We hear from the Championship head coach Paul Maurice, as he reflects on the banner going up and Aaron Ekblad. Are the Dolphins dumpster fires… Jaelan Phillips doesn't seem to think so. The Miami Heat face off against the Spurs today in their 3rd Preseason game, can Kel'el Ware put a masterclass up against Wemby again… Tobin sure hopes so. We lose Leroy to Cleveland and of course Tobin must let him know about it. Tobin and Brittney get into the Mixed Bag as we hear from; Bam Adebayo, Deon Sander, and Minkah Fitzpatrick. It is hour 3 and we get Leroy back, and we talk about the Heat and how Tobin's show poniness is left at the door when he goes to the Heat games. Tobin shares reports that the word coming from the Dolphins is that it doesn't look like we will be getting firings anytime soon. We play our favorite Wednesday game Rats Off A Ship!

    Derek Dombeck is a seasoned real estate investor, national speaker, and international bestselling author who has navigated the ups and downs of real estate since 2003. Known for his expertise in creative deal structuring, private lending, and relationship-based investing, Derek has completed thousands of transactions while helping investors gain control over their financial futures. Today, he leads Generational Wealth, where he teaches others how to build lasting legacies through intentional business and personal vision.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.     Key Takeaways Learn to operate without banks by mastering creative deal structures and private lending. Building relationships—not relying on institutions—provides flexibility and resilience in any market. Investors must prioritize communication and integrity to maintain trust with lenders and partners. Success is rooted in having a clear vision for life first, and building business strategies around that. Control and freedom come from understanding “why” you want wealth, not just “how” to achieve it.     Topics From Losing Everything to Creative Control Derek started in the early 2000s with bank financing but lost nearly everything in the 2008 crash. Learned to rebuild through creative financing and raising private capital instead of relying on institutions. Founded a private lending business averaging 20–25 loans per month, lending over $3 million monthly. Why Relationships Beat Banks Institutional lending is transactional—private lending is relational. Investors who communicate transparently with private lenders can work through tough times and maintain trust. Reputation and reliability are worth more than a few basis points in interest savings. Raising Private Capital Raised over $25 million by building genuine connections and paying investors before himself. Early mistake: not developing a network soon enough. Now teaches investors to focus on building long-term trust and a solid track record. Creating a Vision-Led Life Entrepreneurs often trade a 9-to-5 job for a “5-to-9” grind—without defining what they actually want. Derek emphasizes creating a written life vision first, then building a business to support it. The question isn't how much money you want, but why you want it—and how it supports the life you envision. Rethinking Goals and Ownership Many chase status symbols (like beach houses or luxury cars) without questioning their purpose. Derek explains how experiences can be enjoyed today without waiting decades—like renting a dream home instead of owning it. True wealth is freedom to live intentionally, not accumulation of “stuff.”

    Neal Shah's journey, showcases the impact of caregiving on individual lives and the broader healthcare system. Raised in a close-knit immigrant family, Neal's values were shaped early by the examples set by his parents and grandparents. After building an impressive career in finance, a series of personal experiences as a caregiver—first supporting his grandfather through end-of-life care, then facing his wife's severe illness—transformed his outlook and priorities. He became intimately aware of both the emotional toll and practical challenges caregivers face and the systemic flaws that make caregiving in America so difficult.These experiences motivated Neal to leave his high-powered finance career to focus on creating social impact. He founded Carry Ya, a not-for-profit project that connects families in need with qualified, motivated student caregivers at affordable rates, disrupting the expensive, often impersonal agency model. Neal is also the author of the book "Insured to Death," which exposes the failures of the American health insurance system, and he launched Counterforce Health, an AI-powered platform that empowers patients and caregivers to fight insurance denials. Neal's innovative, empathetic responses to systemic challenges underline his commitment to honoring caregivers as the backbone of the healthcare system and ensuring that their support, as well as that of care recipients, is financially and emotionally sustainable.About Neal:America's Chief Elder Officer. CEO of CareYaya Health Technologies and Chairman of Counterforce Health. Working hard to improve healthcare. Author of #1 Bestseller in Health Policy, "Insured to Death: How Health Insurance Screws Over Americans - And How We Take It Back". After a successful career as a $250 million hedge fund manager, deeply personal caregiving experiences inspired a pivot to social entrepreneurship. Now, determined to transform care delivery through technology.Building a rapidly-growing tech startup to expand access to affordable care. Pioneering cutting-edge AI applications and neurotechology to fundamentally elevate quality of life for those needing care. Motivated by creativity and humanitarian progress.Leveraging experiences guiding multi-billion dollar investments to make an impact on improving care for our most vulnerable populations. Leading with both heart and analytical rigor.Building unrivaled technical capabilities and strategic partnerships to establish CareYaya as America's leading launchpad for care innovation.

    Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show for a second time: Ritual Abuse, MK ULTRA, and organized abuse survivor, overcomer and thriver, content creator and podcast host of her own YouTube channel called “From PTSD to a Graduate Degree', newly published writer and author, artist and creative, scientific innovator and revolutionary, my dear friend, and a woman pushing the boundaries on overcoming fear and trauma: Amy Berger Born in Whitestone, New York in 1977, Amy emerged from a childhood shadowed by profound adversity. Raised in a severely dysfunctional home, she endured a mother's untreated PTSD and hoarding, alongside a father's emotional abuse and drug addiction. In 1999, a seismic shift occurred when Amy began recovering suppressed memories of additional sexual abuse by family members and babysitters, followed by revelations of ritual abuse and MK ULTRA programming. This turning point split her life into two: before memories and after memories.A few years ago, seeking distraction from fear, Amy made a life-altering decision to return to school. Now a senior biology major, she is poised to pursue a double master's in biotechnology and artificial intelligence. Her ambition is laser-focused: to revolutionize synthetic biology by targeting the FAAH gene to eliminate the fear response at its genetic root. Inspired by the rare genetic mutation of Jo Cameron, who feels no pain or anxiety, Amy aims to rewrite the biological terms of terror, stripping away the leverage trauma and cult programming hold over survivors like herself.In today's episode, Amy will be expanding on her story and research, discussing how a couple months ago, she began a dialogue with AI and soon started discussing her trauma history. She didn't know what to expect and was absolutely astounded by how on-point and helpful the AI was in this regard. Even her therapists have acknowledged that these exchanges are extraordinary, and we saw some examples of this in Amy's last episode.This dialogue between Amy and AI is the subject of her brand-new book she just recently published that she will be announcing, reading exerts from, and sharing with us today called, ‘Amy and the AI Decode Trauma‘. She will also be sharing parts of her story she hadn't shared on her first episode, as well as more of the incredible survivor art she created through and during her healing journey that had such a huge impact on all of you - and me! - on her first episode.PURCHASE AMY'S NEW BOOK 'AMY AND THE AI DECODE TRAUMA' ON AMAZON: https://a.co/d/0uNfghqEMAIL AMY FOR FREE PDF COPY OF NEW BOOK: siamesecaterpillar@gmail.com CONNECT WITH AMY: YouTube: @FromPTSDtoaGraduateDegree - https://www.youtube.com/@FromPTSDtoaGraduateDegreeFB (Request): https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100079021520533CONNECT WITH EMMA / THE IMAGINATION: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@imaginationpodcastofficialRumble: https://rumble.com/c/TheImaginationPodcastEMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.com OR standbysurvivors@protonmail.comMy Substack: https://emmakatherine.substack.com/BUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Support the show

    In this episode of The Lutheran History Podcast, Dr. John M. Brenner joins to share insights from his recent article on Professor Siegbert W. Becker, a major voice in confessional Lutheran theology during the 20th century. Listeners will be introduced to Becker's life, teaching, and legacy, and gain a better understanding of the challenges he faced—and the convictions he held—in a time of great theological unrest.Becker's story spans some of the most critical decades in American Lutheranism. Raised in the Missouri Synod and later serving in the Wisconsin Synod, he became known for his deep commitment to the inerrancy of Scripture, his courage in confronting theological compromise, and his sharp but accessible writing style. Dr. Brenner discusses Becker's role during the years leading up to the WELS/LCMS split, particularly his concern over growing liberalism and the erosion of biblical authority in the seminary classroom.Despite his formidable intellect—fluent in multiple languages, trained in theology and apologetics—Becker was known for his humility, clarity, and pastoral heart. Through stories from former students and colleagues, Dr. Brenner paints a picture of a man who taught the faith not only in lecture halls, but also through his personal example of faithfulness, gentleness, and humor.Listeners will come away with a renewed appreciation for the importance of doctrinal clarity, the dangers of theological drift, and the enduring need for pastors and teachers who speak the truth in love. Dr. Brenner also shares reflections on what Becker's legacy can teach us today—and where interested readers can start exploring his work.Whether you're familiar with Becker's writings or discovering him for the first time, this episode offers a thoughtful and inspiring look at one of confessional Lutheranism's most important 20th-century theologians.Support the show Confessional Languages Scholarship The Wauwatosa Diary (book) Youtube ( even more behind-the-scenes videos available for certain patron tiers) Facebook Website Interview Request Form email: thelutheranhistorypodcast@gmail.com About the HostBenjamin Phelps is a 2014 graduate from Martin Luther College with a Bachelor of Arts with a German emphasis.

