Welcome to Episode 245, this week we are joined by Ryan Vezina of Recycled Percussion. Ryan went viral last fall for participating in a New Hampshire hiking challenge where with no experience, he attempted to hike all 48 of New Hampshire's 4000 Footers in 7 days. He ultimately missed the 7 day mark but was successful in completing the challenge in 11 days total. Ryan gained a lot of attention and some controversy during the attempt and we covered the event on a dedicated episode back in October of last year. We've been in touch with him on and off and schedules have finally aligned to allow us to sit down with him to get his perspective. We will also learn about his background in other endurance activities and he will share more about his music and media activities. All this plus, its time to start planning for the 9-11 memorial on the summit of mount washington, a 91 year old hiker completes the AT, Flash Floods in the Grand Canyon, and we caught up with friend of show Dave Shits in the Woods as he left the White Mountains and is now entering Maine.   About Our Guest  Chaos and Kindness store - https://chaosandkindness.store/ On instagram  On Facebook  Recycled Percussion - https://www.recycledpercussion.com/ On Instagram  On Facebook  Tour Dates - Cake Theater  https://slasrpodcast.com/     Topics Welcome back Stomp again Search and Rescue trends  SLASR Crew and Ryan rate out summer  9/11 Memorial on Mount Washington next week  Greybeard becomes the oldest hiker to complete the Appalachian Trail Full Conditions Update  Rescue Me 5K  Dave Shits in the Woods update  Welcome Ryan from Recycled Percussion and Chaos and Kindness - starts at the 26 minute mark  Show Notes Apple Podcast link for 5 star reviews SLASR Merchandise SLASR LinkTree SLASR's BUYMEACOFFEE Order Hike Safe Card 48 Peaks website Nick's Instagram 9-11 Memorial on Mt Washington Greybeard completes the AT Rescue Me 5k Sponsors, Friends  and Partners Rek' lis Brewing Company Wild Raven Endurance Coaching burgeonoutdoor.com 48 Peaks - Alzheimer's Association Mount Washington Higher Summits Forecast Hiking Buddies  Vaucluse - Sweat less.

Finding the right part has long been one of the biggest friction points in the repair process. Multiple searches, outdated systems, phone calls and inconsistent data can slow down repairs and create uncertainty. United Recyclers Group CEO Kristi Werner joins Ratchet+Wrench Radio to discuss the launch of Auto Part Search — a new platform designed to make finding and purchasing recycled OEM parts faster, easier and more reliable for independent repair shops.

WTiN speaks with Priyanka Khanna, innovation director – scaling at Fashion For Good and Marianella Cervi, global head of programmes at The Fashion Pact about the organisations' initiative, the Circular Fibre Collective. The Circular Fibre Collective is a first-of-its-kind cross-industry initiative designed to accelerate the adoption and scaling of textile-to-textile (T2T) recycled and next-generation fibres across the global fashion industry. Estimates suggest that, if fully mobilised across the sector, up to 2 million tonnes of T2T recycled and next-generation material capacity could be achieved, helping to unlock the share of these materials to grow from less than 1% towards 8% of global fibre production by 2030, according to the Boston Consulting Group and Fashion for Good report.Cervi and Khanna speak about how the initiative was formed and what it can offer the industry. By joining forces to support shared objectives and collectively drive demand signals for these materials, they are optimistic the industry can unlock investment and scale T2T recycled and next-generation fibres. They touch upon the challenges the industry faces when it comes to implementing and scaling T2T recycling technologies and the funding it requires. To learn more please visit thefashionpact.org.

We were once again summoned from our break by the magic of water lilies.  Meanwhile, the Amazon Rainforest continues to deliver the hidden ruins of a grander past than experts had dared to imagine  before, thanks to LIDAR technologies. My invitation, this season, to you, dear friend, is to think of history as a kaleidoscope. We begin our journey by exploring the histories of Kalamary, which eventually became Cartagena de Indias, in order to understand the maneuvers of control and power that the conquering Spanish Empire deployed to control the wealth, both cultural and literal, of what they denominated as the New World.

