In this episode, Tim and Armand dive deep into the world of watch collecting, kicking things off with a spirited discussion on vintage timepieces. What truly qualifies as "vintage"? And where does the term "neo-vintage" come from, anyway? From there, the conversation shifts to gold watches — including some personal favorites — and how they stack up against their two-tone counterparts. To wrap things up, they explore which watches might be overdue for a design refresh, whether in looks, mechanics, or both.

What separates truly exceptional leaders from the rest? According to Kurt Strovink, it's not just strategy, execution, or decision-making—it's the ability to lead from within. As a senior partner at McKinsey & Company and a global advisor to CEOs, Kurt has spent decades studying the patterns of the most successful executives. In his latest book, The Journey of Leadership: How CEOs Learn to Lead from the Inside Out, he reveals what the best leaders do differently and why self-awareness is at the core of transformative leadership.In this insightful conversation, Kurt unpacks the critical contradictions every CEO must navigate—balancing short-term and long-term priorities, managing gut instincts with data-driven analysis, and fostering trust while making tough calls. He also explores the human-centric aspects of leadership, showing why the most effective CEOs focus not just on financial performance but on culture, dissent, and psychological safety to drive long-term success.Mahan Tavakoli and Kurt also discuss practical frameworks for leadership development, including how CEOs can create cultures that encourage truth-telling, manage their energy instead of just their time, and make bold decisions that define their legacies. Drawing on insights from 500+ CEO forums and top leaders worldwide, Kurt shares the strategies that help executives avoid common pitfalls and unlock their full leadership potential.Actionable Takeaways from This EpisodeYou'll learn why leading others starts with leading yourself—and how the best CEOs develop self-awareness as a core leadership skill.Hear how top leaders institutionalize truth-telling and dissent within their organizations to avoid blind spots and drive better decision-making.Find out why managing energy is just as important as managing time—and how CEOs structure their schedules for peak performance.Discover how to make bold, differentiating moves early in your leadership tenure to set the tone for lasting impact.Learn why the most effective CEOs challenge their own organizations like an activist investor, forcing teams to rethink assumptions and drive transformation.Explore the power of leadership storytelling—how CEOs use analogies and language to shape culture and inspire action.Uncover strategies for navigating the inevitable contradictions of leadership—short-term vs. long-term, data vs. intuition, and control vs. delegation.Hear how great CEOs build leadership factories, ensuring a pipeline of strong leaders while avoiding the distractions of succession politics.Understand why the best leaders don't just execute strategy—they create the conditions for others to thrive and innovate.Find out when it's time to step away and transition leadership—and how great CEOs prepare for what's next.Connect with Kurt StrovinkKurt Strovink LinkedIn Kurt Strovink McKinsey & Company The Journey of Leadership: How CEOs Learn to Lead from the Inside Out Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

It's been 13 years since I've done a grape miniseries on Tempranillo, so it was high time! This grape has come a long way in a decade +, proving that it has more nuance, terroir driven finesse, and versatility than it gets credit for.    Tempranillo is now the third most widely planted wine grape in the world, at 231,000 ha/570,000 acres. It is not widely grown outside of Spain but there are growers in 17 countries making a go of it. That said, 88% of Tempranillo's vineyard area is in Spain and most of it is in the northern central parts, with Rioja and Ribera del Duero as the shining stars.                                                                         Photo: Getty Images via Canva   In this show, I go over the DNA and history of the grape and I discuss the many, many names it has. I talk about how it reacts to terroir and its behavior in the vineyard, and why it is so uniquely suited to the special areas in Spain where it thrives. I talk about winemaking and its effect on the grape and then I dive into the aging criteria of Spain (Generico, Crianza, Reserva, Gran Reserva) before going over the specific regions in Spain, Portugal, and the New World in which this grape does amazing things.   This is one of the most important grapes in the world, and the mini-series is packed with info! Enjoy and go try some different wines, you will be surprised at how different they are based on all the factors I mention in the show. You can test yourself to see if you can figure out if it's the land or the hand of man that has an effect!   Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon. Become a member today! www.patreon.com/winefornormalpeople _______________________________________________________________   Check out my exclusive sponsor, Wine Access.  They have an amazing selection -- once you get hooked on their wines, they will be your go-to!

