On this episode of Talking Guitars on JohnnyBeaneTV, we opened with a heartfelt tribute to the legendary Steve Cropper, whose family announced his passing today. I share the story of meeting him nearly 30 years ago at the guitar shop I worked at—an unforgettable moment with a true icon. Legendary guitarist Steve Cropper — the soulful force behind Booker T. & the MG's, Otis Redding, and the Blues Brothers — has passed away at the age of 84. His son Cameron confirmed the news to Variety on Wednesday. Cropper's influence on Memphis soul is immeasurable. As a guitarist, producer, songwriter, and engineer at Stax Records, he shaped the sound of an era. His tight, tasteful, unmistakable guitar work powered Booker T. & the MG's, while also elevating recordings by Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Sam & Dave, Rufus and Carla Thomas, Eddie Floyd, and more. In 1996, Mojo magazine ranked him the second-greatest guitarist of all time, just behind Jimi Hendrix, praising his metronomic timing, razor-sharp riffs, and perfectly placed licks — always serving the song, never overstaying their welcome. As a songwriter, Cropper co-wrote classics like “Green Onions,” “Time Is Tight,” and “Soul-Limbo,” along with timeless R&B hits including Otis Redding's “(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay”, Wilson Pickett's “In the Midnight Hour” and “634-5789,” and Eddie Floyd's “Knock On Wood.” After leaving Stax in 1970, he continued making history. Booker T. & the MG's reunited into the '90s, backing icons like Bob Dylan, John Fogerty, Neil Young, and Levon Helm. Cropper also became widely known to new generations as the guitarist for The Blues Brothers, appearing on their platinum records and in both films. In 1992, Steve Cropper was rightfully inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Booker T. & the MG's. Then it's off to the workbench! I swap out the strap pins on my TEASE Telecaster, tighten up some screws on a Squier Tele, and Ron jumps in to show off some killer 3D-printed guitar goodies he's been crafting. And somehow… we wrap the night talking about MASSIVE burgers—PermanI Brothers, local burger joints, and the monster creations Ron hunts down. Guess we were starving! Rock, mods, memories, and monster burgers—classic JohnnyBeaneTV energy.

A town is mourning the death of a much-loved former pub landlord - described by many as a “true legend”.Father-of-four Archie Dryden died just one week after being diagnosed with motor neurone disease. Also in today's podcast, a Tunbridge Wells dad has spoken openly about his experience of psychosis following a collapse in his mental health.Jamie Walker says things spiralled after the loss of his business, breakdown of his marriage, a bereavement, ADHD diagnosis and battle with alcoholism.A Kent campaigner is urging us to call out mysogyny, sexist language and cat calling as 16 days of action gets underway to tackle violence against women and girls.It's White Ribbon Day and ambassador Martin Mathews is the focus of a national portrait series to raise awareness.Fed-up villagers say it's “appalling” that more than £100,000 has been spent on bridge repairs for damage they believe is entirely preventable through a reduced speed limit or traffic calming measures.You can hear from pub owner Jonathan Woodbridge who says he's lost £5,000 a week in trade. And we've spoken to a young girl from Kent who you can catch on the big screen in Wicked: For Good. 10-year-old Matilda Williams was chosen out of hundreds of children to appear in the blockbuster and she's told us all about it.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The EF3 tornado that ravaged parts of St. Louis six months ago devastated thousands of homes and businesses — and a dozen buildings in the St. Louis Public Schools district.

STLPR's Hiba Ahmed discusses the impact of the school closures, what the plan to reopen looks like and what the community's response has been in the six months since the tornado.

#657: This week, Paula and Joe dig into a listener's question about ETFs that track the stock trades of U.S. politicians — including the Democratic “NANC” fund and its Republican counterpart “KRUZ.” They explore whether this strategy is smart investing or just expensive entertainment. Then, they shift gears to home ownership headaches. Another listener asks how to control ballooning maintenance costs, and Paula shares her best advice for finding trustworthy contractors, budgeting for repairs, and knowing when DIY doesn't actually save money. Finally, an anonymous caller wonders if starting a small business just for tax breaks makes sense. Paula and Joe explain the IRS rules — and why energy and purpose matter more than deductions. From “fun money” investing to financial planning that actually works, this episode is all about balancing curiosity, caution, and common sense. Key Takeaways Congressional-trade ETFs aren't a shortcut to wealth. They're speculative, lag behind real trades, and carry high costs Home maintenance is predictable — plan for it. Create a repair timeline and build relationships with investor-friendly contractors DIY isn't always cheaper. Factor in time, tools, and opportunity cost Never open a business just for taxes. If it doesn't make a profit or bring joy, it's an energy drain, not a strategy Separate fun money from freedom money. Keep speculation playful, and build wealth with focus and purpose Chapters Note: Timestamps will vary on individual listening devices based on dynamic advertising segments.

