In this episode the guys sit down with Nick Hexum, lead singer and co-founder of 311, just hours before a live show. Nick opens up about how the band has stayed together for 35 years, his path to sobriety in 2005-06 and how the band stuck by him through it, bringing weights on the road since 1993 and having a full gym dressing room on every tour, and why exercise was his earliest tool for managing anxiety and depression. He covers the study showing dance and exercise outperform SSRIs for depression by one and a half times, how he syncs his workouts to BPM-specific playlists, working with a vocal coach who saved his career, losing his youngest brother to an overdose and finally writing a song about it, Shaq showing up to their music video during the NBA playoffs with two left shoes and a siren on his SUV, meeting Joe Strummer of The Clash and finding a 311 sticker on his boom box, the Rick Rubin creativity principle of audience coming last, and his new Americana solo project with mandolin and fiddle. He also shares his thoughts on AI in the music industry, how the Grateful Dead touring model saved them from the Napster collapse, and why he surfed ten-foot Santa Cruz waves the day before this interview.

Prediction markets are everywhere, but a recent Wall Street Journal investigation raises serious questions about how some platforms are marketed. Zach breaks down the report on Polymarket's use of paid creators, simulated betting videos, and influencer campaigns, then explores the ethics of financial advertising, celebrity endorsements like Rick Rubin's, regulatory gray areas, and whether prediction markets are becoming the latest—and most sophisticated—way to sell people false hope and fake wins.

The R&B icon, dance king and B2K frontman returns to We Sound Crazy for one of the most joyful, grown and reflective conversations of the season. Sitting with hosts Phillionaire, Claude Kelly and Chuck Harmony of Louis York, and Tamone Bacon, Omarion comes in talking about his brand new album O2, a deliberate sequel and 20-year answer to his 2005 solo debut O. He walks the crew through the singles The One (built off a Pharrell Williams sample) and Fantasy (a love letter to the divine feminine), the new generation of writers he chose to work with, and why he is more intentional than ever about energy, mental health and the people he lets into the studio. The conversation also goes deep on the spiritual layer he is building under his music, including sound baths, meditation and the philosophy behind his book The Power of Choosing Joy. The episode runs back two full decades of his career too. Omarion revisits his first ever booked job (the moment he decided not to take his braids out for the audition), the You Got Served era that crowned him King of Dance, the B2K mini-movie videos inspired by Michael Jackson, and the legendary Underdogs era at the same studio that birthed the song Oh when Tank walked down the hallway and told him he needed it. He gets emotional about the B2K reunion and the Millennium Tour, breaking down the atonement and forgiveness behind the group's comeback, the family man versions of his brothers Boog, Raz, and Fizz, and how stepping back on stage together helped them heal childhood traumas in real time. He talks the mentors he calls and the ones he wishes he could (Pharrell, Rick Rubin, Jay Z, Kevin Liles), his partnership with Janine McLean, his action drama series Wild Rose on All Black, and his commitment to becoming what he calls a soul school for the next generation. Press play and let Omarion take you to soul school. We Sound Crazy is your backstage pass to all things music and culture. Special thanks to our We Sound Crazy team!

Rick Rubin joins Marc Andreessen, Ben Horowitz, Anjney Midha, and Erik Torenberg to discuss creativity, artificial intelligence, and his book The Way of Code, which reimagines the Tao Te Ching for the age of AI. The conversation explores vibe coding, remix culture, artistic process, entrepreneurship, and what AI changes, and doesn't change, about creativity. Rubin argues that AI is best understood not as a replacement for artists, but as another creative tool, one that expands what's possible while making taste, curiosity, and individual perspective even more valuable. Along the way, they discuss music, philosophy, startup building, collective intelligence, and why the most enduring creative work begins with staying true to yourself rather than trying to satisfy an audience.   Resources: Follow Rick Rubin on X: https://x.com/rickrubin Follow Marc Andreessen on X: https://x.com/pmarca Follow Ben Horowitz on X: https://x.com/bhorowitz Follow Anjney Midha on X: https://x.com/AnjneyMidha Stay Updated:Find a16z on YouTube: YouTubeFind a16z on XFind a16z on LinkedInListen to the a16z Show on SpotifyListen to the a16z Show on Apple PodcastsFollow our host: https://twitter.com/eriktorenberg Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

Para este episodio uno 3 libros que han sido un regalo para mí: El puente donde habitan las mariposas (Dra. Nazareth Castellanos), El acto de crear, una manera de ser (Rick Rubin) y Mujeres que corren con los lobos (Clarissa Pinkola Estés). Desde estos tres autores y también desde mi experiencia en el retiro de Bocas del Toro en Panamá recientemente, les hablo sobre la importancia de participar en el acto de crear, como un regalo que dejamos al mundo, como testimonio de haber estado por aquí.