Das Drucken gefälschter Banknoten ist illegal. Das Schaffen privaten Geldes ist es jedoch nicht. Weit über 90 Prozent des von uns genutzten Geldes wurde von den Privatbanken geschaffen. Es stellt sich die Frage, ob das so weitergehen soll. Die Öffentlichkeit betrachtet das Geld der Banken als elektronisches Bargeld und damit als eine sichere Kaufkraftquelle. Dabei stehen auf der einen Seite der Bankbilanzen riskante Vermögenswerte und auf der anderen Seite Verbindlichkeiten, die die Öffentlichkeit für sicher hält. Deshalb fungieren Zentralbanken als Kreditgeber der letzten Instanz. Außerdem bieten Regierungen Einlagensicherungen und Kapitalspritzen. Das Bankwesen ist zwar aus diesem Grund auch stark reguliert, dennoch wirken Kreditzyklen nach wie vor enorm destabilisierend.Könnte eine Umstellung auf ein sogenanntes Vollgeldsystem das Finanzwesen stabiler machen? Das diskutierte Daniel Stelter mit Prof. Dr. Joseph Huber in Folge 106 “Geldsystem: Verschuldung und Finanzkrisen erfordern Umdenken”. Angesichts der aktuellen Schuldensituation ist es Zeit für ein bto REFRESH.HörerserviceErläuterung der Bundesbank zur Geldschöpfung: https://is.gd/NiPzA0 Erläuterung der Bank of England zur Geldschöpfung: https://is.gd/sgytX6 Kommentar von Martin Wolf in der Financial Times (kostenpflichtig): https://is.gd/TCCyAw beyond the obviousNeue Analysen, Kommentare und Einschätzungen zur Wirtschafts- und Finanzlage finden Sie unter www.think-bto.com.NewsletterDen monatlichen bto-Newsletter abonnieren Sie hier.RedaktionskontaktWir freuen uns über Ihre Meinungen, Anregungen und Kritik unter podcast@think-bto.com.Handelsblatt – Ein exklusives Angebot für alle „bto – beyond the obvious – featured by Handelsblatt“-Hörer*innen: Testen Sie Handelsblatt Premium 4 Wochen lang für 1 Euro und bleiben Sie zur aktuellen Wirtschafts- und Finanzlage informiert.

In this episode of the AdTechGod pod, host AdTechGod speaks with Kelly Metz, Chief Investment Officer at Spark Foundry. They discuss Kelly's career journey through the advertising and media landscape, the importance of relationships in the industry, and the diverse clientele at Spark Foundry. Kelly shares insights on the evolving role of a CIO, the impact of AI on client expectations, and the shift towards connected TV in media strategies. The conversation also touches on balancing personal and professional life in the fast-paced advertising world. Takeaways Kelly emphasizes the importance of building relationships in the advertising industry. She believes that media is inherently fun and constantly evolving. Kelly's role as a CIO involves navigating both client and media partner relationships. Understanding technology is essential for effective media investment. Clients often expect immediate efficiency from AI, which is a misconception. The shift to connected TV has changed how brands approach media strategies. Kelly advocates for a deeper understanding of audience insights for better outcomes. She highlights the need for simplicity in navigating complex media ecosystems. Balancing work and personal life is crucial for long-term happiness in the industry. Kelly enjoys activities like going to the beach and playing pickleball to unwind.

Kait covers the remedies phase of Google's adtech antitrust trial, Google's integration of Gemini into Chrome, and Integral Ad Science's acquisition by private equity firm Novacap. The discussion highlights how legal battles, AI rollouts, and consolidation are reshaping digital advertising. Google entered the remedies phase of its adtech antitrust trial, with the DOJ pushing for structural remedies like divesting AdX and DFP, while Google argues for behavioral fixes such as more transparent auction rules. Judge Brinkema must weigh whether forced divestitures would dismantle Google's monopoly or risk destabilizing the broader display ad ecosystem. Google integrated its AI assistant Gemini into Chrome, starting on desktop with features like page summaries, live chat, and cross-product task coordination across Maps, YouTube, and Calendar. The move follows the search antitrust trial outcome, where Google avoided severe penalties such as being forced to divest Chrome, maintaining its ecosystem dominance strategy. Integral Ad Science will be acquired by Novacap for $1.9 billion, taking the company private to accelerate AI-driven product innovation and strengthen its role in ad verification amid growing private equity investment in adtech.

