Before the congressional Secrets Task Force decided to call Dylan Borland to testify publicly at a hearing in September, another witness was slated to appear. In that same slot. Who is he? What was he prepared to say? And why did he suddenly decline to come forward? In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George track down the mystery witness and hear his story for the first time in public. This military veteran had a close-up view of a huge and astonishing craft as it sat hovering above a runway at Eglin Air Force Base, surrounded by other military personnel. Was it one of ours... or one of theirs? This witness was invited to tell his account to Congress during the September public hearing and was prepared to do so but had to decline for reasons that were not immediately clear.

Kiera shares specific tips for how practice owners can gain consistency, confidence, and calm in their day-to-day unsteady of chaos and surprise at the unknown. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: The Dental A Team (00:01) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera and today's a fun day. ⁓ think how to get more stability and predictability in your dental practice. I think this is a zone where people don't know how to have stability, predictability, growth, and how to do that in a consistent way. so ⁓ some practices feel like it's like a freaking rollercoaster. Like your systems are wild and it's like, what? flavor of the day should I be choosing? I fix my system? Should I go for a new patient? Should I be working on my P &L? And I think that that's just like what people do. And they're like, how do I get this stability? How do get this predictability? Now I heard this quote and then I tried to find this quote. So I'm just going to tell you, because I love it. I don't know if it's real or not, but I'm just going to say it's real. They said that Walt Disney said, and I love Walt Disney and I'm obsessed with Disney, but they were able to create predictable magic with systems behind the scenes. And I think about that for practices of like, can I help you create predictable magic, predictable cashflow, predictable, ⁓ profitability, predictable, like new patients. Well, it's through the systems behind the scenes and the team that's in place. so today really working on that of like how we can go from chaos and like whack them all of like, and I feel like I do this too in my company. just so you know, I don't think anybody's ever perfect at this, but I think we can actually cut out a lot of these pieces for you to create less chaos. more predictability, more predictable magic in your practice ⁓ to give you that consistency, confidence, and calm in an owner's life rather than the chaos and the surprise and the unknown of will I be able to make it next month? Will I be able to make it in six months? I think for me as a business owner, is the hardest part of being a business owner is that unpredictability. so trying to give you more, ⁓ more predictability and stability. So if you're tired of the revenue swings, you're tired of the no show surprises, you're tired of the last minute team drama, like you're just tired and exhausted of that. This episode's for you. This is where today we're gonna really go into our mission of positively impacting the world of dentistry with tactical advice ⁓ from experts who do dentists and team consulting. We've been there, we've done it, we've done it multiple times, we've run it in our own practices. ⁓ Every single consultant on our team has had to have a proven track record of going through exactly what you go through. coming out on the other side with ease and grace. So that's what we're here for and so I'm gonna just break it down into a couple quick steps for you today of just some different things that can probably help you create some more predictability in your practice to create more stability and to get you out of that, like I said, the revenue swings and no-show surprises. Now, this isn't something that's going to come easy. This isn't something that happens overnight. ⁓ I have a sign up in my kitchen that says discipline equals freedom. This is a disciplined act. This is what the high achievers do. These are not the small practices that are doing this. And it's the, like, I feel like it's investing. Someone once told me investing is like vanilla ice cream. It's not sexy and nobody gets really excited over vanilla ice cream, but it's predictable and it's always good. And that's what I feel this is like, let's create your practice into the vanilla ice cream practice where it's not sexy. It's not flashy, but it is predictable and it's stable for you. And then from there, like add the sprinkles, add the toppings, add the chocolate. Like you can make vanilla ice cream awesome. It's a great base and a great foundation. So today I wanna help you create that in your practice. So step one is a daily and weekly rhythm. ⁓ I found that structure is something that's so paramount. Even my mom, like there were seven kids in my family and my mom had to create structure. Like I remember summertime, a lot of parents hate summertime because their kids have no structure. They enjoy school time, there's structure, there's a rhythm, there's something that they can count on. Kids go to school at this time, kids come home at this time, there's predictability in there. And so for you within your practice, let's kind of take what we do. in parenting and in growing up. And let's apply that to your practice because the same principles apply. And so having these different pieces ⁓ in place of how teams communicate, of how we review performances. So it's a cadence. Like I hate remembering things and I love cadences. just a couple key strategies on this daily and weekly rhythm would be morning huddle. And in morning huddle, morning huddle is one of my fastest ways that I'm able to create stability and structure within a practice if it's a good one. So we're looking at patient. patients, goals and priorities. And we're doing it consistently and we're looking for opportunities. So a great morning huddle, Kristy and I were talking the other day and she said, I can add 10 to 15 grand to most practices just with a great daily huddle. And I love that because I agree with you. If you use a huddle strategically, it's like, why do team members like in basketball or football, why do they huddle? They huddle to win the game and that's what your huddle should be. So we have our daily morning huddle to look for opportunities to prioritize, to align, to make sure our goals are actually where we want them to go. Then after that, we have a weekly leadership and team meetings. We're looking at our numbers, resolving obstacles. We literally teach our teams traction style ⁓ L10 meetings so that way you can run it. So we're talking about our data, any of our numbers that are off-track or an immediate issue. We teach you how to solve issues. We teach you how to rate a meeting. So they're very effective and efficient meetings using data. So we're not just sitting here like vomiting our problems. You vomit the problems, yes, but we're also going to have a strategic way of how we solve them. And then this way we're able to catch our problems earlier. So between those two things of a daily and a weekly, so we're having a daily huddle that's focused on strategy. It's focused on winning. It's focused on opportunities. And then we have a weekly leadership. So your leadership team gets together and departments. And I know you might be like, that's so many meetings. It's fine. You're welcome to do that. But I'm like, if you want to know how the big players are hitting, like I'm talking the practices I work with that are 20, 30 million annually. This is what they're doing. And at a small level on a big level, this works. When I had one team member, did leadership meetings every single week because I figured we need to start, like that's a big practices to do. That's a big organization to do. So why am I thinking I'm so small not to implement that? When you do this, you typically will see a 10 to 20 % increase in revenue and decrease in overhead. You'll increase your schedule. Like just doing this, you'll look for opportunities. Your schedule will start to get hit more consistently because we're tracking it. We're tracking it every single day. And people like don't love to talk about this, but I'm like, I also don't love working out, but I want the six pack abs. So it's choose your heart. Like would we rather sit there and like hope and pray and want to have it? Or are we going to start to put in some of these daily practices and weekly practices that work for other ones? So that way you can have more predictability. I promise you what, where your focus is, like where energy goes, focus flow, like where focus goes, energy flows. Let me get that one right. Where focus goes, energy flows. So if I'm focused on the numbers, I'm focused on the things we should be doing. I'm focused on solving problems sooner. That's where my energy is gonna go. So we're gonna start to like, if you read the book essentialism, they talk about like, don't spin your wheels on a million things, spin your wheels on the most important things and laser focus on it and get everybody rowing in the same direction, you're ultimately gonna grow so much faster. So when we're doing these little pieces, this is what it is. So I would, if I was you, add these meetings into it, but I would make sure my meetings are powerful and impactful. I wouldn't just do meetings for meeting's sake, meetings need to be done with intentionality. Number two is tracking. Leading metrics, not just lagging ones. So a leading and a lagging, I really hate these, they're really hard for me, but it's leading ones are things we have control over, lagging is the outcome at the end. So for example, like pre-appointment, how pre-appointed are our books? What's our unscheduled treatment? What's our AR aging? What's our same day conversions? What's our diagnosis rate? Like all those things are leading measures that will help us know if our outcome is going to actually get met. So if we're looking at pre-appointment, like, how many patients in our database are pre-appointed for appointments versus how much re-care and reactivation do we need to do? So it's these two things like, if I wanna schedule full, I can pre-appoint, I can reappoint, I can look at all those different pieces to make sure my schedule's full. Schedule full is the outcome, the pre-appointment, the reappointment, all of that is a leading measure that's going to help me get to my outcome. And then we wanna actually look at those. So, ⁓ and a lot of times it's like, we want to hire somebody. Well, let's think about the leading metrics that would help us. It's how many ads did we place and how many interviews did we perform? Those are things we have control over. I don't have control over if I hire somebody or not. I don't have control over the candidates that come to me, but I do have control over how many ads I place and how many interviews I perform. So let's track that versus tracking somebody being hired. Let's track how many reappointments we have and pre-appointments we have. Those are things we can control versus as our schedule full. I still want to track both. Those are still important, but we have, your team can influence the leading measures. They can't necessarily influence the lagging ones. And if we have great leading measures that we're tracking, our lagging outcomes should actually be hit. Then we look at those in our weekly meetings, not just at the end of the month. And then this way, like it's a KPI scorecard