Ep 279 Why is Rick Rubin Selling Athletic Nicotine? Kitty wants to know. Why is nicotine suddenly being marketed as a wellness product? In this episode, Kitty O'Compost turns her satirical eye toward the rise of “athletic nicotine,” a new generation of premium nicotine pouches aimed at runners, creatives, executives, and health-conscious high performers. Using Rick Rubin's podcast sponsorship as a starting point, Kitty explores how a highly addictive substance is being wrapped in the language of mindfulness, optimization, and intentional living. With humor, skepticism, and a trip through the False Consensus Detector, Kitty examines the growing effort to separate nicotine from its tobacco past and position it alongside coffee, supplements, and other performance tools. Along the way, she asks whether beautiful branding can obscure biological reality and whether a wellness halo can transform public perception without changing the underlying molecule. Avis closes the episode with a personal reflection on his admiration for Rick Rubin's work and his repeated requests that Rubin reconsider promoting athletic nicotine to his audience. Listen for the peace. Referenced Materials & Studies: Corporate Strategy: Magazine, "How This Founder Changed Minds Instead of Pushing Sales" by Christopher Cason (April 2026). Link to Inc. Article Cardiovascular Risks:The American Heart Association (AHA) Policy Statement, "Impact of Smokeless Oral Nicotine Products on Cardiovascular Disease: Implications for Policy, Prevention, and Treatment" (Published in Circulation). This study tracks the adverse effects of oral pouches on cardiovascular biomarkers and the specific dangers of synthetic nicotine. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39624904/ Excerpt: “Abstract. Smokeless oral nicotine products are addictive, and their use has potential adverse effects on some but not all biomarkers of cardiovascular risk. The use of some types of these products, for instance, is associated with an increased mortality risk in those with ischemic heart or cerebrovascular disease. Similarly, smokeless tobacco has the potential to increase the risk of oral cancer, but the risks depend on the chemical composition of the product. The market of smokeless oral nicotine products has transformed since the last American Heart Association smokeless tobacco policy statement. Several varieties of tobacco-free oral nicotine products-including oral nicotine pouches; nontherapeutic nicotine gums, lozenges, and tablets; and nicotine gummies-have rapidly proliferated. The sales of oral nicotine pouches, in particular, have increased substantially; however, no data are available on their cardiovascular or health risks. In addition, synthetic (compared with tobacco-derived) nicotine has been used in some brands of oral nicotine products, but its cardiovascular and health effects have been inadequately studied. Robust public policy levers are identified to support ending addiction to all commercial tobacco products. Critical components and policy initiatives include clinicians emphasizing the prevention of tobacco product initiation and supporting cessation with established pharmacological and behavioral tobacco dependence treatment therapies as primary goals for achieving an end to commercial tobacco and nicotine addiction.” Public Health Data:The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Fact Sheet on Oral Nicotine Pouches, highlighting rapid dependency loops, systemic toxicity, and the acceleration of youth addiction through modern marketing. Excerpts: “There are no safe tobacco products, including nicotine pouches. This is especially true for youth, young adults, and women who are pregnant.” “More research is needed to better understand the short- and long-term health effects of using nicotine pouches.” Join the Community / Get the Books:AvisKalfsbeek.com

In this episode, hosts Lee-Sean Huang and Giulia Donatello welcome back Rinat Sherzer—a biotech engineer, transdisciplinary designer, artist, and adjunct professor at Parsons School of Design whose work sits at the intersection of science, technology, and social justice. Together, they discuss the deep human construct of hope, unpacking how it differs from mere wishful thinking and exploring how designers can act as vital conduits for it. Rinat shares her journey from scientific training to social innovation, the unpredictable ripple effects of her global projects, and how she balances multi-sensory design, teaching, and motherhood through an intentional quarterly focus. In This EpisodeThe logic of the backward glance. Rinat shares her journey from biotechnology engineering into tech and ultimately to design for social innovation. Mirroring Steve Jobs' famous sentiment, she notes that the dots of a multidisciplinary career can often only be connected in hindsight. The history and bad rep of hope. When researching the framework of hope for her PhD, Rinat was struck by its historical negativity. From Plato viewing it as an unreliable guide to Nietzsche labeling it the worst of all evils, it wasn't until Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning in 1946 that hope was structurally recognized as a vital resource for human survival. The three dimensions of hope framework. Moving beyond Richard Snyder's purely cognitive, goal-oriented approach, Rinat's framework treats hope as an embodied, immersive experience. It breaks down into three dimensions: the extreme moment (crisis or joy) where hope is born, the greater social good if that hope comes to fruition, and the concrete, physical action an individual can take. Breaking bread and multi-sensory co-design. Rinat breaks down her immersive project, The Rebirth of Hope, which utilizes sound and taste to tap into primal, nonverbal memories. By choosing raw ingredients that resonate with their personal dimensions of hope, participants create a literal "bite of hope" to consume collectively, bridging the deeply personal with the universal synergy of a group. Translating data into human music. The Rebirth of Hope project actively translated participant choices into real-time visual musical scores. By mapping hope attributes to chords, rhythm, and melody, a live band performed the collective, experimental music of the exhibition's audience. The accountability gap in design education. As a faculty member at Parsons, Rinat addresses the split between the theory of "design for good" and the messy reality of execution. She argues that standard academic design thinking often leaves prototyping and testing to the very end, missing the vital skills of real-world implementation, business case development, and multi-team collaboration. The organizing cadence of a year. To juggle a global teaching schedule, running her studio (The Creative Lab), artistic output, and raising her son Luca, Rinat rejects daily micromanagement. Instead, she structures her life by dividing the year into quarters, allowing herself to intensely focus on one major priority at a time while setting strict, non-negotiable boundaries for family.

