“Following” usually means scrolling past someone's highlight reel. But Jesus calls us to something entirely different. Pastor Mike explores what it really meant when Jesus said, “Follow me”—and why some ordinary guys dropped everything to do it. You'll see that following Jesus isn't about casually liking his content but living under his direction. It's not always easy, but it's real, it's deep, and it leads to something far better than anything the world can offer.
Er ist ein Hustler, ein Karrierist, bereit für den großen Erfolg über Leichen zu gehen. Marty Mauser, Timothée Chalamet, Josh Safdie - auf sie alle könnte das irgendwie zutreffen. Jetzt ist der Film, den man monatelang in Junkets und Reels beworben hat, endlich im Kino und....irgendwie ganz okay geworden? Christian spricht mit Lucas Barwenczik und Fynn Benkert über "Marty Supreme". Unterstützt uns gerne für exklusive Folgen: https://steadyhq.com/cuts
Was bleibt von 50 Clips in 20 Minuten eigentlich hängen? Plattformen wie TikTok, Instagram oder YouTube maximieren mit Autoplay und Endlos-Scrollen die Verweildauer. Social Media wird zur Binge-Maschine, sagt die Beraterin, Autorin und Medienwissenschaftlerin Prof. Dr. Alexandra Borchardt, die an TUM School of Management der TU München als Honorarprofessorin Leadership und Digitalisierung lehrt. Aber wie nachhaltig wirkt das Binge Watching dieser kurzen Videos und Reels? Im Gespräch mit Christian Jakubetz geht es aber nicht nur um diese Frage, sondern darum, ob Social Media womöglich schon seinen Höhepunkt überschritten hat. Es geht um algorithmische Logiken, Personal Branding, um die Zukunft linearen Fernsehens und welche Rolle Events heute spielen können. Zentral ist dabei die Rolle von KI und ob sogar ein Backlash im Raum steht: Überdruss durch KI-generierte Inhalte, Zweifel an der Echtheit und eine wachsende Sehnsucht nach Authentizität.