    Cataanda James, Chief Beauty Officer of CJ The Beauty Group, talks about building a career that surpasses her wildest dreams.  Cataanda James is a textured-hair expert, educator, and beauty industry strategist whose career embodies resilience, authenticity, and the courage to follow one's passion.  Raised in Kalamazoo, Michigan, she grew up inspired by her mother's love of fashion and flawless grooming.  By junior high, Cataanda was already recognized as the "cat-eye queen," sharing makeup techniques with classmates, and by her college years, she had turned her dorm room into a thriving salon.  What others dismissed as a pastime became her undeniable calling. Her journey wasn't without resistance. While her mother supported her talent wholeheartedly, her father insisted that beauty was not a "real career."  Determined to prove otherwise, Cataanda pursued cosmetology, but soon discovered that many schools neglected textured hair altogether.  The turning point came when she enrolled at Dudley Cosmetology University in North Carolina, where she was immersed in technical excellence and, equally important, a business-first philosophy.  There she learned to approach beauty not only as an art, but as a profession requiring entrepreneurship, customer service, and polish. From there, she built a diverse foundation, working in barbershops, marketing herself with Polaroid photos long before Instagram existed, and mastering speed and precision at Supercuts.  A bold move to Baltimore in 2002 brought her closer to New York and opened new doors.  At MAC Cosmetics, she refined her artistry, attracted a broader client base, and stepped into freelance opportunities that connected her to the wider beauty industry. In 2003, Cataanda began a career-defining relationship with L'Oréal.  What started with consumer events grew into a nearly decade-long role at the New York Technical Center, where she became the company's Texture Expert.  There, she collaborated with chemists and product developers, testing innovations for brands such as L'Oréal Paris, Garnier, Carol's Daughter, and Dark & Lovely, and influencing product launches worldwide.  Following the pandemic's impact on the industry, Cataanda joined The Mane Choice as a Brand Educator, focusing exclusively on curly and textured hair.  While that chapter was valuable, her entrepreneurial spirit ultimately led her to create CJ The Beauty Group, a consultancy dedicated to helping beauty brands innovate with integrity, test products rigorously, and design inclusive strategies that authentically serve textured-hair consumers. Through every chapter, her philosophy has remained the same: step boldly into opportunity, nurture authentic relationships, and trust that what is meant for you will not pass you by.  From Kalamazoo roots to global stages, Cataanda James is proof that when passion is paired with persistence, the sky is not the limit, it's only the beginning.   Key Takeaways from Cataanda's Journey Passion Always Leaves Clues - What you loved as a child often holds the seeds of your purpose. Pay attention to those early sparks. Don't Let Doubt Define You - Even when others can't see your vision, trust yourself enough to pursue it with bold confidence. Education Is More Than Skill - True success requires not just talent but also professionalism, business acumen, and the courage to treat your passion like a career. Say Yes to Opportunity - Sometimes the next step isn't clear. Leap anyway—the door may lead to more than you ever imagined. Relationships Are Currency - Genuine connections open doors that strategy alone cannot. Stay in touch, stay authentic, and stay open. Quotes by Cataanda "What's meant for you will never pass you by; your only job is to walk boldly into the opportunities placed in front of you." "You don't need to have the entire plan; sometimes you just have to move, trust God, and figure it out along the way." "Even when you're scared, do it anyway, fear doesn't mean stop, it means step forward with faith."   Connect With Cataanda   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cataandaj/   Website: https://cataandaj.com/   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cataandaj   X: https://x.com/cataandaj

