Angela examines the intricacies of training for muscle strength, hypertrophy, and endurance, referencing a key paper by Brad Schoenfeld that outlines effective rep ranges for different fitness goals.  She discusses the importance of neuromuscular adaptation for beginners and suggest starting with bodyweight exercises before progressing to kettlebells and heavier weights, as well as the significance of tailored training programs, especially for women undergoing menopause, advocating for high-intensity interval training and heavier lifting. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: Training Ranges: Hypertrophy is typically achieved with 8 to 12 reps, strength with 1 to 5 reps, and endurance with 15 or more reps. It's important to follow a structured program to maximise results. Neuromuscular Adaptation: Beginners will experience significant improvements through neuromuscular adaptation, which involves learning proper movement patterns. Starting with bodyweight exercises like squats and pushups is effective. Progression: As individuals advance, they should gradually incorporate resistance training, starting with bodyweight exercises, then moving to bands, and eventually to weights like kettlebells for functional movements. Training for Life: Emphasis should be placed on training that prepares individuals for everyday activities, such as lifting children or carrying luggage, rather than just focusing on traditional weightlifting.

Seven House Democrats broke with much of their party to vote in favor of funding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, helping advance a Department of Homeland Security spending measure despite strong opposition from progressives. Democratic opposition to the bill intensified ahead of the vote, as party leaders signaled resistance to funding the agency amid President Donald Trump's expanded immigration enforcement efforts. The seven Democrats who voted in favor of the funding were Reps. Tom Suozzi of New York, Henry Cuellar of Texas, Don Davis of North Carolina, Laura Gillen of New York, Jared Golden of Maine, Vicente Gonzalez of Texas and Marie Glusenkamp Perez of Washington.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Today's Headlines: Ghislaine Maxwell invoked the Fifth during her House Oversight testimony, but her attorney said she would testify publicly if President Donald Trump grants her a pardon — claiming she could conveniently clear both Trump and Bill Clinton. The White House says a pardon isn't being discussed “at this time,” which is doing a lot of work. Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie were allowed to view the unredacted Epstein files at the DOJ for two hours and said they spotted at least six “likely incriminating” names. They didn't say who, but more lawmakers are expected to review the files soon. In the UK, King Charles said he would support investigations into Prince Andrew, including allegations he shared confidential trade information with Epstein, adding pressure on Prime Minister Keir Starmer as the scandal spreads across Europe. Meanwhile, the US State Department is launching a new program to fund MAGA-aligned think tanks across Europe ahead of America's 250th anniversary, while Israel approved new measures expanding control over parts of the West Bank — in violation of the Oslo Accords — ahead of yet another Netanyahu visit to DC. Back home, Dr. Mehmet Oz urged Americans to get vaccinated for measles amid the largest outbreak in decades, a federal judge allowed Trump to keep $16 billion in Gateway tunnel funding frozen for now, and Trump attacked US Olympic skier Hunter Hess for expressing “mixed emotions” about representing the country — as Lindsey Vonn fractured her shin days after tearing her ACL.

Tribal leaders from across the country are gathered in Washington D.C. this week for the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) 2026 Executive Council Winter Session and State of Indian Nations Address. NCAI Youth Commission Co-Presidents Jonas Kanuhsa (Gila River Indian Community) and Angelina Serna (Oneida Nation and Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians) kicked off Monday morning's assembly by delivering the youth commission speech. Serna says her message to tribal leaders is to recognize the contributions being made by Native youth. “I really talk about tokenism when it comes to Native and really putting youth at the forefront and having youth at these tables, at these conversations, giving youth that opportunity to really learn, and for the adults to be learners and teachers as well, and incorporating language and culture in everything that we do because what we do has spirit, has purpose.” Kanuhsa says his message to attendees is to help find ways for Native youth to get more opportunities, especially for those who live in remote areas. “Opening roles for more Native youth. I think Native youth on rural reservations have a hard time maybe connecting to maybe internships, fellowships, maybe just early on new jobs, entry jobs, because of those location barriers.” The Youth Commission co-presidents also touched on safety concerns when it comes to Native people and recent federal immigration actions across the U.S. They also talked about the commission's work this week on Capitol Hill to advocate for funding, harm reduction, treatment, and recovery models for substance abuse. NCAI President Mark Macarro (Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians), who delivered the State of Indian Nations address, followed the youth commission’s remarks by saying young Native people are an important part of NCAI. “In my time here at NCAI, the youth started to say we have a voice, you know, what we have to say matters, and it matters in this moment. And, you know, we took stock of that and been making strides to have them be more inclusive. They’re right and their take on the world or take on issues in Indian Country is different than ours, and so we need to allow ourselves to hear that. but we also need to create those opportunities for us to mentor them.” NCAI’s winter session continues Tuesday with updates from federal agencies including the departments of justice, transportation, and housing. Leaders will also hear from some members of Congress from New Mexico and Washington state. U.S. Rep. Sharice Davids during a 2022 hearing. (Courtesy C-SPAN) The history and effects of Indian boarding schools would be investigated and documented under legislation re-introduced by U.S. Reps. Tom Cole (Chickasaw/R-OK) and Sharice Davids (Ho-Chunk/D-KS). Rep. Davids is one of the first two Native women elected to Congress, and has long spoken of the boarding school era, including on C-SPAN in 2022. “The policies and assimilation practices of the United States had the sole purpose of culturally assimilating American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian children in residential boarding schools across the country. Children were coerced and compelled to attend boarding schools away from their home. Many children did not return to their families or their communities. Those that did return lost generations' worth of cultural knowledge, stories and traditions, and communities lost their language keepers, cultural practitioners and future leaders.” H.R. 7325 would establish a commission to investigate and report on the histories of more than 500 federally run boarding schools, which operated between 1819 through the 1970s. President Joe Biden formally apologized for the schools in 2024. British forces under fire from the French and Indian forces at Monongahela, when the Braddock expedition failed to take Fort Duquesne. And on this day in 1763, the French-Indian War officially ended. The armies of France and England wrestled for territory in the Americas, with both sides swaying Native tribes to help their efforts. Some, including the Ojibwe and Winnebago, helped the French, while the Iroquois helped England. While the outcome was favorable for the British, the cost of the war compelled England to raise taxes on the 13 colonies, eventually spurring the American Revolution.

