Today on the Idaho Business Podcast, Spencer sits down with Seth Horst—realtor in beautiful Coeur d'Alene, retired California Highway Patrol officer turned Idaho convert, and host of the Idaho Experience podcast (and the North Idaho Experience YouTube channel). Seth shares how his team of former first responders and veterans grew by being unapologetically themselves, niching hard, and attracting clients who share their values. They dig into why culture beats everything, how clear core values filter both hires and clients, and why North Idaho's throwback, say-hi-to-strangers vibe makes community the real selling point. You'll hear how niching actually reduces marketing cost while increasing trust, why "all money is not good money," and what it takes to scale a team without losing your soul. Seth also talks community work—from long-form local conversations to a judicial watch effort—and why informed citizens keep Idaho, Idaho. Lightning Round: Seth's current read is Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell, and his "myth to bust" is that casting a wide net wins—it's the niche that wins.

What do you get when a convicted killer tries to stage-manage his legacy from Death Row? Chad Daybell's new prison letters are less a private outpouring and more a calculated rebranding—religious framing, family testimony, nostalgic anecdotes, and the promise of “more” to come. In this episode we pull the curtain back on those letters and trace the psychological playbook: narcissistic supply, image control, and the strategic seeding of an appeals narrative. We'll map the players—Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow, Tammy Daybell, Tylee Ryan and JJ Vallow—then drop in other critical figures who appear in the bleed-through of the story: Charles Vallow, Alex Cox, Brandon Beaudreau (and the variants people search), the witnesses who testified, local law enforcement in Rexburg and Fremont County, FBI agents, and the prosecutors who built the case. This is equal parts courtroom forensic, cult-leader theater, and behavioral profile—aimed at listeners who want to see the rhetorical tricks, the legal signals, and the people who keep getting pulled back into this tragic orbit.#ChadDaybell #LoriVallow #TammyDaybell #TyleeRyan #JJVallow #CharlesVallow #AlexCox #BrandonBeaudreau #brandonbeaudreuax #Rexburg #FremontCounty #IdahoMaximumSecurity #IdahoMSI #RexburgIdaho #FremontCountySheriff #RexburgPolice #IdahoStatePolice #FBI #Prosecutors #WitnessTestimony #CourtroomDrama #TrialCoverage #CultCrimes #TrueCrimeCommunity #ProfilingEvil #JusticeForTammy #JusticeForTylee #JusticeForJJ #DaybellTrial #VallowInvestigation=======================================20% Off on www.Newspapers.com/profilingevil Order Wolves in Sheep's Clothing now! https://www.profilingevil.com/wolvesOrder Deceived, An Investigative Memoir of the Zion Society Cult.