As prediction market platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket stretch their tentacles across culture, their advertising has become ubiquitous. Ahead of the World Cup, Kalshi has inked partnerships with a slew of high-profile athletes and football personalities, like José Mourinho and Lionel Messi. Polymarket, for its part, was a marquee sponsor for the UFC 250 fight at the White House earlier this month. They're also currently under investigation for deceptive marketing practices (something for another podcast). But more recently, a new Polymarket spot, directed by Gabriel Moses featuring Rick Rubin, Future, and Peso Pluma, has caught people's attention. In this episode, we break down the spot, discussing the deliberate dissonance between the ad and the product, tastewashing, if these people are too hot to be gambling, why tech seems to be the only place where brand marketing is alive, and more. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode of Business Brain, we tackle a question that hits closer to home than anyone wants to admit: is AI quietly stealing your creative time the same way social media does? We dig into “faux-ductivity” — the trap of endlessly building, prompting, and tinkering in AI under the guise of getting work done, when really it’s just one more shiny barrier between you and the hard stuff that actually moves your business forward. If you’ve ever told yourself you just need to learn one more thing before you take action, this one’s for you. Then we flip the script and show AI at its best. Inspired by Rick Rubin calling himself a “reducer” instead of a producer, we walk through how feeding your real data into Claude can cut the clutter, tighten your calls to action, and lift your numbers — newsletter open rates jumping past 50% and click rates doubling, all from learning to reduce, reduce, reduce. Stop letting your tools yes-man you, start letting them challenge your gut, and you’ll find the data-cruncher in your pocket is the real secret to living the Charmed Life. 00:00:00 Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs' Podcast #765 for Casual FridAI, June 26, 2026 June 26th: National Food Truck Day Off The Grid Food Trucks Tideline Public House 00:01:32 Is AI stealing our immersive/creative/digital time?