August 5, 2026In this broadcast, host Tim Ozman reflects on the events of the previous day, claiming vindication for his analysis of the “meta script.” The episode focuses on the transition from “subjective opinions” to “empirical research” through media deconstruction. Ozman posits that world events are not random but are orchestrated by “Metascriptors”—high-level directors and government agents who seed future narratives into entertainment and news. The core of the discussion revolves around the August 4th (8/4) “JFK-ification” prediction for Donald Trump and the numerical patterns connecting the FBI, historical assassinations, and recent media “psyops” like the alleged death of Charlie Kirk.Breakdown of the 8/4 Assassination PredictionOzman asserts that his “pattern recognition” methodology correctly identified August 4th as a significant date for a staged assassination attempt on Donald Trump.* The “Correct” Prediction: Ozman notes that late on the night of August 4th, an individual identified as Janine Talley was arrested at a golf course in Los Angeles while waiting with an AR-15 and a cache of weapons. He frames this not as a “psychic” feat but as a result of analyzing predictive programming, such as the film Mickey 17, where a Trump-like character survives a bullet grazing his cheek.* The “Janine” Connection: The name of the would-be assassin, Janine, is highlighted as a recurring script element.The 8647 Pattern and Lincoln Memorial ConnectionThe broadcast details a complex numerical and symbolic web centered on the number 8647:* The Seashell Clue: Former FBI Director James Comey (a known author of spy thrillers) posted a photo of the number 8,647 arranged in seashells on a beach exactly 8,647 days after 9/11.* The Reflecting Pool: A man recently carved “8647” into the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.* The Judge: A judge named Janine (Janine Pirro) was rebuked by Trump for dropping charges against the man who carved the number into the pool.* The Umbrella Loop: Trump commented that the judge “folded like an umbrella,” which Ozman links back to the “Umbrella Man” from the JFK assassination—the closest bystander to the president when he was shot.10 Topics of Discussion* The Great Deconstruction Project: Scaling up the analysis of psyops using AI and “gig work” to name specific “Metascriptors”.* Skepticism as Suspension of Judgment: The requirement to enter an investigation with no pre-judgment, as “breaking news” is essentially a hoax.* The Two Timeline Diagram: Differentiating the “Blue Timeline” (reported history/news) from the “Metascript” (fake event timeline).* Conspiracy Theories as Subplots: How alternative narratives are often “planted” to keep “truthers” from questioning if the event itself is real.* The Blindfolded Skeptic: The challenge to prove an event is fake without relying on the provided media footage, focusing instead on structural flaws.* Technological Fakery: Analyzing the possibility that figures like Charlie Kirk use “full head masks” and “blood bags” (squibs) for staged casualty simulations.* History as “Lies Agreed Upon”: The idea that media and history are fabricated history used to steer the future.* Blood Ritual Symbolism: Discussing the recent “blood-obsessed” media from Perez Hilton and Ariana Grande as ritualistic programming.* Fukushima as a Recycled “311”: Analyzing the numerical connections between the 2004 Madrid bombings (911 days after 9/11) and the Fukushima disaster.* Realville Colony: A space for “Media Gnostics” who have unplugged from both mainstream news and “controlled opposition”.10 Notable Quotes* “Nobody on earth could make the case that everything is fake.”* “Breaking news is kind of a hoax... It's just a way of sensationalizing something.”* “Conspiracy theories are subplots... Manufactured rabbit trails for the truthers.”* “History has always been lies agreed upon. Media is lies agreed upon.”* “Belief is based on low information. Skepticism is high information.”* “We are not making stories here. We're making observations. Huge difference.”* “You should be like a blindfolded skeptic... able to make the case... without pointing at the screen.”* “If you're too dependent on the screen, then your entire breakdown and analysis is based on... the hope that they're going to screw up.”* “We won the mind war. We just have to scale it up.”* “They use the Charlie Kirk thing to gauge response for when, not if, when they deal with Trump.”Host Reading Audience Comments* Plane Decoded: “Plane says, do you mean you should be able to prove it without showing media of the event?”* Dr. Bass Ackward: “Dr. Bass Ackward says, the prefabricated rabbit holes never get you anywhere.”You can also now find IPS on the following Podcast platforms:APPLE:SPOTIFY:YT MUSIC: This is a public episode.

Every day, many of us look at the news from our favorite sources. However, it seems the stories are just recycled. The same divisions, the same politics, the same lack of justice, the same bizarre behaviors being normalized, the same political divisions, and the same never-ending establishment control and diminishing freedoms. Is it worth reporting? And without an analysis, what is a story worth?Now, do you believe in this ministry?

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1806DM He started making videos at 11. Now he's 27, and over a hundred million people watch every single upload. Somewhere in between, the comments almost broke him. "Kill yourself." "This sucks." Comments like that used to wreck his whole day after 50 hours of work. Then something shifted. He started sorting every comment into two piles. Noise. And truth. One piece of criticism changed how he does his biggest charity videos. Someone said he never showed people how to actually help. So the next video, giving 2,000 people prosthetic legs, included exactly how viewers could donate their old ones. Recycled and given to someone else for a hundred bucks instead of five thousand.

Did you know that hundreds of life-saving ultrasound machines are currently sitting unused in closets while rural clinics struggle to provide essential medical care? In this episode of the Prolife Team podcast, host Jacob sits down with Karla Sutter to discuss the incredible mission of Flutter and how recycling technology is saving lives around the globe.Karla shares the moving story behind Flutter, an organization that has placed over 260 ultrasound machines in ten years, reaching from small towns in Montana to medical clinics in Kenya and the Dominican Republic. You will learn about the critical need for rural pregnancy centers to go medical, the dangers women face without access to local scans, and how simple handheld technology is making bonding more accessible than ever before.Throughout the conversation, Karla emphasizes that going medical does not require a massive budget or a giant staff, it just requires a heart for life and a willingness to innovate. From her personal journey of finding hope in Genesis 50:20 to practical advice on nurse training and state coalitions, this episode is a call to action for anyone passionate about the pro-life movement.Chapters0:00 Opening Worship and Music4:45 Meet Karla Sutter and the Flutter Mission7:15 The First Machine: A Dominican Republic Miracle9:45 Addressing the Crisis in Rural Communities12:30 Success Story: Going Medical in Minnesota16:00 Essential Steps for Rural Pregnancy Centers19:15 The Importance of Medical Accessibility21:45 How to Donate Your Unused Ultrasound23:30 Karlas Story and the Power of Genesis 50:2026:45 Handheld Ultrasound Demo: Connecting Moms and Babies30:15 Cost-Effective Technology for Modern Clinics33:45 Innovation: Empowering 700 Non-Medical Centers37:15 Overcoming Fear and Board Hesitation41:00 Keeping Nursing Skills Sharp in Rural Areas44:30 The Medical Benefits of Frequent Scanning48:15 Virtual Training and Education Resources51:45 State Coalitions and Adopting Sister Clinics53:45 Closing Prayer and MusicIf you are part of a pregnancy center with an unused machine or a rural clinic looking to expand your services, don't wait.

What if we could recycle our trauma? Make it into something profoundly useful? Something to drive our thriving? Something to fuel our growth? We can! Listen in as adoptee and birth mother Anne inspires us all... Here's a bit about Anne from her website: "I know what it feels like to carry things that should have broken you. Adoption. Abuse. Addiction. Years of making choices that almost erased me completely. I also know what it feels like to get back up. Every single time. I raised my kids as a single mom while working two and three jobs for decades. There was no safety net. No one coming to save me. Just me, deciding over and over again that this was not where my story ended. I have reinvented myself more times than I can count. Not because it was easy or because I had it figured out. Because staying stuck was never an option I was willing to choose. That is what true grit actually looks like. Not one dramatic comeback. Decades of showing up, doing the work, falling down, and getting back up before anyone was watching." https://www.instagram.com/annepeshka/ https://annepeshka.com/ https://www.facebook.com/annepeshkaauthor/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/annepeshka/ Guests and the host are not (unless mentioned) licensed pscyho-therapists and speak from their own opinion only.