In this episode of Sales & Cigars, Walter Crosby sits down with Nick Massaro of Membrane for a candid, no-BS conversation about what actually holds good salespeople back. From early sales foundations and structured training to the mindset traps that quietly derail deals, this episode digs into the space between opening and closing—the part most reps avoid and where deals are truly won or lost. Nick shares his journey into sales, the evolution of his mindset, and the hard-earned realization that being "the most liked rep" is often a sign something went wrong. Together, they unpack the dangers of approval-seeking, why discomfort is part of great selling, and how modern buyers require a different kind of leadership from sales professionals. This is a grounded, honest conversation for salespeople who want to stop getting compliments instead of contracts. Episode Highlights Why "You were the best rep" is often a kiss of death The difference between opening deals and advancing them How early structure shaped Nick's sales foundation The mindset shift required to lead buyers without controlling them Why avoiding money conversations quietly kills deals Selling outcomes vs. selling features—especially in complex software Letting go of approval to ask better questions What great sales and good parenting surprisingly have in common Key Takeaways Being liked doesn't equal being effective The middle of the deal—not the open or close—is where salespeople grow Approval-seeking prevents tough (necessary) conversations Buyers are in control—but salespeople must still lead Discovery isn't about sounding smart; it's about creating clarity Authenticity beats polish every time Process creates freedom, not rigidity Who Should Listen This episode is for: Salespeople who hear "we loved you" more than "we're buying" Reps who love prospecting but struggle with deal momentum Sales leaders coaching mindset, not just activity Anyone selling complex or non-commodity solutions Business owners trying to understand what their sales team is really up against About the Guest Nick Massaro is a sales professional at Membrane with a background spanning insurance, SaaS, and sales-as-a-service environments. Known for his authenticity and curiosity, Nick brings a thoughtful perspective on modern selling—one rooted in structure, accountability, and continuous improvement.

Send a textMost post-frame buyers start on their phones. If your sales flow doesn't, you're already behind. We brought Dan and Norma from Idea Room into the studio to show how a mobile 3D configurator pairs with SmartBuild to capture better leads, price faster, and close more barn, shop, and barndominium projects without adding headcount.We start with the buyer journey: predefined styles that snap a basic shell into a premium farm build or wraparound design in one tap. Clean visuals, fast loads, and simple controls keep users engaged long enough to hit submit. That single click does the heavy lifting—contact info, site ZIP for tax and delivery, notes—and then spins up a SmartBuild job automatically. Your team opens it to find precise materials, cut lists, and assembly drawings aligned to supplier catalogs, trimming errors and waste while turning “rough price?” into a real number in minutes.The integration now runs both ways. Sales View pulls the SmartBuild job total back into Idea Room, and with a manual refresh you can sync new edits after changing doors, leans, or structure. Reps manage leads on mobile with click-to-call and status updates, while one SmartBuild specialist dials in the details for accuracy and margin. Setup is fast—mapping colors, doors, windows, and trusses takes minutes when supplier data matches—and branding the configurator on your site builds your pipeline under your logo.We also preview features for complex use cases: interior and divider walls, mezzanines with stairs and railings, and barndominium layouts that feel less like a gamble and more like a guided path to a buildable plan. If you're running SmartBuild today, this is the turbo your process needs; if you're not, you'll see why dealers and builders are adopting the stack for speed, precision, and a better buyer experience.Ready to see it live? Meet us at the NFBA Trade Expo in Oklahoma City, Feb 25–27, for hands-on demos.