that the whole team's looking at and they're watching. So when we do this, what you find is our reappointment. Like, so in office, when they start tracking their reappointments, And we started doing it consistently. go from 80 % to 85 to 98. And people are like, but Kiera, I already do this. We're already doing it. And I'm like, great, then let's just make sure that the data proves what you're already doing and you're getting the gold stars for what you're already doing. What's crazy is when you start tracking these little things, your practice, that's gonna get a lot better. And it's crazy to how quickly it does. So if I was in your shoes, I would look at where are my gaps and where are the things that I felt, like I said, the... the schedule gaps. So what could I do if I've got gaps in my schedule that would be leading? Well, it'd be how many outbound calls did we make and how many patients did we get scheduled off those outbound calls? Those are things I can control. So this is on my re-care. Tiffanie, she used to make her practices call 50 patients a day. I am not exaggerating that. I think it was actually a hundred. Like it was so many, cause she's like the more I have to have so many outbound calls cause she had tracked it. I have have this many outbound calls in order to have my schedule stay consistently full. I can't just call when I need an opening. I need to be constantly putting those phone calls out there so patients are calling me back and I keep my schedule full. That's something. So when you're looking at like, well, I'm so tired of the cashflow dips. I'm so tired of the schedule gaps. My question is, what are you doing proactively? Like those are the systems behind the scene that create the predictable magic. I guarantee you Walt Disney's not like, you know, we should have fireworks. Well, no, there's all these systems in play before they even get to firework show. to make sure the firework show is a success. So for you looking at what are the predictable things I should be doing. So the way you break this down is what are the three big stressors I have? And then what are leading measures that I could add into place to prevent that? So instead of me looking at the end of my PNL and be like, well, shoot, I don't have money. Could you look at your bank account every single day? Could you look at your PNL every single day? could you look at your diagnosis and your production? If you want to produce a hundred grand, you've got to be diagnosing 300,000. That's something within your control. You could start to say, am I diagnosing $300,000 a month? I break that down to how many dollars I need to do a day. I watch my daily production diagnosis. I work with my hygiene team. I integrate Overjet or Pearl as AI solutions to it. That's how you can start to move this one forward for you exponentially rather than hoping and praying that we're hitting our cashflow at end of the month. That's how you start to be a more strategic, getting out of that chaos into consistency and predictability. And then step three would be like building capacity plans. when I look at this, sometimes we like, so back at the beginning, I mentioned to you, said, are you tired of the revenue swings, the no show surprises, the last minute team drama? Well, cool, this is around like the team culture and all that. So. People and time are gonna be a big piece for that. So based on our production goals and where we want to go, based on where we are currently and in the future, I need to start planning and projecting out how many team members do I need for the production? How do I have block scheduling to make sure that I'm not having like up and down months? How can I forecast out on my schedule to see when are my down months? When are my up months? When are people taking vacations? How can I proactively plan for this? And then we're going to plan PTO and hiring proactively. So when I'm projecting out with a practice, we're literally at like September. ⁓ So convenient timing of this podcast to release for you. I'm looking ahead to say, okay, let's plan out our entire year time off. When are we having meetings? What are the highs and lows? What are the peaks and valleys within our production? And how can I stabilize that? So I'm not having these huge swings in a practice. How can I either plan for providers to be there, not have as many providers off? I'm looking at past history. How can I prevent sucked timber and have slammed dunk timber? Like what are the different things when I know I've got those lows? What could I do two months earlier to make sure that I'm not having these like high and low months and then I'm proactively doing these pieces. So if I need to hire or I need to do these different, I need to have a different schedule. Like a lot of you are out two weeks in December. So why are we setting our September goal the same as our say October goal? They're not, they shouldn't be the same. You should figure out what is my goal. So if I'm trying to produce let's say 3 million, well, I'm not gonna do 3 million divided by 12 months. It's gonna set me up for massive failure. I'm also not gonna do it by 52 weeks. What I'm gonna do is I'm literally gonna look to see, let's say there's only 45 weeks that we're going to have, and let's say I'm gonna then do that by 12 months. Well, now what I've gotta do for there is if that's the case, I need to be producing every single month, okay? So what I did is I did 3 million, and I'm gonna do that by about 45 weeks, okay? Then I'm gonna divide that by 12. And I'm gonna say, all right, this is what I need to do. So my 3 million divide that by 45 weeks, that gives me 66,666 per week. Now I'm gonna divide that by four days. I need to be producing about 17,000 a day for 45 weeks. Notice I took out some of our low weeks. We have 52 weeks in a month. So I just gave you seven weeks where that's gonna hit your December holidays, it's gonna hit your November holidays, it's gonna hit your ice days in February, that's gonna hit it. And instead of just doing it haphazardly like that, you actually can proactively plan this out. We have a tool for this where you can plan this. When are people out? What do I need to do? And then based on the growth that I'm also gonna project for our business, based on my diagnosing, all these leading measures, how many team members do I need to have and when do I need to hire them? How you doing? Because that was so many words and I hope you took it and I hope you took notes on it. because what this will do is it's actually going to create a roadmap for you for next year. It's going to create a way for you to have predictability. This is going to prevent those revenue dips. We've helped you already with scheduling gaps by being with leading measures and then with your team, like staffing issues, making sure we have enough team members. If we know we are always down an assistant, rock on, let me project that out. Let me figure out what I need to produce for that. That way I can hire an additional assistant without having it be chaos on me. These types of things, if I know I've got maternity leave coming out. How can I proactively do it? What if I hired another hygienist? But I actually build this whole plan out as best as I can. Usually I do mine in September, August, September, October is when I start working on mine to have it ready to go for the next year. I always want to throw up when I look at how much it's going to be. And then I like go to work and figure out how we're going to make this happen. But that helps you be more proactive. So I would look to see these three things. One, do I have a daily and a weekly rhythm? That was the easiest thing and making sure that those have opportunities. and looking for that and strategizing with that. Then having leading indicators, not just outcomes. And we're tracking that collectively as a team and in every department. And then we're creating this strategic plan and forecasting and projecting out. So that way that's in place. Those three little things right there are going to help you have so much more stability and capacity within your practice that you will just be able to sleep better at night. Like as a business owner who's done this, as a consultant who's done this for offices, as consultants who do this for offices, these are things. that are so helpful for you. Like this is not just luck. I say create your own luck, create your own magic and do it through the systems behind the scenes. But the discipline there is required. The accountability to yourself and to your team is required. Sometimes when I listen to podcasts or I have coaches come in, I'm like, that feels hard. Well, it doesn't have to be hard. You don't have to do this on your own. Buying a practice did not mean you had to be a CEO and an operations specialist and a CFO. You don't have to do all these things. What you do need to do is hire people that are smarter than you that know how to do this. And if you don't know how to do it, it is your opportunity and in my opinion, obligation as a CEO to either figure it out or I love the book, Who Not How, who knows how to do this that can help me and my team. And then I vet them, I interview them, and then I execute and I hire them. That way you're able to grow. So if this is something that I think resonates, like you're like, I want predictable and profitable practices. I want to get rid of the stress and the chaos. want to get rid of the highs and the lows. Reach out. This is what we do. We build systems to scale and sustain. We create the predictable magic with the systems and the team behind the scenes. We teach you how to have the disciplines. We teach you how to have an effective morning huddle. You don't have to do this alone. People are always like, dentistry feels like an island. And I'm like, only if you want it to be. It doesn't have to be. You can be with all the other doctors. You can be with all the other people. We have a community of doctors that get together. We have teams that get together. We have trainings across the board. We work with your practice individually and connect you with other people so you can learn from other people. You don't have to do it. So stop guessing, start growing predictably, start having more predictability and less chaos. This is what we do. So if this feels fun for you, reach out. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. If it feels terrifying and intimidating because you're like, feel like I should know this, drop the ego and realize it's okay. None of us know what we're doing. Everyone's in your same boat. Everyone doesn't know how to figure this out. Some choose to get help and some choose to swim it out and figure it out on their own. Both are correct methods. It's just what's method, Beth, for you. And if I was you, I would at least book the call, see what people could do and see if you could help me get more predictable, predictability in my practice. Because the biggest thing as a business owner that creates the most amount of stress are those upswings, those downswings. And when I have more stability, when I know more consistently, when I know what it's going to be, I'm able to navigate those highs and lows a lot better because I know the long-term outcome. It's not like a shotgun, like, like scatter. It's like, my gosh. It's like, all right, got it. I can weather this. And I also have somebody who can keep me stable. I have coaches and they help me keep my stability there. So reach out. I'd love to help you. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com as always. Thanks for listening and I'll catch you next time on The Dental A Team podcast.