Great to get Chris back on the podcast. He's been out of Slipknot since 2019, but he's got a lot to keep him busy. On this episode, we discuss his relationship with Black Sabbath drummer Bill Ward. "He's like another father to me. That guy's amazing." He said they talk just about every day. He tells me about his friendship with the late Phil Campbell of Motorhead, golfing with Alice Cooper, and his massive baseball card collection. What was it like playing those earlier Ozzfest gigs as Slipknot was climbing the mountain of metal success? He talks about his favorite SK album and why it's that one. My fave as well! He shares some funny Ozzy stories, drumming with the late Joey Jordison, meeting fans at comic-cons, working with the legendary Rick Rubin, and lots more. As I said, it's great to have Chris back on the pod. Enjoy!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Over the last eight years of Moonshots, we've explored the work of hundreds of authors, entrepreneurs, scientists, artists, educators, and innovators. We've studied creativity from every angle imaginable. We've looked at the habits of musicians, the methods of filmmakers, the thinking of scientists, the systems of entrepreneurs, and the practices of some of the most creative people who have ever lived.As we prepare to launch a new creativity series on Moonshots, beginning with Steven Kotler's *The Art of the Impossible*, I wanted to pause and reflect on what we've learned so far.What surprised me most wasn't how different these thinkers are. It was how often they arrived at the same conclusions.A legendary music producer, a bestselling novelist, the founder of Pixar, one of history's greatest physicists, an education visionary, and a pair of Stanford design professors all seem to be pointing toward the same set of principles.Creativity is not a gift possessed by a lucky few.It is a practice.It is a way of approaching problems, ideas, opportunities, and life itself.In this episode, I share eight creative practices that have had the biggest impact on my own work as a founder, advisor, podcaster, writer, speaker, software builder, and lifelong learner.The first lesson comes from Rick Rubin and *The Creative Act*. One of the most valuable ideas I've taken from Rick is the importance of showing up early and allowing ideas time to develop. Great work rarely appears on demand. Whenever I'm preparing a keynote, building a product, creating content, or solving a difficult client problem, I start earlier than I need to. I immerse myself in the work and then let it sit. I allow ideas to ferment. Some of my best work has emerged not from pushing harder, but from creating enough space for intuition and imagination to do their job.Elizabeth Gilbert's *Big Magic* offers another powerful reminder. Momentum is more important than perfection. I see perfectionism derail founders every week. They delay launches, delay decisions, delay customer conversations, and delay progress because they want everything to be perfect. The reality is that creative people create. They publish. They ship. They learn. Progress compounds. Perfection delays.Austin Kleon's *Show Your Work* reinforces this principle. Big achievements are usually the result of many small outputs shared consistently over time. Moonshots itself is a perfect example. The show didn't grow because of one viral episode. It grew because Mark and I showed up repeatedly for years. Small contributions, delivered consistently, eventually become meaningful bodies of work.Walt Disney reminds us to dream first and judge later. Too many ideas are destroyed before they have a chance to grow. Whether it's our own self-talk or feedback from others, premature judgement can suffocate creativity. Disney's genius was creating environments where imagination could run free before practicality entered the conversation. Creativity often requires us to suspend disbelief long enough to discover what might be possible.Ed Catmull, in *Creativity, Inc.*, extends this idea even further. He argues that unfinished ideas need safety. Great ideas rarely arrive fully formed. They emerge through discussion, experimentation, and collaboration. Teams that create psychological safety unlock more creativity because people feel comfortable sharing incomplete thoughts. Innovation depends on creating environments where ideas can evolve rather than be evaluated too early.Ken Robinson's work on *The Element* introduces one of my favourite questions. Rather than asking what your passion is, ask yourself what feels good. What activities energise you? What work absorbs your attention?

What happens when a musician completely rejects the corporate machine?In this episode of Americana Curious, Ben Fanning and Zach Schultz sit down with singer-songwriter Mason Jennings to discuss his incredible 30-year independent career.Mason opens up about why he walked away from major label record deals, what it was really like working with (and turning down) Rick Rubin, his fun connection to Prince, and his internal battle with crippling agoraphobia and panic attacks on tour.Whether you are an independent musician navigating the modern landscape of Soundcloud and AI or a fan of real, raw, road-worn music, this conversation explores what it truly means to protect your creative spirit at all costs.

Acclaimed author Simon Reynolds joins us in Hammersmith to discuss his latest book. A journey through the many bands and scenes he wrote about between 1984 and 1994, Still in a Dream gives us a chance to ask our guest about shoegaze, C86 and the book's autobiographical threads. Clips from an early 2000 Jay-Z audio interview by Dorian Lynskey prompt a general discussion of the hip hop superstar whose debut album Reasonable Doubt turns 30 this week. Jasper and William then wrap up the episode with their highlights among new additions to the RBP library, including pieces about LL Cool J (1986), Rick Rubin (2009) and Randy Newman's priceless song about Vladimir Putin (2017). Many thanks to special guest Simon Reynolds. Still In a Dream: Shoegaze, Slackers and the Reinvention of Rock, 1984–1994 is published by Hachette and available now.