Marc welcomes legal analyst Hans von Spakovsky from Advancing American Freedom to break down the Fifth Circuit's ruling allowing illegal immigrants to be detained without bond — a major win for Trump's immigration agenda. Hans explains that prior administrations ignored the clear letter of the law and that due process for illegal entrants is defined by statute, not the Constitution. They discuss anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis and the legal grounds for arresting them for blocking federal operations. The conversation shifts to the Epstein case, where Hans warns that unredacted DOJ documents viewed by Reps. Massey and Khanna must protect victims' privacy and may not yield new criminal evidence. Marc closes with skepticism toward online conspiracy claims about Epstein still being alive.

A divided House Oversight and Government Reform Committee has voted to advance contempt of Congress resolutions against former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, after a group of Democrats joined Republicans in moving the measures forward. Nine Democrats voted to advance the resolution involving the former president: Reps. Maxwell Frost of Florida, Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois, Summer Lee of Pennsylvania, Stephen Lynch and Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts, Emily Randall of Washington, Lateefah Simon of California, Melanie Stansbury of New Mexico and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan. Rep. Dave Min of California voted "present" on both resolutions, while Rep. Yassamin Ansari of Arizona voted "present" only on the measure targeting the former president.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Most salespeople never lose because they're bad at selling.They lose because they never learn how to scale themselves.If you've ever felt the pressure of carrying everything on your back…If you've built income but not freedom…If you've sold well but felt trapped inside your own success…This episode is for you.In this conversation, Ashton and I break down the real shift that separates high-earning salespeople from real leaders: referrals, systems, and leverage. Not hype. Not scripts. Not motivation. The boring, repeatable stuff that quietly compounds while everyone else burns out.Referrals aren't luck.They're not charisma.They're not something you “hope” happens.They're a system — and most reps never build one.We talk about why the best salespeople stop knocking doors, chasing leads, and grinding endlessly… and instead learn how to turn one sale into many. How to create “second money.” How to get paid again and again from the same effort. How to stop selling solo and start building momentum.This episode pulls back the curtain on:Why most reps never get referrals (and why it's not what you think)The psychology that makes people want to refer youWhy asking matters more than talentHow empathy beats pressure every timeThe subtle difference between influence and manipulationWhy transparency actually increases trust and closes more dealsHow leaders think differently than producersThe moment a salesman has to decide: stay comfortable, or scaleIf you're making money but feel capped…If you're leading people but feel overwhelmed…If you're recruiting but can't keep momentum…This conversation will hit a nerve.Because the truth is:Grinding harder isn't the answer.Selling more hours isn't the answer.Doing everything yourself isn't the answer.Systems are.Referrals are.Leadership is.This isn't just a solar conversation. These principles apply to sales, recruiting, business, and life. If you want to move from operator to owner — from rep to leader — this is the shift you've been missing.Watch this with an open mind.Listen closely.Then ask yourself one question:Are you building income… or are you building something that lasts?Subscribe for more conversations on sales, leadership, referrals, and scale.If this hits, you already know what to do.— Nick

Deals appear “close” on the surface but quietly fall apart because the buyer never made one critical decision: the decision to change now. In this episode, Brandon explains why closing fails when reps treat it like a single ask instead of a structured sequence.He breaks down the three decisions every buyer must make (problem, change, and vendor) and shows why skipping the change decision causes hesitation, delays, and ghosting late in the process. You'll learn how to secure micro-commitments throughout the deal, how to surface the cost of inaction, and why the final close should feel obvious instead of risky.If your deals stall at the finish line even when everything seems aligned, this episode shows you exactly where the sequence is breaking, and how to fix it.

This episode is a research round up! We are discussing three new (ish) studies and reviews on nutrition, strength training, and a study that helped us change our mind!

In this episode of Research 2 Reps, we had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Paul Comfort, whose work has influenced how so many of us think about Olympic lifting, power development, and applied sports science. Paul walks us through how his early research on pull variations reshaped real-world training for athletes who may not be ready for or suited to full catches. We talk about what happens when you shorten the pull, how power and rate of force development can actually improve, and why removing the catch is not the step backward some believe it to be. What stands out is how curiosity in the classroom turned into research that now guides programming across professional sport, collegiate athletics, and beyond. Our conversation expands into force plate testing, biological variability, and what data is actually worth acting on. Paul challenges the idea of collecting information for the sake of collecting it and pushes us to ask what meaningful change really looks like. We explore the difference between influencing performance and trying to control it, especially in complex team environments where psychology, leadership, nutrition, recovery, and belief play massive roles. This episode is a reminder that great performance systems are built through cohesion, clarity, and humility. We do not control outcomes, but we can shape environments that give athletes their best chance to succeed. Big thanks to podcast sponsors, Sorinex and EliteForm, for making these episodes possible.

