Richie is joined by the Irish writer Gerry O'Neill. Gerry's new book "Unvaxxed Soul: A Post-pandemic Spirit Journey" is a terrific read. It's a post-lockdown Irish road memoir about:Wrestling with freedom, responsibility, faith and doubt, moving on from borrowed beliefs to something real, rooted and deeply personal. Facing the shadowed corners of your own story instead of escaping them. Learning, slowly and imperfectly, how to live from a quieter centre. If you've ever felt out of step with the crowd, suspicious of easy answers, or drawn to a spirituality that's messy, human and hard-won, Unvaxxed Soul is a companion for the long road home.https://www.amazon.co.uk/Unvaxxed-Soul-post-pandemic-spirit-journey-ebook/dp/B0G2T5DHX8https://substack.com/@westawakehttps://www.youtube.com/@thescholargypsies

Welcome back to Shoot the Hostage, where Sarah and Dan continue their season dedicated to true crime films with Episode 4 of 8. This week, we take on our first Spike Lee joint in his 1999 New York based film, Summer of Sam. This episode acts as the second movie in our "Big Apple double bill" since it's our second film featuring the incomparable John Leguizamo (or Johnny Legs) playing an Italian man living in New York. Although in this one, he's swapped his wrench for some scissors and leopard print underwear. As we get into his leopard print pants and the surprising extent of his improvisations on set, we discover that although the film is set during the Summer of Sam in 1977, the film is less about the specifics of the case itself and much more about the effect on the local Bronx community. What to Expect in this Episode: Differing opinions on 70s fashion, specifically the dagger collar. We ask whether the film's shift in focus makes it more, or less respectful to the victims' relatives. A look at the film's technical style, including Spike Lee's signature double dolly shots and Scorsese-esque influences. How Adrien Brody's character, Richie, embodies the fear and paranoia directed toward outsiders in the community. Discussion of the film's theme of identity and the hypocrisy exposed by the neighbourhood's judgments. Commentary on Vinnie's vile nature and the hosts' "Johnny Legs bias". The connection between the shift from the disco to the punk era and the film's excellent music selection. Would you like to see the full lineup for season 13?