Back in June, Chase refreshed its personal Sapphire Reserve card and introduced the Chase Sapphire Reserve Business card, complete with highest ever annual fees for rewards cards. Not to be outdone, American Express quickly followed with its own updates to the personal and business Platinum Cards. Now that the details are here, it's time to look at what's changed and what it means for cardholders. In this episode, I'm joined by Kelly, the Points and Miles Doc to walk through the Amex Platinum cards refresh. We cover the higher annual fees, the new credits, and why the personal Platinum still struggles with bonus categories. You'll also hear our reactions to the removal of the 35% rebate on the business Platinum, the addition of a $600 hotel credit, and the new 2X earning on large purchases over $5,000. We share our thoughts on whether the $895 annual fee on the personal Platinum makes sense, how the new benefits are user-dependent, and why the business Platinum refresh feels more useful for high spenders.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1156: Ford's Jim Farley warns America about jobs and trades in the AI era. Subaru reveals its first dealership redesign in nearly two decades. And the once-hyped “vibe coding” boom may already be running out of steam.Ford CEO Jim Farley says America's economy is at a crossroads. As AI threatens to eliminate millions of office jobs, he warns the U.S. is overlooking the “essential economy” of trades and manufacturing that keep the country running.Farley predicts up to 50% of white-collar jobs could vanish within a decade due to AI.Entry-level positions like clerical work and coding are especially at risk, shrinking career pathways for young professionals.By contrast, blue-collar fields face massive shortages—600,000 factory workers and nearly 500,000 construction workers are already needed.Farley highlights Germany's strong apprenticeship programs, saying the U.S. overemphasis on four-year degrees leaves trade careers underfunded and undervalued.“There's more than one way to the American Dream,” Farley said.Subaru is rolling out a new dealership design for the first time since 2007. Called the Connection Hub, the redesign mixes nature themes with high-tech touches, aiming to give customers an immersive brand experience.Exterior upgrades include a “grand, park-like pavilion” with star-shaped columns and a central walkway leading to inventory.Inside, “lifestyle vehicle vignettes” display cars in real-world scenarios, complete with accessories and digital storytelling.Outdoor areas will double as lounges, play spaces, or even dog parks to tie into Subaru's community-focused image.Dealers have voiced mixed reactions—90 retailers have said they're in, while others worry about costs amid slowing sales and rising interest rates.“This is more than a design update — it transforms our retailers' facilities into welcoming hubs,” said Subaru retail VP Tim Stallings.The vibe coding craze might be losing momentum. Barclays analysts say traffic to AI-powered app and site builders—once hyped as the future of no-code—has slumped hard after peaking earlier this year.Lovable, which hit $100M ARR in June, has seen visits fall 40%, Vercel's v0 plunged 64% and Bolt.new dropped 27%.Analysts warn many of these gains came from month-to-month subscribers, making revenue growth less durable than it looked during the hype cycle.Heavy “inference whale” users earlier strained business models, forcing startups to raise prices, which may have accelerated the slowdown.“The churn rate for everyone is really high,” said Bolt.new CEO Eric Simons. “You have to build a retentive business.”0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier0:37 The History of The Jacket Paul is Wearing Today2:01 Upcoming ASOTU Edge Webinar with Uber for Business2:30 Jim Farley On AI's WJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Episode 73: "BECOMING Refreshed: Your Invitation to Deeper Waters with Amy Allgood" Episode Description Are you feeling weary from the constant pace and pull of life? In this powerful episode, host Cherisse Hixson sits down with mentor, coach, and entrepreneur Amy Allgood to explore what it means to move from spiritual "shallow waters" into the deeper, more abundant life God has for us. Amy shares her journey from being a "selfish Christian" focused on what God could do for her, to discovering the transformative power of asking "What can I do for You, God?" This conversation is a gentle invitation for women who are ready to step beyond surface-level faith into authentic spiritual refreshment, rest, and renewal in Jesus. Meet Amy Allgood Amy is a sought-after speaker, mentor, and entrepreneur who has addressed audiences of over 12,000 women.