Noah Eubanks started painting curbs at 16 after seeing it on a YouTube video. Now he's 22, runs a 60-person fiber team, and just hit Golden Door while earning well over $200K.In this episode, Sam sits down with Noah to break down the problem most fiber reps don't want to hear: the product is so good that it's turning salespeople into order takers. Noah explains why that's costing reps thousands of dollars in missed deals and shares how he still pulls 10-13 sales in fiber vs fiber neighborhoods where everyone else struggles. He walks through his approach to cable bundlers (the doors most reps walk away from), using speed tests to create pain, and why customers aren't buying fiber—they're buying you.Noah also breaks down how he balances running a team with selling: 8:30am Starbucks meetings, split shift knocking, a personal assistant handling admin, and nightly check-in calls from the gym.Thank you for listening!

Drake Maye's shoulder injury/How many reps did Maye take yesterday?

Brock Grieve ran a 50-man team across four markets that did $23 million in revenue this year. He also personally sold $830K and earned his fifth Golden Door. Most leaders pick one or the other. He did both.In this episode, Hunter sits down with Brock to break down how he structured his days to lead and sell at the same time—morning trainings at 10 and 11am, one-on-ones during off-door hours, and full lock-in from 1pm until dark. Brock shares the early-summer anxiety that almost derailed his run, the morning routine that pulled him out (breathwork, identity questions, deleting social media, phone in black and white mode), and why proximity to people doing what you want to do is the only real cheat code.His team averaged $200K per rep, $51K rookie earnings, and less than 15% attrition. One of his leaders, Kyle Ring, went from 300 accounts to Golden Door with over 90% retention.Thank you for listening! Don't miss out on future episodes!

AJC Washington bureau chief Tia Mitchell examines how a deadly federal immigration enforcement shooting in Minneapolis is reverberating through Georgia politics, as Democratic senators Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock threaten to block a government funding bill unless new limits on ICE are included. She explains why a partial government shutdown appears increasingly likely and how Republican challengers are seizing on the issue in a heated election year. The episode then features a recorded roundtable hosted by AJC reporters Maya T. Prabhu and Michelle Baruchman with state Reps. Yasmin Neal and Clint Crowe, both former police detectives. The lawmakers offer sharply different views on the Minnesota shooting, the role of ICE in Georgia, and how immigration enforcement affects public trust, while also identifying areas where bipartisan cooperation on public safety could still emerge under the Gold Dome.

Sales reps often manage deals through CRM stages while missing the buyer's internal reality: approvals, meetings, budget cycles, and shifting priorities. In this episode, Brandon breaks down the two timelines running inside every deal and explains why “random” stalls usually happen when internal motion doesn't match external progress.You'll learn the questions that surface internal decision triggers, how to anchor next steps to real calendar events, and how to stop relying on hope as your timeline. If your deals keep slipping despite strong calls, this episode gives you the framework to regain control.

In this raw and honest episode of Beyond the Sets and Reps, Brandi Clark pulls back the curtain on a season in her business where she came dangerously close to quitting. After making major changes to her sales system—including shifting to weekly live webinars, adjusting pricing, and running paid ads—things initially worked… until they didn't. Brandi shares how rising ad costs, declining lead quality, low webinar show-up rates, and backend overwhelm led to frustration, self-doubt, and the feeling that maybe she wasn't cut out for the next level of growth. Through tears, hard conversations, and a deep dive into what was really happening behind the scenes, she uncovered a powerful truth: Growth hurts—and that pain doesn't mean you're failing. It means you're evolving. Using the metaphor of literal “growing pains,” Brandi explains why every stage of business—from the beginning to scaling past six figures—comes with discomfort, doubt, and the temptation to quit. She also shares the critical lessons she learned about consistency, lead quality vs. quantity, and why most people quit right before the breakthrough. This episode is for fitness professionals, coaches, and online business owners who feel stuck, tired, or discouraged—even when they're doing “all the right things.” In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why wanting to quit is often a sign you're growing—not failing The difference between low-cost leads and high-quality leads (and why it matters) How changing sales systems can expose hidden bottlenecks in your business Why consistency beats intensity every time How to choose a cadence you can actually commit to The power of small, daily money-making actions and the compound effect What to do when progress feels slow and frustration sets in If you've ever questioned your path, your pace, or your ability to keep going—this episode will remind you why you started and help you stay in the game when it matters most.