In this talk, Richie Reeder explores the theme of joy during the third week of Advent, drawing from the personal experiences of his daughter's early health challenges to illustrate the depth and complexity of true joy. He delves into the biblical story of Mary in Luke chapter 1, highlighting her journey from fear to unexpected joy as a model for embracing God's promises amidst life's trials. Richie encourages listeners to intentionally ponder and treasure moments of joy, even amid difficulties, as they anticipate the hope of the Advent season.
no inserted ads: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcastThis Week on a super classic episode of Dopey! Dave is visited by local Long Islander - Will P. AKA Hairy Tongue Will. Dave opens the show drinking Ryze mushroom coffee while talking about how cold his recording room is. He announces that Dopey will be releasing five episodes per week throughout December, including replays, Patreon teasers, deep cuts, and new interviews.He gives sobriety shoutouts — notably Lauren's three-year milestone and Maddie Veitch from Leftover Salmon celebrating her own recovery marker. He encourages listeners to email in clean-time milestones for future episodes.Dave then goes through a lengthy run of Spotify comments left on the Darrell Hammond episode. The comments range from people complaining about the “This or That” game, others defending it, jokes about possums, encouragement about psychedelics, questions about whether Darrell is truly sober, praise for the episode, frustration with the interview pacing, random remarks about Lime Drive and “Mike's Amazing Stuff,” plus multiple requests for stickers. Dave reads each comment and jokes along, sometimes offering to send merch.Ads for Mountainside and Link Diagnostics follow. Dave talks about how Mountainside is central to the history of Dopey and how Link Diagnostics offers drug testing services that help people “stay positive and test negative.”Dave then plays an LSD voicemail from Henry in San Francisco, who took two hits of acid alone in college. Henry becomes one with his bicycle, panics at a house fumigation tent he interprets as a circus, fears he'll be mutated by pesticides, runs home, listens to the Butthole Surfers, sees Aztec gods appearing from shifting ceiling patterns, and eventually rides it out. He is now 15 months sober and credits Dopey Nation for support.Next he reads an email from Jerry, who describes crazy addiction history including fighting cops on PCP, overdoses, ventilators, and robbing heroin dealers. Jerry discovered Dopey by typing “heroin” into the podcast search bar while newly out of rehab in 2018. His biggest complaint is that Dave has never watched Joe Dirt.The episode opens with your intro, then the bulk of the show is Hairy Tongue Will's massive, chaotic, detailed telling of his addiction, near-death runs, arrests, relapse cycles, dead friends, and eventual recovery.Will describes the early Long Island chaos with Richie, Mike, and Lenny—everyone strung out on heroin, crack, coke, and whatever they could get. He recalls the first serious turn: showing up to a house where Lenny was passed out after a three-day crack run, realizing “the demons are taking over.” Mike and Richie spiral deeper, and Will keeps managing to “hold it together” thanks to jobs, work ethic, and a strange electrical-job stabilizer that kept him semi-functional.He details years of DUIs, probation, manipulating drug tests, smoking crack constantly while still working 16-hour electrician shifts, and thriving socially because coworkers lived vicariously through him. He normalized chaos, missing only “one no-call/no-show every two weeks,” which he considered acceptable.Will then dives into his first short attempt at stability, living in a basement apartment. His probation officer surprises him the day after a holiday: the apartment is filled with beer cans, bongs, baggies. He fails the test, is sent back to rehab/jail cycles, and explains why Long Island addicts often choose jail over treatment. He describes his surreal time in jail—being sent to the Montauk Lighthouse on work crews, eating egg sandwiches and black-and-milds with the guards, becoming “the useful guy,” actually feeling respected and purposeful.Back outside, he tries again, fails again, collects DUIs, cycles through companies, loses jobs, hustles side work, and repeatedly relapses. A wedding night leads to another DUI. COVID hits while he's in jail. He gets out, starts working nonstop, earns money, piles cash in a closet, stacks crypto, reads self-help books, sleeps on a mattress on the floor, becomes obsessed with success and control.Then he meets a girl in Tennessee. He drinks again “successfully” only when he flies there. He builds a double life—working himself numb, drinking out of state, convincing himself he's different.Eventually, on a work trip, he gambles, wins big, drinks an old fashioned, and secretly cooks his boss's cocaine into crack. This reignites the obsession. Will starts traveling the Northeast and Midwest, repeatedly pulling crack-seeking missions: gas stations, high-crime neighborhoods, asking strangers, “I'm looking for some hard.” He builds drug contacts in Bridgeport, Dayton, Maine, Virginia, wherever the job sends him. He smokes in hotels, hallucinates blood on floors, changes rooms repeatedly.He recounts the deaths of friends:Mike, whose father turned their home into a sheet-walled trap house with dealers and bikers living inside.How Mike died with his father selling sneakers off his dead son's body.Richie, who got sober then died of fentanyl after nearly two years clean.Will's life collapses further—obsession, resentment toward God, jealousy, terminal uniqueness. He becomes a “demon,” wanting to die like his friends. He terrifies his girlfriend with delusional FaceTimes, nine-day runs, psychosis. She moves in without knowing the truth and becomes trapped in codependency.He stays high for 26 straight days, manipulates her with antihistamine allergy episodes to cover his psychosis, hides crack pipes around the house with ring cameras everywhere. He finally admits some truth, gives her $5,000 to escape, but she stays another nine months.He tells insane stories:Pretending he's a trust-fund baby to get free crackGetting shot at by a dealer after a misunderstanding over “two grams” vs “two ounces”Driving through wooded roads barefoot at gas stationsDealers trying to jump himBecoming a mule for a recently-released dealer (Ace)Near misses, violence, and pure street insanityEventually, during a pickup, he gets chased, prays for police lights, and his car breaks down. Cops descend. He gets a mountain of charges (“five decades worth”). He thinks he'll die in prison. Bail reform gets him released. He immediately uses again for 17 more days.A sober lawyer tries pushing him toward St. Christopher's. Will resists, manipulates LICR, relapses again, cancels his own insurance, tries to die, and after weeks of chaos his mother gets him re-approved. He enters St. Chris, still delusional, still dangerous.There he breaks. He admits suicidal thoughts, gets a guard stationed outside his door, hears the blunt truth—you're the worst-off guy here and you did this to yourself. It lands. Will begins working the program: spiritual direction, grief groups, codependency, meetings, kitchen duty, everything. He reconnects with his mother in sobriety. He attends court in suits provided by the facility and ultimately receives an unexpectedly generous plea deal.He comes home early, tries to run his own program, stays sober for months, but on Mother's Day runs into an old acquaintance who shows him a Newport box with a pipe inside. He relapses immediately for three days, misses Mother's Day entirely.That night, suicidal again, he receives a series of calls: first from Jordan, then from his tough sponsor, who gives him clear direction—go to a sober house, go to daily groups, go to nightly meetings, call people, build structure. Will frauds his urine to get in, but once inside, follows every instruction. He stabilizes.He recounts being 18 months sober now, having been at meetings nearly every night, with a recent slip in commitment due to chasing an “intimate partner godshot” that didn't work out. You reassure him that it's fine and that balance is part of recovery.More or less thats the whole thing! On a brand new fucko, crackead episode of that good old dopey show!