Ep 185: We're sharing an episode from our other music biz podcast, The Price of Music (follow it here! https://musically.lnk.to/TPOM) - because we went and had another chat with the team from EcoRecord, a couple of years after we first spoke to them here on Music Ally Focus. EcoRecord is a PVC-free, injection-moulded alternative to the traditional vinyl record, which cuts, they say, factory energy use by up to 85%, and swaps PVC for recyclable PET plastic. Recently, artists like Coldplay and Lorde have released versions of their albums using the process.We chatted to Sven Deutschmann, CEO of record manufacturer Sonopress, about what he's learned over the last two years of production, whether the records sound as good as traditional vinyl, how Coldplay have switched all of their back catalogue from PVC to PET, and if most records will be made this way in the future. (Plus, Joe gets very excited by some gold and silver coloured records.)------

New Zealand could recycle virtually all of its kerbside glass if Auckland and Christchurch got on board, according to a glass recycling expert. Chris Grant, who runs 5R solutions says Auckland only recycle about 50 percent of bottles and jars it collect because of contamination from other recyclable products. Chris Grant spoke to Lisa Owen.

Are you feeling wired but tired? Connected yet lonely? Inspired but completely stuck? In this episode of Soul Sessions, Amanda Rieger Green explains why we are experiencing a wild energetic recalibration in 2026. The frequencies of our planet are accelerating, and our physical bodies are struggling to keep up. This can cause us to get sucked back into "recycled energetic loops"—old narratives, resentments, and outdated identities. Instead of digging deeper into psychoanalysis or therapy to fix it, Amanda shares a powerful, highly effective physiological hack involving your subconscious daily habits (like brushing your teeth or driving) to instantly shift your brain hemispheres, create new neural pathways, and elevate your energetic baseline. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why you are feeling massive polarity in your energy field right now. How to become the observer of your consciousness without judgment. The "non-dominant hand" physiological trick to break negative thought loops. Why it’s time to put psychoanalysis on the shelf and focus on physics and physiology. What physical detox symptoms (ringing ears, sleep disruptions) mean for your field. We want to hear from you! What is shifting in your energy field? What are you experiencing telepathically or psychically right now? Are your dreams changing? Host: Amanda Rieger Green Subscribe to Amanda's YouTube HERE!