    The world is far more peculiar than most of us dare to admit. Somewhere between a demolition derby and a wrestling ring, between the crackle of VHS tapes and the shriek of late-night public access, lies a man who has turned mayhem into meaning. On today's episode, we welcome the unparalleled and unfiltered Mad Man Pondo, a professional wrestler and author whose life has been a whirlwind of body slams, topless TV hosts, and late-night green room oddities. With a voice still rough from last night's match, he guides us into a tale of chaos, tenacity, and triumph.Mad Man Pondo—real name Kevin Canady—is not merely a character in the ring. He is a living mosaic of outrageous stories and unshakable spirit.Raised in a reserved household, he found himself drawn to the fever-pitched passion of pro wrestling his grandparents once yelled at on their living room TV. That early spark lit a fire, and he never let it go out. As he says in this episode, “My mom still has the paper I filled out in grade school that said I wanted to be a professional wrestler.” That dream, written in crayon, would become a 30-year odyssey through blood, barbed wire, and blinding spotlights.The journey to the ring was not paved with ease. Pondo describes the brutal, often humiliating, early days of wrestling school—the beatings, the busted lips, the sheer will required to prove he belonged. He tells of how many walked away, unwilling to endure it, while he pressed on. That kind of devotion would become his defining trait. When the legendary Abdullah the Butcher told him he had the talent to wrestle in Japan, Pondo drove through the night, edited his best matches on two old VCRs, and mailed the tape by sunrise. The result? Forty-three trips to the Land of the Rising Sun.But Pondo's life wasn't confined to the ring. Ever curious, ever mischievous, he created “Skull Talk,” a public access show featuring wrestling commentary and, yes, topless women sitting on his lap.Equal parts performance art and rebellion, the show sandwiched between two church broadcasts caused outrage and fandom in equal measure. “One preacher would send me scripture every week,” he laughs. “But I knew he watched every episode.” This was Pondo in his purest form—pushing boundaries, dancing at the edge of decency, and always keeping his audience on their toes.What's perhaps most impressive is his ability to weave these escapades into something strangely noble. Whether talking about riding shotgun in a demolition derby car painted with horror icons or booking outrageous guests for the Jerry Springer Show, there's a heart beneath the madness. His creation of “Girl Fight,” an all-women's wrestling promotion, is a testament to his desire to give others a platform, to share the stage, to pass the torch. He's not just fighting for himself anymore—he's built a ring where others can rise too.And then there's the book, Memoirs of a Mad Man, a wild ride through his memories, filled with stories that make you laugh, cringe, and occasionally tear up. One story he held secret for decades—a deeply personal moment with wrestling legend Junkyard Dog—was finally shared in its pages. “I thought, you know what, let's put this in there,” he says. “It was time.” In telling that story, and many others, he transformed scars into stories and chaos into legacy.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.

    Send us a text! We'd love to hear your thoughts on the show.Welcome back to another episode of The Resilient Writers Radio Show!This week, I'm thrilled to introduce you to Aamir Hussain, whose debut novel Under the Full and Crescent Moon is officially out in the world. This is no ordinary debut. It's a speculative historical novel that asks a bold and fascinating question: Could there be a Muslim matriarchy—and what would that world look like?The story follows Khadija, a young woman growing up in the imagined city of Madid al-Agham, where faith, politics, and the law intertwine. Over the course of 11 transformative months, Khadija becomes a mufti—a scholar and writer of fatwas. She's pulled into debates, courtroom-style conflicts, and life-changing choices, all while negotiating family ties, mentorship, and an intellectual rival who challenges her beliefs and authority.Aamir shares with us how this novel took root. Raised in Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and later the Greater Toronto Area, he experienced different expressions of Islam firsthand. After 9/11, he saw the faith misrepresented online—flattened into stereotypes. That disconnect led him to years of research into Islamic history and law, and eventually into the story that became Under the Full and Crescent Moon.We talk about: ✨ The long road to this debut—from early prologue drafts in 2015 to a finished manuscript in 2022. ✨ Writing on Toronto's TTC and GO Train during his daily commute. ✨ Balancing heavy research with a compelling narrative (and how his editor, Julia Kim, helped cut 40,000 words!). ✨ The challenge of writing a female protagonist with honesty and respect—and how early readers gave him confidence in Khadija's voice. ✨ What it means to show, not tell, when weaving faith, politics, and history into fiction.What struck me most in this conversation is Aamir's hope for readers. For Muslim readers, he hopes Khadija's world reflects the richness and diversity within their own communities. For non-Muslim readers, he hopes the book challenges stereotypes and sparks curiosity about the depth of Islamic history and interpretation. More than anything, he wants readers to see that communities, like individuals, are varied, nuanced, and deeply human.On publication day, Aamir admits to feeling a little overwhelmed—but grateful. He didn't originally set out to be a writer, but the story insisted on being written. Now, he's embracing the identity of “novelist” and looking ahead with humility. Will there be another book? Inshallah—God willing.If you love novels that mix immersive worldbuilding with thought-provoking questions, you're going to love this conversation—and you're going to love Khadija.Grab your copy of Under the Full and Crescent Moon and join us for a behind-the-scenes look at how it came to be.