Fast reps vs slow reps: which one builds strength without raising injury risk? In this final installment of the Principles of Exercise Design Series, Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher break down one of the most misunderstood topics in training: speed of movement. They unpack what really matters when it comes to fast reps vs slow reps, why intent is more important than rushing the weight, and how smart tempo choices can improve strength without increasing injury risk. Tune in to hear how rethinking speed of movement can completely change the way you train. Amy and Dr. Fisher explain the mechanics of speed of movement in each phase of a lift. The concentric phase is when the muscle shortens and moves the weight away from the body. The eccentric phase is the controlled return, when the muscle lengthens as the weight comes back. Dr. Fisher explains why speed of movement is often misunderstood. Most people can't accurately tell how fast they're moving during normal exercises. That's why they rely more on tempo and control. Dr. Fisher reveals how isokinetic Exobotics devices measure exact distance and exact velocity throughout the lift.  Amy and Dr. Fisher explain why moving fast is not required to produce power. The body responds to effort and tension, not reckless speed. This is a key shift many people miss when training without a personal trainer. Dr. Fisher covers what the research really says about rep speed and muscle growth. Studies show no difference in hypertrophy whether reps are performed quickly or slowly. That finding challenges a lot of outdated gym myths. Dr. Fisher reveals why slower lifting can be the smarter option for most people. You still get the same strength, muscle, and health benefits. The difference is reduced stress on joints and connective tissue. Learn how resistance training supports overall health beyond just muscle size. Benefits like myokine release, metabolism, and energy expenditure occur regardless of rep speed. This reinforces why control matters more than rushing reps. Why resistance training should never increase injury risk. Amy emphasizes that exercise is meant to improve health, not compromise it. If training causes injury, it's moving in the wrong direction. Amy explains why exercise should always leave you more capable than before. Training should enhance function, not reduce it.  Dr. Fisher explains how speed of movement can vary depending on the exercise being performed. Different movements may call for different tempos to maintain tension.  Amy explains how personal trainers guide clients using clear tempo prescriptions. A coach can say four seconds up, six seconds down, and explain exactly why. That clarity improves safety, effectiveness, and motivation in strength training sessions.     Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!