Recorded on October 8th, just days into the shutdown, this episode provides practical, actionable guidance on navigating the financial challenges of missed paychecks, accessing zero-interest loans from military-friendly banks, and protecting yourself from shutdown-related scams. While the Military Money Manual typically focuses on evergreen content, this episode addresses an urgent situation affecting active duty service members, federal employees, and military contractors. Topics Covered Government Shutdown Basics: Active duty military deemed mission essential, must continue reporting to work October 1st paycheck protected (work performed in September) October 15th paycheck at risk Historical precedent: 2018-2019 Coast Guard missed paychecks for 35 days Backpay is guaranteed by law once shutdown ends Veterans, retirees, VA disability, and Social Security payments protected (separate funding sources) USAA Government Shutdown Assistance Program: https://www.usaa.com/support/government-shutdown-program/ Zero-interest loan: $500-$6,000 based on last direct deposit amount Requirements: Direct deposit established before shutdown, at least one qualifying deposit in 30 days prior, US/military address (APO/FPO/DPO), credit approval required Repayment: 3 months, two equal installments (first payment ~60 days, second ~90 days) Additional relief: Auto/property insurance payment relief Credit cards: 3-month payment extension Consumer loans: 2-month extension with no interest Overdraft fees waived Home equity lines: 3-month payment extension Navy Federal Paycheck Assistance Program: https://www.navyfederal.org/about/government-shutdown.html Zero-interest loan: $250-$6,000 based on last direct deposit Major advantages: No credit check, not reported to credit bureaus Eligibility: Federal employees, active duty service members, federal contractors paid directly by government (broader than USAA) Registration deadline: Day before scheduled payday for funds on normal pay date (can register up to 3 days after, but won't receive funds immediately) Automatic repayment: Once direct deposit resumes, Navy Federal automatically deducts loan amount Backup repayment: If shutdown continues, repayment occurs 6 days after loan receipt Service Credit Union Options: 0% APR for up to 4 months No payments for up to 90 days Up to $5,000 for qualifying members Standard underwriting criteria applies (may require credit check) Military Aid Societies (All Interest-Free): Air Force Aid Society – Falcon Loans up to $1,500 and Standard Assistance, up to 24 months of repayment.