Welcome to Uptime Spotlight, shining light on wind energy’s brightest innovators. This is the progress powering tomorrow Allen Hall: James, welcome to the podcast. Thank you. There has been a lot of activity at EverPoint Services. So I wanna back up first because if you’re not familiar with EverPoint Services, they are a recycler f- for renewable projects.  James Timmins: So we’re a, a renewable energy service company that specializes in, um, decommissioning and remediation services for, uh, wind and solar assets. Allen Hall: So when a solar farm gets hit by hail and the panels are broken, EverPoint comes up and cleans up that mess to, to allow the repair to happen.  James Timmins: Correct, yes.  Allen Hall: And on the wind turbine side, you’re t- decommissioning wind turbines, but you’re also taking the [00:01:00] blades.  James Timmins: Yes. So it’s our responsibility to haul off the damaged, I guess, the scrap. And, um, obviously there’s a very healthy market for scrap steel that you find in the tower base- Yes … but the fiberglass is a little less straightforward when it comes to disposal and/or recycling.  Allen Hall: So typically with the fiberglass blades or any composite that’s, that’s being recycled, th- there’s really two techniques that are being implemented right now. Uh, well, really three. Let’s go over three of ’em. One of ’em is you can just bury them. They’re c- essentially construction materials, so you can bury them. Not ideal, but it has happened in the past. The second is they grind up the, the blades and use ’em in, uh, c- the cement-making process, where they’re burning some of the things that are combustible there and using it for fuel, but also the fiber can help with the cement. Does, does that sound right? Correct. And, and then the third one I’ve seen is just as a reinforcement product. [00:02:00] So it’s, uh, they chop up the fiber in different lengths, they clean it up, and you can u- use it as an additive to different products. Yes. And, and that generally has been the marketplace in the blade recycling area for- Going on 20 years now probably Yes Until now. And that’s where Everpoint has really changed the game because you’re thinking about blade recycling a completely different way.  James Timmins: Correct. So my background is oil and gas. I was a drilling engineer, uh, for major oil companies, so it was my job to plan, execute, and oversee drilling operations. So I worked kind of all over the world, and this project started as an icebreaker at a friend’s birthday. I had never met Tyler Goodell before. I- Wait,  Allen Hall: wait, wait. So you’re at a birthday party-  James Timmins: Yes …  Allen Hall: and your kids are having fun. They’re eating cake. Oh,  James Timmins: we were at a dive bar, so we- Oh, okay … yeah, watching a band, uh- … sitting over a bucket of Lone Stars and yeah.  Allen Hall: Okay. That’s the [00:03:00] best place for new ideas to occur clearly. So you’re, you’re, you’re at a birthday event, you’re hanging out, and what happens?  James Timmins: He asked me what, what I would do with tens of thousands of tons of scrap fiberglass.  Allen Hall: And you get asked that every day, or is it- No. Okay.  James Timmins: And I thought it was a weird question, and I kinda put it in the back of my mind. And about 15 minutes later I was like, “Well, I have an idea that we could, uh- Put at least some of that to work. Allen Hall: And what was that idea?  James Timmins: The idea was that we could grind it to a specific particle size distribution and use it as a fluid loss additive in oil, gas, and geothermal drilling operations.  Allen Hall: Okay. That’s a unique application.  James Timmins: Yes.  Allen Hall: So I think we need to walk into what happens when we’re drilling an oil well or any sort of well, I suppose. Uh, there’s unique things that happen that require specialty fluids or specially …  James Timmins: Uh, specialty additives you could say. Additives.  Allen Hall: Yes. [00:04:00] So- Okay. That’s a, that’s a good way to describe it. All right. So, uh, I’m drilling a well. I’m in Texas. I’m an oil tycoon. I wanna drill this well. What am I doing?  James Timmins: So you have what’s called drilling mud, which is pumped down the drill string through the bit. Um, helps cool the bit, um, power down hole tools, and sweep the cuttings out, which is the- Okay … drilled up rock.  Allen Hall: Yep.  James Timmins: So there’s a, a hydrostatic pressure that the fluid column exerts on the formation. And if that fluid column exerts more pressure than the formation can stand, it splits open like a fracture. Allen Hall: Okay.  James Timmins: In this case, an accidental fracture. Or you could have just a porous formation of, uh, low pressure. And so you have this pressure imbalance from the wellbore where the fluid wants to flow to the area of low pressure. And, uh, this mud is $300 or $400 a barrel. And if you’re- Whoa … losing 100 barrels an hour, the costs add up really quick. Can’t drill ahead. Um, it’s what’s called non-productive time. [00:05:00] So you’re spending 80 or $100,000 a day for all this equipment to be out there, and you’re not drilling ahead, so.  Allen Hall: Okay. So as the, the drill bit goes down into the formation, you’re hitting rock. You hit a crack in a rock, or you create a crack in a rock. All your drilling mud, and it’s not really mud, right? No, it’s- It’s, it’s a special compound-  James Timmins: Yes … that we call mud. Very,  Allen Hall: uh,  James Timmins: yeah, it’s drilling fluid, I guess, is the technical term. Okay . But, um- I’ve  Allen Hall: heard mud used universally.  James Timmins: It kinda looks like chocolate milk most of the time.  Allen Hall: There you go. Yeah. Okay. So it’s an expensive fluid. You’re pushing it down in, but then you get a, a crack or a formation that you run into, and all that precious fluid goes running off somewhere else. Yep. So which it doesn’t allow you to cool the bit, which basically stops all drilling.  James Timmins: Correct.  Allen Hall: Okay, that’s a big problem.  James Timmins: And in worst case scenario, the fluid column falls and the pressure on the formation falls, and then the well starts flowing and you have a well control problem, so. Allen Hall: So now you got a big problem.  James Timmins: Yep. [00:06:00] Allen Hall: All right. So now you have fluid coming back at you that you’re not ready for.  James Timmins: Correct, yeah.  Allen Hall: Okay, that seems like quite the mess.  James Timmins: Yeah, so it’s actually one of the… You know, in some parts of the world, one of the top drivers of non-productive time and cost. So it’s a, kind of a problem as old as the oil field itself, but… Allen Hall: Okay, c- ’cause at the end of the day, you would like to have a specific hole tapped at a specific location pulling-  James Timmins: Yes …  Allen Hall: hopefully petroleum products from that area or whatever you’re going for. It’s could, could be gas- Yeah … uh, off of that site, but you have to have some constraints about it, right? Right. You d- d- to control everything. Okay. So n- that sets the problem. All right. We’re gonna run to this, uh, area where we’ve, we’ve cracked the found- the, the rock or there’s porous rock and we’re pumping this, a really expensive fluid down it and we would like to stop that from happening. How does that end up involving wind turbine blade recycling? James Timmins: So we grind this material to a specific size and you mix it at a certain [00:07:00] concentration. Could be two pounds per barrel of mud or 80, uh, depending on the severity of the losses. But, um, this mixture is pumped down into the formation and this, um, kind of acts like a… Technical term is bridging. So this, these fibers from the recycled turbine blades cannot fit through all of the pore spaces. Sure. And gradually they be- begin to accumulate on the wall of the, the wellbore. So they- Okay … uh, eventually it’s kinda like a clogged sink with… You know, you get enough- So you get enough hair in the sink … chopped vegetables. Yeah. Yeah. It, it eventually will stop flowing.  