It's Friday, January 23rd, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Iran makes large sums of money off the backs of persecuted Christians Iran has an open secret. Persecuting Christians is a booming business in the Muslim-majority nation, and the country is earning large sums of money from arresting Christ followers, reports International Christian Concern. Fines and bail amounts imposed by Iranian courts have reached hundreds of thousands of dollars in recent years, financially crippling poor Christian families trying to keep their loved ones out of prison. For years, the Middle Eastern nation has targeted Christians for their faith in Christ through intimidation, physical abuse, and imprisonment. But what's often overlooked are the exorbitant bail amounts doled out to Christ followers simply to keep themselves out of jail. Joseph Shahbazian, leader of a Christian house church, was arrested in June 2020 for his Christian activities and given a bail amount of $163,000. After pleading with the court and handing over the deeds to his and his mother's apartments, the court accepted $109,000 on Shahbazian's behalf. Proverbs 22:22-23 says, "Do not rob the poor because he is poor, nor oppress the afflicted at the gate; For the LORD will plead their cause, and plunder the soul of those who plunder them." Shahbazian was released from prison in 2023 after serving a little more than a year in jail, but was rearrested in 2025 for his continued Christian activities and sentenced to an additional 10 years in jail. According to Open Doors, Iran is the sixth most difficult country worldwide for Christians. Trump ends all tax-funded research with aborted baby parts On January 22nd, the 53rd anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision, President Donald Trump ended federal funding for research involving the use of aborted baby parts. It's a major victory for pro-life advocates that halts taxpayer support for such studies effective immediately, reports The Daily Wire. The National Institutes of Health announced the policy change on Thursday. The move prohibits the use of funds for research involving aborted baby parts obtained from elective abortions, while allowing ethical fetal tissue from sources such as miscarriages when donors consent. NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya said, “Someone who has had a miscarriage and wants to do a meaningful thing and they donate the tissue from the miscarriage to science, that's still allowed. The only ban is on, you have an abortion specifically to terminate the baby, and then the tissue then gets sold, that's what's being banned,” something he described as “morally abhorrent.” Rescue Resurrection protesters plead with Trump to ban abortion pill People from as far away as California and Georgia came to the nation's capital Thursday morning to plead with the Trump administration to ban the abortion kill pill, which is now easily available by mail and has led to a shocking increase of abortions following the Supreme Court's overturn of Roe v. Wade, reports LifeSiteNews.com. In the shadow of the U.S. Capitol dome, 20 people with Rescue Resurrection were arrested by United States Capitol Police outside the Health and Human Services headquarters as they sat down in the middle of the street. They were singing. RESCUE RESURRECTION: “Help us tell the nation we want a pro-life revolution. Help us tell the nation we want a pro-life revolution” POLICEMAN: “Everyone is now under arrest. You will be placed in handcuffs.” RESCUE RESURRECTION: “Ban the abortion pill!” POLICEMAN: “If you don't plan on being arrested, leave the street. If you don't plan on being arrested, you need to go onto the sidewalk.” Some of the members of Rescue Resurrection had been incarcerated under the F.A.C.E. Act by the Biden Justice Department and then pardoned by President Donald Trump. Elderly pro-life icon Joan Andrews Bell was kneeling before a group of police carried her off of the street and cuffed her. (Watch the video of the arrest through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com). Emily Berning, president of Let Them Live, said, “The chemical abortion pill has become the chemical coat hanger, and the bathroom has become the new back alley. The abortion pill is twenty-two times more dangerous than the FDA told the American people. When the truth is buried, women are the ones who bleed in silence. “And that is why we're standing here outside HHS. HHS is not a bystander in this. HHS has the authority to regulate and the power to act, [yet] they still have allowed a dangerous drug to remain on the market.” JD Vance & Second Lady announce they're expecting fourth child Second Lady Usha Vance announced she is pregnant and will deliver a boy  in late July, according to a Tuesday statement on social media. This will be the fourth child for Vice President J.D. Vance and Usha, and their third son. U.S. to gain “total access” to Greenland without payment On January 22nd, President Donald Trump said that the United States is negotiating an arrangement to secure full access to Greenland with no payment in return and unconstrained by any time limit, reports the Epoch Times. He appeared on Fox Business with Maria Bartiromo. Listen. BARTIROMO: “So, what are we talking about? An acquisition of Greenland? Are you going to pay for it?” TRUMP: “Essentially, it's total access. There's no end. There's no time limit. We're not doing, you know, the famous '99-year' deals that you hear about. Countries go on longer. I noticed the stock market went up pretty substantially after we announced it.” BARTIROMO: “The [Gross Domestic Product] of Greenland is like $3.3 billion, but people are valuing Greenland between $50 billion and almost a trillion [dollars]. So, what are you willing to pay for Greenland?” TRUMP: “Well, I'm not going to have to pay anything.” The president has described U.S control of the Arctic island as critical to both national and international security.  Indeed, Greenland will be an essential property to facilitate the much-anticipated Golden Dome, the U.S. missile defense system that will destroy enemy missiles before they launch or while they are in flight. It will be patterned after Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system. TRUMP: “We're going to have total access to Greenland. We're going to have all military access that we want. We're going to be able to put what we need on Greenland. We're talking about national security and international security. We are building the Golden Dome, and it'll be Israel times probably a hundred.” 7 Democrats voted with GOP to pass DHS/ICE spending bill Seven Democrats voted with Republicans on Thursday to pass a Department of Homeland Security spending bill, despite opposition from their own Democratic leadership, reports Fox News. The DHS bill will be bundled alongside three other spending bills, totaling a combined $1.2 trillion in federal spending. The entire package's passing is a significant step toward averting a government shutdown come January 30th. It passed in a 220-207 vote with the help of seven Democrats. Only one Republican, Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, voted in opposition.  According to TheHill.com, the seven Democrats who sided with Republicans were Reps. Henry Cuellar of Texas, Jared Golden of Maine, Marie Perez of Washington, Laura Gillen of New York, Don Davis of North Carolina, Tom Suozzi of New York and Vicente Gonzalez of Texas. Anniversary of hymnwriter deaths who wrote “Holy, holy, holy” and “Jesus Loves Me” And finally, we recognize the anniversary of the deaths of two Christian hymnwriters, both of whom died on January 22nd. John Dykes, who died on January 22, 1876, composed the music to the hymn "Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty!"  sung here by Shane & Shane. SHANE AND SHANE: “Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty! All Thy works shall praise Thy name, in Earth, and sky, and sea; Holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty! God in three Persons, blessed Trinity.” Isaiah 6:3 says, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole Earth is full of His glory.” And on January 22, 1915, Anna Bartlett Warner, the author of "Jesus Loves Me", died.  Listen to the lesser known second verse with the chorus, sung by Nathan Drake of Reawaken Hymns. (Learn more about him here). DRAKE: “Jesus loves me He who died Heaven's gate to open wide. He will wash away my sin, Let His little child come in. (Refrain) “Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so.” 1 John 4:19 says, "We love because [Christ] first loved us."