Do you ever feel like budgeting is impossible because your income changes from month to month? If you're self-employed, work on commission, or depend on tips, you're not alone. Living on a variable income can feel like riding a financial roller coaster—one month you're doing fine, and the next, you're wondering how to make ends meet.But the good news is that God's Word offers wisdom that applies even in seasons of financial uncertainty. Proverbs 21:5 reminds us:“The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.”No matter how steady—or unpredictable—your income is, a plan is essential.Build Your Budget on What You Know, Not What You HopeMany people make the mistake of budgeting around their best month. Wise stewardship means basing your plan on your lowest or average month, rather than your highest month.Start by reviewing your income over the past 6 to 12 months. Identify your lowest earning month, and use that as your “bare minimum” budget—what it takes to cover essentials like housing, utilities, groceries, transportation, and basic giving.For example, if your income ranges from $3,000 to $6,000, plan your budget around $3,000. When you earn more, that extra income becomes your margin—money you can use to pay down debt, save, or plan ahead for slower seasons.This approach protects you from overcommitting when income drops and helps you live within your means.Create an Income-Holding AccountWhen your income arrives irregularly, timing can be just as stressful as the amount. One simple solution is to use an income-holding account.Here's how it works:Deposit all income into one central account—your “holding tank.”Once a month, transfer your budgeted amount into your regular spending account.This method smooths out your cash flow, allowing you to “pay yourself” a steady income each month. Proverbs 27:23 gives this timeless reminder:“Know well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds.”In today's world, that means knowing where your money is, where it's going, and when it's available.Also, if your income fluctuates, an emergency fund isn't optional—it's essential.Start by saving enough to cover one month's expenses, then aim for three to six months over time. Use “boom” months to grow your buffer before adding new spending. When slower seasons come, you'll be able to keep paying yourself consistently.Differentiate Between Fixed and Flexible ExpensesAnother key to managing a variable income is learning to distinguish between fixed and flexible expenses.Fixed expenses—like rent, insurance, and loan payments—stay the same.Flexible expenses—like dining out, entertainment, or travel—can adjust with your income.During lean months, trim flexible spending. When income increases, you can replenish your savings or increase your giving. Remember, self-control is one of the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23), and that includes how we handle our finances.One of the easiest ways to get off track is through “surprise” expenses that shouldn't be surprises—car repairs, insurance premiums, or property taxes.List all your irregular expenses for the year and divide each by twelve. Set that amount aside monthly in a sinking fund, so when those bills come, you're ready. No scrambling. No stress. Just peace that comes from faithful planning.Trust the Provider, Not the PaycheckEven when your income is unpredictable, God is not. Matthew 6 reminds us that our Heavenly Father knows what we need before we ask. He feeds the birds and clothes the flowers—and He will provide for His children.So whether your income changes weekly or seasonally, rest in this truth: stability isn't found in your paycheck—it's found in God's faithful provision.If you're ready to build a flexible, faith-filled budget, the FaithFi app can help.

Once I reach $200,000, I'd like to start investing $10,000 a month in something with greater growth potential, even if it carries a bit more risk. Right now, I'm earning about 4% at the bank. What would be a wise next step for that money?I've just moved into an independent living facility and am in the process of selling my condo, which should close soon. I'll need the proceeds to help cover my living expenses, but I'm wondering—how should I handle tithing on that money?I just wanted to express my gratitude for the way you and your team share wisdom so respectfully and thoughtfully.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1183: Today we're talking about the billion-dollar blaze disrupting Ford's aluminum supply chain, Tekion's confident response to new DMS rival Pinewood.AI, and why the retail world's record CEO shuffle says more about skill sets than burnout. A mid-September fire at Novelis's massive Oswego, N.Y. aluminum plant has shaken the auto supply chain, putting Ford and other OEMs in damage-control mode as crews work nonstop to rebuild the damaged facility.A Sept. 16 fire destroyed 40,000 sq. ft. of the hot mill roof, halting aluminum heating and rolling operations essential to producing body panels for trucks and SUVs.Repairs are underway 24/7, with 1,900 of 2,455 replacement parts already on site.“Teams are working with extreme urgency,” said Novelis spokesperson Lauren Thompson. “Every hour counts in getting back online.”As Pinewood.AI eyes an ambitious U.S. rollout backed by Lithia Motors, Tekion CEO Jay Vijayan says “bring it on,” dismissing the U.K.-based DMS company as no major threat in America's complex dealership software market.Pinewood spun out of Lithia-owned Pendragon and plans a full-scale U.S. push after Lithia transitions to its platform by 2028.The U.S. DMS market is dominated by CDK Global, Reynolds and Reynolds, and Dealertrack, with Tekion gaining momentum.Vijayan said the U.S. market's size and regulatory complexity give Tekion an edge: “I don't have even the slightest concern.”With 1,500 full DMS clients and 4,000 using Tekion software, Vijayan said profitability is expected by 2026, emphasizing “strong financial economics and long-term growth.”A record wave of CEO exits is reshaping what success looks like at the top of retail. As technology, AI, and shifting consumer behavior redefine the landscape, companies are looking for leaders who can adapt fast and think across multiple disciplines.Retail CEO departures are up 116% year-over-year, with 64% unplanned, according to Russell Reynolds Associates.Leadership experts say modern executives must blend tech fluency, marketing insight, and operational skill to stay competitive.Craig Rowley, senior client partner at Korn Ferry, noted that while skills like sourcing and merchandising “don't necessarily go away,” they're no longer the foundation of what retailers seek in a CEO.Join 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/