Welcome to the Success With Jewelry podcast, your go-to source for honest conversations about marketing, mindset, and what it actually takes to grow a jewelry brand. In Episode #163, we're revisiting a topic that's never flashy but always effective: email marketing. While everyone is chasing social media trends (Reels are out… carousels are in… or are they?), email continues to be one of the most reliable ways to generate consistent sales. If you're craving more predictable revenue, stronger collector relationships, and less dependence on algorithms, this episode is for you. We talk about why email still works, what most designers misunderstand about list size and segmentation, and how consistency actually keeps you out of spam — even if it feels counterintuitive.
Remember when Reels were all dancing, pointing, lip-syncing — and going viral meant you "made it"? It worked. But there was zero substance. In this episode of the Authority season, we're unpacking the difference between visibility and authority — and why optimising for attention instead of trust is exhausting, unsustainable, and quietly eroding your positioning. Because here's the truth: Getting seen and getting trusted are two very different things. If you're constantly performing for the algorithm, chasing trends, or feeling deflated when "good content" doesn't hit — you're building around noise, not leadership. Authority-led visibility is built differently. It's slower. Clearer. Repetitive. Intentional. And it compounds. Inside this episode, Tori breaks down how to move from attention-seeking marketing to authority-building positioning — and why the question isn't "How do I grow faster?" but "What do I want to be known for?"
Tu postes des reels sur Instagram tous les jours mais tu ne signes aucun client ? Tu te demandes pourquoi ton contenu ne convertit pas malgré tous tes efforts ?Dans cet épisode, je reçois Valentine Helsmoortel, créatrice du Weekly Social Club et experte Instagram qui a développé une stratégie complète pour transformer les reels en vraie machine à clients.
Épisode 1440 : Il y a 5 ans et demi, les réels débarquaient sur Instagram avec une ambition très claire et assumée par la direction : marcher sur les plates bandes de TikTok. Mais les utilisateurs d'Instagram n'étaient pas prêts pour ça et après une levée de boucliers la Plateforme a fait marche arrière alors que des déploiements étaient en cours.Aujourd'hui, l'histoire pourrait bien se reproduire, mais cette fois-ci, est-ce que cela dérangerait vraiment les utilisateurs ?Instagram met les Reels au centre du jeuInstagram ne cache plus ses priorités. La plateforme expérimente un nouveau design qui place les Reels au cœur de l'expérience utilisateur.Concrètement, l'application pourrait désormais s'ouvrir directement sur le flux Reels et offrir beaucoup plus de possibilité de filtre sur le contenu du feed.Une nouvelle navigation centrée sur les ReelsDans cette version test l'écran d'accueil ouvre sur le feed Reels. Comme sur Tiktok. On le sait, Instagram teste cette version depuis déjà plusieurs mois, offrant déjà à certains utilisateurs intensif de reels une version qui ouvre directement sur le feed de vidéo.Les captures d'écran qui circule pour ce nouveau design d'Instagram, montre surtout l'apparition d'un nouveau bouton. Placé au centre de l'application.Cette nouvelle icône donne accès à un espace appelé “Your Feeds”.Dans cet espace, l'utilisateur peut choisir différents flux Reels : Following, Friends, Latest, Saved.Autrement dit : Instagram donne davantage de contrôle… avec toujours un focus autour de la vidéo courte.La grosse nouveauté réside dans le fait que cette interface permettra de paramétrer ce que ‘on a vraiment envie de voir./ Juste le contenu de mes favs. Juste le contenu vidéos tout frais, juste le contenu post sans réel.Le message est clair : la vidéo courte est devenue l'ossature de la plateforme.—Pourquoi Instagram fait ce choix ? Les chiffres parlentFin 2024, Meta annonçait : 3,5 milliards de Reels partagés chaque jour sur Facebook et Instagram.50 % du temps passé sur Instagram consacré aux Reels.Quand l'usage bascule, le design suit.Instagram ne fait qu'officialiser une réalité déjà installée.—Les photos ne disparaissent pas… maisAdam Mosseri répète que les photos restent importantes.Que le feed classique ne va pas disparaître.Mais les usages parlent d'eux-mêmes.—Ce que ça change pour les marquesSi Instagram ouvre demain par défaut sur les Reels :La première impression sera vidéo.Les marques qui misent encore majoritairement sur le post statique prennent un risque.La bataille de l'attention se joue d'abord en format vidéo.———————C'est une petite mise à jour.Mais elle va parler à beaucoup de monde.Instagram permet désormais d'éditer la miniature affichée dans la grille de profil.Instagram vous laisse enfin retoucher votre grilleJusqu'ici, la miniature affichée sur votre profil était figée.Si le cadrage était raté.Si l'élément clé était coupé.Si votre grille perdait en cohérence visuelle.Trop tard.Désormais, Instagram permet :…Retrouvez toutes les notes de l'épisode sur www.lesuperdaily.com !

Click here to sign up for Patreon B-Sides Formed in late 90s Northern California, Tsunami Bomb stood out immediately, blending sharp lyrics, melodic hooks, keyboards as a true lead instrument, and dual female vocals into a sound that mixed punk urgency with pop instincts and a darker edge. Early releases like The Invasion from Within! and constant touring built a global following, while 2002's The Ultimate Escape on Kung Fu Records pushed them further, later landing on Rolling Stone's Top 50 pop punk albums of all time. After lineup shifts and a long hiatus, they returned in 2015 with founding members Dominic Davi, Oobliette Sparks, and Gabriel Lindman alongside Kate Jacobi and Andy Pohl, ushering in a new era that led to 2019's The Spine That Binds on Alternative Tentacles. Still evolving, they've continued touring the U.S. and Europe, and in 2026 teamed with Hammerbombs for the split EP Bombs Away! on Rad Girlfriend Records, proving that nearly three decades in, Tsunami Bomb is still restless, relevant, and very much alive.