We all experience the final quarter differently. Some of you are energized, on track to hit or exceed your goals. Others feel discouraged, tempted to check out because you've fallen behind. Many sit somewhere in the middle—close enough to see success within reach, but not quite there yet. Regardless of where you stand, how you choose to finish this year directly shapes how you'll begin the next one.The journey of finishing Q4 mirrors my marathon experiences. At mile 20, when your legs feel like bricks and exhaustion sets in, you face a pivotal choice. High performers don't coast when fatigue hits—they've prepared for this moment. They've defined what success looks like, built systems of accountability, and strengthened their mindset to push through when others hit the wall.This episode unpacks three critical practices that separate elite achievers from the rest during the final stretch. First, define what finishing strong actually means—creating clarity that guides your focus amid the season's chaos. Second, build accountability into your routines to ensure you consistently take the high-value actions that drive results, even when they're uncomfortable. Third, deliberately strengthen your mindset through carefully chosen inputs and grounding practices that maintain your confidence under pressure.Ready to run your whole race? The year won't slow down, but you can choose how you finish it. By implementing these high-performance practices, you won't just cross the finish line—you'll carry powerful momentum into January. Reach out to learn how our study groups can help your team build the accountability, skills, and connections needed to perform at their best when it matters most. In this podcast you will learn about how:• High performers balance the push to finish strong with clarity and intention that sets up a strong start• Like marathon runners, leaders often hit a wall in Q4 when fatigue sets in but the finish line is still distant• Define what finishing strong means to gain clarity and control that builds confidence• Separate what's urgent from what's truly important to focus your energy on needle-moving activities• Build accountability systems to ensure you consistently take the actions that grow your business• Strengthen your mindset by choosing inputs and practices that reinforce possibility instead of limitation• Study groups provide accountability, skill development, and peer connections that drive team performanceHighlights:0:00The Power of Finishing Strong2:40The Marathon Mindset4:45Define What Finishing Strong Means7:19Build Accountability into Q48:57Strengthen Your Mindset11:20Resources and Call to ActionInterested in 1:1 Coaching?Kristin partners with high-performing financial advisors, leaders, and business owners who are ready to lead with more clarity, focus, and intention.Clients often come to her with a strong vision, but they aren't sure how to close the gap between where they are now and where they want to go. Many are navigating a season of growth, stepping into expanded leadership, or realizing they've outgrown their current systems and ways of working.They know they're capable of more and want a strategic thought partner to help them get there, someone who will ask the tough questions, create space to think deeply, and offer a proven process for turning ambition into meaningful progress.If this sounds like the kind of partnership you've been craving, email meet@kristinburke.com to learn more and connect.Connect with KristinLinkedIn