When she's not mentoring women, you'll find her enjoying good food with friends, "SPA-ING" (her favorite hobby), or traveling to one of the 15+ countries she's visited. Key Takeaways & Timestamps Moving from Head to Heart (17:29) The transformative power of fasting as a spiritual discipline Amy shares miraculous stories from her community's fasting experiences How to fast as a beginner: giving up something you love to gain closeness with God From Shallow to Deep Waters (09:07) Signs you might be living in the "shallow end" spiritually The difference between checking spiritual boxes vs. truly knowing God Moving from "What can You do for me?" to "What can I do for You?" The Martha vs. Mary Balance (12:46) Why women leaders often struggle with the "doing" vs. "being" tension Understanding that if it's not God's calling, there will be no eternal fruit Breaking free from society's "busy badge of honor" mentality Bold Obedience and Sabbath Rest (28:30) Amy's conversation with her Olympic-hopeful daughter about resting on the seventh day Why God's commands aren't suggestions but pathways to blessing The courage required to please God rather than people Standing in the Gap (30:45) God's call for bold believers in this season Personal stories of stepping into God's assignments The blessing of being someone God can count on Scripture Themes Explored Mary and Martha - The balance between doing and being with Jesus Sabbath Rest - God's design for restoration and renewal Standing in the Gap - Being available for God's assignments The Potter and Clay - Surrendering to God's shaping in our lives Practical Application Three Ways to Move Deeper This Week: Try Fasting - Give up something you love (like sugar or social media) to focus on drawing closer to God Practice Listening Prayer - Instead of bringing God your list, sit quietly and ask "What do You want to show me today?"

What would change if you shifted from asking "God, what can You do for me?" to "God, what can I do for You?" Where is God calling you to bold obedience in this season? How can you create more space for listening prayer in your daily rhythm? Quote to Ponder "Be around people who are going to celebrate you and not tolerate you. Early in life we try to please people, we try to impress people, and it's exhausting and it's a waste of time and energy." - Amy Allgood Prayer Father, thank You for pursuing us even when we're content to stay in shallow waters. Give us courage to go deeper with You, to listen more than we speak, and to step boldly into the assignments You have for us.

bto#325 REFRESH – Zumeist schauen die Finanzminister in Deutschland nur auf die Einnahmen und Ausgaben eines Jahres, aber sie erstellen keine ordentliche Bilanz. Angesichts überbordender Schulden und der Situation des Staatshaushalts ist es aber höchste Zeit, dass man den Zuwachs an Verbindlichkeiten durch Leistungszusagen und den Verzehr an Vermögen durch unzureichende (Re-)Investitionen offen ausweist, um zu besseren Entscheidungen zu kommen. Hätte der Bund dieses Doppik genannte Verfahren, die doppelte Buchführung, in den letzten 20 Jahren genutzt, dürften Sozialversicherungen und Infrastruktur heute in einem besseren Zustand sein. Stattdessen werden immer neue Schulden als Sondervermögen getarnt und die dringend nötige, aber nur mit tiefgreifenden und unbequemen Reformen umsetzbare Haushaltssanierung wird immer weiter verschoben. Worum es bei der doppelten Buchführung geht und warum auch der Staat wie ein Unternehmen bilanzieren sollte, hat Daniel Stelter bereits in einem der ganz frühen bto-Podcasts – Episode 31 – erklärt.

This week the Dating Detectives welcome Dominique, whose “movie-perfect” meet-cute with a quiet coworker spirals into a chilling case study in coercive control. After love-bombing, and a whirlwind Halloween wedding, a dream Smoky Mountains honeymoon gives way to explosive rage, religiously justified domination, isolation from friends, terrifying reckless driving, stalking, and paranoid delusions. Dominique walks us through the pink flags she ignored, the gaslighting that made her second-guess reality, and the careful plan she used to reclaim her home after his arrest.