Bundeskanzler Merz ist zurück von seiner China-Reise. Das Land spielt bei der Unterstützung des russischen Kriegs gegen die Ukraine eine wichtige Rolle. In Peking wollte der Bundeskanzler u.a. seine Gastgeber dazu bringen, sich stärker für eine Beendigung des Ukraine-Krieges einzusetzen. In einem gemeinsamen deutsch-chinesischen Statement wird immerhin die "Ukraine-Frage" erwähnt. Und: Die früher regelmäßigen Regierungskonsultationen zwischen Deutschland und China sollen wieder aufgenommen werden, nachdem sie in den letzten Jahren ins Stocken geraten waren - ein Erfolg. "Kanäle wieder aufzumachen" - das sei das Ziel des Bundeskanzlers, sagt Prof. Dr. May-Britt Stumbaum, die Direktorin des Spear-Instituts, einer sicherheitspolitischen Denkfabrik, und assoziierte Professorin an der Bundeswehr-Universität München. Allerdings: Auf Augenhöhe sehe sich China nur mit den USA, Russland sei für Peking "nützlich". Wichtig für Deutschland sei, "zu Hause" stark zu werden und den eigenen Mittelstand zu schützen - insbesondere vor chinesischer Technologie- und Wirtschaftsspionage, so Stumbaum, die auch Reserve-Offizierin der Luftwaffe ist. Sie berichtet im Gespräch mit Anna Engelke von Chinas kognitiver Kriegsführung. Dabei geht es darum, die Wahrnehmung des Gegners zu verändern. Dafür nutze China auch TikTok: Durch kurze Videos solle die Konzentrationsfähigkeit der User:innen untergraben werden: "Innerhalb Chinas sind diese Reels wesentlich länger. Außerhalb Chinas sind diese Reels wesentlich kürzer und das hat die Auswirkung, dass sie die Konzentrationsfähigkeit systematisch untergraben. Und natürlich ist das Zentrum einer Demokratie, dass ich mich konzentrieren kann, um mich mit den Informationen auseinanderzusetzen", so die Sicherheits-Expertin. China habe sehr viel in KI und Big Data investiert: "Dass man damit eben Inhalte für soziale Medien kreieren kann und die stimulieren eben diese Polarisierung in der Gesellschaft", sagt Stumbaum.Außerdem berichten Stefan Niemann und Kai Küstner von der aktuellen Lage in der Ukraine: Diese konnte den dritten erfolgreichen Treffer ihres Marschflugkörpers "Flamingo" gegen russische Ziele verzeichnen. Nach Erkenntnissen des US-Thinktanks Institute for the Study of War hat Russland nach zweijähriger Invasion die ostukrainische Stadt Pokrowsk eingenommen. Unterdessen hat der Haushaltausschuss des Bundestages grünes Licht für Kamikazedrohnen gegeben.Lob und Kritik, alles bitte per Mail an streitkraefte@ndr.de Aktueller Lagebericht des Institute for the Study of War (ISW), u.a. zur russischen Eroberung Pokrowks: https://understandingwar.org/research/russia-ukraine/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-february-26-2026/ Interview mit Prof. Dr. May-Britt Stumbaum: https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/info/audio-429720.html Alle Folgen von “Streitkräfte und Strategien”: https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/info/podcast2998.html Podcast-Tipp: “Ready for Liftoff!

In this episode, Brock Johnson breaks down how one creator beat the Instagram algorithm and gained 39,000 followers in just 90 days. He walks through the exact posting strategy that was used, including high-frequency posting, repeatable content formats, and how consistency played a larger role than tactics like trial Reels or trends. Brock will cover how posting up to 12 times per day was structured, how content was upcycled without a team, and why this system led to a major increase in reach and engagement. This episode focuses on the mechanics behind the growth, the posting cadence, and the lessons creators can apply if they want to grow faster on Instagram in 2026. Watch On YouTube