Send us a textFinding bass in the fall can be tricky—especially on lakes that don't have much structure or topographic change to guide you.

Whether you're bank fishing or in a kayak, this will help you dial in your fall game and consistently find fish on featureless lakes.
Send us a textNot all fertility pills are created equal.

This week, I'm sitting down with Alison Patterson, a philanthropic advisor and coach who helps people bring more purpose and joy into how they give. What I love most about Alison is the way she takes generosity out of the “exclusive club” of the wealthy and makes it something that's accessible, meaningful, and empowering for all of us—no matter where we are financially. In our conversation, Alison and I talk about: ✨ How giving isn't about how much money you have, but about aligning your resources with your values ✨ Why generosity can be a powerful way for women to step into confidence and leadership ✨ The role mothers can play in modeling generosity for our kids ✨ And how to move from reactive giving to intentional generosity that actually feels good This conversation is such a refreshing reminder that giving isn't about scarcity or obligation—it's about abundance, joy, and meaning.

What happens when something gets damaged at your venue or event space? Should you always ask for a security deposit, or only if you've had trouble before? How do you decide what kind of damage is “just wear and tear” versus something you should actually charge for? In this episode, I dig into the uncomfortable reality of damages, the importance of clear contracts, how to be fair with clients, and why security deposits might be good business—even if most guests never cause a problem.Listen to this new 6-minute episode for practical advice on protecting your business from damages, being clear with customers, and making security deposits work to everyone's benefit.If you have any questions about anything in this, or any of my podcasts, or have a suggestion for a topic or guest, please reach out directly to me at Alan@WeddingBusinessSolutions.com or visit my website Podcast.AlanBerg.com Please be sure to subscribe to this podcast and leave a review (thanks, it really does make a difference).

In this episode of the Programmatic Digest, host Ellen Parker welcomes two of LinkedIn's most active programmatic voices: Gary Guarnaccia and Ryan Verklin. Together, they dive into the realities of in-housing, retail media, DSP strategy, and the ongoing shifts in supply path optimization (SPO). Ryan shares his journey from agency life to in-house at Bayer, where he helped lead the transition to hands-on programmatic buying before moving into retail media. Gary reflects on his role supporting Bayer's in-house teams through ad tech partnerships, ensuring programmatic and retail investments drive real business outcomes. We dig into hot-button industry debates, including: In-house vs. agency vs. retail media networks – how traders' roles are evolving. DSP strategy – why more DSPs don't automatically mean more reach. Retail media networks – the difference between on-site and off-site, and how CPG brands leverage retailer data for incremental reach. Amazon DSP – is it really positioned to replace other omni-channel platforms? Traders' perspective – why user-friendly DSPs, efficient reporting, and reduced friction are critical to long-term success. SPO and transparency – reacting to Index Exchange's announcement and The Trade Desk's move to categorize SSPs as resellers. The conversation highlights a recurring theme: programmatic traders need more love. Empowering the hands-on-keyboard teams with better tools, education, and collaboration leads to stronger business results—and less burnout. If you're a programmatic trader, strategist, or leader navigating the complexities of DSPs, SSPs, and retail media, this episode is packed with insights and candid perspectives you won't want to miss.

CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION GAZA PLAN.. 1950 RAMALLAH 10-6-25 FIRST HOUR 9-915 The Trump Peace Plan and the Problematic Role of the Palestinian Authority Guest: Peter Berkowitz Peter Berkowitz examines the Trump peace plan, which calls for an immediate ceasefire, the release of 50 remaining hostages (living and dead) within 72 hours, and the disarming of Hamas. Hamas disarmament is a crucial Israeli war aim. The central challenge is the future role of the Palestinian Authority (PA), which Berkowitz argues is corrupt, incompetent, weak, and lacks democratic legitimacy, having not held elections since 2005. International recognition of a Palestinian state is viewed as counterproductive, as it rewards proponents of armed struggle. The plan anticipates a pathway toward a Palestinian state only after substantial and comprehensive PA reform, including ceasing terror incitement and abandoning the goal of Israel's destruction. Given the security challenges and the history of Palestinian rejection of a state coexisting with Israel, the realistic possibility of a two-state solution is seen as many years in the future. 915-930 The Trump Peace Plan and the Problematic Role of the Palestinian Authority Guest: Peter Berkowitz Peter Berkowitz examines the Trump peace plan, which calls for an immediate ceasefire, the release of 50 remaining hostages (living and dead) within 72 hours, and the disarming of Hamas.

Given the security challenges and the history of Palestinian rejection of a state coexisting with Israel, the realistic possibility of a two-state solution is seen as many years in the future. 930-945 Houthi Attacks, Sanctions, and the Implications of a Gaza Ceasefire Guest: Bridget Toumey Bridget Toumey reports that the Houthis, who are well-organized and disciplined, attacked a Dutch ship in the Gulf of Aden and continued launching at least one missile and one drone at Israel, a slower pace than the nearly daily attacks seen in September. The Houthis also sanctioned 13 US oil and energy companies and their CEOs, citing the war in Gaza and US support for Israel. This announcement mirrored US sanctions and may be a precursor to resuming attacks against US-connected vessels. Israel's counter-Houthi air strikes have hit targets but have failed to deter the group, which also exploits connections with other terrorist organizations like al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). If the Gaza conflict ends, the Houthis might need a new casus belli to justify attacks, but they are willing to invent excuses if Iran wishes to continue stirring chaos. 945-1000 Life, Economy, and Chinese Threat Perception in Taipei, Taiwan Guest: Anne Stevenson-Yang Anne Stevenson-Yang reports from Taipei, Taiwan, a vibrant economy and republic vital to the global economy due to TSMC, the microchip maker. Taiwan is characterized by a wonderful public culture where honesty and personal safety are prevalent. Despite its high-tech focus, the economy suffers from problems common elsewhere, including increasing income inequality, unaffordability, high housing prices, and stagnant wages. Regarding geopolitical tensions, the average Taiwanese person is largely immune to the constant threat from China, having heard talk of belligerence for the last 30 years. However, there is apprehension related to China's grim economic winter and growing concern that the US protective umbrella may be receding, leading to more interest in investing in Taiwan's own defense. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Iran's Strategy, Setbacks for Hezbollah, and the Chinese Economic Lifeline Guest: Jonathan Sayah Jonathan Sayah discusses US efforts to bolster the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) with $230 million, intending to empower the national identity over sectarian militias like Hezbollah. Iran consistently seeks to arm its proxies, but Hezbollah is currently on its back foot, having lost leadership, money, and the Syria corridor due to Israeli attacks and the new regime in Syria. A peace deal in Gaza would significantly weaken Iran, as stability does not favor the Islamic Republic, which thrives by exploiting regional instability. The morale of the Islamic Republic has crumbled due to external defeats and internal incompetence (failing infrastructure, high inflation). Furthermore, Iran relies heavily on China to purchase oil, utilizing a money-laundering network to evade US sanctions, securing an economic lifeline for the regime in return for natural resources and infrastructure projects. 1015-1030 Iran's Strategy, Setbacks for Hezbollah, and the Chinese Economic Lifeline Guest: Jonathan Sayah Jonathan Sayah discusses US efforts to bolster the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) with $230 million, intending to empower the national identity over sectarian militias like Hezbollah.