It's the final Talking Shit About Nothing episode of 2025, and Jimmy and Richie close out the year with a full-on Christmas extravaganza. The boys dive into their favorite family traditions—from Elf on a Shelf chaos to Jimmy's family dusting off the legendary Super 8 camcorder to film Christmas morning like it's 1979. They take a nostalgic trip through the greatest toy crazes ever, including Tickle Me Elmo, Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots, and all the holiday madness that comes with chasing down the “it” gift of the season. To end the episode, Jimmy shares a heartfelt message encouraging everyone to reach out to the people in their lives—because life is short, and a simple text or call can mean everything. Richie follows with a reminder to appreciate family and cherish the time you have with them. It's warm, it's funny, it's nostalgic, and it's the perfect way to close out the year. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from Jimmy, Richie, and the Talking Shit About Nothing family. We'll see you in 2026!
You know what's wild? I had three of my coaches (Richie, Dennis, and Rob) on the podcast this week to settle the organic vs. paid ads debate once and for all. Combined, they've spent tens of millions on paid ads and generated hundreds of millions in revenue for clients. And here's what they said: If you're doing organic without paid ads, you're playing marketing on hard mode. Organic takes 90-100+ videos before you hit an inflection point. Each piece takes 3+ hours. And you're competing against dopamine-engineered content designed to keep people scrolling. Meanwhile, our clients spend $5-10/day on ads and get 5+ booked calls. But the weirdest part? The #1 objection we hear from freelancers about running ads is: "I'll look desperate." Especially music producers. They think if people see them running ads, everyone will assume they're struggling for work. Which is... completely backwards. We break down why in this week's podcast episode. We also cover: When organic actually makes sense (and when it's a waste of time) Why choose YouTube over Instagram when creating organic content The real reason ads + organic work like rocket fuel together How one client spent $900 and brought in $40K For full show notes, visit https://6figurecreative.com/392

Confused about the difference between an Official Visit and an Unofficial Visit? You're not alone. Most parents and athletes guess their way through this part of the recruiting process and leave thousands of dollars (and scholarship offers) on the table.In this episode, Coach Brian (Head Coach at Next Play) and I break down exactly how college football visits work, who pays for what, and the specific text message strategy you can use to turn interest into an official visit invite.In this video, we cover:Official vs. Unofficial Visits: The #1 difference is who pays. We explain what D1, D2, and NAIA schools cover.The "Junior Day" Trap: Why these are almost always unofficial and how to know if you are actually being recruited.The New NCAA Rules: You can now take unlimited official visits (one per school). Here is how to use that to your advantage.The "Plant The Seed" Strategy: The exact script to use when sending your end-of-season highlights to get a coach to book a visit.The 50-School Rule: Why targeting only 5 schools is a recipe for disaster and how to widen your net to get real options.Your Next Play: Stop waiting for coaches to find you.

This week, we're joined by Richie Mashiko - Head of Beacon at Iris Finance for a full breakdown of how BFCM played out across their businesses. Together, the group recaps what actually drove performance this year, from media-mix diversification and top-of-funnel investment to traffic dynamics, conversion-rate behavior, and how different brand sizes approached Cyber Five strategy.From there, Richie walks through his forecasting philosophy - including how he builds bottoms-up financial models, how diminishing returns shape CAC and forecasting assumptions, and how finance and marketing need to stay aligned around realistic growth expectations. The group also dives into contribution margin, AMER, customer mix, and why so many brands forecast incorrectly when marketing isn't part of the planning process.They then unpack the levers that actually make an ecommerce business profitable: cohort behavior, scaling past category saturation, interpreting flat conversion rates alongside surging traffic, and what contribution dollars really tell you. Richie shares lessons learned from She's Birdie's rebuild year and how smaller brands can apply the same financial discipline as companies operating at nine-figure scale.If you're trying to understand your BFCM results, build a forecast that reflects reality, or get finance and marketing speaking the same language, this episode is a must-listen.If you have a question for the MOperators Hotline, click the link to be in with a chance of it being discussed on the show: https://forms.gle/1W7nKoNK5Zakm1Xv6Chapters:00:00:00 - Introduction00:06:40 - BFCM recap00:24:47 - Media Mix Strategy00:41:52 - International Markets00:53:44 - FP&A Background01:07:05 - Building a ForecastPowered by:Motion.https://motionapp.com/pricing?utm_source=marketing-operators-podcast&utm_medium=paidsponsor&utm_campaign=march-2024-ad-readshttps://motionapp.com/creative-trendsPrescient AI.https://www.prescientai.com/operatorsRichpanel.https://www.richpanel.com/?utm_source=MO&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=ytdescAftersell.https://www.aftersell.com/operatorsHaus.http://Haus.io/operatorsSubscribe to the 9 Operators Podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/@Operators9Subscribe to the Finance Operators Podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/@FinanceOperatorsFOPSSign up to the 9 Operators newsletter here: https://9operators.com/
A classic pastime is getting its own national championship. The Stone Skimming Nationals will be held next May at Lake Hāwea, with the winners heading on to the World Championship in Scotland. Around 150 people are expected to compete, with more than 100 spectating the event. Lake Hāwea Station's Tourism Manager Richie Lang told Heather du Plessis-Allan originally there wasn't a huge amount of interest in hosting the event, but then a cheating scandal at the World Stone Skimming Championships came around and put the sport on the world map. After that, he said, they thought it was time to strike. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