Walter Murch, one of the greatest film editors who ever lived, doesn't fix bad footage. He decides what the film actually is, from hundreds of hours of raw material that could tell a dozen different stories. Rick Rubin, one of the most successful and iconic record producers in history, famously describes his role as just listening. He sits on a couch, hears what's true and what isn't, and tells the artist. Artists pay enormous sums for that. Your clients now have the camera. They have the recording equipment. AI is giving them raw material faster and cheaper than ever before. What they don't have is the ear and the eye. The judgment about what to do with all of it. In this episode, I make the case that this judgment is where your real value lives, and that it lives in two places: before the work starts, and after it's done. Both are underpriced by most writers. Both are in growing demand. What You'll Learn Why the film editor and record producer are the right mental models for where your value sits in an AI-shaped market What "upstream judgment" actually means and why writers have been giving it away for free for years The specific decisions that happen before content is created that AI genuinely cannot make well Why the demand for downstream editorial judgment is growing as AI content floods the market How to identify where your judgment is most needed inside your existing client relationships Key Ideas & Takeaways 1. Your clients have the raw material. They need the judgment. AI is making content production faster and cheaper than ever. What it's not providing is the editorial eye that decides what's worth making and what's worth keeping. That's the gap you can fill. 2. The most important decisions are made upstream. Before a word gets written, someone has to decide what's worth creating, for whom, with what angle, and why. Those decisions require context that doesn't exist in any dataset: the client's internal politics, their buyer psychology, the competitive landscape, what leadership will actually approve. That's where experienced writers have enormous value they rarely charge for. 3. You've been doing advisory work your whole career. Every time you asked a clarifying question that changed a project's direction, pushed back on a brief that didn't make sense, or flagged an angle that wouldn't land with the audience, that was advisory work. It was just embedded invisibly in your writing process. The move is to make it visible and price it separately. 4. Downstream judgment is in growing demand. The more content AI helps produce, the more critical it becomes to have someone with real editorial judgment reviewing it before it ships. Companies that skipped this step are learning the hard way what it costs to publish without a quality filter. That's a real and growing opportunity for writers who position themselves as that filter. 5. You don't have to stop writing. Moving into judgment-focused work doesn't mean giving up the craft. Most writers who've made this shift still write. They do it alongside upstream strategy work and downstream editorial review that puts them closer to the decisions where the real value lives. Action Steps Think of one current client and ask: what decisions are they making before they produce content that my experience gives me an opinion about? Ask the same client: what content are they shipping that nobody with real editorial judgment is reviewing first? Write down one upstream service you could offer this client based on what you know about their strategy, their audience, and their blind spots. Write down one downstream service based on the content quality issues you've noticed in their recent work. Pick one of those two and draft a one-paragraph description of what it would look like as a packaged offer.

David Senra: Read the notes at at podcastnotes.org. Don't forget to subscribe for free to our newsletter, the top 10 ideas of the week, every Monday --------- Rick Rubin grew up on Long Island obsessed with music — arena rock at 13, punk by high school, then hip-hop when it was still a street movement you could only hear at one club in New York City. The records coming out didn't sound like the club. They were made by professionals who didn't go to the club. So at 18, while a freshman at NYU, he made one himself — "It's Yours" with T La Rock. It sold 100,000 copies in 18 months. He put his dorm room address on the sleeve. This launched Def Jam Recordings. LL Cool J's first record came next. The Beastie Boys after that. His credit on those records didn't say "produced by." It said "reduced by" — a theological statement as much as a job title. His method has never changed: strip everything down until what remains has no place to hide, then protect whatever magic appears. He's applied it to Jay-Z, Johnny Cash, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Eminem, The Strokes, Metallica, Kanye West, Tom Petty, and many other top artists.  He describes himself as a lazy workaholic. The Zen exterior is real. So is the guy who spent the first 25 years of his career in a dark room 16 hours a day, seven days a week, waiting for a miracle to show up.

Dan & Billy welcome back longtime friend & Nostalgia Test Podcast Allstar Jeremy Madson for the final episode of the Metallica Eras journey, The Legacy Era: Death Magnetic, Hardwired...to Self-Destruct, & 72 Seasons and put them to the ultimate test—THE NOSTALGIA TEST!   “That's an interesting comparison, Metallica to The Beatles [...] The Beatles, depending on how you count them, were only around for, like, six or eight years, right? And they were hyper prolific. They put out all their shit, and that was basically Metallica from however you wanna measure it, from, from Kill 'Em All up to Black or even through Justice, right? They cranked out just, like, absolute pinnacle, God-level material. But instead of, you know, tearing each other down and going off and doing their own thing, they just decided to stick around.”  -Jeremy Madson   Dan, Billy, & Jeremy talk about the most recent albums of Metallica's long and confusing career, Death Magnetic (2008), Hardwired... to Self-Destruct (2016), and 72 Seasons (2023). They try to figure out why Metallica made these albums, if they should've stopped after Death Magnetic, Metallica's consistent cover art fails since Load, and why does Metallica insist on recording songs longer than 3.5 minutes at this point. Is Death Magnetics' mixing really a problem, especially after Saint Anger or is it just some bulls**t to complain about? Their conversation inevitably returns to the influence of Lars on the band's trajectory after the death of Cliff Burton and how the band might have imploded anyway if Cliff didn't die. At the end of the episode, and this is an epic one so hang on and hangout, the guys give their individual rankings of all the studio albums from worst to best (minus LuLu, Garage Inc, & the live albums) and Jeremy creates an aggregate scoring of all 11 albums. We hope you enjoy this final episode. Grab your concert T's, your closets Metal friends, push yourself through the pit, and let's scream our heads off together. Come chill!