 The 2025 Feeling Good Podcast Survey Featuring Sevde Kalidiroglu, Director of Marketing, Feeling Great app This is the third survey of our podcast fans since the first podcast was broadcast on October 27, 2016, and the most recent was roughly five years ago. Our awesome Director Marketing at the Feeling Great app conducted the survey and prepared the report which you can review if you CLICK HERE Essentially, we wanted to know a little bit about who you are and why you listen, and what you like the most, and least, and what kinds of changes you'd like to see. 183 of you graciously completed the survey. Thanks! We discussed many of the findings on the podcast, and you can click the link above for the full report, but here are just a few highlights: Roughly 1/4 of you are mental health professionals, and 3/4 are general public. Men and women were represented equally. 60% of you are from the US, and 40% of you are international listeners. The age range is heavily tilted toward the older generation, with 66% of you above 50 years of age, and not a single podcast fan less than 20 years old! And why do you listen? Nearly 90% of you are listening to improve your emotional well-being. This was great to hear, and consistent with the many emails I receive describing the help so many of you have gotten from the podcast. In fact, one recent podcast fan fired their therapist due to lack of progress, having made much more progress from listening to the podcast. Many of you listen in order to learn TEAM CBT techniques, including therapists who want to improve their clinical skills as well as individuals who want to learn techniques they can use in their daily lives. Other reasons for listening include: Improve my own emotional well-being 87.1% Learn therapy techniques 57.9% Learn about mental health topics 53.4% Support friends/family 49.4% Entertainment 20.2%“ One respondent wrote: "The podcast helps me apply tools to real-life problems that day—whether loneliness, meaning, or mood swings.” If you click on the survey, you'll find a plethora of interesting findings, clearly presented. Rhonda and I are grateful to you, Sevde, for compiling this information, and we are all very grateful to you, our loyal fans, for sticking with us all these years! We will try hard to be mindful of the take-home messages at the end, which included: Key Recommendations 1. Keep Live Therapy and How-To episodes front and center 2. Reduce episode length & polish editing 3. Bridge podcast and app more clearly (especially in the U.S.) 4. Refresh branding and improve accessibility 5. Add diversity in guest speakers and clinical styles 6. Prioritize topics like perfectionism, trauma, resistance, and self-defeating beliefs 7. Keep posting webinar recordings as podcast episodes Thanks for listening today! Sevde, Rhonda, and David

Let's be honest—there are seasons when prayer feels like talking to the ceiling. The words feel hollow, the passion isn't there, and your heart wonders if God is even listening. Every believer walks through dry seasons in prayer. But here's the truth: dryness doesn't mean distance. Silence doesn't mean absence. God is closer than you feel, and those dry stretches often become the proving ground of your faith.Our springboard for today's discussion is:“Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.” — Jeremiah 33:3 (ESV)Prayer isn't always fireworks. Sometimes it's discipline. Sometimes it's pressing through when every emotion screams, “Give up.” But understand this: the silence of God is not rejection—it's invitation.Dry seasons expose whether your relationship with God is built on feelings or faith. If prayer is only sustained by emotion, you'll quit the moment the well feels empty. But when prayer is anchored in truth—when you know that God has promised to hear—you'll keep showing up even when the emotions are gone.Think of it like a marriage: the strongest bonds aren't built in the honeymoon moments but in the quiet, faithful, ordinary days. The same is true in your walk with God. Faithful prayer in dry seasons builds a depth of intimacy that passion alone cannot produce.And remember, the Word of God is your well. When your prayers feel dry, let Scripture fuel your dialogue. Pray the Psalms. Declare God's promises. Let His Word become the language that carries you through the desert until the rivers of His presence flow again.Dry seasons don't last forever. But the faith you build in them will.Question of the Day:When prayer feels dry, do you lean into faith—or do you give up too soon?Mini Call to Action:Today, take 10 minutes to pray through one Psalm—line by line. Don't rush. Don't force emotion. Just let God's Word guide your prayer until you sense His nearness again.Prayer:Father, thank You for never leaving me—even when I can't feel You. Teach me to press in through the dry seasons, to anchor my prayers in Your promises, and to trust that You are always listening. Refresh my spirit and renew my passion for prayer.