In this episode of the Successful Stylist Academy Podcast, Ambrosia Carey shares key insights from a recent conversation with the Meta and the Instagram team about what is actually working on Instagram right now. This episode breaks down practical social media strategies specifically for hairstylists and salon owners who want to grow their audience, attract better clients, and create content that performs consistently without burnout. Ambrosia discusses the shift from hashtags to keywords, how consistency trains the algorithm, and why Reels and Stories serve very different purposes in your content strategy. She also explains how engagement velocity impacts reach, why trial reels are an underrated feature, and how using Instagram's native tools can improve performance. This episode is designed for hairstylists and salon owners who want clear, realistic guidance on building a sustainable Instagram presence while staying authentic to their voice and brand. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by social media or unsure what actually matters anymore, this conversation will help simplify your approach and give you a strategic path forward. Join the SSA LAB Membership now! https://small-kiwi-98108.myflodesk.com/gnfbcgfrjq Get 2 months of GlossGenius Gold or Platnium for FREE use code SUCCESSFUL Key Takeaways 1. Instagram is shifting toward prioritizing keywords over hashtags, which means hairstylists and salon owners should clearly describe their services and specialties in captions so the algorithm understands who to show their content to. 2. Consistency in posting helps train the Instagram algorithm to recognize your niche and audience, and a predictable posting rhythm often performs better than sporadic bursts of content. 3. Reels are essential for discoverability and attracting new clients, while Stories are better suited for nurturing relationships with the audience you already have. 4. Engagement velocity plays an important role in reach, and responding quickly to comments signals to the algorithm that your content is creating meaningful conversations. 5. Trial reels provide a valuable opportunity to test new content ideas and formats before sharing them with your full audience. 6. Using Instagram's native tools such as text overlays, captions, audio, and in-app editing features can improve both content quality and overall reach. 7. Carousel posts remain a powerful format because they retain viewer attention longer and allow stylists to communicate educational and high-value content more clearly. 8. Content performs best when it answers real questions and solves real problems for your audience rather than simply following trends. 9. Authenticity and clarity in messaging are more effective long-term strategies than chasing viral trends that do not align with your brand. 10. Regularly reviewing your content performance allows hairstylists and salon owners to refine their social media strategy and make better decisions about what to create next. Show Notes In this episode Ambrosia shares insights from a direct conversation with the Meta and Instagram team about how the platform is evolving and what hairstylists need to understand in order to stay relevant and visible. Listeners will learn why Instagram is becoming more keyword-driven, how posting consistency influences reach, and how stylists can simplify their content strategy without feeling overwhelmed. This conversation also covers the difference between Reels and Stories, the role of engagement and response time, and how using Instagram's built-in tools can improve results. This episode is especially helpful for hairstylists and salon owners who want to build a stronger online presence, attract ideal clients, and grow their business through intentional content creation.

Click here for b-sides of interviews Junction 18 toured relentlessly across the U.S. and Canada alongside bands like New Found Glory, Midtown, Hot Rod Circuit, and Simple Plan, carving out a loyal following in the early 2000s scene. After appearing on the Vans Warped Tour, they signed with Fearless Records and released their debut album This Vicious Cycle in 2000, followed by additional releases including Heroes from the Future and a split with Over It. Although plans for a new album in 2005 were ultimately scrapped, their influence lingered, leading to reunions including a brief set in 2015. In 2025, the band resurfaced with the first-ever vinyl release of This Vicious Cycle and reunited for a mini-tour across Boston, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York, closing the loop on a legacy that refused to stay buried.

Welcome back to The Weekly Scroll! This week we're talking about Instagram's BIGGEST 2026 Update: Mini-Drama Reels & Anonymous Stories. Instagram is officially leaning into mini-drama storytelling, prioritizing emotional hooks, serialized Reels, and longer watch times over trend-only content. If you've been wondering why educational posts aren't hitting the same, this shift toward storytelling explains everything. We're also unpacking Instagram's anonymous Story viewing test and what it means for engagement, replies, and measuring performance in 2026. If passive viewers increase, conversations will matter more than ever. Other major updates include: • Threads now easier to schedule • TikTok's new Feed rollout in the U.S. • The upcoming AI-generated content deadline • What these changes mean for creators, personal brands, and local businesses This episode is packed with practical strategy, not just news.
