Podcasts about Rafferty

What are you charging your clients for, “minutes” or “results?” Guest John Rafferty started his own firm, Highfield Law, in the Philadelphia suburbs, specializing in guardianships and estate litigation. He's a convert to flat-fee, results based, billing. No more “billable hours.” And it works. Rafferty is also a tech guy. Zoom, phone, face to face, it's all at the client's choice. Meeting clients where they want is key, and Rafferty finds many prefer some mix of online and in-person contact. It's a new world. (And that goes for hiring online and part-time administrative help, too).  Hear how Rafferty reinvented his legal practice, from billing to remote work, and how he sets his flat-fee rates based on value and the market. Having the confidence to set a rate, and stick to it, is important. It takes courage, but it's worth it. And one more thing, “All funds are due up front.” Does this all sound blunt and, frankly, different? But it can take the focus off the money and hours and let clients focus on getting the results they want.  (Plus, a bonus tip: where to find the best Philly cheesesteaks)  Questions or ideas about solo and small practices? Drop us a line at NewSolo@legaltalknetwork.com     Topics: Flat-fee billing works, if you have the confidence to set your fee and stick to it. Guest John Rafferty went out on his own and established a results-based firm. No more “billable hours.” Meet clients where they are. That doesn't have to be in an office. Clients are busy, too. Sometimes an online video chat or a phone call is better than having someone “drop by the office.” For solo practices, tech matters. Get comfortable with digital platforms and let them speed up the routine tasks. If a flat-fee project takes fewer hours than you estimated because you were efficient, that's pure profit.    Resources: “Ditch the Billable Hour!

Got a question or topic you're interested in? Send us a text!In this episode of Regional Update, we're joined by two agronomists from the central west area of New South Wales: Charlie Mitton from Baker Ag Advantage and Ted O'Rafferty from AGnVET.Charlie and Ted provide a unique dual perspective on the region, covering areas from Forbes and Condobolin to Grenfell. While Charlie predominantly works with straight cropping operations utilizing a four-year rotation of canola, wheat, barley, and pulses, Ted deals mostly with mixed farming enterprises that incorporate livestock, lucerne, and grazing crops. After a late seasonal break in the west, the region is having a good year with warm winter conditions and a lack of frost causing crops to fire through their growth stages.The favourable weather has also brought weed challenges, particularly with annual ryegrass and wild oats showing resistance to common in-crop sprays. Charlie and Ted discuss the importance of robust pre-emergent programs and double break rotations to keep weed numbers low. Charlie and Ted also both made the trip to Geraldton, WA, for WeedSmart Week last year - tune in to hear their thoughts on the event!WeedSmart Week 2026 is heading to Griffith, NSW, August 18-19!

The story of Gerry Rafferty's "Baker Street" has it all: a troubled, ambivalent creator, an unforgettable sax riff whose ownership has spawned controversy for almost 50 years, and a mysterious, compelling lyric. One of Scotland's leading artistic lights, Rafferty, who started as partner to the beloved comedian Billy Connolly in The Humblebums, went on the wow the world with Stealer's Wheel's irresistible mega-hit "Stuck in the middle with you, before torpedoing that early success. He refused to tour, and after going solo, became increasingly withdrawn into an alcoholic death-spiral, which ended with his death at age 63.   Bill and Rich, The Splendid Bohemians relate the story as only they can - with reverence, tempered with their unique perspective. Take a walk with us down BAKER STREET.

Movie reviews number fifty nine!
Diving in with the heavy today we have Otto Preminger's (Tell me that you love me, Junie Moon 1970)
Starring Liza Minnelli and Pete Seeger. A very brave and early film with Queer content, and like Boys in the Band, it can get a bit rough.
next is (The Neon Ceiling 1971) “Your Turning Violet, Violet!” Denise Nickerson, Lee Grant, and Gig Young star in this hot mess of a made for tv film. 
On to (Sleuth 1972) Two extremely British men talk and meanly prank each other for 2 hours and twenty minutes.
Next up is (Day for Night 1973) Here is a film we are told by all film connoisseurs on the planet that we must love, and fine I guess I do just leave me alone about it. This film reminds me of Opening Night 1977 and I am then reminded how much more I liked that film.
Oh look what's next (Rafferty and the Gold dust Twins 1975) Spoiler alert, if you want a free meal at a fine restaurant, just eat all ya want, walk to another table and gently set it on fire. 
Two more left in this batch and here's (Abba the movie 1977) another concert film that got a theatrical release, this one had some big money put into it, annnnnd an actual plot, though it is of the “Freebox” variety.
Finally today we review (Long Journey Back 1978)
Train versus school bus and one students long journey back. So it's obviously light and fun. Cloris mother f'n Leachman is in this films Haus!!!!
thanks for listening friends and if yer new
please write us a review, why not?

Today's poem is The Problem With Early Warnings by Charles Rafferty. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “You've probably heard the boiling frog theory. It goes like this: If a frog is dropped into a pot of tepid water that is slowly heated, the creature won't perceive the danger until it's too late — when the water is finally boiling, and it's cooked to death. But if a frog is dropped directly into boiling water, it will jump out immediately, saving itself. I don't need to tell you that in this analogy, we're the frog. We're in hot water that keeps getting hotter. So why aren't more of us jumping? Why are we slow to react? This analogy suggests that it's because the water didn't start out boiling. We've been slowly acclimating to the increase in temperature — or rather, the increase in danger.” This show is supported by gifts from listeners.