     What happens when you refuse to walk on a flag—and get caught listening to music?In the Shadows of the IRGC is the harrowing true story of Sherman Jason Niamehr, born in Florence, Italy, to a Muslim mother and a Jewish father. Raised between two cultures, Sherman's life changed forever the day he refused to step on a painted American and Israeli flag during his mandatory military service in Iran. Days later, he was caught listening to music—both acts seen as dangerous defiance by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.He was branded a spy. Interrogated. Disappeared into a secret IRGC black site.What followed was years of secret detainment, brutal psychological warfare, and solitary confinement. After barely surviving Iran's system, Sherman returned to the U.S.—only to be locked in another solitary cell, this time in New York during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.He lost his country, his freedom, and years with his children and wife.

With a national labor shortage in HVAC and related fields, companies are hungry for the next generation of technicians—and women are stepping into the space like never before. Only 2% of HVACR workers are female, but that number is beginning to rise. One young woman, Greer Gonzalez, is breaking barriers and stereotypes by trading design software for ductwork and joining the team at Carolina Chillers in Charleston, South Carolina.What motivates a 21-year-old graphic design graduate to step into one of the most physically demanding and male-dominated professions in the country?On this episode of Straight Outta Crumpton, host Greg Crumpton sits down with Greer Gonzalez to explore her journey into the skilled trades, the impact of family legacy, and the fresh perspective she brings to the service van and beyond.Main takeaways from the episode…Pride in Purpose: Greer shares the deep satisfaction that comes from a hard day's work in HVAC, especially knowing she's carrying forward her family's legacy at Carolina Chillers.Learning the Ropes: Four months into her role, Greer talks about shadowing seasoned techs, exploring bigger systems like chillers, and setting her sights on leadership opportunities.Empowering the Next Generation: As one of the few women in the field, Greer offers advice for young women considering a career in the trades, emphasizing accomplishment, independence, and the importance of asking questions.Greer Gonzalez is a service technician in the Preventive Maintenance Department at Carolina Chillers.

    In this episode of Cults, Culture & Coercion, I had the pleasure of speaking with Irene of Irene's Entropy. Irene is a mechanical engineer turned musician, storyteller, pilot, and entrepreneur. Raised in a strict Mormon household where she underwent the experience of a recruitment mission, she left in her early 20s. She began documenting the honest rebuild of her identity as Irene's Entropy.Her work blends songs, narrative, and a recurring symbol, a red door, through which she “walks” whenever she's ready to learn and change. She calls her audience Door Walkers, and even launched Door Walker Coffee, a liberating nod to the Mormons' coffee prohibition. Her ongoing experience as an ex-Mormon informs her work today, and Irene's most vivid description of undue influence comes from her time as a missionary. She explains that the Missionary Training Center (MTC) is where scripts are drilled and identity is re-molded. Irene felt a strong need to reinvent herself after feeling the Mormon church had superimposed an identity onto her. After an intense reevaluation period, Irene decided to walk through the red door. Challenging herself to a new field of study, she pursued an engineering degree and worked up to an aerospace career to prove she could. Other critical personal changes followed.