DL, Evil, and Rachel dig into System of a Down's Toxicity (2001) — one of the biggest metal albums ever made, debuting at #1 the week before 9/11 and getting Chop Suey immediately pulled from radio.The central argument: Toxicity is not a nu-metal record. It's one of the most coherent political albums ever made — a sustained meditation on apathy, incarceration, the Armenian-American experience, and what happens when society stops giving a shit about each other. Prison Song, Needles, ATWA, and "somewhere between the sacred silence and sleep" hit completely different when you actually listen to what Serj Tankian is saying.Along the way: why "Chop Suey" was originally titled "Suicide" (and how the rename was pure SOAD genius), the story of Rick Rubin seeing them at the Viper Room in 1997 and immediately knowing, Daron Malakian's insistence the album fit on one side of a tape at exactly 40 minutes, the time signatures and hemiola that make Toxicity sound heavier than it should, and the direct sonic DNA connecting Faith No More's Epic piano outro to Chop Suey's ending.The influence arc: System of a Down directly cited Faith No More as a key influence — this episode is part of a two-week influence-to-influence series starting with The Real Thing.Scores: Rachel 10/10, Evil 10/10, DL 9.8/10.Part of Verse Chorus Verse's album-by-album deep dive series.System of a Down,Toxicity,Chop Suey,Serj Tankian,Daron Malakian,Rick Rubin,metal album review,Armenian rock,2001 albums,political metal,Faith No More influence,music podcast

If you've been building your expertise for years but still feel like the world's best-kept secret, this episode is going to land in a useful way. David Newman - author of Market Eminence - makes his second appearance on the show, and we get into the thinking behind what it actually means to be an expert today, how to stop sitting on your best ideas, and why the company you keep shapes the business you build.This one is for consultants, coaches, and thought leaders who are done being invisible.Three key areas we explored:✳️ Being an expert is no longer about what you know - it's about what you're curious about. David reframes expertise as an active, evolving identity built on curiosity and curation, not a static body of knowledge you've already accumulated.✳️ Giving away your best thinking is the business model, not a threat to it. Using the celebrity chef analogy, David unpacks why holding back your "secret sauce" is the thing that's actually holding you back - most people won't implement it anyway, and the ones who can tell the difference will want the restaurant.✳️ The room you're in sets the ceiling on what you think is possible. Whether it's a mastermind, a peer group, or a loose network of fellow travellers, surrounding yourself with people solving A-level problems changes what you consider normal - and that changes everything.David's Amplifiers - three things you can do right now:✳️ Go back and listen to three previous episodes of this podcast - not to tick a box, but to build your expert databank and practise the habit of learning from other experts.✳️ Listen to each episode with a curiosity lens - write down three questions or angles the conversation sparked for you. Not "do I know this?" but "what am I wondering about because of this?"✳️ Interview three people you admire - colleagues, friendly competitors, people you follow. Showcase their expertise. Promote their work. Get into the habit of featuring other experts, and you build your authority by association.Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction00:47 - Welcome and what the show is about01:47 - Introducing David Newman and Market Eminence03:03 - David's new Watch Smarts podcast and the "no commercial intent" principle07:31 - Thought leadership without being the expert - imposter syndrome unpacked08:02 - Three non-traditional definitions of what it means to be an expert12:24 - Build your platform on curiosity, not static knowledge13:27 - Rick Rubin, taste, and the value of discernment when information is free15:56 - Audience vs market vs prospects - three very different things18:34 - Treating prospects like they've already bought21:56 - Love Them in Advance - the chapter on radical generosity23:00 - Why your "secret sauce" is not as secret as you think27:20 - The cookbook metaphor and who actually goes to the restaurant29:06 - What does it take to go from capable to recognised - building the roadmap33:51 - Offer structure, gateway services, and scaling from small to large37:28 - The Kudos file - why you need one and how to use it on a bad day40:29 - Quality recognises quality - how peer groups change your identity42:22 - Connecting with fellow travellers and "friendly competitors"48:19 - Identity shapes personal brand - your internal reality creates your external one51:05 - David's three amplifiers54:49 - Wrap-up and where to find DavidIf you enjoyed this episode, follow or subscribe wherever you listen - it genuinely makes a difference.