“That chip on my shoulder made me less empathetic, more rushed, too eager to solve things too fast, and less thoughtful. That chip built me, but then it started to tear me down.” I said that recently in a conversation with Harriet Mellor of Your Sales Co, and it captures something every sales leader needs to understand.  I grew up in the sales training business. My dad literally wrote THE book on prospecting—several of them, actually. I worked at Paycom, Comcast, and various startups where I consistently crushed my numbers. But what I learned is that knowing the right techniques and getting your team to actually implement them are two completely different challenges. Sales training resistance is rarely about bad content. More often, it is about ego and pride standing in the way of growth. I had to recognize that in myself before I could address it in the people I lead. Why Your Top Performers Resist Training the Most When I was a rep, I was terrible at taking coaching. Not because I didn’t understand the concepts. I understood them better than most. But when someone tried to coach me, I tuned out. The problem was I’d already figured out a system that worked. I was hitting my numbers. Why would I mess with it? Think about learning golf. You chunk the ground twenty times, then suddenly you make contact. The ball doesn’t go straight or very far, but it goes. Someone tries to teach you proper form, your first thought is, “I already figured out how to hit the ball.” That’s where many top performers live. They’ve reached an equilibrium. Not peak performance, but functional competence. Training feels disruptive because it threatens what is currently working. They’re not resisting because they’re stubborn. They’re resisting because they have something to lose. What if they try something new and their numbers drop? They’d rather stay at 85% effectiveness than risk dropping to 60%, even if it means eventually reaching 120%. Two Ways Ego Hurts Performance Creates Rush Instead of Curiosity At Paycom, I carried a massive chip on my shoulder. I carried the same name as my dad. People knew who he was. I felt pressure to prove I belonged. So I rushed. I skipped discovery. I pushed toward proposals. I talked more than I listened. Every call felt like a test I needed to pass. You can hear this on your team's calls. Reps who are trying to prove something move too fast. They stop asking questions. They perform instead of selling. That behavior is driven by ego, and it costs deals. Telling them to slow down will not fix it. You need to understand what they feel compelled to prove and why they associate speed with competence. Blocks From Actually Learning When I was carrying a quota, I thought I was a lifelong learner. I read every sales book. I listened to podcasts. I sat through hours of training sessions. But when it came to changing what I did on Monday morning, I defaulted right back to what I knew. I’d hear a new objection handling technique and think, “Yeah, I basically already do that.” I didn’t. But ego wouldn’t let me see the gap. Your salespeople are doing the same thing right now. They’re taking in your coaching but filtering it through their existing beliefs. They’re protecting the system that’s currently working. And they’re developing blind spots they can’t see. Watch for the reps who stop recording their calls because they “know what they sound like.” The ones who skip role play because it’s “not realistic.” The ones who tune out your coaching because you “don’t understand their territory.” Reps who do this aren't trying to be difficult, but instead trying to protect their self-image instead of improving their performance. Why Your Team Listens to Outside Trainers But Not You One of the most frustrating parts of leadership is to preach a methodology for six months and nothing changes. Then an outside consultant shows up and says the exact same thing. Suddenly, everyone’s taking notes and engaged. I experienced this firsthand with my dad. He would offer advice, and I tuned out. Days later, I would hear the same message from someone else and think it was brilliant. It wasn’t about the message. It was about who was delivering it. When you try to coach your team, there’s history. There’s baggage. Maybe you’ve given conflicting directions before. Maybe they see you as “management” instead of someone who gets it. Maybe they just don’t like admitting to their boss that they need help. Outside trainers don’t carry that weight. They show up with a clean slate and credibility that’s granted just by being an outsider. The real question isn't how to make your team listen to you. It is how to create an environment where learning feels safe, regardless of who delivers it. How to Break Through Sales Training Resistance Frame Training as Addition, Not Correction I stopped resisting coaching when my leaders stopped making me feel like I was doing things wrong. Instead of pointing out flaws, the best managers invited experimentation. Instead of “you need to improve your discovery process,” the best managers said, “try asking this question in your next three calls and see what happens.”  Position new techniques as tools to add to what’s already working, not corrections to what’s broken. Your team will actually try them. Make It Safe to Fail On the marketing team, I got my team members on sales calls. Yeah, marketers are making prospecting calls alongside me. It felt like a crazy concept until it started working. Importantly, I let them hear my wins and my mistakes so they knew I was in it with them the entire way. I wanted them to see me stumble over a question. Get flustered. Say the wrong thing. Then watch me debrief it and do better on the next call. When I started doing this, something shifted. My team stopped being afraid to try new things. If I could screw up a cold call and laugh about it, they could too. The tide turned when they asked to jump in with me and started booking appointments. The win unlocked a new level of understanding. These marketers suddenly believed that they could, instead of simply being told that they could. Your salespeople need to see you fail. Not in a performative way. In a real, vulnerable, “I’m still learning too” way. That’s when they’ll give themselves permission to be imperfect. And that’s when actual learning happens. Change One Small Thing at a Time I didn’t transform my sales approach overnight. The managers who got through to me asked me to change one thing every few weeks. One question to add to discovery. One way to handle a specific objection. After six months, I’d transformed my entire process. But I never had to risk everything at once. Pick one behavior for your team. Make it specific. Make it small. Give them three weeks to practice it. Then add something else. Stop trying to overhaul their entire approach in one training session. Let Them Experience the Win You can tell your team a technique works until you’re blue in the face. They won’t really believe you until they feel it themselves. My marketing team didn’t enjoy making calls at first. They were uncomfortable. They were bad at it. But then they got their first yes. That moment when someone on the other end of the phone said, “Yeah, let’s set up a time to talk”—everything changed. That lift in your chest when you close a deal? That high you get from hearing yes? You can’t explain that. Your people have to experience it. Stop trying to convince your team that new approaches work. Create low-risk situations where they can discover it themselves. Role-play early, followed by real calls together. Small wins. Repeat. When Ego Stops Being Their Engine Every salesperson reaches a moment when the traits that fueled early success start creating friction. The confidence that helped them pick up the phone becomes arrogance that stops them from listening. The drive that made them a top performer becomes anxiety that makes them rush. For me, that moment came when I realized that chip on my shoulder wasn’t serving me anymore. It had driven early success. Then it started tearing me down. I was less empathetic, more rushed, less thoughtful. Most salespeople never recognize that moment. They keep pushing the same way they always have, wondering why it’s getting harder to hit their numbers. Your role as a leader is to help them spot it. Not by calling it out directly—that triggers defensiveness—but by creating an environment where they feel safe enough to recognize it themselves. The best salespeople develop the ability to notice when pride is shielding them from feedback. They know when to trust instinct and when to slow down and listen. What to Do This Week Look at who is hitting their numbers while quietly resisting coaching. Those are rarely problem reps. They are people protecting what feels safe. Start with one person and one behavior. Keep the change small enough that it does not threaten their confidence. Model your own learning openly. When people see that improvement does not require perfection, they are more willing to try. I spent years proving I was good enough instead of getting better. Many salespeople do the same thing. Ego does not disappear with success. It just gets quieter. The leaders who drive sustained performance create environments where learning feels normal, progress is visible, and growth does not require losing face. If you are leading a small sales team, coaching resistance gets magnified.