"I said, John, you know, it's a visual art. You don't give me something to do, at least I'm gonna be something to look at." - Morgan Fairchild To celebrate the 100th episode of our podcast 80s TV Ladies, hosts Susan Lambert Hatem and Sharon Johnson welcome actress, activist, and podcaster Morgan Fairchild to discuss her decades-spanning career and how television and auditioning have changed from in-person meetings to self-tapes and fragmented audiences. Fairchild recounts moving from Texas to New York after a young divorce, breaking in through open calls, landing Search for Tomorrow, then relocating to Los Angeles and getting an early role on Rafferty with Patrick McGoohan. She explains shaping layered “bad guy” roles with comedy, including Initiation of Sarah, Flamingo Road (and being labeled “too sexy for TV” by the Moral Majority), and Falcon Crest, where she pushed for a promised incest-repercussions storyline and used fashion as a visual hook.She shares behind-the-scenes stories from Pee-wee's Big Adventure with Paul Reubens, friendships with classic Hollywood stars, her AIDS activism and COVID education, and her new podcast with sister Catherine Hart, Two Bitches from Texas.00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro02:48 How TV Has Changed04:46 Texas to New York Breakthrough07:21 First Hollywood Job Story11:43 Making Characters Pop13:21 Becoming the Power Bitch16:25 Too Sexy for TV18:03 Falcon Crest Storyline Fight21:38 Pee Wee Movie Chaos26:27 Old Hollywood Friendships31:53 Doubts and Survival33:25 Career Doubts Persist34:06 Divas Christmas Set36:20 Sequel Push Lifetime36:55 AIDS Activism Costs39:17 Staying Engaged Today44:29 Podcast With Sister48:08 Guests And Format49:33 Naming The Show53:14 Bonnie And Clyde Double55:28 Finding The Set and Meeting Warren Beatty01:00:15 Podcast Plugs Farewell01:01:55 Call Your Reps01:02:23 Next Series TeaseAUDIOOGRAPHYFind Morgan Fairchild at Morganfairchild.comListen to Morgan Fairchild and Catherine Hart at their website Two Bitches from Texas or wherever you find your podcasts.Check out Morgan Fairchild's book, Morgan Fairchild Super Looks, at eBayFind out more about Catherine Hart's acting classes at her website Heart and SoulConnect with 80s TV Ladies at 80sTVLadies.comTake action at 5Calls.org  PROMO DEALSGet awesome sheets and pajamas at COZY EARTH.Be sure to use the promo code: 80STVLADIES.Happy Shopping!MARCH DEALS BLOCK80s TV Ladies deals and discounts:Cozy Earth (21% Off)

Great result in the week, can they follow it up at home? Oh yes they can! Archie, Chris, James and Seve have the pleasure of discussing a performance for the ages against a very strong Cardiff team.The game. It started quickly and didn't relent from there. A chance created from nothing early on set the tone, and even a Watts sitter going straight at the goalkeeper didn't quell a constant flow of opportunities for both teams. A great move and a fantastic finish from Tolaj, Pepple with a second, set up a crazy run of goals where every attack from both teams resulted in a finish. 3–2 at half-time and it could have been more. Things slowed down a little in the second half but, as in the week, the further the game went on, the more Argyle dominated. Two set-pieces, a perfect penalty and, who would have thought we'd be saying this, Ross unplayable from a perfect corner. Perfect is the word. What a day for those home fans who have not had the best of seasons.Part 2 and talk of two potential games at Wembley does start to feel possible. Momentum, positivity and team spirit really seem to matter, and even the most negative grinch is excited for a quarter-final at Luton in the AutoWindscreensPizzaTu Cup. And a huge shout-out to Argyle Women for a nervy (in a great way) win.What a week. COYG Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In 1982, the Jane Fonda Workout became the best-selling home video of all time. Over decades, it and its 22 follow ups would spawn a fitness empire, sell more than 17 million copies, and transform Fonda into a leg-warmer-clad exercise guru. And 40 years after its initial release, when the COVID pandemic hit, the workout had a moment yet again. People began doing it alone and on Zoom, tweeting about it, writing about it. So when Jane Fonda agreed to talk to us, we set out to do an episode about it—but it did not go as planned.On Part 1 of a special two-part Decoder Ring, originally released in 2020, we explore the decades-long relationship of Jane Fonda and Leni Cazden, a fraught friendship that birthed the VHS workout that changed the world. It's a story of creation, fame, forgiveness, trauma, betrayal, survival, politics, and exercise. You'll hear from Jane Fonda and Leni Cazden, the brain behind the workout, and Shelly McKenzie, author of Getting Physical: The Rise of Fitness Culture in America.In two weeks we'll return with Part 2: the nitty gritty story of the bestselling VHS tape of all time.This episode was written by Willa Paskin. It was edited and produced by Benjamin Frisch. We had research assistance from Cleo Levin. Decoder Ring is produced by Katie Shepherd, Max Freedman, and Evan Chung, our supervising producer.
