lived experience, I share practical, realistic strategies that help property managers protect their time, support their clients properly, and actually switch off without that constant “what am I forgetting?” feeling.This episode is especially for Property Manager's who love their work but are tired of sacrificing family time, presence, and energy just to keep everything running. These 5 practical hacks help property managers manage end of year stress, set clear boundaries, and stay organised in a high pressure property management job. “  You are allowed to rest. You don't need to earn it by crawling to the finish line, half dead. You've done enough. You are enough. It's the holiday season. Choose calm, choose boundaries, and most of all choose you and time with your family.” - Kylie Walker We cover:Why blocking out a dedicated pre closure prep day is the most effective way to reduce holiday stress in property managementHow automating holiday communications creates clarity, professionalism, and stronger boundaries with tenants and ownersA simple maintenance triage system that helps property managers respond to urgent maintenance issues without panic or holiday burnoutHow email and communication templates reduce decision fatigue and save hours during the end of year rushWhy planning your first day back before logging off helps property managers avoid post holiday overwhelm and ease back into workHow giving yourself permission to rest and set boundaries leads to better focus, better service, and less burnout in property managementKylie's Resources:Property Management Growth School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/TPM-BDMSchool Digital Marketing School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/digitalschool That Property Mum Courses: https://www.thatpropertymum.com.au/courses/ The PM Accelerate Membership: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/accelerate Book a Strategy Call with Kylie: https://calendly.com/kylie-tpm/coaching-call Kolmeo: https://kolmeo.com/ Find out about our Done for You Lead Generation - https://calendly.com/kylie-tpm/done-for-you-leads-discovery-call35 AI Prompts to help you Grow your Business on Social Media:

Phones have quietly become one of the biggest threats to real connection, and in this episode of Secret Life, we unpack phubbing—the habit of choosing your phone over the person right in front of you. From partners texting while you're talking to kids glued to their screens 24/7, this conversation goes beyond annoyance and into the emotional damage phubbing creates: disconnection, resentment, and feeling invisible in your own relationships. If you're exhausted by competing with a device—or realizing you might be doing the same—this episode names the problem and challenges what we've all been normalizing for far too long._____If you or anyone you know is struggling with addiction, depression, trauma, sexual abuse or feeling overwhelmed, we've compiled a list of resources at secretlifepodcast.com______ To share your secret and be a guest on the show email secretlifepodcast@icloud.com_____SECRET LIFE'S TOPICS INCLUDE:addiction recovery, mental health, alcoholism, drug addiction, sex addiction, love addiction, OCD, ADHD, dyslexia, eating disorders, debt & money issues, anorexia, depression, shoplifting,  molestation, sexual assault, trauma, relationships, self-love, friendships, community, secrets, self-care, courage, freedom, and happiness._____Create and Host Your Podcast with the same host we use - RedCircle_____Get your copy of SECRET LIFE OF A HOLLYWOOD SEX & LOVE ADDICT -- Secret Life Novel or on Amazon______HOW CAN I SUPPORT THE SHOW?Tell Your Friends & Share Online!Follow, Rate & Review: Apple Podcasts | SpotifyFollow & Listen iHeart | Stitcher | Google Podcasts | Amazon | PandoraSpread the word via social mediaInstagramTwitterFacebook#SecretLifePodcastDonate - You can also support the show with a one-time or monthly donation via PayPal (make payment to secretlifepodcast@icloud.com) or at our WEBSITE.Connect with Brianne Davis-Gantt (@thebriannedavis)Official WebsiteBrianne's Coaching WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterConnect with Mark Gantt (@markgantt)Main WebsiteDirecting WebsiteMark Gantt Coaching WebsiteInstagramFacebook• • TwitterSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/secret-life/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode of the Nifty Thrifty Dentists Podcast, Dr. Glenn Vo sits down with Ali Soufi, Founder & CEO of DocSites, to break down why missed phone calls and poor website lead capture are costing dental practices new patients... and how AI tools can help fix it. Ali shares insights from working with thousands of dental offices and explains how voicemail, after-hours calls, and unanswered website questions create friction in the new patient journey. He also introduces DocSites' AI Support Suite, which includes AI phone answering, AI web chat, and a lead management dashboard designed to help practices capture and follow up on leads without adding staff. If your practice is spending money on dental marketing but still losing opportunities due to missed calls or website bounce-offs, this episode is a must-watch.

On this episode of Lipps Service, Scott sits down with The Paradox for a fast-paced, nostalgia-packed conversation that traces the band's meteoric rise to fame, beginning with Eric's early days, the origins of the group, and their influences: from Blink-182 to New Found Glory. They openly reflect on getting kicked out of his first band and the evolution of pop-punk. The band recounts their viral breakthrough, including a surprising DM from Jack White's team, and introduces listeners to Percy while discussing the moment they quit their day jobs to pursue music full-time. They dive into building community and sharing wild stories involving Lil Nas X, Billie Joe Armstrong, and even Subaru. This episode is not one to miss on Lipps Service.

Some houses are noisy because they're old. This one was noisy because something inside refused to stay quiet. A family moves into a pristine, newly built home — the kind where everything still smells like fresh paint and untouched carpet. But just beyond the driveway sits a historical cemetery, its stones weathered, its stories forgotten. And soon, the dead begin reminding them they are not alone. Shadows move through rooms that should be empty. A voice answers from the silence. Phones scream without warning. And when mother and daughter begin hearing the same swirling, pulsing sound in the middle of the night, it becomes clear that whatever is trying to reach them… isn't doing it gently. But the most terrifying moment doesn't involve footsteps, whispers, or flickering lights — it arrives in the form of two women no longer fully human, appearing at the edge of sleep with a desperation that feels almost intentional. Are they spirits tied to the cemetery? Echoes of past lives trapped between worlds? Or something far more personal trying to make itself known? #realghoststories #trueghoststory #paranormal #hauntedhouse #newbuildhaunting #sleepparalysis #cemetery #ghoststoriesonline #scarypodcast #hauntedhome #demonicencounter #unexplained Love real ghost stories?

I've been working on my relationship with my phone, on and off, for years. Sometimes, I use it as a tool. Sometimes, it feels like it's using me as a tool. Genuine + deeply rooted ad fatigue, traumatic events sprung upon me, most content is some form of engagement/rage/anxiety/fear bait, brain rot + ai slop, trolls + bot accounts. Misinformation + disinformation campaigns financed by literal government entities. It's disheartening to feel like I am the tool being used, and I think I am finally ready to confront this toxic relationship.