A federal judge in the Southern District of New York has rejected a bipartisan effort by Reps. Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Thomas Massie (R-KY) to appoint a special master or independent monitor to oversee the Department of Justice's compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which requires the DOJ to release all investigative materials related to Jeffrey Epstein by a December 19, 2025 deadline. The lawmakers argued that the department's slow pace — with only a small fraction of millions of documents disclosed so far — and extensive redactions suggested noncompliance with the law and harmed survivors seeking transparency. They pressed Judge Paul Engelmayer to intervene in the matter of the files' release, citing serious concerns about the DOJ's handling of the disclosures.In his ruling, Judge Engelmayer acknowledged that the issues Khanna and Massie raised were “undeniably important and timely” and highlighted genuine concerns about whether the DOJ is faithfully complying with federal law. However, he concluded that he does not have the legal authority or jurisdiction in the ongoing criminal proceedings involving Ghislaine Maxwell to oversee or enforce compliance with the civil transparency statute, since the matter of releasing records under the Epstein Files Transparency Act is not part of that criminal case. The judge said the lawmakers lack standing to intervene in this context and suggested they pursue other avenues of oversight outside the Maxwell case, such as civil litigation or congressional tools, leaving the oversight fight over the release of the files to proceed through political and legislative, rather than judicial, channels.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Microsoft Word - MaxwellOrderJan21PAE

It's Episode 100, baby!

I've had the opportunity to follow Seth Brock since his days at Eagle High School here in the Treasure Valley. Back then, I got to watch him compete as a tight end and defensive end, and he was also getting after it on the wrestling mat. He was a high-level athlete then, and now he's a national champion at Montana State. In this episode, Seth takes us inside what the transition to college football really looks like. Going from being "the guy" in high school to showing up at the next level where nobody cares who you were. You're back at ground zero. You're earning everything—your reps, your role, and your respect. We talk about what his redshirt year taught him, how to stay mentally locked in when you're practicing all week but not suiting up on Saturdays, and why timing is everything when you're trying to climb the depth chart. We also dive into the wrestling-to-football connection and why wrestling builds an edge for linemen—hand fighting, leverage, conditioning, adversity, and the mental toughness that carries over into life. Seth shares a powerful metaphor their D-line room lives by: "Water the bamboo." You don't always see growth right away… until it shoots up. Seth also breaks down Montana State's championship standard, the physicality of Big Sky football, and what it's like being part of a team that refuses to fold—even with their backs against the wall. Plus, he shares some unforgettable moments from this season, including Gold Rush, the Super Brawl, and his welcome-to-college-football moment at Oregon. If you're an athlete trying to make the jump to the next level—or a parent, coach, or sports fan who loves the stories behind the grind—this one is packed with lessons on preparation, patience, and maximizing opportunities when they come. To support Seth, check out his NIL links and gear, and follow him on Instagram.
