Podcasts about quarters

On this episode, we're diving into a story that blends nostalgia, music, and the origins of esports — a follow-up to one of the most beloved documentaries in gaming history. I'm talking about Arcades & Love Songs: The Ballad of Walter Day.This new film is the feature directorial debut from Oscar-winning producer Ed Cunningham — best known for Undefeated and The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters. If you're a fan of the latter, you're in for a real treat, because this film brings us back into the world of Walter Day — the iconic star of The King of Kong, and the man often credited as the father of esports.Now 74, Walter is taking center stage once again in this musical documentary that follows his legal battle to protect his legacy, all while chasing a long-held dream: recording and performing the rock-opera love songs that have been echoing in his mind since his heart was broken back in the golden days of the arcade.This episode features not one but two great interviews — first with Ed Cunningham, the director of Arcades & Love Songs, and then with the legend himself, Walter Day. We'll talk about everything from the making of the film, to Walter's unique musical vision, to what this journey has meant for him personally.So whether you're a longtime fan of The King of Kong, a lover of indie film, or just curious about this one-of-a-kind story, stick around — you won't want to miss this.

You crushed your quota. Commission check hits the account.  Your first instinct? Celebrate! You earned it, right? Not quite. You've earned a reward, sure. But if every check disappears faster than a cold call prospect can hang up the phone, then you're just renting a lifestyle. Here's the truth: Top sales pros don't just sell like professionals—they manage their money like professionals. They know the high of a commission check can't replace long-term financial freedom. I've got the financial low-down. 1. Don't Spend It All in One Place—Or All at Once When a big check hits, it's tempting to splurge. New watch. Fancy dinner. Extra drinks on you. But here's the catch: commission highs come and go. Quarters fluctuate. Markets shift. Now more than ever, you can't treat every paycheck like a lottery win. Try this instead: Split your check. A solid money rule: 50% to lifestyle, 30% to savings/investments, 20% to debt. Set auto-transfers. Remove temptation. Have a percentage automatically move to savings or investments the minute you get paid. Living below your means is how you avoid feeling broke—even during dry spells. 2. Build the "Oh Crap" Fund Sales is high-risk, high-reward. One quarter, you're crushing it, the next you're staring down a dry pipeline and a mortgage payment. Enter your emergency fund. This isn't optional—it's survival. Ideally, you want 3–6 months of living expenses saved in a separate account, untouched unless it's a true money emergency. Having this cushion keeps you from making desperate decisions when things get tight—and keeps your mind clear to prospect fanatically. 3. Debt Doesn't Care About Your Commission Credit cards. Car payments. Student loans. Debt is a silent killer of long-term wealth. And the more you make, the more it sneaks in. Why? Because it's easy to think, “I'll just pay it off with my next check.” Then the check comes. And goes. Start taking control: List your debts. Highest interest first. Choose a strategy. Snowball (smallest balance first) or Avalanche (highest interest first). Stick to it. Automate payments. No missed due dates. No excuses. Pay with cash. And stick to it. If you can't afford to pay for it all now. You can't afford it, period. Freedom means having money that belongs to you—not a credit card company. 4. Your Future Self is Counting on You It's easy to feel invincible when you're 25, 30, 35—closing deals, stacking checks. But time moves fast. And if you don't start investing for the long haul, future-you will be making cold calls at 70. Start with your 401(k) if your company offers one—especially if there's a match (that's free money). If not, look into IRAs or Roth IRAs. Even small monthly contributions grow massively over time thanks to compounding interest. The earlier you start, the easier it is. The later you start, the harder it gets. 5. Plan, Don't Wing It You wouldn't wing a sales call with a high-value prospect, right? The same goes for your finances. You need a plan. Set financial goals. Pay off $10K in debt. Save $20K this year. Max out your Roth IRA. Track your spending. Use an app or spreadsheet. Know where every dollar goes. Meet with a financial advisor. Let a pro help map the path. Sales success without financial structure is just noise. You work too hard to have nothing to show for it in the end. 6. Discipline is Freedom This isn't about deprivation. It's about choice. When your money's right, you can: Stop chasing bad deals. Invest in coaching, property, or your own business. Sleep well, knowing you're not one missed quota away from panic. The people who look rich often aren't. The people who stay rich? They play the long game. Protect the Bank Account You already know how to grind. You already know how to win. Now it's time to build a life where that effort creates lasting freedom—not just fleeting dopamine hits.