Do not be afraid of anyone, for judgment belongs to God. Bring me any case too hard for you, and I will hear it.” 18 And at that time I told you everything you were to do.Leviticus 19:15: 15 “‘Do not pervert justice; do not show partiality to the poor or favoritism to the great, but judge your neighbor fairly.Proverbs 31:9: 9 Speak up and judge fairly;    defend the rights of the poor and needy.1 Corinthians 6:2–3: 2 Or do you not know that the Lord's people will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? 3 Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life!John 7:24: 21 Jesus said to them, “I did one miracle, and you are all amazed. 22 Yet, because Moses gave you circumcision (though actually it did not come from Moses, but from the patriarchs), you circumcise a boy on the Sabbath. 23 Now if a boy can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me for healing a man's whole body on the Sabbath? 24 Stop judging by mere appearances, but instead judge correctly.”Remember! We Must Judge Using Biblical Standards: Judgment must be based on God's revealed Word and will, rather than personal feelings or man-made rules.Regard No One In The Flesh: Following God's example in 1 Samuel 16:7, righteous judgment looks past outward appearance to the true nature of a person or situation. 2 Corinthians 5:16-1716 So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come:[a] The old has gone, the new is here!We Should Avoid Hypocrisy: Before addressing someone else's fault, believers must first examine and correct their own lives (the "log in your own eye" from Matthew 7:1–5).We Are Christ's Ambassadors and We Must Aim for Restoration: The goal of identifying sin in a fellow believer is to "restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness" (Galatians 6:1).Episode links:Elon Musk is reposting C.S. Lewis quotes NEW: Singer Gwen Stefani shares how she became a Christian, tells a story about how she gave birth in her mid-40s. JOE ROGAN: "I can't find a flaw in the way Jesus tells you to live." "I go to church. I've been doing it for the last 3-4 years. I believe if you follow Jesus Christ, you will live a better life." Jenny McCarthy Reveals She & Husband Donnie Wahlberg Have Surrendered Their Lives to Jesus; “We've surrendered. We really have given our life to the Lord and are just trusting the path, and honoring what we're here to do through him.” Incredible. Actress Nicole Kidman reveals she attended church before the Oscars “Church in the morning… That's what I do on a Sunday.” This is what matters.  Not awards—Jesus Christ. Matthew McConaughey tells Rick Rubin why he needs to go to church each Sunday and not merely practice private spirituality.  “I need that reminder each week that, at most, I'm number two.” 

Have you ever had an idea that lit you up, only to let it sit too long until the excitement faded? What if ideas aren't just random thoughts, but living energy seeking a creator? In this episode, I explore the concept that ideas don't belong to us—they choose us based on our capacity and willingness to bring them to life. But if we wait too long, we risk losing the connection, and the idea moves on to someone else. I share my own experiences with creativity, hesitation, and the moments when I've overthought ideas instead of feeling and flowing with them. We'll also dive into the paradox of creativity, inspired by Rick Rubin's The Creative Act, which reminds us that while patience is essential, we must also act with urgency before we disconnect from our inspiration. I'll walk you through how to recognize when you're overthinking and how to tune into the “knowing”—that intuitive inner guidance that tells you the next step to take. Whether you're designing, writing, or starting a new venture, learning to trust the flow of creative energy can help you bring ideas to life with clarity and confidence. If this episode resonated with you, I'd love for you to rate and review the podcast! Your feedback helps me reach more listeners and continue sharing insights on creativity, mindset, and abundance. It only takes a minute—just go to RateThisPodcast.com/ourreimaginedlife and follow the simple instructions. And remember, the best way to honor an idea is to act—imperfectly, intuitively, and with trust. I appreciate you, I see you, and I believe in the ideas waiting inside of you. Go create something today. I love you.

In this episode of Business Brain, hosts Shannon Jean and Dave Hamilton tackle two profit-protecting plays every entrepreneur needs to hear. First up: why you absolutely should be charging credit card convenience fees, plus the persistent myth that American Express costs more than Visa or Mastercard (spoiler: the math might surprise you). If you’re leaving margin on the table because you’re afraid to pass through fees, this segment is your wake-up call. Then Shannon and Dave dig into Justin Kan’s killer insight that first-time founders obsess over product while second-time founders obsess over distribution. You’ll learn why social is a rented audience, newsletters give you permission, podcasts build trust, and masterminds drive the real revenue. Mix in some Rick Rubin wisdom about the work revealing itself as you go, and you’ve got the blueprint for living the Charmed Life of a second-time thinker on your first go-around. Tune in, take notes, and start building distribution before your next product. 00:00:00 Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs' Podcast #748 for Wednesday, April 29, 2026 April 29th: National Shrimp Scampi Day 00:01:39 Make sure you charge credit card convenience fees 00:06:42 The myth that American Express costs more than Visa or Mastercard 00:11:13 SPONSOR: Intuit QuickBooks Payroll is evolving beyond pay runs to support how you hire, onboard, manage, and retain your team.