Allen Hall: Oh, well, who hasn’t experienced that? So it’s, it’s… So you, you wanna put things down into this hole that prevent the fluid from running off. Recycled blades seems like a very viable option just because it’s in an inert substance, it’s pretty durable.  James Timmins: It is.  Allen Hall: It’s tough. It can handle high temperatures [00:08:00] and it now can be pumped.  James Timmins: Yes.  Allen Hall: Wow. All right. So that’s a, that’s a remarkable idea. But ideas and products, there’s usually a long distance between those two.  James Timmins: Correct, yes.  Allen Hall: So from initial concept to where you are today, walk through what you had to go do to make this into a real product.  James Timmins: Uh, so we… I basically have- was familiar with these types of products in the past, but at the level I was at, I was not getting into the granular detail-  Allen Hall: Sure James Timmins: of the qualification of the product, of the spec of the product. So, um, I kind of had to do a lot of research reading technical papers online about product development for this particular type of product. So, um, I started with a, basically in my garage, um, a geologist sieve. Okay. I got a sample of shredded fiberglass, which I think was, was like five-inch shred. So I [00:09:00] bought a blender from Target, not knowing what else to use, and I stuffed it down in, with a crescent wrench and blended it up and broke the blender and eventually got enough usable material to, uh, start testing it in a lab. And so-  Allen Hall: Oh …  James Timmins: there are third-party labs that do these kind of tests, and they’re all industry standard, um, prescribed methods, so they’re called mud checks and, uh, what’s called a pore plugging apparatus, which is like a, either a ceramic disc that’s simulates a formation and it’s porous, it’s got a certain permeability, or you have what’s called a slotted liner, which is a stainless steel plate with two-millimeter slots on it. And you put the mixture in, and you pressurize it, and if it stops it, then you know it works. So- So  Allen Hall: you’re plugging a hole- Yeah … in a laboratory,  James Timmins: basically. Exactly, and it’s under high temperature and pressure, so it’s designed to simulate kinda downhole conditions. But-  Allen Hall: [00:10:00] Wow. Yeah Okay, so- Got a  James Timmins: little into the weeds,  Allen Hall: but So you’re, no, you’re in your garage, you chop up some material, you go, “All right, let’s go check this out.” You, you get a, a- an independent laboratory to try it, and they say it works.  James Timmins: Yes.  Allen Hall: And then it’s, then you’re off to the races now because- Well, that’s what I thought … you opened Pandora’s box  James Timmins: Yeah … a  Allen Hall: little  James Timmins: bit. So I was not expecting how much, how rigorous the t- the qualification would be on the industry side as well. Right. Sure. Yeah So, um, that was kind of the starting line for, uh, product qualification, but, um, I had a very coarse particle size, thinking that would be adequate because I was not familiar with what’s actually used.  Allen Hall: What the ingredients are, yeah.  James Timmins: Right. So, um, I was kinda shopping it around to friends, and they’re like, “It’s a niche product where it is right now. It needs to be finer.” So that’s kind of been the process is, okay, it needs to be [00:11:00] this particle size D50, which is 50th percentile mean particle size, basically. And so then the question is how do we get there? And- Right … so- Grinding composites  Allen Hall: can be difficult because- It is … they’re tough, and they’re, as you have learned with the, the- The- blender experiment  James Timmins: Right … chopping them is not easy. Right. Very abrasive, uh, very high tensile strength. It’s basically designed not to be cut or not to be torn. Um-  Allen Hall: Right. That’s why we love it …  James Timmins: not to be, not to ever degrade in weather. So it has been an ongoing Kind of research project to find out what’s the best equipment for this, uh, can we do this at, you know, a reasonable cost? ‘Cause it’s not gonna be as cheap as grinding up or, you know, picking up sawdust from a sawmill or- Right … or chopping up cedar trees or whatever. So- Which  Allen Hall: are generally soft and easy to, to chop and-  James Timmins: Right. And not nearly as abrasive and so- Right … we [00:12:00] have identified, um, a process that we think is economical, and we’ve demonstrated it in, you know, kind of a small commercial run. But, uh, you know, it’s kind of going back and forth to consumers and them saying, “We want this product size,” and then me going back and forth to our partners saying, “Can we do this? Can we do a lot of it? Can we do it-”  Allen Hall: Right. The quantity’s gonna  James Timmins: be big. Right. Exactly. So, you know, talking to equipment manufacturers, they’ll all tell you that their product, their, their machine can handle this material. And they’re usually all right, but, you know- Can they  Allen Hall: handle the quantity?  James Timmins: Exactly. Without- They can do it for a month, or, you know, six months, and then it’s, well, do we have to overhaul the whole machine now ’cause this- That’s it … yeah.  Allen Hall: It’s, those composites are rough on blades.  James Timmins: Yep.  Allen Hall: So you’ve, you’ve broken through that barrier. You obviously have figured out a way to, to chop the material down or grind the material down into the right particle size. So [00:13:00] now you have a material that is, one, clean, is using existing blades right off the turbines, being ground down, and is a, a product that will be consumed by industry in large quantities. James Timmins: Yes.  Allen Hall: So all these blades that have, that were gonna be recycled anyway because of the age of the turbine now have a home-  James Timmins: Yes …  Allen Hall: in the oil and gas industry, which is sort of ironic, right? Right. The renewable industry is taking over oil and gas. At the same time, we’re supporting it in a way, but, uh, the product is called what? James Timmins: BladeBlock.  Allen Hall: BladeBlock. Okay. Great name. So BladeBlock is then, is a product that’s, it comes in a, in a bag, or is it a cylinder? Is it a truckload?  James Timmins: Comes in whatever the customer wants it to come in.  Allen Hall: Okay.  James Timmins: So 50-pound sacks, uh, super sacks, or bulk trucks.  Allen Hall: So it must have a really unique, uh, application i- in terms of, I have a big problem where I can’t use off-the-shelf expensive mud. I need to f- fill this hole relatively quickly. [00:14:00] I’m just gonna go grab some BladeBlock and solve this problem right now.  James Timmins: Yes.  Allen Hall: And, and it… So that changes the industry quite a bit. So places that you may have had trouble drilling wells in, you can now drill wells.  James Timmins: Yes.  