He flunked Organic Chemistry, bombed his plan to be a doctor, and traded lab coats for liquor bottles — launching a viral wine campaign before he ever knew what “brand strategy” meant. But that failure? It's what turned Alex Strubbe into the marketing mind who believes authenticity sells better than any ad spend.At the University of Texas, Alex was chasing expectations — until life slapped him with a D-minus and an identity crisis. He pivoted to business, interned everywhere, and stumbled into marketing through a campaign called “Will You Accept This Wine?” that blew up. But behind the creativity was chaos: burnout, weight gain, and a version of himself he didn't recognize.A Birthright trip to the Middle East flipped everything. He came home rebuilt — mentally, physically, spiritually — and launched Strubbe Consultants, a business born at the same time he was. His first clients were broke dreamers, not big brands. No ad budgets, no bullshit. Just story, substance, and trust.Now, Strubbe helps founders drop the ego, fire the version of themselves they think they need to be, and build from who they actually are. His motto: “The hoodie converts better than the suit.”Because in business — just like life — pretending doesn't sell. Honesty does.#overcomingimpostersyndrome #marketingtipsforstartups #entrepreneurshiptips #consultingservices #podcastforentrepreneursCHAPTERS:00:00 - Intro00:35 - Alex's Journey to Stubby Consultants09:17 - Biggest Marketing Mistakes Small Businesses11:34 - Identifying Your Target Audience14:33 - Marketing Trends and Changes19:05 - Keeping Up with Competitors21:00 - Overcoming Adversity in Business25:35 - Public Perception of the Kardashians28:02 - Best Business Advice29:10 - Finding Stubby Consultants29:48 - OutroSubscribe to Young Boss with Isabelle Guarino wherever you get your podcasts, and be sure to like, share and follow on Instagram and TikTok.And remember, youth is your power.
Over a 35-year career at the Department of Justice, Jonathan Wroblewski, JD '86, watched the country's stance on criminal sentencing harden, soften, recalibrate, and shift again. One of his early cases at the DOJ, which involved a cross-burning in rural Georgia, sparked a fascination with sentencing policy that shaped the rest of his career. Today, he is one of the country's leading experts on sentencing law and policy.In this episode of Stanford Legal, host Professor Pamela Karlan talks with Wroblewski about crime and punishment, including the evolution of modern sentencing policies. Wroblewski, who has been serving as a visiting instructor at Stanford Law teaching courses on sentencing and AI in criminal justice, also offers a look inside his long career at the DOJ, where Karlan also served two separate stints as a political appointee.The conversation moves between how crime waves shape public attitudes, why some sentencing reforms take hold while others stall, and what happens inside the DOJ when long-standing norms begin to erode. Wroblewski's stories, drawn from decades of work across administrations, bring those shifts into sharper focus.Links:Jonathan Wroblewski >>> Stanford Law pageConnect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>> Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageDiego Zambrano >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford Lawyer Magazine >>> Twitter/X(00:00) Intro to Jonathan Wroblewski's Career (05:01) Evolution of Sentencing Policies (15:01) Shifts in Sentencing Philosophies (25:01) Public Perception and Crime Rates (35:01) Future Perspectives for Fair and Effective Legal Practices Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this week's episode, host Kristin Hayes talks with Kaitlin Raimi about public perceptions of solar geoengineering. Raimi, a social psychologist and associate professor at the University of Michigan, describes how only around 15 or 25 percent of people know what solar geoengineering is, and those who are aware tend to be wary of the concept. She discusses techniques to inform the public about the benefits and pitfalls of solar engineering, avoid political polarization, and prevent solar geoengineering from being seen as the only solution needed to tackle climate change.

Misinformation is aggressively injected into the information ecosystem, and it is readily consumed and adopted by those who are too busy to fully pay attention, leveraging cognitive bias in a distracted society. This media manipulation is often fueled by financial incentives, rewarding so-called experts who deliver false narratives in entertaining and engaging ways. This weighs the heaviest on society when politicians can't agree on policy because they can't agree on facts. To search for the tools of truth, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with Dr. Adam Berinsky, author and the Mitsui Professor of Political Science at MIT. Adam dissects the psychology of misinformation, by examining those who create it with malicious intent, the villains who disseminate it for profit, and the audience most likely to adopt it without question.

Open-source intelligence provides a unique view into how government media surveillance operates — revealing how agencies can misrepresent information both publicly and internally. These manipulations often serve to create a controlled narrative from the inside out. Anthony Miller joins me to discuss his firsthand experience as an Open-Source Intelligence Analyst, how witnessing this shaped his perspective, and what ultimately led him into UAP research and the creation of his podcast, Fire In The Cosmos.