This week, join us as we revisit our episode on the Made Whole Doctrine for a refresher! Original Air Date: May 28, 2021. The Made Whole Doctrine protects an insured's right to recovery before recovery is collected by its insurer.   But what if the tortfeasor does not have enough insurance to cover the loss? Is the insured entitled to recovery for pain and suffering? And the ultimate question, when is the insured considered fully compensated for the loss? Being “made whole” varies even in those states that do apply the Made Whole Doctrine. Listen as Steve and Rebecca lead you through several states' application of the doctrine, from those that require a legal determination that the insured has been made whole before any subrogation recovery, to those that parse out the doctrine based on damage types, to those that reject it entirely.

Joe Hirsch the CEO of Swivel and former CEO of SpringServe, shares his journey through the ad tech industry, discussing his experiences with affiliate marketing, ad serving, and the evolution of ad operations. He emphasizes the importance of operational efficiency and the role of AI in optimizing ad campaigns, while also addressing the future of AdOps and the integration of technology in the advertising space. Takeaways Joe Hirsch has a long history in ad tech, starting from affiliate marketing. He co-founded multiple companies, including Spring Serve, which was acquired by Magnite. Swivel aims to automate repetitive tasks in ad operations to improve efficiency. The ad server business model requires scaling operations without increasing labor costs. Swivel integrates AI to replicate and scale human decision-making in ad operations. AI is not meant to replace humans but to augment their capabilities. The future of AdOps will see agents as primary users of ad platforms. Precision in ad operations is crucial to avoid costly mistakes. AdOps professionals should embrace AI technologies to enhance their skills. The ad tech industry is evolving rapidly, with AI playing a significant role. Chapters 00:00Introduction to Joe Hirsch and His Journey 04:48Transitioning from Spring Serve to Swivel 10:58Understanding Swivel's Operational Efficiency 16:07The Future of AdOps and AI Integration The Refresh News: September 15:Google's AdTech Filing, Magnite's AI Bet, and YouTube's NFL Debut This episode of The Refresh covers three major stories shaping advertising this week: Google's eyebrow-raising statements in its AdTech antitrust remedies filing, Magnite's acquisition of creative production platform Streamer AI, and YouTube's first-ever exclusive NFL broadcast. Host Kate breaks down the implications of each development for advertisers, publishers, and platforms in the evolving digital ecosystem. Google's court filing revealed open web display ads purchased through AdWords dropped to 11% in January 2025, down from 40% in 2019, sparking concerns over the open web's decline. Google defended itself by attributing ad spend shifts to CTV and retail media, while critics highlighted its dominance in directing referral traffic through AI-driven search changes. Magnite announced the acquisition of Streamer AI to help small and mid-sized businesses overcome creative production hurdles in connected TV advertising. The CTV market is expanding rapidly, with Nielsen reporting 75% of TV viewing is ad-supported and eMarketer projecting $33B in CTV ad spend for 2025, though measurement challenges remain. YouTube's first free exclusive NFL broadcast drew 17.3M viewers globally, surpassing Amazon's 2024 averages but raising questions about sustaining viewership once games move behind a paywall.

This week's show is on South Africa, a much more historic region than many realize, it has been making wine for more than 350 years. Although considered a 'New World' wine region, winemaking and ethos are often more oriented towards the Old World. Its style often straddles the line between New and Old World, offering fruit-driven wines with minerality, earthiness, restraint, and higher acidity.     In this show, I talk about the unique conditions of this country, located between latitudes 27° and 34° south. I discuss the lengthy winemaking history,  and how the Mediterranean climate, old soils, and a unique topography create world class wines of mainly Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinotage, and Merlot.   Photo: South African Winelands/Stellenbosch.