Taiwanese self-identity is deepening, particularly among younger generations. However, concerns exist in Taipei that the US administration's "Fortress America" focus is inducing doubt about Washington's commitment to Taiwan's defense, a doubt China exploits. Harold also covers the historic rise of Takaichi Sanae as the LDP head in Japan, positioning her to become the first female Prime Minister. Takaichi is a conservative acolyte of former Prime Minister Abe Shinzo who emphasized increased defense spending to enhance the US-Japan alliance. Her selection was seen as an effort to bring conservative votes back to the LDP, responding to growing political frustration and capitalizing on sentiment against an influx of foreigners. 1045-1100 Taiwanese Resilience and Japan's New Conservative Leader Guest: Scott Harold Scott Harold discusses Taiwan's resilience, rooted in its democratic rule of law and high societal trust, which China attempts to undermine.

THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Europe Responds to Russian Harassment Without US Lead Guest: Mary Kissel Mary Kissel analyzes the European emergency summit in Copenhagen, convened due to alarming mysterious drone activity over European airports, likely instigated by Russia. This harassment, which includes potential risks like hitting a passenger jet, aims to create confusion and test the resolve of the continent. The outcome, focusing on a "drone wall," suggests that the EU is starting to take more responsibility for its own defense, a long-term goal of US presidents. Kissel notes that the US absence from the prominent conversation does not signal the end of NATO. She also highlights that politicians like Starmer and Meloni are moving toward stronger defense measures, realizing that their voting bases are unhappy with current economic and security outcomes 1115-1130 Syria's Search for Stability: Security Deals, the Golan Heights, and the Gaza Impact Guests: Ahmad Sharawi, Bill Roggio Ahmad Sharawi and Bill Roggio discuss Syrian President al-Sharaa's focus on stability and his pursuit of a security agreement with Israel. Negotiating away the Golan Heights is considered a non-starter for al-Sharaa's survival, as his father, Hafez Assad, is often seen as the man who lost the territory, and al-Sharaa would be domestically labeled a traitor by all segments of the Syrian population, including hardliners. A full peace agreement is out of the question, but a limited security agreement might be possible, allowing Israel to maintain its presence in the Golan Heights while potentially withdrawing from areas entered after the fall of the Assad regime. The end of the war in Gaza is expected to expedite negotiations between Syria and Israel toward a security deal, as it affects the optics of al-Sharaa making such a move in the Arab world. Al-Sharaa's main priority is removing Israeli presence and stopping Israeli air strikes inside southern Syria 1130-1145 Russia's Multi-Front War: European Drones, Space Threats, and Tomahawk Missiles Guests: John Hardie, Bill Roggio John Hardie discusses Russia's expanding conflict, which includes drones over European airports like Munich and Berlin, viewed by Denmark as Russian "gray zone" activity aimed at testing Western response. NATO has been slow to adopt cost-effective counter-drone measures, unlike Ukraine's use of mobile fire groups. Russia is also engaging in anti-satellite activity, with Russian satellites reportedly stalking UK military satellites in low Earth orbit. Russia continues to target Ukrainian energy infrastructure with massive barrages as winter approaches. The US is reportedly considering supplying longer-range Tomahawk missiles to allies for transfer to Ukraine. These missiles could strike deep into Russian military-industrial sites, which, coupled with economic pressure, might convince Putin to pause the war. 1145-1200 Russia's Multi-Front War: European Drones, Space Threats, and Tomahawk Missiles Guests: John Hardie, Bill Roggio J FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Gaza Ceasefire Talks: Hostages, Disarmament, and Hamas's Reach into Europe Guest: Joe Truzman Joe Truzman details the Gaza ceasefire negotiations, which center on the release of the remaining 48 hostages (living and deceased) within 72 hours, potentially in exchange for a significant number of Palestinian prisoners, including convicted terrorists. The central obstacle to peace is Hamas's refusal to disarm, viewing it as tantamount to surrendering their identity. Fighting has lessened, with Israel toning down air strikes, possibly to show goodwill to President Trump. Truzman emphasizes that if Hamas retains its arms, another conflict is inevitable. He also notes the rise in reported Hamas plots in Europe, something uncommon historically, indicating the organization may be branching out its operations and feeling emboldened, as seen in the recent deadly attack on a synagogue in Manchester. 1215-1230 Gaza Ceasefire Talks: Hostages, Disarmament, and Hamas's Reach into Europe Guest: Joe Truzman . 1230-1245 Maduro Regime Threatens US Embassy; Lula's Concern over US Pressure Guests: Alejandro Piña Esclusá, Ernesto Araújo Alejandro Piña Esclusá reports that Nicolás Maduro's chief negotiator, Jorge Rodríguez, falsely claimed a third party plans to assault the US embassy in Caracas, but Esclusá warns that Maduro himself ordered the operation. The regime is allegedly interested in the embassy because they believe opposition leader María Corina Machado is hidden there. The regime, which stole the election, is now persecuting and imprisoning more opposition members than ever to infuse terror into the population. Ernesto Araújo views an attack on the embassy—an action against the "only thing that's sacred in international relations"—as very serious, suggesting Maduro is desperate for a bargaining chip with the US. Brazil's Lula da Silva is reportedly worried about the seriousness of the US attitude toward Maduro and may be softening his stance with Trump, fearing what information might emerge regarding the Foro de São Paulo organization if the Maduro regime falls. 1245-100AM Maduro Regime Threatens US Embassy; Lula's Concern over US Pressure Guests: Alejandro Piña Esclusá, Ernesto Araújo