Trucking Insurance is tricky! It is also typically in the top 5 expenses for a trucking company. For Haulin Assets it is the 4th biggest expense. There are a lot of factors that go into getting the best policy and the best pricing. In this episode we go over what you need to know as an Owner Operator or a Fleet Owner to make sure you are keeping that insurance expense as low as possible.  What to Expect in Episode 174 We just completed our insurance renewal so insurance is fresh on my mind and now is a great time to talk about it. Here are some of the topics we discuss. The Biggest Contributors To The Cost Of Your Policy Your loss run report Your CAB (Central Analysis Bureau) Report Drivers Who Are The Key Players Insurance Carriers Underwriter Insurance Agencies/Agent We spend the bulk of the episode in this section and go into some pretty extensive detail about who each one is, what their role is and we give some best practices for how you should interact with them. What You Will Need To Provide For A Quote Get everything to your agents 45 days before your policy expires. Here is what they will typically need. 4 Quarters of IFTA Returns Loss Runs for the last 3 years Updated Equipment List Updated Driver List Your Current COI (Certificate of Insurance) The timing of when you sign on the bottom line and bind your policy is critical. Make sure you listed to the episode to know when you should do this and what you will need to do it.  Getting the best price on your insurance is something that does not happen overnight. It takes you being intentional about several things. You have to work on the things we talk about throughout the episode all year long to make sure to get the best price possible and are able to control your costs. Remember, trucking is a low margin business and profits are earned by the penny. A dollar you save in expense is a dollar that hits your profit line.

TCW Podcast Episode 227 - Donkey Kong   Donkey Kong, a game and character that stands as one of the foundational elements of video game history, has a popular narrative with some inaccuracies that need correction. Thanks to the efforts of Kate Willaert and Norman Caruso, we can better understand the influences and origins of Donkey Kong. Nintendo's use of hardware from another game, Radar Scope, imposed technical limitations that prevented them from securing the desired Popeye license.

They break down what went into this monumental decision and give the young hooper advice as he takes his career to the next level. Next, they shift over to cover all things that went down in the NBA last night starting with Adam Silver announcing that the NBA is considering switching to 10 minute quarters and leading a discussion on how that would change the game before reacting to Victor Wembanyama going dark and showing aggression for the first time in his NBA Career by charging Ivica Zubac in the Spurs loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. The Gil's Arena Crew then break down the Golden State Warriors HUGE Win over the Oklahoma City Thunder and debate if this win proves the team doesn't need to make a move for someone like Jimmy Butler before reacting to another 50 burger from Shai Gilgeous Alexander, cementing the All Star PG as the favorite for NBA MVP. Finally, No Chill Gil and the GA Crew react to Draymond Green calling out Karl Anthony Town's poor defense on Nikola Jokic in the New York Knicks win over The Denver Nuggets and debate if the Knicks & KAT aren't getting enough respect this season.

GG Hawkins and Jason Hellerman talk with Seth Gordon, the celebrated writer-director behind Back in Action, Horrible Bosses, and The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters. Seth shares the joys and challenges of creating large-scale films, balancing action and comedy, and his insights into leadership and creativity. This episode is packed with practical advice for emerging filmmakers and candid reflections on Seth's career journey. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins, Jason Hellerman, and Seth Gordon discuss: How Seth approaches directing large-scale films while staying focused on the story's essence Why removing distractions is key to immersing yourself in the creative process The importance of starting with the story and building everything else around it Balancing meticulous planning with room for spontaneity and collaboration on set Why aspiring filmmakers should focus on creating something deeply meaningful, rather than chasing external recognition Memorable Quotes: “My phone is always off. I don't even answer the phone anymore... The interruptions throw me off... What works for me is to disappear into a tiny sort of working environment and then get lost in one detail at a time.” “Make something. Don't make it about a film festival or about getting recognition. Make it about something you care about deeply.” “It didn't start with a crew of 300 and dealing with the Thames river and weather in England and whatever. It started with a piece of paper and excitement about a story.” Resources: Seth Gordon on IMDb Back in Action Trailer Find No Film School everywhere: On the Web: No Film School Facebook: No Film School on Facebook Twitter: No Film School on Twitter YouTube: No Film School on YouTube Instagram: No Film School on Instagram Send us an email with questions or feedback: podcast@nofilmschool.com Learn more about your ad choices.