The cases of Jeffrey Epstein, R. Kelly, and Sean "Diddy" Combs, while involving different individuals, share several thematic similarities that center around allegations of sexual misconduct, abuse of power, and exploitation. Below is a comparison based on these common factors:1. Allegations of Sexual Abuse and MisconductJeffrey Epstein: Epstein was charged with running a sex trafficking ring that exploited underage girls, some as young as 14. He used his wealth and influence to recruit vulnerable minors for sexual exploitation over many years.R. Kelly: The R&B singer was convicted of racketeering and sex trafficking, including charges of sexually abusing minors. He operated a scheme where young women and underage girls were lured into abusive situations, often under false pretenses of career opportunities.Sean "Diddy" Combs: Combs is facing a lawsuit accusing him of sexual assault, battery, and abuse over an extended period. The case includes claims that he exploited his influence and power in the entertainment industry to manipulate and control women, though his case lacks the widespread scope of trafficking networks seen in Epstein and R. Kelly's cases.2. Exploitation of Power and InfluenceEpstein: A financier with connections to high-profile political and business elites, Epstein used his wealth, private islands, and powerful network to hide and perpetuate his crimes for years. His connections gave him a shield from scrutiny until his arrest and subsequent death in 2019.R. Kelly: Kelly leveraged his fame and success in the music industry to recruit victims, often promising to mentor them or help their careers. He maintained control over these women through psychological, emotional, and sometimes physical abuse.Combs: As a music mogul and media figure, Combs had considerable influence in the industry, which his accusers claim he used to exploit and manipulate victims. His power dynamic is similar to Kelly's in terms of being a gatekeeper for opportunities in entertainment, making it harder for accusers to speak out without fearing career consequences.3. Systematic Abuse and ControlEpstein: The Epstein case revealed a systematic approach to exploiting young girls, involving an intricate network of recruiters, enablers, and blackmail material used to silence victims. His case exposed a broad system of grooming, blackmail, and exploitation.R. Kelly: Kelly was accused of running an organized, cult-like system where he isolated women, controlled every aspect of their lives, and manipulated them through threats and abuse. His use of enablers to maintain control over his victims parallels Epstein's methods.Combs: While the extent of systematic abuse in Combs' case is still unfolding, the accusations point to a long-term pattern of controlling behavior, manipulation, and sexual misconduct.4. Public Perception and Legal OutcomesEpstein: Epstein's case sparked global outrage, especially after his death in jail under suspicious circumstances, which many believe was tied to the influential figures he associated with. His death left many questions unanswered and led to ongoing legal actions against his associates.R. Kelly: Kelly was convicted and sentenced to 30 years in prison after decades of allegations. His case was marked by long-standing public scrutiny, especially after the "Surviving R. Kelly" documentary brought renewed attention to his abuses.Combs: The legal proceedings against Combs are more recent, and his case is still developing. While he denies the allegations, the case has ignited discussions around abuse in the music industry similar to what followed Kelly's trial.5. Cultural Impact and Public DiscourseAll three cases highlight the abuse of power by wealthy and influential men in positions of authority. Epstein and R. Kelly's cases became focal points for larger conversations around sexual trafficking, abuse in the entertainment industry, and the legal system's failures to protect vulnerable individuals.Combs' case, still in its early stages, may follow a similar trajectory, as more details emerge and public discourse continues around abuse in the music industry.In summary, the similarities between these cases lie in the alleged exploitation of power and influence, systematic abuse, and the use of enablers or networks to perpetuate crimes over extended periods. Each case reveals broader societal issues around accountability, celebrity culture, and the treatment of victims in the justice system.(commercial at 8:55to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Sean Combs' Case Compared to R. Kelly, Jeffrey Epstein: 'Diddy Is Screwed' - NewsweekThe Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn has a notorious history of poor conditions and systemic issues. Over the years, it has faced numerous scandals, particularly involving staffing shortages, violence, and substandard living conditions. Inmates have reported being locked down for over 22 hours a day, with little access to showers, phone calls, or exercise. The facility often experiences long-term lockdowns due to violent incidents, such as a murder in June 2024. The chronic understaffing exacerbates these problems, with correctional officers frequently overworked and unable to adequately manage the facility.Judges have become increasingly critical of the conditions at MDC. In recent rulings, federal judges have even refused to send defendants to the facility, citing "barbaric" conditions that border on cruel and unusual punishment. One judge described the jail as being in a state of "near-perpetual lockdown" due to staffing shortages and widespread contraband, including drugs and weapons.Despite promises from the Bureau of Prisons to address these issues, improvements have been minimal, and MDC remains a symbol of the challenges facing federal detention centers,This is the place that Diddy will now call home for the forseeable future.

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: There is no job report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics this morning. The numbers were reportedly compiled but are not being released, due to the government shutdown. Surely this is a neutral logistical decision on the bureau's part, and the numbers would stay in a file drawer even if they were positive for the Trump administration's economic performance, which most forecasters expected they would not be, or are not.

Tai Lopez is one of the biggest "entrepreneur turned influencers" in the industry, with 2.5 million subscribers on Youtube, 3 million on Instagram, and 1.1 million on Tiktok. The SEC has come forward with allegations against Tai Lopez and his business partner, Alex Mehr, for running a $112 Million Ponzi Scheme and defrauding their investors.