Allen Hall: That’s remarkable. So what has been the response from the industry? James Timmins: Uh, they love it. Um- I bet … they love the idea. They, they kind of giggle at the irony of- … you know, oil and gas solving a renewable problem. Um, and-  Allen Hall: And a renewable problem solving an oil and gas problem.  James Timmins: Right. We are selling on the performance and the cost of the product, but there is also a sustainability and circular economy, you know, aspect as well that is marketable, and there’s still an appetite on both the operator side and the oil field service side for that. Allen Hall: This is not a… We’re in Texas at the moment, but this is not a Texas, Oklahoma, N- uh, New Mexico kind of problem. You’re actually fixing problems globally with BladeBlock.  James Timmins: Yes.  Allen Hall: So the product is, [00:15:00] although made in the United States, can be shipped anywhere I would assume. Yep. So, uh, y- are you getting any requests outside of the United States for it? James Timmins: We have talked to overseas partners, I guess, kind of industry leaders overseas, and there is definitely some interest. Um, we are also talking to, uh, service companies domestically headquartered who have operations internationally who have expressed interest in, uh, using it overseas. But, I mean, right now, you know, we’re close enough to the ship channel that we can ship it wherever they want it. That’s amazing.  Allen Hall: And it’s a patented product also,  James Timmins: right? Yes. So- We are in the… I guess, we’ve received our notice of allowance, and we’re in the final stages of issuance, so.  Allen Hall: So you have a, a patented, US patented, or is it, is it a world patent? Are you, you going outside the United States- Uh, we will … on patent? James Timmins: Yes.  Allen Hall: Wow. All right. So you have eventually a somewhat global patent, so to speak. That’s not how it works, but it… that’s essentially [00:16:00] what you’ll have, uh, for BladeBlock to solve problems globally. Would, would that also involve, like, offshore wells too? Yes. Do they have the same problem? So I’m thinking of Texas ’cause we’re here, but offshore of the coast of Norway where they’re drilling wells, or in the North Sea or-  James Timmins: Persian Gulf. Yeah …  Allen Hall: Persian Gulf, sure, that they can use BladeBlock to solve some of their problems- Yes … which they couldn’t have solved today.  James Timmins: Yeah.  Allen Hall: So d- have they abandoned wells because of this problem?  James Timmins: Yes. Um, especially in certain formations you have what are called vugs, which are basically just large limestone caves that have been-  Allen Hall: Limestone  James Timmins: is tough. Yeah … so you can put a whole car down there if you want- … and, uh, still not fill it in. So, um, you know, this product, it basically is practically inexhaustible from you know, it’s… We’re kind of only limited by how much we can manufacture on- How much you can  Allen Hall: process …  James Timmins: right. So, um- It’s kind of a good problem to have for us, but  Allen Hall: [00:17:00] Yes. It changes the whole dynamic of blade recycling, because the blade recycling effort up to this point has been the operator or the OEM pays the recycler to grind the blades, and then they have to find a way to source out that material. But the, basically everybody’s trying to reuse the material because it, it does have value. How do we best reuse this, right? This is what the recycling efforts are on the recyclable blade, uh, resin systems that are happening. But you’re just taking the existing blades that weren’t meant to be recycled and recycling now in a product that has a lot of value.  James Timmins: Correct, yes. So obviously the biggest challenge everyone faces is the economics of it. And you-  Allen Hall: You know how many people have been working on that problem? Literally thousands of people have been working that problem, and you guys figured it out at a birthday event.  James Timmins: Yeah, uh- … totally out of left field. Um, it, it just, it’s one of those things that sticks in the back of your head, and you think about it for 10 minutes, and you’re like, “Oh, uh, why-” But  Allen Hall: I have [00:18:00] a, I have a solution. Like, we can use it here. Yeah, which, you know, most people, that would never have occurred to.  James Timmins: Right. And it’s kind of a technical rabbit hole, like the drilling fluid is- It is … it’s, it’s, so it’s not a whole lot of people out there thinking about lost circulation material- … uh, on a daily basis. Um, but that was, you know… The problem with so many of these applications is you’re competing with, in some cases, literal dirt and sand. We pay f- five cents a pound for sand or concrete filler, fly ash, whatever, and it’s like, well, you’re never gonna process it that cheap, or you’re never gonna way to, to be able to economically process it that cheaply, so. Allen Hall: Sure, but there’s unique applications where those things don’t work.  James Timmins: Right.  Allen Hall: And you can now make an unprofitable drill hole profitable.  James Timmins: Yes.  Allen Hall: That’s a game changer. So this is remarkable, and I, I know you guys have been working on this for a couple of years, and it’s, EverPoint has always been, [00:19:00] and we’ve talked to EverPoint for a couple of years now on the podcast of, when we talk to recyclers, we don’t act- we actually have talked to a number of recyclers, but we don’t have them on the podcast because it’s, seems like the amount of material coming into their facility and the amount of material going out are not the same. Correct. They’re landfilling them or whatever’s going on, which is, it, it to me is trouble, right?  James Timmins: Right.  Allen Hall: You, your, EverPoint has always been, “We are actually gonna do what we say we’re gonna do. We’re gonna take the solar panels, we’re gonna recycle, we’re gonna…” You’ll be able to follow it. Correct, yeah. Which is one of the technologies that EverPoint brought, is you could follow your recycling product all the way from the site to where it finally ended up at. That was remarkable. That was an industry-changing, uh, idea, and I appreciate that EverPoint was doing that. Now, you’re actually turning it into a viable product called Blade Block. Game changer. Now, our podcast is probably not heard by a lot of oil and gas folk, but the, you know, the word does spread and we [00:20:00] have almost two million YouTube subscribers at this point. How do people get ahold of you to purchase BladeBlock? Do they go onto your website? Are they-  James Timmins: Yeah. I mean, LinkedIn, website.  Allen Hall: Okay. However.  James Timmins: Yeah.  Allen Hall: So- And, and what’s your website address?  James Timmins: It’s everpointservices.com.  Allen Hall: Okay. And you’re based in Texas?  James Timmins: We are. Houston.  Allen Hall: In Houston, right. So the, everybody that is interested in having improved oil and gas drilling mud, uh, can use BladeBlock now, and it’s a viable product that’s being offered, it’s patented, it’s gonna ship globally. It’s the right time and it’s the right way to recycle your blades. So if you have a, a wind turbine farm that’s being decommissioned, there’s a lot of repowering happening right now, uh, there should be a lot of, of blade material available to make BladeBlock with. So congratulations. That’s remarkable. James Timmins: Thank you so much.  Allen Hall: James, so thank you so much for being on the podcast. Of course. It was great to meet you.  James Timmins: Nice to meet you as  [00:21:00] well.