O mundo gosta de mulheres que falam o que pensam? Neste episódio de Bom Dia, Obvious, Marcela Ceribelli conversa com a atriz e escritora Maria Ribeiro sobre o que significa, para uma mulher, sustentar a própria voz em um contexto social que ainda privilegia muito as imagens, mas não tanto as vozes das mulheres. Em uma conversa descontraída, elas falam sobre a liberdade de ser quem se é, relacionamentos, filhos, casamento, sexo, exposição, erros e o exercício de dizer não. Um episódio sobre as dores e as delícias de bancar os próprios desejos. ⁠⁠Para receber em primeira mão a pré-venda do Clube do Livro, clique aqui.Nos acompanhe também: Marcela Ceribelli no Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@marcelaceribelli⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram da Obvious: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@obvious.cc⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok da Obvious: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@obvious.cc⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chapadinhas de Endorfina: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@chapadinhasdeendorfina⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ouça também, outros podcasts da Obvious:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podcast Chapadinhas de Endorfina.doc⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podcast Academia do Prazer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Livros da Marcela Ceribelli:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sintomas — e o que mais aprendi quando o amor me decepcionou⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: AQUI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Aurora: O despertar da mulher exausta⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: AQUIInstagram de Maria Ribeiro: AQUI Livros de Maria Ribeiro: AQUI Livro de Rick Rubin, citado por Marcela Ceribelli no episódio: AQUI

Ryan and Becca return with another chapter of the Wheel Talk Podcast book club, exploring The Creative Act: A Way of Being by Rick Rubin. Joined once again by Taylor Swilley, they reflect on the book's perspective of creativity as a way of being, discussing awareness, intuition, and making work without attachment to outcomes, and how those ideas translate or don't translate into their own studio practices, creative decision-making, and running a ceramics business.Our next book club selection will be announced in the coming months and released in the next season. See all the books we've covered on Becca's Amazon list at https://amzn.to/3X5yZOX

Michael Rueckert was a ski resort marketing director who got curious about a simple question: when someone asks an AI where to ski, does Snow Basin show up? That curiosity led him down a rabbit hole that eventually became Centium AI, a platform now working with over 170 outdoor brands to help them understand and improve their visibility across every major AI model. In this conversation, Michael and Aaron dig into how ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity each "think" differently about outdoor brands, why landing a GearLab ranking may now be worth more than any paid search campaign, and what it means for marketing when AI starts making purchasing decisions on behalf of humans. They also go deep on the practical side — how to set up Claude projects as a creative co-pilot, why taste is still the irreducible human advantage in an AI world, and why the outdoor industry is actually better positioned than most for what's coming.

The nominations are in, the debates are loud, and the nerdiness is dialed all the way up—because this special episode of Friends Talking Nerdy is all about the 2026 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees!Join Professor Aubrey and Tim The Nerd as they break down this year's class with the perfect blend of deep music knowledge, passionate opinions, and just enough playful chaos to keep things interesting. From genre-defining pioneers to long-overdue legends, nothing is off-limits as they react to one of the most diverse induction classes in recent memory.They dive headfirst into the cultural impact and legacy of icons like Celia Cruz and Fela Kuti, celebrating the global influence that continues to shape modern music. Hip-hop gets its due as the duo discusses the groundbreaking careers of Queen Latifah, MC Lyte, and the legendary Wu-Tang Clan—and whether the Hall is finally catching up to the culture.Rock purists, don't worry—they've got you covered. Expect passionate takes (and maybe a few friendly arguments) about the inclusion of Oasis, Iron Maiden, Billy Idol, and the influential legacy of Joy Division / New Order. And yes, they absolutely get into the solo success and enduring popularity of Phil Collins—because you can't talk Hall of Fame without a little drum fill discourse.But it's not just about performers. Professor Aubrey and Tim The Nerd shine a spotlight on the behind-the-scenes legends who helped shape the sound of generations, including Linda Creed, Arif Mardin, Jimmy Miller, and Rick Rubin. Plus, they unpack the legacy of television pioneer Ed Sullivan and his massive influence on bringing rock and pop into living rooms across America.Of course, the conversation wouldn't be complete without honoring unforgettable voices like Luther Vandross and Sade, as well as country-rock trailblazer Gram Parsons, whose influence far outweighs his commercial success.And because this is Friends Talking Nerdy, there's a competitive twist: back in February, both hosts made their own Hall of Fame picks. Now, they revisit those predictions to see who nailed it—and who swung and missed like a drummer losing the beat mid-solo.Packed with hot takes, surprising insights, music history deep dives, and the kind of chemistry that makes every episode feel like you're hanging out with friends, this special is a must-listen for any music fan who's ever argued about what really belongs in the Rock Hall.As always, we wish to thank Christopher Lazarek for his wonderful theme song.