On today's episode, I talk to director Seth Gordon. Originally on the path to be an architect, Seth's life took a detour into documentary filmmaking when he picked up a camera while teaching abroad in Kenya. After working in different positions in filming and editing, he eventually made his acclaimed doc The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters, about rivals in the world of competitive Donkey Kong playing. From there, Seth became a comedy director, directing some of the best sitcoms of the 21st century including Parks and Rec, Community, The Office, The Goldbergs and more, as well as films such as Four Christmases, Horrible Bosses, Baywatch and, his most recent film, which just debuted on Netflix last week, Back In Action starring Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz!

It's about to get deep. I'm not sure it's because I'm on Day 12 of a 21-Day Fast or if the Spirit is speaking or both, but today's episode is extremely personal. The 4-Quarters of today's SHOW includes… MOTIVATION & MINDSET. “Only when you are brave enough to explore the darkness will you discover the infinite power of our light.” Check out my coaching prompts and action steps for this one. HEALTHSET. Updates on my 21-Day Fast and why it's extremely hard, but good, right now. I also share the 2 reasons WHY I'm doing this fast and the 5 questions I'm praying for. LEADERSHIP. Today, I want to go deep on how to lead with vision, not fear. This includes setting a clear vision for your business or career or team rather than reacting to challenges with anxiety or short term fixes. Additionally, I will share 5-things fear does to you and discuss how to flip fear into fuel. Lastly, I share the power and importance of a “90-Day Wonder” and talk about how it can help you grow your influence, income, and impact. This is an exercise I have been doing for a long time and has been instrumental in keeping focus on the most important tasks on hand, along with keeping the vision of where we are going also. This concludes with a MUST-DO action step that will significantly help your business/career, bottom-line, and IMPACT grow. PERSONAL. There are two-things I want to share & discuss today. First and foremost, I want to share the action-steps that our team and community (this includes you!) will be taking to “give-back” and “BE THE LIGHT” up in Los Angeles, that has suffered utter decimation and still battling. There are several activations underway that you can get involved with and ALL are in today's IMPACT SHOW. We are calling this entire activation: “OPERATION IMPACT, Rebuild-LA.” WE want to help “10” families who have been displaced are in need with finances or supplies. WE want to raise funds to completely rebuild 1-gym up there in the heart of Los Angeles so that a new “Sanctuary” can be returned and birthed up there. I believe with all of our sponsors, vendors, and Community (here on the podcast as well), that we can do this. We will be doing a Virtual Speaker's Summit in early March to raise even more funds. We will have 20-world-class speakers sharing their stories of inspiration to motivate & inspire you. Additionally, Drew Brees just committed to speak at this as well to hopefully raise even more funds. This will be completely by donation and I'm confident and hopeful that we can raise a lot of money starting NOW for the virtual event. More details to come but you can contribute to the Durkin IMPACT Foundation NOW [501-c-3, tax-deductible] So three great initiatives we are underway with and hope between NOW and the next 90-Days, that we can raise a lot of money to give back to those who need it so desperately right now. Please see BELOW for ways to donate. Lastly, Momma Durkin. Please pray for her. My 91-year old Mom doesn't have much time left and she sure could use your prayers right now. I am heading down to see her in Orlando this week and can't wait to give her a big bear-hug again. Thanks for tuning-in.