In today's episode, I'm tackling a common challenge for aspiring YouTubers: choosing the right channel type. This decision can often feel overwhelming, but I'm breaking it down into four distinct methods tailored to different personalities and thinking styles, empowering you to begin your channel with confidence.First, we explore the **Intersection Method**, a visual approach using a Venn diagram to find alignment between your passions, skills, and trending topics on YouTube. By combining what you love, what you excel at, and what's popular, you'll uncover channel ideas that are both compelling and marketable.Next, we examine the **Strategy First Method** for those who thrive on research. This method focuses on identifying popular but underserved niches. You'll analyze existing content to find opportunities that align with your interests, using tools like vidIQ and UberSuggest to gather insightful data for a strong channel foundation.Then, we discuss the **Backwards Engineered Business Method (BEB Method)**, essential for entrepreneurs using YouTube for marketing. This unique strategy starts with your end goals, guiding you to create content that aligns with your product or service, ensuring sustainable growth.Lastly, we cover the **Lab Method**, emphasizing experimentation. This approach allows you to test various video ideas while maintaining a consistent posting schedule, helping you identify what resonates best with your audience without committing to one concept too early.Throughout this episode, I share personal stories and practical steps for each method, encouraging you to overcome analysis paralysis and confidently launch your YouTube journey.If you're ready to dive in and start your YouTube channel, this episode offers the guidance and tools to make your ideas a reality.

It's been five years since Wendy Covey, CEO and Co-Founder of TREW Marketing, and Joe Sullivan, Founder of Gorilla 76, first joined Manufacturing Happy Hour, back when everyone was scrambling to figure out digital marketing during the pandemic.We sit down with them to explore which marketing fundamentals still deliver results and what new tactics manufacturers can't afford to ignore. The core truth hasn't changed: your best content still comes from extracting knowledge from industry experts. But where that content needs to live? That's completely different.PR is making a comeback, or as Wendy calls it, “the second coming of PR” while Joe shares how manufacturers can build knowledge bases from existing content to feed AI tools the right way.Both agree that becoming the best resource for your audience beats trying to game the system every time. And with showing up in ChatGPT becoming both more important and more challenging, manufacturers need to think beyond their own websites to build credibility across digital platforms.In this episode, find out:Why the best content still comes from extracting knowledge from industry expertsWhich timeless marketing strategies still deliver resultsThe surprising resurgence of PR and why engineers are starting to trust it more than everHow showing up in ChatGPT is getting harder, and what actually worksThe patience problem among industrial marketers and why ROI questions after 3 months miss the pointHow manufacturers are successfully using community-driven marketingWhat to look forward to at the Industrial Marketing Summit 2026 and why attendees keep coming backEnjoying the show?

It's feedback from Manufacturing All-Stars like you that keeps us going!Tweetable Quotes:“With generative search, they're placing more value in third-party placements. So it's still the idea of being a topical authority, but you can't just do it on your website. You need to be a topical authority in industry publications, Reddit, YouTube, and all these other sources.” - Wendy Covey“Whether it's Google or ChatGPT, they're trying to display the best information and the most helpful possible information. It's just getting packaged up differently. And how do you make sure you're part of what shows up? You build credibility for yourself.” - Joe Sullivan“A lot of digital strategies have evolved but are still tried and true. So that's educating your audience, and publishing content on a regular cadence. Knowing your audience and building a strong value proposition that speaks to their pain points.” - Wendy CoveyLinks & mentions:Industrial Marketing Summit 2026, an annual three-day gathering where manufacturing and industrial marketers connect to share practical insights, learn emerging strategies, and build community with peers facing similar challengesTREW Marketing, partners with B2B technical companies to establish strong marketing foundations, create engaging content strategies, and accelerate growth through research-backed campaigns tailored for engineering audiencesGorilla 76, an industrial marketing agency that helps B2B companies in the manufacturing ecosystem grow through outcome-focused marketing programs built specifically for industrial markets Make sure to visit

315 – Keep following JesusHave you ever been at a point in your life when you just didn't know what to do next? It could be a simple project you're working on at home, at school, or at work. It could be a career choice or something with long term consequences. Or it could be a major life change on a much grander scale. If you don't know where you're going, what do you do next?You've done all you're allowed to or know how to do, and the next step just isn't clear or doesn't seem possible for one reason or another.In this episode, we're going to talk about the very best thing to do when you don't know what to do, where you're going, or how to get there.It's all about starting with one thing Jesus tells you to do. Then another, and another.The more you follow Jesus, the more it clears the spiritual air and you can see more clearly where God is leading you.•••••••••Show notes: full transcript and Bible quotes--thebiblespeakstoyou.com/315.Text me your questions or comments.I'm putting together a special program called Guilt Free Faith.