In this episode, Domenic Di Mondo, CEO of GreenMantra Technologies, sits down with Host Kara Pochiro to explore the next frontier of plastics recycling. GreenMantra's innovation converts recycled plastics into high-performance synthetic waxes that can be used in a variety of products that last 20-50+ years. Domenic explains why no single solution can solve the plastics waste challenge and how allowing ourselves to utilize as many complimentary pathways as possible is key. 

STARDATE: Your Mother.SYSTEM STATUS: CORRUPTED / DELAYED / POSSIBLY HAUNTED ⚠️ RECOVERED FRAGMENTS

Recorded on my mom, Cathy Packwood's, birthday, I'm covering a topic she has become passionate about – microplastics and how and why society should end the production and circulation of plastics, for the health of humans and other animals and our shared habitats – and how can we work individually in our homes (that's hard), and collectively as engaged citizens (that's hard too, especially in this administration), to create a healthier existence free from plastics; even recycling plastics causes toxins and can perpetuate reliance on plastics!  See Greenpeace's Forever Toxic recycling report (not recycling is a hard one for me since I have spent so many hours cleaning and recycling plastic for decades -- should we just throw plastic containers in the trash when we can't avoid getting them?!) It's time to replace this chemical-filled, unhealthy (albeit convenient) product with something sustainable, reusable, nontoxic, and non-polluting (especially around our food and drink items); we discuss how plastics are made of fossil fuels (petroleum) that adds to the climate crisis, so a plastic-free future goes hand in hand with a clean-energy future, where communities could be more resilient from the fluctuating oil market inflated prices, like now with the U.S. war with Iran, if we weren't so reliant on plastics. To tell us about this herculean personal and public effort is our guest Lindsey Jurca, Senior Plastics Campaigner at Greenpeace. Lindsey talks about their work with nations worldwide developing a "Global Plastics Treaty" with some teeth in it, to turn off the plastic cycle that is drowning us all in toxins. Join us to talk solutions in this 49-minute conversation in honor of my mom Cathy's birthday (I got her a lot of bamboo kitchen utensils and natural sponges and glass spray jars for a plastic-free kitchen).  A resource is https://www.greenpeace.org/usa/fighting-plastic-pollution/  "In Tune to Nature" is an hour-long radio show airing Wednesdays at 6pm Eastern Time on 89.3FM-Atlanta radio and streaming worldwide on wrfg.org (Radio Free Georgia, a nonprofit indie station) hosted by me, Carrie Freeman, or friend Melody Paris.

What actually happens after you donate a bag of clothes? Most people assume it gets sold locally to someone in need, but the reality is much bigger, stranger, and more global. In this episode of Infinite Loops, hosted by OSV's Nick Tawil, we sit down for a roundtable on the hidden global economy of secondhand textiles with Brian London, Marisa Adler, and Eric Stubin, all experts in the field. We discuss how the industry works, why fast fashion has made the problem harder, why 70% of the world uses secondhand clothing, what AI can and can't solve, and why turning an old shirt into a new shirt is still much harder than it sounds.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Are you still optimizing your agency's content for Google while your clients are getting their answers from AI? Are you charging for the execution that AI is about to make obsolete, while giving away the strategy that commands real fees? Today's featured guest works with agencies navigating the shift from traditional search to generative engine optimization. He'll talk about what the Anthropic research actually says about how much of the work agencies do today can be automated, how AI reads content differently than Google does, and the practical steps any agency can take right now to show up in AI-generated answers before competitors figure it out. Tom Lee is an AI search and SEO specialist and co-founder of Visto, a platform that helps agencies build the visibility and optimization layer for the AI search era. Tom and his team advise agencies on generative engine optimization, or GEO, and how to position their clients to show up in AI-generated answers across platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. His background includes working inside large enterprise companies including Apple and Walmart, where he managed SEO at scale. He now works directly with SEO and GEO agencies helping them build the strategic frameworks and content systems that translate traditional search authority into AI visibility. In this episode, we'll discuss: Is your value proposition still execution? Why GEO does not replace SEO Repackaging existing content will get you nowhere Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio Sponsors and Resources E2M Solutions: Today's episode of the Smart Agency Masterclass is sponsored by E2M Solutions, a web design and development agency that has provided white-label services for the past 10 years to agencies all over the world.

What the Anthropic Research Actually Says Tom referenced an Anthropic study published earlier this year that mapped out the theoretical automation potential across industries. For software development, AI can already handle around 35% of code generation, with a theoretical ceiling of 97%. For business and marketing functions including SEO, that ceiling is 94%. In his view, those numbers are not a reason to panic, but they are a reason to get clear on which part of the work you are actually selling. The agencies at risk are the ones whose value proposition is execution. Writing the content, building the links, pulling the reports: if that is what you are charging for, you are in the category that AI is actively compressing. The agencies that will hold their ground and grow their fees are the ones charging for judgment. Which topics to chase. Which content gaps matter. How to translate client expertise into something AI will actually cite. That is the 6% that automation cannot touch, and it is also the highest-margin work in the engagement. GEO Is Built on Top of SEO, Not Instead of It Something that gets lost in the noise around AI search is that GEO does not replace SEO. It extends it. Showing up in Google search results is still the foundation. What has changed is that showing up is no longer enough. AI reads content the way a human being reads it, evaluating whether the argument is convincing and whether the source is credible, not just whether the right keywords appear in the right density. That changes what good content has to do. The practical starting point Tom recommends is mapping what he calls the semantic space for a client: Identifying what topic areas people are actually raising in AI conversations that the client should be part of. From there, you translate that semantic space into specific prompts, run those prompts across the major AI platforms, and audit what comes back. Who is being cited? Where is the client showing up and where are they absent? What content is AI pulling from competitors that the client has not produced yet? That gap analysis is the strategic deliverable that commands real fees. It is also the work that no AI tool will do for you, because it requires knowing what the client actually wants to be known for. Why Repackaging Existing Content Gets You Nowhere Once you're clear about the topics your audience is looking for, there's something that will for sure not work the way many think it does. When you identify a content gap and ask AI to fill it, you get repackaged information drawn from the same sources the AI already used to generate the gap. That content does not move anything forward. AI knows where it got the data from. Recycled information does not earn citations. What earns citations is new data, original perspective, and subject matter expertise that advances the conversation rather than summarizing what already exists. The 5 step system Tom uses with his clients: Identify the content gaps Build a specific set of questions tied to those gaps Send those questions to a subject matter expert at the client Have them record a Loom or voice memo answering freely Use AI to transcribe and chunk that recording into content The raw material is original. The expertise is real. The content that comes out earns its place in the semantic space rather than competing with what is already there. Your Clients Are Training AI. Are You Helping Them Do It Right? The broader point running through this conversation is one that matters whether you run an SEO agency or not. AI systems are being trained on open-source content: social media posts, forum conversations, podcast transcripts, FAQ pages, markdown-formatted content. Every piece of content a client publishes is either building their presence in that training data or failing to. Agencies that understand this and can show clients where they are absent, who is filling that space instead, and what it would take to reclaim it, are in a fundamentally different conversation than agencies still talking about keyword rankings. The founders who will build authority in this environment are the ones creating real content from real expertise, showing up broadly enough to be present in the long tail of AI conversations, and charging for the strategic thinking that makes all of it coherent. The execution is becoming a commodity. The strategy never was. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset? Looking to dig deeper into your agency's potential?