Google escaped the harshest remedies in its long-running search antitrust trial, with the court declining to force a Chrome or Android spinoff or ban payments to partners like Apple and Samsung. Meanwhile, media buyers are taking a closer look at Publicis-owned Epsilon SSP, with some blocking it entirely due to transparency concerns. And in the AI space, Perplexity has pulled back on its ad experiments, raising bigger questions about how generative search can—or should—be monetized. Judge Mehta's ruling spared Google from structural breakups or bans on partner payments, requiring only limited data sharing and oversight for six years. Generative AI competition from OpenAI, Microsoft, Meta, and Perplexity influenced the court's belief that search competition is evolving without harsher remedies. Google maintains dominance with 65–70% of global browser share and around 40% of ad spend coming from paid search. Media buyers discovered they were funneling spend through Publicis-owned Epsilon SSP via reselling, sparking data leakage and conflict-of-interest concerns. Perplexity scaled back its ads after advertiser pushback, highlighting the lack of clear value, measurement, and final product structure in AI-driven ad formats. Learn more about your ad choices.

the holiday season has you dreaming of more blog income with less hustle, you're not alone. Q4 is the busiest (and most profitable) time of year for content creators—but it can also be the most overwhelming. In this week's episode of the podcast, I'm walking you through three smart, simple ways you can start making passive income from your blog right now—so you can spend more time with your family and less time stressing about sales. https://creativesonfirepodcast.com/episode212 Each strategy is set-it-and-forget-it, designed to help your blog work for you while you sip hot cocoa and watch Christmas movies. 1. Update and Republish Your Seasonal Blog Posts with Affiliate Links If you already have holiday blog posts on your site, this is the easiest passive win. Here's what to do: Head to your WordPress dashboard and search for posts that include “2024” or are clearly seasonal. Update or add affiliate links where it makes sense (Amazon, LTK, Walmart, etc.). Refresh your intro paragraph and schedule the post to republish this season. Pin the post now so it has time to gain traction on Pinterest. And don't worry—this doesn't have to be a huge job. Just focus on your top 5 to 10 seasonal performers. If you notice a strong traffic post that doesn't yet have affiliate links, now is the perfect time to add them. Want to take it further? Create a new holiday gift guide and publish it now. It can be niche-specific like “Gifts for Teen Girls” or broader like “My Favorite Amazon Finds for the Holidays.” Then remember: pin it now so it's already circulating when people start searching in October and November. 2. Add a Low-Ticket Digital Product to Your Blog Digital products are one of the most underrated sources of passive blog income. Start simple: Create a printable checklist, holiday planner, cookie cookbook, or gift tag bundle. Upload it to Flodesk (or your email platform) and set up a simple opt-in and thank-you page with payment. No fancy funnel needed. Just a link to the product and automatic delivery upon purchase. Design a basic promo graphic and pin it now so it has time to gain reach before the holidays hit full swing. You could start with one seasonal product—or create several (one for fall, one for Black Friday, and one for Christmas). Just keep it simple, useful, and focused on solving a seasonal problem your audience has. 3. Increase Blog Traffic to Boost Ad Revenue Sometimes the most passive money-maker of all is right under your nose—your ad revenue. If you're with an ad network like Mediavine, Raptive, Journey, SHE Media, or Ezoic, then Q4 is when RPMs are at their highest. That means more money per pageview. Here's how to maximize that traffic: Make a list of your top-performing holiday posts. Save the direct links in your Notes app so they're easy to access on the go. Share those posts regularly across your social media (especially in Stories and Facebook). Create new pins or fresh Facebook captions for each post to drive traffic in different ways. Bonus Tip: Use tools like Facebook Fuel to simplify this process. Inside Facebook Fuel, I provide ready-made Amazon collages and high-converting product roundup graphics that can be uploaded to your blog sidebar or embedded within posts to increase both traffic and affiliate conversions. Your Weekly Action Plan To make this totally doable, break the steps into weeks: Week 1: Update and pin your best seasonal posts with fresh affiliate links. Week 2: Create one low-ticket digital product and pin it with a simple promo image. Week 3: Build your traffic plan by organizing your top post links and promoting them weekly. By the time October rolls around, you'll already have the systems in place for your blog to generate income on autopilot through Q4—freeing you up to actually enjoy the holidays. You don't need a complicated strategy to make your blog profitable this season. You just need to take action now. Choose one of the three methods above—affiliate links, digital products, or ad revenue—and take 30 minutes this week to set it in motion. Your future self (and your holiday calendar) will thank you. If this episode inspired you to take action, I'd love to hear what you're implementing first. Send me a DM or tag me in your pin so I can cheer you on. Stay creative and keep planting those income seeds, friend.