If your content sounds like everyone else's and your sales feel slower than they should, this episode is going to call out exactly why. In this episode of The Real Truth About Business podcast, I'm breaking down how downplaying your unique selling point is quietly hurting your business strategy and revenue growth. This is for service-based entrepreneurs who are blending in, using generic titles, and wondering why their offers aren't standing out in a crowded market. After 9 years of experience, I can tell you this isn't about needing better tactics. It's about owning what actually makes you different. Inside this episode, I walk you through how your background, experience, and perspective are the key drivers of your sales process, and why trying to “fit in” is costing you clients.What You'll Learn:Why your unique selling point is critical for business growthHow downplaying your experience impacts your conversion rateThe difference between generic positioning and differentiated messagingHow to use your background to strengthen your pricing strategyWhy sounding like everyone else is slowing your sales processHow to stand out in a saturated, AI-driven marketEpisode Highlights:[00:00] Introduction: The problem with trying to fit in[02:00] Michelle's realization about her true positioning[05:00] Why your background is your biggest differentiator[07:30] Client example: content strategist vs. revenue strategist[09:30] Selling yourself vs. selling deliverables[11:00] Why generic messaging is hurting your salesKey Takeaways:Fitting In Is Costing You SalesHere's what I see constantly. Service-based entrepreneurs trying to label themselves in a way that feels familiar, safe, and easy to understand.After 9 years of working with business owners, I can tell you this is one of the fastest ways to blend into the noise.When you call yourself the same thing as everyone else, your audience has no reason to choose you. Your business strategy becomes interchangeable. And when that happens, your pricing strategy and sales process both get harder.Because now the only thing left to compete on is price or personality.Your Background Is Your Biggest AdvantageThe thing that makes you different is not something you need to create. It already exists.Your past experience. Your previous career. The way you think. The lens you bring into your work.That is your unique selling point.Inside the Focused Visionary Framework, this directly impacts all three pillars. Your positioning affects your pricing, your pipeline, and your sales process. If you're not clearly communicating what makes you different, your entire system weakens.Stop Selling Deliverables. Start Selling PerspectiveOne of the biggest mistakes I see is people listing what they do instead of how they think.Features. Deliverables. Packages.That's not what people buy.People buy the way you solve problems. They buy your perspective. They buy how you approach business strategy and revenue growth.When you lead with that, your messaging becomes stronger. Your audience connects faster. Your conversion rate improves because they understand why you specifically are the right fit.Generic Messaging Is Slowing Down Your GrowthWe are in a market where everything sounds the same.AI-generated content. Recycled strategies. Copy-paste messaging.And it's creating hesitation in buyers.When your content sounds like everyone else's, buyers take longer to decide. Your buyer journey gets longer. Your pipeline slows down.Differentiation is what speeds that up.You Don't Need a Better Title. You Need Better PositioningIt's not about finding the perfect title. It's about owning what makes you different and being willing to explain it.When you use language that actually reflects your expertise, people lean in. They get curious. They want to understand more.That's what drives conversations. That's what drives sales.And that's what creates real business growth.Resources MentionedSubscribe to Back Pocket Insights for FREEBook a CEO Strategy Call Learn more about The Missing Piece IntensiveLearn more about The Focused Visionary AcceleratorDownload the FREE Lead and Conversion TrackerSubscribe to the Sunday Morning Brew NewsletterAbout the Host:Michelle DeNio is a business strategist based in Sarasota, Florida, specializing in helping service-based entrepreneurs break through revenue plateaus using her Focused Visionary Framework.

Episode 994 of The Professional Left takes a hard look at the war on memory — the long, grinding campaign to erase what actually happened to this country and replace it with a comfortable myth that lets the people who caused the damage off the hook. A fascinating breakfast conversation between a writer and ten of his late father's Trump-voting friends provides the jumping-off point, raising a question that cuts right to the heart of everything: where exactly are these voters getting their opinions about Democrats, and has any of them ever actually listened to one? Driftglass and Blue Gal dig into the epidemic of recycled lies that keeps millions of Americans firmly convinced that Both Sides are equally to blame, no matter how much evidence piles up to the contrary. And with episode 1000 just around the corner, this one serves as a sharp reminder of why remembering clearly and accurately — and saying so out loud — is one of the most radical acts left in American politics.Links for this episode: Open Letters by Mersault – https://patricemersault.substack.com/Driftglass's guest appearances this week:Bob Cesca Show (May 20, 2026): https://www.bobcesca.com/the-bob-cesca-interview-driftglass-day-5-20-26/Nicole Sandler Show (May 20, 2026): https://nicolesandler.com/5-20-26/BradCast (May 21, 2026): https://bradblog.com/?p=16941Stay in Touch! Email: proleftpodcast@gmail.com Website: proleftpod.com Support via Patreon: patreon.com/proleftpod or Donate in the Venmo App @proleftpodMail: The Professional Left, PO Box 9133, Springfield, Illinois, 62791Support the show
